DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Business Development
We have commenced operations as an exploration stage company. We are engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties with a view to exploiting any mineral deposits we discover. We own a 100% interest in four mineral claims known as the Vet 1 - 4 claims, which are located in the west-central area of the State of Nevada, approximately 30 air miles west of the town of Tonopah. We purchased these claims from Western Minerals Inc.
There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on the Vet 1 - 4 claims. We do not have any current plans to acquire interests in additional mineral properties, though we may consider such acquisitions in the future.
Mineral property exploration is typically conducted in phases. Each subsequent phase of exploration work is recommended by a geologist based on the results from the most recent phase of exploration. We have completed the initial phase of the recommended exploration program on the Vet 1 - 4 claims, which program was carried out from October through early December 2008 at a cost of $8,000. Now that we have completed the first phase of exploration, we will make a decision as to whether or not we proceed with the next phase based upon our analysis of the results of that program. Our director will make this decision based upon the recommendations of the independent geologist who oversees the program and records the results.Our independent geologist is Mr. James W. McLeod.
Our plan of operation is to continue exploration work on the Vet 1 - 4 claims, subject to review of the results from the first phase of exploration, in order to ascertain whether they possess economic quantities of gold. There can be no assurance that an economic mineral deposit exists on the Vet 1 - 4 claims until appropriate exploration work is completed.
Even if we complete our proposed exploration programs on the Vet 1 - 4 claims and we are successful in identifying a mineral deposit, we will have to spend substantial funds on further drilling and engineering studies before we will know if we have a commercially viable mineral deposit.
Vet 1 – 4 Mineral Claims Purchase
On July 20, 2008, we entered into a Mineral Property Staking and Purchase Agreement with Western Mineral Inc. whereby we purchased a 100% interest in the Vet 1 – 4 mineral claims for $3,500.
Description, Location and Access
The Vet property lies in the west central area of the State of Nevada west of the town of Tonopah and is accessible from Highway 95 by traveling west of the town for 33.5 miles and turning north on a gravel road 0.5 miles before Blair Junction or the Silver Peak cutoff (Nevada Highway 265). Go north for 1 mile to a fork in the road, stay to the left (north) for I mile to the mineral claims.
Title to the Vet 1 - 4 claims
The Vet 1 - 4 claims consist of four minerals claim comprising 82.64 acres. A “mineral claim” refers to a specific section of land over which a title holder owns rights to explore the ground and subsurface, and extract minerals.
5
Claims details are as follows:
| | |
Claim Name | Area | Expiry Date |
Vet 1 | 20.66 ac | September 1, 2010 |
Vet 2 | 20.66 ac | September 1, 2010 |
Vet 3 | 20.66 ac | September 1, 2010 |
Vet 4 | 20.66 ac | September 1, 2010 |
Geological Report
We have obtained a geological report on the Vet 1 - 4 claims that was prepared by James W. McLeod. James W. McLeod obtained a degree of Bachelor of Science in Geology from the University of British Columbia in 1969. The geological report summarizes details concerning the Vet 1 - 4 claims and makes a recommendation for further exploration work.
Glossary
In this section, the following geological terms have the indicated meaning:
Alluvial - unconsolidated sediments that are carried and hence deposited by a stream or river. In the southwest USA most in filled valleys often between mountain ranges were deposited with alluvium.
Andesitic– a fine-grained extrusive igneous rock composed mainly of plagioclase;
Colluvium - loose, unconsolidated material usually derived by gravitational means, such as falling from a cliff or scarp-face and often due to a sort of benign erosion such as heating and cooling in a desert environment.
Desert wash - out-wash in dry (desert) or arid areas of colluvium or alluvial material accumulated on the sides of valleys or basin channels by often irregular and violent water flow, i.e. flash floods.
Igneous or intrusive rock - usually a medium to coarser grain sized crystalline rock that generally is derived from a sub-surface magma and then consolidated, such as in dykes, plugs, stocks or batholiths, from smallest to largest.
Intermontane basin - between mountains (ranges), a usually longer than wide depression occurring between enclosing mountain ranges that supply the erosional material to infill the basin.
Metamorphic – rock formed when igneous or sedimentary rock is changed by pressure, heat or chemical reactions;
Plagioclase – any of a common rock forming series of triclinic feldspars, consisting of mixtures of sodium and calcium aluminum silicates;
Playa - the lowest part of an intermontane basin which is frequently flooded by run-off from the adjacent highlands or by local rainfall.
Reverse fault – a fault with vertical movement and an inclined fault plan;
Sedimentary – rock formed by layers of material that has accumulated and hardened over time; from
Tertiary – the first period of the Cenozoic Era characterized by the rise of mammals;
6
Thrust fault – a reverse fault that has a dip of less than 45 degrees; and
Volcanic – structures, activities and rock types associated with volcanic eruptions.
Geological Setting and Mineralization
Regional Geology
The regional geology of Nevada is depicted as being underlain by all major types of rock units. These appear to range from oldest to youngest in an east to west direction, respectively. The oldest units are found to occur in the southeast corner of the State along the Colorado River. The bedrock units exhibit a north-south fabric of alternating east-west ranges and valleys. This feature suggests W to E compression that has expression through low angle thrust faulting and bringing the older rock units into contact with the younger units as a detached assemblage. Faulting plays a large part in many areas of Nevada and an even larger part in the emplacement of mineral occurrences and ore bodies.
The geology of Esmeralda County has been recognized to contain three unconformable assemblages; the older sedimentary and metamorphic units with a mid-aged sedimentary and igneous assemblage and the youngest volcanic-sedimentary assemblage. These major divisions are divided by unconformities, i.e. periods of age that are not represented or erosion gaps in the record.
Local Geology
The local geology within the Weepah area appears to be represented by the older meta-sedimentary contacting with the younger Jurassic aged intrusive rock units. The youngest post-plutonic assemblage occurs about the older rock units. Thrust faulting is evident in the area and may offer exploration potential.
Tertiary age volcano-sediments and ash fall tuff units are abundant on the west side of the Weepah hills. Much of the area has very young unconsolidated cover on the flanks of many of the hills and older stream courses.
Property Geology
The property area is observed to be covered by Quaternary age desert wash, collovium, alluvium and playa deposits.
This young covered south sloping area occurs near larger adjacent areas of rock exposure and known mineral occurrences on the northern flank of the colluvial apron that exhibits a good geological setting and an excellent target area in which to conduct mineral exploration.
Thrust faulting is evident within adjacent rock exposure areas near the north side of the mineral claims. Many more areas exhibiting thrusting are evident on the flanks of the alluvial covered valleys particularly on the north-east and south sides of the Monte Cristo Range mineral occurrences and structurally prepared bedrock should be sought after in those areas.
Exploration History
The recorded mining history of the general area dates from the 1860's when prospectors passed through heading north and west. The many significant lode gold, silver and other mineral product deposits developed in the area was that of the Weepah camp of silver-gold discoveries about 1904, the Goldfield Camp, 1905; Coaldale, coal field, 1913; Divide Silver Mining District, 1921, the Gilbert Camp in 1924 and the Candalaria silver-gold mine, which operated as an underground lode gold deposit in 1922 and again in the 1990's as an open cut, cyanide heap leach operation.
7
The Vet 1-4 mineral property could not be found in the historical record in what is referred to as the South Gilbert area on the Gilbert Junction access road. The general area may have received prospecting attention during the early days because of the property location and favorable geological setting in an area of known silver, gold, base metal and industrial mineral occurrences.
Recommendations
Based on his review of geological information relating to the Vet 1 - 4 claims, Mr. McLeod recommends prospecting, mapping and a reconnaissance geochemical soil survey of the claim area. The following two phase exploration proposal and cost estimate has been recommended, with the consecutive exploration phase being contingent upon positive results being obtained from the preceding phase:
Phase 1 - Completed
From late October until early December 2008 we carried out the first phase of the recommended exploration program, at a cost of $8,000. The program consisted of detailed prospecting, mapping and MMI soil geochemistry.
In his 2008 Fieldwork Summary Report dated December 9, 2008, Mr. McLeod advised as follows:
A number of mobile metal ion (MMI) soil samples and subsequent IONIC leach analyses were found to be anomalous in the gold exploration suite (GES). The GES is composed of the elements cobalt, gold, nickel, palladium and silver.
The objective of the initial exploration undertaking was to assess areas that may require more detailed investigations to assist in determining their economic significance. The IONIC leach data obtained from the initial exploration work exhibit a number of possibly anomalous areas.
The analytical results were subjected to a statistical analysis. The statistical results obtained from the data allowed representation in the form of percentage distribution histograms for a variety of elements and particularly groups or suites of elements that are often found to occur together in ore situations and may be coincident in a variety of mineralogical settings. The table summarizes the results for the GES comprised of cobalt, gold, nickel, palladium and silver, as this is the suite that exhibited a number of coincident anomalous samples that are summarized as follows:
Element
Anomalous
Sample Number
(ppb)
Cobalt
≥8.2
(8), 10, 11, (17), 23, (24)
Gold
≥0.84
14, 16, 17, (21), (24), (28), (33)
Nickel
≥35
8, (10), (23), 24, (25), 32, 35
Palladium
≥0.18
12, 23, 24
Silver
≥9.9
(8), (25), (28), (30), (32), (33), 35, 38, (39)
Arsenic
≥17
10, 17, 21
Although arsenic is not generally included in the GES it is here because it appears to be anomalous and somewhat coincidently with cobalt, gold and nickel.
This may indicate the detection of an underlying arsenical gold occurrence, such as arsenopyrite (gold-bearing arsenic sulphide) that quite commonly occurs in the general area.
8
Recommendations
The IONIC leach soil data displayed in the exhibits anomalous behavior in the GES and arsenic. The anomalous groups of values may be worthwhile undergoing fill-in soil sampling with minor replication to test for repeatability and the possibility of a sample value pattern developing.
Phase 2
Magnetometer and VLF electromagnetic or other geophysical grid-controlled surveys over the areas of interest determined by the Phase 1 survey. This program is expected to take one month to complete. Included in this estimated cost is transportation, accommodation, board, grid installation, the geophysical surveys, maps and report for an estimated cost of $9,000.
Management anticipates that this next phase of exploration will coincide with the financing needed to complete that phase, anticipated, but not assured, within the next four months.
Compliance with Government Regulation
We will be required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of governmental authorities and agencies applicable to the exploration of minerals in the United States generally, and in Nevada specifically.
We will have to sustain the cost of reclamation and environmental mediation for all exploration and development work undertaken. The amount of these costs is not known at this time as we do not know the extent of the exploration program that will be undertaken beyond completion of the currently planned work programs. Because there is presently no information on the size, tenor, or quality of any resource or reserve at this time, it is impossible to assess the impact of any capital expenditures on earnings or our competitive position in the event a potentially economic deposit is discovered.
If we enter into production, the cost of complying with permit and regulatory environment laws will be greater than in the exploration phases because the impact on the project area is greater. Permits and regulations will control all aspects of any production program if the project continues to that stage because of the potential impact on the environment. Examples of regulatory requirements include:
-
Water discharge will have to meet water standards;
-
Dust generation will have to be minimal or otherwise re-mediated;
-
Dumping of material on the surface will have to be re-contoured and re-vegetated;
-
An assessment of all material to be left on the surface will need to be environmentally benign;
-
Ground water will have to be monitored for any potential contaminants;
-
The socio-economic impact of the project will have to be evaluated and if deemed negative, will have to be re-mediated; and
-
There will have to be an impact report of the work on the local fauna and flora.
Because there will not be any appreciable disturbance to the land during the phase one and phase two exploration programs on the Vet property, we will not have to seek any government approvals prior to conducting exploration.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Forward-looking statements
This report contains "forward-looking statements" relating to us which represent our current expectations or beliefs, including statements concerning our operations, performance, financial condition and growth. For this purpose, any statement contained in this report that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as "may", "anticipation", "intend", "could", "estimate", or "continue" or the negative or other comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, such as credit losses, dependence on management and key personnel and variability of quarterly results, our ability to continue our growth strategy and competition, cer tain of which are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes and results could differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the information set forth in our audited financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2009.
11
Plan of Operation
As at September 30, 2009, we had a cash balance of $581. In order to meet our budgeted cash requirements over the next 12 months, we anticipate raising money from equity financing from the sale of our common stock, additional shareholder loan commitments and/or the sale of part of our interest in our mineral claims.
If we are not successful in raising additional financing, we anticipate that we will not be able to proceed with our business plan. In such a case, we may decide to discontinue our current business plan and seek other business opportunities in the resource sector. Any business opportunity would require our management to perform diligence on possible acquisition of additional resource properties. Such due diligence would likely include purchase investigation costs, such as professional fees by consulting geologists, preparation of geological reports on the properties, conducting title searches and travel costs for site visits. Our current cash on hand will not be sufficient to acquire any resource property and additional funds will be required to close any possible acquisition. As a reporting company we will need to maintain our periodic filings with the appropriate regulatory authorities and will incur legal and acc ounting costs. If no other such opportunities are available and we cannot raise additional capital to sustain minimum operations, we may be forced to discontinue business. We do not have any specific alternative business opportunities in mind and have not planned for any such contingency.
Based on the nature of our business, we anticipate incurring operating losses in the foreseeable future. We base this expectation, in part, on the fact that very few mineral claims in the exploration stage ultimately develop into producing, profitable mines. Our future financial results are also uncertain due to a number of factors, some of which are outside our control. These factors include the following:
Ÿ
our ability to raise additional funding;
Ÿ
the market price for minerals that may be found on the Vet 1 - 4 mineral claims;
Ÿ
the results of our proposed exploration programs on the mineral property; and
Ÿ
our ability to find joint venture partners for the development of our property interests
Due to our lack of operating history and present inability to generate revenues, our auditors have stated their opinion that there currently exists substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Results of Operations
We have had no operating revenues since our inception on July 26, 2007 through September 30, 2009, and have incurred operating expenses in the amount of $68,321 for the same period. Our activities have been financed from the proceeds of share subscriptions and shareholder advances.
For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009, general and administrative expenses were $50,775 and mineral exploration expenses were $800. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008, general and administrative expenses were $13,246 and mineral exploration expenses were $3,500.
In their report on our audited financial statements as at September 30, 2009, our auditors expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern unless we are able to raise additional capital and ultimately to generate profitable operations.
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We have expensed all development costs related to our establishment.
12
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had cash of $581 as of September 30, 2009, compared to a cash position of $12,994 at September 30, 2008. Since inception through to and including September 30, 2009, we have raised $33,900 through private placements of our common shares and we have received shareholder advances of $35,002.
We expect to operate at a loss for at least the next twelve months. We have no agreements for additional financing and cannot provide any assurance that additional funding will be available to finance our operations on acceptable terms in order to enable us to complete our plan of operations. There are no assurances that we will be able to achieve further sales of our common stock or any other form of additional financing. If we are unable to achieve the financing necessary to continue our plan of operations, then we will not be able to continue our exploration of our mineral claims and our venture will fail.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements including arrangements that would affect our liquidity, capital resources, market risk support and credit risk support or other benefits.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors of
Dafoe Corp.
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Carson City, Nevada
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Dafoe Corp. (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from July 26, 2007 (inception) through September 30, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles us ed and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Dafoe Corp. as of September 30, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then and for the period from July 26, 2007 (inception) through September 30, 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company's absence of significant revenues, recurring losses from operations, and its need for additional financing in order to fund its projected loss in 2010 raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The 2009 financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Item 9.
Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
There have been no changes in or disagreements with our accountants on accounting and financial disclosure from the inception of our company through to the date of this Report.
Item 9A(T).
Controls and Procedures.
(a)
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Based upon an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures performed by our management, with participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, and our Chief Accounting Officer as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, and our Chief Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures have not been effective as a result of a weakness in the design of internal control over financial reporting identified below.
As used herein, “disclosure controls and procedures” mean controls and other procedures of our company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b)
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) under theSecurities Exchange Act of 1934. Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Accounting Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on our evaluation under the framework, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2009.
In connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2009 certain internal control weaknesses became evident that, in the aggregate, represent material weaknesses, including: (i) lack of segregation of incompatible duties; and (ii) insufficient Board of Directors representation.
These weaknesses are due to our lack of working capital to hire additional staff during the period covered by this report. Although management will periodically re-evaluate this situation, at this point it considers that the risk associated with such lack of segregation of duties and the potential benefits of adding employees to segregate such duties are not cost justified. We intend to hire additional accounting personnel to assist with financial reporting as soon as our finances will allow.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

(c)
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in our internal controls or in other factors that occurred during our last fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B.
Other Information.

Thereafter, directors will be elected for one-year terms at the annual stockholders' meeting. Officers will hold their positions at the pleasure of the board of directors, absent any employment agreement, of which none currently exists or is contemplated.

Conflicts of Interest
We do not have any written procedures in place to address conflicts of interest that may arise between our business and the future business activities of Mr. Beddome.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
Mr. Beddome is our sole director and does not qualify as an “audit committee financial expert.” We believe that the cost related to retaining such a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because we are in the start-up stage of our business operations, we believe that the services of an audit committee financial expert are not warranted at this time.

Our directors are elected at the annual meeting of the stockholders and serve until their successors are elected or appointed. Officers are appointed by the Board of Directors and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors or until their earlier resignation or removal.
As we have only one director and executive officer, there are no arrangements or understandings pursuant to which a director or executive officer was selected to be a director or executive officer.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a Code of Ethics within the meaning of Item 406(b) of Regulation S-K of theSecurities Exchange Act of 1934. The Code of Ethics applies to directors and senior officers, such as the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, controller, and persons performing similar functions.

Unless otherwise indicated, the persons named below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares beneficially owned by them, subject to community property laws where applicable.
| | | |
Title of Class | Name of Beneficial Owner | Amount of Beneficial Ownership | Percent Owned(1) |
Common Stock | Kyle Beddome | 31,500,000 | 53.5% |
Common Stock | All directors and executive officers as a group (one individual) | 31,500,000 | 53.5% |

Accordingly, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same security.
