Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements
April 30, 2011 and October 31, 2010
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying condensed interim financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at April 30, 2011, and for all periods presented herein, have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's October 31, 2010 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the periods ended April 30, 2011 and 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The Company's financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. The Company has had no revenues, generated a net loss of $23,889 during the six months ended April 30, 2011 and has generated an accumulated deficit from inception on May 17, 2007 through April 30, 2011 of $87,537.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management's plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued since the last audit of our financial statements. The Company’s management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Various general and administrative expenses of the Company as well as loans for operating purposes have been paid for or made by a related party of the Company. The related party payable totaled $21,608 on July 21, 2010. On that date, the Company issued 6,482,400 shares of its par value $0.001 common stock for $0.0033 per share in exchange for the related party debt. At April 30, 2011, the Company had $31,958 due to related parties. The liability is non interest bearing, unsecured and due upon demand.
NOTE 5 – CAPITAL STOCK
On November 10, 2010, the Company filed a Certificate of Change Pursuant to NRS 78.209 (the “Certificate”) with the Nevada Secretary of State providing for the designation of a 15-for-1 forward stock split of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. After the split, the Company had 38,582,400 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The effect of the stock split has been retroactively applied to the Company’s financial statements.
NOTE 5 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In accordance with ASC 855-10 Company management reviewed all material events through the date of this report. There are no material subsequent events to report.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.
Overview
We are an exploration stage company that intends to engage in the exploration of mineral properties. We were incorporated on May 17, 2007, under the laws of the State of Nevada. On June 1, 2007, we acquired an option to purchase a 100% interest in the Sallus Creek mineral claims, located in the Lillooet Mining District of the Province of British Columbia. Exploration of the Sallus Creek mineral claims is required before a final determination as to their viability can be made. Our option on this property is currently unexercised. In the event that we do not exercise our option, we will have no interest in the Sallus Creek mineral claims and will not be entitled to receive back any monies spent to maintain the option.
Plan of Operation
Our plan of operations is to proceed with the exploration of the Sallus Creek mineral claims to determine whether there are commercially exploitable reserves of copper, molybdenum, and other metallic minerals. We have entered into a Mining Option Agreement regarding the Sallus Creek mineral claims and intend to proceed with the initial exploration program as recommended by our consulting geologist.
Our total expenditures over the next twelve months, excluding costs associated with being a public company, are anticipated to be approximately $60,000 as we undertake Phase I exploration. Specifically, we expect to incur approximately $28,000 in connection with the commencement of Phase I of our recommended geological work program, as follows:
Phase I | Exploration Expenditure |
Geological supervision | $7,500 |
Helper | 2,500 |
Vehicle | 1,250 |
Food, lodging, or camp costs | 1,250 |
Field, camp supplies | 500 |
Helicopter | 6,250 |
Samples | 1,875 |
Mob and Demob | 500 |
Cell Phone/Radio | 100 |
Reports and Drafting | 2,000 |
Reclamation Bond | 0 |
Subtotal (Rounded) | 24,000 |
GST at 6% | 1,400 |
Contingency 10% | 2,400 |
Total Phase I (Rounded) | $28,000 |
In US (at 01/31/10) | $28,000 |
We will also expend C$3,000 in connection with the Option Agreement and monies due to Mr. McClaren prior to December 31, 2011, also approximately US $4,000. If our results justify continuing on to phase II of our exploration program, we will have to spend an additional Cdn$15,000 in exploration work before December 31, 2011. We had negative working capital in the amount of $32,429 as of April 30, 2011. This figure is insufficient to cover our anticipated expenditures in the next twelve months. However, our working capital, along with our plan to raise equity financing in the amount of $60,000 to $80,000, should be enough to cover the approximately $60,000 in anticipated expenditures in the next twelve months. Any remaining monies will be carried forward to the foloowing year. Because of the uncertainties inherent in foreign currency exchange rates, there are uncertainties in our operational costs. Our accounting is in US$ while our Option Agreement payments and other expenses generally require payment in CAN$.
In the event the results of our initial exploration program prove not to be sufficiently positive to proceed with further exploration on the Sallus Creek mineral claims, we intend to seek out and acquire interests in other North American mineral exploration properties, which, in the opinion of our consulting geologist, offer attractive mineral exploration opportunities. If we are unable locate and acquire such prospects, we may be forced to seek other business opportunities. Presently, we have not given any consideration to the acquisition of other exploration properties
Purchase of Significant Equipment
We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment over the next twelve months.

We have no employees other than our president and CEO, Mr. Friberg, and our Secretary and Treasurer, Mr. Decker. We intend to conduct our business largely through agreements with consultants and other independent third party vendors.
Results of Operations for the three months ended April 30, 2011 and 2010
We did not earn any revenues from inception through the period ending April 30, 2011. We do not anticipate earning revenues until such time that we are able to locate and exploit commercial reserves of copper, molybdenum, and other metallic minerals. We are presently in the exploration stage of our business and we can provide no assurance that we will discover commercially exploitable levels of mineral resources on the Sallus Creek mineral properties, or if such resources are discovered, that we will enter into commercial production.
We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $11,576 for the three months ended April 30, 2011 and $4,149 for the three months ended April 30, 2010. The operating expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2011 consisted of general and administrative expenses in the amount of $11,576. The operating expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2010 included general and administrative expenses in the amount of $4,149.
We anticipate our operating expenses will increase as we undertake our plan of operations. The increase will be attributable to undertaking the additional phases of our geological exploration program and the professional fees associated with our becoming a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
We incurred a net loss of $11,576 and $4,149 for the three months ended April 30, 2011 and 2010. Our losses for all periods are attributable to operating expenses and our lack of revenue.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had cash of $1,029 as our only current asset as of April 30, 2011. We had current liabilities of $33,458 as of April 30, 2011. We therefore had working capital deficit of $32,429 as of April 30, 2011.
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue exploration activities. For these reasons our auditors stated in their report that they have substantial doubt we will be able to continue as a going concern.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of April 30, 2011, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.
Going Concern
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue exploration activities. For these reasons our auditors stated in their report that they have substantial doubt we will be able to continue as a going concern.
Not required.
We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of January 31, 2011. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Steve Friberg. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of April 30, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to the lack of sufficient segregation of duties and an audit committee. There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended April 30, 2011. The Company has plans to address the material weaknesses in internal control as the Company becomes profitable and as capital becomes available.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding. We are not aware of any pending legal proceeding to which any of our officers, directors, or any beneficial holders of 5% or more of our voting securities are adverse to us or have a material interest adverse to us.
