NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

OCTOBER 31, 2013

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Description of Business

Gold and GemStone Mining Inc. (formerly Global GSM Solutions, Inc.) (“the Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, U.S. on March 5, 2008.  

On April 24, 2012, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to change the name of the Company to Gold and GemStone Mining Inc. The Company's principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources.

Exploration Stage Company

The Company is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 915, Development Stage Entities.

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.  

Accounting Basis

The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” accounting).  The Company has adopted a January 31 fiscal year end.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had $0 and $0 of cash as of October 31, 2013 and January 31, 2013 respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, bank overdrafts, accrued expenses, accrued interest and shareholder loans. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method.  Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws.  A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

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 the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when products are fully delivered or services have been provided and collection is reasonably assured.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 718.  To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.

Basic Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common stock equivalents outstanding as of October 31, 2013.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Comprehensive Income

The Company has which established standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances.  When applicable, the Company would disclose this information on its Statement of Stockholders’ Equity.  Comprehensive income comprises equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company has not had any significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income.

Derivative financial instruments

FASB ASC subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, Contracts in Entity’s own Equity (“ASC 815-40”) became effective for the Company on October 1, 2009. The Company has derivative liabilities resulting from the issuance of certain convertible debt, which were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using an option pricing model, consistent with level 3 inputs. See Note 5.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.  The Company has a working capital deficit, has not yet received revenues from sales of products or services, and has incurred losses since inception. Further losses are anticipated in the development of our business raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand and loans from directors and or private placement of common stock.

NOTE 7 - COMMITMENTS

The Company neither owns nor leases any real or personal property. An officer has provided office services without charge.  There is no obligation for the officer to continue this arrangement.  Such costs are immaterial to the financial statements and accordingly are not reflected herein.  The officers and directors are involved in other business activities and most likely will become involved in other business activities in the future.

On May 4, 2012, the Company entered into a collaboration agreement (the “JV Agreement”) with Ridgeback Mining (Sierra Leone) Limited (“RMSL”) regarding a joint venture on three prospective diamond and gold properties in Sierra Leone (the “Properties”). Pursuant to the JV Agreement, the Company has initiated the incorporation of Gold and Gemstone Sierra Leone Limited, a Sierra Leone company (the “JV Company”). The shares capital of the JV Company is distributed equally between our company and the shareholders of RMSL, with our company holding fifty percent and profits will be distributed evenly as well. Pursuant to the terms of the JV Agreement, RMSL will transfer the Properties into JV Company and we will provide ongoing financing for all joint venture operations. Our investment into the JV Company is required to reach $1,500,000 per concession for an aggregate total of $4,500,000 within the first twelve months of operation. Two of the three concessions (the Sandia Concession and the Nyamundu concession) were assigned in to the JV Company on October 22, 2012. If we do not invest the required $1,500,000 per concession by October 31, 2013, each concession for which the requirement was not fulfilled will be returned to the ownership of RMSL. At this time the third concession (the Kambaya Concession) has not been assigned by RMSL in to the JV Company and therefore there is no commitment to raise the $1,500,000 until 12 months after it has been assigned to the JV Company.

NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES

As of October 31, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $364,000 that may be available to reduce future years’ taxable income in varying amounts through 2033. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these tax loss carry-forwards.

The provision for Federal income tax consists of the following for the nine months ended October 31, 2013 and 2012:

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this quarterly report.

As used in this quarterly report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our” and “our company” mean Gold and GemStone Mining Inc., unless otherwise indicated.

General Overview

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on March 5, 2008 under the name Global GSM Solutions Inc. We established a fiscal year end of January 31. We do not have revenues, have minimal assets and have incurred losses since inception. Our company was originally formed to develop, manufacture, and distribute our product and services which related to the remote monitoring of amusement and vending devices. Our product was intended to improve security, productivity, and profitability of devices such as arcade games, toy dispensing machines, redemption games and vending machines. We were not able to raise sufficient capital to carry out our business plan and our management changed our focus to acquiring operating assets or businesses. On May 4, 2012, we entered into a collaboration agreement (the “JV Agreement”) and changed our business to that of mineral exploration.

Our common stock was initially approved for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “GGSM” on December 27, 2010. On April 24, 2012, we filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State to change our name from Global GSM Solutions Inc. to Gold and GemStone Mining Inc. and to increase our authorized capital from 75,000,000 to 400,000,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001. These amendments became effective on April 30, 2012 upon approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). Also effective April 30, 2012, our issued and outstanding shares of common stock increased from 7,350,000 to 330,750,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001, pursuant to a 1 old for 45 new forward split of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. On May 4, 2012 our company’s majority shareholders took a number of actions to reconfigure our capital structure. Our former directors and officers, Gennady Fedosov and Anna Ivashenko cancelled an aggregate of 180,000,000 shares of our common stock and transferred an additional 88,000,000 to incoming management. Subsequent to all cancellations and transfers, we had 150,750,000 shares issued and outstanding. As of December 15, 2013, we had 323,385,442 shares outstanding.

We have not been involved in any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings, nor have we been a party to any material reclassification, merger, consolidation or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of our business, other than as set out in this filing.

Our Current Business

On May 4, 2012, we entered into a collaboration agreement (the “JV Agreement”) with Ridgeback Mining (Sierra Leone) Limited (“RMSL”) regarding a joint venture on three prospective diamond and gold properties in Sierra Leone. Pursuant to the JV Agreement, on March 22, 2012, we incorporated of Gold and Gemstone S. L. Limited, a Sierra Leone company (the “JV Company”). The share capital of the JV Company is distributed equally between our company and the shareholders of RMSL, with our company holding 50%. Profits will be distributed evenly as well. Pursuant to the terms of the JV Agreement, RMSL will transfer the properties into JV Company and we will provide ongoing financing for all joint venture operations. Our investment into the JV Company is required to reach $1,500,000 per concession for an aggregate total of $4,500,000 within the first twelve months of operation. Two of the three concessions (the Sandia Concession and the Nyamundu concession) were assigned in to the JV Company on October 22, 2012. If we do not invest the required $1,500,000 per concession within the first twelve months, each concession for which the requirement was not fulfilled will be returned to the ownership of RMSL. At this time the third concession (the Kambaya Concession) has not been assigned by RMSL in to the JV Company and therefore there is no commitment to raise the $1,500,000 until 12 months after it has been assigned to the JV Company.

Also on May 4, 2012, we accepted the resignation from Geoffrey Dart as our sole director and officers and accepted the consents to act of Charmaine King, Timothy Cocker and Tom Tucker. Ms. King was appointed as president, chief executive officer, chief financial officer, secretary, treasurer and as a director of our company. Mr. Cocker was appointed as our chief marketing officer and as a member of our board of directors, and Mr. Tucker was appointed as our vice president of African mining operations as well as a member of our board of directors. Mr. Cocker and Mr. Tucker have subsequently resigned from all of their positions on January 16, 2013 and January 17, 2013, respectively.

On November 1, 2013, Charmaine King resigned as Director, President and CEO, while remaining our Chief Financial Officer. Rafael A Pinedo was appointed as the sole Director and elected President, Chief Executive Officer, and Secretary.

As of October 22, 2012, RMSL notified both the Nimikoro Chiefdom and the Nimiyama Chiefdom that RMSL has assigned the respective concession in to the JV Company effective October 29, 2012. The notice confirmed that we will have 12 months from the date of the assignment to raise $1,500,000 for each concession in to the JV Company or the concessions will revert back to RMSL. We have not raised such funds and as a result the concessions reverted back to RMSL.

On November 28, 2012, we entered into two separate agreements for the exploration and development of mineral properties in Africa. The agreements are summarized as follows:

1.  Joint venture agreement between our company and TTM Global Enterprises Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of the U.K. This agreement relates to the investment by our company into a 30% interest in mining operations in Siguiri, Guinea, Africa. The term of the agreement is 90 days, within which we are required to provide financing of $1,500,000 and take on the financial responsibilities for all administrative fees associated with operations on the property. Of the $1,500,000, $250,000 is a fee to TTM Global for acquiring the 30% interest in the property. The $250,000 is to be delivered to TTM Global within 30 days of signing the TTM Global joint venture agreement and the remaining $1,250,000 must be provided within 90 days.

2.  Joint venture agreement between our company and Blue Orange Mining Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Ghana. This agreement relates to the investment by our company into a 50% interest in thirteen gold concessions within the “Ashanti-belt” in Ghana. The term of the agreement is 90 days, within which we are required to provide financing of $5,000,000 towards the joint venture. Of the $5,000,000, $500,000 is a fee payable to Blue Orange for acquiring the 50% interest in the concessions. The $500,000 is to be delivered to Blue Orange within 30 days of signing the Blue Orange joint venture and the remaining $4,500,000 must be provided within 90 days.

We were unable to fulfill our payment obligations in respect of the Joint Venture Agreements with TTM Global Enterprises Ltd. and Blue Orange Mining Limited and, consequently, the agreements were terminated as at February 26, 2013.

13

Effective January 25, 2013, we entered into an investment agreement with Deer Valley Management, LLC whereby Deer Valley Management will provide for a non-brokered financing arrangement of up to $5,000,000. The financing allows, but does not require us to issue and sell up to the number of shares of common stock having an aggregate purchase price of $5,000,000 to Deer Valley Management. Subject to the terms and conditions of the financing agreement and a registration rights agreement, we may, in our sole discretion, deliver a notice to Deer Valley Management which states the dollar amount which we intend to sell to Deer Valley Management on a certain date. The maximum amount that we shall be entitled to sell to Deer Valley Management shall be equal to 200% of the average daily volume (U.S. market only) of the common stock for the 10 trading days prior to the applicable notice date so long as such amount does not exceed 4.99% of the outstanding shares of our company. Deer Valley Management will purchase our common stock valued at a 22.5% discount from the weighted average price for the 3 lowest closing bid prices during 10 consecutive trading days or the previous closing bid price, whichever is less, prior to delivery and receipt of our capital request. The shares that we sell to Deer Valley Management must be registered stock, among other conditions of investment.

In connection with the investment agreement, we also entered into a registration rights agreement with Deer Valley Management dated January 25, 2013, whereby we agreed to file a Registration Statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission within 21 days of the date of the registration rights agreement. As at the date of this report we have not complied with our obligation to file a registration statement on Form S-1 pursuant to the registration rights agreement and the investment agreement with Deer Valley Management and we are therefore in default of those Agreements.

Effective February 8, 2013, our company entered into a collaboration agreement with Tell Mining Group for the exploration and development of mineral properties in Africa. Tell Mining is an active owner and developer of gold mining concessions in Ghana. Each concession constitutes a separate mining project. The agreement contemplates the creation of a joint venture company in Ghana (the “Ghana JV Company”) for which our company and Tell Mining shall each hold 50% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of the Ghana JV Company. Our company is required to deposit $10,000 cash with Tell Mining prior to commencement of mining along with 15% of net profits once in production, paid quarterly per concession. The term of the agreement is 5 years. As at the date of this report no action has been taken in respect of the collaboration agreement with Tell Mining and we have not made any payment pursuant to the agreement.

Effective February 22, 2013, our company entered into a securities purchase agreement with Asher Enterprises, Inc. Under the terms of the agreement our company issued an 8% convertible promissory note, in the principal amount of $42,500, which note matures on November 26, 2013 and may be converted into shares of our company’s common stock at any time after 180 days from February 22, 2013, subject to adjustments as further set out in the Note. The conversion price shall be at a variable conversion rate of 55% multiplied by the market price, being the average of the lowest two trading prices for our company’s common stock during the 90 trading day period ending on the last complete trading day prior to the conversion date, subject to adjustments as further set out in the note. Our company received the sum of $42,500 under the note on February 22, 2013.

Results of Operations

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.

We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities.

Our net loss for the three month period ended October 31, 2013 was $175,900 compared to a net loss of $17,261 for the three month period ended October 31, 2012. Our net loss for the nine month period ended October 31, 2013 was $419,243 compared to a net loss of $87,971 for the nine month period ended October 31, 2012. Our net loss was $590,013 during the period from inception (March 5, 2008) to October 31, 2013. During the three and nine month periods ended October 31, 2013, we did not generate any revenue.

During the three month period ended October 31, 2013, we incurred operating expenses of $163,587 compared to $17,261 for the three month period ended October 31, 2012. During the nine month period ended October 31, 2013, we incurred operating expenses of $265,642 compared to $87,971 for the nine month period ended October 31, 2012. We incurred $433,961 in expenses during the period from inception (March 5, 2008) to October 31, 2013. The increase in our operating expenses during FY2014 was primarily due to increased compensation and general and administrative expenses.

As at October 31, 2013, our current assets were $1,020 compared to $Nil in current assets as at January 31, 2013. As at October 31, 2013, our current liabilities were $484,424 compared to $109,261 current liabilities as at January 31, 2013. Current liabilities at October 31, 2013 were comprised of $4,313 in bank overdraft, $70,876 in accrued expenses, $6,865 in accrued interest, $900 in shareholder loans, $256,956 in convertible notes payable, $143,850 in derivative liability and $664 in notes payable.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities. For the nine month period ended October 31, 2013, net cash flows used in operating activities was $86,500, versus $24,152 used in operating activities for the same period last year, with the bulk of the increase due to increased operating expenses and change in value of our derivative liabilities. Net cash flows used in operating activities was $183,828 for the period from March 5, 2008 (inception) to October 31, 2013.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

We have financed our operations primarily from either advancements or the issuance of equity and debt instruments. For the nine month period ended October 31, 2013, net cash flows from financing activities was $86,500, all of which derived from convertible notes. For the period from inception (March 5, 2008) to October 31, 2013, net cash provided by financing activities was $183,828,  received from convertible notes, shareholder loans and sales of common stock.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the nine month period ended October 31, 2013, we did not generate any cash flows from investing activities.

Plan of Operation and Funding

We have little cash on hand, no financing arrangements and no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. There can be no assurance that we will be able to close any financing and if we do close any financings, there can be no assurance that they will be sufficient to meet our needs for the upcoming 12 months.

We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business.

Existing working capital, further advances and debt instruments, and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next twelve months. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt instruments. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of equity and debt. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long-term operating requirements. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations. We will have to raise additional funds in the next twelve months in order to sustain and expand our operations. We currently do not have a specific plan of how we will obtain such funding; however, we anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. We have and will continue to seek to obtain short-term loans from our directors, although no future arrangement for additional loans has been made. We do not have any agreements with our directors concerning these loans. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing.

15

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Going Concern

The independent auditors' report accompanying our January 31, 2013 financial statements contained an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared "assuming that we will continue as a going concern," which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount 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. Our management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Exploration Stage Company

Our company is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 915, Development Stage Entities.

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of our company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.

Accounting Basis

Our company uses the accrual basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” accounting). Our company has adopted a January 31 fiscal year end.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Our company had $0 and $0 of cash as of October 31, 2013 and January 31, 2013 respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, bank overdrafts, accrued expenses, accrued interest and shareholder loans. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

16

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 the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Our company recognizes revenue when products are fully delivered or services have been provided and collection is reasonably assured.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 718. To date, our company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.

Basic Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing our company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing our company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common stock equivalents outstanding as of July 31, 2013.

Comprehensive Income

Our company has established standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. When applicable, our company would disclose this information on its Statement of Stockholders’ Equity. Comprehensive income comprises equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Our company has not had any significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income.

Derivative Financial Instruments

FASB ASC subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, Contracts in Entity’s own Equity (“ASC 815-40”) became effective for our company on October 1, 2009. Our company has derivative liabilities resulting from the issuance of certain convertible debt, which were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using an option pricing model, consistent with level 3 inputs.
