Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended March 31, 2003
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Consolidated Financial Statements for the Three Months ended March 31, 2003
Reference is made to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of Queenstake Resources Ltd. ("Queenstake" or the "Company") for the three months ended March 31, 2003 upon which the following discussion is based.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended March 31, 2003 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2002
The Company earned $226,470 (U.S.$150,000) as operator of the Magistral Joint Venture in the first quarter of 2003 as it did in the first quarter of 2002. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2003 in the amount of $84,033 related to accrued interest on the Company’s loan to the Magistral Joint Venture. Interest at this time last year was negligible. General and administration expenses increased to $389,806 from $317,120 for the same period last year primarily an overall increase of 23% a reflection of increased corporate and corporate development activities. At this time last year the Company, as operator of the Magistral Joint Venture, was concentrated on construction of the Magistral mine. Corporate development was $423,230 compared to $837 this time last year a reflection of the Company’s ent ire focus in the first quarter 2003 of the first attempt to acquire the Jerritt Canyon mine in Nevada begun on February 27, 2003 and terminated on April 7, 2003. Additional costs from this failed attempt will be recognized in the second quarter. On May 20, 2003 (QRL – News Release 2003-9) the Company announced it had signed a letter of intent to acquire the Jerritt Canyon Mine and its intended methods of financing that acquisition. The Company’s technical due diligence was complete in its first attempt and need only be updated to the current quarter. As a cost of financing the acquisition, the Company will be responsible for the cost of the equity and debt financers due diligence and document preparation.
A foreign exchange loss of $190,822 was a significant amount for the first time because of the Company’s U.S. dollar denominated receivables and loans to the Magistral Joint Venture and the loss in value of the U.S. dollar against the Canadian dollar in the period.
Three months ended March 31, 2002 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2001
The Company earned $239,115 (U.S.$150,000) as operator of the Magistral Joint Venture in the first quarter of 2002. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was negligible compared to $16,982 for the same period last year. General and administration expenses increased to $317,120 from $167,056 for the same period last year primarily because the Company is no longer capitalizing a portion of the salaries of two of its executives to the Magistral project. In addition the Company has hired a Controller and secretary both working from the Denver office to assist in the Company’s growth. Corporate development was $837 compared to $26,064 this time last year a reflection of the Company’s entire focus in the first quarter 2002 of beginning construction at the Magistral project. It is expected that this category of cost s will increase in the second quarter as the focus shifts to reviewing potential acquisitions of near term cash flow producing assets as construction at Magistral is well in hand. Interest expense of $4,845 to the period of January 15, 2002 compares to $48,269 for the period of January 1 to March 31, 2001 were in both cases settled by the issuance of shares of the Company and were non-cash charges to the loss. Current exploration expense in the quarter was nil compared to $19,356 expensed last year at this time on examining the assets in Burkina Faso prior to abandoning all but the interest in the Taparko project. The most significant item on the statement of loss is the non-cash expense of $679,634 relating to the early conversion of a note that would have matured in September 2003. The charge is calculated in accordance with the pronouncement of the CICA, EIC-96,Accounting for the Early Extinguishment of Convertible Securities Through Induced Early Conversion. The charge to earnings in the amount of $1,304 was calculated in accordance with the new requirements of CICA of accounting for stock-based compensation expense. Under this method, compensation expense on stock options granted to consultants is recorded as an expense in the period the options are vested. Stock options granted to consultants are accounted for using the fair value method. Stock options granted to employees and directors are reported on a pro-forma basis and are not included in the current loss.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Historically, Queenstake's capital needs have been met through sales of equity securities.
In the first quarter of 2003 the Company accrued $226,470 (U.S.$150,000) of management fees for operating the Magistral Joint Venture. On January 16, 2003 and January 31, 2003 pursuant to a non-brokered private placement financing announced December 20, 2002 the Company issued a total of 6,589,667 common shares and 6,589,667 common share purchase warrants for gross proceeds of $1,581,520. The first tranche of 5,060,000 common share purchase warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.30 at any time until January 15, 2004 and the second tranche of 1,529,667 common share purchase warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.30 at any time until January 30, 2004. The Company paid a total cash finders’ fee of $126,522 and issued 506,000 finders’ share pur chase warrants entitling the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.26 at any time until January 15, 2004 and 152,967 finders’ share purchase warrants entitling the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.26 at any time until January 30, 2004. On February 14, 2003 the Company issued 1,194,531 shares of the Company to satisfy the January 30, 2003 trigger of the Magistral Joint Venture owed U.S.$250,000 Gold Note. On March 21, 2003 the Company issued 30,000 shares pursuant to the exercise of stock options at an exercise price of $0.11.
Queenstake expects to receive operator fees from revenue from production at Magistral during the next twelve months; however, if production is delayed or is not profitable, then there may be delays in receiving this anticipated income. Queenstake has a total accrued receivable from the Magistral Joint Venture at March 31, 2003 in the amount of $ $2,493,579 (U.S.$1,698,854). Queenstake is subject to various risks and uncertainties, most of which are inherent to conducting mineral exploration and development activities. Foreign investments are subject to taxation as imposed at various levels within each country, capital investments and repatriation limitations, and the effects of changes in foreign currency rates. Environmental laws imposed presently or in the future may also result in additional costs of conducting mineral exploration or mining activities. Queenstake's Magistral project is its only mineral property with economically recoverable gold reserves. Its residual interests in its Peru Properties, through its shareholding in Monterrico Metals PLC, are in the exploration stage and it has not yet been determined whether the properties contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable or whether Monterrico will be successful in raising the funds to continue exploration. Finally, amounts recorded by Queenstake as long-term investments are dependent upon future profitable operations of the underlying mineral properties.
Other than as discussed herein, the Company is not aware of any trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that may result in the Company’s liquidity either materially increasing or decreasing at present or in the foreseeable future. Material increases or decreases in the Company’s liquidity will be substantially determined by the success or failure of its Magistral project attaining profitable production, the price of gold and the ability of the Company to successfully acquire and finance another mineral acquisition.
Three months ended March 31, 2003 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2002
The Company used a total of $808,363 cash in the three month period ending March 31, 2003, net of accrued revenues of $310,503: $693,355 to fund operations, $109,021 to fund non-cash working capital and $5,987 to purchase office furniture and equipment. The Company issued a total of 7,814,198 shares in the three month period of which $1,372,167 was for cash and $382,250 for deemed proceeds to be recovered from the Magistral Joint Venture in the future. Queenstake’s cash balance at March 31, 2003 was $741,496 and represents unrestricted corporate cash. As previously stated these financial statements do not include the accounts of the Magistral Joint Venture. The cash balance, combined with its management fee income, would be sufficient to fund more than the next 12 months of planned operations of the Company with any increase in corpo rate activity or acquisitions to be funded by additional and associated external debt or equity financing. However, if profitable operations at the Magistral Joint Venture are not attained, and the management fees not received, the Company may need to raise additional equity financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will continue to be available to Queenstake on favorable terms or at all
Three months ended March 31, 2002 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2001
The Company used a total of $124,729 cash in the three month period ending March 31, 2002, net of revenues of $239,467: $98,543 to fund operations, $4,364 the cash costs to issue shares to settle liabilities and $21,822 to upgrade the Denver office computer equipment for its four personnel. The Company issued a total of 10,211,660 shares to the holder of the convertible secured note in full settlement of that note and accrued interest to settlement date. The face value of the note was $968,783 and would have matured on September 15, 2003. Queenstake’s cash balance at March 31, 2002 was $239,115 and represents unrestricted corporate cash.

Subsequent event
On May 30, 2003 the Company signed an asset sale and purchase agreement with subsidiaries of AngloGold Limited and Meridian Gold, Inc. to acquire their respective 70% and 30% interests in the Jerritt Canyon mine, located in the Independence Mountain Range of Nevada and just north of the Carlin Trend. Jerritt Canyon has historically produced between 300,000 and 350,000 ounces of gold annually from Carlin-style mineralization.
Six weeks ago, on April 8, Queenstake announced that its earlier planned acquisition of the mine had ended due to changes in market conditions, namely a significant drop in the gold price since negotiations commenced and the uncertainties created by the onset of war in Iraq. All parties have signed a mutual release from the February 27, 2003 purchase agreement. Queenstake has exclusivity to negotiate a new definitive purchase agreement, subject to regulatory and any required shareholder approval, to acquire the Jerritt Canyon mine with closing expected to take place by June 25, 2003.
Queenstake’s cost to acquire
*
US$250,000 cash paid on May 20, 2003.
*
US$1.25 million cash to sellers on closing.
*
32 million common shares of Queenstake to the sellers on closing.
*
Quarterly cash payments of US$1 million totaling US$6 million, to begin at the earlier of full repayment of the senior project debt or June 30, 2005.
*
A Net Smelter Return royalty payable to the sellers, to begin the earlier of full repayment of the senior debt financing or June 30, 2005, based on a sliding scale ranging from 2% to 4% at gold prices above $320 an ounce. The royalty is capped at US$4 million at which point it converts into a 1% Net Profits Interest payable only to AngloGold.
*
US$31.75 million premium to acquire a closure and reclamation insurance policy underwritten by AIG Environmental.

Intended financing for acquisition
*
A US$20 to $25 million secured, senior debt financing with a two-year term.
*
A US$15 to $20 million brokered equity financing.
A financial institution has delivered a summary of principal terms and conditions under which it is prepared to enter into a secured senior debt financing with Queenstake. The debt financing is subject to due diligence and equity financing of at least US$15 million. The lender will require a floor price of not less than $330 an ounce of gold be in place as part of the conditions of providing the debt financing. Queenstake will likely provide this price protection by way of purchasing put options, which will not limit the upside potential for the gold price.
A Toronto based broker has agreed to act as lead underwriter in connection with an equity offering of not less than US$15 million of Queenstake units comprised of common shares and share purchase warrants. The offering is subject to completion of due diligence and having senior debt financing of a minimum of US$20 million in place that will be priced in the context of the market.
Westwind Partners Inc. acted as financial advisors to Queenstake for this acquisition and Queenstake has received regulatory approval to issue 1 million common share purchase warrants to Westwind as part of a financial advisory fee entitling Westwind to acquire up to 1 million shares of the Company, exercisable at C$0.20 until May 3, 2004.
Due diligence is underway by both the broker and the financial institution.
