NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business: Original Sixteen to One Mine, Inc. (the Company) was
incorporated in 1911 and is actively involved in operating The Sixteen to One
mine in Alleghany, California.
Inventory: Inventory consists of gold bullion, specimens and jewelry. Gold
bullion and specimens are quoted at the market price for gold bullion.
Jewelry is quoted at the market price for gold content plus labor cost.
Due to limitations of the Company's accounting software all inventory is
accounted for using average cost.
Fixed Assets: Fixed assets are stated at historical cost. Depreciation is
calculated using straight-line and accelerated methods over the following
useful lives: Vehicles 3 to 5 years, Equipment 5 to 7 years, Buildings 18 to
31.5 years.
Depletion Policy: Because of the geological formation in the Alleghany Mining
District, estimates of ore reserves cannot be calculated, and accordingly, a
cost per unit depletion factor cannot be determined. Should estimates of ore
reserves become available, the units of production method of depletion will be
used. Until such time, no depletion deduction will be recorded.
Revenue Recognition: As they are mined, gold specimens are recorded in
inventory and revenue is recognized using quoted market prices for gold.
For income tax purposes revenues are not recognized until the gold is sold.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts
of 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 these estimates.
GENERAL NOTES
1. In accordance with directive from the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC)and Industry Guide 7, reference for all intent and purposes to the
Company's employees as miners, its properties as mines or its operation as
mining does not diminish the fact that the Company has no proven reserves and
is in the "exploration state" as defined in Guide 7(a)(4)(iii).
2. In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present
fairly the Company's financial position at Sept. 30, 2019 and December 31,
2018, the results of operations and cash flows for the three-month reporting
quarter and nine-month periods ending Sept. 30, 2019 and 2018. The unaudited
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B.
II. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF PLAN OF OPERATION
The Sixteen to One Mine in the Alleghany Mining District is a unique mine and
requires a unique operation, recognized by its owners, its miners, geologists,
engineers, and some public agencies during the last decade of the twentieth
century and to the present. It is a traditional high-grade, hard rock,
underground gold mine. The same company owns and operates (maintains) the
mine. Original Sixteen to One Mine Inc, (owner) incorporated in California in
1911. Experts estimate that less than thirty percent of the deposit has been
mined. Production is approximately 1,500,000 ounces of gold.
The Company began a new exploration program last quarter led by a California
registered geologist. The basis is strictly geology: identifying hydrothermal
solution pathways, evaluating the ore potential and mining environment.
There are over thirty miles of horizontal workings and millions of cubic
feet of vertical excavations called stopes. The entire grounds are not
maintained for mining. Once an area is targeted for mining, travel ways and
escape routes are brought into safety compliance. Production miners set up a
heading (face) and begin a drill-blast-muck sequence into the quartz. Gold is
hosted in the quartz vein in exceedingly rich concentrations called "pockets".
Metal detectors are regularly used underground as a tool for guiding the
direction of the work. Metal detectors are also used as a tool to classify the
ore underground. This has the positive affect of reducing the volume of rock
taken from the mine, thereby reducing costs.
In 1992, the company initiated a gold marketing plan of selling gold in quartz
as a gemstone. This produces revenue significantly greater than selling gold
into the spot market. Demand for the Sixteen to One gold-in-quartz gemstone
exceeds supply.
Production has been termed a "feast or famine" situation for over 100 years.
Reserves in a high-grade gold mine cannot be termed as "proven". By industry
wide definition of phases of a mine operation, the operation during this
quarter is rehabilitation. Due to the extensive workings and small size of the
crew, maintenance and rehabilitation must periodically be prioritized over
exploration, development and production. Exploration aims at locating the
presence of economic deposits and establishing their nature, shape and grade.
The investigation may be divided into (1) initial and (2) final. At
the Sixteen to One the search for gold or ore embraces: (1) geological surveys;
(2) geophysical prospecting; (3) boreholes; (4) surface or underground
headings, drifts or tunnels. When miners detect the presence of gold, the
Company evaluates the indicators and if warranted, moves its operation from
exploration to development. When the presence of gold is evaluated, the Company
moves its operation into production. The company hoards gold and sells it
according to short-term cash needs. This fact requires an operator to manage
its cash flow to operate between pockets. It is difficult to undertake major
expansion plans with an uncertain supply of capital.
BALANCE SHEET COMPARISONS
For the nine-month period from December 31, 2018 to Sept. 30, 2019 total
assets decreased by 23% primarily due to a 42% decrease in inventory and 17%
in Accounts Receivable. The corresponding revenue decrease was from a planned
shift from production towards development and maintainence.
For the same nine-month period long-term liabilities decreased by 6%.
STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS
Revenues for the three-month period ended Sept. 30, 2019 show a negative
amount due to the fact that the gold that was sold this quarter was mined and
transferred into inventory at a higher price than the current gold market. This
results in "cost of goods sold" which is included in the "gross income" figure
to exceed total income. The fact that the company's software program uses the
average cost method for cost of goods sold further complicates this problem.
The company cannot afford to purchase a more robust software program at this
time.
Revenues for the nine-month period ended Sept. 30, 2019 compared to the same
period in 2018 were 9% higher due to a higher percentage of sales being
generated by bullion (raw gold) rather than gemstone sales.
Operating expenses for the three-month period ended Sept 30, 2019 were 5%
lower than in 2018 due to the shift of priorities to new maintainence and
development of lower levels of underground workings. Operating expenses
for the nine-month period ended Sept 30,2019 decreased by 6% compared to the
same period in 2018 for the same reason.
For the three-month period ended Sept. 30, 2019 the company showed a loss of
$111,187 compared to a loss of $143,560 for the same period in 2018. For the
nine-month period ended Sept. 30, 2019 the company showed a loss of $251,447
compared to a loss of $289,966 for the same period in 2018.

PART II
ITEM 1 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Roger Haas, a shareholder and President and main figure in the operation of
Quartzview, a Silicon Valley start-up financed by Carl Berg, filed a petition
for Writ of Mandate onSeptember 6, 2018 for access to the Company's shareholder
list. The Company refused the demand, filing the answer on October 17, 2018.
The action is in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of
Sierra.
The State Water Resources Control Board issued Adminstrative Civil Liability
Order R5-2017-0115 on Dec. 8, 2017. The Company filed a timely Petition for
Review. No decision has been issued in this matter.
ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS
The Company's liquidity is substantially dependent upon the results of
operations. The Company maintains a gold inventory which it liquidates to
satisfy working capital needs. There is no assurance that inventory is
adequate to sustain the Company.
ITEM 2 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY
None
ITEM 3 DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
None
ITEM 4 MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2019 no S&S citations under
Section 104(a) were issued. No 104(b) Orders or 104(d) S&S Citations
Section 110 (b)(2) Violations or Section 107 (a) Orders were issued.
ITEM 5 OTHER INFORMATION
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Original Sixteen to
One Mine, Inc. (the Company) have been prepared by management in accordance
with generally accepted accounting practices. Such rules allow the omission of
certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted audited accounting
principles as long as the statements are not misleading.
In the opinion of management, verified by signature below, all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of these interim statements have been
included. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at
the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amount of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis,
management evaluates its estimates and assumptions; however, actual amounts
could differ from those based on such estimates and assumptions. No accounting
principle upon which the Company's financial status depends, requires estimates
of proven and probable reserves and/or assumptions of future gold prices.
Commodity prices may significantly affect the company's profitability and cash
flow. No independent accounting firm or auditors have any responsibility for
the accounting and written statements of the Form 10-Q.
The Company and its president assume responsibility for the accuracy of this
filing and certify the financial statements present fairly in all material
respects, the financial position of Original Sixteen to One Mine, Inc at Sept.
30, 2019.
