(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2004 (EXPRESSED IN U.S. DOLLARS) 1. GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS These financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, meaning it will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of operations. Different bases of measurement may be appropriate when a company is not expected to continue operations for the foreseeable future. As at May 11, 2004, the Company had not reached a level of operations which would finance day-to-day activities. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to attain profitable operations and generate funds therefrom and/or raise equity capital or borrowings sufficient to meet current and future obligations. 2. CONTINUING OPERATIONS The Company is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. At the Company's annual general meeting in December, 2001, the shareholders approved the consolidation of the Company's shares to a maximum ratio of 1:20 and to change its domicile. The directors are authorized to implement these changes at their discretion. No changes have been implemented. 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES These financial statements have been prepared under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles applicable to interim financial statements and therefore do not include all the disclosures required for annual financial statements. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2003 and included with the Company's annual report. In the opinion of management, these financial statements contain all adjustment necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flow for the nine-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Interim results of operations are not indicative of the results of operations for the full year. 4.

RECONCILIATION TO ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED STATES ("U.S. GAAP") These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada. A description of accounting principles that differ in certain respects from United States generally accepted accounting principles follows: a. Income Taxes For the purposes of U.S. GAAP, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes". Statement 109 changed the method companies use to account for income taxes from the deferral method to an asset and liability method. As indicated, the Company has unrecognized losses being carried forward for income tax purposes. As there is no certainty as to utilization of the losses, the benefit attributable thereto would be fully offset by a valuation allowance. Accordingly, the application of Statement 109 does not result in a material difference for U.S. GAAP accounting purposes. UNAUDITED -SEE NOTICE TO READER CENTRAL MINERA CORP. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2004 (EXPRESSED IN U.S. DOLLARS) 8. RECONCILIATION TO ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED STATES ("U.S. GAAP") b. Stock-Based Compensation For purposes of U.S. GAAP, the Company has chosen to apply the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB No. 25") "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" for measuring the value of stock-based compensation. The intrinsic value-based method requires that compensation expense be recorded at the time of granting for the excess of the quoted market price over the exercise price granted to employees and directors under stock option plans. If a stock option is not exercised, the compensation expense recorded in the previous period is reversed by decreasing the compensation expense in the period of forfeiture. c. Other Accounting Standards i. The Company has adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (" SFAS 130") "Reporting Comprehensive Income" with no impact on U.S. GAAP differences. ii. The Company does not have any derivative or hedging instruments and, therefore, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133") "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity" has no impact on U.S. GAAP differences. The effect of the differences between Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP on the balance sheets and statements of operations and deficit is summarized below: MARCH 31 2004 2003 - -------- ------------ ------------ Share capital under Canadian GAAP $ 41,907,541 $ 41,441,857 Adjustment for APB No. 25 12,490 21,563 ------------ ------------ Share capital under U.S. GAAP $ 41,920,031 $ 41,463,420 ============ ============ Deficit under Canadian GAAP $(41,872,232 $(41,716,992) Adjustment for APB No. 25 (12,490) (21,563) ------------ ------------ Deficit under U.S. GAAP $(41,884,722 $(41,738,555) ============ ============ PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31 - ---------------------- (Loss) for the period under Canadian GAAP $ (95,818) $ (126,465) Adjustment for APB No. 25 - - ------------ ------------ Net (loss) for the period under U.S. GAAP $ (95,818) $ (126,465) ------------ ------------ Net (loss) per share under U.S. GAAP $ (.01) $ (.01) ============ ============ There is no effect on the statement of cash flow for the difference between Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP.

(a Development Stage Company) (in United States dollars) March 31, 2004 ________________________________________________________________________________ MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS CURRENT OPERATIONS Central Minera Corp. (the "Company") was largely inactive during the nine month period to March 31, 2004. On February 13, 2004, a private placement in the amount of $60,000.00 closed. 1,200,000 units of the Company in the ratio of one unit for each $0.05 were issued. Each unit consists of one subordinate voting share and one non-transferable share purchase warrant to acquire one subordinate voting share at $0.10 per share before the close of business on February 13, 2006. All funds will be used for operational expenses. GENERAL The Company has a limited history of operations and has not generated any operating revenues. The Company's assets currently consist of: o a 15.72% interest in Cactus Gold Corp ("Cactus"), a private Nevada corporation which owns certain mining properties including the Josh Claim. DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS During the nine month period to March 31, 2004 the company incurred a loss of $101,000, as compared to a loss of $126,000 for the nine month period to March 31, 2003. The significant variances are as follows: Consulting Fees 20,000 Reduction in rates charged Legal, 109,000 Lawsuit settled in 2002 Travel & Other expenses 7,000 Cost reductions Foreign Exchange (7,000) Change in exchange rates Salaries (6,000) Reduction in staff -------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Increase) decrease in loss for the period 25,000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CENTRAL MINERA CORP. (a Development Stage Company) (in United States dollars) March 31, 2004 ________________________________________________________________________________ FINANCING On February 13, 2004, a private placement in the amount of $60,000.00 closed. 1,200,000 units of the Company in the ratio of one unit for each $0.05 were issued. Each unit consists of one subordinate voting share and one non-transferable share purchase warrant to acquire one subordinate voting share at $0.10 per share before the close of business on February 13, 2006. All funds will be used for operational expenses. Related parties subscribed to $50,000 of the placement. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES On March 31, 2004 the Company had working capital of $28,000 as compared to a working capital of $80,000 at March 31, 2003. As none of the Company's mineral properties have advanced to the commercial production stage and it has no history of earnings or cash flow from operations, the Company relies on the sale of its equity shares for its source of funds. Cumulatively from the Company's inception, it has raised $25,751,857 through the sale of its shares. The company's major use of funds has been operations and mineral property expenditures. During the nine months to March 31, 2004 the Company spent $100,000 on operations ($240,000 in the nine months to March 31, 2003). In order to reduce operational and mineral property expenditures, the Company has reduced staff, and sold its major properties. The Company anticipates that it will continue to have losses from operations until it can advance its properties to the commercial production stage.
