INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT'S REVIEW REPORT
We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Cadence Resources Corporation
(formerly Royal Silver Mines, Inc.) as of June 30, 2003, and the related
statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders' equity, and cash
flows for the nine months ended June 30, 2003, 2002 and 2001. All information
included in these financial statements is the representation of the management
of Cadence Resources Corporation.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the
objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial
statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
The financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 were
audited by us and we expressed an unqualified opinion on them in our report
dated January 9, 2003. We have not performed any auditing procedures since that
date.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the
financial statements, the Company's significant operating losses raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
plans are also discussed in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

CADENCE RESOURCES CORPORATION
(FORMERLY ROYAL SILVER MINES, INC.)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2003
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Cadence Resources Corporation (formerly Royal Silver Mines, Inc.) hereinafter
("Cadence" or "the Company") was incorporated in April of 1969 under the laws of
the State of Utah primarily for the purpose of acquiring and developing mineral
properties. The Company changed its name from Royal Silver Mines, Inc. to
Cadence Resources Corporation on May 2, 2001 upon obtaining approval from its
shareholders and filing an amendment to its articles of incorporation. The
Company shall be referred to as "Cadence" or "Cadence Resources Corporation"
even though the events described may have occurred while the Company's name was
"Royal Silver Mines, Inc." The Company has elected a September 30 fiscal
year-end.
On July 1, 2001, Cadence developed a plan for acquisition, exploration and
development of oil and gas properties and accordingly began a new exploration
stage as an energy project development company. Prior to this, Cadence
conducted its business as a "junior" mineral resource company, meaning that it
intended to receive income from property sales or joint ventures of its mineral
projects with larger companies. The Company continues to hold several mineral
properties, which are described in Note 3.
Celebration Mining Company ("Celebration"), currently a wholly owned subsidiary
of Cadence, was incorporated for the purpose of identifying, acquiring,
exploring and developing mining properties. Celebration was organized on
February 17, 1994 as a Washington corporation. Celebration has not yet realized
any revenues from its planned operations.
On August 8, 1995, Cadence and Celebration completed an agreement and plan of
reorganization whereby the Company issued 207,188 shares of its common stock and
72,750 warrants in exchange for all of the outstanding common stock of
Celebration. Pursuant to the reorganization, the name of the Company was
changed to Royal Silver Mines, Inc. Immediately prior to the agreement and plan
of reorganization, the Company had 118,773 common shares issued and outstanding.
The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase by Celebration of Cadence,
because the shareholders of Celebration controlled the Company after the
acquisition. Therefore, Celebration is treated as the acquiring entity. There
was no adjustment to the carrying value of the assets or liabilities of Cadence
in the exchange as the market value approximated the net carrying value.
Cadence is the acquiring entity for legal purposes and Celebration is the
surviving entity for accounting purposes.
As a result of the Company's entering a new exploration stage as an energy
project development company on July 1, 2001, the Company elected to dispose of
its mineral properties and has accordingly reclassified these properties, which
total $246,757 at June 30, 2003, as net assets of discontinued operations. The
Company has not determined whether these mineral exploration properties contain
ore reserves that are economically recoverable, and is in the process of
disposing of these properties. The ultimate realization of the Company's
investment in these properties cannot be determined at this time and,
accordingly, no provision for any asset

impairment that may result in the event the Company is not successful in selling
these properties has been made in the accompanying financial statements. See
Note 3.
The $150,852 and $177,177, respectively, cost of prepaid mineral leases included
in the accompanying balance sheets as of June 30, 2003 and September 30, 2002
are related to natural gas properties. The Company has not determined whether
the properties contain economically recoverable gas reserves. The ultimate
realization of the Company's investment in oil and gas properties is dependent
upon finding and developing economically recoverable reserves, the ability of
the Company to obtain financing or make other arrangements for development and
upon future profitable production. The ultimate realization of the Company's
investment in oil and gas properties cannot be determined at this time and,
accordingly, no provision for any asset impairment that may result in the event
the Company is not successful in developing these properties, has been made in
the accompanying financial statements.
The Company was in the exploration stage through June 30, 2002. During the
fourth quarter of the year ended September 30, 2002, the Company entered a very
brief development stage and is now considered an operating company.
The Company is seeking additional capital through a private placement of its
stock, or debt. Management plans to use the majority of such financing proceeds
for landhold acquisition, and on drilling and possible completion of an oil well
project in Texas. Management also plans to conduct a second financing, larger
than the first, the proceeds of which will be used for drilling of wells on the
Company's leased oil and gas property in Louisiana, as well as its newly
acquired working interest participation in gas wells in Michigan. See Note 10.
Management believes that such financing proceeds will enable the Company to
continue its operations. However, there are inherent uncertainties in fund
raising and in the sales of excess assets and management cannot provide
assurances that it will be successful in these endeavors.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies of Cadence Resources Corporation
is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial statements. The
financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management,
which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting
policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the
financial statements.
Accounting Method
- ------------------
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of
accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.

CADENCE RESOURCES CORPORATION
(FORMERLY ROYAL SILVER MINES, INC.)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2003
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Exploration Stage
- ------------------
The Company began a new exploration stage concerning the exploration of oil and
gas leases on July 1, 2001, which ended during July 2002 with the commenced sale
of oil and gas products.
Estimates
- ---------
The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use
of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities,
revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled
transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly,
upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.
Loss Per Share
- ----------------
Loss per share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of
shares was calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting
them by the amount of time they were outstanding. Outstanding warrants were not
included in the computation of diluted loss per share because their inclusion
would be antidilutive.
Cash Equivalents
- -----------------
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Mineral Properties
- -------------------
Costs of acquiring, exploring and developing mineral properties are capitalized
by project area. Costs to maintain the mineral rights and leases are expensed
as incurred. When a property reaches the production stage, the related
capitalized costs will be amortized, using the units of production method on the
basis of periodic estimates of ore reserves. At June 30, 2003 and September 30,
2002, the cost of the Company's mineral properties are included in net assets of
discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements, as the Company
has changed its focus from minerals exploration to oil and gas.
Mineral properties are periodically assessed for impairment of value and any
losses are charged to operations at the time of impairment.
Should a property be abandoned, its capitalized costs are charged to operations.
The Company charges to operations the allocable portion of capitalized costs
attributable to properties sold. Capitalized costs are allocated to properties
sold based on the proportion of claims sold to the claims remaining within the
project area.

CADENCE RESOURCES CORPORATION
(FORMERLY ROYAL SILVER MINES, INC.)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2003
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Oil and Gas Properties
- -------------------------
The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas
producing activities. Costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas
properties, to drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves, and
to drill and equip development wells are capitalized. Costs to drill
exploratory wells that do not find proved reserves, geological and geophysical
costs, and costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties are expensed.
Unproved oil and gas properties that are individually significant are
periodically assessed for impairment of value, and a loss is recognized at the
time of impairment by providing an impairment allowance. Other unproved
properties are amortized based on the Company's experience of successful
drilling and average holding period. Capitalized costs of producing oil and gas
properties, after considering estimated dismantlement and abandonment costs and
estimated salvage values, are depreciated and depleted by the unit-of-production
method. Support equipment and other property and equipment are depreciated over
their estimated useful lives. Property leases are expensed ratably over the
life of the lease.
On the sale or retirement of a complete unit of a proven property, the cost and
related accumulated depreciation, depletion, and amortization are eliminated
from the property accounts, and the resultant gain or loss is recognized. On
the retirement or sale of a partial unit of proven property, the cost is charged
to accumulated depreciation, depletion, and amortization with a resulting gain
or loss recognized in income.
On the sale of an entire interest in an unproved property for cash or cash
equivalent, gain or loss on the sale is recognized, taking into consideration
the amount of any unrecorded impairment if the property had been assessed
individually. If a partial interest in an unproved property is sold, the amount
received is treated as a reduction of the cost of the interest retained.
Provision For Taxes
- ---------------------
Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant
to SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under this approach, deferred
income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of
differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial
reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against
deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the "more
likely than not" standard imposed by SFAS No. 109 to allow recognition of such
an asset.
At June 30, 2003, the Company had net deferred tax assets of approximately
$1,700,000, principally arising from net operating loss carryforwards for income
tax purposes. During the year ending September 30, 2002, the Company utilized
$66,040 of the net deferred taxes from previous net operating losses in the
offset of the gain associated with the sale of mining property. As management
of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that the Company
will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset, a valuation allowance
equal to the net deferred tax asset has been established at March 31, 2003.

Provision For Taxes (Continued)
- ----------------------------------
At June 30, 2003, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $8,500,000, which expire in the years 2003 through 2022.
Additionally, the Company has capital loss carryovers of approximately
$4,870,000.
Environmental Remediation and Compliance
- -------------------------------------------
Expenditures for ongoing compliance with environmental regulations that relate
to current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures
resulting from the remediation of existing conditions caused by past operations
that do not contribute to future revenue generations are expensed. Liabilities
are recognized when environmental assessments indicate that remediation efforts
are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Estimates of such
liabilities are based upon currently available facts, existing technology and
presently enacted laws and regulations taking into consideration the likely
effects of inflation and other societal and economic factors, and include
estimates of associated legal costs. These amounts also reflect prior
experience in remediating contaminated sites, other companies' clean-up
experience and data released by The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or
other organizations. Such estimates are by their nature imprecise and can be
expected to be revised over time because of changes in government regulations,
operations, technology and inflation. Recoveries are evaluated separately from
the liability and, when recovery is assured, the Company records and reports an
asset separately from the associated liability. At June 30, 2003, the Company
had no accrued liabilities for compliance with environmental regulations.
Investments
- -----------
Investments, principally consisting of equity securities of private and small
public companies, which are stated at current market value.
Revenue Recognition
- --------------------
Cadence began producing revenues during July 2002. Sales are recognized at the
point of passage of title specified in the underlying contract.
Impaired Asset Policy
- -----------------------
The Company adopted financial Accounting Standard Board statement SFAS No. 121
titled "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets," which has been replaced
by SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."
In complying with this standard, the Company reviews its long-lived assets
quarterly to determine if any events or changes in circumstances have transpired
which indicate that the carrying value of its assets may not be recoverable.
The Company determines impairment by comparing the undiscounted future cash
flows estimated to be generated by its assets to their respective carrying
amount whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset may
not be recoverable. Because of write-downs and write-offs taken in fiscal years
2000 and 2001, the Company does not believe any further adjustments are needed
to the carrying value of its assets at June 30, 2003. See Note 3.

Fair Value Standards
- ----------------------
The Company has adopted the fair value accounting rules to record all
transactions in equity instruments for goods or services.
Principles of Consolidation
- -----------------------------
The financial statements include those of the Cadence Resources Corporation and
Celebration Mining Company. All significant inter-company accounts and
transactions have been eliminated. The financial statements are not considered
consolidated statements since Cadence Resources Corporation was the successor by
merger to Celebration Mining Company.
Reclassifications
- -----------------
Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform with the
current period presentation. This reclassification has resulted in no changes
to the Company's accumulated deficit and net losses presented.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
- ---------------------------------------
The carrying amounts for cash, receivables, deposits, payables, and advances
from related parties approximate their fair value.
Derivative Instruments
- -----------------------
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB No.
133", and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and
Certain Hedging Activities", which is effective for the Company as of January 1,
2001. These standards establish accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts, and for hedging activities. They require that an entity
recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet
and measure those instruments at fair value.
If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a
hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition
on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair
value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk
or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a
derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is
recognized in income in the period of change.
Historically, the Company has not entered into derivatives contracts to hedge
existing risks or for speculative purposes.
At June 30, 2003, the Company has not engaged in any transactions that would be
considered derivative instruments or hedging activities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
- ----------------------------------
In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity" (hereinafter
"SFAS No. 150"). SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for classifying and
measuring certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities
and equity and requires that those instruments be classified as liabilities in
statements of financial position. Previously, many of those instruments were
classified as equity. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments
entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and otherwise is effective at the
beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company
has not yet determined the impact of the adoption of this statement.
In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (hereinafter "SFAS No. 149").
SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies the accounting for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for
hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities". This statement is effective for contracts entered into
or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after
June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 is not expected to have a material
impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
In December 2002, the "FASB" Financial Accounting Standards Board, issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation - Transition and Disclosure" ("SFAS No. 148"). SFAS NO. 148 amends
SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide alternative
methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, the statement
amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent
disclosure in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method
used on reported results. The provisions of the statement are effective for
financial statements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. The
Company currently reports stock issued to employees under the rules of SFAS No.
123. Accordingly there is no change in disclosure requirements due to SFAS No.
148.
In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 146," Accounting for Costs Associated with
Exit or Disposal Activities ("SFAS No. 146"). SFAS No. 146 addresses
significant issues regarding the recognition, measurement, and reporting of
costs associated with exit and disposal activities, including restructuring
activities. SFAS No. 146 also addresses recognition of certain costs related to
terminating a contract that is not a capital lease, costs to consolidate
facilities or

relocate employees, and termination benefits provided to employees that are
involuntarily terminated under the terms of a one-time benefit arrangement that
is not an ongoing benefit arrangement or an individual deferred-compensation
contract. SFAS No. 146 was issued in June 2002, effective December 31, 2002
with early adoption encouraged. The impact on the Company's financial position
or results of operations from adopting SFAS No. 146 has not been determined.
In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 44, 4
and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections", which
updates, clarifies and simplifies existing accounting pronouncements. FASB No.
4, which required all gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt to be
aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of related
tax effect was rescinded. As a result, FASB No. 64, which amended FASB No. 4,
was rescinded as it was no longer necessary. SFAS No. 44, Accounting for
Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers, established the accounting requirements for
the effects of transition to the provisions of the Motor Carrier Act of 1980.
Since the transition has been completed, SFAS No. 44 is no longer necessary and
has been rescinded. SFAS No. 145 amended SFAS No. 13 to eliminate an
inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions
and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic
effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. Management has not yet
determined the effects of adopting this Statement on the financial position or
results of operations, except for the need to reclassify debt extinguishments
previously reported as extraordinary.
In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (SFAS No. 144). SFAS No. 144 replaces SFAS No.
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed of." This standard establishes a single accounting model
for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, including discontinued
operations. SFAS No. 144 requires that these long-lived assets be measured at
the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported
in continuing operations or discontinued operations. This statement is
effective beginning for fiscal years after December 15, 2001, with earlier
application encouraged. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 and the adoption did
not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company at June
30, 2003.
In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations" (SFAS No. 143). SFAS No. 143 establishes guidelines related to the
retirement of tangible long-lived assets of the Company and the associated
retirement costs. This statement requires that the fair value of a liability
for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is
incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated
asset retirement costs are

capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived assets. This
statement is effective for financial statements issued for the fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002 and with earlier
application encouraged. The Company adopted SFAS No. 143 and the adoption did
not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company at June
30, 2003.
In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No.
142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 provides for the
elimination of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business
combinations with an acquisition date of July 1, 2001 or later. SFAS No. 142
prohibits the amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets with
indefinite lives and requires periodic reassessment of the underlying value of
such assets for impairment. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2001. An early adoption provision exists for companies with
fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001. The adoption of these standards did
not have any material effect on the Company's financial statements.
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB
Interpretation No. 46 "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an
Interpretation of ARB No. 51" (hereinafter "FIN 46"). FIN 46 requires certain
variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the
entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of
a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for
the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial
support from other parties. FIN 46 is effective for all new variable interest
entities created or acquired after January 31, 2003. The provisions of FIN 46
must be applied for the first interim or annual period beginning after June 15,
2003. The Company does not have any entities that require disclosure or new
consolidation as a result of adopting the provisions of FIN 46.
In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB
Interpretation No. 45 "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for
Guarantees, including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others"
(hereinafter "FIN 45"). FIN 45 requires a company, at the time it issues a
guarantee, to recognize an initial liability for the fair value of obligations
assumed under the guarantee and elaborates on existing disclosure requirements
related to guarantees and warranties. The initial recognition requirements of
FIN 45 are effective forguarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002
and do not have an impact on the financial statements of the Company. The
Company does not anticipate issuing any guarantees which would be required to be
recognized as a liability under the provisions of FIN 45 and thus does not
expect the adoption of this interpretation to have an impact on its results of
operations or financial position.

As shown in the accompanying financial statement, the Company had limited
revenues, has incurred a net loss of $1,338,446 for the nine months ended June
30, 2003, and has an accumulated deficit of $14,244,578. Although the Company
is considered an operating entity since July 1, 2002 when one of it exploration
properties began producing reasonable revenue, the current projected revenues
are still substantially less then the Company's historical operating expenses.
These factors indicate that the Company may be unable to continue in existence.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the
recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and
classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company
cannot continue in existence.
The Company's management has strong beliefs that significant and imminent
private placements will generate sufficient cash for the Company to operate for
the next few years. The Company also believes that the occasional sale of its
equity investments will provide cash as needed for operations.

exploration and development work on these properties, such as general geological
reconnaissance and claim-staking activities. The majority of these claims were
written off as permanently impaired at September 30, 2001.
In September 2000, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Celebration
Mining Company, entered into a five-year lease agreement with an affiliated
company, Oxford Metallurgical, Inc. on its eight-claim Palisades Group property.
This lease was rescinded during the year ended September 30, 2002. The lease
called for a semi-annual payment of $3,000, or alternatively, the semi-annual
payment of 10,000 shares of the common stock of Oxford. Oxford had the right to
explore and potentially develop the property under certain conditions.

NOTE 8 - COMMON STOCK OPTION AND AWARD PLAN (CONTINUED)
The Company has a stock-based compensation plan whereby the Company's board of
directors may grant common stock to its employees and directors. At September
30, 2001, a total of 72,750 options have been granted under the plan. These
options have been forfeited and none have been exercised through the year ending
September 30, 2002. The old existing options are attributed to the merger of
Celebration Mining Company with Royal in August 1995.
During the year ended September 30, 2002, the Company's board of directors chose
to make option awards to select officers, directors, consultants and
shareholder/investors. These options were not awarded pursuant to a qualified
plan and carry various terms and conditions. The Company granted a total of
750,000 options at an average exercise price of $1.08 per share. These options
were exercisable immediately. The Company's board of directors has reserved the
right to cancel these awards for non-performance or other reasons.
The fair value of each option granted during fiscal 2002 was estimated on the
grant date using the Black-Scholes Option Price Calculation. The following
assumptions were made in estimating fair value: risk-free interest of 5%,
volatility of 100%, expected life of 3 to 5 years, and no expected dividends.
The value of these options in the amount of $626,790 was included in operating
expense in the financial statements.

During the fourth quarter of the year ended September 30, 2001, the Company
began leasing acreage in a natural gas field in Desoto Parish, Louisiana. As of
the dates of these financial statements, the Company has leased over 3,000
acres. At June 30, 2003 and September 30, 2002, $109,827 and $169,077,
respectively, of leases in Louisiana are included in the attached financial
statements as prepaid mineral leases. In June 2003, under the terms of a joint
venture agreement with Bridas Energy USA, Bridas commenced drilling the first
well that was drilled and logged. This well is now in the process of being
completed for production. The Company is carried for a 25% working interest in
this well. At the date of these financial statements the Joint Venture Partners
are undertaking the drilling and logging of a second well on the project.
Texas
- -----
During the year ended September 30, 2002, the Company acquired an exploration
permit and lease option agreement for an oil well project in Wilbarger County,
Texas known as Pinnacle Reef. During the period ended March 31, 2002, the
Company drilled its initial test well to a total depth of 4,237 feet and
encountered four pay zones. The two lowest pay zones were completed and initial
drill stem tests and flow tests were run. At March 31, the decision was made to
run electricity to the site, install a pump jack and commence commercial
production. At June 30, 2003 and September 30, 2002, $5,400 and $8,100
respectively is included in the attached financial statements as prepaid mineral
leases relating to Texas property. See Note 13.
During the year ended September 30, 2002, the Company sold 40% of the working
interest in this initial well to private investors and two officers of the
Company for $210,000. The Company's initial cost in the portion of the prospect
sold totaled $3,200. Because the Company has received proceeds from the sales
of the working interests in excess of exploration and development costs
attributable to those working interests, the Company recorded a deferred credit.
The balance of this credit at June 30, 2003 and September 30, 2002 is $-0- and
$22,184, respectively. As exploration and development costs of $22,184 and
$197,476, respectively, during the nine months ended June 30, 2003 and the year
ended September 30, 2002 were incurred on this prospect, they were charged
against the original deferred credit. At June 30, 2003 and September 30, 2002,
the Company recorded a receivable from working interest owners in the amount of
$12,873 and $16,037, respectively, to reflect some sales of the prospect's
partial interest. This initial well was placed in production during July 2002.
Two additional exploratory wells (the "2A" and "1B") were drilled on the
property with the Company retaining 100% of the working interest. The 1B was
successfully placed in production and the 2A was converted to a salt-water
disposal well.
The Company then undertook to drill the "2B" well which was funded through the
Cadence Resourced Corporation Limited Partnership. This well was unsuccessful.
During February 2003, the Company completed the West Electra Lake Well on the C
Lease. The Company had previously entered into a 50% working interest joint
venture agreement with

During the nine months ended June 30, 2003, the Company acquired for cash a
22.5% working interest in ten gas wells located in Alpena County, Michigan. See
Note 1. At June 30, 2003, $35,625 of leases in Michigan are included in the
attached financial statements as prepaid mineral leases.
NOTE 11 - OIL AND GAS PRODUCING ACTIVITIES
During the nine months ended June 30, 2003, the Company purchased a 22.5%
working interest before payout and a 20% after payout in four proved gas wells
located in Alpena County, Michigan with the option to participate in any
proposed subsequent wells.
During September 2002, the Company began exploratory well "2B" which is funded
through CRCLP. The Company acts as the managing general partner and may make
contributions to this well under the same terms and conditions as the limited
partner. Terms of the partnership provide funding traunches in approximate
$250,000 increments by the limited partner on selected drilling projects.
Subsequent to the date of these financial statements, CRCLP has determined that
well "2B" has no recoverable reserves and has written off $261,106 on this
property. In June 2003, a limited partner loaned $300,000 to the CRCLP. This
loan was utilized to fund continued drilling and completion of gas wells in
Alpena County, Michigan. As an inducement to the limited partner for providing
this funding, the Company issued the limited partner 120,000 shares of common
stock of the Company. See Notes 5 and 13.
The Securities and Exchange Commission defines proved oil and gas reserves as
those estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids
which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to
be recovered in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and
operating conditions. Proved developed oil and gas reserves are reserves that
can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment
and operating methods.
The Company has not retained the services of an independent geologist to
estimate its oil and gas reserves. Natural gas reserves and petroleum reserves
are estimated by management. The estimates include reserves in which Cadence
holds an economic interest under lease and operating agreements.
Proved reserves do not include amounts that may result from extensions of
currently proved areas or from application of enhanced recovery processes not
yet determined to be commercial in specific reservoirs.

NOTE 11 - OIL AND GAS PRODUCING ACTIVITIES (CONTINUED)
Future net cash flows were computed using quarter-end prices and gas to
quarter-end quantities of proved reserves. Future price changes are considered
only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements. Estimated future
development and production costs are determined by estimating the expenditures
to be incurred in developing and producing the proved oil and gas reserves at
the end of the year, based on year-end costs and assuming continuation of
existing economic conditions. Estimated future income tax expense is normally
calculated by applying year-end statutory tax rates (adjusted for permanent
differences and tax credits) to estimated future pretax net cash flows related
to proved oil and gas reserves, less the tax basis of the properties involved.
These estimates are furnished and calculated in accordance with requirements of
the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the SEC. Estimates of future net
cash flows presented do not represent management's assessment of future
profitability or future cash flows to Cadence. Management's investments and
operating decisions are based on reserves estimated that include proved reserves
prescribed by the SEC as well as probable reserves, and on different price and
cost assumptions from those used here.
It should be recognized that applying current costs and prices and a 10%
standard discount rate does not convey absolute value. The discounted amounts
arrived at are only one measure of the value of proved reserves.
NOTE 12 - NOTES PAYABLE
All of the Company's notes payable are considered short-term. At June 30, 2003,

NOTE 13 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
- ----------
The Company was a defendant in a lawsuit alleging that the Company failed to
transfer common stock in exchange for a mining property interest. In June 1999,
Box Elder County Superior Court rejected the plaintiff's lawsuit and let stand
the Company's countersuit alleging fraudulent misrepresentation. Although the
plaintiff filed an appeal (regarding the originally filed lawsuit), the Utah
Supreme Court rejected the appeal in a judgment rendered on July 31, 2001.
The Company's countersuit, which sought both full title to the aforementioned
mineral property and compensatory damages as well as punitive damages, was
rejected in a jury trial in October 2002. The Company filed an appeal, and in
October 2002, this countersuit was rejected in a jury trial. As a result, the
Company has and will continue to hold an undivided 25% interest in the Vipont
Mine. See Note 3.
Environmental Issues
- ---------------------
The Company is engaged in oil and gas exploration and may become subject to
certain liabilities as they relate to environmental cleanup of well sites or
other environmental restoration procedures as they relate to the drilling of oil
and gas wells and the operation thereof. In the Company's acquisition of
existing or previously drilled well bores, the Company may not be aware of what
environmental safeguards were taken at the time such wells were drilled or
during such time the wells were operated.

Environmental Issues (Continued)
- ----------------------------------
The Company was previously engaged in exploration of mineral properties. These
properties are classified as assets from discontinued operations or were
previously written off as permanently impaired. Although the Company has
discontinued the exploration of mineral properties, the possibility exists that
environmental cleanup or other environmental restoration procedures could remain
to be completed or be mandated by law, causing unpredictable and unexpected
liabilities to arise. At the date of this report, the Company is not aware of
any environmental issues related to any of its assets from discontinued
operations.
Capital Commitments
- --------------------
At June 30, 2003, the Company's future capital commitments are dependent upon
the Company's decision to proceed with additional well development. See Note
10. No accruals have been made in the accompanying financial statements for
these amounts.
Lease Commitments
- ------------------
The Company began leasing office facilities in Walla Walla, Washington
commencing in June 2001. The agreement is a three-year lease with monthly
payments of $400. Total rent paid for this office space during the nine months
ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $3,600.
Cadence Resources Corporation Limited Partnership
- -----------------------------------------------------
On August 1, 2002, the Company formed a limited partnership in the State of
Washington whereby the Company became the managing general partner and an
outside individual investor became the initial limited partner. The entity,
Cadence Resources Corporation Limited Partnership ("CRCLP" or "the Partnership")
was formed to invest in oil and gas properties in Texas and Louisiana. See
Notes 5 and 11.
In connection with the formation of the Partnership, the Company agreed to
contribute $12,500 in cash and its leasehold interest in an oil well ("2B") in
Wilbarger County, Texas and the limited partner contributed $250,000 in cash.
The terms of the Partnership agreement provide that 90% of initial income and
expenses will be allocated to the limited partner and further provide that,
after the limited partner's receipt of funds invested and an 11% return on his
investment, subsequent Partnership profits and losses will be allocated 90% to
the general partner and 10% to the limited partner. In order to ensure
repayment of the limited partner's investment, Cadence has agreed to grant to
the limited partner a security interest in the equipment and fixtures affixed to
wells 1A and 1B in Wilbarger County and agreed to contribute the Company's share
of the cash flows it receives from these two wells to the Partnership. The
Company holds a 60% working interest in well 1A and a 100% working interest in
well 1B. See Notes 5, and 11.

Other Limited Partnerships
- ----------------------------
During the quarter ended June 30, 2003 the Company formed four other limited
partnerships in the state of Washington whereby the Company became the managing
general partner and an outside individual investor became the initial limited
partner. The entities, Cadence West Electra Partners LP, Cadence Antrim Partners
1 LP, Cadence Antrim Partners 2 LP and Cadence Antrim Partners 3 LP were formed
to invest in oil and gas properties. As of June 30, 2003, these entities have

receipt of the quitclaim deed, Fausett transferred all interest in the Crescent
Mine to Shoshone County and delivered to the Company for cancellation
certificates for 8,600 shares of the Company's common stock held by Fausett and
an officer of Fausett. The settlement agreement released the Company from
further obligations under the lease agreement. It also contained a general
release in favor of the Company from the Environmental Protection Agency and
from Shoshone County.
NOTE 15 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company previously sublet office space on a month-to-month basis from one of
its officers in Walla Walla, Washington for $400 per month through May 2001.
During the year ended September 30, 2002, the Company sold several mineral
properties located in Shoshone County, Idaho to Caledonia Silver-Lead Mines,
Inc. See Note 5.
During the year ended September 30, 2002, the Company loaned $35,000 to Dotson
Exploration Company, a related party. The Company also repaid the amount of
$10,000 due to Dotson pursuant to a loan made to the Company by Dotson. Dotson
repaid $33,380 of this loan by transferring marketable securities to the Company
valued at that amount. At September 30, 2002, Dotson Exploration owed the
Company $3,720 which is payable on demand and bears interest at 10% per annum.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2002, the Company loaned Dotson an
additional amount of $20,000 which is payable on demand and bears interest at
the rate of 10% per annum. During the nine months ended June 30, 2003, Dotson
repaid this additional amount.
Because Dotson Exploration Company, Oxford Metallurgical, Inc. and Caledonia
Silver-Lead are controlled by two officers of Cadence, these transactions cannot
be considered to be the product of an arms-length negotiation.
On August 1, 2002, the Company formed a limited partnership whereby the Company
became the managing general partner and an outside individual investor became
the initial limited partner. In connection with the formation of the
Partnership, the Company contributed $12,500 and its leasehold interest in an

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The Company has had minimal revenues from operations during the last two years.
The Company intends to spend its existing cash on exploration on its existing
oil and gas leases in Texas and Louisiana. The Company may also spend funds on
its working interest rights in shallow natural gas exploration in Michigan. All
of these activities are highly speculative and in most instances, companies
which expend monies on oil and gas exploration do not find wells which are
commercially viable.
As noted, the Company will need additional capital to continue to drill its
wells. The amount of capital required is dependant on the success it has on its
upcoming wells because the Company anticipates funding some future drilling of
wells from cash flow out of these next wells if they are commercially
successful. The Company hopes to reduce its dependence on new finances by
completing sufficient wells to fund new wells out of cash flow. Due to the
declining nature of oil & gas production, the Company must continue to explore
and drill new wells to maintain its sources of revenue. There is no assurance,
however, the Company's wells will provide sufficient revenue to fund other
future wells. If they do not prove successful, the Company will have to rely
upon future new finances from outside sources in order to both continue
exploring for new oil and gas deposits, and to continue its operations.
The Company has sold portions of working interest in its wells to finance
drilling. Selling a portion of the working interest enables the Company to raise
some of the risk capital to drill wells from outside investors and thus the "dry
hole risk" to the Company is reduced and may be totally eliminated. The major
disadvantage is that the Company gives up a percentage of its future cash flow
to the working interest investors which will reduce Company revenues and profits
in the future from successful wells.
The Company has entered into a joint venture with Bridas, USA as described
herein to development its property in De Soto Parish, Louisiana and may enter
into other similar joint ventures with Companies whereby another company
provides capital for drilling in exchange for an ownership position in the well
or wells.
The Company management is proposing to spend in excess of several million
dollars on drilling its projects in the next year. The Company has yet to raise
this financing. In the event the Company is unsuccessful in raising these funds,
management will have to scale back on the future business plans of the Company.
This may have the effect of losing its rights, in some circumstances, to drill
and develop some of the properties it now controls or has an interest in.
The Company's auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that the
Company's auditors believe there is substantial doubt that the Company can
continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless it obtains
additional capital. This is because the Company has generated only minimal
revenues and its operating costs exceed its revenues. Further, the Company is
indebted to several of its major shareholders. Accordingly, the Company must
raise cash from sources other than from the sale of oil or gas found on its
property. That cash must be raised from other outside sources. The Company's
only other source for cash at this time are investments or loans by others to
the Company.
The Company has inadequate cash to maintain operations during the next twelve
months. In order to meet its cash requirements the Company may have to raise
additional capital through the sale of securities or loans. As of the date
hereof, the Company has no firm commitments for loans or for purchases of
additional securities and there is no assurance that it will be able to raise
additional capital through loans or the sale of securities in the future. In the
event that the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may have to
suspend or cease operations.
The Company does not intend to conduct any research or development during the
next twelve months other than as described herein. See "Business." The Company
does not intend to purchase a plant or significant equipment, other than
oilfield equipment necessary to outfit its wells for production. The Company
will hire employees on an "as needed" basis. However, the Company does not
expect any significant changes in the number of employees.
Item 3: Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Within the 90 days prior
to the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the "Evaluation
Date"), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and
with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive
Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures
(as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Exchange Act).
Based upon that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and its
Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls
and procedures are effective to ensure that material information required
to be disclosed by it in the reports that it files or submits under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the
time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and
forms. It should be noted, however, that the design of any system of
controls 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,
regardless of how remote.
(b) Changes in internal controls. The Company evaluates its internal controls
for financial reporting purposes on a regular basis. Based upon the
results of these evaluations, the Company considers what revisions,
improvements and/or corrective actions are necessary in order to ensure
that its internal controls are effective. The Company is currently in the
process of improving internal controls relating to transmittal of its
financial information to its accountants in a more timely manner. To
achieve this goal, the Company is hiring a part-time bookkeeper and
implementing a new bookkeeping system which is computerized and will
automate the process of collection of financial data. The Company
maintains separate bank accounts in three locations and is implementing
changes to allow consolidation of its banking accounts to one location,
which will also allow the use of tighter security standards with respect
to signing of company checks. Pending full implementation of these
improvements, the Company has instituted additional procedures and
policies to maintain its ability to accurately record, process and
summarize financial data and prepare financial statements that fully
present its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The Company has not made any other significant changes in the Company's
internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these
controls subsequent to the date of their last evaluation.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

predict accurately or control. The factors listed in the section captioned
"Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation," as well as any
cautionary language in this Form 10-QSB, provide examples of risks,
uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially
from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. Investors
and prospective investors in our common stock should be aware that the
occurrence of the events described in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis
or Plan of Operation" section and elsewhere in this Form 10-QSB could have a
material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial
condition.
