PRESIDENT'S REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS
During the 2005 fiscal year, the Company conducted a detailed exploration
program at its El Nayar silver-gold Project (6,835 hectares), in the Mezquites
Mining District, state of Nayarit, Mexico. The geological work program focused
on a 1.0 km by 1.0 km sector of steep mountainous terrain named La Castellana,
where old mine workings exist. The results of this program demonstrate that the
observed mineralization takes the form of steep narrow veins which would require
underground mining and conventional milling (the ore would not be amenable to
open pit mining or heap leaching). Whereas the property has excellent residual
exploration potential, it does not meet the Company's objective of providing
near term production. Accordingly, the Company wrote off $703,058 of acquisition
and exploration costs. It was disappointing that the El Nayar Project was not
successful. However, the Company believes that it should continue to focus on
acquiring silver properties in Mexico.
On June 29, 2005, Mr. Nick DeMare resigned as President and Mr. Des O'Kell was
appointed President and CEO of the Company. Mr. O'Kell has 16 years operations
and finance experience in the public marketplace. Since 1998 Mr. O'Kell has
headed the firm Eland Jennings Investor Services which enjoyed the success of
providing consulting services to a range of private and publicly traded
corporations seeking financings, listings and communications to the investment
community.
On August 25, 2005, the Company completed a consolidation of its share capital
on a 1 new for 10 old basis and changed its name from Hilton Resources Ltd. to
Rochester Resources Ltd. The share consolidation was considered necessary to
attract new capital.
As of the date of this report, the Company is actively reviewing opportunities
to acquire a property with significant development potential.
On behalf of the Board,
/s/ DES O'KELL
Des O'Kell,
President, CEO and acting CFO
