ITEM 8.01 OTHER ITEMS

On August 20,  2012,  our board of directors  approved an agreement  and plan of
merger to merge with and into our wholly-owned  subsidiary Raider Ventures Inc.,
a Nevada  corporation,  to effect a name change from  Northern  Minerals Inc. to
Raider  Ventures Inc.  Raider  Ventures Inc. was formed solely for the change of
name.

In addition to the name change,  our board of directors  approved to effect a 10
new for one (1) old  forward  stock  split  of our  authorized  and  issued  and
outstanding  shares of common stock. Upon effect of the forward stock split, our
authorized  capital will be increased from  75,000,000 to 750,000,000  shares of
common stock and  correspondingly,  our issued and outstanding  shares of common
stock will be increased from 5,400,000 to 54,000,000 shares of common stock, all
with a par value of $0.001.

These  amendments  are  currently  under  review  with  the  Financial  Industry
Regulatory Authority ("FINRA").  We will announce the completion of FINRA review
and the  effectiveness of these changes on the market by filing a Current Report
on Form 8-K.
