Summary
Prospective investors are urged to read this prospectus in its entirety.
We intend to be in the business of mineral property exploration. To date, we
have not conducted any exploration on our sole mineral property interest, the
Chip mineral claims located near Goldbridge, British Columbia. We acquired a
100% interest, subject to a 2.5% net smelter royalty and a 7.5% gross rock
royalty, in the Chip claims from Richard Simpson of Vancouver, British Columbia.
We paid $2,500 upon the execution of the agreement and must pay him an
additional $17,500 by April 5, 2006 in order to complete the acquisition. We do
not currently have the cash on hand to complete the acquisition and have no
guarantee that we will be able to raise the funds to make the required payment.
Our objective is to conduct mineral exploration activities on the Chip claims in
order to assess whether it possesses economic reserves of gold, silver and
copper. An economic reserve is a specific body of rock that can be economically
mined. We have not yet identified any economic mineralization on the Chip
claims, that is, minerals in sufficient quantities such that extracting them
from the ground would be profitable. Our proposed exploration program is
designed to search for an economic mineralization. Because we have not received
any revenue from operations, our auditor has indicated that there is substantial
doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We were incorporated on February 23, 2005, under the laws of the state of
Nevada. Our principal offices are located at 535 Thurlow Street, Suite 600,
Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 3C2. Our telephone number is 1-888-255-0076.
The Offering:
Securities Being Offered Up to 5,250,000 shares of common stock.
Offering Price The selling shareholders will sell our shares at
$0.01 per share until our shares are quoted on the

Terms of the Offering The selling shareholders will determine when and how
they will sell the common stock offered in this
prospectus.
Termination of the

shares of common stock have been sold, the shares
no longer need to be registered to be sold or we
decide to terminate the registration of the shares.
Securities Issued and
to be Issued 7,750,000 shares of our common stock are issued
and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus.

Risk Factors
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should
carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this
prospectus before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks
occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be
seriously harmed. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any
of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
IF WE DO NOT OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FINANCING, OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL.
Our current operating funds are less than necessary to complete all intended
exploration of the Chip claims, and therefore we will need to obtain additional
financing in order to complete our business plan. We currently do not have any
operations and we have no income. As well, we will not receive any funds from
this registration.
Our business plan calls for significant expenses in connection with the
exploration of the Chip claims. While we have sufficient funds to conduct the
recommended phase one exploration program on the claims, which is estimated to
cost $8,600, we will need additional funds to complete the phase two program,
which is estimated in total to cost $34,000. Even after completing these phases
of exploration, we will not know if we have a commercially viable mineral
deposit.
We will require additional financing to sustain our business operations if we
are not successful in earning revenues once exploration is complete. We do not
currently have any arrangements for financing and may not be able to find such
financing if required.
BECAUSE WE HAVE NOT COMMENCED BUSINESS OPERATIONS, WE FACE A HIGH RISK OF
BUSINESS FAILURE.
We have not yet commenced exploration on the Chip claims. Accordingly, we have
no way to evaluate the likelihood that our business will be successful. We were
incorporated on February 23, 2005 and to date have been involved primarily in
organizational activities and the acquisition of the Chip claims. We have not
earned any revenues as of the date of this prospectus. Potential investors
should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new mineral
exploration companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The
likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses,
difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the
exploration of the mineral properties that we plan to undertake. These potential
problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to
exploration, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current
estimates.
6
Prior to completion of our exploration stage, we anticipate that we will incur
increased operating expenses without realizing any revenues. We therefore expect
to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future. We recognize that if we
are unable to generate significant revenues from development of the Chip claims
and the production of minerals from the claim, we will not be able to earn
profits or continue operations.
There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that
we will prove successful, and it is doubtful that we will generate any operating
revenues or ever achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in
addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO MAKE THE $17,500 PAYMENT TO COMPLETE THE ACQUISITION
OF THE CHIP CLAIMS BY APRIL 5, 2006, WE WILL LOSE OUR INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY
AND OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL.
Upon the execution of the agreement to acquire the Chip mineral claims, we paid
the vendor $2,500. In order to complete the purchase, we must pay him an
additional $17,500 by April 5, 2006. We do not currently have the cash on hand
to complete the acquisition and have no guarantee that we will be able to raise
the funds to make the required payment. If we are unable to make the payment by
the deadline date, we will lose our interest in the Chip mineral claims and our
business will fail.
BECAUSE OF THE SPECULATIVE NATURE OF EXPLORATION OF MINING PROPERTIES, THERE IS
A SUBSTANTIAL RISK THAT OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL.
The search for valuable minerals as a business is extremely risky. The
likelihood of our mineral claim containing economic mineralization or reserves
of gold, silver and copper is extremely remote. Exploration for minerals is a
speculative venture necessarily involving substantial risk. In all
probability, the Chip claims does not contain any reserves and funds that we
spend on exploration will be lost. As well, problems such as unusual or
unexpected formations and other conditions are involved in mineral exploration
and often result in unsuccessful exploration efforts. In such a case, we would
be unable to complete our business plan.
WE NEED TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN IF OUR BUSINESS IS TO SUCCEED.
OUR INDEPENDENT AUDITOR HAS RAISED DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A
GOING CONCERN.
The report of our independent accountant to our audited financial statements for
the period ended March 31, 2005 indicates that there are a number of factors
that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our continuation is dependent upon our ability to generate profitable operations
in the future and/or to obtain necessary financing to meet our obligations and
repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become
due. If we are not able to continue as a going concern, it is likely investors
will lose all of their investment.
BECAUSE WE ONLY HAVE MINERAL EXPLORATION RIGHTS TO THE CHIP CLAIMS, THE
LANDOWNER MAY BE ABLE TO PREVENT US FROM CONDUCTING EXPLORATION ON THE CLAIMS.
We hold the exclusive right to explore the Chip mineral claims for
mineralization and to remove minerals from the property. However, our rights are
subject to those held by the fee simple property owner, the government of
British Columbia, to make use of the land. If the government decides to develop,
sell or make any other use of the land, our right to explore the property could
be impacted. As a result, we would not be able to continue exploration on the
property and we would be forced to abandon our business plan.
BECAUSE OF THE INHERENT DANGERS INVOLVED IN MINERAL EXPLORATION, THERE IS A RISK
THAT WE MAY INCUR LIABILITY OR DAMAGES AS WE CONDUCT OUR BUSINESS.
The search for valuable minerals involves numerous hazards. As a result, we may
become subject to liability for such hazards, including pollution, cave-ins and
other hazards against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not
to insure. The payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on
our financial position.
EVEN IF WE DISCOVER COMMERCIAL RESERVES OF PRECIOUS METALS ON THE CHIP CLAIMS,
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY COMMENCE COMMERCIAL PRODUCTION.
The Chip claims do not contain any known bodies of mineralization. If our
exploration programs are successful in establishing gold, silver and
copper of commercial tonnage and grade, we will require additional funds in
order to place the Chip claims into commercial production. We may not be able to
obtain such financing.
BECAUSE THE CHIP MINERAL CLAIMS HAVE NOT BEEN EXAMINED BY ANY PROFESSIONAL
GEOLOGIST OR MINING ENGINEER RETAINED BY US, THERE IS A GREATER RISK THAT OUR
PROPERTY MAY NOT CONTAIN ECONOMIC MINERALIZATION.
In connection with our acquisition of the Chip mineral claims, we retained Mr.
George E. Nicholson, a professional geologist, to prepare a report on the
property. However, Mr. Nicholson's report was based on his review of past
exploration data respecting the Chip mineral claims. Because we have not
retained a geologist to examine our mineral claims in person, there is a greater
risk that our property may not contain economic mineralization.
BECAUSE OUR PRESIDENT HAS OTHER BUSINESS INTERESTS, HE MAY NOT BE ABLE OR
WILLING TO DEVOTE A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF TIME TO OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS,
CAUSING OUR BUSINESS TO FAIL.
Our president, Mr. Steven Cozine, intends to devote approximately 30% of his
business time providing his services to us. While Mr. Cozine presently possesses
adequate time to attend to our interests, it is possible that the demands on Mr.
Cozine from his other obligations could increase with the result that he would
no longer be able to devote sufficient time to the management of our business.
BECAUSE WE DO NOT HAVE ANY EMPLOYEES OTHER THAN OUR PRESIDENT, WE WILL BE
DEPENDENT ON OUR MANAGEMENT AND INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS TO CARRY OUT OUR
BUSINESS PLAN.
We do not have any employees other than our president, Steven Cozine. To carry
out our business plan, we will have to retain independent contractors to conduct
exploration work on the Chip claims. If we are unable to retain personnel when
needed, our ability to conduct exploration may be delayed.
BECAUSE OUR SOLE DIRECTOR HAS NO TECHNICAL EXPERIENCE IN MINERAL EXPLORATION,
OUR BUSINESS HAS A HIGHER RISK OF FAILURE.
Our sole director has no technical training in the field of geology and
specifically in the areas of exploring for, starting and operating a mine. As a
result, we may not be able to recognize and take advantage of potential
acquisition and exploration opportunities in the sector without the aid of
qualified geological consultants. As well, with no direct training or
experience, our management may not be fully aware of the specific requirements
related to working in this industry. His decisions and choices may not be well
thought out and our operations, earnings and ultimate financial success may
suffer irreparable harm as a result.
7
IF A MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK DOES NOT DEVELOP, SHAREHOLDERS MAY BE UNABLE TO
SELL THEIR SHARES.
There is currently no market for our common stock and no certainty that a market
will develop. We currently plan to apply for listing of our common stock on the
over the counter bulletin board upon the effectiveness of the registration
statement, of which this prospectus forms a part. Our shares may never trade on
the bulletin board. If no market is ever developed for our shares, it will be
difficult for shareholders to sell their stock. In such a case, shareholders may
find that they are unable to achieve benefits from their investment.
A PURCHASER IS PURCHASING PENNY STOCK WHICH LIMITS HIS OR HER ABILITY TO SELL
THE STOCK.
The shares offered by this prospectus constitute penny stock under the Exchange
Act. The shares will remain penny stock for the foreseeable future. The
classification of penny stock makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to
sell the stock into a secondary market, thus limiting investment liquidity. Any
broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her
shares in our company will be subject to rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the
Exchange Act. Rather than creating a need to comply with those rules, some
broker-dealers will refuse to attempt to sell penny stock.
Please refer to the "Plan of Distribution" section for a more detailed
discussion of penny stock and related broker-dealer restrictions.
Forward-Looking Statements
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties. We use words such as anticipate, believe, plan, expect, future,
intend and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking statements. You
should not place too much reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our
actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these
forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks faced by us
described in the "Risk Factors" section and elsewhere in this prospectus.
Use Of Proceeds
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock offered
through this prospectus by the selling shareholders.
Determination Of Offering Price
The selling shareholders will sell our shares at $0.01 per share until our
shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, and thereafter at prevailing market
prices or privately negotiated prices. We determined this offering price, based
upon the price of the last sale of our common stock to investors.
Dilution
The common stock to be sold by the selling shareholders is common stock that is
currently issued and outstanding. Accordingly, there will be no dilution to our
existing shareholders.
8

Each of the above shareholders beneficially owns and has sole voting and
investment over all shares or rights to the shares registered in his or her
name. The numbers in this table assume that none of the selling shareholders
sells shares of common stock not being offered in this prospectus or purchases
additional shares of common stock, and assumes that all shares offered are sold.
The percentages are based on 7,750,000 shares of common stock outstanding on the
date of this prospectus.
None of the selling shareholders:
(1) has had a material relationship with us other than as a shareholder at
any time within the past three years;
(2) has ever been one of our officers or directors; or
(3) is a broker-dealer or affiliate of a broker dealer.
Plan Of Distribution
The selling shareholders may sell some or all of their common stock in one or
more transactions, including block transactions.
The selling shareholders will sell our shares at $0.01 per share until our
shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, and thereafter at prevailing market
prices or privately negotiated prices. We determined this offering price
arbitrarily based upon the price of the last sale of our common stock to
investors. The shares may also be sold in compliance with the Securities and
Exchange Commission's Rule 144.
11
We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock. These
are estimated to be $9,500. The selling shareholders, however, will pay any
commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any
sale of the common stock.
The selling shareholders must comply with the requirements of the Securities Act
and the Exchange Act in the offer and sale of the common stock. In particular,
during such times as the selling shareholders may be deemed to be engaged in a
distribution of the common stock, and therefore be considered to be an
underwriter, they must comply with applicable law and may, among other things:
1. Not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our
common stock;
2. Furnish each broker or dealer through which common stock may be
offered, such copies of this prospectus, as amended from time to time,
as may be required by such broker or dealer; and
3. Not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any
person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under
the Exchange Act.
The Securities Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that regulate
broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny
stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other
than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on
the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with
respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or
system).
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny
stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a standardized risk
disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which:
* contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market
for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;
* contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the
customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with
respect to a violation of such duties;
* contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market,
including "bid" and "ask" prices for penny stocks and the significance
of the spread between the bid and ask price;
* contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary
actions;
* defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct
of trading penny stocks; and
* contains such other information and is in such form (including
language, type, size, and format) as the Commission shall require by
rule or regulation;
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to proceeding with any transaction in
a penny stock, the customer:
* with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
* details of the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson
in the transaction;
* the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other
comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the
market for such stock; and
* monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny
stock held in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a
penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a
special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for
the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt
of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving
penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.
These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading
activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to
these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling
those securities.

officer.
Description Of Business
In General
We intend to commence operations as an exploration stage company. We will be
engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties with a view to
exploiting any mineral deposits we discover. We own a 100% beneficial interest
in one mineral claim known as the Chip claims. There is no assurance that a
commercially viable mineral deposit exists on the Chip claims. We do not have
any current plans to acquire interests in additional mineral properties, though
we may consider such acquisitions in the future.
15
Mineral property exploration is typically conducted in phases. Each subsequent
phase of exploration work is recommended by a geologist based on the results
from the most recent phase of exploration. We have not yet commenced the initial
phase of exploration on the Chip claims. Once we have completed each phase of
exploration, we will make a decision as to whether or not we proceed with each
successive phase based upon the analysis of the results of that program. Our
director will make this decision based upon the recommendations of the
independent geologist who oversees the program and records the results.
Our plan of operation is to conduct exploration work on the Chip claims in order
to ascertain whether it possesses economic quantities of gold, silver and
copper. There can be no assurance that an economic mineral deposit exists on the
Chip claims until appropriate exploration work is completed.
Even if we complete our proposed exploration programs on the Chip claims and we
are successful in identifying a mineral deposit, we will have to spend
substantial funds on further drilling and engineering studies before we will
know if we have a commercially viable mineral deposit.
Chip Claims Purchase Agreement
On April 5, 2005, we entered into a mineral purchase and sale agreement with
Richard SImpson of Vancouver, British Columbia, whereby he sold to us a 100%
undivided right title and interest in three mineral claims, subject to a 2.5%
net smelter royalty and a 7.5% gross rock royalty, located in the Lillooet
Mining Division of British Columbia, Canada. A net smelter royalty is a
percentage of the amount of money that we would receive from the sale of
minerals from the property to a smelter, less refining charges, ore treatment
charges, penalties and transportation costs. The net smelter royalty only
applies to metals. We can purchase 1.5% of the net smelter royalty for
$1,000,000 within 12 months of the commencement of commercial production. We
must pay Mr. Simpson advance annual royalties of $25,000 commencing on April 5,
2008.
A gross rock royalty is a percentage of proceeds we receive from the sale of
rock taken from the property, less treatment costs, transport fees, marketing
costs and taxes. The gross rock royalty applies to the sale of non-metals from
the property such as coal, petroleum products, soil, sand and gravel. There is
no expectation that any of these non-metals will be identified on the Chip
claims, but the vendor of the property has included the gross rock royalty in
the agreement in case any of these products are discovered.
In accordance with the agreement, we paid $2,500 to Mr. Simpson by April 15,
2005. In order to complete our acquisition of the Chip claims, we must pay an
additional $17,500 to Mr. Simpson by April 5, 2006.
Location and Access
The Chip claims are located 15 kilometers south-southwest of the village of
Bralorne in south-western British Columbia. The property is accessed by
helicopter from the town of Pemberton, 25 kilometers to the southwest. Alternate
access to lower elevations of the Chip 2 claim is available via the Noel Creek
forest access road from Bralorne.
The claims are situated on, and about, the divide between the headwaters of Noel
and Ault Creeks within rugged but accessible terrain. Several small lakes and
ponds are found in the north-eastern and south-western portions of the claim
group. Topographic elevations range from 1,676 meters to 2,408 meters.
16
The majority of the Chip property is situated above the treeline. Some slopes
below 1,980 meters near the upper portions of Ault Creek contain locally think
patches of alpine balsam and spruce.
There is no available source of power located on the property. We will need to
use portable generators if we require a power source for exploration of the
property.
Claim Data
The Chip property consists of three mineral claims comprising a total of
1,106.331 hectares. A "mineral claim" refers to a specific section of land over
which a title holder owns rights to explore the ground and subsurface, and
extract minerals The following is a table of pertinent data regarding the
claims:
Claim Name Tenure No. Hectares Expiry Date
Chip 1 510121 491.787 April 3, 2006
Chip 2 510122 307.271 April 3, 2006
Chip 3 510126 307.273 April 3, 2006
These claims have been transferred from the original claim staker, Richard
Simpson, to Steven Cozine, our president, who holds them in trust for us.
In British Columbia, to extend the expiry date of each claim by one year, annual
assessment work or cash in lieu is required of $0.40 per hectare in years one to
three followed by $0.80 per hectare thereafter. There is also a filing fee of
$0.04 per hectare. In order to retain title to the property, we must conduct
at least $442.53 on the Chip claims by April 3, 2006, thereby extending
the expiry date for an additional year.
The fee simple owner of the real property underlying the claims that comprise
the Chip mineral claims is the government of British Columbia. The government
has the right to sell title to this land to a third party, but is unlikely to do
so given the remote location of the property. We have the right to explore the
claims for mineralization, provided such exploration does not unreasonably
disturb the fee simple owner's use of the land. Because the property is
undeveloped, the British Columbia government's rights to the land are unlikely
to be impacted.
Mineralization
Mineralization on the Chip claims consists of four types:
1. disseminated to semi-massive coarse grained pyrite in silica based
volcanic rocks
- disseminated rock mineralization is small particles of possibly
valuable ore minerals, spread more or less uniformly through the
surrounding rock; this is distinct from massive ore wherein the
valuable minerals occur in almost solid form with very little
waste material included
- pyrite, also known as "fool's gold", is a bright yellow mineral
that is often found in proximity to gold and copper
mineralization
2. coarse, massive pyrite-silica lenses:
- a lens is a body of ore that is thick in the middle and tapers
towards the ends
- pyrite and silica are two minerals that are often found in close
proximity to valuable metals such as gold and copper
3. quartz-sphalerite
- a rock type consisting of a combination of silica and zinc
sulphide.
4. siliceous, pyritic lenses
- the term siliceous refers to a rock that contains an abudance of
quartz
The mineralization is found in widths from a few centimetres to 0.5 meters. The
mineralization in the northeast portion of the claims occurs within a large
gossan with a width of at least 125 meters and traceable for almost two
kilometres. Gossans are rusty colored surface rock which is caused by the
oxidation of pyrite. Since pyrite is often associated with mineral deposits,
gossans can be a guide to discovering them.
17
There is no equipment or other infrastructure facilities located on the Chip
property. As well, the property is free of any mineral workings.
Exploration History
The first record of activity in the area of the now defined Chip claims was in
the mid-1930's when mineralization was first discovered. In 1941, Bralorne Mines
Ltd. completed 1,100 feet of diamond drilling on the claims.
During 1980, Mr. J. Dawson and Mr. K. Daughtry conducted a program of
prospecting, mapping and sampling on the property and further work was
recommended. Prospecting involves analyzing rocks on the property surface with a
view to discovering indications of potential mineralization. Geological mapping
involves plotting previous exploration data relating to a property on a map in
order to determine the best property locations to conduct subsequent exploration
work. Sampling consists of gathering soil samples or pieces of rock from the
property that appear to contain precious metals such as gold and silver, or
industrial metals such as copper. All samples gathered are sent to a laboratory
where they are crushed and analysed for metal content.
In 1983, Placer Development Ltd. completed a program of sampling and geophysical
surveys on the property. Geophysical surveying is the search for mineral
deposits by measuring the physical property of near-surface rocks, and looking
for unusual responses caused by the presence of mineralization. Electrical,
magnetic, gravitational, seismic and radioactive properties are the ones most
commonly measured. Geophysical surveys are applied to gain further information
from the property surface and subsurface to allow better informed opinions
concerning the merit of properties.
In 1986, Geoquest Consulting Ltd. conducted a program of mapping and sampling on
the property and recommended further exploration of the claims.
Geology Report
We retained Mr. George Nicholson, a professional geologist, to prepare a geology
report on the Chip claims. Mr. Nicholson recommends an initial exploration
program on the property consisting of two phases. He bases these recommendations
on previous gold, silver and copper found in rocks and soil in the eastern area
of the property.The first phase would consist of mapping, prospecting and
sampling.
The first phase is estimated to cost $8,600 as described below.
Budget - Phase I
Geologist 4 day @ $400/day $ 1,600
Geotechnician 4 days @ $300/day $ 1,200
Samples 60 samples @ $20 each $ 1,200
Helicopter 2 hours @ $1,400/hour $ 2,100
Camp, Food Supplies $ 500
Truck Rental and Fuel $ 500
Report $ 1,500
Total $ 8,600
The second phase would consist of a blast trenching program. Blast trenching
involves removing surface soil and rock using explosives. Samples are then taken
from the bedrock below and analysed for mineral content. The second phase would
cost approximately $34,000 as outlined below.
18
Budget - Phase II
Blasting Crew 10 days @ $1,000/day $10,000
Camp and Support $ 5,000
Sampling $ 2,500
Helicopter 10 hours @ $1,400/hour $14,000
Report $ 2,500
Total $34,000
Compliance with Government Regulation
We will be required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of
governmental authorities and agencies applicable to the exploration of minerals
in Canada generally, and in British Columbia specifically.
We will have to sustain the cost of reclamation and environmental mediation for
all exploration and development work undertaken that results in surface
distrubance, such as roads and drill sites. The amount of these costs is
not known at this time as we do not know the extent of the exploration program
that will be undertaken beyond completion of the currently planned work
programs. Because there is presently no information on the size, tenor, or
quality of any resource or reserve at this time, it is impossible to assess the
impact of any capital expenditures on earnings or our competitive position in
the event a potentially economic deposit is discovered.
If we enter into production, the cost of complying with permit and regulatory
environment laws will be greater than in the exploration phases because the
impact on the project area is greater. Permits and regulations will control all
aspects of any production program if the project continues to that stage because
of the potential impact on the environment. Examples of regulatory requirements
include:
- Water discharge will have to meet water standards;
- Dust generation will have to be minimal or otherwise re-mediated;
- Dumping of material on the surface will have to be re-contoured
and re-vegetated;
- An assessment of all material to be left on the surface will need
to be environmentally benign;
- Ground water will have to be monitored for any potential
contaminants;
- The socio-economic impact of the project will have to be
evaluated and if deemed negative, will have to be re-mediated;
and
- There will have to be an impact report of the work on the local
fauna and flora.

Reports to Security Holders
Although we are not required to deliver a copy of our annual report to our
security holders, we will voluntarily send a copy of our annual report,
including audited financial statements, to any registered shareholder who
requests it. We will not be a reporting issuer with the Securities and Exchange
Commission until our registration statement on Form SB-2 is declared effective.
We have filed a registration statement on Form SB-2, under the Securities Act of
1933, with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the shares of
our common stock offered through this prospectus. This prospectus is filed as a
part of that registration statement, but does not contain all of the information
contained in the registration statement and exhibits. Statements made in the
registration statement are summaries of the material terms of the referenced
contracts, agreements or documents of the company. We refer you to our
registration statement and each exhibit attached to it for a more detailed
description of matters involving the company, and the statements we have made in
this prospectus are qualified in their entirety by reference to these additional
materials. You may inspect the registration statement, exhibits and schedules
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission at the Commission's principal
office in Washington, D.C. Copies of all or any part of the registration
statement may be obtained from the Public Reference Section of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, 100 F Street NE, Washington, D.C. 20002. Please call
the Commission at 1-800-SEC-0330 for further information on the operation of the
public reference rooms. The Securities and Exchange Commission also maintains a
web site at http://www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy statements and
information regarding registrants that file electronically with the Commission.
Our registration statement and the referenced exhibits can also be found on this
site.
Plan Of Operations
Our plan of operation for the next twelve months is to complete the recommended
phase one and two exploration programs on the Chip claims consisting of a
geological mapping, prospecting and geochemical sampling. We anticipate that
these exploration programs will cost approximately $8,600 and $34,000
respectively. To date, we have not commenced exploration on the Chip claims.
We plan to commence the phase one exploration program on the Chip claims in the
fall of 2005. The program should take approximately up to a one month to
complete. We will then undertake the phase two work program during the spring of
2006. This program will take approximately two months to complete. We do not
have any verbal or written agreement regarding the retention of any qualified
engineer or geologist for this exploration program.
As well, we anticipate spending an additional $15,000 on administrative fees,
including fees payable in connection with the filing of this registration
statement and complying with reporting obligations.
Total expenditures over the next 12 months are therefore expected to be $57,600.
While we have enough funds to cover the estimated cost of the phase one
exploration program, we will require additional funding in order to cover
administrative costs, phase two exploration costs and any additional recommended
exploration on the Chip claims following the completion of the phase two
program. Our current cash on hand is sufficient for approximately six months.
We will have to raise additional funds within that time period in order to
effect our plan of operations. We anticipate that additional funding will be
in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock or from
director loans. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity
financing or loans.
20
Results Of Operations For The Period From Inception Through June 30, 2005
We have not earned any revenues from our incorporation on February 23, 2005 to
June 30, 2005. We do not anticipate earning revenues unless we enter into
commercial production on the Chip claims, which is doubtful. We have not
commenced the exploration stage of our business and can provide no assurance
that we will discover economic mineralization on the Chip claims, or if such
minerals are discovered, that we will enter into commercial production.
We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $1,256 for the period from our
inception on February 23, 2005 to June 30, 2005. These operating expenses were
comprised of mineral property acquisition costs of $2,500, organization costs of
$500, accounting fees of $600 and bank charges of $156.
In the period from our inception on February 23, 2005 to June 30, 2005, there
were no off-balance sheet arrangements.
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining
financing to pursue exploration activities. For these reasons our auditors
believe that there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a
going concern.
Description Of Property
We own the mineral exploration rights relating to the Chip mineral claims. We do
not own any real property interest in the Chip claims or any other property.
Market For Common Equity And Related Stockholder Matters
No Public Market for Common Stock
There is presently no public market for our common stock. We anticipate applying
for trading of our common stock on the over the counter bulletin board upon the
effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a
part. However, we can provide no assurance that our shares will be traded on the
bulletin board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize.
Stockholders of Our Common Shares
As of the date of this registration statement, we have 32 registered
shareholders.
Rule 144 Shares
A total of 2,500,000 shares of our common stock are available for resale to the
public after March 2, 2006 in accordance with the volume and trading limitations
of Rule 144 of the Act. In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a
person who has beneficially owned shares of a company's common stock for at
least one year is entitled to sell within any three month period a number of
shares that does not exceed the greater of:
21
1. 1% of the number of shares of the company's common stock then
outstanding which, in our case, will equal 77,500 shares as of
the date of this prospectus; or
2. the average weekly trading volume of the company's common stock
during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice
on Form 144 with respect to the sale.
Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice
requirements and to the availability of current public information about the
company.
Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not one of the company's affiliates at any
time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned
the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, is entitled to sell
shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume
limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144.
As of the date of this prospectus, persons who are our affiliates hold all of
the 2,500,000 shares that may be sold pursuant to Rule 144.
Registration Rights
We have not granted registration rights to the selling shareholders or to any
other persons.
Dividends
There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that
prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do
prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the
distribution of the dividend:
1. we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the
usual course of business; or
2. our total assets would be less than the sum of our total
liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the
rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to
those receiving the distribution.
We have not declared any dividends, and we do not plan to declare any dividends
in the foreseeable future.

ZANDARIA VENTURES INC.
(A Pre-exploration Stage Company)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2005
Note 1 Nature and Continuance of Operations
------------------------------------
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February
23, 2005 and is in the pre-exploration stage. The Company has
acquired a mineral property located in the Province of British
Columbia, Canada and has not yet determined whether this property
contains reserves that are economically recoverable. The
recoverability of amounts from the property will be dependent upon
the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, confirmation
of the Company's interest in the underlying property, the ability
of the Company to obtain necessary financing to satisfy the
expenditure requirements under the property agreement and to
complete the development of the property and upon future
profitable production or proceeds for the sale thereof.
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis. The Company has accumulated a deficit of $3,756 since
inception, has yet to achieve profitable operations and further
losses are anticipated in the development of its business, raising
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. Its ability to continue as a going concern is
dependent upon the ability of the Company to generate profitable
operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing
to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from
normal business operations when they come due. These financial
statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and
classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary
should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The
Company anticipates that additional funding will be in the form of
equity financing from the sale of common stock. The Company may
also seek to obtain short-term loans from the directors of the
Company. There are no current arrangements in place for equity
funding or short-term loans.
The Company has adopted March 31 as its fiscal year-end.
Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
------------------------------------------
Basis of Presentation
---------------------
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. Because a precise determination of many
assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the
preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily
involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful
judgement. Actual results may vary from these estimates.
The financial statements have, in management's opinion, been
properly prepared within the framework of the significant
accounting policies summarized below:

Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2005
- - Page 2
Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - (cont'd)
------------------------------------------
Pre-exploration Stage Company
-----------------------------
The Company complies with Financial Accounting Standard Board
Statement ("FAS") No. 7 and The Securities and Exchange Commission
Exchange Act Guide 7 for its characterization of the Company as
pre-exploration stage.
Mineral Property Costs
----------------------
Costs of lease, acquisition, exploration, carrying and retaining
unproven mineral properties are expensed as incurred.
Financial Instruments
---------------------
The carrying value of cash, accounts payable and accrued
liabilities and due to related party approximates their fair value
because of the short maturity of these instruments. Unless
otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is
not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks
arising from these financial instruments.
Environmental Costs
-------------------
Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are
expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate
to an existing condition caused by past operations, and which do
not contribute to current or future revenue generation, are
expensed. Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments
and/or remedial efforts are probable, and the cost can be
reasonably estimated. Generally, the timing of these accruals
coincides with the earlier of completion of a feasibility study or
the Company's commitments to plan of action based on the then
known facts.
Income Taxes
------------
The Company uses the assets and liability method of accounting for
income taxes pursuant to FAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income
Taxes". Under the assets and liability method of FAS No. 109,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future
tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the
financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to
apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - (cont'd)
------------------------------------------
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
--------------------------------
The Company reports basic loss per share in accordance with the
FAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". Basic loss per share is
computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding
during the period. Diluted loss per share has not been provided as
it would be anti-dilutive.
New Accounting Standards
------------------------
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet
effective, accounting standards if currently adopted could have a
material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
Note 3 Mineral Property
----------------
Pursuant to a mineral property purchase and sale agreement dated
March 29, 2005, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the 3
mineral claims near Goldbridge, located in the Province of British
Columbia, Canada for $20,000.
Note 4 Capital Stock
-------------
During the period from February 23, 2005 to June 30, 2005 the
Company issued 7,750,000 common shares for cash proceeds of
$20,100.
Note 5 Deferred Tax Assets
-------------------
The significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets
are as follows:
<table>

2005
<s> <c>
Deferred Tax Assets
Non-capital loss carryforward $ 3,756
Less: valuation allowance for deferred tax asset (3,756)
----------------
$ -
================
</table>
The amount taken into income as deferred tax assets must reflect
that portion of the income tax loss carryforwards that is more
likely than not to be realized from future operations. The company
has chosen to provide an allowance of 100% against all available
income tax loss carryforwards, regardless of their time of expiry.

Note 6 Corporation Income Tax Losses
-----------------------------
At June 30, 2005, the Company has accumulated non-capital losses
totalling $3,756, which are available to reduce taxable income in
future taxation years. These losses will expire beginning in 2025.
Note 7 Related Party Transaction
-------------------------
The amount from a related party is an advance for $1,800 to a
director of the Company on March 22, 2005. This amount is
unsecured, non-interest bearing and payable within six months
from the advance date.

Changes In And Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and
Financial Disclosure
We have had no changes in or disagreements with our accountants.
Until ______________, all dealers that effect transactions in these securities
whether or not participating in this offering, may be required to deliver a
prospectus. This is in addition to the dealer's obligation to deliver a
prospectus when acting as underwriters and with respect to their unsold
allotments or subscriptions.
Part II
Information Not Required In The Prospectus
Indemnification Of Directors And Officers
Our officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised
Statutes (the "NRS") and our bylaws.
Under the NRS, director immunity from liability to a company or its shareholders
for monetary liabilities applies automatically unless it is specifically limited
by a company's articles of incorporation that is not the case with our articles
of incorporation. Excepted from that immunity are:
(1) a willful failure to deal fairly with the company or its
shareholders in connection with a matter in which the
director has a material conflict of interest;
(2) a violation of criminal law (unless the director had
reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was
lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her
conduct was unlawful);
(3) a transaction from which the director derived an improper
personal profit; and
(4) willful misconduct.
Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the
fullest extent not prohibited by Nevada law; provided, however, that we may
modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with our
directors and officers; and, provided, further, that we shall not be required to
indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding (or part
thereof) initiated by such person unless:
(1) such indemnification is expressly required to be made by
law;
(2) the proceeding was authorized by our Board of Directors;
(3) such indemnification is provided by us, in our sole
discretion, pursuant to the powers vested us under Nevada
law; or
(4) such indemnification is required to be made pursuant to the
bylaws.
33
Our bylaws provide that we will advance all expenses incurred to any person who
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending
or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was our director or
officer, or is or was serving at our request as a director or executive officer
of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior
to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request. This
advanced of expenses is to be made upon receipt of an undertaking by or on
behalf of such person to repay said amounts should it be ultimately determined
that the person was not entitled to be indemnified under our bylaws or
otherwise.
Our bylaws also provide that no advance shall be made by us to any officer in
any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made: (a) by the
board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who
were not parties to the proceeding; or (b) if such quorum is not obtainable, or,
even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by
independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the
decision- making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate
clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that
such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to our best interests.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
1. To file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:
a. include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities
Act of 1933;
b. reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or
together, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
in this registration statement; and notwithstanding the forgoing, any
increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total
dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may
be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the
provisions above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other
than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of our directors,
officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit
or proceeding, is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling
person sin connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and
we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
