(AN EXPLORATION STAGE ENTERPRISE)
NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
OCTOBER 31, 2003
1. BASIS OF OPERATIONS
Jaguar Resources Corporation f/k/a Star Resources Corporation ("the Company") is
engaged in the business of exploring for and, if warranted, developing mineral
properties. The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting
principles. The consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance
with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial
information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by Canadian and United States generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended October 31, 2003
and 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ended January 31, 2004.
SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES
The nature of the Company's operations results in significant expenditures for
the acquisition and exploration of properties. None of the Company's properties
have been proven to have economically recoverable reserves or proven reserves at
the current stage of exploration. As discussed in Note 2, during the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2003 the Company wrote off all costs capitalized as mineral
properties and deferred expenditures based upon exploration results.
Direct acquisitions, evaluation and exploration expenditures are capitalized,
reduced by sundry income, to be amortized over the recoverable mineral reserves
if a property becomes commercially developed. When an area is disproved or
abandoned, the acquisition costs and related deferred expenditures are written
off. Management's assessment of the net realizable value of mineral properties
and deferred expenditures requires considerable judgment and estimates which
could change significantly in the near term.
All amounts are in Canadian dollars unless noted otherwise. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto.
2. MINERAL PROPERTIES AND DEFERRED EXPENDITURES
TOCANTINZINHO PROPERTIES
In August 2003 the Company acquired a total of 28,275 hectares in the Tapaj s
gold district in Para State, Brazil under an option agreement with two
individuals. The option agreement entitles the Company to acquire a 100%
interest in the Tocantinzinho Properties over a four-year period in
consideration for the staged payment of US$465,000, the staged issuance of
2,600,000 shares of the Company and the expenditure of US$1,000,000. A total of
US$300,000 must be expended by July 31, 2004. Additionally, the option
agreement requires the Company to assume all existing obligations of the
optionors to the owners of the mineral rights of the Tocantinzinho Properties
(the "Underlying Agreements") totaling US$1,600,000 over a four-year period, of
which US$80,000 is due in the year ended July 31, 2004. One of the optionors
entered into a consulting agreement with the Company for an 18-month period at a
rate of US$7,000 per month. The payments under the option agreement, the
Underlying Agreements and the consulting agreement are considered expenditures
for purposes of meeting the required total and initial annual expenditures of
US$1,000,000 and $300,000 discussed above. The option agreement is cancelable
by the Company without obligation other than the initial payment of US$75,000
and 1,100,000 shares of the Company and the expenditure of US$300,000 by July
31, 2004.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
OCTOBER 31, 2003
2. MINERAL PROPERTIES AND DEFERRED EXPENDITURES (CONTINUED)
The Company received approval for the acquisition from the TSX Venture Exchange
in August 2003 and made the initial payment required by the option agreement to
the optionors, consisting of 1,100,000 common shares of the Company and
US$75,000. The shares are subject to resale restrictions for a period of four
months.
The optionors are entitled to a sliding scale net smelter return royalty ranging
from 2.5% for gold prices below US$400 per ounce and 3.5% for gold prices in
excess of US$500 per ounce. Royalties will be reduced by the amount of any
royalties payable to underlying owners and the Government of Brazil. The Company
proposes to carry out a 1500 meter drilling program on the project in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2004. During the second and third quarters of fiscal 2004 net
capitalized costs of $619,426 related to the Tocantinzinho Properties were
recorded. Included in that amount were totals of $494,479 and $124,947 related
to acquisition and exploration, respectively.
ARKANSAS PROPERTIES
Black Lick and Twin Knobs II Properties
On February 5, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with Potlatch
Corporation to purchase the surface rights to approximately 480 acres in Pike
County, Arkansas located adjacent to the Company's American Mine Property for a
total of approximately $313,000 (U.S.). In December 1999, the Company entered
into an agreement with a third party lessor to lease the undersurface rights
below the 480 acres described above. The consideration paid for the lease was
$50,000 (U.S.), 500,000 shares of the Company and the transfer to the lessor of
the surface rights which the Company purchased from Potlatch Corporation as
described above. The lease grants the rights to explore, develop and extract
diamond bearing material lying below overburden and the upper 50 feet of diamond
bearing material on those areas for which the surface rights have been acquired
and transferred to the lessor. The primary term of the lease is five years plus
two-year extensions and will continue so long as there is commercial production.
Royalties include 2% of gross sales subject to a minimum of $48,000 (U.S.) per
year after the first seven years. The Company has the right to use the surface
for plant and other facilities for additional royalties.
During fiscal 2001 through fiscal 2003, the Company conducted an exploration
program to assess these prospects as well as the American Mine and Kimberlite
Properties discussed below. Core samples totaling 14,374 feet were taken from
40 drilling locations on the Black Lick Property. Definition drilling commenced
on the Twin Knobs II Property in the third fiscal quarter of 2001, and core
samples totaling 1,211 feet were taken from five drilling locations. An
analysis of a total of 238kg of lamproite from three different core samples from
the American Mine Property and the Black Lick Property was performed and
produced 14 microdiamonds and one macrodiamond. In July 2001 the Company
excavated a bulk sample of approximately 10,000 tons on the Black Lick Property,
and approximately 2,000 tons of the bulk sample was processed through the
Company's diamond sampling plant. Three diamonds with a total carat weight of
0.38 were recovered, which was significantly less than the Company had
anticipated.
During fiscal 2003, the Company recovered several microdiamonds from drill core
from the Black Lick and American Mine Properties, which were processed at the
Diamond Recovery Plant. In May 2002 the Company drilled a total of 11 auger
holes, each five feet in diameter, on the American Mine, Black Lick and
Kimberlite Properties. Most of drilling was not successful as the holes were
terminated short of their target depths by hard sandstone blocks, which could
not be penetrated by the auger. In the third quarter of fiscal 2003 the Company
completed eleven wide diameter holes on the American Mine and Black Lick
Properties and bulk sampled approximately 900 tons of material. Bulk sampling
revealed no macrodiamonds. In December 2002, based upon the cumulative
exploration results obtained on the Arkansas Properties, the Company made the
decision to cease exploration efforts in Arkansas. Accordingly, the capitalized
costs related to the Black Lick and Twin Knobs II properties totaling $2,512,500
were written off in the third quarter of fiscal 2003.

2. MINERAL PROPERTIES AND DEFERRED EXPENDITURES (CONTINUED)
American Mine Property
Pursuant to an agreement dated November 4, 1992, Diamond Exploration, Inc.
("DEI"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was granted a permit to
explore a mineral property located in Pike County, Arkansas. The Company's
Diamond Recovery Plant ("the Plant") was located on this leased property. In
November 1996, the Company exercised its option to lease the property for 10
years upon the payment of $125,000 (U.S.). Yearly payments of $25,000 (U.S.)
were required for each of the four years after the first year and $40,000 (U.S.)
per year for the following five years, plus an additional $7,500 per year for
surface rentals related to the Plant. Sampling was performed on the American
Mine property in the first quarter of fiscal 1998. The Company excavated a
100-ton sample during fiscal 1998, and a total of 51 diamonds with a total carat
weight of 9.591 were recovered, including two stones greater than one carat.
During fiscal 2003 sampling was conducted on this property in conjunction with
the sampling performed on the Black Lick Property as discussed above. The lease
payment of $47,500(U.S.), due November 1, 2002, was not made by the Company.
Due to the lease expiration and the exploration results discussed above, the
capitalized costs related to the American Mine Property totaling $450,823 were
written off in the third quarter of fiscal 2003.
In March 2003 the Company sold the Plant to a third party for $350,000 (U.S.).
In conjunction with the sale, the third party paid the lessor of the American
Mine Property $47,500 (U.S.) on behalf of the Company in order to extend the
Company's lease on the property through October 31, 2003. The Company recorded
a reserve for leasehold reclamation costs of approximately $70,000, representing
the estimated costs of the Company's obligation to restore the Arkansas
properties to their original condition prior to lease expiration and to perform
reclamation activities as required by Arkansas regulatory authorities. The
Company allowed the lease to expire effective November 1, 2003.
Kimberlite Mine Property
In November 1998, the Company executed a lease on certain property in Pike
County, Arkansas with a two-year term ending November 14, 2000 by payment of
$15,000 (U.S.). The Company extended the lease to November 14, 2002 by payment
of an additional $15,000 (U.S.) in November 2000. The Company allowed this
lease to expire in November 2002, and the capitalized costs totaling $84,034
were written off in the third fiscal quarter of 2003.
Southwest Properties
In June 1994, the Company acquired from an unrelated company its rights under
fifteen mineral leases located in the southwestern region of Arkansas covering
approximately 2,000 acres. The original dates of the leases were from May 1992
to August 1992, with terms from 10 to 20 years. In fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003
the Company elected not to renew selected leases, and, accordingly, write-downs
representing all prior acquisition costs totaling $86,067 and $59,020,
respectively, were recorded. The capitalized costs related to the remaining
active leases totaling $35,349 were written off in the third quarter of fiscal
2003 based upon the Company's decision to cease exploration efforts in Arkansas
as discussed above.
3. DEBENTURES
In February 2002, the Company completed the issuance of $1,278,595 principal
amount of 10% secured convertible debentures ("the Debentures"). The Debentures
were convertible into 445,503 units at the rate of one unit for each $2.87
principal amount of Debenture until February 16, 2003. Each unit would consist
of one common share of the Company and one share purchase warrant with an
exercise price of $3.15, exercisable through August 16, 2003. The conversion
and share purchase warrant prices above were adjusted to reflect the Company's
seven for one share consolidation in November 2001.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
OCTOBER 31, 2003
3. DEBENTURES (CONTINUED)
On February 11, 2003, the holders of the Debentures approved the amendment of
the conversion price of the units to $0.30 and the extension of the maturity
date of the Debentures to February 16, 2004. As amended, each of the 4,261,976
units would consist of one common share of the Company and one share purchase
warrant with an exercise price of $0.30, exercisable through February 16, 2004.
Additionally, the terms of the Debenture were amended to include a mandatory
conversion provision of all Debentures and exercise of all related warrants
within 30 days after the closing price of the Company's common shares has
exceeded $0.375 for ten consecutive trading days.
Interest at the rate of 10% is payable on conversion or maturity in cash, or at
the election of the Company, in common shares valued at the weighted average
trading price of the common shares of the Company for the ten trading days
preceding the interest payment date. The Debentures were secured by a general
security interest in the Company's current and future assets and by the stock of
Star U.S., Inc. ("Star"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Star.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2004, several holders of the Debentures elected
to convert a total of $197,000 principal amount and received 656,666 common
shares and 656,666 common share purchase warrants with exercise prices of $0.30.
Additionally, during the second quarter of fiscal 2004, a total of approximately
$43,000 of interest accrued on the principal amounts converted was paid via the
issuance of a total of 239,781 shares, representing the conversion of the
interest amounts at weighted average prices from $0.17 to $0.21 per share.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2004, a director of the Company elected to
convert $97,000 principal amount and received 323,333 common shares.
Effective October 31, 2003 a total of $984,595 principal amount of Debentures
were automatically converted into 3,281,977 units of the Company in accordance
with the February 11, 2003 amendments discussed in the third preceding
paragraph. Each unit consisted of one common share and one common share
purchase warrant with exercise prices of $0.30. Additionally, under terms of
the mandatory conversion provision, the expiration date of all warrants issued
upon conversion of the Debentures was established as December 1, 2003. During
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company received a total of $937,593,
representing the exercise price of 3,125,311 warrants, and issued 3,125,311
common shares. A total of 813,332 common share warrants expired unused on
December 1, 2003.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, a total of $291,940 of interest
accrued on the principal amounts converted in October 2003 was paid via the
issuance of a total of 889,741 shares, representing the conversion of the
interest amounts at weighted average prices from $0.31 to $0.33 per share.
4. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING
PRINCIPLES ("GAAP")
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
Canadian GAAP, which differs in some respects from United States GAAP. The
material differences in respect to these financial statements between Canadian
and United States GAAP, and their effect on the Company's financial statements,
are summarized below.
Mineral Properties and Deferred Expenditures
Under United States GAAP, the preferred method for accounting for evaluation and
exploration costs on properties without proven and probable reserves is to
expense all costs incurred, other than acquisition costs, prior to the
establishment of proven and probable reserves. The effect of the application of
this method to the financial statements would be to increase net loss by
approximately $92,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2002, and to increase
net loss by approximately $125,000 for the three and nine months ended October
31, 2003.

currency translation loss of approximately $29,000 at October 31, 2003.
5. SHARE CAPITAL
On January 29, 2002 the Company completed a private placement of 5,691,376 units
at a price of $0.20 per unit, each unit to consist of one common share and one
share purchase warrant with an exercise price of $0.25 per unit. The share
purchase warrants had an expiration date of January 29, 2003, which was extended
during fiscal 2003 to January 29, 2004.
In March 2002 the Company issued a total of 218,750 common shares to three
creditors to settle debts totaling $52,500.
On September 18, 2002, the Company completed a private placement of 2,819,774
units at a price of $0.20 per unit, each unit consisting of one common share and
one share purchase warrant with an exercise price of $0.25 per unit. The share
purchase warrants have an expiration date of September 18, 2004. The Company
received a total of $563,955 during fiscal 2003 representing subscriptions for
the private placement. Included in that amount was a total of $85,240
representing subscriptions for 426,200 units by three of the Company's
directors.
In March 2003 the Company issued 1,000,000 common share options with a five-year
term and an exercise price of $0.10 to an officer. During the third quarter of
fiscal 2004 officers, directors and employees elected to exercise 1,596,875
options with exercise prices from $0.18 to $0.28, and the Company received total
exercise proceeds of $396,166. In August and October 2003 the Company issued
1,622,500 and 1,027,000 common share options with five-year terms and exercise
prices of $0.30 and $0.40, respectively, to directors, employees and
consultants. As of October 31, 2003, the Company had a total of 3,999,054
common share options outstanding at prices ranging from $0.10 to $0.40.
In July 2003 the Company issued a total of 107,126 common shares to three
creditors to settle debts totaling $20,917.
6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Except as described below, there are no material pending legal proceedings to
which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or to which any of their
property is subject.
On May 15, 1998, a legal action styled James Cairns and Stewart Jackson vs.
------------------------------------
Texas Star Resources Corporation d/b/a Diamond Star, Inc. was filed in the 215th
-----------------------------------------------------
Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas, Cause No. 9822760 wherein the
Plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the Company breached contractual
agreements and committed fraud by not timely releasing or causing to be released
from an escrow account required by Canadian law certain shares of the Company to
which Plaintiffs allege that they were entitled to receive in calendar 1995 and,
as a result of the Company's alleged actions with respect to the release of such
shares, the Plaintiffs sought monetary damages for losses in share value,
attorney's fees, court costs, expenses, interest and exemplary damages. In
1999, the litigation against the Company in Houston, Harris County, Texas, was
dismissed by the court with prejudice, leaving only the claims of James M.
Cairns, Jr. pending in British Columbia, which is generally described below.
The legal action in Texas is similar to one filed against the Company in the
Supreme Court of British Columbia, Canada, in August 1996 styled Cause No.
C96493; James M. Cairns, Jr. vs. Texas Star Resources Corporation. In January

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
OCTOBER 31, 2003
6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
1993, the Plaintiffs were issued common stock of the Company in escrow which
shares were to be released based on exploration expenditures by the Company on
certain of its properties in Arkansas. The escrow requirements were imposed by
the Vancouver Stock Exchange. Plaintiffs requested that all of the shares be
released in 1995. At that time the Company believed that the release of said
shares when requested by the Plaintiffs was inappropriate due to legal
requirements and regulatory concerns. The shares were subsequently released to
the Plaintiffs. The Company intends to vigorously defend the allegations of the
Plaintiffs in the pending litigation in British Columbia and in Texas (if the
case is appealed or refiled) and believes it has meritorious defenses to such
claims. No procedings in the action in British Columbia have been taken by the
Plaintiff since March 30, 2000. However, the Company cannot provide any
assurances that it will be successful, in whole or in part, with respect to its
defense of the claims of the Plaintiffs. If the Company is not successful, any
judgement obtained by Plaintiffs could have a material and adverse effect on its
financial condition.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
-----------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
-----------------------
Results of Operations - For the Three and Nine Month Periods Ended
October 31, 2003 and 2002
All dollar amounts referred to herein are in Canadian Dollars unless
otherwise stated. As of December 8, 2003, the exchange rate is $1.00 (Canadian)
= $0.7712 (U.S.)
The Company is in the exploration stage and has no revenues from operations
other than rental income related to the Diamond Recovery Plant ("the Plant")
totaling approximately $1,079,000 from inception and gains on sales of the Plant
and equipment. None of its Properties have proven to be commercially
developable to date and as a result the Company has not generated any revenue
from these activities. The Company's existing properties are gold prospects in
Brazil, as discussed in Note 2, which were acquired in August 2003 and on which
the Company will begin exploration activities in the final quarter of fiscal
2004. The Company capitalizes expenditures associated with the direct
acquisition, evaluation and exploration of mineral properties. When an area is
disproved or abandoned, the acquisition costs and related deferred expenditures
are written-off. The net capitalized cost of each mineral property is
periodically compared to management's estimation of the net realizable value and
a write-down is recorded if the net realizable value is less than the cumulative
net capitalized costs. As discussed in Note 2, during fiscal 2003 the Company
decided to cease exploration activities on its diamond prospects in Arkansas due
to disappointing exploration results, and the total of $3,141,726 of accumulated
capitalized costs related to the Arkansas leases were written off.
The Company's revenues during the nine months ended October 31, 2003 are
primarily comprised of the gain from the sale of the diamond sorting and
recovery plant ("the Plant"). The Plant was sold to a third party for
US$350,000 and was fully depreciated at disposal. As discussed in Note 2, the
Plant is located on the American Mine Property. The Company recorded a reserve
for leasehold reclamation of approximately US$50,000, which represents the
estimated costs to return the leased property to its original condition and to
complete environmental reclamation as required by the Arkansas regulatory
authorities. During the three months ended October 31 2003 and the three and
nine months ended October 31, 2002 the Company's revenues were comprised
entirely of interest income. The Company has not received any revenues from
mining operations from inception.
10
General and administrative expenses during the first three quarters
decreased by approximately $346,000, or 39%, from fiscal 2003 to fiscal 2004.
Similarly, general and administrative expenses decreased by approximately
118,000 or 40% from the quarter ended October 31, 2002 to the quarter ended
October 31, 2003. The reductions are due to the curtailment of exploration
activities in Arkansas and the resulting closing of the Plant, which was
effective in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003. During the first quarter of
2004 the Company hired a new president and commenced the evaluation of several
mineral prospects, principally gold prospects in Brazil. These efforts resulted
in the signing of an option to purchase 28,275 hectares of mineral exploration
licenses in Brazil known as the Tocantinzinho Properties. The Company
anticipates that general and administrative expenses during the final quarter of
fiscal 2004 will increase from the level experienced in the first three quarters
of fiscal 2004 as the Company incurs consulting and exploration expenditures
related to the above prospect.
FINANCIAL CONDITION; LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
As of October 31, 2003 and January 31, 2003, the Company had working
capital deficits of $108,020 and $62,984, respectively. At October 31, 2003,
the Company had current assets of $61,524, including $43,808 in cash, compared
to total current liabilities of $169,544.
On February 11, 2003, the holders of the Debentures approved the amendment
of the conversion price of the units to $0.30 and the extension of the maturity
date of the Debentures to February 16, 2004. As amended, each of the 4,261,976
units would consist of one common share of the Company and one share purchase
warrant with an exercise price of $0.30, exercisable through February 16, 2004.
Upon conversion, $97,000 principal amount of 10% Debentures held by a director
would be convertible only into common shares of the Company on the basis on one
share for each $0.30 principal amount. Additionally, the terms of the Debenture
were amended to include a mandatory conversion provision of all Debentures and
exercise of all related warrants within 30 days after the closing price of the
Company's common shares has exceeded $0.375 for ten consecutive trading days.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2004, several holders of the Debentures
elected to convert a total of $197,000 principal amount and received 656,666
common shares and 656,666 common share purchase warrants with exercise prices of
$0.30. Additionally, during the second quarter of fiscal 2004, a total of
approximately $43,000 of interest accrued on the principal amounts converted was
paid via the issuance of a total of 239,781 shares, representing the conversion
of the interest amounts at weighted average prices from $0.17 to $0.21 per
share. During the third quarter of fiscal 2004, a director of the Company
elected to convert $97,000 principal amount and received 323,333 common shares.
Effective October 31, 2003 a total of $984,595 principal amount of
Debentures were automatically converted into 3,281,977 units of the Company in
accordance with the February 11, 2003 amendments discussed in the second
preceding paragraph. Each unit consisted of one common share and one common
share purchase warrant with exercise prices of $0.30. Additionally, under the
terms of the mandatory conversion provision, the expiration date of all warrants
issued upon conversion of the Debentures was established as December 1, 2003.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company received a total of
$937,593, representing the exercise price of 3,125,311 warrants, and issued
3,125,311 common shares. A total of 813,332 common share warrants expired
unused on December 1, 2003.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, a total of $291,940 of interest
accrued on the principal amounts converted was paid via the issuance of a total
of 889,741 shares, representing the conversion of the interest amounts at
weighted average prices from $0.31 to $0.33 per share.
The debenture financing was a private placement and was made pursuant to
the private placement laws of Canada and pursuant to the exemptions provided by
Section 4(2), Rule 506 of Regulation D, and Regulation S under the United States
Securities Act of 1933.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2004 officers, directors and employees
elected to exercise 1,596,875 options with exercise prices from $0.18 to $0.28,
and the Company received total exercise proceeds of $396,166.
11
The Company has no properties that have proven to be commercially
developable and has no revenues from mining operations other than the rentals
received from the Plant and the proceeds from the sales of the Plant and related
equipment. The rights and interests in the Tocantinzinho Properties in Brazil
constitute the Company's current mineral holdings. At this point in time, the
Company estimates that an initial exploration program on the Tocantinzinho
Property will require the expenditure of at least US$300,000, which will be
funded by the option and warrant exercises in the third and fourth quarters
discussed above. The Company cannot estimate with any degree of certainty
either the time or the amount of funds that will be required to acquire and
conduct additional exploration activities on new prospects, particularly the
Toncantinzinho Property. The Company intends to seek additional equity
financing during fiscal 2004, including the potential exercise of outstanding
warrants. The inability of the Company to raise further equity financing will
adversely affect the Company's business plan, including its ability to acquire
additional properties and perform exploration activities on such acquired
properties. If additional equity is not available, the Company may seek
additional debt financing or seek exploration partners to assist in funding
acquisition or exploration efforts. Historically, the Company has been able to
successfully raise capital as required for its business needs; however, no
assurances are made by the Company that it can continue to raise debt or equity
capital for a number of reasons including its history of losses and property
writedowns, the decline in the price of its common stock, the number of shares
outstanding and the Company's limited and speculative asset base of exploration
properties and prospects.
