SNOWDON RESOURCES CORPORATION
(An Exploration Stage Company)
 
NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
January 31, 2010
 (Unaudited)
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)
 
 
1.         NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
Organization
 
Snowdon Resources Corporation (“the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada, U.S.A., on March 1, 2006.
 
Exploration Stage Activities
 
The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations.  It is engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining claims.  Upon location of a commercial minable reserve, the Company expects to actively prepare the site for extraction and to enter a development state.
 

          Basis of presentation and going concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of $491,334 for the period from March 1, 2006 (inception) to January 31, 2010 and has no revenue.  The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of its properties. The Company plans to continue as a going concern by  raising additional capital, primarily through the issuance of common shares and / or debt securities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in developing its properties or in securing financing. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
The unaudited financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations for the periods presented. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2009. The Company assumes that users of the interim financial information herein have read or have access to the audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. Accordingly, certain footnote disclosure, which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the April 30, 2009 financial statements has been omitted. The results of operations for the nine month period ended January 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending April 30, 2010.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
 
2.           SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles 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 judgment.  Actual results may vary from these estimates.

SNOWDON RESOURCES CORPORATION

NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
January 31, 2010
 (Unaudited)
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)
2.           SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
 
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued its final Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, “The “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (“SFAS 168”).  SFAS 168 establishes the “FASB” Accounting Standards Codification” (“Codification”), which officially launched July 1, 2009, to become the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities, superseding existing FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”), and related accounting literature.  Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants.  SFAS 168 recognizes the previously issued GAAP pronouncements into accounting topics and displays them using a consistent structure.  The subsequent issuances of new standards will be in the form of Accounting Standards Updates that will be included in the Codification.  SFAS 168 is effective for the Company as of the quarter ended October 31, 2009.  As the Codification was not intended to change or alter existing GAAP, it did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements.  The only impact was that references to authoritative accounting literature are in accordance with the Codification.  The Company has included in its disclosures the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) cross-reference along side the references to the accounting standards issued and adopted prior to the adoption of Codification.
 
The financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below:
 
 
a)  Exploration Stage Enterprise
 
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting and according to the guidance originally issued in FASB Statement No. 7, Accounting and Reporting for Development Stage Enterprises (codified in ASC 915, Development Stage Entities) as it devotes substantially all of its efforts to acquiring and exploring mineral properties.  Until such properties are acquired and developed, the Company will continue to prepare its financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with entities in the exploration stage.
b)  
Cash
Cash consists of cash on deposit with a high quality, major financial institution, and to date the Company has not experienced losses on any of its balances. The carrying amounts approximated fair market value due to the liquidity of these deposits.  At January 31, 2010 approximately $8,000 of cash held on deposit was in excess of the bank’s government-mandated insurance limits.

2.           SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
 
     c)  Mineral Property Costs
 
The Company has been in the exploration stage since its inception and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations.  It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred using the guidance in EITF 04-02, Whether Mineral Rights Are Tangible or Intangible Assets. The Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment according to the guidance originally issued in FASB Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets (codified in ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment and ASC 205 Presentation of Financial Statements) at each fiscal quarter end.  When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.
 
 
d)   Long-lived Assets
 
In accordance with guidance originally issued in FASB Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (codified in ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment and ASC 205 Presentation of Financial Statements), the Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.
Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

 (Unaudited)
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)
2.           SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
 
e)   Asset Retirement Obligations
 
The Company follows the guidance originally issued in FASB Statement No. 143, Accounting For Asset Retirement Obligations (codified in ASC 410 Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations), which establishes standards for the initial measurement and subsequent accounting for obligations associated with the sale, abandonment or other disposal of long-lived tangible assets arising from the acquisition, construction or development and for normal operations of such assets.
 
f)   Use of Estimates and Assumptions
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
g)   Financial Instruments
 
The carrying values of cash, amounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The Company’s financial risk is the risk that arises from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. The Company’s head office operations are in Canada and 51% of its assets at January 31, 2010 are denominated in Canadian dollars. While the Company does have an exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates, the dollar value of the assets in question (approximately $36,000) is not large at that date. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.
 
h)   Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
 
The Company reports net income (loss) per share in accordance with the guidance originally issued in FASB Statement No. 128 Earnings Per Share (codified in ASC 260 Earnings Per Share), which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.  The Company has no options or warrants or other dilutive securities and therefore no dilutive potential shares. As the Company generated net losses in the periods presented, any exercise of options or warrants, if there were any, would be anti-dilutive. For those reasons, basic and diluted loss per share are the same.

4.           MINERAL CLAIM INTEREST
 
During the year ended April 30, 2006, the Company acquired a 100% interest in five mineral claims located in Gila County, Arizona, USA.  The consideration for the acquisition was a cash payment of $10,000, which represented reimbursement of the cost paid by the vendor for the mineral claims.
The claims were re-staked in February, 2008 and a further seven contiguous claims were added.  In order to keep the claims in good standing, a claim maintenance fee in the amount of $140 per claim must be paid to the Bureau of Land Management each year on or before September 1st.
On July 20, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement whereby it would acquire the rights, title and interest in five Arizona State leases and two claims. Under the terms of the agreement, the consideration to be provided by the Company includes cancellation of debt owed to it totaling $20,260 and a 1% net smelter return royalty to a maximum of $400,000.  Rights to the leases and claims were to be transferred by the State of Arizona to the Company.  Effective February 11, 2010, the Company entered into a further agreement whereby the leases will not be transferred to the Company. However, in recognition of its expenditures on the leases, the Company will receive an amount equal to 25% of the royalty paid to the State of Arizona for any mineral production from lands included in those leases. In turn, from the royalty that it receives, the Company will pay out a 1% net smelter return royalty, to a maximum of $400,000, to one company and 20% of the remainder to another company.
 
During the nine month period ended January 31, 2010, the Company expended $2,012 (2009 - $77,595) on exploration and maintenance of its claims and $22,301 in development costs related to the five Arizona State leases. The costs related to the five leases were initially recorded as receivables but have now been expensed and charged to property exploration costs.

ITEM 2.                      MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS
 
This section of this report includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.
 
We are an exploration stage mining company and currently intend to prospect for uranium on our one property which now contains twelve claims. We acquired five claims on April 1, 2006. The claims were re-staked in March, 2008 and increased to a total of twelve. Each claim measures 600 feet by 1,500 feet and covers 20 acres. Total land position is 240 acres. All claims are located in Gila County, Arizona.
 
In July, 2009, we entered into an agreement to acquire the following five Arizona State leases and two additional claims. Formal title to those leases and claims has not yet been transferred to us, as quit claim documentation has not yet been completed and filed with the State of Arizona. We entered into a further agreement effective February 11, 2010 whereby the leases will not be transferred to us. However, in recognition of our expenditures on the leases, we will receive an amount equal to 25% of the royalty paid to the State of Arizona for any mineral production from lands included in those leases. In turn, from any royalty that we receive, we will pay out a 1% net smelter return royalty, to a maximum of $400,000, to one company and 20% of the remainder to another company.

As with our current claims, the annual maintenance fee on these two additional claims will be $140 each, due on or before September 1.
 
We have no ore bodies and have not yet generated any revenues from our business operations. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than the sale of minerals found on the property. We raised $550,000 from a public offering in March, 2008. Ultimately, our success or failure will be determined by what we find under the ground. If we find mineralized material and it is economically feasible to remove the mineralized material, we will attempt to raise additional money through a subsequent private placement, public offering or through loans.
 
We are not going to buy or sell any plant or significant equipment during the next twelve months. We will not buy any equipment until have located a body of ore and have determined it is economical to extract the ore.
 
We do not intend to hire any employees at this time. All of the work on the property will be conducted by unaffiliated, independent contractors. Administrative work will be handled by the director, a part-time bookkeeper, a part-time regulatory filer, and a financial consultant.
 
We have no warrants or other dilutive securities.  On December 2, 2008, we filed a registration statement with the SEC on Form S-8 to register 10,000,000 common shares underlying options available to be issued through a new nonqualified stock option plan.  No options have been issued as of March 16, 2010.

Status of Our Proposed Exploration Program - Gila County Claims
 
Phase 1 of our exploration program, consisting of a Radon survey of the claims area was completed in June, 2008. Four recommended drill sites were identified, to form the first phase of a proposed drilling program.
 
A subsequent report prepared for us by a consultant, Dr. Karen Wenrich, recommended that any drilling should not be centered on the above sites, which were Radon anomalies, surmising that the source of the Radon is displaced from the anomaly.  In an appendix to that report another consultant, Dr. Michael G. Reimer, supports Wenrich’s recommendation.  Reimer discusses both shallow and deeper drilling and recommends that the results of any first drilling should guide subsequent drilling, as opposed to committing a drilling program to the four sites noted above. He also recommends testing groundwater for radon, to help determine sites for additional drilling. He concludes by stating “Using geologic and hydrologic information, it may be possible to estimate the distance of displacement of the central anomaly. In any case, further studies should be flexible in modifying the location of sampling as new data become available.”
 
The consulting geologists’ recommendations suggest that further fieldwork and sampling is necessary prior to deciding on the type and the location of an initial drilling phase. However, current economic conditions and the opportunity to acquire the rights to the additional properties in two nearby Arizona counties as described above led us to re-evaluate and postpone further work on the CR claims, as described below.
 
We intend to hold off on any further exploration program expenditures on our claims until we have replenished our cash reserves by way of equity offerings or some form of debt. Those claims, including the additional two which we still have the option to acquire based on our July 29, 2009 agreement only require an annual payment to the BLM totaling $1,960.
 
When sufficient funds are available for further exploration work on the CR claims, we will need to take into account the consultant report recommendations with respect to the initial drilling locations and the need for additional data, possibly including groundwater testing. An entirely different type of drilling program (e.g. more widespread, shallow drilling) than that originally proposed could result. This would essentially change the original plan for Phase 2 drilling in its entirety.
 
Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital
 
There is limited historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are an exploration stage corporation and have not generated any revenues from operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in the exploration of our properties, and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services.
 
From inception on March 1, 2006 to the point that funds were available in March, 2008 as a result of our initial public offering, we were funded by loans from Woodburn Holdings Ltd. a corporation controlled by Robert Baker, a director and officer, and from West Peak Ventures of Canada Limited, a corporation controlled by Timothy Brock, a major shareholder.  These loans were used for the original mineral claim fee, to re-stake the property, to incorporate us, for legal and accounting expenses, and office and sundry costs.  The loans were fully repaid during the period ended October 31, 2008.
 
We have no assurance that either the immediately required or future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.

Notable changes in results of operations between the interim periods presented are as follows:

 
-  
Consulting fees increased approximately $88,000 in the nine month comparative period and $37,000 in the three month comparative period due to the following:
 
·  
A longer period in which contracts with a director and a major shareholder were in effect, plus a rate increase in the consulting fee to the director starting in October 2009: $42,000
·  
Consulting fees paid for due diligence work on a potential new project, starting in June, 2009: approximately $30,000
·  
Two months of consulting expense for public relations, starting in December, 2009: $8,000
·  
Fair value of shares to be issued in connection with a contract for public relations (pro-rata value for two out of twelve months) with no equivalent in the previous periods: approximately $6,000
·  
Other miscellaneous consulting with no equivalent in the comparative periods: approximately $3,000
 
 
-  
Property exploration costs decreased in the nine month comparative period as a result of the cessation of activity due to our shortage of funds. The increase in the three month comparative period is due to the write-off of approximately $22,000 in expenditures on the five Arizona State leases once the January 29, 2010 agreement was concluded whereby we will no longer acquire the rights to those leases.
 
Cash Requirements and Liquidity
 
As of the date of this report, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business operations. We have incurred a deficit of $491,334 from inception to January 31, 2010 and have no revenue. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain ongoing financing and eventually, upon future profitable operations from the development of our mineral properties. Our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet our needs is entirely dependent on the issuance of shares, debt securities, or loans.  We are pursuing funding initiatives through a variety of sources.
 
As of January 31, 2010, our cash was in excess of current liabilities by approximately $7,000. Our total assets were $69,972, of which approximately 18% was cash, 9% was recoverable taxes, and 73% was prepaid expenses. Our total liabilities were $5,581 in accounts payable, which primarily were for consulting fees for January, 2010.
 
Professional fees (legal, accounting, audit, and regulatory reporting), Consulting, and Office and sundry are expected to make up our other main expense categories going forward and we forecast those to annually be in the range of $50,000, $200,000 and $35,000 respectively. We need to immediately raise additional cash either through debt or equity to cover our current and ongoing expenditures or we will be unable to continue our operations.

 
-14-
 
 
 
 
 

Notable Balance Sheet changes from April 30, 2009 to January 31, 2010 are as follows:
 
Cash decreased approximately $235,000 primarily due to the following:
Operating expenses - Consulting fees: $107,000; rent, licenses and administrative costs: $31,000; filing fees: $8,000; legal and accounting costs: $33,000; and property exploration costs: $24,000, which included approximately $22,000 in costs incurred in connection with the five Arizona State leases to which we did not acquire the rights.
 
In addition, cash was impacted by an amounts receivable decrease of approximately $11,000 that was partially offset by a payables increase of approximately $6,000, and a prepaid expenses increase of about $46,000.
-  
The decrease in amounts receivable was due primarily to the write off of costs incurred in connection with the five Arizona State leases, offset by an increase in receivable goods and services tax.
-  
Payables were Nil at April 30, 2009, and the approximately $6,000 balance at January 31, 2010 was comprised of consulting fees due for the month of January.
-  
The increase in prepaid expenses was due to six months of consulting fees prepaid to a major shareholder ($18,000) and prepaid engineering costs in connection with a potential new project ($28,000).
 
Shares To Be Issued in the amount of $33,750 are due to the grant of 250,000 shares at December 1, 2009 in connection with the contract for public relations services. $5,625 of this amount was expensed and charged to Consulting fees during the period, leaving the Deferred Compensation balance of $28,125.
 
ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
 
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.
 
 
 
ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 
A. Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, these officers concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, these disclosure controls and procedures were adequate to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
 
B. Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, management has conducted an assessment, including testing, using the criteria in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
 
Based on our evaluation under the framework in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of January 31, 2010.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
C. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended January 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 2.                      UNREGISTERED SALE OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On June 14, 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared our Form SB-2 Registration Statement effective (File number 333-134943) permitting us to offer up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.10 per share.
 
On March 10, 2008, we completed our public offering and sold 5,500,000 shares of common stock at an offering price of $0.10 per share for a total of $550,000. No underwriter was involved in our public offering.  Since that time, to January 31, 2010, we have spent the proceeds as follows:

1) & 2) - The Radon survey and related expenses totaled $90,388. That Radon survey replaced the Geochemical and Geophysical surveys and their related expenses that were projected to total $100,430 while achieving equivalent results. The selection of the Radon survey methodology therefore resulted in a net saving to date of $10,042 which is available for further property survey work.
 
3) - No expenditures have yet been incurred for Drilling. The drilling sites recommended in the Radon survey were re-evaluated in subsequent reports from our consulting geologists, wherein they recommend that a drill program would need to be redesigned, based on additional fieldwork and data analysis. As noted above however, the exploration program for the CR claims is now indefinitely postponed, and the redesigned drilling work was put on hold before any drilling commenced. Therefore no amounts have been assessed against the drilling allocation of $151,200.
 
4) - Development work on the property was always planned to occur after the survey and drilling programs were completed. As we are not yet at that point, and have placed our overall work program on hold due to limited availability of cash, it will be some time before development costs are incurred on our properties.  Costs incurred to in connection with the five Arizona State leases were expensed in the current period when it was determined that we would not acquire rights to those properties. Those amounts totaling $22,301 have been allocated to Development for purposes of this analysis, leaving an unused Development cost amount of $136,069.

 
-15-
 
 
 
 
 

5) - We are minimizing the use of working capital as much as possible, given the uncertainties around obtaining additional financing, due to currently adverse economic and financial market conditions. To January 31, 2010 we had limited our expenditures of working capital to $147,212, which is $37,212 in excess of the original $100,000 allocation from the placement proceeds.
 
6) & 7) - We deviated from the Use of Proceeds section in our registration statement in that we spent the following amounts on items not contemplated in that original Use of Proceeds allocation:
 
Consulting - $154,366
Consulting fees paid for business development, strategic planning, and financing and management advice from a director ($60,000) and from a major shareholder of the Company ($48,000), $31,241 on due diligence work, $8,000 on public relations, and $1,500 on preparation of the second agreement concerning the five Arizona State leases.
 
Repayment of related parties advances - $66,258
As noted above, from the Company’s inception on March 1, 2006 to the point that funds were available in March, 2008 as a result of our initial public offering, we were funded by loans from related parties.  Those loans were used for the original mineral claim fee, to re-stake the property, to incorporate us, for legal and accounting expenses, and office and sundry costs. Those amounts were repaid during the year ended April 30, 2009.
 
8) - We overestimated the requirement for Offering Expenses in the Use of Proceeds section of our registration statement. Actual cost was only $2,963 compared to our estimate of $30,000. As a result, we have under spent by $27,037. Offering expenses consist of legal services, accounting fees, transfer agent fees, printing expenses and filing fees in connection with the offering.
