Item 8.01
Other Events
 
The Company has ceased its test mining production  (or "bulk sampling activities") in Peru. The Company's test mining production  was being conduct through physical labor.  The Company has determined from its initial test mining production samples that an investment in heavy equipment, such as a excavator and  wash plant, is warranted based on our internal sampling results.  Our sampling indicates that "Gorilla" has the potential for high levels of gold on the property.  The Company believes further testing is warranted once it acquires the necessary heavy equipment.
