Stock-based compensation

During the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, $147,911 (2010 - $146,682) was recognized as stock based compensation for the 2,000,000 management warrants (Note 4(d)). These warrants were fair valued using a trinomial barrier pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:  exercise price of $1.50, risk-free interest rate of 1.89%, expected life of 3.4 years, an expected volatility factor of 75.90%, a dividend yield of 0.00% and a probability of 11%.  The Company estimated the exercisability of these warrants using a Monte Carlo probability calculator.  The weighted average probability of exercisability of these warrants is 11%.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company issued 2,490,000 (2010 – 728,000) shares of common stock (Note 4(a)) at a fair value of $3,021,000 (2010 - $842,400), valued at market value at the time of issuance, to management, employees and consultants, under the Management Compensation Plan.

Warrants (continued)

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 07-05, Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock, which was primarily codified into ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging.  ASC 815 applies to any freestanding financial instrument or embedded feature that has the characteristics of a derivative and to any freestanding financial instruments that is potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock.

As a result of adopting ASC 815, warrants to purchase 6,875,000 shares of common stock previously treated as equity pursuant to the derivative treatment exemption were no longer afforded equity treatment.  The warrants had an exercise price of $0.50 per warrant and expire in July and September 2009, of which 4,250,000 warrants were extended to April 2011.  Effective January 1, 2009, the Company reclassified the fair value of these 4,250,000 warrants to purchase common stock, which had exercise price reset features, from equity to liability status as if these warrants were treated as a derivative liability since their date of issue.  On January 1, 2009, the Company reclassified $1,084,375 to beginning deficit and $1,084,375 to other liabilities - warrants to recognize the fair value of such warrants on such date.

As of September 30, 2010, the 4,250,000 warrants were fair valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 1.63%, expected life of 1 year, an expected volatility factor of 53.19% and a dividend yield of 0.00%. The fair value of these warrants to purchase common stock decreased to $923,100 as of September 30, 2010 from $2,956,725 on December 31, 2009. Accordingly, the Company recognized a $2,033,625 non-cash income from the change in fair value of these warrants for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010.

During the nine-months period ended September 30, 2011, the 4,250,000 warrants had been exercised (Note 4(a)). Accordingly, the Company recognized a $543,150 non-cash loss from the change in fair value of these warrants, and $2,550,000 was added to paid-in capital on the common stock issued upon conversion.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities.  The carrying amounts of these instruments approximate their respective fair values due to the short maturities of those instruments.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

(i)  
Level 1 -quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
(ii)  
Level 2 -inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and
(iii)  
Level 3 -inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The following table summarizes fair value measurement by level at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as filed with this report.

Forward Looking Statements

The statements contained in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that represent management’s beliefs and assumptions based on currently available information.  Forward-looking statements include the information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, business strategies, need for financing, competitive position, potential growth opportunities, potential operating performance improvements, ability to retain and recruit personnel, the effects of competition and the effects of future legislation or regulations.  Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words “believes,” “intends,” “may,” “should,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “could,” “plans,” or comparable terminology or by discussions of strategy or trends.  Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot give any assurances that these expectations will prove to be correct.  Such statements by their nature involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results, and actual future results could differ materially from those described in such forward-looking statements.

Among the factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially are the risks and uncertainties discussed in this report.  While it is not possible to identify all factors, we continue to face many risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, the cyclicality of the titanium dioxide industry, global economic and political conditions, global productive capacity, customer inventory levels, changes in product pricing, changes in product costing, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, competitive technology positions and operating interruptions (including, but not limited to, labor disputes, leaks, fires, explosions, unscheduled downtime, transportation interruptions, war and terrorist activities).  Mining operations are subject to a variety of existing laws and regulations relating to exploration and development, permitting procedures, safety precautions, property reclamation, employee health and safety, air and water quality standards, pollution and other environmental protection controls, all of which are subject to change and are becoming more stringent and costly to comply with.  Should one or more of these risks materialize (or the consequences of such a development worsen), or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from those expected.  We disclaim any intention or obligation to update publicly or revise such statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

There may also be other risks and uncertainties that we are unable to predict at this time or that we do not now expect to have a material adverse impact on our business.

Background

We are a mineral exploration company.  We hold mining concessions comprised of 33 registered mining exploitation concessions, and five exploration concessions, over approximately 8,225 hectares located approximately 39 kilometers west of the City of Vallenar in the Atacama, or Region III, geographic region of northern Chile (hereinafter referred to as “Cerro Blanco”).  We are in the exploration stage, which means we are engaged in the search for mineral deposits or reserves which could be economically and legally extracted or recovered.  Our primary expenditures at this stage consist of acquisition and exploration costs and general and administration expenses.  We have produced no revenues, have achieved losses since inception, have no operations, and currently rely upon the sale of our securities to fund our operations.

Plan of Operation and Financial Condition

We completed the acquisition of an undivided interest in Cerro Blanco in September 2005.  Exploration drilling by us and the previous owner has defined rutile mineralization.  Metallurgical test work performed by Lakefield Research has demonstrated that this mineralization can be concentrated to a level meeting buyer specifications and can be produced using a conventional milling and flotation process.

As reported in a news release of April 6, 2011, assay data from a completed in-fill drill program at the Las Carolinas prospect consisting of 54 diamond drill holes totaling 7,047 meters has been received.  Geological staff and outside technical consultants are updating a new resource model and undertaking Whittle pit design work for mine planning purposes.  In addition, the Company’s environmental consultant was contracted to complete the final phase of winter baseline field monitoring at the Las Carolinas prospect.  Data from this and past monitoring studies will form the basis of an environmental impact study for the Cerro Blanco project.

Management is now beginning to evaluate technical proposals from qualified engineering firms for final engineering and process design work.  Depending on results from test work currently underway, the final process design may include a sodium feldspar recovery circuit.  Management visited SGS in Lakefield, Ontario where test work to produce a commercial grade sodium feldspar concentrate for glass and ceramics application is nearing completion.  The sodium feldspar concentrate would be produced as a by-product from rutile flotation tailings.  If this test work and follow-on marketing are successful, the sale of sodium feldspar could have a significant positive impact on overall project economics.

During third quarter, 2011 we received the final report from SGS Lakefield (“SGS”) dealing with processing Cerro Blanco rutile tailings.  Utilizing rutile tailings from the previously reported pilot plant test work, SGS examined a number of metallurgical parameters including differential flotation of sodium and potassium feldspars through the use of a variety of flotation collectors and activation modifiers.  More than twenty separate flotation tests were carried out to optimize the process flow sheet. Locked cycle tests were then performed and repeated to confirm reproducibility.  Test results established that under optimum conditions a sodium feldspar concentrate assaying 9.96% Na2O and 0.19% Fe2O3 could be produced.  Silica and alumina levels were 66.30% SiO2 and 21.00% Al2O3 respectively.  Importantly, in all tests iron content in concentrate assayed less than 0.3% Fe2O3.  The report recommends further test work which would eventually involve a full scale pilot plant similar to that used to test the Cerro Blanco rutile concentrate process flow sheet.  Depending on results from any pilot plant test work and follow-on marketing, the final process design for Cerro Blanco may eventually include a sodium feldspar recovery circuit which could have a significant positive impact on overall project economics.  At this point, we are advancing the project to final feasibility solely on the basis of rutile so as not to delay the onset of mine production.

On July 6, 2011, the Company appointed Dr. Antonio Luraschi as Project Manager, effective August 1, 2011.  Reporting to the President of White Mountain, Dr. Luraschi is responsible for over-seeing all disciplines necessary to take the project to the final feasibility stage.  Dr. Luraschi obtained degrees in Metallurgical and Chemical Engineering from the University of Concepcion, Chile in 1970, and a Ph.D. in Metallurgy from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1976.  A fluent speaker of Spanish and English, Dr. Luraschi also has a working knowledge of French and Italian.

Most recently, Dr. Luraschi was employed by AMEC International Ltd. in Chile as Metallurgical Consulting Manager.  Previously he was a partner with CADE-IDEPE (a Chilean engineering firm acquired by AMEC in 2007) where he was responsible for the metallurgical process aspects of numerous mining projects, including projects for such companies as Anglo American, Codelco and Xstrata.  Over his career, Dr. Luraschi has developed more than sixty applied research and development project engineering solutions.  These solutions fall within the fields of copper pyrometallurgy and electrometallurgy as well as extractive metallurgy of gold and silver and specialty metals such as molybdenum, titanium, vanadium and germanium.  During third quarter 2011, the Company added four professional engineers to its project team.  Reporting to Dr. Luraschi, the additional personnel’s responsibilities cover a broad range of activities including permitting and environmental, mine planning and design, process engineering (including electrical and mechanical disciplines), infrastructure and costing.  Together with management and consultants, the project team will be responsible for taking the Cerro Blanco project to final feasibility.

We now have a numerically small but experienced team as well as a considerable body of engineering design and process engineering work completed, both by us and previous owners, for the development of a large open pit mine and milling operation.  The extent to which this engineering work could be incorporated into a feasibility study will depend on factors such as optimal plant sizing and configuration based on product volumes and specifications set out in off-take contracts and process design, the latter to be determined by refinements coming out of the metallurgical test work and pilot scale testing completed last year.  With the announcement of our first definitive off-take agreement, particulars of which are set out below, we now intend to undertake a second, in-fill and set-out drilling program on Las Carolinas as well as an initial drilling program on La Cantera to provide data for mine planning and design; advance discussions with respect to access and surface rights as well as the supply of power and water; expedite an environmental impact study and permitting program and commission an independent engineering firm to assist with the preparation of a final feasibility study.  As some of these activities would be undertaken in tandem, we believe a feasibility study could be completed by the end of March, 2012, subject to the availability of funds, personnel and equipment.  We estimate the cost to take the project to the point of completing a final engineering feasibility study at approximately $4,500,000, including general and administrative and marketing expenses.  As of November 1, 2011, our cash position was approximately $2,700,000.  We believe we will require additional financing to complete the full feasibility study

Since October, 2010 the Company has announced that it has signed four Letters of Intent for off-take agreements with pigment producers for the supply of standard grade rutile concentrate.  The Letters of Intent, which at this stage are non-binding on the parties and subject to the successful completion of a bankable feasibility study, are covered by non-disclosure agreements.  During third quarter, 2011 the Company entered into its first off-take agreement with a major international pigment producer for the supply of natural rutile concentrate from the Cerro Blanco project.  Under the agreement, the pigment producer will purchase 25,000 tonnes per annum of the Company’s standard grade, natural rutile concentrate at US$1,200 per tonne FOB port. Deliveries must commence no later than September, 2014 and would run to December, 2016. The term of the agreement may then be extended by mutual agreement.

Both the titanium pigment and feedstock markets remain very robust.  DuPont, already the world’s largest producer of titanium dioxide pigments, has announced double-digit price increases and an expansion plan that will add approximately 771 million pounds of global capacity.  Expansion amongst pigment producers comes at a time when the supply of the various forms of titanium feedstock used to make pigment is in deficit.  Industry observers expect that the supply of titanium feedstock to remain in deficit for several years and that prices will continue to increase.  By way of example, several websites have reported that spot prices for ilmenite and titanium slag in China have more than doubled in 2011.  One website,”asiametal.com”, has reported May 2011 spot prices for 92% TiO2 titanium slag feedstock of US$ 1385 – 1400 per tonne equivalent, nearly twice the US$ 747 they were quoting in January 2011.

The Company has been advised by its titanium marketing consultant that as titanium slag would normally be considered an inferior feedstock compared to rutile, recent spot price increases for slag suggest that medium-term contract prices for rutile - which would comprise all of White Mountain’s proposed production - could approach or possibly exceed US$1,000 per tonne.  Given these price developments for rutile and the fact that the Cerro Blanco project is being advanced towards final engineering feasibility, the Company is increasingly being approached by parties interested in supplying services to and financing development of the project, securing rutile concentrate under long-term contract and collaborating on the Chinuka titanium metal technology.  Management is in various stages of negotiations with these parties.

On October 1, 2010 we issued 4,000,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the terms of the non-exclusive, sublicensing agreement of the titanium metal technology developed by Chinuka Limited plc (“Chinuka” or the “Chinuka Process”).  We now have access to the Chinuka Process for the Cerro Blanco project.  La Serena Technologies Ltd. (“La Serena”) executed the sublicensing agreement as holder of the Chinuka Process master license.  As consideration for the sublicense, the terms of the agreement between the Company and La Serena are:

·  
4,000,000 restricted shares of common stock were issued to Chinuka and La Serena (800,000 to Chinuka and 3,200,000 to La Serena).  These shares are to be released from escrow over 24 months with 500,000 shares released to each Chinuka and La Serena on closing and the balance released from escrow at the end of each subsequent fiscal quarter on the basis of 37,500 to Chinuka and 337,500 to La Serena.  As at September 30, 2011, 2,500,000 shares had been released from escrow and 1,500,000 shares remained in escrow.  The Company may cancel the sublicense agreement (and related escrow share releases) at any time following the initial release of shares;

·  
The expenditure of $5,000,000 by the Company within five years of closing to advance development of the Chinuka Process towards commercialization. As at September 30, 2011 the Company had expended approximately $250,000 for lab scale research related to the Chinuka Process;

·  
A 2% gross royalty payment to La Serena on any revenue generated by the Cerro Blanco project, which is attributable to the Chinuka Process, and to make advance minimum royalty payments to La Serena of $200,000 per year commencing 5 years after closing; and

·  
Commercial production of titanium metal using the Chinuka Process and feed stock derived from the Cerro Blanco project within nine years after closing.
 
The Chinuka Process was developed under the direction of Dr. Derek Fray, Professor and Director of Research, Materials Science and Metallurgy, University of Cambridge, UK.  Unlike the industry-standard, multi-step Kroll batch process which uses titanium pigment as a feed stock to produce titanium sponge metal, the Chinuka Process is essentially a one-step process and uses titanium ores and concentrates as a feed stock.  By replacing a multi-step process with a process in which refining and electro-deposition take place simultaneously and substituting ores and concentrates as a feed stock, the Chinuka Process holds forth potentially significant cost and production time saving over the Kroll process.

We anticipate the sublicensing of the Chinuka Process will create an opportunity to add value to the Cerro Blanco project, particularly with respect to the planned minus 53 micron titanium concentrate product.
 
In the first quarterly progress report since licensing a new titanium metal technology in September, 2010, we were advised that lab scale test work continued at the University of Cambridge in the UK under the direction of Professor Derek Fray into the refining and electrolytic deposition of pure titanium from lower grade concentrate.  Small quantities of sponge were successfully produced using Ultra-fine concentrate feedstock sourced from the Company’s
Cerro Blanco project in Chile.

At the end of December, 2010 the quarterly progress report advised that research continued to examine the refining and electrolytic deposition of pure titanium metal from Ultra-fine rutile concentrate feedstock sourced from the Company's Cerro Blanco project in Chile, the improvement of overall process recovery and the optimization of cell voltage and current density.  Preliminary results from this test work indicate that the residual oxygen content in titanium sponge metal deposited from molten salts using the Chinuka Process is approximately 1 wt%.  This reported weight per cent figure represents an average for several test runs completed during the second quarter.  Based on these results, an examination of the potential use of final acid leaching to lower oxygen content further to approximately 0.5 wt% (a commercial weight per cent specification for sheet rolled titanium metal) was initiated and continued into the current quarter.

In addition to examining acid leaching of titanium sponge metal, research undertaken during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 started to focus on the adaptability of the Chinuka Process.  Subsequent test work undertaken during the quarter ended March 31, 2011 succeeded in demonstrating the possibly of producing titanium metal powder (a higher value product than titanium sponge metal) directly from concentrate.  Current test work is examining the possible utilization of lower grade rutile and ilmenite concentrates as the process feedstock.  Ilmenite is the most common form of titanium concentrate, however many ilmenites have impurities which preclude their use in paint and pigment applications.

We are very encouraged by the results to date of the new metal technology.  Should we continue to have success with this technology at a lab scale, we may consider building a pilot plant to scale up the test work.

Results of Operations

The Company recorded a loss of $2,665,026 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 (nine months period ended or Year to date (“YTD”): $7,424,107) ($0.05 and $0.13 respectively per weighted average common share outstanding) compared to income of $270,423 (YTD: (loss of $ 210,130)) ($0.01 per share) for the comparable interim periods in 2010.

The loss in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 are both materially affected by the adoption of Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 07-05, Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock, which was primarily codified into ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging.  ASC 815 applies to any freestanding financial instruments or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock.

ASC Topic 815 was effective January 1, 2009 resulted in a cumulative adjustment of $1,084,375 to accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2009.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded a fair value loss of $543,150 on the warrants.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company recorded a gain of $2,033,625.

The Company had a foreign exchange loss of $22,501 (YTD: $288,883) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to a gain of $3,062 (YTD: loss of $23,620) in 2010.  This is a direct result of the weakening of the US dollar compared to the Chilean Peso.

Excluding the above, the Company’s loss from operations was $2,642,796 (YTD: $6,594,315) in 2011, compared to a loss of $555,493 (YTD: $2,229,203) in the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2010.

The most significant differences were that (1) in the three month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company expended $193,806 (YTD: $1,717,194) on exploration programs in the field, including drilling, compared to $110,007 (YTD: $246,091) for the comparable period of 2010; and (2) total stock based compensation for shares issued and warrants granted of $1,901,227 (YTD: $3,168,911) was recorded for common shares granted under Stock Plan grants, compared to $69,406 (YTD: $989,082) for 2010.

Otherwise, many expenses continue to be comparable this quarter to the comparable quarter of 2010, except for the following material items:

·  
Advertising and Promotion of $17,572 (YTD: $60,865 (2010: 47,212 and 79,052), Investor relations of $nil (YTD: $62,298) (2010: $335), and Travel of $55,469 (YTD: $172,698) (2010: $30,181 and $78,008) were all up significantly as the Company engaged outside advisors to provide market awareness and information dissemination services, and traveled significantly to meet with investors and with consultants; and
·  
Amortization of $76,221 (YTD: $250,120 (2010: $7,363 and $21,166) reflects normal amortization of fixed assets and the amortization of the technology rights which commenced in late 2010.  In addition, during the quarter, the Company ramped up operations in the Chilean office to meet the needs of the pending final feasibility study.  Just under $100,000 of fixed assets were added during the quarter, the primary effect of which will be felt in the coming quarters.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued an update to the Fair Value topic.  This update requires new disclosures for (1) transfers in and out of levels 1 and 2; and (2) activity in level 3, by requiring the reconciliation to present separate information about purchases, sales, issuance and settlements.  Also, this update clarifies the disclosures related to the fair value of each class of assets and liabilities, and the input and valuation techniques for both recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements in levels 2 and 3.  The effective date for the disclosures and clarifications is for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010.  The Company’s adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-13, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades. ASU 2010-13 provides amendments to Topic 718 to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance or service condition.  Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity.  The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010.  The Company’s adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05 “Presentation of Comprehensive Income” eliminating the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as a part of the statement of shareholders’ equity. The standard requires other comprehensive income be presented as part of a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in a statement of other comprehensive income immediately following the statement of net income. This standard is not likely to change the presentation of our financial statements or affect the calculation of net income, comprehensive income or earnings per share. The new accounting guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
 
19

 

 
Our President and our CFO, after evaluating the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Rule 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Evaluation Date”), have concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recent quarter ended September 30, 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events.  Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there is only reasonable assurance that our controls will succeed in achieving their stated goals under all potential future conditions.
