PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

Overview

We were originally formed as Montrose Ventures, Inc. in the State of Delaware on May 25, 1989.  On April 23, 1996, our name was changed to Java Group, Inc., which tried and failed to start a chain of coffee bars.  On September 1, 2004 our name was changed to Consolidated General Corp., which tried to buy tier 2 and 3 professional sports teams, including the Vancouver Ravens lacrosse team and the San Diego Soccers soccer team.  On August 7, 2007, our Certificate of Incorporation was amended and restated, pursuant to which our name was changed to Goldcorp Holdings Co.  On October 15, 2010, our name was changed to GoldLand Holdings Co.

On September 14, 2007, we acquired an interest in 174.82 acres of land on War Eagle Mountain in Idaho from two of our major shareholders for a total of 90,000,000 shares of our common stock.  We acquired a 100% interest in 103 acres, and a 29.166% interest in 71.82 acres.  We also lease five placer claims on War Eagle Mountain from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, each of which covers approximately 20 acres, or approximately 100 acres in total.

On October 11, 2007, we leased the mining operations on our properties and claims to Silver Falcon Mining, Inc.  Under the lease, Silver Falcon is responsible for all mining activities on the land, and it is obligated to make annual lease payments of $1,000,000 per year payable monthly, a nonaccountable expense allowance of $10,000 per month for any month in which ore is mined from the property, and a royalty of 15% from any proceeds we receive from a refiner of ore produced from the land.  The lease, as amended, provides that lease payments must commence January 1, 2012.  The lease expires on October 1, 2026, although Silver Falcon has the right to extend the lease for an additional five years upon payment of a lease extension fee of $1,000,000. Pierre Quilliam, our chairman and chief executive officer, is also the chairman and chief executive officer of Silver Falcon.  

Since Silver Falcon leased our properties, it has expended substantial funds to develop mining operations and improve the property.  In 2009 and 2010, it constructed a milling facility on land it purchased at the base of the mountain, and began processing tailings at the mill in May 2010.  In 2011, it began construction of a metallurgical assay lab at the same site to process concentrate produced in its milling operation, which it expects to complete in mid-2012.  It also plans to begin construction of a closed circuit cyanide leaching and a bullion dore production facility on its mill site in the Fall of 2012 or 2013, after it has obtained the proper permits, in order to improve the yields from the tailings that it processes.

In 2010, Silver Falcon upgraded the roads to the Sinker Tunnel Complex to allow 25-ton trucks access to the site, and an area 300x400 feet was prepared to act as a staging area at the 5,200 foot level. The Sinker Tunnel was aerated in its entire length and the entrance to the Sinker Tunnel was permanently extended and secured to avoid land or snow slides to block access to the Sinker Tunnel. Permanent drainage pipes are being laid in the Sinker Tunnel as it was determined that the Sinker Tunnel is the main drain for the War Eagle complex. Mining and shoring or rock bolting of some weak points in the top wall is underway. Permitting for exploration of the Sinker Tunnel is underway with training for underground personnel and safety measures being installed per the latest mining rules and regulations.

History of Mining on War Eagle Mountain

War Eagle Mountain is one of three peaks in Southwest Idaho that form a contiguous fault trend, and which have all produced minerals from the same veins:  Delamar Mountain, Florida Mountain, and War Eagle Mountain.

In the summer of 1862, the Oro Fino Vein on top of War Eagle Mountain was discovered.  During 1863 a number of lode claims were located and mining in earnest began.  By the end of 1875 a total of ten shafts had been sunk in the Oro Fino Vein ranging in depth from 300 feet to 1,250 feet. The Oro Fino Shaft at the North end is 300 feet deep and the Mahogany Shaft at the South end is 1,100 feet deep. The Golden Chariot and Ida Elmore shafts are 1,250 feet and 1,000 feet respectively.  

By 1866, all the major mines in the area had been discovered and were being developed. The major mines were the Oro Fino, Cumberland, Poorman, Ida Elmore, Golden Chariot, Minnesota, Mahogany and the Morning Star in Silver City.  There were 12 mills in the area with a total of 132 stamps to pulverize the ore, separate the metal from the rock and pour the raw metal into larger rectangular bricks of bullion. This bullion was then shipped out of the area, sometimes as far away as Europe, for refining into pure gold and silver.  By the end of 1875, approximately 750,000 ounces of gold equivalent were reportedly extracted from the shafts on War Eagle Mountain.

In August 1875, a financial panic that had started in New York in 1873, culminated with the San Francisco bank crash, and then the closure of the San Francisco Stock Exchange. A nationwide depression occurred, which resulted in source of working capital for the mines drying up. The miners continued to work without pay until October 1875, when they left the mountain for employment elsewhere.  During the winter of 1875-1876, because the mine was not being used, the shafts filled with water.  This condition has existed for the past 131 years, which has resulted in the preservation of these historical vein systems without being disturbed by intruders or miners.

From 1875 through 1899, mining men who had managed and worked in the underground mines and milling operations tried to promote a project that would allow them to recover the remaining submerged gold and silver reserves they knew existed.  Finally, in November 1899, American Smelting and Refining Company (ASARCO) funded the Sinker Tunnel Project. The project objective was to drive a 10 x 10 tunnel from Sinker Creek on the North-East side of War Eagle Mountain, at an elevation of 5200 feet, approximately 2,000 feet below the bottom of the Golden Chariot Shaft. This tunnel was named the Sinker Tunnel, and its intended use was to drain water out of War Eagle Mountain and to haul ore mined from the veins to the surface for milling.  The cost of the project was about $250,000 (or the equivalent of $25,000,000 today).



5



It was anticipated that the Sinker Tunnel would intersect the Oro Fino Vein at about 7,000 feet from the tunnel portal.  The Oro Fino Vein was actually intersected at 6,890 feet in May 1902.  After the Sinker Tunnel was extended north about 80 feet, a raise was started upwards toward the bottom of the Golden Chariot Shaft.  When this raise reached 620 feet in height it was only 150 feet below the bottom of the Golden Chariot Shaft, which contained about 1,100 feet of water.  At this point the amount of water permeating down into the raise was increasing every day, which caused the miners to become anxious about their safety, and raised concerns as to how ASARCO would punch the final hole into the bottom of the Golden Chariot shaft.  The miners raised concerns with the Idaho Inspector of Mines about the working conditions and their concerns, which resulted in the Idaho Inspector of Mines stopping any further work in the area until safety measures were implemented.  At that time, ASARCO elected to close the project down, and return later if conditions changed, which never happened.  

During 1932 and 1933, some additional exploration tunnels were driven to the north and to the south from the raise.  In 1941, salvagers opened the Sinker Tunnel and removed all the steel rail and pipe scrap for the war effort. Shortly thereafter, a landslide completely buried the tunnel under 50 feet or more of earth and rock, and the Sinker Tunnel complex was forgotten.

In 1994, Mineral Extraction, Inc., the current owner at the time, rediscovered the location of the tunnel and over several years refurbished the Sinker Tunnel complex, with the exception of the upper four levels of the raise, nearest the bottom of the Golden Chariot shaft.  The entrance was excavated, and a semi-permanent structure was built to protect the site.  In addition, the entire length of the Sinker Tunnel was restored.  The roads to the Sinker Tunnel Complex were upgraded to allow 25-ton trucks access to the site, and an area 300x400 feet was prepared to act as a staging area at the 5,200 foot level.

The mines on War Eagle Mountain were very productive in the first few years because the surface deposits were of extraordinary richness. As the mines got deeper the veins had a smaller yet more consistent amount of ore in relation to the amount of rock that needed to be removed to expose it. Generally, the value of ore per ton of rock removed remained consistent from a depth of 150 feet to as deep as any of the mines were worked. This would indicate that the extensions of the veins into the deeper levels, not yet reached by the mine shafts, would contain the same percentage of metal ore.

The mines became more expensive to develop and operate as they got deeper. This was not due to a decline in the yield per ton, but due to the increased cost of lifting the mineral ore and of removing water from deeper shafts.  The removal of ground water in mines is a persistent expense that must be addressed on a daily basis. When a mine doesn't have a lower working level tunnel – like the Sinker Tunnel Complex – that intersects a vertical shaft, the water must be brought to the surface and disposed of no matter what the expense or technical inconvenience if the mine is to continue operating. This increased cost of mining at depth was one of the most significant problems for the mines on War Eagle Mountain.

Description of Mining Properties

We have one mining property, which is a variety of land and mining claims on and near War Eagle Mountain, Idaho.  War Eagle Mountain is located about 60 miles southwest of Boise, Idaho, and about one mile east of Silver City, Idaho.  The Sinker Tunnel is about 15 miles off of State Highway78 and the mine sites on the top of War Eagle Mountain are about 20 miles off of State Highway 78.  Access to both the Sinker Tunnel currently is by four wheel drive vehicle, as only the first seven miles of county roadway off of State Highway 78 is paved.  Below is a map illustrating the location and access to the Sinker Tunnel and top of War Eagle Mountain:

A patented mining claim is one which the federal government has passed title to the claimant, making the claimant the owner of the surface and mineral rights.  An unpatented mining claim is one which is still owned by federal government, but which the claimant has a right to possession to extract minerals, provided the land is open to mineral entry.  

There are two main types of mining claims, lode claims and placer claims.  Lode claims cover classic veins or lodes having well-defined boundaries. They also include other rock in-place bearing valuable minerals and may be broad zones of mineralized rock. Examples include quartz or other veins bearing gold or other metallic minerals and large volume but low-grade disseminated metallic deposits. Lode claims are usually described as parallelograms with the longer side lines parallel to the vein or lode. Descriptions are by metes and bounds surveys (giving length and direction of each boundary line). Federal law limits their size to a maximum of 1,500 feet in length along the vein or lodge. Their width is a maximum of 600 feet, 300 feet on either side of the centerline of the vein or lode. The end lines of the lode claim must be parallel to qualify for underground extralateral rights. Extralateral rights involve the rights to minerals that extend at depth beyond the vertical boundaries of the claim.

Placer claims include all deposits not subject to lode claims. Traditionally, these include only deposits of unconsolidated materials, such as sand and gravel, containing free gold or other minerals. Placer claims, where practicable, are located by legal subdivision of land. The maximum size of a placer claim is 20 acres.

Claims to federal land for mining purposes may be obtained by filing a claim with the Bureau of Land Management and paying a nominal fee.  A claim may be maintained as long at the holder engages in mining activity on the claim or, in lieu of mining activity, by filing an annual renewal form and paying an annual fee to the Bureau of Land Management by September 1 of each year.  The annual fee is $10 per claim for small miners and $140 per claim for large miners.  We are obligated to pay any annual fees to maintain the claims which we lease to Silver Falcon.

In 2010, as a result of a survey of portions of War Eagle Mountain, we allowed our Unpatented Placer Claims to lapse, and reapplied for new Unpatented Lode Claims covering the same veins.  The new Unpatented Lode Claims cover more acreage and are better oriented in the direction of the three veins in the mountain.  The Unpatented Placer Claims previously known as Great Western #1 through 4, and Cape Horn #1 are now known as Western Horn #7 through 14, which are Unpatented Lode Claims.  The Unpatented Placer Claims previously known as Goldland #25 and 26 are now known as Western Horn #3 through 6, which are Unpatented Lode Claims. The Unpatented Placer Claims previously known as Goldland #13 through 15 are now known as Diamond Creek #5, 6 and 8, which are Unpatented Lode Claims. The new Unpatented Lode Claims were originally titled in Silver Falcon’s name erroneously, but will be transferred formally to the Company.

We are not the sole owner of seven of the patented claims that we lease to Silver Falcon, and instead we only own 29.166% of the claims.  The remaining 70.834% of the patented claims are owned by a large number of descendants of the original parties that obtained the patent rights to the mining claims.  Silver Falcon and we are in the process of trying to identify and acquire the remainder of ownership of these mining claims.   

Geology of Mining Properties

War Eagle Mountain is the eastern most peak in the War Eagle-Florida-Delamar Mountain trend, which is an east to west chain of mountains in Southwestern Idaho.  All three peaks show the same type of gold and silver veins.  Kinross Gold Corporation owns Florida and Delamar Mountains.  Delamar Mountain, the western most of the three, had been successfully open pit mined from 1977 to the late 1990s.

The host rock on War Eagle Mountain is granite.  The veins containing gold and silver are primarily filled fissures in the host rock that occur primarily in a north-south direction.  The gold and silver bearing veins of War Eagle Mountain are steeply dipping to subvertical in attitude and are generally oriented in a NS to NW-SE direction.  For example, the Oro Fino/Golden Chariot vein, which is the vein that has been mined and explored the most, occurs at an 8 percent tilt to vertical.  The textures, mineralogy and geometry of the veins all indicate that they are "epithermal" deposits. This means that, according to the current interpretations, the minerals were deposited by hydrothermal solutions of “supercritical” very hot, high pressure water that made their way upward through the earth’s crust, depositing the minerals in the loose rock in the fissures.  The richest ores have been found in ore shoots, which are places where small cross-fractures intersect the main vein.  

Historical records indicate that the Oro Fino Vein system extends at least some 12,000 feet in a north-south direction and has been observed to vary greatly in thickness (from 0.5 ft to 25 ft) and mill grades of 0.5 to 1.25 Troy ounces of gold per ton.  The land that we and Silver Falcon own and lease encompasses only about 600 feet of the Oro Fino Vein system, but all of the major mine shafts that exist on the system.  Several large pockets of very rich ore concentration have been found scattered throughout at ore shoots. Mill grades have been encountered, at these ore shoots of  up to 25 Troy ounces per ton, with some areas showing grades as high as 90 to 300 oz gold/ton.

It is not known exactly how deep the vein systems are on War Eagle Mountain.  The Sinker Tunnel cuts through the Oro Fino Vein approximately 2,500 feet below the outcrop on the surface which was still strong and well developed.  To date, only about the first 300 to 1100 feet in depth of the Oro Fino Vein has been mined on approximately 15% of its total known length.

Because the host rock on War Eagle Mountain is granite, the mine shafts on War Eagle Mountain are very stable, with minimal need to shore the walls with timber.  As a result, the shafts left by prior mining activity are still in usable condition.  Also, the Sinker Tunnel Complex needs almost no timber to shore or brace its walls or ceilings.  

Mining activity to date has focused on three veins that show at the surface of War Eagle Mountain – the Oro Fino Vein system, the Poorman Vein system and the Central Vein system – with the Oro Fino Vein being the most productive.  The Poorman Vein is about 1,000 feet to the west of the Oro Fino Vein.  Historically, the Poorman vein has produced mostly silver.  The Oro Fino Vein system has approximately 6 other vein systems associated with it, while some 40 additional main vein systems are believed to exist on War Eagle Mountain.

At present, work on the mine consists largely of vertical mine shafts at the top of War Eagle Mountain, which were started by miners in the 1800’s, typically on top of a vein that was evident from an outcropping on the surface.  The interiors of the mine shafts are believed to be in good shape, but they are all flooded from groundwater and will have to be drained before active mining can commence.  Silver Falcon plans to drain the mine shafts by connecting them to the Sinker Tunnel below.  We have recollared five mine shafts with stones and steel rails to make them safer and prevent rain water from entering the mines. Prior owners of the Sinker Tunnel refurbished the tunnel entrance, but Silver Falcon has made additional improvements to the entrance.

Water is available on the property.  Power will be supplied by generators.  

None of the properties have been surveyed by a competent professional engineer, nor have the properties been evaluated to determine whether any mineral deposits can be mined profitably at current market rates.  Therefore, the properties are without known reserves and our proposed mining activities are exploratory in nature at this time.  The most comprehensive survey of the mineralogy of War Eagle Mountain is a report issued by the Idaho Bureau of Mines and Geology in 1926.  However, the authors of the report did not have access to the flooded mine shafts, and developed their report from visual observation of the surface, reports of past mining activity, and interviews with mining engineers who had previously worked at the site. Other reports include a report prepared in 1928 by Sinker Tunnel Mining Co., which at the time was in the process of refurbishing and extending the Sinker Tunnel, and a report issued by Copper Range Exploration in 1970.  However, the mountain has never been surveyed with a comprehensive scheme of core samples to locate and assess the veins that exist on the mountain.  All representations of potential quantities of minerals are based on historical records which are believed to be accurate, but which may not have been performed pursuant to modern standards for evaluating mineral claims.

Competition

We have no competition for the extraction of minerals from War Eagle Mountain, since no other mining company has an interest on War Eagle Mountain at this time.  However, the mineral extraction business in general is highly competitive.  Numerous larger mining companies actively seek out and bid for mining prospects and properties as well as for the services of third-party providers and supplies, such as mining equipment, transportation equipment and refiners, upon which we rely.  Many of these companies not only explore for, produce and market minerals, but also carry out smelting and refining operations and market the resultant products on a worldwide basis.  Most of our competitors have longer operating histories and substantially greater financial and personnel resources than we do.



10


 

Competitive conditions may be substantially affected by various forms of legislation and regulation considered from time to time by the government of the United States and the states in which we have operations, as well as factors that we cannot control, including international political conditions, overall levels of supply and demand for minerals, and currency fluctuations.

Markets and Major Customers

We have leased all of our mining properties to Silver Falcon, which is thus our only customer for minerals mined from our property.  Silver Falcon’s original plan was to process the ore it mines into concentrate and then contract with a refinery to refine the concentrate and purchase any resulting minerals at market prices, less a commission.  While there are a number of refiners which will refine concentrate on a contract basis, its current plan is to construct its own smelting operation to convert its concentrate into dore bars, and then ship the dore bars to a refinery for final processing.  Silver Falcon believes that operating its own smelting operation will allow it to control the processing of its minerals better, including the ability to more precisely assay its production before it is shipped to a third party for final processing.  Under our lease agreement with Silver Falcon, we are entitled to receive a royalty of 15% of any amounts Silver Falcon receives from the refinery.

Seasonality of Business

Weather conditions will affect the ability of Silver Falcon to mine ore from our property.  Generally, from November to April of each year the road leading to the top of the mountain property is impassable because of snow but access through the Sinker Tunnel is available year round.  Silver Falcon plans to mine and deliver ore to the mill it has erected at the base of the mountain from the Sinker Tunnel to ensure a steady stream of revenues throughout the year.

Operational Risks

Mining involves a high degree of risk, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome.  Mining involves the risk that fires, shaft collapses, flooding, equipment failure, human error and other circumstances may cause significant injury to persons or property, and may affect our ability to extract mine ore from our properties without significant additional capital expenditures. In such event, substantial liabilities to third parties or governmental entities may be incurred, the satisfaction of which could substantially reduce available cash and possibly result in loss of our leased mining properties. Such hazards may also cause damage to or destruction of our mine shafts, producing formations, production facilities, storage and transportation facilities, or other processing facilities.

We will not insure fully against all risks associated with our business either because such insurance is not available or because we believe the premium costs are prohibitive. A loss not fully covered by insurance could have a materially adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations. For further discussion on risks see “Risk Factors” below.

Regulation

Our business is subject to extensive U.S., federal, state and local laws and regulations governing development, production, labor standards, occupational health, waste disposal, use of toxic substances, environmental regulations, mine safety and other matters relating to the resource industry.  Most of the extraction operations will require permits or authorizations from federal, state or local agencies.  Silver Falcon is responsible for compliance with all applicable laws and regulations under the terms of our lease with Silver Falcon, but the denial or vacating of permits needed by Silver Falcon could have a material adverse effect on its ability to pay us.  In view of the many uncertainties with respect to current and future laws and regulations, we cannot predict the overall effect of such laws and regulations on our future revenues.



11


 

Silver Falcon is subject to the Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977, which is administered by the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”).  MSHA has the power to make routine surprise inspections.  In the event MSHA finds that Silver Falcon’s operations violate mine safety regulations, MSHA has the power to issue orders requiring that it remedy the violation, closing its mine until the remedy is implemented, and imposing fines for violations, among other things.  To the extent that federal or state environmental or mine safety regulatory agencies order certain of its mines to be temporarily or permanently closed, such order would have a material adverse effect on its ability to pay us.

In addition to existing regulatory requirements, legislation and regulations may be adopted or permit limits reduced at any time that result in additional operating expense, capital expenditures or restrictions and delays in the mining, production or development of our properties. Mining accidents and fatalities, whether or not at our mines or related to gold and silver mining, may increase the likelihood of additional regulation or changes in law.

Legislative and regulatory measures to address climate change and greenhouse gas emissions are in various phases of consideration. If adopted, such measures could increase Silver Falcon’s cost of environmental compliance and also delay or otherwise negatively affect efforts to obtain permits and other regulatory approvals with regard to existing and new facilities. Proposed measures could also result in increased cost of fuel and other consumables used at Silver Falcon’s operations if it is unable to regularly access utility power. Climate change legislation may also affect Silver Falcon’s smelter operations to the extent they burn fossil fuels, resulting in increased costs to it, and may affect the market for the metals it produces with effects on prices that are not possible for us to predict.

From time to time, the U.S. Congress considers proposed amendments to the General Mining Law of 1872, as amended, which governs mining claims and related activities on federal lands. The extent of any future changes is not known and the potential impact on us as a result of U.S. Congressional action is difficult to predict. Changes to the General Mining Law, if adopted, could adversely affect our or Silver Falcon’s ability to economically develop mineral reserves on federal lands. Although we are not currently mining on federal land, exploration and future mining could occur on federal land.

We expect that our operations will comply in all material respects with applicable laws and regulations.  We believe that the existence and enforcement of such laws and regulations will have no more restrictive an effect on our operations than on other similar companies in the resource industry.

Environmental

General. Mining operations on War Eagle Mountain are subject to local, state and federal laws and regulations governing environmental quality and pollution control in the United States. The extraction of mineral ore, as well as smelting and refining ore, are subject to stringent environmental regulation by state and federal authorities, including the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"). Such regulation can increase the cost of planning, designing, installing and operating mining facilities.



12



Significant fines and penalties may be imposed for the failure to comply with environmental laws and regulations. Some environmental laws provide for joint and several strict liability for remediation of releases of hazardous substances, rendering a person liable for environmental damage without regard to negligence or fault on the part of such person. In addition, we may be subject to claims alleging personal injury or property damage as a result of alleged exposure to hazardous substances.

Waste Disposal. Mining operations on War Eagle Mountain may generate wastes, including hazardous wastes, that are subject to the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") and comparable state statutes. The EPA has limited the disposal options for certain wastes that are designated as hazardous under RCRA ("Hazardous Wastes").  Furthermore, it is possible that certain wastes generated by mining operations on War Eagle Mountain that are currently exempt from treatment as Hazardous Wastes may in the future be designated as Hazardous Wastes, and therefore be subject to more rigorous and costly operating and disposal requirements.

CERCLA. The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), also known as the "Superfund" law, generally imposes joint and several liability for costs of investigation and remediation and for natural resource damages, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons with respect to the release into the environment of substances designated under CERCLA as hazardous substances ("Hazardous Substances").  These classes of persons or so-called potentially responsible parties include the current and certain past owners and operators of a facility where there is or has been a release or threat of release of a Hazardous Substance and persons who disposed of or arranged for the disposal of the Hazardous Substances found at such a facility. CERCLA also authorizes the EPA and, in some cases, third parties to take action in response to threats to the public health or the environment and to seek to recover from the potentially responsible parties the costs of such action.  Mining operations on War Eagle Mountain may generate wastes that fall within CERCLA's definition of Hazardous Substances, and predecessor mining companies on our properties may have generated wastes that fall within CERCLA's definition of Hazardous Substances.

Air Emissions.  Mining operations on War Eagle Mountain may be subject to local, state and federal regulations for the control of emissions of air pollution. Major sources of air pollutants are subject to more stringent, federally imposed permitting requirements, including additional permits. If ozone problems are not resolved by the deadlines imposed by the federal Clean Air Act, or on schedule to meet the standards, even more restrictive requirements may be imposed, including financial penalties based upon the quantity of ozone producing emissions. If the operator of mining operations on War Eagle Mountain fails to comply strictly with applicable air pollution regulations or permits, we may be subject to monetary fines and be required to correct any identified deficiencies. Alternatively, regulatory agencies could require us to forego construction, modification or operation of certain air emission sources.

Clean Water Act.  The Clean Water Act requires permits for operations that discharge into waters of the United States. Such permitting has been a frequent subject of litigation by environmental advocacy groups, which has resulted, and may in the future result, in declines in such permits or extensive delays in receiving them. This may result in delays in, or in some instances preclude, the commencement or continuation of development or production operations. Adverse outcomes in lawsuits challenging permits or failure to comply with applicable regulations could result in the suspension, denial, or revocation of required permits, which could have a material adverse impact on our cash flows, results of operations, or financial condition.

We believe that we are in substantial compliance with current applicable environmental laws and regulations and that, absent the occurrence of an extraordinary event, compliance with existing local, state, federal and international laws, rules and regulations governing the release of materials in the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment will not have a material effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Research and Development Expenditures

We have not incurred any research or development expenditures in the last two fiscal years.

Patents and Trademarks

We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patents or trademarks.

Employees and Consultants

At March 22, 2012, we had five employees.

We have no collective bargaining agreements with our employees, and believe all consulting and employment agreements relationships are satisfactory.   We hire independent contractors on an as- needed basis, and we may retain additional employees and consultants during the next twelve months, including additional executive management personnel with substantial experience in the mining exploration and development business.
