Section 4 Matters Related to Accountants and Financial Statements

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

(a) Prior independent registered public accounting firm

On January 27, 2016 (the “Resignation Date”) Star Mountain Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) was notified by our independent auditors, HJ & Associates, LLC (“HJ”), that as a result of the sale of HJ’s assets to Haynie & Company of Salt Lake City, UT (“Haynie”), HJ has resigned as our independent registered public accounting firm. As a result of such resignation, on January 27, 2016, we engaged Haynie, as our new independent registered public accounting firm by way of the unanimous written resolution of our board of directors on the same date.

The reports of HJ on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 did not contain an adverse or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles except that both such reports raised substantial doubts on our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of the Company’s recurring losses from operations and working capital deficit.

During the two most recent fiscal years and through the Resignation Date, there were (i) no disagreements between the Company and HJ on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of HJ, would have caused HJ to make reference thereto in their reports on the consolidated financial statements for such years, and (ii) no “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided HJ with a copy of this Form 8-K and requested that HJ furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not HJ agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter, dated January 29, 2016, is attached as Exhibit 16.1.

(b) New independent registered public accounting firm

On January 27, 2016, our Board of Directors approved the engagement of Haynie as our independent registered public accounting firm and Haynie was engaged on January 27, 2016. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and in the subsequent interim period through the Resignation Date, the Company has not consulted with Haynie regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Haynie concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
