Grant Hartford Corporation

Our Company is a mineral exploration, development and production company, that is currently in the exploration stage of historically designated mineralized material on the Garnet Mineral Property, located in Missoula, Montana. We have acquired an exclusive option to purchase the mineral rights to 23 patented mineral claims and 122 unpatented mineral claims located within the Garnet Mining District of Granite County, Montana from Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C., is owned by Aaron Charlton, Creative Financial P.S. Plan, Kim Charlton-Benson and Eric Sauve. Mr. Eric Sauve is our president, CEO, CFO, and Director. Mr. Aaron Charlton is our Senior Consultant. Messrs. Charlton and Sauve are two of the Company's five full time employees. Aaron Charlton and Eric Sauve are related parties to our Company, Grant Hartford Corporation. The owner of record of 121 unpatented claims is Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. One unpatented claim, NHC 0112, was not filed with the Bureau of Land Management to meet time requirements and has been restaked by WGM Survey Co., and is in the process of being filed and properly recorded with the Bureau of Land Management and the Granite County Clerk and Recorder. Commonwealth Resources, LLC holds these 122 unpatented and 23 patented claims pursuant to the terms of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement for our Company. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. retained the services of WGM Survey Co. of Missoula, Montana to physically stake and record ownership in these 122 unpatented mineral claims with Granite County, Montana and the Bureau of Land Management. The owner of record on 22 of the 23 patented mineral claims is Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. The owner of record of one (1) patented claim, the Free Coin, is River Terrace Estates, Inc. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. entered into a Mining Lease between River Terrace Estates, Inc. and Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. which provides for a lease and option to purchase the Free Coin patented mining claim. This Mining Lease has been partially assigned to Grant Hartford Corporation both by the terms of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement between Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. and the Company and through a Partial Assignment of Amended Mining Lease, which assigned to GHC the leasehold interest in the Amended Mining Lease and the right to acquire, upon exercise of the purchase option defined in the Lease and Amended Lease, the mineral rights in and to the mining claim. The material terms of the Free Coin patented mining claim transaction are further set forth in the "Material Terms of Related Party Agreements" section of this Prospectus on page 34.

1


The 122 unpatented mineral claims are administered by the United States Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") under the provisions provided for by the 1872 Mining Law. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.'s interest in these 122 unpatented mineral claims will continue into perpetuity provided that Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. pays a $125 maintenance fee each year on each mineral claim in compliance with the Bureau of Land Management regulations pertaining to unpatented mining claims. The required amount of expenditure for Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. to hold these 122 claims is $15,250 per year. Grant Hartford Corporation has the initial responsibility to pay these fees on behalf of Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C., pursuant to the Grant Hartford Option Agreement. The terms of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement are further set forth in the "Material Terms of Related Party Agreements" section of this Prospectus on page 34. The maintenance figure is set by the BLM and can be altered only in its sole discretion.

The 23 patented mining claims are fee simple properties. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.'s interest in these 22 patented mineral claims will continue in perpetuity, provided that Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. pays the assessed property taxes for each respective mining claim to Granite County, Montana. The current required tax expenditure for Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. to hold these 22 patented claims is $1,362 per year. Grant Hartford Corporation has the initial responsibility to pay these property taxes on behalf of Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C., pursuant to the Grant Hartford Option Agreement. The terms of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement are further set forth in the "Material Terms of Related Party Agreements" section of this Prospectus on page 34. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.'s interest in the Free Coin patented mineral claim will continue for a period of seven (7) year beginning on March 29, 2007, provided that Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. complies with the material terms of the Amended Mining Lease, which are set forth in the "Material Terms of Related Party Agreements" section of this Prospectus on page 34.

We entered into the Grant Hartford Option Agreement, which conveys an exclusive option to purchase the mineral rights on the 23 patented mining claims and an exclusive option to purchase the 122 unpatented mining claims from Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. Pursuant to this contract, we have the right to explore for minerals, develop potential mining targets, and enter into limited gold production. The terms of this Grant Hartford Option Agreement requires the issuance by us of 19,000,000 shares of our no par value common stock, annual Option payments by us of $190,000 during the first five (5) year period and $400,000 during the final two (2) year period of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement and an annual access lease payment of $60,000. The agreement was executed on June 15, 2007 for a term of seven (7) years. We may exercise our option to purchase the mineral rights to the patented claims and the unpatented claims at any time for a cash payment to Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. of $7,000,000. The material terms of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement are further set forth in the "Material Terms of Related Party Agreements" section of this Prospectus on page 34.

The "Garnet Project Summary," prepared by Pegasus Gold Corporation, the "Mineral Property Valuation of the Garnet and Copper Cliff Mining Districts in Granet and Missoula Counties," by John C. Brower, Ph.D., and the "Geologic Examination of the Economic Potential for Gold Mining at the Garnet Area Gold Mining Property," by Thomas J. Peters, who was commissioned by Grant Hartford Corporation to confirm and update the previous studies, together enable the Company to proceed with exploration activities to further designate mineralized material.

The Company's drilling program was designed to quantify, through the use of definition drilling, both open pit and underground mine, mineralized material targets identified by the previous

2


Pegasus exploration program. The Company intends to use this information to proceed with a prefeasibility or scoping study in order to determine the existence of proven/probable reserves.

During 2008, GHC completed 54 drill holes, with total drill footage of 12,497.5 feet. All holes were completed during the third and fourth quarters of 2008. Original drill plans included drilling on over eight (8) targets. Due to the promising results obtained in the first three zones drilled, drilling was concentrated on these three zones. The drilling plan called for definition drilling near designated mineralized material zones encountered by Pegasus between 1989 and 1992.

In 2009 the Company intends to drill numerous other targets not drilled in 2008 as well as improve the establishment of continuity between drill holes in zones previously drilled in our exploration activities to support prefeasibility or scoping studies.

We are in the exploration stage of our business plan. We have not, as yet, earned any revenues from our planned operations. As of December 31, 2008, we had $1,535 cash on hand and liabilities of $923,338. Accordingly, our working capital position as of December 31, 2008 was ($617,930). Since our inception through December 31, 2008, we have incurred a net loss of $1,218,923. We attribute our net loss to having no revenues to offset our expenses and the professional fees related to organizing our company, acquisition of the 145 patented and unpatented mining claims, and the operation of our business. The Company anticipates incurring capital expenditures of $1,818,000 for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009. The average monthly capital expenditure for that period of time is estimated to be $167,333. Our current working capital is not sufficient to enable us to complete Phase I of the exploration program on the property. Accordingly, we will require additional financing. In the event that available capital is insufficient to sustain minimum operations, we may be compelled to discontinue our business.

The Company's fiscal year end is December 31.

Organization

We were organized on March 15, 2007, under the laws of the State of Montana. Our principal office is located at 619 South West Higgins, Suite O, Missoula, Montana 59803. The Company's phone number is (406) 531-3363.

2007 Exempt Offering

2007 Exempt Offering

On October 31, 2007, we completed a second exempt offering pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company issued 793,900 shares of the Company's no par value common stock to 45 accredited investors at a purchase price of $0.50 per share, for an aggregate price of $396,950.

3


2008 Exempt Offering

On May 31, 2008, we completed a third exempt offering pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company issued 236,295 shares of the Company's no par value common stock to 11 accredited investors at a purchase price of $0.80 per share, for an aggregate price of $189,036.

2008 Convertible Note Offering

Between July 22, 2008 and November 6, 2008, the Company entered into eight (8) Non-Transferable Convertible Notes (the "Notes") in the aggregate sum of $271,500. The Notes were entered into pursuant to exempt transactions.

The material terms of the Non-Transferable Convertible Notes (the "Notes") are as follows: The Notes are for a term of two (2) years, wherein interest is due semi-annually at a varying interest rate depending upon the Note, between 12% and 14%. The Lender may choose to convert to common stock at any time, however, if conversion is made prior to six (6) months from the date of signing, the conversion price will include interest for a six (6) month period. At conversion, all or any portion of the unpaid balance and accrued interest may be converted into common stock at a conversion price equal to the closing market price of the common stock. If conversion takes place on the date GHC is first listed on the Over The Counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB"), Lender may convert at a conversion price of 95% of the initial share price quoted on the day of conversion. Upon conversion Lender shall receive additional shares of GHC common stock, over and above the converted amount, in the form of an Incentive Bonus equal to the principal amount of the Note, multiplied by 2.5% and divided by the share price at conversion. GHC will offer to include any common stock held by Lender upon conversion, in any subsequent registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act. GHC will give a thirty day notice of intention to file said registration statement to Lender and Lender has 10 days to accept such registration, once GHC gives notice. Default on the Note by GHC may occur if one or more of the following events take place: nonpayment, GHC filing bankruptcy, and the appointment of receiver, custodian, trustee or assignee to take possession of the property. GHC has fifteen (15) days to cure the default, which would include the payment of a late fee of 15% the semi-annual interest payment and any costs and legal fees associated with the default to Lender. The net proceeds to GHC on each Note is the principal sum of the Note. The aggregate net proceeds to date on the eight (8) Notes is $271,500. Leo Sauve holds two of the eight Notes, totaling $26,000.00, and is the father of Eric Sauve, our President and CEO.

2009 Promissory Notes

Between January 1, 2009 and June 30, 2009 the Company entered into eighteen (18) Promissory Notes (the "Promissory Notes") in the aggregate sum of $750,000. The Promissory Notes were entered into pursuant to a corporate debt transaction.

The material terms of the Promissory Notes are as follows: The Promissory Notes are for a term of one (1) year, whereby interest is due at the end of the term at a rate of 12.5%. Default on the Promissory Notes by GHC may occur if the principal and interest is not paid on the due date. If said sum is not paid when due, the indebtedness shall bear interest at the rate of 15% per annum from the date of default, or declaration of default, whichever shall first occur. The Note Holder shall be entitled to collect all reasonable costs and expenses of collection and/or suit, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney's fees.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our shares is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Therefore, you should not invest in our shares unless you are able to bear a loss of your entire investment. You should carefully consider the following factors as well as the other information contained herein before deciding to invest in our shares. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from our expectations, statements or projections include the risks and uncertainties relating to our business described above. This Prospectus and statements that we may make from time to time may contain forward-looking information. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from our expectations, statements or projections.

5


Risk Factors Relating to Our Business

1:   We have limited operating history and limited historical financial information upon which you may evaluate our performance.

You should consider, among other factors, our prospects for success in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered by companies that, like ours, are in the exploration stage. We may not successfully address these risks and uncertainties or successfully implement our business plan. If we fail to do so, it could materially harm our business and impair the value of our common stock. Even if we accomplish these objectives, we may not generate positive cash flows or profits that we anticipate in the future.

Unanticipated problems, expenses and delays are frequently encountered in establishing a new business and in the exploration stages of the search for mineral deposits. These include, but are not limited to, inadequate funding, competition, and unsuccessful mineralized material exploration. Our failure to meet any of these conditions would have a materially adverse effect upon us and may force us to reduce or curtail operations. No assurance can be given that we can or will ever operate profitably.

2:    We will require additional funding

As of June 30, 2009, we had cash in the amount of $65,916. Our 2009 exploration program will require approximately $1,140,000 to complete. We will require additional financing in order to begin and complete future phases of the recommended exploration programs, as well as any additional exploration. We currently do not have any operations and have no income. Our business plan calls for significant exploration expenses. We will also require additional financing if further exploration programs are necessary. We will require additional financing to sustain our business operations if we are not successful in earning revenues once exploration is complete. In the event that our exploration programs are successful in sufficiently estimating the mineralized material continuity between drill holes and we exercise our property purchase option, we will require additional funds in order to place the patented and unpatented mining claims into the development and commercial production stages. We currently do not have any arrangements for financing and we may not be able to obtain financing when required and on favorable terms. Obtaining additional financing would be subject to a number of factors, including the market prices for gold, silver and other metallic minerals and the costs of exploring for, developing and producing these materials. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms, or conditions for additional financing unavailable to us, which would force us to reduce our operations or even cease operations.

3:   Auditor has raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern

The report of our independent auditor regarding our audited financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2008 indicates that there are a number of factors that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Such factors identified in the report are that we have an accumulated deficit since inception of (2,061,133) for the period from our inception, March 15, 2007, to December 31, 2008 and have no revenues. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain financing and upon successful exploration and future development and productions stages on the patented and unpatented mining claims. This is a significant risk to investors who purchase shares of our common stock because there is an increased risk that we may not be able to generate and/or raise enough capital to remain operational for an indefinite

6


period of time. Potential investors should also be aware of the difficulties normally encountered in the exploration stage of mining companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. Our auditor's concern may inhibit our ability to raise financing because we may not remain operational for an indefinite period of time resulting in potential investors failing to receive any return on their investment. Persons who cannot afford to lose their entire investment should not invest in this offering.

4:   We are a new company with no history

We have just begun exploration of our mining claim holdings for which we have acquired our options. As a result, we have no way to evaluate the likelihood that we will be able to operate the business successfully. We were incorporated on March 15, 2007, and to date, we have been involved primarily in organizational activities, the acquisition of an option to purchase interests in 145 patented and unpatented mining claims, obtaining an independent consulting geologist's report on these mining claims, and completing our 2008 exploration program. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful. We have not earned any revenues as of the date of this prospectus, and thus, we face a high risk of business failure.

5:  We rely on consultants

We have a written agreement with our consulting geologist, Thomas J. Peters; that requires him to review all of the historical information available on the mining claims we have under option, the results from the previous exploration work performed on these mining claims, and to make recommendations based on those reviews. We also have an oral agreement and written confirmation with our consulting geologist, Ted Antonioli, to perform geological recommendations and assist in the permitting process. We also have an agreement with the University of Montana to utilize the Geological Department and Geographical Information Systems Department to digitize data and have a verbal agreement retaining the services of Dr. James Sears. In addition, we have agreements with: Norris Labs to perform analyses on geological samples; Kirk Engineering for a water base line study and survey for a mill and tailings impoundment; with BJ Ambrose for his full time services as the Vice President of Corporate Finance; with Tim Matthews for his full time services as the Vice President of Marketing; with J. Robert Flesher for his full time services as Vice President of Mining and Geology; with Aaron Charlton for full time management services and with Eric Sauve for full time management services.

Each of these functions requires the services of persons in high demand in the industry and these persons may or may not always be available when needed. The implementation of our business plan may be impaired if these parties do not perform in accordance with their written and oral agreements.

6:   Common ownership of GHC and Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.

Our sole material assets are the options to the Garnet Mining Claims, which claims are owned, or optioned by Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. The Optionor, Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. is owned in part by Mr. Eric Sauve, who is the President, CEO, CFO and Director of Grant Hartford Corporation. In addition, Mr. Aaron Charlton, who is a Senior Consultant to the Company, is likewise a majority owner and the Managing Member of Commonwealth Resources,

L.L.C. Mr. Charlton negotiated in good faith on behalf of and for the best interest of Commonwealth Resources L.L.C. and Mr. Eric Sauve negotiated on behalf of and in good faith and at arm's length for the best interest of Grant Hartford Corporation. The negotiations concluded in a Letter of Intent which was signed on March 22, 2007. The Option Agreement became effective on June 15, 2007. At the time the Option Agreement became effective Eric Sauve was not a Membership owner of Commonwealth Resources L.L.C. and did not become a member until August 31, 2007. We, at this point, have not voluntarily implemented various corporate governance measures, in the absence of which, stockholders may have more limited protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters. In the interim, or until such time as we adopt more definitive conflict of interest and ethics rules, which will include the rules set forth in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, Federal legislation. Any future potential conflicts will be governed by the independent members of the Board of Directors. However, any conflict of interest with our President, CEO, CFO, Directors and our Senior Consultant, could result in a loss of confidence by our shareholders or potential investors and could result in a disruption to the business, adversely affecting our Company and the existing shareholders.

7:   Unanticipated issues may occur

Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new exploration stage companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the exploration stage. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to exploration, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. The exploration stage also involves numerous hazards. As a result, we may become subject to liability for such hazards, including pollution, cave-ins and other hazards against which the Company cannot insure, or against which it may elect not to insure. At the present time, we have no insurance coverage to insure against these hazards. The payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on our financial position. In addition, there is no assurance that the expenditures to be made by us in the exploration of the mineral claims will result in determining the existence of proven/probable reserve deposits. Problems such as unusual or unexpected formations and other conditions are involved in exploration and often result in unsuccessful exploration efforts.

8:   We will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future

Prior to completion of the exploration stage, we anticipate that we will incur increased operating expenses without realizing any revenues. We expect to incur continuing and significant losses into the foreseeable future. As a result of continuing losses, we may exhaust all of our resources and be unable to complete exploration of our optioned mineral claims. Our accumulated deficit will continue to increase as we continue to incur losses. We may not be able to generate profits or continue operations if we are unable to generate significant revenues from future mining of the mineral claims even if we exercise our options. There is limited history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will be successful, and we may not be able to generate any operating revenues or ever achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail.

9:   Because access to the mineral property may be restricted by inclement weather, the Company may be delayed in its exploration efforts

Access to the mineral property may be restricted during parts of the year, due to weather in the area. The property is in a mountainous area in the Garnet Mining District, Granite County, Montana. The terrain is mountainous, and the property is accessed by county roads, Bureau of Land Management roads, and private roads. Although these roads have been used for exploration in the past, they are best traveled by four-wheel drive vehicles from spring to the beginning of winter. During the winter months, heavy snowfall can make it difficult to undertake work programs. We do not currently plan drilling operations in the winter months. Frequent inclement weather in the winter months makes exploration activities difficult and the planning of exploration activities challenging. As a result, any attempt to explore the property is largely limited to the times when weather permits such activities. The most efficient time for us to conduct our work programs is during the months of May through November. These limitations can result in significant delays in our exploration efforts, as well as any future production, in the event of unsuccessful determination of the existence of proven/probable reserves. Delays in exploration and drilling due to inclement weather could significantly increase the time that it would take to generate any operating revenues or prohibit achieving profitable operations.

10:   If management cannot devote sufficient time to operations, its business may fail

Mr. Sauve, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, devotes his full time and attention to our business affairs. We have an Employment Agreement with Mr. Sauve. Mr. Aaron Charlton, our Senior Consultant, also devotes his full time and attention to our business affairs. We have an Employment Agreement with Mr. Charlton. J. Robert Flesher, our Vice President of Mining and Geology, devotes his full time and attention to our development program. We have an oral Employment Agreement with Mr. J. Robert Flesher. BJ Ambrose, our Vice President of Corporate Finance, devotes his full time and attention to our business affairs. We have an Employment Agreement with Mr. Ambrose. Tim Matthews, our Vice President of Marketing, devotes his full time and attention to our business affairs. We have an Employment Agreement with Mr. Matthews. Currently, we retain the services of five consulting geologists on a part-time basis. If our management is unable to devote a sufficient amount of time to manage our operations, our business could fail.

11:   Sales of substantial amounts of common stock may adversely affect prevailing market price

Our President, Mr. Eric Sauve, is the beneficial owner of 3,232,830 shares of our common stock, which equates to 14.38% of our issued and outstanding common stock. Our Senior Consultant, Aaron Charlton, is beneficial owner of 9,440,566 shares of our common stock which equates to 41.99% of our issued and outstanding common stock. Rodney Haynes beneficially owns 4,742,076 shares of our common stock which equates to 21.09% of our issued and outstanding common stock. There is presently no public market for our common stock; however, we propose to apply for quotation of our common stock on the NASD Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB") upon the effectiveness of this Registration Statement, of which this Prospectus forms a part. If our shares are publicly traded on the OTCBB, Mr. Sauve, Mr. Charlton and/or Creative Finance PFP will be eligible to sell their shares publicly, subject to the volume limitations of Rule 144. The sale of a large number of shares at any price may cause the market price to fall. Sales of substantial amounts of common stock or the perception that such transactions could occur, may materially and adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock.

12:   The mine exploration business is highly competitive

The mine exploration business is highly competitive. Our preparation activities will be focused on exploring our mineral property in order to determine the existence of proven/probable reserves. Many of our competitors have greater financial resources than we have. As a result, we may experience difficulty competing with other businesses regarding availability of equipment and qualified personnel. If we are unable to retain qualified personnel, or locate needed equipment while conducting exploration activities, we may be unable to enter into the development and production stages and may be unable to achieve profitable operations.

13:   A ready market may not exist for the sale of the future identified proven/probable reserves

Even if the Company is able to successfully explore, develop and prepare an established commercially minable proven/probable reserve deposit, a ready market may not exist for the sale of the extracted proven/probable reserves. Numerous factors beyond our control may affect the marketability of gold proven/probable reserves that are prepared for production. These factors include market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets, processing equipment, government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, and environmental laws and regulations. These factors could inhibit our ability to sell proven/probable reserves in the event that the Company is able to successfully explore, develop and prepare an established commercially minable proven/probable reserve deposit for extraction.

14:   There is a risk that new regulations could increase our costs

The Montana Department of Environmental Quality and the Bureau of Land Management have jurisdiction and enforce laws and enact and enforce rules and regulations relating to the exploration, development and production of proven/probable reserves. We will be subject to these laws, rules and regulations as we carry out our exploration program. We are required to obtain drilling permits, post bonds and perform remediation work for any physical disturbance to the land in order to comply with these laws, rules and regulations. Currently, we have not experienced any difficulty with compliance of any laws or regulations which affect our business. While we have planned exploration program budgets for regulatory compliance, there is a risk that new laws, rules or regulations could increase our costs of doing business, preventing us from carrying out our exploration program and, therefore, adversely affecting our operational results.

15:   In the event that our mining claims become invalid, we will lose all rights that we have in the 23 patented and 122 unpatented mining claims

The 23 patented and 122 unpatented mining claims are owned by Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. and are under an option to us. WGM Group, a professional survey company in Missoula, Montana, surveyed, staked and filed all 122 unpatented claims, with the exception of unpatented claim NHC 0112, which has been restaked and is currently being filed on behalf of Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. These claims were staked on public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management. The right to conduct exploration, development and production mining programs on these 122 unpatented mining claims is subject to permitting by the Bureau of Land Management. The right to conduct exploration, development and production mining programs on the 23 patented mining claims is subject to permitting by the Montana Department of Environmental Quality. The invalidity of any claims would have an adverse affect on any future revenues.

10


In order to keep the 122 unpatented mining claims in good standing, the Bureau of Land Management requires that an annual maintenance fee be paid before August 31st of each year. In the event that these maintenance fees are not paid by the August 31st deadline, the mining claims become invalid and revert to the Bureau of Land Management. In the event that our mining claims become invalid, we will lose all rights that we have in the 122 unpatented mining claims.

In order to keep the 23 patented mining claims in good standing, the Granite County, Montana Treasurer requires assessed property taxes to be paid for each respective mining claim by the July 31st of each year. If, or when, property taxes become three years delinquent, we risk losing our rights in the 23 patented mining claims by operation of law.

Grant Hartford Corporation has the initial responsibility to pay the Bureau of Land Management annual assessment fees, which are currently $125 for each 122 unpatented claim for a total annual amount of $15,250 and the property taxes on the 23 patented claims in the annual amount of $1,362. If these fees are not satisfied by GHC, Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. will then make arrangements for payment of such fees. Failing both companies' fee payment, GHC would lose its rights in the claims and the shareholders would be subsequently adversely affected.

16:   In the event we fail to make our scheduled option payments, we will lose all interest that we have in the patented and unpatented mining claims

The 23 patented and 122 unpatented mining claims are owned or optioned by Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. and are under option to us from Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. Under the Grant Hartford Option Agreement, we are required to make annual option payments of $190,000, for the first five (5) year period of the agreement and $400,000 for the final two (2) year period, and annual access lease payments of $60,000 in order to keep our option to purchase the mineral rights to the patented and unpatented mining claims valid. In the event that the option payment and access lease payment are not paid by the deadline, and Commonwealth Resources L.L.C. is unwilling to negotiate an extension, we risk losing all rights in and to the claims.

17:   Compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley may result in our inability to achieve profitability

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 was enacted in response to public concerns regarding corporate accountability in connection with recent accounting scandals. The stated goals of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act are to increase corporate responsibility, to provide for enhanced penalties for accounting and auditing improprieties relating to publicly-traded companies, and to protect investors by improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosures pursuant to the securities laws. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act generally applies to all companies that file or are required to file periodic reports with the SEC, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Upon becoming a public company, we will be required to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and its costs to remain in compliance with the federal securities regulations. Additionally, we may be unable to attract and retain qualified officers, directors and board committee members, which are required pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, in order to provide effective management. The enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has resulted in a series of rules and regulations by the SEC that increase responsibilities and liabilities of directors and executive officers. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these recent changes may make it more costly to attract or may deter qualified individuals from accepting these roles. Significant costs incurred as a result of becoming a public company could divert the use of finances from our operations resulting in the Company's inability to achieve profitability.

11


Risk Factors Relating to Our Common Stock

18:   We may be exposed to potential risks relating to our internal control over financial reporting and our ability to have those controls attested to by our independent registered public accounting firm.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires public companies to include a report of management on the company's internal control over financial reporting in their annual reports, including Form 10-KSB. In addition, the independent registered public accounting firm auditing a company's financial statements must also attest to and report on management's assessment of the effectiveness of the company's internal control over financial reporting as well as the operating effectiveness of the company's internal controls. We are not yet subject to these requirements. We have not yet begun evaluating our internal control systems in order to allow our management to report on, and our independent registered public accounting firm to attest to, our internal controls as a required part of our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB beginning with our report for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008 in relation to our management's report and for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2009 relative to our accounting firm's attestation.

While we expect to expend significant resources over the next few months in developing the necessary documentation and testing procedures required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, there is a risk that we will not be able to comply with all of the requirements imposed by this rule. In the event we identify significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls that we cannot remediate in a timely manner or we are unable to receive an unqualified attestation from our independent registered public accounting firm with respect to our internal controls, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and our stock price and ability to obtain equity or debt financing as needed could suffer.

In addition, in the event that our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to rely on our internal controls in connection with their audit of our financial statements, and in the further event that they are unable to devise alternative procedures in order to satisfy themselves as to the material accuracy of our financial statements and related disclosures, it is possible that we would receive a qualified or an adverse audit opinion on those financial statements which could also adversely affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to secure additional financing as needed.

19:   Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

Our Bylaws provide for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by Montana law for any person whom we may indemnify thereunder; including our directors, officers, employees and agents. As a result, stockholders may be unable to recover damages against directors for actions taken by them in good faith and with the belief that such actions served the best interests of the Corporation, whether or not such actions actually did. Our Bylaws, therefore, may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and other types of stockholder litigation, even though such action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders.

20:   We are subject to "Penny Stock" rules

Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks" are regulated by penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks generally are

12


equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on some national securities exchanges or quoted on NASDAQ). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation to the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer's presumed control over the market, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors" must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. Consequently, these requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security subject to the penny stock rules, and investors in our common stock, may find it difficult to sell their shares.

21:    We are subject to compliance with securities law, which exposes us to potential liabilities, including potential rescission rights.

We have offered and sold our common stock to investors pursuant to certain exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), as well as those of various state securities laws. The basis for relying on such exemptions is factual; that is, the applicability of such exemptions depends upon our conduct and that of those persons contacting prospective investors and making the offering. We have not received a legal opinion to the effect that any of our prior offerings were exempt from registration under any federal or state law. Instead, we have relied upon the operative facts as the basis for such exemptions, including information provided by investors themselves.

If any prior offering did not qualify for such exemption, an investor would have the right to rescind its purchase of the securities if it so desired. It is possible that if an investor should seek rescission, such investor would succeed. A similar situation prevails under state law in those states where the securities may be offered without registration in reliance on the partial preemption from the registration or qualification provisions of such state statutes under the National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996. If investors were successful in seeking rescission, we would face severe financial demands that could adversely affect our business and operations. Additionally, if we did not, in fact, qualify for the exemptions upon which we have relied, we may become subject to significant fines and penalties imposed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and state securities agencies.

22:   We do not expect to distribute cash dividends.

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our shares because we intend to retain our earnings to finance our mining business. We cannot assure you that our operations will result in sufficient revenues to enable us to operate at profitable levels or to generate a positive cash flow. Therefore, investors who anticipate the need for immediate income in the form of dividends should refrain from the purchase of our shares. In the future, our Board of Directors will decide whether to declare any cash dividends based on the conditions then existing, including our earnings and financial condition.

13


23:   There is no public trading market for our common stock and no public market may develop.

Currently, there is no trading market for our common stock, and there can be no assurance that such a market will commence in the future. There can be no assurance that an investor will be able to liquidate his or her investment without considerable delay, if at all. If a trading market does commence, the price may be highly volatile. Factors discussed herein may have a significant impact on the market price of the shares offered. Moreover, our common stock in all likelihood will trade at a price below $5.00 per share and become subject to the "penny stock" rules enacted by the SEC. This would increase the likelihood that many brokerage firms will not participate in a potential future market for our common stock. Those rules require, as a condition to brokers effecting transactions in certain defined securities (unless such transaction is subject to one or more exemptions), that the broker obtain from its customer or client a written representation concerning the customer's financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these procedures tends to discourage most brokerage firms from participating in the market for certain low-priced securities.

24:   A purchaser of our shares runs the risk of losing his entire investment.

Only persons that can bear the economic risk of their investment for an indefinite period of time and can afford the total loss of their investment should consider the purchase of our shares.

25:   Issuance of additional securities.

Our Board of Directors has authority to issue additional shares of common stock or other securities without the consent or vote of our stockholders. The issuance of additional shares, whether in respect of a transaction involving a business opportunity or otherwise, may have the effect of further diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of our stockholders. In the event of such future acquisitions, we could issue equity securities which would dilute current stockholders' percentage ownership, incur substantial debt or assume contingent liabilities. Such actions by the Board of Directors could materially adversely affect our operating results and/or the value of our common stock.

26:   If our shares are quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB), we will be required to remain current in our filings with the SEC and our shares will not be eligible for quotation if we are not current in our filings with the SEC.

In the event that our shares are quoted on the OTCBB, we will be required to remain current in our filings with the SEC in order for our common stock to be eligible for quotation on the OTCBB. In the event that we become delinquent in our required filings with the SEC, quotation of our common stock will be terminated following a 30 or 60 day grace period if we do not make our required filing during that time. If our shares are not eligible for quotation on the OTCBB, investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares.

27:   Voting Control by Commonwealth Resources, LLC.

Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C., owns, collectively, approximately 74.24%, or 16,688,302 shares of our total beneficially owned common stock. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. is comprised of four interest holders, which together own the 16,688,302 shares of our Company's common stock. The interest holders and their beneficially owned shares are as follows: Eric

14


Sauve, 1,832,830 shares, Aaron Charlton, 9,440,566 shares, Kim Charlton-Benson, 1,832,830 shares and Rodney Haynes, 3,582,076 shares. Accordingly, these stockholders, as a group, will be able to control, among other things, the outcome of stockholders votes, including the election of directors, adoption of amendments to our Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation and approval of significant corporate transactions such as mergers.

Mr. Eric Sauve is the President, CEO, CFO and Director of our Company. Mr. Aaron Charlton is our Senior Consultant, who supervises the drilling program, deals with contractors and is the Company's liaison with the BLM, state and local agencies. Any conflicts of interest could delay the implementation of our business plan, which could have a detrimental effect on our business.

NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Prospectus, and the documents incorporated in it by reference, contains forward-looking statements that involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Examples of forward-looking statements include: projections of capital expenditures, competitive pressures, revenues, growth prospects, product development, financial resources and other financial matters. You can identify these and other forward-looking statements by the use of words such as "may," "will," "should," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "intends," "potential" or the negative of such terms, or other comparable terminology.

Our ability to predict the results of our operations or the effects of various events on our operating results is inherently uncertain. Therefore, we caution you to consider carefully the matters described under the caption "Risk Factors" and certain other matters discussed in this Prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference in this Prospectus, and other publicly available sources. These factors and many other factors beyond the control of our management could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock offered by this Prospectus. However, if all of the warrants to purchase the common stock covered by this Prospectus are exercised in full, we would receive gross proceeds of approximately $1,363,440. We would use any such proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes. There can be no assurance that the selling shareholders or their transferees will choose to exercise any of the warrants. We have agreed to bear all expenses relating to the registration of the common stock registered pursuant to the registration statements of which this Prospectus is a part.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

The selling shareholders may sell shares from time to time, initially at a fixed price equal to $0.80 per share. The offering price was determined based upon the price at which we most recently sold our common stock in private transactions. However, we cannot determine what the market value of our common stock will be either now or at the time of sale. There is no relationship between this price and the Company's assets, earnings, book value or any other objective criteria of value. Our common stock is not traded on any national securities exchange and is not quoted on any over-the-counter market. If our shares become quoted on the Over The

15


Counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB"), the selling shareholders may sell all, or a portion, of their shares in the over-the-counter market at prices prevailing at the time of sale, or related to the market price at the time of sale, or at other negotiated prices.

The common stock to be sold by the selling shareholders is common stock that is currently issued and outstanding. The selling shareholders of the issued and outstanding common shares are offering 1,886,893 shares of common stock through this prospectus. All of the shares were acquired from us by the selling shareholders in exempt transactions. The selling shareholders purchased their shares in three exempt offerings that were completed on March 23, 2007, October 31, 2007 and May 31, 2008, respectively.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Currently, there is no public market for our capital stock, and we have not applied to have our common stock listed on any exchange or quoted by any quotation service. We intend to seek out a market maker to apply to have our common stock quoted on the OTCBB upon effectiveness of this Registration Statement. We are presently not required to comply with the disclosure policies of any exchange or quotation service. There are 1,030,195 shares of our common stock currently issuable upon exercise of warrants, of which 830,195 shares are covered by this Registration Statement. In addition, there are 21,450,195 shares of our common stock currently issued and outstanding, of which 1,886,893 shares are covered by this Registration Statement. In addition all of the 21,450,195 shares of outstanding common stock could be sold under Rule 144 beginning 90 days after we file this Registration Statement.

Effective February 15, 2008, Rule 144 was amended to provide, among other things, that, with certain exceptions, persons not affiliated with the issuer holding restricted securities of reporting companies for at least six months may each freely sell (subject only to the Rule 144(c) public information requirement until the securities have been held for one year) and non-affiliates of non-reporting companies may freely resell restricted securities after satisfying a 12-month holding period. The provision permitting free sales after a six month holding period does not apply to securities issued by a shell company or any company which has ever been a shell company before such shares were issued. Such shares can only be sold under Rule 144 at least twelve months after the issuer has (1) ceased to be a shell company, (2) has filed current "Form 10 information" and (3) become a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and made all required periodic filings for one year.

Our shares which were issued to the original shareholders, were issued at a time when we were an operating company and our Company had never been a shell company. Therefore, beginning 90 days after we become a reporting company by filing this Registration Statement, such shareholders may freely sell their shares under Rule 144 as amended, since they have held them for at least six months.

Rules Governing Low-Price Stocks

Our shares of common stock currently are not traded on any stock exchange or quoted on any stock quotation system. Upon the registration statement in which this Prospectus is included, becoming effective, we will seek out a market maker to apply for quotation of our common stock on the OTCBB.

16


Quotations on the OTCBB reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, markdown or commission and may not reflect actual transactions. Our common stock may be subject to certain rules adopted by the SEC that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks." Penny stocks generally are securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that the exchange or system provides current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities. The additional sales practice and disclosure requirements imposed upon broker-dealers may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our shares which could severely limit the market liquidity of the shares and impede the sale of our shares in the secondary market.

The penny stock rules require broker-dealers, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to make a special suitability determination for the purchaser to receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to sale, to deliver standardized risk disclosure documents prepared by the SEC that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock. In addition, the penny stock regulations require the broker-dealer to deliver, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt. A broker-dealer is also required to disclose commissions payable to the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities.

Finally, a broker-dealer is required to send monthly statements disclosing recent price information with respect to the penny stock held in a customer's account and information with respect to the limited market in penny stocks.

Common Stockholders of Record

As of December 31, 2008, we had 61 stockholders of record. However, this number does not include stockholders whose shares are held in trust by other entities and stockholders whose stock was held in nominee or street name by brokers, so the total number of beneficial stockholders of our shares is greater than the number of stockholders of record.

Except as described below, none of the selling shareholders: (1) have had a material relationship with the Company other than as a shareholder at any time within the past two years; or (2) have ever been one of the Company's officers or directors. However, there are two exceptions, in that Brian Blevins was a Director of our Company for a period of two months and David Rodli, Esq. represents Grant Hartford Corporation as General Legal Counsel and currently acts as the Company's Registered Agent. David Rodli represents Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. as General Legal Counsel.

The selling shareholders may sell some or all of their common stock in one or more transactions, including block transactions:

*

On such public markets or exchanges as the common stock may from time to time be trading;

*

In privately negotiated transactions;

*

Through the writing of options on the common stock;

*

In short sales, or;

*

In any combination of these methods of distribution.

The sales price to the public is fixed at $0.80 per share until such time as the shares of our common stock become traded on the OTCBB or another exchange. Although we intend to apply for quotation of our common stock on the OTCBB, public trading of our common stock may never materialize. If our common stock becomes traded on the OTCBB, or another exchange, then the sales price to the public will vary according to the selling decisions of each selling shareholder and the market for the our stock at the time of resale. In these circumstances, the sales price to the public may be:

*

The market price of our common stock prevailing at the time of sale;

*

A price related to such prevailing market price of our common stock, or;

*

Such other price as the selling shareholders determine from time to time.

The shares may also be sold in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission's Rule 144.

The selling shareholders may also sell their shares directly to market makers acting as agents in unsolicited brokerage transactions. Any broker or dealer participating in such transactions as an agent may receive a commission from the selling shareholders or from such purchaser if they act as agent for the purchaser. If applicable, the selling shareholders may distribute shares to one or more of their partners who are unaffiliated with us. Such partners may, in turn, distribute such shares as described above.

We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock. The selling shareholders, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the common stock.

The selling shareholders must comply with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in the offer and sale of the common stock. In particular, during such times as the selling shareholders may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the common stock, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, they must comply with applicable law and may, among other things,:

18


*

Not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our common stock;

*

Furnish each broker or dealer through which common stock may be offered, such copies of this Prospectus, as amended from time to time, as may be required by such broker or dealer; and;

*

Not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended.

We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings.

Our ability to predict the results of our operations or the effects of various events on our operating results is inherently uncertain. Therefore, we caution you to consider carefully the matters described under the caption "Risk Factors" and certain other matters discussed in this Prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference in this Prospectus, and other publicly

available sources. These factors and many other factors beyond the control of our management could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Executive Summary

Our Company is a mineral exploration, development and production company; that is currently in the exploration stage of historically designated mineralized material on the Garnet Mineral Property, located in Missoula, Montana. We have acquired an exclusive option to purchase the mineral rights to 23 patented mineral claims and 122 unpatented mineral claims located within the Garnet Mining District of Granite County, Montana from Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C., is owned by Aaron Charlton, Creative Financial P.S. Plan, Kim Charlton-Benson and Eric Sauve. Mr. Eric Sauve is our president, CEO, CFO, and Director. Mr. Aaron Charlton is our Senior Consultant. Messrs. Charlton and Sauve are two of the Company's five full time employees. Aaron Charlton and Eric Sauve are related parties to our Company, Grant Hartford Corporation. The owner of record of 121 unpatented claims is Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.

We intend to exercise the option and purchase the mineral rights subject to completion of a full feasibility study and our ability to adequately capitalize the Company. We are currently in the process of exploring four of the patented mineral claims and continuing the exploration and evaluation of the remaining patented and unpatented claims.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The preparation of the financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. Though we evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, our actual results may differ from these estimates.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

(a)     Plan of Operation.

Our independent auditor has noted that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern at December 31. 2008. In light of our lack of revenues, and operating capital, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon future events, such as the successful exploration and the future development and production of the mineral property, our ability to engage the services of highly qualified consultants who have expertise in the industry and our ability to secure additional sources of financing. See Risk Factor 3, "Auditor has raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern."

22


Our plan of operation is to conduct exploration activities on the Nancy Hanks Lode Mining Claim, ms#5365, the Dewey and Midnight Lode Mining Claims, ms#9833, the International Lode Mining Claim, ms#3612 and the Tiger Lode Mining Claim, ms#5361 to continue to establish continuity between drill holes of mineralized material found on those claims; to continue exploring the remaining patented and unpatented mining claims in order to designate additional mineralized material; and to proceed with the preparation of a prefeasibility or scoping study. Our 2008 exploration program was designed to quantify, by definition drilling, targets identified by previous exploration programs which were conducted by Pegasus Gold Corporation, Trans-Global Resources, N.L., Garnet Mining Corporation, Western Energy Corporation, American Mining Corporation and Anaconda Corporation. Our geological data base contains geological, geochemical, and geophysical reports, maps, and drill logs prepared from work performed by the previously referenced companies. We currently hold a Small Miners Exclusion Statement (#46-032) issued by the State of Montana which allows us to mine an unlimited amount within a 5 acre area of surface disturbance. We also hold an Exploration License (#00545), which has been issued by the State of Montana.

In 2008 we completed a 54 hole reverse circulation drilling program. We have analyzed the data from the 2008 drilling program during the first quarter of 2009, and we determined our 2009 drilling program. We began implementing our 2009 drilling program on May 19, 2009 and we expect to continue drilling into the fourth quarter of 2009, subject to adequate financing. We began mill engineering in May 2009 and expect to continue engineering work, subject to adequate financing, into the fourth quarter of 2009. We expect to begin mine engineering work, subject to adequate financing, into the fourth quarter of 2009. We expect to begin mine engineering, mill engineering in the third quarter of 2009. Pending the outcome of mine engineering, mill engineering and feasibility studies, we expect to begin mining operations and to begin construction of an onsite mill for processing in the fourth quarter of 2009 subject to further financing.

The Company incurred expenses of $971,066 for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008. The monthly average expenditure for both capital and expense items in 2008 was $80,922.17.

(b)     Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition.

Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2008. (Note: Fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 comparisons cover a period of approximately nine months)

Revenues

As of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, we did not generate any revenues as compared to generating no revenues for the nine month period ended December 31, 2007. For the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009, management plans to satisfy our cash requirements and working capital needs through private placements of debt or equity offerings, in order to proceed with the necessary exploration of the Property.

Operating Loss

As of the twelve month period ended December 31, 2008, we incurred a net loss of ($971,066), as compared to a net loss of ($247,857) for the period of inception through December 31, 2007, representing an approximate 292% increase in net losses. This net operating loss was primarily due to an increase in expenses and fees, resulting in financial conference fees of $14,500, management fees of $269,500, which include Aaron Charlton's and Eric Sauve's salaries increasing from $5,000 per month to $15,000 per month on June 30, 2008, general and administrative costs of $134,490, professional fees of $96,748, geological and property expenses of $385,106, interest expenses of $9,467 and surface access lease payments of $61,225. We anticipate our operating expenses will increase in 2009 to $868,000. The increase will be attributable to fulfilling the terms of employment agreements with the Company's President Eric Sauve, the Company's Senior Consultant Aaron Charlton in which their salaries increase from $5,000 to $15,000 on June 30, 2008 and both parties receive a six percent (6%) raise on June 30, 2009, and the additional contracts for the Company's Vice President of Corporate Finance, B.J.

Operating Loss

As of the second quarter ended June 30, 2009, we incurred a net loss of ($647,104), as compared to a net loss of ($114,102) for the second quarter ended June 30, 2008, representing an approximate 567% increase in net losses.

Second Quarter ended June 30, 2009.

Revenues

As of the second quarter ended June 30, 2009, the Company did not generate any revenues as compared to generating no revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

Operating Loss

As at the three month period ended June 30, 2009, we incurred a net loss of ($647,104). This net operating loss was a result of interest expense of $25,948, management fees of $155,800, general and administrative costs of $145,351, professional fees of $100,586, geological and property expenses of $199,960 and surface access lease payments of $19,459. We anticipate our operating expenses will increase in the three month period ended September 30, 2009 to $845,000. As at the six month period ended June 30, 2009, we incurred a net loss of ($842,210). This net operating loss was a result of interest expense of $34,726, management fees of $250,800, general and administrative costs of $180,896, professional fees of $119,390, geological and property expenses of $222,145 and surface access lease payments of $34,253. We anticipate our operating expenses will increase in the nine months period ended September 30, 2009 to approximately $1,687,210. The increase will be attributable to drilling and other geological work on the property as it relates to our 2009 Exploration Program, which we anticipate extending throughout the entire third quarter of 2009, along with mill engineering, mine engineering and a pre-feasibility study. The increase will also be attributable to fulfilling the terms of employment agreements with the Company's President Eric Sauve, the Company's Senior Consultant Aaron Charlton in which their salaries increased from $5,000 to $15,000 per month on June 30, 2008 and both parties are to receive a six percent (6%) raise on June 30, 2009, and the additional contracts for the Company's Vice President of Corporate Finance, B.J. Ambrose, the Company's Vice President of Marketing, Tim Mathews, and the professional fees that we will incur in connection with the filing of this Registration Statement with the Securities Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We anticipate our ongoing operating expenses will also increase in comporting with the reporting requirements pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Income Taxes

As at the second quarter ended June 30, 2009, we paid income taxes of $0.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements" ("SAB 108"), which provides interpretive guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 is effective for us in the 2008 fiscal year. The adoption of SAB 108 had no effect on our financial statements.

29


In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS 157"). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 will be applied prospectively and will be effective for periods beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS 157 had no material effect on our financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" ("FIN 48"), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Specifically, FIN 48 requires the recognition in financial statements of the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on the de-recognition of previously recognized deferred tax items, classification, accounting for interest and penalties, and accounting in interim periods related to uncertain tax positions, as well as, requires expanded disclosures. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. There was no impact on our financial statements as a result on implementing FIN 48.

In June 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") of the FASB ratified EITF Issue 06-3, "How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement. (That is, Gross Versus Net Presentation)." A consensus was reached that entities may adopt a policy of presenting taxes in the income statement on either a gross or net basis. An entity should disclose its policy of presenting taxes and the amount of any taxes presented on a gross basis should be disclosed, if significant. The guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2006. We present revenues net of taxes. EITF 06-3 will not impact the method for recording these sales taxes in our financial statements. In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities". SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value (the "fair value option"). A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items by which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." The adoption of SFAS No. 159 had no material effect on our financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations- Revised, that improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. To accomplish that, this statement establishes principles and requirements how the acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase, and determines what

30


information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The changes to current practice resulting from the application of SFAS No. 141(R) are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) before December 15, 2008 is prohibited. The adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) had no material effect on our financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of ARB No. 51." The objective of this Statement is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards that require the following changes. The ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent be clearly identified, labeled, and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parent's equity. The amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest to be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income. When a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained non-controlling equity investment in the former subsidiary is initially measured at fair value. The gain or loss on the deconsolidation of the subsidiary is measured using the fair value of any non-controlling equity investment rather than the carrying amount of that retained investment and entities provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. The changes to current practices resulting from the application of SFAS No. 160 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning alter December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of SFAS No. 160 before December 15, 2008 is prohibited. The adoption of SFAS No. 160 had no material effect on our financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. SFAS No. 161 gives financial statement users better information about the reporting entity's hedges by providing for qualitative disclosures about the objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative data about the fair value of and gains and losses on derivative contracts, and details of credit-risk-related contingent features in their hedged positions. The standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged, but not required. The adoption of SFAS No. 161 had no material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 163, "Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60" ("SFAS 163"). SFAS 163 interprets Statement 60 and amends existing accounting pronouncements to clarify their application to the financial guarantee insurance contracts included within the scope of that Statement. SFAS 163 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years. As such, the Company is required to adopt these provisions at the beginning of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 163 on its financial statements [but does not expect it to have a material effect].

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 166 "Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140"

31


("SFAS 166"). SFAS 166 improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor's continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. SFAS 166 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. As such, the Company is required to adopt this standard in January 2010. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 166 will have on its financial statements.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 167 "Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)" ("SFAS 167"). SFAS 167 improves financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to address (1) the effects on certain provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities", as a result of the elimination of the qualifying special-purpose entity concept in SFAS 166 and (2) constituent concerns about the application of certain key provisions of Interpretation 46(R), including those in which the accounting and disclosures under the Interpretation do not always provide timely and useful information about an enterprise's involvement in a variable interest entity. SFAS 167 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. As such, the Company is required to adopt this standard in January 2010. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 167 will have on its financial statements.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 168, "The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles". SFAS 168 replaces SFAS 162 and establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. SFAS 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 168 on its financial statements but does not expect it to have a material effect.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

General

We incorporated on March 15, 2007, under the laws of the State of Montana. On June 15, 2007, we acquired an option to purchase a 100% interest in the mineral rights (excluding surface rights) to 23 patented mining claims and to purchase 122 unpatented mining claims from Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. The property is located in the Garnet Mining District in Granite County in the State of Montana.

32


Commonwealth Resources L.L.C. supplied the Company with historical data on the claims area dating back to 1865 and data from exploration programs conducted in the late 1980's and early 1990's. Drill logs and reports containing drilling results from the drilling program conducted by Pegasus Mining Corporation between 1990 and 1992 indicated the existence of low grade mineralized material that was drilled sufficiently to establish continuity between drill holes. Pegasus also encountered a number of high grade mineralized material intercepts. The various grades and widths of high grade mineralized material veins found by Pegasus lend themselves to further exploration by the Company that could result in the determination of the existence of underground proven/ probable gold reserves.

The Company's plan of operation for 2009 is to conduct exploration activities in the area Pegasus Gold Corporation explored and drilled sufficiently to begin establishing continuity between drill holes in order to continue establishing drill hole continuity and to proceed with pre-feasibility or scoping studies in order to determine the existence of proven/ probable reserves. The Company has retained the engineering firm CDM of Helena, MT to assist in proceeding with and completing the pre-feasibility or scoping studies.

Acquisition of the patented and unpatented mineral claims.

We have acquired an exclusive option to purchase the mineral interests to 23 patented mineral claims and 122 unpatented mineral claims located within the Garnet Mining District of Granite County, Montana from Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C., is owned by Aaron Charlton, Creative Financial P.S. Plan, Kim Charlton-Benson and Eric Sauve. Aaron Charlton and Eric Sauve are related parties to our Company, Grant Hartford Corporation. The owner of record of 121 unpatented claims is Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. One unpatented claim, NHC 0112, was not filed with the Bureau of Land Management to meet time requirements and has been restaked by WGM Survey Co., and is in the process of being filed and properly recorded with the Bureau of Land Management and the Granite County Clerk and Recorder. Commonwealth Resources, LLC holds these 122 unpatented and 23 patented claims

pursuant to the terms of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement for our Company. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. retained the services of WGM Survey Co. of Missoula, Montana to physically stake and record ownership in these 122 unpatented mineral claims with Granite County, Montana and the Bureau of Land Management. The owner of record on 22 of the 23 patented mineral claims is Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. The owner of record of one (1) patented claim, the Free Coin, is River Terrace Estates, Inc.. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. entered into a Mining Lease between River Terrace Estates, Inc. and Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. which provides for a lease and option to purchase the Free Coin patented mining claim. This Mining Lease has been partially assigned to Grant Hartford Corporation both by the terms of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement between Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. and the Company and through a Partial Assignment of Amended Mining Lease, which assigned to GHC the leasehold interest in the Amended Mining lease and the right to acquire it, upon exercise of the purchase option defined in the Lease and Amended Lease, the mineral rights in and to the mining claim. The material terms of the Free Coin patented mining claim transaction are further set forth in the "Material Terms of Related Party Agreements" section of this Prospectus on page 34.

The 122 unpatented mineral claims are administered by the United States Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") under the provisions provided for by the 1872 Mining Law. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.'s interest in these 122 unpatented mineral claims will continue into perpetuity provided that Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. pays a $125

33


maintenance fee each year on each mineral claim in compliance with the Bureau of Land Management regulations pertaining to unpatented mining claims. The required amount of expenditure for Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. to hold these 122 claims is $15,250 per year. The maintenance figure is set by the BLM and can be altered only in its sole discretion.

The 23 patented mining claims are fee simple properties. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.'s interest in these 22 patented mineral claims will continue in perpetuity, provided that Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. pays the assessed property taxes for each respective mining claim to Granite County, Montana. The current required tax expenditure for Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. to hold these 22 patented claims is $1,362 per year. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.'s interest in the Free Coin patented mineral claim will continue for a period of seven (7) year beginning on March 29, 2007, provided that Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. complies with the material terms of the Amended Mining Lease, which are set forth in the "Material Terms of Related Party Agreements" section of this Prospectus on page 34.

Four of the patented mineral claims owned by Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. have a mortgage lien that is non-interest-bearing, in the amount of $300,000 payable to Intrepid Technologies Inc. of Idaho Falls, ID. Those four claims are the Nancy Hanks, (ms#5365), Dewey-Midnight, (ms#9833), Tiger, (ms#5361), and Placer Claim 751, (ms#751).

Three of the patented mining claims owned by Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. have a trust indenture, interest bearing at 12% per annum, in the amount of $85,074 payable to Herbert B. Hanich, DVW, Profit Sharing Plan. Those three claims are the Fourth of July (ms#5453), North Star (ms#9404), and the Harold (ms#5812).

We entered into the Grant Hartford Option Agreement, which conveys an exclusive option to purchase the mineral rights to the 23 patented mining claims and an exclusive option to purchase the 122 unpatented mining claims from Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. Pursuant to this contract, we have the right to explore for minerals, develop potential mining targets, and enter into limited gold production. The terms of this Grant Hartford Option Agreement requires the issuance by us of 19,000,000 shares of our common stock, annual Option payments by us of $190,000 during the first five (5) year period and $400,000 during the final two (2) year period of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement, and an annual access lease payment of $60,000 for the entire period of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement. The agreement was executed on June 15, 2007 for a term of seven (7) years. We may exercise our option to purchase the mineral deeds to the patented claims and the unpatented claims at any time for a cash payment to Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. of $7,000,000. The material terms of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement are further set forth in the "Material Terms of Related Party Agreements" section of this Prospectus on page 34.

Material Terms of Related Party Agreements

The Grant Hartford Option Agreement

Mr. Eric Sauve, as President, CEO, CFO and Director of Grant Hartford Corporation ("GHC") negotiated the terms of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement ("Option Agreement") with Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. in March, 2007. Mr. Aaron Charlton, the Managing Member of Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C., negotiated on behalf of Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. The parties determined the material terms of the Option Agreement during a 25 day contemplative period, beginning on February 25, 2007 and ending on March 22, 2007, and by

34


relying upon several factors, including but not limited to, the presence of extensive historical data on the mineral property, such as the "Garnet Project Summary" by Eric Stimson, of Pegasus Gold Corporation and the "Mineral Property Valuation" by John C. Brower, PhD, and a previous option agreement to the mining property and claims with Pegasus Gold Corp. On March 22, 2007, GHC and Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. entered into a Letter of Intent and on June 15, 2007, GHC and Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. finalized the Option Agreement, whereby GHC would acquire an option to purchase the mineral rights to 122 unpatented and 23 patented mining claims from Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.. The material terms whereby GHC obtained the option to purchase the Garnet Mining District mineral deeds from GHC are as follows: GHC is allowed a seven (7) year period whereby Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. will hold the mineral rights to the property exclusively for the benefit of GHC. In order to retain the exclusive option to purchase the mineral rights for this seven (7) year period , GHC is responsible for the Bureau of Land Management assessment fees, which currently total $125.00 for each of the 122 unpatented mining claim, for a total annual payment of $15,250.00, the property taxes on each of the 23 patented mining claims, for a total annual payment of $1,362, an annual surface access lease payment of $60,000, an annual option payment of $190,000, which increases to $400,000 in year six (6) and seven (7) of the Option Agreement, the issuance of 19,000,000 shares of GHC's no par value common stock, pursuant to the Amendment to Grant Hartford Option Agreement dated January 24, 2008, and the payment of a 5% net smelter return on any ore processed during the option period within fifteen (15) days of the close of each calendar month. GHC has paid a total of $33,224 on behalf of Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. in Bureau of Land Management Assessment Fees and property taxes through March 31, 2009. GHC paid Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. a total of $214,819 in annual option payments and annual surface access lease payments through June 30, 2009. GHC has also issued 19,000,000 shares of the Company's no par value common stock to Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. at $0.125 per share for a total consideration valued at $2,375,000. At the time the 19,000,000 shares of the Company's no par value common stock were issued, the shares represented 89.6% of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock.

A breach of the Option Agreement occurs when any obligation under the Option Agreement or the Lease is not performed. Ten (10) days from the date of the defaulting incident, Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. may deliver the notice of default to GHC. GHC then has twenty (20) days from the date of service to cure the default before the Option Agreement is terminated. Upon termination GHC shall: ensure sufficient assessment work has been filed to hold unpatented claims through the assessment year commencing September 1 of that calendar year; GHC has 60 days to deliver: existing drill core samples, pulps, and copies of formal reports, and GHC must represent and warrant the accuracy and completeness of this data; GHC has 180 days to remove any of GHC's property that was placed on the site by GHC, excluding that property that must be left pursuant to the Option Agreement or Lease; and GHC has 180 days to replace any structures moved from the property.

Notice of Option to Purchase Mineral Interests

On September 25, 2008, a Notice of Option to Purchase Mineral Interests was filed with the Granite Clerk and Recorder, whereby Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. conferred upon GHC the right to purchase the mineral rights pertaining to the subject mining claims at any time prior to June 15, 2014, provided GHC performs all obligations as required pursuant to the material terms of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement ("Option Agreement"). The material terms as stated in the Option Agreement are as follows: The option may be exercised at any time prior to 11:59pm, June 14, 2014. GHC may enter and shall have immediate possession of the property

35


containing the optioned mineral rights, excluding historical structures. GHC may use the property to: carry out its operations; install buildings, plants, machinery, equipment, tools, appliances and supplies; and remove up to 100 tons per day of rock, ores, minerals and metals, whereby 5% of the net smelter return on any ore processed will be paid to Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. within fifteen (15) days of the close of each calendar month. In the event Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.'s title is deficient, GHC may remedy the deficiency and deduct the costs and related expenses of said deficiency from the final purchase price of the Garnet Mining District mineral deeds. In order to avoid default, GHC shall complete the following material terms: Pay an annual option payment of $190,000 to Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. on June 15 of each calendar year until June 15, 2011, whereby the option payment increases to $400,000 for the final two year period. GHC is required to issue 19,000,000 shares of GHC's no par value common stock, pursuant to an Amendment to Grant Hartford Option Agreement dated January 24, 2008; fully and timely pay all real estate taxes and assessments on the patented claims; create and provide to Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C., a work program, which may be abandoned if it is not warranted, based on the results of previous work. GHC will hold Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. harmless from rehabilitation or reclamation of the property. At the time of completion of operations, GHC must return structures to their original site, or another agreed upon site on the property. GHC must provide work program results to Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. GHC must secure and maintain adequate insurance on the property and for the workers. Additional mineral claims may be purchase by GHC within the area of interest for the mutual benefit of both parties. GHC must fully perform the material terms of the Mineral Lease, which is entitled Non-Exclusive Surface Lease Agreement ("Lease"), which was entered into by the parties on June 15, 2007. The material terms of the Lease are as follows: The Lease runs co-extensively with the Option Agreement and expires at GHC's acquisition of the mineral rights. At that time the parties shall enter into a new lease of the property, under mutually agreeable terms and for rent of not less than the current Lease. GHC may use any structure on the property as listed in Schedule B of the Lease. Any structure constructed, remodeled, or renovated on the property is to run with the land and is to remain there for the benefit of Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. GHC is required to maintain fire and extended coverage on all structures in use on the property and must maintain the exteriors and interiors of those structures. An annual rent payment of $60,000 per year is required, which, upon thirty (30) day notice, may convert to monthly or quarterly payments upon mutual agreement between the parties. In addition, GHC must pay all the taxes and assessments on the patented claims and pay all assessments and conduct all work required to keep unpatented mining claims in good standing with the US Department of Interior, Bureau of Land Management and State of Montana, or any political subdivision thereof. GHC shall hold Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. harmless from liability damages or claims of damages and GHC must carry suitable liability insurance.

A breach of the Lease includes the following: If GHC fails to pay all taxes and assessments, or conduct all work on the subject claims; uses the property in a way not set forth in the Lease; fails to pay the rent payment; commits or suffers any waste that is committed in or upon the property; makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; makes an insolvent assignment; or files a voluntary petition for bankruptcy. In the event GHC fails to pay all taxes and assessments and perform all work on the subject claims; Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. shall have the right, without notice, to make payments or perform the work required. This default may be cured by GHC if the Company reimburses Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. for the full costs for completing the requirements in a timely manner. Otherwise termination of the agreement requires written notice of default to be delivered to GHC no sooner than 10 days from the defaulting event. GHC then has thirty (30) days from delivery of the

36


default notice to cure the default in its entirety. If said cure is not completed within the thirty (30) day time period, Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. may reenter the property, take possession and cancel the Lease, whereby GHC forfeits all rents paid and is responsible for any damages suffered by Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. as a result of the default.

A breach of the Option Agreement occurs when any obligation under the Option Agreement or the Lease is not performed. Ten (10) days from the date of the defaulting incident, Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. may deliver the notice of default to GHC. GHC then has twenty (20) days from the date of service to cure the default before the Option Agreement is terminated. Upon termination GHC shall: ensure sufficient assessment work has been filed to hold unpatented claims through the assessment year commencing September 1 of that calendar year; GHC has 60 days to deliver: existing drill core samples, pulps, and copies of formal reports, and GHC must represent and warrant the accuracy and completeness of this data; GHC has 180 days to remove any of GHC's property that was placed on the site by GHC, excluding that property that must be left pursuant to the Option Agreement or Lease; and GHC has 180 days to replace any structures moved from the property.

Non-Exclusive Surface Lease Agreement

GHC must fully perform the material terms of the Mineral Lease, which is entitled Non-Exclusive Surface Lease Agreement ("Lease"), which was entered into by the parties on June 15, 2007. The material terms of the Lease are as follows: The Lease runs co-extensively with the Option Agreement and expires at GHC's acquisition of the mineral rights. At that time the parties shall enter into a new lease of the property, under mutually agreeable terms and for rent of not less than the current Lease. GHC may use any structure on the property as listed in Schedule B of the Lease. Any structure constructed, remodeled, or renovated on the property is to run with the land and is to remain there for the benefit of Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. GHC is required to maintain fire and extended coverage on all structures in use on the property and must maintain the exteriors and interiors of those structures. An annual rent payment of $60,000 per year is required, which, upon thirty (30) day notice, may convert to monthly or quarterly payments upon mutual agreement between the parties. In addition, GHC must pay all the taxes and assessments on the patented claims and pay all assessments and conduct all work required to keep unpatented mining claims in good standing with the US Department of Interior, Bureau of Land Management and State of Montana, or any political subdivision thereof. GHC shall hold Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. harmless from liability damages or claims of damages and GHC must carry suitable liability insurance.

A breach of the Lease includes the following: If GHC fails to pay all taxes and assessments, or conduct all work on the subject claims; uses the property in a way not set forth in the Lease; fails to pay the rent payment; commits or suffers any waste that is committed in or upon the property; makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; makes an insolvent assignment; or files a voluntary petition for bankruptcy. In the event GHC fails to pay all taxes and assessments and perform all work on the subject claims; Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. shall have the right, without notice, to make payments or perform the work required. This default may be cured by GHC if the Company reimburses Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. for the full costs for completing the requirements in a timely manner. Otherwise termination of the agreement requires written notice of default to be delivered to GHC no sooner than 10 days from the defaulting event. GHC then has thirty (30) days from delivery of the default notice to cure the default in its entirety. If said cure is not completed within the thirty (30) day time period, Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. may reenter the property, take possession and cancel the

37


Lease, whereby GHC forfeits all rents paid and is responsible for any damages suffered by Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. as a result of the default.

Amended Mining Lease / Partial Assignment of Amended Mining Lease and Acknowledgment

The owner of record of one (1) patented claim, the Free Coin, is River Terrace Estates, Inc. An Amended Mining Lease between River Terrace Estates, Inc. and Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. provides for a lease and option to purchase the Free Coin patented mining claim. This Mining Lease has been partially assigned to Grant Hartford Corporation both by the terms of the Grant Hartford Option Agreement between Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. and the Company and through a Partial Assignment of Amended Mining Lease, which assigned to GHC the leasehold interest in the Amended Mining lease and the right to acquire, upon exercise of the purchase option defined in the Lease and Amended Lease, the mineral rights in and to the mining claim. The terms and nature of this Mining Lease, amended on or about February 20, 2009, are as follows: River Terrace Estates, Inc. leases Free Coin Quartz Lode, Mineral Survey No. 4652, Patent No. 28062 containing 13.86 acres, more or less, to Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. for a period of seven years from March 29, 2007, subject to Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.'s option to purchase. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. shall have the exclusive right to enter upon and have possession of the mining claims for the purpose of testing, exploring, developing, and operating the mining claims as unpatented mining claims and extracting from and selling, with the exception of the portion attributable to River Terrace Estates, Inc., any minerals found thereon and therein, specifically including, but not limited to, gold, silver, copper, gemstones and other minerals or gems. The places where any testing, exploring, developing and operating of the claim shall be done, and the extent thereof, shall be left entirely to the discretion of Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C., provided however, that Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. shall perform all work on said premises in a good and miner-like manner so as to preserve the premises as a workable lode mining claim. The following are the material terms of the option to purchase the subject mining claim: Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. shall pay an annual rent payment of $500; Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. shall pay a 3% net smelter return on all

minerals extracted from the claim during the seven years immediately succeeding the date of the Amended Mining Lease; Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. shall pay any real property, or any other taxes assessed or levied against mining claims, Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C.'s property, or structures on the mining claim; Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. shall pay all costs for the operation of said premises; Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. will not allow a lien of any kind to be imposed or enforced against the premises; and Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. will maintain appropriate insurance policies, including general liability and auto-related liability. A default on the option to purchase the subject mining claims consists of a violation of any provision of the Mining Lease, culminating in River Terrace Estates, Inc. delivering a written notice of violation and 120 day notice of termination of Mining Lease to Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. has 120 days from receipt of said notice to cure the default; otherwise River Terrace Estates, Inc. may take possession of the premises. The following are the material terms of the purchase agreement of the subject mining claim: Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. shall give its notice of intention to purchase the mineral claim within seven (7) years from March 29, 2007. The purchase price for the subject mining claim shall be $60,000, plus 12% bonus per annum, computed from the date of the Mining Lease to the date of the final closing payment, not to be more than ninety (90) days after the notice to exercise the option is given to River Terrace Estates, Inc.

In order to provide a brief overview and description of the rock formations and mineralization, present on the Garnet Mineral Property, and of which Grant Hartford Corporation is currently exploring, the following excerpts from the "Garnet Project Summary, December 1992," as prepared by Pegasus Gold Corporation ("Garnet Project Summary") are included below. For more information and to view the entire "Garnet Project Summary, December 1992," as prepared by Pegasus Gold Corporation, please refer to our website, www.granthartford.com.

 

"Near the Garnet mining district, the northwest-plunging Deep Creek anticline is intruded on its northern flank by granodiorite of the Garnet Range stock. The formations in contact with the granodiorite include silty quartzites of the upper Proterozoic Garnet Range Quartzite (Missoula Group), vitreous Cambrian Flathead Quartzite, shales and silty carbonates of the Cambrian Wolsey Shale, dolomites and gray limestone of the Cambrian Meagher Limestone, poorly exposed Cambrian Park Shale, light colored dolomite and limestone of the Cambrian Pilgrim Formation, thin-bedded limestones and calcareous shales of the Cambrian Red Lion and Devonian Maywood Formations (mapped as a single unit), and black, carbonaceous limestones and dolomites of the Devonian Jefferson Formation."

"Within a thousand feet of the granodiorite, contact metamorphism is well developed in the sedimentary rocks. Limestones are recrystallized to

 

coarsely crystalline marbles, carbonaceous limestones and dolomites are bleached white with some recrystallized graphite observed, impure carbonates and silty shales are commonly converted to anhydrous skarn assemblages (principally garnet-epidote-diopside), and silty quartzites contain prominent clots of biotite-andalusite-cordierite, creating the distinctive spotted hornfels that district miners called "birdseye porphyry"."

 

 

 

"Most of the intrusive contacts mapped in the district are north-dipping and conformable to bedding. North-dipping sills are abundant within a thousand feet of the plutonic contact. However, the stock itself is probably not conformable. Regional aeromagnetic maps indicate that a thin shelf of sedimentary rock extends for more than a mile away from the contact. Granitic rocks are probably present at shallow depths beneath the sedimentary rocks before dropping off abruptly at the edge of the stock. The many sills in this shelf of sedimentary rock probably contributed to the widespread contact metamorphism observed in the district."

 

 

 

Mineralized material-bearing "quartz vein zones dip from 30 to 50 degrees northward in the Garnet district, and from 30 to 45 degrees southward at Coloma. These veins were responsible for an estimated 150,000 ounces of gold production from the Garnet and Coloma mines, as well as for much of the estimated 500,000 ounces of placer gold from nearby creeks" which were obtained during the pre-1942 historical mining period of the region.

Four major vein systems are present in the Garnet District. All four strike generally east-west, and dip at shallow to moderate angles toward the north. The most northerly of these is the Nancy Hanks system which includes the International, Shamrock, Dewey, and Nancy Hanks veins. These veins occur within the granodiorite, or along the contact with marbles and shales of the Jefferson, Red Lion, and Maywood Formations. The vein systems are anastomosing networks of north-dipping veins and veinlets, with abundant subhorizontal ladder veinlets cutting the granodiorite between the main veins. The veins and veinlets are predominantly milky white or clear quartz with minor calcite and/or ankerite. Up to 2% pyrite can be found in the veins, but trace amounts are more typical. Away from the major veins, the granodiorite is strongly propylitized for a few inches up to several feet with minor amounts of disseminated pyrite. Trace amounts of quartz veinlets are sometimes responsible for" mineralized material drill intercepts.

Garnet Mining History

The following is a brief history of previous operations, including, insofar as known, the names and dates of previous operators: Between 1896 and 1942, geological reports indicate that the Nancy Hanks, Lead King, Dewey, International and Tiger mines were active on the Garnet property. The year of 1942 marked the beginning of World War II, causing mining to cease until the 1960's when Anaconda Corporation began its exploration programs on portions of the Garnet

46


Property. From 1966 to 1971, American Mining Corporation owned and conducted its own exploration on the Garnet Property. Western Energy Corporation, a mining explorationsubsidiary of the Montana based power utility, Montana Power Company, conducted exploration of the Garnet Property from 1987 to 1989. Pegasus Gold Corp. ("Pegasus"), which was a mid size gold producing Company in the 1980's and mid 1990's, optioned the Garnet Property between 1989 and 1993. Trans-Global Resources, N.L., which was an exploration company listed on the ASX and NASDAQ had a 56% interest of the Garnet Property from 1991 to 1993.

In Pegasus' exploration of the Garnet Property they identified mineralized material in two of Grant Hartford Corporation's mining claims that are under option through Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. Subsequently, the Company used these previous exploration results from the Nancy Hanks and Dewey patented claims, as a basis for our current exploration plans. Several of the following excerpts and summarizations from the "Garnet Project Summary, December 1992," prepared by Pegasus Gold Corporation ("1992 Report") and the "Mineral Property Valuation, Garnet and Copper Cliff Mining Districts," prepared by John C. Brower, Ph.D. (1999 Report) are provided and outline the Pegasus operations on the Garnet Property. For more information and the view the entire 1992 or 1999 Reports, please refer to our website, www.granthartford.com.

 

"Between December, 1989, and December 1992, Pegasus Gold conducted an exploration program covering over 22 square miles and employing airborne magnetics and resistivity, ground, magnetics, IP, and resistivity surveys. Drill targets were defined using geologic mapping, [and] rock, soil and trench geochemistry. Fourteen targets were drill tested with 147 reverse circulation holes (47,601 feet), and six core holes (1,710 feet)." This exploration program designated mineralized material located in "the Nancy Hanks deposit using 16 north-south cross sections," and reported "tonnages for 129 polygonal blocks on these cross sections as defined by intercepts in 43 reverse circulation drill holes, nine trenches, and three core holes." These calculations resulted in designated mineralized material of 3.2 million tons, with an average grade of 0.04 ounces AU per ton." For more information and to view the entire 1992 Report, please refer to our website, www.granthartford.com.

 

 

 

The 1999 Report further discusses the Pegasus exploration plan and states that the "...Dewey/Nancy Hanks and Cascade zones were constructed by Pegasus, showing drill holes and intercepts of" mineralized material and other geology. Pegasus completed their calculations "manually by drawing polygons on the cross sections, and with polygon cross sectional areas determined by use of planimeters. Polygons were then extended halfway to the adjacent cross section to determine volume and tonnage." Pegasus created Ninety-three blocks on ten cross sections.

 

 

 

"The approach employed by Pegasus is suitable as a first approximation, early indication type of estimate, to determine whether enough gross grade and tonnage is present to merit further work, but is far too generalized for feasibility decisions. More

47


 

sophisticated analytical techniques using computer models (bellow) can reveal ore grades and gross tonnages that differ significantly from first approximations. They can be substantially higher or lower, due to more selective designation of what is ore and what is waste, which can subsequently expand or contract mineable zones." The 1999 Report goes on to suggest that John C. Brower used "the drill hole data from Pegasus in computer mine modeling, namely the commonly used proprietary programs SURPAC and THREE-D. SURPAC to generate a mine block model, in this case with user defined mine blocks 100 feet square and 50 feet high. Modeling utilized 62 drill holes in the Dewey/Nancy Hanks area and 17 in the Magone & Anderson, with an average spacing of 250 feet apart." The 1999 Report's "prefeasibility model was based on a 6-year mine life, followed by two years of reclamation," and prescribed the removal of 6,972,000 short tons of designated mineralized material which had an average grade of "0.086 troy ounces per short ton." For more information and the view the entire 1999 Report, please refer to our website, www.granthartford.com.

These results from the Pegasus Exploration Plan, which were further interpreted by the 1999 Report, are the basis for Grant Hartford Corporation's initial exploration plans and give rise to our plans for expanding exploration on the property and proceeding with a pre-feasibility or scoping study in order to determine the existence of proven/ probable reserves on the Garnet Mineral Property.

Current Operations

The Company's 2008 exploration program was designed to quantify, through the use of definition drilling, both open pit and underground mine mineralized material targets identified by the previous Pegasus exploration program. The Company intends to use this information to proceed with prefeasibility or scoping studies in order to determine an updated existence of possible proven/ probable reserves.

During 2008, GHC completed 54 drill holes, with total drill footage of 12,497.5 feet. These holes were completed by O'Keefe Drilling using reverse circulation drill rigs. All holes were completed during the third and fourth quarters of 2008. Original drill plans included drilling on over eight (8) targets. Due to the promising results obtained in the first three zones drilled, drilling was concentrated on these three mineralized material zones. The drilling plan called for definition drilling near high-grade mineralized material zones encountered by Pegasus between 1989 and 1992. The drilling resulted in 1,879 samples generally representing five (5) foot intervals were sent for assay. Shorter intervals were sampled when vein systems were able to be identified. 229 samples were run in duplicates of 2-4 repeats. This represents a 12.2% assay duplication.

The Company's 2008 exploration program discovered and expanded mineralized material zones indentified by Pegasus in the East Dewey and North Dewey zones. Drilling on the Nancy Hanks deposit confirmed mineralized material tonnage and grade, as identified by Pegasus, with open

48


boundaries in several directions. A new mineralized material zone at the 200 foot level in the area of the Nancy Hanks pit was discovered which is open in three directions. Through the Company's current input of the Company's 2008 drill data and the Pegasus drill data into a sub-surface mine modeling programs the Company hopes to assist in proceeding with a pre-feasibility or scoping study to determine the updated existence of proven/ probable reserves.

The Company's 2009 Exploration Plan is based on recommendations from its 2008 Drilling report written by Vice President of Mining and Geology J. Robert Flesher:

 

1.

Enter all existing geological, geophysical and geochemical data, including the Pegasus drilling data, and the Company's 2008 drilling data, into a sub-surface 3D mine modeling program to determine an updated mineralized material calculation,

 

2.

Engage a metallurgical lab to analyze samples from the 2008 exploration program to determine the correct grind size, and conduct specific gravity concentration and flotation tests, in order to determine a flow sheet,

 

3.

Based on the data from the flow sheet, engage an engineering firm to design and provide bids for the construction of a milling facility to process high grade mineralized material,

 

4.

Engage a Geophysical firm to conduct Induced Polarization tests on the North Dewy target to identify additional anomalous areas for drilling during the 2009 season.

 

5.

Engage an underground mining engineer to provide cost estimates for underground mineralized material extraction on future indentified deposits,

 

6.

Drill up to 150 reverse circulation holes on targets identified in the area of the Nancy Hanks and Dewey to block out mineralized material for possible extraction, and to complete definition drilling to improve the Nancy Hanks' open pit mineralized material calculation in order to determine the possible existence of proven/probable reserves,

 

7.

Upon completion of the 2009 exploration program engage an engineering firm to proceed with a pre-feasibility or scoping study in order to determine the existence of proven/probable reserves and the possible utilization of open pit mining methods,

 

8.

Drill at least 2 additional high grade targets of the 16 defined high grade mineralized material targets, as identified in previous drill programs. Additional exploration and drilling to sufficiently establish continuity between drill holes on the Free Coin and Willie claims and the Tostman and Cascade claims. These claims were permitted and bonded in the 2008 Exploration Plan,

There are no production or milling operations on the property, as of today. There is no electric power on the property. Any future mining or milling operation will require either power lines to

49


reach the property or the generation of power on site. The Company has retained CDM Engineering of Helena, MT to conduct a cost estimate for power requirements.

Sample Collection, Preparation, Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC), and Analytical Procedures and Results, 2008 Exploration Program

Sample Collection:

     Two sample types were collected during 2008, the reverse circulation drill cuttings and hand/grab samples. Drill cuttings are by far the most numerous. Hand/grab samples of exposed mineralized material zones were also taken. Drill cutting samples were collected by the O'Keefe Drilling personnel with the supervision and assistance of GHC personnel. Drill cuttings were run through rig-mounted rotary splitters. During the sample collection, 5-10 lbs of sample were taken every 5 feet for assay. Smaller intervals were sampled where a mineralized material zone was able to be identified. Chip trays were made for each hole corresponding to the samples taken. These chip trays were used for assay sample selection and geologic interpretation. All sample bags and chip trays were provided by Grant Hartford. Hole ID Numbers and intervals were recorded on each sample bag.

     A total of 1879 samples were sent out for assay. Of these, 279 were assayed in duplicates of 2 to 4. These duplicates show an average deviation from the mean of 14.6%. These results compare well to Pegasus' duplicate results from 1989-1992 which found an average standard deviation of 15.5%.

     Pegasus drill data (1898-1992) includes 147 reverse circulation holes and six core holes resulting in 47,601 feet and 1,710 feet of drilling respectively. These samples were assayed at Silver Valley Labs, Chemex labs, and Pegasus labs.

Sample Custody/Transfer:

     All samples were stored on site until ready for transfer to the assay lab. All samples chosen for assay were delivered to the lab by GHC personnel. All samples determined to be waste are stored on GHC property. After assay, all rejects are returned to the job site for storage.

Assay Procedure:

     The samples were originally assayed by both Norris Lab of Norris, MT and Mt Powell Lab of Deer Lodge, MT. Due to the closer proximity and significantly lower assay costs, the Mt Powell lab was chosen for the majority of assay work.

The following assay procedure was received from Mt Powell Lab, Deer Lodge, MT.

     Samples are dried, crushed two times to minimum of 80% passing 1/4 inch, split to about 250 grams, and ground for the pulp. The sample is then fire-assayed for gold and silver values. Any crucibles which had samples over .4 oz/T are pulled from reuse (blank from such a crucible would be about .002 oz/T) This ensures no contamination to lower grade samples. Duplicates use the same pulp. Reruns are done in duplicate using a second spilt.

Geological Reports on our Property.

Nancy Hanks Project Geology And Drilling Report For 2008

J. Robert Flesher, Vice-President Geology & Mining, prepared a report on behalf of the Company on its 2008 exploration program. Selected informational sections of the report are provided as follows, for more information and to view the entire "Nancy Hanks Project Geology And Drilling Report for 2008," by J. Robert Flesher, please refer to our website, www.granthartford.com:

"The Garnet project is located forty miles east of Missoula in Granite County. The projects are part of the historic gold mining district of Garnet, Montana. This mining district produced approximately 150,000 ounces of gold from underground hard rock mining and an additional 500,000 ounces from the many placer operations from the late 1800's though the start of WWII. The gold contained in the hard rock deposits was primarily found in shallow to moderate dipping quartz veins, stock work systems, and shear zones, hosted by Cretaceous granodiorite, Paleozoic sediments, and upper Proterozoic quartzites."

"During the 2nd half of 2008, the Grant Hartford Corporation began a definition drilling program consisting of 54 reverse circulation drill holes (12,497.5 feet), examining three [mineralized material] systems. Drill targets were based on results from exploration conducted by Pegasus Gold between Dec., 1989 and Dec., 1992 and many historical records, maps, and other geologic reports. Pegasus Gold completed 147 reverse circulation holes (47,601 feet) and six core holes (1,710 feet). Combined, the total drill footage available for reserve calculation and mine planning is 31,808.5 feet."

"The drill program for 2008 was an overall success with multiple high-grade zones intercepted. The Company's 2008 drill program discovered and expanded [mineralized material] zones indentified by Pegasus in the East Dewey and North Dewey zones. Drilling on the Nancy Hanks deposit confirmed [mineralized material as] identified by Pegasus with open boundaries in several directions... A new [mineralized material] zone at the 200 foot level in the area of Nancy Hanks pit was discovered which is open in three directions. Inputting the Company's 2008 drill data and the Pegasus drill data into a sub-surface mine modeling program will provide the Company with an updated open pit [mineralized material tonnage and grade] calculation and an underground high-grade [mineralized material] calculation."

END OF EXCERPT FROM: Nancy Hanks Project Geology and Drilling Report for 2008

Excerpts From:

GEOLOGIC EXAMINATION OF THE ECONOMIC POTENTIAL FOR GOLD MINING
At The GARNET AREA GOLD MINING PROPERTY
By Thomas J. Peters, Geologist, WA License No. 2002
April 12, 2007

"The 5-mi2 Area, 23 patented and 122 located 20-acre claims, 50 mi east of Missoula, Montana includes the Garnet and Coloma mining districts, perched on the northwest-trending Garnet Range, dividing the Clark Fork and Blackfoot River drainages."

INTRODUCTION

"This report is an independent consultant's prospectus carried out at the behest of the Grant Hartford Corporation of Missoula, Montana, on the Garnet (gold prospect) Area. Area as used here represents all private property and claims, patented, located, and optioned, under the control of Grant Hartford. This "Area" includes the historic Garnet Mining District as well as the ghost town of Garnet. Formerly operating mines in the area includes the Nancy Hanks, Dewey, Grant & Hartford, Cascade, Shamrock, Tiger, Lead King, Red Cloud and others."

"Opinions expressed are based on two days of meeting with company partners and a day examining the site, April12, 2007; however, the Garnet Area is well documented by an extensive amount of good quality information. This examination has been carried out on a "for fee" basis, and the author has no financial interest in the Grant Hartford Company or the Garnet Area property. Under 1889 mining law, districts are not a property, but an organization representing a cluster of mines and infrastructures resulting from mining and economic activity around a locus of exploitable metallic mineralization. The Garnet district includes several mines, the available information, both published and unpublished, was generated by organized, well financed corporate mineral exploration programs or documented in detail by competent professionals."

"This is an economically interesting gold prospect, and there are outstanding possibilities for a very profitable gold mining operation while gold prices show great strength at over $650 per oz troy. Today's mining is safer, more efficient and environmentally friendly. Current technology offers a start up mining company mechanical, financial and intellectual agility. Gold is especially interesting because it's a high value, low tonnage commodity, and mining can be carried out at various scales of operations. Today, as in the early 1980's when gold prices spiked, if one walks up the creeks of Montana, California, and other western states, they are apt to find a suction dredge hidden in the reeds and brush, providing the intermittent placer miner much profit."

"A pivotal question remains regarding the gold source antecedent to mineralization within tactite, quartz veins, mylonite, fault gouge, and disseminations by hydrothermal alteration of various rock types, because it effects occurrence of additional resources. Possibilities include an abyssal source of hydrothermal gold, leached gold from younger source rocks long eroded away, or lateral secretion from intruded sedimentary rocks."

PREVIOUS WORK

"An immense amount of information has accumulated over the 140-year history of the Garnet Area, much of this has been gathered over the last 50 years by the efforts of James Charlton and his son Aaron Charlton. There is on site a room filled with file cabinet after cabinet and map case after case containing maps, cross-sections, publications, private reports, and detailed maps and descriptions of surface and underground workings. The Grant Hartford Corporation plans to digitize this library of material."

"Site-specific published reports include a U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin (660) by Pardee (1918), a Montana Bureau of Mines Memoir (39) (includes Bibliography) by Kauffman and Earll (1963), mapping by Wallace and others (1977, 1978), and an Iowa State University Master's Thesis (1986) by K.M. Wilkie on the Garnet-Coloma Area, Annual Reports of the State Inspector of Mines, and numerous newspaper and popular accounts. Regarding important details of stratigraphy; production records; mineralogical, geological, and historical information; the reader is referred to these. They are not outdated per se, although there is commonly additional information".

"Private work includes important maps of the Ohio Mining and Development Company (1919) and a pen contemporaneous report by T.H. Rosenkranz who detailed geology, operations, production, grades, and descriptions of [mineralized material] and rock of mining claims active at the time. Torrey (1934, 1935), a mining engineer, reported to the Nancy Hanks Gold Mining Company, H.A. Bellows, Treasurer. American Gold Company (AGC) work is reported by Irving (1965, 1967, and 1969)."

"Western Energy Company by Pederson (1988), Trans-Global Resources, N.L., by Koehler Stout (1991), geological mapping by University of Montana Geology Professor by James Sears was carried-out. A Final Summary report for AGC covering three years of systematic exploration by Trans-Global Resources, N.L., by Koehler Stout (1991)."

"Pegasus Gold Corporation final report, Stimson (1992), includes detailed appendices of exploration data which advances our understanding of surface resources to beyond the prefeasibility level. A report for the Clearwater Land Exchange by Brower (1999), discussed the probable viability of surface mining part of the deposit at a $315 per oz gold price. Also, there are several shorter professional reports and much specific, authentic and accurate, mineral and mining data."

[DESIGNATED MINERALIZED MATERIAL]

Surface [Designated Mineralized Material]

"[Mineralized material] occur in several forms. Perhaps most accessible for producing quick cash flow are existing mine dumps. Brower (1999, p.12) reports 31,952 tons of..." mineralized material.

"The second form of readily accessible [mineralized material] consists of shallow deposits, surface mineable... The best definition of these deposits was carried out between 1989 and 1992 by Pegasus Gold Corporation (Stimson, 1992), which planned to mine surface deposits:"

53


"Between December, 1989, and December 1992, Pegasus Gold conducted an exploration program covering over 22 square miles and employing airborne magnetics and resistivity, ground ,magnetics, IP, and resistivity surveys. Drill targets were defined using geologic mapping, rock, soil and trench geochemistry. Fourteen targets were drill tested with 147 reverse circulation holes (47,601 feet), and six core holes (1,710 feet). [Mineralized materials] were discovered in three separate deposits." "The [mineralized material] referred to are the Nancy Hanks and Cascade deposits. Pegasus determined there were 4.6 million tons of [mineralized material] grading between 0.037 oz per ton to 0.040 oz per ton... Their [mineralized material] determination was arrived at by calculating the estimate manually using the polygonal method. Brower (1993) commented:"

"The approach employed by Pegasus is suitable as a first approximation, early-indication type of estimate, to determine whether enough gross grade and tonnage is present to merit further work, but is far too generalized for feasibility decisions. More sophisticated analytical techniques using computer models (below) can reveal ore [probable economic - TJP] grades and gross tonnages that differ significantly from first approximations. They can be substantially higher or lower, due to more selective designation of what is ore [a probable economic grade - TJP] and what is waste, which can subsequently expand or contract mineable zones."

"The Brower report utilized the proprietary programs SURPAC to generate a mine block model and THREE-D to determine pit configuration and mineable tons of [mineralized material] and waste. Using data from 62 of Pegasus' drill holes in the Nancy Hanks deposit and 17 in the Magone & Anderson deposit with an average spacing of 250 feet apart...

"Computer modeling using Pegasus' drill hole data generated [mineralized material] of an average grade of 0.086 oz. per ton and a stripping ratio of 1.72..."

"There are many ways to look at the data when making a "ball park" estimate of profit and revenues prior to a full feasibility study. However it is sketched, surface [mineralized materials] are indicated [mineralized material] that should be mineable at an approximate average of 1 million tons per year for 6 to 10 years."

Competition.

In general, the mineral development industry is intensely competitive and even if commercial quantities of proven/probable reserves are identified and prepared for extraction, a ready market may not exist for the sale of the proven/ probable reserves.

We were incorporated on March 15, 2007 and our operations are not well-established. Most companies operating in this industry are more established and have greater resources to engage in the production of mineral claims. At the present time, our resources are limited. As a result of continuing losses, we may exhaust all of our resources and be unable to complete the exploration phase of the Garnet Mining Claims. There is also significant competition to retain qualified personnel to assist in conducting exploration activities. If a pre-feasibility or scoping study and exploration is completed and a commercially-viable deposit is identified and we are unable to retain additional qualified personnel, we may be unable to enter into the development and subsequently the production stage and achieve profitable operations. These factors could inhibit our ability to compete with other companies in the industry or to enter into the development or

54


production stages of a proven/probable reserve claim, in the event a commercially-viable deposit is identified.

Numerous factors beyond our control may affect the marketability of any future identified proven/probable reserve. These factors include but are not limited to: market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets and processing equipment, government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of reserves and environmental protection. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may result in our inability to receive an adequate return on our invested capital.

Compliance with Government Regulation

If we progress to the development and subsequently the production phase, our Small Miner Exclusion Statement (#46-032) will allow us to construct and operate a milling facility and mine an unlimited amount of material subject to a surface disturbance of less than five (5) acres.

We are undertaking a study to expand our Small Miner Exclusion Statement to an Operating Permit that would allow us to expand our mine operations beyond a surface disturbance area of five (5) acres. We cannot be certain that such approvals will be obtained. The cost and time involved in obtaining such approvals cannot be known in advance.

The primary agency that governs the exploration and mining of reserves identified in the future, in the State of Montana on private lands is the Montana Department of Environmental Quality ("DEQ"). The Bureau of Land Management manages the exploration, development and production of Montana's mineral resources on federally-owned lands, and implements policies and programs respecting their exploration, development and production, while at the same time protecting the environment.

Exploration, development and production of unpatented mining claims is regulated by the Bureau of Land Management ("BLM"). The exploration, development and production of patented mining claims is regulated by the Montana Department of Environmental Quality.

Activities such as trenching and drilling require us to post a reclamation bond calculated by the amount of surface disturbance. The bond is refundable upon a BLM and/or Department of Environmental Quality inspector's determination that the exploration program has completed the required reclamation.

The BLM governs the procedures involved in the location, staking, recording and payment of maintenance fees of unpatented lode claims and placer claims in Montana. The Bureau of Land Management and the Montana Department of Environmental Quality monitor and regulate all mineral exploration, development and production carried out on unpatented and patented mining claims in Montana. Their oversight applies to all mines during exploration, development, construction, production, closure, reclamation and abandonment. Additionally, OSHA, IMSHA, and Workers Compensation have provisions for employment standards, occupational health and safety, accident investigation, work place conditions, protective equipment, training programs, and site supervision. There are also federal and state statutes regarding water use and discharge.

We will also have to sustain the cost of reclamation and environmental remediation for all exploration work undertaken. Both reclamation and environmental remediation refer to putting disturbed ground back as close to its original state as possible. Reclamation is the process of

55


bringing the land back to its original natural state after completion of exploration activities. Environmental remediation refers to the physical activity of taking steps to remediate, or remedy any environmental damage, caused such as refilling trenches after sampling or cleaning up fuel spills. Our initial exploration program requires little reclamation or remediation because of minimal disturbance to the ground. At the date of this filing, the Company has posted bonds totaling $20,818 with the Montana Department of Environmental Quality for its 2008 exploration program.

Research and Development Expenditures

From inception through December 31, 2008, we have incurred research and development expenditures of: $6,900 for the generation of geological consulting reports, $8,491 for the organization of geological data, and $14,280 for a consulting agreement with the University of Montana.

Subsidiaries

The Company has neither formed, nor purchased any subsidiaries since the date of its incorporation.

Patents and Trademarks

The Company does not own, either legally or beneficially, any patent or trademark.

Business Plan

Our business plan is to proceed with the exploration of our Garnet Mining claims to attempt to identify proven/ probable reserves and determine their commercial feasibility for development, mining, producing and processing. We intend to proceed with the exploration program as recommended by our Vice-President of Mining and Geology, J. Robert Flesher. Our 2009 Exploration Program is expected to cost $1,140,000, excluding mining and the construction of a mill. We had ($697,350) in working capital as of December 31, 2008. Management proposes to satisfy our cash requirements and working capital needs through private placements of debt or equity offerings or other debt instruments in order to fund its 2009 Exploration Program.

However, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from debt transactions or the sale of our common stock to fund all of our anticipated expenses.

Market Information

According to the World Gold Counsel, demand for gold is widely spread around the world. East Asia, the Indian sub-continent and the Middle East accounted for 72% of world demand in 2007. In addition, India, Italy, Turkey, the United States and China are responsible for 55% of the world's gold demand; each market is being driven by a different set of socio-economic and cultural factors. The price of gold is set in daily trading sessions at metal exchanges throughout the world. Gold smelted to a fineness of .995 is considered pure and qualified to sell at the metal exchanges.

We are currently in the exploration stage and plan to proceed with a pre-feasibility or scoping study in order to identify an economically feasible deposit of gold, and intend to progress to the development and ultimately the production stage to begin mining and producing proven/probable gold reserves. At this point, we would contract with, and ship the mineralized material to, a local milling facility that would process the mineralized material. The local milling facility would then pay Grant Hartford Corporation an amount equal to the fair market value of the contained amount, minus the processing fees.

In addition, provided its economic feasibility, we intend to build a mill and processing facility on site in order to produce gold at a .995 fineness, which would eliminate the local milling facility and allow us to directly sell in the metals exchanges.

Grant Hartford Corporation has material contracts and agreements for service with the following firms. We will hire these firms' services on an as needed basis.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

Airborne Magnetics - A technique of geophysical exploration of an area using an airborne magnetometer to survey that area. Syn. Aeromagnetic Prospecting

Anastomosing - Pertaining to a network of branching and rejoining fault or vein surfaces or surface traces.

Anhydrous - As a general term, a substance is said to be anhydrous if it contains no water.

Anticline - In structural geology, an anticline is a fold that is convex up and has its oldest beds at its core.

Assays - To analyze the proportions of metals in a mineralized material; to test a mineralized material for composition, purity, weight, or other properties of commercial interest.

Carbonates - A sediment formed by the organic or inorganic precipitation from aqueous solution of carbonates of calcium, magnesium, or iron; e.g., limestone and dolomite.

Consulting Geologist - A specialist employed in an advisory capacity. Normally, this person does not manage or direct any operation, and is at the service of the board rather than of the company's administrative and executive staff.

Core Drilling - Drilling that uses hollow diamond-studded drill bits on the end of the drill stem to produce lengths of cylindrical rock of varying diameter. It has the advantage over other drilling methods of producing a solid core sample of the rock the drill has passed through, rather than chips, enabling more accurate determination and characterization of rock types, mineralized material, and structures encountered, and their orientations in three dimensions.

58


Core Holes - A boring by a diamond drill or other machine that is made for the purpose of obtaining core samples.

Deposits - Mineralized material deposit is used to designate a natural occurrence of a useful mineralized material, in sufficient extent and degree of concentration to invite exploitation.

Dolomite - Is the name of a sedimentary carbonate rock and a mineral, both composed of calcium magnesium carbonate found in crystals.

Drill Hole Records - A description of the borehole based on the daily logs from the driller and the samples and the report of the geologist.

Drilling - The operation of making deep holes with a drill for prospecting, exploration, or valuation.

Exploration - The search for mineralized material by (1) geological surveys; (2) geophysical prospecting (may be ground, aerial, or both); (3) boreholes and trial pits; or (4) surface or underground headings, drifts, or tunnels. Exploration aims at locating the presence of economically feasible mineralized material deposits and establishing their nature, shape, and grade, and the investigation may be divided into (1) preliminary and (2) final.

Exploratory Drilling - The drilling of boreholes from the surface or from underground workings, to seek and locate mineralized material and to establish geological structure.

Faulting - The process of fracturing and displacement that produces a fault.

Geochemistry - The branch of chemistry dealing with the chemical composition of the earth's crust and the chemical changes that occur there

Geology - Organized body of knowledge about the earth, including physical geology and historical geology, among others.

Geophysics - Physics of the Earth.

Grandiorite - Medium to coarse-grained rock that is one of the most abundant intrusive rocks. It contains quartz and is distinguished from granite by having more plagioclase feldspar than orthoclase feldspar; its other mineral constituents include hornblende, biotite, and augite. Granodiorite is similar to granite in appearance but darker.

Grinding Mill - A machine for the wet or dry fine crushing of rock or other material. The three main types are the ball, rod, and tube mills. The mill consists of a rotating cylindrical drum; the rock enters one hollow trunnion and the finished product leaves the other. Modern practice indicates ball mill feeds of 1/2 in, 3/4 in, and 1 in (1.27 cm, 1.91 cm, and 2.54 cm) for hard, medium, and soft rock respectively and the products range from 35 to 200 mesh and finer.

Output - The quantity of coal or mineralized material raised from a mine and expressed as being so many tons per shift, per week, or per year.

Planimeter - An instrument for measuring the area of any plane figure by passing a tracer around its boundary line.

Prefeasibility Study (PFS) - A preliminary assessment of the economic viability of mining a deposit. A PFS forms the basis for justifying further investigations including a full Feasibility Study. It usually follows a successful exploration campaign, and summarizes all geological, engineering, environmental, legal and economic information accumulated to date on the project.

Proterozoic Era - Younger of the two divisions of Precambrian time, from 2.5 billion to 542 million years ago. Proterozoic rocks have been identified on all the continents and often constitute important sources of metallic mineralized material, notably of iron, gold, copper, uranium, and nickel.

Quartzites - Metamorphic rock commonly formed by metamorphism of sandstone and composed of quartz. No rock cleavage. Breaks through sand grains in contrast to sandstone, which breaks around grains.

Its meaning has been generally expanded to include lime-bearing silicates, of any geologic age, derived from nearly pure limestone and dolomite with the introduction of large amounts of Si, Al, Fe, and Mg. In American usage, the term is more or less synonymous with tactite.

Strike - Direction of line formed by intersection of a rock surface with a horizontal plane. Strike is always perpendicular to direction of dip.

Stripping Ratio - The unit amount of spoil or overburden that must be removed to gain access to a unit amount of mineralized material, generally expressed in cubic yards of overburden to raw tons of mineralized material.

SURPAC (GENCOM) - is a comprehensive system for mineralized material evaluation, open pit and underground mine design, mine planning and production, used by geologists, engineers and surveyors daily.

Tailings - The finely ground material that remains after all economically recoverable metals or proven/probable reserves of economic interest has been removed from the deposit through milling and processing. Tailings may or may nor contain economically recoverable metals or proven/probable reserves.

The persons named above have full voting and investment power with respect to the shares indicated. Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a person (or group of persons) is deemed to be a "beneficial owner" of a security if he or she, directly or indirectly, has or shares the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. Accordingly, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security, when that person has the right to acquire sufficient common stock through options or warrants within 60 days.

Change of Control

We are not aware of any arrangement or understanding that may, at a subsequent date, result in a change of control of our Company.

Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the shareholders of our Company's issued and outstanding common stock, will be entitled to receive a pro rata share of all assets available for distribution to such holders.

In the event of any merger or consolidation with or into another company in connection with which our issued and outstanding shares are converted into or exchangeable for shares of stock, other securities or property (including cash), all holders of the Company's common stock will be entitled to receive the same kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property (including cash), but will be subject to any preferences granted to the issued and outstanding preferred shares.

Holders of our common stock have no pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to the Company's common stock.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

The common stock being offered by the selling shareholders were issued pursuant to transactions which were exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Company made three exempt offerings, two in 2007 and one in 2008. For additional information regarding the issuance of those shares, and warrants, see the narrative on the first and second 2007 Exempt Offerings and the third 2008 Exempt Offering. We are registering the common stock in order to permit the selling shareholders to offer their shares for resale from time to time. The selling shareholders are selling 1,886,893 shares of common stock. No other shares are being sold by Directors and Officers of our Company or their family members or companies controlled by them. To our knowledge, except as otherwise indicated in the footnotes to the selling shareholders table below, none of the selling shareholders are broker-dealers or affiliates of broker-dealers or have had any position, office or other material relationship with us in the last three years.

The table below lists the selling shareholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the common stock by each of the selling shareholders. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each selling shareholder, based on their ownership of the common stock as of the date of this Prospectus, assuming exercise of the warrants held by the selling shareholders on that date, without regard to any limitations on exercise. The fourth column lists the common stock being offered by this Prospectus by the selling shareholders. Because the selling shareholders may offer all or some of the shares pursuant to this Prospectus, and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements, or

72


understandings with respect to the sale of any of the shares of common stock that the selling shareholders will hold after completion of the offering. We cannot estimate the number of the shares that the selling shareholders will hold after completion of this Prospectus. Therefore, the fifth column assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the selling shareholders pursuant to this Prospectus.

The selling shareholders may, from time to time, offer and sell pursuant to this Prospectus, up to an aggregate of 1,886,893 shares of our common stock which are currently owned by our selling shareholders and an aggregate of 830,195 shares of our common stock issuable to the selling shareholders upon the exercise of the warrants. The selling shareholders may, from time to time, offer and sell any or all of the shares of common stock that are registered under this Prospectus, although they are not obligated to do so. See "Plan of Distribution."

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with rules promulgated by the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. This table is based upon information supplied to us by the selling shareholders. Except as otherwise indicated, we believe that the persons or entities named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of the common stock shown as beneficially owned by them, subject to community property laws where applicable.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering the issued common stock, and the issuable common stock upon the exercise of the warrants, to permit the resale of such common stock by the selling shareholders, from time to time, after the date of this Prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale

75


by the selling shareholders of the common stock, but we will receive the proceeds from the exercise of 830,195 warrants. We will receive $1,363,440, if all of the warrants are exercised. We will bear all fees and expenses incurred to register the common stock.

The selling shareholders may sell all or a portion of the common stock beneficially owned by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of common stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the selling shareholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent's commissions. The common stock may be sold in one or more transactions initially at a fixed price of $0.80 unless and until a public market for such shares is developed or the shares become quoted on the OTCBB, following which the selling shareholders may then sell their shares at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. These sales may be affected in transactions, which may involve cross or block transactions;

*

on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;

*

in the over-the-counter market;

*

in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market;

*

through the writing of options, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;

*

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

*

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

*

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

*

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

*

privately negotiated transactions;

*

short sales;

*

sales pursuant to Rule 144;

*

broker-dealers may agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

*

a combination of any such methods of sale; and

*

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

If the selling shareholders effect such transactions by selling common stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents; such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling shareholders or commissions from purchasers of the common stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved). In connection with sales of the common stock or otherwise, the selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The selling shareholders may also sell common stock short and deliver common stock covered by this Prospectus to close out short positions. The selling shareholders may also loan or pledge common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares.

The selling shareholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the warrants or common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the common stock from time to time pursuant to this Prospectus or any amendment to this Prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or

76


other applicable provision of the Securities Act, amending, if necessary, the list of selling shareholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling shareholders under this Prospectus. The selling shareholders also may transfer and donate the common stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this Prospectus. In the case of any such transfers, we will amend this Prospectus by filing a prospectus supplement disclosing the names and other required information about the transferee, who would become a selling shareholder under the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part.

The selling shareholders and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the common stock may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. At the time a particular offering of the common stock is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed which will set forth the aggregate amount of common stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents, any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling shareholders and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to broker-dealers.

Under the securities laws of some states, the common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

There can be no assurance that any selling shareholder will sell any or all of the common stock registered pursuant to the Registration Statement, of which this Prospectus forms a part. The selling shareholders and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations there under, including, without limitation, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the common stock by the selling shareholders and any other participating person. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the common stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the common stock.

We will pay all expenses of the registration of the common stock; provided, however, that a selling shareholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any. We will indemnify the selling shareholders against liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act or the selling shareholders will be entitled to contribution. We may be indemnified by the selling shareholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling shareholder specifically for use in this Prospectus or we may be entitled to contribution.

Once sold under the Registration Statement, of which this Prospectus forms a part, the common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

Penny Stock Rules

The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," which for the purposes relevant to us, is any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or having an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.

77


For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

*

that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and

*

the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

*

In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

*

obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and

*

make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

A broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

*

sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and

*

that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

If a broker or dealer violates the Penny Stock rules, the investor may be entitled to rescission of the transaction in which he or she bought stock subject to Rule 15g-9.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Grant Hartford Corporation

 

     We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Grant Hartford Corporation as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008, for the period from the date of inception (March 15, 2007) through December 31, 2007 and for the period from the date of inception (March 15, 2007) through December 31, 2008. Grant Hartford Corporation's management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Grant Hartford Corporation as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008, for the period from the date of inception (March 15, 2007) through December 31, 2007 and for the period from the date of inception (March 15, 2007) through December 31, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

     As discussed in Note 13 to the financial statements, certain errors were discovered by management of the Company that were previously reported as of December 31, 2008 and 2007. Accordingly, the financial statements at December 31, 2008 and 2007 have been restated to correct the error.

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company's significant operating losses and inability to generate revenue from operations raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

2.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Cash and cash equivalents:    The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash at financial institutions which may periodically exceed federally insured amounts.

Net income (or loss) per common share ("EPS") is computed in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of stock options and warrants issued.

Equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis using the following useful lives:

 

 

 

Computer hardware and software

 

3-5 years

Machinery and equipment

 

4-7 years

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2008

2.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Estimates:   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:    For certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, and option payment on mineral property, the carrying amounts approximate fair values due to their short maturities.

Mineral Property Exploration:    The Company expenses the costs incurred to conduct exploration, assay work, drill and equip exploratory sites within the claims groups that are not determined to have proven reserves. A reserve is that part of a mineral deposit which could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination. Proven (Measured) Reserves are those for which (a) quantity is computed from dimensions revealed in outcrops, trenches, workings or drill holes; grade and/or quality are computed from the results of detailed sampling and (b) the sites for inspection, sampling and measurement are spaced so closely and the geologic character is so well defined that size, shape, depth and mineral content of reserves are wellestablished. Probable (Indicated) Reserves are those for which quantity and grade and/or quality are computed form information similar to that used for proven (measure) reserves, but the sites for inspection, sampling, and measurement are farther apart or are otherwise less adequately spaced. The degree of assurance, although lower than that for proven (measured) reserves, is high enough to assume continuity between points of observation.

Geological and geophysical costs and costs of carrying and retaining unproved sites are expensed. Potential mineral properties are periodically assessed for impairment of value under SFAS 144 and EITF 04-3 and a loss will be recognized at the time of impairment.

The Company is in the "Exploration Stage" and is engaged in the exploration of the Garnet mineral property in order to identify the presence of proven/probable reserves. The Company has not begun exploitation of these deposits. As a result, no amounts have been capitalized related to mineral property exploration as of December 31, 2008 and 2007.

Accumulated mineral property costs are amortized using the units-of production ("UOP") method based on estimated recoverable ounces or pounds in proven and probable reserves.

3. MINING OPERATIONS (Continued)

History of Previous Operations

The following is a brief history of previous operations, including, insofar as known, the names and dates of previous operators: Between 1896 and 1942, geological reports indicate that the Nancy Hanks, Lead King, Dewey, International and Tiger mines were active on the Garnet property. The year of 1942 marked the beginning of World War II, causing mining to cease. American Mining Corporation conducted exploration on the Garnet Property in the 1960's. Western Energy Corporation, a mining exploration subsidiary of the Montana based power utility, Montana Power Company, conducted exploration of the Garnet Property from 1987 to 1989. Pegasus Gold Corp. ("Pegasus"), which was a mid size gold producing Company in the 1980's and mid 1990's, optioned the Garnet Property and conducted exploration activities between 1989 and 1993.

In Pegasus' exploration of the Garnet Property they identified mineralized material in two of Grant Hartford Corporation's mining claims that are under option through Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. Subsequently the Company used these previous exploration results from the Nancy Hanks and Dewey patented claims, as a basis for our current exploration plans.

Current Operations

The Company's 2008 exploration program was designed to quantify, through the use of definition drilling, both open pit and underground mine mineralized material targets identified by the previous Pegasus exploration program. The Company intends to use this information to proceed with prefeasibility or scoping studies in order to determine an updated existence of proven/ probable reserves.

During 2008, GHC completed 54 drill holes, with total drill footage of 12,497.5 feet. These holes were completed by O'Keefe Drilling using reverse circulation drill rigs. All holes were completed during the third and fourth quarters of 2008. Original drill plans included drilling on over eight (8) targets. Due to the promising results obtained in the first three zones drilled, drilling was concentrated on these three mineralized material zones. The drilling plan called for definition drilling near high-grade mineralized material zones encountered by Pegasus between 1989 and 1992. The drilling resulted in 1,879 samples generally representing five (5) foot intervals were sent for assay. Shorter intervals were sampled when vein systems were able to be identified. 229 samples were run in duplicates of 2-4 repeats. This represents a 12.2% assay duplication.

The Company's 2008 exploration program discovered and expanded mineralized material zones identified by Pegasus in the East Dewey and North Dewey zones. Drilling on the Nancy Hanks deposit confirmed mineralized material tonnage and grade, as identified by Pegasus, with open boundaries in several directions. A new mineralized material zone at the 200 foot level in the area of the Nancy Hanks pit was discovered which is open in three directions. Through the Company's current input of the Company's 2008 drill data and the Pegasus drill data into a sub-surface mine modeling programs the Company hopes to assist in proceeding with a pre-feasibility or scoping study to determine the updated existence of proven/probable reserves.

3. MINING OPERATIONS (Continued)

The Company's 2009 Exploration Plan is based on recommendations from its 2008 Drilling report written by Vice President of Mining and Geology, J. Robert Flesher:

1.

Enter all existing geological, geophysical and geochemical data, including the Pegasus drilling data, and the Company's 2008 drilling data, into a sub-surface 3D mine modeling program to determine an updated mineralized material calculation;

2.

Engage a metallurgical lab to analyze samples from the 2008 exploration program to determine the correct grind size, and conduct specific gravity concentration and flotation tests, in order to determine a flow sheet;

3.

Based on the data from the flow sheet, engage an engineering firm to design and provide bids for the construction of a milling facility to process high grade mineralized material;

4.

Engage a Geophysical firm to conduct Induced Polarization tests on the North Dewy target to identify additional anomalous areas for drilling during the 2009 season;

5.

Engage an underground mining engineer to provide cost estimates for underground mineralized material extraction on future identified deposits;

6.

Drill up to 150 reverse circulation holes on targets identified in the area of the Nancy Hanks and Dewey to block out mineralized material for possible extraction, and to complete definition drilling to improve the Nancy Hanks' open pit mineralized material calculation in order to determine the possible existence of proven/probable reserves;

7.

Upon completion of the 2009 exploration program, engage an engineering firm to proceed with a prefeasibility or scoping study in order to determine the existence of proven/probable reserves and the possible utilization of open pit mining methods;

8.

Drill at least 2 additional high grade targets of the 16 defined high grade mineralized material targets, as identified in previous drill programs. Additional exploration and drilling to sufficiently establish continuity between drill holes on the Free Coin and Willie claims and the Tostman and Cascade claims. These claims were permitted and bonded in the 2008 Exploration Plan.

There are no production or milling operations on the property, as of today. There is no electric power on the property. Any future mining or milling operation will require either power lines to reach the property or the generation of power on site. The Company has retained CDM Engineering of Helena, MT to conduct a cost estimate for power requirements.

Property Geology

In order to provide a brief overview and description of the rock formations and mineralization, present on the Garnet Mineral Property, and of which Grant Hartford Corporation is currently exploring, the following is an excerpt from "GEOLOGIC EXAMINATION OF THE ECONOMIC POTENTIAL FOR GOLD MINING At The GARNET AREA GOLD MINING PROPERTY" by Thomas J. Peters.

"Stratified sedimentary rock in the Garnet Area includes one billion-year old Precambrian Belt Series (Harrison and others, 1974) of predominantly regionally metamorphosed siltstones, or siltites. The silt and intercalated shale were deposited in a northwest-trending basin on the margin of an early proto-North American craton, which was open seaward to the west, and subsided slowly over a long period and produced up to 70,000-footthick sequence of thin bedded well sorted detritus, which in places contains stratabound Precambrian metallic mineralization. The triangular-shaped basin, both in map and cross-section views, shallowed eastward to an embayment extending to the Hellena area.

The Garnet area was also overlain by a variety of Paleozoic and Mesozoic, locally contact-metamorphosed, sedimentary strata, including a prominent 500-600 million-year-old Cambrian classical transgressive sequence of sandstone, shale and limestone. An ancient sea transgressed a long-eroded Precambrian surface of varied rock including regions of highly metallic provenance and early extensional tectonism. (Woodward and Bell 1995) Stratigraphers of epeiric sea deposits, which periodically covered stable cratons, refer to this hiatus as the Lipalian interval, which was followed by deposition of sediment containing the first several phyla of advanced megafauna. Lochman-Balk (1971, p. 97; 1972, p.60-75) compiled Cambrian paleogeography.

Marine regression, with concomitant regional hiatus from Ordovician through middle Devonion time, is indicated by the stratigraphic column of Kauffman (1963, Table 1). Callahan, (1966) associated metal deposits to hiatus-related unconformity. A second long net transgression inundated a diverse eroded surface (Craig, 1966, p. 100-110), depositing the Maywood, and Jefferson Formations. Stimson (1991) notes these units as well mineralized within 1,000 ft of contact with later intruded granite. Mississippian transgression is regionally documented by the Madison and Leadville Formations. Sears (1989) mapped the Cambrian Red Lion Formation and the Devonian Maywood Formation as a single unit, indicating uncertainty of age.

Later, tectonically formed features indicate multiple episodes of folding and faulting. Prominent folding resulted from the Larimide orogeny, which formed the prominent west-northwest-trending Deep Creek anticline plunging from Nineteen Ten Ridge northwest through the Red Cloud mine and along the southside of Anderson Hill and Summit Cabin. Folding ultimately resulted in intrusion of a granitic pluton on the northeast flank of the anticline, which cooled, forming a granodiorite stock and associated dikes of late Cretaceous age [72 to 83 Ma..(million years before present)]. Faulting was also prominent at this time, an end result of folding, however, faults are zones of weakness and tend to be reactivated through time along with generation of later faults.

Tactite or skarn, a high temperature contact metamorphic rock, formed along the contact of intrusive granitic rock with Paleozoic calcareous sedimentary strata, and is one type of gold mineralization. Detailed mapping of the contact metamorphic aureole of the Garnet stock was carried out by Mann, 2002. This is high temperature or hypothermal mineralization and usually thought of being formed at greater depths, hence a unique mineral suite forms which is chemically stable in high temperature and pressure environments. This early mineralization, although locally high grade, is not extensive and formed within a few feet of the igneous contact. The molten contact had been fairly dry and served to cauterize hydrothermal circulation, while actively calvingoff, or stoping, large blocks of Paleozoic strata and digesting them by melting into the magma."

Income taxes are provided on the income earned in the financial statements. In accordance with SFAS "Accounting for Income Taxes," the Company applies the liability method of accounting for income taxes, under which deferred income taxes are provided to reflect the impact of "temporary differences" between the amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such amounts as measured by tax laws and regulations. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets unless it is more likely than not that such assets will be realized.

The provision for income taxes consists of the following components:

 

2008

 

2007

 

 

Current tax

$               0

$               0

Deferred tax benefit of net operating loss

$   (406,751)

Increasse in deferred tax asset valuation allowance

$    406,751

$      96,974

 

 

 

 

$               0

$               0

The deferred tax benefits arose from the net operating losses incurred by the Company during the respective years. Net operating losses are currently allowed to be carried forward for twenty (20) years.

Deferred tax asssets as of December 31 consists of the following components:

 

2008

 

2007

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on January 1, 2008. As the result of the implementation of the FASB Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, the Company recognized no material adjustments to unrecognized tax benefits. At the adoption date of January 1, 2008 and as of December 31, 2008, the Company has no unrecognized tax benefits. By statute, tax years ending in December 31, 2007 through 2008 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

10. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles". SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 162 on its consolidated financial statements but does not expect it to have a material effect.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

11. RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in the prior year have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 8, 2009, the Company's amended articles of incorporation were approved to include authorization of 50,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of .0001.

In June 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with O'Keefe Drilling Company, Inc. (O'Keefe) for a maximum of $1,000,000 in drilling services. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company is to pay O'Keefe forty percent (40%) of invoiced services in cash and sixty percent (60%) in common stock at a value of $1.25 per share to be offered in a Regulation D Private Placement Memorandum.

13. REISSUANCE OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As a result of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) comments, we have reissued the financial statements to restate the following:

-

Management has determined the Company is an exploration stage company, not a development stage company. Titles through the financial statement have been changed.

-

As the Company is still an exploration stage company, and that the reserves are not considered to be proven reserves as of 12/31/08, the expenditures for the exploration are to be reclassified as an expense and not capitalized as an asset. See the following table for the restatement of amounts reported.

-

Management has determined that the stock issued in accordance with the option agreement had a more readily determinable value than that of $1. Therefore, the common stock and mineral property were restated on the balance sheet to reflect the new value of the shares issued, and these values are disclosed in the supplemental disclosure of non-cash investing and financing activities of the statements of cash flows, and in the notes to the financial statements. See the following table for the restatement of amounts reported.

-

The option agreement for mineral rights has a termination clause that allows the Company to avoid future obligation. Therefore, the liability for the agreement is limited to the amount incurred to date and should not include the remaining portion of the annual renewal. See the following table for the restatement of amounts reported.

-

Management has decided to restate Note 3 in regards to statements made and quoted material referenced in connection to previous operations, current operations, and property geology. There were no changes to amounts reported due to this change.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Grant Hartford Corporation (the "Company") was organized under the laws of the State of Montana on March 15, 2007. Since inception, the Company has been engaged in definition drilling to quantify a gold reserve.

The Company intends to correct any deficiency in working capital through the sale of its common equity to investors and non-convertible debt instruments in order to fund its exploration in 2009.

2.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Cash and cash equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash at financial institutions which may periodically exceed federally insured amounts.

Net income (or loss) per common share ("EPS") is computed in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of stock options and warrants issued.

Equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis using the following useful lives:

 

 

 

Computer hardware and software

 

3-5 years

Machinery and equipment

 

4-7 years

Furniture and fixtures

 

5-10 years

All maintenance and repair costs are charged to operations as incurred. The cost and accumulated depreciation for equipment sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts, and the resulting gains or losses are reflected in earnings. The assets and liabilities under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the asset. The assets are currently being amortized over their estimated lives. Amortization of assets under capital leases is included in depreciation expense.

2.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: For certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, option payment on mineral property, the carrying amounts approximate fair values due to their short maturities.

Mineral Property Exploration: The Company expenses the costs incurred to conduct exploration, assay work, drill and equip exploratory sites within the claims groups that are not determined to have proven reserves. A reserve is that part of a mineral deposit which could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination. Proven (Measured) Reserves are those for which (a) quantity is computed from dimensions revealed in outcrops, trenches, workings or drill holes; grade and/or quality are computed from the results of detailed sampling and (b) the sites for inspection, sampling and measurement are spaced so closely and the geologic character is so well defined that size, shape, depth and mineral content of reserves are wellestablished. Probable (Indicated) Reserves are those for which quantity and grade and/or quality are computed form information similar to that used for proven (measure) reserves, but the sites for inspection, sampling, and measurement are farther apart or are otherwise less adequately spaced. The degree of assurance, although lower than that for proven (measured) reserves, is high enough to assume continuity between points of observation.

Geological and geophysical costs and costs of carrying and retaining unproved sites are expensed. Potential mineral properties are periodically assessed for impairment of value under SFAS 144 and EITF 04-3 and a loss will be recognized at the time of impairment.

The Company is in the "Exploration Stage" and is engaged in the exploration of the Garnet mineral property in order to identify the presence of proven/probable reserves. The Company has not begun exploitation of these deposits. As a result, no amounts have been capitalized related to mineral property exploration as of June 30, 2009 and December 31,2008.

Accumulated mineral property costs are amortized using the units-of production ("UOP") method based on estimated recoverable ounces or pounds in proven and probable reserves.

Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the prior period financials statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period's presentation.

3. MINING OPERATIONS (Continued)

History of Previous Operations

The following is a brief history of previous operations, including, insofar as known, the names and dates of previous operators: Between 1896 and 1942, geological reports indicate that the Nancy Hanks, Lead King, Dewey, International and Tiger mines were active on the Garnet property. The year of 1942 marked the beginning of World War II, causing mining to cease. American Mining Corporation conducted exploration on the Garnet Property in the 1960's. Western Energy Corporation, a mining exploration subsidiary of the Montana based power utility, Montana Power Company, conducted exploration of the Garnet Property from 1987 to 1989. Pegasus Gold Corp. ("Pegasus"), which was a mid size gold producing Company in the 1980's and mid 1990's, optioned the Garnet Property and conducted exploration activities between 1989 and 1993.

In Pegasus' exploration of the Garnet Property they identified mineralized material in two of Grant Hartford Corporation's mining claims that are under option through Commonwealth Resources, L.L.C. Subsequently the Company used these previous exploration results from the Nancy Hanks and Dewey patented claims, as a basis for our current exploration plans.

Current Operations

During 2008, GHC completed 54 drill holes. These holes were completed by O'Keefe Drilling using reverse circulation drill rigs. All holes were completed during the third and fourth quarters of 2008. The drilling plan called for definition drilling near high-grade mineralized material zones encountered by Pegasus between 1989 and 1992.

The Company began its 2009 drilling program on May 19th.

There are no production or milling operations on the property, as of today. There is no electric power on the property. Any future mining or milling operation will require either power lines to reach the property or the generation of power on site. The Company has retained CDM Engineering of Helena, MT to conduct a cost estimate for power requirements.

Property Geology

In order to provide a brief overview and description of the rock formations and mineralization, present on the Garnet Mineral Property, and of which Grant Hartford Corporation is currently exploring, the following is an excerpt from "GEOLOGIC EXAMINATION OF THE ECONOMIC POTENTIAL FOR GOLD MINING At The GARNET AREA GOLD MINING PROPERTY" by Thomas J. Peters.

"Stratified sedimentary rock in the Garnet Area includes one billion-year old Precambrian Belt Series (Harrison and others, 1974) of predominantly regionally metamorphosed siltstones, or siltites. The silt and intercalated shale were deposited in a northwest-trending basin on the margin of an early proto-North American craton, which was open seaward to the west, and subsided slowly over a long period and produced up to 70,000-foot-thick sequence of thin bedded well sorted detritus, which in places contains stratabound Precambrian metallic mineralization. The triangular- shaped basin, both in map and cross-section views, shallowed eastward to an embayment extending to the Hellena area.

3. MINING OPERATIONS (Continued)

The Garnet area was also overlain by a variety of Paleozoic and Mesozoic, locally contact-metamorphosed, sedimentary strata, including a prominent 500-600 million-year-old Cambrian classical transgressive sequence of sandstone, shale and limestone. An ancient sea transgressed a long-eroded Precambrian surface of varied rock including regions of highly metallic provenance and early extensional tectonism. (Woodward and Bell 1995) Stratigraphers of epeiric sea deposits, which periodically covered stable cratons, refer to this hiatus as the Lipalian interval, which was followed by deposition of sediment containing the first several phyla of advanced megafauna. Lochman-Balk (1971, p. 97; 1972, p.60-75) compiled Cambrian paleogeography.

Marine regression, with concomitant regional hiatus from Ordovician through middle Devonion time, is indicated by the stratigraphic column of Kauffman (1963, Table 1). Callahan, (1966) associated metal deposits to hiatus-related unconformity. A second long net transgression inundated a diverse eroded surface (Craig, 1966, p. 100-110), depositing the Maywood, and Jefferson Formations. Stimson (1991) notes these units as well mineralized within 1,000 ft of contact with later intruded granite. Mississippian transgression is regionally documented by the Madison and Leadville Formations. Sears (1989) mapped the Cambrian Red Lion Formation and the Devonian Maywood Formation as a single unit, indicating uncertainty of age.

Later, tectonically formed features indicate multiple episodes of folding and faulting. Prominent folding resulted from the Larimide orogeny, which formed the prominent west- northwest-trending Deep Creek anticline plunging from Nineteen Ten Ridge northwest through the Red Cloud mine and along the southside of Anderson Hill and Summit Cabin. Folding ultimately resulted in intrusion of a granitic pluton on the northeast flank of the anticline, which cooled, forming a granodiorite stock and associated dikes of late Cretaceous age [72 to 83 Ma..(million years before present)]. Faulting was also prominent at this time, an end result of folding, however, faults are zones of weakness and tend to be reactivated through time along with generation of later faults.

Tactite or skarn, a high temperature contact metamorphic rock, formed along the contact of intrusive granitic rock with Paleozoic calcareous sedimentary strata, and is one type of gold mineralization. Detailed mapping of the contact metamorphic aureole of the Garnet stock was carried out by Mann, 2002. This is high temperature or hypothermal mineralization and usually thought of being formed at greater depths, hence a unique mineral suite forms which is chemically stable in high temperature and pressure environments. This early mineralization, although locally high grade, is not extensive and formed within a few feet of the igneous contact. The molten contact had been fairly dry and served to cauterize hydrothermal circulation, while actively calving-off, or stoping, large blocks of Paleozoic strata and digesting them by melting into the magma."

11. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements" ("SAB 108"), which provides interpretive guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 is effective for us in the 2008 fiscal year. The adoption of SAB 108 had no effect on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS 157"). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 will be applied prospectively and will be effective for periods beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS 157 had no material effect on our financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" ("FIN 48"), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Specifically, FIN 48 requires the recognition in financial statements of the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on the de-recognition of previously recognized deferred tax items, classification, accounting for interest and penalties, and accounting in interim periods related to uncertain tax positions, as well as, requires expanded disclosures. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. There was no impact on our financial statements as a result on implementing FIN 48.

In June 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") of the FASB ratified EITF Issue 06-3, "How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement. (That is, Gross Versus Net Presentation)." A consensus was reached that entities may adopt a policy of presenting taxes in the income statement on either a gross or net basis. An entity should disclose its policy of presenting taxes and the amount of any taxes presented on a gross basis should be disclosed, if significant. The guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2006. We present revenues net of taxes. EITF 06-3 will not impact the method for recording these sales taxes in our financial statements. In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities" SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value (the "fair value option"). A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items by which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date.

11. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Continued)

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations- Revised, that improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. To accomplish that, this statement establishes principles and requirements how the acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase, and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The changes to current practice resulting from the application of SFAS No. 141(R) are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) before December 15, 2008 is prohibited. The adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) had no material effect on our financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of ARB No. 51." The objective of this Statement is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards that require the following changes. The ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent be clearly identified, labeled, and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parent's equity. The amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest to be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income. When a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained non-controlling equity investment in the former subsidiary is initially measured at fair value. The gain or loss on the deconsolidation of the subsidiary is measured using the fair value of any non-controlling equity investment rather than the carrying amount of that retained investment and entities provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. The changes to current practices resulting from the application of SFAS No. 160 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning alter December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of SFAS No. 160 before December 15, 2008 is prohibited. The adoption of SFAS No. 160 had no material effect on our financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. SFAS No. 161 gives financial statement users better information about the reporting entity's hedges by providing for qualitative disclosures about the objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative data about the fair value of and gains and losses on derivative contracts, and details of credit- risk-related contingent features in their hedged positions. The standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged, but not required. The adoption of SFAS No. 161 had no material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 163, "Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60" ("SFAS 163"). SFAS 163 interprets Statement 60 and amends existing accounting pronouncements to clarify their application to the financial guarantee insurance contracts included within the scope of that Statement. SFAS 163 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years. As such, the Company is required to adopt these provisions at the beginning of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 163 on its financial statements [but does not expect it to have a material effect].

11. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Continued)

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 166 "Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140" ("SFAS 166"). SFAS 166 improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor's continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. SFAS 166 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. As such, the Company is required to adopt this standard in January 2010. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 166 will have on its financial statements.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 167 "Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)" ("SFAS 167"). SFAS 167 improves financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to address (1) the effects on certain provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities", as a result of the elimination of the qualifying special-purpose entity concept in SFAS 166 and (2) constituent concerns about the application of certain key provisions of Interpretation 46(R), including those in which the accounting and disclosures under the Interpretation do not always provide timely and useful information about an enterprise's involvement in a variable interest entity. SFAS 167 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. As such, the Company is required to adopt this standard in January 2010. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 167 will have on its financial statements.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 168, "The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" SFAS 168 replaces SFAS 162 and establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. SFAS 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 168 on its financial statements but does not expect it to have a material effect.

Item 17. Undertakings.

          The issuer will:

          (1) File, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

          (i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

          (ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement; and notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum

86


aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and

          (iii) Include any additional or changed material information to the plan of distribution.

          (2) For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering.

          (3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.

          (4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

          Each prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed

incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

          Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

          In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the small business issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
