NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Gilla Inc. (Gilla or the Company) was incorporated under the Laws of the State of Nevada on
March 28, 1995 under the name of Truco, Inc. The shareholders approved name changes on March 22,
1996, March 18, 1997, September 13, 1999, October 3, 2000, April 23, 2003 and March 30, 2007 to Web
Tech, Inc., Cynergy, Inc., Mercantile Factoring Credit Online Corp., Incitations, Inc., Osprey Gold
Corp. and to its present name, respectively. On February 5, 2007 the board of directors approved
the creation of two subsidiaries of the Company, a United States Subsidiary and a Canadian
Subsidiary. Prior to the merger in September 1999, the Companys activities had been in the
development of proprietary technology and services using smart and remote memory cards and wireless
and landline networks in the fields of commerce, publishing and network based systems. The
Companys activities are currently focused on mineral-property development specializing in
acquiring and consolidating mineral properties with production potential and future growth through
exploration discoveries.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of Gilla, Inc. include the accounts of the following
companies: Gilla, Inc. and Free Mining Company S.A. All material intercompany transactions have
been eliminated.
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting where revenues and
expenses are recognized in the period in which they were incurred. The basis of accounting
conforms to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Interim Reporting
While the information presented in the accompanying interim nine months financial statements
is unaudited, it includes all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to
present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods
presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. These interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of
their application as the December 31, 2008 audited annual financial statements of Gilla Inc. All
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. It is suggested that these interim financial
statements be read in conjunction with the Companys December 31, 2008 annual audited financial
statements.
Operating results for the nine ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that can be expected for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Going Concern
As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has had recurring losses.
The Companys net loss was $12,915,427 and $1,230,889 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009
and 2008, respectively and net cash used in operations totaled $174,054 and $385,769 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Shareholders equity of $4,659,497 and an
accumulated deficit of $25,689,522 at September 30, 2009 raise substantial doubt about the
Companys ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any
adjustments to reflect the possible effects on recoverability and classification of assets or the
amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from our inability to continue as a going
concern.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the ability to further implement our
business plan, raise capital, and generate revenues. Our management recognizes that we must
generate additional resources and that we must successfully implement our business plan and
achieves profitable operations. We cannot assure that we will be successful in any of these
activities. Should any of these events not occur, our financial condition will be materially
adversely affected.
The time required for us to become profitable from operations is highly uncertain, and we cannot
assure you that we will achieve or sustain operating profitability or generate sufficient cash flow
to meet our planned capital expenditures. If required, our ability to obtain additional financing
from other sources also depends on many factors beyond our control, including the state of the
capital markets and the prospects for our business. The necessary additional financing may not be
available to us or may be available only on terms that would result in further dilution to the
current owners of our common stock.
7
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
We cannot assure that we will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or obtain additional
financing to meet our obligations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to
reflect the possible effects on recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and
classification of liabilities, which may result from the inability of the Company to continue as a
going concern.
Managements Plans
The Company is currently exploring options to raise capital and maximize shareholder returns.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of these
financials statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 3 MINING RIGHTS
Through the acquisition of Free Mining Company S.A., Gilla, Inc. acquired 100% of the rights to
exploration, development and production of all mineral rights of Mfoumou and Sele in Cameroon. On
June 8th, 2009, Gilla was advised by its attorney in Cameroon that the exploration permits for
Mfoumou and Sele were withdrawn from FMC, consequently management has determined the fair value of
the Cameroon mining rights at June 30, 2009 to be $0. Asset impairment of expenses of $12,744.110
has been recorded for the period ending September 30. 2009.
On October 29, 2008, Gilla Inc. (Gilla) entered into an agreement (Acquisition Agreement) with
Terra Merchant Resources Corporation (Terra) and the stockholders of Terra for substantially all
of Terra assets. On December 18, 2008 9.2 million shares of Gilla Inc. were issued to Terra
shareholders. By acquiring Terra mining rights, Gilla has secured a minimum 70% interest in the
Salutar Comercio Mining Concession in Angola. Management has determined the fair value of the
Angolan mining rights at September 30, 2009 to be $4,600,000.
NOTE 4 ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATES
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued its final Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 168, "The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles a Replacement of FASB Statement No. 162.
SFAS No. 168 made the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification) the single source
of U.S. GAAP used by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements, except
for rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under authority
of federal securities laws, which are sources of authoritative accounting guidance for SEC
registrants. The Codification is meant to simplify user access to all authoritative accounting
guidance by reorganizing U.S. GAAP pronouncements into roughly 90 accounting topics within a
consistent structure; its purpose is not to create new accounting and reporting guidance. The
Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards and was effective
for the Company beginning July 1, 2009. Following SFAS No. 168, the Board will not issue new
standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts;
instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (ASU). The FASB will not consider ASUs as
authoritative in their own right; these updates will serve only to update the Codification, provide
background information about the guidance, and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s)
in the Codification.
In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-05 which includes amendments to Subtopic 820-10, Fair
Value Measurements and DisclosuresOverall. The update provides clarification that in
circumstances, in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not
available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques
provided for in this update. The amendments in this ASU clarify that a reporting entity is not
required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a
restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability and also clarifies that both a quoted
price in an active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted price
for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the
quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. The guidance provided
in this ASU is effective for the first reporting period, including interim periods, beginning after
issuance. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Companys
consolidated financial position and results of operations.
9
NOTE 4
ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATES (Continued)
In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-06, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Implementation Guidance
on Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes and Disclosure Amendments for Nonpublic Entities,
which provides implementation guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, as well as
eliminates certain disclosure requirements for nonpublic entities. For entities that are currently
applying the standards for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, this update shall be
effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. For those entities that
have deferred the application of accounting for uncertainty in income taxes in accordance with
paragraph 740-10-65-1(e), this update shall be effective upon adoption of those standards. The
adoption of this standard is not expected to have an impact on the Companys (consolidated)
financial position and results of operations since this accounting standard update provides only
implementation and disclosure amendments.
In September 2009, the FASB has published ASU No. 2009-12, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
(Topic 820) Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its
Equivalent). This ASU amends Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
Overall, to permit a reporting entity to measure the fair value of certain investments on the
basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent). This ASU also
requires new disclosures, by major category of investments including the attributes of investments
within the scope of this amendment to the Codification. The guidance in this Update is effective
for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. Early application is permitted.
The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Companys
consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In October 2009, the FASB has published ASU 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)-Multiple
Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable
arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather
than as a combined unit. Specifically, this guidance amends the criteria in Subtopic 605-25,
Revenue Recognition-Multiple-Element Arrangements, for separating consideration in
multiple-deliverable arrangements. This guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for
determining the selling price of a deliverable, which is based on: (a) vendor-specific objective
evidence; (b) third-party evidence; or (c) estimates. This guidance also eliminates the residual
method of allocation and requires that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of
the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method and also requires
expanded disclosures. The guidance in this update is effective prospectively for revenue
arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15,
2010. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Companys
consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In October 2009, the FASB has published ASU 2009-14, Software (Topic 985)-Certain Revenue
Arrangements that Include Software Elements and changes the accounting model for revenue
arrangements that include both tangible products and software elements. Under this guidance,
tangible products containing software components and nonsoftware components that function together
to deliver the tangible products essential functionality are excluded from the software revenue
guidance in Subtopic 985-605, Software-Revenue Recognition. In addition, hardware components of a
tangible product containing software components are always excluded from the software revenue
guidance. The guidance in this ASU is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered
into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is
permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Companys
consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Other ASUs not effective until after September 30, 2009, are not expected to have a significant
effect on the Companys (consolidated) financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 5 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On October 28, 2009, 4,248,037 Shares were returned to Treasury.
On October 30, 2009, Gilla Inc. closed a non-brokered private placement, issuing 5,000,000 common
shares at a price of $0.01 per share. Total proceeds from the private placement were $50,000. The
proceeds from the issuance of shares will be used to cover legal fees related to the canceling of
Certificates of certain shareholders as specified in the June 8, 2009 8-K filing and to finance the
search for additional mining rights in Africa.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation
Gilla is a mineral-property development company specializing in acquiring and consolidating
mineral properties with production potential, and future growth through exploration discoveries.
In 2008 Gilla added to its management, allowing Gilla to increase its focus on further developing
existing properties and acquiring new properties.
On January 31, 2008, Gilla Inc. entered into an agreement with Free Mining Company S.A. (FMC) and
the shareholders of FMC to acquire all issued and outstanding shares of FMC which is the exclusive
owner of the rights to two mineral properties in Cameroon, respectively known as MFOUMOU and
SELE in exchange for an aggregate of 21,240,184 common shares.
The exploration permits, granted by the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Technological Development
in 2007, for MFOUMOU and SELE are respectively for the Nanga Eboko Rutile Project and the
Akonolinga Rutile Project. The Mfoumou permit covers 998 square kilometers and the Sele permit covers 993 square kilometers . Each permit has a validity of
three years and is renewable four times for a period of two years each.
In relation to FMC and as per the 8-K filing on June 28, 2009, the Companys board of directors has
voted for the cancellation of all the shares issued to Messrs Fotso, Djekam and Robinson and
intends to demand reimbursement of all fees and expenses incurred in relation to the Cameroon
permits as well as adequate compensation for damages.
On September 17, 2009, Gilla, Inc. (the Company) filed a lawsuit in the District Court of Nevada,
Clark County, seeking a declaratory judgment and injunctive relief against Georges Fotso, Capital
Venture Facilitators, LLC, Mathurin Djekam, Marie-Gisele Momo Minlo, Pauline NGO Bapa and DRR
Capital Corporation (collectively, the Defendants). The Company is seeking a declaration by the
Court affirming the Companys cancellation of a total of 21,784,995 shares of the Companys common
stock issued to the Defendants and to temporarily and permanently enjoin the Defendants from
attempting to transfer the certificates representing such shares and to require the Defendants to
return such certificates for cancellation. The certificates that are the subject of this lawsuit
include Certificate #31241 representing 10,000,000 shares issued to Mr. Fotso, Certificate #31240
representing 6,392,150 shares issued to Capital Venture Facilitators, LLC, Certificate #31244
representing 4,248,037 shares issued to Mr. Djekam, Certificate #31238 representing 500,000 shares
issued to Ms. Minlo, Certificate #31239 representing 100,000 shares issued to Ms. Bapa and
Certificate #31248 representing 544,808 shares issued to DRR Capital Corporation, represented by
David Robinson. The Companys board of directors had taken formal action to cancel these shares on
June 8, 2009 based on failure of consideration and breaches of contractual and fiduciary duties on
behalf of the Defendants.
In June 2009, we recorded an impairment charge of $12.7 million to write off the total remaining
value of our 100% interest in FMC because we were advised by our attorney in Cameroon that the
expiration permits for MFOUMOU and SELE were, on Mr. Fotsos (a former director of Gilla)
recommendation to the Ministry of Mines, withdrawn from FMC. Consequently management has determined
the fair value of the mining rights at June 30, 2009 to be $0. An asset impairment expense of
$12,744,110 has been recorded for the period ending September 30. 2009.
Gilla entered into a definitive agreement effective October 3, 2008 to acquire the mining rights
owned by Terra Merchant Resources, (Terra), a private company incorporated in Ontario, Canada.
Terra has secured rights to a gold exploration property in Angola, known under the name of Salutar
Commercio Mining Concession, located some 120 km north of Cabinda City, Angola. The concession
covers approximately 200 square kilometers. Through a Joint Venture agreement, Gilla has rights to
70% of the mineral concession.
The 2008 exploration stream sediment sampling program returned anomalous gold values on its 199
square kilometer Salutar Comercio Prospecting Licence (PL) in the Province of Cabinda,
Angola. Predominantly metasedimentary lithologies of Pre-Cambrian age of the Mayombe tectonic
system underlie the PL.
Based on the success of the 2008 exploration program the Company will carry out stream sediment
sampling on the unsampled portion of the PL. In addition soil sampling of five areas upstream of
the anomalous gold values is planned.

OVERVIEW
The Company is a mineral-property development company specializing in acquiring and
consolidating mineral properties with production potential and future growth through exploration
discoveries. Acquisition and development emphasis is focused on properties containing precious
metals and/or other strategic minerals that are located in Canada. In October 2006, the Company
sold all the mining claims in the Porcupine Mining Divisions in Ontario, Canada, to a private
company, Coldrock Resources Inc.
The Company has a history of operating losses and we expect to continue to incur operating
losses in the near future.
The report of our independent accountants on our December 31, 2008 financial statements
includes an explanatory paragraph indicating that there is substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern due to substantial recurring losses from operations and significant
accumulated deficit and working capital deficit. Our ability to continue as a going concern will be
determined by our ability to obtain additional funding and commence and maintain successful
operations. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.
CERTAIN BUSINESS RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described below before purchasing our common stock. If
any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, or results or
operations could be materially adversely affected, the trading of our common stock could decline,
and you may lose all or part of your investment. You should acquire shares of our common stock only
if you can afford to lose your entire investment.
MINERAL EXPLORATION IS HIGHLY SPECULATIVE, INVOLVES SUBSTANTIAL EXPENDITURES, AND IS FREQUENTLY NON-PRODUCTIVE
Mineral exploration involves a high degree of risk and exploration projects are frequently
unsuccessful. Few prospects that are explored end up being ultimately developed into producing
mines. To the extent that we continue to be involved in gold explorations, the long-term success of
our operations will be related to the cost and success of our exploration programs. We cannot
assure you that our gold exploration efforts will be successful. The risks associated with gold
exploration include:
$ The identification of potential gold mineralization based on superficial analysis;
$ The quality of our management and our geological and technical expertise; and
$ The capital available for exploration and development.
Substantial expenditures are required to determine if a project has economically mine able
mineralization. It may take several years to establish proven and probable reserves and to develop
and construct mining and processing facilities. As a result of these uncertainties, we cannot
assure you that current and future exploration programs will result in the discovery of reserves,
the expansion of our existing reserves and the development of mines.
THE PRICE OF GOLD AND OTHER MINERALS ARE HIGHLY VOLATILE AND A DECREASE IN THE PRICE OF GOLD AND OTHER MINERALS CAN HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS
The profitability of gold and mineral mining operations is directly related to market prices.
The market prices of gold other minerals fluctuate significantly and are affected by a number of
factors beyond our control, including, but not limited to, the rate of inflation, the exchange rate
of the dollar to other currencies, interest rates, development of a mine is undertaken and the time
production can commence can significantly affect the profitability of a mine. Accordingly, we may
begin to develop one or more of our mines at a time when the price of gold or other minerals makes
such exploration economically feasible and, subsequently, incur losses because the price of gold or
other minerals decreases. We cannot predict the market price or fluctuations of the gold or copper
price.
WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY WITH SIGNIFICANT LOSSES AND EXPECT LOSSES TO CONTINUE FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE
We have yet to establish any history of profitable operations. We expect that our revenues
will not be sufficient to sustain our operations for the foreseeable future. Our profitability will
require the successful commercialization of our gold mines. No assurances can be given that we will
be able to successfully commercialize our gold mines or that we will ever be profitable.
Our independent auditors have added an explanatory paragraph to their audit opinion issued in
connection with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008. The Companys
auditors have expressed doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. As of
September 30, 2009, the Company has current assets in the
form of cash of $61,720, prepaid expense of $3,000 and current liabilities of $5,223. The
Companys net losses to date are $25,689,522
13
THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN DUE TO
SIGNIFICANT RECURRING LOSSES FROM OPERATIONS, ACCUMULATED DEFICIT AND WORKING CAPITAL DEFCIT ALL OF
WHICH MEANS THAT WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE OPERATIONS UNLESS WE OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FUNDING.
The report of our independent accountants on our December 31, 2008 financial statements
includes an explanatory paragraph indicating that there is substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern due to substantial recurring losses from operations and significant
accumulated deficit and working capital deficit. Our ability to continue as a going concern will be
determined by our ability to obtain additional funding and commence and maintain successful
operations. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.
WE ARE DEPENDENT ON KEY PERSONNEL, THEIR LOSS MAY HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT
We are dependent on the services of certain key executives, including Georges Benarroch,
President and Director, Daniel Barrette, Chief Operating Officer, and Linda Kent, Corporate
Secretary. The loss of any of these individuals could have a material adverse effect on our
business and operations. We currently do not have key person insurance on these individuals.
THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK IS HIGHLY VOLATILE, WHICH COULD HINDER OUR ABILITY TO RAISE
ADDITIONAL CAPITAL
The market price of our common stock has been and is expected to continue to be highly
volatile. Factors, including regulatory matters, concerns about our financial condition, operating
results, litigation, government regulation, developments or disputes relating to agreements, title
to our properties or proprietary rights, may have a significant impact on the market price of our
stock. The range of the high and low bid prices of our common stock over the last 3 years has been
between $4.75 (high) and $0.05(low). In addition, potential dilutive effects of future sales of
shares of common stock by shareholders and by the company, and subsequent sale of common stock by
the holders of warrants and options could have an adverse effect on the price of our securities,
which could hinder our ability to raise additional capital to fully implement our business,
operating and development plans.
PENNY STOCK REGULATION EFFECT OUR STOCK PRICE, WHICH MAY MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR INVESTORS TO
SELL THEIR STOCK
Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks are regulated by
certain penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks generally
are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain
national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and
volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or
system). 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 risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also
provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of
the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the
market value of each penny stock held in the customers account. In addition, the penny stock rules
generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock the broker-dealers make a special
written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchasers written
agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the
level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny
stock rule. Our securities will be subject to the penny stock rules, and investors may find it more
difficult to sell their securities
14
OWNERSHIP OF OUR SHARES IS CONCENTRATED, TO SOME EXTENT, IN THE HANDS OF A FEW INVESTORS,
WHICH COULD LIMIT THE ABILITY OF OUR OTHER STOCKHOLDERS TO INFLUENCE THE DIRECTION OF THE COMPANY:
Free Mining Company S.A.s Shareholders owned approximately 54.6% of our common stock; as of
September 30, 2009. In January 2008, together with Mr. Mathurin Tchakounte Djekam, Messrs Fotso and
Robinson received 21,240,184 common shares of Gilla Inc. in exchange for all the shares of FMC. As
per the 8k filing on June 28, 2009, the Company board of directors has voted for the cancellation
of all the shares issued to Messrs Fotso, Djekam and Robinson .
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make a wide variety of estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as
of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting periods covered by the financial statements. Our management routinely makes judgments
and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the future resolution of the
uncertainties increases, these judgments become even more subjective and complex. We have
identified certain accounting policies that are most important to the portrayal of our current
financial condition and results of operations. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in
Notes to Financial Statements. Several of those critical accounting policies are as follows:
DEPRECIATION AND DEPLETION.
Depreciation is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets and is computed using the
straight-line method.
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVE ASSETS .
Management reviews the net carrying value of all property and equipment and other long-lived
assets, including mineral properties, on a periodic basis. We estimate the net realizable value of
asset based on the estimated undiscounted future cash flows that will be generated from operations
at each property, the estimated salvage value of the surface plant and equipment and the value
associated with property interests. These estimates of undiscounted future cash flows are dependent
upon the estimates of metal to be recovered from proven and probable ore reserves, future
production cost estimates and future metals price estimates over the estimated remaining life of
the mineral property. If undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of a property, an
impairment loss will be recognized based upon the estimated expected future cash flows from the
property discounted at an interest rate commensurate with the risk involved.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER, 2009
The Registrant conducted no actual mining operation during the nine months ended September 30,
2009. As such, it had no revenues as described in the financial statements, attached hereto.
However, the Company had total operating expenses of $12,915,427.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of September 30, 2009 we had $61,720 in cash. We anticipate total expenditures in 2009 for
general and administrative and legal expenses to be approximately $200,000. The amount spent for
this expense will be directly affected by our capital raising ability.
These amounts could increase or decrease significantly, at any time during the fiscal year, based
on exploration/development results and decisions about releasing or acquiring additional
properties, among other factors.
As of September 30, 2009, the Company had current assets of $64,720 compared to current liabilities
of $5,223 resulting in working capital of $59,497.

Item 3. Disclosure Controls and Procedures
(a) The registrants principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded
that the registrants disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a -
15(e)), based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures as of the end of the period
covered by this report, are appropriately designed to ensure that material information relating to
the registrant is made known to such officers and are operating effectively.
(b) The registrants principal executive officer and principal financial officer have determined
that there have been no changes in the registrants internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during the registrants last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, the registrants internal control over financial reporting.
PART II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Clark County, seeking a declaratory judgment and injunctive relief against Georges Fotso, Capital
Venture Facilitators, LLC, Mathurin Djekam, Marie-Gisele Momo Minlo, Pauline NGO Bapa and DRR
Capital Corporation (collectively, the Defendants). The Company is seeking a declaration by the
Court affirming the Companys cancellation of a total of 21,784,995 shares of the Companys common
stock issued to the Defendants and to temporarily and permanently enjoin the Defendants from
attempting to transfer the certificates representing such shares and to require the Defendants to
