Item 3.02
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

On August 24, 2010, Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold, formerly known as Phelps Dodge Corporation, converted all of its 625,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into 1,000,000 shares of common stock.  The common shares were issued without registration under the Securities Act by reason of the exemption from registration afforded by the provisions of Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.  No commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange.

With the conversion of the above-referenced preferred shares, we currently have 40,370,012 common shares issued and outstanding and 6,739,785 warrants outstanding.  Of the outstanding warrants, 4,250,000 are held by Rubicon Master Fund and expire on April 1, 2011, and all but 254,785 of the remaining warrants are held by management.  We also continue to have outstanding 2,740,000 common stock options and 1,050,000 common shares issuable upon reaching certain milestones.
