INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN REPORT

Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 9, 2009, the board of directors approved the sale of Atzek Mineral SA de CV, its Mexican subsidiary and all its assets.  It was agreed for reasons of convenience and efficiency that Soltera sold the subsidiary to Mr. Benjamin Leonard Lagarda Burton and to Mr. Benjamin Luis Lagarda Burgos.

The purchase price for the subsidiary, including its assets such as a four wheeled drive vehicle, was agreed to be precisely the amount of outstanding debt.  The buyers agreed to take all responsibility for any existing debt and the future operation of the subsidiary.

Soltera is waiting for a signed acknowledgement from Mr. Burton and Mr. Burgos as to the receipt of the subsidiary and its assets.

Item 1.02.
Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

Soltera has relinquished its interest in the option agreements on the Eureka and Eureka Sur copper properties because these agreements could only be maintained by substantial payments.  Soltera intends to use all available funding to explore and develop the El Torno gold property with the objective of achieving early production from surficial gold deposits.

On December 18, 2009, Soltera chose not to renew its exclusive right to explore the Eureka copper property, which expired on December 19, 2009.  Also, on July 28, 2010, Soltera chose not to make the payment of US$1,350,000, which was required by July 30, 2010 in order to maintain the option agreement on the Sur Eureka (Argentina) copper property.  The titleholder found a company interested in buying the property and Soltera was not in a position to compete, so Soltera chose not to exercise its right of first refusal to purchase the property.

See Exhibit 10.14 – Option Agreement and Exhibit 10.18 – Irrevocable Offer Agreement for more details.

Item 3.02.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On June 17, 2010, the board of directors authorized the issuance of 2,999,487 restricted units at a subscription price of $0.10 per restricted unit pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Financing Agreement with Goldlake Italia S.p.A.  Each restricted unit consisted of one restricted shares of common stock in the capital of Soltera and one non-transferable share purchase warrants.  Each restricted whole warrant enabled the holder to purchase two additional restricted shares of common stock in the capital of Soltera at a price of $0.15 per restricted warrant for a period of two years exercisable from six months to two years from completion of payment of the first tranche of financing.  The first tranche of the Financing Agreement closed on June 17, 2010 and Soltera received $299,948.70 in cash and issued an aggregate 2,999,487 restricted units to Goldlake Italia S.p.A.

On August 31, 2010, the board of directors authorized the issuance of 2,000,000 restricted units at a subscription price of $0.10 per restricted unit pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Financing Agreement with Goldlake Italia S.p.A.  Each restricted unit consisted of one restricted shares of common stock in the capital of Soltera and one non-transferable share purchase warrants.  Each restricted whole warrant enabled the holder to purchase two additional restricted shares of common stock in the capital of Soltera at a price of $0.15 per restricted warrant for a period of two years exercisable from December 17, 2010 to June 16, 2012.  The second tranche of the Financing Agreement closed on August 31, 2010 and Soltera received $200,000 in cash and issued an aggregate 2,000,000 restricted units to Goldlake Italia S.p.A.

In the closing of the first and second tranche of financing, Soltera relied upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 903 of Regulation S promulgated pursuant to that Act by the Securities and Exchange Commission for the issuance of the restricted units to Goldlake Italia S.p.A. as a non-US subscriber outside the United States.  The value of the restricted units was agreed upon between the parties of the Financing Agreement.  Management is satisfied that Soltera complied with the requirements of the exemption from the registration and prospectus delivery of the Securities Act of 1933.  The offering was not a public offering and was not accompanied by any general advertisement or any general solicitation.  Soltera received from the subscriber certain representations and warranties, including, among others, that (a) the subscriber was not a U.S. person, (b) the subscriber subscribed for the shares and warrants for their own investment account and not on behalf of a U.S. person, and (c) there was no prearrangement for the sale of the shares or warrants with any buyer.  No offer was made or accepted in the United States and the share certificates representing the shares were issued bearing a legend with the applicable trading restrictions.

Goldlake Italia S.p.A. has invested US$200,000 in Soltera Mining Corp. under the terms of the Financing Agreement signed on June 9, 2010 in return for two million shares at US$0.10 per share plus warrants to subscribe to two shares at US$0.15 per share.  This is the second tranche of funding (the first was US$300,000 paid in June 2010) and is double the amount required by the Financing Agreement.  The funds were paid by Goldlake IP S.p.A. on behalf of  Goldlake Italia S.p.A.

The new investment will be used primarily for testwork on the El Torno gold property in Argentina.  A programme of sampling and trenching is planned for September and October this year, with particular emphasis on the potential for easily treatable surficial gold.
