NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 28, 2011 (unaudited)


NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 5, 2004. The Company was initially formed to engage in the business of reclaiming and stabilizing land in preparation for construction in the United States of America. On November 27, 2006, the Company filed Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of Nevada in order to effectuate a merger whereby the Company (as Revelstoke Industries, Inc.) would merge with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Geneva Gold Corp. This merger became effective as of December 1, 2006 and the Company changed its name to Geneva Gold Corp. On March 1, 2007, the Company (Geneva Gold Corp.) merged with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Geneva Resources, Inc., pursuant to Articles of Merger that the Company filed with the Nevada Secretary of State. This merger became effective March 1, 2007 and the Company changed its name to Geneva Resources, Inc. On February 10, 2011 the Company (Geneva Resources Inc.) merged with its newly incorporated wholly-owned subsidiary, Sono Resources, Inc., pursuant to Articles of Merger that the Company filed with the Nevada Secretary of State. This merger became effective March 11, 2011 and the Company changed its name to Sono Resources, Inc. The Company is an exploration stage enterprise, as defined in FASB ASC 915 “Development Stage Entities.”

During 2007, the Company entered the business of exploration of precious metals with a focus on the exploration and development of gold deposits in North America and Internationally. During this period the Company entered into Option Agreements to obtain mineral leases in Canada, Panama, Peru and Nigeria. Subsequent to the period ended February 28, 2011, the Company entered into an Option Agreement to acquire mineral leases in Botswana, Africa.

The Company has a fiscal year of May 31. On May 5, 2006, the Company completed a forward stock split by the issuance of 42 new shares for each 1 outstanding share of the Company’s common stock. On October 13, 2006, the Company completed a forward stock split by the issuance of 4 new shares for each 1 outstanding share of the Company’s stock. On June 18, 2010, the Company completed a reverse stock split by the issuance of 1 new share for each 4 outstanding shares of the Company’s stock.

All references in these financial statements to number of common shares, price per share and weighted average number of common shares outstanding prior to the 42:1 forward split and the 4:1 forward split and the 1:4 to reverse split have been adjusted to reflect these stock splits on a retroactive basis, unless otherwise noted.

Going concern
 
To date the Company has generated minimal revenues from its business operations and has incurred operating losses since inception of $8,361,464.  As at February 28, 2011, the Company has a working capital deficit of $499,566.  The Company requires additional funding to meet its ongoing obligations and to fund anticipated operating losses.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund its initial business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations.  Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company intends to continue to fund its mineral exploration business by way of private placements and advances from related parties as may be required. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

Unaudited Financial Statements
 
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  They do not include all information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  However, except as disclosed herein, there have been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2010 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with those financial statements included in the Form 10-K. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the nine months ended February 28, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending May 31, 2011.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation
 
These financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions
 
Preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain 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 expenses during the period.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Mineral Property Expenditures
 
The Company is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties.

Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized in accordance with FASB ASC 930-805, “Extractive Activities-Mining,” when management has determined that probable future benefits consisting of a contribution to future cash inflows have been identified and adequate financial resources are available or are expected to be available as required to meet the terms of property acquisition and budgeted exploration and development expenditures.  Mineral property acquisition costs are expensed as incurred if the criteria for capitalization are not met.  In the event that mineral property acquisition costs are paid with Company shares, those shares are recorded at the estimated fair value at the time the shares are due in accordance with the terms of the property agreements.

Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred.

When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves and pre-feasibility, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized.

Estimated future removal and site restoration costs, when determinable are provided over the life of proven reserves on a units-of-production basis.  Costs, which include production equipment removal and environmental remediation, are estimated each period by management based on current regulations, actual expenses incurred, and technology and industry standards.  Any charge is included in exploration expense or the provision for depletion and depreciation during the period and the actual restoration expenditures are charged to the accumulated provision amounts as incurred.

As of the date of these financial statements, the Company has incurred only property option payments and exploration costs which have been expensed.

To date the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties.

Asset Retirement Obligations
 
In accordance with accounting standards for asset retirement obligations (ASC 410), the Company records the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation (ARO) when there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset and the liability can be reasonably estimated. No ARO’s associated with legal obligations to retire mineral properties have been recognized, as indeterminate settlement dates for the asset retirements prevent estimation of the fair value of the associated ARO. The Company performs periodic reviews of its mineral properties for any changes in facts and circumstances that might require recognition of a retirement obligation.

Cash and cash equivalents
 
Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Income Taxes
 
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment.  At February 28, 2011, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards, however, due to the uncertainty of realization, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets resulting from these loss carryforwards.

Available For Sale Securities
 
The Company’s holdings in marketable securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value. The carrying value of marketable securities is reviewed each reporting period for declines in value that are considered to be other-than temporary and, if appropriate, the investments are written down to their estimated fair value. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary on available for sale securities are included in the Company’s statements of operations. Unrealized gains and unrealized losses deemed temporary are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

As of February 28, 2011, the Company has no shares classified as available for sale securities.  During the year ended May 31, 2010 the Company sold all of the shares previously classified as available for sale for net proceeds to the Company of $54,810 and realized a loss of $215,190.

Net Income (Loss) per Share
 
The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
 
Foreign Currency Translation
 
The financial statements are presented in United States dollars. In accordance with FASB ASC 830-10, “Foreign Currency Matters,” foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date.  Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the period.  Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.  At February 28, 2011, the Company has not recorded any translation adjustments into stockholders’ equity.

Stock-based Compensation
 
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with the conclusions reached by the FASB ASC 505-50.  Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.  The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by FASB ASC 505-50.

NOTE 3 –MINERAL EXPLORATION PROPERTIES

(a) Vilcoro Gold Property
 
On February 23, 2007, the Company entered into a Property Option Agreement with St. Elias Mines Ltd., (“St. Elias”) a publicly traded company on the TSX-V exchange, to acquire not less than an undivided 66% legal, beneficial and registerable interest in certain mining leases in Peru comprised of approximately 600 hectares in Peru.

On December 1, 2007, the Company entered into an extension agreement with St. Elias (the “December Extension Agreement”). The December Extension Agreement (i) acknowledges that in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Property Option Agreement, the Company must incur and pay exploration expenditures of not less than $500,000 prior to January 17, 2008, and (ii) provides an extension until March 31, 2008 to incur and pay such Exploration Expenditures. On June 4, 2008, an indefinite extension was granted by St. Elias to pay such Exploration Expenditures, based on the Operator’s work on schedule.

Under the terms of the Property Option Agreement, and in order to exercise its Option to acquire the properties, the Company was required to make the following non-refundable cash payments to St. Elias totaling $350,000 in the following manner:

1.  
Payment of $50,000 in cash (paid).
2.  
The second payment of $100,000 in cash and issuance of 12,500 shares of the Company’s common stock were due on or before the twelve month anniversary of the signing of the Property Option Agreement (paid and issued).
3.  
The third payment of $200,000 in cash was due on or before the twenty fourth month anniversary of the signing of the Property Option Agreement.

The Company was also required to incur costs totaling $2,500,000 as follows:

1.  
expenditures of $500,000 were to be incurred on or before the twelve month anniversary (subsequently indefinitely extended as described above) of the signing of the Property Option Agreement. ($551,000 was incurred from the inception of the agreement through May 31, 2009;
2.  
expenditures of $750,000 were to be incurred on or before the twenty-fourth-month anniversary (subsequently indefinitely extended as described above) of the signing of the Property Option Agreement; and
3.  
expenditures of $1,250,000 were to be incurred on or before the thirty-sixth-month anniversary (subsequently indefinitely extended as described above) of the signing of the Property Option Agreement.

Also under the terms of the Property Option Agreement, St. Elias would be the operator of the properties and would receive an 8% operator fee on all exploration expenditures.  Once the Company exercised the Option defined above, the Company agreed to pay 100% of all ongoing exploration, development and production costs until commercial production and the Company had the right to receive 100% of any cash flow from commercial production of the properties until it had recouped its production costs, after which the cash flow would be allocated 66% to the Company and 34% to St. Elias.

On November 10, 2008, the Company commenced legal proceedings in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, Canada against each of St. Elias and John Brophy P. Geol.  The Company sought rescission of the Property Option Agreement and the return of all funds and shares advanced by the Company to St. Elias.  The Company alleged that St. Elias failed to properly discharge its duty as an operator of the Vilcoro Property and also alleged that each of St. Elias and John Brophy failed to provide the Company complete and accurate information relating to the ownership of the Vilcoro Property and to the ownership of the adjacent property, including failing to disclose that John Brophy and his wife had an interest in the Vilcoro Property and

the adjacent property.  The Company also alleged that St. Elias used some of the exploration funds provided by the Company to fund the exploration of the adjoining property.

A statement of Defense was filed by St. Elias and John Brophy on December 23, 2008, denying the majority of the allegations made by the Company. In addition St. Elias and John Brophy also filed a counter claim against the Company for abuse of process and punitive damages.

On May 5, 2010, the Company entered into a mutual release with St. Elias pursuant to which St. Elias and the Company agreed to release one another from all causes of action, claims and demands of any nature of kind whatsoever arising out of or in any way related to any of the subject matter of the Statement of Claim. As part of the mutual release St. Elias agreed to return the 12,500 shares of common stock previously issued to the Company.  The shares of the Company’s common stock were returned to treasury and cancelled on July 21, 2010.  Accordingly, during the year ended May 31, 2010, the related acquisition costs totaling $165,010 were written off to loss on option deposit. On July 12, 2010, the 12,500 shares were returned to treasury with an estimated fair value of $2,000 which was recorded as legal settlement during the period.

During fiscal 2009, the Company recorded a mineral property recovery of $50,000 in connection with the return of funds originally paid into trust to fund exploration activities.

During 2007, certain disputes arose between the Company and Petaquilla which were resolved during 2008 by way of a settlement agreement (the “Settlement”), mutual release and the ultimate termination of the original option agreement.  Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement: (i) Petaquilla issued 100,000 shares of its common  stock to the Company, subject to pooling and release in four equal monthly tranches commencing no later than December 31, 2008 and certain other conditions, (ii) the 1,000,000 shares of the restricted common stock previously issued by the Company to Petaquilla were returned to the Company; and (iii) the $100,000 previously paid by the Company in order to exercise the initial portion of the Option were returned to the Company.

As of May 31, 2008, the Company had received $100,000 and the return of the 1,000,000 restricted shares of the Company's common stock with an estimated fair value of $5,440,000. In addition, the Company recorded the 100,000 common shares of Petaquilla, with an estimated fair value of $270,000, as accounts receivable as of May 31, 2008.  The total proceeds of $5,810,000 was included in amounts recorded as gain on settlements during 2008.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
 
June 2010 Reverse Stock Split
 
On February 1, 2010, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a reverse stock split of one for every four (1:4) of our total issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split was effectuated based on market conditions and upon a determination by our Board of Directors that the Reverse Stock Split was in our best interests and those of the shareholders. Certain factors were discussed among the members of the Board of Directors concerning the need for the Reverse Stock Split, including: (i) current trading price of or shares of common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board and potential to increase the marketability and liquidity of our common stock; (ii) possible reluctance of brokerage firms and institutional investors to recommend lower-priced stocks to their clients or to hold in their own portfolios; and (iii) desire to meet future requirements of per-share price and net tangible assets and shareholders’ equity relating to admission for trading on other markets.
 
The Reverse Stock Split was effectuated on June 18, 2010 upon filing the appropriate documentation with FINRA. The Reverse Stock Split decreased our total issued and outstanding shares of common stock from 104,743,062 to 26,185,778 shares of common stock. The common stock will continue to be $0.001 par value.
 
Our trading symbol on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board remains “GVRS:OB”.
 
Certificate of Change
 
On June 18, 2010, we filed with the Nevada Secretary of State a certificate of change to the Articles of Incorporation to decrease our authorized capital structure commensurate with the decrease of our shares pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split. Therefore, as of the date of this Quarterly Report, our authorized capital structure has been decreased from 200,000,000 shares of common stock to 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001.

Under the terms of the Vilcoro Option Agreement and in order to exercise the Vilcoro Option, we were required to make the following non-refundable cash payments to St. Elias aggregating $350,000 as follows: (i) $50,000 within five business days from the execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement, which as of the date of this Quarterly Report, was paid; (ii) $100,000 due on or before the 12-month anniversary of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement (which was paid); and (iii) $200,000 due on or before the 24-month anniversary of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement.

In accordance with the terms and provisions of the Vilcoro Option Agreement, we were further required to: (i) issue to St. Elias 12,500 shares of our restricted common stock on or before the 12-month anniversary of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement (which as of the date of this Quarterly Report have been issued); and (ii) incur costs totaling $2,5000,000 as follows: (a) expenditures of $500,000 were to be incurred on or before the 12-month anniversary of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement of which $551,000 had been advanced from inception of the agreement until the date of this Quarterly Report (which date was subsequently extended indefinitely based on the June 2008 Extension Agreement); (b) second expenditure of $750,000 was to be incurred on or before the 24-month anniversary extended of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement; and (iii) third expenditure of $1,250,000 was to be incurred on or before the 36-month anniversary extended of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement.

Under further terms of the Vilcoro Option Agreement: (i) St. Elias would have been the operator (the “Operator”) of the Vilcoro Properties and would have received an 8% operator fee on all exploration expenditures; (ii) once we exercised the Vilcoro Option, we agreed to pay 100% of all on-going exploration, development and production costs until commercial production (the “Production Costs”); and (iii) we would have had the right to receive 100% of any cash flow from commercial production of the Vilcoro Properties until we recouped the Production Costs after which the cash flow would have been allocated 66% to us and 34% to St. Elias.
 
On November 6, 2008, we filed a Writ of Summons and Statement of Claim (collectively, the “Statement of Claim”) against St. Elias and John A. Brophy (“Brophy”) in the Supreme Court of British Columbia. The Statement of Claim related to the Property Option Agreement.
 
 
18

 
 
The Statement of Claim alleged the following claims:  (i) in tort against Brophy alleging  non-disclosure of material facts and complete and accurate information relating to the  ownership of the Vilcoro  Property and to the  ownership of the adjacent property, including failing to disclose that Brophy and his wife had an interest in the Vilcoro Property and the adjacent property, which entitled us to rescind the  Property  Option  Agreement  and return of an aggregate of $150,000 paid to St. Elias under the Property Option Agreement, an aggregate of $486,000 paid in exploration  expenditures, and 12,500 shares of our common stock issued to St. Elias; (ii) breach of the Property Option Agreement relating to the failure by St. Elias to provide to us all data and information in its possession or under its control relating to St. Elias' exploration activities on and in the vicinity of the Vilcoro Properties; and (iii) breach of the Technical Services Agreement by failure of St. Elias to timely prepare and provide a budget or work programs or to expeditiously advance the work on the Vilcoro Properties and diversion by St. Elias of money, time and  resources.
 
On December 23, 2008, a statement of defense was filed by St. Elias and Brophy denying the majority of the allegations made by us in our Statement of Claim. In addition, St. Elias and Brophy also filed a counter claim against us for abuse of process and punitive damages.
 
We sought to rescind the Property Option Agreement and the Technical Services Agreement and damages associated with tortious misrepresentation and breach, punitive or exemplary damages.
 
On May 5, 2010, we entered into a mutual release with St. Elias (the “Mutual Release”) pursuant to which we and St. Elias agreed to release one another from all causes of action, claims and demands of any nature or kind whatsoever arising out of or in any way related to any of the subject matter of the Statement of Claim. On July 12, 2010, the 12,500 common stock shares issued to Elias previously were returned to treasury.
 
Amelia and San Martin

As of November 30, 2009, we entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with Glenn Patrick Schmitz (the “Optionor”), in connection with the proposed acquisition of an 80% interest in thirty-nine mineral concessions located near Domyeko in Chile. In accordance with the terms and provisions of the Letter Agreement: (i) we paid the Optionor $5,000 upon execution of the Letter Agreement; (ii) we were to issue to the Optionor an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of our restricted common stock as follows: (a) 500,000 shares as the initial tranche within thirty days of execution of a formal and  definitive agreement (the “Formal Agreement”), (b) 1,000,000 shares upon the expiration of the first twelve month period after execution of the Formal Agreement, and (c) 500,000 shares upon the expiration of the second twelve month period after execution of the Formal Agreement; (iii) we were to pay the Optionor further amounts as follows: (a) $300,000 prior to the expiration of the first twelve month period after execution of the Formal Agreement, (b) an amount to be paid by us as exploration expenditures prior to expiration of the second twelve month period after execution of the Formal Agreement, which amount was to be solely and exclusively determined by us based on the first year term drilling and exploration results, and (c) an amount to be paid by us as exploration expenditures prior to expiration of the third twelve month period after execution of the Formal Agreement, which amount was to be solely and exclusively determined by us based on the second year term drilling and exploration results.
 
 
19

 

On November 30, 2009, we engaged in due diligence. As of that date, we have decided not to proceed with this proposed acquisition and made a request for the return of the $5,000. As of May 31, 2010, the $5,000 was written off to mineral property expenditures based on uncertainty as to collection.

Botswana Share Purchase Agreement

Subsequent to the period on April 1, 2011, the Company entered into a formal Share Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Tignish (PTY) Ltd., a Botswana company (the “Vendor”), to purchase 95 percent of the issued and outstanding shares (the “Shares”) of Bonnyridge (PTY) Ltd., also a Botswana company (“Bonnyridge”), which is the legal and beneficial owner of three mineral license blocks located in Northwestern Botswana, Africa (the “Property”).

In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, and in order to purchase the Shares, the Company is required to provide the Vendor with: (i) an initial cash payment of USD$200,000 by April 20, 2011; (ii) a further cash payment of USD$100,000 on or before closing; and (iii) 6,500,000 restricted common shares of the Company at closing; and which closing must presently occur prior to April 29, 2011 unless otherwise mutually determined.

The Company is informed that, in order to maintain its Property interests, Bonnyridge continues to be obligated to provide the Vendor with USD$900,000 payable in three installments of USD$300,000 per year over a three-year period and, in addition, carry out an exploration program on the 2,965.6 square km of mineral rights covering the Property with an expenditure commitment over the three-year period of approximately USD$1,750,000.

PROPOSED FUTURE BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Our current strategy is to complete further acquisition of other mineral property opportunities which fall within the criteria of providing a geological basis for development of mining initiatives that can provide near term revenue potential and production cash flows to create expanding reserves. We anticipate that our ongoing efforts, subject to adequate funding being available, will continue to be focused on successfully concluding negotiations for additional interests in mineral properties. We plan to build a strategic base of producing mineral properties.

Our ability to continue to complete planned exploration activities and expand acquisitions and explore mining opportunities is dependent on adequate capital resources being available and further sources of debt and equity being obtained, however, there can be no assurance that further sources of debt or equity will be available or on acceptable terms.

Our net loss during the nine month period ended February 28, 2011 was $202,854 compared to a net loss during the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 of $998,433  (a decrease in net loss of $795,579). During the nine month periods ended February 28, 2011 and February 28, 2010, respectively, we did not generate any revenue.

During the nine month period ended February 28, 2011, we incurred general and administrative expenses in the aggregate amount of $163,620 compared to $103,798 incurred during the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 (an increase of $59,822). General and administrative expenses incurred during the nine month period ended February 28, 2011 consisted of: (i) office and general of $28,097 (2010: $14,336); (ii) consulting fees of $63,000 (2010: $28,050);  (iii) management fees of $35,000 (2010: $-0-); (iv) and  professional fees of $37,523 (2010: $61,412). The increase in general and administrative expenses incurred during the nine month period ended February 28, 2011 compared to the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 resulted primarily from an increase in consulting fees of $34,950 and management fees of $35,000. General and administrative expenses generally include corporate overhead, financial and administrative contracted services, marketing, management fees and consulting costs.

The incurrence of general and administrative expenses resulted in a net operating loss of ($163,620) during the nine month period ended February 28, 2011 compared to a net operating loss of ($103,798) during the nine month period ended February 28, 2010.

During the nine month period ended February 28, 2011, we recorded total other expense in the amount of $39,234, which represents interest expense and the net legal settlements entered into during the period compared to total other expense of $894,635 recorded during the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 which represents $679,445 in interest expense and $215,190 in loss on disposal of available for sale of securities.

The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 26,173,278 at February 28, 2011 compared to 9,634,216 at February 28, 2010.
 
Three Month Period Ended February 28, 2011 Compared to Three Month Period Ended February 28, 2010.
 
Our net loss during the three month period ended February 28, 2011 was approximately ($59,155) compared to a net loss of ($857,350) for the three month period ended February 28, 2010 (a decrease of $798,195).

During the three month period ended February 28, 2011 and February 28, 2010, respectively, we did not generate any revenue. During the three month period ended February 28, 2011, we incurred general and administrative expenses in the aggregate amount of $58,292 compared to $50,098 incurred during the three month period ended February 28, 2010 (an increase of $8,194). The operating expenses incurred during the three month period ended February 28, 2011 consisted of: (i) office and general of $17,899 (2010: $8,376); (ii) consulting fees of $21,000 (2010: $6,750); and (iii) professional fees of $19,393 (2010: $34,972). The increase in general and administrative expenses incurred during the three month period ended February 28, 2011 compared to the three month period ended February 28, 2010 resulted primarily from an increase in consulting fees  based upon the increased activities in reviewing potential acquisition and development programs for the Company.

The incurrence of general and administrative expenses resulted in a net operating loss of ($58,292) during the three month period ended February 28, 2011 compared to a net operating loss of ($50,098) during the three month period ended February 28, 2010. Net loss was increased by the recording of interest expense of $863 (2010: $592,062).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of February 28, 2011

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.

At February 28, 2011, our current assets were $9,689 and our current liabilities were $509,255, resulting in a working capital deficit of ($499,566). At February 28, 2011, our total assets were $32,189 compared to total assets of $2,141 as of May 31, 2010. Total assets at February 28, 2011 consisted of $9,689 in cash and $22,500 in deposit. At February 28, 2011, our current liabilities were $509,255 compared to current liabilities of $378,087 as of May 31, 2010. Our liabilities consisted of $509,255 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and $103,734 in shareholders loans and accrued interest. The increase in liabilities was primarily due to the increase in accounts payables and shareholder loans.

Stockholders’ deficit decreased from ($375,946) as of May 31, 2010 to ($580,800) as of February 28, 2011.
 
 We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities. For the nine month period ended February 28, 2011, net cash flow used in operating activities was $($94,952) compared to net cash flow used in operating activities of ($101,131) for the nine  month period ended February 28, 2010. Net cash flow used in operating activities during the nine month period ended February 28, 2011 consisted primarily of a net loss of ($202,854) adjusted by $2,000 for the legal settlements pertaining to the return of the 12,500 shares of common stock by St. Elias. Net cash flow used in operating activities was further changed by an increase of $1,234 in accrued interest on shareholders’ loans, $22,500 in deposit and $131,168 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

During the nine month periods ended February 28, 2011 and February 28, 2010 net cash flow provided from investing activities was $-0- and $54,810, respectively.

During the nine month periods ended February 28, 2011 and February 28, 2010, net cash flow provided from financing activities was $102,500 and $50,904, respectively.
 
 
23

 

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING

Existing working capital, further advances and possible debt instruments, anticipated warrant exercises, further private placements, and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next three months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt securities.

Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.
 
MATERIAL COMMITMENTS
 
As of the date of this Quarterly Report and other than as disclosed below, we do not have any material commitments for fiscal year 2011.
 
Shareholder Loan

On November 14, 2006, one of our shareholders advanced to us an aggregate of $100,000 regarding the Petaquilla Option Agreement. Additional advances of $303,500, $795,000 and $540,000 were received during fiscal years ended May 31, 2007, May 31, 2008 and May 31, 2009, respectively, under the same terms and conditions. Total accrued interest of $249,400 as of May 31, 2009 was recorded. During the current period to December 31, 2009, an additional $25,902 was advanced by the same shareholder, and a total of $87,384 of accrued interest was recorded. A total of $325,000 of accrued interest was repaid leaving an amount due and owing as of December 1, 2009 of $1,776,186.

Effective December 7, 2009, our Board of Directors authorized the settlement of the $1,776,186 debt.  This debt was evidenced by a demand convertible promissory note dated December 1, 2009 in the principal of $1,776,186 issued to the above shareholder.  In accordance with the terms and provisions of the promissory note, in the event we were unable to repay the debt, the debt could be satisfied by way of conversion of the debt into shares of our restricted common stock at $0.16 per share. Subsequently the shareholder assigned a proportionate right of its title and interest in and to the debt and the convertible promissory note to certain assignees.  On December 7, 2009, we received notices of conversion from the respective assignees, pursuant to which our Board of Directors authorized the issuance of an aggregate of 14,801,562 shares of our common stock proportionately to the Assignees in settlement of the $1,776,186 at the rate of $0.16 per share. In connection with the conversion of the promissory note, we recognized a beneficial conversion feature of $592,062 which was charged to Additional Paid-in Capital.

During the period ended February 28, 2011 two shareholders advanced the Company $102,500.  These amounts were unsecured, bear interest at 5% per annum and have a two year repayment term.  Interest and principal are due at the end of the term of the loan. As of February 28, 2011, there was $103,734 in principal and accrued interest due to shareholders.

Botswana Share Purchase Agreement

Subsequent to the period on April 1, 2011, the Company entered into a formal Share Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Tignish (PTY) Ltd., a Botswana company (the “Vendor”), to purchase 95 percent of the issued and outstanding shares (the “Shares”) of Bonnyridge (PTY) Ltd., also a Botswana company (“Bonnyridge”), which is the legal and beneficial owner of three mineral license blocks located in Northwestern Botswana, Africa (the “Property”).

In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, and in order to purchase the Shares, the Company is required to provide the Vendor with: (i) an initial cash payment of USD$200,000 by April 20, 2011 (ii) a further cash payment of USD$100,000 on or before closing; and (iii) 6,500,000 restricted common shares of the Company at closing; and which closing must presently occur prior to April 29, 2011 unless otherwise mutually determined.

The Company is informed that, in order to maintain its Property interests, Bonnyridge continues to be obligated to provide the Vendor with USD$900,000 payable in three installments of USD$300,000 per year over a three-year period and, in addition, carry out an exploration program on the 2,965.6 square km of mineral rights covering the Property with an expenditure commitment over the three-year period of approximately USD$1,750,000.

PURCHASE OF SIGNIFICANT EQUIPMENT

We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next twelve months.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
 
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows due to adverse changes in foreign currency and interest rates. 
 
 
25

 
 
EXCHANGE RATE
 
Our reporting currency is United States Dollars (“USD”).  Since we acquire properties outside of the United States, the fluctuation of exchange rates may have positive or negative impacts on our results of operations. However, any potential revenue and expenses will be denominated in U.S. Dollars, and the net income effect of appreciation and devaluation of the currency against the U.S. Dollar would be limited to our costs of acquisition of property.
 
INTEREST RATE
 
Interest rates in the United States are generally controlled. Any potential future loans will relate mainly to acquisition of properties and will be mainly short-term. However our debt may be likely to rise in connection with expansion and if interest rates were to rise at the same time, this could have a significant impact on our operating and financing activities. We have not entered into derivative contracts to hedge existing risks for speculative purposes.
 
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the nine month period ended February 28, 2011, which is the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report, our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). As of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report, based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information that we must disclose in our reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the “Exchange Act”, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis, and that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2011. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.

 
26

 

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective at the “reasonable assurance” level.
 
Changes in Internal Controls

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during this quarterly period that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Board of Directors has established an audit committee. The members of the audit committee are Mr. William Thomas and Mr. Angelo Viard. One of the two members of the audit committee is “independent” within the meaning of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act.  The audit committee was organized on April 25, 2006 and operates under a written charter adopted by our Board of Directors.

The audit committee has reviewed and discussed with management our reviewed financial statements as of and for the nine month period ended February 28, 2011. The audit committee has received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from De Joya Griffith & Company, LLC required by PCOAB Rule 3526, Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence.

Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the audit committee has recommended to the Board of Directors that the reviewed financial statements referred to above be included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine month period ended February 28, 2011 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On October 26, 2009, Stacey Kivel, former president of the Company filed a lawsuit of wrongful dismissal in the State of Nevada. During July 2007, we terminated the employment of Stacey Kivel, our then President, for cause. Subsequently, Ms. Kivel made certain false allegations against us. We refuted her allegations and believed termination was justified. On October 13, 2010 all parties agreed to a settlement to which the Company agreed to pay Ms. Kivel, $40,000 (paid October 27, 2010).
 
 
27

 
 
MUTUAL RELEASE
 
On May 5, 2010, we entered into that certain mutual release with St. Elias (the “Mutual Release”) and all related parties pursuant to which we and St. Elias agreed to release one another from all causes of action, claims and demands of any nature or kind whatsoever arising out of or in any way related to any of the subject matter of the Statement of Claim. On July 12, 2010, 12,500 common stock shares were returned treasury thus reducing our total issued and outstanding to 26,173,278 shares of common stock.
 
Our shares of common stock are registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We, therefore, file annual and other reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. On November 29, 2007, we received a cease trade order (the “Cease Trade Order”) from the British Columbia Securities Commission (the “BCSC”), which is limited to the Province of British Columbia, for not filing a technical report under Canadian National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) respecting certain previous disclosure regarding certain of our material property interests. The Cease Trade Order was originally issued as a result of the BCSC having reviewed the technical and scientific disclosure issued by us relating to our mineral exploration properties and having determined that the disclosure made by us required us to draft and file with the BCSC a National Instrument 43-101 technical report on our then Nigerian property. As a consequence of the Cease Trade Order, we engaged legal counsel in connection with this matter in order to determine the exact manner in which we would be able to satisfy the requirements of NI 43-101, as required by the parameters as set forth for foreign issuers under Canadian National Instrument 71-102 Continuous Disclosure and Other Exemptions relating to Foreign Issuers.
 
On approximately March 10, 2010, we received an order for production from the BCSC with regards to production of certain documents under Section 141 of the Securities of, RSBC 1996, c. 418. We responded fully to the BCSC and submitted all requested documentation.
 
On May 19, 2010, we issued a news release retracting our previous disclosure on the Nigerian properties explaining our failure to file the technical report and updating and correcting our technical disclosure on our then Vilcoro property in Peru. In addition, we announced in a news release dated May 25, 2010 and Current Report on Form 8-K that we had settled the legal proceedings relating to the Vilcoro property.
 
The BCSC revoked the Cease Trade Order and, therefore, effective opening of trading on May 31, 2010. Trading in our shares of common stock in the Province of British Columbia resumed.
 
As of the date of this Quarterly Report, no director, officer or affiliate is (i) a party adverse to us in any legal proceeding, or (ii) has an adverse interest to us in any legal proceedings. Management is not aware of any other legal proceedings pending or that have been threatened against us or our properties.
