ITEM 1.      BUSINESS
 
Description of Business
 
Iron Mining Group, Inc. (“IMG” or the “Company”) was organized on September 17, 2007, under the laws of the State of Florida.  IMG is a global iron ore mining company with its initial focus in Latin America. The Company participates in the global iron ore market through the acquisition and development of strategic properties and reserve assets, with current iron ore operations in Chile and new operations in Mexico. The Company’s common shares are currently quoted on the OTC Markets OTCQB under the symbol “IRNN.”
 
The Company has entered this marketplace at a time when the world’s largest iron ore consumer, China, seeks to alter the status quo by shifting power away from the traditional iron ore producers.  Leading the way in the iron ore markets, China has continued to emerge as a dominant force with overwhelming demand for this steel-making raw material.  IMG is positioned to emerge as a key partner and solution provider to Chinese steel groups, having assembled a team of senior steel industry professionals in China to continue developing its relationships with buyers and investment partners in this critical market.  The Company has signed two multi-year, multi-billion dollar iron ore off-take agreements with Tianjin Bohai Steel Group, China’s 7th largest consolidated steel group, and Shandong Wanbao Group Co., Ltd., a leading Chinese import company (each a “Buyer” and collectively, the “Buyers”).  Collectively, the Buyers have agreed to purchase up to 15,000,000 metric tons of iron ore per year for five or more years.  These direct iron ore contracts represent a significant source of power for the Company as it seeks to complete acquisition and joint venture transactions throughout Latin America.

IMG is working diligently to deliver its first shipment of iron ore to its Chinese Buyers.  The Company seeks to accomplish this business objective as well as hopes to elevate the listing of its common stock to a senior exchange, such as the NYSE Amex Equities or NASDAQ Capital Market in the near future.

Iron Ore Cluster Growth Plan
 
Due to the enormous volumes of material involved in the successful mining and exportation of iron ore, logistics and infrastructure play an essential role in determining the success of any project or company. As IMG has advanced in Chile and Mexico, the importance of existing infrastructure and the ability to develop and expand infrastructure capacity in the future has shown to be of paramount importance. Very simply, logistics can make or break the success of any mining project. Accordingly, the Company plans to identify, acquire and develop iron ore properties within proximity to existing and future port sites such that, at all times, production is sufficient to maximize the available regional export capacity. The Company has named this plan the Iron Ore Cluster Development & Expansion Plan, with each of these regional groups of mines hereafter referred to as a “cluster.” Cluster locations shall be selected based on a number of strategic factors, such as projected port growth, regional political landscape, community involvement and temperament, and economic growth forecasts, to name a few. IMG is actively developing four (4) Iron Ore Clusters in Mexico and three (3) in Chile, with each Cluster having at least one current port and one current IMG portfolio or target mining project. In Mexico, IMG is developing: (i) Sonora Iron Ore Cluster; (ii) Sinaloa Iron Ore Cluster; (iii) Manzanillo Iron Ore Cluster; and (iv) Lazaro Cardenas Iron Ore Cluster. In Chile, IMG is developing: (i) Antofogasta Iron Ore Cluster; (ii) Atacama Iron Ore Cluster; and (iii) Coquimbo Iron Ore Cluster.
 
Minera Iron Mining Group Chile, Ltda.

On November 19, 2010, the Company completed a performance-based stock acquisition of 100% of the stock of CIM Mineral Investors, S.A. which is the 99.9% owner of Minera Iron Mining Group Chile, Ltda. (“IMG Chile”, formerly Chile Inversiones de Minerales, Ltda.), a Chilean iron ore mining company with experienced management and a substantial portfolio of iron ore deposits in Chile.  IMG Chile currently holds the mineral rights to three iron ore properties in the Chile’s II, III & IV Regions.  The Company has named these properties the “Tocopilla Iron Sands Mine” (Region II), “Atacama Desert Iron Ore Mine” (Region III), and the “La Serena Iron Sands Mine” (Region IV), respectively.  IMG Chile has established agreements to utilize regional ports adjacent to each project to load and deliver ships of 30,000 to 50,000 metric tons capacity.  IMG Chile has signed additional investment letters of intent to acquire additional iron ore deposits while it increases its shipping logistics infrastructure with an aggressive port expansion plan throughout the country.

Chile Cluster Growth Plan:  In Chile, IMG is focusing on the development of mining projects for its own portfolio and has laid out a plan aimed at achieving both limited production & export in the short term and also significant reserve and production growth over the long term, with these opportunities falling into two distinctly different areas: (i) desert iron sands and bedrock projects, of which it has one 18,000 acre project and several target opportunities under evaluation; and (ii) ocean iron sands projects, of which it has two beachfront projects within its portfolio with plans to secure numerous additional marine concessions on Chile’s northern coast.
 
 
1

 

(i)  
Desert iron sands projects: This project type is advantageous in its reduced timeline for obtaining all necessary governmental project commercialization approvals due to remoteness from populated areas and thus its limited environmental impact.   Further, IMG’s largest customer, Tianjin Bohai Steel Group has expressed tremendous interest in the iron ore from projects of this type, pledging significant financial support in their development and heightening IMG’s near-term focus in this area.  IMG is currently completing final drilling and project engineering studies ahead of planned mining beginning in the third quarter of 2011, while also seeking to acquire additional regional desert concessions; and

(ii)  
Ocean iron sands projects: IMG is currently navigating the 12-15 month marine concession and ocean environmental approval application process before accessing the vast, rich iron ore deposits believed to be located along the ocean floor along a tectonic fault line and volcanic hotbed immediately off Chile’s coast.  Applications are in process for each of the Company’s two current coastal projects.  There is precedent in place for obtaining these permits, as they have historically been granted to gold mining operations, however not yet for iron ore.  IMG is actively applying for additional marine concessions in the regions of its existing beach iron sands projects and aims to extend its existing beach concessions further inland by securing additional existing but unexploited adjacent concessions.

Atacama Iron Ore Cluster

Port of Caldera: This medium size port located in Chile’s third region, Atacama, is privately owned and under contract for use by IMG Chile.  Due to the size of the port and the depth of the channel, the maximum size vessel that Caldera can accommodate is a “Handymax” or 50,000 metric ton vessel.  Based on current usage, the port can accommodate an additional five (5) 50,000 metric ton ships (Handymaxes) per month for IMG Chile (totaling 250,000 metric tons per month).

Port of Barquito: This medium size port located in Chile’s third region, Atacama, is privately owned and currently not being utilized.  IMG is currently negotiating with the owners to resume operations of this facility for exclusive use by the Company – nominal refurbishment will be required to resume operations.  The size of the port and the depth of the channel sufficient to accommodate a “Handymax” or 50,000 metric ton vessel.  Anticipated loading rates would potentially allow IMG Chile to load five (5) 50,000 metric ton ships per month for (totaling 250,000 metric per month).  IMG Chile aims to have the Barquito Port operational in time for its initial shipments of iron ore from the Atacama Cluster in 2011.

Atacama Desert Iron Ore Mine:  The IMG Chile Atacama Desert Iron Ore Mine is a collection of 40 mineral exploration concessions spanning more than 18,000 acres in the “iron belt” of Chile’s Atacama Desert.  Within the property, iron ore is known to be distributed across three different physical forms, which, in order of ease of exploitation, are (i) iron sands, (ii) crushed surface “granza” rocks and (iii) bedrock “vein” formations.  We are currently beginning a strategic exploration and drilling campaign as we prepare to begin iron sands production in 2011.  This property is thought, based on preliminary geological estimates, to contain approximately 40 million metric tons of high-grade recoverable “≥64.5% Fe” iron ore within the surface “iron sands.”  Furthermore, based on initial magnetic imaging surveys, it is thought that the unexplored mountainous bedrock formations within the property contain substantial quantities of recoverable iron ore.

The Company is currently beginning a strategic exploration and drilling campaign on the concessions already in its portfolio as it prepares to begin iron sands production in 2011.  IMG will begin by launching a pilot sands separation plant in the second half of 2011, with production capacity of 5,000 metric tons per month.  The Company looks to enter full-scale commercial production in 2012, with an anticipated average monthly output of 100,000 metric tons.

Coquimbo Iron Ore Cluster

Port of Coquimbo: This medium size port located in Chile’s fourth region, Coquimbo, is publicly owned and available for use by IMG Chile.  Due to the size of the port and the depth of the channel, the maximum size vessel that Caldera can accommodate is a “Handysize” or 30,000 metric ton vessel.  Based on current usage, the port can accommodate an additional five (5) “Handysize” ships per month for IMG (totaling 150,000 metric tons per month, expandable up to 240,000 metric tons per month based on infrastructure enhancements).

La Serena Iron Sands Mine:  IMG Chile currently owns 50% of the La Serena Iron Sands Mine project along the northern border of Chile’s fourth region, Coquimbo – an increase to 70% ownership is set to occur in the near future based on repayment of pre-existing contingent debt through iron ore revenues.  The project includes an existing mineral exploitation concession and a pending marine exploration concession.  Based on studies completed by the University of Santiago in 2009, the property is believed to contain up to 66,500,000 metric tons of recoverable high-grade iron ore located within the sands along the beach and on the adjacent ocean floor – access to which is subject to the Company receiving approval of a proposed marine concession.  The previous owners of this property were operating without the necessary environmental approvals and were thus prohibited from mining further.  IMG Chile is actively working to restore this project to good standing in the eyes of the local government and community.  Recently amended environmental regulations have dictated that we begin our mining activity on the beach in the area above the high-tide line, with the areas below the high tide line and out onto the ocean floor to follow.  The Company is beginning a strategic exploration and drilling campaign and preparing to begin iron sands production summer 2011.

Antofogasta Iron Ore Cluster

Port of Tocopilla: This medium size port located in Chile’s second region, Antofogasta, is privately owned by Soquimich Comercial S.A. (a Chilean hydrothermal company exporting sodium & potassium nitrate).  Due to the size of the port and the depth of the channel, the maximum vessel that Tocopilla can accommodate is a “Handysize” or 30,000 metric ton vessel.

The port is available for use by IMG and management is currently negotiating a usage agreement.  Based on current usage, the port can accommodate an additional four (4) 30,000 metric ton Handysize ships per month (totaling 120,000 metric tons per month, expandable up to 240,000 metric tons per month based on infrastructure enhancements).

Tocopilla Beach Iron Sands Mine:  IMG Chile is actively working with the local municipalities in the city of Tocopilla in Chile’s second region, Antofogasta, to finalize the details of a proposed project to clean a contaminated beach adjacent to a local mineral port.  The beach in question, which spans two kilometers by one half kilometer, contains rich natural iron ore deposits in its iron sands.  Based on preliminary geological estimates, the property is thought to contain approximately 5,700,000 metric tons of recoverable iron ore within the beach sands and 40,000,000 to 80,000,000 metric tons along adjacent ocean floors soon to be secured with a marine concession.  It is our goal to begin iron ore production by 2012.

Hierro IMG Mexico, S.A.

IMG has come to recognize Mexico as an under-developed and fragmented iron ore market similar to Chile with the potential to achieve greater prominence in the global seaborne trade of iron ore.  The Company has established an operating subsidiary, Hierro IMG Mexico, S.A. de CV (“IMG Mexico”) and assembled an on-the-ground management team to lead the day-to-day operations, setting aggressive growth targets for 2011 and afterward.  In Mexico, IMG is seeking opportunities to leverage its direct Chinese iron ore sales agreements, pending equipment financing lines and its status as a publicly listed U.S. company to position itself as a solution provider to undercapitalized and resource-deficient junior miners without viable alternatives for successfully developing and exploiting their iron ore assets.  The Company has established a market entry plan consisting of three types of potential transaction structures:

(i)  
IMG Co-OP Patio:  The first type of structure IMG will pursue in Mexico will be the Cash Co-Op Patio. In these cases, the Company will enter into short and long-term contracts with many junior miners allowing IMG to purchase either finished crushed goods ready for export or raw iron ore material that needs crushing and separation.  The Company will pay cash for this product while having no financial investment or ongoing operating risk. On its patio(s) IMG will have crushing and magnetic separation equipment to produce finished iron ore, which we be loaded onto ships and export to China.  IMG has hired a knowledgeable and experienced Mexican production and quality control manager to run the first patio facility in Manzanillo, Mexico and aims to buy its first iron ore in the second quarter of 2011.

(ii)  
Joint Venture Investment with Exclusive Supply Agreement:  This program is setup such that IMG Mexico will advance machinery and working capital to select junior minors.  Most importantly, within each transaction of this type, the Company will secure exclusive right to 100% of a mine’s production many years into the future for very little upfront cost, allowing IMG to manage its own long-term sales agreements with its Chinese Buyers.  This program allows IMG to quickly recoup its initial investment while getting access to long-term supplies of iron ore at lower fixed prices.  The Company has signed two transactions of this type and has several additional opportunities under negotiation.

(iii)  
Mine Acquisition & Development:  Similar to the Company’s activities in Chile, IMG will take select opportunities to acquire and develop its own iron ore mines in Mexico.  With this type of transaction, the Company will secure long-term reserves and be in direct control of mine operation.  In such transactions, IMG anticipates booking reserves as assets and mining iron ore for a lower cost than in either of the above transaction structures.

Manzanillo Iron Ore Cluster

Port of Manzanillo: This publicly owned port is located in the city of Manzanillo, Colima, Mexico.  Due to the size of the port and the depth of the channel, the maximum size vessel that Manzanillo can accommodate is a 100,000 metric ton “Mini-Cape” vessel.  Based on current usage, the port can accommodate up to three (3) additional Mini-Capes per month for IMG (totaling 300,000 metric tons per month).  Alternatively, IMG can load and export up to five 70,000 metric ton Panamax vessels per month, at a marginally greater cost per metric ton.

Sinaloa Iron Ore Cluster

Port of Topolobampo: This publicly owned port is located in the city of Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico.  Due to the size of the port and the depth of the channel, the maximum size vessel that Manzanillo can accommodate is a 50,000 metric ton “Handymax” vessel.  Based on current usage, the port can accommodate up to ten (10) additional such vessels per month for IMG (totaling 500,000 metric tons per month).  Alternatively, IMG can partially load 70,000 metric ton vessels with 50,000 metric tons and send them south to the port of Manzanillo for further loading.

Sonora Iron Ore Cluster

Port of Guaymas: This publicly owned port is located in the city of Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico.  Due to the size of the port and the depth of the channel, the maximum size vessel that it can accommodate is a 60,000 metric ton “Panamax” vessel.  Based on current usage, the port can accommodate up to six (6) additional such vessels per month for IMG (totaling 300,000 metric tons per month).  Alternatively, IMG can partially load 70,000 metric ton vessels with 50,000 metric tons and send them south to the port of Manzanillo for further loading.

Lazaro Cardenas Iron Ore Cluster

Port of Lazaro Cardenas: This publicly owned port is located in the city of Lazaro Cardenas.  Due to the size of the port and the depth of the channel, the maximum size vessel that it can accommodate is a 50,000 metric ton “Handymax” vessel.  Based on current usage, the port can accommodate up to four (4) additional such vessels per month for IMG (totaling 200,000 metric tons per month).  Alternatively, IMG can partially load 70,000 metric ton vessels with 50,000 metric tons and send them north to the port of Manzanillo for further loading.

Summary

In its four current Mexico Iron Ore Clusters, IMG has begun establish its cash iron ore buying Co-Op patios with supply agreements currently being negotiated at the ports of Topolobampo and Manzanillo.  Further, the Company has already signed Letter of Intent for Investments in iron ore projects in its Sonora and Manzanillo Clusters, establishing a path to long-term, scalable production in these regions.  With the availability of existing port loading capacity in this market and additional projects under negotiation, IMG aims to begin exporting iron ore from Mexico to China in the second quarter of 2011, generating immediate cash-flow, with a steady increase in monthly export volumes and resulting earnings to follow this seminal first shipment.

ITEM 7.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 relating to future events or our future performance. Actual results may materially differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks and uncertainties set forth in this prospectus. Although management believes that the assumptions made and expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, there is no assurance that the underlying assumptions will, in fact, prove to be correct or that actual results will not be different from expectations expressed in this report.

Plan of Operations
 
We progressed tremendously as the Company continues to execute its business plan in 2011, progressing IMG in the Mexican and Chilean iron ore markets, while developing strong iron ore buying relationships. We continue to take incremental steps forward on all of our projects and set a foundation for the next several years while striving to secure additional high-quality iron ore projects in multiple markets on favorable terms. During the past 12 months, we have been able to attract a team of specialized individuals to guide IMG through the remainder of the development stage as we enter to commercial iron ore production and revenue growth. The current plan will be to pursue various property acquisitions aimed at the consistent growth in monthly iron ore exports to China.
 
We believe that we have an enormous opportunity, in both Mexico and Chile, to cement our position as a significant market participant in these next big global iron ore producing countries. In the near term, we remain highly-focused on generating cash flow and subsequent earnings growth through loading and exporting the first shipload of minerals from our Mexico Co-Op and Joint Venture projects. In parallel, over the next twelve 12 months, we plan to continue developing our existing mine development projects in both markets toward commercial production, while also acquiring additional strategic iron ore assets with the consolidated goal of maximizing both earnings per share and the net asset value of our investment portfolio.
 
Currently, due to differences in market regulatory environments and project financing requirements, our portfolio mining projects in Mexico are positioned to reach commercial production within a shorter timeline than those in Chile.  The Chilean market remains an integral component of the long term value proposition of IMG, however based both on the identification of competing opportunities in other markets as well as differences in the regulatory processes in Chile’s market, its emphasis and development timeline have been adjusted accordingly.  We are confident that this modification will prove highly beneficial to the Company and its shareholders.

Within IMG Mexico, we are aiming to develop our four existing iron ore Clusters; Sonora, Sinaloa, Manzanillo and Lazaro Cardenas, to grow monthly production and export rates to utilize all available port loading capacity. We hope to begin exporting iron ore purchased through our Co-Op Patios, initially in Manzanillo and Sinaloa, with similar operations to follow in Sonora and Lazaro Cardenas. Thereafter, we aim to finalize the relevant mining and environmental approvals required to begin mining activities on the properties within our pending joint ventures with a goal of regular monthly production in the second quarter of 2011.

Within IMG Chile, we aim to develop our four existing iron ore Clusters, in order of initial emphasis, Atacama, Coquimbo and Antofagasta, to grow monthly production and export rates such that we utilize all available port loading capacity.  Shortly thereafter we aim to begin the execution of a port development and expansion initiative with financial and technical support pledged by our Chinese partners and additional financing planned to be sourced through our existing and future institutional investment partners. We aim to begin production on our Atacama Desert Iron Ore Mine project with the construction of a pilot mineral separation plant in the second half of 2011.  Assuming successful execution and refinement of this preliminary mining plan, we aim to ramp to full-scale commercial production initially of 100,000 metric tons per month in early 2012. Simultaneously, we aim to continue the application process for obtaining marine concessions for each of our current ocean iron sands mining projects, the La Serena Iron Sands mine in the Coquimbo Cluster and the Tocopilla Iron Sands Mine in the Antofagasta Cluster. Upon the granting of these concessions, estimated to occur in early 2012, we aim to install specialized wet magnetic separation machinery provided by our Chinese partners and begin initial commercial production initially from each of these projects by the end of the third quarter of 2012.

Furthermore, we aim to complete negotiations currently underway with additional mine acquisition and joint venture targets in both Mexico and Chile during the coming months, increasing our portfolio iron ore deposits with the goal of delivering ever-increasing monthly quantities of iron ore against our current maximum monthly buying commitment of 1,500,000 metric tons, established by our initial two Chinese off take agreements.  Finally, we aim to complete comprehensive JORC-compliant geological studies on each of our portfolio properties to prove existing mineral resources and enable us to book the full value of these assets on our Company’s balance sheet.

During the remainder of 2011 and into 2012, we hope to guide Iron Mining Group through the following key milestones:
 
·  
Close equipment credit lines and follow-on equity financing transactions as necessary to achieve established production goals;

·  
Complete exploration and enter exploitation (commercial production) for all current projects with the goal of regular monthly iron ore exports from each of our seven (7) initial iron ore Clusters;

·  
 Make additional strategic acquisitions in both Mexico and Chile to fuel the growth in each of IMG’s seven current Latin American iron ore Clusters.

·  
Submit application for listing of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE Amex Exchange.

We plan to raise a minimum of USD $10 million in new capital into the Company through a Regulation D private placement offering, which we anticipate opening on April 21, 2011. The Company is hopeful to secure additional financial and operational resources from our Chinese steel group and institutional investment partners. Their involvement and endorsement further confirms our belief that the Company is in the right market, at the right time, and has assembled a strong portfolio of iron ore properties.

Limited Operating History

We have generated approximately two full years of financial information and have not previously demonstrated that we will be able to expand our business through an increased investment in our product line and/or marketing efforts.  Our business is subject to risks inherent in growing an enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible rejection of our new products and/or sales methods.

If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue expanding our operations. Equity financing will result in a dilution to existing shareholders.

Results of Operations
 
For the year ended December 31, 2010, we have no iron ore mining related revenue. Total expenses related to the development of our iron ore business for the year ended December 31, 2010, totaled $1,402,856 resulting in a loss of $1,402,856.  Total expenses of $1,402,856 for the period consisted of $942,584 for general and administrative expenses, $127,195 for investment banking expense, $201,406 for executive management compensation, $33,849 for rent expense, $94,925 derivative expense and $2,898 for depreciation expense.  Additionally, we had interest expense of $382,936 consisting of interest to related parties of $218,710, non-related parties of $29,464 and interest expense of $134,762 related to debt discount for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
For the year ended December 31, 2009, we had no iron ore mining related revenue.  Total expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009, totaled $342,635 resulting in an operating loss of $342,635.  Total expenses of $342,635 for the period consisted of $106,078 for executive compensation, $161,335 for general and administrative expenses, $2,898 for depreciation expense, and $72,324 for rent expense.  Additionally, we had interest expense of $803,161 to related parties and no interest expense to non-related parties for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
As described above, for the year ended December 31, 2010, we accounted for the merchant banking and consulting divestiture as “discontinued operations.” We wrote off all of our trade receivable assets of $323,430 related to the merchant banking and consulting operations, and recorded a net loss on discontinued operations of $743,431.

For the year ended December 31, 2009, we accounted for the merchant banking and consulting divestiture as “discontinued operations.”  We recorded a net loss on discontinued operations of $988,283.
 
As a result of the above, our consolidated net loss, including discontinued operations, for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $2,529,223, as compared to a consolidated loss of $2,134,078 for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
Liquidity and Financial Condition
 
As of December 31, 2010, we had $2,597,486 in cash, $2,891,706 in total current assets and $4,505,798 in total current liabilities.  Our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $1,614,092 as of December 31, 2010.
 
Also, at December 31, 2010, we had recorded $1,646,985 of long-term liabilities from discontinued operations.
 
We believe we can satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months with our current cash, expected iron ore revenues and continued funding from our majority shareholder, IMG Stock Holdings, S.A. dba Javalon. However, completion of our plan of operation is subject to attaining adequate revenue and additional financing.  We cannot assure investors that adequate revenues will be generated.  In the absence of our projected revenues, we may be unable to proceed with our plan of operations.  Even without adequate revenues within the next twelve months, we still anticipate being able to continue with our present activities, but we may require financing to potentially achieve our profit, revenue, and growth goals.

Per the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, dated August 27, 2010, and further amended on November 19, 2010 and March 31, 2011, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement for the purchase of 100% equity in CIM Minerals Investors, S.A., which owns 99.9% stock ownership interest in Minera Iron Mining Group Chile, Ltda., a Chilean iron ore mining company (“IMG Chile”, formerly and at the time of this transaction know as Chile Inversiones de Minerales, Ltda.).  With the acquisition of IMG Chile, we added to our portfolio the mineral rights to multiple iron ore reserves within Chile’s Second, Third Regions and Fourth Regions, as well as critical contracts to utilize midsized regional ports adjacent to these reserve projects.  We continue to work to develop these various iron ore mining opportunities along with complementary port and logistics infrastructure in Chile.  In Chile, we employ only one (1) full-time employee, with additional contractors hired from time to time as necessary to provide specific professional or technical services.  Finally, we maintain an office and consolidated living space in Santiago, Chile, for use by management when in the country.

Subsequently, upon entering multiple mine development joint ventures in Mexico, the Company opened an office and consolidated living space in Manzanillo, Mexico for use by management when in the country.  The Company currently employs ten (10) individuals in Mexico, with additional contractors hired from time to time as necessary to provide specific professional or technical services.

Per the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, dated December 27, 2010, the Company received convertible financing of $3,300,000 to be used for the development of our existing and targeted iron ore projects in Chile and Mexico.  We anticipate that our operational and general and administrative expenses for the next 12 months will be minimal and will be sufficiently accounted for through these funds.  While we anticipate the purchase or sale of significant equipment, we aim to secure outside financing for to fund these transactions.  We do not expect any significant additions to the number of employees.  The foregoing represents our best estimate of our cash needs based on current planning and business conditions.  The exact allocation, purposes and timing of any monies raised in subsequent private financings may vary significantly depending upon the exact amount of funds raised and our progress with the execution of our business plan.
 
In the event we are not successful in reaching our initial revenue targets, additional funds may be required, and we may not be able to proceed with our business plan for the development and marketing of our core business.  Should this occur, we would likely seek additional financing to support the continued operation of our business.  We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future.  Therefore, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use if estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 of our financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact our financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.

Business Combinations

During 2010, the Company transitioned from a global merchant bank to an iron ore mining company focusing on mining properties in Chile and Mexico.  The following acquisitions completed by the Company were all accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, their results of operations have been consolidated or combined in the Company’s financial statements since the respective dates of acquisition.

Revenue recognition

In 2011, the Company anticipates being able to recognize revenue from the sale of iron ore against its purchase contracts from its two customers in China.  Revenue from the sale of iron ore will be recognized at the time the product is loaded on a ship and said ship leaves port.  All payments for product will be made through a letter of credit, which will be drawn against at the time ship is loaded and leaves port.

Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for all compensation related to stock, options or warrants using a fair value based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value of options and warrants issued to both employees and non-employees. Stock issued for compensation is valued using the market price of the stock on the date of the related agreement.

Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company has evaluated the recent accounting pronouncements through ASU 2011-02 and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the company’s financial statements, except for the following.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29 – “Business Combinations – Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations”, ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010.   Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect a material impact of adopting ASU 2010-29 on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company; however, it will affect the disclosures in the footnotes.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28 - “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other—When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts”, ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010.  Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2010-28 on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities” (SPEs).

ITEM 9.     CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Our accountant is L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC, CPAs, independent certified public accountants. At no time have there been any disagreements with such accountants regarding any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
 
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate controls over financial reporting. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure (i) that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and (ii) that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Furthermore, smaller reporting companies face additional limitations.  Smaller reporting companies employ fewer individuals and may find it difficult to properly segregate duties.  Often, one or two individuals control every aspect of the Company's operation and are in a position to override any system of internal control.  Additionally, smaller reporting companies tend to utilize general accounting software packages that lack a rigorous set of software controls.

Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC as directed by Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules13a-15(e)) as of December 31, 2010.  In making this assessment, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework.

Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of that date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15, were not effective at a reasonable assurance level.  Management’s assessment identified the following material weaknesses:

·  
As of December 31, 2010, there was a lack of accounting personnel with the requisite knowledge of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the US and the financial reporting requirements of the SEC;

·  
As of December 31, 2010, there were insufficient written policies and procedures to insure the correct application of accounting and financial reporting with respect to the current requirements of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and

·  
As of December 31, 2010, there was a lack of segregation of duties, in that we only had one person performing all accounting-related duties.

Notwithstanding the existence of these material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, our management believes that the financial statements included in its reports fairly present in all material respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.  We continue to evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls and procedures on an on-going basis.  We plan to further address these issues once we commence operations and are able to hire additional personnel in financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Term of Office
 
Our directors are appointed for a one-year term to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until removed by the board.
 
All officers and directors listed above will remain in office until the next annual meeting of our stockholders, and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. There are no agreements with respect to the election of Directors. We have not compensated our Directors for service on our Board of Directors, any committee thereof, or reimbursed for expenses incurred for attendance at meetings of our Board of Directors and/or any committee of our Board of Directors. Officers are appointed annually by our Board of Directors and each Executive Officer serves at the discretion of our Board of Directors. We do not have any standing committees. Our Board of Directors may in the future determine to pay Directors’ fees and reimburse Directors for expenses related to their activities.
 
Audit Committee
 
We do not have a standing audit committee of the Board of Directors. Management has determined not to establish an audit committee at present because of our limited resources and limited operating activities do not warrant the formation of an audit committee or the expense of doing so.  Besides the services of Mr. Garrett Krause, we do not have a financial expert serving on the Board of Directors or employed as an officer based on management’s belief that the cost of obtaining the services of a person who meets the criteria for a financial expert under Item 401(e) of Regulation S-B is beyond its limited financial resources and the financial skills of such an expert are simply not required or necessary for us to maintain effective internal controls and procedures for financial reporting in light of the limited scope and simplicity of accounting issues raised in its financial statements at this stage of its development.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

In 1994, Mr. Krause made a $300,000 investment in a company located in Las Vegas, Nevada and due to some previous issues with the original company founder not disclosed within the transaction, subsequent legal action was taken and Mr. Krause was included as a second defendant.  Several years later, the lawsuit became dormant due to the death of the principal defendant.  Mr. Krause wrongly took the assumption that his lawyer had the case dismissed.  In 1997, the plaintiff went to court and obtained a $30 million default judgment against Mr. Krause personally by serving him at a previous address.  After becoming aware of the personal judgment against him in late 1999, Mr. Krause’s spent several years and approximately $500,000 in legal fees fighting through the Nevada court system seeking his day in court.  Mr. Krause and his counsel heavily disputed the allegations, findings and facts, which led to the default judgment.  In October of 2005, at the advice of his legal counsel, Mr. Krause filed personal bankruptcy in an effort to move the case from local Nevada courts to the Federal Bankruptcy Court.  In the first hearing on this case in 2006 the bankruptcy judge dismissed the judgment and case, with prejudice, and Mr. Krause’s bankruptcy was immediately discharged.  In 2008, the lower court’s decision was held up on appeal and the case was settled for $250,000 during the final appeal to the United States Supreme Court

Other than described above, to our knowledge, during the past ten (10) years, none of our directors, executive officers, promoters, control persons, or nominees has been:

·  
the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;

·  
convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses)

·  
subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or

·  
found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law.

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are required to furnish copies to the Company. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, any reports required to be filed were timely filed in fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Auditors; Code of Ethics; Financial Expert

We do not have an audit committee financial expert.  We do not have an audit committee financial expert because we believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive.  Furthermore, because we are only beginning our commercial operations, at the present time, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

We are not aware of any current or potential conflicts of interest with any of our executives or directors.

Forward Executive Compensation Overview
 
In order to serve the best interests of shareholders, the Company follows an executive compensation philosophy that emphasizes Performance-Based Compensation, which will be evaluated and adjusted on an annual basis by the Company’s Board of Directors.  In determining compensation in 2011, the Company has considered measures of performance as it directly relates to positive earnings for the Company.   In the future, the Company may adapt additional metrics similar to those of like companies in our space, which may include increased earnings per share, increased return on equity, or specific performance benchmarks agreed upon by the Company’s senior management and the Board of Directors.   The terms of the 2011 Executive Compensation are detailed below, and outlined in each executive officer’s (“Management”) Compensation Agreement, dated April 30, 2011.
 
For the fiscal year 2010, the Company failed to generate positive earnings, and as such, no bonuses or incentives under this plan were paid to Management.
 
Executive officers receive annual total compensation comprised of base salary, and both cash and equity incentive compensation. Base salaries are intended to be a small portion of the total compensation with regards to the types of compensation available for Management.  Additionally, the Company believes that the best way to align the interests of Management with those of the Company’s shareholders is to ensure that IMG stock represents a substantial portion of their compensation.  Per the compensation agreements signed with the Company, Management receives the following types of compensation: salary, cash bonus, stock bonus.
 
 
15

 
 
Executive Salaries:

The Company sets salaries at the beginning of the year.  The Chief Executive Officer shall set salaries for each executive officer aside from the Chief Executive Officer.  The current base cash salary for the Chief Executive Officer was agreed to be $200,000.
 
Cash Bonus:
 
The Company has established a “bonus matrix” which calls for distributions of the Company’s net earnings, based upon the Company achieving predetermined benchmark levels of profitability.  In principal, as the net earnings of the Company increase, so does the bonus allocated to senior management.  The executive cash bonus for the year 2010 has not been set at this time.
 
Stock Bonus:
 
In addition to the cash bonus mentioned above, Officers shall receive 5-year IMG stock options (“Options”).  Options issued shall originate from the 2011 stock option bonus allowance, and shall be allocated for year-end bonuses at a predetermined strike price, which is the trading price on December 31, 2010.  Option holders may execute their Options anytime prior to their expiration date.  Additionally, any converted stock that is sold is subject to a “trickle out” provision in accordance with Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  At this time no final Stock Option Bonuses have been determined

ITEM 14.   PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

Audit Fees
 
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, and the period ended December 31, 2009, the Company was billed approximately $73,200 and $32,900 respectively for professional services rendered for the audit and review of our financial statements.
     
Audit Related Fees
 
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and for the period ended December 31, 2009, the Company did not incur any other fees related to services rendered by our tax professional.

Tax Fees
 
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and for the period ended December 31, 2009, the Company did not incur any other fees related to services rendered by our tax professional.
 
All Other Fees
 
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and for the period ended December 31, 2009, the Company did not incur any other fees related to services rendered by our principal accountant.

Effective May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that require that before our auditor is engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:

·  
approved by our audit committee; or

·  
entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the audit committee, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the audit committee is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the audit committee's responsibilities to management.

We do not have an audit committee.  Our entire board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. The pre-approval process has just been implemented in response to the new rules. Therefore, our board of directors does not have records of what percentage of the above fees were pre-approved.  However, all of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the entire board of directors either before or after the respective services was rendered.
 
Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Iron Mining Group, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Iron Mining Group, Inc. (“the Company”) (formerly known as WorldVest, Inc.) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and for the period when the Company re-entered development stage from November 19, 2010 to December 31, 2010. The Company’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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes 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 the Company of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and for the period when the Company re-entered development stage from November 19, 2010 to December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s current liabilities exceed current assets and has incurred recurring losses, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Description of Business

Iron Mining Group, Inc., formerly WorldVest, Inc., (hereafter “IMG,” “Iron Mining Group” or the “Company”) was organized September 17, 2007, under the laws of the State of Florida, under the name Catalyst Ventures Incorporated.  The Company filed an amendment with the Florida Secretary of State changing the Company’s name to WorldVest, Inc. on July 2, 2009, and on October 15, 2010, changed its name again to Iron Mining Group, Inc.  The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001.
 
Recently, the Company has finalized its transition from a global merchant bank to an iron ore mining company, with its focus on the acquisition and development of iron ore mining properties in Chile and Mexico.  On August 27, 2010 and amended November 19, 2010, Iron Mining Group closed on the acquisition of 100% of CIM Mineral Investors, S.A. a BVI mineral holding company that owns 99.9% of Minera Iron Mining Group Chile, Ltda. (formerly Chile Inversiones de Minerales, Ltda.) “IMG Chile” is considered the Chilean parent operating company for all Iron Mining Group iron ore business in Chile currently holds 100% equity interest in the Atacama Desert Iron Ore Mine and 100% equity interest in the Tocopilla Iron Sands Mine and a 50% equity interest in Cruz Grande, S.A., with a option to acquire another 20%. On March 31, 2011 the terms were amended and  finalized whereby 32,000,000 shares were issued for the acquisition with 22,000,000 of these shares escrowed and will vest upon successful production and export of 1,000,000 metric tons of iron ore from the company’s properties.
 
In the first quarter of 2011, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned operating subsidiary in Mexico under the name of Hierro IMG Mexico, SA de CV, and has signed two letters of intent for iron ore exploration and development Joint Ventures.  We have also opened our Manzanillo pre-port patio, which will serve as our base for the Manzanillo Iron Ore Co-OP.

Development Stage
 
The Company was in development stage through December 31, 2009. The 2010 fiscal year was the first year during which the Company was considered an operating company and was no longer in the development stage. In November 2010, the Company discontinued its operations as a global merchant bank and became focused on building its iron ore mining business and re-entered development stage on November 19, 2010.
 
Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).  Management has included all nominal recurring adjustments considered necessary to give a fair presentation of operating results for the periods presented.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative results for a full year.  The information included in this Form 10-K should be read in conjunction with information included in the 2009 annual report filed on Form 10-K.

Principles of Combination

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 805, “Business Combinations” ASC 805 a “business combination” excludes transfers of net assets or exchanges of equity interests between entities under common control.  ASC 805 also states that transfers of net assets or exchanges of equity interests between entities under common control should be accounted for similar to the pooling-of-interests method (“as-if pooling-of-interests”) in that the entity that receives the net assets or the equity interests initially recognizes the assets and liabilities transferred at their carrying amounts in the accounts of the transferring entity at the date of transfer. Because the Company and WorldVest, LLC and FutureVest were under common control at the time of the acquisitions, the transfer of assets and liabilities of WorldVest, LLC and FutureVest were accounted for at historical cost in a manner similar to a pooling of interests.  For financial accounting purposes, the acquisition was viewed as a change in reporting entity and, as a result, required restatement of the Company’s financial statements for all periods subsequent to June 18, 2009, the date of the transaction and the date at which common control of the Company and WorldVest, LLC and FutureVest by Iron Mining Group, Inc. commenced.  Accordingly, the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and the consolidated statement of operations, consolidated statement of stockholders’ deficit and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2010, include Iron Mining Group, Inc. consolidated with the assets of WorldVest, LLC and FutureVest.  As of December 31, 2010, Iron Mining Group transferred the ownership of FutureVest to The WorldVest Fund, S.A. in a related party transaction causing for a gain on the sale of assets of $35,152.

Business Combinations

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-29, “Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations,” (“ASU 2010-29”) which addresses diversity in practice regarding the interpretation of the pro forma revenue and earnings disclosure requirements for business combinations. ASU 2010-29 specifies that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the consolidated entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The amendments in ASU 2010-29 also expand supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The new standard is effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The impact on the Company of adopting the new standard will depend on the nature, terms and size of the business combinations completed after the adoption date.

Cash and Equivalents

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.  There were no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Revenue Recognition

In 2011 the Company anticipates being able to recognize revenue from the sale of iron ore against its purchase contracts from its two customers in China.  Revenue from the sale of iron ore will be recognized at the time the product is loaded on a ship and said ship leaves port.  All payments for product will be made through a letter of credit, which will be drawn against at the time ship is loaded and leaves port.

Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for all compensation related to stock, options or warrants using a fair value based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value of options and warrants issued to both employees and non-employees. Stock issued for compensation is valued using the market price of the stock on the date of the related agreement.

Dividends

During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company declared a share dividend for 360,000 common shares with a market value of $644,400 as payment on the 4,000,000 Class B Preferred Shares issued as of December 31, 2009.  Some of this dividend has not been issued and is reflected as a balance in the common stock payable equity account.

Loss per common share

The Company presents basic loss per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS on the face of the statement of operations.  Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported losses by the weighted average shares outstanding.  Diluted EPS is computed by adding to the weighted average shares the dilutive effect if stock options and warrants were exercised into common stock.  For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the denominator in the diluted EPS computation is the same as the denominator for basic EPS because the Company had net losses and the 15,441,365 warrants outstanding would have been anti-dilutive.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1: Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Income Taxes (Continued)

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent the Company believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets that do not meet the criteria for recognition. In the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, the would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

The Company follows the accounting guidance which provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized initially and in subsequent periods. Also included is guidance on measurement, de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company did not record a provision for income taxes because the Company has incurred taxable losses since its formation in 2007. As it has no history of generating taxable income, the Company reduces any deferred tax assets by a full valuation allowance. The Company anticipates incurring additional taxable losses while it completes the development and commercialization of its iron ore mining business. The Company may in the future become subject to federal, state and city income taxation, though it has not been since its inception.

Use of Estimate

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 as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company has financial instruments whereby the fair value of the financial instruments could be different than that recorded on a historical basis in the accompanying balance sheet.  The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and payables.  The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair values as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, due to their short-term nature.

Level 1 -The preferred inputs to valuation efforts are “quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities,” with the caveat that the reporting entity must have access to that market.  Information at this level is based on direct observations of transactions involving the same assets and liabilities, not assumptions, and thus offers superior reliability. However, relatively few items, especially physical assets, actually trade in active markets.

Level 2 - FASB acknowledged that active markets for identical assets and liabilities are relatively uncommon and, even when they do exist, they may be too thin to provide reliable information. To deal with this shortage of direct data, the board provided a second level of inputs that can be applied in three situations.

Level 3 - If inputs from levels 1 and 2 are not available, FASB acknowledges that fair value measures of many assets and liabilities are less precise. The board describes Level 3 inputs as “unobservable,” and limits their use by saying they “shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.” This category allows “for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date”. Earlier in the standard, FASB explains that “observable inputs” are gathered from sources other than the reporting company and that they are expected to reflect assumptions made by market participants.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has evaluated the recent accounting pronouncements through ASU 2011-02 and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the company’s financial statements, except for the following.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29 – “Business Combinations – Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations”, ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010.   Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect a material impact of adopting ASU 2010-29 on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company; however, it will affect the disclosures in the footnotes.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28 - “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other—When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts”, ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010.  Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2010-28 on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Fiscal Year End

The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.

Note 2: Going Concern
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has accumulated consolidated net losses through December 31, 2010. The Company’s current liabilities exceed its current assets by $1,614,092 as of December 31, 2010.
 
These conditions give rise to substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  These financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of reported asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as going concern.  The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing or sale of its common stock as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.

Management’s plan, in this regard, is to focus its efforts on the development of the current projects within IMG Mexico and IMG Chile to rapidly reach commercial production and export of iron ore against its existing Chinese iron ore off take agreements.  The Company anticipates beginning export from its Mexico cash Co-Op in the second quarter of 2011 with its own mine production from its pending iron ore Joint Ventures beginning by the third quarter of 2011. With this export and sale of iron ore, IMG will begin generating significant ongoing cash flow to cover all operating expense and fully repay any current debts the company may have incurred.

Subsequently, the Company anticipates beginning initial production on its Atacama Desert Iron Ore Mine through the instillation of a pilot plant in late 2011, with full commercial production targeted for early 2012.  Next, the company anticipates receiving final authorizations to begin commercial mining on its Chilean ocean sands projects in the first half of 2012.  Throughout, as we move forward with our existing projects, the Company will continually look to acquire additional “production-ready” projects on attractive terms.

At this time the Company has signed a retainer agreement with Sunrise Securities Corporation in New York, New York (“Sunrise”), whereby Sunrise will attempt on a best efforts basis to raise the Company $50,000,000 through a series of debt and equity financings through its retail and institutional investors.  However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising such financings.  As of the date of these financial statements, the Company has not secured a firm commitment under its financing plan, but will soon open the private placement to accredited investors and institutions.

Note 3: Mineral Assets and Valuation
 
During 2010, the Company transitioned from a global merchant bank to an iron ore mining company focusing on mining properties in Chile and Mexico. The following acquisitions completed by the Company were all accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, their results of operations have been consolidated or consolidated in the Company’s financial statements since the respective dates of acquisition.
 
On August 27, 2010 and amended on November 19, 2010 and further amended on March 31, 2011 the Company acquired 100% of CIM Mineral Investors, S.A. a BVI mineral holding company that owns 99.9% of Minera Iron Mining Group Chile, Ltda. (formerly Chile Inversiones de Minerales, Ltda.) “IMG Chile”, which holds 100% equity interest in the Atacama Desert Iron Ore Mine and 100% equity interest in the Tocopilla Iron Sands Mine and a 50% equity interest in Cruz Grande, S.A, which owns 100% of Chispitas Doradas Mineral Concession, with an option to acquire another 20%.  
 
IMG Stock Holdings, the Company’s majority stockholder originally acquired CIM Mineral Investors, S.A. from a group of investors in exchange for equity in IMG Stock Holdings, S.A. dba Javalon, which simultaneously transferred 100% ownership of CIM Mineral Investors, S.A. along with the negotiated pass through earn-out performance conditions for a total of 32,000,000 shares of Iron Mining Group Stock. At this time the full 22,000,000 shares are contingently issued and held in escrow based on an earn-out provision that provides for release based on 1,000,000 metric tons of iron ore produced and exported from its Chilean iron ore properties.
  
During 2011, the Company will engage an independent mineral valuation company and an independent business valuation company in order to assist the Company with determining the fair value of the CIM Mineral Investors, S.A. transaction in an attempt to record the proper valuation of its two iron ore assets on the Company’s Financial Statements. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has preliminarily valued the two Chilean iron ore assets at $32,000, which equates to the par value of the number of shares issued as part of the agreement including the contingent consideration of 22,000,000 escrowed shares pending the earn-out provision. The Company has placed a fair value of $0 on the 7,500,000 warrants issued as part of the agreement. During the course of the next year the Company will take the necessary steps to properly value the transaction.
 
On November 19, 2010 the Company closed on a third iron ore asset acquisition when it acquired 50% of Cruz Grande, S.A. and as part of the transaction the Company paid $300,000 in cash for 50% of the equity with an option to acquire another 20% for $4,000 subject to payment of a pre-existing debt to the minority shareholder of $1,040,000. The transaction also called for the assumption of current liabilities of $1,040,000 owed to shareholders, $200,000 overdue for the royalty buyout agreement and another $67,000 of debts to professional contractors engaged by Cruz Grande.
 
Cruz Grande currently owns 100% of the Chispita Doradas Mineral Concession in the forth region of Chile located about 90 km from La Serena.

As of December 31, 2010, Minera Iron Mining Group Chile, Ltda. and its Cruz Grande Subsidiary have not commenced revenue or expense operations and through December 31, 2010 and holds ownership on certain mineral concession assets.  With this said the Company is in the process of completing independent consolidated 2-year historical audit of IMG Chile, which will include its controlling interest in Cruz Grande, S.A.
 
There has been no historical income so proformas on IMG Chile or Cruz Grande to present because the companies hold mineral concessions and have not commenced operations through December 31, 2010, and therefore there are no pro-formas.
 
The Company holds 50% of Cruz Grande, S.A. and by contract has 2 of 3 seats on the board of directors and as such we have consolidated Cruz Grande with IMG Chile with further consolidation up to IMG.
 
The Company will engage an independent mineral valuation company in conjunction with an independent business valuation company in order to determine a fair value for these three assets in an attempt to record the proper valuation as an asset on the books. The Company issued $40,000,000 in stock for the acquisition of the assets through the issuance of 32,000,000 shares with the understanding that 22,000,000 of these shares are held in escrow and will be vested as the Company produces and sells a minimum of 1,000,000 metric tons of iron ore over the next 7 years.

Note 3: Mineral Assets and Valuation (Continued)

In determining this course of action the company is relying on the following GAAP accounting policy:

In some situations, all information required to (1) measure the consideration transferred, (2) identify and measure assets acquired and liabilities assumed, (3) measure the noncontrolling interest, and (4) calculate goodwill or a bargain purchase will not be available on the date of acquisition.  If accounting for the business combination is incomplete as of the end of the first reporting period subsequent to the combination, the financial statements should reflect provisional amounts used to record the transaction. As information subsequently becomes available, such provisional amounts should be retrospectively adjusted (which may include recognition of additional identifiable assets acquired or liabilities assumed).  The period over which the new or additional information necessary for a final accounting of the business combination is received (or it is determined that the necessary information is not obtainable) is referred to as the measurement period; note, though, that the measurement period may not extend beyond one year from the acquisition date.  Once the measurement period ends, revisions to amounts recorded in the business-combination transaction may be made only to correct an error.

Over the next three months, the Company plans to set up a pilot plant in the Atacama Desert Iron Ore Mine, which will enable the processing and sale of 5,000 MT per month and allow our projection assumptions to be proven out.  Simultaneously, we will continue our JORC compliant drilling efforts in order to further advance our Atacama reserve estimates.  With this pilot plant proving out our assumptions and continued drilling the independent valuation companies should be able to come to a fair valuation that can be agreed on by the company and its auditors.

Simultaneously, we will continue pursuit of our final Marine Concession for the Tocopilla and La Serena, which, if granted, will allow us to mine the ocean floor where there are projected to be hundreds of millions of metric tons of raw iron sands with a iron content up to 50%.  It is anticipated that once the marine concession is approved these two properties would become world-class iron ore mineral deposits with substantial value.

Note 9: Derivative Liabilities
 
In June 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock.  Under the authoritative guidance, effective January 1, 2009, when the entity does not have enough authorized capital to satisfy the conversion of debt and the exercise of warrants, are deemed to be derivative instruments.  The conversion feature of the Company’s convertible debenture (described in Note 8), the related warrants if exercised and converted into shares of the common stock, the Company does not have enough authorized capital.  Additionally, the Company was required to include the reset conversion price and exercise price provisions in order to allow the holders to any lower prices in future financings. In accordance with the FASB authoritative guidance, the conversion feature of the Convertible Debentures was separated from the host contract (i.e. the Convertible Debentures) and recognized as a derivative liability in the balance sheet, and the warrants issued in connection with the convertible notes have been recorded as derivative liabilities in the balance sheet to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with changes in fair values reported in the consolidated statements of operations.
 
The derivative liabilities were valued using the Black-Scholes valuation techniques with the following assumptions:
