The Company is involved in acquiring and exploring mineral properties in Chile. The Company has not determined whether its properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable.

Overview
Red Metal is a mineral exploration company engaged in locating, and eventually developing, mineral resources in Chile. Our business strategy is to identify, acquire and explore prospective mineral claims with a view to either developing them ourselves or, more likely, finding a joint venture partner with the mining experience and financial means to undertake the development. All of our claims are in the Candelaria IOCG belt in the Chilean Coastal Cordillera.
 
We have no revenue-generating operations and are dependent upon the equity markets for our working capital. The collapse of the equity markets late in 2008, and the economic uncertainty and market instability that followed, have affected our ability to raise equity capital.  Market prices of copper and gold overall are moving in a positive direction and we are more optimistic that we can raise equity capital under these market conditions. We completed an offering of 6,723,333 units on April 7, 2011 at $0.30 per unit. Each unit consisted of one share of our common stock and one warrant for the purchase of one share exercisable at $0.50 per share for two years. We realized net proceeds of $1,862,462 from this offering.
 
In response to the economic environment of 2008, and the fact that we had only nominal revenues, in 2009 we terminated our duty to file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission to save the legal and  auditing costs. We resumed filing reports by filing a registration statement on Form 10 on April 14, 2010.

Consistent with our historical practices, we continue to monitor our costs in Chile by reviewing our mineral claims to determine whether they possess the geological indicators to economically justify the capital to maintain or explore them. We own nothing in Chile except our claims and have no long-term commitments except the obligation to pay royalties if we exploit our properties. We have three employees in Chile. All of our other support there—such as vehicles, office and equipment, and administrative personnel—is supplied under short-term contracts. 
 
We conducted a drilling program on our Farellon property in September of 2009. We have analyzed the results and believe that further drilling of the property is warranted. Micon International Limited, from whom we commissioned a Canadian National Instrument 43-101 technical report summarizing the drilling results, has recommended that we conduct a two-phase drilling program. We have planned a first phase consisting of 2,000 meters of combined RC and diamond drilling to define the structural controls on the mineralization and assist in defining the depth and nature of the sulphide mineralization. The estimated cost of this phase is $275,000. We intend to begin this drilling in our second quarter.
 
If the first phase is successful, we propose to conduct a larger exploration program consisting of 10,000 meters of combined RC and diamond drilling, geophysical surveys and geological mapping to ascertain the extent of the structural controls and the potential size of the mineralization. The estimated cost today of this phase is $2.5 million.

We are planning an initial exploration program on the Mateo property including geophysics, surface mapping, sampling and a 1,000-metre RC drill program for a total cost of approximately $300,000.

On March 14, 2011, we entered into a joint venture earn-in agreement on the Perth property with Revonergy Inc. According to the agreement Revonergy Inc. can earn a 35% interest in the Perth property if it spends a minimum $1,450,000 on a three-phase exploration program; and can earn a further 15% interest if it completes a preliminary feasibility study within four years from the signing of the agreement.

The cost and timing of all planned exploration programs are subject to the availability of qualified mining personnel, such as consulting geologists and geo-technicians, and drillers and drilling equipment. If we are unable to find the personnel and equipment that we need when we need them and at the prices that we have estimated today, we might have to revise or postpone our plans.
 
At April 30, 2011, we had a working capital of $744,936 and $1,310,644 in cash. This was a result of a private equity financing that we completed on April 7, 2011, for net proceeds after commissions, legal and closing fees of $1,862,462. We intend to use $600,000 from the current cash reserves on the Farellon exploration programs; and $200,000 on the phase 1 Mateo mapping and geophysics to identify Candelaria-type targets.

During the quarter ended July 31, 2009, due to the downturn in the economy, we were maintaining low levels of operations. Excluding the written down unproved mineral claims, our net loss for this quarter was $95,037. During the quarter ended October 31, 2009 we conducted a drilling program on our Farellon property, which increased our mineral exploration costs. Excluding the recovery of written down unproved mineral property costs, our net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 was $202,537. During the quarter ended January 31, 2010, we began preparation of the registration statement that was filed on April 10, 2010, which resulted in a substantial increase in our professional fees. During the quarter ended July 31, 2010, we maintained our investor-related activities on a moderate level and decreased our travel costs and professional fees, which resulted in a decrease in our net loss for the quarter. During the quarters ended October 31, 2010 and January 31, 2011, we invested more in advertising activities and experienced higher professional fees associated with our year-end audit and capital-raising efforts.  During the quarter ended April 30, 2011, aside from our regular day-to-day operations, we completed a private placement offering and began preparation of the registration statement on form S-1 that we filed on May 13, 2011. As a result of these activities, our professional and regulatory fees and other expenses increased. We also increased our mineral exploration activities on the Farellon and Mateo properties, which increased our exploration expenses.

Operating expenses. Our operating expenses increased by $88,425, or 45%, from $196,851 for the three months ended April 30, 2010 to $285,276 for the three months ended April 30, 2011.  The following are our most significant year-to-date changes:

 
Due to higher accounting and financial advisory requirements we incurred $66,220 in consulting fees during the three months ended April 30, 2011, an increase of $33,297 compared to $32,923 for the three months ended April 30, 2010.
 
During the three months ended April 30, 2011, we expensed $18,606 in interest on current debt, an increase of $13,704 compared to interest expensed during the three months ended April 30, 2010. This increase was mainly associated with the debt-to-equity conversion that occurred on January 7, 2010, which led to a decrease in outstanding payables and loans subject to interest calculations during the period ended April 30, 2010.
 
During the three months ended April 30, 2011, we increased our mineral exploration activities on our Farellon and Mateo properties, which resulted in a $29,392 increase from $555 for the three months ended April 30, 2010 to $29,947 during the three months ended April 30, 2011.
 
During the three months ended April 30, 2011, we wrote down $2,909 in mineral property acquisition costs after we abandoned some of our Mateo exploration claims. During the three months ended April 30, 2010, we did not write down any of our properties.

Net loss. We had a net loss of $285,276 for the three months ended April 30, 2011, compared to a net loss of $196,851 for the three months ended April 30, 2010.  The $88,425 increase in net loss was due to increases in consulting fees, commissions and mineral exploration activities in Chile, as well as increases in salaries, wages and benefits and professional and regulatory fees. These increases were offset by decreases in travel and entertainment costs and administrative fees.

Liquidity
 
GOING CONCERN

The consolidated financial statements included in this form 10-Q have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that we will continue to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business. We have not generated any significant revenues from mineral sales since inception, have never paid any dividends and are unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. Our continuation as a going concern depends upon the continued financial support of our shareholders, our ability to obtain necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow depends upon our ability to locate profitable mineral claims, generate revenue from mineral production and control our production costs. Based upon our current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods, which we plan to mitigate by controlling our operating costs and sharing mineral exploration expenses through joint venture agreements.  In April 2011 we completed a financing of units consisting of our common stock and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock.  We raised gross proceeds of $2,017,000.  We expect these funds to be adequate to support the current stage of our operations for the next 12 months.   However, we are continually reviewing potential properties to add to our portfolio. Suitable acquisitions and project development will require additional financing.  Until we earn enough revenue to support our operations, which may never happen, we will continue to be dependent on loans and sales of our equity or debt securities to continue our development and exploration activities.  If we do not find sources of financing as and when we need them, we may be required to severely curtail, or even to cease, our operations. At April 30, 2011, we had a working capital of $744,936 and accumulated losses of $3,342,095 since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate significant revenues in the future. Our consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments that would be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in our financial statements.

Each unit consists of one share of our common stock and a two-year warrant exercisable for one share at $0.50 per share.

We borrowed $11,000 from the father of our president and $70,000 US and $10,000 Cdn (approximately $10,454 US) from our CFO, and repaid $14,956 in loans including accrued interest. We also recognized foreign exchange adjustment of $2,402 on $50,000 Cdn that we borrowed during the year ended January 31, 2011 from our CEO. See Non-cash financing transactions below.

During the three months ended April 30, 2010, we issued 540,000 shares of our common stock for $135,000, and borrowed $50,000 from a company owned by the father of a director.

Non-cash financing transactions. During the three months ended April 30, 2011, as part of the private placement offering completed on April 7, 2011, the Company’s CEO converted loans in the amount of $50,000 into 166,666 units and the Company’s CFO converted loans in the amount of $80,000 into 266,667 units.

During the three months ended April 30, 2010, we did not have any non-cash financing transactions.
 
Net cash used in operating activities. During the three months ended April 30, 2011, we used net cash of $540,394 in operating activities. We used $285,276 to cover operating costs and increased prepaids and other receivables by $65,582 for professional fees associated with the preparation and filing of the form S-1 registration statement. We decreased accounts payable by $75,588, and accounts payable to related parties by $139,125. These uses of cash were offset by a net increase in our accrued liabilities of $19,993, mainly associated with Chilean mineral property taxes and accrued interest on our notes payable to related parties of $2,275

During the three months ended April 30, 2010, we used net cash of $51,079 in operating activities.  We used $196,851 to cover operating costs and decreased our accrued liabilities by $31,295. These uses of cash were offset by net increases in prepaid expenses and accounts receivable of $2,801; accounts payable of $75,282, consisting mainly of legal fees incurred in preparing and filing our form 10 and the amendments to it; accounts payable to related parties of $98,423 for administration, consulting and expenses paid on our behalf; and accrued interest on our notes payable to a related party of $561.  
 
Net cash used in investing activities. During the three months ended April 30, 2011, we spent $52,839 acquiring mineral claims and paying property taxes associated with our mineral claims. We capitalized Chilean value-added tax (VAT) as part of the unproved mineral claims. This VAT is recoverable from future VAT payable.
 
During the three months ended April 30, 2010, we spent $12,298 acquiring mineral claims and options to acquire mineral claims.
 
Since inception through April 30, 2011, we have invested $1,079,608 acquiring our mineral claims.

Unproved mineral properties

We have three active properties—the Farellon, Mateo, and Perth—consisting of both mining claims and exploration claims that we have assembled since the beginning of 2007.  

Active properties

Our active properties as of the date of this filing are set out in Table 5. These properties are accessible by road from Vallenar as illustrated in Figure 1.

Capital resources

Our ability to acquire and explore our Chilean claims is subject to our ability to obtain the necessary funding.  We expect to raise funds through loans from private or affiliated persons and sales of our debt or equity securities. We have no committed sources of capital.  If we are unable to raise funds as and when we need them, we may be required to curtail, or even to cease, our operations.

To assist us with our funding efforts, we retained the services of an independent investor relations specialist to handle our corporate communications. We agreed to pay him a monthly compensation in the amount of $5,000 Cdn (approximately $5,250 US) on a month-to-month contract that can be cancelled any time with 30 days written notice.
 
On April 7, 2011, we completed a private equity financing for net proceeds after commissions, legal and closing fees of $1,862,462. We paid the placement agent a cash commission of $58,900 and issued a warrant to purchase 196,333 shares of common stock.  The securities offered were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. On May 13, 2011, we filed registration statement on form S-1 to register 4,623,333 shares of our common stock, and 4,819,666 shares of common stock underlying warrants which were a part of the above private equity financing.

Contingencies and commitments
 
We had no contingencies at April 30, 2011.  
 
 
16

 
 
We have the following long-term contractual obligations and commitments:
 
 
Farellon royalty. We are committed to paying the vendor a royalty equal to 1.5% on the net sales of minerals extracted from the Farellon claims up to a total of $600,000. The royalty payments are due monthly once exploitation begins and are subject to minimum payments of $1,000 per month. We have no obligation to pay the royalty if we do not commence exploitation. As of the date of this report we have not commenced exploitation.
 
Che option. We are committed to paying a royalty equal to 1% of the net sales of minerals extracted from the claims to a maximum of $100,000 to the former owner. The royalty payments are due monthly once exploitation begins, and are not subject to minimum payments.
 
Equity financing

To generate working capital, between January 31, 2009 and June 14, 2011 we issued 12,783,632 shares of our common stock and warrants for the purchase of 7,709,666 shares to raise $3,467,018 under Regulations S and D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.
 
We anticipate incurring operating losses in the foreseeable future and will require additional equity capital to support our operations and develop our business plan.  If we succeed in completing future equity financing, the issuance of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders.

Debt financing

On February 22, 2010, we borrowed US $50,000 and issued a demand promissory note payable to the lender for the principal sum together with interest at 6% per annum.  See Related-party transactions below.

On March 2, 2011, we borrowed US $11,000 and issued a demand promissory note payable to the lender for the principal sum together with interest at 8% per annum.  See Related-party transactions below.
 
Challenges and risks
 
We do not anticipate generating any revenue over the next twelve months. We plan to fund our operations through any combination of equity or debt financing from the sale of our securities, private loans, joint ventures or through the sale of part interest in our mineral properties. Since January 31, 2011, we have raised over $1.9 million that we believe will satisfy our current working capital needs for the next twelve months.  Although we have succeeded in raising funds as we have needed them, we cannot assure you that this will continue in the future.  Many things, such as the continued general downturn, worldwide, of the economy or a significant decrease in the price of minerals, could affect the willingness of potential investors to invest in risky ventures such as ours. In addition to the Perth joint venture earn-in agreement, we may consider entering into a joint venture partnership with a more senior resource company to complete a mineral exploration program on other properties in Chile. If we enter into a joint venture arrangement, we would likely have to assign a percentage of our interest in our mineral claims to our joint venture partner in exchange for the funding.

Investments in and expenditures on mineral interests
 
Realization of our investments in mineral properties depends upon our maintaining legal ownership, producing from the properties or gainfully disposing of them.

Title to mineral claims involves risks inherent in the difficulties of determining the validity of claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the ambiguous conveyancing history characteristic of many mineral claims. Our contracts and deeds have been notarized, recorded in the registry of mines and published in the mining bulletin. We review the mining bulletin regularly to discover whether other parties have staked claims over our ground. We have discovered no such claims. To the best of our knowledge, we have taken the steps necessary to ensure that we have good title to our mineral claims.

Foreign exchange
 
We are subject to foreign exchange risk for transactions denominated in foreign currencies.  Foreign currency risk arises from the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates relative to the United States dollar.  We do not believe that we have any material risk due to foreign currency exchange.
 
Trends, events or uncertainties that may impact results of operations or liquidity
 
The economic crisis in the United States and the resulting economic uncertainty and market instability may make it harder for us to raise capital as and when we need it and have made it difficult for us to assess the impact of the crisis on our operations or liquidity and to determine if the prices we will receive on the sale of minerals will exceed the cost of mineral exploitation.  If we are unable to raise cash, we may be required to cease our operations.  As noted above, we expect our legal and accounting fees to increase since we have resumed the obligation to file reports with the SEC.  Other than as discussed in this quarterly report, we know of no other trends, events or uncertainties that have or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our short-term or long-term liquidity.

Off-balance sheet arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements and no non-consolidated, special-purpose entities.

Critical Accounting Estimates
 
An appreciation of our critical accounting judgments is necessary to understand our financial results.  These policies may require that we make difficult and subjective judgments regarding uncertainties, and as a result, such estimates may significantly impact our financial results. The precision of these estimates and the likelihood of future changes depend on a number of underlying variables and a range of possible outcomes. Other than our accounting for the fair value of our unproved mineral properties, accruals for accounting, auditing, legal expenses and mineral property costs, our critical accounting policies do not involve the choice between alternative methods of accounting. We have applied our critical accounting judgments consistently.

Reclassifications
 
Certain comparative amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the consolidated results of operations or financial position for any year presented.
 
Unproved mineral property costs

We have been in the exploration stage since our inception on January 10, 2005 and have not yet generated significant revenue from our operations. We are primarily engaged in acquiring and exploring mining claims. We expense our mineral exploration costs as we incur them. When we have determined that a mineral claim can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, we capitalize the costs then incurred to develop the claim and will amortize them using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral claims are subsequently abandoned or impaired we will charge capitalized costs to operations.
 
Financial instruments
 
Our financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, accrued professional fees and accrued mineral property costs. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values due to their short maturities.
 
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

The Company has reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and plans to adopt those that are applicable to it. We do not expect the adoption of these pronouncements to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Caitlin Jeffs, our chief executive officer and president, and John da Costa, our chief financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as the term is defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “evaluation date”).  Based on their evaluation, they have concluded that, as of the evaluation date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

During the period covered by this report, there were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.
 
We are not a party to any pending legal proceedings and, to the best of our knowledge, none of our properties or assets is the subject of any pending legal proceedings.
 
Item 1A.  Risk Factors.
 
As a smaller reporting company we are not required to provide this information.
 
Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
 
On April 7, 2011, we sold to accredited investors 6,723,333 units at a price of $.30 per unit. Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.50 per share and are exercisable for two years. The warrants contain a call provision which allows us to call the warrants upon the occurrence of certain conditions.  We relied on Rule 506 of Regulation D and on Regulation S, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, to make the offering.  Under Regulation D, we offered the securities solely to accredited investors and did not engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising.  Under Regulation S, we sold the securities to non-US persons in offshore transactions. We did not engage in any directed selling efforts in the United States, and each investor represented to us that the investor was not a U.S. person and was not acquiring the stock for the account or benefit of a U.S. person. Each investor agreed (i) to resell the securities only in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S or pursuant to registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act, (ii) that we must refuse to register any sale of the securities purchased unless the sale is in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S or pursuant to registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act, and (iii) not to engage in hedging transactions with the securities purchased unless the transaction complies with the Securities Act. The certificates representing the securities issued were endorsed with a restrictive legend confirming that the securities had been issued pursuant to Regulation S of the Securities Act and could not be resold without registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
