Item 5.07   Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

The Company is holding a special meeting of the shareholders on August 31, 2011.  The meeting is to take place in Newport Beach, CA and will begin at 12:30pm.

Item 8.01   Other Events

a.  From May 20, 2011 through July 5, 2011, the Company conducted 23 days of test mining production (or "bulk sampling") operations from its mining property.  The mining property that the test mining was conducted one  is referred to as the "Gorilla site" by the Company and its management.  Gorilla is 400 hectares (or 988.5 acres) or approximately 4,000,000 square meters (or 1.5 square miles) .  The Company mined approximately 500 tons of earth.  Based on the results, the Company has determined that the average gold on Gorilla is 0.76 grams per cubic meter or 0.62 grams per ton.  The results from the 23 days ranged from 0.46 grams per meter to 1.47 grams per meters and 0.27 grams per ton to 1.21 grams per ton.  Based on these initial ranges the Company is estimating that the amount of gold on the Gorilla site could be in excess of $100,000,000; however, additional testing is necessary to determine the total size of the gold deposits and the amount of usable land.

These results have not been independently verified and were conducted internally to assist in determining if the property contains gold values conducive to profitable extraction.

 b.  The Company is currently looking to claim an additional 800 hectares that is adjacent to the Company's Gorilla site.

c.  The Company is currently to claim hard rock concessions in the mountains of Peru.

d.  The Company is expecting to expand its Peruvian mining operations to include the purchase of gold from individuals and other mining companies around the Company's mining properties.  The Company anticipates that  that it could purchase from 10 ounces to 80 ounces of gold per week and resale it for a higher price in Lima, Peru or in the United States.

e.  On August 16, 2011, the Company issued 6,000,000 options to Paul Howarth, 6,000,000 options to Joseph Mezey and 1,200,000 option to Blaine Riley.  Mr. Howarth and Mr. Mezey's options vest at a rate of 500,000 options per month and Mr. Rileys vest at 100,000 per month.  The options expire 12 months from their vesting date.  The option price is $0.10 per share and are for the Company's Class A Common Stock.
