ITEM 2.02. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

American International Ventures, Inc. (the “Company”) announced today in a press release that it had purchased a 40 acre mill site in Beatty, Nevada for $304,000.00 from Turner Ranch, LLC with closing via escrow on May 1, 2012.  This property will be the home base for all Company mining operations in the State of Nevada run by AIVN’s wholly owned subsidiary Placer Gold Prospecting, Inc.

 In addition, the Company plans to build its maintenance facility, storage and heavy equipment yard and future gold mill for the Bullfrog Mine Project in Rhyolite, a couple of miles away. The amenities of the property include hookups to city water, power and sewer and access by paved road. The biggest benefit to the Company is the proximity and access it affords to the 100 acre mineral claims owned by its wholly owned subsidiary Placer Gold Prospecting right next to the famous Barrick Bullfrog open pit mine.

Escrow will close on or before May 1, 2012.  A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
