Note 1
Nature of Business and Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

Axiom Gold and Silver Corp. (“Axiom” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on February 13, 2007 under the name TC Power Management Corp. and originally formed for the purpose of providing consulting services to private and public entities seeking assessment, development and implementation of energy generating solutions. Effective September 1, 2010, the Company changed its business strategy and is currently in the business of acquiring and exploring mineral properties. Accordingly, as of September 1, 2010, the Company is considered to be an exploration stage company.  On May 10, 2011, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation changing its name to Axiom Gold and Silver Corporation.  In addition, the Amendment increased the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 300,000,000 and authorized the issuance of 10,000,000 preferred shares, the terms of which may be determined by the Board of Directors without the vote of shareholders. Effective November 1, 2010, the Company enacted a four-for-one (4:1) forward stock split. All share and per share data in these consolidated financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the stock split.

On January 13, 2011, the Company entered into a material definitive agreement with Axiom Minerals de Mexico S.A. de C.V (“Axiom Mexico”) whereby through its wholly owned Mexican subsidiary, Axiom Acquisition Corp, acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Axiom Mexico, by the issuance of  two million (2,000,000) of its common shares.  The shares were issued to the shareholders of Axiom Mexico on a pro rata basis as to their ownership of Axiom Mexico.  Axiom Acquisition Corp. merged with and into Axiom Mexico and the separate corporate existence of Axiom Acquisition Corp. ceased.  Axiom Mexico, as the surviving corporation in the merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company continues its existence under its current name and continues to be governed by the laws of the state of Chihuahua, Mexico.  This acquisition was accounted for as a basic business combination with the Company as the acquirer of Axiom Mexico.

Effective May 31, 2012, the Company sold all the outstanding shares of Axiom Mexico to an unrelated entity for total consideration of $100.  The Company recognized a gain of $160,681 on the sale.  As a result of the sale, as of May 31, 2012, all the assets and liabilities of Axiom Mexico were no longer reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Note 1
Nature of Business and Basis of Financial Statement Presentation (Continued)

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statement presentation and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for complete financial statement presentation.  In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position as of May 31, 2012 and the consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2012 and 2011 and the period from inception of exploration (September 1, 2010) through May 31, 2012 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended May 31, 2012 and  2011 and the period from inception of exploration stage (September 1, 2010) through May 31, 2012.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. Reference is made to the financial statements of the Company contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2011.

Note 2
Going Concern
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis which assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has no established source of revenue, and has accumulated significant losses and an accumulated deficit during its exploration stage. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Management's plans with respect to alleviating the adverse financial conditions that caused substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern are as follows:
 
In order to implement its business plan, the Company needs to raise additional capital through equity or debt financings or through loans from shareholders or others. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully raise additional capital and eventually attain profitable operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital or execute its business strategy.

Note 3
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Other significant accounting policies are set forth in Note 3 of the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2011 annual report on Form 10-K
 
Principles of Consolidation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary, Axiom Minerals de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. effective as of the date of its acquisition January 13, 2011 through the date of its disposition, May 31, 2012.  All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Exploration Stage Company – As of September 1, 2010, the Company became an “exploration stage company” as defined in the Securities and Exchange Commission Industry Guide 7, and is subject to compliance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 915 “Development Stage Entities”.  For the period from February 13, 2007 (Inception) to August 31, 2010, the Company was a “development stage company” in accordance with ASC Topic 915.  Deficits accumulated prior to becoming an “exploration stage company” have been separately presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ deficiency.  To date, the Company’s planned principal operations have not fully commenced.

Mineral Property Costs - The Company is in the exploration stage and has not yet realized any significant revenues from its planned operations.  It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties.  Mineral property acquisition and exploration costs are currently expensed as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property are capitalized.  Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.
 
Foreign Currency Translation – Axiom Mexico considers the Mexican peso (“MXN”) to be its functional currency. Assets and liabilities were translated into US dollars (“US$”) as of May 31, 2012 at the period end exchange rate.  Income and expense amounts for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2012 and 2011 were translated using the average rates during the period.

Note 3
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Equity-Based Compensation - The Company accounts for equity based compensation transactions with employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 718, “Compensation: Stock Compensation” (“Topic No. 718”). Topic No. 718 requires the recognition of the fair value of equity-based compensation in net income. The fair value of common stock issued for compensation is measured at the market price on the date of grant.  The fair value of the Company’s equity instruments, other than common stock, is estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions and elections including expected stock price volatility and the estimated life of each award. In addition, the calculation of equity-based compensation costs requires that the Company estimate the number of awards that will be forfeited during the vesting period. The fair value of equity-based awards granted to employees is amortized over the vesting period of the award and the Company elected to use the straight-line method for awards granted after the adoption of Topic No. 718.

The Company accounts for equity based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“Topic No. 505-50”). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of common stock issued for payments to non-employees is measured at the market price on the date of grant. The fair value of equity instruments, other than common stock, is estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. In general, the Company recognizes an asset or expense in the same manner as if it was to pay cash for the goods or services instead of paying with or using the equity instrument.

Reclassification – Certain amounts in the period from inception of exploration stage (September 1, 2010) through May 31, 2012 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation used in the three and nine months ended May 31, 2012.

Note 3
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
 
Earnings (Loss) Per Share – Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share reflects the amount of earnings for the period available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period, while giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period, such as common shares that could result from the potential exercise or conversion of securities into common stock.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – On May 12, 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04.  The ASU is the result of joint efforts by the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) to develop a single, converged fair value framework.  Thus, there are few differences between the ASU and its international counterpart, IFRS 13.  This ASU is largely consistent with existing fair value measurement principles in U.S. GAAP; however it expands ASC 820’s existing disclosure requirements for fair value measurements and makes other amendments. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2011-04 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

On June 16, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, which revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements.  The new guidance removes the presentation options in ASC 220 and requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements.  The ASU does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income.  The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011.  The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2011-05 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2010-28 “When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts”. ASU 2010-28 modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test is required if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, after considering whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment may exist. ASU 2010-28 is effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2010-28 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

There are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or operating results.

Subsequent Events – In accordance with ASC 855 “Subsequent Events” the Company evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date.

The option is fully vested and expires 10 years from date of grant. The fair value of the option, $114,464, was calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The fair value of the option was charged to operations as share-based expense on the date of grant.

Effective June 17, 2011, we granted our former CFO an option to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.25 per share, the agreed upon fair value at date of grant (see Note 11). The option vests over a two year period and expires 10 years from date of grant. The fair value of the option, $114,464, was calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The fair value of the option is charged to operations as share-based expense over the vesting period.

2010 Stock Option Plan
The Plan, adopted by the Board of Directors on January 31, 2011, is intended to provide an incentive to our executive officers, directors, employees, independent contractors or agents who are responsible for or contribute to our management, growth and/or profitability. The purpose of granting options to such persons under the Plan is to attract them to consider employment with, or service to, us, to encourage their continued employment or service, and to give them incentive to provide their best efforts to us for purposes of enhancing shareholder value.

A total of up to 7,000,000 shares of our common stock have been reserved for the implementation of the Plan, either through the issuance of options to eligible persons in the form of incentive stock options or non-statutory options which are subject to restricted property treatment under Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code. Whenever practical, the Plan is to be administered by a committee of not less than two members of the Board of Directors appointed by the full Board, and the Plan has a term of ten years, unless sooner terminated by the Board. As of May 31, 2012, 2,366,667 shares of common stock are available for issuance under the plan (see Note 11).

Note 10
Income Taxes (Continued)
 
The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. federal and state income tax rates of 39% to pretax income from continuing operations for the three and nine months May 31, 2012 and 2011 due to changes in the valuation allowance.
 
At May 31, 2012, the Company had approximately $521,000 of capitalized pre-operating costs net of costs related to Axiom Mexico.  These costs are amortized in the 180 month period beginning June 1, 2011, the commencement of exploration operations. No tax benefit has been reported in the May 31, 2012 and 2011 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.
 
Based upon historical net losses and the Company being in the exploration stage, management believes that it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized and has provided a valuation allowance of 100% of the deferred tax asset.  The valuation allowance increased by approximately $67,000 and $1,878,000 in the nine months ended May 31, 2012 and the year ended August 31, 2011, respectively.
 
Axiom Mexico is subject to the following Mexican taxes:

a.
Income tax is incurred at the rate of 30%.

b.
The IETU tax is incurred at the rate of 17.5%.   The taxable base is determined by totaling the revenues collected, less certain deductions paid, including the deduction of investments.

The tax incurred is reduced by certain credits related to investment in fixed assets and inventories not deducted when the law was enacted, as well as the ISR effectively paid in the year, in such a way that the IETU will be paid only on the difference between the ISR and IETU incurred, when the latter is greater.

c.
The Cash Deposit Tax Law (LIDE) tax is incurred at the rate of 3% on cash deposits that on an accumulated basis exceed $ 15,000 a month, bearing in mind that it must be applied by each institution in the Mexican financial system. The LIDE may be credited against ISR for the same year and, as the case be, against the ISR withheld from third parties.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following information specifies certain forward-looking statements of management of the Company. Forward-looking statements are statements that estimate the happening of future events and are not based on historical fact. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as  may, shall, could, expect, estimate, anticipate, predict, probable, possible, should, continue, or similar terms, variations of those terms or the negative of those terms. The forward-looking statements specified in the following information have been compiled by our management on the basis of assumptions made by management and considered by management to be reasonable. Our future operating results, however, are impossible to predict and no representation, guaranty, or warranty is to be inferred from those forward-looking statements.

The assumptions used for purposes of the forward-looking statements specified in the following information represent estimates of future events and are subject to uncertainty as to possible changes in economic, legislative, industry, and other circumstances. As a result, the identification and interpretation of data and other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from and among reasonable alternatives require the exercise of judgment. To the extent that the assumed events do not occur, the outcome may vary substantially from anticipated or projected results, and, accordingly, no opinion is expressed on the achievability of those forward-looking statements. We cannot guaranty that any of the assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements specified in the following information are accurate, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates. Our Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section discusses our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources.

Mineral Property Costs - We are in the exploration stage and have not yet realized any significant revenues from our planned operations.  We are primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties.  Mineral property acquisition and exploration costs are currently expensed as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property are capitalized.  Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.
 

 
3

 


 
Equity-Based Compensation - We account for equity based compensation transactions with employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 718, “Compensation: Stock Compensation” (“Topic No. 718”). Topic No. 718 requires the recognition of the fair value of equity-based compensation in net income. The fair value of common stock issued for compensation is measured at the market price on the date of grant.  The fair value of our equity instruments, other than common stock, is estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions and elections including expected stock price volatility and the estimated life of each award. In addition, the calculation of equity-based compensation costs requires that we estimate the number of awards that will be forfeited during the vesting period. The fair value of equity-based awards granted to employees is amortized over the vesting period of the award, and we elected to use the straight-line method for awards granted after the adoption of Topic No. 718.

We account for equity based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“Topic No. 505-50”). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of common stock issued for payments to non-employees is measured at the market price on the date of grant. The fair value of equity instruments, other than common stock, is estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. In general, we recognize an asset or expense in the same manner as if we were to pay cash for the goods or services instead of paying with or using the equity instrument.
 
Other accounting policies are described in the notes to the financial statements included in our Annual Report. The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2011.

Overview.   We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 13, 2007, under the name TC Power Management Corp. We are in the exploration stage of our business and have not generated any revenues.  We abandoned our previous business of providing consulting services to private and public entities seeking assessment, development, and implementation of energy generating solutions in fiscal 2011 and changed our planned business activities to the exploration and development of precious metals properties.  On January 13, 2011, we entered into a material definitive agreement to acquire all of the shares of Axiom Minerals de Mexico S.A. de C.V (“Axiom Mexico”).  At the time of the acquisition there were no material relationships between Axiom Gold and Silver Corp. (“Axiom Gold and Silver”), its officers and director or its affiliates and any of the shareholders of Axiom Mexico, other than in respect to the material definitive agreement and the pooling agreement described herein.  The agreement called for Axiom Gold and Silver, through its wholly owned Mexican subsidiary, Axiom Acquisition Corp, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Axiom Mexico, by the issuance of  two million (2,000,000) common shares of Axiom Gold and Silver.

 
4

 

The shares were issued to the shareholders of Axiom Mexico on a pro rata basis as to their ownership of Axiom Mexico.  Axiom Acquisition Corp. merged with and into Axiom Mexico and the separate corporate existence of Axiom Acquisition Corp. ceased to exist.  Axiom Mexico, as the surviving corporation in the merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Axiom Gold and Silver continues its existence under its current name and continues to be governed by the laws of the state of Chihuahua, Mexico.  The Articles of Incorporation and By-laws of Axiom Mexico, as in effect immediately prior to the merger, are the articles of incorporation and by-laws of the surviving corporation in the merger until duly amended or repealed.  The members of the Board of Directors of Axiom Mexico, immediately prior to the merger have been confirmed as members of the Board of Directors of Axiom Mexico as the surviving corporation in the merger until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified in the manner provided in the articles of incorporation and by-laws of the surviving corporation in the merger, or as otherwise provided by law.  The officers of Axiom Mexico immediately prior to the merger have been confirmed as the initial officers of Axiom Mexico as the surviving corporation in the merger until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified.
 
No agent, broker, firm or other person acting on behalf of Axiom Mexico, Axiom Gold and Silver or Axiom Acquisition Corp. was entitled to any investment banking fee, commission, broker's or finder's fees in connection with this transaction.

On May 31, 2012 we sold all of our interest in Axiom Mexico to an unrelated third party for $100 releasing us from any liabilities in Axiom Mexico.

Plan of Operations

Since the sale of Axiom Mexico, our current business plan is to acquire mineral properties, focused mainly in Mexico.  At this time we do not have any such prospects available to us, and we cannot ensure that such properties will ever be acquired.

Our proposed principal product is precious metals.  Prior to production of precious metals, we must develop, mine, and smelt or further refine mineral resources, if any, located on properties that we have the right to develop.  Prior to developing precious metals, we must explore for, and determine that they are in sufficient quantities to warrant mining and selling them. In order to commence the exploration and development of precious metals properties, we will need to accomplish the following milestones:
 
1.         Acquire and Begin Exploration of Mineral Properties. We will need to raise additional funds or issue shares to pay for the cost of acquisition and exploration of any mineral properties and/or to acquire additional mineral properties.
 
2.         Hire Qualified Staff. We will need to hire qualified people to execute our business plan to explore precious metals mineral properties. We will need to raise additional funds to attract qualified people to our Company.  We do not currently have any employees and we do not intend to hire employees at this time.  Our sole officer and director will handle our administrative duties and utilize outside consultants as necessary.
 
If we are not able to negotiate suitable terms to raise capital, then we may have to suspend or cease operations. As of the filing date of this report we have raised $1,366,904 from the sale of equity but have not secured any additional financing.  If we cannot generate sufficient revenues to continue operations, we will suspend or cease operations. If we cease operations, we do not know what we will do and we do not have any plans to do anything else.

There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are currently in the exploration stage of our operations and have not generated any revenues. We may never be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns.
 
To become profitable and competitive, we have to raise additional capital to operate. Future financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.
 
We will not be conducting any product research or development. We do not expect to purchase any significant equipment.
 
To date, we have experienced significant difficulties in generating revenues and raising additional capital. We believe our inability to raise significant additional capital through debt or equity financings is due to various factors, including, but not limited to, a tightening in the equity and credit markets as well as the general turmoil in the capital markets. If we are not able to raise additional capital or generate revenues that cover our estimated operating costs, our business will ultimately fail.
 
Competition

We compete with other mining and exploration companies in connection with the acquisition of mining claims and leases on gold and other precious metals prospects and in connection with the recruitment and retention of qualified employees.  Many of these companies are much larger than us, have greater financial resources and have been in the mining business much longer than we have.  As such, these competitors may be in a better position through size, finances and experience to acquire suitable exploration properties.  We may not be able to compete against these companies in acquiring new properties and/or qualified people to work on any of our properties. There is significant competition for the limited number of gold and silver acquisition opportunities available and, as a result, we may be unable to continue to acquire attractive gold and silver mining properties on terms we consider acceptable.

Given the size of the world market for gold and silver relative to individual producers and consumers of gold and silver, we believe that no single company has sufficient market influence to significantly affect the price or supply of gold and silver in the world market.

Governmental Regulations

Our business is subject to various levels of government controls and regulations, which are supplemented and revised from time to time. Any mineral exploration activity conducted by us requires permits from governmental authorities.  The various levels of government controls and regulations address, among other things, the environmental impact of mining and mineral processing operations and establish requirements for the decommissioning of mining properties after operations have ceased. With respect to the regulation of mining and processing, legislation and regulations in various jurisdictions establish performance standards, air and water quality emission standards and other design or operational requirements for various components of operations, including health and safety standards. Legislation and regulations also establish requirements for decommissioning, reclamation and rehabilitation of mining properties following the cessation of operations, and may require that some former mining properties be managed for long periods of time. In addition, in certain jurisdictions, we may be subject to foreign investment controls and regulations governing our ability to remit earnings abroad.

The focus of our planned acquisitions and operations in Mexico are subject to a variety of governmental regulations including, among others, regulations promulgated by SEMARNAT, Mexico’s environmental protection agency; the Mexican Mining Law; and the regulations of the Comisión Nacional del Agua with respect to water rights.  Mexican regulators have broad authority to shut down and/or levy fines against facilities that do not comply with regulations or standards.  If Axiom Mexico puts any of its properties into production, operations may also be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to restrictions on production, price controls, export controls, income taxes, expropriation of property, environmental legislation and mine safety.  

The need to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permits will increase the cost of operation and may delay exploration. All permits required for the conduct of mining operations, including the construction of mining facilities, may not be obtainable, which would have an adverse effect on any mining project we might undertake.  Additionally, failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing exploration to cease or be curtailed.  Parties engaged in mining operations may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of the mining activities and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of applicable laws or regulations.

Amendments to current governmental laws and regulations affecting mining companies, or the more stringent application thereof, could adversely affect our operations.  The extent of any future changes to governmental laws and regulations cannot be predicted or quantified. Generally, new laws and regulations result in increased compliance costs, including costs for obtaining permits, delays or fines resulting from loss of permits or failure to comply with the new requirements.

Compliance with Environmental Laws

Our current exploration plan and any future mining operations are subject to extensive laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment, waste disposal, worker safety, mine construction, and protection of endangered and protected species. We have made, and expect to make in the future, significant expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations. Future changes in applicable laws, regulations and permits or changes in their enforcement or regulatory interpretation could have an adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.  In the event that we make a mineral discovery and decide to proceed to production, the costs and delays associated with compliance with these laws and regulations could stop us from proceeding with a project or the operation or further improvement of a mine or increase the costs of improvement or production.

In Mexico, we are required to submit, for government approval, a reclamation plan for each of its mining sites that establishes its obligation to reclaim property after minerals have been mined from the site. In some jurisdictions, bonds or other forms of financial assurances are required as security for these reclamation activities. We may incur significant costs in connection with these restoration activities. The unknown nature of possible future additional regulatory requirements and the potential for additional reclamation activities create uncertainties related to future reclamation costs.

Employees

Other than our President, we do not have any employees.

All mineral exploration and operations will be contracted out to third parties.  In the event that our exploration projects are successful and warrant putting any of our properties into production, such operations may also be contracted out to third parties.  We rely on our President to handle all matters related to business development and business operations.

For the three months and nine months ended May 31, 2012, as compared to the three months and nine months ended May 31, 2011.

Results of Operations

Revenues. Since inception, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business operations.  Our ability to generate revenues has been significantly hindered by our lack of capital. We expect to generate revenues as we implement our business plan.

Operating Expenses. For the nine months ended May 31, 2012, our total operating expenses was $2,131,263, as compared to total operating expenses of $3,865,524 for the nine months ended May 31, 2011. For the three month period ended May 31, 2012 our total operating expense was $355,797, as compared to total operating expense of $905,064 for the three month period ended May 31, 2011. Our total operating expenses consist primarily of exploration expenses, operations in Mexico, legal expenses, accounting expenses and stock based compensation related to being a public company. We expect that we will continue to incur significant legal and accounting expenses related to being a public company.

Net Loss.  For the nine months ended May 31, 2012, our net loss was $2,033,001, as compared to the nine months ended May 31, 2011, in which our net loss was $3,862,849.  We expect to continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future and until we generate significant revenues.  For the three month period ended May 31, 2012 our net loss was $252,131, as compared to our net loss of $902,146 for the three month period ended May 31, 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
We had cash of $329 as of May 31, 2012 and total assets of $1,729 as of that date. At August 31, 2011, we had cash of $246,233 and total assets of $321,032. The decrease is primarily due to the sale of Axiom Mexico. We are seeking to raise additional funds to meet our working capital needs principally through the sales of our securities.  As of the date of this report, during fiscal 2012 we received $285,904 in financing from one investor.  Additional funding has not been secured and no assurance may be given that we will be able to raise additional funds.   
 
As of May 31, 2012, our current liabilities were $601,024 comprised of $571,024 in accounts payable and accrued expenses (including, $199,000 owed to our CEO/President for accrued compensation and expenses), and $30,000 in notes payable to non-affiliates. As of August 31, 2011, our current liabilities were $377,122, comprised of $331,371 in accounts payable and accrued expenses, $15,751 in payables to related parties, and $30,000 in notes payable to non-affiliates. In fiscal 2011 $2,250 owed to Mr. Johnson, our former president, was waived by him and credited to additional paid-in capital. As of May 31, 2011, our current liabilities were $295,147, of which $42,443 was owed to related parties.

As of May 31, 2012 and August 31, 2011, we had two outstanding promissory notes in the amount of $10,000 (due November 9, 2011) (past due) and $20,000 (on demand) accruing interest at 8%.  We have not repaid either of the loans and no demand for payment has been made to date.  The notes are from unrelated parties and are unsecured. As of May 31, 2011, we had $30,000 in notes payable to two unrelated parties.
 
At inception, we sold 20,000,000 shares of common stock to our officers and director for $500 in cash. In 2008, we sold an additional 4,483,400 shares of common stock through our public offering for proceeds of $112,085. We have used the proceeds from the cash raised in that offering to pay the legal and accounting costs of being a public company. For the year ended August 31, 2011, we sold 4,324,000 shares of common stock through our public offering for gross proceeds of $1,081,000.  We recorded $96,850 of costs related to the offering.  We used the proceeds from this offering for general working capital to pay the costs of operations.  In December 2011, we raised $285,904 from an investor by issuing 1,143,616 shares of common stock of the Company at $0.25 per share.
 
During fiscal 2012, we expect that our business plan for exploration of mineral properties will be a significant cost to us and to complete that plan we will need to raise substantial funds.  Furthermore, if we find additional properties for acquisitions that may also require significant capital, not only for the actual acquisition but also for any exploration work that may need to be completed.  As well, the legal and accounting costs of being a public company will continue to impact our liquidity and we will need to obtain funds to pay those expenses. Other than the anticipated exploration costs, acquisition costs, increases in legal and accounting costs due to the reporting requirements of being a reporting company, we are not aware of any other known trends, events or uncertainties, which may affect our future liquidity.

In the opinion of management, available funds will not satisfy our working capital requirements to operate at our current level of activity for the next twelve months. Our forecast for the period for which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations involves risks and uncertainties and actual results could fail as a result of a number of factors. In order to implement our business plan in the manner we envision, we will need to raise additional capital.  We cannot guaranty that we will be able to raise additional funds. Moreover, in the event that we can raise additional funds, we cannot guaranty that additional funding will be available on favorable terms. In the event that we experience a shortfall in our capital, we hope that our officers, directors and principal shareholders will contribute funds to pay for our expenses to achieve our objectives over the next twelve months.  At this time, though, we do not have any arrangement with any of our officers, directors or shareholders to provide any funding for the Company.
  
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Not applicable.
 
Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of the end of the period covered by this report, in accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of Robert Knight, our Chief Executive Officer and  Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon and as of the date of that evaluation, Mr. Knight concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed and submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required.  The reason we believe our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective is because we have:

 
1.
No independent directors;
 
2.
No segregation of duties;
 
3.
No audit committee; and
 
4.
Ineffective controls over financial reporting.

Changes in internal controls. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
