NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Tresoro Mining Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 11, 2004 to promote and carry on any lawful business for which a corporation may be incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. On May 24, 2007 the Company filed Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of Nevada in order to effectuate a merger whereby the Company (as Ancor Resources, Inc.) would merge with its newly incorporated and wholly-owned subsidiary, Nu-Mex Uranium Corp. (“Nu-Mex”). This merger became effective June 4, 2007 and the Company, being the surviving entity, changed its name to Nu-Mex Uranium Corp. On February 26, 2008 the Company filed Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of Nevada in order to effectuate a merger whereby the Company (as Nu-Mex) would merge with its newly incorporated and wholly-owned subsidiary, Uranium International Corp. (“UIC”). This merger became effective as of March 11, 2008 and the Company, being the surviving entity, changed its name to Uranium International Corp. On May 17, 2010 the Company filed Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of Nevada in order to effectuate a merger whereby the Company (as UIC) would merge with its newly incorporated and wholly-owned subsidiary, Mercer Gold Corporation (“Mercer”). This merger became effective on the OTC Bulletin Board and effective with the State of Nevada on June 17, 2010 and the Company, being the surviving entity, changed its name to Mercer Gold Corporation. On August 30, 2011, the Company filed Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of Nevada in order to effectuate a merger whereby the Company (as Mercer) would merge with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tresoro Mining Corp. (“Tresoro”). This merger became effective September 15, 2011 and the Company, being the surviving entity, changed its name to Tresoro Mining Corp. The Company intends to engage in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. The Company is in the exploration stage and its operations principally involve research and development, market analysis, property evaluation and other business planning activities, and no revenue has been generated to date.

Effective June 6, 2007, the Company completed a forward stock split by the issuance of 5 new shares for each 1 outstanding share of the Company’s common stock. Further, on March 11, 2008 the Company completed a forward stock split by the issuance of 1.5 new shares for each 1 outstanding share of the Company’s common stock. Effective May 12, 2011, the Company completed a reverse stock split by the issuance of 1 new share for each 4 outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock (Note 8). Unless otherwise noted, all references herein to number of shares, price per share or weighted average shares outstanding have been adjusted to reflect these stock splits on a retroactive basis.

The Company is an exploration stage enterprise, as defined in Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification” or “ASC”) 915-10, “Development Stage Entities.” The Company is devoting all of its present efforts to securing and establishing a new business and its planned principal operations have not commenced. Accordingly, no revenue has been derived during the organization period.

Going Concern
The Company’s interim consolidated financial statements as at August 31, 2012, and for the three and six months then ended have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred operating losses since inception of $33,214,753. The Company requires additional funding to meet its ongoing obligations and anticipated ongoing operating losses. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund its initial business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to continue to fund its exploration business by way of private placements and advances from shareholders as may be required. These financials do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)

Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. They do not include all information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended February 29, 2012 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with those consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-K. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the three and six months ended August 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending February 28, 2013.

Reclassifications
Certain comparative figures on the balance sheet have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year’s financial statement presentation with no effect on earnings

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies used in the preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements.

Basis of Presentation
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to U.S. GAAP applicable to exploration stage enterprises. The functional currency is the U.S. dollar, and the consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars.

The consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mercer One Panama Corp. and Mercer Two Panama Corp. which were incorporated on June 2, 2010. All significant inter-company transactions and account balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Mineral Property Expenditures
Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized as intangible assets when purchased. At the end of each fiscal quarter, the Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment. If proven and probable reserves are established for a property and it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed, costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve.

Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred.

Estimated future removal and site restoration costs, when determinable, are provided over the life of proven reserves on a units-of-production basis. Costs, which include production equipment removal and environmental remediation, are estimated each period by management based on current regulations, actual expenses incurred, and technology and industry standards. Any charge is included in exploration expense or the provision for depletion and depreciation during the period and the actual restoration expenditures are charged to the accumulated provision amounts as incurred.

As of the date of these interim financial statements, the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties and incurred only acquisition and exploration costs.

Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, according to the usual industry standards for the stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant areas requiring management’s estimates and assumptions are the determination of the fair value of transactions involving common stock and financial instruments. Other areas requiring estimates include deferred tax balances and asset impairment tests.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash and cash equivalents as of August 31, 2012 and February 29, 2012 that exceeded federally insured limits. The Company had $1,176 in restricted cash as of August 31, 2012 (February 29, 2012 - $1,176)

Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company provides for depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from three to five years. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as they are incurred while renewals and improvements which extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. At the time of retirement or disposal of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the results of operations.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC Topic 360, formerly SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be fully recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of its asset based on estimates of its undiscounted future cash flows. If these estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment charge is recognized for the difference between the asset's estimated fair value and its carrying value. As of the date of these financial statements, the Company is not aware of any items or events that would cause it to adjust the recorded value of its long-lived assets for impairment.

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Fair Value Financial Instruments
A fair value hierarchy was established that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The fair values of the financial instruments were determined using the following input levels and valuation techniques:

Level 1:	classification is applied to any asset or liability that has a readily available quoted market price from an active market where there is significant transparency in the executed/quoted price.
Level 2:	classification is applied to assets and liabilities that have evaluated prices where the data inputs to these valuations are observable either directly or indirectly, but do not represent quoted market prices from an active market.

Level 3:

classification is applied to assets and liabilities when prices are not derived from existing market data and requires us to develop our own assumptions about how market participants would price the asset or liability.

As at August 31, 2012, the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, amounts due to related parties and promissory notes payable approximate carrying value due to their short maturities.

Foreign Currency Translation
The financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. In accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters”, foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their U.S. dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the period. Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.

NOTE 4 – MINERAL PROPERTY COSTS

(a) Guayabales Property
On April 5, 2010, the Company entered into a letter of intent (the “LOI”), dated April 3, 2010 with Mercer Gold Corp., a private Canadian corporation (“Mercer Canada”). Pursuant to the LOI, Mercer Canada has granted to the Company an exclusive option (the “Option”) to acquire all of Mercer Canada’s current underlying option interests under an option agreement, dated March 4, 2010 (the “Underlying Option Agreement”), as entered into between Mercer Canada and Comunidad Mineral Guayabales (the “Underlying Property Owner”). Pursuant to the Underlying Option Agreement, Mercer Canada acquired from the Underlying Property Owner an option (the “Underlying Option”) to acquire a 100% legal, beneficial and registerable interest in and to certain mineral property concession interest which are held by way of license. The mineral property interests are located in the Municipality of Marmato, Colombia and are better known and described as the “Guayabales” property (collectively, the “Property”).

On April 13, 2010, the Company entered into a definitive Mineral Assets Option Agreement with Mercer Canada (the “Mercer Option Agreement”). The Mercer Option Agreement replaces the previous underlying LOI. The Mercer Option Agreement, as amended on December 30, 2010 and again on March 22, 2011, provides that, in order to exercise its Option, the Company is obligated to:

1.	Pay to Mercer Canada $200,000 immediately upon the execution of the Mercer Option Agreement (the “Effective Date”) (paid on April 14, 2010);
2.	Issue to Mercer Canada, both prior to and after the due and complete exercise of the Options, an aggregate of up to 5,000,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, as follows:

	-	an initial issuance of 2,500,000 shares within two business days of the Effective Date (issued on April 15, 2010); and
	-	a final issuance of 2,500,000 shares within five business days of the Company’s prior receipt of a “technical report” (as that term is defined in section 1.1 of National Instrument 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) meeting certain criteria) (as at August 31, 2012, no technical report has been prepared);

In the event an optionee ceases to be employed or to provide services to the Company for reasons other than cause, any Stock Option that is vested and held by such optionee may be exercisable within up to ninety calendar days after the effective date that his position ceases. No Stock Option granted under the Stock Option Plan is transferable. Any Stock Option held by an optionee at the time of his death may be exercised by his estate within one year of his death or such longer period as the Board of Directors may determine.

Effective November 30, 2010, concurrent with the cancellation of the 2008 Stock Option Plan, 1,125,000 outstanding options were cancelled and immediately replaced with 1,125,000 options in the newly adopted 2010 Stock Option Plan.

The Company is subject to certain outstanding and future commitments related to its mineral property interests (Note 4).

On June 9, 2011, Rahim Jivraj, a former officer and director of the Company filed an action against the Company in the Supreme Court of British Columbia. The plaintiff alleges that the Company owes him certain monies for payment under an alleged promissory note as well as pursuant to certain alleged management fees, expenses and disbursements which is asserted were incurred by the plaintiff in the plaintiff’s prior role as an officer and director of the Company. The Company is of the view that such allegations are without merit and has and intends to vigorously contest the action. On July 13, 2011, the Company filed a defence to this action and a counterclaim against the plaintiff denying that any monies are owing and seeking damages against the plaintiff for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty and misrepresentation.

NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (continued)

On July 11, 2011, Mercer Gold Corp. ("Mercer BC"), a privately held British Columbia company which is owned and/or controlled by Mr. Jivraj, delivered a letter to the Company which purported to allege defaults (the "First Notice of Default") under the Company's existing Mineral Assets Option Agreement, dated for reference effective as at April 13, 2010 (the "Option Agreement"), with Mercer BC, with respect to the Guayables Gold Project in Columbia. It is the Company's position that the allegations of default re without merit and the letter was not valid notice of default under the Option Agreement.

On July 19, 2011, the Company responded and advised Mercer BC as to its position with respect to each allegation of default in the First Notice of Default.

On August 25, 2011, Mercer BC delivered a letter to the Company, which purported to terminate the Option Agreement on the basis that the alleged defaults had not been cured. The Company regards Mercer BC's position as without merit and considers the purported termination to be invalid. The Company intends to continue as operator of the mineral property interest underlying the project as set forth in the Option Agreement.

On September 9, 2011, the Company gave notice to Mercer BC that it intends to commence arbitration proceedings to address the validity of the termination.

On September 13, 2011, the Company filed an amended counterclaim as against Mr. Jivraj. The counterclaim seeks an order requiring Mr. Jivraj to disgorge to the Company all of his shares in Mercer BC together with restitution of all benefits he received from the Company while serving as its President. The Company also seeks damages, including aggravated and punitive damages. The counterclaim alleges that Mr. Jivraj acted in a conflict of interest, while President of the Company, by reason of his failure to divest himself of his interest in Mercer BC. It alleges that he formed a plan to use funds raised by the Company to develop the Option Agreement property interests, and then took active steps to put the Company in a position where it might default under the Option Agreement. It is alleged that he then resigned from the Company and resumed his position as President of Mercer BC in order to assist Mercer BC in reacquiring these property interests so that he could vend the property interests to another third party for new consideration. The counterclaim alleges that Mr. Jivraj has attempted to usurp a mature business opportunity belonging to the Company by assisting Mercer BC in issuing the default notice and the termination notice, in breach of fiduciary duty. In addition, the counterclaim alleges that Mr. Jivraj has interfered with the Company's economic interests using unlawful means, including fraud, deceit, conversion, slander of title and defamation. The counterclaim includes particulars of unlawful conduct, including an attempt by Mr. Jivraj to convince a Company consultant to assist him in triggering a default under the Option Agreement by ensuring that a third party service supplier was not paid.

On September 20, 2011 the Company filed a notice of application against each of Mr. Jivraj and Mercer BC, seeking an injunction against Mr. Jivraj and Mercer BC to restrain them from interfering with the Company's activities as operator of the Guayabales Gold Project in Colombia and from interfering with the Company's rights as optionee under the Option Agreement, pending conclusion of arbitration.

On October 3, 2011, Mercer BC filed a Response to Civil Claim, and on October 11, 2011 Mercer BC filed a Counterclaim, joining the members of the Company's Board of Directors as defendants. These pleadings have been filed in opposition to the Company's claim seeking an interlocutory injunction pending arbitration of the parties' dispute concerning Mercer BC's purported termination of the Option Agreement. The Counterclaim seeks, among other things, a declaration that the Option Agreement is void and/or rescission of the Option Agreement. The Counterclaim also seeks damages. The Company denies all of the claims made in the Counterclaim as malicious, spurious and without factual basis.

On December 6, 2011 the British Columbia Supreme Court (the "Court") issued Reasons for Judgment (the "Reasons for Judgment") granting an injunction against both Mr. Jivraj and Mercer BC, enjoining each of them from taking any steps to interfere with the Company's role as operator of the Guayabales Gold Project located in Colombia (the "Property") and interfering with the Option Agreement, pending completion of the arbitration proceeding commenced by the Company with respect to such matter (the "Arbitration Proceeding"). The Court has also ordered that a counterclaim filed by Mercer BC in the Court shall be stayed.

NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (continued)

The Court rejected Mercer BC's application to stay the Arbitration Proceeding commenced by the Company. Mercer BC had argued that the Company was barred from seeking arbitration to challenge Mercer BC's termination of the Option Agreement. The Court determined that the Company was not barred and that the issues sought to be determined by the Company are appropriately advanced in the Arbitration Proceeding now being administered by the British Columbia International Commercial Arbitration Centre.

In the Reasons for Judgment, the Court has also ordered each of Mercer BC and Mr. Jivraj to disclose, within 24 hours, the names of all persons and entities with whom Mr. Jivraj has discussed a possible sale or deal concerning the Property since March 28, 2011, and to refrain from communicating with any person or entity for the purpose of discussing a possible agreement concerning the Property in a manner inconsistent with the Company's continuing role as optionee and operator of the Property, pending the Arbitration Proceeding. The Court has further restrained Mr. Jivraj from taking any steps to transfer his shares in Mercer BC and the Company to any third party.

On December 21, 2011, Mercer BC delivered a letter to the Company providing notice of default (the “Second Notice of Default”) which purported to allege default by the Company under section 2.2(c)(i) of the Option Agreement as amended by the Company and Mercer BC on or about March 22, 2011.

On December 29, 2011, the Company responded and advised Mercer BC that the Company disputes the validity of the Second Notice of Default, that it denies that such default has occurred and that it is submitting the question to arbitration.

On January 9, 2012, the Company filed a notice to arbitrate the Second Notice of Default with Mercer BC and the British Columbia International Commercial Arbitration Centre pursuant to Article 16.2 of the Option Agreement (“Arbitration Proceeding #2), whereby the Company is seeking: (i) a declaration that the Second Notice of Default is invalid; (ii) in the alternative, a declaration that the Company was not in default as alleged in the Second Notice of Default; and (ii) an order requiring Mercer BC to pay to the Company costs of the arbitration.

On January 13, 2012, the arbitrators (the “Arbitrators”) of the Arbitration Proceeding dealing with the First Notice of Default ordered the Company and Mercer BC to post $35,000 each as security for the Arbitrators’ fees. The Company complied with this order, however, Mercer BC has not.

On February 16, 2012, the Company applied to the Arbitration Proceeding to strike portions of Mercer BC’s defense on the basis that it raised factual issues, which were beyond the jurisdiction of the Arbitration Proceeding. The Company’s application was dismissed, however, in responding to the application, Mercer BC withdrew a further allegation of default, leaving only two remaining allegations of default from the original ten grounds of default contained in the First Notice of Default.

On February 29, 2012, the Arbitration Proceeding #2 dealing with the Second Notice of Default was settled on the basis that Mercer BC withdrew the Second Notice of Default, without prejudice to its ability to assert default on the same grounds after December 31, 2012.

On March 5, 2012, the Arbitrators provided Mercer BC with a further 14 days to comply with the payment order, however, Mercer BC failed to comply with such order.

On March 19, 2012, the Arbitrators declared the termination notice that was issued by Mercer BC to the Company on August 25, 2011 as invalid.

On May 2, 2012, the Arbitrators ordered that the Arbitration Proceedings shall be suspended until such time as Mercer BC complies with its order.

On August 6, 2012, the Company commenced an action against Rahim Jivraj and Mercer BC in US Federal Court under Civil Action number C12-1325 MJP. The Complaint against Jivraj and Mercer BC includes Federal Securities Fraud, Controlling Person Liability, Defamation, Breach of Fiduciary Duty, and Tortious.Breach of Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing. The claim is for compensatory damages, which claim may exceed US $43 million, presumed defamation damages and punitive damages, and return of the ten million shares of the Company's stock held by Jivraj and his nominees, as well as legal fees and costs.

The Company delivered a notice on October 11, 2012 that in 14 days it intends to take a default judgment against Rahim Jivraj and Mercer BC.

Item 2.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion of our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations for the six months ended August 31, 2012 and 2011 should be read in conjunction with our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes for the six months ended August 31, 2012 and 2011. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to, those referred to under the heading “Risk Factors” in Item 1A. to Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012.

Overview of Our Business

We are currently engaged in the business of exploration of precious metals with a focus on the exploration and development of gold deposits in Colombia. As of the date of this quarterly report, our mineral interest consists of an option agreement on an exploration stage property as discussed below. We have not established any proven or probable reserves on our mineral property interest. There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on our property interest. Further exploration will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility is determined with respect to our mineral property interest.

At the present time, our primary property of interest is the Guayabales Property, Colombia as described below.

Mineral Properties – Guayabales Property, Colombia

Mineral Assets Option Agreement

On April 13, 2010, we entered into a definitive Mineral Assets Option Agreement (the “Definitive Option Agreement”) with Mercer Gold Corporation, a private mining company (“MGC”), pursuant to which MGC formally granted to us an exclusive option (the “Option”) to acquire all of MGC’s current underlying option interests under a certain “Option Agreement”, dated for reference March 4, 2010 (the “Underlying Option Agreement”), as entered into between MGC and Comunidad Minera Guayabales (the “Underlying Property Owner” or “CMG”), pursuant to which MGC acquired from the Underlying Property Owner an option (the “Underlying Option”) to acquire a 100% legal, beneficial and registerable interest in and to certain mineral property concession interests which are held by way of license and which are located in the municipality of Marmato, Colombia, and which are better known and described as the “Guayabales” property (collectively, the “Guayabales Property”). The Definitive Option Agreement replaces an underlying letter of intent by and between and MGC and us, dated April 3, 2010.

The Definitive Option Agreement provides that, in order to exercise our Option, we are obligated to:

1.	Pay to MGC $200,000 immediately upon the execution of the Definitive Option Agreement (the “Effective Date”) (paid on April 14, 2010);

Title to Property and Underlying Option Agreement

CMG, a Colombian legal entity, is the rightful owner of the concession contract #LH 0071-17, an exploitation license valid until March 28, 2032, that was registered on March 28, 2008 by INGEOMINAS in the Department of Caldas (registration #HHXB 01). As described above, MGC, a privately-held, Canadian entity registered in British Colombia, entered into an Option Agreement “Underlying Option Agreement” with CMG on March 4, 2010 to acquire a 100% interest in Guayabales. The Company entered into the Definitive Option Agreement with MGC as described above to acquire the 100% interest of Guayabales subject to the terms of the Underlying Option Agreement. No surface agreements are in place; however, CMG represents and warrants reasonable surface access to Guayabales in the Underlying Option Agreement and the Colombian Mining Code guarantees surface access.

In Colombia, all mineral rights are the property of the government of Colombia. Obtaining a mining right does not transfer ownership of the mineral estate, but creates a temporary right to explore and benefit from minerals in exchange for royalty payments so long as the mining title remains in good standing. Under Colombian mining law, foreign individuals and corporations have the same rights as Colombian individuals and corporations, and Colombian governmental regulatory bodies are specifically prohibited from requiring any additional or different requirements than would be required of a Colombian individual or corporation.

Subject to the Definitive Option Agreement as described above, the Company is responsible for all obligations established in the Underlying Option Agreement between MGC and CMG in order to complete the 100% acquisition of the Guayabales Property. These obligations include cash payments; provision for allowing continued Limited Mining Rights as described below; property maintenance; and quarterly reports. More specifically, these include:

	1.	Cash Payments: The Company is responsible to make cash payments to CMG as described above.
	2.	Limited Mining Rights: The Company provides CMG with Limited Mining Rights, allowing the cooperative group of miners belonging to the entity to continue mining operations on the property. Operations are not to exceed 80 metric tonnes per day, providing that the mining operations are restricted to geographic areas in which mining operations are currently being conducted. The Company has the right to terminate this right to mine, by either completing the cash payment schedule described above, or by making a one time cash payment of $600,000.
	3.	Property Maintenance: The Company is obligated to maintain the property in good standing, free and clear of all liens, charges and encumbrances.
	4.	Property Reports: The Company is obligated to provide CMG with summary operating reports on a 3 month/quarterly schedule.

Technical Report

We received a technical report in accordance with the provisions of National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”), of the Canadian Securities Administrators for the Guayabales Property, which is located in the Department of Caldas, Colombia. The complete technical report, which was authored by Dean D. Turner, C.P.G., a qualified person as defined in NI 43-101, was filed under our Company’s profile on the Canadian Securities Administrators public disclosure website, at www.sedar.com, on May 28, 2010. Mr. Turner prepared an update to this technical report, dated February 8, 2011.

- 8 -

On February 16, 2011, Tresoro issued a news release that it had received an updated Technical Report on the Guayabales Gold Project, and inadvertently failed to file such updated Technical Report which was required pursuant to section 4.2(1)(f) of NI 43-101 since the annual information form for the year ended February 28, 2011 included inadvertent disclosure that the updated Technical Report contained measured, indicated and inferred mineral resource estimates for the Guayabales Project. Since Tresoro has a newly updated Technical Report, having an effective date of July 31, 2012, it will be filing this newly updated Technical Report, which was prepared by A.C.A. Howe International Limited, in the very near future instead of the previously updated Technical Report, dated February 8, 2011.

Plan of Operations

We have decided to reduce the work program for the next 12 months while we review our forward plan in depth and estimate we will spend about $1,000,000 over the next 12 months. Further, we expect to spend approximately $300,000 in the next 12 months in office and general expenses and professional, consulting and management fees.

Based on our current plan of operations as set forth above, we estimate that we will require approximately $1.3 million to pursue our plan of operations over the next twelve months. As at August 31, 2012, we had cash of $1,095 and a working capital deficit of $(3,579,985). We will require additional financing to pursue our plan of operations over the next twelve months. There can be no assurance that we will obtain any additional financing in the amounts required or on terms favorable to us. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may have to re-evaluate or abandon our business activities and revise our plan of operations.

We anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. However, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund our plan of operations going forward. In the absence of such financing, our business plan will fail. Even if we are successful in obtaining equity financing, there is no assurance that we will obtain the funding necessary to pursue our business plan. If we do not continue to obtain additional financing going forward, we will be forced to re-evaluate or abandon our plan of operations.

We are an exploration stage company and have not generated any revenue to date. The following table sets forth selected financial information relating to our Company for the periods indicated:

Six Months Ended August 31, 2012 Compared to Six Months Ended August 31, 2011

During the six months ended August 31, 2012 and August 31, 2011 we did not generate any revenue.

During the six months ended August 31, 2012 we incurred general and administrative expenses of $453,277 compared to $1,228,588 incurred during the six months ended August 31, 2011. The major components of our general and administrative expenses for the six months ended August 31, 2012 and 2011 consisted of the following:

• consulting fees of $29,185 in 2012 (2011 - $20,000),

• interest expense of $99,158 in 2012 (2011 - $48,283), increased between 2011 and 2012 due to increase in debt;

• legal and accounting fees of $137,032 in 2012 (2011 - $102,468), ), which increased between 2011 and 2012 due to legal actions related to the Guayabales property;

• management fees of $58,067 in 2012 (2011 - $32,575);

• marketing and promotion costs of Nil in 2012 (2011 - $35,590), which decreased between 2011 and 2012 as we decreased focus on these activities;

• mineral property development expenditures of $131,733 in 2012 (2011 - $754,420), which decreased between 2011 and 2012 due to decreased exploration activity on the Guayabales property;

• office and miscellaneous expenses of $61,582 (2011 - $102,660), which decreased between 2011 and 2012 due to decreased exploration activity on the Guayabales property;

• rent of $30,000 in 2012 (2011 - $56,219) which decreased from 2011 to 2012 as we decreased our activity on the Guayabales property; and

• stock-based compensation of Nil in 2012 (2011 - $123,995), which decreased between 2011 and 2012 due to reduced issuance of stock options.

Our general and administrative expenses incurred during the six months ended August 31, 2012 compared to the six months ended August 31, 2011 decreased primarily due to a decrease in exploration activity on the Guayabales property offset somewhat by increased legal fees for legal actions related to the Guayabales property.

During the six months ended August 31, 2012, we recorded interest expense in the amount of $(99,158) (2011: $(48,283)) and taxes of $(8,257) ( 2011-$Nil).

As a result of the above, our net loss during the six months ended August 31, 2012 was $(560,692) (2011-$(1,276,871)).

Three Months Ended August 31, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended August 31, 2011

During the three months ended August 31, 2012 and August 31, 2011 we did not generate any revenue.

During the three months ended August 31, 2012 we incurred general and administrative expenses of $252,945 compared to $195,129 incurred during the three months ended August 31, 2011. The major components of our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2012 and 2011 consisted of the following:

• consulting fees of $29,185 in 2012 (2011 - $7,000), which increased between 2011 and 2012 due to technical analysis related to the exploration activity on the Guayabales property;

• legal and accounting fees of $42,017 in 2012 (2011 – $71,417), which increased between 2011 and 2012 due to legal actions related to the Guayabales property;

• management fees of $26,570 in 2012 (2011 - $13,393), which increased between 2011 and 2012 due to one additional director/officer;

• marketing and promotion costs of $Nil in 2012 (2011 - $35,590), which decreased between 2011 and 2012 as we decreased focus on these activities;

• mineral property exploration expenditures of $91,926 in 2012 (2011 - $70,711);

• office and miscellaneous expenses of $45,349 in 2012 (2011 – $17,858); and

• rent of $15,000 in 2012 (2011 - $12,043);

Our general and administrative expenses incurred during the three months ended August 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended August 31, 2011 increased primarily due to technical analysis related to the exploration activity on the Guayabales property.

During the three months ended August 31, 2012, we recorded interest expense in the amount of $(52,629) (2011: $(24,961)) and taxes of $(4,252) ( 2011-$Nil).

As a result of the above, our net loss during the three months ended August 31, 2012 was $(309,826) (2011-$(220,090)).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As at August 31, 2012, our current assets were $1,095 (February 29, 2012 - $9,747) and our current liabilities were $3,581,080 (February 29, 2012 - $2,974,508), which resulted in a working capital deficit of $(3,579,985) compared to a working capital deficit of $(2,964,761) at February 29, 2012.

Total Stockholders’ equity decreased from $2,787,053 at February 29, 2012 to $2,226,364 at August 31, 2012.

Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities

We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities. For the six months ended August 31, 2012, net cash flows used in operating activities was ($398,014) consisting primarily of a net loss of ($560,692). Net cash flows used in operating activities was adjusted by $99,158 in accrued interest on the promissory notes and $5,678 in depreciation of property and equipment. Net cash flows used in operating activities was further changed by $(75,458) in decrease of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and $133,300 in increase in due to related parties.

For the six months ended August 31, 2011, net cash flows used in operating activities was ($479,335) consisting primarily of a net loss of ($1,276,871).

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

For the six months ended August 31, 2012, net cash flows used in investing activities was $(60,213) compared to net cash flows used in investing activities during the six months ended August 31, 2011 of ($149,514). This change was primarily as a result of option payments to Comunidad for the Guayabales Property.

Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities

We have financed our operations primarily from either advancements or the issuance of equity and debt instruments. For the six months ended August 31, 2012, net cash flows provided from financing activities was $449,575 compared to $524,700 for the six months ended August 31, 2011. Cash flows from financing activities for the six months ended August 31, 2012 consisted of $554,575 in advances on promissory notes and $(105,000) in repayment on promissory notes. Cash flows from financing activities for the six months ended August 31, 2011 consisted of $142,200 in advances on promissory notes and $(25,000) in repayment on promissory notes, $400,000 for common shares issued for cash and $7,500 in advances from related parties.

We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase as we expand our exploration activities as set forth above under “Plan of Operations”.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our condensed interim financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

Basis of Presentation

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to U.S. GAAP applicable to exploration stage enterprises. The functional currency is the U.S. dollar, and the financial statements are presented in U. S. dollars.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mercer One Panama Corp. and Mercer Two Panama Corp. All significant inter-company transactions and account balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Mineral Property Expenditures

Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized as tangible assets when purchased. At the end of each fiscal quarter end, the Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment. If proven and probable reserves are established for a property and it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed, costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve.

Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred.

---

- 12 -

Estimated future removal and site restoration costs, when determinable are provided over the life of proven reserves on a units-of-production basis. Costs, which include production equipment removal and environmental remediation, are estimated each period by management based on current regulations, actual expenses incurred, and technology and industry standards. Any charge is included in exploration expense or the provision for depletion and depreciation during the period and the actual restoration expenditures are charged to the accumulated provision amounts as incurred.

As of the date of these financial statements, the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties and incurred only acquisition and exploration costs.

Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, according to the usual industry standards for the stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.

Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company has adopted ASC 410, “Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations”, which requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred. ASC 410 requires the Company to record a liability for the present value of the estimated site restoration costs with corresponding increase to the carrying amount of the related long-lived assets. The liability will be accreted and the asset will be depreciated over the life of the related assets. Adjustments for changes resulting from the passage of time and changes to either the timing or amount of the original present value estimate underlying the obligation will be made. There were no asset retirement obligations as at August 31, 2012.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant areas requiring management’s estimates and assumptions are the determination of the fair value of transactions involving common stock and financial instruments. Other areas requiring estimates include deferred tax balances and asset impairment tests.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash and cash equivalents as of August 31, 2012 and February 29, 2012 that exceeded federally insured limits.

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

---

- 13 -

Income Taxes

The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment. As at August 31, 2012, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards, however, due to the uncertainty of realization, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets resulting from these loss carryforwards.

Foreign Currency Translation

The financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. In accordance with ASC 830 “Foreign Currency Matters”, foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their U.S. dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the period. Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

On June 1, 2006, the Company adopted ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee services. Under the provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employees’ requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant). The Company adopted ASC 718 using the modified prospective method, which requires the Company to record compensation expense over the vesting period for all awards granted after the date of adoption, and for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding at the date of adoption. Accordingly, financial statements for the periods prior to January 1, 2006 have not been restated to reflect the fair value method of expensing share-based compensation. The adoption of ASC 718 does not change the way the Company accounts for share-based payments to non-employees, with guidance provided by ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. This ASU presents an entity with the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. This update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments in this update do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. As ASU 2011-05 relates only to the presentation of Comprehensive Income, the Company does not expect that the adoption of this update will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Funding for Plan of Operations

As set forth above under “Plan of Operations”, we anticipate that we will required approximately $1.3 million over the next twelve months to pursue our Plan of Operations. We will require additional financing in order to be able to fund our plan of operations.

Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt instruments. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in exploration expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) exploration properties; and (ii) future exploration property acquisitions. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of securities, and debt issuances. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long-term operating requirements. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

On June 9, 2011, Rahim Jivraj, a former officer and director of the Company filed an action against the Company in the Supreme Court of British Columbia. The plaintiff alleges that the Company owes him certain monies for payment under an alleged promissory note as well as pursuant to certain alleged management fees, expenses and disbursements which is asserted were incurred by the plaintiff in the plaintiff's prior role as an officer and director of the Company. The Company is of the view that such allegations are without merit and intends to vigorously contest the action. On July 13, 2011, the Company filed a defence to this action and a counterclaim against the plaintiff denying that any monies are owing and seeking damages against the plaintiff for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty and misrepresentation.

On July 11, 2011, Mercer Gold Corp. ("Mercer BC"), a privately held British Columbia company which is owned and/or controlled by Mr. Jivraj, delivered a letter to the Company which purported to allege defaults (the “First Notice of Default”) under the Company's existing Mineral Assets Option Agreement, dated for reference effective as at April 13, 2010 (the "Option Agreement"), with Mercer BC, with respect to the Guayabales Gold Project in Columbia. It is the Company's position that the allegations of default are without merit and the letter was not valid notice of default under the Option Agreement.

- 15 -

On July 19, 2011, the Company responded and advised Mercer BC as to its position with respect to each allegation of default in the First Notice of Default.

On August 25, 2011, Mercer BC delivered a letter to the Company, which purported to terminate the Option Agreement on the basis that the alleged defaults had not been cured. The Company regards Mercer BC's position as without merit and considers the purported termination to be invalid. The Company intends to continue as operator of the mineral property interests underlying the project as set forth in the Option Agreement.

On September 9, 2011, the Company gave notice to Mercer BC that it intends to commence arbitration proceedings to address the validity of the termination.

On September 13, 2011, the Company filed an amended counterclaim as against Mr. Jivraj. The counterclaim seeks an order requiring Mr. Jivraj to disgorge to the Company all of his shares in Mercer BC together with restitution of all benefits he received from the Company while serving as its President. The Company also seeks damages, including aggravated and punitive damages. The counterclaim alleges that Mr. Jivraj acted in a conflict of interest, while President of the Company, by reason of his failure to divest himself of his interest in Mercer BC. It alleges that he formed a plan to use funds raised by the Company to develop the Option Agreement property interests, and then took active steps to put the Company in a position where it might default under the Option Agreement. It is alleged that he then resigned from the Company and resumed his position as President of Mercer BC in order to assist Mercer BC in reacquiring these property interests so that he could vend the property interests to another third party for new consideration. The counterclaim alleges that Mr. Jivraj has attempted to usurp a mature business opportunity belonging to the Company by assisting Mercer BC in issuing the default notice and the termination notice, in breach of fiduciary duty. In addition, the counterclaim alleges that Mr. Jivraj has interfered with the Company's economic interests using unlawful means, including fraud, deceit, conversion, slander of title and defamation. The counterclaim includes particulars of unlawful conduct, including an attempt by Mr. Jivraj to convince a Company consultant to assist him in triggering a default under the Option Agreement by ensuring that a third party service supplier was not paid.

On September 20, 2011 the Company filed a notice of application against each of Mr. Jivraj and Mercer BC, seeking an injunction against Mr. Jivraj and Mercer BC to restrain them from interfering with the Company's activities as operator of the Guayabales Gold Project in Colombia and from interfering with the Company's rights as optionee under the Option Agreement, pending conclusion of arbitration.

On October 3, 2011, Mercer BC filed a Response to Civil Claim, and on October 11, 2011 Mercer BC filed a Counterclaim, joining the members of the Company's Board of Directors as defendants. These pleadings have been filed in opposition to the Company's claim seeking an interlocutory injunction pending arbitration of the parties' dispute concerning Mercer BC's purported termination of the Option Agreement. The Counterclaim seeks, among other things, a declaration that the Option Agreement is void and/or rescission of the Option Agreement. The Counterclaim also seeks damages. The Company denies all of the claims made in the Counterclaim as malicious, spurious and without factual basis.

On December 6, 2011 the British Columbia Supreme Court (the "Court") issued Reasons for Judgment (the "Reasons for Judgment") granting an injunction against both Mr. Jivraj and Mercer BC, enjoining each of them from taking any steps to interfere with the Company's role as operator of the Guayabales Gold Project located in Colombia (the "Property") and interfering with the Option Agreement, pending completion of the arbitration proceeding commenced by the Company with respect to such matter (the "Arbitration Proceeding"). The Court has also ordered that a counterclaim filed by Mercer BC in the Court shall be stayed.

The Court rejected Mercer BC's application to stay the Arbitration Proceeding commenced by the Company. Mercer BC had argued that the Company was barred from seeking arbitration to challenge Mercer BC's termination of the Option Agreement. The Court determined that the Company was not barred and that the issues sought to be determined by the Company are appropriately advanced in the Arbitration Proceeding now being administered by the British Columbia International Commercial Arbitration Centre.

In the Reasons for Judgment, the Court has also ordered each of Mercer BC and Mr. Jivraj to disclose, within 24 hours, the names of all persons and entities with whom Mr. Jivraj has discussed a possible sale or deal concerning the Property since March 28, 2011, and to refrain from communicating with any person or entity for the purpose of discussing a possible agreement concerning the Property in a manner inconsistent with the Company's continuing role as optionee and operator of the Property, pending the Arbitration Proceeding. The Court has further restrained Mr. Jivraj from taking any steps to transfer his shares in Mercer BC and the Company to any third party.

On December 21, 2011, Mercer BC delivered a letter to the Company providing notice of default (the “Second Notice of Default”) which purported to allege default by the Company under section 2.2(c)(i) of the Option Agreement as amended by the Company and Mercer BC on or about March 22, 2011.

On December 29, 2011, the Company responded and advised Mercer BC that the Company disputes the validity of the Second Notice of Default, that it denies that such default has occurred and that it is submitting the question to arbitration.

On January 9, 2012, the Company filed a notice to arbitrate the Second Notice of Default with Mercer BC and the British Columbia International Commercial Arbitration Centre pursuant to Article 16.2 of the Option Agreement (“Arbitration Proceeding #2), whereby the Company is seeking: (i) a declaration that the Second Notice of Default is invalid; (ii) in the alternative, a declaration that the Company was not in default as alleged in the Second Notice of Default; and (ii) an order requiring Mercer BC to pay to the Company costs of the arbitration.

On January 13, 2012, the arbitrators (the “Arbitrators”) of the Arbitration Proceeding dealing with the First Notice of Default ordered the Company and Mercer BC to post $35,000 each as security for the Arbitrators’ fees. The Company complied with this order, however, Mercer BC has not.

On February 16, 2012, the Company applied to the Arbitration Proceeding to strike portions of Mercer BC’s defense on the basis that it raised factual issues, which were beyond the jurisdiction of the Arbitration Proceeding. The Company’s application was dismissed, however, in responding to the application, Mercer BC withdrew a further allegation of default, leaving only two remaining allegations of default from the original ten grounds of default contained in the First Notice of Default.

On February 29, 2012, the Arbitration Proceeding #2 dealing with the Second Notice of Default was settled on the basis that Mercer BC withdrew the Second Notice of Default, without prejudice to its ability to assert default on the same grounds after December 31, 2012.

On March 5, 2012, the Arbitrators provided Mercer BC with a further 14 days to comply with the payment order, however, Mercer BC failed to comply with such order.

On March 19, 2012, the Arbitrators declared the termination notice that was issued by Mercer BC to the Company on August 25, 2011 as invalid.

On May 2, 2012, the Arbitrators ordered that the Arbitration Proceedings shall be suspended until such time as Mercer BC complies with its order.

On August 6, 2012, the Company commenced an action against Rahim Jivraj and Mercer BC in US Federal Court under Civil Action number C12-1325 MJP. The Complaint against Jivraj and Mercer BC includes Federal Securities Fraud, Controlling Person Liability, Defamation, Breach of Fiduciary Duty, and Tortious.Breach of Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing. The claim is for compensatory damages, which claim may exceed US $43 million, presumed defamation damages and punitive damages, and return of the ten million shares of the Company's stock held by Jivraj and his nominees, as well as legal fees and costs.

The Company delivered a notice on October 11, 2012 that in 14 days it intends to take a default judgment against Rahim Jivraj and Mercer BC.
