NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
U.S. Precious Metals, Inc. was incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1998 as a mineral exploration company. U.S. Precious Metals, Inc. and its wholly owned Mexican subsidiary company, U.S. Precious Metals de Mexico, S.A. de C.V, ("U.S. Precious Metals Mexico"), (collectively "the Company", "We" or "Us")   are engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. We currently focus on gold and base minerals primarily located in the State of Michoacán, Mexico where we own exploration and exploitation concessions to approximately 37,000 contiguous acres of land (the "Solidaridad Property").

The Company has acquired exploration or exploitation concessions to approximately 37,000 acres of land in Michoacán, Mexico. Below is a list of the concessions which the Company has acquired:

*A Hectare is equivalent to 2.47 acres.
The above group of concessions are collectively referred to as the "Solidaridad Concessions" The Company's concessions have a term of fifty years from the date first acquired and can be renewed for another fifty years. Concessions grant the holder the right to explore and exploit all minerals found in the ground. In order to maintain the concessions, the Company must pay surface taxes semi-annually in January and July and perform minimum amounts of assessment work, on a calendar year basis. Assessment work reports are required to be filed annually in May for the preceding calendar year. The amount of surface taxes and annual assessments are set by regulation and may increase over the life of the concession and include periodic adjustments for inflation.
Mining concessions do not automatically grant the holder the right to enter or use the surface land of the property where such mining concessions are located. In order to access the surface land, the holder must obtain permission from the surface owner. The Company currently has secured access rights to the portions of the Solidaridad Property where its concessions Solidaridad I, Solidaridad III, and Solidaridad V are located by way of a written agreement entered into by and between its Mexican Subsidiary and the owners of the portions of the Solidaridad Property where these concessions are located. This agreement requires the Company to pay an annual rent to the landowner. The Company is in the process of securing, but has not yet secured, access rights to the other portions of the Solidaridad Property, which it plans to do in the future in connection with any decision to begin exploration and/or exploitation of those areas. If the Company is ultimately unable to receive access, or unable to receive access at a reasonable price, it may affect the ability of the Company to explore for, or exploit, mineralized material from those areas.

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2014 AND 2013

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS CONTINUED
 
Original Transaction with Resource Technology Corp
On May 11, 2013, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Resource Technology Corp., a newly formed Florida corporation ("RTC"), and the RTC shareholders to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of RTC in exchange for 300 million shares of common stock of the Company.  The agreement was subject to shareholder approval along with shareholder approval to increase the authorized number of shares of common stock to 480 million. As part of the transaction, RTC had three ore supply contracts with third party suppliers, and a Plasmafication™ Toll Processing Agreement with Plasma Processing, LP., a Florida limited partnership ("PP LP") and an affiliated entity of RTC. The ore supply agreements and the Toll Processing Agreement would enable RTC to receive 1/3rd of the revenues derived from the plasma processing of ore concentrates from the ore supply agreements.
The Plasma Plant and Plasma Processing.
PP LP owned the right to operate a plasma processing facility located in 29 Palms, California. The plant took three years to build and is permitted to process ore concentrate. Plasmafication™ or plasma processing employs extreme temperatures (in excess of 7,000 F) to dissociate ore concentrates into their basic elemental state. At the time of the transaction, the plant is not in commercial production.  The parties at the time believed that initial upgrades to the facility will commence within 90 to 120 days which will enable the facility to process concentrates at the rate of approximately 9 tons/day. PP LP expected to make further upgrades to the facility which would increase its capacity to approximately 27 tons/day.  These upgrades were subject to PP LP raising funds sufficient to complete necessary improvements to its plasma processing plant.
Plasmafication™ Toll Processing Agreement.
The Toll Processing Agreement between PP LP and RTC required PP LP to deliver a range of services, including the Plasmafication™   of the RTC concentrate from the ore supply contracts. These services would be provided at the sole cost and expense of PP LP. The agreement required an initial processing capacity of 5 tons/day of RTC concentrate for approximately 200 days per annum. PP LP will be required to upgrade its current plant to achieve this processing rate which as mentioned above is expected to occur within 90 to 120 days. These upgrades are expected to bring the total processing rate of the plant to about 9 tons/day. The agreement allows for an increased capacity to process 10 tons/day of RTC concentrate for approximately 300 days per annum. In order to achieve this rate, total plant capacity will have to be increased to about 29 tons/day.
PP LP guaranteed a benchmark run of 5 tons/day for 20 consecutive days ("Benchmark Run") with a minimum value of $50,000 (net to RTC) per ton using the RTC concentrate (or a total of $5,000,000 in net proceeds to RTC) from the existing ore supply contracts. The guarantee is limited to the proportionate reduction of the number of shares of USPR common stock issuable to the RTC shareholders (as described below). The benchmark run must be completed prior to June 1, 2014.

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS CONTINUED
 
Share Exchange Agreement.
As stated above, pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of RTC ("RTC Shares") from the RTC shareholders in exchange for 300 million shares of common stock of the Company. The transaction shares were to be held in escrow, however, voting rights will remain with the named party. The agreement further provided that if the Benchmark Run did not yield net cash proceeds of $5 million to RTC, then the number of exchange shares in total will be proportionately reduced. The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement was expected to occur no later than June 1, 2014. The agreement contains customary representations and warranties by all parties. On September 10, 2013, the Company amended the Share Exchange Agreement with RTC and the RTC shareholders. Under the amendment, the parties agreed to reduce the number of "Exchange Shares" as defined in Section 4.01 of the Agreement (issuable to the RTC shareholders) from 300,000,000 shares of USPR common stock to 290,000,000 shares of USPR common stock.
The RTC shareholders are Wolz International, LLC ("Wolz"), Titan Productions, Inc. ("Titan"), and Mercury6, LP ("Mercury6"). Assuming a completion of the transaction without further proportionate reduction in the USPR Shares, Wolz, Titan and Mercury would have received 145 million shares, 72.5 million shares and 72.5 million shares, of common stock of USPR, respectively. Mr. Gennaro Pane, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, is the sole officer and member of Wolz (and owns approximately 51% of the shares of Wolz), and Chad Altieri, our Board member, is the sole owner of Mercury.

Restructuring Agreement with RTC
On January 30, 2014, the Company entered into a Restructuring Agreement with RTC, the RTC Shareholders, and Plasmafication Technology Holding, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("PTH"). PTH, as mentioned above, is an affiliate of RTC and owns and operates a plasma processing plant located in 29 Palms, California which employs the Plasmafication™ technology ("Plasma Plant").
Pursuant to the Restructuring Agreement, the Company, RTC and the RTC Shareholders terminated ab initio the Share Exchange Agreement, and the Company entered into new agreements and instruments with the counter parties described below. These new agreements and instruments consist of (i) the Restructuring Agreement, the Technology License Agreement by and between the Company and PTH ("License Agreement"), (ii) An Equipment Purchase and Sale Agreement by and between the Company and PTH ("Equipment Purchase Agreement"), (iii) A Promissory Note issued by PTH in favor of the Company in the amount $5,000,000 ("Promissory Note"), and (iv) A Certificate of Designations relating to 1,250,000 shares of Preferred Stock (defined below) issued to RTC in connection with the transaction ("Certificate of Designations"). The closing of the Restructuring Agreement occurred on February 4, 2014 ("Closing").
The Restructuring Agreement and related agreements and instruments provide the following material terms and conditions, among others:
Processing Rights.
Under the terms of the Restructuring Agreement, PTH will process the Company's ore concentrate at its Plasma Plant five (5) days per month for each month during a term agreed by the parties. The term begins with the date that the Plasma Plant is ready to commence commercial operations at the processing rate of 5 tons/day and terminating on the date that the Company Plasma Facility (defined below) is fully permitted and ready to commence commercial operations at a processing rate of 10 tons/day. PTH has informed the Company that it expects to be fully operational during the fourth calendar quarter of 2014. The Company has agreed to pay its ratable share of PTH overhead and direct costs as set forth in the agreement, and apart from the foregoing, PTH will not receive any royalty or other fee.

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS-CONTINUED
 
Licensing Rights. 
Under the Technology Licensing Agreement, PTH granted the Company a non-exclusive, royalty free license to use PTH's Plasmafication™ technology for a term of 25 years. The technology covers and relates to the construction and use of a Company owned plasma plant described below. The Licensing Agreement is subject to other customary terms and conditions.
Construction of a Company Owned Plasma Plant. 
Under the Equipment Purchase Agreement, PTH has agreed to construct, on behalf of the Company, a 10 ton/day plasma processing plant on its premises located in 29 Palms, California ("Company Facility"). The plant will be constructed on an actual costs basis without markup by PTH, and PTH also has agreed to pay for 1/3rd of the construction costs. The estimated costs of construction for the Company Facility is approximately $18 million. The parties will formulate in the near future a draw schedule which will detail construction and payment milestones, however, in order to initiate the construction process, the Company will be required to pay a down payment of $1.5 million. In addition to other terms and conditions therein, PTH will assist in obtaining the necessary Federal, state and local permits and licenses to construct and operate the Company Plasma facility, however, the Company will be required to bear the related costs. Upon completion of the facility, the Company will own 100% of the Company Facility, however, any Licensed Technical Information will be subject to the Licensing Agreement.
In addition, the parties will be required to enter into an operating and maintenance agreement which address the operation and maintenance of the Company Owned Plasma Plant.
Promissory Note
PTH has delivered to the Company a Promissory Note in the principal amount is $5 million. The note is payable on or before January 30, 2015, and bears no interest prior to the payment due date. The promissory note may be offset under certain conditions set forth therein.
No value has been assigned to the Processing Rights, Licensing Rights, PTH's assistance to construct a Company Owned Plant or Promissory Note in these financial statements. Effective as the date of this report, the Company, RTC and PTH, are all development stage companies, none of which have the existing financials resources, established business operating processes or ongoing profitable business operations to meet their obligations under the terms of these agreements at this time. The Company, RTC and PTH's ability to meet their obligations under the terms of these agreements is dependent on their ability to raise the future funding required and to successfully develop and implement their business plans which cannot be guaranteed at this time. Accordingly the realization of any future value from these rights and notes is highly uncertain at this time and accordingly no value has been assigned to them. 
Preferred Stock and Certificate of Designation. In connection with the Restructuring Agreement, the Company issued to RTC 1,250,000 shares of its newly created Class A Super Voting Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock"). The Preferred Stock has the rights privileges and preferences as is set forth in the Certificate of Designations filed with the Delaware Secretary of State. As stated in the Certificate of Designations, each share of the Preferred Stock has identical rights as 100 shares of the Company's common stock. These rights, privileges and preferences include among others; (i). each share of Preferred Stock has 100 to 1 voting rights, voting along with the Company's common stock, (ii). each share of Preferred Stock has 100 to 1 rights upon liquidation and distribution of the Company, (iii). each share of Preferred Stock has the right to convert into 100 shares of common stock of the company. The Company increased its authorized shares of common stock from 150 million to 325 million in order to allow for the conversion of the Preferred Stock, among other considerations.

Each share of Preferred Stock has identical rights as 100 shares of common stock except that each share Preferred Stock is convertible to 100 shares of common stock (or a total of 125 million shares of common stock of the Company).
These securities qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The offering was not a "public offering" as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the offering, manner of the offering and number of securities offered. These shareholders made certain representations and warranties, including their investment intent. They also agreed to and received share certificates bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.
Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS-CONTINUED
 
Mining Services Agreement with Mesa Acquisition Group LLC Continued
As of February 28, 2014, Phase I was substantially complete, although the Company has not received the results of the ground work conducted on the property.
Contractor will be responsible for the costs and expenses of: the satellite imaging described in Phase 1, the limited exploration and build out of the infrastructure described in Phase 2, and the construction of the processing plant described in Phase 3 and all mining costs. The obligation of contractor to proceed to Phases 2 and 3 will be dependent upon the company receiving positive results of the satellite imaging. The size and capacity of the processing plant to be constructed by the Contractor will be determined by parties, subject however to the results of the satellite imaging. Actual mining costs will be paid for by Contractor and milling and processing expenses will be allocated between the parties in proportion to their revenue allocation described below (70% for Company/30% for Contractor).
As consideration for the mining services, Contractor will receive the following consideration from the Company:
Phase 1 and Phase 2. As consideration for Phases 1 and 2, the Company has issued to Contractor 10 million shares of its common stock.
Phase 3. As consideration for completion of Phase 3, Contractor will earn a 30% revenue interest in the revenues resulting from the sale of the ore, subject to it paying its proportionate share of the milling expenses. If Contractor fails to perform or elects not to perform Phase 3 for any reason within 12 months from the completion of Phase 2, Contractor will forfeit all rights to the project.
In addition to the consideration stated above, as a further inducement for Contractor to enter into the Mining Services Agreement, the Company's Chairman has agreed to issue to Contractor an additional 5 million shares of our common stock.  This is not a Company obligation but will be treated as a capital contribution and will occur after completion of development under separate agreement.
The parties will be obligated to share in the milling and processing costs and revenues generated from any ore processing on a proportionate basis that is 70% to the Company and 30% to Contractor. The Mining Services Agreement contains extensive terms and obligations regarding the performance of the mining services by Contractor. Accordingly, the descriptions of the Mining Services Agreement are not complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to each agreement which are filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 16, 2013.
Mr. George Mesa, the sole owner of Contractor, has been the Company's Director of Security for the Company's Mexican mining concessions since September 2012.  On September 21, 2012, Mr. Mesa received stock options to acquire 1 million share of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.12 in connection with that appointment.
On September 19, 2013, the Company in conjunction with its Mining Services partners Mesa Acquisition Group LLC/Alba Petroleos De El Salvador Sem De Cv, reported the results of the Phase 1 Satellite Imaging program under the Mining Services Agreement.

Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws;
On January 31, 2014, the Company filed the Certificate of Designations with the Delaware Secretary of State. The Certificate of Designation allows for the creation and issuance of the 1,250,000 shares of Preferred Stock. As stated in the Certificate of Designations, each share of the Preferred Stock has identical rights as 100 shares of the Company's common stock. These rights, privileges and preferences include among others; (i). each share of Preferred Stock shall have 100 to 1 voting rights, voting along with the Company's common stock, (ii). each share of Preferred Stock shall have 100 to 1 rights upon liquidation and distribution of the Company, (iii). each share of Preferred Stock shall have the right to convert into 100 shares of common stock of the Company.

The conversion privilege of the preferred stock contains a provision restricting conversion until such time as there are adequate common shares authorized to allow full conversion of the preferred.  On April 14, 2014, we increased our authorized shares of common stock from 175 million to 325 million.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Presentation
Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally  accepted  accounting  principles for interim  financial  information  and with the  instructions  to Form  10-Q and Article  8 of  Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In our opinion the financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to make the financial statements not misleading. Operating results for the three months ended August 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended May 31, 2015. For more complete financial information, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended May 30, 2014 included in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
Exploration Stage Accounting
The Company is an exploration stage company, as defined in pronouncements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and Industry Guide #7 of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Generally accepted accounting principles govern the recognition of revenue by an exploration stage enterprise and the accounting for costs and expenses. As an exploration stage company is also required to make additional disclosures as defined under the then current Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 915, "Development-Stage Entities". Additional disclosures required are that our financial statements be identified as those of an exploration stage company, and that the statements of operations, changes in changes in stockholders' deficit and cash flows disclosed activity since the date of its Inception (January 21, 1998). Effective June 10, 2014, the FASB changed its regulations with respect to development stage entities and these additional disclosures are no longer required for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with the option for entities to early adopt these new provisions. The Company has elected to early adopt these provisions and consequently these additional disclosures are not included in its financial statements

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-CONTINUED
 
Proven and Probable Reserves
The definition of proven and probable reserves is set forth in SEC Industry Guide 7. Proven reserves are reserves for which (a) quantity is computed from dimensions revealed in outcrops, trenches, workings or drill holes; (b) grade and/or quality are computed from the results of detailed sampling; and (c) the sites for inspection, sampling and measurement are spaced so closely and the geologic character is so well defined that size, shape, depth and mineral content of reserves are well-established. Probable reserves are reserves for which quantity and grade and/or quality are computed from information similar to that used for proven reserves, but the sites for inspection, sampling, and measurement are farther apart or are otherwise less adequately spaced. The degree of assurance, although lower than that for proven reserves, is high enough to assume continuity between points of observation. 
In addition, reserves cannot be considered proven and probable until they are supported by a feasibility study, indicating that the reserves have had the requisite geologic, technical and economic work performed and are economically and legally extractable at the time of the reserve determination. As of August 31, 2014, none of our mineralized material met the definition of proven or probable reserves.
Consolidated Statements
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary company.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimated
Foreign Currency Translation
The assets of the Mexican subsidiary are located in Mexico.  The Mexican subsidiary depends on the ability of the parent company to raise cash which is transferred to the subsidiary to meet its operating cash needs.  Therefore, the Company's management has determined that the functional currency of the Mexican subsidiary is the US dollar. Since that is the case, the Company remeasures its subsidiary financial statements in US dollars.  Any gains or losses are reflected on the Statements of Operations
The accounts of the Mexican subsidiary are remeasured in US dollars as follows:
(a)
Current assets, current liabilities, and long-term monetary assets and liabilities are translated based on the rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet dates.
(b)
Non-monetary assets, liabilities, and equity accounts are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the times of acquisition of assets, assumption of liabilities or equity investments.
(c)
Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for each period, except for charges for amortization and depreciation of non-monetary assets which are translated at the rates associated with the assets.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-CONTINUED
 
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short term investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values for financial instruments were determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involved uncertainties and could not be determined with precision. The carrying amounts of notes receivable, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximated fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of notes payable approximated to their carrying value as generally their interest rates reflected our effective annual borrowing rate.
Fair Value Measurements: 
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements.  Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs.  ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date.  The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts, or priced with models using highly observable inputs.
Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date.  The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights.
Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term trade prepaid expenses, payables, accruals and convertible notes payable.  The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term trade prepaid expenses, payables, accruals and convertible notes payable approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, a small portion of which is located in Mexico.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the related reasonably assured lease term.  The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Vehicles
      4 years
Machinery and equipment
3-10 years

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-CONTINUED
 
Property and Equipment Continued
We review our property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable.
Maintenance and repairs of property and equipment are charged to operations. Major improvements are capitalized.
 
Upon retirement, sale or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in operations.
 
Investments in Mining Rights
Mining rights held for development are recorded at the cost of the rights, plus related acquisition costs.  These costs will be amortized when extraction begins.
Mine Development Costs
Mine development costs include engineering and metallurgical studies, drilling and other related costs to delineate an ore body, the removal of overburden to initially expose an ore body at open pit surface mines and the building of access ways, shafts, lateral access, drifts, ramps and other infrastructure at underground mines.  Costs incurred at a mine site before proven reserves have been established are expensed as mine development costs.  At the point proven reserves have been established at a mine site, such costs will be capitalized and will be written off as depletion expense as the minerals are extracted.
As of August 31, 2014, none of the mine concessions met the requirements for qualification as having proven reserves.
Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets
In the event that facts and circumstances indicated that the cost of long-lived and intangible assets may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability will be performed. If an evaluation was required, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the asset's carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value or discounted cash flow value was required. No impairment was recorded during the three month periods ended August 31, 2014 and 2103. 
Deferred Costs and Other
Offering costs with respect to issue of common stock, warrants or options by us were initially deferred and ultimately offset against the proceeds from these equity transactions if successful or expensed if the proposed equity transaction is unsuccessful. 
Derivative Financial Instruments: 
We do not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. We evaluate all of our financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company used a Black Scholes valuation model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-CONTINUED
 
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes under the liability method, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  Current tax benefits are offset by a valuation reserve as they are considered not likely to be realized in the foreseeable future.
Recognition of Revenue
Revenue will be recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, such as when a purchase order or contract is received from a customer, the price is fixed, title to the goods has passed, and there is reasonable assurance of collection.  The Company has not yet entered into any contractual arrangement to deliver product or services.
Advertising Costs
The Company will expense advertising costs when advertisements occur.  There has been no spending thus far on advertising.
Stock Based Compensation
The cost of equity instruments issued to non-employees in return for goods and services is measured by the fair value of the goods or services received or the measurement date fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is the more readily determinable.  The cost of employee services received in exchange for equity instruments is based on the grant date fair value of the equity instruments issued.
Discount and Amortization of Debt Discount:
Debt discount represents costs incurred in obtaining the debt funding and the fair value of embedded conversion options of various convertible debt instruments and attached convertible equity instruments issued in connection with debt instruments. The debt discount is amortized over the earlier of (i) the term of the debt or (ii) conversion of the debt, using the straight-line method which approximates the interest method. The amortization of debt discount is included as a component of other expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. 
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per common share in accordance with Accounting  Standards  Update ("ASU"),  Earning Per Share (Topic 260) which requires the  presentation of both basic and diluted  earnings per share ("EPS")on the  consolidated  income  statements..  Under these provisions, basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share are computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common shareholders for each period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  At May 31, 2014 and 2013 there were warrants and options outstanding to purchase Company common stock and notes payable that are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock. The common share equivalents of these have not been included in the calculations of loss per share because such inclusions would have anti-dilutive effects as the Company incurred a loss from operations during the three month periods ended August 31, 2014 and 2013.

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, we have experienced continuing losses since Inception (January 21, 1998), and as at August 31, 2014, have a working capital deficit of $4,778,113, accumulated losses of $51,184,512, recurring negative cash flows from operations and presently do not have sufficient resources to meet our outstanding liabilities or accomplish our objectives during the next twelve months.
 
As at August 31, 2014, we were in default on repayment of convertible promissory notes with principal balances of $550,000 together with accrued interest of $453,096 totaling $1,003,096.
Moreover, effective May 23, 2012, we amended our Settlement Agreement and Payment Agreement with our former attorneys. As result of the amendment, the payment of the initial installment of $403,554, originally due on May 24, 2012, was extended to July 24, 2012. In addition, commencing May 23, 2012, interest accrued on the amount due, which is $1,614,216, at the rate of 5% per annum. We were unable to make the scheduled payment of $403,554 and accrued interest on July 24, 2012 and defaulted under the terms of this agreement, and the entire amount, including interest, became due and payable. On October 1, 2012, we entered into a second amendment to our Settlement Agreement and Payment Agreement with our former attorneys effective July 23, 2012. As a result of the second amendment, the date for the payment of the initial installment of $403,554 was extended to December 1, 2012. We have failed to make this schedule payment on December 1, 2012. Thus, our former attorneys have the ability to avail themselves of all rights and privileges under the existing agreements with us and under the laws of Mexico and the United States. During the twelve months ended May 31, 2014 we made a single payment of $25,000 in respect of this liability. The total balance due to our former attorneys, including accrued interest, at August 31, 2014 was $1,770,560.
In addition, we owe another former attorney the sum of approximately $90,000 under an arbitration award. The attorney has initiated efforts to effect a judgment against the Company.
At the time of this report, we do not have the funding available to repay the convertible promissory notes, make the payment required under the amended agreement with our former attorneys or pay the arbitration award to the other former attorney.

3.    GOING CONCERN AND LIQUIDITY-CONTINUED
 
These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
In our audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2014 and 2013, contained in our Annual Report, the Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm includes an explanatory paragraph that describes substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our present plans to overcome these difficulties, the realization of which cannot be assured, include, but are not limited to, continuing efforts to raise new funding in the public and private markets, to sell some or all of our assets and to initiate a renegotiation of the terms of scheduled repayments to our creditors.

As at May 31, 2014, we were in default on repayment of various convertible promissory notes included in the above table with principal balances of $550,000 together with accrued interest of $453,096 totaling $1,003,096. The notes in default bear simple interest at an annual rate of 16% and may be converted into the shares of our common stock at the option of the note holder or automatically, if we complete any financing that results in proceeds of at least $10 million to us, or upon the occurrence of a change in control of us. 
On September 30, 2013, a holder of our convertible notes (referenced above) served us with a lawsuit. The lawsuit demanded repayment of a total of $632,666 in principal and interest due under the convertible notes. The lawsuit was dismissed by court due to lack of jurisdiction.
During the three month ended August 31, 2014, the Company did not issue any further convertible notes payable and settled two previously outstanding convertible notes payable through the issuance of a total of 3,040,622 shares of common stock.
Convertible Note Payable A
On September 26, 2013, we entered into a convertible promissory note with a maximum amount of $300,000, to be funded during a two year term, bearing interest at 12%. The maximum proceeds to be received under the note is $270,000 with the balance of $30,000 representing a discount on issue. We initially received $150,000 upon closing the note.  The lender may convert the convertible promissory note into shares of our common stock at any time after six months at a 40% discount to the lowest trade price in the 25 trading days prior to conversion.
The $150,000 advance was received net of a debt discount of $16,667 and the principal balance to be repaid is $166,667. The $16,667 debt discount was recorded as reduction (contra-liability) to the convertible debenture and is being amortized over the life of the convertible debenture.

6.    CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE-CONTINUED
 
Convertible Note Payable A Continued
We evaluated the terms of the conversion features of the convertible debenture in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815 - 40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Stock and determined it is indexed to the Company's common stock and that the conversion features meet the definition of a liability and therefore bifurcated the conversion feature and accounted for it as a separate derivative liability.
We valued the conversion feature at origination at $259,659 using the Black Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions:  dividend yield of zero, 18 month to maturity, risk free interest rate of 0.34% and annualized volatility of 143%. $150,000 of the value assigned to the derivative liability was recognized as a debt discount on the convertible debenture. The debt discount was recorded as reduction (contra-liability) to the convertible debenture and is being amortized over the life of the convertible debenture. The balance of $109,659 of the value assigned to the derivative liability was recognized as origination interest on the derivative liability and expensed on origination.
ASC 815 requires we assess the fair market value of derivative liability at the end of each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as another income or expense item.
At November 30, 2013, we revalued the conversion feature of the convertible debenture using the Black Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions: 6 month risk free interest rate of 0.26% and annualized volatility of 133% and determined that, since origination, the fair value of our derivative liability had decreased by $33,956 to $225,703. Accordingly, we recognized a corresponding gain on derivative liability in conjunction with this revaluation.
On February 20, 2014 we received a further net advance for 30,000 under the terms of the note.
The $30,000 advance was received net of a debt discount of $3,333 and the principal balance to be repaid is $33,333. The $3,333 debt discount was recorded as reduction (contra-liability) to the convertible debenture and is being amortized over the life of the convertible debenture.
We evaluated the terms of the conversion features of the convertible debenture in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815 - 40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Stock and determined it is indexed to the Company's common stock and that the conversion features meet the definition of a liability and therefore bifurcated the conversion feature and accounted for it as a separate derivative liability.
We valued the conversion feature at origination at $42,385 using the Black Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions:  dividend yield of zero, 18 month to maturity, risk free interest rate of 0.25% and annualized volatility of 128%. $30,000 of the value assigned to the beneficial conversion feature was recognized as a debt discount on the convertible debenture. The debt discount was recorded as reduction (contra-liability) to the convertible debenture and is being amortized over the life of the convertible debenture. The balance of $12,385 of the value assigned to the beneficial conversion feature was recognized as origination interest on the derivative liability and expensed on origination.
ASC 815 requires we assess the fair market value of derivative liability at the end of each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as another income or expense item.

6.    CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE-CONTINUED
 
Convertible Note Payable A-Continued
At February 28, 2014, we revalued the conversion feature of the entire $200,000 convertible debenture using the Black Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions: 18 month term, risk free interest rate of 0.25% and annualized volatility of 128%  and determined that, since the previous revaluation or origination, the fair value of our derivative liability had increased by $37,892 to $305,980 Accordingly we recognized a corresponding loss on derivative liability in conjunction with this revaluation.
Between March 26, 2014 and May 15, 2014, the holder made 4 separate conversion requests and converted the $91,080 of the principal receiving a total of 1,320,000 shares of our common stock upon such conversions.
On each partial settlement, we revalued the proportionate amount of the derivative liability to it fair value and recognized any gain or loss on the change in fair value of the derivative liability as other income or expense in the statement of operations. On issuance of shares of our common stock on partial settlement of the note, we transferred the proportionate balance of the derivative liability together with the proportionate balance of unamortized debt discount to additional paid in capital.
At May 31, 2014, we revalued the conversion feature of the remaining balance of $132,920 principal and interest outstanding using the Black Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions: 16 month term, risk free interest rate of 0195% and annualized volatility of 120%  and determined that, since the previous revaluation, the fair value of our remaining derivative liability had decreased by $27,310 to $146,674 Accordingly we recognized a corresponding gain on derivative liability in conjunction with this revaluation.
Between June 1, 2014 and August 20, 2014 the holder made 4 separate conversion requests and converted the remaining $132,920 of the principal receiving a total of 1,724,266 shares of our common stock upon such conversions.
On each partial settlement, we revalued the proportionate amount of the derivative liability to it fair value and recognized any gain or loss on the change in fair value of the derivative liability as other income or expense in the statement of operations. On issuance of shares of our common stock on partial settlement of the note, we transferred the proportionate balance of the derivative liability together with the proportionate balance of unamortized debt discount to additional paid in capital.
As at August 31, 2014, no balance was outstanding under this convertible note payable.
However, as disclosed in Note 11 Subsequent Events below, a further advance of $83,333 was made under this convertible note payable and we received funds $75,000, net of debt discount on September 3, 2014.
Convertible Note Payable B
On January 30, 2014, we issued a convertible debenture to a former lender for $125,000. The convertible debenture had a 6 month term and bore interest of 12%. The convertible debenture could have been prepaid at a rate of 150% of the principal balance outstanding along with accrued interest. At any time after the maturity date of the convertible loan, if any principal balance is still outstanding, the balance was convertible into shares of the common stock at a 40% discount to the lowest closing price of the prior 20 trading days. As the conversion feature only applied after the maturity of the convertible debenture, no value was assigned to it at origination of the loan and no loan discount was recognized on the convertible debenture at origination. This convertible debenture was due on July 30, 2014 and the holder converted the entire principal amount of the note as described further below.

6.    CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE-CONTINUED
Convertible Note Payable B-Continued
We evaluated the terms of the conversion features of the convertible debenture in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815- 40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Stock. Since the conversion price can change with reductions in the price of Company common stock, the conversion feature meets the definition of a derivative. We therefore bifurcated the conversion feature and accounted for it as a separate derivative liability. We valued the conversion feature at default at $111,975 using the Black Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of zero, 3 month to maturity, risk free interest rate of 0.03% and annualized volatility of 59%. The balance of $111,975 was recognized as interest on origination and expensed in full on default.
Between January 30, 2014 and August 15, 2014, the holder made 6 separate conversion requests and converted the entire $125,000 principal amount of the note receiving a total of 1,316,356 shares of our common stock. The holder waived their right to charge interest on this loan. As of August 31, 2014, the note has been satisfied in full.
On each partial settlement, we revalued the proportionate amount of the derivative liability to it fair value and recognized any gain or loss on the change in fair value of the derivative liability as other income or expense in the statement of operations. On issuance of shares of our common stock on partial settlement of the note, we transferred the proportionate balance of the derivative liability together with the proportionate balance of unamortized debt discount to additional paid in capital.
Convertible Note Payable C
On April 4 2014, we issued a further convertible debenture for $150,000 to the same lender as for Convertible Note Payable B above. The convertible debenture has a 6 month term and bears interest of 10%. The convertible debenture could have been prepaid at a rate of 150% of the principal balance outstanding along with accrued interest. At any time after the maturity date of the convertible loan, if any principal balance was still outstanding, the balance could be convertible into shares of the common stock at a 40% discount to the lowest closing price of the prior 20 trading days. As the conversion feature only applies after the maturity of the convertible debenture, no value has been assigned to it and no loan discount has been recognized on the convertible debenture. This convertible debenture is due on October 4, 2014.

Lease – Head Office
Our head office is in Marlboro, New Jersey where we are now renting office space under a the terms of a 12 month lease, with an option to extend the term of the lease for a further 12 months, at $1,300 per month and operating expenses. This lease is personally guaranteed by one of our officers and directors. Neither the lease of the personal guarantee have ever been finalized or signed
Leases – Mexican Operation
The Company leases a warehouse (storage) facility in the city of Morelia, Michoacán, Mexico at a monthly rental of $2,234. This lease expired on February 1, 2014 and was extended for a further twelve month period on the same terms. Effective February 1, 2014 we extended the terms of the lease for a further twelve months on the same terms as before.
Effective January 1, 2014, we entered into a new rental agreement with the landowner of the land on which our mining concessions are located. Under the terms of the new agreement we agreed to pay a monthly rental of approximately $5,400 on a going basis to be able to have access to our mining concessions.
Mining rights
The Company is required to make payments to the Mexican government on a bi-annual basis to maintain its mining concessions. In the twelve months ended May 31, 2014 the Company made payments of $147,105 to the Mexican government to maintain its mining concessions. It is anticipated that these payments will increase in the twelve months ending May 31, 2015.
Other Commitments
Under an employment agreement we have with Mr. Hertell, among other terms, we agreed to pay Mr. Hertell an annual salary of $500,000. The salary commences at such time as we generate monthly gross revenues from our plasma processing operations of at least one million dollars ($1,000,000) for two (2) consecutive months ("Performance Event"), and (ii) upon our achievement of the Performance Event, the Base Salary shall commence effective as of the first day of the stated two (2) consecutive month period and shall continue throughout the Term.. Either party may terminate this Agreement by providing at least ten (10) days written notice to the other party.
In May 2014, we paid $35,000 as a deposit on a sales proposal to install limited production equipment on our property in Mexico for a total cost of $450,000. In August 2014, we made a further deposit of $21,250 under the terms of the sales proposal. As at the date of this report, there is no contract for this work and we do not have the funding to pay the balance due under the sales proposal and will need to raise the additional funds through the sale of further equity or debt instruments. There is no guarantee that we will be success in raising the necessary funding.
As disclosed in Note 11 Subsequent Events below, on September 15, 2014, we paid $75,000 as a deposit on a proposal to undertake a drilling program on our property in Mexico. The proposal is in excess of $1 million. As at the date of this report, there is no contract for this work and we do not have the funding to pay the balance due under the sales proposal and will need to raise the additional funds through the sale of further equity or debt instruments. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the necessary funding.

Legal
Title Dispute
On April 3, 2012, as we have previously reported, Mr. Israel Tentory Garcia filed an action against our Mexican subsidiary, US Precious Metals SA de CV, wherein the plaintiff asserted a number of claims against us, including a demand for the return of one of our concessions (Solidaridad I) for failure to develop the concession. The case was filed in a local court in the Federal District of Mexico City. On May 21, 2013, the Court ruled that the Plaintiff did not prove the claims asserted in the lawsuit, and that our subsidiary is not liable to for any of such claims.
On June 12, 2014, our Mexican subsidiary, US Precious Metals SA de CV was served with another lawsuit from Mr. Israel Tentory Garcia along with seven other plaintiffs. The lawsuit was filed in a commercial court in Mexico City. The claims of the new lawsuit essentially restate the claims of the original lawsuit filed in April 2012.
By way of background, the plaintiffs obtained the exploration rights to the concession known as Solidaridad I from the Mexican government on November 24, 1996. These exploration rights expired on November 23, 2001 under the terms of the concession from the government and as prescribed by the governing statute. On March 13, 2003, we entered into an agreement with the plaintiffs pursuant to which they assigned their rights to this (expired) concession to our Mexican subsidiary. In July 2003, our Mexican subsidiary then applied for and obtained a new exploration and exploitation concession from the Mexican government covering Solidaridad I. The new concession expires July 2053.
Pursuant to this 2003 agreement with the plaintiffs, we issued 1.5 million shares of our common stock to them. The agreement further provided for the payment of $1 million to the plaintiffs upon the occurrence of a sale of the concession for exploitation purposes. In the original action filed in 2012 and in the current action, plaintiff(s) claim that under the agreement the $1 million payment was due and payable no later than 2009 and ownership of the mining concession should revert back to the plaintiff(s) due to the non-payment.
We have retained counsel in Mexico to represent our subsidiary in this matter. We strongly dispute the allegations raised in the lawsuit and intend to vigorously defend the lawsuit. Our defense will include, among other positions, the fact that plaintiffs had no concession rights to assign under the March 2003 agreement as their concession expired 16 months earlier, we independently obtained the rights to a new (and current) concession from the Mexican government in July 2003, the agreement is ambiguous as to the payment requirement in 2009 and the matter was previously adjudicated in our favor in earlier action, albeit in a different court. We have filed an answer to the above complaint.
8.    STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT
 
Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of 0.00001 per share.

On January 30, 2014, the Company entered into a Restructuring Agreement with RTC, the RTC Shareholders, and Plasmafication Technology Holding, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("PTH"). Under the terms of the agreement, the Company was contracted to issue at Closing 1,250,000 shares of Class A Preferred Stock to RTC.

8.    STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT-CONTINUED
 
Unregistered Sale of Securities Continued.
The market value of the 1,250,000 shares of its newly created Class A Super Voting Preferred Stock is assumed to equate to 125,000,000 shares of the common stock which was $16,250,000 on January 30, 2014 when the Company became contractually obligated to issue these shares. These securities qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The offering was not a "public offering" as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the offering, manner of the offering and number of securities offered. These shareholders made certain representations and warranties, including their investment intent. They also agreed to and received share certificates bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.
Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
On January 31, 2014, the Company filed the Certificate of Designations with the Delaware Secretary of State. The Certificate of Designation allows for the creation and issuance of the 1,250,000 shares of Preferred Stock. As stated in the Certificate of Designations, each share of the Preferred Stock has identical rights as 100 shares of the Company's common stock. These rights, privileges and preferences include among others; (i) each share of Preferred Stock shall have 100 to 1 voting rights, voting along with the Company's common stock, (ii) each share of Preferred Stock shall have 100 to 1 rights upon liquidation and distribution of the Company, (iii) each share of Preferred Stock shall have the right to convert into 100 shares of common stock of the Company. On January 29, 2014, the Company's Board of Directors approved the Certificate of Designations, the filings of the Certificate of Designations with the Delaware Secretary of State and the issuance of the Preferred stock created thereby to RTC.

Common Stock and Warrants
The Company is authorized to issue 150,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.00001 per share. On or about February 25, 2014, a majority of the Company's shareholders approved the increase of the authorized common stock from 150,000,000 to 325,000,000 shares.  The Board of Directors previously approved the stated corporate action.  On March 26, 2014, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and mailed to its shareholders a Definitive Schedule 14C with respect to the stated increase in authorized shares.
 The following shares of common stock and warrants were issued and warrants cancelled in the three months ending August 31, 2014:

During the three months ended August 31, 2014, we issued 2,250,000 shares of our common stock valued as $495,000 as compensation to our directors. Each of our nine directors at the time received 250,000 shares of common stock. In addition, 1,000,000 fully vested stock options with an exercise price of $0.23, valued at $206,958, were issued to a Mexican national appointed to our advisory board to assist the Company with its operations in Mexico, including regulatory affairs.
In July and August 2013, the Company paid a total of $125,000 to a company controlled by Mr. George Mesa, our Director of Security, and owner of Mesa Acquisitions Group LLC. Mr. Mesa had previously advanced a like amount of funds which were used by Resource Technology Corp. ("RTC") in connection with the transportation of ore supply, and related costs. As mentioned above, in May 2013, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with RTC and its shareholders, which includes our Chairman and a director, to acquire the issued and outstanding shares of RTC from the RTC shareholders.
Effective August 28, 2013, we appointed Mr. Hans H. Hertell as the Company's President. In addition, on that same date, our   Board of Directors approved an Employment Agreement with Mr. Hertell and a Consulting Agreement with Hertell Group, LLC. ("Hertell Group"). Mr. Hertell is the sole officer and member of Hertell Group.
Under the Employment Agreement, among other terms, we agreed to pay Mr. Hertell an annual salary of $500,000. The salary commences at such time as we generate monthly gross revenues from our plasma processing operations of at least one million dollars ($1,000,000) for two (2) consecutive months ("Performance Event"), and (ii) upon our achievement of the Performance Event, the Base Salary shall commence effective as of the first day of the stated two (2) consecutive month period and shall continue throughout the Term. In addition, upon occurrence of the Performance Event, the Executive will be entitled to receive a stock award of 1,000,000 shares of common stock ("Stock Grant"), which shall vest immediately. Either party may terminate this Agreement by providing at least ten (10) days written notice to the other party.

Under the Consulting Agreement, among other terms, the Hertell Group will provide general business consulting services including but not limited to business development strategy, introduction of prospective business acquisitions or joint venture participation, deal-making, introduction to capital markets, marketing strategies, and other duties as mutually agreed upon by the parties. As consideration or the services, the Hertell Group will receive 9,000,000 shares of our common stock. The term of the Consulting Agreement is three years. The shares were issued, and the associated expense recognized, during the three months ended November 30, 2013.
 
On January 30, 2014, the Company entered into a Restructuring Agreement with RTC, the RTC Shareholders, and Plasmafication Technology Holding, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("PTH"). Pursuant to the Restructuring Agreement 1,250,000 shares of our designated Class of Preferred stock, valued at $16,250,000 was issued to the RTC shareholders. The RTC shareholders are Wolz International, LLC ("Wolz") owning 50% of RTC, Titan Productions, Inc. ("Titan") owning 25% of RTC, and Mercury6, LP ("Mercury6") owning 25% of RTC. Assuming the issuance of the Preferred Stock to its shareholders, Wolz will receive 625,000 shares of Preferred Stock convertible into 62.5 million shares of common stock (or approximately 24% of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock), and each of Titan and Mercury will receive 312,500 shares of Preferred Stock convertible into 31.5 million shares of common stock (or approximately 12% of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock for each entity). Mr. Gennaro Pane, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, is an officer and member of Wolz and owns approximately 51% of Wolz, and Chad Altieri, our Board member, is the sole owner of Mercury. In addition, Mr. Pane is a managing member of PTH and Messrs Pane and Altieri own or control approximately 20% and 8%, respectively of PTH. 
10.            INCOME TAXES

The Internal Revenue Code allows net operating losses (NOL's) to be carried forward and applied against future profits for a period of twenty years. The change of ownership following the RTC restructuring agreement may be limited our ability to utilize these US NOLs under the terms of IRC Section 381. The Mexican equivalent of the Internal Revenue Code allows NOL's to be carried forward for ten years.
 
We did not provide any current or deferred US federal income tax provision or benefit for any of the periods presented in these financial statements because we have experienced losses since Inception. When it is more likely than not, that a tax asset cannot be realized through future income, the Company must record an allowance against any future potential future tax benefit. We provided a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carry forwards, because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the carry forward periods.
 
The Company has not taken a tax position that, if challenged, would have a material effect on the financial statements for the three months ended August 31, 2014 and 2013 as defined under ASC 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes." We did not recognize any adjustment to the liability for uncertain ta position and therefore did not record any adjustment to the beginning balance of the accumulated deficit on the balance sheet.
 
The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income before provision for income taxes. The sources and tax effects of the differences for the periods presented are as follows:

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations is provided as a supplement to the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes to help provide an understanding of the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
Overview
We were formed as a mineral exploration company on January 21, 1998. We are engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. We focus on gold and base minerals primarily located in the State of Michoacán, Mexico where we own exploration and exploitation concessions to approximately 37,000 acres of land (the "Solidaridad Property"). Mineral exploration requires significant capital and our assets and resources are limited. We have never earned revenue from our operations and have relied on equity and debt financing to fund our operations to date.
We are considered an exploration stage company for accounting purposes because we have not demonstrated the existence of proven or probable reserves. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, all expenditures for exploration and evaluation of our properties have been expensed as incurred. Furthermore, unless our mineralized material is classified as proven or probable reserves, substantially all expenditures have been or will be expensed as incurred. Since substantially all of our expenditures to date have been expensed, most of our investment in mining properties do not appear as an asset on our balance sheet.
RTC Transactions.
As previously reported by the Company on its Form 8-K filed with the Commission on May 17, 2013 and as stated above, on May 11, 2013, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Resource Technology Corp., a newly formed Florida corporation ("RTC"), and the RTC shareholders to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of RTC in exchange for 300 million shares of common stock of the Company. The transaction included three ore supply contracts with third party suppliers, and a Plasmafication™ Toll Processing Agreement with Plasma Processing, LP., a Florida limited partnership ("PP LP"). The ore supply agreements and the Toll Processing Agreement enabled RTC to receive 1/3rd of the revenues derived from the plasma processing of ore concentrates from the ore supply agreements.
PP LP owns the right to operate a plasma processing facility located in 29 Palms, California. The plant took three years to build and is permitted to process ore concentrate. The parties believed that initial upgrades to the facility would commence within 90 to 120 days which will enable the facility to process concentrates at the rate of approximately 9 tons/day. PP LP expected to make further upgrades to the facility which would increase its capacity to approximately 27 tons/day. PP LP guaranteed a benchmark run of 5 tons/day for 20 consecutive days ("Benchmark Run") with a minimum value of $50,000 (net to RTC) per ton using the RTC concentrate (or a total of $5,000,000 in net proceeds to RTC) from the existing ore supply contracts. The agreement provided that if the Benchmark Run does not yield net cash proceeds of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) to RTC, then the number of Exchange Shares in total will be proportionately reduced. The completion date for the Benchmark Run was June 1, 2014.
The RTC shareholders are Wolz International, LLC ("Wolz") owning 50% of RTC, Titan Productions, Inc. ("Titan") owning 25% of RTC, and Mercury6, LP ("Mercury6") owning 25% of RTC. Assuming a completion of the transaction without further proportionate reduction in the USPR Shares, Wolz, Titan and Mercury would have received a proportionate amount of the 300 million shares of our common stock Mr. Gennaro Pane, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, is the sole officer and member of Wolz (and will own approximately 51% of such shares), and Chad Altieri, our Board member, is the sole owner of Mercury. In addition, Messrs Pane and Altieri own or control limited partnership interests in PP LP.
The Share Exchange Agreement was approved by an independent committee of Directors, subject however to shareholder approval. In addition to normal closing conditions, the Company would have been required to obtain shareholder approval of the transaction, as well as shareholder approval to an increase in its authorized shares necessary to complete the transaction.
 
32

No approval was obtained as this Agreement was terminated and replaced by Restructuring Agreement (described below).
The above description is a summary of the May 11, 2013 transactions with RTC. For more complete information, please refer to the above stated Form 8-K filed with the Commission on May 17, 2013.
On January 30, 2014, the Company entered into a Restructuring Agreement with RTC, the RTC Shareholders, and Plasmafication Technology Holding, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("PTH"). PTH is an affiliate of RTC and owns and operates a plasma processing plant located in 29 Palms, California which employs the Plasmafication™ technology ("Plasma Plant").
Pursuant to the Restructuring Agreement, the Company, RTC and the RTC Shareholders terminated ab initio the Share Exchange Agreement, and the Company entered into new agreements and instruments with the counter parties described below consisting of (i) the Restructuring Agreement, the Technology License Agreement by and between the Company and PTH ("License Agreement"), (ii) An Equipment Purchase and Sale Agreement by and between the Company and PTH ("Equipment Purchase Agreement"), and (iii) A Promissory Note issued by PTH in favor of the Company in the amount $5,000,000 ("Promissory Note"), and (iv) A Certificate of Designations relating to 1,250,000 shares of Preferred Stock (defined below) issued to RTC in connection with the transaction ("Certificate of Designations"). The closing of the Restructuring Agreement occurred on February 4, 2014 ("Closing").
The Restructuring Agreement and related agreements and instruments provide the following material terms and conditions, among others:
Processing Rights. Under the terms of the Restructuring Agreement, PTH will process the Company's ore concentrate2 at its Plasma Plant five (5) days per month for each month during a term agreed by the parties. The term begins with the date that the Plasma Plant is ready to commence commercial operations at the processing rate of 5 tons/day and terminating on the date that the Company Plasma Facility (defined below) is fully permitted and ready to commence commercial operations at a processing rate of 10 tons/day. PTH has informed the Company that it expects to be fully operational during the fourth calendar quarter of 2014. The Company has agreed to pay its ratable share of PTH overhead and direct costs as set forth in the agreement, and apart from the foregoing, PTH will not receive any royalty or other fee.
Licensing Rights. Under the Technology Licensing Agreement, PTH granted the Company a non-exclusive, royalty free license to use PTH's Plasmafication™ technology for a term of 25 years. The technology covers and relates to the construction and use of a Company owned plasma plant described below. The Licensing Agreement is subject to other customary terms and conditions.
Construction of a Company Owned Facility. Under the Equipment Purchase Agreement, PTH has agreed to construct, on behalf of the Company, a 10 ton/day plasma processing plant on its premises located in 29 Palms, California ("Company Owned Facility"). The plant will be constructed on an actual costs basis without markup by PTH, and PTH also has agreed to pay for 1/3rd of the construction costs. The estimated costs of construction for the Company Facility is approximately $18 million. The parties will formulate in the near future a draw schedule which will detail construction and payment milestones, however, in order to initiate the construction process, the Company will be required to pay a down payment of $1.5 million. In addition to other terms and conditions therein, PTH will assist in obtaining the necessary Federal, state and local permits and licenses to construct and operate the Company Plasma facility, however, the Company will be required to bear the related costs. Upon completion of the facility, the Company will own 100% of the Company Facility, however, any Licensed Technical Information will be subject to the Licensing Agreement. In addition, the parties will be required to enter into a operating and maintenance agreement which address the operation and maintenance of the Company Owned Facility.
 
33

Promissory Note. PTH has delivered to the Company a Promissory Note in the principal amount is $5 million. The note is payable on or before January 30, 2015, and bears no interest prior to the payment due date. The promissory note may be offset under certain conditions set forth therein.
The above descriptions of the Restructuring Agreement, the Licensing Agreement, the Equipment Purchase Agreement, the Promissory Note and the Certificate of Designations are not complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to each respective agreement which are filed as Exhibits to the Form 8-K filed with the Commission on February 5, 2014.
No value has been assigned to the Processing Rights, Licensing Rights, PTH's assistance to construct a Company owned plant or the Promissory Note in these financial statements. Effective as the date of this report, the Company, RTC and PTH, are all development stage companies, none of which have the existing financials resources, established business operating processes or ongoing profitable business operations to meet their obligations under the terms of these agreements at this time. The Company, RTC and PTH's ability to meet their obligations under the terms of these agreements is dependent on the future ability to raise the future funding required and to successful development and implement their business plans which cannot be guaranteed at this time. Accordingly the realization of any future value from these rights and notes is highly uncertain at this time and accordingly no value has been assigned to them. 
Preferred Stock and Certificate of Designation. The Company issued to RTC 1,250,000 shares of its newly created Class A Super Voting Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock"). The Preferred Stock has the rights privileges and preferences as is set forth in the Certificate of Designations. As stated in the Certificate of Designations, each share of the Preferred Stock has identical rights as 100 shares of the Company's common stock. These rights, privileges and preferences include among others; (i). each share of Preferred Stock shall have 100 to 1 voting rights, voting along with the Company's common stock, (ii). each share of Preferred Stock shall have 100 to 1 rights upon liquidation and distribution of the Company, and (iii). each share of Preferred Stock shall have the right to convert into 100 shares of common stock of the company. The Company has increased its authorized shares of common stock from 150 million to 325 million to allow for the conversion of the Preferred Stock, among other reasons.
The market value of the 1,250,000 shares of its newly created Class A Super Voting Preferred Stock is assumed to equate to 125,000,000 shares of the common stock which was $16,250,000 on January 30, 2014 when the Company became contractually obligated to issue these shares.
In addition, under the Restructuring Agreement, the Company and RTC and its shareholders granted mutual releases, and provided customary representations and warranties.
The Restructuring Agreement was adopted by the unanimous consent of the Board of Directors of the Company, RTC, each RTC shareholders and PTH. All of the shareholders of RTC were signatories to the agreement.
The RTC shareholders are Wolz International, LLC ("Wolz") owning 50% of RTC, Titan Productions, Inc. ("Titan") owning 25% of RTC, and Mercury6, LP ("Mercury6") owning 25% of RTC. Assuming the issuance of the Preferred Stock to its shareholders, Wolz will receive 625,000 shares of Preferred Stock convertible into 62.5 million shares of common stock (or approximately 24% of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock), and each of Titan and Mercury will receive 312,500 shares of Preferred Stock convertible into 31.5 million shares of common stock (or approximately 12% of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock for each entity). Mr. Gennaro Pane, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, is an officer and member of Wolz and owns approximately 51% of Wolz, and Chad Altieri, our Board member, is the sole owner and sole officer of Mercury. In addition, Mr. Pane is a managing member of PTH and Messrs Pane and Altieri own or control approximately 20% and 8% respectively, of PTH.

Mining Services Agreement.
On May 22, 2013, the Company entered into a Mining Services Agreement with Mesa Acquisitions Group, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("Contractor"), in association with Alba Petroleos De El Salvador Sem De CV, a Venezuelan company. Under the agreement, Contractor has agreed to perform certain mining services on a portion of the Company's Mexican mining concessions. The Company maintains approximately 37,000 acres of mining concessions located in the State of Michoacán, Mexico, and the agreement covers the Solidaridad I & II mining concessions (or approximately 5,000 acres). Under the agreement, Contractor has agreed to perform the various mining services in three, separate phases described below: 

·
Phase 1 entailed the immediate commission of high-tech satellite imaging to identify mineralization and confirm the two previous drilling campaigns on the mining concessions known as Solidaridad I and/or Solidaridad II. 
The estimated costs of Phase 1 is approximately $400,000. 

·
Phase 2 entails the development of the necessary infrastructure to conduct full scale mining operations on the Solidaridad I and/or Solidaridad II mining concessions, including limited exploration, establishment of roads, water, power (electricity) and staging area for employees on site.
The estimated costs of Phase 2 is approximately $10 million. 

·
Phase 3 entails the construction of a processing plant to process the ore, which will be owned by the Company, and the performance of all surface and underground mining operations. 
The estimated costs for the construction of the processing plant is approximately $40 million. 
Contractor will be responsible for the costs and expenses of: the satellite imaging described in Phase 1, the limited exploration and build out of the infrastructure described in Phase 2, and the construction of the processing plant described in Phase 3 and all mining costs. The obligation of contractor to proceed to Phases 2 and 3 will be dependent upon the company receiving positive results of the satellite imaging. The size and capacity of the processing plant to be constructed by the Contractor will be determined by parties, subject however to the results of the satellite imaging. Actual mining costs will be paid for by Contractor and milling and processing expenses will be allocated between the parties in proportion to their revenue allocation described below (70% for Company/30% for Contractor). 
As consideration for the mining services, Contractor will receive the following consideration from the Company: 
Phase 1 and Phase 2. As consideration for Phases 1 and 2, the Company issued to Contractor 10 million shares of its common stock.
Phase 3. As consideration for completion of Phase 3, Contractor will earn a 30% revenue interest in the revenues resulting from the sale of the ore, subject to it paying its proportionate share of the milling expenses. If Contractor fails to perform or elects not to perform Phase 3 for any reason within 12 months from the completion of Phase 2, Contractor will forfeit all rights to the project.
In addition to the consideration stated above, as a further inducement for Contractor to enter into the Mining Services Agreement, the Company's Chairman has agreed to issue to Contractor an additional 5 million shares of our common stock held by the Chairman.  This is not a Company obligation and will occur after completion of development under separate agreement.
The parties will be obligated to share in the mining and processing costs and revenues generated from any ore processing on a proportionate basis that is 70% to the Company and 30% to Contractor. 

35

The Mining Services Agreement contains extensive terms and obligations regarding the performance of the mining services by Contractor. Accordingly, the descriptions of the Mining Services Agreement is not complete, and is qualified in their entirety by reference to each agreement which are filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 16, 2013.
Mr. George Mesa, the sole owner of Contractor, has been the Company's Director of Security for the Company's Mexican mining concessions since September 2012. Mr. Mesa received stock options to acquire 1 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.12 in connection with that appointment.
In July and August 2013, the Company paid a total of $125,000 to a company controlled by Mr. George Mesa, our Director of Security, and owner of Mesa Acquisitions Group LLC. Mr. Mesa had previously advanced a like amount of funds to Resource Technology Corp. ("RTC") in connection with the transportation of ore supply, and related costs.

Corporate Matters.
On January 31, 2014, the Company filed the Certificate of Designations with the Delaware Secretary of State. The Certificate of Designation allows for the creation and issuance of the 1,250,000 shares of Preferred Stock. As stated in the Certificate of Designations, each share of the Preferred Stock has identical rights as 100 shares of the Company's common stock. These rights, privileges and preferences include among others; (i) each share of Preferred Stock shall have 100 to 1 voting rights, voting along with the Company's common stock, (ii) each share of Preferred Stock shall have 100 to 1 rights upon liquidation and distribution of the Company, (iii) each share of Preferred Stock shall have the right to convert into 100 shares of common stock of the Company. On January 29, 2014, the Company's Board of Directors approved the Certificate of Designations, the filings of the Certificate of Designations with the Delaware Secretary of State and the issuance of the Preferred stock created thereby to RTC.
On April 16, 2014, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State ("Certificate of Amendment"). The Certificate of Amendment increases the authorized shares of common stock, $0.00001 par value, of the Company from 150,000,000 to 325,000,000 shares. The Company previously filed a Schedule 14C Definitive Information Statement with respect to the Certificate of Amendment on March 26, 2014, and mailed the Information Statement to its shareholders on that same date.
During the three months ended August 31, 2014, the Company issued:
i)    5,046,667 shares of its common stock, together with warrants to buy 2,523,334 shares of its common stock for proceeds of $455,975. The warrants had terms of 12 months and exercise prices of $0.125 or $0.20.
ii)            3,040,622 shares of commons stock in settlement of convertible notes payable, accrued interest, debt discount and derivative liabilities totaling $462,591
iii)            2,250,000 shares valued at $495,000 as compensation to its nine directors.
In addition, 100,000 warrants with an exercise price of $0.15 were exercised for cash proceeds of $15,000 and 800,000 warrants expired, unexercised.
On June 24, 2014, the Company and Dr. Edgar Choueiri entered into a Consulting Agreement, pursuant to which Dr. Choueiri agreed to provide certain consulting services to the Company with respect to plasma processing. The agreement is on a month to month basis, and Dr. Choueiri, among other terms, will receive a remuneration of $4,000 per month. In addition, in connection with the agreement, Dr. Choueiri resigned from the Board of Directors of the Company.

36

On August 27, 2014, the Board of Directors approved the following:
1)
the establishment of a 2014 Stock Option Plan for up to 20,000,000 shares of common stock, and
2)
the creation of an advisory board, and appointed a Mexican national to its advisory board to assist the Company with its operations in Mexico, including regulatory affairs. The Company also granted 1,000,000 stock options to this individual under the newly created 2014 Stock Option Plan. The option exercise price is $0.23 per share.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, we have experienced continuing losses since Inception (January 21, 1998), and as at August 31, 2014, have a working capital deficit of $4,778,113, accumulated losses of $51,184,512, recurring negative cash flows from operations and presently do not have sufficient resources to meet our outstanding liabilities or accomplish our objectives during the next twelve months.
As at August 31, 2014, we were in default on repayment of convertible promissory notes with principal balances of $550,000 together with accrued interest of $453,096 totaling $1,003,096.
Moreover, effective May 23, 2012, we amended our Settlement Agreement and Payment Agreement with our former attorneys. As result of the amendment, the payment of the initial installment of $403,554, originally due on May 24, 2012, was extended to July 24, 2012. In addition, commencing May 23, 2012, interest accrued on the amount due, which is $1,614,216, at the rate of 5% per annum. We were unable to make the scheduled payment of $403,554 and accrued interest on July 24, 2012 and defaulted under the terms of this agreement, and the entire amount, including interest, became due and payable. On October 1, 2012, we entered into a second amendment to our Settlement Agreement and Payment Agreement with our former attorneys effective July 23, 2012. As a result of the second amendment, the date for the payment of the initial installment of $403,554 was extended to December 1, 2012. We have failed to make this schedule payment on December 1, 2012. Thus, our former attorneys have the ability to avail themselves of all rights and privileges under the existing agreements with us and under the laws of Mexico and the United States. During the twelve months ended May 31, 2014 we made a single payment of $25,000 in respect of this liability. The total balance due to our former attorneys, including accrued interest, at August 31, 2014 was $1,770,560.
In addition, we owe another former attorney the sum of approximately $90,000 under an arbitration award. The attorney has initiated efforts to effect a judgment against the Company.
At the time of this report, we do not have the funding available to repay the convertible promissory notes, make the payment required under the amended agreement with our former attorneys or pay the arbitration award to the other former attorney.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
In our audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2014 and 2013, contained in our Annual Report, the Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm includes an explanatory paragraph that describes substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Since we do not anticipate generating any revenue for the foreseeable future, we will have to continue to seek additional funding from outside sources. However, we are facing volatile financial markets that may make it difficult to satisfy our need for additional capital to finance our plan of operations for fiscal 2015 through either debt or equity. As a result, we continue to seek appropriate opportunities that are likely to provide us with adequate fiscal resources to execute our plan of operations in the current fiscal year and beyond.
 
37

Depending on market conditions and the options available to us, we may attempt to enter into a joint venture with an operating company or permit an operating company or third party to undertake exploration work on the Solidaridad Property, we may attempt to sell all or part of our Solidaridad Property, or we may seek equity or debt financing (including borrowing from commercial lenders) or we may consider a sale of ourselves or our assets.
To date, we have raised capital through the sale of shares of our common stock and sales of convertible promissory notes.
During the three months ended August 31, 2014, we sold 5,046,667 shares of our common stock, together with warrants to buy 2,523,334 shares of our common stock for proceeds of $455,975. The warrants had terms of 12 months and exercise prices of $0.125 or $0.20.We further issued 3,040,622 shares of commons stock in settlement of convertible notes payable, accrued interest, debt discount and derivative liabilities totaling $462,591. We also received $15,000 from the exercise of 100,000 warrants with an exercise price of $01.5.
As mentioned above, we must obtain additional funding to continue our operations. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to obtain additional funding on terms that are favorable to us or at all. As an exploration stage company, we have no current ability to generate revenue and no plans to do so in the foreseeable future. Our assets consist of cash, prepaid expenses, nominal equipment and certain mineral property interests. There can be no assurance that we will obtain sufficient funding to continue operations, or if, we do receive funding, to generate revenues in the future or to operate profitably in the future. We have incurred net losses in each fiscal year since Inception of our operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Because of the exploratory nature of our current business plan, we anticipate incurring operating losses for the foreseeable future. Our future financial results also are uncertain due to a number of factors, some of which are outside our control. These factors include, but are not limited to:
i.
Our ability to raise sufficient additional funding;
ii.
The results of our proposed exploration programs on the Solidaridad Property; and
iii.
Assuming significant mineral deposits, our ability to be successful in commercially producing mineral deposits, find joint venture partners for the development of our property interests or find a purchaser for the property interests.

The decrease arose because there no derivatives outstanding throughout the three months ended August 31, 2014 while there were during the three months ended August 31, 2013 and consequently more variance during the three month ended August 31, 2013 as compared to the three months ended August 31, 2014.

ITEM 3. QUANTATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
 
As a "smaller reporting company" as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this Item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
 
Our management team, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the " Exchange Act "), as of the last day of the fiscal period covered by this report, August 31, 2014.The term disclosure controls and procedures means our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of August 31, 2013. Specifically, we concluded that we had identified a significant deficiency with respect to the operation of our internal controls relating to the documentation and authorization procedures of certain travel and entertaining expenses incurred by certain directors, officers and non-Company individuals as of August 31, 2014. In order to correct the above described deficiency, the Company established an Ad Hoc Committee, consisting of two directors who also are attorneys. The committee has been authorized to review and approve all Company related expenses.
39

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
During the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2014, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART 2: OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On April 3, 2012, as we have previously reported, Mr. Israel Tentory Garcia filed an action against our Mexican subsidiary, US Precious Metals SA de CV, wherein the plaintiff asserted a number of claims against us, including a demand for the return of one of our concessions (Solidaridad I) for failure to develop the concession. The case was filed in a local court in the Federal District of Mexico City. On May 21, 2013, the Court ruled that the Plaintiff did not prove the claims asserted in the lawsuit, and that our subsidiary is not liable to for any of such claims.
On June 12, 2014, our Mexican subsidiary, US Precious Metals SA de CV was served with another lawsuit from Mr. Israel Tentory Garcia along with seven other plaintiffs. The lawsuit was filed in a commercial court in Mexico City. The claims of the new lawsuit essentially restate the claims of the original lawsuit filed in April 2012.
By way of background, the plaintiffs obtained the exploration rights to the concession known as Solidaridad I from the Mexican government on November 24, 1996. These exploration rights expired on November 23, 2001 under the terms of the concession from the government and as prescribed by the governing statute. On March 13, 2003, we entered into an agreement with the plaintiffs pursuant to which they assigned their rights to this (expired) concession to our Mexican subsidiary. In July 2003, our Mexican subsidiary then applied for and obtained a new exploration and exploitation concession from the Mexican government covering Solidaridad I. The new concession expires July 2053.
Pursuant to this 2003 agreement with the plaintiffs, we issued 1.5 million shares of our common stock to them. The agreement further provided for the payment of $1 million to the plaintiffs upon the occurrence of a sale of the concession for exploitation purposes. In the original action filed in 2012 and in the current action, plaintiff(s) claim that under the agreement the $1 million payment was due and payable no later than 2009 and ownership of the mining concession should revert back to the plaintiff(s) due to the non-payment.
We have retained counsel in Mexico to represent our subsidiary in this matter. We strongly dispute the allegations raised in the lawsuit and intend to vigorously defend the lawsuit. Our defense will include, among other positions, the fact that plaintiffs had no concession rights to assign under the March 2003 agreement as their concession expired 16 months earlier, we independently obtained the rights to a new (and current) concession from the Mexican government in July 2003, the agreement is ambiguous as to the payment requirement in 2009 and the matter was previously adjudicated in our favor in earlier action, albeit in a different court. We have filed an answer to the above complaint.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
 
During the three months ended August 31, 2013, we received $455,950 from the sale of 5,046,667 units. Each unit consists of one share of our common stock, and one half of a warrant. The warrants had terms of 12 months and exercise prices of $0.125 or $0.20. The transaction was exempt under Section 4(2) and 3(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated there under, including Regulations D, due to the facts that the investor was an accredited investor, had acquired the shares for investment purposes and not with a view for re-distribution, had access to sufficient information concerning the Company, and the certificate(s) representing such shares will bear a restrictive legend.
 
40

During the three months ended August 31, 2013, we received $190,000 from the sale of 1,900,000 units. Each unit consists of one share of our common stock, and one half of a warrant. The warrants had terms of 6 or 12 months and exercise prices of $0.15 or $0.20. The transaction was exempt under Section 4(2) and 3(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated there under, including Regulations D, due to the facts that the investor was an accredited investor, had acquired the shares for investment purposes and not with a view for re-distribution, had access to sufficient information concerning the Company, and the certificate(s) representing such shares will bear a restrictive legend.
ITEM 3. DEFAULT OF SENIOR SECURITIES.
 
As at August 31, 2014, we were in default on repayment of convertible promissory notes with principal balances of $550,000 together with accrued interest of $453,096 totaling $1,003,096.
 
As of the date of this report, we have not paid the holders of these notes as required under their terms.
 
ITEM 4. MINING SAFETY DISCLOSURES
 
Mining operations and properties in the United States are subject to regulation by the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration ("MSHA") under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the "Mine Act"). Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), issuers are required to disclose specified health and safety violations, orders and citations, related assessments and legal actions, and mining-related fatalities.
During the three month periods ending August 31, 2013 and, 2012, we did not conduct mining operations nor maintain any mining properties in the US. Consequently we were not subject to any health or safety violations, orders and citations, related assessments and legal actions, and mining-related fatalities during the three month periods ending August 31, 2013 and 2012.
