Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note
A - Organization and Business
General
International
Silver, Inc., an exploration stage company, as set forth in Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards, “SFAS” No. 7, Accounting and Reporting by
Development Stage Enterprises” and “Industry Guide 7” of the Securities and
Exchange Commission’s Guides for the Preparation of Registration Statements and
with the Society for Mining, Metallurgy and Exploration’s “Guide for Reporting
Exploration Information, Mineral Resources, and Mineral Reserves” dated March 1,
1999. The Company’s strategy consists of acquiring and exploring high-grade
silver properties throughout North and South America.
Condensed
Financial Statements
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without
audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only
normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position
for
the periods ended June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and results of operations
and cash flows for the comparative periods at June 30, 2008 and June 30,
2007
and for the comparative periods March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2007 have
been
made.
Certain
information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
the
United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested
that
these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s December 31, 2007 audited
financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended June
30,
2008 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full
year.
Going
Concern
The
Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going
concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of
liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet
established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating
costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company
to
continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate
capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company
is
unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease
operations.
In
order
to continue as a going concern, the company will need, among other things,
additional capital resources. Management’s plans to obtain such resources for
the Company include (1) obtaining capital from management and significant
shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses, and (2)
initiating an initial public offering.
The
ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon
its
ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding
paragraph and eventually secure other resources of financing and attain
profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include
any
adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue
as a
going concern.
Note
B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles
of Consolidation
The
financial statements include the accounts of International Silver, Inc.
and its
subsidiary Metals Preciosos Atlas, S.A. de C.V., Mexico. The Company’s financial
condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial
statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The Company has elected
to
adopt U.S. currency as the functional currency for the accounting of its
Mexican
subsidiary. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use
of
Estimates
Preparation
of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements
and
accompanying notes. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates
include the determination of mineral ore quantities and the depletion expense
calculation, if applicable, useful lives of property and equipment for
depreciation, impairment valuations and calculation of any deferred taxes.
Actual results may differ from those estimates, and such differences may
be
material to the financial statements.
Foreign
Currency
The
functional currency for our foreign subsidiary is U.S. dollars. The Company
has
elected to use the “remeasurement method”, also referred to as the
“monetary/nonmonetary method” pursuant to FAS 52. This method translates
monetary assets at the current rate, while nonmonetary assets, liabilities
and
equity are translated at their appropriate historical rates. Where the
local
currency is used to record transactions, any material currency translation
gains
or losses would be included as an element of comprehensive income in the
statement of operations and in the equity section of the balance sheet.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
Our
cash
equivalents and prepaid expenses (and trade receivables when recorded)
are
exposed to concentrations of credit risk. We manage and control risk by
maintaining cash with major financial institutions. Management believes
that the
financial institutions are financially sound and the risk of loss is low.
Concentrations
and Economic Vulnerability
Concentrations
and economic vulnerability include reliance on several areas containing
our
mining prospects in isolated regions of Mexico, limited financial capacity
of
related parties and/or others to continue funding operations.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
Due
to
their short-term nature, the carrying value of our current financial assets
and
liabilities approximates their fair values. The fair value of our borrowings,
if
recalculated based on current interest rates, would not significantly differ
from the recorded amounts.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
For
the
statement of cash flows, any liquid investments with a maturity of three
months
or less at the time of acquisition are considered to be cash equivalents.
Accounts
Receivables
Trade
receivables are stated, net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts,
based on
prior experience.
Inventories
In-process
inventories represent ore that is currently in the process of being converted
to
a saleable product. In-process inventories, if any, are valued at the lower
of
average production cost or net realizable value. At June 30, 2008 and December
31, 2007 there were no inventories on hand.
In
November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, which revised ARB No. 43,
relating
to inventory costs. This revision is to clarify the accounting for abnormal
amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted material
(spoilage). This Statement requires that these items be recognized as a
current
period charge regardless of whether they meet the criterion specified in
ARB 43.
In addition, this Statement requires the allocation of fixed production
overheads to the costs of conversion be based on normal capacity of the
production facilities. This Statement is effective for financial statements
for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repair costs are charged
to
expense as incurred, and renewals and improvements that extend the useful
life
of assets are capitalized. Depreciation on property and equipment is computed
using the straight-line method over the assets' estimated useful lives
as
follows:
Mining
equipment
|
7
years
|
Vehicles
|
3
years
|
Office
equipment
|
5
years
|
Mineral
Development
Costs
associated with the acquisition of mineral interests, in the exploration
stage,
are “expensed”. Mineral exploration costs are also “expensed” as incurred. Mine
infrastructure development costs incurred prior to establishing proven
and
probable reserves are expensed. When it otherwise becomes probable that
infrastructure costs will not be recoverable, they are impaired. When it
has
been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed,
the costs
incurred to develop such property, including costs to further delineate
the ore
body and remove overburden to initially expose the ore body, are capitalized
as
incurred. These costs will then be amortized using the units-of-production
method over the estimated life of the ore body based on estimated recoverable
ounces of proven and probable reserves.
To
the
extent that any development costs benefit an entire mineralized property,
they
are amortized over the estimated life of the property. The specific capitalized
cost bases subject to depletion are calculated on a formula based on the
number
of tons of ore that are expected to be mined divided by the total tons
in proven
and probable reserves in the property. To date, no development has occurred,
nor
has depletion has been taken, since production has not commenced.
Mineral
Interests and Property
Mineral
interests include the costs of acquired mineral rights and royalty interests
in
production, development and exploration stage properties.
Production
stage mineral interests represent interests in operating properties that
contain
proven and probable reserves. Development stage mineral interests represent
interests in properties under development that contain proven and probable
reserves. Exploration stage mineral interests represent interests in properties
that are believed to potentially contain mineralized material.
Mineral
interests related to mining properties in the production stage are amortized
over the life of the related property using the Units of Production method
in
order to match the amortization with the expected underlying future cash
flows.
Development stage mineral interests are not amortized until such time as
the
underlying property is converted to the production stage. At June 30, 2008
and
December 31, 2007, all mineral interests were in the exploration
stage.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
The
company adheres to the Statement of Financial Standard ("SFAS") No. 144,
"Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," which
requires that long-lived assets to be held and used be reviewed for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of
an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized
when the
estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset
and
would be calculated based on discounted cash flows. At June 30, 2008 and
December 31, 2007, no assets were impaired.
Revenue
Recognition and Production Costs
Revenue
is recognized when the price is determinable, upon delivery and transfer
of
title of product to the customer and when the collection of sales proceeds
is
assured. Production costs of silver, gold and other precious metals sold
include
labor and related direct and indirect costs of mine and plant operations.
Production costs are charged to operations as incurred. At June 30, 2008
and
December 31, 2007, there had been no production from any of the Company's
properties.
Reclamation
and Remediation Costs (Asset Retirement Obligations)
The
Company has adopted SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations."
SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations
associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated
asset retirement costs. Since the Company’s activities are in the exploration
and feasibility stage, there is no legal or contractual obligation for
reclamation or remediation of our mines or mining interests. As a result,
the
adoption of SFAS No. 143 does not currently have a material impact on our
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Earnings
(Loss) Per Share
Basic
income (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) attributable
to
the common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted net income per share reflects
the
potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities and other contracts
to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or
resulted
in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the
Company,
unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. The
Company has no potential common stock instruments, which would result in
diluted
income (loss) per share as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes” (“SFAS 109”). SFAS 109 is an
asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred
tax
assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events
that
have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In
estimating future tax consequences, SFAS 109 generally considers all expected
future events other than enactments of changes in the tax law or rates.
Deferred
taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are
recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and
tax
credit carry forwards and deferred tax assets are recognized for taxable
temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between
the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred
tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax
assets
will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted
for the
effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Statement
of Cash Flows Information and Supplemental Non-Cash Financing
Activities
There
were no “Non-cash" investing and financing transactions during the reported
periods related.
Certain
Equity Instruments
In
June
2003, the FASB approved Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
150,
"Accounting for
Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity"
(“
SFAS No. 150”). SFAS
150
establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain
financial instruments with
characteristics
of both liabilities and equity. At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007,
the
Company is not impacted by this requirement.
Comprehensive
Income
Standards
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (“SFAS 130”), "Reporting Comprehensive
Income", requires companies to classify items of other comprehensive income
by
their nature in a financial statement and display the accumulated balance
of
other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional
paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position.
For
the periods ended June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company did
not have
any material items of comprehensive income.
Derivative
Instruments
In
June
1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities”. This statement as amended by SFAS No. 137 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Currently, the Company does
not have
any derivative financial instruments and does not participate in hedging
activities. Therefore, SFAS No. 133 did not have an impact on its financial
position or results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2008 and
December 31, 2007.
Stock-Based
Compensation
In
December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued
SFAS
No. 123R "Share-Based Payment," a revision to FASB No. 123. SFAS No. 123R
replaces existing requirements under SFAS No. 123 and APB Opinion No. 25,
and
requires “public” companies to recognize the cost of employee services received
in exchange for equity instruments, based on the grant-date fair value
of those
instruments, with limited exceptions. SFAS No. 123R also affects the pattern
in
which compensation cost is recognized, the accounting for employee share
purchase plans, and the accounting for income tax effects of share-based
payment
transactions. For small-business filers, SFAS No.123R is effective for
interim
periods beginning after December 15, 2005.
Non-Monetary
Exchanges
In
December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153. This Statement addresses the
measurement of exchanges of non-monetary assets. The guidance in APB Opinion
No.
29, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions, is based on the principle
that
exchanges of non-monetary assets should be measured based on the fair value
of
the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain
exceptions to that principle. This Statement amends APB No. Opinion 29
to
eliminate the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive
assets
and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary
assets
that do not have commercial substance. A non-monetary exchange has commercial
substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change
significantly as a result of the exchange. This Statement is effective
for
financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier
application is permitted for non-monetary asset exchanges incurred during
fiscal
years beginning after the date that this Statement was issued.

We
are an
exploration stage company that engages in minerals exploration activities in
the
United States and Mexico involving silver, gold, zinc, copper and other
minerals. We have generated no significant revenues since approximately
mid-2006, when we discontinued providing engineering services and commenced
with
our strategy of exploring for mineralized properties. Exploration activities
have been limited to the exploration and purchasing of mineral interests in
the
United States and Mexico.

Cash
decreased by 20% or $10,285 during the six months ended June 30,
2008 due
to continued exploration activities. Receivables increased by 86%
or
$75,582
due
to on-going feasibility studies under contract with a related company.
Other assets, comprised primarily of land and
and
non-refundable deposits increased by 93% or $89,813. During the
first half
of this year, we made a
non-refundable
deposit of $90,000 towards the purchase of land, with minerals
rights, in
California.

The
increase in liabilities is primarily the result of a $90,000 loan
from an
officer to facilitate the extension
of
the option period for the purchase of the Langtry property in California.
The increase is partially offset by the payoff
of
invoices payable. During the first half of the year an additional
150,000
shares were issued for legal services
pertaining
to services relating to the filing of our 10-K and 10-Q reports.
Accumulated deficit as of June 30,
2008
was ($509,928) compared to ($576,920) as of December 13, 2007,
representing a 12% reduction or $66,992. The profitable first half
of the
year
resulted
from rendering engineering services in the on-going preparation
of
feasibility studies for a related
company.

|
|
|
|
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At
June
30, 2008, we had working capital of $103,818, compared to $16,996 at December
31, 2007, representing an increase of
511%
or
$86,822. This increase is attributed to increased receivables from engineering
services provided and loan
proceeds
received from one of our an officers.
|
|
|
|
|
Net
cash outflows from operating activities increased by 68% or $21,886
over
the six month period ended June 30, 2008
|
as
compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2007. This increase
is
primarily due to the realization of cash
|
revenues
for feasibility studies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Cash
flows from investing activities at June 30, 2008 reflect an increase
of
$90,000 over the six-month period ended
|
June
30, 2007. These funds were applied as a deposit towards the purchase
of
the Langtry mining property located in
|
California.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Cash
flows from financing activities at June 30, 2008 reflect a 137%
increase
or $52,078 over the six-month period ended
|
June
30, 2007. During the first quarter of this year, a shareholder/officer
loaned us $90,000. Also,
|
during
the first half of 2007, an affiliated company loaned us $10,422,
which has
since been paid off.
|
Our
new
business plan does not reflect, nor do we anticipate, any revenues during
the
exploration phase. We do not anticipate earning any significant revenues
from
operations until we complete the purchase of the Langtry property, confirm
previously demonstrated mineralization, obtain operating permits and construct
mining and processing facilities, all of which there is no assurance we will
have sufficient financing to accomplish or be otherwise be successful at.
At the
same time, we must complete similar actions at our Tecoma properties and
our
Mexican properties, of which there is no guarantee that we will be successful
in
these activities.
Our
auditors have issued a going-concern statement on the reviewed financial
statements as of June 30, 2008 and our audited financial statements for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 as we have an accumulated deficit of
$509,928 through June 30, 2008. These and other matters raise substantial
doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. We will have to supplement
our
currently available funds to satisfy our cash requirements for the immediate
months through our efforts on collecting existing receivables and possible
limited equity funding. We anticipate total spending requirements of
approximately $19,000,000 pending adequate financing over the next eighteen
months, in the following areas:
|
·
|
$8,000,000
for the acquisition of the Langtry property;
|
|
·
|
$8,986,500
to proceed with the exploration of our properties and claims to
determine
whether there are commercially exploitable reserves of silver,
gold,
barite, lead, and zinc
|
|
·
|
$500,000
for working capital;
|
|
·
|
$200,000
for legal and accounting expenses; and
|
|
·
|
$1,300,000
for general and administrative
expenses
|
We
plan
to undertake the following steps in our attempt to overcome our going concern
qualification and our need for $18,986,500 of financing to accomplish our
operational plan:
|
·
|
Contact
broker-dealers to discuss and negotiate a broker dealer acting
as an
underwriter to conduct a public offering of our common stock sufficient
to
raise $18,986,600;
|
|
·
|
Contact
other companies with sufficient financial resources to fund our
operational activities to discuss and negotiate a joint venture
arrangement or a merger transaction where we would combine our
business
interests and objectives;
|
|
·
|
Contact
the fund managers of hedge funds and mutual funds to determine
whether
their interest in investing in our common stock sufficient to obtain
adequate financing; and
|
|
·
|
Raise
financing through a private placement of our common stock
|
We
had a
profit of $66,992 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to a
loss of
$74,670 for the six
months
ended June 30, 2007, representing an increase of $141,662. The primary
reason
for this increase is the consulting fees for on-going feasibility studies.
Revenues
for
the
six months ended June 30, 2008 were $176,016, while only $7,128 were
recognized for the six months ended
June
30,
2007.
Operating
expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 of $105,657 increased
by
43% or $31,906 over the
six-month
period ended June 30, 2007, representing an increase of $73,751 in operating
expenses. General and Administrative expenses were the
primary
reason for the increase in the area of geo-technical consulting, travel
and
lodging costs, as work continues on the
newly-acquired
mining properties.
Exploration
Costs - Inception to Date
On
June
16, 2006, our Board of Directors passed a resolution to change the nature
of its
operations from an engineering services company to an exploration company.
Since
converting our business plan to conducting exploration activities, we have
engaged in the following exploration activities and incurred the following
costs:
|
1)
|
Hired
a geotechnical consultant to assist launching an exploration
program;
|
|
2)
|
Commenced
the development of an exploration plan;
|
|
3)
|
Actively
sought mineral interests containing precious metals; and
|
|
4)
|

During
our early stage of exploration activities from June 1, 2006 through June
30,
2008
,
we have
incurred an additional $414,105
in
general and administration expenses comprised primarily of salaries, rent,
consulting fees, interest and travel expenditures.
Accumulated
losses incurred from the inception of the “exploration phase” of
$336,212
accounts
for approximately 66%
of
the
accumulated deficit of $509,928
reflected in the Shareholders’ Equity section. Prior activities as an
Engineering company accounts for the other portion of the deficit.
Uncertainties
and Trends
Our
revenues are dependent now, and in the future, upon the following factors:
|
·
|
Price
volatility in worldwide commodity prices, including silver, gold,
and
other minerals, which is affected by: (a) sale or purchase of silver
by
central banks and financial institutions; (b) interest rates; (c)
currency
exchange rates; (d) currency exchange rates; (e) inflation or deflation;
(f) speculation; and (g) fluctuating prices in worldwide and local
commodities for petroleum-related products, chemicals, and solvents,
which
will effect our ability to obtain additional and continuing
funding;
|
|
·
|
Global
and regional supply and demand of silver, bold, and other minerals,
including investment, industrial and jewelry demand;
|
|
·
|
Political
and economic conditions of major silver, gold or other mineral-producing
countries;
|
|
·
|
Threatened
changes to the U.S. Mining Law that may cause increasing federal
land
royalties, or other unanticipated consequences and related increased
costs
of conduct in mining operations in the United States; and
|
|
·
|
Our
Mexican properties are subject to foreign risk, such as passage
of onerous
regulatory exploration and mining requirements and availability
of
materials and supplies.
|
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We
have
not entered into any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement
with an entity unconsolidated with us under whom we have:
|
·
|
An
obligation under a guarantee
contract,
|
|
·
|
a
retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to the
unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as
credit,
liquidity or market risk support to such entity for such
assets,
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
any
obligation, including a contingent obligation, under a contract
that would
be accounted for as a derivative instrument, or
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
any
obligation, including a contingent obligation, arising out
of a variable
interest in an unconsolidated entity that is held by us and
material to us

Changes
in Accounting Policies
The
significant accounting policies outlined within our Consolidated Financial
Statements for the six months ended June 30, 2008 have been applied consistently
with the six months ended June 30, 2007.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS
No.155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments an Amendment
of FASB
Statements No. 133 and 140. This statement amends FASB No. 133, Accounting
for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities and No. 140, Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.
This statement resolves issues addressed in Statement 133 Implementation
Issued
No. D1, “Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized
Financial Assets.” The adoption of SFAS No. 155 did not have an impact on our
consolidated financial statements.
In
March
2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial
Assets
and Amendment of FASB Statement 140. This statement amends FASB Statement
No.
140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities, regarding the accounting for separately
recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. The adoption of SFAS
No.
156 did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This
statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair
value
in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures
about fair measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods
within those years. The adoption of SFAS 157 did not have an impact on our
consolidated financial statements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined
Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans and Amendment of FASB Statements
No 87, 88, 106 and 132(R). This statement improves financial reporting by
requiring an employer to recognize the over funded or under funded status
of a
defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as
an
asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize
changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through
comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net
assets
of a not for profit organization. The adoption of SFAS No. 158 did not have
an
impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Uncertainties
and Trends
Our operations,
potential funding, and potential revenues are dependent now, and in the
future, upon the following factors:
|
·
|
Price
volatility in worldwide commodity prices, including silver, gold,
and
other minerals, which is affected by: (a) sale or purchase of silver
by
central banks and financial institutions; (b) interest rates; (c)
currency
exchange rates; (d) inflation or deflation; (e) speculation; and
(f)
fluctuating prices in worldwide and local commodities for
petroleum-related products, chemicals, and solvents,
|
|
·
|
Global
and regional supply and demand of silver, gold, and other minerals,
including investment, industrial and jewelry
demand;
|
|
·
|
Political
and economic conditions of major silver, gold or other mineral-producing
countries;
|
|
·
|
Threatened
changes to the U.S. Mining Law that may cause increasing federal
land
royalties, or other unanticipated consequences and related increased
costs
of conduct in mining operations in the United States; and
|
|
·
|
Our
Mexican properties are subject to foreign risk, such as passage of
onerous
regulatory exploration and mining requirements and availability of
materials and supplies.
|
PLAN
OF OPERATIONS
Our
Plan
of Operations has been organized for each of our properties and claims to
account for the similarities and differences in the location, geology, the
prospective metals that may be hosted by each property or claim, and the current
stage of exploration of each property and claim; accordingly, we have several
Plans of Operations to account for those similarities and differences among
our
various properties and claims. Our Plans of Operations represent our Phase
I
exploration activities and are for a period of eighteen months. Based upon
our
analysis of the test results and feasibility studies, we will determine whether
to proceed with Phase II exploration and development, which will consist of
expanding identified ore blocks to the proven classification, permitting, and
development. We cannot determine, predict, or assure whether we will be able
to
proceed with Phase II exploration and development activities regarding any
of
our properties or claims. Our exploration activities will be conducted under
the
overall direction of our Consulting Geologist, but each Plan of Operations
described below will be directly managed and supervised by a Field Geologist
that we hire.

The
Langtry property in San Bernardino County, California
Our
entire Plan of Operations regarding the Langtry property is contingent upon
paying $8,000,000 to close on the purchase of the property, for which there
is
no assurance whatsoever that we will obtain sufficient financing.
We
will
explore the Langtry property for silver and barite at a total cost of $
4,570,000. Our Plan of Operations regarding the Langtry Property is interfaced
with and has been formulated in conjunction with the exploration activities
conducted by Superior Oil from 1971 to 1974, which are supported by drill
reports, assay results, mapping, grade and tonnage calculations, all of which
we
possess. Our exploration activities will be geared toward comparing our test
results against the Superior Oil’s prior drilling activities and results to
confirm the grade and tonnage calculations, and thus re-classify the reserves
to
the proven category, if any. This will entail 10,000 meters of new drilling,
sample splitting and preparation, assaying, reserve calculations, mine planning,
metallurgical testing and mill design, final feasibility studies and
permitting.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS
No.155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments an Amendment of
FASB
Statements No. 133 and 140. This statement amends FASB No. 133, Accounting
for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities and No. 140, Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.
This statement resolves issues addressed in Statement 133 Implementation Issued
No. D1, “Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized
Financial Assets.” The adoption of SFAS No. 155 did not have an impact on our
consolidated financial statements.
In
March
2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets
and Amendment of FASB Statement 140. This statement amends FASB Statement No.
140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities, regarding the accounting for separately
recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. The adoption of SFAS
No.
156 did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This
statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value
in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures
about fair measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods
within those years. The adoption of SFAS 157 did not have an impact on our
consolidated financial statements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined
Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans and Amendment of FASB Statements
No 87, 88, 106 and 132(R). This statement improves financial reporting by
requiring an employer to recognize the over funded or under funded status of
a
defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an
asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize
changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through
comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets
of a not for profit organization. The adoption of SFAS No. 158 did not have
an
impact on our consolidated financial statements.

4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of
disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") that is
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 specified in the Commission's rules
and
forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls
and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed
by
an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal
executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers,
or
persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
In
accordance with Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), our management, under the
supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered
by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures were effective, as of the end of the first quarter ending June 30,
2008, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed
in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's
rules and forms.
Changes
in internal controls
Our
management, with the participation our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, performed an evaluation as to whether any change in our
internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the financial
quarter ending June 30, 2008. Based on that evaluation, our Chief
Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that no change
occurred in our internal controls over financial reporting during the financial
quarter ending June 30, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial
reporting.

1A RISK FACTORS
Risk
Factors
In
addition to the other information provided in this Form 10-Q, you should
carefully consider the following risk factors (and others in our S-1
Registration Statement, which may be accessed at:
www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1419482/000114420408011274/v104636_s1a.htmn
)
in
evaluating our business before purchasing our common stock. Our exploration
activities are highly risky and speculative; accordingly, an investment in
our
common stock shares involves a high degree of risk. You should not invest in
our
common stock if you cannot afford to lose your entire investment. In considering
an investment in our common shares, you should carefully consider the following
risk factors together with all of the other information contained in our filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our S-1 Registration
Statement. Any of the following (along with other risk factors that are
discussed in our S-1 Registration Statement, and which includes more expansive
risk factor discussions pertaining to the risk factors discussed below), may
cause our exploration activities, prospects, financial condition or results
of
operations to be negatively impacted, which may lead to the loss of all or
part
of your investment.
Risks
Related to our Business Activities
.
Our
financial condition raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue
as a
going concern.
As
of our
December 31, 2007 year-end and as of the six month period ending June 30, 2008,
we had an accumulated deficit of $576,920 and $509,928, respectively. Our
auditor has issued a going concern opinion that there is substantial doubt
whether we can continue as an ongoing business.
If
we
fail to obtain approximately $19,000,000 of financing, we will be unable to
pursue our planned business operations will have to be curtailed or terminated,
in which case you will lose part or all of your investment in our common
stock.
Because
our properties or claims may never have reserves or be profitable, your
investment in our common shares may be negatively impacted.
None
of
the properties or claims on which we have the right to explore for silver and
other precious metals is known to have any confirmed commercially mineable
deposits of silver or other metals that may be mined at a profit. We may be
unable to develop our properties at a profit, either because:
|
·
|
the
deposits are not of the quality or size that would enable us to make
a
profit from actual mining activities; or
|
|
·
|
because
it may not be economically feasible to extract metals from the deposits.
|
In
either
case, you may lose part or all of you entire investment.
Because
we are an exploration stage company, we have no mining operations, and our
future operations are subject to substantial risks, we may never be successful
in conducting any future mining operations.
We
are
not a mining company, but rather a beginning stage exploration stage. We will
be
unable to generate revenues or make profits, unless we actually mine deposits,
if any actually exist.
We
lack an operating history in our current business plan and we have losses,
which
make it difficult for you to evaluate whether we will be able to continue our
operations or ever be profitable.
In
June
2006, we began our current business plan of conducting exploration for silver
and other minerals -- our short operating history has consisted of preliminary
exploration activities and non-income-producing activities. Accordingly, we
have
no adequate operating history for you to evaluate our future success or failure.
Our
management has conflicts of interest that may favor the interests of our
management, but to the detriment of our minority shareholders’
interests.
Our
officers and directors also serve as officers and/or directors of other mining
exploration companies and are related by family relations to one another. As
a
result, their personal interests and those of the companies that they are
affiliated with may come into conflict with our interests and those of our
minority stockholders. We as well as the other companies that our officers
and
directors are affiliated with may present our officers and directors with
business opportunities that are simultaneously desired. Additionally, we may
compete with these other companies for investment capital, technical resources,
key personnel and other things. You should carefully consider these potential
conflicts of interest before deciding whether to invest in our shares of our
common stock. We have not yet adopted a policy for resolving such conflicts
of
interests. Because the interests of our officers and the companies that they
are
affiliated with may disfavor our own interests and those of our minority
stockholders, you should carefully consider these conflicts of interest before
purchasing shares of our common stock.
The
services of our President and Chief Executive Officer, Executive Vice
President/Chief Financial Officer, Consulting Geologist, and our Vice President
of Administration and Logistics, are essential to the success of our business;
the loss of any of these personnel will adversely affect our
business.
Our
business depends upon the continued involvement of our officers, directors,
and
Consulting Geologist, each of whom have mining experience from 9 to 35 years.
The loss, individually or cumulatively, of these personnel would adversely
affect our business, prospects, and our ability to successfully conduct our
exploration activities. Before you decide whether to invest in our common stock,
you should carefully consider that the loss of their expertise, may negatively
impact your investment in our common stock.
We
may be denied the government licenses and permits or otherwise fail to comply
with federal and state requirements for our exploration activities.
Our
future exploration activities will require licenses, permits, or compliance
with
other state and federal requirements regarding prospecting, exports, taxes,
labor standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, land
use, environmental protection, mine safety and other matters. Delays or failures
to acquire required licenses or permits or successfully comply with the
pertinent federal and state regulations will negatively impact our
operations.
We
do not carry any property or casualty insurance and do not intend to carry
such
insurance in the near future which may expose us to liabilities that will
negatively affect our financial condition.
The
search for valuable minerals exposes us to numerous hazards. As a result, we
may
become subject to liability for such hazards, including environmental pollution,
cave-ins, unusual or unexpected geological conditions, ground or slope failures,
cave-ins, changes in the regulatory environment and natural phenomena such
as
inclement weather conditions, floods and earthquakes or other hazards that
we
cannot insure against or which we may elect not to insure. At the present time
we have no coverage to insure against these hazards. Should we incur liabilities
involving these hazards that may have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition.
If
we fail to make pay $7,900,200 for our purchase of the Langtry property, we
will lose our right to purchase the Langtry property.
To
complete the purchase of the Langtree property we are required to pay by
September 5, 2008, the $7,900,200 purchase price for that property. If
we are unable to purchase the Langtree property our operational plan will
be significantly impacted.
