REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
International Silver, Inc
(An Exploration Stage Company)
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets of International Silver, Inc. as of June 30, 2010, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month and six-month period ended June 30, 2010 and from inception June 16, 2006 through June 30, 2010. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's management.
We conduct our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists of principally applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for the financials and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such condensed consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been reviewed assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note A to the financial statements, the Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note A. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

International Silver, Inc.
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note A - Organization and Business
General
International Silver, Inc. is an exploration stage company, as set forth in FASB ASC 915 – Development Stage Entities 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 was incorporated in the State of Arizona, as ARX Engineering, Inc., on September 4, 1992. On June 16, 2006, the Board of Directors adopted a new business strategy to change its emphasis from providing engineering services to conducting mine exploration and development, including changing its name to International Silver, Inc.
The Company’s strategy consists of acquiring and exploring high-grade silver properties throughout North and South America.
Condensed Financial Statements
The accompanying interim consolidated 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, 2010 and December 31, 2009 and results of operations and cash flows for the comparative periods at June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 and for the comparative periods June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 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 interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s December 31, 2009 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
Going Concern
The Company’s condensed 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 condensed 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 subsidiaries Metales Preciosos Atlas, S.A. de C.V., Mexico and Western States Engineering, Inc. The Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based on 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.
The Company has a 98% interest Metales Preciosos Atlas, S.A. de C.V., a Mexico corporation. This foreign subsidiary was acquired November, 2006 when Atlas Precious Metals Inc., a related party, spun off Metales Preciosos Atlas, S.A. de C.V. in exchange for 300,000 shares of International Silver, Inc. common stock. Also, the Company also has a wholly-owned subsidiary, Western States Engineering, Inc., a U.S. company which provides Engineering services, primarily to mining entities.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management has evaluated the recent accounting pronouncements issued since the audited financial statements and in managements’ opinion, the relevant pronouncements reviewed have no material effect on the Company’s condensed financial statements.
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; 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 condensed 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 ASC 830-10. 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 Receivable
Accounts receivable are stated, net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts. At June 30, 2010 and at December 31, 2009, respectively, account receivables were $29,199 with an allowance for uncollectible accounts for the full amount, bringing the net amount due to zero. The receivable stems from a third-party engineering consulting contract with Western Utah Copper Company who ceased remitting payments. It is not anticipated that this third-party will remit amounts due anytime soon, therefore management elected to establish a provision for the remainder of the receivable balance.
Investments
Investments in marketable securities are classified under one of three methods:
The accounting treatment accorded any investment will depend on whether the presence of ‘significant influence” over an investee exisits. If the investor owns at least 20% of its common stock, then significant influence is assumed. If there is less than 20% ownership or if there is no significant influence over an investee, the investment is valued at the Fair Value Method, otherwise the Equity Method is utilized. At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company held securities “available for sale” that were reported under the Fair Value method.
At June 30, 2010, the Company held 25,000 shares of Atlas Precious Metals Inc. common stock, whose value was considered impaired. Refer to Note D – Investment in Securities for further discussion.
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, 2010 and December 31, 2009, all mineral interests were in the exploration stage.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The company adheres to ASC 360-10-20, "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 March 31, 2010, the Company incurred an impairment loss on mining property, as disclosed in Note D.
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, 2010, there had been no production from any of the Company's properties.
Reclamation and Remediation Costs (Asset Retirement Obligations)
The Company has adopted ASC 410-20 - Asset Retirement Obligation which 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 ASC 410-20 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, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740-10-30 - Accounting for Income Taxes. ASC 740-10-30 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, ASC 740-10-35 generally considers all expected future events other than enactments of changes in the tax law or rates. Income tax information is disclosed in Note E to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
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. The total deferred tax asset is 37% of the cumulative net operating loss.
Statement of Cash Flows Information and Supplemental Non-Cash Financing Activities
There were no interest cash payments during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and $109 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. “Non-cash" investing and financing transactions during the reported periods related primarily to the sale of mining property in exchange for shares of common stock, as discussed in Note D.
Comprehensive Income
ASC 220-10-55-2 - 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. On June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company did not have any material items of comprehensive income.
Stock-Based Compensation
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, issued ASC 718 - Share-Based Payment, 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. ASC 718 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, ASC 718 is effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2005. In 2009, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a resolution for the stock issuance to officers and employees to recognize the cost of employee services. The Company does not presently have a plan in place, nor does it anticipate having one in the near future. At June 30, 2010, the Company has not been significantly impacted by ASC 718.
Note C – Mining Properties
On March 1, 2010, the Company purchased a 70% interest in the Estrades Mine, including all facilities and equipment located at or used in connection with the property and certain other related properties, and mining claims and leases located in the Township of Estrades, Oivilliers in the Province of Quebec, Canada, from Atlas Precious Metals Inc., a related party, in exchange for 6,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
The valuation in this interest was determined by applying ASC 505-50 – Equity Based Payments To Non-Employees. Specifically, ASC 505-50-30-6 requires that, “if the fair value of the equity instruments issued in a share-based payment transaction with non-employees is more reliably measurable than the fair value of the consideration received, the transaction shall be measured based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued”.
Although issuance of the stock to be given in exchange was pending at March 31, 2010, the quantity and terms of the equity instrument was known up front, thus the fair value assigned is based on the ‘lowest aggregate fair value. In establishing the “lowest aggregate fair value”, the 6,000,000 shares exchanged for this interest was deemed to have a value of $0.0025/share, for an aggregate amount of $15,000. This represents a 97.5% discount from the market price of our stock on the date of the contractual agreement, recognizing the large size of the block we issued compared with the average monthly volume and the restrictions on the shares we issued.
On March 31, 2010, the Company reviewed its mineral holdings and determined that the 70% interest in the Estrades Mine valuation was impaired, as it had not been operational for several years and future positive cash flows determined on a discounted cash flow method could not be ascertained, consequently recorded an impairment of $15,000.
During March, 2010, the Company negotiated the terms in a contract for the sale of the Estrades Mine in exchange for 6,000,000 shares of common stock in Continental Mining and Smelting Limited. As of June 30, 2010 the finalization was pending the issuance of stock from Continental Mining and Smelting Limited.
Note D – Investment in Securities
During 2008, the Company relinquished its holdings in the Tecoma Mining District back to the original seller, in return for the shares in common stock that were part of the consideration given on the original purchase of the property As a result, the Company obtained 25,000 shares of the common stock of Atlas Precious Metals Inc., a privately-held and related company to International Silver, Inc. These shares were originally held by the Company’s shareholder/officer, who transferred these shares to the seller of the Tecoma Mining District property, in exchange for a note from the Company (Refer to Note G). At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the carrying value of these securities was considered impaired and have no value at the end of each respectively accounting period.
At June 30, 2010, the Company held the following securities:

Our deferred tax benefit is adjusted for interim results, but we simultaneously adjust the allowance for a net zero effect.
Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.

The primary amounts due to related parties stems from various loans made, prior to 2007, by a shareholder/officer, H.R. Shipes, who principally funded the Company operations prior to the Company going public.

In the early part of 2008, H.R. Shipes, a shareholder/officer, lent the Company $90,000 to the Company so it could avail itself of an option to purchase mineral properties in the State of California. The principal part of this loan was paid on September 8, 2008, in an exchange for 335,567 shares of the Company’s common stock.

ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION’S AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management Discussion and Analysis Section
Forward-Looking Statements
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and its related notes. The terms “we,” “our” or “us” refer to International Silver, Inc. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based on our current expectations, assumptions, and estimates. The words or phrases “believe,” “expect,” “may,” “anticipates,” or similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements.” The results shown herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in any future periods. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of risks and uncertainties pertaining to our business, included the risk factors contained herein.
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. To-date, we have not generated any revenues from any of these activities since approximately June, 2006, when we switched our emphasis in our business plan and commenced our mineral exploration business. To date, our exploration activities have been limited to the exploration and purchasing of mineral interests in the United States and Mexico.
Financial Condition and Changes in Financial Condition
Changes in our financial condition for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009 are summarized as follows:
Assets
As of June 30, 2010, we had total assets of $73,513 compared to total assets of $76,984 as of June 30, 2009, representing a decrease of 5% or $3,471 from a year ago. Changes for the three months ended June 30, 2010 in comparison to the three months ended June 30, 2009 were as follows:
-
|
Cash on hand at June 30, 2010 was $54,937, an increase by $13,779 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 versus a cash balance of $24,921 at June 30, 2009, an increase of $1,489 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in cash during the current quarter is attributable to decreased expenditures and collection of receivables, whereas the changes were insignificant for three months ended June 30, 2009.
|
-
|
Trade receivable and amounts due from related parties at June 30, 2010 were $17,935, a decrease of $3,330 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 versus a receivables balance of $44,556 at June 30, 2009, which decreased by $8,315 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The reductions are attributable to continued efforts on the collection of receivables, which have resulted in the substantial decrease in receivables over the last two years.
|
-
|
Prepaid expenses at June 30, 2010 were $641, reflecting a slight decrease of $77 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 versus prepaid expenses of $7,153 at June 30, 2009, a decrease of $10,260 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Last year’s change resulted from a write-off on the expired portion ($10,000) of a prepaid contract with DME Capital, LLC for finance procurement services.
|
Liabilities and Equity Changes
As of June 30, 2010, we had total liabilities of $98,924 compared to total liabilities of $94,948 as of June 30, 2009, representing an increase of 4% or $3,975 from a year ago. Changes for the three months ended June 30, 2010 in comparison to the three months ended June 30, 2009 were as follows:
-
|
Trade payables and accrued expenses at June 30, 2010 were $3,229, an increase of $1,457 for three month period ended June 30, 2010 versus a payables balance of $3,632 at June 30, 2009, a decrease of $3,357 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. There was no significant change ($404) in trade payables and accrued expenses from the current quarter in comparison to the same time period in the prior year.
|
-
|
Due to related parties at June 30, 2010 were $95,695, reflecting no change for the three months ended June 30, 2010, versus a balance of $91,316, an increase of $6,873 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The net change, an increase of $4,379, from the current quarter in comparison to the same time period in the prior year, resulted from reimbursable business-related travel costs to an officer.
|
As of June 30, 2010, Shareholders’ Equity was ($21,881), reflecting an increase of $8,945 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 versus a Shareholders’ Equity balance of $14,434 at June 30, 2009, reflecting an increase of $20,700 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Changes for the three months ended June 30, 2010 in comparison to the three months ended June 30, 2009 were as follows:
-
|
The increases for both three-month ending periods reflect the net income realized. Lower profits were realized in the current quarter as compared to prior year’s comparative period due to decreased third-party engineering
consulting.
|
Changes in our financial condition for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009 are summarized as follows:
Assets
As of June 30, 2010, we had total assets of $73,513 compared to total assets of $76,984 as of June 30, 2009, representing a decrease of 5% or $3,471 from a year ago. Changes for the six months ended June 30, 2010 in comparison to the six months ended June 30, 2009 were as follows:
-
|
Cash on hand at June 30, 2010 was $54,937, an increase $19,190 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 versus cash on hand at June 30, 2009 of $24,921, a decrease of $25,353 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in cash during the current quarter is attributable to decreased expenditures and collection of receivables. The decrease for the same six month period in the prior year was a result a reduction in receivable collections for engineering services and payment of professional and consulting fees that were higher than normal.
|
-
|
Amounts due from related parties were $17,935 at June 30, 2010, a slight decrease of $228 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 versus a balance due from related parties of
$44,556
at June 30, 2009, an increase of $21,675 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2009 is attributable to increased receivables due from Atlas Precious Metals Inc. for engineering services.
|
-
|
Prepaid expenses were $641 at June 30, 2010, a decrease of $325 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010 versus a prepaid expense balance of $7,153, a decrease of $20,519 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The change for the prior year comparative period is due to the write-off or expiration of a portion of a prepaid consulting contract with DME Capital, LLC for finance procurement services.
|
Liabilities and Equity Changes
As of June 30, 2010, we had total liabilities of $98,924 compared to total liabilities of $94,948 as of June 30, 2009, representing an increase of 4% or $3,975 from a year ago. Changes for the six months ended June 30, 2010 in comparison to the six months ended June 30, 2009 were as follows:
-
|
Trade payables and accrued expenses were $3,229 at June 30, 2010, an increase of $1,457 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 versus a payable balance of $3,633 at June 30, 2009, a decrease of $3,343 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Although payables and accrued expense balance were comparable at June 30, 2010 versus June 30, 2009, the net change of $4,800 stems from accrued consulting fees at December 31, 2008, not present as of December 31, 2009.
|
-
|
Due to related parties was $95,695 at June 30, 2010, reflecting no change for the six months ended June 30, 2010, versus a balance of $91,316 at June 30, 2009, a slight increase of $321 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Although there is no significant change between the two comparative periods, the increase of $4,380 in due to related parties resulted from additional reimburseable business travel costs due an officer.
|
As of June 30, 2010, Shareholders’ Equity was ($21,881), reflecting an increase of $17,636 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 versus a Shareholder Equity balance of ($14,435) at June 30, 2009, reflecting a decrease of $28,721 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Changes for the six months ended June 30, 2010 in comparison to the six months ended June 30, 2009 were as follows:
-
|
This increase for the six months ended June 30, 2010 is primarily due to the issuance of six million (6,000,000) shares to Atlas Precious Metals Inc., valued at a discounted share price of $0.0025/share or $15,000 in
exchange a 70% interest in the Estrades Mine located in Quebec, Canada and the cancellation of $30,000 in
common shares previously issued. It also reflects net income from operations of $2,636 during the six months
ended June 30, 2010.
|
-
|
The decrease in shareholders’ equity during the six- months ended June 30, 2009 reflects the loss incurredduring those six months. During that period, we realized $70,626 in revenues with expenditures of
$99,691
.
The loss is attributable primarily to bad debt write-offs amounting to $5,957 and higher than normal consulting
fees in the amount of $27,000 associated with contracting DME Capital for procurement of financing for the
Company. In comparison, we realized $57,193 in revenues, but we incurred only
$39,557
in expenditures
during the six months ended June 30, 2010 or net income of $2,636.
|
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our financial statements as presented in Item 1 of this report have been prepared in conformity with US GAAP, which contemplate our continuation as a going concern. However, the report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the six months ended June 30, 2010, contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The “going concern” qualification results from, among other things, our development-stage status, no revenue recognized since inception and our net losses from inception as a development stage company, which total approximately $676,826, the outstanding arrangements with related parties and uncertainty in raising additional capital. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary if we were unable to continue as a going concern.
As of June 30, 2010, we had $54,937 in cash and have funded our operations through short-term notes payable with related parties and some on-going engineering consulting services. The capital required to execute our total business vision and objectives is significant. In 2010, we continue to be engaged in efforts to raise capital to fund the working capital requirements and exploration and development activities necessary to meet our business objectives. At present, we have been unsuccessful in raising capital in sufficient amounts to meet those objectives. During the first half of this year, we have substantially reduced our exploration activities in order to conserve cash. At this time, there is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the sufficient additional capital that is required to execute our exploration and development plans.
Cash and Cash Flows
Cash flow increased by $19,190 during the six months ended June 30, 2010, primarily as a result of decreased exploration activity and a reduction in consulting fees.
Working capital increased by $17,636 to $(25,411) at June 30, 2010, compared to $(43,047) at December 31, 2009, as a result of increased receivables and lower expenditures giving rise to increased cash.
Net cash flows from operating activities increased by 176% or $44,543 to $19,190 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to ($25,353) for the comparative six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase results primarily from decreased general and administrative expenses of $53,374, net of increased revenues of $13,433.
Investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2010 involved the purchase of mining property in exchange for 6.0 MM shares of common stock.
Our business plan does not reflect, nor do we anticipate, any revenues during our exploration phase, aside from ongoing engineering services rendered to an affiliate and others. We do not anticipate any other type of revenue until we confirm previously demonstrated mineralization, obtain operating permits, and construct mining and processing facilities at either our US or Mexican properties or both.
Spending Requirements
We anticipate total spending requirements of approximately $2,527,000 pending adequate financing over the next twelve months. We plan to undertake the following steps in our attempt to overcome our going concern qualification and our need 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 ;
|
|
·
|
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

Results of Operations – For The Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 (the “June 2010 Quarter”) as compared to The Three Months Ended June 30, 2009 (the “June 2009 Quarter”)
For the June 2010 Quarter , we recorded a net income of $8,945, as compared to a net loss of $20,828 for June 2009 Quarter or an increase of $29,776. The increase in net income is due to reduced expenditures in the areas of exploration and general and administrative expenses.
During June 2010 Quarter and June 2009 Quarter, we had revenues of $27,535 and $35,716, respectively. Revenues decreased by $8,181, attributable to decreased engineering services rendered to a third-party. No revenue is being currently being generated from mineral extraction activities, as we are still in the exploration stage.
Operating income increased by 143% or $29,912 to $8,945 for the June 2010 Quarter, from ($20,967) for the June 2009 Quarter. This increase is primarily due to reduced exploration costs and consulting expenditures. Exploration costs decreased by $1,200 to zero for the June 2010 Quarter, from $1,200 for the June 2009 quarter. Consulting fees decreased by $20,000 for the June 2010 quarter, as compared to the June 2009 Quarter.
Depreciation expense for the June 2010 quarter was nil, as was Interest expense, while depreciation and interest for June 2009 Quarter were insignificant.
Results of Operations – For The Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 (the “First Half of 2010 ”) as compared to The Six Months Ended June 30, 2009 (the “first Half of 2009 ”)
For the First Half of 2010, we recorded a net income of $2,636, as compared to a net loss of $28,899 for First Half of 2009 or an increase of $31,535. The increase in net income is due to reduced expenditures in the areas of exploration and general and administrative expenses.
During First Half of 2010 and First Half of 2009, we had revenues of $57,193 and $70,626, respectively. Revenues decreased by $13,181, attributable to decreased engineering services rendered to a third-party. No revenue is being currently being generated from mineral extraction activities, as we are still in the exploration stage.
Operating income increased by $46,701 to $17,636 for the First Half of 2010, from ($29,065) for the First Half of 2009. This increase is primarily due to reduced exploration costs and consulting and professional fees as a result of a cutback in exploration activities. Exploration costs decreased by $6,663 to zero for the First Half of 2010, from $6,663 for the First Half of 2009. Consulting fees decreased by $27,590 due to the expiration of a prepaid contract for the financing procurement services, as compared to the First Half of 2009, while professional fees also decreased by $11,410, as compared to the First Half of 2009.
Depreciation expense for the First Half of 2010 was nil, as was Interest expense, while depreciation and interest for first Half of 2009 were insignificant.
Exploration Costs – Inception to Date

These direct exploration costs account for approximately 25% of the total operating expenditures of $1,062,407, since our exploration activities commenced on June 16, 2006. General and administrative expenses, which include salaries, consulting, rent, and travel, comprise the majority of the remaining of the operating expenditures for this time period.
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.
|
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 where such entity provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to, or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.
|
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or commitments that have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material.
Changes in Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies outlined within our Consolidated Financial Statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 have been applied consistently with the year ended December 31, 2009.
Recently Enacted Accounting Standards
Management has evaluated the recent accounting pronouncements issued since the audited financial statements and in managements’s opinion, the relevant pronouncements reviewed have no material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
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, at an approximate cost of $2.5 million. 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.
Mexico Properties
We will continue to hold the El Cumbro, El Cusito, and Canada de Oro Properties for future exploration.
USA Properties - The Leviathon property in San Bernardino County, California
We will explore the Leviathon property for silver and barite at a total cost of $2,527,000. We will use one Field Geologist, four workers and infrastructure for our Leviathon property. Equipment to be used to conduct the Leviathon exploration program is shown below:

ITEM 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 second quarter ending June 30, 2010, 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, 2010. 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, 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 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 June 30, 2010, we have an accumulated deficit of $852,860. 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 $2.5 million of financing, we will be unable to pursue our planned business operations and 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.
