(unaudited)

 

1.Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

 

Lone Star Gold, Inc. (the “Company” or “Lone Star”), formerly known as Keyser Resources, Inc. (“Keyser”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 26, 2007. The Company is an Exploration Stage Company as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915, Development Stage Entities.

 

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated any revenue since inception and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders and other investors, the ability of the Company to obtain any necessary financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. As at March 31, 2012, the Company has accumulated losses of $2,485,551 since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The unaudited financial statements as of March 31, 2012 and for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, and for the period November 26, 2007 (inception) to March 31, 2012 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2012 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, and for the period November 26, 2007 (inception) to March 31, 2012. The financial data and other information disclosed in these notes to the interim financial statements related to these periods are unaudited. The results for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarter of the entire year ending December 31, 2012.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and regulations. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2011 as included in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Principles of consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2.Related Party Transactions

 

All related party transactions are recorded at the exchange amount which is the value established and agreed to by the related party.

 

An advance from Maurice Bideaux, former chief executive officer and director, in the amount of $38,910, remains unpaid.

 

On January 13, 2012, the Company agreed to redeem certain shares of the common stock, 0.001 par value, of the Company (the Common Stock”) held by two of its principal shareholders. The Company redeemed 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock owned by Dan Ferris, for total consideration of $1.00. Mr. Ferris is the sole officer and director of the Company. In addition, the Company redeemed 22,500,000 shares of Common Stock held by John G. Rhoden, for total consideration of $1.00.

 

After redemption, Mr. Ferris owns 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock, and Mr. Rhoden owns 22,500,000 shares of Common Stock, representing 8.64% and 25.92%, respectively, of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. The redeemed shares of Common Stock were retired and restored to the status of authorized and unissued shares, and not held in treasury. The Company, Mr. Ferris and Mr. Rhoden agreed to effect the redemption in order to reduce the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock.

 

The redemption of the stock formerly owned by Mr. Ferris has been reflected on the books and records of the Company’s stock transfer agent. The stock transfer agent has not yet recorded the redemption of the stock formerly owned by Mr. Rhoden due to a delay caused by his inability to locate and deliver one of his stock certificates. However, the number of issued and outstanding shares reported by the Company in this Quarterly Report gives effect to this redemption.

3.Equity Line of Credit

 

On August 29, 2011, the Company and North American Gold Corp., a company organized under the laws of the Marshall Islands (“North American”), executed an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”). Under the Investment Agreement, North American agreed to invest up to $15,000,000 to purchase shares of  the Company’s $0.001 par value common stock (the “Common Stock”), in increments of $100,000 or an integral multiple thereof, at the Company’s option at any time through August 31, 2013 (the “Open Period”). During the Open Period, the Company has the option to deliver a put notice (a “Put Notice”) to North American that states the number of shares of Common Stock the Company proposes to sell to North American (the “Put Shares”), and the price per share for those Put Shares (the “Share Price”). The Share Price is equal to 90% of the volume weighted average closing price of the Common Stock for the 20 Trading Days immediately preceding the date on which the Company sends the Put Notice. The closing for the sale of the Put Shares pursuant to a Put Notice shall take place no later than 10 Trading Days after the date on which the Company sends such Put Notice. A “Trading Day” is defined as a day in which the NASDAQ stock market or OTC Bulletin Board is open for business.  North American has the right to refuse to close any requested sale of Put Shares because of negative market conditions affecting the Common Stock.

 

The original Investment Agreement required the Company to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Put Shares to fund the exploration and development of gold and silver mining concessions in the La Candelaria project in Chihuahua, Mexico. On November 9, 2011, the Company and North American executed a First Amendment to Investment Agreement, which states that the Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of Put Shares to fund operating expenses, working capital and general corporate activities related ot the exploration and development of gold and silver mining concessions held by the Company and/or a subsidiary in relation to the La Candelaria property, the Ocampo property, or any other properties agreed upon in advance by the Company and North American. The Company and North American have further agreed that the Company may use the proceeds of the Put Shares to fund operations related to the Mine Tailings project.

 

The sales of Put Shares will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, but will be issued under an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. Any Put Shares issued and sold to North American will be “restricted securities” and will be subject to applicable restrictions on resale.

 

4.Equity

 

On January 13, 2012, the Company agreed to redeem certain shares of Common Stock held by two of its principal shareholders. The Company agreed to redeem 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock owned by Dan Ferris, for total consideration of $1.00. In addition, the Company agreed to redeem 22,500,000 shares of Common Stock held by John G. Rhoden, for total consideration of $1.00. The redeemed shares of Common Stock are to be retired and restored to the status of authorized and unissued shares, and not held in treasury. (See Note 2)

 

On January 30, 2012, the Company issued 100,000 shares of its $0.001 par value Common Stock to Miguel Angel Jaramillo Tapia in accordance with the JV agreement (See Note 5). The fair market value of the shares on the date of issuance was $46,000.

La Candelaria Property

 

On May 31, 2011, Metales was formed, with the Company owning 70% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock.  The remaining 30% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Metales was issued to Gonzalez.  On June 10, 2011, Gonzalez assigned the Concessions to Metales.  The Concessions cover 800 hectares, or approximately 1,976 acres.

 

Gonzalez transferred the Concessions to Metales pursuant to an agreement with American Gold.    On August 17, 2011, in connection with its investment in Metales and the exploration and development of the Concessions, the Company, American Gold, and Gonzalez executed an Assignment Agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”) pursuant to which (a) American Gold assigned all of its right and interest in and to a Letter of Intent between American Gold and Gonzalez, and an Option to Purchase Agreement between American Gold and Gonzalez dated January 11, 2011 (the “Option Agreement”), (b) the Company accepted the assignment of all of the rights and interest of American Gold in and to the Letter of Intent and the Option Agreement, and (c) the Company assumed all of the duties and obligations of American Gold under the Letter of Intent and the Option Agreement with Gonzalez. Pursuant to the Assignment Agreement (which has an effective date of June 10, 2011), the Company has taken or will take the following actions in connection with transfer of the Concessions from Gonzalez to Metales:

 

1.The Company issued 125,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock to North American as repayment of the $125,000 that American Gold paid Gonzalez in connection with Option Agreement (the “American Gold Shares”) on August 17, 2011.

 

2.The Company issued 300,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock, with a fair value of $303,000, to Gonzalez on September 16, 2011.

 

3.The Company, either alone or through Metales, is obligated to fund $150,000 per year of development costs for three years, for a total of $450,000 (the “Work Plan”).

 

4.The Company paid Gonzalez an additional $125,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

 

The American Gold Shares were issued in the name of North American, with the agreement of American Gold.

 

Gonzalez retains a 2% Net Smelter Returns Royalty on the Property.  Metales is obligated to undertake work necessary to bring the existing geological survey on the Property up to NJ 43-101 standards.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, the Company advanced $50,000 under the Work Plan for the second year.

 

The Company has granted anti-dilution rights to Gonzalez, such that the Company must allow Gonzalez the opportunity to maintain his percentage stock ownership in the Company until the date on which the Company has complied fully with its obligations under the Option Agreement or January 11, 2014, whichever comes first.  Gonzalez has waived the exercise of his anti-dilution rights with respect to issuances of common stock to North American under the Investment Agreement.  In addition, the Company is obligated to issue 1,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock to Gonzalez upon the discovery of a 1 million-ounce equivalent gold deposit, as defined by industry standards as set forth by a recognized exchange in North America.  Finally, if the Company fails to comply with all its obligations under the Option Agreement before January 11, 2014, the Option Agreement will terminate and the Company will be obligated to return the Concessions to Gonzalez.

Employment Agreement

 

On July 12, 2011, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with Dan Ferris regarding his position as President of the Company.  The Employment Agreement has an initial term of three years, and after the initial term will automatically renew for successive one-year periods until terminated in accordance with the Agreement (the “Term”).  Mr. Ferris will be paid a base salary of $120,000 per year during the Term.  Mr. Ferris will also be entitled to receive 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s $0.001 common stock (“Common Stock“), which will be issued in three equal increments of 1,000,000 shares over the first 3 years of the Term.  The shares of Common Stock will not be registered under the Securities Act, and will be subject to restrictions on transfer.  Therefore, Mr. Ferris will receive 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock on July 12 of each of the years 2012, 2013, and 2014.  The Employment Agreement may be terminated voluntarily by either party upon 30 days written notice, upon Mr. Ferris’ death or disability, by mutual agreement at the end of the Term, or at any time for “cause” by the Company.  If Mr. Ferris’ employment is terminated for “cause”, or if he voluntarily resigns, then he would not be entitled to receive any shares of Common Stock that have not been issued as of the date of resignation or termination.  If Mr. Ferris’ employment is terminated for any other reason, he would receive the full 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock.  The Employment Agreement defines “cause” as the willful and continued failure by Ferris to perform his duties under the Employment Agreement, conviction of a felony, or engaging in conduct that is contrary to the best interests of the Company or adversely affects the Company’s reputation.  The fair market value of the stock grant on the date of the Employment Agreement was $3,000,000.  The Company recognized $249,999 in expense related to the stock grant during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

 

Tailings Project

 

On January 26, 2012, the Company, acting through a newly-formed subsidiary, entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the JV Agreement”) with Miguel Angel Jaramillo Tapia (“Jaramillo”), a resident of Mexico. Under the JV Agreement, Amiko Kay, S. de R.L. de C.V., a company organized under the laws of Mexico (“Amiko Kay”), and Jaramillo formed a joint venture to process 1,200,000 tons of mine tailings located in the city of Hidalgo Del Parral in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico (the Tailings”), and, after processing, to use, market and sell any minerals extracted from the Tailings. The Company owns 99% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Amiko Kay.

 

The Tailings consist of approximately 1.2 million tons of mine tailings from previous mining activity in the Chihuahua area over the last 100 years or more. Mine tailings represent the refuse remaining after ore has been processed. The joint venture between the Amiko Kay and Jaramillo (the Joint Venture”) has been formed to re-process the mine tailings heap to extract minerals that were not extracted during the initial processing, and to market and sell any minerals extracted from the Tailings.

 

As consideration for Jaramillo’s contribution of the right to process the Tailings to the Joint Venture, the Company paid Jaramillo $25,000 when it signed a letter of intent for a proposed acquisition of an interest in the Tailings on December 5, 2011, and another $75,000 when it signed the JV Agreement in the quarter ending March 31, 2012. The Company agreed to pay Jaramillo an additional $200,000 no later than January 26, 2013.

5.Commitments (cont’d)

 

In addition, the Company or the Subsidiary will fund an amount up to $1,000,000 (the “Work Commitment”) for the benefit of the Joint Venture over its first two years, as follows:

 

(a)    $250,000 within the first year of the Joint Venture for the purchase of used heavy equipment, miscellaneous equipment and materials for processing the Tailings, and taxes, permits, and general operating expenses.

 

(b)    $750,000 within the second year of the Joint Venture for the construction of a heap leach system and floatation plant on the Property.

 

The Company may make an additional $250,000 available to the Joint Venture, if additional processing equipment is justified and required to maximize the liberation of precious metals in the Tailings material.

 

As further consideration, the Company is obligated to issue 600,000 shares of the common stock, $0.001 par value, of the Company (“Common Stock”), to Jaramillo as follows:

 

(a)    100,000 shares of Common Stock, which have been issued to Jaramillo.

 

(b)    200,000 shares of Common Stock within 6 months of signing the JV Agreement.

 

(c)    300,000 shares of Common Stock within 12 months of signing the JV Agreement.

 

The shares of Common Stock will be restricted shares and carry current and appropriate legends to that effect. Jaramillo executed a Share Issuance Agreement concurrently with the execution of the JV Agreement, with respect to the shares of Common Stock to be issued under the JV Agreement.

 

Jaramillo will manage the day-to-day affairs associated with processing the Tailings, selling the minerals extracted from the Tailings (“Extracted Minerals”), and other activities of the Joint Venture. Jaramillo will pay all expenses associated with the processing of the Tailings, the sale of any Extracted Minerals from the Tailings, and other obligations of the Joint Venture from the funds received under the Work Commitment and, eventually, from revenues from operations. All net revenues from the sale of any Extracted Minerals or other sources, after deducting expenses, will be distributed and paid monthly, with 65% of the net revenues paid to Amiko Kay and 35% of the net revenues paid to Jaramillo. It is anticipated that the portion to be paid to Amiko Kay will be paid directly to the Company. Jaramillo will provide a monthly accounting of all revenues and expenses associated with the operations of the Joint Venture. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company made payments totaling $160,000 towards the Work Commitment.

 

Title to the Property and the Tailings will remain in Jaramillo’s name. Jaramillo will be responsible for obtaining all permits, approvals and authorizations associated with the processing of the Tailings. He is also responsible for causing the Joint Venture to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to maintain insurance on the Property. Amiko Kay will have access to the Property and the Tailings at all times during the term of the JV Agreement.

 

Amiko Kay and Jaramillo will mutually develop plans and programs to process the Tailings. Jaramillo will prepare a detailed budget setting forth the expenses to be paid under the Work Commitment, which will be approved by Amiko Kay. Finally, Jaramillo will provide quarterly financial reports to Amiko Kay.

 

If either party defaults under the JV Agreement, the defaulting party’s rights to participate in the Joint Venture will be immediately suspended, and the defaulting party will have no right to share in the revenues of the Joint Venture until the breach is cured. If the defaulting party is Jaramillo, then Amiko Kay may perform the duties of Jaramillo under the Agreement. The nondefaulting party may also sue for damages incurred as a result of the event of default.

6.Subsequent events

 

On April 30, 2012, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Fairhills Investment Agreement”) with Fairhills Capital Offshore Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Investor has agreed to purchase the shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of up to $24,000,000. The Fairhills Investment Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.13 to this Quarterly Report.

 

The Investment Agreement provides that the Company may, from time to time during the Open Period (defined below), in its sole discretion, deliver a Put Notice to the Investor which states the dollar amount that the Company intends to sell to the Investor on a date specified in the Put Notice (the “Put”). The Company will be entitled to Put to the Investor (the “Put Amount”) the number of shares of Common Stock equal to two hundred percent (200%) of the average daily volume of the Common Stock for the ten consecutive trading days immediately prior to date of the applicable Put Notice. The purchase price per share to be paid by the Investor for each Put Amount will be calculated at a twenty-four and a half percent (24.5%) discount to the lowest volume weighted average price of the Common Stock reported by Bloomberg, L.P. during the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately prior to the Investor’s receipt of the Put Notice. The Open Period begins on the trading day after a registration statement is declared effective as to the Common Stock to be subject to the Put, and ends thirty-six (36) months after such date, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the Investment Agreement. The Company has reserved 30,000,000 shares of its Common Stock for issuance to the Investor under the Investment Agreement.

 

The Company will use the proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock under the Fairhills Investment Agreement for general corporate and working capital purposes and acquisitions or assets, businesses or operations or for other purposes that the Board of Directors, in its good faith deem to be in the best interest of the Company.

 

In connection with the Fairhills Investment Agreement, the Company and the Investor entered into a Registration Rights Agreement. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file, within twenty-one (21) days of the date of the Agreement, a Registration Statement on Form S-1 covering the resale of the Common Stock subject to the Investment Agreement. The Company intends to initially register 30,000,000 shares of Common Stock for resale. The Company has agreed to use all commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement.

General Overview

 

We are a start-up exploration stage company in the business of gold and mineral exploration, acquisition and development. Our principal office is located at 6565 Americas Parkway NE, Suite 200, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87110. Our telephone number is (505) 563-5828.

 

Agreements

 

La Candelaria Project

 

In May 2011, Metales HBG, S.A. de C.V., a company organized under the laws of Mexico (“Metales”) was formed, with the Company owning 70% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock. Metales owns certain gold and silver mining Concessions covering 800 hectares, or 1,976 acres, near Guachochi, Chihuahua, Mexico. The Concessions are sometimes referred to as the “La Candelaria Project”. See Note 5 to the Financial Statements.

 

In order to fulfill its obligations under the Option Agreement executed in connection with the transfer of the Concessions to Metales, the Company paid Homero Bustillos Gonzalez (“Gonzalez”) the amount of $125,000 in January 2012. The Company, either alone or through Metales, is obligated to fund $150,000 of development costs per year for three years beginning in January 2011, under a Work Plan established for the Concessions (the “Work Plan”). For the three months ending March 31, 2012, the Company made payments totaling $50,000 pursuant to the Work Plan. See “Results of Operations” below.

 

In November 2011, a team of geologists drilled ten drill holes to a depth of approximately 200 meters (650 feet). The Company is waiting for the results of the drilling from the ALS CHEMEX laboratories. The Company has received initial results from a local laboratory in Parral for split core project. The results ranged from 0.09-0.12 grams per ton (gpt) gold and 15-35 gpt silver. The grade assays are not recognized as NI 43-101 standard. If results from the initial drilling stage indicate further drilling is justified, a larger drill unit will be used, capable of reaching depths of 500 meters or more (1,600 feet).

 

The Concessions are without known proven (measured) or probable (indicated) reserves, as defined under SEC Industry Guide 7, and the exploration program described in this Quarterly Report is exploratory in nature. See “No Proven or Probable Reserves” below.

 

Gonzalez retains a 2% Net Smelter Returns Royalty on the Concessions. In addition, the Company is obligated to issue 1,000,000 shares of its Common Stock to Gonzalez upon the discovery of a 1 million-ounce equivalent gold deposit, as defined by industry standards as set forth by a recognized exchange in North America. Metales is obligated to undertake work necessary to bring the existing geological survey on the property up to NI 43-101 standards. Finally, the Company has granted anti-dilution rights to Gonzalez, such that the Company must allow Gonzalez the opportunity to maintain his percentage stock ownership in the Company until the date on which the Company has complied fully with its obligations under the Option Agreement or January 11, 2014, whichever comes first. Gonzalez has waived the exercise of his anti-dilution rights with respect to issuances of Common Stock to North American under the Investment Agreement.

 

If the Company fails to comply with all its obligations under the Option Agreement before January 11, 2014, the Option Agreement will terminate and the Company will be obligated to return the Concessions to Gonzalez.

 

Tailings Project

 

On January 26, 2012, the Company, acting through a newly-formed subsidiary, entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the “JV Agreement”) with Miguel Angel Jaramillo Tapia (“Jaramillo”), a resident of Mexico. Under the JV Agreement, Amiko Kay, S. de R.L. de C.V., a company organized under the laws of Mexico (“Amiko Kay”), and Jaramillo formed a joint venture to process 1,200,000 tons of mine tailings located in the city of Hidalgo Del Parral in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico (the “Tailings”), and, after processing, to use, market and sell any minerals extracted from the Tailings. The Company owns 99% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Amiko Kay.

The Tailings consist of approximately 1.2 million tons of mine tailings from previous mining activity in the Chihuahua area over the last 100 years or more. Mine tailings represent the refuse remaining after ore has been processed. The joint venture between Amiko Kay and Jaramillo (the “Joint Venture”) has been formed to re-process the mine tailings heap to extract minerals that were not extracted during the initial processing, and to market and sell any minerals extracted from the Tailings.

 

As consideration for Jaramillo’s contribution of the right to process the Tailings to the Joint Venture, the Company paid Jaramillo $25,000 when it signed a letter of intent for a proposed acquisition of an interest in the Tailings on December 5, 2011, and another $75,000 when it signed the JV Agreement. The Company agreed to pay Jaramillo an additional $200,000 no later than January 26, 2013.

 

In addition, the Company or Amiko Kay will fund an amount up to $1,000,000 (the “Work Commitment”) for the benefit of the Joint Venture over its first two years, as follows:

 

(a)    $250,000 within the first year of the Joint Venture for the purchase of used heavy equipment, miscellaneous equipment and materials for processing the Tailings, and taxes, permits, and general operating expenses.

 

(b)    $750,000 within the second year of the Joint Venture for the construction of a heap leach system and floatation plant on the Property.

 

The Company may make an additional $250,000 available to the Joint Venture, if additional processing equipment is justified and required to maximize the liberation of precious metals in the Tailings material.

 

As further consideration, the Company is obligated to issue 600,000 shares of the common stock, $0.001 par value, of the Company (“Common Stock”), to Jaramillo as follows:

 

(a)    100,000 shares of Common Stock, which have been issued to Jaramillo.

 

(b)    200,000 shares of Common Stock within 6 months of signing the JV Agreement.

 

(c)    300,000 shares of Common Stock within 12 months of signing the JV Agreement.

 

The shares of Common Stock will be restricted shares and carry current and appropriate legends to that effect.

 

Jaramillo will manage the day-to-day affairs associated with processing the Tailings, selling the minerals extracted from the Tailings (Extracted Minerals”), and other activities of the Joint Venture. Jaramillo will pay all expenses associated with the processing of the Tailings, the sale of any Extracted Minerals from the Tailings, and other obligations of the Joint Venture from the funds received under the Work Commitment and, eventually, from revenues from operations. All net revenues from the sale of any Extracted Minerals or other sources, after deducting expenses, will be distributed and paid monthly, with 65% of the net revenues paid to Amiko Kay and 35% of the net revenues paid to Jaramillo. It is anticipated that the portion to be paid to Amiko Kay will be paid directly to the Company. Jaramillo will provide a monthly accounting of all revenues and expenses associated with the operations of the Joint Venture.

 

Title to the Property and the Tailings will remain in Jaramillo’s name. Jaramillo will be responsible for obtaining all permits, approvals and authorizations associated with the processing of the Tailings. He is also responsible for causing the Joint Venture to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to maintain insurance on the Property. Amiko Kay will have access to the Property and the Tailings at all times during the term of the JV Agreement.

 

Amiko Kay and Jaramillo will mutually develop plans and programs to process the Tailings. Jaramillo will prepare a detailed budget setting forth the expenses to be paid under the Work Commitment, which will be approved by Amiko Kay. Finally, Jaramillo will provide quarterly financial reports to Amiko Kay.

 

If either party defaults under the JV Agreement, the defaulting party’s rights to participate in the Joint Venture will be immediately suspended, and the defaulting party will have no right to share in the revenues of the Joint Venture until the breach is cured. If the defaulting party is Jaramillo, then Amiko Kay may perform the duties of Jaramillo under the Agreement. The nondefaulting party may also sue for damages incurred as a result of the event of default.

 

The JV Agreement will terminate upon completion of processing the Tailings, as determined by Amiko Kay in its sole discretion. If Jaramillo materially breaches the JV Agreement, Amiko Kay may terminate the JV Agreement upon 30 days notice to Jaramillo. Jaramillo has no right to terminate the JV Agreement before the processing of the Tailings is complete.

 

Jaramillo provides independent consulting services to the Company on the La Candelaria project. He acts as Vice President of Exploration on the La Candelaria project (although he is not an executive officer, or an employee, of the Company, Metales or the Subsidiary).

 

14
 

 

The Company is obligated to fund $250,000 for the benefit of the Joint Venture before January 26, 2013, under the Work Commitment established for the Tailings Project. For the three months ending March 31, 2012, the Company made payments totaling $160,000 pursuant to the Work Commitment. See “Results of Operations” below.

 

Approximately 6,000 tons of the Tailings material has been sent to the processing plant in Parral, Mexico. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, this shipment has not been fully processed and the Company has no revenues from Tailings project. In addition, the Parral processing plant has undergone a change of management and has indicated that it will not accept further material for processing. The Company has identified another processing plant in the area that it anticipates will process future shipments of Tailings material.

 

The Company is constructing a basic wash plant and jig circuit on the property on which the Tailings are located. The wash plant’s simple processing circuit will separate the heavy, mineral-rich material from the lighter, worthless material in the Tailings. The Company expects the construction of the wash plant to take between 6 to 8 weeks once construction has begun. The first of two jigs are currently in place on the Tailings Project wash plant, and testing is currently being conducted to confirm the best flow rates to maximize the separation ratios of heavier material. The jig in question is the smaller of two jigs planned for the wash plant's start-up. The existing jig will be used to set up the entire wash plant circuit in preparation for the second, larger jig, which the Company expects will be delivered by June 2012. The cost of the wash plant and jig circuit is expected to be approximately $80,000.

 

The Company has also decided to proceed with the design and development of a Benign nitrogen leaching pile process to be built on the property, which is expected to be capable of processing 1,500 tons of Tailings per day. This relatively new leaching process represents the benefits of not using cyanide and of having minimal environmental impact. In turn, the complexity of the permitting process for the plant's construction will be greatly reduced.

 

No Proven or Probable Reserves

 

We are a start-up, exploration-stage company engaged in the search for gold and related minerals. No proven (measured) or probable (indicated) reserves have been established with respect to the La Candelaria project or the Tailings project, and the proposed program of exploration and development for the La Candelaria project and the Tailings project is exploratory in nature. There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit, or reserve, exists on the property covered by the Concessions or the Tailings project or can be shown to exist until sufficient and appropriate exploration is done, and a comprehensive evaluation of such work concludes that the extraction of such a mineral deposit, if found, can be economically and legally feasible.

 

Fairhills Investment Agreement

 

On April 30, 2012, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Fairhills Investment Agreement”) with Fairhills Capital Offshore Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Investor has agreed to purchase shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of up to $24,000,000. The Fairhills Investment Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.13 to this Quarterly Report.

 

The Investment Agreement provides that the Company may, from time to time during the Open Period (defined below), in its sole discretion, deliver a Put Notice to the Investor which states the dollar amount that the Company intends to sell to the Investor on a date specified in the Put Notice (the “Put”). The Company will be entitled to Put to the Investor (the “Put Amount”) the number of shares of Common Stock equal to two hundred percent (200%) of the average daily volume of the Common Stock for the ten consecutive trading days immediately prior to date of the applicable Put Notice. The purchase price per share to be paid by the Investor for each Put Amount will be calculated at a twenty-four and a half percent (24.5%) discount to the lowest volume weighted average price of the Common Stock reported by Bloomberg, L.P. during the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately prior to the Investor’s receipt of the Put Notice. The Open Period begins on the trading day after a registration statement is declared effective as to the Common Stock to be subject to the Put, and ends thirty-six (36) months after such date, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the Investment Agreement. The Company has reserved 30,000,000 shares of its Common Stock for issuance to the Investor under the Investment Agreement.

 

The Company will use the proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock under the Fairhills Investment Agreement for general corporate and working capital purposes and acquisitions or assets, businesses or operations or for other purposes that the Board of Directors, in its good faith deem to be in the best interest of the Company.

 

In connection with the Fairhills Investment Agreement, the Company and the Investor entered into a Registration Rights Agreement. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file, within twenty-one (21) days of the date of the Agreement, a Registration Statement on Form S-1 covering the resale of the Common Stock subject to the Investment Agreement. The Company intends to initially register 30,000,000 shares of Common Stock for resale. The Company has agreed to use all commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement. The Registration Rights Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.14 to this Quarterly Report.

In addition, we incurred aggregate costs of $356,696 related to our investment in Metales and expenditures under the Work Plan, and our Tailings Project as follows: $50,000 to fund the La Candelaria Work Plan and $160,000 to fund the Tailings Project Work Commitment and additional costs of $146,696 incurred in connection with the La Candelaria Project.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company paid management fees totaling $30,000 to our sole officer and director, and recognized $249,999 in expenses related to the stock grant under Mr. Ferris’ Employment Agreement during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

We had cash of $150,554 as of March 31, 2012.  We have committed to fund $450,000 over three years under the La Candelaria Work Plan, and $1,000,000 over the next two years under the Work Commitment for the Tailings Project.  Because the Company has no revenues from operations, we are dependent upon obtaining additional financing in order to fund our obligations under the Work Plan, and also to fund our obligations under the Tailings Project.  The Company has funded its exploratory program to date through the Investment Agreement and other sources of equity financing. The Company recently signed the Fairhills Investment Agreement, the proceeds of which may be used for general corporate and working capital purposes, acquisitions, and other purposes as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. However, there is no assurance that adequate financing on acceptable terms will continue to be available to us.  During the three months ended March 31, 2012, our sole source of financing was the proceeds of two private placements of Common Stock to North American.  See Part II, Item 2, Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.  The net proceeds from those private placements were used to fund the Company’s operating expenses, and its exploration activities under the Work Plan for the Concessions, and its Work Commitment under the Tailings Project.

 

Going Concern

 

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive exploration activities. For these reasons our auditors stated in their report that they have substantial doubt we will be able to continue as a going concern.

 

Accounting Plan

 

We intend to continue to have our outside accountants assist us in the preparation of our quarterly and annual financial statements and have these financial statements reviewed or audited by our independent auditor. Our outside accountant is expected to charge us approximately $3,000 to prepare our quarterly financial statements and approximately $10,000 to prepare our annual financial statements.

 

Off-balance sheet arrangements

 

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to 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 is material to stockholders.

Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report due to a lack of segregation of duties and an absence of written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting, which are identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 as a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting.
