PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Corporate History; Recent Events

As used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, unless otherwise indicated, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Bullfrog Gold” and “the Company” refer to Bullfrog Gold Corp, a Delaware corporation.

Bullfrog Gold Corp., (“Bullfrog Gold” or, the “Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 23, 2007 as Kopr Resources Corp. On July 19, 2011, Bullfrog Gold's board of directors approved an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company to authorize (i) the change of the name of the Company to "Bullfrog Gold Corp." from "Kopr Resources Corp." (ii) the increase in the authorized capital stock to 250,000,000 shares and (iii) the change in par value of the capital stock to $0.0001 per share. The Company is in the exploration stage of its resource business.

On March 17, 2011 the Board of Directors of Bullfrog Gold unanimously approved the reverse stock split of the Company's issued and outstanding stock as of April 4, 2011 at a ratio of 1 for 5.75. The par value and total number of authorized shares were unaffected by the reverse stock split. All shares and per share amounts in these financial statements and notes thereto have been retrospectively adjusted to all periods presented to give effect to the reverse stock split.

On July 19, 2011, Bullfrog Gold's board of directors authorized a 51.74495487 for one forward split of our outstanding common stock in the form of a dividend, whereby an additional 50.74495487 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, was issued on each one share of common stock outstanding as of July 25, 2011. All shares and per share amounts in these financial statements and notes thereto have been retrospectively adjusted to all periods presented to give effect to the forward stock split.

On September 30, 2011, the Company entered into an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with Standard Gold Corp., a privately held Nevada corporation (“Standard Gold”), and Bullfrog Gold Acquisition Corp., the Company’s newly formed, wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary (“Acquisition Sub”), pursuant to which Standard Gold merged with and into Acquisition Sub, with Standard Gold as the surviving entity, causing Standard Gold to become the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Merger”). Following the closing of the Merger the Company conducted a private placement (the “2011 Private Placement”) pursuant to which it sold units at a per unit price of $0.40 to thirty-five accredited investors with each unit consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock (except that three investors elected to receive, in lieu of common stock, one share of Series A Preferred Stock), and one warrant to purchase 50% of the number of shares purchased at an exercise price of $0.60 per share. Immediately following the closing of the Merger, under an Agreement of Conveyance, Transfer and Assignment of Assets and Assumption of Obligations, the Company transferred substantially all of its pre-exchange assets and liabilities to a wholly-owned subsidiary, Kopr Resources Holdings, Inc. (“SplitCo”) and thereafter, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement, transferred all of the outstanding capital stock of SplitCo to our former officer and director in exchange for the cancellation of shares of our common stock she owned. See Note 2 in the Notes to Financial Statements for additional details concerning the reverse merger transaction.

On November 2, 2012 the Board of Directors unilaterally amended the exercise price of the Warrants as part of the 2011 Private Placement from $0.60 to $0.40.

On November 19, 2012, we sold an aggregate of 4,300,000 units with gross proceeds to the Company of $1,075,000 to certain accredited investors pursuant to a subscription agreement.

On December 10, 2012 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Facility Agreement evidencing a secured loan (the “Facility”) with RMB Australia Holdings Limited (“RMB”), as the lender, in the amount of $4.2 million. The loan proceeds from the Facility will be used to fund an agreed work program relating to the Newsboy gold project located in Arizona and for agreed general corporate purposes. Standard Gold Corp., a Nevada Corporation (“Standard Gold”) and the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary is the borrower under the Facility and the Company is the guarantor of Standard Gold’s obligations under the Facility. Standard Gold will pay an arrangement fee of 7% of the Facility amount due upon the first draw down of the Facility. The Facility will be available until March 31, 2014 with the final repayment date due 24 months after the Closing Date. Standard Gold has the option to prepay without penalty any portion of the Facility at any time subject to 30 day notice, any broken period costs and minimum prepayment amounts of $500,000. The Facility bears interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 7% with interest payable quarterly in cash. In connection with the Facility, the Company issued 7,000,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock for $0.35 per share to be exercisable for 36 months after the Closing Date, with the proceeds from the exercise of the warrants to be used to repay the Facility.

On December 17, 2012, we sold an aggregate of 2,000,000 units with gross proceeds to the Company of $500,000 to certain accredited investors pursuant to a subscription agreement.

On December 21, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a stock compensation distribution to David Beling, the Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, and Tyler Minnick, the Company’s Vice President of Administration and Finance in lieu of a cash year-end bonus and performance bonus. The Company awarded a total of 400,000 shares of its restricted common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common stock”) to Mr. Beling and awarded 100,000 shares of its restricted Common Stock to Mr. Minnick. The restricted stock awards were made at $0.37 per share determined by the Company’s board of directors based on the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board on December 21, 2012. The restricted stock awards of Common Stock are 100% percent vested as of the grant date. There are no plans to register the shares of restricted stock and therefore sales of such shares will be subject to transfer restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

On February 4, 2013, we sold an aggregate of 1,800,060 units with gross proceeds to the Company of $450,015 to five accredited investors pursuant to a subscription agreement.

We are an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of properties that may contain gold mineralization in the United States. Our target properties are those that have been the subject of historical exploration. We have acquired exploration permits on state lands and Federal patented and unpatented mining claims in the states of Arizona and Nevada for the purpose of exploration and potential development of gold on a total of approximately 6,860 acres. We plan to review opportunities and acquire additional mineral properties with current or historic precious and base metal mineralization with meaningful exploration potential. The Company has acquired three projects, as described below.

Newsboy Project

The Newsboy Project comprises 4,958 acres of state, federal and patented lands located 45 miles northwest of Phoenix, Arizona. In June 2012 the Company determined that one of the state permits was not beneficial to the project and did not renew one of the four state permits therefore reducing the land holdings from 5,240 to 4,958 acres and three state permits (in the normal course of business we have staked over 100 additional mining claims for the Newsboy Project, but these have not yet been filed with the US BLM or Maricopa County. As a result, the official ownership of these claims has not been recorded. After recordation, these additional claims will be owned by the Company and increase our Newsboy Project to approximately 7,400 acres). The closest towns, Wickenburg and Morristown, are located 10 miles and 3 miles respectively from the site and provide excellent infrastructure. Approximately 1.2 million ounces of gold and 1 million ounces of silver have been produced within 25 miles of the Newsboy Project from several historic mines, including the Vulture, Congress, Octave and Yarnell.

In September 2011, the Company obtained the working right and option to earn a 100% interest in and to the Newsboy Project. Terms of this Agreement include the payment of $3,425,000 during the five-year period ending January 2017 plus a 2% net smelter royalty.

In addition to the main mineral zone drilled by predecessors, the Newsboy Project has nine relatively shallow priority drill targets and other secondary targets below existing drill depths. The Company and its independent consultants have developed a detailed exploration drilling program to confirm and expand mineralized zones and collect additional environmental and technical data. The Company has contracted an independent certified professional geologist, Clive Bailey, to prepare the permits and plans for the drill programs. Mr. Bailey also procures the drilling, assaying and surveying firms to complete the work and manages all the field activities on the project. All deliverables to the Company by Mr. Bailey from the period September 2011 to date include proposed and actual drill hole locations, geology logs of drill cuttings, plan maps and cross-sections and data received from drillers, assayers and surveyors. Mr. Bailey was engaged as an independent contractor by the President of the Company, who has known Mr. Bailey for 30 years. We paid Mr. Bailey approximately $130,000 for the period October 1, 2011 to September 30, 2012. We have not requested Mr. Bailey to prepare and/or provide the Company with any reports as a certified professional geologist; however he does prepare the permits and plans for the drilling programs.

The following is a description of the first two phases of drilling the Company completed in 2012 at the Newsboy Project:

PHASE 1:

One vertical hole drilled in the basement schist rocks discovered a vein that contained 50 feet (15.2 meters) of 0.084 gold ounces per short ton (opt) (2.9 grams/metric tonne) and 0.18 silver opt (6.1 g/mt), including 5 feet (1.5 m) of 0.39 gold opt (13.5 g/mt) and 0.39 silver opt (13.5 g/mt).

Five holes drilled within a 1992 proposed open pit mine area averaged 0.048 gold opt (1.6 g/mt), 1.2 silver opt (41.1 g/mt) and 64 feet in thickness (19.5 m). These results are comparable and confirmatory of adjacent old drill data.

Sixteen additional holes were drilled in the large area surrounding the proposed open pit limits. Nine of these holes contained mineralization above the cutoff grade of 0.015 gold opt (0.5 g/mt). A total of 24 drill holes were drilled in Phase 1.

PHASE 2:

During May and June 2012 the Company completed 24 additional holes as the second phase drilling program. Below are highlights from the second phase drilling program.

Two holes show the high grade mineralization discovered in phase 1 to be tabular with an apparent dip of 15°. As a result, the thickness and tonnage in this area may be an order of magnitude greater than that of a narrow, near vertical vein as initially thought.

The pit limit will be expanded accordingly with 20% higher grade gold than the 0.044 gold opt estimated in the 1992 pit.

The open area immediately east of these three holes is approximately 800 feet by 1,200 feet and will be drilled to expand this new mineralization and establish its true thickness.

The Company intends to continue drilling the Newsboy Project and surrounding area during 2013. Phase 3 drilling was completed in early March 2013, with 26 drill holes, the drill data is currently being analyzed. The completion of Phase 3 drilling brings the total drill holes completed by the Company to 74. The Company is planning to update the historic feasibility study and environmental permit applications. Phase 4 is expected to begin in April with approximately 24 drill holes and phase 5 is expected to begin in December with approximately 24 drill holes.

In June 2012 the Company purchased a substantial historic data base from Moneta Porcupine Mines, who owned the property from 1993 through 1995. The company also intends to stake during early 2013 several additional mining claims in and around its current land holdings.

On December 11, 2012 the Company entered a lease agreement with Vulture View Mine, LLC (“Vulture View”) to lease two patents of approximately 38 acres. As a result the Company’s land position as of January 1, 2013 totals 4,958 acres (in the normal course of business we have staked over 100 additional mining claims for the Newsboy Project, but these have not yet been filed with the US BLM or Maricopa County. As a result, the official ownership of these claims has not been recorded. After recordation, these additional claims will be owned by the Company and increase our Newsboy Project to approximately 7,400 acres). The Company paid $20,000 on December 11, 2012 for the first two lease years and agreed to a work commitment of $100,000 to explore the patents and surrounding area during the first lease year. The Company will pay Vulture View $10,000 on the second anniversary and $10,000 each year thereafter until termination of the lease.

In addition, the Company shall pay Vulture View net smelter production royalties as set forth in the table below. Notwithstanding the forgoing, at the Company’s sole and absolute discretion prior to the commencement of commercial production from the two patents, the Company shall have the right at any time to purchase or buy-down up to one half of any, each or all of the three royalty components from Vulture View by making payments of $100,000.00 per 0.5% of base net smelter return royalties for Gold, Silver and/or Other Products to Vulture View, which shall be exercised only in one-half increments of percentage points. In the event that the Company exercises the right to purchase or buy-down the Royalty, Vulture View shall deliver to the Company any documents as the Company may require, evidencing such reduction of Vulture View’s Royalty interest. For clarification, the parties understand that any royalty payments made by the Company to Vulture View prior to the election to purchase the Royalty may not be credited toward the buy-down price.

Bullfrog Project

The Bullfrog Gold Project lies approximately 3 miles northwest of the town of Beatty and 116 miles northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada. Standard Gold acquired a 100% right, title and interest in and to 1,650 acres of mineral claims and patents known as the “Bullfrog Project” subject to a 3% net smelter royalty. The Company proposes to drill 22 holes during 2013 to test for potential mineralization that may extend from the Montgomery-Shoshone open pit mine onto the Company’s adjacent property. The Company has engaged Mr. Chip Allender, certified professional geologist to prepare drilling plans and permit applications for the Bullfrog Project. Mr. Allender was engaged as an independent contractor by the President of the Company, who has known Mr. Allender for four years. We paid Mr. Allender approximately $30,000 for the period October 1, 2011 to September 30, 2012. We have not requested Mr. Allender to prepare and/or provide the Company with any reports as a certified professional geologist; however he does prepare the permits and plans for the drilling programs.

For further details and description of the Bullfrog Project, please see Item 2, Properties, herein.

Klondike Project

The Company acquired the option to purchase the Klondike Project in Nevada in June 2012. The Klondike Project is located in the Alpha Mining District about 40 miles north of Eureka, Nevada. The initial property included 64 unpatented mining claims, to which Bullfrog recently staked an additional 168claims for a total of 4,640 acres

The Klondike Project covers mineralized structures 5 miles long and 1.5 miles wide along the west flank of the Sulfur Springs mountain range. The rocks within this corridor are intensely broken by numerous periods of faulting, thereby providing a favorable environment for several sequences of hydrothermal solutions to form mineral deposits. These host rocks are mostly Devonian age sediments typical of most Carlin gold deposits.

At least two styles of mineral deposits exist on the Company’s property:

The oldest is a silver-rich, lead-zinc event that appears to be related to a molybdenum porphyry system that is not exposed but indicated by geochemistry and alteration. In this regard, the Klondike claims lie 10 miles north of the Mt. Hope molybdenum mine which is currently under development as one of the world’s largest molybdenum deposits. The Mt. Hope deposit has a halo of silver-zinc mineralization that is typically more than a thousand feet thick and above several thousand feet of molybdenum mineralization. A silver-rich copper event may also be related to this style of mineralization.

A later stage Carlin-style gold-arsenic-barite mineralizing event over-printed the earlier silver-zinc-molybdenum system. This event has wide-spread anomalous gold values with arsenic and associated calcite veining. Barite may be related to all events. A new gold discovery is currently being drilled by other companies 10 miles west of the Klondike and may be the continuation of the massive Cortez gold trend.

A total of 156 surface rock chip samples of the Klondike host rocks averaged 32 ppm silver, 1.3 % zinc, 0.8 % lead, 0.16 % copper and anomalous gold. These contents compare well with major silver-zinc deposits such as San Cristobal in Bolivia, Penasquito in Mexico and the new discovery of Cordero in Mexico, each of which may contain more than 100 million tonnes of ore. See Note 6 in the Notes to Financial Statements for additional details concerning the purchase transaction.

The Company also used Mr. Allender to evaluate acquisition of the Klondike Project and for developing its permit applications and drilling plans.

For further details and description of the Klondike Project, please see Item 2, Properties, herein.

Competition

We do not compete directly with anyone for the exploration or removal of minerals from our property as we hold all interest and rights to the claims. Readily available commodities markets exist in the U.S. and around the world for the sale of minerals. Therefore, we will likely be able to sell minerals that we are able to recover. We will be subject to competition and unforeseen limited sources of supplies in the industry in the event spot shortages arise for supplies such as explosives or large equipment tires, and certain equipment such as bulldozers and excavators and services, such as contract drilling that we will need to conduct exploration. If we are unsuccessful in securing the products, equipment and services we need, we may have to suspend our exploration plans until we are able to secure them.

Compliance with Government Regulation

We will be required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of governmental authorities and agencies applicable to the exploration of minerals in the United States generally. We will also be subject to the regulations of the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) and Arizona with respect to mining claims on Federal lands and three exploration permits on Arizona state lands at the Newsboy Project.

We are required to pay annual maintenance fees to the BLM to keep our Federal lode and placer mining claims in good standing. The maintenance period begins at noon on September 1st through the following September 1st and payments are due by the first day of the maintenance period. The annual fee is $140 per lode claim and for each 20 acre portion of a placer claim. The Arizona state exploration permits currently are $13,440 per year.

Future exploration drilling on any of our properties that consist of BLM land will require us to either file a Notice of Intent or a Plan of Operations with the BLM, depending upon the amount of new surface disturbance that is planned. A Notice of Intent is required for planned surface activities that anticipate less than 5.0 acres of surface disturbance, and usually can be obtained within a 30 to 60-day time period. A Plan of Operations will be required if there is greater than 5.0 acres of new surface disturbance involved with the planned exploration work. A Plan of Operations can take several months to be approved, depending on the nature of the intended work, the level of reclamation bonding required, the need for archeological surveys, and other factors as may be determined by the BLM.

Research and Development

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the period from inception until December 31, 2010, we have had no expense related to research and development.

Corporate Office

Our principal executive office is 897 Quail Run Drive, Grand Junction, CO 81505. Our main telephone number is (970) 628-1670. Annual Reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports are available free of charge through the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website at www.sec.gov as soon as reasonably practicable after those reports are electronically filed with or furnished to the SEC.

Employees

As of the date of this filing, we employ 2 full-time employees, including our Chief Executive Officer. We have contracts with various independent contractors and consultants to fulfill additional needs, including investor relations, exploration, development, permitting, and other administrative functions, and may staff further with employees as we expand activities and bring new projects on line.

Legal Proceedings

We are not involved in any pending legal proceeding or litigations and, to the best of our knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating any proceeding to which we are a party or to which any of our properties is subject, which would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operation may be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment.

Risks Relating to Our Business

We are a new company with a short operating history and have only lost money.

Standard Gold Corp., our exploration and operating subsidiary, was formed in January 2010. Our operating history consists of starting our preliminary exploration activities. We have no income-producing activities from mining or exploration. We have already lost money because of the expenses we have incurred in acquiring the rights to explore our properties and starting our preliminary exploration activities. Exploring for gold and other minerals or resources is an inherently speculative activity. There is a strong possibility that we will not find any commercially exploitable gold or other deposits on our properties. Because we are an exploration company, we may never achieve any meaningful revenue.

Since we have a limited operating history, it is difficult for potential investors to evaluate our business.

Our limited operating history makes it difficult for potential investors to evaluate our business or prospective operations. Since our formation, we have not generated any revenues. As an early stage company, we are subject to all the risks inherent in the initial organization, financing, expenditures, complications and delays inherent in a new business. Investors should evaluate an investment in us in light of the uncertainties encountered by developing companies in a competitive environment. Our business is dependent upon the implementation of our business plan. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful or that we will ultimately be able to attain profitability.

Exploring for gold is an inherently speculative business.

Natural resource exploration, and exploring for gold in particular, is a business that by its nature is very speculative. There is a strong possibility that we will not discover gold or any other resources which can be mined or extracted at a profit. Even if we do discover gold or other deposits, the deposit may not be of the quality or size necessary for us or a potential purchaser of the property to make a profit from actually mining it. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. Unusual or unexpected geological formations, geological formation pressures, fires, power outages, labor disruptions, flooding, explosions, cave-ins, landslides and the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labor are just some of the many risks involved in mineral exploration programs and the subsequent development of gold deposits.

We will need to obtain additional financing to fund our Bullfrog and Klondike exploration programs.

We do not have sufficient capital to fund our exploration programs for the Bullfrog Project and Klondike Project as it is currently planned or to fund the acquisition and exploration of new properties. We will require additional funding to continue our planned exploration programs and cover the costs of being a public company. We do not have any sources of funding for the Bullfrog Project and the Klondike Project. We may be unable to secure additional financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Our inability to raise additional funds on a timely basis could prevent us from achieving our business objectives and could have a negative impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and the value of our securities. If we raise additional funds by issuing additional equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership of existing stockholders may be diluted and the securities that we may issue in the future may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the current holders of our common stock. Such securities may also be issued at a discount to the market price of our common stock, resulting in possible further dilution to the book value per share of common stock. If we raise additional funds by issuing debt, we could be subject to debt covenants that could place limitations on our operations and financial flexibility.

As discussed in later detail (Liquidity and Capital Resources), the Company has obtained financing for the Newsboy Project and certain corporate expenses in the form of a debt facility of $4,200,000 available until March 31, 2014 with the full amount of the loan to be repaid on or before December 10, 2014.

The global financial crisis may have an impact on our business and financial condition in ways that we currently cannot predict.

The continued credit crisis and related turmoil in the global financial system may have an impact on our business and financial position. The high costs of fuel and other consumables may negatively impact costs of our operations. In addition, the financial crisis may limit our ability to raise capital through credit and equity markets. As discussed further below, the prices of the metals that we may produce are affected by a number of factors, and it is unknown how these factors will be impacted by a continuation of the financial crisis.

We do not know if our properties contain any gold or other minerals that can be mined at a profit.

The properties on which we have the right to explore for gold are not known to have any deposits of gold which can be mined at a profit (as to which there can be no assurance). Whether a gold deposit can be mined at a profit depends upon many factors. Some but not all of these factors include: the particular attributes of the deposit, such as size, grade and proximity to infrastructure; operating costs and capital expenditures required to start mining a deposit; the availability and cost of financing; the price of gold, which is highly volatile and cyclical; and government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land use, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection.

We are a junior gold exploration company with no mining operations and we may never have any mining operations in the future.

Our business is exploring for gold and other minerals. In the event that we discover commercially exploitable gold or other deposits, we will not be able to make any money from them unless the gold or other minerals are actually mined or we sell all or a part of our interest. Accordingly, we will need to find some other entity to mine our properties on our behalf, mine them ourselves or sell our rights to mine to third parties. Mining operations in the United States are subject to many different federal, state and local laws and regulations, including stringent environmental, health and safety laws. In the event we assume any operational responsibility for mining our properties, it is possible that we will be unable to comply with current or future laws and regulations, which can change at any time. It is possible that changes to these laws will be adverse to any potential mining operations. Moreover, compliance with such laws may cause substantial delays and require capital outlays in excess of those anticipated, adversely affecting any potential mining operations. Our future mining operations, if any, may also be subject to liability for pollution or other environmental damage. It is possible that we will choose to not be insured against this risk because of high insurance costs or other reasons.

Our business is subject to extensive environmental regulations which may make exploring for or mining prohibitively expensive, and which may change at any time.

All of our operations are subject to extensive environmental regulations which can make exploration expensive or prohibit it altogether. We may be subject to potential liabilities associated with the pollution of the environment and the disposal of waste products that may occur as the result of exploring and other related activities on our properties. We may have to pay to remedy environmental pollution, which may reduce the amount of money that we have available to use for exploration. This may adversely affect our financial position, which may cause you to lose your investment. If we are unable to fully remedy an environmental problem, we might be required to suspend operations or to enter into interim compliance measures pending the completion of the required remedy. If a decision is made to mine our properties and we retain any operational responsibility for doing so, our potential exposure for remediation may be significant, and this may have a material adverse effect upon our business and financial position. We have not purchased insurance for potential environmental risks (including potential liability for pollution or other hazards associated with the disposal of waste products from our exploration activities). However, if we mine one or more of our properties and retain operational responsibility for mining, then such insurance may not be available to us on reasonable terms or at a reasonable price. All of our exploration and, if warranted, development activities may be subject to regulation under one or more local, state and federal environmental impact analyses and public review processes. It is possible that future changes in applicable laws, regulations and permits or changes in their enforcement or regulatory interpretation could have significant impact on some portion of our business, which may require our business to be economically re-evaluated from time to time. These risks include, but are not limited to, the risk that regulatory authorities may increase bonding requirements beyond our financial capability. Inasmuch as posting of bonding in accordance with regulatory determinations is a condition to the right to operate under all material operating permits, increases in bonding requirements could prevent operations even if we are in full compliance with all substantive environmental laws.

We may be denied the government licenses and permits which we need to explore on our properties. In the event that we discover commercially exploitable deposits, we may be denied the additional government licenses and permits which we will need to mine our properties.

Exploration activities usually require the granting of permits from various governmental agencies. For example, exploration drilling on unpatented mineral claims requires a permit to be obtained from the United States Bureau of Land Management, which may take several months or longer to grant the requested permit. Depending on the size, location and scope of the exploration program, additional permits may also be required before exploration activities can be undertaken. Prehistoric or Indian grave yards, threatened or endangered species, archeological sites or the possibility thereof, difficult access, excessive dust and important nearby water resources may all result in the need for additional permits before exploration activities can commence. As with all permitting processes, there is the risk that unexpected delays and excessive costs may be experienced in obtaining required permits. The needed permits may not be granted at all. Delays in or our inability to obtain necessary permits will result in unanticipated costs, which may result in serious adverse effects upon our business.

The values of our properties are subject to volatility in the price of gold and any other deposits we may seek or locate.

Our ability to obtain additional and continuing funding, and our profitability in the unlikely event we ever commence mining operations or sell our rights to mine, will be significantly affected by changes in the market price of gold. Gold prices fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors, all of which are beyond our control. Some of these factors include the sale or purchase of gold by central banks and financial institutions; interest rates; currency exchange rates; inflation or deflation; fluctuation in the value of the United States dollar and other currencies; speculation; global and regional supply and demand, including investment, industrial and jewelry demand; and the political and economic conditions of major gold or other mineral producing countries throughout the world, such as Russia and South Africa. The price of gold or other minerals have fluctuated widely in recent years, and a decline in the price of gold could cause a significant decrease in the value of our properties, limit our ability to raise money, and render continued exploration and development of our properties impracticable. If that happens, then we could lose our rights to our properties and be compelled to sell some or all of these rights. Additionally, the future development of our properties beyond the exploration stage is heavily dependent upon the level of gold prices remaining sufficiently high to make the development of our properties economically viable. You may lose your investment if the price of gold decreases. The greater the decrease in the price of gold, the more likely it is that you will lose money.

Our property titles may be challenged. We are not insured against any challenges, impairments or defects to our mineral claims or property titles. We have not fully verified title to our properties.

Our properties in Arizona and Nevada are comprised of two patented parcels, three State exploration permits, twelve unpatented placer claims, and four hundred and one unpatented lode claims. These unpatented claims were created and maintained in accordance with the federal General Mining Law of 1872. Unpatented claims are unique U.S. property interests and are generally considered to be subject to greater title risk than other real property interests because the validity of unpatented claims is often uncertain. This uncertainty arises, in part, out of the complex federal and state laws and regulations under the General Mining Law. Although the annual payments and filings for these claims, permits and patents have been maintained, we have conducted limited title search on our Newsboy and Bullfrog project properties. The uncertainty resulting from not having comprehensive title searches on the properties leaves us exposed to potential title suits. Defending any challenges to our property titles may be costly, and may divert funds that could otherwise be used for exploration activities and other purposes. In addition, unpatented claims are always subject to possible challenges by third parties or contests by the federal government, which, if successful, may prevent us from exploiting our discovery of commercially extractable gold. Challenges to our title may increase our costs of operation or limit our ability to explore on certain portions of our properties. We are not insured against challenges, impairments or defects to our property titles, nor do we intend to carry extensive title insurance in the future. Potential conflicts to our mineral claims are discussed in detail elsewhere herein.

Possible amendments to the General Mining Law could make it more difficult or impossible for us to execute our business plan.

The U.S. Congress has considered proposals to amend the General Mining Law of 1872 that would have, among other things, permanently banned the sale of public land for mining. The proposed amendment would have expanded the environmental regulations to which we are subject and would have given Indian tribes the ability to hinder or prohibit mining operations near tribal lands. The proposed amendment would also have imposed a royalty of 8% of gross revenue on new mining operations located on federal public land, which would have applied to substantial portions of our properties. The proposed amendment would have made it more expensive or perhaps too expensive to recover any otherwise commercially exploitable gold deposits which we may find on our properties. While at this time the proposed amendment is no longer pending, this or similar changes to the law in the future could have a significant impact on our business model.

Market forces or unforeseen developments may prevent us from obtaining the supplies and equipment necessary to explore for gold and other resources.

Gold exploration, and resource exploration in general, has demands for contractors and unforeseen shortages of supplies and/or equipment could result in the disruption of our planned exploration activities. Current demand for exploration drilling services, equipment and supplies is robust and could result in suitable equipment and skilled manpower being unavailable at scheduled times for our exploration program. Fuel prices are extremely volatile as well. We will attempt to locate suitable equipment, materials, manpower and fuel if sufficient funds are available. If we cannot find the equipment and supplies needed for our various exploration programs, we may have to suspend some or all of them until equipment, supplies, funds and/or skilled manpower become available. Any such disruption in our activities may adversely affect our exploration activities and financial condition.

We may not be able to maintain the infrastructure necessary to conduct exploration activities.

Our exploration activities depend upon adequate infrastructure. Reliable roads, bridges, power sources and water supply are important factors which affect capital and operating costs. Unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, sabotage, government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of such infrastructure could adversely affect our exploration activities and financial condition.

Our exploration activities may be adversely affected by the local climates, which could prevent or impair us from exploring our properties year round.

The local climates in Arizona and Nevada may impair or prevent us from conducting exploration activities on our properties year round. Because of their rural locations and current limited infrastructure on site, our properties are generally impassible for several days per year as a result of infrequent but significant rain or snow events. The main access coming from the east to the Newsboy project in Arizona requires crossing a normally dry river bed. However, this access route may be impaired for approximately six days per year, mainly during the monsoon rain season from July through early September. Notwithstanding, the property may be accessed through another, longer route route coming from the west. The elevation of the Newsboy project is less than 2,000 feet above mean sea level (amsl). The Bullfrog property has occasional snow that can impair exploration activities for a few days per year but would not likely interfere with possible production operations. The elevation of the Bullfrog project ranges from 3,600 to 4,300 feet amsl. The Klondike property ranges in elevation from 6,400 to 7000 feet amsl. Limited snowfall from November through February may impair exploration activities for a few days per year, but is not expected to significantly impact possible production operations. Earthquakes, heavy rains, snowstorms, and floods could result in serious damage to or the destruction of facilities, equipment or means of access to our properties, or may otherwise prevent us from conducting exploration activities on our properties.

We do not carry any property or casualty insurance at the Bullfrog of Klondike Projects, however we intend to carry such insurance in the future.

Our business is subject to a number of risks and hazards generally, including but not limited to adverse environmental conditions, industrial accidents, 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. Such occurrences could result in damage to our properties, equipment, infrastructure, personal injury or death, environmental damage, delays, monetary losses and possible legal liability. You could lose all or part of your investment if any such catastrophic event occurs. We do not carry any property or casualty insurance at this time at the Bullfrog or Klondike Projects, however we intend to carry this type of insurance in the future (we carry all insurances that we are required to by law, such as motor vehicle and workers compensation plus other coverage that may be in the best interest of the Company). Even if we do obtain insurance, it may not cover all of the risks associated with our operations. Insurance against risks such as environmental pollution or other hazards as a result of exploration and operations are often not available to us or to other companies in our business on acceptable terms. Should any events against which we are not insured actually occur, we may become subject to substantial losses, costs and liabilities which will adversely affect our financial condition.

Risks Relating to our Organization and our Common Stock

Exercise of options and warrants and/or conversion of preferred stock will dilute your percentage of ownership.

As of March 11, 2013 we have authorized for issuance options to purchase 4,060,000 shares of our common stock and may issue options to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,500,000 shares of common stock under our 2011 Equity Incentive Plan. We also have warrants to purchase 20,972,285 shares of our common stock outstanding and 687,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 2,004,600 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding both of which are convertible into shares of common stock on a one for one basis. In the future, we may grant additional stock options, warrants and convertible securities. The exercise or conversion of stock options, warrants or convertible securities will dilute the percentage ownership of our other stockholders. The dilutive effect of the exercise or conversion of these securities may adversely affect our ability to obtain additional capital. The holders of these securities may be expected to exercise or convert them when we would be able to obtain additional equity capital on terms more favorable than these securities.

Difficulties we may encounter managing our growth could adversely affect our results of operations.

As our business needs expand, we may need to hire a significant number of employees. This expansion may place a significant strain on our managerial and financial resources. To manage the potential growth of our operations and personnel, we will be required to:

	·	improve existing, and implement new, operational, financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures;
	·	install enhanced management information systems; and
	·	train, motivate and manage our employees.

We may not be able to install adequate management information and control systems in an efficient and timely manner, and our current or planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support our future operations. If we are unable to manage growth effectively, our business would be seriously harmed.

If we lose key personnel or are unable to attract and retain additional qualified personnel we may not be able to successfully manage our business and achieve our objectives.

We believe our future success will depend upon our ability to retain our key management, including Mr. Beling, our Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Secretary and director, and Mr. Lindsay, the Chairman of our Board of Directors. We may not be successful in attracting, assimilating and retaining our employees in the future.

As a result of the reverse merger on September 30, 2011, Standard Gold became a subsidiary of ours and since we are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, this can be expensive and may divert resources from other projects, thus impairing its ability to grow.

As a result of the reverse merger consummated on September 30, 2011, Standard Gold became a subsidiary of ours and, accordingly, is subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and other federal securities laws, including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including reporting of the reverse merger) and furnishing audited reports to stockholders will cause our expenses to be higher than they would have been if Standard Gold had remained privately held and did not consummate the merger.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and new rules subsequently implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. As a public company, these new rules and regulations have increased our compliance costs in 2012 and we expect such increased costs to continue beyond 2012 and to make certain activities more time consuming and costly. As a public company, we also expect that these new rules and regulations may make it more difficult and expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance in the future and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers.

Our stock price may be volatile.

The stock market in general has experienced volatility that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of any specific public company. The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:

	·	changes in our industry;
	·	competitive pricing pressures;
	·	our ability to obtain working capital financing;
	·	additions or departures of key personnel;
	·	limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons who sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negative pricing pressure on the market prices of our common stock;
	·	sales of our common stock;
	·	our ability to execute our business plan;
	·	operating results that fall below expectations;

	·	loss of any strategic relationship;
	·	regulatory developments;
	·	economic and other external factors; and
	·	period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results.

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We have never paid nor do we expect in the near future to pay dividends.

We have never paid cash dividends on our capital stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. Investors should not rely on an investment in our Company if they require income generated from dividends paid on our capital stock. Any income derived from our common stock would only come from rise in the market price of our common stock, which is uncertain and unpredictable.

There is currently no liquid trading market for our common stock and we cannot ensure that one will ever develop or be sustained.

To date there has been no liquid trading market for our common stock. We cannot predict how liquid the market for our common stock might become. Since August 11, 2011, our common stock has been quoted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol BFGC.OB, and, as soon as is practicable, we intend to apply for listing of our common stock on either the NYSE Amex, The Nasdaq Capital Market or other national securities exchange, assuming that we can satisfy the initial listing standards for such exchange. We currently do not satisfy the initial listing standards, and cannot ensure that we will be able to satisfy such listing standards or that our common stock will be accepted for listing on any such exchange. Should we fail to satisfy the initial listing standards of such exchanges, or our common stock is otherwise rejected for listing and remain listed on the OTC Bulletin Board or suspended from the OTC Bulletin Board, the trading price of our common stock could suffer and the trading market for our common stock may be less liquid and our common stock price may be subject to increased volatility. Furthermore, for companies whose securities are traded in the OTC Bulletin Board, it is more difficult (1) to obtain accurate quotations, (2) to obtain coverage for significant news events because major wire services generally do not publish press releases about such companies, and (3) to obtain needed capital.

Our common stock is subject to the “Penny Stock” rules of the SEC, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.

Our common stock is considered a “Penny Stock”. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors". The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, has adopted sales practice requirements which may also limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock. In addition to the "penny stock" rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit investors’ ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

Our common stock may be affected by limited trading volume and price fluctuation which could adversely impact the value of our common stock.

There has been limited trading in our common stock and there can be no assurance that an active trading market in our common stock will either develop or be maintained. Our common stock has experienced, and is likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors such as quarterly fluctuations in our financial results and changes in the overall economy or the condition of the financial markets could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. These fluctuations may also cause short sellers to periodically enter the market in the belief that we will have poor results in the future. We cannot predict the actions of market participants and, therefore, can offer no assurances that the market for our common stock will be stable or appreciate over time.

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market upon the expiration of any statutory holding period, under Rule 144, or issued upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants or upon the conversion of our Series A or Series B Preferred Stock, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang” and in anticipation of which the market price of our common stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.

We use paid-for media coverage as part of our investor relations activities.

The Company has entered into third party agreements for activities that we refer to as investor awareness activities. These activities are intended to familiarize targeted audiences with our business. These activities may result in attracting interest in our business from writers, bloggers, analysts, newsletters and others. We are not responsible and we may not be aware of the content or timing of materials produced by such persons. We may seek to suspend these activities from time to time when we are engaged in capital raising transactions. Because third parties may continue to disseminate information about us we may be unable to persuade third parties to discontinue these activities.

Our investor relations activities includes paid-for media coverage, personal, video and telephone conferences and non-deal road shows in which our executives meet with prospective investors to discuss the Company’s business plans and methods and our management delivers a presentation about our business that is publicly available on our website. In addition, to our investor relations activities, we also, in the ordinary course of our business, will attend trade shows and speak at industry conferences and may meet with investors and prospective investors. We do not consider these activities to be part of our investor relations activities.

The Company will sometimes provide compensation to investor relations firms and pay for newsletters, websites, mailings and email campaigns that are produced for us by third parties. The Company seeks to direct the third parties to publicly-available information concerning the Company. The Company does not intend to review or approve the content of such reports or materials produced based upon their own industry, market or company research or methods. Investor relations firms should generally disclose when they are compensated for their efforts, but whether such disclosure is made or complete is not under our control nor is the content of such news stories. In addition, investors in the Company may, from time to time, also take steps to encourage investor awareness through similar activities that may be undertaken at the expense of the investors. Investor relations activities may also be suspended or discontinued which may impact the trading market of our common stock. Since we do not control the content and opinions expressed by third parties in connection with our paid-for media coverage, some of the information written or expressed by such third parties about our Company may contain inaccurate information about our Company.

The Company has inquired from its investor relations vendors, and believes that, investor relations activities were suspended in September 2012 prior to the Company's recently consummated private placements. The Company, however, continued to attend industry conferences in the ordinary course of business in September 2012 through November 2012 after such suspension, which has been and continues to be the Company’s practice.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

Not applicable.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Our principal executive office occupies approximately 230 square feet in Grand Junction, CO for a monthly payment of $600 per month. Total rent payments for 2012 at this location was $7,200 and are anticipated to be $7,200 in 2013. We believe that our facilities are adequate to meet our needs for the foreseeable future.

We are engaged in the acquisition and exploration of properties that may contain gold mineralization in the United States. Our target properties are those that have been the subject of historical exploration. We have acquired State Exploration Permits and Federal patented and unpatented mining claims in the states of Arizona and Nevada for the purpose of exploration and potential development of gold on a total of approximately 11,250 acres. We plan to review opportunities and acquire additional mineral properties with current or historic precious and base metal mineralization with meaningful exploration potential.

Our properties do not have any reserves. We plan to conduct exploration programs on these properties with the objective of ascertaining whether any of our properties contain economic concentrations of precious and base metals that are prospective for mining.

Bullfrog Gold Project

(1) Location

The central part of the Bullfrog Mining District lies approximately 2-1/2 miles northwest of the town of Beatty, which is in southwestern Nevada (Figure 1). Beatty lies 116 miles northwest of Las Vegas, via U.S. Highway 95, and 93 miles south of Tonopah, also via U.S. Highway 95. The property is accessed by traveling 2 miles west from Beatty on Nevada Highway 374, which intersects the southern block of the Company’s claims. The remaining claims are accessed by traveling north for four miles on various improved and unimproved roads to the northern end of the Company’s claims.

Figure 1. Bullfrog Project Location Map

(2) Title & Holding Requirements

On September 29, 2011, Standard Gold entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement of Conveyance, Transfer and Assignment with Bullfrog Holdings, Inc. and NPX Metals, Inc., pursuant to which Standard Gold acquired 100% right, title and interest in and to certain mineral claims known as the “Bullfrog Project” in consideration for 923,077 shares of Standard Gold’s common stock which were issued to NPX Metals, Inc. and a 3% Net Smelter Royalty in the Bullfrog Project to Bullfrog Holdings, Inc. To retain the property, the Company must pay the annual claim maintenance fees and file a Notice of Intent to Hold with the BLM and Nye County, Nevada. The Company must also pay the county taxes on the two patented properties.

(3) History

In 1904 the Original Bullfrog and Montgomery-Shoshone mines were discovered by local prospectors. Prospecting activity was widespread over the Bullfrog Hills, and encompassed a 200 square mile area but centered within a two mile radius around the town of Rhyolite and included part of the Company’s property. The Montgomery-Shoshone mine reportedly produced about 94,000 ounces of gold prior to its closure in 1911, but there was no significant production from the other mines during that time period. Mines in the district were sporadically worked from 1911 through 1941, but the Company has no production records of such limited activities.

The Company’s Providence lode mining claim designated by the Surveyor General as Survey No. 2470 was located in October 1904, surveyed in April 1906, patented in May 1906 and recorded in Nye County Nevada in June 1908. The unpatented Lucky Queen claim is immediately east and adjacent to the Providence patent and is believed to have been located in the same time period but was not patented.

With the rise of precious metal prices in the early 1970's, the Bullfrog District again underwent intense prospecting and exploration activity for gold as well as uranium. Companies exploring the area included Texas Gas Exploration, Inc., Phillips Uranium, Tenneco /Copper Range, U.S. Borax, Western States Minerals, Rayrock, St. Joe American and successors Bond, Lac and Barrick Minerals, Noranda, Angst Mining Company, Placer Dome, Lac-Sunshine Mining Company Joint Venture, Homestake, and others. In addition to these major companies, several junior mining companies and individuals were involved as prospectors, promoters and owners. These scientific investigations yielded a new deposit model for the gold deposits that were mined by others in the Bullfrog District. The identification and understanding of the detachment fault system led to significant changes in exploration program techniques, focus, and success.

In 1982 St. Joe American, Inc. initiated drilling in the Montgomery-Shoshone mine area. By 1986, sixty holes had been drilled and a mineral inventory was defined. Subsequent drilling outlined a reported 2.9 million ounces of gold equivalent in the Bullfrog deposit. A series of corporate takeovers transferred ownership from St. Joe, to Bond Gold, to Lac Minerals and eventually to Barrick Minerals. Production started in 1989 and recovered approximately 200,000 ounces of gold annually from a conventional, 8,000 ton/day cyanidation mill mainly fed from open pit operations and later supplemented with underground production. Barrick discontinued production operations in 1999 and completed reclamation in 2003. Thereafter several groups continued exploration on a limited basis on lands currently held by the Company, but no resources or reserves were ever defined by these companies on the Company’s lands.

(4) Property Status and Plans

The Montgomery-Shoshone open pit mine remains open for possible access to additional mineralization that may occur on the Company’s adjacent property, but the company has no rights or authority to use such existing access on lands owned by others. The Company has conducted limited field examinations on its property to date but has evaluated all relevant available information. An exploration program has been developed and is scheduled to begin in 2013. Our primary targets are deposits that may be mined by open pit methods while assessing secondary targets that have potential for underground mining. The Company’s claims and patents cover approximately 1,620 acres and are in good standing, but contain no known resources or reserves and no plant or equipment. Electric power is available within two to five miles of the Company’s property. The exploration program planned for the Bullfrog Project is provided below:

Upon receipt of BLM approval, drilling would start soon thereafter. The geological justifications for the proposed exploration program are:

Our property is adjacent to an open pit mined in the late 1990’s and this area has significant potential for mineral extensions. It is noted that when previous production operations in the District were shut down, the price of gold was less than $350 per ounce compared to the current price near $1,600 per ounce. The previous operator also did not control the patent and Lucky Queen claim that are adjacent to the Montgomery-Shoshone open pit and five other claims in the area which are now part of the Company’s property.

Several mineralized trends and structures occur on other areas of the Company’s property that further justify additional drilling, see Figure 1.

Each of the calendar quarters are phased programs whereby results from Q2 (phase 1) in 2013 must justify the continuation of activities in Q4 (phase 2). Exploration thereafter is dependent on results and other technical and economic considerations.

The exploration programs will be funded from debt and equity programs that the Company is currently working on. In the event sufficient funds are not obtained, the programs will be deferred accordingly.

The company has engaged Chip Allender to manage the exploration activities on the Bullfrog Project. Mr. Allender has 33 years of experience in the mining industry, has a BS in Geology from the Colorado State University, is a Registered Professional Geologist in Utah and Washington, is a member of the Society of Mining Engineers, is a Certified Professional Geologist (AIPG) and is recognized as a Qualified Person in Canada and a Competent Person under the European code.

The Company has not performed any drilling programs on the Bullfrog Project but will use comparable Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) procedures and protocols as described under the Newsboy Project.

(5) Geology

The Bullfrog Hills, in which the Bullfrog Project is located, are characterized by a complex geologic environment. The Hills are composed of complexly folded and faulted Tertiary volcanic rocks overlying a basement core complex of Paleozoic sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. The geologic structure is distinguished by widespread detachment faulting associated with tectonic events that formed the Basin and Range Geomorphic Province. The Bullfrog area mineral deposits occupy dilatant zones caused by tension faulting associated with the large detachment fault underlying the area. This detachment displacement and tension faulting resulted in the fracturing of brittle volcanic rocks that then became a suitable conduit for the movement of mineralizing hydrothermal fluids. This fracturing and fluid movement allowed for the saturation of a large volume of rock with mineral bearing solutions. The structural framework of the area also shows that classic strike slip faulting associated with movement of the upper plate of the detachment fault caused north south tension fractures and additional dilatant zones. Much technical work has been completed by government as well as private entities in the district since the early 1970's. This work includes geophysics, airborne radiometric surveys, geologic mapping, drilling and geochemistry.

Newsboy Gold Project

(1) Location

The Newsboy Gold Project is located in the Vulture Mountains of Arizona and consists of approximately 4,958 acres of state and federal lands located 45 miles northwest of the City of Phoenix, Arizona in Maricopa County (In the normal course of business we have staked over 100 additional mining claims, but these have not yet been filed with the US BLM or Maricopa County. As a result, the official ownership of these claims has not been recorded. After recordation, these additional claims will be owned by the Company and increase our Newsboy Project to approximately 7,400 acres). The closest towns, Wickenburg and Morristown, are located 10 miles and 3 miles respectively from the site. The Project is accessed by traveling on paved and gravel roads for 3 miles due west of Morristown. This route includes an unimproved crossing of the Hassayampa River, which flows a few days per year after severe rain storms. The Newsboy Project is located close to several well-known historical gold mines including: the Vulture, Congress and Yarnell mines.

(2) Title & Holding Requirements

On August 30, 2011, Standard Gold entered into an Agreement of Conveyance, Transfer and Assignment with Aurum National Holdings Ltd. (“Aurum”), pursuant to which Standard Gold purchased an option held by Aurum under that certain Option to Purchase and Royalty Agreement dated as of August 13, 2009 and as amended on June 30, 2011, between Aurum and Southwest Exploration, Inc. (“Southwest”), which gave Aurum the option to purchase a 100% right, title and interest in and to certain mineral claims known as the “Newsboy Project”. In consideration for the assignment of the option, Standard Gold issued to Aurum and its designees an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of its common stock.

On September 28, 2011, Standard Gold and Southwest entered into an Option to Purchase and Royalty Agreement pursuant to which Southwest granted to Standard Gold, the sole and immediate working right and option to earn a One Hundred Percent (100%) interest in and to the Newsboy Project property free and clear of all charges encumbrances and claims. In order to maintain the working right and option, Standard Gold is obligated to pay Southwest an aggregate of $3,425,000. $500,000 has previously been paid. The balance of $2,925,000 is payable on the following schedule:

	(i)	on January 1, 2012, the sum of US $150,000.00; July 1, 2012 the sum of US $150,000.00;
	(ii)	on January 1, 2013, the sum of US $200,000.00; July 1, 2013 the sum of US $200,000.00;
	(iii)	on January 1, 2014, the sum of US $250,000.00; July 1, 2014 the sum of US $250,000.00;
	(iv)	on January 1, 2015, the sum of US $300,000.00; July 1, 2015 the sum of US $300,000.00;
	(v)	on January 1, 2016, the sum of US $350,000.00; July 1, 2016 the sum of US $350,000.00; and
	(vi)	on January 1, 2017, the sum of US $425,000.00.

The first option payment of $150,000 was paid in December 2011, the second option payment of $150,000 was paid in June 2012 and the third option payment of $200,000 was paid in December 2012. Upon the full payment of the balance of $2,425,000, the option will be considered automatically exercised and the Company will have earned a 100% interest in and to the Newsboy Project property free and clear of all liens and encumbrances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company is obligated to pay a Net Smelter Royalty payment equal to two percent (2%) of the proceeds from the sale or other disposition from any purchaser of any mineral derived from the ore mined from the Newsboy Project property. To retain the property, the Company must also pay the annual claim maintenance fees and file a Notice of Intent to Hold with the Bureau of Land Management and Maricopa County. The Company must also make annual payments for the lands leased from the State of Arizona. Should the Company choose not to maintain the working right and option to the property, the Company can forego future payments to Southwest without penalty. A total of $500,000 was paid to Southwest as part of the option to purchase agreement by third parties, which converted into an aggregate of 1,250,000 Units in the 2011 Private Placement. These payments have been recorded as increases to mineral property on the balance sheet.

In addition to the above payments, $50,000 was paid to Southwest by a third party for additional direct costs of acquiring the mineral property which converted into an aggregate of 125,000 Units in the 2011 Private Placement. This payment is included as an increase to mineral property on the balance sheet.

(3) History

Recorded historic mining activity is limited to a mineralized breccia exposed in the central zone of the deposit. Miscellaneous workings dating from 1915 include adits, a raise, a winze, trenches and an irregular inclined shaft. From 1940 to 1941 an estimated 11,000 tons of ore was shipped as flux to smelters in Arizona. The average grade of this material was 0.07 ounces of gold and 8.1 ounces of silver per ton. Several smaller prospects consisting of shafts, adits and shallow pits (likely of limited production) are scattered throughout the Project.

During the 1980’s several junior mining companies conducted evaluation work on the Project. In 1985 a 22-hole (4,170 feet) rotary percussion drill program by the Checkmate Resources Ltd. /Little Bear Resources Ltd. joint venture (“CLB”). Subsequently, Westmont Mining Company (“Westmont” or “WMC”) recovered and assayed duplicate samples from the CLB holes. Westmont secured title to the Project and in 1987 began a program of geologic mapping, aerial photography and photogrammetry, rock chip sampling of outcrops and 83 reverse circulation drill holes totaling 19,080 feet. In 1989 Lupine Minerals Corporation (“LM”) secured a joint venture with Westmont and drilled 19 additional reverse circulation holes totaling 4,530 feet. By the end of 1989 a total of 102 holes (23,610 feet) had been drilled on the Project.

During 1990 and 1991, Newsboy Gold Mining Company (NGMC), a 100% owned subsidiary of the Australian listed Pima Mining NL executed a purchase option on the Newsboy Project from Westmont. NGMC drilled 12 diamond core holes (1,681 feet), 40 reverse circulation holes (6,560 feet), conducted metallurgical test work, re-interpreted the geology and completed resource/reserve and mine planning studies. NGMC also completed the following studies in 1991 and 1992 in preparation for mining the Newsboy Project:

	·	Feasibility Study from Signet Engineering Pty Ltd. of Perth, Australia;
	·	Metallurgical Study from Kappes, Cassiday & Associates of Reno, Nevada;
	·	Resource and Reserve Calculation from Computer Aided Geoscience Pty. Ltd. of Sydney, Australia;
	·	Environmental Assessment from Fletcher Associates;
	·	Arizona Aquifer Protection by Lyntek Inc. Harding Lawson Associates, Water Resources Associates Inc.;
	·	Socioeconomic Impact of the Newsboy Gold Mine from the Western Economic Analysis Center;
	·	Mining Plan of Operations by Lyntek Inc. Harding Lawson Associates;
	·	Due Diligence Review of Newsboy Gold Project by Pincock, Allen & Holt Inc. (“PAH”); and,

Newsboy Gold Project, Plan of Execution by Signet Engineering.

Prior to the Company’s exploration programs completed in 2011 and 2012, a total of 31,851 feet of drilling has been completed on the Newsboy Project over five programs at an expenditure of more than $5 million.

1990	NGMC	DD	12	1,681
1992	NGMC	RC	40	6,560
Total			154	31,851

Metallurgical test work by Kappes, Cassiday and Associates (“KCA”) in 1991, has shown gold and silver recoveries on cyanide bottle roll tests of 82% and 19% respectively for mineral averaging 0.044 gold opt, ground to 80% passing 200 mesh and leached for 24 hours. Cyanide and lime consumptions were low, ranging from 0.07 to 0.38 pounds per ton for cyanide and 1.3 to 2.3 pounds per ton for hydrated lime. KCA concluded that “the ore is fairly clean and free of cyanicides”.

In 1991 a feasibility study was completed for a 600,000 ton per annum processing plant for the Newsboy Project. The report included design criteria for the Newsboy Project including metallurgical test work, equipment lists, mass balance flow sheet consistent with the design criteria,, layouts, process description with proposed equipment and plant operation, infrastructure review, mine plan, development capital, operating costs and a project schedule.

The feasibility study concluded that ore could be economically processed at a rate of 600,000 ton per annum at a mineable grade of 0.05 ounces of gold and 1.4 ounces of silver per ton at an average strip ratio of 3.6:1. Anticipated recoveries, based on the metallurgical studies, were projected at 90% for gold and 20% for silver for a proposed production rate of 27,000 ounces of gold and 168,000 ounces of silver per year. In 1993 NGMC was sold to Moneta Porcupine Mines. Moneta cored 8 holes and completed geophysical and geochemical programs, but abandoned the property in 1995 due to low gold prices and other considerations.

From September 2008 to August 2009 Southwest acquired the Newsboy Project by staking 44 lode claims (880 acres) and 12 placer claims (1,920 acres). Four separate state leases (1,520 acres) were also acquired. Southwest evaluated the geology, drilling, workings, survey control and access, and collected 33 samples. Of these samples, 10 assayed at or above the gold cut-off range of 0.8 ppm. In 2009 and 2010 an additional 46 lode claims were staked.

(4) Property Status and Plans

The Company’s property contains no known reserves and no plant or equipment. Electric power is available approximately 3 miles from the Company’s property. The Company and its independent consultants have developed a detailed exploration drilling program to confirm and expand existing mineralized zones and collect additional environmental data. The first phase drilling of 24 holes was started in November 2011 and completed at the end of January 2012. After sufficient additional drilling is completed during 2013, the Company intends to update the historic feasibility study and environmental permit applications and advance the project toward development. The exploration program planned for the Newsboy Project is provided below:

The Company intends to file Notices of Intent to Drill to the US BLM to allow drilling to be completed per the schedule above. The geological justifications for the proposed exploration program are:

A historic resource and open pit mine plan were established by predecessor owners in 1992. The company has successfully completed two drill programs during the first half of 2012 and is sufficiently encouraged to proceed with exploration and development activities. A new mineral zone has been discovered in the main deposit, which has several areas that justify additional drilling to increase mineralization and better define an open pit mine plan.

Additional exploration targets within a few miles of the main deposit are fully justified for drilling to test for further increases in mineralization and enhance the development and production potential of the Project.

Each of the calendar quarters are phased programs whereby results from Q1 (phase 3) in 2013 must justify the continuation of activities in Q2 (phase 4) and likewise for Q4 (phase 5) for 2013. Exploration and development thereafter is dependent on results and other technical and economic considerations and conditions.

Mr. Clive Bailey has been responsible for all the Newsboy programs since October 2011 and will continue to manage the programs on the Newsboy Project. Mr. Bailey has 38 years of experience in the mining industry, has a BS in Geology from the Kent State University, is a Certified Professional Geologist (AIPG) and is s recognized as a Qualified Person in Canada.

The Company performs and abides by industry standard concerning QA/QC procedures and protocols. Below is a brief description of these procedures used during the drilling programs completed at the Newsboy Project:

All drilling was performed using reverse circulation methods. Drill cuttings were sampled at intervals of 5 feet and split in the field to typically produce 15-pound representative samples for further preparation and assaying. These samples were then bagged, tagged and secured under the management, direction, supervision and custody of Clive Bailey, the Company’s Consulting Geologist. Sample lots were transported to the Company’s office in Morristown and stored until Skyline Laboratories accepted custody upon loading on their truck for transport to a secure sample storage building at their laboratory in Tucson, Arizona,

All Company samples were analyzed using a 30 g fire assay (FA) with an atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) finish for gold. This technique has a lower detection limit of 0.005 ppm and an upper detection limit of 3.00 ppm. Samples with greater than 3.00 ppm gold were re-analyzed using a 30 g FA with a gravimetric finish. All samples were also analyzed using a5 g sample with a four acid digestion for silver and multi-element analysis using an Induced Coupled Plasma Emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) instrument This technique has a lower detection limit of 1 ppm and an upper detection limit of 150 ppm. Samples with greater than 150 ppm silver were re-analyzed using a 30 g FA with a gravimetric finish.

Skyline crushed the entire sample to 75% passing – 10 mesh and then split 250 g for pulverization to 95% – 150 mesh. Cleaner sand was run through the crusher every 25 samples or at any color change in the sample as noticed by Skyline’s lab tech. Sand was run between every sample in the pulverizing step to preclude lingering contamination. Pulps were split again to separate a 30 g sample for FA/AAS for gold and a 5 g sample for multi-acid digestion and ICP-OES and multi element analysis.

All Newsboy samples from the 48 holes from Phase 1 and Phase 2 drilled by the company were analyzed at Skyline Laboratories. Skyline has ISO/IEC 17025:2005 certification for FA/AAS. ICP-OES and ICP-Mass Spectroscopy (MS). The 26 holes in Phase 3 drill results are being analyzed by Skyline using the same procedures.

QA/QC samples used by the company include blanks, standards and field duplicates. The inserts QA/QC samples at the following frequencies:

	·	One to two blanks per hole pending depth and observes mineralization. Blanks were inserted at the end of each mineralized sequence;
	·	One to two standards per hole. Two standards were inserted if a second mineralized zone was observed ( two standards were used as deemed appropriate – one being high grade and the other being low grade); and
	·	One duplicate sample for each 100 feet or 20 five-foot samples.

Blank material was a barren marble purchased from building material stores. The blank is uncertified but analysis continually showed it was below detection limits for gold and silver. Two certified standards were purchased from WCM Minerals Ltd (WCM) of Burnaby, British Columbia. In addition, Skyline performs their own internal controls to assure accuracy and precision of their results.

The Company and its Consultants are of the opinion that the QA/QC program was appropriate for collecting, preparing and analyzing drill samples and were adequate for the purposes intended in the normal course for calculating resource and reserve estimates. Skyline’s assay certificates were also stamped by an assayer registered in the State of Arizona.

(5) Geology

The Newsboy Project is an epithermal gold deposit and is one of several gold deposits that occur within a broad mineral belt that sweeps across the southwestern half of Arizona. The Project area is located within the Basin and Range Province of Central Arizona. Tertiary volcanic and sedimentary sequences rest unconformably on Proterozoic metamorphic and granitic rocks. Middle Miocene faulting has dissected the tertiary sequences into a series of north-northwest homoclines that dip to the northeast.

The gold and silver mineralization at the Newsboy Project occurs in a shallow dipping, major brecciated shear zone referred to as the Newsboy Fault, which forms the local unconformable contact between the overlying brittle Tertiary volcanics and underlying Proterozoic metamorphic basement rocks. This contact is a shallow dipping, blanket-like breccia ranging from 50 feet to 120 feet thick. The deposit is cut by a series of northwest trending high angle faults, resulting in the Newsboy ore body being progressively down dropped to the east. The deposit is terminated on the west by one of these high angle faults, referred to as the “Wash Fault” but is open to the north, south and down dip.

Mineralization occurs in veins of white to light green banded quartz and is very low in sulphide minerals. The gold and silver appear to have been introduced into the breccia with silica by a series of low temperature epithermal pulses of mineralized fluids partially filled open spaced fractures. Extensive silicification accompanied mineralization and has been later overprinted by black, manganiferous calcite veining. The gold deposition is surrounded by intense oxidizing hydrothermal activity that has altered the rhyolitic rocks to various assemblages of quartz, alunite and kaolinite.

The Newsboy breccia mineralization is exposed in Wash Fault which marks the western boundary of the ore body. Elsewhere, Quaternary sediments, up to 60 feet in depth, cover the breccia.

Klondike Project

(1) Location

The central part of the Klondike claim block is located in the Alpha Mining District approximately 30 miles north from the town of Eureka in central Nevada (Figure 3). The property is accessed by traveling 3 miles north from Eureka on US Hwy 50, thence 30 miles north on Nevada Highway 278, thence east 2 miles along various dirt roads. The claim block is approximately 5 miles north -south and 1.5 miles east-west.

(2) Title & Holding Requirements

On June 11, 2012, Standard Gold and Arden Larson entered into an Option to Purchase and Royalty Agreement pursuant to which Larson granted to Standard Gold, the sole and immediate working right and option to earn a One Hundred Percent (100%) interest in and to the Klondike Project property free and clear of all charges encumbrances and claims. In order to maintain the working right and option, Standard Gold is obligated to pay Larson an aggregate of $575,000 over a 10-year period plus net smelter royalties from the claims and an area of interest.

(3) History

The Alpha Mining District was organized about 1877 but no significant activity occurred until 1895. There is no record of production but tonnages were small. A second period of activity began with the discovery of the Old Whelan Mine, which was believed to have shipped to Salt Lake City, Utah. The Prince of Wales Mine produced copper sulfide ores from shallow workings during World War I. Since then the district has been idle but was evaluated in detail in 1977 by W. Van der Ley, a consulting geologist. During 2010 until mid-2012 Arden Larson, Geologist, investigated the property and staked the first 64 claims. Since then Standard Gold staked an additional 168 claims to cover most of the Alpha Mining District.

(4) Property Status and Plans

The Company’s property contains no known reserves and no plant or equipment. The Company and its independent consultants have developed a mapping and drilling program to explore several priority targets observed on the Klondike claims. The first phase of this program will focus on those targets having shallow high grade silver potential. The exploration program planned for the Klondike Project is provided below:

(5) Geology

The prospect pits, adits and shafts on the Klondike claims are located primarily in the lower elevations of the west side of the Sulphur springs Mountain range in Paleozoic lower plate carbonates and siliciclastics in NE trending fault breccia zones. The western part of the area may be a structural outlier from the main range front fault. This outlier is a much dissected faulted section of lower Paleozoic rocks in fault contact with the upper plate units of the Roberts Mountain Thrust. In addition to shallow silver, copper, lead, zinc and barite occurrences, the area also has a strong geochemical signature of molybdenum.

We are still in the exploration stage and have no revenues to date.

During the year ended December 31, 2012 we had a net loss of $1,369,550 compared to a net loss of $2,228,077 for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease of $858,527 is due primarily to:

	1.	General and Administrative variances due to the following:
			a.	The mining claim filing fees increased from approximately $36,000 in 2011 to approximately $111,000 in 2012. This increase in mining claim filing fees is due to the addition of the Klondike Project in June 2012, which increased the mining claim filing fees in 2012 by approximately $71,000.

		b.	Professional fees (legal, accounting and other) of approximately $385,000 in 2012 increased by approximately $143,000 compared to 2011. This increase in professional fees was mainly due to the filing of the registration statement on the Form S-1 in September and the subsequent amendments to the registration statement that were filed in November and December. Additionally, the 2012 Private Placement in November and December and the RMB debt facility in that closed in December required legal services along with the filing of current reports on Form 8K.
		c.	The employment of two individuals for the full 12 months in 2012 versus approximately five months in 2011. This increased that payroll expenses by $244,000 in 2012. There was also a non-cash year-end stock bonus that was awarded in December 2012 of $185,000.
		d.	Stock-based compensation of approximately $348,000 in 2012 versus $156,000 in 2011 is a result of issuances pursuant to the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan. See Note 2 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion and valuation of common stock options
2.	Exploration costs increased from approximately $127,000 in 2011 to approximately $967,000 in 2012. This increase of approximately of $840,000 is due to the phase 1 drilling program at the Newsboy Project was started at the end of the year in 2011 with the majority of the cost being incurred in 2012. Additionally, there was a phase 2 drilling program that was started and completed in 2012. These 2 drilling programs also increased the cost of professional consulting services from approximately $61,000 in 2011 to approximately $198,000 in 2012.
3.	Marketing expenses in 2012 of approximately $1,272,000 versus $375,000 resulted in an increase of approximately $897,000 due to the following:
		a.	The Company engaged marketing and public relations companiesto introduce Bullfrog to the mining industry as a new gold mining company that has projects in Arizona and Nevada. The expense in 2012 to these marketing companies was approximately $681,000 versus $71,000 in 2011.
		b.	Also included is stock-based compensation for marketing consultants of approximately $529,000 in 2012 versus approximately $237,000 in 2011. See Note 2 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion and valuation of common stock options.

	4.	The forgiveness of all accrued interest by the note holders in 2011 in conjunction with the reverse merger which was recognized as a gain on forgiveness of debt of $28,499.
	5.	The Revaluation of Warrant Liability of a gain of approximately $2,500,000 in 2012 versus a loss of approximately $1,127,000 in 2011 resulting from warrants issued as part of the 2011 Private Placement and 2012 Private Placement. See Note 3 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion and valuation of the warrant liability.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a result of the 2011 Private Placement of $3,650,900 (which includes the conversion of debt owed by the Company in the aggregate amount of $940,900 which was converted on a dollar for dollar basis into the 2011 Private Placement) we received net cash proceeds of $2,710,000. Losses from operations have been incurred since inception and there is an accumulated deficit of approximately $3,638,000 as of December 31, 2012. Continuation as a going concern is dependent upon raising additional funds and attaining profitable operations. During 2012 the Company had unplanned marketing expenses of $300,000 and the purchase of the historical database from Moneta Porcupine Mines for $100,000, we had approximately $10,000 in cash as of October 31, 2012. However, as part of the 2012 Private Placement the following was received (i) on November 19, 2012, we sold an aggregate of 4,300,000 units with gross proceeds to the Company of $1,075,000 to six accredited investors pursuant to a subscription agreement and (ii) on December 17, 2012, we sold an aggregate of 2,000,000 units with gross proceeds to the Company of $500,000 to three accredited investors pursuant to a subscription agreement.

In addition, on December 10, 2012 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Facility Agreement evidencing a secured loan (the “Facility”) with RMB Australia Holdings Limited (“RMB”), as the lender, in the amount of $4.2 million. The loan proceeds from the Facility will be used to fund an agreed work program relating to the Newsboy gold project located in Arizona and for agreed general corporate purposes. Standard Gold Corp., a Nevada Corporation (“Standard Gold”) and the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary is the borrower under the Facility and the Company is the guarantor of Standard Gold’s obligations under the Facility. Standard Gold paid an arrangement fee of 7% of the Facility amount due upon the first draw down, December 11, 2012, of the Facility, a total of $294,000 of which $50,000 was paid May 2012, therefore a balance due of $244,000 was paid to RMB. The Facility will be available until March 31, 2014 with the final repayment date due 24 months after the Closing Date. Standard Gold has the option to prepay without penalty any portion of the Facility at any time subject to 30 day notice, any broken period costs and minimum prepayment amounts of $500,000. The Facility bears interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 7% with interest payable quarterly in cash. In connection with the Facility, the Company issued 7,000,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock for $0.35 per share to be exercisable for 36 months after the Closing Date, with the proceeds from the exercise of the warrants to be used to repay the Facility. The Company met all of the conditions precedent to complete the closing for the RMB Facility and is receiving funds from RMB as requested by the Company based on the agreed work program. The Company must deliver to RMB (i) financial reports no later than 90 after the end of each financial year and 45 days after each quarter end, (ii) monthly reports no later than 21 days at the end of each month detailing the status of development of Newsboy, including actual to budget reconciliations, (iii) any proposed changes to the Corporate and Newsboy budget, and (iv) a Proceeds Account report no later than 21 days after the end of each quarter summarizing deposits and withdrawals, the Company has provided the required reports to RMB as of March 11, 2013. Each draw down request must be in accordance with the amounts set out in the agreed upon Corporate budget and Newsboy work program unless otherwise agreed upon between the Company and RMB. The Company is considered to be in default of the Facility if all or any material part of the Newsboy Project is abandoned. The foregoing is not a complete summary of the terms of the Facility, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Facility Agreement, the Security Agreements, the Pledge Agreement and the Form of Warrant attached as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5, respectively, to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 12, 2012 which are hereby incorporated by reference.

During 2013, the Company intends to drill 59 holes at the Newsboy Project at an average of 300 feet per hole for a total approximate footage of 23,400. The drilling will be done in phases during the year, which will comprise phases 3-5. The Company completed two phases of drilling in 2012, with a total of 48 drill holes and approximately 14,500 feet. We have completed drilling phase 3 in early March 2013, the drill results are currently being analyzed. We have contracted with Layne Christensen Company (“Layne”) to complete the drilling program. The Company will also use Skyline Laboratories (“Skyline”) to analyze the drill results. Please refer to the Newsboy Project under “Our Properties” for discussion of QA/QC procedures and protocols for analysis of drill results. The Company used Layne and Skyline for phases 1 and 2 in 2012. We intend to start phase 4 drilling in April and phase 5 drilling in December. The Company has contracted an independent certified professional geologist, Clive Bailey, who has been contracted with the Company since September 2011. Since we used Layne, Skyline and Mr. Bailey in the past we were able to produce an accurate budget for 2013 to help eliminate cost uncertainty. As of March 11, 2013 we have operating cash of approximately $175,000 and have received funds from RMB of approximately $987,000 comprised of (i) a first draw down on December 11, 2012 for approximately $428,000 which was used to pay legal fees related to the closing of the RMB Facility of approximately $87,000 and the remaining arrangement fee of $244,000 due to RMB (the arrangement fee was 7% of the Facility for a total of $294,000, however, the Company paid RMB $50,000 in May 2012 to be applied to the total arrangement fee leaving a balance due at closing of $244,000), therefore the Company received net cash from the first draw down of approximately $97,000, (ii) a second draw down on January 30, 2013 for approximately $317,000 and (iii) a third draw down on March 6, 2013 for approximately $242,000 which leaves a balance to be received of approximately $3,213,000.

Milestones scheduled for completion during 2013 include compilation of all relevant paper data into an electronic format, estimation of resources by an independent engineering firm using historic data and that collected by the Company in 2012 and the third drill program in 2013, perfection of land issues (including the acquisition of additional mining claims) and completion of an internal economic study of the Newsboy Project.

The Company intends to utilize the full Facility amount from RMB and will therefore need to raise additional funds to pay off the facility amount when due, December 10, 2014. Since September 30, 2011, the Company has gross equity proceeds of approximately $5,225,000 and plans to continue to raise funds through private placements. Additionally, we still need financing to begin exploration efforts at the Bullfrog and Klondike projects.

On December 17, 2012, the Company entered into a consulting agreement (the "Consulting Agreement") with Antibes International Corp. ("Antibes") to provide management consulting, business advisory, shareholder information and public relations services to the Company. In connection with the Consulting Agreement, the Company paid Antibes $500,000 from the proceeds of a private placement that was completed on December 17, 2012. On January 31, 2013, the Company amended the Consulting Agreement with Antibes to reduce the aggregate cash compensation payable thereunder from $1 million to $900,000 and paid the remaining $400,000 from the proceeds of the February 2013 Private Placement.

On February 4, 2013, the Company completed a private placement (the “February 2013 Private Placement”) where we sold an aggregate of 1,800,060 units with gross proceeds to the Company of $450,015 to five accredited investors pursuant to a subscription agreement. The proceeds from this offering will be used primarily for a future investor relations campaign. See Note 7 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details concerning the February 2013 Private Placement.

We have estimated minimum monthly general corporate expenses of $50,000 to $70,000. Along with that we expect to spend approximately $2,200,000 on the Newsboy project, which would include approximately $900,000 on drilling, $370,000 on engineering and testing, $350,000 on geologic consulting, $180,000 on environmental permitting and $165,000 on assaying We believe the financing discussed above will allow us to enhance the Newsboy project as well as position us to obtain additional financing as needed.

In addition to the continued exploration and commitments scheduled for the Newsboy and Bullfrog Projects, the Company must spend no less than $850,000 for the benefit of the Klondike Project to keep that Option in good standing per the following schedule:

	1.	$100,000 prior to June 11, 2013
	2.	An additional $150,000 prior to June 11, 2014
	3.	An additional $200,000 prior to June 11, 2015
	4.	An additional $200,000 prior to June 11, 2016
	5.	An additional $200,000 prior to June 11, 2017

As of March 11, 2013, the Company has spent on the Klondike Project approximately $71,000 on mining claim filing fees and approximately $20,000 on consulting fees.

Notwithstanding the above, the Company may terminate the Newsboy and Klondike Projects at any time.

On September 5, 2012, the Company issued and sold to one accredited investor a Promissory Note (the “Promissory Note”) in the principal amount of $200,000. The Promissory Note accrued interest at the rate of three percent (3%) per month, on a 360 day per year basis. The Promissory Note matures on October 1, 2012 (the “Initial Maturity Date”). On the Initial Maturity Date, the Company extended the Initial Maturity Date from October 1, 2012 to October 15, 2012 (the “Initial Extension Maturity Date”) by paying to the Holder an initial note extension payment equal to 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock issuable on the date such extension was elected (the “Initial Extension Payment”).

Furthermore, the Initial Maturity Date of the Note was extended to the Initial Maturity Extension Date and, on such date, the Company failed to pay the principal amount of the Promissory Note, along with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and the Initial Extension Maturity Date was automatically extended to December 1, 2012 (the “Second Maturity Date”). Since the Promissory Note was automatically extended to the Secondary Maturity Date, the Company paid to the holder of the Promissory Note an extension payment equal to 100,000 shares of our common stock (the “Extension Payment”). In connection with the Promissory Note the Company issued 150,000 shares to the holder of the Promissory Note.

As part of the 2012 Private Placement, the holder of the Promissory Note in the principal amount of $200,000 converted such indebtedness in exchange for 804,600 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock (which includes the conversion of $1,150 of accrued and unpaid interest on the Promissory Note) and Warrants to acquire 804,600 shares of the Company’s Common Stock.

As previously stated, the Company has obtained funding from RMB for certain agreed Corporate expenses and Newsboy Project expenses. However, additional expenses will require funding for the entirety of the amount that we spend in 2013. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. The trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will likely be required to curtail our exploration plans and possibly cease our operations. Our current business plan for the next 18 months calls for approximately $800,000 to start exploration activities on the Bullfrog Project and approximately $500,000 to start exploration on the Klondike Project. We are required to raise additional funds to start work on these projects as all current financing is restricted to the Newsboy Project and Corporate expenses.

We have no revenues and do not expect to have revenues in 2013. Therefore our future operations are dependent on our ability to secure additional external funding or through financing activities. Funding may not be available on acceptable terms or at all.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not engage in any activities involving variable interest entities or off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

Stock based compensation is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period. We estimate the fair value of each stock option as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock at the date of grant based on the volatility of comparable peer companies which are publicly traded. The Company determines the expected life based on historical experience with similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules and post-vesting forfeitures. The Company uses the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent remaining term approximately equal to the expected life of the award. The Company has never paid any cash dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, which requires additional disclosures about the Company’s objectives and strategies for using derivative instruments, how the derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for, and how the derivative instruments and related hedging items affect the financial statements. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risk. Terms of convertible debt and equity instruments are reviewed to determine whether or not they contain embedded derivative instruments that are required under ASC 815 to be accounted for separately from the host contract, and recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. The fair value of derivative liabilities, if any, is required to be revalued at each reporting date, with corresponding changes in fair value recorded in current period operating results. Pursuant to ASC 815, an evaluation of specifically identified conditions is made to determine whether the fair value of warrants issued is required to be classified as equity or as a derivative liability.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of December 31, 2012, the fiscal year end covered by this report, our management concluded its evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.

Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

With respect to the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon our evaluation regarding the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, have concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the Company’s limited internal audit functions

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act. Our management is also required to assess and report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”). Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework. During our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, management identified a material weakness related to our internal audit functions . Therefore, our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2012.

Management has determined that our internal audit function is significantly deficient due to insufficient qualified resources to perform internal audit functions, which can result in a material weakness in internal control over our financial reporting. Due to our size and nature, internal audit functions may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, we will implement procedures to assist in the technical review of transactions for financial reporting

We believe that the foregoing will remediate the material weakness identified above, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these steps and make any changes that our management deems appropriate. Due to the nature of this significant deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting, there is more than a remote likelihood that misstatements which could be material to our annual or interim financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.

A material weakness (within the meaning of PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 5) is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the company’s financial reporting.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Mr. Lindsay was a Director of Strategic American Oil Corporation from 2007-2010. Mr. Lindsay also served on the Board of Hana Mining Ltd. from 2005 to 2008. Mr. Lindsay was chosen to be a director of the Company based on his general industry experience.

Our directors hold office until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal or until their successors have been qualified.

There are no family relationships between any of our directors and our executive officers.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

To the Company’s knowledge, during the past ten (10) years, none of the Company’s directors, executive officers, promoters, control persons, or nominees has been:

·	the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;
·	convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);
·	subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or
·	found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our securities to file reports of change of ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms that we received, or written representations from certain reporting persons that no forms were required for those persons, we believe that during fiscal year 2012 all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were complied with by such persons in a timely manner.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics, which is available at our website or upon request to management.

Corporate Governance

Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors did not hold any formal meetings during the year ended December 31, 2012, but did take action by unanimous written consent in lieu of meetings on several occasions.

We currently do not maintain any committees of the Board of Directors. Given our size and the development of our business to date, we believe that the board through its meetings can perform all of the duties and responsibilities which might be contemplated by a committee. Except as may be provided in our bylaws, we do not currently have specified procedures in place pursuant to which whereby security holders may recommend nominees to the Board of Directors.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Although we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separate or combined, we have determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to separate these roles. Mr. Beling is our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Lindsay is the Chairman of our Board of Directors. We believe it is in the best interest of the Company to have the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer roles separated because it allows us to separate the strategic and oversight roles within our board structure.

Our Board of Directors is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes. The Board of Directors receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our Company’s assessment of risks. The Board of Directors focuses on the most significant risks facing our company and our Company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the Board’s appetite for risk. While the Board oversees our Company, our Company’s management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our Company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

Director Independence

We currently have two directors serving on our Board of Directors, Mr. David Beling and Mr. Alan Lindsay. We are not a listed issuer and, as such, are not subject to any director independence standards. Using the definition of independence set forth in the rules of the NYSE AMEX, Mr. Lindsay would be considered an independent director of the Company.

Board Diversity

While we do not have a formal policy on diversity, our Board considers diversity to include the skill set, background, reputation, type and length of business experience of our Board members as well as a particular nominee’s contributions to that mix. Although there are many other factors, the Board seeks individuals with experience on public company boards as well as experience with advertising, marketing, legal and accounting skills.

Board Assessment of Risk

Our risk management function is overseen by our Board. Our management keeps our Board apprised of material risks and provides our directors access to all information necessary for them to understand and evaluate how these risks interrelate, how they affect the Company, and how management addresses those risks. Mr. David Beling, a director and our President and Chief Executive Officer, works closely together with the Board once material risks are identified on how to best address such risk. If the identified risk poses an actual or potential conflict with management, our independent directors may conduct the assessment. The Board of Directors focuses on these key risks and interfaces with management on seeking solutions.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to the following table, each person named in the table has sole voting and investment power and that person’s address is c/o Bullfrog Gold Corp, 897 Quail Run Drive, Grand Junction, CO 81505. Shares of common stock subject to options, warrants, conversion rights or other rights currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of March 11, 2013, are deemed to be beneficially owned and outstanding for computing the share ownership and percentage of the stockholder holding such options, warrants or other rights, but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of any other stockholder. The percentage ownership shown in such table is based upon the 42,278,945 shares that were issued and outstanding on March 11, 2013.

Excludes Warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $0.40 per share, issued to the Beling Family Trust in the 2011 Private Placement.

The number of shares reflected in the Beneficial Ownership Table is limited accordingly. Without the 4.99% limitation total shares owned after exercise of 100,000 warrants would be 3,450,000 or 8.4%.
	(2)	Represents 1,108,859 shares of common stock, including 151,874 shares of common stock held by Mr. Lindsay’s wife.

The Warrants and the Preferred Stock may not be exercised or converted, as the case may be, and the holder may not receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by them and their affiliates after such exercise or conversion (as the case may be) exceeds 4.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock unless the Company receives a written waiver of such provision in accordance with the terms of the Warrant or the Series A Certificate of Designation. The number of shares reflected in the Beneficial Ownership Table is limited accordingly. Without the 4.99% limitation total shares owned after exercise of 687,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 2,056,435 warrants would be 5,169,189 or 12.2%.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors

Bullfrog Gold Corp.

Grand Junction, CO

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bullfrog Gold Corp. and Subsidiary ("the Company") (an exploration stage company) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, and for the cumulative period from January 12, 2010 (inception) to December 31, 2012. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Bullfrog Gold Corp. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, and for the cumulative period from January 12, 2010 (inception) to December 31, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

BULLFROG GOLD CORP.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business and Reverse Merger and Recapitalization

On September 30, 2011, Standard Gold Corp. (“Standard Gold”) entered into a Merger Agreement (the “Merger”) with a public shell company, Bullfrog Gold Corp. (“Bullfrog Gold”), formerly known as Kopr Resources Corp. pursuant to which Standard Gold merged with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of Bullfrog Gold as more fully described in Note 2. Such Merger caused Standard Gold to become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bullfrog Gold. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse-merger and recapitalization and Standard Gold was considered the accounting acquirer for accounting purposes and Bullfrog Gold the acquired company. The business of Standard Gold became the business of Bullfrog Gold. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the operations reflected in the historical financial statements prior to the Merger are those of Standard Gold and are recorded at the historical cost basis of Standard Gold. Bullfrog Gold Corp. along with Standard Gold Corp. is referred to hereafter as “the Company”.

Bullfrog Gold was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 23, 2007 as Kopr Resources Corp. On July 19, 2011, the Company’s board of directors approved the filing on an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Bullfrog Gold with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to authorize (i) the change of the name of the Company to "Bullfrog Gold Corp." from "Kopr Resources Corp.” (ii) the increase in the authorized capital stock to 250,000,000 shares and (iii) the change in par value of the capital stock to $0.0001 per share. The Company is in the exploration stage of its resource business. On July 19, 2011, the Company’s board of directors also approved the amendment and restatement of bylaws in order to, among other things, include provisions for board and shareholder meetings.

The Company is a junior exploration company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of properties that may contain gold mineralization in the United States. The Company’s target properties are those that have been the subject of historical exploration. The Company has acquired State Leases and Federal patented and unpatented mining claims in the states of Arizona and Nevada for the purpose of exploration and potential development of gold on a total of approximately 11,250 acres (in the normal course of business we have staked over 100 additional mining claims for the Newsboy Project, but these have not yet been filed with the US BLM or Maricopa County. As a result, the official ownership of these claims has not been recorded. After recordation, these additional claims will be owned by the Company and increase our Newsboy Project to approximately 7,400 acres). The Company plans to review opportunities and acquire additional mineral properties with current or historic precious and base metal mineralization with meaningful exploration potential.

The Company’s properties do not have any reserves. The Company plans to conduct exploration programs on these properties with the objective of ascertaining whether any of its properties contain economic concentrations of precious and base metals that are prospective for mining.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bullfrog Gold Corp., as of the date of the reverse merger, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Standard Gold Corp. All significant inter-entity balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Going Concern and Management’s Plans

The Company has incurred losses from operations since inception and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $3,638,000 as of December 31, 2012. The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon attaining profitable operations through achieving revenue growth. However, the Company will now have additional expenses as a result of it being a public company. The closing of the private placement of the Company’s securities for $1,845,150 (the “2012 Private Placement”) included the conversion of debt owed by the Company in the aggregate amount of $200,000 plus interest of $1,150 which was converted on a dollar for dollar basis. In addition, on December 10, 2012, the Company entered into a Facility Agreement evidencing a secured loan (the “Facility”) with RMB Australia Holdings Limited (“RMB”), as the lender, in the amount of $4.2 million. As a result of the $980,000 of net proceeds received from the 2012 Private Placement and the $4.2 million Facility, the Company believes it will have sufficient cash to satisfy the Company’s projected working capital and capital expenditure needs, and debt obligations through December 31, 2013. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in meeting its cash flow requirements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Concentration

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with a high credit quality financial institution. The Company’s account at this institution is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $250,000. At December 31, 2012, the Company’s cash balance was approximately $600,000. To reduce its risk associated with the failure of such financial institution, the Company will evaluate at least annually the rating of the financial institution in which it holds deposits.

F-7

Use of Estimates

The 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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Mineral Property Acquisition and Exploration Costs

Costs of lease, exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. The Company has chosen to expense all mineral exploration costs as incurred given that it is still in the exploration stage. Once the Company has identified proven and probable reserves in its investigation of its properties and upon development of a plan for operating a mine, it would enter the development stage and capitalize future costs until production is established. When a property reaches the production stage, the related capitalized costs will be amortized over the estimated life of the probable-proven reserves. When the Company has capitalized mineral properties, these properties will be periodically assessed for impairment of value and any diminution in value. To date, the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of any exploration prospects; therefore, all costs are being expensed. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company incurred exploration cost of approximately $967,000.

Costs of property acquisitions are being capitalized.

Deferred Financing Fees

In conjunction with the Facility with RMB, the Company paid financing fees of approximately $1,300,000 in cash and warrants. These fees were capitalized as deferred financing fees and will be amortized over the life of the Facility using the effective interest method. Amortization of deferred financing fees included in interest expense in 2012 was approximately $37,000.

Exploration Stage Company

The Company complies with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915-235-50 and Securities and Exchange Commission Act Guide 7 for its characterization of the Company as an exploration stage enterprise.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

	·	Level 1 – Valuation based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
	·	Level 2 – Valuation based on quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.
	·	Level 3 – Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring management’s best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value.

The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured using Level 1 or 2 inputs. The Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities measured at fair value consisted of the warrant liability as of December 31, 2012 and 2011. See Note 3.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, and other liabilities and the warrant liability is already recorded at fair value. The fair value of the Company’s note payable approximates the carrying value based upon current rates available to the Company.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, "Income Taxes". Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases as well as operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent that the recoverability of the asset is unlikely to be recognized.

The Company reports a liability, if any, for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, in an income tax return. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits, if and when required, as part of income tax expense in the statement of operations. No liability has been recorded for uncertain income tax positions, or related interest or penalties as of December 31, 2012 or 2011. The periods ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 are open to examination by taxing authorities.

F-8

Long Lived Assets

The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. When the Company determines that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more indicators of impairment and the carrying value of the asset cannot be recovered from projected undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge. The Company measures any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in the current business model. Significant management judgment is required in determining whether an indicator of impairment exists and in projecting cash flows.

Preferred Stock

The Company accounts for its preferred stock under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification on Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, which sets forth the standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This standard requires an issuer to classify a financial instrument that is within the scope of the standard as a liability if such financial instrument embodies an unconditional obligation to redeem the instrument at a specified date and/or upon an event certain to occur. The Company has determined that its preferred stock does not meet the criteria requiring liability classification as its obligation to redeem these instruments is not based on an event certain to occur. Future changes in the certainty of the Company’s obligation to redeem these instruments could result in a change in classification.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), which requires additional disclosures about the Company’s objectives and strategies for using derivative instruments, how the derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for, and how the derivative instruments and related hedging items affect the financial statements. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risk. Terms of convertible debt and equity instruments are reviewed to determine whether or not they contain embedded derivative instruments that are required under ASC 815 to be accounted for separately from the host contract, and recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. The fair value of derivative liabilities, if any, is required to be revalued at each reporting date, with corresponding changes in fair value recorded in current period operating results. Pursuant to ASC 815, an evaluation of specifically identified conditions is made to determine whether the fair value of warrants issued is required to be classified as equity or as a derivative liability.

On November 2, 2012, we reduced the exercise price of all 2011 Private Placement warrants to $.40 per share. In accordance with ASC 718 the amount of additional expense recognized was determined by calculating the fair value of the warrants immediately before the modification less the fair value of the warrants as modified. We calculated the fair value of warrants immediately before and after the modification using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions:

	Before	After
Fair market value of common stock	$0.38	$0.38
Exercise price	$0.60	$0.40
Term	1.92 Years	1.92 Years
Volatility range	68.4%	68.4%
Risk-free rate	0.25%	0.25%
Fair value of warrant	$398,444	$605,578

The incremental increase in fair value was $207,134. The 2011 Private Placement warrants were reclassified from liability to equity on October 1, 2012 and therefore there was no effect on the Consolidated Statements of Operations or Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

The estimated fair value of each stock option as of the date of grant was calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock at the date of grant based on the volatility of a comparable peer company which is publicly traded. The Company determines the expected life based on historical experience with similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules and post-vesting forfeitures. The Company uses the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent remaining term approximately equal to the expected life of the award. The Company has never paid any cash dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The shares of stock subject to the stock-based compensation plan shall consist of unissued shares, treasury shares or previously issued shares held by any Subsidiary of the Company, and such number of shares of stock are reserved for such purpose.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There are several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") which are not yet effective. Management does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements will be applicable and therefore will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or operating results.

NOTE 2 - STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

Pre-Reverse Merger Transactions

In 2010, Standard Gold began negotiations to acquire a 90% interest in property located near Beatty, Nevada (“the Bullfrog Project”) owned by NPX Metals, Inc. (“NPX Metals”). As of December 31, 2010, Standard Gold had issued 923,077 shares of common stock as consideration for the property interest

The remaining 10% interest in the Bullfrog Project was acquired by Standard Gold from Bull Frog Holdings Inc., in June, 2010 in exchange for $100,000 cash paid directly by one of Standard Gold’s lenders. Bull Frog Holdings, Inc. is an affiliate of NPX Metals.

On May 1, 2011, Standard Gold entered into a final agreement whereby Standard Gold acquired all of the working interest in the Bullfrog Project for a total consideration of a 3% net smelter return royalty due to NPX Metals.

Between July and August 25, 2011, Standard Gold issued a total of 1,678,612 common shares for cash consideration of $545. Such shares are reflective of a reverse split of Standard Gold’s common stock, effective August 26, 2011, on a 1 for 3.25 basis. All share data in the accompanying financial statements and notes have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse split.

On August 30, 2011, Standard Gold entered into an Agreement of Conveyance, Transfer and Assignment with Aurum National Holdings Ltd. (“Aurum”), pursuant to which the Company purchased an option held by Aurum under that certain Option to Purchase and Royalty Agreement dated as of August 13, 2009 and as amended on June 30, 2011, between Aurum and Southwest Exploration, Inc. (“Southwest”), which gave Aurum the option to purchase a 100% right, title and interest in and to certain mineral claims in Arizona known as the “Newsboy Project”. In consideration for the assignment of the option, Standard Gold issued to Aurum and its designees an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of its common stock. In addition Aurum had made deposits to vendors that were transferred to the Company to be applied to future expenses. Of these payments, $6,364 was paid back to the Company in October 2011 and $45,000 was applied to exploration costs in November 2011.

On September 28, 2011, Standard Gold and Southwest entered into an Option to Purchase and Royalty Agreement pursuant to which Southwest granted to Standard Gold, the sole and immediate working right and option to earn a One Hundred Percent (100%) interest in and to the Newsboy Project property free and clear of all charges encumbrances and claims in consideration for $3,425,000, of which $500,000 was previously paid by a third party (the “Prepayment Amount”). The balance due to Southwest on September 30, 2011 of $2,925,000 is payable on the following schedule:

	(i)	on January 1, 2012, the sum of US $150,000.00; July 1, 2012 the sum of US $150,000.00;
	(ii)	on January 1, 2013, the sum of US $200,000.00; July 1, 2013 the sum of US $200,000.00;
	(iii)	on January 1, 2014, the sum of US $250,000.00; July 1, 2014 the sum of US $250,000.00;
	(iv)	on January 1, 2015, the sum of US $300,000.00; July 1, 2015 the sum of US $300,000.00;

	(v)	on January 1, 2016, the sum of US $350,000.00; July 1, 2016 the sum of US $350,000.00; and
	(vi)	on January 1, 2017, the sum of US $425,000.00.

F-10

The first option payment of $150,000 was paid in December 2011. Upon the full payment of the balance of $2,775,000, the option will be considered automatically exercised and the Company will have earned a 100% interest in and to the Newsboy Project property free and clear of all liens and encumbrances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company is obligated to pay a Net Smelter Royalty payment equal to two percent (2%) of the proceeds from the sale or other disposition from any purchaser of any mineral derived from the ore mined from the Newsboy Project property. To retain the property, the Company must also pay the annual claim maintenance fees and file a Notice of Intent to Hold with the Bureau of Land Management and Maricopa County. The Company must also make annual payments for the lands leased from the State of Arizona. Should the Company choose not to maintain the working right and option to the property, the Company can forego future payments to Southwest without penalty. A total of $500,000 was paid to Southwest as part of the option to purchase agreement by third parties, which converted into an aggregate of 1,250,000 Units in the 2011 Private Placement. These payments have been recorded as increases to mineral property on the balance sheet.

Reverse Merger Transaction

On September 30, 2011, the Company entered into an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with Standard Gold, a privately held Nevada corporation, and Bullfrog Gold Acquisition Corp., the Company’s newly formed, wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary (“Acquisition Sub”), pursuant to which Standard Gold merged with and into Acquisition Sub, with Standard Gold as the surviving entity, causing Standard Gold to become the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Merger”). The Merger was completed in order to receive financing for the exploration of the Newsboy Project in Arizona and the Bullfrog Project in Nevada.

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the closing of the Merger, an aggregate of 14,357,135 shares of Standard Gold’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger were converted into securities of the Company based on the following breakdown: (i) 13,645,596 of the shares of Standard Gold’s outstanding common stock were converted into the right to receive an aggregate of 13,645,596 shares of the Company’s common stock on a one for one basis and (ii) an aggregate of 711,539 of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Standard Gold immediately prior to the closing of the Merger was converted into the right to receive an aggregate of 711,539 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on a one for one basis (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), which is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock on a one for one basis.

2011 Private Placement

Following the closing of the Merger, the Company sold an aggregate of 9,127,250 units in a 2011 Private Placement (the “2011 Private Placement”) at a per unit price of $0.40, with each unit consisting of (i) one share of the Company’s common stock (except that certain investors elected to receive in lieu of common stock, one share of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock) and (ii) a three year warrant to purchase shares of common stock equal to 50% of the number of shares purchased in the 2011 Private Placement at an exercise price of $0.60 per share. The Company sold a total of 5,252,250 units consisting of common shares and a total of 3,875,000 units consisting of Series A Preferred Stock, resulting in total proceeds of $3,650,900. The 2011 Private Placement includes the conversion of debt owed by the Company in the aggregate amount of $940,900 which was converted on a dollar for dollar basis into the 2011 Private Placement. Net of converted debt, the 2011 Private Placement generated cash proceeds of $2,710,000.

The Company entered into registration rights agreements (the “Registration Rights Agreements”) with the investors in the 2011 Private Placement. Effective March 16, 2012, the Company and holders of the majority of Registerable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) agreed to amend the definitions of “Filing Date” and “Effectiveness Date”, as such terms are defined in the Registration Rights Agreement, such that “Filing Date” shall mean 12 months after the Trigger Date and “Effectiveness Date” shall mean eighteen months after the Trigger Date. On September 24, 2012 the S1 Registration Statement was filed with the SEC. As of March 11, 2013 the Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the SEC.

Split-Off

Immediately following the closing of the Merger and the 2011 Private Placement, under the terms of an Agreement of Conveyance, Transfer and Assignment of Assets and Assumption of Obligations, the Company transferred substantially all of its pre-Merger assets and liabilities to its wholly owned subsidiary, Kopr Resources Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SplitCo”). Thereafter, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company transferred all of the outstanding capital stock of SplitCo to a former officer and director of the Company in exchange for cancellation of an aggregate of 22,510,919 shares of the Bullfrog Gold’s pre-merger common stock held by such person (the “Split-Off”), which left 11,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock held by persons who were stockholders of Bullfrog Gold prior to the Merger. Of these shares, 9,000,000 shares constituted the Company’s “public float” prior to the Merger that will continue to represent the shares of the Company’s common stock eligible for resale without further registration by the holders thereof, until such time as the applicability of Rule 144 or other exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the effectiveness of a further registration statement under the Securities Act, permits additional sales of issued shares.

As part of the reverse merger, the Company retained $13,383 of Bullfrog Gold’s pre-merger liabilities. In addition, Bullfrog Gold owed Standard Gold $201,363 at the merger date due to its collection of proceeds from a Standard Gold note payable. As a result of the merger, the combined $214,746 related to these balances has been recorded as a reduction in additional paid-in-capital. If the merger had occurred on the inception date of the Company, the net loss of the combined entity for all periods presented would not differ materially from what is already reported.

Common Stock Options

On September 30, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders adopted the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”). Under the 2011 Plan, options may be granted which are intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") or which are not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options thereunder. In addition, direct grants of stock or restricted stock may be awarded. The 2011 Plan has reserved 4,500,000 shares of common stock for issuance. All options issued are nonqualified stock options as amended on December 19, 2011. The modification to the option agreements increased the vesting period for only certain option agreements from one year to two years. The incremental cost associated with the differential in fair value at the modification date was not material. The option agreements are exercisable as follows in 20% increments:

Convertible Preferred Stock

In August 2011, the Board of Directors designated 5,000,000 shares of its Preferred Stock as Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of common stock at the option of the preferred holder. The Series A Preferred Stock in not entitled to receive dividends and does not possess redemption rights. The Company is prohibited from effecting the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock to the extent that, as a result of the conversion, the holder of such shares beneficially owns more than 4.99% (or, if this limitation is waived by the holder upon no less than 61 days prior notice to us, 9.99%) in the aggregate of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock calculated immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. The holders of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock are also entitled to certain liquidation preferences upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the business of the Company.

For the year ended December 31, 2012 there has been 1,586,539 shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted into common stock. As of March 11, 2013 an additional 2,312,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted into common stock, leaving a total of 687,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock remaining.

In October 2012, the Board of Directors designated 5,000,000 shares of its Preferred Stock as Series B Preferred Stock. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of common stock at the option of the preferred holder. The Series B Preferred Stock is not entitled to receive dividends and does not possess redemption rights. The Company is prohibited from effecting the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock to the extent that, as a result of the conversion, the holder of such shares beneficially owns more than 4.99% (or, if this limitation is waived by the holder upon no less than 61 days prior notice to us, 9.99%) in the aggregate of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock calculated immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. The holders of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock are also entitled to certain liquidation preferences upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the business of the Company.

2012 Private Placement

The Company sold an aggregate of 7,380,600 units in a 2012 Private Placement (the “2012 Private Placement”) at a per unit price of $0.25, with each unit consisting of (i) one share of the Company’s common stock (except that certain investors elected to receive in lieu of common stock, one share of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock) and (ii) a four year warrant to purchase shares of common stock equal to 100% of the number of shares purchased in the 2012 Private Placement at an exercise price of $0.35 per share. The 2012 Private Placement was completed in two closings (i) on November 19, 2012 the Company sold an aggregate of 5,380,600 units (which included 804,600 units for the conversion of debt and related interest and 276,000 units in exchange for certain legal fees) with gross proceeds to the Company of $1,345,150 (which included the conversion of debt of $200,000 plus $1,150 interest and $69,000 for certain legal fees) and (ii) on December 17, 2012 the Company sold an aggregate of 2,000,000 units with gross proceeds to the Company of $500,000. The Company sold a total of 5,376,000 units consisting of common shares and a total of 2,004,600 units consisting of Series B Preferred Stock, resulting in total proceeds of $1,845,150. The 2012 Private Placement includes the conversion of debt owed by the Company in the aggregate amount of $200,000 plus $1,150 interest which was converted on a dollar for dollar basis into the 2012 Private Placement. Net of converted debt and legal fees, the 2012 Private Placement generated cash proceeds of $1,575,000.

The Company has entered into registration rights agreements with the Investors, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file a “resale” registration statement with the SEC covering all shares of the Common Stock sold in the Offering and underlying any Warrants or Series B Preferred Stock, as well as Common Stock underlying the warrants issued to the placement agent(s) within 30 days (the “Filing Date”). The Company has agreed to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement from the effective date until all securities have been sold or are otherwise able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144. The Company has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective within 90 days (the “Effectiveness Deadline”). On February 12, 2013 the S1/A Registration Statement was filed with the SEC. As of March 11, 2013 the S-1/A Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the SEC.

NOTE 3 – DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In applying current accounting standards to the financial instruments issued in the 2011 Private Placement and the 2012 Private Placement, the Company first considered the classification of the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock under ASC 480 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and the Warrants under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging. The Series A and Series B Preferred Stock is perpetual preferred stock without redemption or dividend provisions, contingent or otherwise. Further, the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into a fixed number of shares of Common Stock with adjustments to the conversion price solely associated with equity restructuring events such a stock splits and recapitalization. Generally redemption provisions that provide for the mandatory payment of cash to the Investor to settle the contract or certain provisions that cause the number of linked shares of Common Stock to vary result in liability classification; and, in some instances, classification outside of stockholders’ equity. There being no such provisions associated with the Series A or Series B Preferred Stock, it is classified as a component of stockholders’ equity.

F-13

The warrants were also evaluated for purposes of classification. The warrants issued in the 2011 Private Placement and 2012 Private Placement contains a feature that is not consistent with the concept of stockholders’ equity. The exercise price of the warrants are subject to adjustment upon the issuance of common stock or common share linked contracts at prices below the contractual exercise prices. The 2011 Private Placement warrants were subject to price adjustment until October 1, 2012, therefore the 2011 Private Placement warrants have been reclassified to stockholders’ equity as of October 1, 2012. The 2012 Private Placement warrants price adjustment expires four years after the date of issuance (the “Expiration Date”). Current accounting standards provide that such provisions are not consistent with the concept of stockholders’ equity. As a result, the 2012 Private Placement warrants require classification in liability as derivative warrants. Derivative warrants are carried initially at fair value (up to the value of cash received) and subsequently at fair value with changes in fair value reflected in income.

The derivative warrants were calculated using Black-Scholes valuation technique. Significant inputs into this technique are as follows:

2011 Private Placement	9/30/11	12/31/11	10/1/12
Fair market value of common stock	$0.60	$0.95	$0.18
Exercise price	$0.60	$0.60	$0.60
Term (1)	3 Years	2.75 Years	2.0 Years
Volatility range (2)	68.5%	63.9%	69.7%
Risk-free rate (3)	0.50%	0.50%	0.25%

2012 Private Placement	11/19/12	12/17/12	12/31/12
Fair market value of common stock	$0.46	$0.32	$0.37
Exercise price	$0.35	$0.35	$0.35
Term (1)	4 Years	4 Years	(4)
Volatility range (2)	68.7%	68.6%	68.3%
Risk-free rate (3)	0.33%	0.37%	0.36%

(1)

The term is the remaining years until expiration of warrants.

(2)

The Company does not have a trading market value upon which to base its forward-looking volatility. Accordingly, the Company selected a peer company that provided a reasonable basis upon which to calculate volatility.

(3)

The risk-free rate used represents the yield on zero coupon US Government Securities with a period to maturity consistent with the interval described in (2), above.

(4)

The remaining term for the 2012 Private Placement with a November 19, 2012 closing date was 3.88 years, and the December 17, 2012 closing date was 3.96 years.

Warrants contain limitations on exercise, including the limitation that the holders may not convert their warrants to the extent that upon exercise the holder, together with its affiliates, would own in excess of 4.99% of our outstanding shares of common stock (subject to an increase upon at least 61-days’ notice by the subscriber to us, of up to 9.99%).

The second classification-related accounting consideration related to the possibility that the conversion option embedded in the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock may require classification outside of stockholders’ equity. Generally, an embedded feature in a hybrid financial instrument (such as the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock) that both meets the definition of a derivative financial instrument and is not clearly and closely related to the host contract in term of risks would require bifurcation and accounting under derivative standards. The embedded conversion option is a feature that embodies risks of equity. The Company has concluded that the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock is a contract that affords solely equity risks.

F-14

NOTE 4 – NOTE PAYABLE

In applying current accounting standards to the warrants issued in the Facility with RMB, the Company considered the warrants under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging. Under these standards the warrants would qualify as equity and using the Black Scholes pricing model the following assumptions were made to estimate the fair value of the warrants:

	December 10, 2012
Fair market value of common stock	$0.35
Exercise price	$0.35
Term (1)	3 Years
Volatility range (2)	65.8%
Risk-free rate (3)	0.33%

(1)

The term is the remaining years until expiration of warrants.

(2)

The Company does not have a trading market value upon which to base its forward-looking volatility. Accordingly, the Company selected peer companies that provided a reasonable basis upon which to calculate volatility.

(3)

The risk-free rate used represents the yield on zero coupon US Government Securities with a period to maturity consistent with the interval described in (2), above.

The fair value of the warrants were calculated to be $1,063,592 and are classified as deferred financing fees that will be amortized for 24 months from the Closing Date of the RMB Facility.

NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES

The effective income tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 consisted of the following:

	2011	2010
Federal statutory income tax rate	(35.0%)	(35.0%)
Other	0.57%	(0.00%)
Permanent differences	0.02%	0.00%
Increase in valuation allowance	34.41%	35.00%
Net income tax provision (benefit)	-	-

The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

NOTE 7 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On January 30, 2013, the Company received $316,856 from RMB as part of the Facility Agreement.

On February 4, 2013, the Company sold an aggregate of 1,800,060 units (the “Units”, “February 2013 Private Placement”) with gross proceeds to the Company of $450,015 to certain accredited investors (the “Investors”) pursuant to a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”). The proceeds from this offering will be used primarily for a future investor relations campaign. Each Unit was sold for a purchase price of $0.25 per Unit and consisted of: (i) one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) and (ii) a four-year warrant (the “Warrants”) to purchase one hundred (100%) percent of the number of shares of Common Stock purchased at an exercise price of $0.35 per share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events such as stock splits and dividends. In connection with the private placement, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,800,060 shares of its Common Stock. The shares were issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933 since no general solicitation or advertising was conducted by us in connection with the offering of any of the shares, all shares purchased in the offering were restricted in accordance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act and each of these shareholders were either accredited as defined in Rule 501 (a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act or sophisticated as defined in Rule 506(b)(2)(ii) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

The Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis if at any time there is no effective registration statement within 120 days after the closing date of the private placement covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants. The Warrants contains limitations on the holder’s ability to exercise the Warrant in the event such exercise causes the holder to beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock, subject to a discretionary increase in such limitation by the holder to 9.99% upon 61 days’ notice.

The Company paid placement agent fees of $12,000 in cash to a placement agent in connection with the sale of the Units. The placement agent also received Warrants to acquire 48,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock.

The Company has entered into registration rights agreements with the Investors, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file a “resale” registration statement with the SEC covering all shares of the Common Stock sold in the Offering and underlying any Warrants, as well as Common Stock underlying the warrants issued to the placement agent(s) on or prior to April 4, 2013 (the “Filing Date”). The Company has agreed to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement from the effective date until all securities have been sold or are otherwise able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144. The Company has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective within 60 days (the “Effectiveness Deadline”).

The Company is obligated to pay to Investors a fee of 1% per month of the Investors’ investment, payable in cash, for every thirty (30) day period up to a maximum of 6%, (i) following the Filing Date that the registration statement has not been filed and (ii) following the Effectiveness Deadline that the registration statement has not been declared effective; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to pay any such liquidated damages if the Company is unable to fulfill its registration obligations as a result of rules, regulations, positions or releases issued or actions taken by the SEC pursuant to its authority with respect to “Rule 415”, provided the Company registers at such time the maximum number of shares of common stock permissible upon consultation with the staff of the SEC.

On March 6, 2013, the Company received $242,175 from RMB as part of the Facility Agreement.
