Brookmount Explorations Inc.
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 NATURE OF CONTINUED OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Company is an exploration stage company. The Company is incorporated in Nevada and was organized for the purpose of acquiring, exploring and developing mineral properties. The recoverability of amounts from properties acquired will be dependent upon discovery of economically recoverable reserves, confirmation of the Companys interest in the underlying property, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to satisfy the expenditure requirements under the property agreement and to complete the development of the property and upon future profitable production.
In December 2006, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, Brookmount Peru SAC, in Peru. As at February 28, 2009, this subsidiary is inactive and has no assets or liabilities
Going Concern
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a working capital deficiency of $644,139 at February 28, 2009 (November 30, 2008 - $593,743) and has incurred losses since inception of $5,256,186 and further losses are anticipated in the development of its mineral properties raising substantial doubt as to the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital to fund ongoing exploration and development and ultimately on generating future profitable operations. Management plans to continue funding the Companys operations with advances, other debt sources and further equity placements.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Mineral Property
The Company is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized in accordance with EITF 04-2 when management has determined that probable future benefits consisting of a contribution to future cash inflows, have been identified and adequate financial resources are available or are expected to be available as required to meet the terms of property acquisition and budgeted exploration and development expenditures.
Mineral property acquisition costs are expensed as incurred if the criteria for capitalization is not met. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized. As of the date of these financial statements, the Company has incurred only acquisition and exploration costs which have been expensed. To date the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign Currency Translation
The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation, foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated into their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the year. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Financial instruments are recorded at fair value in accordance with FASB Statement No. 157.
Environmental Costs
Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations, and which do not contribute to current or future revenue generation, are expensed. Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable, and the cost can be reasonably estimated. Generally, the timing of these accruals coincides with the earlier of completion of a feasibility study or the Companys commitments to plan of action based on the then known facts.

Income Taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
At February 28, 2009 a full deferred tax asset valuation allowance has been provided and no deferred tax asset benefit has been recorded.
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Dilutive loss per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of the Company. Because the Company does not have any potentially dilutive securities, basic loss per share is equal to dilutive loss per share.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options. Accordingly no stock-based compensation has been recorded to date.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. This Statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling (minority) interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that SFAS No. 160 will have on its financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for the Companys fiscal year beginning December 1, 2009. Management has determined that the accounting standard will have no effect on the Company.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141R, Business Combinations, SFAS 141R replaces SFAS 141. The statement retains the purchase method of accounting for acquisitions, but requires a number of changes, including changes in the way assets and liabilities are recognized. Management has determined that the accounting standard will have no effect on the Company.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entitys financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 161 on its financial statements.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
In April 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (FSP FAS 142-3) which amends the factors an entity should consider in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (FAS No. 142). FSP FAS 142-3 applies to intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of assets and intangible assets acquired in both business combinations and asset acquisitions. It removes a provision under FAS No. 142, requiring an entity to consider whether a contractual renewal or extension clause can be accomplished without substantial cost or material modifications of the existing terms and conditions associated with the asset. Instead, FSP FAS 142-3 requires that an entity consider its own experience in renewing similar arrangements. An entity would consider market participant assumptions regarding renewal if no such relevant experience exists. FSP FAS 142-3 is effective for year ends beginning after December 15, 2008 with early adoption prohibited We have not yet determined the effect, if any, of the adoption of this statement on our financial condition or results of operations.
In June 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FSP No. EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted In Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities (FSP EITF 03-6-1). FSP EITF 03-6-1 concludes that unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities, and thus, should be included in the two-class method of computing earnings per share (EPS). FSP EITF 03-6-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. Early application of EITF 03-06-1 is prohibited. It also requires that all prior-period EPS data be adjusted retrospectively. We have not yet determined the effect, if any, of the adoption of this statement on our financial condition or results of operations
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement under Statement 13 (FSP 157-1) and FASB Staff position 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (FSP 157-2). FSP 157-1 amends SFAS 157 to remove certain leasing transactions from its scope. FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually), until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted SFAS 157 effective December 1, 2008 for all financial assets and liabilities required. The adoption of SFAS 157 was not material to the Companys financial position or results of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, (SFAS 159 which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 159 is an elective standard which permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates. Subsequent unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be reported in operations. The Company has not elected the fair value option for any assets or liabilities under SFAS 159.

NOTE 3 ADVANCES
On May 13, 2005, the Company signed a Letter of Agreement with a private corporation Jemma Resources Corp. (Jemma) to acquire 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Jemma. Significant terms contained in the Letter of Agreement were the appointment of two of Jemmas directors to the Companys board of directors, Jemma completing a debt financing of $15 million, the Companys right to elect not to proceed with the transaction resulting in all advances made to Jemma by the Company being refundable, and the replacement of the Letter of Agreement with a binding contract. The purchase price consisted of 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company, 3,000,000 share purchase warrants at $1.50 per warrant exercisable within 24 months from the date of the agreement and approximately CDN $75,000 in refundable advances to secure an extension for the option to purchase a mineral property and for operating costs. During May 2005 two directors of Jemma were appointed to the Companys board of directors. During the year ended November 30, 2005, the Company advanced $43,617 (CDN $54,400) pursuant to the Letter of Agreement. At November 30, 2005 the Letter of Agreement had not been replaced by a binding contract and Jemma had not raised the debt financing as contemplated in the Letter of Agreement. Accordingly the Companys management decided not to proceed with this transaction. The decision was as a result of the Companys due diligence and Jemmas inability to raise the agreed financing. As a result, the advances totaling $43,617 became refundable pursuant to the terms of the Letter of Agreement. As of February 28, 2009, the Company has not received the funds from Jemma. Due to delays in collecting this advance the Company has fully provided against this advance during the year ended November 30, 2006.
During the year ending November 30, 2006, $150,000 was withdrawn from the Companys bank account by a former director of the Company. The former director was not an authorized signatory on the Companys bank account and had not been granted any such authority to withdraw the funds by the Companys Board of Directors. Upon completion of an investigation, the Company determined that the former director had not used the funds for corporate purposes. The Company took legal action against the former director in an effort to recover the $150,000. As a result, the Supreme Court of British Columbia ordered the former director to pay the Company a sum of USD $173,700 plus accrued interest of USD $5,341 and legal costs of $20,959. The sum of USD $200,000 was received by the Company in May 2008 and included in other income.
On June 29, 2006, a former director of the Company commenced legal action against the Company and its director. The former director claimed damages in excess of $5,000,000 for alleged breach of contract, libel, fraud, intentional deceit, wrongful conduct and emotional distress. On February 12, 2007 the United States District Court issued a notice of dismissal. The legal action against the Company was dismissed in its entirety.

All statements, other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding industry prospects and future results of operations or financial position, made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (" Report ") are forward looking. The words " believes ," " anticipates ," " estimates ," " expects ," and words of similar import, constitute " forward-looking statements ." While we believe in the veracity of all statements made herein, forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by us, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies and known and unknown risks. As a result of such risks, our actual results could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, our company. We will not necessarily update information if any forward-looking statement later turns out to be inaccurate. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including risks and uncertainties set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as in other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (" SEC ").
The following information has not been audited. You should read this information in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and related notes to the financial statements included in this report.
Plan of Operations
Our plan of operations for the near future is to complete a secondary exploration program on the Mercedes 100 property. We anticipate that this program will cost approximately $250,000.
In addition, we anticipate spending $60,000 on professional fees, $120,000 on salaries and wages, $120,000 on consulting fees, $40,000 on travel costs, $40,000 on promotional expenses and $40,000 on other administrative expenses in the next 12 months.
Total expenditures over the next 12 months are therefore expected to be $670,000. We will not be able to proceed with either exploration program, or meet our administrative expense requirements, without additional financing.
We will require additional funding in order to proceed with exploration on the Mercedes 100 property and to cover administrative expenses. We anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock or from director loans. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing or loans.
We are the beneficial owner of a 100% interest in the Mercedes 100 property, consisting of six mineral claims, as follows:
Claim Name | Claim Number | Claim Area (Hectares) |
Mercedes 100 | C-08020145X011 | 450.00 |
Celeste | C-010151600 | 298.84 |

Nuevo Herraje Cuatro | C-010154100 | 996.96 |
Nueva Charo | C-010051101 | 446.93 |
Subsequently we acquired an additional claim consisting of 500 hectares at the Mercedes 100 property.
On May 25, 2006, we entered into an option agreement (the Agreement) to acquire an option to purchase 100% of the issued share capital of 722161 B.C. Ltd (722161 BC) on the following terms:

4.
We must incur exploration expenses of $1,000,000 over a period of five years from the date of the Agreement. 722161 BC has a 56% interest in mineral claims located in the Rock Creek area of British Columbia, Canada.
On March 31, 2008, a formal notice of default was issued by 722161 BC. We had 30 days to cure the default, at which time the agreement terminated except as to our obligations prior to the default of approximately $80,000, which we have recorded as a liability. We did not cure the default and the agreement terminated on April 30, 2008.

Item 4:
Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls
Our management evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of our fiscal quarter on February 28, 2009. This evaluation was conducted by Peter Flueck our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer).
Disclosure controls are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information that we are required to disclose in the reports we file pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, but no absolute, assurance that the objectives of a control system are met.
Further, any control system reflects limitations on resources, and the benefits of a control system must be considered relative to its costs. These limitations also include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of a control. A design of a control system is also based upon certain assumptions about potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.
Conclusions
Based upon his evaluation of our controls, our chief executive officer and principal accounting officer has concluded that, subject to the limitations noted above, the disclosure controls are effective providing reasonable assurance that material information relating to us is made known to management on a timely

basis during the period when our reports are being prepared. There were no changes in our internal controls that occurred during the quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls.
