PART I.


Item 1.

Business.


In this report, references to “we,” “us,” “our” and/or the “Company” refer to Gentor Resources, Inc., a Florida corporation.


Background


We are a Florida corporation formed under the name of Gentor Resources, Inc. on March 24, 2005. We have one (1) wholly owned subsidiary, Gentor Idaho, Inc., an Idaho corporation (“Gentor Idaho”), which was formed on June 28, 2007.


We are an exploration stage company (as such term is defined in Securities Act Industry Guide 7(a)(4)(i)) which means that we are engaged in the search for mineral deposits (reserves) which are not either in the development or production stage. Our corporate strategy is to create shareholder value by acquiring and developing highly prospective mineral properties in the United States and internationally.


Since our inception, we have acquired rights to mineral properties in (i) the state of Montana (the “Montana Project”), (ii) the state of Idaho (the “Idaho Project”) and (iii) the Nunavut Territory, which is located in the eastern Canadian Arctic (the “Nunavut Project”). As of the date of this Report, we have terminated our rights to explore the Montana Project and the Nunavut Project, but we still maintain our rights to explore the Idaho Project, which is a molybdenum-tungsten project located in east-central Idaho. Please see the information under the heading “Item 2. Properties” of this Report for a detailed description of the Idaho Project.


Molybdenum is a refractory metal with very unique properties. Molybdenum, when added to plain carbon and low alloy steels, increases strength, corrosion resistance and high temperature properties of the alloy. The major applications of molybdenum containing plain and low alloy steels are automotive body panels, construction steel and oil and gas pipelines. When added to stainless steels, molybdenum imparts specialized corrosion resistance in severe corrosive environments while improving strength. The major applications of stainless steels are in industrial chemical process plants, desalinization plants, nuclear reactor cooling systems and environmental pollution abatement. When added to super alloy steels, molybdenum dramatically improves high temperature strength, creep resistance and resistance to oxidation in such applications as advanced aerospace engine critical components. The effects of molybdenum additions to steels are not readily duplicated by other elements and as such are not significantly impacted by substitution of other materials; as such, Molybdenum has few substitutes. Other uses for Molybdenum include fuel desulfurization catalysts, lubricants and alloy element in gas turbine engine components.


Registered Offering on Form SB-2


On November 13, 2006 (the “Effective Date”), the SEC declared our registration statement on Form SB-2 (the “Registration Statement”) effective and assigned  file number 333-130386 to the Registration Statement.


On November 14, 2006, we commenced an offering (the “Offering”) of up to 5,000,000 shares (after giving effect to the March 2007 Split, as such “March 2007 Stock Split” is defined below) of our common stock, at a price per share of $0.20 (after giving effect to the March 2007 Split) of our common stock, for an aggregate Offering price of $1,000,000.


On November 16, 2006, the Company sold all 5,000,000 shares (after giving effect to the March 2007 Split) of our common stock and we received aggregate Offering proceeds of $1,000,000. All of the net Offering proceeds have been used in accordance with the disclosures set forth in (i) our Form 10Q-SB for the quarterly period ending September 30, 2006 which was filed with the SEC on December 29, 2006, (ii) our Form 10K-SB for the year ending December 31, 2006 which was filed with the SEC on April 17, 2007, (iii) our Form 10Q-SB for the quarterly period ending March 31, 2007 which was filed with the SEC on May 15, 2007, and (iv) our Form 10Q-SB for the quarterly period ending June 30, 2007 which was filed with the SEC on August 14, 2007.


Stock Split


On February 26, 2007, the board of director (the “Board of Directors”) of the Company executed a written action by unanimous written consent of the directors in lieu of a special meeting of the directors (the “Director Action”) which authorized the Company to amend and restate its Articles of Incorporation to effectuate a 25 for 1 forward split (the “March 2007 Split”) of our common stock and increase the authorized shares of common stock from 1,500,000 to 37,500,000. The Director Action was approved by the holders of a majority of our common stock at such time by a written action of the shareholders in lieu of a special meeting of the shareholders (the “Shareholder Action”) and on March 1, 2007, the Company filed its amended and restated articles of incorporation (the “Restated Articles”) which provided that upon the filing of the Restated Articles with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida, each one (1) share of the $0.0001 par value common stock of the Company outstanding as of the close of business on February 28, 2007 (the “Record Date”) was to be divided into twenty five (25) shares of the $0.0001 par value common stock of the Company.  


Our Business


We are an exploration stage company (as such term is defined in Securities Act Industry Guide 7(a)(4)(i)) which means that we are engaged in the search for mineral deposits (reserves) which are not either in the development or production stage.


Mineral exploration is a research and development activity that does not produce a specific product. Successful exploration often results in increased project value that can be realized through the optioning or selling of the claimed site to larger companies.  As such, we aim to acquire properties which we believe have potential to host economic concentrations of minerals, particularly gold, molybdenum, nickle and copper.  These acquisitions have and may take the form of unpatented mining claims on federal land, or leasing claims, or private property owned by others.


The Idaho Project, the Company’s only current mineral property, is without known reserves and all of our exploration activities with respect to the Idaho Project to date have been exploratory in nature. There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists at the Idaho Project and further exploration beyond the scope of our planned exploration activities will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic feasibility of the mining of the Idaho Project can be determined. Moreover, there is no assurance that further exploration will result in a final evaluation that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists at the Idaho Project. We do not have sufficient financing to undertake the continued exploration of the Idaho Project at the present time and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing. As such, we intend to raise additional capital and/or seek a joint venture partner to finance the further exploration of the Idaho Project.


If we are able to raise additional capital and/or attract and secure a joint venture partner who can provide the additional financing necessary to enable us to continue our exploration activities, we plan to continue exploration of the Idaho Project for so long as the results of the geological exploration that we complete indicate that further exploration of the Idaho Project is recommended. All exploration activities at the Idaho Project which have been completed to date are preliminary exploration activities. Advanced exploration activities, including the completion of comprehensive infill drilling programs, will be necessary before we are able to complete any feasibility studies on the Idaho Project. If our exploration activities result in an indication that the Idaho Project contains potentially commercial exploitable quantities of minerals, then we would attempt to complete feasibility studies on such property to assess whether commercial exploitation of the property would be commercially feasible. There is no assurance that commercial exploitation of the Idaho Project  would be commercially feasible even if our initial exploration programs show evidence of significant mineralization.


If we determine not to proceed with further exploration of the Idaho Project due to results from geological exploration that indicate that further exploration is not recommended, then we will attempt to acquire additional interests in new mineral resource properties. There is no assurance that we will be able to acquire an interest in a new property that merits further exploration. If we were to acquire an interest in a new property, then our plan would be to conduct resource exploration of the new property, to the extent that we have available resources to conduct such exploration. In any event, we anticipate that our acquisition of a new property and any exploration activities that we would undertake will be subject to our achieving additional financing, of which there is no assurance.


Competition


There is aggressive competition within the mineral exploration industry in connection with the discovery, acquisition and development of properties considered to have commercial potential.  As a young mineral exploration stage company with a limited operating history, we compete with other startup and established mineral resource exploration companies for financing and for the acquisition of new mineral properties. Many of the mineral resource exploration companies with whom we compete have greater financial and technical resources than those available to us. Accordingly, our competitors may be able to spend greater amounts on acquisitions of mineral properties of merit, on the exploration of their mineral properties and on the development of their mineral properties. In addition, our competitors may be able to afford more geological expertise in the targeting and exploration of mineral properties. This competition could result in our competitors having mineral properties of greater quality and interest to prospective investors who may finance additional exploration and development. This competition could adversely impact on our ability to achieve the financing necessary for us to conduct further exploration of the Idaho Project and/or other mineral properties which we may otherwise acquire.


We also compete with other startup and established mineral exploration companies for financing from a limited number of investors that are prepared to make investments in mineral exploration companies. The presence of these competing mineral exploration companies may adversely impact on our ability to raise additional capital in order to fund our exploration programs if investors are of the view that investments in competitors are more attractive based on the merit of the mineral properties under investigation and the price of the investment offered to investors.


In addition to the fact that there is aggressive competition within the mineral exploration industry, the mining industry, in general, is a speculative venture involving substantial risk that relies on numerous untested assumptions and variables.  Many exploration programs do not result in the discovery of mineralization, and any mineralization discovered may not be of sufficient quantity or quality to be  profitably mined.  We are unable to provide any assurance that a ready market will exist for the sale of any mineralization which might otherwise be discovered and/or extracted from the Idaho Project and/or any other mineral properties which we might otherwise acquire. Furthermore, similar to other mineral exploration companies, including our competitors, we are also subject to many unforseen risks and expenses incident to exploring and developing mineral properties such as delays in governmental or environmental permitting, changes in the legislation governing the mining industry that might alter our ability to conduct our operations as planned, the availability of reasonably priced insurance products, unexpected construction costs necessary to create and maintain a production facility, and normal fluctuations in the general markets for the minerals and/or metals to be produced.  These risks and expenses, while beyond our control, can materially adversely affect our business and cause our business to fail. Moreover, the search for valuable minerals involves numerous hazards and risks, such as cave-ins, environmental pollution liability, and personal injuries.  We currently have no insurance against the risks of mineral exploration, and we do not expect to obtain any such insurance in the foreseeable future, other than the liability insurance which we might otherwise be contractually required to maintain. If we were to incur such a hazard or risk, the costs of overcoming same may exceed our ability to do so, in which event we could be required to liquidate all our assets and cease our business operations.


Government Regulations


General:


Any and all operations at Idaho Project will be subject to various federal and state laws and regulations in the United States which govern prospecting, development, mining, production, exports, taxes, labor standards, occupational health, waste disposal, protection of the environment, mine safety, hazardous substances and other matters. We will be required to obtain those licenses, permits or other authorizations currently required to conduct exploration and other programs. There are no current orders relating to us and/or the Idaho Project with respect to the foregoing laws and regulations. If we escalate our exploration activities at the Idaho Project, it is reasonable to expect that compliance with various regulations will increase our costs. Such compliance may include feasibility studies on the impact of our proposed operations to land, water and biological resources, costs associated with minimizing surface impact, water treatment and protection, reclamation activities, including rehabilitation of various sites, on-going efforts at alleviating the mining impact on wildlife and permits or bonds as may be required to ensure our compliance with applicable regulations. It is possible that the costs and delays associated with such compliance could become so prohibitive that we may decide to not proceed with exploration, development, or mining operations on the Idaho Project. We are not presently aware of any specific material environmental constraints affecting our Idaho Project that would preclude the economic development or operation of the Idaho Project.


U.S. Federal Environmental Laws:


The U.S. Forest Service (the “USFS”) and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (the “USBLM”) require that mining operations on lands subject to their respective regulations obtain an approved plan of operations that is subject to the Federal Land Policy Management Act, the Code of Federal Regulations and a review of environmental impacts under the National Environmental Policy Act. Any significant modifications to an approved plan of operations would require the submission of amendments and the completion of an environmental assessment or an Environmental Impact Statement prior to the approval of any such modification to a plan of operations. Generally, mining companies must post a bond or other surety to guarantee the cost of post mining reclamation. These requirements could add significant additional cost and delays to any mining project undertaken by us.


The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency administers the Clean Water Act.  Any discharge of industrial waters or pollutants into any waters of the Unites States must be permitted under a National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (the “NPDES”) permit.  Mining companies seeking to discharge mine or mineral process water into waters of the United States must first obtain an NPDES permit, which may contain stipulations regarding water treatment and monitoring. These requirements could add significant additional cost and delays to any mining project undertaken by us.


Under the U.S. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, mining companies may incur costs for generating, transporting, treating, storing, or disposing of hazardous waste, as well as for closure and post-closure maintenance once they have completed mining activities on a property. Any future mining operations at the Idaho Project may produce air emissions, including fugitive dust and other air pollutants, from stationary equipment, storage facilities, and the use of mobile sources such as trucks and heavy construction equipment which are subject to review, monitoring and/or control requirements under the Federal Clean Air Act and state air quality laws. Permitting rules may impose limitations on our production levels or create additional capital expenditures for pollution control in order to comply with the rules.


The U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, (“CERCLA”) also imposes strict joint and several liability on parties associated with releases or threats of releases of hazardous substances. Those liable groups include, among others, the current owners and operators of facilities which release hazardous substances into the environment and past owners and operators of properties who owned such properties at the time the disposal of the hazardous substances occurred. This liability could include the cost of removal or remediation of the release and damages for injury to the surrounding property. We cannot predict the potential for future CERCLA liability with respect to the Idaho Project or their respective surrounding areas.


Idaho Laws:


Mining in the State of Idaho is subject to federal, state and local law. Three types of laws are of particular importance to the Idaho Project are those affecting land ownership and mining rights, those regulating mining operations, and those dealing with environmental protection.  Mineral exploration activities are not regulated by the State of Idaho. As such, we may conduct exploration activities on private properties without approval by any state government agency. However, activities that may impact streams or stream beds or banks are regulated by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality.  Therefore, in order to expand our exploration activities at the Idaho Project onto Federal land or across Patterson creek, we will be required to secure permits for bridging Patterson creek, maintain approval to work on such Federal Lands from the USBLM, and secure and/or maintain any other authorizations required to conduct our exploration program.


Anticipated Costs and Effects of Compliance With Government Regulations


If we continue with our exploration activities at the Idaho Project, we anticipate that our primary near term cost of compliance with applicable environmental laws is likely to be less than $10,000.  These costs will be primarily the costs of reclamation of disturbances on Federal Lands administered by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management and/or the U.S. Forest Service, and the provision of bonds to ensure that the reclamation is done to the satisfaction of the foregoing governmental agencies.


As of the date of this Report, our exploration activities with respect to the Idaho Project have been confined to private lands occupied by us under a lease/option to purchase agreement, as more specifically described below in Part I, Item 2 of this Report in the section entitled “Properties.” Since out exploration activities have been confined to private lands, our operations do not require USBLM or USFS permits and are not governed by their regulations. In the event we expand our exploration activities, we have obtained approval to drill additional holes on USBLM land on both sides of Patterson creek, but we have not yet accessed those sites.  Access to these lands does require trespass on a USBLM administered public road.  Permission by the USBLM to use this road has already been received by us. Our use of this road could result in a much higher than normal level of traffic.  Higher levels of traffic could increase the potential for accidents, and could result in increased sediment being generated and possibly entering the adjacent Patterson Creek.  To preclude these possibilities, the USBLM has granted us permission to conduct routine maintenance on this road, consisting of improving sight distances, constructing a cross fall away from the creek and surfacing the road where possible with rock to minimize erosion and filter sediment.


Furthermore, in anticipation of future requirements for a water discharge permit, we have applied for a State of Idaho permit to discharge water to alluvium on land controlled by us. In order to obtain the foregoing permits, various levels of government approval are required, including but not limited to: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”), the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the USBLM, the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality, and Lemhi County.  Our permit application has been circulated to these agencies for approval. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has indicated that their approval for the project is not required. The approvals from the other foregoing governmental agencies are pending. In order to meet the water quality standards established by the State of Idaho, a water treatment facility will have to be designed, constructed and operated in accordance with the instructions from the consulting engineers hired by us for these purposes

Idaho Project


The Idaho Project is a molybdenum-tungsten project located in east-central Idaho and is sometimes referred to herein as the “IMA Mine.”


Location and Access


The IMA Mine is located on the western edge of Lemhi County in east Central Idaho, which is near the major communities of Salmon and Challis.  U.S. Highway 93 runs between Salmon and Challis.  Access to the IMA mine is obtained from Highway 93 is as follows:  At Mile Post 264 (which is approximately 18 miles North East of Challis), turn south on the paved Pahsimeroi Road (a.k.a. “Farm to Market Road”), then proceed southerly 24 miles to the Hamlet of Patterson, then turn East on the Patterson Creek Road (a 4x4 access road) and proceed for 1 mile to the IMA Mine.


Nature and Extent of the Company’s Rights to the Idaho Project


Effective as of March 1, 2007, Bardswich LLC, an Idaho limited liability company (“Bardswich LLC”), an entity that is owned and controlled by Lloyd J. Bardswich, who is the president, treasurer, chief financial officer and a director of the Company, and IMA-1, LLC, a Montana limited liability company (the “Idaho Claim Owner”) entered into that certain Mineral Lease Agreement and Option to Purchase (the “Idaho Option Agreement”) which relates to twenty one (21) patented mining claims (the “IMA Mine”) located over approximately 376 acres of real property and four other parcels of approximately 216 acres in Lemhi County, Idaho (collectively, the “Optioned Properties”).  In accordance with the terms of the Idaho Option Agreement, concurrently with the execution of the Idaho Option Agreement, Bardswich LLC paid the Idaho Claim Owner $40,000 in cash as the first Advanced Minimum Royalty Payment (as such term is defined herein).


On  July 23, 2007, Bardswich LLC and Gentor Idaho entered into that certain assignment agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”) whereby Bardswich LLC assigned all of its rights, title and interest in and to the Idaho Option Agreement in exchange for $40,000 in cash and 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Idaho Option Agreement grants the Company (through Gentor Idaho) the exclusive right (the “Exploration and Mineral Right”) to enter the Optioned Properties (and thus the IMA Mine) for the purpose of exploring and developing  the Optioned Properties (and thus the IMA Mine), as well as, removing and selling for our own account any and all minerals, mineral substances, metals ore bearing materials and rocks of any kind. The Idaho Option Agreement also grants the Company an option (the “Option Right”) to purchase the Idaho Claim Owner’s rights to the Optioned Properties, including but not limited to the IMA Mine, for a total purchase price of $5,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”), excluding therefrom the right of the Idaho Claim Owner to receive a three  percent (3%) royalty on net revenue generated form the sale of any molybdenum, copper, lead, and zinc recovered from the IMA Mine and a five percent (5%) royalty on the net revenue generated from the sale of all other ores, minerals, or other products recovered from the Optioned Properties (collectively, the “Net Smelter Return Royalties”). The duration of the Idaho Option Agreement is indefinite so long as the Company makes the necessary scheduled payments of advanced minimum royalty payments (each an “Advanced Minimum Royalty Payment”)  under the Idaho Option Agreement. Bardswich LLC made an initial payment of $40,000 in cash to the Idaho Claim Owner upon execution of the Idaho Option Agreement and the Company made an additional payment of $60,000 to the Idaho Claim Owner on the six month anniversary date of the signing of the original Option Agreement as well as another additional payment of $100,000 during the month of March 2008. According to the terms of the Idaho Option Agreement, additional payments of (i) $100,000 in cash is due on or before the second and third anniversary date of the Idaho Option Agreement and (ii) $200,000 in cash is due on or before the fourth anniversary date thereafter until the purchase price is paid or the Idaho Option Agreement is terminated or cancelled. However, on March 1, 2009, the second anniversary date of the Idaho Option Agreement, the Idaho Claim Owner agreed to accept four equal payments of $25,000 on each of March 1, May 1, July 1, and September1, 2009 in lieu of the $100,000 payment that was due in full on March 1, 2009.  The initial foregoing $25,000 payment that was due on March 1, 2009 has been paid to the Idaho Claim Owner. To the extent that the Company makes any Advanced Minimum Royalty Payments, the Company is entitled to receive a corresponding credit against any required Net Smelter Returns Royalties that are otherwise required to be paid to the Idaho Claim Owner under the Idaho Option Agreement.  Moreover, the Company is also entitled to receive a credit equal to all Advanced Minimum Royalty Payments and payments of Net Smelter Return Royalties against the Purchase Price. In the event the Idaho Claim Owner notifies the Company that the Company has breached a term, condition or covenant of the Idaho Option Agreement (other than the payment of monies due and payable under the Idaho Option Agreement), then the Company has at least sixty (60) days (twenty (20) days for any monetary payment obligation) to cure any such breach.  If the Company cannot cure, or begin to cure, any such breach within the cure period, then the Idaho Claim Owner can terminate the Idaho Option Agreement. The Company also has (i) the right to terminate the Idaho Option Agreement at any time and (ii) the right to assign all or any portion of the Idaho Option Agreement to any third party.


Also, on July 3, 2007, Gentor Idaho, acquired fee simple title to a 75 acre parcel of land (the “75 Acre Parcel”) located in Lemhi County, Idaho from Richard Bergeman and Victoria Bergeman for a purchase price of $169,000.  The 75 Acre Parcel also includes 72 miner’s inches of water rights. The 75 Acre Parcel is adjacent to the Optioned Properties.


At or around the same time that the Company, through Gentor Idaho, acquired the 75 Acre Parcel, through a staking program, the Company also acquired 114 lode claims and 5 placer claims on federal lands (“the Staked Claims”) located in Lemhi County, Idaho. The Company is required to pay $14,875 per annum ($125 per Staked Claim) to the United States Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management in order to retain the Staked Claims.

History of Operations


The IMA Mine related to an underground mining operation that closed in 1957.  Prior to its closure, the IMA Mine was the fifth largest United Stated producer of tungsten, having mined over 500,000 tons of ore between 1937 and 1952.  The lowest level of the IMA Mine intersected the top of a molybdenum-bearing intrusive.  From 1978 to 1981, Inspiration Development Corporation (“Inspiration”), a subsidiary of Anglo-American Corporation, entered into agreements relating to the Optioned Properties in 1978 and spent Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) on the Optioned Properties to ascertain the commercial viability of the tungsten potential. The work performed by Inspiration included (i) a drilling program from underground and the surface, (ii) rehabilitation of the “D” level of the IMA Mine and (iii) completion of basic underground development for extraction of the tungsten ore.  


Present Condition of the IMA Mine


We have entered into the D level and the Zero level of the IMA Mine. The D level is in good condition and the Zero Level is in poor to fair condition.  The estimated costs to secure the safety of both levels to the extent necessary to satisfy general Mine Safety and Health Administration (the “MSHA”) regulations have not yet been determined.  Access to the lowest level (-375) is blocked by fill.  We have not attempted to enter the -375 level due to the costs anticipated and due to the fact that there is water discharging from the lower level which we believe contains metals slightly in excess of allowable limits permitted by the EPA and will require treatment to meet the allowable limits. Therefore, we do not intend to enter the -375 level and incur any liability for this water discharge until such time that we ascertain the economic merits of the property and the costs of the necessary water treatment.


Work Completed by the Company at the IMA Mine


We rehabilitated an old building of approximately 3,000 square feet on the IMA Mine-site and are presently using it for storage of materials.


We engaged contractors to drill water wells, construct water and septic sewer systems and install electrical power to both the 75 Acre Parcel and one of the valley parcels of land.


We have completed construction of a 1,000 square foot office building and a 2,000 square foot shop for core logging and sawing.  We were able to occupy to the foregoing structure on or around March 1, 2008.


We have improved the access roads to the Zero level and the D level and have constructed drill sites and sumps.


Current State of Exploration and/or Development of the IMA Mine


As of the date of this Report, ten (10) holes have been completed.


Company’s Proposed Plan of Exploration and/or Development of the IMA Mine


The IMA Mine is without known reserves and our proposed exploration program is exploratory in nature.


As of the date of this Report, no exploration activities are being conducted at Idaho Project. We intend to raise additional capital and/or seek a joint venture partner to finance the further exploration of the potentially large molybdenum bearing intrusive located below the existing mine workings of the Idaho Project. However,

there is no assurance that we will be able to raise any additional capital and/or find a joint venture partner who can provide the necessary capital and/or financing.  Moreover, we cannot provide any assurance that the exploration, development and/or extraction of tungsten or molybdenum would prove to be  “Commercially Viable”, that is, that the potential quantity of tungsten or molybdenum and their market value would, after consideration of the costs and expenses that would be required to explore, develop and/or extract any such tungsten or molybdenum deposits (if any), would justify a decision to do so.


We have previously engaged the consulting services of Wardrop Engineering, Inc. of Toronto, Canada (“Wardrop”) to review the available data on the IMA Mine and to recommend an exploration program. Based on the Wardrop recommendation, in July of 2007, we commenced a two (2) phase exploration program of the IMA Mine to assess whether any Commercially Viable tungsten or molybdenum bearing mineral deposits are present.  Phase 1 of our exploration program generally consisted of surface exploration drilling and Phase 2 of our exploration program generally consisted of the same. We have completed Phase 1 and Phase 2 of our exploration program, and based on the results, data and analysis derived therefrom, we believe it is prudent to continue our exploration of the IMA Mine and we intend to commence a Phase 3 exploration program of the IMA Mine as soon as we can obtain the additional financing necessary to enable us to continue such exploration; however, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing and/or commence Phase 3 of exploration program. Moreover, we may, prior to the commencement (if at all) and/or completion of Phase 3 of our exploration program, determine that Commercially Viable tungsten or molybdenum deposits do not exist within the IMA Mine, in which event we anticipate that we will terminate our proposed Phase 3 exploration program.  Even if we commence and complete Phase 3 of our exploration program, we may not be able to determine if Commercially Viable tungsten or molybdenum deposits exist within the IMA Mine or if additional exploration is required to make such determination.


Plant and Equipment


We have purchased two (2) diamond saws for core cutting, two (2) all-terrain-vehicles for off road transport, three (3) used travel trailers for temporary living space and a bulldozer for road maintenance and snow removal.

Geology and Mineralization


The IMA Mine was a producer of tungsten and closed in 1957.  The tungsten was contained in quartz veins in metamorphosed sedimentary rocks.  The lower levels of the mine intersected a granitic intrusive stock which was covered by the over-lying metamorphosed sedimentary rocks,  Molybdenum occurs as disseminations and within quartz veins in the granite.  In addition, tungsten, silver, copper, lead and zinc are also present in the intrusive itself and in the quartz veins.


Item 3.

Legal Proceedings.


Except as set forth below, there are no pending or threatened legal proceedings to which we are a party or of which any of our property is the subject, or to our knowledge, any proceedings contemplated by governmental authorities.


(i)

During the first quarter of 2009, the Company received a letter from counsel to Joe Antoshkiw, the owner of the Nunavut Project.  The letter alleged a claim against the Company and CRVD Inco Limited in connection with that certain Assignment and Novation Agreement (the “Nunavut Assignment Agreement”) and proposed a monetary settlement in the amount of $50,000 in return of a release of claims by Antoshkiw against the Company and CRVD Inco Limited. The Company believes the claim asserted by Antoshkiw against it is without merit and that the probability of exposure to loss in connection therewith is remote and has, therefore, not recognized any loss in the statement of operations.

Market Information


As of October 9, 2007, our common stock has been quoted on the over-the-counter bulletin board (the “OTCBB”) under the symbol “GNTO”.  Prior to October 9, 2007, there was no public trading market for our common stock.


The following table set forth below lists the range of high and low bids for our common stock for each fiscal quarter for the last two fiscal years as reported by OTCBB.  The prices in the table reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail markup, markdown or commission and may not represent actual transactions.

(1) Our common stock began to be quoted on the OTCBB on October 9, 2007.  


 Although our common stock is quoted on the OTCBB, there is a limited public market for our common stock and no assurance can be given that an active market will develop or that a stockholder will ever be able to liquidate its shares of common stock without considerable delay, if at all. The OTCBB  is not a stock exchange and trading of securities on the OTCBB is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on exchanges like NASDAQ or the New York Stock  Exchange.  Many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in our securities. Even if a purchaser finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in these securities, the combination of brokerage commissions, state transfer taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price. Furthermore, our stock price may be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price and liquidity of our common stock.


Our common stock is currently considered penny stock. Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system). 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 that provides information about penny stocks and the 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 broker-dealer must also 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 requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security that becomes subject to the penny stock rules.


Holders


As of the date of this Report, there were approximately eighty five (85) holders of record of our common stock.


Dividends


We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future.  Future dividends, if any, will be determined by our Board of Directors. In addition, we may incur indebtedness in the future which may prohibit or effectively restrict the payment of dividends, although we have no current plans to do so.


Equity Compensation Plans


As of the date of this Report, the Company does not maintain any equity based compensation plans for its directors, officers, employees and/or independent consultants (if any).


Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities


On March 24, 2005, the date of our formation, the Company issued an aggregate of 12,500,000 shares (after giving effect to the March 2007 Split) of our common stock to Arnold T. Kondrat and Lloyd J. Bardswich who are the founders and organizers of this Company.  Arnold T. Kondrat paid $45,000 for 11,250,000 shares (after giving effect to the March 2007 Split) of our Common Stock shares and Lloyd J. Bardswich paid $5,000 for 1,250,000 shares (after giving effect to the March 2007 Split) of our common stock.  The sale of the foregoing securities were exempted under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering.


On  July 23, 2007, Bardswich, Idaho LLC, an Idaho limited liability company (“Bardswich LLC”), an entity that is owned and controlled by Lloyd J. Bardswich, who is the president, treasurer, chief financial officer  and a director of the Company, and Gentor Idaho, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into that certain assignment agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”) whereby Bardswich LLC assigned all of its rights, title and interest in and to that  certain Mineral Lease Agreement and Option to Purchase (the “Idaho Option Agreement”) which relates to twenty one (21) patented mining claims located over approximately 376 acres of real property and four other parcels of approximately 216 acres in Lemhi County, Idaho (the “Idaho Properties”) to Gentor Idaho in exchange for $40,000 in cash and 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company believes that the fair value of the 500,000 shares provided to Bardswich LLC as part of the Assignment Agreement is approximately $100,000.  The sale of the foregoing securities were exempted under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering.


On July 31, 2007, the Company sold 1,000,000 Units (as defined herein ) to Arnold T. Kondrat (the “Purchaser”) for aggregate consideration of $200,000. Each Unit (each a “Unit”) consists of one (1) share of the $.0001 par value common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) and one (1) warrant (a “Warrant”) to purchase one (1) share of Common Stock. The terms of the Warrant provide that the holder thereof is entitled to purchase one share (1) share of Common Stock at a purchase price of twenty five cent (US$0.25) per share of Common Stock at any time within twenty four (24) months subsequent to the date of the issuance of the Warrant. Neither the Common Stock, the Warrants or the Common Stock underlying the Warrants that comprise the Units nor the sale thereof have been registered under the Securities Act and are “Restricted Securities”as such term is defined by Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The Company claims exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the Units so issued pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act (as no public offering was involved) and/or Regulation S under the Securities Act.  The Purchaser, who is a current shareholder of the Company, made an informed investment decision based upon negotiation with the Company and had access to material information regarding the Company.  The Company believes that the Purchaser has the knowledge and experience in financial matters such that the Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of acquisition of the Units.  All certificates representing the Common Stock and the Warrants issued pursuant to the foregoing bear an appropriate legend restricting the transfer of such same, except in accordance with the Securities Act.  On  November 20, 2007, the Purchaser exercised his right to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company for aggregate consideration of $250,000.


On December 17, 2007, the Company sold an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares (the “Purchase Shares”) of its $.0001 par value common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) to the various  non-US purchasers (each a “Purchaser” and collectively, the “Purchasers”).  Neither the Purchase Shares nor the sale thereof have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and are “Restricted Securities”as such term is defined by Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The Company claims exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the Purchase Shares so issued pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act (as no public offering was involved) and/or Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Company believes that each Purchaser has the knowledge and experience in financial matters such that each Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of acquisition of the Purchase Shares.  All certificates representing the Common Stock of the Purchase Shares issued pursuant to the foregoing bear an appropriate legend restricting the transfer of such same, except in accordance with the Securities Act.


Since our inception, as except as disclosed above in this section entitled “Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities,” we have not sold any securities of the Company without registering such securities under the Securities Act.

Item 7.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.


The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations constitutes management’s review of the factors that affected our financial performance for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007. This discussion is intended to further the reader’s understanding of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of our Company.  This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. These historical financial statements may not be indicative of our future performance.


Overview


As previously stated, we are an exploration stage company (as such term is defined in Securities Act Industry Guide 7(a)(4)(i)), which means that we are engaged in the search for mineral deposits (reserves) which are not either in the development or production stage. Our corporate strategy is to create shareholder value by acquiring and developing highly prospective mineral properties in the United States and internationally.  As such, we aim to acquire properties which we believe have potential to host economic concentrations of minerals, particularly gold, molybdenum, nickel and copper.


Since our inception, we have acquired rights to the Montana Project, the Idaho Project and the Nunavut Project.  As of the date of this Report, we have terminated our rights to explore the Montana Project and the Nunavut Project, but we still maintain our rights to explore the Idaho Project, which is a molybdenum-tungsten project located in east-central Idaho.


Results of Operations


Since our inception on March 24, 2005, we have been classified as an “exploration stage company” (as such term is defined in Securities Act Industry Guide 7(a)(4)(i)) with no producing mines and, accordingly, we do not produce income and have not generated any revenue. Our net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 was $3,189,473 as compared to a net loss of $1,881,910 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007. The foregoing increase of $1,307,563 is attributable primarily to the increases in activity with respect to our drilling programs as well as out field camp expenses in connection with the Idaho Project during the calendar year 2008.


During the twelve months ended December 31, 2008, we spent approximately $2,663,186 in connection with the exploration and evaluation of the Idaho Project, the Montana Project and the Nunavut Project, as compared with $1,524,553 for the prior twelve months ended December 31, 2007, which is consistent with our increased activity levels at the Idaho Project.


We also incurred corporate and administrative costs of $418,125 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 compared with $351,019 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, which is consistent with our increased exploration activity levels at the Idaho Project. These costs include consulting compensation expenses, marketing and investor relations expenses, general legal expenses, and accounting and compliance issues reflecting the greater complexity of our operations.


Depreciation costs for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 was $110,176, compared to $6,338 of deprecation costs for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007. The increase of $103,838 of depreciation costs is due to the fact that capital assets were purchased at the very end of 2007 and approximately $250,000 of capital assets in the first half of 2008.  Therefore, a full year of depreciation was recorded for the assets purchased in 2007.  


Liquidity and Capital Resources


As of the date of this Report, we do not have sufficient financing to undertake full exploration of all of the Idaho Project and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing.


Our cash balance at December 31, 2008 was $8,502, compared to $1,712,947 as at December 31, 2007.  Total assets at December 31, 2008 were $717,624 compared to $2,081,268 as at December 31, 2007. The change in these balances reflects the cash used to fund the drilling program at the Idaho Project.


Current liabilities at December 31, 2008 were  $2,035,341 compared to $319,715 as at December 31, 2007.  This increase in current liabilities is the result of our exploration activities and indicates that we believe that we will need to obtain additional financing in order to continue our exploration program.


As of the date of this Report, we intend to concentrate our available resources towards the exploration of the Idaho Project.  In late July of 2007, we commenced Phase a two (2) phase drilling program recommended by Wardrop, the Company’s consultant, in order to test for the potential of a large scale molybdenum deposit being present under the IMA Mine.  Phase 1 of our drilling program consisted of drilling five (5) core holes from surface totaling 7,200 feet in order to substantiate prior work and to test continuity along a 1,000 foot strike length. Due to frequent breakdowns of the contractor's  equipment, our Phase 1 drilling program fell behind schedule.  However, despite the delays during the Phase 1 drilling program, an inspection of the drill core from the first hole revealed visible molybdenum sulphide, and based on the foregoing preliminary finding, we decided to engage the services of a second drill contractor to commence Phase 2 of the drill program. Phase 2 of our drilling program consisted of drilling an additional five (5) core holes from the surface and cost approximately $2,500,000 to complete.  As of the date of this Report, we have completed Phase 1 and Phase 2 of our exploration program, and based on the results, data and analysis derived therefrom, we believe it is prudent to continue our exploration of the IMA Mine and we intend to commence a Phase 3 exploration program of the Idaho Project when and if we can obtain the additional financing necessary to enable us to continue such exploration.  We believe that it will cost approximately  $3,000,000 to complete our Phase 3 exploration program; however, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing and/or commence Phase 3 of exploration program.


Furthermore, we anticipate that the Company will also require additional capital to continue payment of ongoing general, administrative and operations costs associated with supporting its planned operations, the amounts of which are presently unknown. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient quantities of capital when needed, it will be necessary to develop alternative plans that would likely delay the exploration of the Idaho Project.  There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing for the Idaho Project on customary terms, or at all.


Going Concern


We believe that we will require a minimum of approximately $250,000 to meet our capital requirements of the next twelve months for the following estimated expenses: (i)  $100,000 to maintain our rights to the Idaho Project and (ii)  $150,000 for general and administrative expenses, which includes legal fees and audit fees.  Since our cash balance at December 31, 2008 was $8,502, we currently do not have enough cash to satisfy our minimum cash requirements for the next twelve months.


In addition to our minimum capital requirements for the next twelve months, we also believe that we will also require (i) approximately $3,000,000 to commence and complete the Phase 3 exploration program of the Idaho Project (of the foregoing amount, we intend to use approximately $2,700,000 for drilling expenses and $300,000 for geological studies expenses) and (ii) approximately $2,000,000 to discharge and/or reduce our current liabilities.


Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital and/or find a joint venture partner. We are currently seeking equity and/or debt financing, and/or a joint venture partner, to provide the requisite capital to meet our minimum capital requirements. We currently do not have any financing arrangements in place and there are no assurances that we will be able to obtain additional financing in an amount sufficient to meet our needs or on terms that are acceptable to us. If financing in the short term is not available to us on satisfactory terms, we may be forced to cease our operations and this result would have material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, and could ultimately cause our business to fail.  If we raise funds through equity or convertible securities, our existing stockholders may experience dilution and our stock price may decline.


Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses, our recurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations, our independent auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their audit report concerning these matters which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.


Off Balance Sheet Arrangements


We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Directors and Shareholders of

Gentor Resources, Inc.

(An Exploration Stage Company)


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Gentor Resources, Inc. (an exploration stage company) as at December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and shareholders’ equity (deficiency) for the year ended December 31, 2008, for the year ended December 31, 2007 and for the period from March 24, 2005 (date of inception) to December 31, 2008. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits 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 also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and 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 Gentor Resources, Inc. (an exploration stage company) as at December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008, the year ended December 31, 2007 and for the period from March 24, 2005 (date of inception) to December 31, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations.  These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

GENTOR RESOURCES, INC.

(An exploration stage Corporation)

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2008 and 2007


1.

ORGANIZATION AND GOING CONCERN


Gentor Resources, Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated on March 24, 2005 under the Florida Business Corporation Act.  The Company is an exploration stage corporation formed for the purpose of prospecting and developing mineral properties.  

  

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  As at December 31, 2008, the Company has a loss from operations of $3,189,473 and accumulated deficit of $5,402,920 which raises substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company intends to fund operations through equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditure, working capital and other cash requirements.  


The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon it emerging from the exploration stage, obtaining additional financing to continue operations, explore and develop the mining properties and the discovery, development and sale of ore reserves.


These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.


2.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


a)

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION


On June 28, 2007, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary Gentor Idaho, an Idaho corporation. The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary.


b)

MINERAL PROPERTIES AND EXPLORATION COSTS


Exploration costs pertaining to mineral properties with no proven reserves are charged to operations as incurred. When it is determined that mineral properties can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, cost incurred to develop such properties are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the unit of production method over the estimated life of the probable reserves.

 








c)

CAPITAL ASSETS


Capital assets are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded as follows:


Vehicle

 

-

Straight line over two years


Mining equipment

 -

Straight line over four years


Building

-

Straight line over five years


In 2007, the building was under construction and no depreciation was taken until construction was completed in 2008.


d)

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS


Cash and equivalents consist of bank balances, demand deposits and other short term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three month or less.


The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts that at times, may exceed U.S. and Canadian federally insured limits.  The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts, and we believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risks on cash equivalents.


e)

USE OF ESTIMATES


The preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from management's best estimates as additional information becomes available in the future. Significant estimates and assumptions include those related to the recoverability of mineral properties and capital assets.


f)

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from its financial instruments.  The fair value of its financial instruments approximates their carrying values, unless otherwise noted.


Fair Value Measures


In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measures.” (“SFAS No. 157 ”). This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, expands disclosures about fair value measurements and applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.


FASB Staff Position No. FAS-157-2 provided for a deferred implementation relating to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities to January 1, 2009. We elected to defer the requirements of SFAS 157 for our non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, which would include goodwill and other intangible assets for purposes of impairment assessments.

Effective January 1, 2008, we implemented SFAS 157 for our financial assets and financial liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period.


In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.


The following table presents, for each of the fair value hierarchy levels required under SFAS No. 157, the company's financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2008:

g)

INCOME TAXES


Deferred income taxes are reported for timing differences between items of income or expense reported in the financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes in accordance with US GAAP, which requires the use of the asset/liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Deferred income taxes and tax benefits are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for the tax loss and credits carryforwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company recognizes deferred taxes for the estimated future tax effects attributable to deductible temporary differences and loss carryforwards when realization is more likely than not.  The deferred taxes for the company therefore amount to nil at the balance sheet date.


h)

LOSS PER SHARE


Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted average common stock outstanding has been adjusted to reflect the stock split discussed in Note 10. Diluted loss per share includes the potential dilutive effect of outstanding warrants using the treasury stock methods.


3.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS


In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. This statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of non-governmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States. This statement became effective on November 16, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 162 does not have a material impact on the Company's financial conditions or results of operations.


In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosure about Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment to Statement No. 133”. This statement changes the disclosure requirements for derivatives and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivatives instruments, (b) how derivatives instruments and related hedges items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivatives instruments and related hedges items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance and cash flows. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. This statement encourages but does not require comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 161 to have a material impact on its financial conditions or its results of operations.


4.

PREPAID AND DEPOSIT


Prepaid and deposits account includes a $10,000 certificate of deposit issued on March 11, 2008 and  assigned to the United States Bureau of Land Management as a reclamation bond for the installation of a bridge crossing the Patterson creek in the Company's Montana project. This certificate of deposit bears an interest rate of 3.3% per annum and will mature on March 11, 2009.  The certificate of deposit will automatically roll over to maintain the bond in good standing. See note 13 for subsequent event discussion.


5.

MINERAL PROPERTIES


United States


Idaho Project


On July 3, 2007, the Company acquired through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Gentor Idaho, a fee simple title for a 75 acre parcel of land located in Lemhi County, Idaho for a purchase price of $169,000. The 75 Acre Parcel also includes 72 miner’s inches of water rights. In addition, through a staking program, the Company also acquired 114 lode claims and 5 placer claims on federal lands (“the Staked Claims”).  The Company is required to pay $14,875 per annum ($125 per Staked Claim) to the United States Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management in order to retain the Staked Claims.


Effective as of July 23, 2007, Bardswich LLC, an entity that is owned and controlled by Lloyd J. Bardswich, who is the president and CEO of the Company, and Gentor Idaho, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an assignment agreement whereby Bardswich LLC assigned all of its rights, title and interest in and to the Idaho Option Agreement to Gentor Idaho in exchange for $40,000 in cash and 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Idaho Option Agreement dated effective as of March 1, 2007 relates to a certain mineral lease agreement and an option to purchase twenty one (21) patented mining claims located over approximately 376 acres of real property and four other parcels of approximately 216 acres (collectively, the “Optioned Properties”) in Lemhi County, Idaho.  An initial payment of $40,000 in cash was made by the Idaho claim owner upon execution of the Idaho Option Agreement and an additional payment of $60,000 was made on the six-month anniversary date of signing the original Idaho Option Agreement.  A payment of $100,000 was made during the month of March 2008 with respect to the first anniversary date of the Idaho Option Agreement. Additional payments of (i) $100,000 in cash is due on or before the second and third anniversary date of the Idaho Option Agreement, and (ii) $200,000 in cash is due on or before the fourth anniversary date thereafter until the purchase price is paid or the Idaho Option Agreement is terminated or cancelled. However, on March 1, 2009, the second anniversary date of the Idaho Option Agreement, the Idaho Claim Owner agreed to accept four equal payments of $25,000 on each of March 1, May 1, July 1, and September1, 2009 in lieu of the $100,000 payment that was due in full on March 1, 2009.  The initial foregoing $25,000 payment that was due on March 1, 2009 has been paid to the Idaho Claim Owner. To the extent that the Company makes any advanced minimum royalty payments, the Company is entitled to receive a corresponding credit against any required net smelter return royalties that are otherwise required to be paid to the Idaho claim owner under the Idaho Option Agreement. The Idaho Option Agreement also grants the Company an option to purchase the Idaho claim owner's rights to the Optioned Properties, including but not limited to the IMA Mine, for a total purchase price of $5,000,000, excluding therefrom the right of the Idaho claim owner to receive a three percent (3%) royalty on net revenue generated from the sale of any molybdenum, copper, lead and zinc recovered from the IMA Mine and five percent (5%) royalty on the net revenue generated from the sale of all other ores, minerals, or other products recovered from  the Optioned Properties.


Montana Project


The Company holds option agreements to acquire exclusive gold exploration, prospecting and development rights and privileges to six (6) unpatented mining claims (“the Mining Claims”), located in the Jefferson County, State of Montana. Under the mining exploration and option agreement signed on April 29, 2005 (and as amended and restated March 30, 2006), the Company holds the exclusive option to purchase the Mining Claims for a total cash consideration of $1,000,000 (“the purchase price”) subject to a 2% net smelter return royalty. A payment of $7,500 was made upon execution of the agreement on April 29, 2005, an additional payment of $7,500 was made on the first anniversary date of signing and a payment of $10,000 was made on the second anniversary date.  In May 2008, the Company notified the Mining Claim Owner and terminated the April 29, 2005 (and as amended and restated March 30, 2006) mining exploration and option agreement as exploration results did not warrant continued exploration of these Mining Claims. Although no further exploration will be conducted on these Mining Claims, the Company will still be responsible for Russian Knapweed control over these Mining Claims for the next three years. A reclamation bond of $3,540 was paid in June of 2006 to the Montana Department of Environmental Quality to secure the Company’s reclamation obligations arising from its exploration activities on the Montana Project.  The reclamation bond was returned to the Company on November 12, 2008.


Canada


Nunavut Project


 

On September, 7, 2007, the Company entered into an Assignment and Novation Agreement (the “Nunavut Assignment Agreement”) with CVRD Inco Limited (“Inco”) and Antoshkiw. Inco, had previously signed an exploration option agreement (the “Antoshkiw Option Agreement”) with Antoshkiw on October 19, 2006 covering certain claims (the “Nunavut Optioned Properties”) located in the Nunavut Territory. The Nunavut Optioned Properties, which cover approximately 1,965 acres, are considered to be prospective exploration areas for both nickel and copper. With the execution of the Nunavut Assignment Agreement, the Company acquired all of Inco’s rights, title, interests and obligations under the Antoshkiw Option Agreement with respect to the Nunavut Optioned Properties.  In consideration of the foregoing assignment of rights, the Company granted Inco the right of first refusal to process any mineral concentrate produced from the “Area of Interest,” which consists of approximately 85,000 acres in the Nunavut Optioned Properties. In order to maintain and exercise the Nunavut Option Right, the Company must make the following payments to Antoshkiw and undertake the following expenditures: (i) on or before the first anniversary date of the Antoshkiw Option Agreement, the Company must pay to Antoshkiw CDN $35,000 (this amount has already been paid by the Company) and spend at least CDN$100,000 in connection with the exploration and development of the Nunavut Optioned Properties (however, this requirement has been postponed by mutual agreement to the second anniversary date); (ii) on or before the second anniversary date of the Antoshkiw Option Agreement, the Company must pay to Antoshkiw CDN $50,000 and spend at least CDN$200,000 in connection with the exploration and development of the Nunavut Optioned Properties, and (iii) on or before the third anniversary date of the Antoshkiw Option Agreement, the Company must pay to Antoshkiw CDN $100,000 and spend at least CDN$400,000 in connection with the exploration and development of the Nunavut Optioned Properties.


On October 21, 2008, the Company notified Antoshkiw that they would not be exercising their option to continue with the option rights under the agreement and were giving notice of abandonment of all Rights and Options granted to Gentor under the agreements.

CONTINGENT LIABILITY


FAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies” requires loss contingencies to be accrued and expressed if they are probable and can be reasonably estimated.


During the first quarter of 2009, the Company received a letter from counsel to Joe Antoshkiw, the owner of the Nunavut Project.  The letter alleged a claim against the Company and CRVD Inco Limited in connection with that certain Assignment and Novation Agreement (the “Nunavut Assignment Agreement”) and proposed a monetary settlement in the amount of $50,000 in return of a release of claims by Antoshkiw against the Company and CRVD Inco Limited. The Company believes the claim asserted by Antoshkiw against it is without merit and that the probability of exposure to loss in connection therewith is remote (not probable) and has, therefore, not recognized any loss in the statement of operations.

Item 9A.

Controls and Procedures.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, which is the same person, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this annual report (the “Evaluation Date”).


Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of certain deficiencies involving internal controls which constituted a material weakness as discussed below. The material weakness identified did not result in the restatement of any previously reported financial statements or any other related financial disclosures, nor does management believe that it had any effect on the accuracy of our financial statements for the current reporting period.


Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.  Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining “internal control over financial reporting,” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act.  Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only a reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.


Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, which is the same person, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on its evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer have concluded that there is a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, and as a result of the foregoing material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, our management has concluded that our  internal control over financial reporting was not effective as at December 31, 2008. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control 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.


The material weakness relates to the monitoring and review of work performed by our limited accounting staff in the preparation of financial statements, footnotes and financial data provided to our independent registered public accounting firm in connection with the annual audit. More specifically, the  material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting is due to the fact that:


The Company lacks proper segregation of duties.  We believe that the lack of proper segregation of duties is due to our limited resources.


The Company lacks accounting personal with sufficient skills and experience to ensure proper accounting for complex, non-routine transactions.


Management has concluded that until we have sufficient financial resources to supplement our accounting personnel, a material weakness with respect to our Company’s internal control over financial reporting will continue.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Report.


This report shall not be deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and is not incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.


Changes in Internal Controls. There were no significant changes made in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2008 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting subsequent to the Evaluation Date.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings.


During the past five (5) years, none of our directors, executive officers and/or persons (if any) nominated to become a director and/or executive officer of the Company have been involved in and/or subject to any of the following events:


a petition under the Federal bankruptcy laws or any state insolvency law was filed by or against, or a receiver, fiscal agent or similar officer was appointed by a court for the business or property of such person, or any partnership in which he was a general partner at or within two years before the time of such filing, or any corporation or business association of which he was an executive officer at or within two years before the time of such filing;


such person was convicted in a criminal proceeding or is a named subject of a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);


Such person was the subject of any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining him from, or otherwise limiting, the following activities:


(i)

Acting as a futures commission merchant, introducing broker, commodity trading advisor, commodity pool operator, floor broker, leverage transaction merchant, any other person regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or an associated person of any of the foregoing, or as an investment adviser, underwriter, broker or dealer in securities, or as an affiliated person, director or employee of any investment company, bank, savings and loan association or insurance company, or engaging in or continuing any conduct or practice in connection with such activity;


(ii)

Engaging in any type of business practice; or


(iii)

Engaging in any activity in connection with the purchase or sale of any security or commodity or in connection with any violation of Federal or State securities laws or Federal commodities laws;


Such person was the subject of any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any Federal or State authority barring, suspending or otherwise limiting for more than 60 days the right of such person to engage in any activity described in paragraph (f)(3)(i) of this section, or to be associated with persons engaged in any such activity.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.


Since the Company does not have a class of equity securities registered pursuant Section 12 of the Exchange Act, no director, officer, and/or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of any class of equity securities of the Company is required file any reports pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, and therefore, there is no Item 405 disclosure contained in this Report.


Code of Ethics


We have yet not adopted a code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.  Our inability to formally prepare and adopt a code of ethics is due to our small number of employees and limited financial resources.  Such inability does not indicate that our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions does not adhere to policies and procedures that would deter wrongdoing and would promote (i) honest and ethical conduct; (ii) full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with the SEC; (iii) compliance with applicable governmental law, rules and regulations; (iv) prompt internal identification of potential abuses; and (v) accountability.


Audit Committee


The Company does not have a separately designated standing audit committee.  Pursuant to Section 3(a)(58)(B) of the Exchange Act, the entire Board of Directors, none of which are deemed to be independent under the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC or any other self regulatory organization, acts as an audit committee for the purpose of overseeing the accounting and financial reporting processes, and the Company audits of the financial statements. The Board of Directors may establish an audit committee in the future if the Board of Directors determines it to be advisable or we are otherwise required to do so by applicable law, rule or regulation.


The Board of Directors has determined that the Company does not have an “audit committee financial expert” serving on our Board of Directors which is carrying out the duties of the Audit Committee. Due to our small number of employees and limited financial resources, we not in a position at this time to attract, retain and compensate additional directors in order to acquire a director who qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert”, but intends to retain an additional director who will qualify as such an expert, as soon as reasonably practicable.


Nominating and Compensation Committee


The Board of Directors have not established separately designated nominating or compensation committee or other committee performing similar functions.  The functions of a nominating or compensation committee are currently performed by the entire Board of Directors, none of which are deemed to be independent under the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC or any other self regulatory organization.  The Board of Directors may establish a nomination or compensation committee in the future if the Board of Directors determines it to be advisable or we are otherwise required to do so by applicable law, rule or regulation.
