NATURE OF OPERATIONS
|
Organization
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada, U.S.A., on April 21, 2006.
Exploration Stage Activities
The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation and is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining claims. Upon location of a commercial minable reserve, the Company expects to actively prepare the site for its extraction and enter a development stage. During the fiscal year 2010, the Company’s mineral claim interest was expired and lapsed. Currently, the Company is actively looking for other mineral properties for its planned business operation.
Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
The general business strategy of the Company is to acquire and explore mineral properties. The continued operations of the Company and the recoverability of mineral property costs is dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable mineral reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to complete the development of its properties, and upon future profitable production. The Company has not generated any revenues or completed development of any properties to date. Further, the Company has a working capital deficit of $85,963 (June 30, 2010- $43,099) has incurred losses of $193,023 since inception, and further significant losses are expected to be incurred in the exploration and development of its mineral properties. The Company will require additional funds to meet its obligations and maintain its operations. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be successful in raising the necessary financing. Management’s plans in this regard are to raise equity financing as required.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited financial statements as of December 31, 2010 included herein have been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations on a going basic concern-basis. This disclosure presumes funds will be available to finance on-going development, operations and capital expenditures and the realization of assets and the payment of liabilities in the normal course of operations for the foreseeable future.
In the opinion of the Company’s management these financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at December 31, 2010 and the results of its operation for the six months then ended. Operating results for the six months ended December 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2011. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with June 30, 2010 audited financial statements and notes thereto.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment. Actual results may vary from these estimates. The financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below.
a) Exploration Stage Enterprise
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting and according to the provisions of ASC 915 “Accounting and Reporting for Development Stage Enterprises,” as it devotes substantially all of its efforts to acquiring and exploring mineral properties. Until such properties are acquired and developed, the Company will continue to prepare its financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with entities in the exploration stage.
b) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
c) Mineral Property Acquisition Payments
The Company expenses all costs incurred on mineral properties to which it has secured exploration rights prior to the establishment of proven and probable reserves. If and when proven and probable reserves are determined for a property and a feasibility study prepared with respect to the property, then subsequent exploration and development costs of the property will be capitalized.
The Company regularly performs evaluations of any investment in mineral properties to assess the recoverability and/or the residual value of its investments in these assets. All long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances change which indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
d) Exploration Expenditures
The Company follows a policy of expensing exploration expenditures until a production decision in respect of the project and the Company is reasonably assured that it will receive regulatory approval to permit mining operations, which may include the receipt of a legally binding project approval certificate.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
|
e) Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company has adopted ASC 410, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”, which requires that an asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset be recognized as a liability in the period which it is incurred and becomes determinable, with an offsetting increase in the carrying amount of the associated asset.
The cost of the tangible asset, including the initially recognized ARO, is depleted, such that the cost of the ARO is recognized over the useful life of the asset. The ARO is recorded at fair value, and accretion expense is recognized over time as the discounted liability is accreted to its expected settlement value. The fair value of the ARO is measured using expected future cash flow, discounted at the Company’s credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate. To date, no significant asset retirement obligation exists due to the early stage of exploration. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded.
f) Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States 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 reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
g) Financial Instruments
ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.
The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, loan payable and due to related parties. Pursuant to ASC 820, the fair value of our cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Company believes that the recorded values of all of the other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
|
g) Financial Instruments (continued)
The Company’s operations are in U.S. and Canada, which results in exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates. The financial risk is the risk to the Company’s operations that arise from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.
h) Environmental Costs
Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are charged to operations 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 charged to operations. 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 Company’s commitments to plan of action based on the then known facts.
i) Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes” and ASC 740 —Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which require the liability method of accounting for income taxes. The liability method requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities.
j) Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
The Company reports basic loss per share in accordance with ASC 260 – “Earnings Per Share”. Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share because there are no potential dilutive securities.
ASC 260-10, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities, addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and affects entities that accrue cash dividends on share-based payment awards during the awards’ service period when the dividends do not need to be returned if the employees forfeit the awards. ASC 260-10 states that all outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends participate in undistributed earnings with common shareholders and, therefore, need to be included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share under the two-class method.

k) Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Transactions in Canadian dollars are translated into U.S. dollars as follows:
i)
|
monetary items at the rate prevailing at the balance sheet date;
|
|
ii)
|
non-monetary items at the historical exchange rate;
|
iii)
|
revenue and expense at the average rate in effect during the applicable accounting period.
|
Gains and losses on translation are recorded in the statement of operations.
l) Newly Adopted Accounting Policies
On July 1, 2010, the Company adopted ASC 860, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets — an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140. ASC 860 requires additional disclosures about the transfer and derecognition of financial assets and eliminates the concept of qualifying special-purpose entities under ASC 860/405. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
On July 1, 2010, the Company adopted ASC 810, Amendments to ASC 810. ASC 810 amends the evaluation criteria to identify the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity provided by ASC 810 Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities—An Interpretation of ASC 810. Additionally, ASC 810 requires ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
On July 1, 2010, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2009-12, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). This update provides amendments to Topic 820 for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent). The adoption of ASU 2009-12 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
On July 1, 2010, the Company adopted EITF No. 09-1, (ASC Topic 470) "Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance" ("EITF 09-1"). The provisions of EITF 09-1, clarifies the accounting treatment and disclosure of share-lending arrangements that are classified as equity in the financial statements of the share lender. An example of a share-lending arrangement is an agreement between the Company (share lender) and an investment bank (share borrower) which allows the investment bank to use the loaned shares to enter into equity derivative contracts with investors. The adoption of EITF 09-1 does not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
On July 1, 2010, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. This update addressed the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than a combined unit and will be separated in more circumstances that under existing US GAAP. This amendment has eliminated that residual method of allocation. The adoption of ASU 2009-13 does not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

l) Newly Adopted Accounting Policies (Continued)
On July 1, 2010, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2009-14, Software (Topic 985): Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements. This update changed the accounting model for revenue arrangements that include both tangible products and software elements. The adoption of ASU 2009-14 does not have an effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
On July 1, 2010, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. The adoption of ASU 2010-01 does not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
On July 1, 2010, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2010-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. The adoption of ASU 2010-02 does not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
|
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06 regarding fair value measurements and disclosures and improvement in the disclosure about fair value measurements. This ASU requires additional disclosures regarding significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 of fair value measurements, including a description of the reasons for the transfers. Further, this ASU requires additional disclosures for the activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, requiring presentation of information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU; however, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our financial statements.
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASC No. 2010-09, “Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements”, which eliminates the requirement for SEC filers to disclose the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events. ASC No. 2010-09 is effective for its fiscal quarter beginning after 15 December 2010. The adoption of ASC No. 2010-09 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements ASU No. 2010-13 was issued in April 2010, and clarified the classification of an employee share based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying security trades. This ASU will be effective for the first fiscal quarter beginning after December 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-13 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
|
This section of the prospectus includes a number of forward- looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this prospectus. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.
Plan of Operation
We are a start-up, exploration stage corporation and have not yet generated or realized any revenues from our business operations.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any revenues and do not anticipate generating any revenues until we begin removing and selling minerals. There is no assurance we will ever achieve these goals. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than the sale of minerals in order to implement our project and stay in business. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by others.
Our exploration target is to find an mineralized material, specifically, an ore body containing gold. Our success depends upon finding mineralized material. This includes a determination by our consultant that the property contains reserves. We have not yet selected a consultant. Mineralized material is a mineralized body which has been delineated by appropriate spaced drilling or underground sampling to support sufficient tonnage and average grade of metals to justify removal. If we don’t find mineralized material or if it is not economically feasible to remove it, we will cease operations and you will lose your investment.
In addition, we may not have enough money to complete the acquisition and exploration of a property. If it turns out that we have not raised enough money to complete our acquisition we will try to raise additional funds from a second public offering, a private placement or through loans. At the present time, we have not made any plans to raise additional money and there is no assurance that we would be able to raise additional money in the future. If we need additional money and cannot raise it, we will have to suspend or cease operations.
Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are an exploration stage corporation and have not generated any revenues from operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in the acquisition and exploration of our properties, and possible cost overruns due to price increases in services.
To become profitable and competitive, we need to identify a property and conduct research and explore our property before we start production of any minerals we may find. If we do find mineralized material, we will need additional funding to move beyond the research and exploration stage. We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have completed our public offering as of March 28, 2007 and to date have raised $107,060, we will attempt to raise additional money through a subsequent private placement, public offering or through loans.
Currently, we do not have sufficient funds for our intended business operation. Ms. Miller, one of our officers and directors, has agreed in financing the related operating expenditures to maintain the Company. The foregoing agreement is oral; we have nothing in writing. While Ms. Miller has agreed to advance the funds, the agreement is unenforceable as a matter of law because no consideration was given. At the present time, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional cash. If we need additional cash and can't raise it, we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely. Other than as described in this paragraph, we have no other financing plans.
Since inception, we have issued 7,070,000 shares of our common stock and received $107,060.
In March 2006, we issued 3,000,000 shares of common stock to Kathrine MacDonald, our former secretary/treasurer, in consideration of $30 and we issued 3,000,000 shares of common stock to Marilyn Miller, one of our officers and directors, in consideration of $30 pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1993.
We issued 1,070,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. This was accounted for as a purchase of shares of common stock.
As of December 31 2010, our total assets were $8 and our total liabilities were $85,971.
