ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

 

Corporate History

 

Guskin Gold Corp. (fka Inspired Builders, Inc.), a Nevada Corporation (the “Company”, “Guskin”, “we”, and “us”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada in February 2010, as Inspired Builders, Inc. We previously focused on repairing and providing home improvements for homeowners and then acquiring, investing in, developing, and managing real estate properties and related investments. On August 15, 2017, pursuant to another change in control transaction we ceased all operations as a real estate company.

 

On January 16, 2020, Santa Alba, LLC, our former majority shareholder, sold 956,440 shares of common stock to Custodian Ventures, LLC for an aggregate purchase price of $145,000. At this point there was a change of control of the Company and Kai Ming Zhao resigned as President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director and David Lazar was appointed as President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director.

On April 30, 2020, Custodian Ventures, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (“CVL”) and the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) with U Green Enterprise, a Ghana corporation (the “Purchaser”). The Agreement closed upon execution on April 30, 2020. Pursuant to the Agreement, CVL agreed to sell and Purchaser agreed to purchase 956,440 restricted common stock shares of the Company (the “Shares”), representing approximately 94.6% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. The Agreement resulted in a change of control of the Company and David Lazar resigned effective immediately as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole director and Edward Somuah was appointed as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole director.

 

On September 3, 2020, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Guskin Gold Corporation, a Nevada limited liability company (“GGC”), and the controlling stockholders of GGC (the “GGC Shareholders”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired One Hundred Percent (100%) the issued and outstanding equity interest of GGC from the GGC Shareholders (the “GGC Shares”) and in exchange the Company issued to GGC an aggregate of Twenty-Eight Million Two Hundred Thousand (28,200,000) shares of restricted common stock of the Company. As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement, GGC become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Share Exchange Agreement contains customary representations and warranties. Further, the Share Exchange Agreement contains the following conditions to closing and the closing of the Share Exchange shall only occur once the following conditions have been satisfied: (i) approval from the Company’s shareholders; and, (ii) GGC provides the Company with audited financial statements, with such financial statements being prepared by an independent accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB).

 

As of September 22, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement have been satisfied, accordingly the Share Exchange Agreement is closed (“Closing”).

 

Concurrent with the Closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company’s Board of Directors, having received the written consent of shareholders holding a majority of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, approved: (i) an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to change the Company’s name from Inspired Builders, Inc. to Guskin Gold Corp. (the “Corporate Name Change”); and (ii) a change to the Company’s OTC trading symbol from ISRB to GUSK, or if unavailable to GGCO or GKIN (the “Symbol Change”). Nevada corporate law permits holders of a majority of the voting power to take shareholder action by written consent. Accordingly, the Company did not hold a meeting of its shareholders to consider or vote upon the Corporate Name Change or Symbol Change. The Corporate Name Change and Symbol Change (to GKIN) became effective December 4, 2020. 

 

The Share Exchange Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the complete copy of the Share Exchange Agreement, which was filed with the SEC on September 8, 2020, as part of our Current Report on Form 8-K as Item 10.01 and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

Our year end is September 30. We are a development stage enterprise. Accordingly, our current plan of operation consists of identifying, assessing, and vetting various gold and mineral properties, specifically focusing on gold properties and the exploration and potential development of small-scale gold mining operations in Africa, as discussed in detail below. As the new business operations and direction of the Company shall be that of its wholly owned subsidiary, Guskin Gold Corporation.

 

Our principal office is located at 4500 Great America Parkway, PMB 38, Ste 100 Santa Clara, CA 95054 and we maintain a mailing address as 2nd Brewery Link Box mp 2797, Momprobi-Accro, Ghana. Our telephone number is (408) 766-1511 and our e-mail contact is info@guskingold.com. Our website can be viewed at www.guskingold.com.

Current Operations – Ghana, West Africa

 

Our business activity is the early-stage development of a business focusing on the acquisition of gold properties, and the exploration and potential development of gold mining operations in Africa, specifically focused currently in the Republic of Ghana, West Africa. Ms. Asante, our new CEO has traveled to Ghana seven times over the past 18 months, for the purpose of meeting with geologist, attorneys, and other qualified individuals in furtherance of identifying potential acquisition properties in Ghana and the subsequent exploration of these projects, if any, and the further development of these projects with the potential goal of attaining production of gold in Ghana. Ghana is a well-known mining jurisdiction with a long history of gold production and a highly trained workforce. The mining tenure, royalty and tax laws are stable and well legislated. While the Company’s current focus is in Ghana, we are actively seeking out opportunities throughout the continent of Africa.

 

On June 1, 2021, the Company and Africa Exploration & Minerals Group Limited, a company incorporated in Ghana (the “AEMG”) entered into a Joint Venture & Partnership Agreement (the “JV Agreement”) setting forth the terms and conditions of a joint venture and partnership (the “Partnership”) between themselves relating to precious metal, minerals and mining exploration activities in the Country of Ghana. The initial project that the Parties were to undertake was an approximately 1 square km of the Shewn Edged Pink Concession (the “Concession”). In the beginning of November 2021, Company management, while visiting our operations in Ghana, noticed various accounting discrepancies and expenses irregularities relating to AEMG’s activities at the Concession. Additionally, during this time the Company was informed that, on information and belief, AEMG was not the rightful owner of the Concession and in fact had no legal right to enter the Partnership with the Company. Thereafter, the Company met with AEMG on several occasions seeking to resolve these matters in a manner that would be mutually agreeable to both parties. All attempts, as of the date of this report, to resolve the dispute amicably have been unsuccessful. The Company has retained Ghanaian counsel to represent and protect its interests relating to the disputed funds and our ongoing operation in Ghana. Also, on advice of counsel, the Company has turned all evidence of the foregoing over to the proper authorities and currently the matter is under review by the lead prosecutors in Accra, Ghana. The Company will continue to assist the authorities in any manner necessary and will continue to protect and preserve all remedies available to the Company at law, both in Ghana and in the United States, as necessary.

On January 24, 2022, Guskin Gold Corp., by and through a new wholly owned subsidiary, Guskin Gold Ghana #1 Limited., a company incorporated under the Laws of the Republic of Ghana (collectively, Guskin Gold Corp. and its subsidiary Guskin Gold Ghana Ltd. shall be referred to hereinafter as the “Company”) and Danampco Company Ltd., a company incorporated under the Laws of the Republic of Ghana (the “DCL”) entered into a Joint Venture & Partnership Agreement (the “JV Agreement”) which sets forth the terms and conditions of a joint venture and partnership (the “Partnership”) between themselves relating to precious metal, minerals and mining exploration activities in the Country of Ghana. Per the Agreement DCL granted the Company an exclusive seventy (70%) percent ownership interest in that certain project, located in the Country of Ghana in which DCL has an interest known as the Kukuom Shewn Edged Pink Concession (the “Kukuom Concession”). The Kukuom Concession covers a total surface area of one-hundred fifty-six (156) square kilometers and is located between the cities of Goaso and Bibiani in the Ahafo District of Ghana. The Parties intent this to be an unincorporated contractual joint venture in respect of the exploration, development, exploitation, and operation of the Concession. Each additional project relating to the Ghana Option Interest, and agreed to be made part of, and undertaken by the Partnership, shall be governed by individual “Operating Agreements” setting forth the terms and conditions relating to each project specifically. As consideration for the Partnership, the Company shall provide all financing (“Financing”), to be remitted in accordance with a work program and budget, necessary to begin exploration of the Kukuom Concession. Additionally, the Company shall issue DCL 500,000 restricted common shares the Company’s common stock, at a per share valuation of $1.00 per share, with such shares shall be issued based on certain milestones, which are fully sent forth in the JV Agreement and Operating Agreement. The foregoing description of the JV Agreement and Operating Agreement (as Schedule A to the JV Agreement) do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of both documents which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4 (the Operating Agreement is Schedule A to the JV Agreement) and is incorporated herein by reference. 

 

On February 7, 2022, Guskin Gold Corp., enter into that certain Joint Venture & Partnership Agreement (the “Ensuro JV Agreement”) by and through Guskin Gold Ghana Ltd., a company incorporated under the Laws of the Republic of Ghana, and the Corporation’s wholly owned subsidiary, (collectively, Guskin Gold Corp. and its subsidiary Guskin Gold Ghana Ltd. shall be referred to hereinafter as the “Company”) with Ensuro Group of Companies Limited, a company incorporated under the Laws of the Republic of Ghana (the “Ensuro”). The Ensuro JV Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of an unincorporated joint venture and partnership (the “Partnership”) between the parties relating to precious metal, minerals and mining exploration activities in the Country of Ghana. Per the Agreement DCL shall grant the Corporation an exclusive seventy (70%) percent ownership interest in that certain project, located in the Country of Ghana in which DCL has an interest known as the Tepa Concession (the “Tepa Concession”) which covers a total surface area of fifty (50) acres and is located in the Ashanti Region of Ghana in exchange the Corporation shall provide all such financing necessary to exploit the Tepa Concession in accordance with a preapproved work program and budget. Additionally, the Corporation shall pay to Ensuro an access fee of Three Hundred Thousand (GH₵300,000) Ghana Cedi upon execution of the Ensuro JV Agreement (the “Access Fee”). The Access Fee shall be treated as a loan to Ensuro which will be repaid from the initial monies earned form the exploration, development, or exploitation of the Tepa Concession.

 

The specific terms and conditions relating to the operations of the Tepa Concession are set forth in that certain Operating Agreement (“Operating Agreement”), which is attached to the JV Agreement as Schedule A.

 

 The foregoing description of the JV Agreement and Operating Agreement (as Schedule A to the JV Agreement) do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of both documents which were filed as Exhibit 10.1 to our Form 8-K filed on February 8, 2022 (the Operating Agreement is Schedule A to the JV Agreement) and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

In conducting due diligence on any potential property, the Company focuses on the following critical factors when evaluating each properties merit:

 

 

·

the historical exploration work completed to date, including but not limited to, all geological, geochemical, geophysical, drill and core samples, and exploration data(s) and maps, all technical data; and,

 

 

 

 

·

the legal, government, and or regulatory affairs of the business or property.

 

The Company is seeking opportunities in the alluvial and or hard-rock gold sector. We believe these sectors will give us the best advantage in Ghana initially. By way of example and for clarity, there are two types of gold: alluvial gold that is often found in riverbeds and amalgam gold that is located in ore. In Ghana, both types of gold exist, however, initially we are focused on identification of properties where alluvial mining would be the method for extracting any gold deposits as we believe these will be more be financially beneficial to the Company and our shareholders.

Table of Contents

 

A successful approach to gold exploration involves a variety of traditional exploration techniques coupled with modern technological advances utilized in close conjunction in a systematically outlined manner that adhere strictly to industry standards to produce acceptable results. An example of this approach is outlined as follows:

 

Field Mapping

 

The foremost activity to be carried out in any new exploration would be field mapping. Here, field geologists and technicians will work hand in hand to assess the ground conditions and to evaluate the nature of current ground conditions. This among other things will reveal field intricacies included but not limited to artisanal workings for instance. The mapping team would be tasked to also locate the reported any old trenches and mark them out for follow up. They will carry out geological mapping such as mapping of outcrops. Another task to be carried out by the team would be to map out low lying areas which in turn will help in the future soil geochem planning.

 

Soil Sampling

 

Obtaining and storing a small amount of soil for visual inspection and laboratory testing for the determination of the soil unit geological provenance, characteristics and geotechnical engineering design parameters

 

Trenching

 

Trenching is going to be a major exploration technique on any property being explored by the Company. Trenches or pits may be dug by mechanical excavators as part of mineral exploration or mining permits. Trenches and pits may be dug when areas of earth containing minerals are shown to be present and need further testing. The trenching will be done in phases within the exploration campaign. Areas deemed as more prospective by virtue of the soil geochem results will be treated as high priority areas. Positive outcomes will warrant adjacent trenches to be opened along strike and that will be done when results are received from the laboratory.

 

Auger Drilling & Geophysical

 

In areas where trenching becomes a challenge, auger drilling would be the ideal approach to turn to. Such an approach is carefully followed through when there is a positive indication as to the continuation an anomaly. Geophysical surveys could also come in handy in confirming such scenarios but must be done with caution especially where there is limited geological evidence to prove such an occurrence. When there is great certainty of continuation of anomalous trends into alluvial terrains; such terrains will be auger drilled to verify the continuity of anomalies at depth.

 

Drilling

 

If the foregoing approach indicates noteworthy gold targets, coupled with the geophysics, the next step will be to complete a preliminary drill program to evaluate the potential size and nature of the deposit (s) there is within the prospects.

 

Quality Assurance Quality Control (QAQC)

 

A good Quality Control Quality Assurance program will identify problems in the sampling and analyses stream so that they may be fixed as soon as possible. QAQC will be designed and implemented to accompany all datasets during the exploration program especially during the drilling phase. The objective of the QAQC implementation is largely to ensure general sample quality as well as guaranteed results at all stages of drilling. It is a best practice that every drill database be accompanied by a sound QAQC program as a stamp of authority at all times. To this end, there is a huge responsibility to the technical (geological) team to ensure that human errors are reduced to the barest minimal and that will pave way to be able to monitor the laboratory in an effective manner.

 

Operations in Ghana

 

Ghana is situated on the west coast of Africa, approximately 600 kilometers (“km”) north of the Equator on the Gulf of Guinea. Accra, the capital city of Ghana, is located almost exactly on the Prime Meridian. The former British colony changed its name from the Gold Coast to Ghana upon achieving independence on March 6, 1957. Ghana is now a republic with a population of approximately 28 million people and a democratically elected government. English remains the official and commercial language.

Ghana is the fastest growing economy in the world according to the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business Report 2019. It also has one of the best judicial systems in the world measured by rule of law, World Justice Projects (WJP) Rule of Law Index 2017-2018. In 2015, Ghana ranked 6th in Africa on the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business barometer. It’s ranked as the most stable political environment in West Africa, with the most competitive economy, backed by a government committed to policies that reduce the cost of doing business and promoting investor confidence. Growth potential can be seen through improved taxes in Ghana. Ghana cut its corporate tax rate in 2016 and 2017 and has a mineral royalty to a sliding scale based on gold prices, from a 5 percent flat rate.

 

The Ghanaian legal system is generally modelled after and based on the British common law. The laws of Ghana include the Constitution, national laws passed by Parliament (or under authority granted by Parliament) and the common law of Ghana. The common law of Ghana includes customary rules which apply to particular communities in Ghana and which may or may not be consistent with the Constitution or a specific national law.

 

Ghana is a mining friendly country with two mining colleges and a large workforce trained in the disciplines of geology, exploration methods and mining engineering.

 

The Company is of the view that any risks associated with its corporate structure and its foreign operations are minimal and can be effectively managed by the Company without undue burden or associated costs.

 

Rights in Ghana

 

The Constitution of Ghana vests title in every mineral in its natural state to the Government of Ghana. The exercise of any mineral right in the form of reconnaissance, exploration, or exploitation of any mineral in Ghana requires an appropriate license or mineral right to be issued by the Government of Ghana acting through the Minister responsible for Lands and Natural Resources. The Minister responsible for Lands and Natural Resources administers, promotes and regulates Ghana’s mineral wealth through the Minerals Commission, a governmental organization designed in accordance with the Minerals Commission Act 1993 (Act 450) and the Minerals and Mining Act 2006 (“2006 Mining Act”).

 

Pursuant to the 2006 Mining Act, a number of regulations were passed in 2012 to clarify and implement provisions of the 2006 Mining Act. These regulations relate to matters such as licensing, local content, technical issues, mineral right holding costs, mine support services and payment of compensation to persons impacted by mining operations. Once a license or mineral right is issued to an entity by the Government of Ghana, Ghanaian mining laws prevent that license or mineral right from being transferred, assigned, or mortgaged by the licensee or mineral right holder without the prior written approval of the Government of Ghana. The Ghana Minerals Commission is also required to maintain a public register of all applications, grants, variations, transfers, suspensions and cancellations of such licenses or mineral rights. Official searches may be conducted in the public register to obtain information regarding any license or mineral right granted by the Government of Ghana.

 

In order to confirm the Company’s title in its material mineral properties, the Company will, from time to time, obtain legal opinions from its local Ghanaian counsel regarding rights, title and interests in and to its material mineral properties.

 

Ghanaian law sets mineral royalties at a flat rate of 5% of mineral revenues.

The Company’s activities are subject to extensive federal, state, and local laws governing the protection of the environment, prospecting, development, production, taxes, labor standards, occupational health, mine safety, toxic substances, and other matters. The costs to comply with such regulatory requirements are substantial and possible future legislation and regulations could cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions and delays in the development and continued operation of the Company’s properties, the extent of which cannot be predicted. In the context of environmental permitting, including the approval of reclamation plans, the Company must comply with known standards and regulations which may entail significant costs and delays. Although the Company has been recognized for its commitment to environmental responsibility and believes it is in substantial compliance with applicable laws and regulations, amendments to current laws and regulations, more stringent application or interpretation of these laws and regulations through judicial review, or administrative action or the adoption of new laws could have a material adverse effect upon the Company and its results of operations.

Environmental matters in Ghana, including those related to mining, fall primarily under the oversight of the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), as well as the Minerals Commission and their Mines Inspectorate Division. The EPA has acts and regulations that govern, among other things, environmental and socioeconomic impact assessments and statements, environmental management plans, emissions to the environment, environmental auditing and review, and mine closure and reclamation, to which the Company’s operations are subject. Additional provisions governing mine environmental management are provided in the Minerals and Mining Act, 2006, and Minerals and Mining Regulations, 2012.

 

The Company’s future mining, processing, development, and mineral exploration activities will also subject to various laws governing prospecting, development, production, taxes, labor standards, occupational health and safety, land rights of local people and other matters. New rules and regulations may be enacted, or existing rules and regulations may be modified and applied in a manner that could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

 

Market, Customers, and Distribution Methods

 

Although there can be no assurance, large and well capitalized markets are readily available for all metals and precious metals throughout the world. A very sophisticated futures market for the pricing and delivery of future production also exists. The price for metals is affected by a number of global factors, including economic strength and resultant demand for metals for production, fluctuating supplies, mining activities and production by others in the industry, and new and or reduced uses for subject metals.

 

The mining industry is highly speculative and of a very high-risk nature. As such, mining activities involve a high degree of risk, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. Few mining projects actually become operating mines.

 

The mining industry is subject to a number of factors, including intense industry competition, high susceptibility to economic conditions (such as price of metal, foreign currency exchange rates, and capital and operating costs), and political conditions (which could affect such things as import and export regulations, foreign ownership restrictions). Furthermore, the mining activities are subject to all hazards incidental to mineral exploration, development and production, as well as risk of damage from earthquakes, any of which could result in work stoppages, damage to or loss of property and equipment and possible environmental damage. Hazards such as unusual or unexpected geological formations and other conditions are also involved in mineral exploration and development.

 

Competition

 

The mineral exploration industry is highly competitive. We are a new and exploration stage company and have a weak competitive position in the industry. We compete with junior and senior mineral exploration companies, independent producers and institutional and individual investors who are actively seeking to acquire mineral exploration properties throughout the world together with the equipment, labor and materials required to operate on those properties. Competition for the acquisition of mineral exploration interests is intense with many mineral exploration leases or concessions available in a competitive bidding process in which we may lack the technological information or expertise available to other bidders.

Table of Contents

 

Many of the mineral exploration companies with which we compete for financing and for the acquisition of mineral exploration properties have greater financial and technical resources than those available to us. Accordingly, these competitors may be able to spend greater amounts on acquiring mineral exploration interests of merit or on exploring or developing their mineral exploration properties. This advantage could enable our competitors to acquire mineral exploration properties of greater quality and interest to prospective investors who may choose to finance their additional exploration and development. Such competition could adversely impact our ability to attain the financing necessary for us to acquire further mineral exploration interests or explore and develop our current or future mineral exploration properties.

 

We also compete with other junior mineral exploration companies for financing from a limited number of investors that are prepared to invest in such companies. The presence of competing junior mineral exploration companies may impact our ability to raise additional capital in order to fund our acquisition or exploration programs if investors perceive that investments in our competitors are more attractive based on the merit of their mineral exploration properties or the price of the investment opportunity. In addition, we compete with both junior and senior mineral exploration companies for available resources, including, but not limited to, professional geologists, land specialists, engineers, camp staff, helicopters, float planes, mineral exploration supplies and drill rigs.

 

General competitive conditions may be substantially affected by various forms of energy legislation and/or regulation introduced from time to time by the governments of Ghana, the United States and other countries, as well as factors beyond our control, including international political conditions, overall levels of supply and demand for mineral exploration.

 

In the face of competition, we may not be successful in acquiring, exploring or developing profitable gold or mineral properties or interests, and we cannot give any assurance that suitable gold or mineral properties or interests will be available for our acquisition, exploration or development. Despite this, we hope to compete successfully in the gold or mineral industry by:

 

 

·

keeping our costs low;

 

 

 

 

·

relying on the strength of our management’s contacts; and

 

 

 

 

·

using our size and experience to our advantage by adapting quickly to changing market conditions or responding swiftly to potential opportunities.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

None. From time to time, we are subject to various legal proceedings, including lawsuits, which arise out of, and are incidental to, the conduct of our business. We are not aware of any threatened or pending litigation.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

 

Description of Securities

 

Our authorized capital stock consists of 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock of which NIL have been designated.

 

Common Stock

 

Of the authorized common stock, 47,994,825 shares are outstanding as of September 30, 2022, and 51,201,265 as of September 30, 2021. The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends from our funds legally available therefor only when, as and if declared by our Board, and are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets available for distribution to holders of our common stock upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our affairs. Holders of our common stock do not have any preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters which they are entitled to vote upon at meetings of stockholders or upon actions taken by written consent pursuant to Nevada corporate law. The holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which mean that the holders of a plurality of the outstanding shares can elect all of our directors. All of the shares of our common stock currently issued and outstanding are fully- paid and nonassessable. No dividends have been paid to holders of our common stock since our incorporation, and no cash dividends are anticipated to be declared or paid in the reasonably foreseeable future.

 

Preferred Stock

 

There are no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding.

The stock transfer agent for our securities is Vstock Transfer, LLC, 18 Lafayette Place, Woodmere, NY 11598 

 

Market Information

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets under the trading symbol “GKIN”. The OTC Markets is generally considered to be a less active and efficient market than the NASDAQ Global Market, the NASDAQ Capital Market or any national exchange and will not provide investors with the liquidity that the NASDAQ Global Market, the NASDAQ Capital Market or a national exchange would offer. Since being listed on the OTC Markets our common stock has only had limited trading volume. We currently trade on the OTCQB.

 

As there is only a limited public trading market for our securities and a regular trading market may not develop, or if developed, may not be sustained. A stockholder in all likelihood, therefore, will not be able to resell his or her securities should he or he desire to do so when eligible for public resale. Furthermore, it is unlikely that a lending institution will accept our securities as pledged collateral for loans unless a regular trading market develops. We have no plans, proposals, arrangements, or understandings with any person with regard to the development of a trading market in any of our securities.

 

Market Price of and Dividends on Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

 

Our common stock trades on the OTC Pink Market Place under the symbol “GKIN.” On December 3, 2020, FINRA to declared effective our corporate action to change the Company’s OTC trading symbol from ISRN to GKIN and change our name to “Guskin Gold Corp.” from Inspired Builders, Inc. Trading under the new ticker symbol began at market opening December 4, 2020. The Company’s CUSIP changed to 40330L100.

Trades in our common stock may be subject to Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act, which imposes requirements on broker/dealers who sell securities subject to the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For transactions covered by the rule, broker/dealers must make a special suitability determination for purchasers of the securities and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction before the sale.

 

Penny Stock Considerations

 

Our shares likely will be “penny stocks” as that term is generally defined in the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder to mean equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. Our shares thus will be subject to rules that impose sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who engage in certain transactions involving a penny stock.

 

Under the penny stock regulations, a broker-dealer selling a penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or accredited investor must make a special suitability determination regarding the purchaser and must receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. Generally, an individual with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or an income exceeding $200,000 individually or $300,000 together with his or her spouse is considered an accredited investor. In addition, under the penny stock regulations the broker-dealer is required to:

 

 

·

Deliver, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt;

 

 

 

 

·

Disclose commissions payable to the broker-dealer and our registered representatives and current bid and offer quotations for the securities;

 

 

 

 

·

Send monthly statements disclosing recent price information pertaining to the penny stock held in a customer’s account, the account’s value and information regarding the limited market in penny stocks; and

 

 

 

 

·

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, prior to conducting any penny stock transaction in the customer’s account.

 

Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may encounter difficulties in their attempt to sell shares of our Common Stock, which may affect the ability of Selling Stockholders or other holders to sell their shares in the secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of our securities if our securities become publicly traded. In addition, the liquidity for our securities may be decreased, with a corresponding decrease in the price of our securities. Our shares in all probability will be subject to such penny stock rules and our stockholders will, in all likelihood, find it difficult to sell their securities.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

This discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting the operating results, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows of the Company for the three month period ended December 31, 202. The discussion and analysis that follows should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and the notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Except for historical information, the matters discussed in this section are forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties and are based upon judgments concerning various factors that are beyond the Company’s control. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report.

 

Overview

 

On September 22, 2020, Inspired Builders, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Guskin Gold Corporation, a Nevada limited liability company (“GGC”), and the controlling stockholders of GGC (the “GGC Shareholders”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired One Hundred Percent (100%) the issued and outstanding equity interest of GGC from the GGC Shareholders (the “GGC Shares”) and in exchange the Company issued to GGC an aggregate of Twenty-Eight Million Two Hundred Thousand (28,200,000) shares of restricted common stock of the Company.

 

As a result of the acquisition, we acquired all of the business operations and will continue the existing business operations of GGC as a wholly-owned subsidiary of our publicly-traded company.

As the result of this acquisition and the change in business and operations of the Company, a discussion of the past financial results of the Company is not pertinent, and under applicable accounting principles the historical financial results of GGC, the accounting acquirer, prior to the acquisition are considered the historical financial results of the Company.

 

The Company’s fiscal year end is September 30.

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic, and it continues to spread throughout the United States and the rest of the world with different geographical locations impacted more than others. The outbreak of COVID-19 and public and private sector measures to reduce its transmission, such as the imposition of social distancing and orders to work-from-home, stay-at-home and shelter-in-place, have had a minimal impact on our day to day operations. However, this could impact our operations as other businesses have had to adjust, reduce or suspend their operating activities. The extent of the impact will vary depending on the duration and severity of the economic and operational impacts of COVID-19. The Company is unable to predict the ultimate impact at this time.

Table of Contents

 

The following discussion highlights GGC’s results of operations and the principal factors that have affected its financial condition as well as its liquidity and capital resources for the periods described and provides information that management believes is relevant for an assessment and understanding of the statements of financial condition and results of operations presented herein. The following discussion and analysis are based on the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements contained in this report, which were prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. You should read the discussion and analysis together with such consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto.

 

Results of Operations

 

For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2022 and for Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2021.

 

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, we incurred operating expenses of $989,467. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, we incurred operating expenses of $3,007,867. The decrease in operating expenses is attributable to the absence of stock-based compensation of $2,593,500 which was paid in 2021.

The increase in net income is attributable to the absence of stock-based compensation in the amount of $2,593,500 which was paid in 2021, in addition to a $18,346,717 increase in derivative value resulting in a gain on derivative value of $8,041,824 during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022.

We used $599,790 of cash in our operating activities during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. These are attributable to our net income adjusted by the non-cash items of $329,500 for the fair value of shares issued for services, $89,732 for amortization of debt discount, $8,041,824 change in fair value of derivative liability and $60,000 of in-kind contribution of services and $10,050 of depreciation expense. We used $242,117 of cash in our operating activities during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021 These are attributable to our net loss adjusted by the non-cash items of $2,593,500 for the fair value of shares issued for services, $79,236 for amortization of debt discount, $10,304,893 change in fair value of derivative liability and $50,000 of in-kind contribution of services.

Cash Flows Provided by Investing Activities

 

We used $145,307 cash investment in machinery and equipment during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. We provided $5,426 non cash investment in mineral rights during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021.

 

Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities

 

We received a total of $751,763 in financing, consisting of $4,300 from the issuances of loans payable from related parties, $404,500 from notes payable, $267,963 from convertible notes, and a common stock subscriptions in the amount of $75,000 during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. We received $228,967 from the issuances of loans payable from related parties totaling $149,357 and a common stock subscriptions in the amount of $110,000 during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021.

 

Going Concern and Management’s Liquidity Plans

 

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has a net income of $6,928,874 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. In addition, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $6,549,269 and a working capital deficit of $4,802,191 as of September 30, 2022.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and is dependent on debt and equity financing to fund its operations. Management of the Company is making efforts to raise additional funding. While management of the Company believes that it will be successful in its capital formation and planned operating activities, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional equity capital or be successful in the development and commercialization of the products it develops or initiates collaboration agreements thereon. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying 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.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic could have an impact on our ability to obtain financing to fund the operations. The Company is unable to predict the ultimate impact at this time.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States (GAAP) 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 year. The more significant areas requiring the use of estimates include asset impairment, stock-based compensation, and future income tax amounts. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions considered to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from the estimates.

 

We believe the following is among the most critical accounting policies that impact or consolidated financial statement. We suggest that our significant accounting policies, as described in our consolidated financial statements in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, be read in conjunction with this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, our Chief executive officer and Chief financial officer, conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer has concluded that, based on the material weaknesses discussed below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Act Commission’s rules and forms and that our disclosure controls are not effectively designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

 

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records, that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

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

 

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at September 30, 2022. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). Based on that assessment under those criteria, management has determined that, as of September 30, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.

 

 
18

Table of Contents

 

Our internal controls are not effective for the following reasons: (i) due to the size of the Company and available resources, there are limited personnel to assist with the accounting and financial reporting function, which results in a lack of segregation of duties and, (ii) the Company does not have an audit committee with a financial expert, and thus the Company lacks the board oversight role within the financial reporting process.

 

In order to mitigate the foregoing material weakness, we have engaged an outside accounting consultant with significant experience in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP to assist us in the preparation of our financial statements to ensure that these financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of this action and make any changes that our management deems appropriate.

 

We would need to hire additional staff to provide greater segregation of duties. Currently, it is not feasible to hire additional staff to obtain optimal segregation of duties. Management will continue to reassess this matter to determine whether improvement in segregation of duty is feasible. In addition, we would need to expand our board to include independent members.

 

Going forward, we intend to evaluate our processes and procedures and, where practicable and resources permit, implement changes in order to have more effective controls over financial reporting.

 

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of change in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Since inception, we have not had a class of equity securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Hence, compliance with Section 16(a) thereof by our officers and directors was not required.

 

Risk Oversight

 

Effective risk oversight is an important priority of the Board of Directors. Because risks are considered in virtually every business decision, the Board of Directors discusses risk throughout the year generally or in connection with specific proposed actions. The Board of Directors’ approach to risk oversight includes understanding the critical risks in the Company’s business and strategy, evaluating the Company’s risk management processes, allocating responsibilities for risk oversight among the full Board of Directors, and fostering an appropriate culture of integrity and compliance with legal responsibilities.

 

Corporate Governance

 

The Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavors to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the SEC and in other public communications made by the Company; and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules, and regulations. The Company has not formally adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that governs the Company’s employees, officers and Directors as the Company is not required to do so.

 

In lieu of an Audit Committee, the Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results, and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Company’s financial statements and other services provided by the Company’s independent public accountants. The Board of Directors reviews the Company’s internal accounting controls, practices, and policies.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the shareholders and the board of directors of Guskin Gold Corporation

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Guskin Gold Corporation as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 4 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a significant accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company continues to experience negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 4. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting 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.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

FOR THE FISCAL YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 2021

 

Note 1 – Organization and basis of accounting

 

Basis of Presentation and Organization

 

Guskin Gold Corp. (fka Inspired Builders, Inc.) (the “Company”, “Guskin”, “We”, and “Us”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada in February 2010. Until August 15, 2017, the Company was directing its focus on acquiring, investing in, developing and managing real estate properties and related investments. On August 15, 2017, pursuant to a change in control transaction, we relocated to Miami, Florida and ceased all operations as a real estate company.

 

On January 16, 2020, Santa Alba, LLC sold the 956,440 shares of common stock to Custodian Ventures, LLC for an aggregate purchase price of $145,000. At this point there was a change of control of the Company and Kai Ming Zhao resigned as President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director and David Lazar was appointed as President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director.

 

On April 30, 2020, Custodian Ventures, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (“CVL”) and the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with U Green Enterprise, a Ghana corporation (the “Purchaser”). The Agreement closed upon execution on April 30, 2020 (“Closing”). Pursuant to the Agreement, CVL agreed to sell and Purchaser agreed to purchase 956,440 restricted common stock shares of the Company (the “Shares”), representing approximately 94.6% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. Pursuant to the Agreement, Purchaser agreed to pay CVL as follows: (i) $157,640 payable at the Closing in exchange for the Shares, and (ii) to repay the note outstanding to CVL in amount of $67,360 immediately following the Closing. The Agreement resulted in a change of control of the Company and David Lazar resigned effective immediately as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole director and Edward Somuah was appointed as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole director.

 

Guskin Gold Corporation (“GGC”) was incorporated in May 28, 2020 in the state of Nevada. GGC’s business activity is the early-stage development of a business focusing on the acquisition of gold properties, and the exploration and potential development of small-scale gold mining operations in the Republic of Ghana, West Africa.

 

On September 3, 2020, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with GGC, and the controlling stockholders of GGC (the “GGC Shareholders”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired One Hundred Percent (100%) the issued and outstanding equity interest of GGC from the GGC Shareholders (the “GGC Shares”) and in exchange the Company issued to GGC an aggregate of Twenty-Eight Million Two Hundred Thousand (28,200,000) shares of restricted common stock of the Company.

 

The Share Exchange is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization under U.S. GAAP as the Share Exchange results in a change of control of the Company.

Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, GGC and Guskin Gold Ghana #1 Limited from June 02, 2021, inception date. All intercompany accounts, balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation as at September 30, 2022.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of reporting within the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all cash on hand, cash accounts not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of 90 days or less to be cash and cash equivalents. There were cash equivalents of $12,710 at September 30, 2022 and $6,044 cash equivalents at September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2022, $0 was held with an escrow agent.

 

Earnings (Loss) per Share

 

In accordance with accounting guidance now codified as FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $134,732 in convertible debt which if exercised would convert into 32,900,000 and as of September 30, 2021, and $45,000 in convertible debt which if exercised would convert into 4,500,000 shares of common stock.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the assumptions used in valuation of equity-based transactions, valuation of derivative liabilities and valuation of deferred taxes.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company accounts for revenue under Accounts Standard Codification (“ASC”) ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients.

The Company has only recently changed its business focus to its current business of exploration, development, production, and export of gold in Ghana, and to smartly find, build, and operate profitable gold and precious metal properties. Consequently, we have only limited operating history and an unproven business strategy, no current properties and prospects that have yet to be developed. As such, no revenue has been recognized to date.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

We review and evaluate our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Asset impairment is considered to exist if the total estimated undiscounted pretax future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset. In estimating future cash flows, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there is identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of future cash flows from other asset groups. An impairment loss is measured by discounted estimated future cash flows and recorded by reducing the asset’s carrying amount to fair value. Future cash flows are estimated based on estimated quantities of recoverable minerals, expected gold prices (considering current and historical prices, trends, and related factors), production levels, operating costs, capital requirements and reclamation costs, all based on life-of-mine plans.

 

Existing proven and probable reserves and value beyond proven and probable reserves, including mineralization other than proven and probable reserves are included when determining the fair value of mine site asset groups at acquisition and, subsequently, in determining whether the assets are impaired. The term “recoverable minerals” refers to the estimated amount of gold, silver, lead, and zinc that will be obtained after taking into account losses during ore processing and treatment. Estimates of recoverable minerals from exploration stage mineral interests are risk adjusted based on management’s relative confidence in such materials. The ability to achieve the estimated quantities of recoverable minerals from exploration stage mineral interests involves further risks in addition to those risk factors applicable to mineral interests where proven and probable reserves have been identified, due to the lower level of confidence that the identified mineralized material could ultimately be mined economically. Assets classified as exploration potential have the highest level of risk that the carrying value of the asset can be ultimately realized, due to the still lower level of geological confidence and economic modeling.

 

Gold prices are volatile and affected by many factors beyond the Company’s control, including prevailing interest rates and returns on other asset classes, expectations regarding inflation, speculation, currency values, governmental decisions regarding precious metals stockpiles, global and regional demand and production, political and economic conditions and other factors may affect the key assumptions used in the Company’s impairment testing. Various factors could impact our ability to achieve forecasted production levels from proven and probable reserves. Additionally, production, capital and reclamation costs could differ from the assumptions used in the cash flow models used to assess impairment. Actual results may vary from the Company’s estimates and result in additional Impairment of Long-lived Assets.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Under FASB ASC Topic 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences.

 

The Company maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. The Company establishes a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset and taking into consideration the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the current period. Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carry-forward period under the Federal tax laws.

 

Changes in circumstances, such as the Company generating taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about the reliability of the related deferred tax asset. Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimate.

Fair Value of Financial Investments

 

ASC 825, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments. ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2022 and 2021.

 

Authoritative literature provides a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring 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 as follows:

 

Level 1 - Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

The respective carrying values of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximate their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, convertible notes, loans payable, and notes payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments due to their short-term maturities.

 

We account for derivative liability at fair value on a recurring basis under level 3 at September 30, 2022 and 2021 (see Note 9).

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 addresses all forms of share-based payment awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans and stock incentive shares. Under ASC 718 awards result in a cost that is measured at fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest and will result in a charge to operations.

 

Derivative Instrument Liability

 

The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with ASC 815, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other financial instruments or contracts and requires recognition of all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value, regardless of hedging relationship designation. Accounting for changes in fair value of the derivative instruments depends on whether the derivatives qualify as hedging relationships and the types of relationships designated are based on the exposures hedged. At September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had a derivative liability of $3,296,143 and $11,070,004, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU No. 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current U.S. GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument and more convertible preferred stock will be reported as a single equity instrument, with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for the exception. In addition, ASU No. 2020-06 simplifies the diluted earnings per share (EPS) calculation in certain areas. ASU No. 2020-06 is effective for public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, ASU No. 2020-06 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. An entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting pronouncement on its financial statements.

 

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not or in management’s opinion will not have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 3 – Reverse Merger

 

On September 03, 2020, the Company and its controlling stockholders entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange”) with GGC and the shareholders of GGC. GGC’ current plan of operation consists of identifying, assessing and vetting various gold and mineral properties, specifically focusing on gold properties and the exploration and potential development of small-scale gold mining operations in the Republic of Ghana, West Africa.

 

At the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange (the “Closing”), in exchange for 28,200,000 shares of GGC’ common stock which represents 100% of the currently issued and outstanding capital stock of GGC, the Company will issue 28,200,000 newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock to the GGC’ shareholders, representing approximately 96.54% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock of the Company upon Closing. As a result of the Share Exchange, GGC shall become the Company’ wholly owned subsidiary, and the Company shall acquire the business and operations of GGC. The Closing of the Share Exchange is subject to certain conditions, including the approval of the Company’s shareholders. The Share Exchange closed September 22, 2020. 

 

For accounting purposes, GGC is considered to be the acquiring company and the Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization of the Company by GGC because (i) GGC’ shareholders own approximately 96.54% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock immediately following the effective time of the Share Exchange, and (ii) GGC’ management holds all key positions in the management of the combined company following the Closing. Under reverse recapitalization accounting, the assets and liabilities of the Company are recorded, as of the Closing, at their fair value which approximates its book value because of the short-term nature of the instruments. No goodwill or intangible assets were recognized. Consequently, the financial statements of GGC reflect the operations of the acquirer for accounting purposes together with a deemed issuance of shares, equivalent to the shares held by the former stockholders of the legal acquirer and a recapitalization of the equity of the accounting acquirer.

 

The following is the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed by GGC in the Share Exchange:

 

Total Assets assumed

 

$27,502

 

Total Liabilities assumed

 

 

(2,202,101 )

Net Liabilities assumed

Note 4 – Going Concern

 

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has net income of $6,896,041 and net losses of $13,406,994 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 and for fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, respectively. In addition, the Company has accumulated deficit of $6,582,103 and $13,478,144 and working capital deficit of $4,835,024 and $11,679,115 as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and is dependent on debt and equity financing to fund its operations. Management of the Company is making efforts to raise additional funding. While management of the Company believes that it will be successful in its capital formation and planned operating activities, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional equity capital or be successful in the development and commercialization of the products it develops or initiates collaboration agreements thereon. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying 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.

 

Note 5 – Investment in mineral rights

 

On June 10, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company ratified entry into a Joint Venture & Partnership Agreement (the “JV Agreement”) with Africa Exploration & Minerals Group Limited, a company incorporated in Ghana (the “AEMG”), dated June 1, 2021, Additionally, AEMG granted to the Company an exclusive option to earn and acquire up to a 50% ownership interest in certain project, properties and concession located in the Country of Ghana in which AEMG has an interest (the “Ghana Option Interest”). The initial project that the Parties shall endeavor to undertake pursuant to the Partnership is approximately 1 square km or 247 acres of land, (which is approximately 61.75 Ghana acers) of the Shewn Edged Pink Concession (the “Concession”). The Parties intend this to be an unincorporated contractual joint venture in respect of the exploration, development, exploitation, and operation of the Concession. The Company has formed a wholly owned subsidiary incorporated in Ghana and duly authorized to conduct business in precious metals and in mining activities in Ghana named Guskin Gold Ghana #1 Limited. All operations relating to the Concession will be undertaken by Guskin Gold Ghana #1 Limited. The Company, through Guskin Gold Ghana #1 Limited now holds 25% non-controlling interest of the Shewn Edged Pink Concession. The JV is considered as an unincorporated legal entity for accounting purposes, in accordance with ASC 323, therefore the Company has elected to account for all activity related to the JV under proportional consolidation of the results of operations. The Company issued 250,000 restricted common shares the Company’s common stock, at a per share valuation of $0.0217 per share (the “Shares”) for a total fair value of $5,426. There are no proven mineral reserves on the Shewn Edged Pink Concession as of September 30, 2021. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2022 and for the fiscal year September 30, 2021, Guskin Gold advanced $14,000 and $67,500 to AEMG, respectively. Management evaluated the investment in mineral rights annually for impairment and determined that the total amount capitalized was impaired. An impairment loss totaling $14,000 and $81,923 was recorded during fiscal years ended September 30, 2022 and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, respectively.   

 

In the beginning of November 2021, Company management, while visiting our operations in Ghana, noticed various accounting discrepancies and expenses irregularities relating to AEMG’s activities at the Concession. Additionally, during this time the Company was informed that, on information and belief, AEMG was not the rightful owner of the Concession and in fact had no legal right to enter the Partnership with the Company. Thereafter, the Company met with AEMG on several occasions seeking to resolve these matters in a manner that would be mutually agreeable to both parties. All attempts, as of the date of this report, to resolve the dispute amicably have been unsuccessful. The Company has retained Ghanaian counsel to represent and protect its interests relating to the disputed funds and our ongoing operation in Ghana. Also, on advice of counsel, the Company has turned all evidence of the foregoing over to the proper authorities and currently the matter is under review by the lead prosecutors in Accra, Ghana.

Note 8 – Income taxes

 

The Company provides for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. FASB ASC 740 requires the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect currently.

 

FASB ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance, if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In the Company’s opinion, it is uncertain whether they will generate sufficient taxable income in the future to fully utilize the net deferred tax asset.

Pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, or IRC, annual use of the Company’s net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards may be limited in the event a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50% occurs within a three-year period. The Company determined that because of various stock issuances used to finance its operations, an ownership change as defined in the provisions of Section 382 of the IRC occurred on September 22, 2020. Such ownership change resulted in annual limitations on the utilization of tax attributes, including NOL carryforwards and tax credits. The Company estimates that $950,000 of its NOL carryforwards were effectively eliminated under Section 382 for federal income tax purposes. A portion of the remaining NOL carryforwards limited by Section 382 will become available each year. Limitations on NOL carryforwards relating to change in ownership may be imposed during the year ended September 30, 2022. The Company’s Section 382 estimated analysis has not been completed through September 30, 2022.

Note 10 – Derivative liability

 

The Company has determined that the variable conversion prices under its convertible notes caused the embedded conversion feature to be a financial derivative. The derivative instruments were valued at loan origination date, date of debt conversion and at September 30, 2022. The fair values of the derivative liabilities related to the conversion options of these notes was estimated on the transaction dates (loan original date and reporting date) using the Black Scholes option pricing model, under the following assumptions:

The risk –free interest rate was determined by management using the one-month Treasury bill yield as of the valuation dates.

(2)

The expected dividend yield is based on the Company’s current dividend yield as the best estimate of projected dividend yield for periods within the expected term of the share options and similar instruments.

(3)

The volatility was determined by referring to the average historical volatility of a peer group of public companies because we do not have sufficient trade history to determine our historical volatility.

(4)

The exercise term is the remaining contractual term of the convertible instrument at the valuation date.

Note 11 – Commitment and Contingencies

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic, and it continues to spread throughout the United States and the rest of the world with different geographical locations impacted more than others. The outbreak of COVID-19 and public and private sector measures to reduce its transmission, such as the imposition of social distancing and orders to work-from-home, stay-at-home and shelter-in-place, have had a minimal impact on our day to day operations. However, this could impact our efforts to enter into a business combination as other businesses have had to adjust, reduce or suspend their operating activities. The extent of the impact will vary depending on the duration and severity of the economic and operational impacts of COVID-19. The Company is unable to predict the ultimate impact at this time.

On June 10, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company ratified entry into a Joint Venture & Partnership Agreement (the “JV Agreement”) with Africa Exploration & Minerals Group Limited, a company incorporated in Ghana (the “AEMG”), dated June 1, 2021, which sets forth the terms and conditions of a joint venture and partnership (the “Partnership”) between AEMG and the Company relating to precious metal, minerals and mining exploration activities in the Country of Ghana. Additionally, AEMG granted to the Company an exclusive option to earn and acquire up to a 50% ownership interest in certain project, properties and concession located in the Country of Ghana in which AEMG has an interest (the “Ghana Option Interest”). The initial project that the Parties shall endeavor to undertake pursuant to the Partnership is approximately 1 square km or 247 acres of land, (which is approximately 61.75 Ghana acers) of the Shewn Edged Pink Concession (the “Concession”). The Parties intend this to be an unincorporated contractual joint venture in respect of the exploration, development, exploitation and operation of the Concession. Each additional project relating to the Ghana Option Interest, and agreed to be made part of, and undertaken by the Partnership, shall be governed by individual “Operating Agreements” setting forth the terms and conditions relating to each project specifically.

 

The specific terms and conditions relating to the operations of the Concession are set forth in that certain Operating Agreement (“Operating Agreement”), which is attached to the JV Agreement as Schedule A.

 

The Company has formed a wholly owned subsidiary incorporated in Ghana and duly authorized to conduct business in precious metals and in mining activities in Ghana named Guskin Gold Ghana #1 Limited. All operations relating to the Concession will be undertaken by Guskin Gold Ghana #1 Limited.

 

As consideration for the Partnership and the Ghana Option Interest, the Company shall advance to AEMG, or other parties as directed by AEMG, and as mutually agreed to by the Parties, a financing (“Financing”) in the aggregate of Five Hundred Thousand ($500,000) dollars, to be remitted in accordance with a work program and budget. Such funds advanced as part of the Financing shall not be considered a capital contribution relating to the operations of the Partnership but shall be a debt due from the operations of the Partnership to the Company which shall be repaid from proceeds derived from operations, or upon the dissolution and liquidation of the operation. Additionally, the Company shall issue an aggregate 2,000,000 restricted common shares the Company’s common stock, at a per share valuation to be determined based on separate performance obligations (the “Shares”). Such Shares shall be earned and issued based on reaching and completion of certain milestones, which are fully set forth in the JV Agreement and Operating Agreement. In accordance with the JV Agreement, AEMG received approximately 250,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $0.0217 per share for a total fair value of $5,426 were issued to AEMG. In the beginning of November 2021, Company management, while visiting our operations in Ghana, noticed various accounting discrepancies and expenses irregularities relating to AEMG’s activities at the Concession. Additionally, during this time the Company was informed that, on information and belief, AEMG was not the rightful owner of the Concession and in fact had no legal right to enter the Partnership with the Company. Thereafter, the Company met with AEMG on several occasions seeking to resolve these matters in a manner that would be mutually agreeable to both parties. All attempts, as of the date of this report, to resolve the dispute amicably have been unsuccessful. The Company has retained Ghanaian counsel to represent and protect its interests relating to the disputed funds and our ongoing operation in Ghana. Also, on advice of counsel, the Company has turned all evidence of the foregoing over to the proper authorities and currently the matter is under review by the lead prosecutors in Accra, Ghana.
