NOTES TO
CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF
OCTOBER 31, 2010
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE
1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION
(A) Basis of
Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include
all the information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial
position and results of operations.
It is
management's opinion, however that all material adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair
financial statements presentation. The results for the interim period
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
year.
Gold
American Mining, Corp. (f/k/a Silver America, Inc. and The Golf Alliance
Corporation) (an exploration stage company) (the "Company") was incorporated
under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 2, 2007. Gold American
Mining, Inc. is a precious metal mineral acquisition, exploration and
development company.
Gold
American Mining Corp. (the ‘Company’) was incorporated under the laws of the
State of Nevada on July 2, 2007 under the name Golf Alliance Corporation. Golf
Alliance Corporation pursued its original business plan to provide opportunities
for golfers to play on private golf courses normally closed to them due to the
membership requirements of the private clubs. During the year ended July 31,
2010, the Company decided to redirect its business focus toward precious metal
mineral acquisition and exploration.
Activities
during the exploration stage include developing the business plan and raising
capital.
The
Company is in the exploration stage in accordance with Financial Accounting
Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 915
(formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No.7, “Accounting
and Reporting by Exploration Stage Enterprises”).
On March
5, 2010, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to (1) to change its
name to Silver America, Inc. and (2) increased its authorized common stock from
100,000,000 to 500,000,000.
On June
23, 2010, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to change its name
to Gold American Mining Corp.

NOTES TO
CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF
OCTOBER 31, 2010
(UNAUDITED)
(B) Use of
Estimates
In
preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and expenses
during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
(C) Cash and Cash
Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At October
31, 2010 and July 31, 2010, the Company had no cash equivalents.
(D)
Exploration and Development Costs
Costs of
acquiring mining properties and any exploration and development costs are
expensed as incurred unless proven and probable reserves exist and the property
is a commercially mineable property in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards
Codification No. 930, Extractive Activities - Mining. Mine development costs
incurred either to develop new gold and silver deposits, expand the capacity of
operating mines, or to develop mine areas substantially in advance of current
production are capitalized. Costs incurred to maintain current production or to
maintain assets on a standby basis are charged to operations. Costs of
abandoned projects are charged to operations upon abandonment. The Company
evaluates, at least quarterly, the carrying value of capitalized mining costs
and related property, plant and equipment costs, if any, to determine if
these costs are in excess of their net realizable value and if a permanent
impairment needs to be recorded. The periodic evaluation of carrying value of
capitalized costs and any related property, plant and equipment costs are based
upon expected future cash flows and/or estimated salvage value.
The
Company capitalizes costs for mining properties by individual property and
defers such costs for later amortization only if the prospects for economic
productions are reasonably certain.
Capitalized
costs are expensed in the period when the determination has been made that
economic production does not appear reasonably certain.
During
the three months ended October 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded
exploration costs of $623,952 and $0, respectively.
(E) Property and
Equipment
The
Company values property and equipment at cost and depreciates these assets using
the straight-line method over their expected useful life. The Company uses a
five year life for computer equipment.

NOTES TO
CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF
OCTOBER 31, 2010
(UNAUDITED)
In
accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 360, Property, Plant
and Equipment, the Company carries long-lived assets at the lower of the
carrying amount or fair value. Impairment is evaluated by estimating future
undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and
its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash
flow is less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss is
recognized. Fair value, for purposes of calculating impairment, is measured
based on estimated future cash flows, discounted at a market rate of
interest.
There
were no impairment losses recorded during the three months ended October 31,
2010 and 2009, respectively.
(F) Website
Development
The
Company has adopted the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification No.
350 Intangible-Goodwills and
Other. Costs incurred in the planning stage of a website are expensed,
while costs incurred in the development state are capitalized and amortized over
the estimated three year life of the asset.
There
were no impairment losses recorded during the three months ended October 31,
2010 and 2009, respectively.
(G) Loss Per
Share
Basic and
diluted net loss per common share is computed based upon the weighted average
common shares outstanding as defined by FASB Accounting Standards Codification
Topic 260, “Earnings Per
Share.” As of October 31, 2010 and 2009 there
were 593,030 and 0, respectively, warrants issued and outstanding that were not
included in the computation of earnings per share because their inclusion is
anti-dilutive.

(I) Income Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC
740-10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date.
(J)
Stock-Based Compensation
In
December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Accounting Standards Codification No.
718, Compensation – Stock
Compensation. Under FASB Accounting Standards Codification No.
718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based
compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the
costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are
required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include
stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share
appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such,
compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair
value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the
respective vesting periods of the option grant. The Company applies
this statement prospectively.
Equity
instruments (“instruments”) issued to other than employees are recorded on the
basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB Accounting
Standards Codification No. 718. FASB Accounting Standards Codification No.
505, Equity Based
Payments to Non-Employees defines the measurement date and
recognition period for such instruments. In general, the measurement date
is when either a (a) performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the
earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments
are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a
period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined
in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
(K) Business
Segments

Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not
presented.
(L) Fair Value of Financial
Instruments

NOTES TO
CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF
OCTOBER 31, 2010
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE
7 GOING
CONCERN
As
reflected in the accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements, the
Company is in the exploration stage with minimal operations, has a net loss
since inception of $2,242,435 and used cash in operations of $1,093,584 from
inception. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a
going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going
concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and
implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as
a going concern.
On March
5, 2010, the Company changed its intended business purpose to that of precious
metals mineral exploration, development and production. Management
believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding (see
Note 6) and continue to explore its mining rights provide the opportunity for
the Company to continue as a going concern.

2. Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
We are a
precious metal mineral acquisition, exploration and development company, formed
in Nevada on July 2, 2007. At the time of our incorporation, we were
incorporated under the name “The Golf Alliance Corporation,” and our original
business plan was to act as a service-based firm that would provide
opportunities for golfers to play on private courses normally closed to them
because of membership requirements. On February 12, 2010, Johannes
Petersen acquired the majority of the shares of our issued and outstanding
common stock in accordance with a stock purchase agreement by and between Mr.
Petersen and John Fahlberg. Further, on March 5, 2010, we effected a
name change to “Silver America, Inc.” and at the same time effected a 50-for-1
forward stock split and increased our authorized capital from 100,000,000 shares
of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of
preferred stock, par value $0.00001 per share, to 500,000,000 shares of common
stock, par value $0.00001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock,
par value $0.00001. In addition to the name change, we changed our intended
business purpose to that of precious metal mineral exploration, development and
production. Unless specifically stated otherwise, all share amounts
referenced herein, will refer to post-forward stock split share
amounts. On June 23, 2010, we effected a name change from Silver
America, Inc., to “Gold American Mining Corp.” in order to better reflect the
nature of our operations as a precious metal mining and exploration company,
with a more specific emphasis on gold exploration.
Our
primary business focus is to option, acquire, explore and develop precious
metals properties in North America. On April 26, 2010, we entered
into a definitive option agreement (“Guadalupe Option Agreement”) with Yale
Resources Ltd. (“Yale”) with respect to our acquisition of an exclusive option
(the “Option”) to purchase an undivided 90% interest in those two certain mining
concessions in Zacatecas State, Mexico, covering approximately 282.83 hectares
(the “Guadalupe Property”). The Guadalupe Option Agreement was
entered into pursuant to a binding letter of intent between the parties (the
“LOI”) dated March 5, 2010.
To
exercise the option, we must pay cash to Yale, issue restricted shares of
Company common stock to Yale, and fund exploration and development expenditures
on the Guadalupe Property. The cash payments contemplated under the
agreement total $900,000.00 and are to be distributed in installments from the
date of the LOI through December 30, 2013. The number of Company
shares to be issued to Yale total 1,000,000 and are to be distributed in
installments from the date of the definitive agreement through December 30,
2013. We are also obligated to fund a total of $2,000,000.00 worth of
exploration and development on the Guadalupe Property beginning June 30, 2011
and continuing through December 30, 2013. Upon the execution and
exercise of the Option, Yale will transfer a 90% undivided interest in the
Guadalupe Property to the Company. Yale will act as the operator for
the project, and should the earn-in be completed, Yale will retain a 10%
participating interest in the Guadalupe Property as well as a 2% NSR, which can
be bought out in its entirety for $2,000,000.
19
On April
28, 2010, we entered into a definitive option agreement (the “Keeno Strike
Option Agreement”) with four individuals (collectively, the “Optionor”) with
respect to our acquisition of an exclusive option (the “Keeno Option”) to
purchase an undivided 72% interest in those certain 12 mining claims and a mill
site claim containing approximately 245 acres, located in Clark County, Nevada
(“Keeno Property”). To exercise the Keeno Option, we must pay cash to
the Optionor, issue restricted shares of Company common stock to Optionor, and
fund exploration and development expenditures on the Keeno
Property. The cash payments contemplated under the agreement total
$272,000 to be paid in installments on or before June 30, 2010, such payments
having been completed as of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q. The number of Company shares to be issued to Optionor total 2,000,000
and are to be distributed in installments from the date of the definitive
agreement through October 31, 2011. The Company needs to fund a
minimum of $750,000 worth of exploration and development on the Keeno Property,
with at least $400,000 to be incurred or funded on or before April 30, 2011 and
$350,000 to be incurred or funded on or before April 30, 2012. Upon
our fulfillment of each of the above-referenced conditions and exercise of the
Keeno Option, the Optionor will transfer an undivided 72% interest in the Keeno
Property to us.
Further,
pursuant to the Keeno Strike Option Agreement, if, prior to the Option Deadline,
the work program provides evidence that there are at least 10,000,000 ounces of
indicated silver resources and/or 500,000 ounces of indicated gold resources on
the Keeno Property, such estimates to be evidenced by an independent third party
report, we must issue the Optionor an additional 3,000,000 shares of our common
stock. Should the earn-in be completed, the Optionor will retain a
28% interest in the Keeno Property as well as a 4% NSR. After our
completion of the initial work commitment and exercise of the Keeno Option, the
Optionor may elect to remain as a 28% carried joint venture partner or to offer
the Company the right to purchase the Optionor’s remaining 28% interest at a
fair market valuation, as determined by a valuation report prepared by an
independent third party mining engineer or qualified
geologist. Further, we will have the right to purchase 2% of the 4%
NSR retained by the Optionor for a purchase price of $20,000,000, or such pro
rata portion thereof.
Finally, on August 4, 2010, the Company and three individuals
collectively entered into a mineral property option agreement. The Company
acquired an option to obtain a 100% interest in an approximately 178 acres
property located in Opodepe Municipality, Sonora State, Mexico (the “La
Escondida Property”). To exercise the option the Company shall pay cash
and fund exploration and development expenditures on the La Escondida Property.
The cash payments contemplated in the agreement total $765,000 and are
distributed in installments from the date of the agreement through December 31,
2012. In addition to the above payment schedule, the Company will pay a 1%
royalty as a result of the exploitation activities or a $500,000 lump sum
payment upon the Company’s discretion.
Results
of Operations
Three-months ended October
31, 2010 compared to the three-months ended October 31, 2009
We had a
net loss of $784,393 for the three-months ended October 31, 2010, which was
$775,157 greater than the net loss of $9,236 for the three-months ended October
31, 2009. This change in our results over the two periods is primarily the
result of an increase in exploration costs at the Guadalupe and Keeno Strike
properties. We also experienced increases in professional fees and
administrative expenses during the period. The following table summarizes
key items of comparison and their related increase (decrease) for the
three-months ended October 31, 2010 and 2009:

Liquidity
And Capital Resources
Our
balance sheet as of October 31, 2010, reflects assets of
$426,568. Although we had cash in the amount of $246,574 and working
capital in the amount of $371,790 as of October 31, 2010, we do not have
sufficient working capital to enable us to carry out our stated plan of
operation for the next twelve months as we will require approximately $1,000,000
over that period.

We
anticipate generating losses and, therefore, may be unable to continue
operations in the future. If we require additional capital, we would have to
issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third
party.
Going
Concern Consideration
As
reflected in the accompanying financial statements, we are in the exploration
stage with no revenue generating operations and have a net loss since inception
of $2,242,435 and used cash in operations of $1,093,584 from inception. This
raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on
our ability to raise additional capital and implement our business
plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
On March
5, 2010, the Company changed its intended business purpose to that of precious
metals mineral exploration, development and production. Management
believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and
implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to
continue as a going concern.

Operating
Activities
Net cash
flow used in operating activities during the three-months ended October 31, 2010
was $460,424 – an increase of $452,831 from the $7,593 net cash outflow during
the three-months ended October 31, 2009. This increase in the cash
used in operating activities was primarily due to the acquisition and operations
on the Keeno Property and the Guadalupe Property.
Investing
Activities
Cash used
in investing activities during the three-months ended October 31, 2010 was
$2,099 – an increase of $2,099 when compared to the figures during the
three-months ended October 31, 2009. This increase in the cash used in investing
activities was primarily due to the purchase of computer equipment.
Financing
Activities
Financing
activities during the three-months ended October 31, 2010, provided $700,895 to
us, an increase of $697,895 from the $3,000 provided by financing activities
during the three-months ended October 31, 2009. During the three-months ended
October 31, 2010, we received $700,000 in proceeds from the issuance of common
stock, and $895 from net loans payable to related parties.
Our
financial commitments under the Guadalupe Option Agreement total $900,000 in
cash payments to Yale and the funding of a total of $2,000,000 worth of
exploration and development on the property before December 30, 2013. Our
financial commitments under the Keeno Strike Option Agreement total $272,000 in
cash payments to the Optionor on or before June 30, 2010 (paid), and the funding
of a minimum of $750,000 worth of exploration and development on the property,
with at least $400,000 to be incurred or funded on or before April 30, 2011 and
$350,000 to be incurred or funded on or before April 30, 2012.
On May 7,
2010, we entered into an Equity Issuance Agreement with ZUG Financing Group S.A.
(“ZUG”) wherein ZUG has agreed to advance us up to $7,500,000 until December 31,
2011. While we have arranged for advances of up to $7,500,000 from
ZUG, there can be no assurances that we will receive these funds from ZUG. As of
October 31, 2010, $1,000,000 has been advanced to the Company from ZUG financing
under the Equity Issuance Agreement.
Finally,
should we choose to exercise our option under the La Escondida Option Agreement,
our financial commitments total $765,000 in cash installment payments, of which
$40,000 has been paid, with the final payment of $400,000 being due on or before
December 23, 2012. In addition to the cash payments, should we
exercise our option on the La Escondida property, we must pay a 1% royalty as a
result of exploitation activities or a $500,000 lump sum cash payment, at our
discretion.

Critical Accounting
Policies
Our
financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States. Preparing
financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These
estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application of accounting
policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates
and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements
is critical to an understanding of our financials.
Costs of
acquiring mining properties and any exploration and development costs are
expensed as incurred unless proven and probable reserves exist and the property
is a commercially mineable property. Mine development costs incurred either to
develop new gold and silver deposits, expand the capacity of operating mines, or
to develop mine areas substantially in advance of current production are
capitalized. Costs incurred to maintain current production or to maintain assets
on a standby basis are charged to operations. Costs of abandoned projects are
charged to operations upon abandonment. The Company evaluates, at least
quarterly, the carrying value of capitalized mining costs and related property,
plant and equipment costs, if any, to determine if these costs are in excess of
their net realizable value and if a permanent impairment needs to be recorded.
The periodic evaluation of carrying value of capitalized costs and any related
property, plant and equipment costs are based upon expected future cash flows
and/or estimated salvage value.
The
Company capitalizes costs for mining properties by individual property and
defers such costs for later amortization only if the prospects for economic
productions are reasonably certain. Capitalized costs are expensed in the period
when the determination has been made that economic production does not appear
reasonably certain. As of October 31, 2010, none of our properties has proven
reserves.

4T. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our
management evaluated, with the participation of Mr. Johannes Petersen, who
currently serves as both Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive
Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls
and procedures are effective to ensure that information we are required to
disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii)
is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls and
procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is
accumulated and communicated to our management. Our disclosure
controls and procedures include components of our internal control over
financial reporting. Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of
our internal control over financial reporting is expressed at the level of
reasonable assurance that the control system, no matter how well designed and
operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the
control system’s objectives will be met.
Changes
in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There
have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that
occurred during the period covered by this quarterly report, that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.

including Section 4(2) and from various similar state exemptions.
Further,
