FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Annual Report contains certain forward-looking statements regarding management’s plans and objectives for future operations including plans and objectives relating to our planned marketing efforts and future economic performance. The forward-looking statements and associated risks set forth in this Annual Report include or relate to, among other things, (a) our growth strategies, (b) anticipated trends in the mining industry, (c) our ability to obtain and retain sufficient capital for future operations, and (d) our anticipated needs for working capital. These statements may be found under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations” and “Business,” as well as in this Annual Report generally. Actual events or results may differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, without limitation, the risks outlined under “Risk Factors” and matters described in this Annual Report generally. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report will in fact occur.
The forward-looking statements herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions described herein. The assumptions are based on judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, although we believe that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any such assumption could prove to be inaccurate and therefore there can be no assurance that the results contemplated in forward-looking statements will be realized. In addition, as disclosed elsewhere in the “Risk Factors” section of this annual report, there are a number of other risks inherent in our business and operations which could cause our operating results to vary markedly and adversely from prior results or the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Management decisions, including budgeting, are subjective in many respects and periodic revisions must be made to reflect actual conditions and business developments, the impact of which may cause us to alter marketing, capital investment and other expenditures, which may also materially adversely affect our results of operations. In light of significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking information included in this annual report, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives or plans will be achieved.
Some of the information in this annual report contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Any statement in this annual report that is not a statement of an historical fact constitutes a “forward-looking statement”. Further, when we use the words “may”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “plan”, “believe”, “seek”, “estimate”, “internal”, and similar words, we intend to identify statements and expressions that may be forward- looking statements. We believe it is important to communicate certain of our expectations to our investors. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause our future results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Many factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. You are accordingly cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Important factors that may cause our actual results to differ from such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the risk factors discussed herein.

PART I
As used in this annual report, “we”, “us”, “our”, “Bonanza”, “Company” or “our Company” refers to Bonanza Goldfields Corporation and all of its subsidiaries.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Overview
We are an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of gold mineral properties, directly or with a joint venture partner in North America. Our exploration target is to find exploitable minerals on our properties. Our success depends on achieving that target. There is the likelihood of our mineral claims containing little or no economic mineralization or reserves of gold and other minerals. There is the possibility that our claims do not contain any reserves and funds that we spend on exploration will be lost. Even if we complete our current exploration program and are successful in identifying a mineral deposit, we will be required to expend substantial funds to bring our claims to production. We are unable to assure you we will be able to raise the additional funds necessary to implement any future exploration or extraction program even if mineralization is found.
It is our objective to identify mineral prospect properties of merit, conduct preliminary exploration work, and if results are positive, to “prove up” mineral resources ultimately providing a strategic supply line to mid-tier mining companies in a world where we believe capital is transitioning to the safety of gold. Our management contends that this business model is timely in a world of financial and currency instability with escalating mineral demand.
Our areas of exploration are in geopolitically stable North American areas. Our three exploration stage projects are located in Arizona and Colorado, of which management believes have near-surface gold mineralization. Although Bonanza has interest in Red Mountain, Colorado and the Black Rock Basin, Arizona projects, management continues to focus all efforts on the flagship Tarantula Project, Congress, Arizona.
Bonanza Goldfields’ flagship Tarantula Project consists of 38 lode claims covering 600 acres of patented, private property claims and BLM claims in the Date Creek Mountains, Arizona consisting of both alluvial and mineralized quartz deposits. A Preliminary Geological Survey of the claims and the immediate region is now completed of the Tarantula Project , prepared by Auric Resources International, Inc. of Wickenburg, Arizona. Shareholders can access the report at Bonanza Goldfields' official website: www.bonanzagoldfields.com.
Highlights from the report include:
●
|
The large land package with widespread areas of anomalous gold values; proximity to the Congress Mine; large iron oxide rich quartz veins which exhibit mineralogic and structural similarities to the Congress, Niagara, Queen of the Hills, Golden Wave and other mineralized, economic vein systems in the area; and the presence of placer gold in widespread gravels indicates that the Tarantula Property may host a large, potentially economic gold deposit and undoubtedly represents an excellent exploration target with potential for both placer and lode gold production from auriferous placers and veins.
|
●
|
Although some preliminary testing has been done on portions of the property, the majority of the land package has virgin placer gravels and large quartz veins that have never been explored or tested. The geologic setting of the property is favorable for the concentration of placer gold in the local gravels that occur in drainage channels and elevated benches and for lode gold that occurs within the early Proterozoic granitic rocks as auriferous quartz fissure veins with locally abundant sulfides and iron oxides.
|
●
|
Auriferous quartz and quartz-sulfide veins occur on the Tarantula Property and many exhibit the same characteristics as those in the Congress Mine and other mines in the area. These veins ranged up to several feet in width and have strike lengths ranging from hundreds to thousands of feet.
|

Prior to commencing the survey, extensive samplings were analyzed locally at multiple depths demonstrating the potential for high grade gold findings throughout the property. Modern access for heavy equipment is already in place via Bonanza’s privately constructed roads, and rail is localized. The claims are directly adjacent to the world famous historic Congress Mine, Arizona. The Congress Mine operated between 1887 and 1959 producing, according to managements understanding, about 400,000 ounces of lode gold. Unique features appear ubiquitous throughout the immediate area, including greenstone dike extensions, placer gravel deposits, and vestiges of numerous pre-historic waterfalls. Additionally, lode gold possibilities exist due to the extensions of schist and mineralized quartz veins in the immediate area of the Congress Mine. Bonanza management believes the alluvial deposits originate from two ancient rivers that flowed in opposing directions during separate geological periods.
We expanded our flagship Tarantula Project with the acquisition of the Piedmont Mine, gold and silver mine in operation until 1940. The Piedmont Mine has been deemed by the Bonanza geological team a highly prospective addition to the Tarantula Project. The acquisition expands the Tarantula Project to 38 lode mining claims covering over 600 acres of contiguous property directly adjacent to the historic Congress Mine which produced over 400,000 ounces of lode gold between 1887 and 1959.b
The Black Rock Basin (BRB) Project claim group is currently comprised of 320 acres on BLM (“Bureau of Land Management”) ground in the southern part of the Vulture Mining District, Maricopa County, Arizona in the northeastern Belmont Mountains. The property is located along a twelve mile northwest mineralized trend where several gold and copper mines previously operated. Bulk sampling during Bonanza's reconnaissance reveals promising higher level gold values over six large target zones. Approximately 400 soil samples were taken on a surveyed grid. These samples were sent to Chemex Labs in Reno, Nevada and analyzed for 32 elements including gold, silver, copper, lead & zinc. The results obtained from this work indicate a minimum of six gold anomalies within the claim boundaries. Over ten bulk samples returned gold values in excess of 3400 ppb (0.10+ oz/ton), including 2% copper, 20% lead, 15% zinc and up to 7 ounces of silver per ton. Property within the BRB Project experienced minor prospecting during the early 1900's through numerous small prospect pits, shallow shafts, adits, and small tunnels. There is no formal record of production on the BRB property. The property is located approximately 80 miles west of Phoenix and 25 miles southwest of Wickenburg, Arizona, and is accessible year round. The BRB Project is situated within the lower hills and flats of the northern Belmont Mountain Range with elevations from 1900 feet to 2500 feet.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital
There is no historical financial information about us on which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are an exploration stage company and have not generated revenues from operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in the exploration of our property, and possible cost overruns due to increases in the cost of services. To become profitable and competitive, we must conduct the exploration of our properties before we start into production of any minerals we may find.

WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION
You are advised to read this Form 10-K in conjunction with other reports and documents that we file from time to time with the SEC. In particular, please read our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K that we file from time to time. You may obtain copies of these reports directly from us or from the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F. Street, N.E. Washington, D.C. 20549, and you may obtain information about obtaining access to the Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. In addition, the SEC maintains information for electronic filers at its website http://www.sec.gov.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following information about these risks, together with the other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, or the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). If any of the events anticipated by the risks described below occur, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected which could result in a decline in the market price of our common stock, causing you to lose all or part of your investment. Additionally, if other risks not presently known to us, or that we do not currently believe to be significant, occur or become significant, our financial condition and results of operations could suffer and the trading price of our common stock could decline.
The Report Of Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Contains Explanatory Language That Substantial Doubt Exists About Our Ability To Continue As A Going Concern
The independent auditor’s report on our financial statements contains explanatory language that substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to obtain sufficient financing in the near term or achieve profitability, then we would, in all likelihood, experience severe liquidity problems and may have to curtail our operations. If we curtail our operations, we may be placed into bankruptcy or undergo liquidation, the result of which will adversely affect the value of our common shares.
Because the probability of an individual prospect ever having reserves economically recoverable is extremely remote, any funds spent on exploration will probably be lost.
The probability of an individual prospect ever having economically recoverable reserves is extremely remote. In all probability, our properties do contain reserves. As such, any funds spent on exploration will probably be lost, our Company and its business operations could be adversely impacted and there would be a material adverse impact on our Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
We lack an operating history and have losses which we expect to continue into the future. As a result, we may have to suspend or cease activities.
We were incorporated in March 6, 2008 and we have not started our proposed business activities or realized any revenues. We have no operating history upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure can be made. Our net loss was $5,515,499 from inception to June 30, 2011. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon:
●
|
our ability to locate a profitable mineral property
|
●
|
our ability to generate revenues
|
●
|
our ability to reduce exploration costs.
|
6
Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods. This will happen because there are expenses associated with the research and exploration of our mineral properties. As a result, we may not generate revenues in the future. Failure to generate revenues will cause us to suspend or cease activities.
Because we will have to spend additional funds to determine if we have economically recoverable reserves, if we can't raise sufficient funds, we will have to cease operations.
Even if we complete our current exploration program and it is successful in identifying a mineral deposit, we will have to spend substantial funds on further drilling and engineering studies before we will know if we have a commercially viable mineral deposit, a reserve. If we do not have a commercially viable mineral reserve, it would have a material adverse impact on our Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
As we undertake exploration of our claims and interests, we will be subject to compliance of government regulation that may increase the anticipated time and cost of our exploration program.
There are several governmental regulations that materially restrict the exploration of minerals. We will be subject to the mining laws and regulations in force in the jurisdictions where our claims are located, and these laws and regulations may change over time. In order to comply with these regulations, we may be required to obtain work permits, post bonds and perform remediation work for any physical disturbance to land. While our planned budget for exploration programs includes a contingency for regulatory compliance, there is a risk that new regulations could increase our costs of doing business and prevent us from carrying out our exploration program, or that the budgeted amounts are inadequate.
Because of the inherent dangers involved in mineral exploration, there is a risk that we may incur liability or damages, which could hurt our financial position and possibly result in the failure of our business.
The search for valuable minerals involves numerous hazards. As a result, we may become subject to liability for such hazards, including pollution, cave-ins and other hazards against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. The payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on our financial position.
We may not have access to all of the supplies and materials we need to begin exploration which could cause us to delay or suspend activities.
Competition and unforeseen limited sources of supplies in the industry could result in occasional spot shortages of supplies, such as dynamite, and certain equipment such as bulldozers and excavators that we might need to conduct exploration. We have not attempted to locate or negotiate with any suppliers of products, equipment or materials. We will attempt to locate products, equipment and materials after this offering is complete. If we cannot find the products and equipment we need, we will have to suspend our exploration plans until we do find the products and equipment we need.
Due to external market factors in the mining business, we may not be able to market any minerals that may be found.
The mining industry, in general, is intensely competitive. Even if commercial quantities of minerals are discovered, we can provide no assurance to investors that a ready market will exist for the sale of these minerals. Numerous factors beyond our control may affect the marketability of any substances discovered. These factors include market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of markets and processing equipment, and government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, mineral importing and exporting and environmental protection. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but any combination of these factors may result in our not receiving an adequate return on invested capital.
7
Our operations are subject to strict environmental regulations, which result in added costs of operations and operational delays.
Our operations are subject to environmental regulations, which could result in additional costs and operational delays. All phases of our operations are subject to environmental regulation. Environmental legislation is evolving in some countries and jurisdictions in a manner that may require stricter standards, and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringer environmental assessments of proposed projects, and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors, and employees. There is no assurance that any future changes in environmental regulation will not negatively affect our projects.
We have no insurance for environmental problems.
Insurance against environmental risks, including potential liability for pollution or other hazards as a result of the disposal of waste products occurring from exploration and production, has not been available generally in the mining industry. We have no insurance coverage for most environmental risks. In the event of a problem, the payment of environmental liabilities and costs would reduce the funds available to us for future operations. If we are unable to fund fully the cost of remedying an environmental problem, we might be required to enter into an interim compliance measure pending completion of the required remedy.
Climate change and related regulatory responses may impact our business.
Climate change as a result of emissions of greenhouse gases is a significant topic of discussion and may generate government regulatory responses in the near future. It is impracticable to predict with any certainty the impact of climate change on our business or the regulatory responses to it, although we recognize that they could be significant. However, it is too soon for us to predict with any certainty the ultimate impact, either directionally or quantitatively, of climate change and related regulatory responses.
Because our officers and directors have other outside business activities and will only be devoting approximately five hours per week to our operations, our operations may be sporadic which may result in periodic interruptions or suspensions of exploration.
Because our officers and directors have other outside business activities and will only be devoting five hours per week to our operations, our operations may be sporadic and occur at times which are convenient to our officer and director. As a result, exploration of the property may be periodically interrupted or suspended.
Nevada Law And Our Articles Of Incorporation Protect Our Directors From Certain Types Of Lawsuits, Which Could Make It Difficult For Us To Recover Damages From Them In The Event Of A Lawsuit.
Nevada law provides that our directors will not be liable to our company or to our stockholders for monetary damages for all but certain types of conduct as directors. Our Articles of Incorporation require us to indemnify our directors and officers against all damages incurred in connection with our business to the fullest extent provided or allowed by law. The exculpation provisions may have the effect of preventing stockholders from recovering damages against our directors caused by their negligence, poor judgment or other circumstances. The indemnification provisions may require our company to use our assets to defend our directors and officers against claims, including claims arising out of their negligence, poor judgment, or other circumstances.
8
II. Risks Associated with Our Current Stage of Business
Because We Are Quoted On The OTC Pinksheets Instead Of An Exchange Or National Quotation System, Our Investors May Have A Tougher Time Selling Their Stock Or Experience Negative Volatility On The Market Price Of Our Stock.
Our common stock is traded on the Pinksheets. The Pinksheets is often highly illiquid, in part because it does not have a national quotation system by which potential investors can follow the market price of shares except through information received and generated by a limited number of broker-dealers that make markets in particular stocks. There is a greater chance of volatility for securities that trade on the Pinksheets as compared to a national exchange or quotation system. This volatility may be caused by a variety of factors, including the lack of readily available price quotations, the absence of consistent administrative supervision of bid and ask quotations, lower trading volume, and market conditions. Investors in our common stock may experience high fluctuations in the market price and volume of the trading market for our securities. These fluctuations, when they occur, may have a negative effect on the market price for our securities. Accordingly, our stockholders may not be able to realize a fair price from their shares when they determine to sell them or may have to hold them for a substantial period of time until the market for our common stock improves.
As a public company we are subject to complex legal and accounting requirements that will require us to incur significant expenses and will expose us to risk of non-compliance.
As a public company, we are subject to numerous legal and accounting requirements that do not apply to private companies. The cost of compliance with many of these requirements is material, not only in absolute terms but, more importantly, in relation to the overall scope of the operations of a small company. Our relative inexperience with these requirements may increase the cost of compliance and may also increase the risk that we will fail to comply. Failure to comply with these requirements can have numerous adverse consequences including, but not limited to, our inability to file required periodic reports on a timely basis, loss of market confidence, delisting of our securities and/or governmental or private actions against us. We cannot assure you that we will be able to comply with all of these requirements or that the cost of such compliance will not prove to be a substantial competitive disadvantage vis-à-vis our privately held and larger public competitors.
The application of the “penny stock” rules could adversely affect the market price of our common shares and increase your transaction costs to sell those shares. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rule 3a51-1 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, rule 15g-9 require:
●
|
that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and
|
●
|
the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased
|
In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
●
|
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
|
●
|
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
|
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
●
|
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
|
●
|
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
|
●
|
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
|
9
FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.
In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.
Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) could have a material adverse effect on our business & operating results.
It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the additional internal controls, processes and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal auditing and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate additional internal controls, processes and reporting procedures.
If we fail to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding internal control over financial reporting or to remedy any material weaknesses in our internal controls that we may identify, such failure could result in material misstatements in our financial statements, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a negative effect on the trading price of our common shares.
Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and current SEC regulations, we are required to prepare assessments regarding internal controls over financial reporting. In connection with our on-going assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, we may discover “material weaknesses” in our internal controls as defined in standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB. A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The PCAOB defines “significant deficiency” as a deficiency that results in more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected.
In the event that a material weakness is identified, we will employ qualified personnel and adopt and implement policies and procedures to address any material weaknesses that we identify. However, the process of designing and implementing effective internal controls is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to expend significant resources to maintain a system of internal controls that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations as a public company. We cannot assure you that the measures we will take will remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or that we will implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial process and reporting in the future.

Any failure to complete our assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, to remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or to implement new controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial statements. Any such failure could also adversely affect the results of the periodic management evaluations of our internal controls. Inadequate internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our common shares.
In October of 2011, on the eve of the completion of the audit and the current filing of our Annual report on Form 10-K, new (current) management learned that the prior CEO/CFO failed to have entity level controls, lacked segregation of duties, among many other internal control deficiencies. The prior CEO/CFO concealed these matters from the professional advisors until those advisors pressured Mr. Janney for additional documentation in which Mr. Janney admitted and New Management has learned information that is reported herein in Item 3, Item 9, and the Notes 3 and 8 of the financial statements. As discussed above, the possibility that the prior management did not properly implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial process and reporting during Mr. Janney’s tenure may have resulted in the alleged actions taken by Mr. Janney and may have had an adverse effect of the Company’s business and on the market for the Company’s shares. Upon discovering a possible material weakness resulted in the current management taking remedial action to rectify the possible deficiency (see Item 9 herein).
The market price for our common shares is particularly volatile given our status as a relatively unknown company with a small and thinly traded public float, limited operating history and lack of profits which could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. The price at which you purchase our common shares may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market. You may be unable to sell your common shares at or above your purchase price, which may result in substantial losses to you.
The market for our common shares is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. The volatility in our share price is attributable to a number of factors. First, as noted above, our common shares are sporadically and thinly traded. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our shareholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our common shares are sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer which could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price. Secondly, we are a speculative or “risky” investment due to our limited operating history and lack of profits to date, and uncertainty of future market acceptance for our potential products. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a seasoned issuer. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common shares, regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our common shares will be at any time, including as to whether our common shares will sustain their current market prices, or as to what effect that the sale of shares or the availability of common shares for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price.
Shareholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.
11
Volatility in our common share price may subject us to securities litigation, thereby diverting our resources that may have a material effect on our profitability and results of operations.
As discussed in the preceding risk factors, the market for our common shares is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may in the future be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and liabilities and could divert management’s attention and resources.
Compliance with changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure will result in additional expenses and pose challenges for our management team.
Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the rules and regulations promulgated there under, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC regulations, have created uncertainty for public companies and significantly increased the costs and risks associated with accessing the U.S. public markets. Our management team will need to devote significant time and financial resources to comply with both existing and evolving standards for public companies, which will lead to increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating activities to compliance activities.
SHOULD ONE OR MORE OF THE FOREGOING RISKS OR UNCERTAINTIES MATERIALIZE, OR SHOULD THE UNDERLYING ASSUMPTIONS PROVE INCORRECT, ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED, BELIEVED, ESTIMATED, EXPECTED, INTENDED OR PLANNED.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our company’s or our company’s subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect except the following matters.
In October 2011, on the eve of the completion of the audit and the current filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K new management learned that the prior CEO/CFO failed to have entity level controls, lacked segregation of duties, among many other internal control deficiencies. The Company believes that the prior CEO/CFO concealed these matters from the professional advisors until those advisors requested David Janney for additional documentation in which Mr. Janney acknowledged the following to new management and independent legal counsel:
1.
|
The Company was informed that the prior CEO/CFO, created a series of promissory notes, such form of notes being provided by a lawyer named John Thomas, Esq. These promissory notes and documentation provided a signed assignment of two promissory notes with Venture Capital, Inc. a group from Switzerland. Over time, including discussions with the prior CEO/CFO, new management was able to directly contact a representative of Venture Capital who claims that its signatures on the notes and the later conversions to equity were forged. The alleged improper assignment orchestrated the issuance of converted allegedly improperly transferred debt for the following numbers of shares:
|
a)
|
December 9, 2010: Tucker Financial Services, Inc. received 12,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.

January 24, 2011; Tucker Financial Services, Inc. received 12,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.

February 16, 2011: Stock Loan Solutions received 12,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.

February 22, 2011: Nicolas Sprung of Tucker Financial Services, Inc. received 12,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
e)
|
April 18, 2011: Euroline Clearing Corporation received 7,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
f)
|
April 18, 2011: Enavest International S.A., received 7,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.

April 18, 2011: Vanilla Sky, S.A. received 7,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
h)
|
June 28, 2011: Scott Geisler received 17,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although Mr. Geisler had no knowledge of the documentation provided by John Thomas was false and this was transacted through a Broker Scottsdale Capital) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
13
All legal opinions related to these conversions, documentations, and issuances of shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 were prepared by John Thomas, Esq.
2.
|
The prior CEO/CFO personally sent $39,000 to a cable company in the Dominican Republic in which current management has been informed that David Janney owns/controls this company. The prior CEO/CFO has, to date, refused to provide new management and our auditors’ invoices or evidence of the uses of these funds.
|
3.
|
John Thomas signed various documents as a Board member of the Company, a position which he has never lawfully held, including the transaction with Asher Enterprises, Inc., pursuant to which Asher received 53,000,000 shares of Bonanza common stock which represented about thirty-two (32%) percent of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company. Current management has negotiated the cash payment of this note and has cancelled the 53,000,000 common shares held in escrow.
|
4.
|
The prior CEO/CFO entered another problematic agreement with Amazon Holding LLC to pay a finder’s fee for raising $250,000 in the acquisition of mining property. These finder’s fees were 100% of the entire transaction with a 24% interest rate and current management is of the belief that David Janney was to receive 50% of those payments. Current management still does not have an executed agreement with Amazon Holdings, LLC.
|
Presently, legal counsel has demanded the return of all of David Janney common stock of 20,000,000 shares related to the material deficiencies and potential breach of fiduciary duty while holding the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company from November 2010 through his resignation. The Company has sought the advice of legal counsel to determine the appropriate course of action. Current management continues an internal investigation to the matters listed above.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected our financial position and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as well as information relating to the plans of our current management. This report includes forward-looking statements. Generally, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “continue,” and similar expressions or the negative thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including the matters set forth in this report or other reports or documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those projected. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto and other financial information contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
Our exploration target is to find exploitable minerals on our properties. Our success depends on achieving that target. There is the likelihood of our mineral claims containing little or no economic mineralization or reserves of gold and other minerals. There is the possibility that our claims do not contain any reserves and funds that we spend on exploration will be lost. Even if we complete our current exploration program and are successful in identifying a mineral deposit we will be required to expend substantial funds to bring our claim to production. We are unable to assure you we will be able to raise the additional funds necessary to implement any future exploration or extraction program even if mineralization is found.
Going Concern
The report of our independent registered public accounting firm contains explanatory language that substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated revenues and no revenues are anticipated until we begin removing and selling minerals. There is no assurance we will ever reach that point.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Significant accounting policies are as follows:
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. These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Exploration Stage Enterprise
The Company's financial statements are prepared pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 26 “Accounting for Development Stage Enterprises,” as it devotes substantially all of its efforts to acquiring and exploring mining interests that will eventually provide sufficient net profits to sustain the Company’s existence. Until such interests are engaged in major commercial production, the Company will continue to prepare its financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with entities in the development stage. Mining companies subject to ASC Topic 26 are required to label their financial statements as an “Exploratory Stage Company,” pursuant to guidance provided by SEC Guide 7 for Mining Companies.
19
Mineral Properties
Significant payments related to the acquisition of mineral properties, mineral rights, and mineral leases are capitalized. If a commercially mineable ore body is discovered, such costs are amortized when production begins using the units-of-production method based on proven and probable reserves. If no commercially mineable ore body is discovered, or such rights are otherwise determined to have no value, such costs are expensed in the period in which it is determined the property has no future economic value.
Property Evaluations
Management of the Company will periodically review the net carrying value of its properties on a property-by-property basis. These reviews will consider the net realizable value of each property to determine whether a permanent impairment in value has occurred and the need for any asset write-down. An impairment loss will be recognized when the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest) expected to result from the use of an asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset. Measurement of an impairment loss will be based on the estimated fair value of the asset if the asset is expected to be held and used.
Although management will make its best estimate of the factors that affect net realizable value based on current conditions, it is reasonably possible that changes could occur in the near term which could adversely affect management's estimate of net cash flows expected to be generated from its assets, and necessitate asset impairment write-downs.
Mineral property rights
All direct costs related to the acquisition of mineral property rights are capitalized. Exploration costs are charged to operations in the period incurred until such time as it has been determined that a property has economically recoverable reserves, at which time subsequent exploration costs and the costs incurred to develop a property are capitalized. The Company reviews the carrying values of its mineral property rights whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may exceed their estimated net recoverable amounts. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying value of those assets is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. As of June 30, 2011, management has determined that there was impairment loss required of $615,700 and $99,000 for the year ended June 30, 2010.
At such time as commercial production may commence, depletion of each mining property will be provided on a unit-of-production basis using estimated proven and probable recoverable reserves as the depletion base. In cases where there are no proven or probable reserves, depletion will be provided on the straight-line basis over the expected economic life of the mine.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC Topic 365, long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment, and purchased intangibles, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. As of June 30, 2011, management has determined that there was impairment loss required of $647,822.
20
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are provided based on the provisions of ASC Topic 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes", to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 740; "Accounting For Uncertainty In Income Taxes-An Interpretation Of ASC Topic 740 ("Topic 740"). Topic 740 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating the Company's tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments. At June 30, 2011, the Company did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax positions.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company applies Topic 718 “Share-Based Payments” (“Topic 718”) to share-based compensation, which requires the measurement of the cost of services received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost is recognized when the event occurs. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of options granted. There are 6,000,000 options and no warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2011.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors. Certain officers and directors of the Company have provided personal guarantees to our various lenders as required for the extension of credit to the Company.
Accounting policies subject to estimation and judgment
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. When preparing our financial statements, we make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts on our balance sheets and income statements, and our related disclosure about contingent assets and liabilities. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue, allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves for income taxes, and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, which we believe to be reasonable in order to form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily ascertained from other sources. Actual results may deviate from these estimates if alternative assumptions or condition are used.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND OPERATIONS
We are a junior mining and exploration company identifying and acquiring properties integrated with placer ore and hard rock mineralization in geo-politically stable regions. Although Bonanza has interest in Red Mountain, Colorado and the Black Rock Basin, Arizona projects, management continues to focus all efforts on the flagship Tarantula Project, Congress, Arizona.
Our managements’ strategy is to process feasible placer ore, while proving out hard rock structures of the flagship Tarantula Project, Congress, Arizona. Most of our work effort has focused exclusively on the Tarantula Project. The project area is comprised of 38 lode claims covering 600 acres, with several low lying basins of what is believed to be ancient river beds. Furthermore, there are vestiges and hallmarks of major geological upheaval resulting in unique anomalies, such as extensive mineralized quartz veins. Initially, local non-qualified assay results showed high grades of gold, as well as lower grades of silver, platinum, and rare earth metals, convincing management the existence of possible bonanza type resources. Management has since engaged Auric Resources International a company controlled by one of our Board of Directors to complete a Preliminary Geological Survey of the Tarantula Project and certain outlying regions.
Bonanza Goldfields’ flagship Tarantula Project consists of 38 lode claims covering 600 acres of patented, private property claims and BLM claims in the Date Creek Mountains, Arizona consisting of both alluvial and mineralized quartz deposits. A Preliminary Geological Survey of the claims and the immediate region is now completed of the Tarantula Project , prepared by Auric Resources International, Inc. of Wickenburg, Arizona. Shareholders can access the report at Bonanza Goldfields' official website: www.bonanzagoldfields.com.
Highlights from the report include:
●
|
The large land package with widespread areas of anomalous gold values; proximity to the Congress Mine; large iron oxide rich quartz veins which exhibit mineralogic and structural similarities to the Congress, Niagara, Queen of the Hills, Golden Wave and other mineralized, economic vein systems in the area; and the presence of placer gold in widespread gravels indicates that the Tarantula Property may host a large, potentially economic gold deposit and undoubtedly represents an excellent exploration target with potential for both placer and lode gold production from auriferous placers and veins.
|
●
|
Although some preliminary testing has been done on portions of the property, the majority of the land package has virgin placer gravels and large quartz veins that have never been explored or tested.
|
●
|
The geologic setting of the property is favorable for the concentration of placer gold in the local gravels that occur in drainage channels and elevated benches and for lode gold that occurs within the early Proterozoic granitic rocks as auriferous quartz fissure veins with locally abundant sulfides and iron oxides.
|
●
|
Auriferous quartz and quartz-sulfide veins occur on the Tarantula Property and many exhibit the same characteristics as those in the Congress Mine and other mines in the area. These veins ranged up to several feet in width and have strike lengths ranging from hundreds to thousands of feet.
|
22
Prior to commencing the survey, extensive samplings were analyzed locally at multiple depths demonstrating the potential for high grade gold findings throughout the property. Modern access for heavy equipment is already in place via Bonanza’s privately constructed roads, and rail is localized. The claims are directly adjacent to the world famous historic Congress Mine, Arizona. The Congress Mine operated between 1887 and 1959 producing, according to managements understanding, about 400,000 ounces of lode gold. Unique features appear ubiquitous throughout the immediate area, including greenstone dike extensions, placer gravel deposits, and vestiges of numerous pre-historic waterfalls. Additionally, lode gold possibilities exist due to the extensions of schist and mineralized quartz veins in the immediate area of the Congress Mine. Bonanza management believes the alluvial deposits originate from two ancient rivers that flowed in opposing directions during separate geological periods.
We expanded of their flagship Tarantula Project with the acquisition of the Piedmont Mine, gold and silver mine in operation until 1940. The Piedmont Mine has been deemed by the Bonanza geological team a highly prospective addition to the Tarantula Project. The acquisition expands the Tarantula Project to 38 lode mining claims covering over 600 acres of contiguous property directly adjacent to the historic Congress Mine which produced over 400,000 ounces of lode gold between 1887 and 1959.
While conducting a survey of the Tarantula Project, explorations of the outlying region lead to the acquisition of additional claims. With the expansion of the land package, management believes an economically feasible resource estimate can be derived and “proved out.” Furthermore, with the added resource, small to medium scale placer production operations can commence. We have further engaged Auric Resources International to source and build its production operation on an economically viable basis. The level of viability is indexed at 1 gram/ton, and management believes these levels can be attained if not exceeded. With placer production commencing of placer material, we intend to move directly into core drilling of the property. The adjacent historic Congress Mine was a hard rock mining operation, which resulted in the production of an estimated 440,000 ounces of gold until it ceased operations in the 1930’s. Congress’ hard rock structures appear to move directly onto Bonanza’s properties, and management believes, but can provide no assurances, that RC (reverse circulation) drilling samples will ultimately prove this out.
The Black Rock Basin (BRB) Project claim group is currently comprised of 320 acres on BLM (“Bureau of Land Management”) ground in the southern part of the Vulture Mining District, Maricopa County, Arizona in the northeastern Belmont Mountains. The property is located along a twelve mile northwest mineralized trend where several gold and copper mines previously operated. Bulk sampling during Bonanza's reconnaissance reveals promising higher level gold values over six large target zones. Approximately 400 soil samples were taken on a surveyed grid. These samples were sent to Chemex Labs in Reno, Nevada and analyzed for 32 elements including gold, silver, copper, lead & zinc. The results obtained from this work indicate a minimum of six gold anomalies within the claim boundaries. Over ten bulk samples returned gold values in excess of 3400 ppb (0.10+ oz/ton), including 2% copper, 20% lead, 15% zinc and up to 7 ounces of silver per ton. Property within the BRB Project experienced minor prospecting during the early 1900's through numerous small prospect pits, shallow shafts, adits, and small tunnels. There is no formal record of production on the BRB property. The property is located approximately 80 miles west of Phoenix and 25 miles southwest of Wickenburg, Arizona, and is accessible year round. The BRB Project is situated within the lower hills and flats of the northern Belmont Mountain Range with elevations from 1900 feet to 2500 feet.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2011, Compared to Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2010
We are an exploration stage company acquiring mineral properties or claims located in the State of Arizona, USA. The recoverability of amounts from the properties or claims will be dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, confirmation of our interest in the underlying properties and/or claims, our ability to obtain necessary financing to satisfy the expenditure requirements under the property and/or claim agreements and to complete the development of the properties and/or claims, and upon future profitable production or proceeds for the sale thereof.
For the year ended June 30, 2011, we generated no revenue. Our future revenue plan is uncertain and is dependent on our ability to effectively mine our products, generate sales, and obtain contract mining opportunities. There are no assurances of the ability of our Company to begin to mine our claim. The cost of mining is cost intensive so it is critical for us to raise appropriate capital to implement our business plan. We incurred losses of $2,409,959 for the year ended June 30, 2011 and our losses since our inception through amount to $5,515,499.
Our operating expenses for exploration activities for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $106,782 $76,256. The costs associated with exploration activities included trenching, testing, hauling, and labor costs associated with the exploration of our gold mines claims.
We acquired several mining claims through the course of our exploration stage and through the course of this process impaired claims as noted below and described in Footnote #3 in the financial statements.
The following is a detail of mining claim activity during the year ended June 30, 2011:

Our general and administrative expenses for the years ended June 30, 2011 were $1,411,239 as compared to $62,943 for June 30, 2010. The increase is primarily attributable to stock that was issued for conversion of debt that we learned the documents provided and other documents concealed by our prior CEO/CFO were forgeries which represented 86,000,000 common shares issued. We expensed $985,100 as non-cash compensation are as follows:
a)
|
December 9, 2010: Tucker Financial Services, Inc. received 12,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
b)

|
f)
|
April 18, 2011: Enavest International S.A., received 7,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
g)
|
April 18, 2011: Vanilla Sky, S.A. received 7,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
h)
|
June 28, 2011: Scott Geisler received 17,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although Mr. Geisler had no knowledge of the documentation provided by John Thomas was false and this was transacted through a Broker Scottsdale Capital ) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
Our interest expense for the year ended June 30, 2011 were $94,832 as compared to $479,621 for June 30, 2010. The decrease is primarily attributable to stock that was issued for conversion of debt in June 2010 of $496,760 less a beneficial conversion feature of $33,172 with a total of $463,588 which was expensed to interest expense.
Our loss on accounts payables and loss on conversion of debt for the years ended June 30, 2011 were $149,284 as compared to $0 for June 30, 2010.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash used in operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2011 was $253,255 as compared to $649,247 for the year ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in cash flows used in operations was primarily attributable to favorable changes in operating assets and liabilities, primarily related to increases in accounts payable, in 2011 as compared to the 2010 period.
Our cash used in investing activities for the year ended June 30, 2011 was $50,000 as compared to $0 for 2010. The Company paid $50,000 during the year as part of a joint venture agreement. This joint venture agreement was later terminated.
Our cash provided by financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2011 was $326,300 as compared to $649,212 for 2010.
To date, we have has succeeded in securing capital as needed, but there is no guarantee this will continue.
We believe we will have to rely on public and private equity and debt financings to fund our liquidity requirements over the intermediate term. We may be unable to obtain any additional financings on terms favorable to us, or obtain additional funding at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, and if cash and cash equivalents together with any income generated from operations fall short of our liquidity requirements, we may be unable to sustain operations. Continued negative cash flows create substantial doubt regarding our ability to fully implement our business plan and could render us unable to expand our operations or take advantage of acquisition opportunities, any of which may have a material adverse effect on our business. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity securities, our stockholders may experience dilution of their ownership interest, and the newly issued securities may have rights superior to those of our common stock. If we raise additional funds by issuing debt, we may be subject to limitations on our operations, including limitations on the payments of dividends
25
Other Considerations
There are numerous factors that affect the business and the results of its operations. Sources of these factors include general economic and business conditions, federal and state regulation of business and mining activities, changes to the tax code during or after the current congressional session, and our ability to continue to improve our infrastructure including personnel and systems to keep pace with the Company’s anticipated rapid growth.
Recent Developments
On June 14, 2011, our Board of Directors approved the creation of 10 million shares of Series A Preferred Stock. On June 14, 2011, the Preferred Stock contains certain rights, preferences, privileges, restrictions and other characteristics as further detailed in the Certificate of Designation to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. Significantly, the Preferred Stock has 100 votes per share, whereas, each share of Common Stock has 1 vote. Preferred Stock holders may vote with holders of the Company’s Common Stock on all matters which common stockholders may vote. All the preferred shares issued to our prior CEO/CFO were returned when he resigned from all positions with the Company.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of Bonanza Goldfields Corporation
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Phoenix, Arizona
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Bonanza Goldfields Corporation (an exploration stage company) as of June 30, 2011, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended and for the period from March 6, 2008 (date of inception) to June 30, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The financial statements for the period from March 6, 2008 (date of inception) through June 30, 2010 were audited by other auditors whose reports expressed unqualified opinions on those statements. The financial statements for the period from March 6, 2008 (date of inception) through June 30, 2010 include total revenues and net loss of $0 and $3,105,539, respectively. Our opinion on the statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the period from March 6, 2008 (date of inception) through June 30, 2010, insofar as it relates to amounts for prior periods through June 30, 2010, is based solely on the reports of other auditors.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Bonanza Goldfields Corporation as of June 30, 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended and for the period from March 6, 2008, (date of inception) to June 30, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses and has an accumulated deficit at June 30, 2011. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BONANZA GOLDFIELDS CORPORATION
(An Exploration Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN
Bonanza Goldfields Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 6, 2008. On August 3, 2009, the Company elected to change its year end to June 30th from June 18th. The Company is in the process of acquiring mineral properties or claims located in the State of Arizona, USA. The recoverability of amounts from the properties or claims will be dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, confirmation of the Company's interest in the underlying properties and/or claims, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to satisfy the expenditure requirements under the property and/or claim agreements and to complete the development of the properties and/or claims, and upon future profitable production or proceeds for the sale thereof. The Company's corporate office is located in Phoenix, Arizona. Shareholders can access the report at Bonanza Goldfields’ official website: www.bonanzagoldfields.com. (such website not to be incorporated by reference to this report).
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has a working deficit and has not generated revenues since inception. During the year ended in June 30, 2011, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,409,959 and as of June 30, 2011 has an accumulated deficit of $5,515,499. Further, the Company has inadequate working capital to maintain or develop its operations, and is dependent upon funds from private investors and the support of certain stockholders. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. In this regard, Management is planning to raise any necessary additional funds through loans or additional sales of its common stock. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital.
The Company's ability to meet its obligations and continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing, achievement of profitable operations and/or the discovery, exploration, development and sale of mining reserves. The Company cannot reasonably be expected to earn revenue in the exploration stage of operations. Although the Company plans to pursue additional financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure financing when needed or to obtain such financing on terms satisfactory to the Company, if at all.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Significant accounting policies are as follows:
Basis of Presentation
The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net sales and expenses recognized during the periods presented. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates often relate to improved information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of financial statements; accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.
F-7
Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Exploration Stage Enterprise
The Company's financial statements are prepared pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 26 “Accounting for Development Stage Enterprises,” as it devotes substantially all of its efforts to acquiring and exploring mining interests that will eventually provide sufficient net profits to sustain the Company’s existence. Until such interests are engaged in major commercial production, the Company will continue to prepare its financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with entities in the development stage. Mining companies subject to ASC Topic 26 are required to label their financial statements as an “Exploratory Stage Company,” pursuant to guidance provided by SEC Guide 7 for Mining Companies.
Mineral Properties
Significant payments related to the acquisition of mineral properties, mineral rights, and mineral leases are capitalized. If a commercially mineable ore body is discovered, such costs are amortized when production begins using the units-of-production method based on proven and probable reserves. If no commercially mineable ore body is discovered, or such rights are otherwise determined to have no value, such costs are expensed in the period in which it is determined the property has no future economic value.
Property Evaluations
Management of the Company will periodically review the net carrying value of its properties on a property-by-property basis. These reviews will consider the net realizable value of each property to determine whether a permanent impairment in value has occurred and the need for any asset write-down. An impairment loss will be recognized when the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest) expected to result from the use of an asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset. Measurement of an impairment loss will be based on the estimated fair value of the asset if the asset is expected to be held and used.
Although management will make its best estimate of the factors that affect net realizable value based on current conditions, it is reasonably possible that changes could occur in the near term which could adversely affect management's estimate of net cash flows expected to be generated from its assets, and necessitate asset impairment write-downs.
Mineral property rights
All direct costs related to the acquisition of mineral property rights are capitalized. Exploration costs are charged to operations in the period incurred until such time as it has been determined that a property has economically recoverable reserves, at which time subsequent exploration costs and the costs incurred to develop a property are capitalized. The Company reviews the carrying values of its mineral property rights whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may exceed their estimated net recoverable amounts. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying value of those assets is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. As of June 30, 2011, management has determined that there was impairment loss required of $615,700 and $99,000 for the year ended June 30, 2010.
F-8
At such time as commercial production may commence, depletion of each mining property will be provided on a unit-of-production basis using estimated proven and probable recoverable reserves as the depletion base. In cases where there are no proven or probable reserves, depletion will be provided on the straight-line basis over the expected economic life of the mine.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC Topic 365, long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment, and purchased intangibles, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. As of June 30, 2011, management has determined that there was impairment loss required of $647,822.
Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company had no operating properties at June 30, 2011, but the Company’s mineral properties will be subject to standards for mine reclamation that are established by various governmental agencies. For these non-operating properties, the Company accrues costs associated with environmental remediation obligations when it is probable that such costs will be incurred and they are reasonably estimable. Costs of future expenditures for environmental remediation are not discounted to their present value. Such costs are based on management's current estimate of amounts that are expected to be incurred when the remediation work is performed within current laws and regulations.
It is reasonably possible that due to uncertainties associated with defining the nature and extent of possible environmental contamination, application of laws and regulations by regulatory authorities, and changes in remediation technology, the ultimate cost of remediation and reclamation could change in the future. The Company continually reviews its accrued liabilities for such remediation and reclamation costs as evidence becomes available indicating that its remediation and reclamation liability has changed.
The Company recognizes the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred, if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the associated long-lived assets and depreciated over the lives of the assets on a units-of-production basis. Reclamation costs are accreted over the life of the related assets and are adjusted for changes resulting from the passage of time and changes to either the timing or amount of the original present value estimate on the underlying obligation. There has been no Asset Retirement Obligations as of June 30, 2011 as there are presently no underlying obligations.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using principally the straight-line method. When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited for the difference between net book value and proceeds realized thereon. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized.
F-9
The range of estimated useful lives used to calculated depreciation for principal items of property and equipment are as follow:
Asset Category
|

Amortization Period
|
|
Furniture and Fixture
|
3 Years
|
|
Office equipment
|
3 Years
|
|
Leasehold improvements
|
5 Years
|
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are provided based on the provisions of ASC Topic 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes", to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The Company follows a two-step approach to ultimately recognize and measure uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating the Company's tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments. At June 30, 2011, the Company did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax positions.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its operating cash balances in banks in Phoenix, Arizona. The Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insures accounts at each institution up to $250,000.
Share-Based Compensation
The measurement of the cost of services received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument is based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost is recognized when the event occurs. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of options granted.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of shares was calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding. Diluted net loss per share for the Company is the same as basic net loss per share, as during period where a net loss is reported the inclusion of common stock equivalents would be antidilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced sale or liquidation.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, income tax payable and related party payable approximate fair value due to their most maturities.
F-10
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation for comparative purposes.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

NOTE 6 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
Effective June 18, 2008, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the 2008 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the "2008 Plan"). The Plan reserves 1,000,000 shares of common stock for grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, warrants and restricted stock awards to employees, non-employee directors and consultants performing services for the Company. Options and warrants granted under the Plan have an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of the underlying common stock at the date of grant and become exercisable based on a vesting schedule determined at the date of grant. The options expire 2 years from the date of grant whereas warrants generally expire 5 years from the date of grant. Restricted stock awards granted under the Plan are subject to a vesting period determined at the date of grant.
On June 6, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company amended the 2008 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2008 Plan”). The amendment allowed for the grant amount to be changed from 1,000,000 common shares to 25,000,000 common shares.
The cost of all employee stock options, as well as other equity-based compensation arrangements, is reflected in the financial statements over the vesting period based on the estimated fair value of the awards. The Company adopted ASC Topic 718 as of September 16, 2008. Prior to the adoption date, there were no stock options or other equity-based compensation awards outstanding.

Options
The Company values all warrants using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Critical assumptions for the Black-Scholes option-pricing model include the market value of the stock price at the time of issuance, the risk-free interest rate corresponding to the term of the warrant, the volatility of the Company’s stock price, dividend yield on the common stock, as well as the exercise price and term of the warrant. The warrants are not subject to any form of vesting schedule and, therefore, are exercisable by the holders anytime at their discretion during the life of the warrant. No discounts were applied to the valuation determined by the Black Scholes option-pricing model.
The Company has 6,000,000 options outstanding as of June 30, 2011. The Company amended its Stock Option Plan to grant 25,000,000 common shares on June 6, 2011. Outstanding options include 6,000,000 options warrants to purchase common stock of the Company at a $0.01 exercise price which are fully vested and have a four year expected life and expire June 6, 2015 and were valued at $42,599 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES
The Company adopted ASC Topic 740 which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes are insignificant.
For income tax reporting purposes, the Company’s aggregate unused net operating losses approximate $5,323,861 which expire in various years through 2028, subject to limitations of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit, because in the opinion of management based upon the earning history of the Company; it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized.
Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the benefits from net operating losses carried forward may be impaired or limited on certain circumstances. Events which may cause limitations in the amount of net operating losses that the Company may utilize in any one year include, but are not limited to, a cumulative ownership change of more than 50% over a three-year period. The impact of any limitations that may be imposed for future issuances of equity securities, including issuances with respect to acquisitions have not been determined.

On June 17, 2011, Bonanza Goldfields Corporation signed a joint venture agreement with Osiris Gold, Inc., a Colorado Corporation, and Sial Exploration, Inc., a Colorado Corporation. The Partners are actively involved with the exploration, development, and mining of mineral deposits in the regional southwest. The Agreement involves a 1,351 acre mining claim in the historic Red Mountain Mining District of Colorado’s San Juan Mountains. The Company and its Partners agreed to form Red Mountain LLC to operate and manage the joint venture. The Company will receive an initial 10% ownership interest in the Joint Venture Company with the potential to increase that share to a maximum of 49%. The company is presently in default on this agreement and no additional payments that were scheduled have been paid.
On April 12, 2011 the Company entered into an Excavator Lease agreement with David Costaglio which included a lease terms of issuance of 3,277,778 common stock and 23 ounces of gold to be issued 12 ounces in 3 months, and 13 ounces in 6 months. The company has issued the common shares but has defaulted on the remaining terms of the agreement. New management has re-negotiating the terms of this agreement and paid this outstanding agreement in full in September 2011.
On February 7, 2011 the Company entered into a promissory note agreement with Freedom Boat which included a promissory note of $250,000 at 12% interest rate. The agreement includes a Royalty payment which includes 5% in royalty of its gross profits from Gold Extraction form Tarantula Placer Mine and 5% royalty payment from Hull Placer Mine. The Company intends to re-negotiate the terms which would not include any royalty payments.
During the year ended June 30, 2011, prior management converted 80% of two notes from Venture Capital International for $12,000 dated March 30, 2009 and $17,000 dated May 7, 2009. 86,000,000 shares of common stock were issued to convert $23,200 in debt and $2,323 in accrued interest. The fair value of those shares was $985,100. The difference of $959,577 was expensed to Loss on Conversion of Debt. The prior CEO/CFO requested that Venture Capital International assign those notes to Gustavo Cifuentes Palma. The Company was provided a signed debt purchase agreement executed by both Venture Capital International and Gustavo Cifuentes Palma dated November 2010. Gustavo Cifuentues Palma then assigned 10% of these notes each to Tucker Financial Services, Inc., Vanilly Sky, S.A., Stock Loan Solutions, Euroline Clearing Corporation, Enavest Internacional S.A., and Nicolas Sprung In October of 2011, the Company learned that the signatures on the original debt purchase agreement from Venture Capital International by Gustavo Cifuentes Palma were forgeries. The agreement was never executed by Venture Capital International and Venture Capital International was never paid for the debt purchase. Since the assignments have been deem forgeries the company has recorded the stock issued as compensation and recorded a compensation expense of $985,100. The Company is uncertain of the affiliation between the prior CEO/CFO and Gustavo Cifuentes Palma and if he had any knowledge of the forgeries.
On September 23, 2011 the Company entered into a subscription agreement to issue 750,000 common shares of stock to satisfy a $2,000 negotiated balance for supplies purchased. As of this filing the Company has issued all 750,000 common shares of this agreement. The Company agreed to satisfy these supplies to satisfy a dispute between the supplier and the Company.
In October of 2011, on the eve of the completion of the audit and the current filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K new management learned that the prior CEO/CFO failed to have entity level controls, lacked segregation of duties, among many other internal control deficiencies. The Company believes that the prior CEO/CFO concealed these matters from the professional advisors until those advisors requested David Janney for additional documentation in which Mr. Janney acknowledged the following to New Management and independent legal counsel:

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
We have no changes or disagreements with our auditors.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules, regulations and related forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of June 30, 2011, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
Our management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that;
Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; and
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and
That our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company's management and directors; and
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
As of June 30, 2011, our management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. In making this assessment, management followed an approach based on the framework in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on this assessment, management has determined that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2011.
28
In October of 2011, on the eve of the completion of the audit and the current filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K new management learned that the prior CEO/CFO failed to have entity level controls, lacked segregation of duties, among many other internal control deficiencies. The Company believes that the prior CEO/CFO concealed these matters from the professional advisors until those advisors requested David Janney for additional documentation in which Mr. Janney acknowledged the following to New Management and independent legal counsel:
1.
|
The Company was informed that the Prior CEO/CFO, created a series of promissory notes, such form of notes being provided by a lawyer named John Thomas, Esq. These promissory notes and documentation provided a signed assignment of two promissory notes with Venture Capital, Inc. a group from Switzerland. Over time, including discussions with the prior CEO/CFO, new management was able to directly contact a representative of Venture Capital who claims that its signatures on the notes and the later conversions to equity were forged. The alleged improper assignment orchestrated the issuance of converted allegedly improperly transferred debt for the following numbers of shares:
|
a)
|
December 9, 2010: Tucker Financial Services, Inc. received 12,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
b)
|
January 24, 2011; Tucker Financial Services, Inc. received 12,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
c)
|
February 16, 2011: Stock Loan Solutions received 12,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
d)
|
February 22, 2011: Nicolas Sprung of Tucker Financial Services Inc. received 12,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
e)
|
April 18, 2011: Euroline Clearing Corporation received 7,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
f)
|
April 18, 2011: Enavest International S.A., received 7,000.,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
g)
|
April 18, 2011: Vanilla Sky, S.A. received 7,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although new management believes that such exemption was not available) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
h)
|
June 28, 2011: Scott Geisler received 17,000,000 common shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (although Mr. Geisler had no knowledge of the documentation provided by John Thomas was false and this was transacted through a Broker Scottsdale Capital ) for the conversion of $2,900.
|
29
All legal opinions related to these conversions, documentations, and issuances of shares alleged to be exempt from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 were prepared by John Thomas, Esq.
2.
|
The prior CEO/CFO personally sent thirty-nine thousand ($39,000) dollars to a cable company in the Dominican Republic in which current management has been informed that David Janney owns/controls this company. The Prior CEO/CFO has, to date, refused to provide new management and our auditors’ invoices or evidence of the uses of these funds.
|
3.
|
John Thomas signed various documents as a Board member of the Company, a position which he has never lawfully held, including the transaction with Asher Enterprises, Inc., pursuant to which Asher received fifty-three million (53,000,000) shares of Bonanza common stock which represented about thirty-two (32%) percent of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company. Current management has negotiated the cash payment of this note and has cancelled the 53,000,000 common shares held in escrow.
|
4.
|
The prior CEO/CFO entered another series of problematic agreement with Amazon Holding LLC to pay a finder’s fee for raising $250,000 in the acquisition of mining property. These finder’s fees were 100% of the entire transaction with a 24% interest rate and current management is of the belief that David Janney was to receive 50% of those payments. Current management still does not have an executed agreement with Amazon Holdings, LLC.
|
Presently, legal counsel has demanded the return of all of David Janney common stock of 20,000,000 shares related to the material deficiencies and potential breach of fiduciary duty while holding the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company from November 2010 through his resignation. The Company has sought the advice of legal counsel to determine the appropriate course of action. Current management continues an internal investigation to the matters listed above.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, there were changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Current management has hired independent counsel to investigate these deficiencies, among many other things. The Company has removed the prior CEO/CFO from all positions in the Company and he has no further affiliation with the company. The Company is still investigating whether the parties that participate in the forged debt conversions are victims or co-conspirators.
New management has implemented many new controls and procedures as follows:
Currently, as a small exploratory stage company, we maintain our internal controls through a segregation of duties between our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. For example, all income suppliers’ invoices are delivered direct to the principal financial officer for recording in the books, checking and process. The principle financial officer must submit all payments request to the principle officer for approval, allocation of cash and presentation of a check for mailing to the payee. The principle financial officer conduct regular reconciliation for the bank account to make sure that all receipts and disbursements have been indentified, supported by appropriate documentation and payment approval, and the transaction are matched to posting in the books of account. As a small exploratory stage company, we have very limited financial activity during the year. Thus, the current check and balance of the financial activity by our principle executive officer and principle financial officer provide sufficient control to ensure fairness, accuracy and properly disclose. Any documents as it relate to the Company’s assessment is very limited as there only a limited number of business truncations. No testing was performed on limited transaction within the Company by our principle executive officer and principal financial officer since 100% of the transactions were actually performed cy our principle execute officer and principle financial officer. Our principle executive officer and principle financial officer concluded that adequate procedures were in place to approve and monitor all disbursement distributed by the Company and confirm all funds received by the Company. Our principle execute officer and principal financial officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting, as such term is defined under the rules promulgate under Securities Exchange act of 1934. Our principle executive officer and principle accounting officer have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting based on the frame work in “Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organization of the Treadway Commission. Based the above evaluation, and in light of the prior deficiencies noted above, our principle executive officer and principle financial officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2011. Our March 31, 2011 10-Q filings may require restatement based on the representation in those filings that the internal controls and procedures were adequate.
The Company has also engaged the services of a consulting CPA with prior public company experience, and accounting qualification to supervise and mange the Company’s accounting and record keeping. In connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, there was not change identified there has been substantial changes of internal control over financial reporting that has occurred since June 30, 2011 that materially effects our internal controls over financial reporting. The company has extended the scope of its engagement with its professional advisors to focus more closing ensuring compliance with GAAP.

32
Conflicts of Interest
Members of our management are associated with other firms involved in a range of business activities. Consequently, there are potential inherent conflicts of interest in their acting as officers and directors of our company. Although the officers and directors are engaged in other business activities, we anticipate they will devote an important amount of time to our affairs.
Our officers and directors are now and may in the future become shareholders, officers or directors of other companies, which may be formed for the purpose of engaging in business activities similar to ours. Accordingly, additional direct conflicts of interest may arise in the future with respect to such individuals acting on behalf of us or other entities. Moreover, additional conflicts of interest may arise with respect to opportunities which come to the attention of such individuals in the performance of their duties or otherwise. Currently, we do not have a right of first refusal pertaining to opportunities that come to their attention and may relate to our business operations.
Our officers and directors are, so long as they are our officers or directors, subject to the restriction that all opportunities contemplated by our plan of operation which come to their attention, either in the performance of their duties or in any other manner, will be considered opportunities of, and be made available to us and the companies that they are affiliated with on an equal basis. A breach of this requirement will be a breach of the fiduciary duties of the officer or director. If we or the companies with which the officers and directors are affiliated both desire to take advantage of an opportunity, then said officers and directors would abstain from negotiating and voting upon the opportunity. However, all directors may still individually take advantage of opportunities if we should decline to do so. Except as set forth above, we have not adopted any other conflict of interest policy with respect to such transactions.
Compliance with Section 16(A) Of The Exchange Act 9.A. Directors And Executive Officers, Promoters, And Control Persons:
The Company is aware that all filings of Form 4 and 5 required of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act of Directors, Officers or holders of 10% of the Company's shares have not been timely and the Company has instituted procedures to ensure compliance in the future. Current management has not filed their forms 4 for 2011 but will file their forms 5 for the year ended December 31, 2011. The prior CEO/CFO has not filed his form 4 and 5s and we are uncertain the status of those filings.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of our executive officers, directors and employees. Code of ethics codifies the business and ethical principles that govern all aspects of our business. This document will be made available in print, free of charge, to any shareholder requesting a copy in writing from the Company.
