The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities are determined through market, observable and corroborated sources.

Concentration of credit risk

The financial instrument which potentially subjects the Company to concentration of credit risk is cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. The Company maintains cash in bank accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has exceeded the federally insured limit. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-13, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), amending ASC 718. ASU 2010-13 clarifies that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the entity's equity securities trade should not be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. ASU 2010-13 also improves GAAP by improving consistency in financial reporting by eliminating diversity in practice. ASU 2010-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010 (January 1, 2011 for the Company). The Company does not expect its adoption to have a material impact on the Company's financial reporting and disclosures.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29, which contains updated accounting guidance to clarify the acquisition date that should be used for reporting pro forma financial information when comparative financial statements are issued. This update requires that a company should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. This update also requires disclosure of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments. The provisions of this update, which are to be applied prospectively, are effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The impact of this update on the Company's consolidated financial statements will depend on the size and nature of future business combinations.

The 1,000,000 Verbina shares received were valued at $411,440 at the date of the agreement. This value reduced the mineral properties value on the balance sheet. The shares are included in the investments account on the balance sheet and marked to market at the end of each reporting period. Further cash option payments received reduced the carrying value of the Muoso and Banso properties on the balance sheet.

Option agreement on Edum Banso Project

In October, 2005, XG Exploration entered into an option agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with Adom Mining Limited (“Adom”) to acquire 100% of Adom’s right, title and interest in and to a prospecting license on the Edum Banso concession (the “Edum Banso Project”) located in Ghana. Adom further granted XG Exploration the right to explore, develop, mine and sell mineral products from this concession. The prospecting license has been renewed for a two year period expiring on July 21, 2013.

The consideration paid for the Option Agreement was $15,000 with additional payments of $5,000 to be paid on the anniversary date of the Option Agreement in each year during the term which term has been extended to November 11, 2013. Upon the commencement of gold production, an additional $200,000 is to be paid, unless proven and probable reserves are less than 2,000,000 ounces, in which case the payment shall be reduced to $100,000.

Upon successful transfer of title from Adom to XG Exploration, a production royalty (the “Royalty”) of 2% of the net smelter returns shall be paid to Adom; provided, however that in the event that less than 2,000,000 ounces of proven and probable reserves are discovered, then the Royalty shall be 1%. The Royalty can be purchased by XG Exploration for $2,000,000; which will be reduced to $1,000,000 if proven and probable reserves are less than 2,000,000 ounces.

Mining lease and prospecting license commitments

The Company is committed to expend, from time to time fees to Mincom for an extension of an expiry date of a prospecting license (currently $15,000 for each occurrence) or a mining lease and the Environmental Protection Agency of Ghana (“EPA”) for processing and certificate fees with respect to EPA permits, an aggregate of less than $500 in connection with annual ground rent and mining permits to enter upon and gain access to the areas covered by the Company’s mining leases and prospecting licenses.

The aggregate intrinsic value for options vested as of June 30, 2011 is approximately $1,398,790 (December 31, 2010 - $1,312,200) and for total options outstanding is approximately $1,534,320 (December 31, 2010 - $2,447,200).

Stock-based compensation

The fair value of stock options granted during the six month period ended June 30, 2011 totaled $365,892 (December 31, 2010 - $594,388) of which at June 30, 2011 the remaining the $303,806 from the 2011 grants and $145,541 from 2010 grants will be expensed in future periods. A total of $99,422 has been included in general and administrative expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2011 (year ended December 31, 2010 - $411,507). During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company extended the life of previously granted options to May 1, 2013 which resulted in an expense of $468,052 which was included in general and administrative expenses.

Introduction

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial statements and results of operations of Xtra-Gold Resources Corp. (“Xtra-Gold” or “our company”) for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes to our company’s consolidated financial statements and other information presented elsewhere in this Report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect Xtra-Gold’s plans, estimates and beliefs. Our company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements set out herein. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to those discussed below and as contained elsewhere in this Report. Our company’s consolidated unaudited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

Highlights

Plan of Operations

We are a gold exploration company engaged in the exploration of gold properties in the Republic of Ghana, West Africa. Our mining portfolio currently consists of 246.47 sq km comprised of 33.65 sq km for our Kibi Project, 51.67 sq km for our Banso Project, 55.28 sq km for our Muoso Project, 44.76 sq km for our Kwabeng Project, 40.51 sq km for our Pameng Project and 20.60 sq km for our Edum Banso Project, or 60,969 acres, pursuant to the leased and licensed areas set forth in our respective mining leases, prospecting licenses and/or option agreement.

Our strategic plan is, with respect to our mineral projects: (i) to focus our efforts and dedicate our financial resources toward the potential to drill out a resource and, perhaps ultimately, a reserve of our Kibi Project located on the Kibi Gold Belt; (ii) to define a resource and, perhaps ultimately, a reserve on our other exploration projects; (iii) to enter into negotiations with independent Ghanaian contract miners and operators to assume our recovery of gold operations at our Kwabeng Project with a view to these contractors conducting recovery of placer gold operations for fixed payments to our company; and (iv) to acquire further interests in gold mineralized projects that fall within the criteria of providing a geological basis for development of drilling initiatives that can enhance shareholder value by demonstrating the potential to define reserves.

As part of our current business strategy, we plan to continue engaging technical personnel under contract where possible as our management believes that this strategy, at its current level of development, provides the best services available in the circumstances, leads to lower overall costs, and provides the best flexibility for our business operations.

We anticipate that our ongoing efforts will continue to be focused on the exploration and development of our Projects and completing acquisitions in strategic areas.

In October 2008, we suspended our operations at our Kwabeng Project while our management considered a more economic and efficient manner in which to extract and process the gold recovered from the mineralized material at this Project. As at the date of this Report, we have not planned to resume operations at our Kwabeng Project. During the next 12 months, we plan to (i) enter into negotiations to contract out the recovery of placer gold operations at this Project, as noted above; (ii) advance the development of our Kibi Project by continuing to carry out the 2011 Drill Program; and (iii) acquire further interests in mineral projects by way of acquisition or joint venture participation.

We anticipate that, during 2011, we will spend an aggregate of approximately $6,000,000comprised of $5,000,000 for exploration expenses in connection with our 2011 Drill Program of our Kibi Project located on the Kibi Gold Belt to identify a potential resource and approximately $1,000,000 for general and administrative expenses (which includes approximately $500,000 in non-cash expenses).

Our company has historically relied on equity and debt financings to finance its ongoing operations. Existing working capital, possible debt instruments, anticipated warrant exercises, further private placements and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our company’s operations over the next year. During the future years, subsequent to 2011, we require additional capital to implement our plan of operations. We anticipate that these funds primarily will be raised through equity and debt financing or from other available sources of financing. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, it may result in the dilution in the equity ownership of investors in our common stock. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available upon acceptable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to take advantage of prospective new opportunities or acquisitions, which could significantly and materially restrict our operations, or we may be forced to discontinue our current projects.

Trends

In 2010, many commodity and stock market indices experienced historically high levels of volatility in the face of the global economic crisis. Financial market conditions continued to improve during the year as global credit markets started to return to a more normal position, investor confidence improved and most economies experienced positive growth.

During the year, the US dollar was generally in decline, primarily from concerns about the level of US government borrowings and the growing US deficit and from the low interest rates offered on US dollar deposits. The EURO also weakened against the Canadian dollar as a result of low interest rates, concerns about the solvency of certain European economies and the level of sovereign debt in those countries.

Gold price volatility in 2010 remained high with the price reaching a record level of US$1,424 per ounce. During the second quarter of 2011, the gold price continued to increase and to be volatile, reaching a high of $1,552.66 per ounce on June 22, 2011 of the June 2011 quarter. The average market price for the second quarter of 2011 was $1,504.30 per ounce and for 2010 was US$1,195.68 per ounce. The tone for the precious metals market in the remainder of 2011 will depend on whether the US dollar will be supported, and if the central banks will continue to maintain interest rates at low levels to support economic growth. The continued global easing of monetary policy could lead to higher inflation and further US dollar depreciation in the coming years. This dollar depreciation could have a positive impact on gold prices in the future and the long–term upward trend in prices may continue. Conversely, subdued inflation rates and the recovering global economy could put downward pressure on the gold price in the future. Additionally, recent events in North Africa and the Middle East could continue to have a positive effect on the gold price.

Overall, a lower US dollar should lead to higher costs in US dollar terms to identify and explore for gold but could be more than offset by higher gold prices, resulting in greater interest in gold exploration companies. Conversely, if the US dollar strengthens, interest in the gold exploration sector could be reduced.

Summary of Quarterly Results

Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010

Our company’s loss for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $1,423,584 as compared to a net loss of $886,367 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $537,217. We incurred expenses of $1,493,374 in the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $750,967 in the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase $742,407. The increase in expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2010 can be primarily attributed to an increase in exploration costs to $1,122,471 (2010 - $255,362) resulting from drilling and other exploration activities conducted at our Kibi Project. Increased exploration spending was significantly offset by gold recovery during the quarter. All exploration costs for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were booked as exploration expenses.

- 23 -

General and administrative expenses (“G&A”) of $321,739 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to $485,724 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 can be primarily attributed to stock-based compensation of $78,111 (2010 - $287,554) expensed with respect to stock options vested during the period, consulting fees, legal, auditor and regulatory filing fees, travel and promotional expenses.

Other items totaled a loss of $45,345 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to a loss of $146,638 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, our company had a foreign exchange loss of $271,641 compared to a loss of $38,203 in the three months ended June 30, 2010 which loss can be attributed to currency fluctuations.

Our company’s portfolio of marketable securities had an unrealized loss of $47,481 in the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to an unrealized loss of $170,586 in the three months ended June 30, 2010 which loss can be attributed to extreme volatility in the public equity markets this reporting period. Other income, primarily derived from interest earned, increased in the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $12,873 as compared to $10,851 in 2010.

Our company’s basic and diluted income (loss) per share for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was ($0.03) compared to $(0.03) per share for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 43,668,909 at June 30, 2011 compared to 34,115,817 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in the weighted average number of shares outstanding can be attributed to the issuance of 8,092,593 shares in the November 2010 placement and the issuance of 1,045,050 shares in connection with the conversion of warrants and finders’ warrants during the second quarter.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2010

Our company’s loss for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $1,855,046 as compared to a net loss of $998,565 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $856,481. Increased exploration spending was significantly offset by gold recovery and a gain on disposition of equipment, especially in the first quarter of 2011. Gold recovery was reduced in the second quarter of 2011 and the investment portfolio posted unrealized losses, mostly from the Buccaneer shares.

Our company’s basic and diluted loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $0.04 compared to net loss of $0.03 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 43,322,266 at June 30, 2011 compared to 33,725,082 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in the weighted average number of shares outstanding can be mostly attributed to the issuance of 8,092,593 shares in the November 2010 placement and the issuance of 1,070,050 shares in connection with the conversion of warrants and finders’ warrants during the period.

Exploration spending for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $2,691,449 as compared to $437,269 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $2,254,180. Exploration spending in 2011 reflected the funds available from the November 2010 financing while spending in 2010 reflected conservation of cash available at that time.

Exploration work was focused primarily on the Kibi Project in the six-month period. We drilled 5,175 metres and trenched 795 metres.

General and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $577,084 as compared to $719,917 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an decrease of $142,833. Most of the 2011 spending reflects travel and promotional spending of $69,461 to attend trade shows and visit our projects. Consulting and director fees were $116,725, while non-cash stock based compensation expense was $99,422. The balance of the general and administrative expense of $291,476 related to legal, auditor, regulatory and rental fees.

Amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $79,566 as compared to $20,634 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $58,932. We added two excavators, two bulldozer and two vehicles at a purchase cost of $849,796 to the assets, which increased the comparative expense in 2011.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we received 1,121 ounces of gold from our share of the placer gold operations. These placer gold operations have been contracted to local Ghanaian groups which pay a portion of their gold receipts to us for the right to work on our projects. We pay all government royalties due on all of the production. This method promotes the local economy while avoiding illegal workings on our projects. Our gold receipts, after royalties, were sold for $1,282,679.

Unrealized investment portfolio losses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $66,990 as compared to an unrealized loss of $18,301 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $48,689. Most of the unrealized loss in 2011 related to the 1,000,000 Buccaneer shares received in the first quarter of 2011. The decrease in realized gains in 2011 comparative to 2010 resulted from the sale of much of the investment portfolio during 2010, leaving very little in the account at December 31, 2010.

- 24 -

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we sold a placer gold recovery plant with book value $27,942 for $288,000 for a net gain of $260,058. Our decision to use local Ghanaian contractors for placer gold operations made the plant a non-core asset to us. Most of the cash received was used to purchase a bulldozer and excavator which we will use in our continuing exploration efforts.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our activities, principally the exploration and acquisition of properties for gold and other metals, may be financed through joint ventures or through the completion of equity transactions such as equity offerings and the exercise of stock options and warrants. In November 2010, our company issued 8,092,593 common shares for proceeds of $10.8 million in conjunction with our IPO on to the TSX. We issued 566,482 broker warrants related to the November 2010 financing.

At June 30, 2011, accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased to $378,345 (December 31, 2010 - $517,236), due to general business payables. Our cash and cash equivalents as at June 30, 2011 was sufficient to pay these liabilities.

At June 30, 2011, we had total cash of $9,097,834 (December 31, 2010 - $10,096,122). Working capital as of June 30, 2011 was $9,297,536 (December 31, 2010 - $9,833,381). The decrease in cash mostly reflects exploration and administrative spending net of gold recovery. Proceeds from the sale of equipment were mostly absorbed by the purchase of other equipment.

At June 30, 2011, Buccaneer closed its financing and paid us $425,000 which was due as an option fee on our Banso and Muoso concessions and a further $300,000 for exploration work done on these projects to date.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we received $1,276,075 in connection with the conversion of 1,070,050 warrants and finders’ warrants.

We are an exploration company focused on gold and associated commodities and do not have operating revenues; and therefore, we must utilize our current cash reserves, income from placer gold sales, income from investments, funds obtained from the exercise of stock options and warrants and other financing transactions to maintain our capacity to meet the planned exploration programs, or to fund any further development activities. There is no certainty that future financing will be available to us in the amounts or at the times desired on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

Our common shares, warrants and stock options outstanding as at August 10, 2011, June 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010 were as follows:

As of the date of this report, the full exercise of all warrants and options would raise approximately $3.5 million. Exercise of these warrants and options is not anticipated until the market value of our common shares increases in value.

We remain debt free and our credit and interest rate risk is limited to interest-bearing assets of cash and bank or government guaranteed investment vehicles. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are short-term and non-interest bearing.

Our liquidity risk with financial instruments is minimal as excess cash is invested with a Canadian financial institution in government-backed securities or bank-backed guaranteed investment certificates.

Our fiscal 2011 budget is approximately $6.0 million as disclosed above under the heading “Plan of Operations”. As of the date of this MD&A, our total cash position is sufficient to meet our current budgetary requirements for 2011. These expenditures are subject to change if management decides to scale back or accelerate operations.

We expect to be adequately capitalized to fund ongoing operations at the current level in the short-term for fiscal 2011. Thereafter from 2012, we will require additional funds from equity sources to maintain the current momentum on our projects.

Recent Capital Raising Transactions

During November 2010, we raised $10.8 million from the issuance of 8,092,593 common shares.

Material Commitments

Mineral Property Commitments

Save and except for fees payable from time to time to (i) the Minerals Commission for an extension of an expiry date of a prospecting license (current consideration fee payable is $15,000) or mining lease or annual operating permits; (ii) the EPA for the issuance of permits prior to the commencement of any work at a particular concession or the posting of a bond in connection with any mining operations undertaken by our company; and (iii) a legal obligation associated with our mineral properties for clean up costs when work programs are completed, we are committed to expend an aggregate of less than $500 in connection with annual or ground rent and mining permits to enter upon and gain access to the following concessions and such other financial commitments arising out of any approved exploration programs in connection therewith:

Upon and following the commencement of gold production at any of our Projects, a royalty of the net smelter returns is payable quarterly to the Government of Ghana as prescribed by legislation.

With respect to the Edum Banso Project:

Repayment of Convertible Debentures and Accrued Interest

We issued Convertible Debentures aggregating the face value of $900,000 in July 2005 under which interest was calculated at 7% per annum. Interest only payments were payable quarterly on the last days of September, December, March and June in each year of the term or until such time that the principal was repaid in the full. The Convertible Debenture holders were entitled, at their option, to convert, at any time and from time to time, until payment in full of their respective Convertible Debentures, all or any part of the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Debenture, plus the Accrued Interest, into shares (the “Conversion Shares”) of our common stock at the conversion price of $1.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”). Each Convertible Debenture provided for the automatic conversion of the outstanding principal amount and all accrued but unpaid interest, into shares of our common stock, at the Conversion Price, in the event that our common stock traded for 20 consecutive trading days (a) with a closing bid price of at least $1.50 per share and (b) a cumulative trading volume during such twenty (20) trading day period of at least 1,000,000 shares.

In June 2008, we provided notice of the automatic conversion of the Convertible Debentures and in July 2008 we converted $650,000 of the aggregate principal of $900,000 of the Convertible Debentures by way of the issuance of 650,000 Conversion Shares. In February 2010 we converted the outstanding principal of $250,000 owing under one remaining Convertible Debenture by way of the issuance of 250,000 Conversion Shares.

- 26 -

Purchase of Significant Equipment

We consider the availability of equipment to conduct our exploration activities. Due to demand from the mining and exploration industry, at this time it is difficult to source resources for exploration work in Ghana, including drills, excavators and bulldozers. We will consider the further acquisition of equipment pieces to allow work to expand on our projects.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our company has no off balance sheet arrangements.

Significant Accounting Applications

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Generally accepted accounting principles

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

Principles of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our company, our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Xtra Energy (from October 31, 2003), XGEL (from February 16, 2004), XOG (from October 20, 2005) and XOGG (from March 2, 2006) and our 90% owned subsidiary, XG Mining (from December 22, 2004). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

Our company considers highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash held at financial institutions.

Receivables

Oil and natural gas properties

During the year ended December 31, 2010, our company sold its oil and gas interests. Our company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas operations. Under this method, all costs associated with the acquisition of, exploration for and development of oil and gas reserves are capitalized in cost centers on a country-by-country basis. Such costs include property acquisition costs, geological and geophysical studies, carrying charges on non-producing properties, costs of drilling productive wells, and overhead expenses directly related to these activities.

Depletion is calculated for producing properties by using the unit-of-production method based on estimated proved reserves, before royalties, as determined by management of our company or independent consultants. Sales or dispositions of oil and gas properties are credited to the respective cost centers and a gain or loss is recognized when all properties in a cost center have been disposed of, unless such sale or disposition significantly alters the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas attributable to the cost center. Costs of abandoned properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs and written off to expense.

Undeveloped properties are excluded from the depletion calculation until the quantities of proved reserves can be determined.

A ceiling test is applied to the proven properties for each cost center and for the aggregate of all cost centers by comparing the net capitalized costs to the estimated future net revenues from production of estimated proved reserves without discount, plus the costs of unproved properties net of impairment. Any excess capitalized costs are written off to expense. Further, the ceiling test for the aggregate of all cost centers is required to include the effects of future removal and site restoration costs, general and administrative expenses, financing costs and income taxes. The calculation of future net revenues is based upon prices, costs and regulations in effect at each year end.

Unproved properties are assessed for impairment on an annual basis by applying factors that rely on historical experience. In general, our company may write off any unproved property under one or more of the following conditions:

Equipment

Equipment is recorded at cost and is being amortized over its estimated useful lives using the declining balance method at the following annual rates:

Deferred financing costs

Deferred financing costs consist of expenses incurred to obtain funds pursuant to the issuance of the convertible debentures and are being amortized straight-line over the term of the debentures.

Mineral properties and exploration and development costs

The costs of acquiring mineral rights are capitalized at the date of acquisition. After acquisition, various factors can affect the recoverability of the capitalized costs. If, after review, our management concludes that the carrying amount of a mineral property is impaired, it will be written down to estimated fair value. Exploration costs incurred on mineral properties are expensed as incurred. Development costs incurred on proven and probable reserves will be capitalized. Upon commencement of production, capitalized costs will be amortized using the unit-of-production method over the estimated life of the ore body based on proven and probable reserves (which exclude non-recoverable reserves and anticipated processing losses). When our company receives an option payment related to a property, the proceeds of the payment are applied to reduce the carrying value of the exploration asset.

- 28 -

Long-lived assets

Long-lived assets held and used by our company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, the recoverability test is performed using undiscounted net cash flows related to the long-lived assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

Asset retirement obligations

Our company records the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development, and/or normal use of the long-lived assets. Our company also records a corresponding asset which is amortized over the life of the asset. Subsequent to the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the obligation is adjusted at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time (accretion expense) and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the obligation (asset retirement cost).

Stock-based compensation

Our company accounts for share-based compensation under the provisions of ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”. Under the fair value recognition provisions, stock-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date for all stock-based awards to employees and directors and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The Black-Scholes option valuation model is used to calculate fair value.

Our company accounts for stock compensation arrangements with non-employees in accordance with ASC 718 which require that such equity instruments are recorded at their fair value on the measurement date. The measurement of stock-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying equity instruments vest. Nonemployee stock-based compensation charges are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. For stock options granted to non-employees, the fair value of the stock options is estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model.

Income taxes

Our company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under the asset and liability method the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be recognized.

Loss per share

Basic loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. To calculate diluted loss per share, our company uses the treasury stock method and the if converted method. As of June 30, 2011, there were 1,327,720 warrants (December 31, 2010 – 2,439,320) and 2,097,000 stock options (December 31, 2010 – 1,788,000) exercisable into common shares (December 31, 2010 – Nil) outstanding, none of which have been included in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding as these were anti-dilutive.

Foreign exchange

Our company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Any monetary assets and liabilities that are in a currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated at the rate prevailing at period end. Revenue and expenses in a foreign currency are translated at rates that approximate those in effect at the time of translation. Gains and losses from translation of foreign currency transactions into U.S. dollars are included in current results of operations.

Financial instruments

Our company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trading securities, receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. It is our management’s opinion that our company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from its financial instruments. The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values unless otherwise noted. Our company has its cash primarily in government or bank guaranteed deposit certificates or in cash on account at one commercial bank in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities

Our company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on GAAP guidance which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Effective January 1, 2008, our company adopted the provisions for financial assets and liabilities, as well as for any other assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis. Effective January 1, 2009, our company adopted the provisions for non-financial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value.

Our company classifies financial assets and liabilities as held-for-trading, available-for-sale, held-to-maturity, loans and receivables or other financial liabilities depending on their nature. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized at fair value on their initial recognition, except for those arising from certain related party transactions which are accounted for at the transferor’s carrying amount or exchange amount.

Financial assets and liabilities classified as held-for-trading are measured at fair value, with gains and losses recognized in net income. Financial assets classified as held-to-maturity, loans and receivables, and financial liabilities other than those classified as held-for-trading are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest method of amortization. Financial assets classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses being recognized as other comprehensive income until realized, or if an unrealized loss is considered other than temporary, the unrealized loss is recorded in income.

Financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, receivables, restricted cash, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value due to the short term nature of these instruments. Investments in trading securities are classified as held for trading, with unrealized gains and losses being recognized in income.

The following table presents information about the assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2010, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques our company utilized to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and included situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset:

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities are determined through market, observable and corroborated sources.

Concentration of credit risk

The financial instrument which potentially subjects our company to concentration of credit risk is cash. Our company maintains cash in bank accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As of June 30, 2011and December 31, 2010, our company has exceeded the federally insured limit. Our company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2010-13, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), amending ASC 718. ASU 2010-13 clarifies that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the entity's equity securities trade should not be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. ASU 2010-13 also improves GAAP by improving consistency in financial reporting by eliminating diversity in practice. ASU 2010-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010 (January 1, 2011 for our company). Our company does not expect its adoption to have a material impact on our company's financial reporting and disclosures.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29, which contains updated accounting guidance to clarify the acquisition date that should be used for reporting pro forma financial information when comparative financial statements are issued. This update requires that a company should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. This update also requires disclosure of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments. The provisions of this update, which are to be applied prospectively, are effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The impact of this update on our company's consolidated financial statements will depend on the size and nature of future business combinations.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.

Based on that evaluation, our management has concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Report our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our 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:

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

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2011. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Management's assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of these controls. Based on this assessment, our management has concluded that as of June 30, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

During the fourth quarter of 2010, we hired a Chief Financial Officer. Throughout the fourth quarter of 2010, our Chief Financial Officer began building the accounting and finance team and began putting the necessary procedures and system controls in place to strengthen our internal controls. During the fourth quarter of 2010, we also hired additional staff which allowed us to more effectively implement policies and checklists setting forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements. These changes specifically addressed our internal control over preparation of the financial statements and implementing a greater level of review and oversight over our internal controls over financial reporting. During the second quarter of 2011, internal control of the financial statement preparation was further strengthened as the compilation of the financial statements by external consultants was terminated and we prepared the statements ourselves. Other than these changes, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with our evaluation that occurred during our quarter ended June 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
