VANDERBILT GOLD CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1: INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying consolidated interim financial statements have not been
audited.  In the opinion of the Company's management, the interim financial
statements include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the
results for the interim periods.  These adjustments are of a normal recurring
nature.  The financial statements, prepared in accordance with the regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), should be read in
conjunction with the Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for
the full year.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of'
was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in March 1995. 
SFAS No. 121 requires, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995, that
an entity review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable and that an impairment loss be recognized as the amount by which the
carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.  The Company
adopted SFAS No. 121 effective January 1, 1996.  The adoption did not have an
effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation,' ("SFAS No. 1231 was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards
Board in October 1995.  SFAS No. 123 establishes, for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1995, financial and reporting standards for stock-based
employee compensation plans.  SFAS No. 123 encourages, but does not require, the
adoption of a fair-value-based method of accounting for such plans, in place of
current accounting standards.  Companies electing to continue their existing
accounting method must make pro forma disclosures of net income as if the fair-
value-based method of accounting had been applied.  The Company has elected to
continue with its existing accounting method and in accordance with SFAS No.
123, will have pro forma disclosures of net income in its financial statements
for the year ending December 31, 1996.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL
The company has focused its efforts on bringing the Los Coloradas mine into
production in Mexico, and getting the Morning Star Mine ready to resume
production.  The letter of understanding with Guardian Enterprises Ltd. and
Consolidated Viscount Ltd. the company has expired  and the company has not
entered into any other agreements with other parties on the La Sierra Concession
or the Morning Star Mine.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

Comparison of nine months and three months ended September 30, 1996 to nine
months and three months ended September 30, 1995:

The Company realized a net loss of $295,000 ($0.002 per share) for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996 which is $187,000 less than the $482,000  ($0.01
per share) net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 1995.  These losses
reflect the facts that the Company was concentrating on reclamation and
remediation activities at the Morning Star Mine ("Mine").  The Company spent
$16,000 on exploration expenses during the period ended September 30, 1996 on
concessions in Mexico contrasted to $113,000 exploration expenditures during the
same period in 1995

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

The Company's net working capital deficit increased by $175,000 over that of
September 30, 1995.  During the nine months ended September 30,1996 operating
losses and additions to property were funded primarily through issuance of stock
for cash and property.

The company has sustained recurring losses from operations and has a significant
working capital deficit.  Although the Company raised equity capital from
private placements in 1996, due to the uncertainties regarding its ability to
develop and attain profitable operations and raise capital in the future, there
can be no assurance of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
