REPORT ON REVIEW BY INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
The Board of Directors
Zeb Oro Exploration Inc.
We have reviewed the condensed balance sheet of Zeb Oro Exploration Inc.
(exploration stage company) as of June 30, 2000, March 31, 2000 and December 31,
1999 and the related condensed statements of operations and the condensed
statement of cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999 and the period March 4, 1999 (date of inception) to June 30, 2000. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements for them to be in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

(Exploration Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2000
(Unaudited - Prepared by Management)
1. ORGANIZATION
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on
March 4, 1999 with the authorized common shares of 200,000,000 shares
at $0.001 par value.
The Company was organized for the purpose of acquiring and developing
mineral properties. A mineral claim, with unknown reserves, has been
acquired. The Company has not established the existence of a
commercially minable ore deposit and therefore has not reached the
development stage and is considered to be in the exploration stage (see
Note 3).
The Company has completed a Regulation D offering of 11,025,000 shares
of its capital stock for cash.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting Methods
The Company recognizes income and expenses based on the accrual method
of accounting.
Dividend Policy
The Company has not yet adopted a policy regarding payment of
dividends.
Income Taxes
On June 30, 2000 the Company had a net operating loss carry forward of
$40,698. The tax benefit from the loss carry forward has been fully
offset by a valuation reserve because the use of the future tax benefit
is doubtful since the Company has no operations. The loss carry forward
will expire in 2020.
Earnings (Loss) per Share
Earnings (loss) per share amounts are computed based on the weighted
average number of shares actually outstanding.
Comprehensive Income
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
130. The adoption of the standard had no impact on the total
stockholder's equity.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited - Prepared by Management)
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect that the adoption of other recent
accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial
statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a
maturity, at the time of purchase, of less than three months, to be
cash equivalents.
Capitalization of Mineral Claim Costs
Cost of acquisition, exploration, carrying, and retained unproven
properties are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred in proving and
developing a property ready for production are capitalized and
amortized over the life of the mineral deposit or over a shorter period
if the property is shown to have an impairment in value. Expenditures
for mining equipment are capitalized and depreciated over their useful
life.
Environmental Requirements
Environmental requirements related to the mineral claims acquired (Note
3) are unknown and therefore an estimate of any future cost cannot be
made.
Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of financial instruments, including cash and
accounts payable,, is considered by management to be its standard fair
value.
Estimates and Assumptions
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of the
assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results
could vary from the estimates that were assumed in preparing these
financial statements.

3. ACQUISITION OF MINERAL CLAIM
The Company has acquired one 15 unit metric mineral claim known as the
Zeb Oro Claim located in the Zeballos mining camp near the town of
Zeballos about 300 kilometres northwest of Victoria, British Columbia
with an expiration date of February 25, 2001.
The claims may be retained by the Company by making a yearly lease
payment in the amount of CDN $3,000 on February 25, 2001.
The claims have not been proven to have a commercial minable ore
reserve and therefore all costs for exploration and retaining the
properties have been expensed.
4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Related parties acquired 45% of the common stock issued.
The officers and directors of the Company are involved in other
business activities and they may, in the future, become involved in
additional business ventures which also may require their attention. If
a specific business opportunity becomes available, such persons may
face a conflict in selecting between the Company and their other
business interests. The Company has formulated no policy for the
resolution of such conflicts.
5. GOING CONCERN
The Company will need additional working capital to be successful in
its planned activities and continuation of the Company as a going
concern is dependent upon obtaining additional working capital and the
management of the Company has developed a strategy, which it believes
will accomplish this objective through additional equity funding, and
long term financing, which will enable the Company to operate for the
coming year.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ITEM 2. PLAN OF OPERATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company has not yet proceeded to its mineral claim to undertake a soil
sampling program on the geochemical grid it outlined in October of last year. No
decision has been made to date by the directors of the Company as to what date
to commence the sampling program. The general feeling by the directors is that
the fire assays from the soil samples will concentrate on precious metals rather
than commercial metals.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has not yet decided on the method of raising funds in order to
undertake its soil sampling program on its mineral claims.
Results of Operations
To date the Company has had no operations.
