1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements reflect all
normally recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the Company's
financial position and results of operations for the periods indicated. The
accompanying interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and related notes included in the Company's 10-KSB for the
period ended December 31, 1998, which has been filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in the Company's annual financial statements have been omitted from the
quarterly financial statements based upon Securities and Exchange Commissions
rules and regulations. Net loss per common and common equivalent share was
computed based on the net loss divided by the weighted average number of common
and common equivalent shares outstanding, unless antidilutive, during the year
presented.

and to move one of its properties into the development and production stages
within the next two years.

4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The authorized capital of the Company consists of 80,000,000 shares of
Common Stock, par value $.01, of which 20,901,000 are outstanding. The material
terms of the securities are as follows:
All of the authorized common shares of the Company are of the same class
and, once issued, rank equally as to dividends, voting powers and participation
in assets. Holders of common shares are entitled to one vote for each share held
of record on all matters to be acted upon by the shareholders. Holders of common
shares are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared from time to
time by the Board of Directors, in its discretion, out of funds legally
available therefrom. No shares have been issued subject to call or assessment.
There are no preemptive or conversion rights and no provisions for redemption or
purchase for cancellation, surrender, or sinking or purchase funds, nor any
cumulative voting rights. The Directors of the Company may from time to time
declare and authorize payment of dividends, as they deem advisable. Subject to
the rights of members, all dividends on shares shall be declared and paid
according to the number of shares held. No dividends have been declared since
incorporation. The outstanding shares are fully paid and non-assessable.

A class of preferred stock has been authorized with a par value of $0.01.
No shares of preferred stock have been authorized for issuance by the Board of
Directors as of the date of this statement. The rights, privileges and
preferences of any series of preferred stock shall be determined by the Board of
Directors at the time of issuance.
There is no provision in the Company's Articles of Incorporation, as
amended, or Bylaws that would delay, defer, or prevent a change in control of
the Company.
5. YEAR 2000 MATTERS
The inability of computers, software, and other equipment utilizing
microprocessors to recognize and properly process date fields containing a two
digit year reference such as "00" for the year 2000 is commonly referred to as
the Year 2000 issue. The primary Y2K risk to the Company's operations is
service disruption from third party providers that supply equipment for the
mining projects. Any disruption to these services would hinder the Company's
ability to operate. Therefore, efforts are currently under way to obtain Y2K
compliance certification from the Company's major equipment providers. Concern
about potential problems has been raised, but commitment to compliance is beyond
the Company's control.
The Company has not yet approved a formal contingency plan for Y2K issues,
however, a formal contingency plan is expected to be completed and approved
during 1999.
Item 2. Management's Plan of Operations
The Company is in its initial stages of exploration with no revenues or
income and is subject to all the risks inherent in the creation of a new
business. The Company has not yet had revenues from operations. Accordingly,
the following information centers upon the Company's plan of operation.
The Company owns the mineral rights and surface rights to three
properties on which it believes are located commercially mineable vanadium
deposits. The three properties are referred to as the Gibellini, Bisoni, and
Bisoni-McKay properties. The Company believes, based on a Pre-Feasibility
Report and Pro Forma Cash Flow Study for the Gibellini, Bisoni, Bisoni-Mckay
Vanadium Deposits in Eureka and Nye Counties, Nevada for the Company by Jules
Pierre LaPrairie, P.E., that the three properties contain approximately 19 to 21
million tons of 0.42% vanadium pentoxide hosted within Devonian black shale
facies.
To date, $23,719 has been spent by the company on exploration and
development expenses, including title research, claim staking and filing fees
with the State of Nevada and Counties, annual rental payments to the Bureau of
Land Management ($100 per claim), travel expenses for site visits to the
property, library research and acquisition of reports, data and investigations
from previous owners of the project.
The Company intends to continue with exploration and development of its
properties; although, the Company's focus for the next two years will be to have
one of its properties move into the production stage. Additional exploration
and development will occur on the first property to be exploited and on other
Company properties.
Liquidity
To date the Company's activities have been financed primarily through the
sale of equity securities. No assurance can be given that the proceeds of the
private offering of the Company's securities or any other source of funding
described above will provide sufficient funds to undertake all of the Company's
planned project expansion for the next twelve months. It is anticipated that
significant additional funds will be required to complete the development of any
commercially viable project. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to obtain such additional financing, and whether the terms of such
financing would be favorable to the Company. Failure to obtain such financing
could be detrimental to the success of the project. No contracts or commitments
have been entered into at this time.
