ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Business.
Uranium Power Corporation (the "Company") is a Colorado corporation formed
on April 3, 1998. The Company is a Canada-based company engaged in the
exploration of uranium properties. The Company was formed as a result of
management's perception of the upcoming worldwide shortage of uranium. The
Company is in the exploration stage, and there is no assurance that a
commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of its properties. Further
exploration will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic and
legal feasibility is determined. The Company intends to identify, acquire and
develop uranium properties in the Athabasca Basin in northern Saskatchewan,
Canada.
On April 13, 1998, the Company acquired a 100% interest in two uranium
properties located in northern Saskatchewan, Canada, pursuant to an Acquisition
Agreement (the "Acquisition Agreement") with Athabasca Uranium Syndicate, a
syndicate formed in British Columbia, Canada ("Athabasca"). Athabasca was
founded by the promoters of the Company. Under the terms of the Acquisition
Agreement, the Company acquired all of Athabasca's assets, the majority of which
comprised the "Hocking Lake Property" and the "Henday Lake Property." In
exchange, the Company issued 6,000,000 shares of its common stock to Athabasca
(or 300,000 shares per Syndicate Unit of Athabasca). The Hocking Lake Property
consists of five mining claims in two groups totaling 49,924 acres located west
of Black Lake, Saskatchewan. The Henday Lake Property consists of three
contiguous mining claims totaling 28,428 acres in the Henday and Mallen Lakes
area. The Company does not know of any known reserves of uranium on these
properties, but it intends to explore the Hocking Lake and the Henday Lake
Properties to attempt to identify uranium prospects.
The map on the following page reflects the location of each of the
Company's properties.

The Company entered into a letter agreement dated July 29, 1998 with J. R.
Billingsley, the registered owner of claim #S-106087 (the "Billingsley Claim")
in Northern Mining District, Saskatchewan, regarding property known as the "Hump
Lake Property." Under the letter agreement, the Company had until October 1,
1998 to notify Mr. Billingsley whether it wanted to proceed with exploring and
developing the Billingsley Claim. The Company's deadline was extended from
October 1, 1998 to December 1, 1999. Under the agreement, if the Company desired
to proceed with exploring and developing the claim, Mr. Billingsley would
transfer his 100% ownership of the Billingsley Claim to the Company upon (i) the
issuance of 50,000 shares of the Company's $0.001 par value common stock to Mr.
Murray Swetz; (ii) the payment of $13,375 Can. (Canadian Dollars) to Mr.
Billingsley; (iii) an agreement by the Company to pay Mr. Billingsley U.S. $0.35
per pound of uranium bearing minerals mined from the claim when the price is
U.S. $18.00 per pound or less, and U.S. $0.50 per pound when the price is more
than U.S. $18.00 per pound, plus 3% of net smelter returns on other minerals
mined from the claim; (iv) an agreement by the Company to use its best efforts
to bring the property to production; and (v) the execution of a formal agreement
based on the terms set forth in the letter agreement. If the Company decided not
to explore and develop the claim, it would be entitled to file its exploration
expenditures on the claim as assessment work and would provide Mr. Billingsley
the results of its exploration activities. The Company has decided to proceed,
and the Company has conducted an aerial geophysical survey on the property, paid
the $13,375 to Mr. Billingsley, and issued the 50,000 shares of stock to Mr.
Swetz. The agreement is in good standing.
On December 16, 1998, the Company executed an Exploration Option and
Operating Joint Venture Agreement ("Joint Venture Agreement") with Phelps Dodge
Corporation of Canada, Ltd., a Delaware corporation ("PDC"), under which PDC
granted the Company an option to acquire an interest in six uranium properties
("PDC Properties") in Saskatchewan consisting of a 100% interest in 11 mining
claims and totaling 74,756 acres. A portion of these six properties are located
close to what Saskatchewan Energy and Mines, the provincial agency governing
mining claims and operations, has determined to be some of the richest known
remaining uranium deposits in the world, such as Cigar Lake (353 million pounds
uranium oxide), MacArthur River (213.8 million pounds uranium oxide) and Key
Lake (24.4 million pounds uranium oxide). See, "Saskatchewan Exploration and
Development Highlights 1999," Exploration and Development, 1999, Saskatchewan
Energy and Mines. In order to exercise its option to acquire a 100% interest in
the six PDC Properties under the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company must incur
expenditures of at least U.S. $338,000 ($500,000 Can. (Canadian dollars)) by May
31, 2000, and an additional U.S. $1,690,000 ($2,500,000 Can.) in expenditures by
December 31, 2003 from prospecting, exploring, developing and mining the six
properties. PDC will be entitled to a royalty from the uranium produced from the
PDC Properties if the Company exercises its option.
-4-
<PAGE>
Under the Joint Venture Agreement, if the Company exercises its option to
acquire the PDC Properties, the Company grants PDC an earn back option. The earn
back option gives PDC the option to surrender its right to royalties and obtain
a 35% interest in the PDC Properties if PDC incurs expenditures of at least U.S.
$2,028,000 ($3,000,000 Can.) by December 31, 2006 from prospecting, exploring,
developing and mining the six properties.
On March 24, 1999, the Company entered into a Property Option Agreement
with Pacific Amber Resources Ltd., a British Columbia corporation ("Pacific
Amber"), under which the Company granted Pacific Amber an option to acquire a
50% interest in the Company's rights to be obtained under the Joint Venture
Agreement with PDC. The Company and Pacific Amber are not affiliated with each
other, although the companies share a common director. Pacific Amber will be
entitled to exercise its option if it incurs the U.S. $338,000 ($500,000 Can.)
in expenditures by the extended deadline of May 31, 2000 that are required to be
expended by the Company under the Joint Venture Agreement. The Company issued
200,000 of its shares of common stock to Pacific Amber upon execution of the
Property Option Agreement. All decisions to be taken with respect to the initial
program to expend U.S. $338,000 ($500,000 Can.) under the Joint Venture
Agreement are to be handled by a management committee, with the Company and
Pacific Amber each appointing two members to the four member committee. Pacific
Amber has a deciding vote in the event of a split of votes.
If Pacific Amber satisfies its expenditure obligations by May 31, 2000
under the Property Option Agreement, then subsequent to May 31, 2000, the
Company's and Pacific Amber's interests in the PDC Properties will be
proportionately adjusted based on the amount of expenditures that each company
incurs between January 1, 2000 and the May 31, 2000 deadline to incur an
additional U.S. $1,690,000 ($2,500,000 Can.) under the Joint Venture Agreement
with PDC. In the event that either the Company's or Pacific Amber's
proportionate interests are adjusted based on expenditures to a percentage that
is less than 15%, then that company's interest will be converted to a 5% net
profit interest.
With the ability to explore a total of more than 178,000 acres in a uranium
belt considered by Saskatchewan Energy and Mines to be one of the richest in the
world, the Company's management believes it is well positioned to identify and
develop a significant amount of uranium. However, there is no assurance that the
Company will be able to discover, develop and produce sufficient uranium
reserves in the Hocking Lake Property, the Henday Lake Property, the Hump Lake
Property or elsewhere. Further, there can be no assurance that the Company will
recover the expenses incurred when it explores its properties or claims, or that
it will achieve profitability.
The Company's management believes it's key strengths lie in the
acquisition, financing and exploration of world class uranium properties, and in
the principals' extensive industry contacts worldwide. Together with the
-5-
<PAGE>
experience in the uranium industry of Thornton Donaldson, the Company's
President, the Company is positioning itself to become a significant player in
the field of uranium exploration and development.
The Company will require additional funds to support its operations over
the next 12 months, and plans to raise funds by offering its common stock in
private placements. Significant sales of equity capital by Uranium Power to
raise funds could potentially result in significant dilution to shareholders of
the Company.
The Company's future financial performance is dependent, in part, on the
following factors: The price of uranium. The price of uranium may be impacted by
the supply and demand for uranium. Currently, worldwide demand exceeds the
supply; however, there is no assurance this favorable relationship will
continue. The industry is dominated by a few large companies, and the price is
also impacted by competition from many other companies engaged in similar
activities as the Company. Some of those entities have more experience and
greater resources than the Company. The absence of any operating history. The
Company is a recently-formed entity, which has not yet begun full operations.
The Company's management has extensive experience in acquiring, exploring,
financing and developing mineral properties; but it does not have extensive
experience in operating producing mines. There is no assurance that the
Company's management will be able to manage the Company and its operations
effectively and efficiently. The Company does not yet have any full-time
employees; and there is no assurance that the Company will attract the necessary
employees to maximize its performance. Operating Risks. The uranium exploration
and mining industry is highly speculative, and is subject to the uncertainty of
exploration that is inherent in this industry. Government Regulation. The
Company's planned operations are subject to considerable government regulation.
The Company must obtain both Canadian and provincial governmental approval as it
approaches the production stage of developing its properties. The approval
process can be lengthy, and there is no assurance the Company will obtain the
necessary governmental approvals to conduct its operations as planned or
desired.
General Statements on Uranium.
Uranium occurs as uranium oxide in minerals such as pitchblende. According
to Saskatchewan Energy and Mines, most of the world's rich uranium deposits
occur in the Athabasca Basin of northern Saskatchewan, and are contained in
unconformities (breaks in the geological record) between Archean aged basement
rocks (very old rocks) and younger, Proterozoic aged sedimentary layers at
depths of less than 1,640 feet. Major faults near the unconformities are also
important features enhancing the chance for discovery.
Uranium is an unusual metal compared to base and precious metals in that
its value has really only been recognized in the past 60 years. Uranium ore is
the basic resource for the production of electrical energy through nuclear
power. Commercial nuclear power generation is a technology that has become
-6-
<PAGE>
mature and well-understood. The industry began to see increased commercial
demand for uranium in 1973, partially as a result of the OPEC-induced "energy
crisis" which caused a sharp rise in crude oil prices. In response, many
countries began development of nuclear power programs as an alternative to
fossil fuels for electricity generation. As of September, 1997, there were
approximately 439 commercial nuclear reactors operating in more than 30
countries, producing about 17% of the world's electricity.
The Nuclear Energy Institute stated at the 1997 Kyoto conference on global
warming that clean air objectives cannot be obtained without maintaining and
expanding the existing number of commercial nuclear generators in the world.
Clearly the key factor in determining demand for uranium is reactor fuel
requirements for meeting the world's growing energy demands. See, World Nuclear
Focus, Number 10, published by the Uranium Institute.

Mineral Properties.
The Company's properties are located in areas geologically favorable for
the occurrence of uranium deposits. Exploration in the western sector of the
Hocking Lake Property has discovered uraniferous boulders . The Henday Lake
Property is located within a few miles of four major deposits, two of which are
in production, with the other two planning to commence operations within the
next three years. The Billingsley Claim is a 3.1 by 2.5 mile area located at
Hump Lake, 14.3 miles northwest of Uranium City. Uranium City was the site of
extensive development and a uranium "boom" - including the renowned Eldorado
Mines - in the mid-1950's. Eldorado Mining and Refining Ltd. was the first
company to mine and refine uranium in North America. It supplied the uranium for
the atomic bombs produced by the United States in World War II.
Exploration has shown that the Athabasca Basin-type arkose and coarse
conglomerate Martin formation extends further into the area than was previously
thought, and underlies the Hump Lake Property. Trigg, Woolett Consulting Ltd.,
performed exploratory work on the property. A drill hole sample from the
property returned 1.42% uranium oxide over 22 feet in the Martin arkose. Trigg,
Woolett Consulting, Ltd. is not affiliated with the Company.
In December of 1998, the Company obtained an option to acquire six
properties totaling 74,756 acres in the Athabasca Basin under the Joint Venture
Agreement with PDC. A diamond drill intersection of 9.02 feet at one property
assayed 0.62% uranium oxide and most of the holes at this location intersected
significant alteration. Five of the properties are located between the Key Lake
mine to the south, a producing uranium mine, and the MacArthur River deposit to
the north, the richest known uranium deposit in the world. The MacArthur River
deposit has ore reserves of 483,000 tons grading 11.9% uranium oxide, and is
scheduled to commence production in December 1999. The sixth property is located
9.3 miles east of the Cigar Lake uranium deposit, which has ore reserves of more
than 350,000 tons with an average grade of 14% uranium oxide, and is expected to
be placed into production in 2001. See, "Saskatchewan Exploration and
Development Highlights 1999," Exploration and Development, 1999, Saskatchewan
Energy and Mines.
Markets.
Canada is the largest producer of uranium in the world. In 1998,
Saskatchewan's mines produced 10,924 tons of uranium, which Saskatchewan Energy
and Mines reported was 100% of Canadian and approximately 32.0% of total world
uranium output, valued at approximately $557 million Can. This production was
attained from three mines in northern Saskatchewan. By the year 2003, four new
mines are scheduled to be in production in this area for an estimated total
production of 23,828 tons of uranium annually, which will be approximately 55%
of projected world mine production.
-8-
<PAGE>
In 1997, mines supplied 35,810 tons of uranium and 439 uranium reactors
world wide required approximately 64,250 tons of uranium. In the past the
deficit has been made up from stockpiles, which are now largely depleted. Demand
continues to grow 1% to 2% annually. By the year 2020, the World Energy Council
estimates electricity demand will be at least 50% higher than now, and that
nuclear energy will be required to contribute a large portion of this demand. In
the late 1990's, it was generally considered that only Canada would be in a
position to compete with Australia (which has greater low-cost reserves) and
expand production to meet forecasted increases in the world uranium demand .
See, Nuclear Issues Briefing Paper # 3, 5/98, a publication of Uranium
Information Centre, Ltd.
Uranium oxide prices increased from U.S. $7.00 to $8.00 per pound in the
early 1970's to more than U.S. $40.00 per pound in the late 1970's and
thereafter decreased to the U.S. $8.00 to $10.00 range in the early 1990's. As
stockpiles became depleted, the price increased to over U.S. $16.00 per pound
from January 1995 to mid 1996, and then declined to approximately U.S. $10.00.
On December 6, 1999, the price of uranium was U.S. $11.44 per pound. See, The Ux
Consulting Company, LLC & The Uranium Exchange Company report on Industry Spot
Prices, December 6, 1999, as published in The UX Weekly.
Considering the current shortfall of supply of approximately 30,000 tons
per year, which can only be made up from new mine production, and to a minor
extent by recycling nuclear weapons and reprocessing used reactor fuel, it
appears that the price of uranium oxide will increase, which will encourage more
active exploration for the mineral. Estimates of prices in the range of U.S.
$20.00 to $40.00 per pound over the next two years have been made by A.R. Rule
Investments, a uranium advisory service; and estimates of prices in the low to
mid $20's (U.S.) per pound over the five-year period ending in 2001 have been
made by U.S. Energy Corporation. See, "Doug Casey: Uranium Stocks That Are Going
Higher," A.R. Rule Investments, 2/24/99; and U.S. Energy Corporation Investor
News, October 31, 1996.
Supply and Demand.
Over the past decade, the world has consumed more uranium than it has
produced from mines. The shortfall has been met from four sources: The large
inventories that were accumulated during the period of very high uranium prices
in the 1970's; from decommissioning nuclear weapons in the United States and
countries of the former Soviet Union; from reprocessing spent reactor fuel; and
from reprocessing old mine tailings.
-9-
<PAGE>
As reported by the Uranium Institute in London, England, world uranium fuel
consumption has increased from 25,401 tons in 1980 to 64,250 tons in 1997, with
production below reactor requirements since 1990. In 1997, worldwide production
of primary source (mined) uranium was 35,810 tons. This resulted in an
approximate 30,000 ton gap between supply and demand. The decreasing surplus
makes it imperative that new, economically competitive uranium be found and
developed for the future. Industry experts estimate that production from new
mines must be in place in the very near future or shortages will exist.
In 1998, Saskatchewan Energy and Mines reported that Canadian mining
operations produced approximately 32.0%, or 10,924 tons, of the world's uranium
output, making it the global leader, followed by Australia. Since the mid
1980's, a minimal amount of mine development has taken place, except for those
engaged in recovering ore from the very high grade deposits in northern
Saskatchewan. Substantial investments are now being made by uranium production
companies to increase production capacity enormously by early in the next
century. A number of exploration and development projects in northern
Saskatchewan are currently underway, that when in operation are projected by the
Uranium Institute in London, England to increase Canadian production to a total
of 23,828 tons of uranium annually. This amount is approximately 55% of
projected global mine production. But even with this increase in production,
there appears to be a shortfall in the uranium supply.
The price of uranium has fluctuated widely over the years. In the early
1950's, the price was approximately $4.00 (Can.) per pound. The price increased
to over U.S. $40.00 per pound in the late 1970's. The price then dropped down to
U.S. $8.00 per pound in the early 1990's. In December of 1999, the price was
over U.S. $11.00 per pound.
Exploration and Development.
Exploration for the discovery of uranium mineralization uses techniques
similar to that used in other types of mineral exploration. In northern
Saskatchewan, tracing of uranium rich boulders dropped by continental glaciers
and scintillometer surveys may locate deposits near the surface, however deeply
buried deposits require other more sophisticated geophysical and geochemical
methods to delineate favorable anomalous target areas. Diamond drilling then
tests priority zones located through the geophysical and geochemical testing.
Once a deposit is discovered, many drill holes are required to outline the
tonnage and grade for purposes of a feasibility study to a production decision.
Should production occur, the mineralized rock is crushed, ground and processed
to produce yellowcake (U3O8), which is then sent to a refinery for conversion to
UO3,UO2 or UF6, comprising the products used as fuel for nuclear power reactors.
-10-
<PAGE>
The Company has expended (through Pacific Amber's expenditures)
approximately U.S. $256,000 ($378,000 Can.) on exploration of its optioned PDC
Properties in 1999. The balance of $122,000 Canadian to be spent by December 31,
1999 has been extended to May 31, 2000. The Company has committed to spend
approximately $330,709 Canadian (U.S. $223,330) by December 31, 1999 on
exploring the Henday Lake, Hocking Lake and Hump Lake properties.
Financial Market Overview.
On December 6, 1999, the price of uranium was U.S. $11.44 per pound. See,
The Ux Consulting Company, LLC & The Uranium Exchange Company report on Industry
Spot Prices, December 6, 1999, as published in The UX Weekly. When estimates of
available secondary (non-commercial stockpile) supplies are combined with
estimates of future primary production, the market will likely stay reasonably
well balanced in the short term. However, as the secondary supply declines and
becomes a smaller factor in the marketplace and new and expanded production
comes on-line, the gap between these contrasting forces will be a critical
factor, resulting in a predicted rise in market prices in the next year or two.
Competition.
The process of mineral exploration and prospecting for uranium, and the
process of developing, operating and mining uranium for the purpose of
commercial production is a highly competitive and speculative business. In
seeking available opportunities, the Company will compete with a number of other
companies, including large multi-national companies, that may have more
experience and resources than the Company.
Within northern Saskatchewan, as well as globally, the Company competes
with both major uranium companies and independent producers for, among other
things, rights to develop available uranium properties, procurement of available
materials and resources and hiring qualified international and local personnel.
Regulation.
In order to commence exploration on any of its uranium properties or
claims, the Company must obtain an exploration permit, which can take up to 30
days to obtain. When the Company approaches the production stage of developing
its properties, the Company will be required to obtain both Canadian and
provincial governmental approval of the tailings process, mining methods and
environmental consequences of the mine production, which approval process can
take up to two years. The environmental impact study that must be obtained on
-11-
<PAGE>
each property in order to obtain governmental approval to mine on the properties
is a part of the overall operating costs of a mining company, and will not by
itself have an adverse effect on the Company.
Employees.
As of September 24, 1999, the Company had no full-time or part-time
employees.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Plan of Operation.
The Company is in the exploration stage and does not currently have any
income from operating activities. The Company intends to engage in the
prospecting, exploration, acquisition and development of properties in northern
Saskatchewan for the recovery of low-cost, high-grade uranium.
In early 1998, the Company entered into the Acquisition Agreement with the
Athabasca Uranium Syndicate, acquiring a l00% interest in two properties (the
Hocking Lake and Henday Lake Properties) located in the uranium-rich Athabasca
Basin of Saskatchewan and separately acquired an option to explore and develop a
third property (the Hump Lake Property) located close to Uranium City in the
Athabasca Basin. In December 1998, the Company was granted an option to acquire
an interest in six additional properties from PDC in the Athabasca Basin. Since
1968, the Athabasca Basin, a sandstone formation area covered by glacial
deposits of boulder till and sand, has hosted discoveries of some 18 uranium
deposits varying in grade from 0.12% to the exceptionally high grade 18.7%
uranium oxide. The area has not yet been fully explored and many areas
previously explored deserve reevaluation due to greater geological knowledge
acquired in the interim, and improved exploration techniques.
The Company has completed a first phase exploration program consisting of
an airborne deep penetrating state-of-the-art electromagnetic and cesium vapor
magnetometer survey at the Hocking Lake, Henday Lake and Hump Lake Properties,
in order to determine priority target areas for detailed ground geophysics ,
which is currently being conducted. A thorough study of all past work in the
area is being carried out and data compiled and correlated with the new surveys
as part of the first phase. Management of the Company estimates the cost of the
first phase exploration program for the Hocking Lake, Henday Lake and Hump Lake
Properties to be approximately U.S. $223,330. In October 1999 the Company issued
common stock for $300,000, and now believes that it has enough liquid assets to
fund the first phase of its exploration program over the next 12 months. The
Company expects to continue to incur operating losses and will rely on
additional equity sales to fund its activities beyond the next 12 months.
-12-
<PAGE>
The six PDC Properties optioned in December under the Joint Venture
Agreement with PDC have undergone extensive geophysical surveys,
lithogeochemical boulder sampling and diamond drilling within the past three
years and the Company has committed significant resources to further explore the
properties by second stage geophysics and diamond drilling. The Company has
completed an exploration program on the PDC Properties, which consisted of
further ground geophysics at a cost of U.S. $256,000 ($378,000 Can.) to
delineate target areas and diamond drilling of previously delineated and newly
defined target zones. The balance of $122,000 Can. that was to be spent by
December 31, 1999 has been extended to May 31, 2000 by letter from PDC.
The Company entered into an agreement with Pacific Amber in March of 1999,
which has been extended, under which the Company will grant Pacific Amber a 50%
interest of the Company's interest in the PDC Properties if Pacific Amber incurs
the balance of $122,000 Can. in expenditures by May 31, 2000. Pacific Amber has
expended the above mentioned U.S. $256,000.
In addition to current projects, the Company is engaged in the active
examination of other potentially significant properties for the purpose of
optioning or acquiring an interest in them in the future. The Company plans to
continue ground geophysical and geological surveys and diamond drilling on the
PDC Properties over the next 12 months. The Company will require additional
funds to support its operations over the next 12 months, and plans to raise
funds by offering its common stock in private placements. The Company has no
employees, and does not expect to have any for the next 12 months. All
operations will be conducted utilizing consultants.
Aerial geophysical surveys were conducted by the Geoterrex-Dighem division
of Conpagnie Generale de Geophysique ("CGG"). CGG is the largest geophysical
company in Europe, and one of the largest in the world. The Geoterrex-Dighem
division is the largest, most experienced airborne geophysical service group in
the world.
-13-
<PAGE>
The ground geophysical surveys are being conducted by Patterson Mining
Geophysics Ltd. The company has been in operation since 1980; and is operated by
Bill Patterson, a geophysicist, who has over 24 years of geophysical experience
throughout Canada and the United States. The company also includes Gord
Ostapovitch, a geophysicist, who has been active in the mineral exploration and
mining industry since 1975, and Bob Polischuk, a Geosoft/Auto CAD technologist.
The Company has not received the results of the aerial and ground
geophysical surveys conducted by Geoterrex-Dighem or Patterson Mining Geophysics
Ltd.
Year 2000 Issues.
The "Year 2000" issue is the result of the inability of hardware, software
and control systems to correctly identify two-digit references to specific
years, beginning with the Year 2000. The "Year 2000" problem is pervasive and
complex as virtually every computer operation will be affected in some way by
the rollover of the two-digit year value to "00". The failure of computer
systems to properly recognize date-sensitive information when the year changes
to 2000 could result in system failures or miscalculations causing disruptions
of the Company's operations.
The Company does not currently utilize computer hardware or software as an
integral part of performing its geophysical and geological surveys and diamond
drilling. To date, the Company has not experienced any Year 2000 problems in its
computer systems, and does not expect that these systems will be significantly
affected by the Year 2000. The Company will not be engaged in any significant
development work until after the Year 2000 has commenced. The Company does not
have any major suppliers, and therefore has not made any inquiries of third
parties' Year 2000 compliance issues.
Year 2000 problems could also occur in non information technology computer
systems. To date, however, the Company has not experienced any Year 2000
problems in its non information technology computer systems, and does not expect
that these systems will be significantly affected by the Year 2000.
Despite the Company's belief that it will not experience any significant
Year 2000 problems in its computer systems, the Company cannot guarantee that
its computer systems, the computer systems of its suppliers, or the computer
systems of other entities that deal with the Company, will not be affected by
Year 2000 problems in the future. The Company has no contingency plans in place
to deal with Year 2000 problems.
To date, management believes that the costs of Year 2000 compliance will
not be material and does not anticipate any material adverse effects on its
operations.

Forward-Looking Statements.
The following cautionary statements are made pursuant to the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 in order for the Company to avail
itself of the "safe harbor" provisions of that Act in the future. Note, however,
that the safe harbor for forward looking statements does not apply to

ITEM 3. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
The Company's properties are located in the Athabasca Basin of northern
Saskatchewan, Canada. The Athabasca Basin is one of the world's largest
producers of uranium, supplying over 30% of the world's production needs. Since
1968, 18 uranium deposits varying in grade from 1.2% to 18.7% uranium oxide have
been discovered in the Athabasca Basin.
The Company acquired two properties (the Hocking Lake Property and the
Henday Lake Property) located in the Athabasca Basin of northern Saskatchewan,
as part of the Acquisition Agreement with Athabasca. The Company's ownership of
the properties includes the rights to all minerals or reserves located on and
extracted from the properties.
The Hocking Lake Property is geographically located approximately 600 miles
north of the regional capital city of Regina. The closest city to the Hocking
Lake Property is Uranium City, located 95 miles west of the property. The region
has a dry, continental climate, with 30 inches of snowfall covering the ground
during five months of each year. Mean temperatures range from minus 30 degrees
Fahrenheit in the month of January to plus 75 degrees Fahrenheit in the month of
August. The Hocking Lake Property may be accessed by float or ski equipped
aircraft or helicopter from the village of Stoney Rapids located approximately 7
miles to the north.
-15-
<PAGE>
The Hocking Lake Property consists of five mining claims in two groups
totaling 20,203 hectares (49,924 acres) west of Black Lake, Saskatchewan. The
claims are located on N.T.S. sheets 74-O-1 and 74-P-4 of northern Saskatchewan.
The claims are designated S106048 through S106052 inclusive.
The Henday Lake Property is geographically located approximately 500 miles
north of the regional capital city of Regina. The closest city to the Henday
Lake Property is La Ronge located 200 miles south of the property. The region
has a dry, continental climate, with 30 inches of snowfall covering the ground
during five months of each year. Mean temperatures range from minus 30 degrees
Fahrenheit in the month of January to plus 75 degrees Fahrenheit in the month of
August. The Henday Lake Property may be accessed by gravel road from the town of
La Ronge or by float or ski equipped aircraft or helicopter from La Ronge or
Stoney Rapids.
The Henday Lake Property consists of three continuous mining claims
totaling 11,504 hectares (28,428 acres) in the Henday and Mallen Lake area,
N.T.S. 74-I-8 and 74-L-5, northern Saskatchewan. The claims are designated
S106053, S106054 and S106055.
There have been no previous mining operations on either the Henday Lake or
the Hocking Lake Properties. However, portions of properties have been explored
by prospecting, geophysics and possibly some diamond drilling by various
operators mainly during the 1970's and 1980's. Both properties have been sitting
idle since the late 1980's. These properties are largely undeveloped and do not
have an infrastructure of roads.
Both the Hocking Lake and the Henday Lake Properties are in the exploration
stage where the Company is in the process of locating potential mineral deposits
or reserves. The Company has not yet begun to extract uranium or other mineral
deposits from the properties and therefore has not engaged in the exploitation
of the mineral deposits or reserves from the Hocking Lake or the Henday Lake
Properties.
The area has not been fully explored and many areas previously explored
deserve reevaluation due to geological knowledge acquired over the years and
improved exploration techniques. The Company's ability to realize the carrying
value of its assets is dependent on the Company being able to extract and
transport uranium oxide deposits and finding appropriate markets for their sale.
The Hocking Lake and Henday Lake Properties are located in areas considered
to be geologically favorable for occurrence of uranium deposits having the
following criteria:
1. Located on the unconformity (the highest grade uranium deposits are
known to occur in unconformity type deposits between Archean basement
rocks and Proterozoic sedimentary sequences) between the Athabasca
-16-
<PAGE>
group and basement rocks, at depths less than 1,640 feet. The
unconformity occurs at the break in the geological record where the
younger sediments overlay the very old basement rocks.
2. Active exploration surrounding both properties.
3. Uraniferous boulders at the nose of a drumlin in the western sector of
the Hocking Lake Property .
4. The Henday Lake Property is located within a few miles of four major
deposits, two of which are in production and the other two of which
are scheduled for production in the next three years. Two additional
major deposits located further to the southwest in the Athabasca
Basin, MacArthur River and Cigar Lake, are expected to be in
production in December 1999 and 2001, respectively.
As described under Description of Business, the Company owns an option on
the Hump Lake Property from J.R. Billingsley, the registered owner. The Hump
Lake Property is geographically located approximately 650 miles northwest of the
regional capital city of Regina. The closest city to the Hump Lake Property is
Uranium City, located 12 miles southeast of the property. The region has a dry,
continental climate, with 30 inches of snowfall covering the ground during five
months of each year. Mean temperatures range from minus 30 degrees Fahrenheit in
the month of January to plus 75 degrees Fahrenheit in the month of August.
Exploratory radiometric prospecting, trenching and diamond drilling were
conducted on the Hump Lake Property in the late 1960's and 1970's, however, the
property is without known reserves and the proposed programs are exploratory in
nature. The Hump Lake Property is largely undeveloped and may be reached by
float or ski equipped aircraft from Uranium City.
On December 16, 1998, the Company executed a Joint Venture Agreement with
PDC under which the Company was granted an option to gain an ownership interest
in six uranium properties totaling 74,756 acres located in the Athabasca Basin.
Five of the properties are located between the Key Lake mine to the south, a
producing uranium mine, and the MacArthur River mine to the north, one of the
richest known uranium deposits in the world, which went into production December
1999. The sixth property is located 9.3 miles east of the equally high grade
Cigar Lake uranium deposit. Approximately $1,900,000 Can. has been spent on
these properties between 1995 and 1997 on geophysical surveys, lithogeochemical
boulder sampling and diamond drilling. All six properties are largely
undeveloped, with little or no infrastructure of roads.
1. The Crawford Property, located 15.5 miles northwest of the Key Lake
mine, has been explored by geophysics and reconnaissance and detailed
-17-
<PAGE>
lithogeochemical boulder sampling. Three sub-parallel electromagnetic conductors
were detected, and one conductor in the area of a large intense kaolin anomaly
was partially drilled. There is also enrichment of chlorite, boron, lead and
uranium in several sectors in proximity to the conductors. Two of the holes did
not adequately test the alteration zone as they did not reach basement. Two
holes were drilled on another conductor which indicated a second stronger
alteration zone. The most westerly hole is anomalous in lead, boron and uranium.
Kaolin is anomalous throughout the sandstone section. Due to the presence of the
favorable alteration minerals and anomalous values mentioned above, further
exploration work is warranted. The property may be reached by bush road (Fox
Lake Road) year-round from Provincial Highway 914 or by float or ski equipped
aircraft.
2. The Perpete Property is located 24.8 miles west-northwest of the Key
Lake mine. This property can be reached by winter road from Provincial Highway
914. Summer access is restricted to all terrain vehicles. The most convenient
access is by float or ski equipped aircraft from La Ronge, approximately 161.5
miles to the south.
The Perpete Property has been explored by geophysics, lithogeochemistry and
drilling. Previous work indicated moderate to strong alteration and erratic
enrichment of lead and uranium. A later electromagnetic survey indicates the
conductor coinciding with the east edge of the previous "conductive zone" is
east of the northern fence of drill holes. Thus, the conductor was not
adequately tested and further diamond drilling is required.
3. The Brown Property, located 12.4 miles northwest of the Key Lake mine,
adjoins the Crawford Property to the south. The property can be reached by 4x4
trucks by bush road (Fox Lake Road) from Provincial Highway 914. The most
convenient access is by float or ski equipped aircraft from La Ronge, which is
approximately 161 miles to the south.
Other than on the east-central edge of the Brown Property, very little work
has been carried out. A total of 68 holes were drilled in this area in two
locations. In one of the locations, a drill intersection of 9.02 feet assayed
0.62% uranium oxide and most of the holes in this area intersected significant
alteration.
A lithogeochemical reconnaissance survey was conducted over the property
subsequent to the drill program. This survey indicates the presence of two
strongly anomalous areas southwest of Colquhoun Lake to the northeast and
southwest of the previously drilled zone. Evidence of hydrothermal alteration is
characterized by chloritization and dravitization, and trace alteration
including uranium, lead, arsenic and yttrium.
The strongest and most consistent clay alteration trends are in the
southern portion of the property, between Brown Lake and MacArthur River Road.
Although it is possible that some of this alteration is derived from the
previously known area of uranium mineralization near Shift Lake, some of the
anomalous trends are situated a few miles away, both along and across the ice
-18-
<PAGE>
direction, suggesting that other sources may exist to the west and the southwest
of Shift Lake. The strongest and most consistent trace element enrichment
anomalous zone occurs in the northeast sector extending south - southwest of the
tip of the Colquhoun Lake. This zone is characterized by weak to moderate
chloritization and dravitization, but relatively strong and consistent
enrichment of uranium, arsenic, lead and yttrium.
Additional geophysical surveys carried out by the Company in 1999 with
limited diamond drilling have outlined a significant anomalous zone with
favorable geology, which the Company intends to further explore by diamond
drilling.
4. The Jasper Property, located 9.3 miles east of the Cigar Lake Uranium
Deposit, contains a lithogeochemical anomaly east of Woodstock Lake. This
anomaly contains strong illite and weak boron enrichment, with weak to moderate
lead and uranium anomalies. Additional lithogeochemical surveys are recommended.
The Jasper Property can be accessed by float or ski equipped aircraft.
5. The Morin Lake Property is located 18.6 miles west-northwest of the Key
Lake mine. The property can be reached by winter road from Provincial Highway
914. Summer access is restricted to all terrain vehicles. The most convenient
access is by float or ski equipped aircraft from La Ronge, which is
approximately 161.4 miles to the south. The property has uranium anomalies
occurring in several portions of the property. Detailed lithogeochemical
sampling is required to further define the anomalous areas.
6. The Marean Property is located 31.1 miles north-northeast of the Key
Lake mine. The property can be reached by winter road from Provincial Highway
914. Summer access is restricted to all terrain vehicles. The most convenient
access is by float or ski equipped aircraft from La Ronge, which is
approximately 173.9 miles to the south. The property has been explored by
geophysics and boulder sampling, which indicated weak conductors and boulder
anomalies. Subsequent lithogeochemical surveys show the presence of boron, weak
chloritization, and significant illite enrichment, indicating hydrothermal
alteration. Further geophysical and lithogeochemical surveys should be conducted
prior to drilling.
All six of the PDC Properties are without known reserves and the proposed
programs are exploratory in nature. Each of these properties exhibit encouraging
features such as geophysical conductors, faulting, and various types of
alteration indicative of hydrothermal systems favorable for the occurrence of
uranium mineralization. All of the properties merit further exploration
including geophysics, lithogeochemical surveys and diamond drilling.
Exploration Program.
The Company has conducted work on its wholly-owned properties, the Hocking
Lake and Henday Lake Properties, utilizing an exploration program consisting of
an airborne, deep penetrating, state-of-the-art electromagnetic and cesium vapor
magnetometer survey in order to determine priority target areas for detailed
ground geophysics and geology, prior to a diamond drilling program.
-19-
<PAGE>
The first phase of the Company's exploration program ("Phase I") consisted
of an airborne deep penetrating state-of-the-art electromagnetic and Cesium
vapor magnetometer survey in order to determine priority target areas for
detailed ground geophysics and geology, prior to a diamond drilling program. A
thorough study of all past work in the area will be carried out and data
compiled and correlated with the new surveys as well as limited ground
geophysics as part of Phase I. The Company expects to begin Phase I in the near
future. Management of the Company estimates the cost of the Phase I program to
be approximately U.S. $223,300.
The Company is not aware of any known reserves and its exploration program
is currently exploratory in nature. A Phase II program will consist of diamond
drilling, if warranted, to outline a mineral deposit. The Company plans to
finance these programs by offering its common stock through private placements.
The Company will be required to perform extensive geological and/or
geophysical surveys on all of its wholly-owned and optioned properties. The
Company will be subject to all risks inherent in performing surveys, exploring
and extracting uranium. Any of the risks could result in the Company being
liability for damages from loss of life and property. The Company is not fully
insured against these risks. Many of these risks are not insurable.
Management of the Company believes the risk-to-reward considerations
involved with the development of the properties are very positive and may lead
to substantial growth of the Company over the next several years. However, the
Company can provide no assurances that the properties or any of them will
produce uranium oxide in any specific amounts or that the Company will ever
realize a profit as a result of the Company's exploration, extraction,
development or production of the properties.
Exploration Report Summaries
Hocking Lake Property
The 5 claim Hocking Lake property has not been tested by deep penetrating
EM surveys. Depths to basement are estimated to be in the range 300 m to 600 m,
which is beyond the range of prior Input surveys. Much of this area should be
within the range of a low frequency GeoTem survey. The western claims straddle a
high magnetic block which probably represents non-prospective granitic basement.
The flanks of the high mag block and an interior low mag corridor should be
included in the GeoTem survey.
-20-
<PAGE>
Henday Lake Property
The Henday Lake property has seen two generations of relatively recent
airborne EM coverage. Almost all of the 3 claim property was included in a 1977
Input survey, which mapped some 17 km of probable basement conductors within the
current property outline. Some of these targets are thought to be untested or
poorly tested. A GeoTem survey in 1988 covered approximately 40% of the
property, on the west side. Drilling in and around the property has revealed
fairly rugged sub-Athabasca paleotopography with up to 100 m of relief at the
basement surface. It is feasible that some parts of the property which were not
covered by the 1988 GeoTem work, may have been too deep for the 1977 Input
survey. A GeoTem survey of the eastern 60% of the property is recommended, with
two flight line orientations to accommodate the arcuate and variable strike
directions which are characteristic of the Mudjatic Domain.
Tazin Property
The Tazin property is a single claim of 2000 ha under option to UPC.
Historical work has identified a mylonite fault zone with pitchblende
mineralization. No conductive strata have been mapped or intersected by drilling
in the area. Rather than GeoTem, a high resolution aeromagnetic survey, over a
larger area, would be more appropriate. Mapping, prospecting and sampling should
also be completed.
Morin Lake Property
The 1999 winter exploration program on the Morin Lake project (CBS 7758)
consisted of line cutting (20 km), a geophysical survey (17.4 km of TEM) and one
diamond drill hole of 350 m. From the 1999 drill core, 13 drill core samples
were collected for lithogeochemical analysis.
A fixed loop TEM survey comprising 17.4 km of profile coverage on six lines
was completed in the northeastern part of claim CBS 7758. Four basement
conductor trends were outlined, as well as a broad conductive zone probably
caused by flatlying graphite horizons extending north of the grid. Three of the
conductor axes trend WNW, paralleling a regional structure which is evident in
aeromagnetics. A segment of the dominant conductor horizon (conductor "R") was
selected as a target for drill hole ML-01.
This diamond drillhole intersected background Athabasca Group sandstone and
graphitic pelitic basement gneisses. Polished graphite is present on
slickensides and fracture planes over a twenty meter interval starting at 284 m.
No anomalous radioactivity was encountered.
-21-
<PAGE>
Lithogeochemical sampling results did confirm significant enrichment of
boron within the sandstone column, but failed to detect any anomalous clay
alteration or trace element enrichment indicative of proximity to a uranium
deposit.
Although no indications of an uranium deposit were detected in the drill
hole, the property still holds excellent potential. There are large gaps still
to be filled by detailed geophysical surveys and lithogeochemical boulder
sampling. As a first step, historical drill holes which have not yet been tested
and analyzed by lithogeochemical means, should be sampled during the upcoming
summer months. A lithogeochemical boulder sampling program should also be
completed. Additional geophysical work consisting of TEM surveys, should fully
evaluate the NE corner of CBS 7758. The TEM work would be a component of a
winter exploration program, along with diamond drilling to test existing and new
targets.
Perpete Lake Project
The 1999 winter exploration program on the Perpete Lake Project consisted
of a diamond drilling program. Two drillholes, PL-01 and PL-02, were completed
totaling 688 m. From the 1999 drill core, 32 drillcore samples were collected
for lithogeochemical analysis.
Both drillholes intersected weakly altered sandstone. Weakly anomalous clay
analysis values are confirmed by lithogeochemistry. The basement rocks in
drillhole PL-01 are predominantly pegmatites with lesser amounts of graphitic
pelite. Anomalous downhole radioactivity was encountered over two intervals;
281.4 to 283.5 m: 115 to 536 cps (average 293 cps) and 289.2 to 290.4 m: 118 to
263 cps (average 168 cps). Both intervals are associated with graphitic pelitic
gneiss intervals and the contact with pegmatite. The majority of the sandstone
section of hole PL-01 is anomalous in trace uranium content which ranges between
0.5 and 0.9 ppm uranium. This is equivalent to two to four times background. The
radioactive intersection in the basement is highly anomalous in uranium, nickel,
cobalt and arsenic, fully representing the paragenesis usually found in
unconformity uranium deposits.
The basement rocks of drillhole PL-02 consisted of pelitic gneiss,
calc-silicate, pegmatite and minor graphitic pelite. Strong ductile deformation
is evidenced by elongation of minerals and pulled apart fabrics. No anomalous
radioactivity was recorded in this drill hole. The lower-most sandstone bench
(bottom 20 m of Athabasca sandstone) carries 2 ppm U (lithogeochemical analysis)
which is quite strongly anomalous.
Although no commercial grade uranium mineralization was detected during
this program, the results to date are certainly encouraging and additional work
is warranted. As a first step, all historic holes which have not yet been tested
and analyzed by lithogeochemical means, should be sampled and tested during the
-22-
<PAGE>
upcoming summer. Additional geophysics, to test the northeasterly extension of
the known conductive trends, should be undertaken next winter. Diamond drilling
to drill test existing and new targets, will be a component of future programs.
Marean Lake Project
The 1999 winter exploration program on the Marean Lake project (CBS 7752)
consisted of line cutting (25.3 km) and a geophysical survey (25.3 km of TEM
coverage).
Despite being largely underlain by probable Archean granite basement, some
portions of the property have the potential to contain Aphebian metasediments.
Modelling, using aeromagnetic data, suggests that two areas, a broad corridor
through Marean Lake, and a strip along the northeastern edge of the property,
are probably underlain by Aphebian metasediments.
The TEM coverage detected 4 weak anomalies within the Marean Lake area.
Although weak, these responses are definitely derived from basement sources,
most likely graphitic horizons. These targets may have responded weakly due to
unexpected strike or dip directions, inappropriate loop locations, or greater
than expected depths to basement.
Although the results of the winter exploration program are not negative in
a technical sense, the practicability to retain a property with 600 to 700 m
sandstone cover must be evaluated in the context of the owners corporate
objectives.
Brown Lake Property
The 1999 winter exploration program on the Brown Lake property (CBS 7756
and CBS 7757) consisted of linecutting (32.9 km), geophysical surveys (46.25 km
of fixed loop TEM) and two diamond drill holes totaling 506.2 m. From the 1999
drill core, 16 samples were collected for lithogeochemical analysis.
A fixed loop TEM survey on two lines at Shift Lake outlined the previously
known conductor horizon, providing a dip direction (towards the NE), and located
outlying features to the SW (a possible fault zone) and to the NE (a possible
weakly conductive basement horizon). In the Wheeler River area, two
sub-parallel, N-S trending conductors, one of which is quite strongly
conductive, are traced almost continuously for two kilometers. Indications of a
third conductor horizon are noted to the east. As a follow-up to these results,
an additional TEM survey in the Lucky Lake area attempted to link the Shift Lake
area conductor with the Wheeler River conductor horizons. Poor ice conditions
precluded complete coverage of the proposed wrap-around feature NE of Lucky
Lake, forming a continuous 'S' shaped conductive trend, however, results to date
support the concept.
-23-
<PAGE>
TEM coverage in the Ford Lake area failed to detect basement conductors
associated with some probable faulting in sandstone which had been picked up by
prior VLF EM surveys.
The diamond drilling program consisted of one drillhole on the Shift Lake
grid (ddh SL- 01) and one drillhole on the Wheeler grid (WL-01).
Drillhole SL-01, oriented at -60(degree)/210(degree), was targeted at the
down-dip extension of uranium mineralization (1.42 m% U308) discovered at the
unconformity in Union Carbide drillhole 79-17. Drillhole SL-1 encountered
moderately to strongly bleached sandstone from 71 to 98 m and 106 to 153 m.
Friable sandstone extended over the interval of 122 to 136 m and narrow
intervals of shearing occur at 158 and 180 m. The basement rocks consist of
graphitic pelitic gneiss with intervals of calc-silicate and silicate faces iron
formation overlying interpreted granite gneiss. Two significant brachia-gouge
zones were noted within the pelitic gneiss.
Drillhole WL-1 intersected intervals of weakly to moderately bleached
sandstone overlying pelitic basement. The drillhole was abandoned 7.4 metres
below the unconformity as the drill rods became stuck and an attempt to reduce
from NQ to BQ was not successful.
Lithogeochemical sampling did not result in the detection of any
significant alteration zones, or trace element enrichment zones which might
indicate proximity to a uranium deposit. These drillholes did not explain the
consistent anomalous boulder trend of dravite, uranium and arsenic enrichment
down ice from Lucky and Colquhoun Lake.
If proven, the occurrence of an `S' shaped conductive trend is considered
highly favorable. The multiple conductor horizons in a 200 to 400 meter-wide
package of graphitic basement stratigraphy in the central segment of the 'S',
are reminiscent of the Key Lake setting. Here, a lower (basal) Aphebian
conductive trend hosts sporadic, uneconomic uranium mineralization, while the
Key Lake ore bodies are hosted by a nearby, sub-parallel and dominant graphitic
conductor horizon which is stratigraphically higher. At Key Lake and Lucky Lake,
the thick, graphitic Aphebian stratigraphy lies on the flanks of an Archean
granitic dome.
Additional exploration work is recommended on the Brown Lake property. Work
to be carried out during the upcoming summer season should consist of
lithogeochemical sampling of historical drill holes and resistivity surveys in
the Shift Lake area. A longer term objective is to drill the most prospective
segments of the Lucky Lake conductor system, probably during a winter program.
Reserves.
The Company's claims have no proven reserves as of December 20, 1999.

ITEM 6. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation and Other Benefits of Executive Officers.
The Company's President and other executive officers did not receive any
compensation or other benefits between the inception of the Company (April 3,
1998) and April 30, 1999, its last fiscal year end.
Stock Option Plan.
The Board of Directors of the Company has adopted a stock option plan
effective August 31, 1999, subject to shareholder approval by August 31, 2000.
The stock option plan was adopted in order to attract and retain the best
available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide
additional incentive to the Company's employees and to promote the success of
the Company's business. The Company has reserved 1,200,000 shares of its Common
Stock under the stock option plan. As of the date hereof, no options have been
granted under the stock option plan.
Compensation of Directors.

with respect to termination of the directors in the event of change of control
of the Company.
ITEM 7. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
James R. Billingsley, a director of the Company, is the registered owner of
the entire Billingsley Claim, and therefor has an interest in the Company's
option to acquire rights to explore and develop the Billingsley Claim. In
addition, Mr. Billingsley is a Director of Pacific Amber Resources Ltd., and
therefore has an interest in the Company's Property Option Agreement with
Pacific Amber Resources Ltd. with respect to the PDC Properties. The Board of
Directors of the Company is aware of Mr. Billingsley's interests in the
Billingsley Claim and in Pacific Amber Resources Ltd., and both agreements
involving the Company and Mr. Billingsley's interests have been handled as
arms-length transactions.
Other than the transactions stated above, none of the directors or
executive officers of the Company, nor any person who owned of record or was
known to own beneficially more than 5% of the Company's outstanding shares of
its Common Stock, nor any associate or affiliate of such persons or companies,
has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction that has
occurred since its inception on April 3, 1998, or in any proposed transaction,
which has materially affected or will affect the Company.

<PAGE>
ITEM 8. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The Company has two classes of equity securities, namely, its $0.001 par
value common stock ("Common Stock") and its $0.001 par value preferred stock
("Preferred Stock"). As of December 20, 1999, the Company has authorized
40,000,000 shares of its Common Stock, of which 6,927,500 are issued and
outstanding. The holders of the Company's Common Stock have and possess all
rights as shareholders of a corporation, except as may be limited by the
preferences, privileges and voting powers, and the restrictions and limitations
of the Company's Preferred Stock. As of December 20, 1999, the Company has
authorized 10,000,000 shares of its Preferred Stock, but no shares of its
Preferred Stock are issued or outstanding.
Common Stock.
Each holder of record of shares of the Company's Common Stock is entitled
to one vote for each share held on all matters properly submitted to the
shareholders for their vote. Cumulative voting in the election of directors is
not authorized by the Articles of Incorporation.
Holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock are entitled to those
dividends declared by the Board of Directors out of legally available funds,
and, in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of
the Company, holders are entitled to receive ratably the net assets of the
Company available to the shareholders. Holders of outstanding Common Stock have
no preemptive, conversion or redemption rights. All of the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock are, and all unissued shares of Common Stock,
when offered and sold will be, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable. To the extent that additional shares of Common Stock of the
Company may be issued in the future, the relative interests of the then existing
shareholders may be diluted.
Preferred Stock.
The Company's Board of Directors is authorized to issue from time to time.
without shareholder authorization, in one or more designated series, any or all
of the authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock with such dividend,
redemption, conversion and exchange provisions as may be provided by the Board
of Directors with regard to such particular series. Any series of Preferred
Stock may possess voting, dividend, liquidation and redemption rights superior
to those of the Common Stock. The rights of the holders of Common Stock will be
subject to and may be adversely affected by the rights of the holders of any
Preferred Stock that may be issued in the future. Issuance of a new series of
Preferred Stock, or providing desirable flexibility in connection with possible
-29-
<PAGE>
acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could make it more difficult for a
third party to acquire, or discourage a third party from acquiring the
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company and make removal of the Board
of Directors more difficult. No shares of Preferred Stock are currently issued
and outstanding, and the Company has no present plans to issue any Shares of
Preferred Stock.
Anti-Takeover Provisions.
The Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws (the "Incorporation
Documents") contain provisions that may make it more difficult for a third party
to acquire. or may discourage acquisition bids for, the Company. The Board of
Directors of the Company is authorized, without action of its shareholders, to
issue authorized but unissued Common Stock and Preferred Stock. The existence of
undesignated Preferred Stock and authorized but unissued Common Stock enables
the Company to discourage or to make it more difficult to obtain control of the
Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise.
Glossary of Terms.
Alteration Zone A change in the mineral composition of the rock brought about by
physical or chemical means especially by the action of hydrothermal solutions.
Anomaly: A deviation from uniformity or regularity in geophysical or geochemical
quantities.
Diamond Drilling: A variety of rotary drilling in which diamond bits are used as
the rock cutting tool. It is a common method of prospecting for mineral deposits
especially in development work where core samples are desired.
Drumlin: A low, smoothly rounded, elongated and oval hill, mound or ridge of
compact glacial till, built under the margin of the ice and shaped by its flow;
its longer axis is parallel to the direction of the movement of the ice. It
usually has a blunt nose pointing in the direction from which the ice approached
and a gentler slope tapering in the other direction.
Electromagnetic and Cesium Vapor Magnetometer Survey: An Electromagnetic Survey
uses instruments to measure conductivity. Certain minerals are highly conductive
such as graphite or sulfides. In the Athabasca area graphite is commonly
associated with the occurrence of uranium deposits.
-30-
<PAGE>
The Cesium Vapor Magnetometer Survey is a sophisticated instrument that
measures magnetic intensities of sub-surface rocks which is an aid in
interpretation of sub-surface geological structure.
A combination of these surveys aids in the search for uranium deposits.
Fault: A zone of rock fracture along which there has been displacement.
Glacial Action: All processes due to the agency of glacier ice, such as erosion,
transportation, and deposition.
Hydrothermal Alteration: Alteration of rocks or minerals by the reaction of such
surface heated waters of magmatic origin.
Kaolin Anomaly; Illite Enrichment; Chloritization and Dravitization: These are
alteration products derived from the decomposition of other rock forming
minerals such as mica, and may be indicative of uranium or other mineralization
in proximity.
Lithogeochemical Boulder Sampling: A method of collecting boulder chips on a
grid basis, then laboratory analysis for detection of alteration products. The
various alteration products are plotted on maps to indicate the presence of
anomalous zones.
N.T.S. Sheets: These refer to map quadrangles in Northern Saskatchewan under the
National Topographic System. Mineral claims are plotted on these sheets by the
Energy and Mines Department of Saskatchewan so that mineral claim locations are
easily determined.
Scintillometer Surveys: A scintillometer is a sophisticated geiger counter,
which measures radioactivity; however, it can discriminate between uranium,
thorium and potassium.
Unconformity: A substantial break or gap in the geologic record where a rock
unit is overlain by another that is not next in stratigraphic succession, such
as an interruption in the continuity of a depositional sequence of sedimentary
rocks, or a break between eroded igneous rocks and younger sedimentary strata.
Yttrium: An element whose symbol is YT and has an atomic weight of 88.9, and is
a decay element derived from uraniferous minerals.

ITEM 5. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Company's Articles of Incorporation and the Colorado Business
Corporation Act provide that the Company will indemnify, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any person, and the estate and personal representative of any
such person, against all liability and expense (including attorneys' fees)
incurred by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of
the Company or, while serving at the request of the Company as a director,
-34-
<PAGE>
officer, partner, trustee, employee, fiduciary, or agent of, or in any similar
managerial or fiduciary position of, another domestic or foreign corporation or
other individual or entity or of an employee benefit plan. Further, the Articles
of Incorporation provide that the Company also shall indemnify any person who is
serving or has served the Company as director, officer, employee, fiduciary, or
agent, and that person's estate and personal representative, to the extent and
in the manner provided in any bylaw, resolution of the shareholders or
directors, contract or otherwise, so long as such provision is legally
permissible.
The Company's Articles of Incorporation also provide that a director of the
Company shall not be personally liable to the Company or its shareholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company or
to its shareholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which
involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for acts
specified under Section 7-108-403 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act or
any amended or successor provision thereof, or (iv) for any transaction from
which the director derived an improper personal benefit. If the Colorado
Business Corporation Act is amended after the provisions in the Company's
Articles of Incorporation are adopted to authorize corporate action further
eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the Articles
of Incorporation provide that the liability of a director of the Company will be
eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Colorado Business
Corporation Act, as so amended.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act may
be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised
that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS
TO THE DIRECTORS
OF URANIUM POWER CORPORATION
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Uranium Power Corporation (an
exploration stage company) as at April 30, 1999 and 1998 and the related
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and statements of cash flows for
the years ended April 30, 1999, the period April 3, 1998 (date of incorporation)
to April 30, 1998 and the cumulative amounts during exploration stage April 3,
1998 to April 30, 1999. 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 audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit
to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. 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.
In our opinion, these financial statements presents fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Company as at April 30, 1999 and 1998
and the results of its operations and the cash flows for the year ended April
30, 1999, the period April 3, 1998 (date of incorporation) to April 30, 1998 and
the cumulative amounts during exploration stage April 3, 1998 to April 30, 1999
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States.

Notes to Financial Statements
Year Ended April 30
(U.S. Dollars)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
The Company was incorporated on April 3, 1998 under the laws of the State
of Colorado. The principal business activity is the exploration and
development of natural resource properties principally in Canada.
By agreement dated April 13, 1998 the Company acquired all the assets of
Athabasca Uranium Syndicate (a British Columbia, Canada syndicate) which
consisted primarily of a parcel of property in Northern Saskatchewan,
Canada (note 3(a)) and a bank account. Consideration given to the owners of
the syndicate was 6,000,000 common shares of the Company at a par value of
$0.001 each and a stated amount of $97,834, being the cost of the assets
acquired.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Exploration stage expenditures
The Company expenses all expenditures for exploration of resource
properties as they are incurred where the properties do not have
proven mineral reserves.
(b) Foreign currency translation
The Company's operations and activities are conducted principally in
Canada, hence the Canadian dollar is the functional currency which is
translated into U.S. dollars for reporting purposes as follows:
(i) Monetary assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect
as at the balance sheet date;
(ii) Non-monetary assets and liabilities at the exchange rates
prevailing at the time of the acquisition of the assets or
assumption of the liabilities; and,
(iii)Revenues and expenditures at the average rate of exchange for
the year.
Gains and losses arising from this translation of foreign currency are
not significant and are included in the determination of net loss.
(c) Comprehensive income (loss)
The Company has no other comprehensive income or loss. Accordingly,
comprehensive loss is the same as net loss.
(d) Loss per share
Loss per share calculations are based on the weighted average number
of shares outstanding during the period.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(e) Financial instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and accounts
payable and accrued liabilities. It is management's opinion that the
Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency, or credit
risks arising from these financial instruments. The fair value of
these financial instruments approximates their carrying value.
