CHIEF CONSOLIDATED MINING COMPANY
AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
included herein have been prepared by the Company, without
audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and
disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations, although the Company believes the
following disclosures are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Results of operations for interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These
condensed financial statements and notes thereto should be
read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements
and notes thereto, included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for
the year ended December 31, 1995.
Registrants condensed consolidated financial statements
reflect the acquisition of South Standard Mining Company
effective June 28, 1996 which was accounted for under the
pooling of interests method of accounting. Accordingly the
financial statements for both entities have been presented
consolidated for all periods presented to reflect the
acquisition
Item 2. Management's Discussion And Analysis Or Plan Of
Operation.
(a) PLAN OF OPERATION.
Registrant hereby incorporates by reference "Item 6.
Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation -
(a) Plan of Operation." and "Item 1.-Description of
Business." contained in registrant's Annual Report dated
March 28, 1996 on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1995 ("1995 Form 10-KSB").
The operating Agreement, as described in registrant's
1995 Form 10-KSB at Items "1" and "6", between registrant
and subsidiary companies of Korea Zinc, Ltd. and Akiko Gold
Resources Ltd. was signed and became effective as of July
17, 1996.
Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, Tintic Utah Metals
LLC ("LLC") was formed on July 29, 1996 as the operating
company of the joint venture. Registrant anticipates that
by August 31, 1996, $2 million will be contributed to LLC by
the subsidiary of Korea Zinc, Ltd. on account of that joint
venture member's capital contribution to the LLC. Those
funds will be used to reimburse registrant for registrant's
advances to the joint venture and for development and
drilling costs under budgets approved by the management
committee of the LLC. After the aforesaid $2 million
contribution to the LLC has been paid, there will remain
another $4 million of contributions to be paid into the LLC
in installments by the other two members of the LLC pursuant
to approved budgets, but no later than August 31, 1998.
Subject to the conditions contained in the Operating
Agreement, registrant has deeded in the name of the LLC
approximately 9,000 acres of its East Tintic properties,
including the Burgin Mine, to the LLC. The deed will be
held in escrow until the two other members of the LLC
contribute to the LLC the full $6 million as required in the
Operating Agreement.
Registrant hereby incorporates by reference "Item 5.
Other Events. ", contained in registrant's Current Report
Form 8-K dated July 12, 1996 reporting the consummation on
June 29, 1996 of the merger of South Standard Mining Company
("South Standard") with and into registrant's subsidiary,
Chief Gold Mines, Inc. Under the terms of the Operating
Agreement as signed, the LLC holds an option to require
registrant to cause the property so acquired by registrant's
subsidiary as a result of the merger to be contributed to
the LLC. The option is exercisable beginning eighteen
months after the Operating Agreement was signed, and if the
option is exercised, the LLC will reimburse registrant for
all net costs incurred by registrant in the merger and in
maintaining and developing the property after the merger.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Registrant had no revenues from mining operations during the
year 1995 or during the first six months of 1996.
Registrant had income from sales of surface real estate of $
600 during the first six months of 1996 and $2,000 during
the first six months of 1995.
Registrant's loss from operations for the six months ended
June 30, 1996, as compared to Registrant's loss from
operations for the six months ended June 30, 1995 increased
in the amount of $ 316,539. Registrant's loss from
operations for the three months ended June 30, 1996, as
compared to registrants loss from operations for the three
months ended June 30, 1995 increased in the amount of $
150,229. These increases in losses both resulted from the
acceleration of registrant's rehabilitation and development
activities on its Utah East Tintic and Main Tintic
operational area properties, including underground drilling
programs during the first half of 1996 and costs and
additional operating loss incurred in connection with the
consolidation of financial statements to reflect the
acquisition of South Standard Mining Company by a wholly
owned subsidiary of registrant in a merger effective June
28, 1996.
