CANYON RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
During interim periods, Canyon Resources follows the accounting
policies set forth in its Annual Report to Stockholders and its Report
on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Users
of financial information produced for interim periods are encouraged
to refer to the footnotes contained in the Annual Report to
Stockholders when reviewing interim financial results and to the
following additional information.
The Company uses derivative commodity instruments (gold loans, gold
forward contracts, and put options) to manage market risks associated
with fluctuating gold prices. Gold loans are monetized at the original
proceeds amount and are recognized into revenue at the time of
physical delivery of the metal. Costs or premiums, if any, and gains
or losses related to changes in values of other derivative commodity
instruments are included in revenues when the underlying production is
delivered to meet the commitment, or at the originally designated
maturity dates in the event of early settlement of such instruments.
Cash flow resulting from hedge contracts is included in net cash
provided by operating activities on the statements of cash flows.
In February, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, (SFAS128),
Earnings per Share. SFAS128's objective is to simplify the computation
of earnings per share (EPS) and to make the U.S. standard more
compatible with that of other countries and the International
Accounting Standards Committee. SFAS128 superceeds APB Opinion 15,
replacing the presentation of "primary" and "fully diluted" EPS with
"basic" and "diluted" EPS. SFAS128 will become effective for the
Company's year ended December 31, 1997, and all prior period EPS
calculations will be restated to conform with the new standard. Upon
adoption, the Company does not anticipate a material impact on its
EPS.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial
statements contain all material adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial
position, the results of operations, and the cash flows of Canyon
Resources and its consolidated subsidiaries for interim periods.
Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
2. INTERIM RESULTS:
The foregoing interim results are not necessarily indicative of the
results of operations for the full year ending December 31, 1997, as
the Briggs Mine attained commercial production levels during March,
1997.

<PAGE> 8
3. USE OF ESTIMATES:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
4. RESTRICTED CASH:
Restricted cash consisted of the following:

(a) In connection with the issuance of certain bonds for the
performance of reclamation obligations at the Kendall and
Briggs Mines, a bank Letter of Credit has been provided in
favor of the Surety as partial collateral for such bond
obligations. The Letter of Credit is fully collateralized
with cash and will expire no earlier than December 31, 1997.
At the bank's option, the Letter of Credit may be renewed for
successive one-year periods.
(b) Loan proceeds are restricted solely for the development of
the Briggs Mine.
(c) The Briggs Mine loan facility requires all proceeds from gold
sales to be held in trust and disbursed from the collected
credit balance in certain orders of priority.
(d) As a condition precedent to securing the Briggs loan
facility, the Company transferred $2.0 million to an escrow
account to be held in reserve against construction cost
overruns at the Briggs Mine. These funds were utilized in
1996 due to higher than anticipated construction costs and
working capital needs.

(a) On December 6, 1995, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary,
CR Briggs Corporation, secured a $34.0 million
loan facility to finance the capital require ments of mine
construction and working capital for its Briggs Mine in
California. Drawings on the facility include $25.0 million
principal in the form of a gold loan and $9.0 million
principal as dollar loans. The gold loan portion was
monetized at $388.05 per ounce, or 64,425 ounces. Weighted
average interest rates on the drawings during the three
months ended June 30, 1997 were (i) 3.2% on the $25.0 million
gold loan and (ii) 10.0% on the $9.0 million cash loans. For
the comparable period in 1996, weighted average interest
rates on the gold loan and dollar loans were 3.7% and 9.7%,
respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 1997,
weighted average interest rates on the gold loan and dollar
loans were (i) 3.4% and 10.0%, respectively. For the
comparable period in 1996, weighted average interest rates
were 4.6% and 9.7%, respectively. Interest payments of
$422,900 and $346,400 were made during the three months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. For the six month
period interest payments of $767,400 and $732,300 were made
during 1997 and 1996, respectively. The Company repaid
$725,000 principal in June, 1997 as per the facility's
amortization schedule.

CANYON RESOURCES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS, CONTINUED
(UNAUDITED)
6. NOTES PAYABLE, CONTINUED:
The Company was not in compliance with certain conditions of
the loan agreement as of June 30, 1997, relating to (i)
achieving project completion (as defined) (ii) certain
coverage ratios (as defined) and (iii) operating cost
performance (as defined). The lenders have agreed to waive
compliance for achieving project completion to June 1, 1998
and to waive compliance with the other conditions through
September 30, 1997.
(b) In August 1994, the Company exercised purchase options on its
leased mining equipment at the Kendall Mine for $899,900.
Caterpillar Financial Services Corporation subsequently
agreed to finance the purchase price over a three-year period
at a fixed rate of 9.5%. During the three months ended June
30, 1997, the Company paid $2,900 of interest and reduced the
principal balance by $58,800. For the comparable period of
1996, the Company paid $7,700 of interest and reduced the
principal balance by $54,000. For the six month period ended
June 30, 1997, the Company paid $7,100 of interest and
reduced the principal balance by $116,200. For the comparable
period of 1996, the Company paid $20,000 of interest and
reduced the principal balance by $123,900.
7. SALE OF AN EXPLORATION PROPERTY:
The Company executed an agreement during the second quarter of 1997 to
sell an exploration property for $3.0 million, payable over a
twenty-four month period and, until the purchase price is paid in
full, an aggregate work commitment of $1,250,000. At any time, the
buyer, upon proper notice, may terminate its then remaining
obligations. Due to the contingent nature of the transaction, gain
will be recognized only upon receipt of cash over the twenty-four
month period. Accordingly, the Company recorded a gain of $150,000
during the second quarter of 1997.
8. INCOME TAXES:
No current provision for income taxes was recorded as the Company does
not expect taxable income for the year. No deferred tax benefit was
recorded as the Company applies a full valuation allowance to its
gross deferred tax assets, except to the extent of offsetting
reversals of expected deferred tax liabilities.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE
PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995.
The matters discussed in this report on Form 10-Q, when not historical
matters, are forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
projected results. Such factors include, among others, the speculative nature
of mineral exploration, commodity prices, production and reserve estimates,
environmental and government regulations, availability of financing, force
majeure events, and other risk factors as described from time to time in the
Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Many of these
factors are beyond the Company's ability to control or predict. The Company
disclaims any intent or obligation to update its forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of receiving new information, the occurrence of future
events, or otherwise.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company recorded net income of $605,600, or $0.02 per share, on
revenues of $9,668,800 during the second quarter of 1997 and net income of
$294,900, or $0.01 per share, on revenues of $13,108,400 for the first half of
1997. This compares to a net loss of $999,700, or $0.03 per share, on revenues
of $1,303,100 during the second quarter of 1996, and a net loss of $1,827,900,
or $0.06 per share on revenues of $2,447,200 during the first six months of
1996.
For the three months ended June 30, 1997, the Company sold 20,262
ounces of gold and 6,500 ounces of silver from its Briggs mine at an average
realized price of $409 per equivalent gold ounce. For the comparable period of
1996, the Company sold 1,069 ounces of gold and 808 ounces of silver from its
Kendall Mine, which was in its final months of productive life. For the first
half of 1997, 25,862 ounces of gold and 6,500 ounces of silver (all from the
Briggs Mine) were sold at an average realized price of $408 per equivalent gold
ounce. In addition, proceeds realized from the sale of 8,150 ounces of gold
during the first two months of 1997 were credited against capitalized
development costs at the Briggs Mine. For the comparable period in 1996, 2,069
ounces of gold and 1,408 ounces of silver (all from the Kendall Mine) were sold
at an average realized price of $387 per equivalent gold ounce. The New York
Commodity Exchange (COMEX) gold price averaged $343 and $348 per ounce,
respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997. For the
comparable periods of 1996, the COMEX gold price averaged $395 and $390 per
ounce. Revenue from the sales of industrial minerals products increased 55% and
57%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared
to the prior year, reflecting continued growth in diatomite sales and the
effect of pumice/volcanic glass sales from a processing facility acquired in
mid-1996. Sales of industrial mineral products accounted for 14% and 20% of the
Company's revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997,
respectively.
Total cash costs (as computed under The Gold Institute's Production
Cost Standard) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, were $260 per
ounce and $256 per ounce,
11
<PAGE> 12
respectively. The prior period unit costs are not comparable due to the
nominal sales from the Kendall Mine.
Depreciation depletion and amortization increased in the current
periods due to the attainment of commercial production levels at the Briggs
Mine.
Interest income was lower in the current periods due to lower cash
balances. Interest expense was not materially different for the three months
ended June 30, 1997, and was lower for the current six month period as interest
associated with the Briggs loan was capitalized during the first two months of
the year.
The Company executed an agreement during the second quarter of 1997 to
sell an exploration property for $3.0 million, payable over a twenty-four month
period and, until the purchase price is paid in full, an aggregate work
commitment of $1,250,000. At any time, the buyer, upon proper notice, may
terminate its then remaining obligations. Due to the contingent nature of the
transaction, gain will be recognized only upon receipt of cash over the
twenty-four month period. Accordingly, the Company recorded a gain of $150,000
during the second quarter of 1997.
LIQUIDITY & CAPITAL RESOURCES
CASH FLOW
Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended
June 30, 1997, was $295,900 as compared to $2,558,500 used in operating
activities for the same period in 1996. The current year positive operating
cash flow was due to commercial production levels being attained at the Briggs
Mine. Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 1997, was $9,927,300.
The Company spent $6,133,200, net, on capital programs ending June 30,
1997, principally relating to final working capital requirements at the Briggs
Mine, improvements to the industrial minerals business, drilling within the
Panamint Range near the Briggs Mine, and funding the Company's share of costs
on the McDonald Project.
The Company borrowed the final $4.0 million tranche under its loan
facility during March, 1997, to provide funding for a leach pad expansion phase
scheduled for completion in the third quarter of 1997. Principal payments of
$725,000 were made during the second quarter of 1997 as per the facility's
