Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 1998 and 1997
NOTE 1 - CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at
December 31, 1998 and for all periods presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with general accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that
these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's March 31,
1998 audited consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for
the periods ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 are not necessarily indicative of
the operating results for the full year.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
Plan of Operation.
- ------------------
The Company's plan of operation for the next 12 months is
to perform exploration on the La Verde property, located in the State of
Sinaloa, Mexico, as discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB
for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1998, which was filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on July 9, 1998, and which is incorporated herein by
reference.
During the next 12 months, subject to the receipt of sufficient
funding, the Company intends to expend approximately $3,000,000 to conduct
exploration and development of the La Verde properties and, depending on the
results of such exploration and the Company's ability to finance such
operations, to develop the mineral reserves located thereon. Depending on the
availability of funding, the Company also intends to explore for potential
minable reserves on a limited number of other properties located near the La
Verde property.
If sufficient funding is received, management expects that the
Company's exploration activities will be comprised of drifting to delineate
ore reserves, further exploration of other identified targets which would
include induced polarization, drilling and such other exploration activities
as are needed to define the known resource. The La Verde property has been
actively mined for the past 12 years and is currently processing approximately
200 tons of ore per day. The exploration that the Company intends to conduct
will be aimed at determining the size and location of the multiple ore bodies
on the La Verde property.
Because of its presently limited cash on hand, the Company expects
that its proposed operations for the next 12 months will have to be funded
through private placements of "unregistered" and "restricted" shares of its
common stock; alternatively, the Company may seek a joint venture partner to
pay for exploration expenses. There can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to obtain sufficient funding to conduct its proposed activities or
that, if such funding is obtained, its exploration activities will reveal
mineral deposits in sufficient amounts to warrant further mining. See the
heading "Liquidity" of this caption.
Results of Operations.
- ----------------------
During the quarterly period ended December 31, 1998, the Company
received no revenues and incurred expenses totaling $710,786. Net loss during
the period was $710,786, equaling $0.02 per share.
Liquidity.
- ----------
As of December 31, 1998, the Company had total assets of
$3,586,101, of which $7,009 consisted of cash and cash equivalents. The
Company's proposed exploration activities during the next 12 months will
require the expenditure of an estimated $3,000,000. The Purchase Agreement
between the Company and Minera Humaya S.A. de C.V, which owns the La Verde
Property, provides for the Company to receive approximately 50% of the profits
produced by the La Verde property. However, no assurance can be given that
the Company's share of the La Verde property profits, if any, will be
sufficient to fund its planned operations during the next 12 months. In such
an event, management intends to raise such additional funding as is necessary
through the private placement of "unregistered" and "restricted" shares of its
common stock. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to successfully raise such funding.
Year 2000.
- ----------
The Company's proposed mining exploration activities are not dependent on
computers that may subject to Year 2000 problems. The Company is presently
seeking additional funding to continue with its proposed exploration
activities and is not currently conducting any material operations, pending
receipt of such funding. At such time as the Company recommences its mining
exploration activities, management has determined that Year 2000 issues will
not materially affect them, because these activities will be limited to
drilling, induced polarization and other activities that are not dependent on
computers that may be subject to Year 2000 issues.
The Company can give no assurance that third parties with whom it does
business (e.g., banks and utilities) will ensure Year 2000 compliance in a
timely manner or that, if they do not, their computer systems will not have an
adverse effect on the Company. However, the Company does not believe that
Year 2000 compliance issues of such third parties will result in a material
adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
For the foregoing reasons, the Company has determined that the potential
consequences of the Year 2000 would not have a present material effect on its
business, results of operations or financial condition.
