Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared
by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary
to present fairly the financial position, results of operations
and cash flows as of the dates and for the period presented herein
have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and
regulations. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated
financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
December 31, 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. The results of
operations for the three months and nine ending September 30,
1997, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that
may result for the year ending December 31, 1997. The accounting
policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to the
Company's financial statements in its December 31, 1996 Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB.

Item 2. Management's Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
Results of Operations
Three Months ended 9/30/97 compared to Three Months ended 9/30/96 Nine
Months ended 9/30/97 compared to Nine Months ended 9/30/96
During each of these periods the mining operations were shut down,
there were no revenues during either period.
Management is funding the necessary expenses to maintain the Company in
a current status until an acquisition can be identified.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 1997, the Company had total assets of $0, total
liabilities of $382,721 and total stockholders deficit of ($382,721) compared
with total assets of $154, total liabilities of $336,121 and total stockholders
deficit of $(335,967) at March 31,1996. There has been no significant change in
account balances due to the shut down of operations during these periods. There
were also no new borrowings. Management is funding all expenditures at the
present time. Management is uncertain of when mining operations will continue
and can give no assurances that operations will continue during the current
fiscal year. On June 6, 1997 the Company issued 8,900,000 restricted shares to
General Enterprises and Trading Company (Isle of Man) Ltd. for the promise to
loan the Company $100,000 and to pledge to the Company a Capital Asset
Certificate for $5,000,000 which would be used to secure additional borrowings.
The Company has not received the $100,000, or the pledge of the asset
certificate. This issuance of stock has not been reflected in the Company's
accounting records because the consideration for the Company's shares has not
been received. Per the terms of the agreement the 8,900,000 shares will be
returned to the Company if the loan proceeds are not received. Management is
presently looking for acquisition candidates, and can give no assurances as to
if and when they may make an acquisition.
