             NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                OCTOBER 31, 1999

                    (EXPRESSED IN THOUSANDS OF U.S. DOLLARS)



1.       ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         These interim  consolidated  financial statements have been prepared in
         accordance with accounting  principles and practices that are generally
         accepted in the United States.  The notes to the Company's  (unaudited)
         consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 1999, substantially
         apply to the interim financial  statements at October 31, 1999, and are
         not repeated here.


2.       INTERIM ADJUSTMENTS

         The unaudited  interim financial  information  reflects all adjustments
         which are, in the opinion of management,  necessary to a fair statement
         of the results for the interim period presented.  These adjustments are
         of a normal recurring nature.

3.       STATUS OF BUSINESS

         The Company is not engaged in any active business.  There was no change
         during  the  quarter  ending  October  31,  1999,  with  respect to the
         Company's  continuing efforts to reach an out-of-court  accord with its
         trade creditors. See Item 5, Other Information, of Part II of this Form
         10-QSB.

                Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                       Condition and Results of Operations


Results of Operations - Financial


         Revenues.  The Company had no revenues during the quarter ended October
31,  1999.  It had  revenues  of  $15,000  from one  option  payment  during the
comparable  period in the preceding  year. For the nine months ended October 31,
1999,  the Company had revenues of $15,000  compared to $45,000  during the nine
months ended October 31, 1998.



         Costs and  Expenses.  During the quarter  ended  October 31, 1999,  the
Company had total  administrative  costs of $268,000 compared to $204,000 in the
comparable  period in the prior year.  The Company had a recovery on reclamation
costs during the period of $24,000.  There were no reclamation costs or recovery
during  the  comparable  period in the  preceding  year.  Accrued  interest  was
$279,000  during the  period,  compared to  $196,000  during the  quarter  ended
October  31,  1998.   For  the  nine  months  ended  October  31,  1999,   total
administrative costs were $577,000 compared to $741,000 in the comparable period
ended October 31, 1998.

         Interest  Income.  The Company had interest income during the period of
$1,000, compared to $1,000 during the comparable period in the preceding year.



         Net Loss.  The Company had a net loss for the quarter ended October 31,
of $267,000  (or $.02 per share),  compared to $158,000  (or $.01 per share) for
the  comparable  period in the prior year. For the nine months ended October 31,
1999,  the  Company  had a net loss of  $559,000  ($.04 per share)  compared  to
$689,000 ($.05 per share) in the nine months ended October 31, 1998.



Analysis of Financial Condition

                  The Company had no material  liquidity or capital resources at
quarter ended October 31, 1999. At that date,  the Company had current assets of
$5,000 and current liabilities of $4.6 million. Current liabilities include $4.0
million of accrued interest payable which is in arrears.  A substantial  portion
of the Company's current  liabilities and other  indebtedness is owed to related
parties.  The Company  obtained no new financing  during the three-month  period
ended  October  31,  1999.  The Company  continues  to seek to satisfy its trade
creditors and other  operational  expenses other than through a court supervised
process.  The Company does not presently  expect to be in a position to make any
payments on its Operations Advances (which are payable solely from net cash flow
from the Company's  now-terminated Dean Mine operations) or on its Gold Delivery
Contracts  and  $4.3  million  principal  amount  of term  debt,  both of  which
categories have been  voluntarily  subordinated by the holders to the payment of
the Operations Advances.

Item 1.    Legal proceedings.

           (a)    See Item 5 below.


Item 2.    Changes in securities.

           (a)    None

           (b)    None


Item 3.    Defaults upon senior securities.

                  Under  the  Company's   Phase  I  and  II  Loan   Commitments,
                  non-payment  of  interest  constitutes  an event  of  default;
                  however, a note holder must advise the Company in writing that
                  he declares his debt to be in default. As previously reported,
                  two note holders,  one a former  related party of the Company,
                  advised the Company in January,  1994, that the Company was in
                  default  with respect to the  Company's  debt  obligations  to
                  them.  The Company  advised such holders that it did not agree
                  with their position.


Item 4.    Submission of matters to a vote of security holders.

                  None


Item 5.    Other information.

                  General.   The  Company's   financial   resources   have  been
                  substantially  exhausted and  management  does not know of any
                  significant additional financing available to the Company. The
                  Company has no continuing on-going business operations at this
                  time.  The Company  has been  seeking,  since  early 1995,  to
                  satisfy its trade debt other than  through a court  supervised
                  process,   which  would  entail   significant   administrative
                  expenses.  The Company has been able to satisfy a  substantial
                  portion  of its  trade  debt,  but in light  of its  financial
                  position,  it is  unlikely  any  payments  will be made on its
                  other indebtedness,  which has been voluntary  subordinated to
                  the Company's trade creditors.

                  SEC Reporting Obligations.  Because of the Company's financial
                  condition and its consequent  difficulty  paying the attendant
                  legal and accounting expenses, its ability to continue to meet
                  its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of
                  1934 remains  questionable.  The financial statements included
                  with its Form 10-KSB for the year ended January 31, 1999, were
                  not audited by an independent  certified  accountant,  because
                  the Company could not afford the cost of an audit. The Company
                  sought and  obtained  administrative  relief from the staff of
                  the Securities and Exchange  Commission  from the  requirement
                  that it obtain an  audited  financial  statement  for its Form
                  10-KSB filing.

                  Inability to Pay  Indebtedness.  Management does not presently
                  anticipate that any of its outstanding  obligations  under its
                  Operations Advances,  Gold Delivery Contracts and term debt, a
                  substantial portion of which outstanding  obligations are held
                  by  members  of  the  Company's  board  of  directors,  can be
                  satisfied.  Accordingly,  management  does not  believe,  as a
                  practical  matter,  that  there is any  remaining  value to be
                  ascribed  to the  Company's  outstanding  preferred  stock  or
                  common stock.

                  Status of  Properties.  As  previously  reported,  during  the
                  quarter  ended  July 31,  the  Company  entered  into a verbal
                  agreement  whereby it agreed to quit-claim any interest it may
                  have in the Hancock  Canyon (58 claims) and Trenton Canyon (31
                  claims)  properties in exchange for a full release from Sierra
                  Mining &  Engineering  L.L.C.  ("SME")  and its  owner,  James
                  Golden,  for any and all work  performed by SME in  connection
                  with the  reclamation  of the Company's  formerly  leased Dean
                  Mine property or in any other  respect.  This  conveyance  and
                  settlement  was  finalized as of August 30, 1999.  The Hancock
                  Canyon  property  had  previously  been under option to Cameco
                  (U.S.) Inc., as described in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the
                  year ended January 31, 1999, but as previously  disclosed that
                  option was  terminated  by the  optionee  in April  1998.  The
                  Company  has  previously  terminated  a  lease  it held on the
                  Trenton Canyon properties,  but had staked over that property.
                  The Company no longer has the  financial  resources to pay the
                  necessary annual renewal fees to hold onto those claims.

         (b)      Reports on Form 8-K:  None
