                                     PART I
Item 1.   Business
- ------------------

Significant Developments During Year Ended January 31, 2000

         During the year ended  January  31,  2000,  the  Company  engaged in no
significant business activities.

         At the  present  time,  the  Company's  financial  resources  have been
substantially exhausted and management does not know of any additional financing
available  to the  Company.  The Company  has no  continuing  on-going  business
activities at this time other than holding certain of its properties  subject to
lease or option to  purchase  by  unrelated  third  parties.  The Company has no
meaningful available financial resources,  and only minimal personnel resources.
The Company has liquidated  substantially  all its assets and paid off its trade
creditors  in a continuing  effort to wind up its business  other than through a
court  supervised  process,   which  would  entail  significant   administrative
expenses.  The Company has paid  substantially all of its trade debt (other than
to related  parties) and it is unlikely  any payments  will be made on its other
indebtedness,  which has been  voluntarily  subordinated  to the Company's trade
creditors.

         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 has been and remains doubtful.  Accordingly, the Company may not be able to
continue filing periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As
was the case in 1997, 1998 and 1999, the financial statements included with this
Form  10-KSB  are not  audited  because  the  Company  was not able to incur the
expense of an audit.

         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.  Correspondingly,
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.

         As previously  reported,  the Company  posted a $220,000 cash bond with
the Nevada Division of Environmental  Protection  (NDEP) in fiscal 1996 to cover
reclamation  costs  associated  with the Company's  former Dean Mine.  Following
discussions  with  and  review  of  plans  by  NDEP,  the  Company  commissioned
reclamation work during calendar year 1997. Principal items included closure and
sealing of adits (mine openings), road regrading,  waste dump reclamation,  heap
leach pad  regrading and related  matters.  As work was certified by NDEP during
the years  ended  January  31,  1998,  1999 and 2000,  NDEP  authorized  partial
releases  from the cash bond to pay for work  performed.  At January  31,  2000,
$78,000  remained  available under the cash bond. In order to permit the Company
to pay its  independent  contractor for  reclamation  work completed but not yet
funded under its cash bond, a shareholder  of the Company has advanced  funds to
the  contractor.  These  advances have been  recorded on the Company's  books as
shareholder  advances,  which will be repaid as further  releases  from the cash
bond are authorized. At January 31, 2000, shareholder advances totaled $552,000,
a decrease of $10,000 from the $562,000 outstanding at January 31, 1999.

Other Matters

         Until  1995,   the  Company  had  been  engaged  in  the   acquisition,
exploration and, if warranted,  development of natural resource  properties.  At
the present time,  the Company has ceased all active  operations,  and is in the
process  of winding up its  business.  The  Company  had or has an  interest  in
various  properties located primarily in the Battle Mountain and Carlin areas of
central Nevada,  which  properties  were acquired in the expectation  they could
have economic potential for gold and silver mineralization (ore deposits). There
can be no assurance any of its remaining properties have a commercially mineable
ore body  unless and until  further  exploration  and  feasibility  studies  are
concluded.  For a number of years,  the only active  operations were those being
undertaken at the Company's Dean Mine site. This property and other  information
concerning  properties  still held by the  Company  are  described  in "Item 2 -
Properties" below.

         Employees;  Offices.  While it was  engaged in active  exploration  and
development  operations,  the Company relied almost exclusively upon independent
contractors  and  consultants to provide  equipment,  geological,  technical and
professional  and other  administrative  services.  With the cessation of active
business  operations  the Company has  terminated  all employees and most of its
consultant relationships.  During the fiscal years ended January 31, 1997, 1998,
1999 and 2000,  the Company had no  employees.  The Company  previously  owned a


                                      -2-
<PAGE>

house  and  small  office  building,  both in  Battle  Mountain,  Nevada,  which
functioned as an office and as employee  housing.  These properties were sold in
December, 1994, and June, 1995, respectively.  At the present time the Company's
executive office in Richmond, Virginia, is maintained in the office of its Board
Chairman, C. B. Robertson, III. The Company does not reimburse Mr. Robertson any
portion  of his  lease  expense  but has  reimbursed  him from  time to time for
certain  telephone and other operating  expenses incurred in connection with the
Company's   business.   See  "Item  12  -  Certain   Relationships  and  Related
Transactions" below.

Item 2.   Properties
- --------------------

         Mining  Properties.  The Company's former and remaining  properties are
located in the Battle Mountain area of north central Nevada. The Battle Mountain
area comprises the central  portion of the Battle  Mountain-Eureka  Gold Belt, a
chain of over 14 known metal deposits which stretch approximately 100 miles from
the Marigold  deposit in the  northwest,  to the Windfall Mine in the southeast.
Four of the 14 known deposits are located in the Battle  Mountain area, the most
significant of which is the Fortitude Mine of Battle Mountain Gold Company.

         The  Company  has  no  patents,  trademarks,  licenses,  franchises  or
concessions material to its operations.

Dean Mine Property

         The Company's  principal  property used in its former  business was its
Dean Mine  leasehold and a 560-acre  mill site owned in fee. The Company's  Form
10-K for the year ended  January 31, 1995,  contains a detailed  description  of
exploratory  mining  activities  conducted at the Company's  Dean Mine leasehold
site, which activities were concluded during the year ended January 31, 1995. No
further  mining  efforts  were  conducted at the Dean Mine  property  during the
fiscal  years ended  January 31, 1996 or  thereafter.  The  Company's  leasehold
interest in the Dean Mine property was terminated  effective March 11, 1996, and
the Company has previously disposed of the 560-acre mill site.

         As previously  reported,  during the year ended  January 31, 1996,  the
Company  completed  posting a cash bond in the amount of $220,000 as required by
the Nevada Division of Environmental  Protection,  to cover reclamation costs on
the Dean Mine  property.  As a result of reclamation  efforts  undertaken by the
Company  during  fiscal 1998,  1999 and 2000,  the balance  remaining  under the
foregoing cash bond at January 31, 2000 was $78,000.

AMAX/Draco, Hancock Canyon and Trenton Canyon Properties

         The Company's principal remaining  properties owned at the beginning of
the fiscal year,  known as AMAX/Draco,  Hancock Canyon and Trenton  Canyon,  are
described  below.  The Company carries these interests on its books at a nominal
$1.00 value.  During the year ended January 31, 2000,  the Company  quit-claimed
its interests in the Hancock Canyon and Trenton Canyon  properties in resolution
of its only remaining outstanding account payable from operations.

         AMAX/Draco.  As  described  in the  Company's  Form 10-KSB for the year
ended  January 31,  1996,  the Company  acquired a group of claims  known as the
AMAX/Draco  property  from Luning Gold,  Inc.  pursuant to a purchase  agreement
dated  August 8, 1990.  These claims are in the Lewis  Mining  District,  Lander
County,  Nevada,  approximately 15 miles southeast of Battle Mountain. The claim
block consists of three separate blocks  containing a total of 107 claim blocks.
A  production  payment  ($300,000  due from the lesser of 25% of  production  or
$25,000 payable  quarterly after the start of production) is still due, but only
after the project goes into  production.  As  previously  reported,  the Company
granted  an option on a portion  of this  property  (44 claim  blocks) to Cameco
(U.S.) Inc., a U.S.  subsidiary of Cameco Corporation,  a Canadian  corporation.
The Agreement provided for an option expiring October 9, 1999, pursuant to which
the optionee could purchase the subject  property  (described as the "BXA" group
of  unpatented  lode claims in Lander  County,  Nevada) for a purchase  price of
$75,000, subject to a reserved 1% net smelter royalty to the Company. The option
price payable to the Company aggregated $70,000,  paid $10,000 upon satisfaction
of certain conditions, with the balance paid $10,000 on the first anniversary of
the effective date, $20,000 on the second anniversary,  and $30,000 on the third
anniversary.  The optionee  retained  the right to  terminate  the option at any
time. The optionee made its third and final  anniversary  payment in the fall of
1998. As previously reported, on May 18, 1999, Cameco (U.S.) Inc. gave notice of
its termination of the Option Agreement on the BXA group of claims.

<PAGE>

         As  previously  reported,  in August  1998,  the Company  concluded  an
agreement  with  Triband  Resources  U.S.  Inc.  for the  sub-lease  of  various
properties,  including the remaining 63 claim blocks in the AMAX/Draco property.
Upon  execution of the agreement with Triband,  the Company  received an initial
cash  payment  of  $15,000;  an  additional  $15,000  is  payable  on the  first
anniversary;  and  $25,000 is payable on the  second  anniversary  and  annually
thereafter, subject to escalation in certain circumstances. Under the agreement,
the Company has retained a 4% net smelting royalty,  subject to reduction in the
event of the exercise of certain option rights granted to Triband Resources.

         Hancock Canyon.  The Company acquired various  properties from Auritech
in 1987. The mining lease  encompassed  five  properties,  Indian Grouse,  Horse
Canyon,  Hancock Canyon,  Mill Creek and Trenton Canyon. The lease obligated the
Company initially to issue to Auritech 250,000 shares of Common Stock.  Further,
the lease  contemplated  the issuance of 150,000 shares of Common Stock for each
property brought to production.  A net smelter royalty of 0.5% would also be due
in the event of production on the properties.  Annual lease payments are paid to
Santa Fe Minerals pursuant to an underlying lease. These properties were subject
to  various  joint  venture  agreements,  all of which  were  later  terminated.
Additionally, the Company has terminated the leases for the Horse Canyon, Indian
Grouse, Mill Creek and Trenton Canyon properties.

         The  Company  retained  the Hancock  Canyon  property.  This  property,
consisting of 58 claims,  is located on the western side of the Shoshone  Range,
approximately  2 miles north of Mill Creek and  approximately  25 miles south of
Battle Mountain.  In 1994, the Company undertook additional steps to clear title
to the Hancock Canyon  property in anticipation of a possible joint venture with
another  mining  company,  but no such joint  venture was ever agreed upon.  The
Company  obtained title to Hancock Canyon,  but was still obligated to Barringer
Technologies,  Inc.,  the  successor  to the prior  owner,  for the net  smelter
royalty.  Under  the terms of that  arrangement,  after  the  Company  had spent
$80,000 on drilling into that property, a payment was due in the form of 150,000
shares of Company Common Stock.

         Trenton  Canyon.  Also,  although the Company  terminated the lease for
Trenton Canyon, it later staked over that property.  Lode claims, Mill 1 through
31,  were  staked in the Battle  Mountain  area on the west side of Antler  Peak
which adjoins Santa Fe's North Peak project to the west. If the Company ever had
undertaken to develop that property, it may have been obligated to pay the prior
owner the net smelter royalty of 0.5%.

         Disposition  of  Hancock  Canyon  and  Trenton  Canyon  Properties.  As
previously  reported,  in August 1999 the Company  quit-claimed its interests in
the Trenton and Hancock Canyon properties to Sierra Mining & Engineering, L.L.C.
("SME") in exchange for a full release from 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.  The
Company no longer had the  financial  resources  to pay the annual  filing  fees
necessary to hold onto these properties.

         As previously reported,  the Hancock and Trenton Canyon properties were
written down,  together with certain other properties,  to a nominal $1.00 value
at year-end January 31, 1995.

         Other Leasehold  Interests.  The Company also holds under lease a group
of claims on properties in the Battle  Mountain area known as Whiskey Canyon and
Red Cap. As previously  reported,  in August 1998,  the Company  entered into an
agreement with Triband  Resources U.S. Inc., as described above.  This agreement
covered the  Company's  leasehold  interest  in the  Whiskey  Canyon and Red Cap
claims, as well as the AMAX/Draco claims described above.

Item 6.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
          Results of Operations
          ---------------------


(a)      Results of Operations for the Year Ended January 31, 2000
         ---------------------------------------------------------

         During the year ended  January  31,  2000,  the  Company  engaged in no
         material business activities other that as described herein.

         During the year the Company had cash  receipts of $15,000.  The Company
         did not incur any further remediation  expenses on its former Dean Mine
         property during the year, compared to expenses of $159,000 in the prior
         year.  Accounts  payable at January  31,  2000  decreased  to zero from
         $52,000 the preceding year as a result of the resolution and release of
         one outstanding account payable and a determination by the Company that
         the remaining amount outstanding ($18,000) represented dormant payables
         outstanding  on the  Company's  books for more  than five  years and no
         longer considered due and owing.

         The Company  had a net loss for the year of $787,000  ($0.06 per share)
         compared  to a net loss of  $840,000  ($0.06 per share) the prior year.
         Accrued  interest for the year was  $847,000,  compared to $717,000 the
         prior period. The Company had a net recovery of reclamation expenses of
         $58,000 for the year, compared to reclamation  expenses of $159,000 for
         the prior period.  The recovery was due to the resolution and write-off
         of  the  accounts  payable   described  in  the  preceding   paragraph.
         Professional fees were $10,000 for the year, compared to $29,000 in the
         prior period.  The lower fees were due to the reduced level of property
         lease and sale activities.

         Total assets at year end were $84,000,  with $6,000 in cash and $78,000
         in other  assets  (balance of  reclamation  bond posted with NDEP).  At
         year-end the Company had current liabilities of $4,860,000, an increase
         of $785,000  over the prior year  (attributable  primarily to increased
         accrued interest) and long-term debt of $6,945,000.  Long-term debt was
         unchanged  from  January 31,  1999.  Shareholder  equity at January 31,
         2000, was negative  ($11,721,000) compared to negative ($10,934,000) at
         January 31, 1999.

(b)      Results of Operations for the Year Ended January 31, 1999
         ---------------------------------------------------------

         During the year ended  January  31,  1999,  the  Company  engaged in no
         material  business  activities  other  than  (i) to  undertake  certain
         environmental  remediation  work at its former Dean Mine site in Battle
         Mountain,  Nevada  area;  and (ii) to sell or  lease,  in the  ordinary
         course of business, certain of its remaining properties.

         During  the year  the  Company  had cash  receipts  of  $65,000.  These
         consisted of a $30,000  payment under one existing lease  agreement,  a
         $20,000 payment under a contract for the sale of one piece of property,
         and  a  $15,000  payment  upon  the  commencement  of a  new  sub-lease
         agreement  for  certain  properties.  The  Company  continued  to incur
         substantial  remediation  expenses  in order  to  comply  with  certain
         requirements of the Nevada Division of Environmental  Protection (NDEP)
         with  respect to the  Company's  former Dean Mine  leasehold.  Although
         accounts payable at January 31, 1999, decreased from $199,000 the prior
         year to $52,000, advances from shareholders,  which were made to permit
         the Company to pay for certain of this work, increased from $320,000 to
         $562,000 at January 31, 1999.

         The Company  had a net loss of  $840,000  ($.05 per share) for the year
         compared  to a net loss of  $895,000  ($.06 per share) the prior  year.
         Accrued  interest for the year, was $717,000,  compared to $554,000 the
         prior period;  reclamation  expenses were $159,000 compared to $363,000
         the prior period.  Professional  fees were $29,000  compared to $13,000
         the prior  period,  mostly as a result of new  property  sale and lease
         transactions.

         Total assets at year end were $86,000,  with $6,000 in cash and $80,000
         in other  assets  (balance of  reclamation  bond posted with NDEP).  At
         year-end the Company had current liabilities of $4,075,000, an increase
         of  $856,000  over  the  prior  year (of this  increase,  $771,000  was
         attributable  to  accrued  interest  expense),  and  long-term  debt of
         $6,945,000. Shareholder equity was negative ($10,934,000),  compared to
         ($10,094,000) at January 31, 1998.

(c)      Liquidity and Capital Resources at Year End January 31, 2000
         ------------------------------------------------------------

         The Company had no material liquidity or capital resources at year end,
         January 31,  2000.  At that date,  the  Company  had current  assets of
         $6,000 and current  liabilities of $4.86 million.  Current  liabilities
         include $4.22 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 (other than through one payment under an option agreement for
         the sale of certain  capital  assets)  during the  twelve-month  period
         ended  January 31, 2000.  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  Dean  Mine  Net  Cash  Flow) 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.

</TABLE>

* The beneficial  ownership table reflects Company Common Stock holdings,  which
  figures  include  holdings of Preferred Stock adjusted to reflect each series'
  respective  initial  conversion ratio into Company Common Stock. In accordance
  with rules and  regulations of the SEC,  beneficial  ownership and percentages
  assume,  for each individual shown, the conversion of all Preferred Stock held
  by such individual but not any other shareholder, thus potentially overstating
  such person's beneficial  ownership in the Company.  Beneficial  ownership for
  all directors and executive  officers as a group assumes the conversion of all
  Preferred Stock held by all such individuals in the group but not by any other
  shareholder,  thus  potentially  overstating the beneficial  ownership of such
  group.

**These  calculations  do not include  shares  convertible  into Company  Common
  Stock by persons holding  Operations  Advances.  Pursuant to those  Operations
  Advances,  holders may convert each $1.00 in  Operations  Advances  into seven
  shares of  Company  Common  Stock.  However,  such  conversion  rights are not
  practically  effective  pursuant  to the  terms of those  Operations  Advances
  unless  and until the  Company's  articles  of  incorporation  are  amended to
  increase the number of authorized  shares of Company  Common Stock to a number
  sufficient  to  permit  conversion  of  those  Operations  Advances.  No  such
  shareholder  approval  had  been  sought  or  obtained  as of the date of this
  report.  Holders of more than five percent of the Company's outstanding Common
  Stock,  and directors and officers named in the Executive  Compensation  Table
  above hold Operations Advances as follows: Mr. Hunton:  $100,000;  Mr. Nesbit:
  $42,000; Mr. Pollard: $625,000; and Mr. Robertson: $575,000.

(1)  Includes  1,000,000  shares which Mr. Hunton may acquire upon conversion of
     250 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

     beneficial ownership.

                        NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                    UNAUDITED

                            JANUARY 31, 2000 AND 1999

                           (EXPRESSED IN U.S. DOLLARS)




1.       GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS

         The  Company  has been  unable  to  attain  profitable  operations  and
         generate  funds  therefrom  and/or raise equity capital to meet current
         and future obligations.

         At the  present  time,  the  Company's  financial  resources  have been
         substantially  exhausted and management does not know of any additional
         financing  available  to the  Company.  The Company  has no  continuing
         on-going   business   activities   at  this  time  other  than  certain
         remediation  efforts  at  its  former  Dean  Mine  leasehold,  and  its
         activities  holding  certain  of its  properties  subject to options to
         purchase by  unrelated  third  parties.  Although  the Company is still
         interested  in  the  possibility  of   participating  in  other  mining
         projects, it has no meaningful available financial resources,  and only
         minimal personnel resources.  The Company has liquidated  substantially
         all its assets and paid off its trade  creditors to the extent possible
         in a  continuing  effort to wind up its  business  other than through a
         court supervised process, which would entail significant administrative
         expenses.  The  Company  has paid most of its trade debt (other than to
         related  parties) and it is unlikely  any payments  will be made on its
         other  indebtedness,  which has been  voluntarily  subordinated  to the
         Company's trade creditors.

         At year-end January 31, 1995, management reviewed the Dean Mine project
         and  concluded  that it did not contain  sufficient  mineable ore to be
         economically viable. The Company has ceased exploration and has written
         down the carrying  values of mineral  interests to their  estimated net
         realizable   value,   as   determined   by   management  or  subsequent
         disposition.

         As at January 31, 2000 and 1999,  the  Company's  liabilities  exceeded
         total assets by $11,721,000 and $10,934,000,  respectively. The Company
         was  notified in 1994 by two holders of term notes that the Company was
         in default  under the terms of these  agreements,  although the Company
         does not  agree  with  this  contention.  See  Note 8 to the  financial
         statements.   During  the  year-ended  1997,  the  Company's  leasehold
         interest in the Dean Mine was terminated by the lessor.

         As noted, management has been in the process of disposing of assets and
         settling its trade liabilities as funds become  available.  The Company
         has not made any proposals to the holders of its  operations  advances,
         gold  delivery  contracts  and term notes for  settlement of amounts at
         less than the face value of these debts.  The  estimate of  reclamation
         costs has been accrued in the year end financial statements. See Note 4
         to the financial statements.

2.       ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         (a)      Accounting Principles

                  These consolidated  financial statements have been prepared in
                  accordance with  accounting  principles and practices that are
                  generally accepted in the United States.

         (b)      Mineral Interests

                  Through the fiscal year ended  January 31,  1996,  the Company
                  engaged in the exploration and development of mineral resource
                  properties.  It recorded  mineral  interests  at cost or at an
                  ascribed amount if the  consideration  was common shares.  The
                  Company  included in costs the lease and option  payments  and
                  advanced  royalties on properties  held under lease and option
                  agreements.   The  Company  carried  its  investments  net  of
                  recoveries from former joint venture partners.

         (c)      Values of Mineral Interests

                  Historically,   the  amounts   shown  for  mineral   interests
                  represented  nominal costs of retained  properties and did not
                  necessarily   represent   present   or  future   values.   The
                  recoverability   of  these  amounts  was  dependent  upon  the
                  confirmation of economically recoverable reserves, the ability
                  of the Company to obtain necessary  financing to meet property
                  purchase,  lease, option and minimum  exploration  commitments
                  and  to  successfully  complete  their  development  and  upon
                  subsequent profitable production. The Company's investments in
                  resource  properties  have been subject to periodic review for
                  permanent impairment.  Generally,  the Company considered that
                  impairment of a mineral interest  occurred at the earlier of a
                  decision  by  management  to  abandon  the  claims or that the
                  carrying  value of an  investment  in a  mineral  interest  or
                  project  will likely  exceed the future net cash flows.  As of
                  January 31, 1995,  the Company's  retained  mineral  interests
                  were written down to a nominal amount. As of January 31, 1997,
                  the Company's retained mineral interests were reduced to zero.

         (d)      Income Taxes

                  Effective  February l, 1994, the Company adopted the method of
                  accounting  for  income  taxes   prescribed  by  Statement  of
                  Financial  Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income
                  Taxes".  Among other  requirements,  tax  benefits  related to
                  operating  losses  are to be  recognized  in the  accounts  if
                  management believes,  based on available evidence,  that it is
                  more  likely than not that they will be  realized.  Due to the
                  nature of the Company's  development  stage operations and the
                  unlikelihood  of  realization  within a  reasonable  time,  no
                  fixture tax benefit has been  recognized  in the  accounts for
                  the current or prior years.

         (e)      Loss Per Share

                  Basic loss per share is  calculated  on the  weighted  average
                  number of common shares  outstanding  during the year.  Common
                  stock equivalents, convertible debt and convertible shares and
                  other  adjustments in  determining  any diluted loss per share
                  are not included in the weighted  average if they would reduce
                  the Company's reported loss per share.

3.       MINERAL INTERESTS

         The Company holds its remaining mineral interests under various mineral
         agreements. The mineral interests are subject to royalties ranging from
         3 % to 6 % of net smelter  returns.  Certain  interests  are subject to
         production commencement payments and consumer price index adjustments.

4.       OTHER ASSETS
                                              2000                  1999
                                              ----                  ----

         Reclamation deposits               $78,000               $80,000
                                            =======               =======

         Reclamation deposits are comprised of interest-bearing  certificates of
         deposit,  which have been pledged as security  with the State of Nevada
         for the performance of the Company's reclamation commitments. The funds
         will not be available for general working  capital  purposes until such
         time as the approved reclamation program has been completed. During the
         year ended  January 31, 2000 and 1999,  the State of Nevada  authorized
         the release of $-0- and  $40,000,  respectively,  from the  reclamation
         deposits as reclamation work was performed.

         (d)    Operations Advances

                In 1994, the Company authorized up to $2,000,000 of non-interest
                bearing senior  convertible  promissory notes which,  subject to
                authorization  of additional  common shares,  are convertible at
                the option of the holder  into 7 common  shares for each  dollar
                advanced.  No such authorization of additional common shares has
                been sought or  obtained,  so the  conversion  privilege  is not
                effective.   The  notes   are  to  be   repaid  in   semi-annual
                installments  from future net cash flow from the Company's  Dean
                Mine as  calculated at January 31 or July 31 and payable April l
                and October 1  respectively.  No  payments  were made during the
                fiscal years ending January 31, 2000 and 1999.

         (e)    Gold Delivery Contracts - Related Parties

                The holders of the gold  delivery  contracts  have  subordinated
                their right to any repayment  until such time as the  operations
                advances   have  been  repaid  in  fill.   The   contracts   are
                non-interest  bearing  and are  repayable  by  delivery of 2,694
                ounces of gold. At January 31, 2000, the equivalent value of the


                                      F-9
<PAGE>

                gold obligation was $781,260, a reduction from the prior year of
                $-0- to  reflect  changes  in the price of gold.  Related  party
                interest charges for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2000 and
                1999 include  provisions of $(-0-) and $(53,740),  respectively,
                for  decrease  in the value of the gold  obligation  during  the
                periods shown.

         (f)    Term Notes Payable and Related Interest

                The holders of the term notes  payable have  subordinated  their
                right to any repayment of principal or interest  until such time
                as the operations advances have been repaid in full.

                No  interest  was paid by the  Company  during the fiscal  years
                ending  January 3l,  2000 and 1999.  In 1993,  the Company  made
                interest  payments of $120,290.  Interest  payable as at January
                31, 2000 is summarized as follows:

                  The Company was  notified in 1994 by two holders of term notes
                  that the Company was in default  under the terms of such notes
                  and  the  lenders  demanded  repayment  of  notes  aggregating
                  $900,000.  Management  is of the opinion that the lenders have
                  subordinated their rights to repayment until the retirement of
                  the operations advances, and so advised the holders.

         (g)      Principal Payments

                  Due to the  uncertainty  of repayment of  operations  advances
                  from net cash flow, the conversion  rights to common shares of
                  the  operations   advances  and  the   subordination   to  the
                  operations  advances of the gold  delivery  contracts and term
                  notes  payable,  these  amounts  are  carried  as  non-current
                  liabilities.

                  Principal payments of unsubordinated other long-term debt over
                  the next five  years  are:  2001 - $Nil;  2002 - $Nil;  2003 -
                  $Nil; 2004 - $Nil; 2005 - $Nil.

                  The  Company  has  agreed  not to incur,  create or assume any
                  funded debt  ranking  ahead of the term notes,  declare or pay
                  dividends  on  its  shares,  purchase  or  redeem  any  of its
                  outstanding  share  capital  or  distribute  any assets to its
                  shareholders without the prior written consent of the lenders.

8.       INCOME TAXES

         The Company has incurred  resource-related  expenditures  and operating
         losses which are available to reduce future years taxable income. As at
         January  31,  2000,  tax  losses  of  approximately   $22,947,000  were
         available for  carry-forward.  The future  benefits in respect of these
         losses  have been  offset by a  valuation  allowance  arising  from the
         Company's assessment of likelihood of realization.  The availability of
         these losses  expires as follows:  2002 - $378,000;  2003 - $1,449,000;
         2004  -  $2,944,000;  2005  -  $537,000;  2006  -  $2,227,000;  2007  -
         $2,532,000;  2008 - $2,858,000;  2009 - $4,358,000;  2010 - $2,441,000;
         2011 - $661,000; 2013 - $893,000; 2014 - $840,000 and 2015 - $787,000.

         No income  taxes  were paid or payable  by the  Company  during the two
         fiscal years ending January 31, 2000.

         The  comparative  figures have been restated where necessary to conform
         to the current year's financial statement presentation.

10.      SHARE CAPITAL

         (a)      Authorized Capital

                  30,000,000 common shares of $.01 par value per share
                  10,000,000 preferred shares of $.01 par value per share

                  The preferred  shares may be issued in one or more series with
                  the rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions determined
                  by the directors prior to each issue.

                  The directors have designated 1,750 preferred shares as Series
                  A,  participating,   voting,   convertible,   $.01  par  value
                  (liquidation value $1,000 each) and 1,500,000 preferred shares
                  as Series B participating, voting, convertible, $.01 par value
                  (liquidation  value $3 each). Each preferred share is entitled
                  to the number of votes and dividends  based on the  conversion
                  ratio, subject to shareholder  authorization of an increase in
                  the  Company's   authorized  common  shares.  The  shares  are


                                      F-12
<PAGE>

                  currently  convertible  at the  option  of the  holder  in the
                  ratios of 4,000 common  shares for each Series A and 10 common
                  shares  for each  Series B  preferred  share.  The  conversion
                  ratios for Series A and B are  subject to  adjustments  in the
                  event of subsequent  issues of shares or convertible  debt for
                  consideration  less  than  $.25  and $.30  per  common  share,
                  respectively.

                  The Company has issued  operations  advances with  conditional
                  conversion  rights  which,  if  exercised,  will  require  the
                  Company  to issue  additional  common  shares in excess of the
                  Company's authorized common share capital. The Company has not
                  requested   shareholder  approval  for  any  increase  in  its
                  authorized  common  shares,  and  consequently  the conversion
                  privilege  is not  effective.  The  reported  ratios  for  all
                  convertible  debt have not been  adjusted so as to assume that
                  required approvals have been obtained.
