RE: 10-K filing for Auric Metals Corporation
Certain matters essential to the completion of our audit for fiscal year
ended March 31, 1996 required our ability to contact the Company's president
and chief executive officer. We have not been able to contact this person
since he has been out of the country for most of the month June. This
situation has created a delay in our completion date. A fifteen day
extension for time file the current 10-K is needed.
Sincerely,
Gerald K. Strong, CPA
