CONTINENTAL WELLNESS CASINOS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31, 1996


1.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:


   Description of Business - The Company is engaged in the mining
development industry. Since October 
   22, 1974, the Company has owned and operated thirty-nine (39) mines and
one (1) mill site at Quincy, 
   Plumas County, California, and is engaged inthe exploration of said mines
for the production of precious 
   metal like gold and silver. The Company also applied for a license in Las
Vegas, Nevada to conduct Life 
   Extension programs and to operate hotels and casinos.

   Currency Transactions - There are no assets and liabilities of operations
outside the United States which 
   need to be translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates.

   Development Costs - The Company will not capitalize property taxes on its
mining properties until the
   mines are ready for operation and development.

2. GOLD IN STORAGE AT BONDED WAREHOUSE:

   On October 9, 1990, the Company deposited at NDS, United States Customs
Bonded Warehouse located 
   at 19801 S. Santa Fe Ave., Rancho Dominguez, California, 90221, six (6) 55
gallon - drum containers of 
   gold dust (poweder form) 999.5 pure weighing 76,112 troy ounces with a
value of $27,316,600 based on 
   the gold floor price of $358.90 per troy ounce. The market values of gold per
troy ounce as of October 31,
   1996 and October 31, 1995 are $378.00 AND $384.30, RESPECTIVELY. At
these prices, the gold in 
   storage would carry fair market values of $28,770,336 in 1996 and
$29,249,841 in 1995.

3. DEFERRED MINING EXPLORATION COSTS

   Deferred mining exploration costs were incurred in prior years with the
amounts being estimated based 
   on the prevailing costs of mining exploration at that time due to the absence
of supporting 
   documentation. On April 13, 1996, the Company issued shares of stocks
valued at $3,252,669 to pay for 
   its obligations thereto.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
   Grand American Bank Trust owns approximately 71 % of the Company's
Class "A" common stock as of 
   October 31, 1996.

5. PROVEN GOLD AND SILVER RESERVE:

   The process of estimating reserves is very complex, requiring significant
subjective decisions in evaluation 
   available geological, engineering and economic data for each reserve. The
data for a given reserve may 
   change substantially over time as a result of additional development
activity,
production under varying 
   economic conditions, etc. 






<PAGE>       14

Consequently, material revision to the existing reserve estimates may occur in
the
future. Although, every reasonable effort was made to ensure that the reserve
estimates reported represent the most accurate assessment possible, the
significance
of the subjective decision required, the variances in the available data for
various
reserves, make these estimates generally less precise than other estimates in
connection with financial disclosure. Proven reserves are estimated quantities
of
gold and silver which geological and engineering data demonstrate, with
reasonable
certainty, to be recoverable in future years from known reserves under existing
economic and operating conditions.
   
Stickel and Associates, independent consultants in applied geology, geophysics
and
engineering, has estimated 7,000,000 troy ounces of gold and 19,000,000 troy
ounces
of silver. The values of these reserves based on average market prices as of
October
31, 1996 and October 31, 1995 are as follows :

Gentlemen :

This letter presents our present geological engineering evaluation of the
subject gold
and silver claims that are located in Plumas County, California.

We visited and inspected the property on April 19, and 20, 1985. The property
consists of approximately 750 acres of lode claims with a reported overlying of
a few
placer claims. The properties lie about 5 and 11 miles directly west of Quincy
on the
Bucks Lake Road.

The claims are named Blackhawk, Alan, MMC, and Dean. The Blackhawk, Alan
and MMC claims lie in Sections 21, 22, and 27 of T24N, R8E.  The Dean claims lie
in the northwest corner of Section 13, T24N, R8E.

GEOLOGY

These claims lie along the southwest and northwest borders of a northwest
trending
zone or band of highly fractured peridotite altered to serpentine. Broad fault
zones
bound the peridotite bodies or bands and there are no indications of heat
alteration.
There has been no production from hard rock mining, however, significant placer
hydraulicking and sluicing has occurred. The placer deposits occurr in two
periods
of erosion, the Present and the Tertiary. Although, concentrations of gold have
only
been found in the Blackhawk and Dean claims, it does occur scattered throughout
the peridotite.

PRESENCE OF GOLD AND SILVER

Reference 2 indicates that there is a conservative 10,000,000 tons of hard rock
ore
reserves. Rock chip and channel samples were obtained from 10 to 50 foot
sections
of road cuts and outcrops on these claims and it is reported "consistently
assayed
high in gold (AU) ."   The highest gold value was 2.80 oz/ton, however, the
overall
average was .7 oz/ton. Silver (Ag) ranged from a trace to 2.62 oz/ton. These
values
varied greatly, depending upon the freshness of the outcrop. Assays also
indicated
the presence of platinoid metals.

Total amount of gold and silver in these claims is 7,000,000 oz. Of gold and
19,000,000 oz. Of silver. These figures were compiled from data presented in
Reference 2.

It is reported that during the summer of 1983, approximately $30,000 worth of
placer gold was dredged from one of the creeks flowing through the Blackhawk
claims. This gold was dredged from an area of the creek about 100 yards long.
