GLOSSARY OF MINING TERMS

We are required under Canadian law (National Instrument 43-101 Standards Of Disclosure For Mineral Projects) (“NI 43-101”) to calculate and categorize “mineral reserve”, “proven mineral reserve”, “probable mineral reserve”, “mineral resource”, “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral resource” under the Canadian Institute of Mining Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves - Definitions and Guidelines adopted by the CIM in August 2000. These standards establish definitions and guidelines for the reporting of exploration information, mineral resources and mineral reserves in Canada. These definitions have not been adopted for use in the United States of America by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under these guidelines, the CIM definitions of proven and probable reserves equate to the definitions of proven and probable reserves as set out in Guide 7 of the Securities Act Industry Guides. In addition, Canadian law requires disclosure of mineral resources that equate to measured, indicated and inferred resources.

The following is a glossary of some of the terms used in the mining industry and referenced herein:

alluvial: A term used to identify particular types of, or minerals found associated with, deposits made by flowing water, such as alluvial gold

rsenopyrite: A major ore of arsenic, Arsenopyite can contain a small amount of gold as an impurity

assay – a precise and accurate analysis of the metal contents in an ore or rock sample

Au - gold.

auger drill – a handheld machine that produces small, continuous core samples in unconsolidated materials

breccia: A fragmental rock; any rock formation essentially composed of uncemented, or loosely consolidated, small angular

contained gold – total measurable gold in grams or ounces estimated to be contained within a mineral deposit. Makes no allowance for economic criteria, mining dilution or recovery losses.

diamond drill – a large machine that produces a more or less continuous core sample of the rock or material being drilled.

feasibility study – a detailed report assessing the feasibility, economics and engineering of placing a mineral deposit into commercial production

fracture: The general term to include any kind of discontinuity in a body of rock if produced by mechanical process such as shear stress or tensile stress

geological resource – a body of mineralized material which has not yet been determined to be ore, and the potential for mining of which has not yet been determined. Geological resources are categorized as possible, probable and proven, according to the degree of certainty with which their grade and tonnage are known; geological resources are sometimes referred to as a “ mineral resource” or “ mineral inventory”.

gm/mt or gpt - grams per tonne.

gold deposit - means a mineral deposit mineralised with gold.

gold resource – see geological or mineral resource

grams per cubic meter - alluvial mineralisation measured by grams of gold contained per cubic meter of material, a measure of gold content by volume not by weight.

graphite: A allotropic form of carbon found in nature

inferred mineral resource: That part of a mineral resource for which quantity and grade or quality can be estimated

- 4 -


on the basis of geological evidence and limited sampling and reasonably assumed, but not verified, geological and grade continuity. The estimate is based on limited information and sampling gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes

indicated mineral resource: That part of a mineral resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape and physical characteristics, can be estimated with a level of confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and economic parameters, to support mine planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. The estimate is based on detailed and reliable exploration and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes that are spaced closely enough for geological and grade continuity to be reasonably assumed

intrusive: cuts across (is intrusive into)

Listwanite: (carbonate altered serpentinite) is associated with gold mineralization.

lode mining – mining of gold bearing rocks, typically in the form of veins or stockworks

measured resource means that part of a mineral resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape, physical characteristics are so well established that they can be estimated with confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and economic parameters, to support production planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. The estimate is based on detailed and reliable exploration, sampling and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes that are spaced closely enough to confirm both geological and grade continuity.

mineral claim or mining claim: The portion of mining ground held under law by a claimant.

mineral reserve means the economically mineable part of a measured or indicated resource demonstrated by at least a preliminary feasibility study. This study must include adequate information on mining, processing, metallurgical, economic and other relevant factors that demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that economic extraction can be justified. A mineral reserve includes diluting materials and allowances for losses that may occur when the material is mined.

mineral resource means a concentration or occurrence of natural, solid, inorganic or fossilized organic material in or on the Earth’s crust in such form and quantity and of such a grade or quality that it has reasonable prospects for economic extraction. The location, quantity, grade, geological characteristics and continuity of a mineral resource are known, estimated or interpreted from specific geological evidence and knowledge.

mineralization: Implication that the rocks contain sulphide minerals and that these could be related to ore.

net profit interest (NPI) – effectively a royalty based on the net profits generated after recovery of all costs

net smelter royalty or NSR - a royalty based on the gross proceeds received from the sale of minerals less the cost of smelting, refining, freight and other related costs. ore – a naturally occurring rock or material from which economic minerals can be extracted at a profit

ounce or oz. - a troy ounce or 20 pennyweights or 480 grains or 31.103 grams.

opt – troy ounces per ton

placer: A place where gold is obtained by washing; an alluvial or glacial deposit, as of sand or gravel, containing particles of gold or other valuable minerals including gemstones.

probable reserve - the economically mineable part of an indicated, and in some circumstances a measured resource demonstrated by at least a preliminary feasibility study. This study must include adequate information on mining, processing, metallurgical, economic, and other relevant factors that demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that economic extraction can be justified.

prospect – an area prospective for economic minerals based on geological, geophysical, geochemical and other criteria

proven reserve means the economically mineable part of a measured resource demonstrated by at least a

- 5 -


preliminary feasibility study. This study must include adequate information on mining, processing, metallurgical, economic, and other relevant factors that demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that economic extraction is justified.

reserve: That part of a mineral deposit which could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination.

reverse circulation drill – a large machine that produces a continuous chip sample of the rock or material being drilled

skarn: a finegrained metamorphic rock that is usually coloured green or red, ocassionally grey, black, brown or white. It forms through thermal metamorphism as the mineralogical, chemical and crystallographic changes in a solid-state rock, i.e. without melting, in response to new conditions of pressure and/or temperature, and/or introduction of fluids.

Stockwork: Small veins of mineralization that have so penetrated a rock mass that the whole rock mass can be considered mineralized

ton - short ton (2,000 pounds).

tonne - metric tonne (2,204.6 pounds).

trenching – the surface excavation of a linear trench to expose mineralization for sampling

vein – a tabular body of rock typically of narrow thickness and often mineralized occupying a fault, shear, fissure or fracture crosscutting another pre-existing rock

For ease of reference, the following conversion factors are provided:

1 mile  =  1.609  kilometres  2,204  pounds  =  1 tonne 
1 yard  =  0.9144 meter  2,000  pounds/1 short ton  =  0.907 tonne 
1 acre  =  0.405  hectare  1 troy ounce  =  31.103 grams 

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the “Registrant” or the “Company” or “Linux” refer to Linux Gold Corp. All monetary figures are in terms of United States dollars unless otherwise indicated.

This Form 20-F is being filed as an annual report under the Exchange Act, and accordingly, the information called for in Item 3.C is not required.

D.            RISK FACTORS

The occurrence of any of the following risks could hurt our business, financial condition or results of operations. In such case, the trading price of our shares could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. Other risks and uncertainties not now known to us or that we think are immaterial may also impair our business.

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

Our Limited and Changing Operating History. We initially focused the business of the Company on natural resource development. We changed direction becoming involved in the information technology industry to take advantage of the booming technology sector and the declining precious metals markets. We were not successful in that industry segment. We have returned our focus on mining and exploration.

Financing Risks. There is no assurance that we will be able to secure the financing necessary to explore, develop and produce our mineral properties.

We do not presently have sufficient financial resources or operating cash-flow to undertake solely all of our planned exploration and development programs. The development of our properties may therefore depend on obtaining a joint venture partners, and on our ability to obtain additional required financing.

- 9 -

There is no assurance we will be successful in obtaining the required financing, the lack of which could result in the loss or substantial dilution of our interests (as existing or as proposed to be acquired) in our properties as disclosed herein. In addition, we have no experience in developing mining properties into production and its ability to do so will be dependent upon securing the services of appropriately experienced personnel or entering into agreements with other major mining companies which can provide such expertise.

As noted in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2005 we have incurred significant operating losses and have an accumulated deficit of $8,393,078 at February 28, 2005. Furthermore, we had working capital deficit of $98,204 as at February 28, 2005, which is not sufficient to achieve our planned business objectives. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on continued financial support from our shareholders and other related parties, the ability of the Registrant to raise equity financing, and the attainment of profitable operations, external financings and further share issuances to meet our liabilities as they become payable.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on continued financial support from our shareholders and other related parties, our ability to raise equity capital financing, and the attainment of profitable operations, external financings and further share issuance to satisfy working capital and operating needs. The auditors’ report on the February 28, 2005 consolidated financial statements include additional comments for U.S. readers that states that conditions exist that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Significant Losses for the Foreseeable Future. We expect to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future and cannot be certain when or if we will achieve profitability. Failure to become and remain profitable will adversely affect the value of our Common Shares and our ability to raise capital and continue operations.

Volatility of The Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTC BB”) may adversely affect the price of the Common Stock. Certain stocks listed on the OTC BB have recently experienced significant price and volume fluctuations and decreases which have adversely affected the market price of our and other stocks listed on the OTC BB without any regard to the underlying fundamentals of such stocks. These broad market fluctuations, which may occur in the future may continue to adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock.

We do not expect to pay cash dividends. We intend to retain any future earnings to finance our business and operations and any future growth. Therefore, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Potential lack of attractive investment targets. Continued volatility of stock prices on the OTC BB may have a material adverse effect on our ability to raise capital on the OTC BB or by private investment, and the price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially.

Other Factors. Our areas of business may be affected from time to time by such matters as changes in general economic conditions, changes in laws and regulations, taxes, tax laws, prices and costs, and other factors of a general nature which may have an adverse effect on our business.

Conflict of Interest. Some of our current officers and directors have other unrelated full-time positions or part-time employment. Some officers and directors will be available to participate in management decisions on a part-time or as-needed basis only. Our management may devote its time to other companies or projects which may compete directly or indirectly with us.

- 10 -


A limited number of shareholders will collectively continue to own a majority of our common shares.

A limited number of shareholders will collectively continue to own a majority of our common shares after this offering and may act, or prevent corporate actions, to the detriment of other shareholders. Our principal shareholders, including entities affiliated with members of our management team, will own more than 13.6% of our outstanding common shares. Accordingly, these shareholders may, if they act together, exercise significant influence over all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of a majority of the directors and the determination of significant corporate actions after this offering. This concentration could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control that could be otherwise beneficial to our shareholders.

U.S. Investors May Not Be Able To Enforce Their Civil Liabilities Against Us or Our Directors, Controlling Persons and Officers. We are organized under the laws of Canada. All of our directors, controlling persons and officers are residents of Canada and all or a substantial portion of their assets and substantially all of our assets are located outside of the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for U.S. holders of our common shares to effect service of process on these persons within the United States or to realize in the United States upon judgments rendered against them. In addition, you should not assume that the courts of Canada (i) would enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions against us or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws or other laws of the United States, or (ii) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against us or such persons predicated upon the U.S. federal securities laws or other laws of the United States.

However, U.S. laws would generally be enforced by a Canadian court provided that those laws are not contrary to Canadian public policy, are not foreign penal laws or laws that deal with taxation or the taking of property by a foreign government and provided they are in compliance with applicable Canadian legislation regarding the limitation of actions. Also, a judgment obtained in a U.S. court would generally be recognized by a Canadian court except, for example:

  -
where the U.S. court where the judgment was rendered had no jurisdiction according to applicable Canadian law;
     
  -
the judgment was subject to ordinary remedy (appeal, judicial review and any other judicial proceeding which renders the judgment not final, or enforceable under the laws of the applicable state) or not final, conclusive or enforceable under the laws of the applicable state;
     
  -
the judgment was obtained by fraud or in any manner contrary to natural justice or rendered in contravention of fundamental principles of procedure;
     
  -
a dispute between the same parties, based on the same subject matter has given rise to a judgment rendered in a Canadian court or has been decided in a third country and the judgment meets the necessary conditions for recognition in a Canadian court;
     
  -
the outcome of the judgment of the U.S. court was inconsistent with Canadian public policy;
     
  -
the judgment enforces obligations arising from foreign penal laws or laws that deal with taxation or the taking of property by a foreign government; or
     
  -
there has not been compliance with applicable Canadian law dealing with the limitation of actions.

Changes to Economic Policies in China. We are currently exploring our property in China. We could be adversely affected if China changes its economic policies. As part of its economic reform, China has designated certain areas as Special Economic Zones. Foreign enterprises in these areas benefit from greater economic autonomy and more favorable tax treatment than enterprises in other parts of China. Changes in the policies or laws governing Special Economic Zones could have a material adverse effect

- 11 -

on us. Moreover, economic reforms and growth in China have been more successful in certain provinces than others, and the continuation or increase of these disparities could affect the political or social stability of China.

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO THE NATURAL RESOURCE INDUSTRY

Exploration and Development Risks. There is no assurance given by the Company that our exploration and development programs and properties will result in the discovery, development or production of a commercially viable ore body. The business of exploration for minerals and mining involves a high degree of risk. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. At present, none of the Registrant’s properties have defined ore bodies with reserves and resources, and the proposed exploration programs are an exploratory search for ore. There is no assurance that our mineral exploration and development activities will result in any discoveries of bodies of commercial ore. Unusual or unexpected geological structures or formations, fires, power outages, labour disruptions, floods, explosions, cave-ins, land slides and the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labour are other risks involved in the operation of mines and the conduct of exploration programs. We have relied and may continue to rely upon consultants and others for construction and operating expertise. The economics of developing gold and other mineral properties are affected by many factors including capital and operating costs, variations of the grade of ore mined, fluctuating mineral markets, costs of processing equipment and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. Depending on the price of gold or other minerals produced, we may determine that it is impractical to commence or continue commercial production. Substantial expenditures are required to establish reserves through drilling, to develop metallurgical processes to extract metal from ore and to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining. No assurance can be given that funds required for development can be obtained on a timely basis. The marketability of any minerals acquired or discovered may be affected by numerous factors which are beyond our control and which cannot be accurately foreseen or predicted, such as market fluctuations, the global marketing conditions for precious and base metals, the proximity and capacity of milling facilities, mineral markets and processing equipment, and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting minerals and environmental protection.

Estimates of Mineral Deposits. There is no assurance that any estimates of mineral deposits herein will not change. Although all figures with respect to the size and grade of mineralized deposits included herein have been carefully prepared by the Company, or, in some instances have been prepared, reviewed or verified by independent mining experts, these amounts are estimates only and no assurance can be given that any identified mineralized deposit will ever qualify as a commercially viable mineable ore body that can be legally and economically exploited.

Mineral Prices. There is no assurance that mineral prices will not change. The mining industry is competitive and mineral prices fluctuate so that there is no assurance, even if commercial quantities of a mineral resource are discovered, that a profitable market will exist for the sale of same.

Title Opinions. The existence of title opinions should not be construed to suggest that we have good and marketable title to all of our properties. We follow the usual industry practice in obtaining title opinions with respect to our lands. No examination has been made of the ground to determine if any of our mineral claims have been staked or assessment work carried out.

Regulatory Approvals. Our operations require the procurement of numerous permits and compliance with an extensive number of codes and regulations. Mining, exploration and exploitation permits are required. While we believe that all requirements in this regard have been met, failure to comply with regulatory requirements

- 12 -

could result in permits being withdrawn or suspended. Further, changes in these regulations or in their application may adversely affect our operations.

Environmental Issues. We must comply with environmental laws and regulations. There can be no assurance that violations will not occur. In the event of a future violation of environmental laws we could be held liable for damages and for the costs of remedial actions. Environmental laws could become more stringent over time imposing greater compliance costs and increasing risks and penalties associated with a violation.

Third Party Reliance. Our rights to acquire interests in certain mineral properties have been granted by third parties who themselves hold only an option to acquire such properties. As a result, we may have no direct contractual relationship with the underlying property holder.

UNCERTAINTIES AND RISKS RELATING TO COMMON SHARES

There is only a limited public market for our common shares on the OTC Bulletin Board and that market is extremely volatile. There is only a limited public market for our common shares on the OTC Bulletin Board, and there is a risk that that a broader or more active public trading market for our common shares will never develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will not be sustained.

The market price for the common shares on the OTC Bulletin Board has been and we anticipate will continue to be extremely volatile and subject to significant price and volume fluctuations in response to a variety of external and internal factors. This is especially true with respect to emerging companies such as ours. Examples of external factors, which can generally be described as factors that are unrelated to the operating performance or financial condition of any particular company, include changes in interest rates and worldwide economic and market conditions, as well as changes in industry conditions, such as changes in oil and natural gas prices, oil and natural gas inventory levels, regulatory and environment rules, and announcements of technology innovations or new products by other companies. Examples of internal factors, which can generally be described as factors that are directly related to our consolidated financial condition or results of operations, would include release of reports by securities analysts and announcements we may make from time-to-time relative to our operating performance, drilling results, advances in technology or other business developments.

Because we have a limited operating history and no profits to date, the market price for the common shares is more volatile than that of a seasoned issuer. Changes in the market price of the common shares, for example, may have no connection with our operating results or prospects. No predictions or projections can be made as to what the prevailing market price for the common shares will be at any time, or as to what effect, if any, that the sale of shares or the availability of common shares for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price.

You will be subject to the penny stock rules to the extent our stock price on the OTC Bulletin Board is less

Than $5.00. Since the common shares are not listed on a national stock exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ Market within the United States, trading in the common shares on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board is subject, to the extent the market price for the common shares is less than $5.00 per share, to a number of regulations known as the "penny stock rules". The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, to provide the customer with additional information including current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account, and to make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. To the extent these requirements may be applicable they will reduce the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the common shares and may severely and adversely affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell the common shares.

You should not expect to receive dividends. We have never paid any cash dividends on shares of our capital stock, and we do not anticipate that we will pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Our current business plan is to retain any future earnings to finance the expansion of our business. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors, and will be dependent upon our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and other factors as our board of directors may deem relevant at that time.

Our right to issue additional capital stock at any time could have an adverse effect on your proportionate ownership and voting rights. We are authorized under our Articles of Incorporation to issue 200,000,000 common shares. Subject to compliance with applicable corporate and securities laws, we may issue these shares under such circumstances and in such manner and at such times, prices, amounts and purposes as our board of directors may, in their discretion, determine to be necessary and appropriate. Your proportionate ownership and voting rights as a common shareholder could be adversely affected by the issuance of additional common shares, including a substantial dilution in your net tangible book value per share.

ITEM 4.            INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A.            HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT

The Company was incorporated on February 27, 1979 under a perpetual charter pursuant to the British Columbia Company Act by registration of its Memorandum and Articles and was extraprovincially registered in the Province of Alberta on October 12, 1995 under the name Flame Petro-Minerals Corp. At an extraordinary general meeting held on March 15, 2000, our shareholders approved the change of name of the Company from Flame Petro-Minerals Corp. to LinuxWizardry Systems, Inc, which name change was effected on March 21, 2000. At our annual meeting of shareholders on February 20, 2003, our shareholders approved the change of name of the Company from LinuxWizardry Systems, Inc. to Linux Gold Corp., which name change was effected March 18, 2003. Our authorized capital consists of 200,000,000 Common Shares without par value. Of these, 64,951,523 shares were issued and outstanding as of February 28, 2005 and 64,951,523 shares were issued and outstanding as of the date of this Form 20-F. Our head office is located at #1103 -11871 Horseshoe Way, Richmond, B.C., V7A 5H5.

On February 20, 2003 we held a shareholders meeting at which our shareholders voted to change our name from LinuxWizardry Systems, Inc. to Linux Gold Corp. and obtained a new OTC BB trading symbol LNXGF. We believe our new name, Linux Gold Corp. more closely represents our true business activities.

On March 29, 2004, the new British Columbia Business Corporations Act (the "BCA") came into force in British Columbia and replaced the former British Columbia Company Act (“Former Act”) , which is the statute under which we were previously governed. Under the BCA, we have two years within which to transition ("Transition") under the new statute. In accordance with the BCA, we cannot amend our Articles or Notice of Articles until the Transition to the BCA is completed. We filed a transition application with the Registrar of Companies British Columbia and completed the Transition on June 11, 2004.

Concurrent with the completion of the Transition, we were required in accordance with the BCA to incorporate certain provisions known as the "Pre-Existing Company Provisions" (the "Pre-Existing Company Provisions") into our Notice of Articles, which replaced the existing Memorandum . The Company is a “pre-existing company” under the BCA (that is, a company in existence at the time the BCA came into force). The Pre-Existing Company Provisions provide our company with certain default provisions in case certain provisions which are required to be included in the Articles under the BCA are not included in our Articles.

- 14 -


We filed our Notice of Articles with the Registrar of Companies which contains basic information relating to the Company, including our name, the particulars of the directors and the authorized capital. This was a mandatory requirement for transition to the BCA.

On August 16, 2004, at the Annual General Meeting of shareholders, our shareholders passed a special resolution that the Notice of Articles, filed September 15, 2005, be altered to remove the Pre-existing Company Provisions set forth in Part 16 of the Regulations to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia); and delete and replace our Articles in their entirety and no longer apply to Linux Gold Corp. The New Articles, among other things, incorporate and amend certain of the information required by the Pre-Existing Company Provisions.

Our Incorporation Number is BC0187279. Our Articles do not restrict the nature of the business that may be carried on by the Company.

Since our inception and during the three fiscal years ending in February 2005, we had been involved in oil and gas exploration/production and mineral property exploration. We have investigated several mineral properties in Canada, the United States, China and Chile.

We also own a 1.277% net working interest in an oil well located in Fayette County, Texas. To date, we have received no revenues from our mining property activities, and have received negligible net revenues after operating costs from our interest in the Fayette County oil well during the past five fiscal years. As a result, we wrote off our interest in the oil well located in Fayette County.

We have no current plans to pursue further activities in either the oil or gas business.

Our current plans are to joint venture and explore our mineral properties in Northern B.C., Alaska and China. The Company has acquired a 100% interest in the TY and ORO properties in B.C. and has a 50% interest in the Fish Creek property in Alaska, which is optioned to Teryl Resources Corp., and an option on a private company, which has an option to earn up to 85% of a mining property in Hebei Province, China.

We are currently in the exploration stage and equity financing is required to continue exploration work on our mineral claims. As a result of the uncertainty that is typical in an explorative company there is doubt about our ability to continue as going concern as ultimate success will be based on securing adequate equity financing and/or the determination of economically recoverable mineral reserves on its mineral property claims.

B.            BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Nature of the Company’s Operations

Mineral Properties

Fish Creek Claims, Alaska

We currently own a 50% joint venture interest in 30 mining claims known as the Fish Creek Prospect, located in the Fairbanks Mining Division in Alaska. These claims are subject to an option agreement with Teryl Resources Corp. Teryl Resources Corp. may purchase the 5% net royalty for $500,000 U.S. within 1 year after production on a 25% working interest. Teryl also agrees to expend a minimum of $500,000 U.S. after three years from the date of the agreement.

The Fish Creek claims are adjacent to the Teryl/Kinross joint venture Gil claims. After five years of intensive exploration on the Gil claim group the joint venture has been reported to contain a drill indicated/inferred gold deposit of 10,000,000 tons of .04 gold per ton (400,000 ounces au).

- 15 -

In September 2002, we received confirmation of an approved mining lease. The main advantage of the Fairbanks, Alaska mining lease is that any past or future claim disputes have been eliminated. This mining lease clearly delineates our 30 claims, which were previously overstaked.

On November 4, 2002, we amended the March 5, 2002 agreement with Teryl Resources Corp. We agreed that in consideration for receiving a mining license which was not disclosed to us at the time of the March 5, 2002 agreement, both parties agreed to grant Linux a back in working interest for a 25% interest in the mining lease after Teryl completes the US$500,000 expenditures.

In February 2003, we announced that the exploration permit had been submitted to the Alaska Department of Mines to drill the Fish Creek Claims, and that Teryl Resources Corp. had commenced drilling on the Fish Creek Claims to test several magnetic anomalies for a potential lode and placer gold deposit.

The drill fence planned to extend NW-SE approximately parallel to Too Much Gold Creek and consist of 6 drill holes to an estimated depth of 200 feet. The current budget allowed an additional 300 feet of drilling as needed to deepen planned holes or drill additional holes. The targets selected tested for both lode and placer gold mineralization.

At least one hole targeted a coincident magnetic high on the left limit bench of Fish Creek opposite the mouth of Too Much Gold Creek in an area where previous drilling indicated $10/yd3 values (gold price used unknown). All of the holes that intersect gravel will be tested for alluvial gold as well as lode gold.

The second target to be tested was the potential for skarn-hosted gold-arsenic-bismuth mineralization similar to that on the adjacent Gil claims. Once each hole had reached the gravel-bedrock interface, drilling extended 50 to 100 feet into bedrock to determine its potential for lode mineralization. The rig geologist was on-site full-time to make this appropriate determinations.

Samples were collected on five-foot centers, bagged on-site and shipped directly to XRAL Laboratories’ sample preparation facility in Fairbanks, Alaska. All samples were analyzed for gold via fire assay techniques plus a multi-element suite via ICP-MS methods.

On March 19, 2003 we announced the completion of the Fish Creek reverse circulation drilling program. A total of five holes were drilled to test several magnetic anomalies for potential placer and lode gold mineralization. Hard rock samples were submitted to Chemex Labs, in Fairbanks, Alaska, for assays and the placer samples were bagged and stored in our warehouse awaiting warmer weather to process them. Additional core drilling will be recommended on the Phase II exploration program based on favorable results from the current drilling program.

A ground magnetic survey was completed on the Fish Creek property on November 20, 2003 on the right limit (east) side of Fish Creek Valley, approximately 600 – 700 feet down-valley from the toe of the Fort Knox mine fresh water supply dam. Extremely high grade gold placer accumulations were encountered in a narrow right-limit channel during excavation of the Fort Knox mine fresh water dam site but their extent and grade downstream on the Fish Creek property has never been explored. A two-person crew, consisting of James Munsell, from Avalon Development and equipment operator, Kerry Adler from On-Line Exploration Services, Inc. conducted the survey. This was an orientation survey to test the right limit bench for a suspected buried placer gold-bearing channel east of Fish Creek. Surveys of this type have been successful in locating elevated magnetic field intensities associated with the heavy, magnetic mineral concentrations often associated with placer gold accumulations. The field survey consisted of two lines with 200-foot line spacing and 10-foot station spacing, which appears to provide sufficient detail to extrapolate magnetic data between lines. Total field and vertical gradient magnetic data have a good correlation, suggestive of adequate base station data. Signatures from the two traverses are interpreted to cross five features, of which three have the possibility of being associated with alluvial concentrations of various characteristics.

- 16 -

The two anomalies recommended for physical testing are those indicative of alluvial heavy magnetic mineral concentration encountered on the west side of Lines 100N and 300N, just east of Fish Creek, and the strong anomaly on the eastern extent of Line 300N. Depth estimates for these targets, are generally 8 to 12 feet. Avalon Development, Teryl’s Consultant has recommended a program of additional ground magnetics followed by trenching and/or large-diameter auger drilling to evaluate the two most promising alluvial gold targets in early 2004.

In May, 2004 we commenced a closely spaced magnetic survey over the previous magnetic targets that were discovered last winter. The magnetic survey located two anomalies indicative of a potential buried placer gold bearing channel. Extremely high-grade placer gold was encountered during the excavation of the Fort Knox mine fresh water dam, immediately upstream of the Fish Creek property.

Upon completion of the magnetic data, large diameter auger drilling will take place to top off the bedrock to determine the grade and extent of placer gold in the channel. The secondary goal is to assay bedrock samples to determine if significant lode gold is present in the bedrock areas drilled.

On July 12, 2004 we announced that the drilling permit has been approved by the State of Alaska exploration division, on the Fish Creek property. The Company plans to drill up to 25 vertical eight inch diameter holes, on two lines, to explore the potential Fish Creek placer gold paystreak. Each line will be composed of 10 to 15 drill holes spaced 50 to 200 feet apart, and from 45 to 75 feet deep, to test two anomalies located last year by a magnetic survey. The survey located two anomalies indicative of a potential buried placer gold bearing channel, extremely high-grade placer gold was encountered during the excavation of the Fort Knox mine fresh water dam, immediately upstream of the Fish Creek property.

In addition to placer drilling, it is planned to drill up to 40 auger holes on a 200 feet grid and drill two vertical five inch holes up to 300 feet deep with the reverse circulation drilling rig along the east flank of Fish Creek valley to explore the mineral potential of an intrusive and lithology of bedrock.

According to our geologist, the goal of the drilling is to establish a tight cross section of the potential Fish Creek paystreak with important data regarding the location and value of the placer and the lode ore body.

In September 2004, we announced that drilling has commenced on the Fish Creek Gold Target. The dual targets to drill are the placer target and the intrusive target, with the objective to test the lithology and to analyze for concentrations of precious/base metals. The Company will drill 25 vertical eight-inch diameter holes on two lines to explore the potential Fish Creek placer gold paystreak, and to test the two anomalies located last year by a magnetic survey.

Drilling was completed on October 16, 2004. A total of 22 R/C holes were completed of which 20 were short holes to test the placer and lode targets and 2 holes were drilled to test a potential intrusive target. Assay results are pending.

In December 2004, we announced initial drilling results on the Fish Creek Gold Target in the Fairbanks District, Alaska. A total of twenty (20) placer holes – shallow, larger-diameter RC holes - were completed and two (2) deeper RC holes were drilled to test an intrusive target.

Auger drilling near Odden Creek, conducted on July 13, 2004 to test “C” soil geochemistry, resulted in several weak metal anomalies. One hole (T04A001) which penetrated the intrusive target and several surrounding holes (T04A002, -003, &-004) were elevated in silver, lead, arsenic and bismuth. Another hole (T04A010) was anomalous in zinc, arsenic, copper, iron, sulphur and tungsten, suggesting a potential sulphide deposit.

Jeff Keener, a leading placer geologist, reports that several lode targets were discovered during the placer program.

For 2005, to elevate the upper part of the paystreak, the partners plan to drill four lines of closely spaced holes 50 to 100 feet apart on lines spaced 500 to 1,000 feet apart. The lower part of the paystreak can be developed to

- 17 -

measured resource status by drilling two lines of closely spaced holes on lines spaced 2,000 feet apart. After the results of the proposed drilling are known a preliminary feasibility study may be performed to address economic and mining factors that will affect the economic extraction of placer gold.

Neither of the two lode holes drilled in 2004 on Odden Creek intercepted economic grades of gold. Hole T04RC01 terminated in mineralized, quartz-veined, graphitic schist assaying small amounts of gold. For 2005, it is recommended to drill four or more 300-ft RC holes, based on intrusive targets located during placer exploration this year.

The technical disclosure for the Fish Creek Property is prepared under the supervision of Curt Freeman, a qualified person as that term is defined in NI 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

TY Gold Property, Bralorne Mining District, British Columbia

On May 2, 2003 we announced that we had acquired an option to a 100% interest in 21 units in the Bralorne/Lillooet mining division in British Columbia, called the TY Gold Property. We will pay $30,000 over three years and 150,000 common shares. The TY Gold Property is subject to a 2% net smelter interest (NSR). We have an option to purchase each 1% NSR for $1,000,000 prior to production. The TY Gold Property is adjacent to our newly acquired ORO Property and is located 12 miles from the Bralorne Pioneer Gold Mine, which since its discovery has produced 4.1 million ounces of gold. We now have a total of 41 units in the Bralorne area.

Previous drilling completed on the TY Gold Property on the Beta zone encountered values up to 5 feet of 5.86 oz/ton silver and 1.129 oz ton gold. Additional drilling has been recommended by Sampson Engineering Inc. to further explore the Beta zone.

In June 2003, we completed laying 1,800 feet of grid lines over the Beta Gold zone on its TY Gold prospect, in preparation for a drill program. Previous drilling on the Beta Gold zone encountered significant gold grades, with the highest value in hole 87-8, which encountered 15 feet of 0.93 ounces of gold per ton with 3.5 ounces of silver from 65-80 feet from the surface (a five foot intersection of 1.7 ounces of gold per ton is included in this intersection). Hole 87-9 encountered 10 feet of 0.69 ounces per ton gold including a five-foot intersection of 1.13 ounces of gold per ton.

The Beta Gold zone remains open down dip to the west and the 1,800 foot grid crosses over two additional known gold zones. A proposed phase I drill program will be initiated to confirm previous drill results completed in 1987, in a search for a bulk tonnage gold deposit.

In August 2003, we completed a phase I drill program on its TY gold property located in the Bralorne Mining District, British Columbia. Four diamond drill holes of approximately 200 feet each in length were drilled in the Beta Gold zone to confirm the high-grade results of drilling in 1987.

All four holes drilled have encountered extensive stockwork zones and listwanite alteration, favourable geology for hosting Bralorne-type gold deposits. The core will be split and assayed for gold and silver at Acme Labs in Vancouver, Canada. Soil sampling is also underway to ascertain the strike length and surface extent of the Beta zone. Based on drill results, a phase II, 3,000 foot diamond drilling program will be recommended to explore the western side of the Beta zone.

Previous drilling on the Beta Gold zone yielded significant gold and silver values. The best results were from hole 87-8, which intersected 15 feet of 0.93 ounces of gold per ton and 3.5 ounces of silver per ton between 65-80 feet from the surface – including a five foot intersection of 1.70 oz/ton gold and 5.86 oz/ton silver. Hole 87-9 hit ten feet of 0.69 ounces per ton gold including a five-foot intersection of 1.13 ounces of gold per ton for ten feet.

The Beta Gold zone remains open down dip to the west and is flanked by two other known gold zones.

- 18 -

According to a 1987 report by Sampson Engineering, the Beta zone may host a hanging wall and footwall vein, which is typical of gold systems in the Bralorne District and many other vein-type gold camps such as the Motherlode system of California. The TY gold property is located 12 miles north of the Bralorne Pioneer Mine, which since its discovery produced 4.1 million ounces of gold, and was one of the richest gold mines in Western Canada.

On September 2, 2003, we announced that additional units had been staked surrounding the Company’s TY Gold property and in several strategic locations in the Bralorne Mining District. Four diamond drill holes have been completed on the TY Gold property to confirm the high-grade results. The previous drilling results yielded up to 0.93 ounces of gold per ton over 15 feet. Results from the 4 holes are expected in early September.

The additional claims are located 12 miles north of the Bralorne Pioneer Mine, which since its discovery produced 4.1 million ounces of gold and was one of the richest gold mines in Western Canada.

In September 2003, we continued a second phase of drilling on the TY Gold property. The purpose of the program is to confirm high-grade results encountered by previous drilling on the property, which produced results up to 0.93 ounces of gold per ton over 15 feet, including a 5-foot section of 1.7 ounces of gold per ton.

On November 6, 2003, we announced that diamond drilling results from Holes 3TD-1 through 6 on the TY Gold property in the Goldbridge area, BC. Gold values were mixed though generally low-grade with slightly elevated lead/zinc values over minor intervals. The highest gold value seen (1.48 g/t – hole 3TD 1:84’-89’) occurred within a highly stockworked, altered volcanic breccia.

While favourable gold indicators such as listwanite alteration, abundant stockworking and arsenopyrite mineralization were frequently encountered gold values were somewhat lower than anticipated. The drill programme is to be extended for additional holes in an attempt to intercept higher-grade, known mineralization encountered by previous drilling in the 1980’s.

The purpose of the drilling program is to confirm high-grade gold results, which produced results up to 0.93 ounces of gold per ton on 15 feet, including a 5-foot section of gold per ton.

We will continue exploration work on the TY Gold property and will meet the terms of the acquisition agreement unless the Company decides to not continue due to poor results or economic reasons.

Duna Choapa Norte Orebody and La Barca Orebody, Chile

On April 28, 2003, we announced that the Company acquired a non-exclusive option to participate in a 60% interest in two heavy mineral/gold sands deposits in Chile, S.A., subject to a 5% net profit interest. The terms are an option payment of US$600,000 and financing a pilot mill for estimated costs of US$2,000,000. We also agreed to fund a complete 7,200 ton per day production plant within 12 months from the production date of the prototype mill. The terms and conditions are subject to all regulatory approvals, financing and a favourable due diligence carried out by Linux Gold Corp. The option agreement has been terminated due to expiration of the option agreement date.

ORO Property, Lillooet Mining Division, British Columbia

In April 2003, we acquired a 100% interest in 20 mineral claim units, subject to a 2% net smelter return, called the ORO property in the Lillooet Mining Division, BC, for $10,000 and 100,000 shares of Linux Gold Corp. We have the option to purchase back each 1% NSR return for $1,000,000 prior to production. These claims are located 12 miles from the Bralorne Pioneer Gold Mine, which since its discovery, has produced 4.1 million ounces of gold worth some $1.5 billion at today’s gold prices. Several EM–VLF conductive zones have been located on the ORO property. The magnetic survey shows the entire property is underlain with

- 19 -

sediments and volcanics, which are important in the placement of gold bearing quartz veins, according to the geophysical report surveyed and written by Columbia Airborne Geophysical Services.

The Company has met the terms and conditions of the acquisition agreement by issuing 25,000 of its shares to the vendor during the nine months ended November 30, 2004. This was the final requirement of the purchase agreement. The vendor retains a 2% net smelter return interest.

BLN Gold Property, Hebei Province, China

On January 20, 2004 the Company acquired an option to purchase 100% of the shares of Ginyen Recovery Inc. Ginyen Recovery Inc. has an 85% interest in a co-operative joint venture with Bo Luo Neo Wang Yuan Gold Mine Company (“BLN Gold”) of Heibei Province, China. BLN Gold holds an operational gold recovery mill; option to acquire the and license to operate all existing small mines in the district; the option to explore, develop and produce gold and silver in the district and options to expand to other districts. The Company can earn a 100% interest in the private company, subject to a 5% net profits interest, by issuing 200,000 shares of Linux Gold Corp. in four stages and paying $50,000 cash, and expending a total of $500,000 in a three-phase work program.

We entered into a consulting agreement with Jim Yin, Ph.D., consulting geologist. Mr. Yin completed his Ph.D. of Science at the China University of Geosciences, Beijing, China. Mr. Yin has previously supervised four joint ventures as the project representative for mining exploration in China and completed a preliminary investigation report on the Linux Gold optioned property in December 2002.

In April, 2004 we announced assay results indicating high grade gold and silver on the Tuo Dao Gou gold zone of the Bo Luo Nuo property in China. The Tuo Dao Gou gold zone reported 5.5 ounces of gold per ton with 9 ounces of silver by Acme Analytical Laboratories on April 1, 2004. The Lan Ying has the highest results, with one sample which assayed 11.75 ounces of gold and 5.75 ounces of silver per ton. The average grade from 15 samples on the Ge Di Gou was 23.36 grams per ton. The third important zone is the Tuo Dao Gou, which was a gold producer zone with stable higher grade gold. The average grade from 18 samples was 11.58 grams per ton gold.

The visit to the Hebei Province was supervised by Geologist Jim Yin, Ph.D. on behalf of the Company. Dr. Yin directed the sampling of the major known gold zones and platinum, palladium properties. A total of 118 samples were collected from 12 different known gold zones for gold and silver and 32 samples were collected from the platinum, palladium deposit.

Dr. Jim Yin recommends the gold zones/veins mentioned in the above should be the main targets to follow up in the next exploration program to develop economic high grade gold reserves to feed the 50 ton a day mill. We expect to announce an exploration program this summer.

On June 9, 2004 we announced that Bisheng Liu, of Beijing, China, has been appointed Vice President Corporate Administrator for our gold mining interests in the Peoples Republic of China. Mr. Bisheng is a resident of Beijing, the Peoples Republic of China, educated in the Tianjin’s Institute of Foreign Trade and received a Bachelor of Economics degree in China. Previous jobs included a position with the Ministry of Foreign Trade in Beijing and also work with the Chinese Embassy in Singapore for a three year period as Third Secretary for the commercial office. Mr. Liu is currently working as project manager with Cirque Du Soleil. The board of directors is very pleased to have a representative in China, such as Bisheng Liu, which is the fastest growing economy in the world today, and look forward to a successful relationship with our projects in China.

On October 12, 2004 we announced that we had received confirmation of approval for exploration for Wang Yuan Mine, an additional permit for exploration is to be submitted on the nearby Lan Ying Mine. The objective of this year’s exploration program is to develop sufficient gold reserves to feed the 50 ton per day mill, which is located on our optioned property. An exploration program has commenced on the Wang Yuan mine to dewater the mine and commence a sampling program on the known gold zone.

- 20 -


In November 2004, we announced that the exploration license for the Dong Gou Gold Mine has been negotiated by Bisheng Liu, of Beijing, China, our Vice President Corporate Administrator for this project. The terms and conditions are pursuant to the co-operative joint venture company agreement that has an option on mineral exploration rights in Hebei Province, China, covering an area of 161 kilometres.

The Dong Gou Gold Mine consists of 5.12 square kilometres. This area has had three small mines operating in the last seven years, which were mined mainly by hand by the Chinese farmers in the area. One of the mines, the Lan Ying Mine, appears to be the best organized mine in the area. About 90,000 tons of ore has been mined out by hand in the past, at rates of 35 tons of ore per day, grading 11 grams ( of an ounce) of gold per tonne.

The exploration goal for this property, together with the adjacent Wang Yuan Gold Mine, is to develop sufficient economic gold reserves for the 50 ton per day mill, which is on the property. Exploration work has commenced on the Wang Yuan Gold Mine.

In December 2004 we announced that announce that Curt Freeman, senior geologist for Avalon development, has been retained to evaluate and complete a report on the two gold properties in Fengning, Hebei Province, China. The main objective is to identify drill targets, and to prove sufficient economic gold reserves to feed the 50 ton per day pilot mill, which is currently on the property in China.

The sampling program on the Wang Yuan Mine known gold zones has been completed and is being prepared for gold assays. The assays were completed in February 2005.

The term of the license is effective until a production decision is made by the Company.

Description of the Markets in Which the Company Competes

This is no longer applicable due to the discontinuance of the business operations of our wholly-owned subsidiary.

- 22 -


Competition

Significant and increasing competition exists for the limited number of gold acquisition opportunities available in North, South and Central America and elsewhere in the world. As a result of this competition, some of which is with large established mining companies which have greater financial and technical resources than the Registrant, the Registrant may be unable to acquire additional attractive gold mining properties on terms it considers acceptable. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Registrant’s exploration and acquisition programs will yield any new reserves or result in any commercial mining operation.

Seasonality

We believe that there is no seasonality which affects our business.

Availability of Raw Materials

We do not manufacture any products directly.

Marketing Strategy

We do not have any plans for a marketing strategy at this time.

Dependence on Certain Commercial Agreements or Intellectual Property

We do not have any material agreements upon which we are dependent.

Material effects of Government Regulation

Exploration and development activities, require permits from various foreign, federal, state and local governmental authorities. To the best of our knowledge, we are operating in compliance with all applicable environmental regulations.

C.            ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE

For a list of our significant subsidiaries, see “Item 10 – Additional Information – Subsidiary Information”.

D.            PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

We do not own any properties. We currently utilize office space in a commercial business park building located in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada, a suburb of Vancouver. The space is shared with several other companies which share common management. The monthly rent for its portion of this 1,500 square foot space is $500.00. The present facilities are believed to be adequate for meeting our needs for the immediate future. If required in the future, we do not anticipate that we will have any difficulty in obtaining additional space at favorable rates. There are no current plans to purchase or otherwise acquire any properties in the near future.

Since our inception and during the three fiscal years ending in February 2005, we had been involved in oil and gas exploration/production and more recently, mineral property exploration and development.

Fish Creek Claims, Alaska

We currently own a 50% joint venture interest in 30 mining claims known as the Fish Creek Prospect, located in the Fairbanks Mining Division in Alaska. These claims are subject to an option agreement with Teryl Resources Corp. Teryl Resources Corp. may purchase the 5% net royalty for $500,000

- 23 -

U.S. within 1 year after production on a 25% working interest. Teryl also agrees to expend a minimum of $500,000 U.S. after three years from the date of the agreement. Our interest in the Fish Creek Claims is the subject of a technical report dated March 7, 2005, prepared by Curtis J. Freeman of Avalon Development Corp., P.O. Box 80268, Fairbanks, Alaska 99708, a copy of which has been filed with the applicable Canadian regulatory bodies in May 2005 and which is incorporated herein by this reference.

The Fish Creek claims are adjacent to the Teryl/Kinross joint venture Gil claims. After five years of intensive exploration on the Gil claim group the joint venture has been reported to contain a drill indicated/inferred gold deposit of 10,000,000 tons of .04 gold per ton (400,000 ounces au).

In September 2002, we received confirmation of an approved mining lease. The main advantage of the Fairbanks, Alaska mining lease is that any past or future claim disputes have been eliminated. This mining lease clearly delineates our 30 claims, which were previously overstaked.

On November 4, 2002, we amended the March 5, 2002 agreement with Teryl Resources Corp. We agreed that in consideration for receiving a mining license which was not disclosed to us at the time of the March 5, 2002 agreement, both parties agreed to grant Linux a back in working interest for a 25% interest in the mining lease after Teryl completes the US00,000 expenditures.

In February 2003, we announced that the exploration permit had been submitted to the Alaska Department of Mines to drill the Fish Creek Claims, and that Teryl Resources Corp. had commenced drilling on the Fish Creek Claims to test several magnetic anomalies for a potential lode and placer gold deposit.

The drill fence planned to extend NW-SE approximately parallel to Too Much Gold Creek and consist of 6 drill holes to an estimated depth of 200 feet. The current budget allowed an additional 300 feet of drilling as needed to deepen planned holes or drill additional holes. The targets selected tested for both lode and placer gold mineralization.

At least one hole targeted a coincident magnetic high on the left limit bench of Fish Creek opposite the mouth of Too Much Gold Creek in an area where previous drilling indicated $10/yd3 values (gold price used unknown). All of the holes that intersect gravel will be tested for alluvial gold as well as lode gold.

The second target to be tested was the potential for skarn-hosted gold-arsenic-bismuth mineralization similar to that on the adjacent Gil claims. Once each hole had reached the gravel-bedrock interface, drilling extended 50 to 100 feet into bedrock to determine its potential for lode mineralization. The rig geologist was on-site full-time to make this appropriate determinations.

Samples were collected on five-foot centers, bagged on-site and shipped directly to XRAL Laboratories’ sample preparation facility in Fairbanks, Alaska. All samples were analyzed for gold via fire assay techniques plus a multi-element suite via ICP-MS methods.

On March 19, 2003 we announced the completion of the Fish Creek reverse circulation drilling program. A total of five holes were drilled to test several magnetic anomalies for potential placer and lode gold mineralization. Hard rock samples were submitted to Chemex Labs, in Fairbanks, Alaska, for assays and the placer samples were bagged and stored in our warehouse awaiting warmer weather to process them. Additional core drilling will be recommended on the Phase II exploration program based on favorable results from the current drilling program.

Aground magnetic survey was completed on the Fish Creek property on November 20, 2003 on the right limit (east) side of Fish Creek Valley, approximately 600 – 700 feet down-valley from the toe of the Fort Knox mine fresh water supply dam. Extremely high grade gold placer accumulations were encountered in a narrow right-limit channel during excavation of the Fort Knox mine fresh water dam site but their extent and grade

- 24 -

downstream on the Fish Creek property has never been explored. A two-person crew, consisting of James Munsell, from Avalon Development and equipment operator, Kerry Adler from On-Line Exploration Services, Inc. conducted the survey. This was an orientation survey to test the right limit bench for a suspected buried placer gold-bearing channel east of Fish Creek. Surveys of this type have been successful in locating elevated magnetic field intensities associated with the heavy, magnetic mineral concentrations often associated with placer gold accumulations. The field survey consisted of two lines with 200-foot line spacing and 10-foot station spacing, which appears to provide sufficient detail to extrapolate magnetic data between lines. Total field and vertical gradient magnetic data have a good correlation, suggestive of adequate base station data. Signatures from the two traverses are interpreted to cross five features, of which three have the possibility of being associated with alluvial concentrations of various characteristics.

The two anomalies recommended for physical testing are those indicative of alluvial heavy magnetic mineral concentration encountered on the west side of Lines 100N and 300N, just east of Fish Creek, and the strong anomaly on the eastern extent of Line 300N. Depth estimates for these targets, are generally 8 to 12 feet. Avalon Development, Teryl’s Consultant has recommended a program of additional ground magnetics followed by trenching and/or large-diameter auger drilling to evaluate the two most promising alluvial gold targets in early 2004.

In May, 2004 we commenced a closely spaced magnetic survey over the previous magnetic targets that were discovered last winter. The magnetic survey located two anomalies indicative of a potential buried placer gold bearing channel. Extremely high-grade placer gold was encountered during the excavation of the Fort Knox mine fresh water dam, immediately upstream of the Fish Creek property.

Upon completion of the magnetic data, large diameter auger drilling will take place to top off the bedrock to determine the grade and extent of placer gold in the channel. The secondary goal is to assay bedrock samples to determine if significant lode gold is present in the bedrock areas drilled.

On July 12, 2004 we announced that the drilling permit has been approved by the State of Alaska exploration division, on the Fish Creek property. The Company plans to drill up to 25 vertical eight inch diameter holes, on two lines, to explore the potential Fish Creek placer gold paystreak. Each line will be composed of 10 to 15 drill holes spaced 50 to 200 feet apart, and from 45 to 75 feet deep, to test two anomalies located last year by a magnetic survey. The survey located two anomalies indicative of a potential buried placer gold bearing channel, extremely high-grade placer gold was encountered during the excavation of the Fort Knox mine fresh water dam, immediately upstream of the Fish Creek property.

In addition to placer drilling, it is planned to drill up to 40 auger holes on a 200 feet grid and drill two vertical five inch holes up to 300 feet deep with the reverse circulation drilling rig along the east flank of Fish Creek valley to explore the mineral potential of an intrusive and lithology of bedrock.

According to our geologist, the goal of the drilling is to establish a tight cross section of the potential Fish Creek paystreak with important data regarding the location and value of the placer and the lode ore body.

In September 2004, we announced that drilling has commenced on the Fish Creek Gold Target. The dual targets to drill are the placer target and the intrusive target, with the objective to test the lithology and to analyze for concentrations of precious/base metals. The Company will drill 25 vertical eight-inch diameter holes on two lines to explore the potential Fish Creek placer gold paystreak, and to test the two anomalies located last year by a magnetic survey.

Drilling was completed on October 16, 2004. A total of 22 R/C holes were completed of which 20 were short holes to test the placer and lode targets and 2 holes were drilled to test a potential intrusive target. Assay results are pending.

In December 2004, we announced initial drilling results on the Fish Creek Gold Target in the Fairbanks District, Alaska. A total of twenty (20) placer holes – shallow, larger-diameter RC holes - were completed and two (2)

- 25 -

deeper RC holes were drilled to test an intrusive target.

Auger drilling near Odden Creek, conducted on July 13, 2004 to test “C” soil geochemistry, resulted in several weak metal anomalies. One hole (T04A001) which penetrated the intrusive target and several surrounding holes (T04A002, -003, &-004) were elevated in silver, lead, arsenic and bismuth. Another hole (T04A010) was anomalous in zinc, arsenic, copper, iron, sulphur and tungsten, suggesting a potential sulphide deposit.

Jeff Keener, a leading placer geologist, reports that several lode targets were discovered during the placer program.

For 2005, to elevate the upper part of the paystreak, the partners plan to drill four lines of closely spaced holes 50 to 100 feet apart on lines spaced 500 to 1,000 feet apart. The lower part of the paystreak can be developed to measured resource status by drilling two lines of closely spaced holes on lines spaced 2,000 feet apart. After the results of the proposed drilling are known a preliminary feasibility study may be performed to address economic and mining factors that will affect the economic extraction of placer gold.

Neither of the two lode holes drilled in 2004 on Odden Creek intercepted economic grades of gold. Hole T04RC01 terminated in mineralized, quartz-veined, graphitic schist assaying small amounts of gold. For 2005, it is recommended to drill four or more 300-ft RC holes, based on intrusive targets located during placer exploration this year.

The technical disclosure for the Fish Creek Property is prepared under the supervision of Curt Freeman, a qualified person as that term is defined in NI 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

TY Gold Property, Bralorne Mining District, British Columbia

On May 2, 2003 we announced that we had acquired an option to a 100% interest in 21 units in the Bralorne/Lillooet mining division in British Columbia, called the TY Gold Property. We will pay $30,000 over three years and 150,000 common shares. The TY Gold Property is subject to a 2% net smelter interest (NSR). We have an option to purchase each 1% NSR for $1,000,000 prior to production. The TY Gold Property is adjacent to our newly acquired ORO Property and is located 12 miles from the Bralorne Pioneer Gold Mine, which since its discovery has produced 4.1 million ounces of gold. We now have a total of 41 units in the Bralorne area.

Previous drilling completed on the TY Gold Property on the Beta zone encountered values up to 5 feet of 5.86 oz/ton silver and 1.129 oz ton gold. Additional drilling has been recommended by Sampson Engineering Inc. to further explore the Beta zone.

In June 2003, we completed laying 1,800 feet of grid lines over the Beta Gold zone on its TY Gold prospect, in preparation for a drill program. Previous drilling on the Beta Gold zone encountered significant gold grades, with the highest value in hole 87-8, which encountered 15 feet of 0.93 ounces of gold per ton with 3.5 ounces of silver from 65-80 feet from the surface (a five foot intersection of 1.7 ounces of gold per ton is included in this intersection). Hole 87-9 encountered 10 feet of 0.69 ounces per ton gold including a five-foot intersection of 1.13 ounces of gold per ton.

The Beta Gold zone remains open down dip to the west and the 1,800 foot grid crosses over two additional known gold zones. A proposed phase I drill program will be initiated to confirm previous drill results completed in 1987, in a search for a bulk tonnage gold deposit.

In August 2003, we completed a phase I drill program on its TY gold property located in the Bralorne Mining District, British Columbia. Four diamond drill holes of approximately 200 feet each in length were drilled in the Beta Gold zone to confirm the high-grade results of drilling in 1987.

All four holes drilled have encountered extensive stockwork zones and listwanite alteration, favourable geology for hosting Bralorne-type gold deposits. The core will be split and assayed for gold and silver at

- 26 -

Acme Labs in Vancouver, Canada. Soil sampling is also underway to ascertain the strike length and surface extent of the Beta zone. Based on drill results, a phase II, 3,000 foot diamond drilling program will be recommended to explore the western side of the Beta zone.

Previous drilling on the Beta Gold zone yielded significant gold and silver values. The best results were from hole 87-8, which intersected 15 feet of 0.93 ounces of gold per ton and 3.5 ounces of silver per ton between 65-80 feet from the surface – including a five foot intersection of 1.70 oz/ton gold and 5.86 oz/ton silver. Hole 87-9 hit ten feet of 0.69 ounces per ton gold including a five-foot intersection of 1.13 ounces of gold per ton for ten feet.

The Beta Gold zone remains open down dip to the west and is flanked by two other known gold zones. According to a 1987 report by Sampson Engineering, the Beta zone may host a hanging wall and footwall vein, which is typical of gold systems in the Bralorne District and many other vein-type gold camps such as the Motherlode system of California. The TY gold property is located 12 miles north of the Bralorne Pioneer Mine, which since its discovery produced 4.1 million ounces of gold, and was one of the richest gold mines in Western Canada.

On September 2, 2003, we announced that additional units had been staked surrounding the Company’s TY Gold property and in several strategic locations in the Bralorne Mining District. Four diamond drill holes have been completed on the TY Gold property to confirm the high-grade results. The previous drilling results yielded up to 0.93 ounces of gold per ton over 15 feet. Results from the 4 holes are expected in early September.

The additional claims are located 12 miles north of the Bralorne Pioneer Mine, which since its discovery produced 4.1 million ounces of gold and was one of the richest gold mines in Western Canada.

In September 2003, we continued a second phase of drilling on the TY Gold property. The purpose of the program is to confirm high-grade results encountered by previous drilling on the property, which produced results up to 0.93 ounces of gold per ton over 15 feet, including a 5-foot section of 1.7 ounces of gold per ton.

On November 6, 2003, we announced that diamond drilling results from Holes 3TD-1 through 6 on the TY Gold property in the Goldbridge area, BC. Gold values were mixed though generally low-grade with slightly elevated lead/zinc values over minor intervals. The highest gold value seen (1.48 g/t – hole 3TD 1:84’-89’) occurred within a highly stockworked, altered volcanic breccia.

While favourable gold indicators such as listwanite alteration, abundant stockworking and arsenopyrite mineralization were frequently encountered gold values were somewhat lower than anticipated. The drill programme is to be extended for additional holes in an attempt to intercept higher-grade, known mineralization encountered by previous drilling in the 1980’s.

The purpose of the drilling program is to confirm high-grade gold results, which produced results up to 0.93 ounces of gold per ton on 15 feet, including a 5-foot section of gold per ton.

We will continue exploration work on the TY Gold property and will meet the terms of the acquisition agreement unless the Company decides to not continue due to poor results or economic reasons.

Duna Choapa Norte Orebody and La Barca Orebody, Chile

On April 28, 2003, we announced that the Company acquired a non-exclusive option to participate in a 60% interest in two heavy mineral/gold sands deposits in Chile, S.A., subject to a 5% net profit interest. The terms are an option payment of US$600,000 and financing a pilot mill for estimated costs of US$2,000,000. We also agreed to fund a complete 7,200 ton per day production plant within 12 months from the production date of the prototype mill. The terms and conditions are subject to all regulatory approvals, financing and a

- 27 -

favourable due diligence carried out by Linux Gold Corp. The option agreement has been terminated due to expiration of the option agreement date.

ORO Property, Lillooet Mining Division, British Columbia

In April 2003, we acquired a 100% interest in 20 mineral claim units, subject to a 2% net smelter return, called the ORO property in the Lillooet Mining Division, BC, for $10,000 and 100,000 shares of Linux Gold Corp. We have the option to purchase back each 1% NSR return for CAD$1,000,000 prior to production. These claims are located 12 miles from the Bralorne Pioneer Gold Mine, which since its discovery, has produced 4.1 million ounces of gold worth some $1.5 billion at today’s gold prices. Several EM–VLF conductive zones have been located on the ORO property. The magnetic survey shows the entire property is underlain with sediments and volcanics, which are important in the placement of gold bearing quartz veins, according to the geophysical report surveyed and written by Columbia Airborne Geophysical Services.

The Company has met the terms and conditions of the acquisition agreement by issuing 25,000 of its shares to the vendor during the nine months ended November 30, 2004. This was the final requirement of the purchase agreement. The vendor retains a 2% net smelter return interest.

BLN Gold Property, Hebei Province, China

On January 20, 2004 the Company acquired an option to purchase 100% of the shares of Ginyen Recovery Inc. Ginyen Recovery Inc. has an 85% interest in a co-operative joint venture with Bo Luo Neo Wang Yuan Gold Mine Company (“BLN Gold”) of Heibei Province, China. BLN Gold holds an operational gold recovery mill; option to acquire the and license to operate all existing small mines in the district; the option to explore, develop and produce gold and silver in the district and options to expand to other districts. The Company can earn a 100% interest in the private company, subject to a 5% net profits interest, by issuing 200,000 shares of Linux Gold Corp. in four stages and paying $50,000 cash, and expending a total of $500,000 in a three-phase work program.

We entered into a consulting agreement with Jim Yin, Ph.D., consulting geologist. Mr. Yin completed his Ph.D. of Science at the China University of Geosciences, Beijing, China. Mr. Yin has previously supervised four joint ventures as the project representative for mining exploration in China and completed a preliminary investigation report on the Linux Gold optioned property in December 2002.

In April, 2004 we announced assay results indicating high grade gold and silver on the Tuo Dao Gou gold zone of the Company’s Bo Luo Nuo property in China. The Tuo Dao Gou gold zone reported 5.5 ounces of gold per ton with 9 ounces of silver by Acme Analytical Laboratories on April 1, 2004. The Lan Ying has the highest results, with one sample which assayed 11.75 ounces of gold and 5.75 ounces of silver per ton. The average grade from 15 samples on the Ge Di Gou was 23.36 grams per ton. The third important zone is the Tuo Dao Gou, which was a gold producer zone with stable higher grade gold. The average grade from 18 samples was 11.58 grams per ton gold.

The visit to the Hebei Province was supervised by Geologist Jim Yin, Ph.D. on behalf of the Company. Dr. Yin directed the sampling of the major known gold zones and platinum, palladium properties. A total of 118 samples were collected from 12 different known gold zones for gold and silver and 32 samples were collected from the platinum, palladium deposit.

Dr. Jim Yin recommends the gold zones/veins mentioned in the above should be the main targets to follow up in the next exploration program to develop economic high grade gold reserves to feed the 50 ton a day mill. We expect to announce an exploration program this summer.

On June 9, 2004 we announced that Bisheng Liu, of Beijing, China, has been appointed Vice President Corporate Administrator for our gold mining interests in the Peoples Republic of China. Mr. Bisheng is a resident of Beijing, the Peoples Republic of China, educated in the Tianjin’s Institute of Foreign Trade and received a Bachelor of Economics degree in China. Previous jobs included a position with the Ministry of Foreign Trade in Beijing and also work with the Chinese Embassy in Singapore for a three year period as

- 28 -

Third Secretary for the commercial office. Mr. Liu is currently working as project manager with Cirque Du Soleil. The board of directors is very pleased to have a representative in China, such as Bisheng Liu, which is the fastest growing economy in the world today, and look forward to a successful relationship with our projects in China.

On October 12, 2004 we announced that we had received confirmation of approval for exploration for Wang Yuan Mine, an additional permit for exploration is to be submitted on the nearby Lan Ying Mine. The objective of this year’s exploration program is to develop sufficient gold reserves to feed the 50 ton per day mill, which is located on our optioned property. An exploration program has commenced on the Wang Yuan mine to dewater the mine and commence a sampling program on the known gold zone.

In November 2004, we announced that the exploration license for the Dong Gou Gold Mine has been negotiated by Bisheng Liu, of Beijing, China, our Vice President Corporate Administrator for this project. The terms and conditions are pursuant to the co-operative joint venture company agreement that has an option on mineral exploration rights in Hebei Province, China, covering an area of 161 kilometres.

The Dong Gou Gold Mine consists of 5.12 square kilometres. This area has had three small mines operating in the last seven years, which were mined mainly by hand by the Chinese farmers in the area. One of the mines, the Lan Ying Mine, appears to be the best organized mine in the area. About 90,000 tons of ore has been mined out by hand in the past, at rates of 35 tons of ore per day, grading 11 grams ( of an ounce) of gold per tonne.

The exploration goal for this property, together with the adjacent Wang Yuan Gold Mine, is to develop sufficient economic gold reserves for the 50 ton per day mill, which is on the property. Exploration work has commenced on the Wang Yuan Gold Mine.

In December 2004 we announced that announce that Curt Freeman, senior geologist for Avalon development, has been retained to evaluate and complete a report on the two gold properties in Fengning, Hebei Province, China. The main objective is to identify drill targets, and to prove sufficient economic gold reserves to feed the 50 ton per day pilot mill, which is currently on the property in China.

The sampling program on the Wang Yuan Mine known gold zones has been completed and is being prepared for gold assays. The assays were completed in February 2005.

The term of the license is effective until a production decision is made by the Company.

ITEM 5.            OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere herein. The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP.

A.            OPERATING RESULTS

Discontinued Operations

During fiscal 2002, we discontinued the business operations of our wholly-owned subsidiary, LinuxWizardry, Inc.

Continuing Operations

Fiscal Year Ended February 28, 2005 compared to Fiscal year Ended February 28, 2004

Results of Operations

During fiscal 2005, we received no revenues from operations as compared to $nil revenues in 2004.

- 29 -

Administrative expenses in 2005 totaled $659,000 as compared to $354,000 in 2004. The expenses increased from the prior year due to the increased activity of the Company. Office, rent and telephone totaled $200,000 compared to $65,000 in 2004. A significant portion of the increase relates to the increase in advertising and promotion costs of $111,000 in 2005 as compared to $23,000 in 2004, which are included in office, rent and telephone costs. Website hosting costs of $10,000 are also included in 2005, as compared to $nil in 2004. Professional fees totaled $42,000 compared to $28,000 in 2004. We also incurred an imputed interest charge of $35,000 compared to $23,500 in 2004. Imputed interest at 15% was charged to operations based on the advances from related parties and treated as donated capital. This amount increased during 2005 due to the additional advances received in the first three fiscal quarters of 2005, before being paid down in the last fiscal quarter of 2005. Consulting and subcontract expenses increased to $234,000 in 2005 from $174,000 in 2004. This increase was due to the inclusion of stock-based compensation of $100,000 recognized from the granting of stock options.

We paid $183,000 for mining acquisitions and related exploration work in 2005 as compared to $122,000 in 2004.

Fiscal Year Ended February 28, 2004 compared to Fiscal year Ended February 28, 2003

Results of Operations

During fiscal 2004, we received no revenues from operations as compared to $nil revenues in 2003.

Administrative expenses in 2004 totaled $354,000 as compared to $201,000 in 2003. The expenses increased from the prior year due to the increased activity of the Company. Office, rent and telephone totaled $65,000 compared to $13,000 in 2003. Professional fees totaled $28,000 compared to $16,000 in 2003. We also incurred an imputed interest charge of $23,000 compared to $90,00 in 2003. Imputed interest at 15% was charged to operations based on the advances from related parties and treated as donated capital. This amount decreased during 2004 due to the settlement of debt in 2003. Filing and regulatory expenses increased due to increased reporting activities. Consulting and subcontract expenses increased to $174,000 in 2004 from $17,000 in 2003. This increase was due to a payment of $100,000 to Barry Clarke and a payment of $30,000 to Capital Research for financing consulting.

In 2003 we recorded an option payment of $80,000 which represented the 200,000 shares we received pursuant to the joint venture agreement with Teryl Resources Corp. We paid $122,000 for mining acquisitions and related exploration work as compared to $6,000 in 2003. In 2003 we issued 3,000,000 shares to purchase a license from Mailprotek.com. The license value was valued at $238,000 but Mailprotek.com’s was $25,000 which resulted in a deemed dividend of $213,800.

Fiscal Year Ended February 28, 2003 compared to Fiscal year Ended February 28, 2002

Results of Operations

During fiscal 2003, we received no revenues from operations as compared to $1,078 revenues in 2002.

Administrative expenses in 2003 totaled $226,000 as compared to $416,000 in 2002. The expenses decreased from the prior year due to the inactivity of the Company. There were no financing costs compared to $25,000 in 2002. There was a foreign exchange gain of $34,000 compared to a foreign exchange loss of $4,000 in 2002. There was no interest on convertible debentures as compared to $7,000 in 2002. Office, rent and telephone totaled $13,000 compared to $25,000 in 2002. Professional fees totaled $16,000 compared to $71,000 in 2002. In 2002, we wrote off obsolete inventory of $49,000. We also incurred an imputed interest charge of $90,500 compared to $115,000 in 2003. Imputed interest at 15% was charged to operations based on the advances from related parties and treated as donated capital.

In 2003 we recorded an option payment of $80,000 which represented the 200,000 shares we received pursuant to the joint venture agreement with Teryl Resources Corp. In 2003 we issued 3,000,000 shares to

purchase a license from Mailprotek.com. The license value was valued at $238,000 but Mailprotek.com’s was $25,000 which resulted in a deemed dividend of $213,800.

B.            LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In the past, we have derived most of our development and operating capital primarily from the issuance of capital stock. Minor amounts were derived from interest.

We have been successful in the past in acquiring capital through the issuance of shares of our Common Stock, and through advances from related parties. Although we intend to continue utilizing these sources, there has been no assurance in the past that these sources and methods would continue to be available in the future. On July 16, 1999, we received from John G. Robertson, its then President, currently the Chairman of the Board, a "Commitment to Provide Financing to Flame Petro-Minerals Corp. as Required for Ongoing Operations". In substance, the Commitment states that if we are not able to obtain funds required for maintaining our ongoing operations and status as a publicly traded company, from other sources, Mr. Robertson agrees and commits to provide, and/or arrange for any such funds for us on either a loan, equity, or combination basis, on mutually agreeable terms, and which comply with any regulatory rules and regulations applicable to such transactions. Mr. Robertson further states that such maintenance funding requirements are estimated at approximately $50,000 per year and that he is capable of arranging for such funding and/or is able to generate net earnings from revenues which will sustain our ongoing operations.

In the event that Mr. Robertson were not able to raise funds, and no other sources of capital were available to us in the future, on a reasonable financial basis, it would face the same obstacles as many small, undercapitalized companies do, and, in the worst case, we could be forced to reorganize or liquidate, either of which consequence would likely have an adverse financial effect upon our shareholders.

Liquidity

During 2005 we financed our operations by the issue of 4,543,110 common shares for cash proceeds of $908,195.

B.            MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

The Memorandum and Articles of the Company are incorporated by reference to the information in our registration statement on Form 20-F filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in Washington, D.C. on June 4, 1999, which became effective August 3, 1999, to which our Articles of Incorporation and Memorandum were filed as exhibits.

On March 29, 2004, the new British Columbia Business Corporations Act (the "BCA") came into force in British Columbia and replaced the former Company Act (“Former Act”) , which is the statute under which we were previously governed. Under the BCA, we have two years within which to transition ("Transition") under the new statute. In accordance with the BCA, we cannot amend our Articles or Notice of Articles until the Transition to the BCA is completed. We filed a transition application with the Registrar of Companies British Columbia and completed the Transition on June 11, 2004.

Concurrent with the completion of the Transition, we were required in accordance with the BCA to incorporate certain provisions known as the "Pre-Existing Company Provisions" (the "Pre-Existing Company Provisions") into our Notice of Articles, which replaced the existing Memorandum . The Company is a “pre-existing company” under the BCA (that is, a company in existence at the time the BCA came into force). The Pre-Existing Company Provisions provide our company with certain default provisions in case certain provisions which are required to be included in the Articles under the BCA are not included in our Articles.

We filed our Notice of Articles with the Registrar of Companies which contains basic information relating to the Company, including our name, the particulars of the directors and the authorized capital. This was a mandatory requirement for transition to the BCA.

On August 16, 2004, at the Annual General Meeting of shareholders, our shareholders passed a special resolution that the Notice of Articles, once filed, be altered to remove the Pre-existing Company Provisions set forth in Part 16 of the Regulations to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia); and delete and replace our Articles in their entirety and no longer apply to Linux Gold Corp.

The New Articles, among other things, incorporate and amend certain of the information required by the Pre-Existing Company Provisions.

Our Incorporation Number is BC0187279. Our Articles do not restrict the nature of the business that may be carried on by the Company.

C.            MATERIAL CONTRACTS

During the past two years ended February 28, 2005 and February 29, 2004, we entered into the following material contracts.

Provided that Linux has previously exercised the above mentioned options, we may exercise the Option as to the final 5% of the Optioned Shares, following the completion of the Phase III Program by (i) issuing a further 50,000 Linux Shares to Tse; and (ii) entering into a Royalty Agreement which grants to Tse a Net Profits Royalty in the BLN Project.

Fish Creek Joint Venture Agreement

              On March 5, 2002 we announced that a joint venture has been completed for a 50% interest in 30 Fish Creek claims in Alaska based on the following terms and conditions. Teryl Resources Corp. will issue 200,000 treasury shares of its common shares, which shares were issued on December 16, 2002, and will give to Linux Gold Corp. a 5% royalty interest until $2,000,000 U.S. has been received from the royalty payments. Teryl Resources Corp. may purchase the 5% net royalty for $500,000 U.S. within 1 year after production. Teryl also agrees to expend a minimum of $500,000 U.S. after three years from the date of the agreement.

- 41 -

              On November 4, 2002, we amended the March 5, 2002 agreement with Teryl Resources Corp. We agreed that in consideration for receiving a mining license which was not disclosed to us at the time of the March 5, 2002 agreement, both parties agreed to grant Linux a back in working interest for a 25% interest in the mining lease after Teryl completes the US$500,000 expenditures.

              In March 2005, the joint venture agreement was extended until March 5, 2007. Other than the extension, all other terms remain the same. Subject to regulatory approval, Teryl shall issue 100,000 shares of its common stock to Linux Gold Corp. as consideration for the extension.

D.            EXCHANGE CONTROLS.

There are no governmental laws, decrees or regulations in Canada relating to restrictions on the export of capital affecting the remittance of interest, dividends or other payments to nonresident holders of the Registrant's shares. Any such remittances, however, are subject to withholding tax. See Item 10.E, "Taxation".

There are no limitations under the laws of Canada, the Province of British Columbia or in the charter or any other constituent documents of the Company on the right of foreigners to hold or vote the shares of the Company. However, under the provisions of the Investment Canada Act, when control of a Canadian business is acquired by a non- Canadian, the transaction may be reviewable in certain circumstances by Investment Canada, an agency of the federal government of Canada. Reviewable transactions are those in which a non-Canadian acquires the assets of a Canadian business or the voting shares of a Canadian corporation the value of which assets or shares exceeds $5 million (Canadian). Also, certain transactions are specifically exempted from review.

E.            TAXATION.

Withholding

Generally, cash dividends paid by Canadian corporations to nonresident shareholders are subject to a withholding tax of 25 percent. However, pursuant to Article X[2 of the Canada-United States tax treaty, dividends paid to a resident if a company of the United States are only subject to a 15 percent withholding tax. Further, if the United states resident owns 10 percent or more of the voting shares of the Canadian company paying the dividends, the withholding tax is reduced to 10 percent. In addition to dividend withholding, interest paid to United States residents is subject to a 15 percent withholding tax pursuant to Article XI[2 of the Canada-United States tax treaty.

Capital Gains

A nonresident purchaser who holds shares of the Company as capital property will not be subject to tax on capital gains realized on the disposition of such shares unless such shares are "taxable Canadian property" within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and no relief is afforded under any applicable tax treaty. The shares of the Company would be taxable Canadian property of a nonresident purchaser if the nonresident purchaser used the shares in carrying on a business in Canada or if at any time during the five-year period immediately preceding the disposition not less than 25 percent of the issued shares of any class of the Company belonged to the particular purchaser, persons with whom the purchaser did not deal at arm's length or any combination thereof.

Holders of Common Shares of the Company should seek independent advice from their own professional tax advisors with respect to the Canadian Income Tax consequences arising from the holding of Common Shares of the Company.

I.            SUBSIDIARY INFORMATION.

We hold a 100% interest in LinuxWizardry, Inc., a private Florida corporation which is currently inactive.

ITEM 11.          QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133. "Accounting For Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 was effective for our fiscal year beginning March 1, 2004. The Company believes that it does not have any material exposure to interest or commodity risks. The Company does not own any derivative instruments, does not engage in any hedging transactions and does not have any outstanding long-term debt. Because we are not involved in any activities covered by SFAS No. 133, the adoption of SFAS No. 133 is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 15.            CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Based upon the evaluation of the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures within 90 days prior to the filing date of this annual report, the Registrant's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of such date, the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that material information relating to the Registrant was made known to others within the company particularly during the period in which this annual report and accounts were being prepared, and such controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Registrant in the reports that it files or submits under regulatory rules and securities laws is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified. Management of the Registrant recognizes that any controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance, and not absolute assurance, of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgement in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.

There were no significant changes in the Registrant's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date the Chief Executive Officer completed his evaluation, nor were there any significant deficiencies of material weaknesses in the Registrant's internal controls requiring corrective actions.

ITEM 16.          [Reserved]

ITEM 16A.       Audit Committee Financial Expert

We do not currently have a financial expert in our audit committee due to our relatively small size. In 2005, we had no employees and we relied upon the services of a chartered accounting firm in Vancouver, BC, Canada, to prepare our interim unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements. Also, we retained the audit services of Manning Elliott Chartered Accountants to perform the audit on our year-end consolidated financial statements.

- 44 -


Moreover, the audit committee is comprised of seasoned business professionals, whereby two members have over 25 years of experience in the investment business and are board members of several corporations.

On these bases, we believe that the audit committee has adequate resources available to it when financial expertise and advice are necessary.

ITEM 16B.       Code of Ethics

We have not adopted a formal written code of ethics given our relatively small size, whereby we had no employees in 2005.

Directors are subject to the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, whereby they are required to act honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of the Company.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
 
FEBRUARY 28, 2005
(Stated in Canadian Dollars)

F-1


Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Linux Gold Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Linux Gold Corp. as at February 28, 2005 and February 29, 2004 and the consolidated statements of operations and deficit, and cash flows for the years ended February 28, 2005, February 29, 2004 and February 28, 2003. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at February 28, 2005 and February 29, 2004 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended February 28, 2005, February 29, 2004 and February 28, 2003 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has not generated profitable operations since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 1. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments, which might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

1.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND CONTINUANCE OF BUSINESS

     

The Company was incorporated February 27, 1979 in Canada under the British Columbia Company Act and was extraprovincially registered in the Province of Alberta on October 12, 1995.

     

The Company voluntarily delisted from the Canadian Venture Exchange on December 14, 1999. The Company's stock currently trades on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board in the United States under the symbol "LNXGF".

     

On February 20, 2003, the shareholders approved a change of name to Linux Gold Corp. and increased the authorized share capital to 200,000,000 common shares without par value. The Company now plans to conduct mineral exploration in Northern British Columbia and Alaska.

     

The Company is currently in the exploration stage and equity financing is required to provide working capital and to meet exploration commitments. As a result of the uncertainty that is typical in an exploration stage company, mounting losses, and the severe working capital deficiency, there is substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as going concern. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations and to determine the existence, discovery and successful exploitation of economically recoverable reserves in its resource properties, confirmation of the Company's interest in the underlying properties, and the attainment of profitable operations. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     
a)

Basis of Accounting

     

These consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are presented in Canadian dollars. There are no consolidated financial statements prepared using Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. See Note 14 for a reconciliation of U.S. and Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. The Company is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No.7 "Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises". These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its inactive wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary, LinuxWizardry, Inc.

     
b)

Foreign Currency Translation

     

The company's functional and reporting currency is the Canadian dollar. The financial statements of the Company are translated to Canadian dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 52 "Foreign Currency Translation". Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in U.S. dollars. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. The Company has not, to the date of these financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

     
c)

Use of Estimates

     

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

     
d)

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

     

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive.

     
e)

Stock based Compensation

     

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." This statement requires that stock awards granted subsequently to January 1, 1995, be recognized as compensation expense based on fair market value at the date of grant. Alternatively, a company may account for granted stock awards to employees under Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and disclose pro forma income amounts, which would have resulted from recognizing such awards at the fair market value. The company has elected to account for stock-based compensation for employees under APB No. 25 and make the required pro forma disclosures for compensation expense in accordance with SFAS No. 123. The Company accounts for stock issued for services to non-employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123. Compensation expense is based on the fair market value for stock award or fair market value of the goods and services received, whichever is more reliably measurable.

     

The options are granted for services provided to the Company. The fair value of the employee's purchase rights under SFAS 123 was estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted average assumptions:


Year ended
February 28, February 29, February 28,
2005 2004 2003
           
    Risk-free interest rate 3.38% 5.80% 5.80%
    Expected volatility 154% 50% 50%
    Expected dividends - - -
    Expected option life (in years) 3 0.50 0.50

  If compensation expense had been determined pursuant to SFAS 123, the Company's net loss and net loss per share for the years ended February 28, 2005, 2004 and 2003 would have been as follows:

Year ended
February 28,      February 29, February 28,
2005 2004 2003
           
    Net loss - as reported (842,092 ) (106,234 ) (150,020 )

         - as reported 82,000 - -
    Deduct: Stock-based compensation expense determined

f)

Mineral Property Costs

     

The Company has been in the exploration stage since February 20, 2003 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property acquisition and exploration costs are charged to operation as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.

     
g)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

     

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

     
h)

Discount on Convertible Debentures

     

The discount on convertible debentures issued in prior fiscal years is being amortized on a straight-line basis over five years, which is the life of the detachable warrants issued with the convertible debentures.

     
i)

Long-lived Assets

     

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets is reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest impairment. The Company recognizes impairment when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value.

     
j)

Marketable Securities

     

The Company reports investments in debt and marketable equity securities at fair value based on quoted market prices or, if quoted prices are not available, discounted expected cash flows using market rates commensurate with credit quality and maturity of the investment. Substantially all investment securities are designated as available for sale with unrealized gains and losses included in stockholders' equity, net of applicable taxes and other adjustments. The Company regularly reviews investment securities for impairment based on criteria that include the extent to which the investment's carrying value exceeds its related market value, the duration of the market decline, the Company's ability to hold to recovery and the financial strength and specific prospects of the issuer of the security. Unrealized losses that are other than temporary are recognized in earnings. Realized gains and losses are accounted for on the specific identification method.

     
k)

Income Taxes

     

Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" as of its inception. Pursuant to SFAS No. 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years

Comprehensive Loss

     

SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at February 28, 2005 and February 29, 2004, the Company's only component of comprehensive loss was unrealized holding gains and losses on available for sale securities.

  n)

Property and Equipment

     

Property and equipment consists of office furniture, computer equipment and vehicle, which are recorded at cost. Office furniture is amortized on a declining balance basis at 20% per annum, computer equipment is amortized on a straight-line basis over three years, and the vehicle is amortized on a declining balance basis at 30% per annum.

     
  o)

Financial Instruments

     

Financial instruments, which include cash, amounts receivable, marketable securities, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and due to related parties, were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company's operations in Canada and China and virtually all of its assets and liabilities are giving rise to significant exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates. The financial risk is the risk to the Company's operations that arise from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.

     
  p)

Concentration of Risk

     

The Company maintains its cash account in primarily one commercial bank in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The Company's cash accounts are mainly two uninsured business checking accounts maintained in U.S. and Canadian dollars, which totaled $398,433 on February 28, 2005. At February 28, 2005 the Company has not engaged in any transactions that would be considered derivative instruments on hedging activities.

     
  q)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets - An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29". The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, "Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions", is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. SFAS No. 153 amends Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Early application is permitted and companies must apply the standard prospectively. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

     

In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, "Share Based Payment" which is a revision of SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". SFAS 123R establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. SFAS 123R focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award - the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). SFAS 123R requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The Company will be required to apply SFAS 123R in the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position.

     

FASB has also issued SFAS No. 151 and No. 152 but they will not have any relationship to the operations of the Company therefore a description and its impact for each on the Company's operations and financial position have not been disclosed.

     

In March 2005, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 ("SAB 107") to give guidance on the implementation of SFAS 123R. The Company will consider SAB 107 during implementation of SFAS 123R.

MINERAL PROPERTIES

     
a)

Alaska Mineral Property

     

The Company owns a 50% joint venture interest in 30 claims located in the Fairbanks Mining Division, Alaska, USA, known as the Fish Creek Claims. During fiscal 2003, the Company optioned its 50% interest in the 30 Fish Creek Claims to Teryl Resources Corp. ("Teryl") (a related company). Under the terms of the agreement, Teryl issued 200,000 common shares to the Company at a fair value of $80,000 and must expend $500,000 over three years. The Company retained a 5% net royalty interest, until US$2,000,000 has been received, and may convert into a 25% working interest. Refer to Note 15(a). The Company has completed an amended agreement with Teryl to extend the option period for an additional 2 years in consideration for 100,000 treasury shares of Teryl.

RESTATEMENT

   

The consolidated balance sheet as at February 29, 2004 has been restated to reflect the correction in accounting for the unrealized holding gains and losses in marketable securities, which is recognized in other comprehensive income. Accordingly, the carrying value of marketable securities as at February 29, 2004 increased by $44,000, with a corresponding increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $44,000.

INCOME TAXES

   

Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" as of its inception. The Company has incurred Canadian non-capital losses as scheduled below:


Year of Year of
Loss Amount Expiration
     
1999 $  114,000 2006

$  2,704,000

    Pursuant to SFAS 109, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for non-capital losses carried forward. Potential benefit of non-capital losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the losses carried forward in future years.

RECONCILIATION OF UNITED STATES AND CANADIAN GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES ("US GAAP" and "Canadian GAAP")

   

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("US GAAP"), which differ in certain respects from those principles and practices that the Company would have followed had its consolidated financial statements been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada ("Canadian GAAP"). The following summarizes the significant differences between US GAAP and Canadian GAAP:

   

Stock based compensation

   

As described in Note 9, the Company has granted stock options to certain directors and employees. These options are granted for services provided to the Company. For US GAAP purposes, SFAS No. 123 ("SFAS 123") requires that an enterprise recognize, or at its option, disclose the impact of the fair value of stock options and other forms of stock-based compensation in the determination of income. The Company has elected under SFAS 123 to continue to measure compensation cost on the intrinsic value basis set out in APB Opinion No. 25. As stock options are granted at exercise prices based on the market price of the Company's shares at the date of grant, no compensation cost is recognized. However, under SFAS 123, the impact on net income and income per share of the fair value must be measured and disclosed on a fair value based method on a pro forma basis. For Canadian GAAP purposes, the Company is required to recognize the fair value of all stock options and all other forms of stock-based compensation in the determination of income.

   

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

   

US GAAP requires disclosure of comprehensive income, which comprises income and other components of comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes items that cause changes in shareholders' equity but are not related to share capital or net earnings which, for the Company, comprises currency translation adjustments. Under Canadian GAAP, there is no requirement to report comprehensive income.
