ITEM 1.               BUSINESS.

Overview

We were incorporated on December 14, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada.

We are a mineral exploration and development company engaged in: (i) the processing of ore at our processing and refining plant located in Phoenix, Arizona (the “Phoenix Facility”); and (ii) the exploration and development of our Piute Valley Property located in Clark County, Nevada.

Our Phoenix Facility is a compact, modular, cost efficient, turn-key operation, with a capacity to process up to 10 tons per day. In processing ore at our Phoenix Facility, we utilize our environmentally friendly proprietary technology for the lixiviation of minerals using thiourea stabilization (the “Lixiviation Technology”). The use of thiourea stabilization is more environmentally friendly than cyanide or sulfuric acid, which have traditionally been used for this purpose. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, we entered into mineral processing contracts to toll process ore at our Phoenix Facility and earned our first revenues, although minimal, from the processing of ore at our Phoenix Facility.

Our Piute Valley Property is a potential gold project that consists of a mineral lease covering 20.61 acres of patented claims (the “Smith Lease”) and an option to acquire a 7/8th interest in twenty unpatented claims (the “BLM Claims”) located near the Smith Lease. Each BLM Claim is comprised of 160 acres. A description of the Piute Valley Property is set out below under “Item 2. Properties."

We are actively seeking to enter into agreements to license our Lixiviation Technology to third parties. We are also seeking to enter into joint ventures with third parties to explore and develop additional mining projects. There are no assurances that we will be able to license our Lixiviation Technology or enter into joint ventures for the exploration and development of additional mining projects.

Recent Corporate Developments

The following corporate developments occurred since our the filing of our Quarterly Report for the period ended January 31, 2009 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 17, 2009:

1.

We completed our pilot production test on the Smith Lease. During the pilot production test, we built and operated a gravity concentration circuit in an effort to create a high value concentrate material. The results from our test were very promising, although inconclusive as far as the commercial viability of the gravity concentration process. Consistent with prior tests, we confirmed the existence of gold in the concentrates. However the concentrates were irregular in nature and could not be used as a method to

Page 3 of 33



scale up production. We are currently in the process of having a third party concentration technology evaluate the material to see if they can get consistent, higher concentrate results.

   
2.

We also upgraded our Phoenix Facility with a larger filter press assembly to allow for increased tonnage. The new process rate is 1,000 lbs per hour.

   
3.

On March 24, 2009, we entered into a Proprietary Intellectual Property License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Greene Lyon Group, LLC ("GLG"), a Massachusetts company. We granted GLG an exclusive, non-transferable license, for a period of five years, to utilize our Lixiviation Technology for the extraction of precious metals from the electronic scrap that results from recycling of electronic products such as computers, monitors and television sets ("E-Ore") in North America. In exchange for the granting of the license, GLG has agreed to pay to us a licensing fee of the greater of $5,000 annually or a royalty of two percent (2%) of the value of the precious metals recovered utilizing the Lixiviation Technology.

   
4.

On April 2, 2009, we appointed Michael C. Boyko as a member of our Board of Directors.

   
5.

On July 16, 2009, we issued an aggregate of 2,500,000 Units. Each Unit is comprised of one share of the our common stock and one share purchase warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase an additional share of common stock for a period of two years at an exercise price of $0.10 US per share. We issued 500,000 Units to a director in reliance of Section 4(2) of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Act") to settle outstanding indebtedness in the amount of $25,000 owed by us to the director. We also issued 2,000,000 Units to an existing shareholder in reliance of Regulation S of the Act to settle outstanding indebtedness in the amount of $100,000 owed by us to the existing shareholder. The existing shareholder represented that he was not a "US Person" as defined under Regulation S of the Act.

Phoenix Facility and Lixiviation Technology

On April 2, 2007, we acquired our interest in the Lixiviation Technology and our Phoenix Facility under the terms of a Technology and Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Technology Agreement”) with New Verde River Mining Co., Inc. (“New Verde”) and Robert H. Gunnison. In consideration of the Lixiviation Technology and the Phoenix Facility, we paid and issued the following:

  (a)

$300,000 to New Verde for the purchase of the Lixiviation Technology and the Phoenix Facility as follows:

       
  (i)

$175,000 (which amount has been paid); and

       
  (ii)

$125,000 of which $102,683 is outstanding.

       
  (b)

issued 2,000,000 shares to Mr. Gunnison for the Lixiviation Technology.

Concurrent with the acquisition of the Lixiviation Technology and the Phoenix Facility, we entered into an Employment Agreement dated April 2, 2007 (the “Employment Agreement”) with Robert H. Gunnison whereby Mr. Gunnison agreed to act as our Production Manager commencing on April 2, 2008. In consideration of Mr. Gunnison’s services, we pay Mr. Gunnison a salary of $120,000 per annum. On March 13, 2009, we entered into the Payment Extension and License Agreement with New Verde and Mr. Gunnison whereby New Verde and Mr. Gunnison agreed to extend the deadline for the balance owed to New Verde to June 30, 2010. In consideration of the extension, we agreed to pay interest at 6% per annum on the balance owing to New Verde. We also agreed to grant New Verde and Mr. Gunnison a non-exclusive worldwide license on the Technology (the “License”). The License will only take effect in the event of the termination of the employment agreement between Mr. Gunnison and the Company. New Verde and Mr. Gunnison will not be permitted to assign or sub-license without our prior written approval.

Our Phoenix Facility is an industrial building of approximately 9,809 square feet located in Phoenix, Arizona. The Phoenix Facility is designed as a compact, modular, cost efficient, turn-key operation, with a capacity of processing 10 tons of ore per day. In processing ore at our Phoenix Facility, we utilize our Lixiviation

Technology, being a closed loop, zero liquid discharge, leach extraction process. Below is a basic diagram on the processing of ore at our Phoenix Facility.


The Piute Valley Property

The Piute Valley Property is a potential gold project consisting of the Smith Lease and the BLM Claims. We intend to focus our operations on the Smith Lease based on its development and status.

The Smith Lease is a leased patented mineral claim covering approximately 20.61 acres located in Clark County, Nevada. We acquired our interest in the Smith Lease upon entering into a Restatement and Amendment to Lease Agreement dated April 12, 2007 (the “Lease Agreement”) with Erline Y. Smith, Trustee, Erline Y. Smith Trust and Lawana Hooper (collectively referred to as the “Lessors”). Under the terms of the Lease Agreement, we were granted the right to explore, and if proved feasible, develop the Smith Lease. These rights were granted as a lease for a term of 20 years. As consideration for the Smith Lease, we are required to do the following:

  (a)

pay $5,000 to the Lessors upon execution of the Lease Agreement (which amount has been paid);

     
  (b)

pay an annual rental fee of $1,000 to the Lessors per each five acre parcel of the Smith Lease (we have paid the annual rental fee through August 9, 2009); and

     
  (c)

pay an annual royalty equal to five percent of “net smelting profit” from production. Net smelting profit is defined as the net profit derived from the sale of metals and minerals produced from the Smith Lease.

In addition to the Smith Lease, our BLM Claims consist of an option to acquire a 7/8th undivided interest in 20 mineral claims, covering approximately 3,200 acres located in Clark County, Nevada. Readers are cautioned that eight of the BLM Claims appear to be invalid due to conflicts with patented claims or more senior claims. We are investigating this further in order to determine the exact extent of the conflict with these claims.

Under the terms of various option agreements entered into in January 2007 (the “Option Agreements”) with certain optionors (the “Optionors”), we are required to issue to the Optionors the following consideration in order to maintain and exercise our option on the BLM Claims:

Page 5 of 33



  (a)

1,050,000 shares of common stock on execution of the Option Agreements (which shares have been issued);

     
  (b)

an additional 420,000 shares of common stock on the fifth anniversary of the Option Agreements; and

     
  (c)

an additional 210,000 shares of common stock on the tenth anniversary of the Option Agreements.

Compliance with Government Regulation

Our activities are subject to extensive federal, state, and local regulations in the United States. These statutes regulate the mining of and exploration for mineral properties, and also the possible effects of such activities upon the environment. Future legislation and regulations could cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions and delays in the development of the Piute Valley Property, the extent of which cannot be predicted. Our Piute Valley Property is comprised of patented and unpatented mining claims located on federal land managed by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. Mining activities on the Piute Valley Property must be carried out in accordance with a permit issued by the Bureau of Land Management.

Other regulatory requirements monitor the following:

  (a)

Explosives and explosives handling.

  (b)

Use and occupancy of site structures associated with mining.

  (c)

Hazardous materials and waste disposal.

  (d)

State Historic site preservation.

  (e)

Archaeological and paleontological finds associated with mining.

  (f)

Wildlife preservation.

The State of Nevada adopted the Mined Land Reclamation Act (the “Nevada Act”) in 1989 that established design, operation, monitoring and closure requirements for all mining facilities. The Nevada Act has increased the cost of designing, operating, monitoring and closing new mining facilities and could affect the cost of operating, monitoring and closing existing mining facilities. The State of Nevada has also adopted reclamation regulations. The Nevada Act also requires reclamation plans and permits for exploration projects that will result in more than five acres of surface disturbance.

In the context of environmental permitting, we must comply with known standards, existing laws and regulations that may entail greater or lesser costs and delays, depending on the nature of the activity to be permitted and how stringently the regulations are implemented by the permitting authority. We are not presently aware of any specific material environmental constraints affecting our property that would preclude the economic development or operation of any specific property.

If our property merits additional exploration or extraction work, it is reasonable to expect that compliance with environmental regulations will increase our costs. Such compliance may include feasibility studies on the surface impact of our proposed operations, costs associated with minimizing surface impact, water treatment and protection, reclamation activities, including rehabilitation of various sites, on-going efforts at alleviating the mining impact on wildlife and permits or bonds as may be required to ensure our compliance with applicable regulations. It is possible that the costs and delays associated with such compliance could become so prohibitive that we may decide to not proceed with exploration, development, or mining operations on our mineral property.

Competition

We are an exploration stage company. We compete with other mineral resource exploration and development companies for financing and for the acquisition of new mineral properties. Many of the mineral resource exploration and development companies with whom we compete have greater financial and technical resources than we do. Accordingly, these competitors may be able to spend greater amounts on acquisitions of mineral properties of merit, on exploration of their mineral properties and on development of their mineral properties. In addition, they may be able to afford greater geological expertise in the targeting and exploration of mineral

Page 6 of 33


properties. This competition could result in competitors having mineral properties of greater quality and interest to prospective investors who may finance additional exploration and development. This competition could adversely impact our ability to finance further exploration and to achieve the financing necessary for us to develop our mineral properties.

We will also compete with other junior mineral exploration companies for financing from a limited number of investors that are prepared to make investments in junior mineral exploration companies. The presence of competing junior mineral exploration companies may impact our ability to raise additional capital in order to fund our exploration programs if investors are of the view that investments in competitors are more attractive based on the merit of the mineral properties under investigation and the price of the investment offered to investors. We will also compete with other junior and senior mineral companies for available resources, including, but not limited to, professional geologists, camp staff, helicopter or float planes, mineral exploration supplies and drill rigs.

Patents and Trademarks

We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patent or trademark. We intend to seek patents with respect to the Lixiviation Technology.

Research and Development Expenditures

During our fiscal year ended April 30, 2009, we spent approximately $616,559 on research and development costs. In fiscal 2008, we spent approximately $815,022 on research and development costs.

Employees

Other than our executive officers and directors, we do not have any employees at the time of this Annual Report.

ITEM 1A.             RISK FACTORS.

The following are some of the important factors that could affect our financial performance or could cause actual results to differ materially from estimates contained in our forward-looking statements. We may encounter risks in addition to those described below. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, may also impair or adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operation.

If we do not obtain additional financing, we may not be able to continue our operations at our Phoenix Facility or complete our exploration and development programs on the Piute Valley Property.

As at April 30, 2009, we had cash on hand of $1,819 and accumulated net loss of $7,665,712 since inception. Our plan of operation calls for significant expenses in connection with the operation of our Phoenix Facility and the exploration and development of our Piute Valley Property. If we are unable to raise sufficient financing, there is a substantial risk that we will be unable to meet payments of principal and interest to our creditors and pay our employees. In addition, we will require substantial financing in order to implement our plan of operation over the next twelve months.

Our Board of Directors is currently seeking to arrange a private placement to fund our operations. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to complete the sale of any additional securities under a private placement offering. Even if we complete the sale of all of the securities offered under a private placement offering, there is no assurance that this will satisfy all of our working capital requirements for the next twelve months or that these funds will be sufficient to complete our planned exploration and development programs.

If we complete additional financings through the sale of shares of our common stock, our existing stockholders will experience dilution.

The most likely source of future financing presently available to us is through the issuance of our common stock. The only other anticipated alternative for the financing of further exploration would be the offering by us of an interest in our properties to be earned by another party or parties carrying out further exploration thereof, which

Page 7 of 33


is not presently contemplated. Issuing shares of our common stock, for financing purposes or otherwise, will dilute the interests of our existing stockholders.

In order to maintain our rights to the Piute Valley Property, we will be required to make annual filings with federal and state regulatory agencies and/or be required to complete assessment work on those properties.

In order to maintain our rights to the Piute Valley Property, we will be required to make annual filings with federal and state regulatory authorities. Currently the amount of these fees is minimal; however, these maintenance fees are subject to adjustment. In addition, we may be required by federal and/or state legislation or regulations to complete minimum annual amounts of mineral exploration work on the Piute Valley Property. A failure by us to meet the annual maintenance requirements under federal and state laws could result in the loss of our rights to the Piute Valley Property.

Because we are an exploration stage company, we face a high risk of business failure.

As at April 30, 2009, we have earned our first revenues, although minimal from the processing of ore at our Phoenix Facility. Our primary business activities have involved the acquisition of the Piute Valley Property, the exploration and development on the Piute Valley Property and the commencement of operations at our Phoenix Facility. Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by exploration stage companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the exploration of the mineral properties that we plan to undertake. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to exploration, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates.

Because we anticipate our operating expenses will increase prior to our earning significant revenues, we may never achieve profitability.

Prior to completion of our exploration stage, we anticipate that we will incur increased operating expenses prior to realizing any significant revenues. We therefore expect to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future. We recognize that if we are unable to generate significant revenues from the operation of our Phoenix Facility or the exploration and development of our mineral property and the production of minerals thereon, if any, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful, and we may not be able to ever generate any operating revenues or achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail.

Because of the speculative nature of exploration of mining properties, there is substantial risk that no commercially exploitable minerals will be found and our business will fail.

The search for valuable minerals as a business is extremely risky. We may not find commercially exploitable reserves of precious metals on our mineral claims. Exploration for minerals is a speculative venture, necessarily involving substantial risk. The expenditures to be made by us in the upcoming exploration of the mineral claims may not result in the discovery of commercial quantities of ore. Problems such as unusual or unexpected formations and other conditions are involved in mineral exploration and often result in unsuccessful exploration efforts. In such a case, we would be unable to complete our business plan.

Because of the inherent dangers involved in mineral exploration, there is a risk that we may incur liability or damages if and when we conduct mineral exploration activities.

The search for valuable minerals involves numerous hazards. As a result, if and when we conduct exploration activities we may become subject to liability for such hazards, including pollution, cave-ins and other hazards against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. The payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on our financial position.

Page 8 of 33


Even if we discover commercial reserves of precious metals on our Piute Valley Property, we may not be able to successfully obtain commercial production.

Our Piute Valley Property does not contain any known bodies of ore. If our exploration programs are successful in discovering ore of commercial tonnage and grade, we will require additional funds in order to place those mineral claims into commercial production. At this time, there is a risk that we will not be able to obtain such financing as and when needed.

Because we are an exploration stage company, our business has a high risk of failure.

As noted in our financial statements included with this Annual Report, we are an exploration stage company that has incurred net losses since inception, we have not attained profitable operations and we are dependent upon obtaining adequate financing to complete our exploration activities. The success of our business operations will depend upon our ability to obtain further financing to complete our planned exploration program and to attain profitable operations. If we are not able to complete a successful exploration program and attain sustainable profitable operations, then our business will fail.

As we undertake exploration of our Piute Valley Property, we will be subject to compliance with government regulation that may increase the anticipated cost of our exploration program.

There are several government regulations that materially restrict the exploration of minerals. We may be required to obtain work permits, post bonds and perform remediation work for any physical disturbance to the land in order to comply with these laws. While our planned exploration program budgets for regulatory compliance, there is a risk that new regulations could increase our costs of doing business and prevent us from carrying out our exploration program.

Certain work to be performed on our mineral projects may require us to apply for permits from federal, state or local regulatory bodies.

If our applications for permits from the relevant regulatory bodies are denied, we may not be able to proceed with our exploration and development programs as disclosed above, which could have a negative effect on our business.

If we receive positive results from our exploration program and we decide to pursue commercial production, we may be subject to an environmental review process that may delay or prohibit commercial production.

If the results of our geological exploration program indicate commercially exploitable reserves, and we decide to pursue commercial production of our mineral property, we may be subject to an environmental review process under environmental assessment legislation. Compliance with an environmental review process may be costly and may delay commercial production. Furthermore, there is the possibility that we would not be able to proceed with commercial production upon completion of the environmental review process if government authorities did not approve our mine or if the costs of compliance with government regulation adversely affected the commercial viability of the proposed mine.

If we are unable to hire and retain key personnel, we may not be able to implement our business plan and our business will fail.

Our success will largely depend on our ability to hire highly qualified personnel with experience in geological exploration. These individuals may be in high demand and we may not be able to attract the staff we need. In addition, we may not be able to afford the high salaries and fees demanded by qualified personnel, or may lose such employees after they are hired. Our failure to hire key personnel when needed could have a significant negative effect on our business.

Because our stock is a penny stock, stockholders will be more limited in their ability to sell their stock.

Our common stock is considered to be a “penny stock” since it does not qualify for one of the exemptions from the definition of “penny stock” under Section 3a51-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Our common stock is a “penny stock” because it meets one or more of the following conditions (i) the stock

Page 9 of 33


trades at a price less than $5.00 per share; (ii) it is not traded on a “recognized” national exchange; (iii) it is not quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market, or even if so, has a price less than $5.00 per share; or (iv) is issued by a company that has been in business less than three years with net tangible assets less than $5 million.

The principal result or effect of being designated a “penny stock” is that securities broker-dealers participating in sales of our common stock will be subject to the “penny stock” regulations set forth in Rules 15-2 through 15g-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act. For example, Rule 15g-2 requires broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document at least two business days before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor's account. Moreover, Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer to (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor's financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult and time consuming for holders of our common stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them in the market or otherwise.

THE PIUTE VALLEY PROPERTY

Location, Climate, Infrastructure and Access

The Piute Valley Property consists of approximately 3,200 acres of lakebed exploration project, with underlying hard rock potential, located about 50 miles south of Las Vegas, Nevada.

Access is by vehicle from Las Vegas on Highway 95 to Searchlight, Nevada then by secondary roads southward. The area is typically desert climate with relatively high temperatures and low precipitation. Vegetation consists mainly of desert shrubs and cactus. Sources of water would be available from valley wells.

Geology

The Piute Valley Property contains extensive sedimentary deposits, a part of an extensive basin filled with unconsolidated detritus and bounded by outcropping Miocene volcanic and intrusive rocks. Previous geologic work conducted from interpretation of satellite infrared imagery indicates the claims are overlaying a major east-west Fracture Zone as wide as 5-8 miles. Historically, gold mined from the area was produced principally from quartz-sulphide-hematite veins trending in the same east-west direction.

Page 10 of 33


Metallurgy and Mineralogy

The Piute Valley Property has a complex mineralogy that requires a technical extension of conventional fire assay methods to identify the precious metals of gold, silver and platinum group metals, and unique and proprietary leaching and separation methods to extract the precious metals. The gold particles occur as micron clusters in a highly refractory aluminum silicate matrix that arrested the growth of the gold clusters and prevents their rapid solutioning, whether in high temperature molten flux used in fire assay (aluminum silicates melt at temperatures higher than conventional fire assay temperatures) or in chemical digestion (cyanidation does not attack the aluminum silicate coating). We have developed the necessary technology to “assay” the existence of the gold clusters and a process to extract, separate and purify any precious metals.

History of Exploration

In 2007, we initiated a sampling program on the Piute Valley Property to analyze the efficacy of conventional fire assay methodology for determining the grade of precious metals in samples from the property.

  • January 2007 – 20 surface samples randomly collected from Section 2 Range 63E Township 29S were analyzed for Au at our Phoenix Facility. The samples were collected from excavating 3-5 feet from the surface, screened to -1/4”, further milled to 200 mesh, fire assayed, and separated into 1000 g (~2 lb) bench leaching. We completed this Phase I study on the precious metals recoverable composition and found high statistical variance in the results from the fire assay of 15 g (1/2 assay ton) and 30 g (full assay ton) samples. The 1000 g bench leaching, however, demonstrated consistent extraction results using our Lixivation Technology.

  • February to July 2007 – We initiated a 6 month large-scale sampling program, Phase II study, designed to explore the precious metal values throughout the 1,280 acre position of the Piute Valley Property. Three 5 ton sampling efforts were conducted, each consisting of excavating 5-10 feet from the surface, screened to - 1/4”, further milled to 350 mesh, fire assayed, and separated into 1000 g (~2 lb) bench leaching, 100 kg batch leaching, and 2000 kg pilot-scale leaching. We completed this Phase II study and our results demonstrated consistent, scalable extraction economics from the 1000 g bench leaching, 100 kg batch leaching, and 2000 kg pilot-scale leaching. The gold grade of the head ore, calculated from the gold produced from the batch and pilot-scale leaching consistently yielded values at 4.65 g/t (~0.15 oz/ton) and higher.

Exploration Activities Conducted on the Piute Valley Property

Our current state of exploration involves a four phase exploration program to be undertaken on the Piute Valley Property to assess its potential to host gold and silver mineralization. The four phase program consists of the following:

Phase Exploration Program Cost                                    Status
Phase I
Chain of custody surface exploration.
$30,000
Completed in October, 2007.
Phase II Preliminary coring to depths of 100 meters. $75,000 Completed in January, 2008.
Phase III Pilot Production Test on the Smith Lease. $280,000 Completed in June, 2009.
Phase IV Test diamond drilling of the prime targets for 20 acres production. $500,000 Expected to be completed in December, 2009.
  Total Estimated Cost $885,000  

Our exploration program is intended to generate and prioritize target areas for implementation of our Lixiviation Technology. It has come to our attention that eight of our original mineral claims have been segregated by the Bureau of Land Management. A substantial portion of our previous exploration work on the Piute Valley Property was conducted on these invalid claims. However, we believe that the mineralization is homogenous throughout the Piute Valley and accordingly the results should be valid for the remaining claims.

Page 11 of 33


Phase I Exploration Program

Work on Phase I of our exploration program was completed in October, 2007 and consisted of chain of custody surface exploration and a shallow drilling program to provide us with additional information on the mineralization, concentration efficacy, extraction efficiency, and processing economics of the former 2,560 acres portion of the Piute Valley Property.

Phase II Exploration Program

Work on Phase II of our exploration program was completed in January, 2008. Phase II of our exploration program consisted of drilling at a depth of up to 100 meters and was conducted in an area a half-mile wide that extended two miles south of the area immediately south of the Quartette Mine. All drilling was conducted on the Smith Lease.

During Phase II of our exploration program, we obtained nine one-pound samples and nine 200 pound samples from an area of 100 acres located immediately south of the Quartette Mine. The surface sample results were analyzed at our mineral processing laboratory in Arizona. We also drilled five rotary percussion holes at depths between 30 meters and 100 meters. Each 15 meters of drilling generated 200 pounds of cuttings for mineral processing.

The following results were received by us in connection with Phase II of our exploration program.

Sample Type
Average Au oz/t
(g/t)
Average Ag oz/t
(g/t)
     
9 x 1 lb. surface samples, leached 2.54 g/t 0.63 g/t
9 x 200 lb. surface samples screened to minus ¼” 1.9 g/t 1.5 g/t
5 drill holes – full depth 2.95 g/t 0.93 g/t
5 drill holes – top 30 meters 3.18 g/t 1.5 g/t

Within the fiscal year ending April 30, 2008, we completed a pilot-scale processing study of the alluvial ore obtained from the Phase II portion of the exploration program. This processing study involved the gravity and floatation concentration of the head ore performed by Met-Solve Laboratories Inc. in Burnaby, British Columbia.

Phase III Exploration Program

We completed our pilot production test on the Smith Lease. During the pilot production test, we built and operated a gravity concentration circuit in an effort to create a high value concentrate material. The results from our test were very promising, although inconclusive as far as the commercial viability of the gravity concentration process. Consistent with prior tests, we confirmed the existence of gold in the concentrates. However the concentrates were irregular in nature and could not be used as a method to scale up production. We are currently in the process of having a third party concentration technology evaluate the material to see if they can get consistent, higher concentrate results.

Throughout our testing we found significant gold values in the head ore, that if efficiently concentrated should prove to be commercially viable. The range of value in our findings reveal between .03 to .11 oz per ton Au in the head ore. Once we prove out a viable method for concentration, we will scale up the process and begin immediate refinement in our Phoenix Facility.

Additional testing on the property revealed significant quartz structures, over 50 feet wide in some cases, between the 36’ and 44’ depth levels. These structures appear to be typical of the historic gold bearing material processed by local mining concerns in the past. The initial test results show values up to .49 oz per ton Au in the head ore. These findings have caused us to reevaluate our drilling plans and reapply for permits to drill out and map the property. Additional funding is required to properly drilling the claims.

Page 12 of 33


Phase IV Exploration Program

Phase IV of our exploration program will involve the test diamond drilling of prime targets on the Smith Lease. The implementation of Phase IV of our exploration may require the filing of a Notice with the Federal Bureau of Land Management. We anticipate that this phase will cost approximately $500,000. The completion of the Phase IV portion of our current exploration program will depend on obtaining sufficient funds for the drilling and mineral analysis.

Our planned exploration program is exploratory in nature and no commercially extractable mineral reserves may ever be found.

ITEM 3.               LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

We are not a party to any other legal proceedings and, to our knowledge, no other legal proceedings are pending, threatened or contemplated.

ITEM 4.               SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

No matters were submitted to our security holders during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended April 30, 2009.

PENNY STOCK RULES

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and in such form as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation. The broker-dealer also must, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, provide the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock that is not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must: (a) make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser; and (b) receive from the purchaser his or her written acknowledgement of receipt of the determination and a written agreement to the transaction.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

REGISTERED HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK

As of July 27, 2009, there were 128 registered holders of record of our common stock. We believe that a number of stockholders hold stock on deposit with their brokers or investment bankers registered in the name of stock depositories.

Page 14 of 33


DIVIDENDS

We have neither declared nor paid any cash dividends on our capital stock since our inception and do not contemplate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. It is anticipated that earnings, if any, will be retained for the operation of our business. Our board of directors will determine future dividend declarations and payments, if any, in light of the then-current conditions they deem relevant and in accordance with the Nevada Revised Statutes.

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or in our bylaws which prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of a dividend:

  (a)

We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or

     
  (b)

Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving distributions.

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

All unregistered sales of our equity securities made during the year ended April 30, 2009 have been reported by us in our Quarterly Reports or in our Current Reports filed with the SEC during the year.

ITEM 7.               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

PLAN OF OPERATION

We anticipate that over the next twelve months our plan of operation for our Phoenix Facility and the Piute Valley Property will consist of:

1)

Upgrading our Phoenix Facility by: (a) installing another vibratory drum mill and filter press to increase the process rate at the Phoenix Facility to 2,000 lbs per hour; and (b) adding an electrowinning circuit to allow efficient extraction of high silver content material. We anticipate that we will require $500,000 in order to implement these upgrades at our Phoenix Facility.

   
2)

Implementing our drilling program of prime targets on the Smith Lease. The implementation of this drilling program may require the filing of a Notice with the Federal Bureau of Land Management. We anticipate that this drilling program will cost approximately $500,000. The completion of this drilling program will depend on obtaining sufficient funds for the drilling and mineral analysis.

   
3)

Proceeding with the purchase of a larger concentrator to be installed on the Smith Lease, subject to raising substantial financing and having a third party concentration technology evaluate the material from our pilot product test. If we are able to raise financing and purchase a concentrator, of which there is no assurance, we plan to commence the processing of mined material on the property.

   
4)

Exploring strategic partnerships for the exploration of the additional Piute Valley Property.

As of April 30, 2009, we had cash in the amount of $1,819. Accordingly, we do not have sufficient resources to meet the anticipated costs of completing our plan of operation for our Phoenix Facility, the Smith Lease or meeting the administrative costs of operating our business for the next twelve months. In order to complete our plan of operation, we will be required to obtain substantial financing from the sale of our common stock, of which there is no assurance.

Page 15 of 33


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

On October 5, 2007, we completed a merger with Royal Mines Inc. (“RMI”). The merger with RMI has been treated as a “reverse merger” for accounting purposes. As a result, RMI has been treated as the acquiring entity for accounting and financial reporting purposes. As such, our consolidated financial statements will be presented as a continuation of the operations of RMI and not Royal Mines And Minerals Corp. The operations of Royal Mines And Minerals Corp. are included in the consolidated statement of operations from the effective date of the merger, October 5, 2007.

Summary of Year End Results                  
                   
    Year Ended April 30,     Percentage  
    2009     2008     Increase / (Decrease)

Net Loss $  (1,717,000 ) $  (5,256,444 )   (67.3)%

Revenues

During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2009, we earned revenues of $2,200. These revenues consisted of $417 from a licensing fee and $1,783 from the processing of ore at our Phoenix Facility. We are currently in the exploration stage of our business. We have begun to process ore at our Phoenix Facility; however, our initial income from the use of our Phoenix Facility has been minimal.

Since the year ended April 30, 2009, we have earned approximately $39,800 from the processing of ore at our Phoenix Facility. We can provide no assurances that we earn significant revenue from the processing of ore at our Phoenix Facility or that we will discover commercially exploitable levels of mineral resources on our Piute Valley Property, or if such resources are discovered, that we will be able to enter into commercial production of our Piute Valley Property.

Expenses

The major components of our expenses for the year ended April 30, 2009 and 2008 are outlined in the table below:

                Percentage  
    Year Ended     Year Ended     Increase /  
    April 30, 2009     April 30, 2008     (Decrease)  
Mineral exploration and evaluation $  616,559   $  815,022     (24.4)%
expenses                  
General and administrative   928,672     4,330,816     (78.6)%  
Depreciation and amortization   117,270     100,000     17.3%  
Total Expenses $  1,662,501   $  5,245,838     (68.3)%  

Our operating expenses for the quarter ended April 30, 2009 decreased as compared to the year ended April 30, 2009. The substantial decrease in our operating expenses primarily relates to $3,583,702 in compensation expense recognized for stock options issued in February 2008.

Mineral exploration and evaluation expenses consisted of rent and processing extraction costs in connection with our Phoenix Facility. In addition, we also incurred consulting fees and labor expenses on our Piute Valley Property and Phoenix Facility.

Our general and administrative expenses primarily consisted of: (i) monthly consulting fees paid to our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Matheson, and to our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Mitchell; (ii) legal and accounting fees in

Page 16 of 33


connection with meeting our reporting requirements under the Exchange Act; and (iii) stock option compensation expense of $342,550.

We anticipate that our operating expenses will increase significantly as we implement our plan of operation for our Phoenix Facility and our Piute Valley Property.

Current Liabilities   (756,118 )   (818,431 )   (7.6)%  
Working Capital Deficit $  (754,299 ) $  (804,789 )   (6.3)%

As at April 30, 2009, we had a working capital deficit of $754,299 as compared to a working capital deficit of $804,789 as at our year ended April 30, 2008. Our working capital deficit decreased primarily as a result of a decrease in loans payable during the year ended April 30, 2009. We anticipate that our working capital deficit will increase due to the lack of capital to meet our ongoing expenditures, causing an increase in our accounts payable and in our primary source of financing of short term loans.

During the year ended April 30, 2009, we completed the following equity financings:

(a)

we issued 200,000 Units for gross proceeds of $100,000. Each Unit is comprised of one share of our common stock and one half of one share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase an additional share of common stock for a period of two years at an exercise price of $0.75 US per share;

   
(b)

we issued 450,760 Units to settle outstanding indebtedness in the amount of $135,228. Each Unit is comprised of one share of our common stock and one share purchase warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase an additional share of common stock for a period of two years at an exercise price of $0.50 US per share;

   
(c)

we issued 3,000,000 shares of common stock to one officer as compensation; and

   
(d)

we also issued an aggregate of 9,140,000 Units for proceeds of $457,000 and 13,736,840 Units to retire outstanding indebtedness of $686,842 under three separate private placements as follows: (i) 8,700,000 Units were issued to persons who represented that they were accredited investors as defined under Regulation D; (ii) 10,776,840 Units were issued to persons who represented that they were not U.S. Persons as defined by Regulation S; and (iii) 3,400,000 Units were issued pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act to a director and two companies affiliated with our directors. Each Unit is comprised of one share of our common stock and one share purchase warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase an additional share of common stock for a period of two years at an exercise price of $0.10 US per share.

Subsequent to our fiscal year ended April 30, 2009, we issued an aggregate of 2,500,000 Units. 2,000,000 Units were issued to a person who represented that they were not U.S. Persons as defined by Regulation S to settle outstanding indebtedness in the amount of $100,000, and 500,000 Units were issued to a director pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act to settle outstanding indebtedness in the amount of $25,000. Each Unit is

Page 17 of 33


comprised of one share of our common stock and one share purchase warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase an additional share of common stock for a period of two years at an exercise price of $0.10 US per share.

Financing Requirements

Currently, we do not have sufficient financial resources to complete our plan of operation for the next twelve months. As such, our ability to complete our plan of operation is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional financing in the near term.

Our Board of Directors is currently seeking to arrange financing to fund our operations. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to complete the sale of any additional securities under a private placement offering. Even if we complete the sale of all of the securities offered under a private placement offering, there is no assurance that this will satisfy all of our working capital requirements for the next twelve months or that these funds will be sufficient to complete our planned exploration and development programs.

We anticipate continuing to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our planned mining, development and exploration activities.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We have identified a certain accounting policy, described below, that is most important to the portrayal of our current financial condition and results of operations. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 1 to our audited financial statements included in this Annual Report.

Mineral Rights – We capitalize acquisition and option costs of mineral property rights. The amount capitalized represents the fair value at the time the mineral rights were acquired. The accumulated costs of acquisition for properties that are developed to the stage of commercial production will be amortized using the unit-of-production method.

Exploration Costs – Mineral exploration costs are expensed as incurred.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors
Royal Mines and Minerals Corp.
Henderson, Nevada

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Royal Mines and Minerals Corp., an exploration stage company, as of April 30, 2009 and April 30, 2008, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and for the period July 13, 2005 (date of inception) to April 30, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of Royal Mines and Minerals Corp.’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides 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 Royal Mines and Minerals Corp., an exploration stage company, as of April 30, 2009 and April 30, 2008, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended, and for the period July 13, 2005 (date of inception) to April 30, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in The United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are described in Note 1. Absent the successful completion of one of these alternatives, the Company’s operating results will increasingly become uncertain. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

APRIL 30, 2009

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, HISTORY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES

Basis of presentation – These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company’s fiscal year-end is April 30.

Description of Business – The Company is considered an exploration stage company. The Company's primary objectives are to 1) generate ongoing revenues from the licensing of its proprietary, environmentally-friendly lixiviation process, 2) commercially extract and refine precious and base metals from others and its own mining assets, and 3) joint venture, acquire and develop projects in North America. The Company has not yet realized significant revenues from its primary objectives.

History – The Company was incorporated on December 14, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On June 13, 2007, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, Royal Mines Acquisition Corp., in the state of Nevada.

On October 5, 2007, Centrus Ventures Inc. (Centrus) completed the acquisition of Royal Mines Inc. (“Royal Mines”). The acquisition of Royal Mines was completed by way of a “triangular merger” pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated September 24, 2007 (the “First Merger Agreement”) among Centrus, Royal Mines Acquisition Corp. (“Centrus Sub”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Centrus, Royal Mines and Kevin B. Epp, the former sole executive officer and director of Centrus. On October 5, 2007, under the terms of the First Merger Agreement, Royal Mines was merged with and into Centrus Sub, with Centrus Sub continuing as the surviving corporation (the “First Merger”).

On October 6, 2007, a second merger was completed pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated October 6, 2007 (the “Second Merger Agreement”) between Centrus and its wholly owned subsidiary, Centrus Sub, whereby Centrus Sub was merged with and into Centrus, with Centrus continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Second Merger”). As part of the Second Merger, Centrus changed its name from “Centrus Ventures Inc.” to “Royal Mines And Minerals Corp.” (“the Company”). Other than the name change, no amendments were made to the Articles of Incorporation.

Under the terms and conditions of the First Merger Agreement, each share of Royal Mines’ common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the completion of the First Merger was converted into one share of Centrus’ common stock. As a result, a total of 32,183,326 shares of Centrus common stock were issued to former stockholders of Royal Mines. In addition, Mr. Epp surrendered 23,500,000 shares of Centrus common stock for cancellation in consideration of payment by Centrus of $0.001 per share for an aggregate consideration of $23,500. As a result, upon completion of the First Merger, the former stockholders of Royal Mines owned approximately 69.7% of the issued and outstanding common stock.

As such, Royal Mines is deemed to be the acquiring enterprise for financial reporting purposes. All acquired assets and liabilities of Centrus were recorded at fair value on the date of the acquisition, as required by the purchase method of accounting, and the tangible net liabilities were debited against equity of the Company. There are no continuing operations of Centrus from the date of acquisition.

Going Concern - As of April 30, 2009, the Company incurred cumulative net losses of approximately $7,665,712 from operations and has negative working capital of $754,299. The Company is still in the exploration stage and has not fully commenced its mining and metals extraction processing operations, raising substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company raising additional sources of capital and the successful execution of the Company’s objectives. The Company will seek additional

sources of capital through the issuance of debt or equity financing, but there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives.

   

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

   

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

   

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be a cash equivalent.

   

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are generally 3 to 10 years. The cost of repairs and maintenance is charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for property betterments and renewals are capitalized. Upon sale or other disposition of a depreciable asset, cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in other income (expense).

   

The Company periodically evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that may warrant revision of the estimated useful life of fixed assets or whether the remaining balance of fixed assets should be evaluated for possible impairment. The Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the fixed assets in measuring their recoverability.

   

Mineral Property Rights – The Company capitalizes acquisition and option costs of mineral property rights in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) abstract 04-02. The amount capitalized represents the fair value at the time the mineral rights are acquired. The accumulated costs of acquisition for properties that are developed to the stage of commercial production will be amortized using the unit-of-production method.

   

Exploration Costs – Mineral exploration costs are expensed as incurred.

   

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets – The Company evaluates the carrying value of acquired mineral property rights in accordance with EITF 04-03, “Mining Assets: Impairment and Business Combinations,” using the Value Beyond Proven and Probable (VBPP) method. The fair value of a mining asset generally includes both VBPP and an estimate of the future market price of the minerals.

   

The Company reviews and evaluates long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Asset impairment is considered to exist if the total estimated future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, are less than the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. An impairment loss is measured and recorded based on the discounted estimated future cash flows. Future cash flows are based on estimated quantities of recoverable minerals, expected gold and other commodity prices (considering current and historical prices, price trends and related factors), production levels and cash costs of production, capital and reclamation costs, all based on detailed engineering life-of-mine plans.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, HISTORY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES (continued)

   

In estimating future cash flows, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of future cash flows from other asset groups. With the exception of other mine-related exploration potential and exploration potential in areas outside of the immediate mine-site, all assets at a particular operation are considered together for purposes of estimating future cash flows. In the case of mineral interests associated with other mine-related exploration potential and exploration potential in areas outside of the immediate mine-site, cash flows and fair values are individually evaluated based primarily on recent exploration results.

   

Various factors could impact the Company’s ability to achieve forecasted production schedules from proven and probable reserves. Additionally, commodity prices, capital expenditure requirements and reclamation costs could differ from the assumptions used in the cash flow models used to assess impairment. The ability to achieve the estimated quantities of recoverable minerals from exploration stage mineral interests involves further risks in addition to those factors applicable to mineral interests where proven and probable reserves have been identified, due to the lower level of confidence that the identified mineralized material can ultimately be mined economically. Material changes to any of these factors or assumptions discussed above could result in future impairment charges to operations.

   

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 107, “Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requires the Company to disclose, when reasonably attainable, the fair market value of its assets and liabilities which are deemed to be financial instruments. The carrying amounts and estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature. The Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risk arising from these financial instruments.

   

Revenue Recognition – Revenues from processing ore are recognized when services are completed and billed. Revenue from licensing our technology is recognized over the term of the license agreement. Costs and expenses are recognized during the period in which they are incurred.

   

Research and Development - All research and development expenditures during the period have been charged to operations.

   

Earnings (Loss) Per Share - The Company follows SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share” and SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity,” which establish standards for the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for basic and diluted earnings per share for entities with publicly-held common shares and potential common stock issuances. Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. In computing diluted earnings per share, the weighted average number of shares outstanding is adjusted to reflect the effect of potentially dilutive securities, such as stock options and warrants. Common stock equivalent shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is antidilutive. Common stock equivalents, which include stock options and warrants to purchase common stock, that were not included in the computations of diluted earnings per share because the effect would be antidilutive were 32,216,840 and 4,340,000 on April 30, 2009 and April 30, 2008, respectively

   

Income Taxes - The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are

expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

   

On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under FIN 48, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more- likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company adopted the provision of FIN 48 on April 30, 2007, which did not have any impact on the financial statements.

   

For acquired properties that do not constitute a business as defined in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 98- 03 (“EITF 98-03”), “Determining Whether a Nonmonetary Transaction Involves Receipt of Productive Assets or of a Business”, deferred income tax liability is recorded on GAAP basis over income tax basis using statutory federal and state rates. The resulting estimated future federal and state income tax liability associated with the temporary difference between the acquisition consideration and the tax basis is computed in accordance with EITF 98-11 “Accounting for Acquired Temporary Differences in Certain Purchase Transactions That Are Not Accounted for as Business Combinations” and SFAS 109, and is reflected as an increase to the total purchase price which is then applied to the underlying acquired assets in the absence of there being a goodwill component associated with the acquisition transactions.

   

Reclassification - Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year’s financial statements to conform to the current year’s presentation, with no effect on previously reported net loss.

   

Expenses of Offering - The Company accounts for specific incremental costs directly to a proposed or actual offering of securities as a direct charge against the gross proceeds of the offering.

   

Stock-Based Compensation – On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment”, which replaces SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on the grant date fair value of the award. SFAS No. 123R was to be effective for interim or annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 15, 2005, but in April 2005 the SEC issued a rule that will permit most registrants to implement SFAS No. 123R at the beginning of their next fiscal year, instead of the next reporting period as required by SFAS No. 123R. The pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS No. 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. Under SFAS No. 123R, the Company must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at date of adoption. The transition methods include prospective and retroactive adoption option. Under the retroactive option, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. The prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock at the beginning of the first quarter of adoption of SFAS No. 123R, while the retroactive methods would record compensation expense for all unvested stock options and restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. The Company has adopted the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for the fiscal year beginning after April 30, 2006.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, HISTORY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES (continued)

   

New Accounting Pronouncements – In December 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 132(R)-1, “Employers’ Disclosures about Post-Retirement Benefit Plan Assets” (“FSP FAS 132(R)-1”), which amends FASB Statement No. 132 “Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Post-Retirement Benefits” (“FAS 132”), to provide guidance on an employer’s disclosures about plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other post- retirement plan. The objective of FSP FAS 132(R)-1 is to require more detailed disclosures about employers’ plan assets, including employers’ investment strategies, major categories of plan assets, concentrations of risk within plan assets, and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets. FSP FAS 132(R)-1 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2009. Upon initial application, the provisions of this FSP are not required for earlier periods that are presented for comparative purposes. The Company does not currently have a benefit pension or any post-retirement benefit plans and the Company has determined that the adoption of this statement will have little or no effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and disclosures.

   

In November 2008, the EITF reached consensus on Issue No. 08-6, “Equity Method Investment Accounting Considerations” (“EITF 08-6”), which clarifies the accounting for certain transactions and impairment considerations involving equity method investments. The intent of EITF 08-6 is to provide guidance on (i) determining the initial carrying value of an equity method investment, (ii) performing an impairment assessment of an underlying indefinite-lived intangible asset of an equity method investment, (iii) accounting for an equity method investee’s issuance of shares, and (iv) accounting for a change in an investment from the equity method to the cost method. EITF 08-6 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2009 and is to be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this statement on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

   

In June 2008, the EITF reached consensus on Issue No. 07-5, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” (“EITF 07-5”). EITF 07-5 clarifies the determination of whether an instrument (or an embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock, which would qualify as a scope exception under FASB Statement No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 133”). EITF 07-5 is effective for the Company’s fiscal years beginning May 1, 2009. Early adoption for an existing instrument is not permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of EITF 07-5 to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

   

The FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for that Asset Is Not Active”. The FSP clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. The FSP is effective October 10, 2008, and for prior periods for which financial statements have not been issued. Revisions resulting from a change in the valuation technique or its application should be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate following the guidance in SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”. However, the disclosure provisions in SFAS No. 154 for a change in accounting estimate are not required for revisions resulting from a change in valuation techniques or its application. The Company has determined that the adoption of this statement will have little or no effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and disclosures.

   

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. This statement is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with GAAP. This statement will be effective 60 days following the U.S. Securities and

Exchange Commission’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendment to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS 162 on its financial statements.

   

In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)” (“FSP APB 14-1”). FSP APB 14-1 applies to convertible debt instruments that, by their stated terms, may be settled in cash (or other assets) upon conversion, including partial cash settlement, unless the embedded conversion option is required to be separately accounted for as a derivative under FAS 133. Convertible debt instruments within the scope of FSP APB 14-1 are not addressed by the existing APB 14. FSP APB 14-1 requires that the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments within the scope of FSP APB 14-1 be separately accounted for in a manner that reflects the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. This requires an allocation of the convertible debt proceeds between the liability component and the embedded conversion option (i.e., the equity component). The difference between the principal amount of the debt and the amount of the proceeds allocated to the liability component will be reported as a debt discount and subsequently amortized to earnings over the instrument’s expected life using the effective interest method. FSP APB 14-1 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2009 and will be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company does not currently have convertible debt instruments and the Company has determined that the adoption of this statement will have little or no effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and disclosures.

   

In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP 142-3”) which amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FASB Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“FAS 142”). The intent of this FSP is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FAS 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under FASB Statement No. 141, “Business Combinations” (“FAS 141”). FSP 142-3 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2009 and will be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date. The Company does not expect the adoption of FSP 142-3 to have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

   

On March 19, 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” This statement is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company has determined that the adoption of this statement will have little or no effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and disclosures.

   

In February 2008, the FASB staff issued Staff Position No. 157-2 “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (“FSP FAS 157-2”). FSP FAS 157-2 delayed the effective date of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The provisions of FSP FAS 157-2 are effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2009. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

   

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations,” which amends SFAS No. 141, and provides revised guidance for recognizing and measuring identifiable assets and goodwill acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. It also provides disclosure requirements to

enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2009 and is to be applied prospectively. This statement will impact how the Company accounts for future business combinations and the Company’s future financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

   

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of ARB No. 51” which establishes accounting and reporting standards pertaining to ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest, and the valuation of any retained noncontrolling equity investment when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS No. 160 also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. SFAS No. 160 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning May 1, 2009. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adopting this statement on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

   

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB SFAS No. 115,” which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 does not affect any existing accounting literature that requires certain assets and liabilities to be carried at fair value, nor eliminate disclosure requirements included in other accounting standards, including requirements for disclosures about fair value measurements included in SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” and SFAS No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.” SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of this statement had little or no effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and disclosures.

On April 2, 2007 the Company entered into a Technology and Asset Purchase Agreement (“NVRM Agreement”) with Robert H. Gunnison and New Verde River Mining Co. Inc. (“NVRM”), whereby the Company acquired equipment and the technology for lixiviation of metals from ore utilizing thiourea stabilization (“Intellectual Property”). The equipment and intellectual property were acquired with the issuance of 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s $0.10 per share common stock and a future cash payment of $300,000, for a purchase price of $500,000. A cash payment of $175,000 was paid in May 2007, and the balance of $102,683 ($125,000 less debt and payables assumed), on or before June 30, 2010. The purchase price was

allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. The intellectual property was valued at $200,000 and will be amortized quarterly on a straight-line basis over a 5 year period starting with the recognition of revenue from the licensing of the Company’s technology.

MINERAL PROPERTIES

   

As of April 30, 2009 and 2008, mineral properties totaling $29,000 and $22,500, respectively, consist of twenty (20) and twenty-four (24) mining claims located south of Searchlight, Nevada in the Piute Valley. On January 28, 2007, the Company entered into mineral option agreements to acquire an 87.5% interest in twenty-four (24) mining claims with the issuance of 1,050,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on the date of signing of the option agreement, with the provision that the Company issue an additional 420,000 and 210,000 shares on the fifth anniversary and tenth anniversary, respectively, of the signing of the option agreement if the Company wishes to acquire legal interest to the mining claims. The transaction was valued at an agreed upon price of $10,500. Annual renewal fees are capitalized. Each mining claim is comprised of 160 acres. In August 2008 the Company did not pay the renewal fee on four (4) of the mining claims after confirming title to the claims were void due to segregation by the BLM.

   

On March 16, 2007 the Company entered into a lease agreement of property with one (1) mining claim, for a term of twenty years, for exploration and potential mining production on 20 acres in Searchlight, Nevada. The Company paid a one-time signing bonus of $5,000 upon execution of the agreement and pays a $4,000 rental fee each August. The Company will also pay an annual royalty equal to five (5) percent of the net profit from any mining production on the property.

   

Mining claims are capitalized as tangible assets in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force abstract 04-02. Upon completion of a bankable feasibility study, the claims will be amortized using the unit-of-production method over the life of the claim. If the Company does not continue with exploration after the completion of the feasibility study, the claims will be expensed at that time.

STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS

     

2009 Stock Incentive Plan - Effective January 12, 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan"). The 2009 Plan allows the Company to grant certain options to its directors, officers, employees and eligible consultants. A total of 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are available for issuance under the 2009 Plan. However, the maximum aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be optioned and sold under the 2009 Plan will increase effective on the first day of each of the Company’s fiscal quarters by an amount equal to the lesser of: (a) 10% of the total increase in the number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal quarter; or (b) such lesser number of shares of common stock as may be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors.

     

The 2009 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options. Incentive stock options granted under the Plan are those intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" as defined under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. However, in order to qualify as "incentive stock options" under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, the 2009 Plan must be approved by the stockholders of the Company within 12 months of its adoption. The 2009 Plan has not been approved by the Company's stockholders. Non- qualified stock options granted under the 2009 Plan are option grants that do not qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.

     

The 2009 Plan provides that the exercise price for incentive stock options be the fair market value of the stock at the date of the grant and the option price for non-qualified stock options be no less than 75% of the fair market value of the stock at the date of the grant. The maximum term of an option shall be established by the Board of Directors or, if not so established, shall be ten years from the grant date. Options granted under the 2009 Plan become exercisable and expire as determined by the Board of Directors.

     

On January 16, 2009, the Company granted non-qualified stock options under the 2009 Plan for the purchase of 5,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.05 per share. The nonqualified stock options were granted to various officers, directors and consultants, are fully vested and expire January 15, 2011.

     

From the date of inception through January 31, 2009, compensation expense related to the granting of stock options under the 2009 Plan was $342,550 and is included in general and administrative expense. The

STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS (continued)

   

Company calculated the value of the options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: a risk-free rate of 1.00%, volatility of 316%, estimated life of 2 years and closing stock price of $0.07 per share on the date of grant.

   

2008 Stock Incentive Plan - Effective February 1, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan"). The 2008 Plan will allow the Company to grant certain options to its directors, officers, employees and eligible consultants. A total of 4,600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are available for issuance under the 2008 Plan. However, the maximum aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be optioned and sold under the 2008 Plan will increase effective on the first day of each of the Company’s fiscal quarters by an amount equal to the lesser of: (a) 10% of the total increase in the number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal quarter; or (b) such lesser number of shares of common stock as may be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors.

   

The 2008 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options. Incentive stock options granted under the Plan are those intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" as defined under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. However, in order to qualify as "incentive stock options" under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, the Plan must be approved by the stockholders of the Company within 12 months of its adoption. The Plan has not been approved by the Company's stockholders. Non- qualified stock options granted under the Plan are option grants that do not qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.

   

The 2008 Plan provides that the exercise price for incentive stock options be the fair market value of the stock at the date of the grant and the option price for non-qualified stock options be no less than 75% of the fair market value of the stock at the date of the grant. The maximum term of an option shall be established for that option by the Board of Directors or, if not so established, shall be ten years from the grant date. Options granted under the 2008 Plan become exercisable and expire as determined by the Board of Directors.

   

On February 1, 2008, the Company granted non-qualified stock options under the 2008 Plan for the purchase of 4,340,000 shares of common stock at $0.74 per share. The nonqualified stock options were granted to various officers, directors and consultants, are fully vested and expire January 31, 2010.

   

From the date of inception through April 30, 2009, compensation expense related to the granting of stock options under the 2008 Plan was $3,583,702 and is included in general and administrative expense. The Company calculated the value of the options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: a risk-free rate of 4.50%, volatility of 107%, estimated life of 2 years and closing stock price of $1.22 per share on the date of grant.

ITEM 9.               CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

On October 6, 2007, as a result of our acquisition of RMI, we engaged Sarna & Company, Certified Public Accountants (“Sarna”), the independent accountants of our accounting successor, as our principal independent accountants. In addition, on October 9, 2007, we received the resignation of Telford Sadovnick, P.L.L.C., Certified Public Accountants (“Telford”), as our independent accountants. Telford resigned as our independent auditors because it withdrew its registration with the public Company Accountability Oversight Board and can no longer audit U.S. issuers. The Board of Directors, by written resolution, approved the engagement of Sarna, the accounting successor, and accepted the resignation of Telford.

Telford’s reports on our financial statements for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2007 and April 30, 2006 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they modified or qualified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles with the exception of a statement regarding the uncertainty of our ability to continue as a going concern.

There have been no disagreements between the Company and Telford on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Telford, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their report for the financial statements for the past year.

The Company has received a letter from Telford which provides that Telford is in agreement with the disclosure made by the Company regarding Telford.

ITEM 9A(T).        CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of April 30, 2009 (the “Evaluation Date”). This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the Evaluation Date.

Disclosure controls and procedures are those controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for us, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.

Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of its management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Page 20 of 33


Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as of the Evaluation Date, based on the framework set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on its assessment, management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of the Evaluation Date.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As of the Evaluation Date, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2009 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

Our management does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures, nor its internal control over financial reporting, will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving its objectives and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective at a reasonable, but not absolute, assurance level. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to the costs.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no assessment of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, will be detected. Inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate or the controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions.

In 1964 and 1965 he attended McGill University in Montreal, Quebec where he earned a degree as a Chartered Accountant at the Quebec Institute of Chartered Accountants. He was admitted into the British Columbia Institute of Chartered Accountants in 1965. From 1965 to 1967 he worked as a Chartered Accountant with Coopers and Lybrand in Vancouver, BC. He is presently a member of the British Columbia Institute of Chartered Accountants and the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants. Mr. Matheson was a member of the board of directors of Searchlight Minerals Corp. (OTCBB) from February 10, 2005 to February 16, 2007. Mr. Matheson has also been a director and officer of numerous private companies that have been involved in the research and development of precious metals in the southern Nevada area.

Jason S. Mitchell was appointed our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer on February 1, 2008, our Secretary on November 19, 2008, and a member of our Board of Directors on May 28, 2008. Mr. Mitchell is a Certified Public Accountant, who has, since April, 2005, been a self-employed financial consultant, providing consulting services and preparing financial statements for numerous companies. From October 1998 to October 2004, Mr. Mitchell was a corporate controller, principal accounting officer, vice president and manager of merger and acquisitions for USI Holdings Corporation, a Nasdaq listed insurance brokerage firm where Mr. Mitchell oversaw financial reporting responsibilities, prepared SEC annual and quarterly filings, generated financial models and assisted in its October 2002 $90 million initial public offering.

Michael C. Boyko was appointed a member of our Board of Directors on April 2, 2009.

Mr. Boyko is also Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) certified.

COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Our board of directors does not maintain a separately-designated standing audit committee. As a result, all of our directors act as our audit committee. K. Ian Matheson, our Chief Executive Officer and President, and Jason S. Mitchell, our Chief Financial Officer, each meet the definition of an “audit committee financial expert.” Mr. Matheson and Mr. Mitchell are not independent as they act as executive officers.

We presently do not have a compensation committee, nominating committee, an executive committee of our board of directors, stock plan committee or any other committees.

TERMS OF OFFICE

Our directors are elected to hold office until the next annual meeting of the shareholders and until their respective successors have been elected and qualified. Our executive officers are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until removed by our board of directors or until their successors are appointed.

CODE OF ETHICS

We adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to our executive officers and directors, which is a “code of ethics” as defined by applicable rules of the SEC. Our Code of Ethics was attached as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2007, filed on July 30, 2007. If we make any amendments to our Code of Ethics other than technical, administrative, or other non-substantive amendments, or grant any waivers, including implicit waivers, from a provision of our Code of Ethics to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or certain other finance executives, we will disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver, its effective date and to whom it applies in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our securities (“Reporting Persons”), to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Reporting Persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all forms they file pursuant to Section 16(a). Based solely on our review of such reports received by the Company, other than as described below, no other reports were required for those persons.

The following persons have failed to file, on a timely basis, the identified reports required by Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934:

2008 Stock Incentive Plan

On February 1, 2008, we established our 2008 Stock Option Plan (the “2008 Plan”). The purpose of the 2008 Plan is to advance the interests of our company and our stockholders by strengthening our ability to attract, retain and motivate key corporate personnel who contribute to our long term success and to provide incentives which are linked directly to increases in stock value which will inure to the benefit of all our stockholders. The 2008 Plan is administered by our Board of Directors or, if designated by the Board of Directors, by a committee of two or more non-employee directors appointed by the Board of Directors (the "Administrator"). Subject to the provisions of the 2008 Plan, the Administrator has full and final authority to grant the awards of stock options and to determine the terms and conditions of the awards and the number of shares to be issued pursuant thereto.

All of our employees and members of our Board of Directors are eligible to be granted options. Individuals who have rendered or are expected to render advisory or consulting services to us are also eligible to receive options under the 2008 Plan, provided that they render bona fide services that are not in connection with the offer and sale of our securities in a capital-raising transaction and that they do not directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for our securities.

Upon its adoption, the maximum number of shares of our common stock with respect to which options or rights could be granted under the 2008 Plan was 4,600,000 shares. The 2008 Plan contains provisions that allow for increases in the number of shares of our common stock that may be the subject of options granted under the 2008 Plan. Each fiscal quarter, commencing May 1, 2008, the total number of shares that may be optioned and sold under the Plan may increase by an amount equal to the lesser of:

  (a)

10% of the total increase in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the previous fiscal quarter; or

     
  (b)

such lesser number of shares as may be determined by our directors.

Options granted under the 2008 Plan are non-transferable, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

Page 26 of 33


The Plan terminates on February 1, 2018, unless sooner terminated by action of the Board of Directors. No option is exercisable by any person after such expiration. If an award expires, terminates or is canceled, the shares of our common stock not purchased thereunder shall again be available for issuance under the 2008 Plan. On March 31, 2009, our Board of Directors determined that: (a) no new options may be granted under the 2008 Plan; and (b) the 2008 Plan is to be terminated once all outstanding options granted under the 2008 Plan have been exercised, expired or otherwise terminated.

2009 Stock Incentive Plan

Effective January 12, 2009, our Board of Directors adopted our 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2009 Plan"). The purpose of the 2009 Plan is to enhance our long-term stockholder value by offering opportunities to our directors, officers, employees and eligible consultants (“Participants”) to acquire and maintain stock ownership in us in order to give these persons the opportunity to participate in our growth and success, and to encourage them to remain in our service.

The 2009 Plan allows us to grant options to our officers, directors and employees. In addition, we may grant options to individuals who act as our consultants, so long as those consultants do not provide services connected to the offer or sale of our securities in capital raising transactions and do not directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for our securities.

A total of 5,000,000 shares of our common stock are available for issuance under the 2009 Plan. However, the maximum aggregate number of shares of our common stock that may be optioned and sold under the 2009 Plan will increase effective on the first day of each of our fiscal quarters, after February 1, 2009, by an amount equal to the lesser of:

  (a)

10% of the total increase in the number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal quarter; or

     
  (b)

such lesser number of shares of common stock as may be determined by our Board of Directors.

The 2009 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options. Incentive stock options granted under the 2009 Plan are those intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” as defined under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. However, in order to qualify as “incentive stock options” under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, the 2009 Plan must be approved by our stockholders within 12 months of its adoption. The 2009 Plan has not been approved by our stockholders. Non-qualified stock options granted under the 2009 Plan are option grants that do not qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Options granted under the 2009 Plan are non-transferable, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

The 2009 Plan terminates on January 11, 2019, unless sooner terminated by action of our Board of Directors. No option is exercisable by any person after such expiration. If an award expires, terminates or is canceled, the shares of our common stock not purchased thereunder shall again be available for issuance under the 2009 Plan.

On April 6, 2009, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration Number 333-158443) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to register 5,000,000 shares of our common stock available for issuance under the 2009 Plan.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information concerning the number of shares of our common stock owned beneficially as of July 27, 2009 by: (i) each person (including any group) known to us to own more than five percent (5%) of any class of our voting securities, (ii) each of our directors and each of our named executive officers (as defined under Item 402(m)(2) of Regulation S-K), and (iii) officers and directors as a group. Unless otherwise indicated, the shareholders listed possess sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares shown.

Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of common shares actually outstanding on July 27, 2009.

Page 29 of 33


Indebtedness

We have received a number of short-term loans from our directors, officers and companies controlled by our directors and officers. The funds received from these loans have been used by us as general working capital as we pursue our plan of operation. A summary of the amounts owed to related parties is provided below:

(a)

As at April 30, 2009 and 2008, we were indebted to Mr. Matheson for principal amounts totaling $164,064 and $300,025, respectively. The amounts bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, are unsecured and due on demand. Interest accrued during the years ended April 30, 2009 and 2008 in the amount of $38,205 and $6,020, respectively.

   

On February 24, 2009, we issued 8,000,000 units (each a “Unit”) to Mr. Matheson to settle outstanding indebtedness of $400,000. Each Unit is comprised of one share of our common stock and one share purchase warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase an additional share of common stock for a period of two years at an exercise price of $0.10 US per share.

   
(b)

As at April 30, 2009, we were indebted to Royal City Minerals Inc., a company controlled by Mr. Matheson, in the principal amount of $39,504. This amount is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due on demand. On February 24, 2009, we issued 400,000 Units to Royal City Minerals Inc. to settle outstanding indebtedness of $20,000.

   
(c)

As at April 30, 2009, we were indebted to Mr. Mitchell in the principal amount of $10,000. This amount is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due on demand. On February 24, 2009, we issued 1,000,000 Units to Mr. Mitchell to settle outstanding indebtedness of $50,000.

   
(d)

As at April 30, 2009, we were indebted to Pilot Plant Inc., a company controlled by Mr. Mitchell, in the principal amount of $20,000. This amount is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due on demand. On February 24, 2009, we issued 1,000,000 Units to Pilot Plant Inc. to settle outstanding indebtedness of $50,000.

   
(e)

As at April 30, 2009, we were indebted to Pass Minerals Inc., a company controlled by Mr. Matheson and Mr. Mitchell, in the principal amount of $31,000. This amount is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due on demand.

   
(f)

As at April 30, 2009, we were indebted to Gold Crown Minerals, a company controlled by Mr. Matheson and Mr. Mitchell, in the principal amount of $15,000. This amount is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due on demand.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board inter-dealer quotation system, which does not have director independence requirements. Under FINRA Rule 5605(a)(2), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the corporation. Michael C. Boyko is the only member of our Board of Directors who is not an executive officer or employee. As such, Mr. Boyko is our sole independent director.

As a result of our limited operating history and minimal resources, our management believes that it will have difficulty in attracting independent directors. In addition, we would likely be required to obtain directors and officers insurance coverage in order to attract and retain independent directors. Our management believes that the costs associated with maintaining such insurance is prohibitive at this time.

ITEM 14.             PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES.
