PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

SUBJECT TO COMPLETION

June 19, 2006

LINUX GOLD CORP.

25,526,270 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

We are registering 25,526,270 shares of common stock of Linux Gold Corp. (the “Common Stock”) for resale by certain shareholders (the “Selling Shareholders”). Of this amount, the Selling Shareholders may acquire 5,263,135 shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of secured convertible discount notes (the Notes”), 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of Series A Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Series A Warrants”) and 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of Series B Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Series B Warrants”) (the Series A and the Series B Warrants together the “Warrants”). Under our agreements with the Selling Stockholders, we have agreed to register an additional 12,763,135 shares to cover possible future downward adjustments to the conversion price of the Notes or exercise prices of the Warrants under certain circumstances.

The shares of Common Stock offered by the Selling Shareholders may be sold on the Over-the-Counter/Bulletin Board, in negotiated transactions with a broker-dealer or market maker as principal or in privately negotiated transactions not involving a broker or dealer, or by a combination of these methods. The dealers who effect sales under this prospectus may receive compensation from the Selling Shareholders in the form of discounts or commissions. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares. The registration of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part does not necessarily mean that any of those shares will ultimately be offered or sold. Our common shares trade on the OTCBB under the symbol “LNXGF.OB”. On June 14, 2006, the last reported closing price for our common shares as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board was US$0.31 per share. See Plan of Distribution beginning on page 13. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares.

Investing in our common shares involves a high degree of risk. You should purchase shares only if you can afford a complete loss of your investment. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 8.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the securities or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence.

The information in this prospectus is not complete and may be changed. These securities may not be sold until the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is effective. This preliminary prospectus is not an offer to sell nor does it seek an offer to buy these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted.

The date of this prospectus is June 19, 2006.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more detailed information and consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

The terms “Linux ”, “our company”, “the Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” as used in this prospectus refer to Linux Gold Corp. and its subsidiaries, including Linux, Inc., except where the context requires otherwise.

ABOUT LINUX GOLD CORP.

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

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

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

Our current plans are to joint venture and explore our mineral properties in Northern British Columbia, Alaska and China. The Company has acquired a 100% interest in the TY and ORO properties in British Columbia; has a 50% interest in the Fish Creek property in Alaska, which is optioned to Teryl Resources Corp.; staked 148 State of Alaska 160-acre MTRSC mining claims at several locations near Granite Mountain on Seward Peninsula, Alaska; and has an option on a private company, which has an option to earn up to 85% of a mining property in Hebei Province, China.

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

Our principal executive office is located at #1103 -11871 Horseshoe Way, Richmond, British Columbia, V7A 5H5., Canada and its phone number is (604) 278-5996.

CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, reflecting management’s current expectations. These statements relate to our future plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. We use words such as “may,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “believe,” “plan,” “intend,” “future” and other similar expressions to identify forward-looking

7


statements. These forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could contribute to differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below in “Risk Factors”, and elsewhere in this prospectus.

RISK FACTORS

Please consider carefully the following risk factors and uncertainties which we face in our business, and other information contained in this prospectus, before investing in our common shares.

The following is a summary of certain risks and uncertainties that we face in our business. These risk factors should be read in conjunction with other cautionary statements which we make in this prospectus and in our other public reports, registration statements and public announcements. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could suffer significantly. In such case, the trading price of our shares could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. Other risks and uncertainties not now known to us or that we think are immaterial may also impair our business.

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

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

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

We do not presently have sufficient financial resources or operating cash-flow to undertake solely all of our planned exploration and development programs. The development of our properties may therefore depend on obtaining a joint venture partners, and on our ability to obtain additional required financing. There is no assurance we will be successful in obtaining the required financing, the lack of which could result in the loss or substantial dilution of our interests (as existing or as proposed to be acquired) in our properties as disclosed herein. In addition, we have no experience in developing mining properties into production and our ability to do so will be dependent upon securing the services of appropriately experienced personnel or entering into agreements with other major mining companies which can provide such expertise.

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

The auditors’ report on the February 28, 2005 consolidated financial statements include additional comments for U.S. readers that states that conditions exist that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

8


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

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

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

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

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

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

-

where the U.S. court where the judgment was rendered had no jurisdiction according to applicable Canadian law;

 

-

the judgment was subject to ordinary remedy (appeal, judicial review and any other judicial proceeding which renders the judgment not final, or enforceable under the laws of the applicable state) or not final, conclusive or enforceable under the laws of the applicable state;

 

-

the judgment was obtained by fraud or in any manner contrary to natural justice or rendered in contravention of fundamental principles of procedure;

 

-

a dispute between the same parties, based on the same subject matter has given rise to a judgment rendered in a Canadian court or has been decided in a third country and the judgment meets the necessary conditions for recognition in a Canadian court;

 

-

the outcome of the judgment of the U.S. court was inconsistent with Canadian public policy;

 

-

the judgment enforces obligations arising from foreign penal laws or laws that deal with taxation or the taking of property by a foreign government; or

9



- there has not been compliance with applicable Canadian law dealing with the limitation of actions.

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO THE NATURAL RESOURCE INDUSTRY

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

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

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

10


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

Regulatory Approvals. Our operations require the procurement of numerous permits and compliance with an extensive number of codes and regulations. Mining, exploration and exploitation permits are required. While we believe that all requirements in this regard have been met, failure to comply with regulatory requirements could result in permits being withdrawn or suspended. Further, changes in these regulations or in their application may adversely affect our operations.

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

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

RISKS RELATING TO OUR CURRENT FINANCING ARRANGEMENT:

The issuance of shares upon conversion or exercise of any of the Notes or Warrants may cause immediate and substantial dilution of voting power to our existing stockholders and downward pressure of the price of our common stock. The issuance of shares upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of Warrants may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders since the Selling Shareholders may ultimately convert and sell the full amount issuable on conversion. There is no upper limit on the number of shares that may be issued which will have the effect of further diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders of our common stock. If these shares are sold into the market, it may have an adverse effect of the price of our common stock.

In the event that our stock price declines, the shares of common stock allocated for conversion or exercise of any of the Notes or Warrants registered pursuant to this prospectus may not be adequate and we may be required to file a subsequent registration statement covering additional shares. If the shares we have allocated and are registering herewith are not adequate and we are required to file an additional registration statement, we may incur substantial costs in connection therewith. Based on our current market price and the potential decrease in our market price and as a result of the issuance of shares upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of Warrants, we have made a good faith estimate as to the amount of shares of common stock that we are required to register and allocate for conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants. Accordingly, we will allocate and register 25,526,270 shares to cover the conversion of the Notes and exercise of Warrants. In the event that our stock price decreases, the shares of common stock we have allocated for conversion of the Notes and exercise of Warrants and are registering hereunder may not be adequate. If the shares we have allocated to the registration statement are not adequate and we are required to file an additional registration statement, we may incur substantial costs in connection with the preparation and filing of such registration statement.

If we are required for any reason to repay the Notes, we would substantially reduce our working capital, if available, or raise additional funds. Our failure to repay the Notes, if required, could result in legal action against us, which could require the sale of substantial assets. Any event of default under the Notes could require the early repayment of the Notes. We anticipate that the full amount of the Notes will be converted into shares of our common stock, in accordance with the terms of the Notes.

If we are required to repay the Notes, we would be required to use our limited working capital and raise additional funds. If we were unable to repay the Notes when required, the Note holders could commence

11


legal action against us to recover the amounts due. Any such action could require us to curtail or cease operations.

UNCERTAINTIES AND RISKS RELATING TO COMMON SHARES

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

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

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

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

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

Our right to issue additional capital stock at any time could have an adverse effect on your proportionate ownership and voting rights. We are authorized under our Articles of Incorporation to issue 200,000,000 common shares. Subject to compliance with applicable corporate and securities laws, we may issue these

12


shares under such circumstances and in such manner and at such times, prices, amounts and purposes as our board of directors may, in their discretion, determine to be necessary and appropriate. Your proportionate ownership and voting rights as a common shareholder could be adversely affected by the issuance of additional common shares, including a substantial dilution in your net tangible book value per share.

The table below lists each person who may resell shares pursuant to this prospectus and, in addition, sets forth the following:

  • The number of common shares outstanding beneficially owned by the investor prior to the offering;
  • the number of shares registered for sale in the offering;
  • the number of common shares to be owned by the investor after the offering, assuming it sells all of the shares registered for its benefit.

The term “beneficial ownership” includes shares over which the indicated beneficial owner exercises voting and/or investment power. The rules also deem common shares subject to options or warrants currently exercisable, or exercisable within 60 days, to be outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of the person holding the options or warrants, but they do not deem these common shares to be outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The applicable percentage of ownership for each shareholder is based on 68,537,773 common shares outstanding as of June 13, 2006, together with any applicable options, warrants or convertible debt for that shareholder. Except as otherwise indicated, we believe the beneficial owner of the common shares listed below, based on information furnished by it, has sole voting and investment power over the number of shares listed opposite its name. The terms of the Notes and the Warrants prevent us from issuing shares of our common stock in connection with the conversion of the Notes or the exercise of the Warrants, to the extent that such conversion or exercise would result in the holder and its affiliates (or any person whose beneficial ownership would be aggregated with the holder) beneficially owning or having the right to vote in excess of 4.99% of the outstanding shares of our common stock following such exercise.

          Because the SEC's definition of beneficial ownership is used in calculating the number of shares set forth in the "Shares Owned Before Offering" column in the table below and because of our agreement to register additional shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants, the information regarding beneficial ownership of our common stock by the Selling Stockholders will not equal the maximum number of shares being offered by such Selling Stockholders in the table below.

  * Less than 1% ownership

The Selling Shareholders acquired the Notes and Warrants in the ordinary course of business and at the time of the offering did not have any arrangements or understandings with any person to distribute the Common Stock. No Selling Shareholder has held a position as a director or executive officer nor had a material employment relationship with us or any of our affiliates, or our or their predecessors, within the past 3 years.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

          Each Selling Shareholder of the Common Stock of the Company and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common Stock on the OTCBB or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Shareholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

  • ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

  • block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

  • purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

  • an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

  • privately negotiated transactions;

  • settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;

  • broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Shareholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

14


  • a combination of any such methods of sale;

  • through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; or

  • any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

          The Selling Shareholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, rather than under this prospectus. Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Shareholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with NASD Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with NASD IM-2440. In connection with the sale of the Common Stock or interests therein, the Selling Shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume.

          The Selling Shareholders may also sell shares of the Common Stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Shareholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

          The Selling Shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Shareholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common Stock. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).

          The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the shares. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Shareholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

          Because Selling Shareholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. Each Selling Shareholder has advised us that they have not entered into any written or oral agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriter or broker-dealer regarding the sale of the resale shares. There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the Selling Shareholders.

          We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the shares may be resold by the Selling Shareholders without registration and without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule 144(e) under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to the prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless

15


they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

          Under applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Shareholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of the Common Stock by the Selling Shareholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Shareholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

Linux is a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the majority of its assets and operations are located outside the United States. We have appointed an agent to receive service of process with respect to any action brought against it in any federal or state court in the State of Washington. However, it may not be possible for holders to enforce outside the United States judgments against Linux obtained in the United States in any such actions, including actions predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws. In addition, the directors and officers of Linux are residents of Canada, and all or a substantial portion of the assets of those directors and officers are or may be located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for holders to effect service of process within the United States upon those persons, or to enforce against them judgments obtained in the United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal and state securities laws. We believe that there is uncertainty as to whether Canadian courts would enforce (i) judgments of United States courts obtained against Linux or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal and state securities laws or (ii) in original actions brought in Canada, liabilities against Linux or such persons predicated upon the United States federal and state securities laws.

CAPITALIZATION AND INDEBTEDNESS

The following table sets forth our capitalization as of February 28, 2006. Our capitalization is presented:

• on an actual basis;
• on a pro forma basis to reflect the issuance of 5,263,135 shares of common stock upon conversion of secured convertible discount notes in the aggregate principle amount of $2,105,254 and the issuance of 7,500,000 common shares upon the exercise of warrants for gross proceeds of $3,800,000.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

We are authorized to issue 200,000,000 common shares with no par value. As of June 13, 2006 there were 68,537,773 common shares issued, which are held by 150 registered shareholders. Holders of common shares are entitled to one vote for each share they own on any matter that is submitted to a shareholder vote. Our board of directors may declare dividends for distribution to holders of common shares.

All of the common shares are validly issued and have been fully paid for. At meetings of shareholders two persons present in person or by proxy, and each owning at least one common share, constitute a quorum for purposes of selecting a chairman for the meeting or adjourning the meeting. For transacting any business at a shareholders meeting, two persons present in person or by proxy and holding at least five percent of our issued shares must be present.

A summary of Canadian laws and regulations that affect the rights of U.S. shareholders and certain U.S. federal tax implications of owning and selling our shares can be found in Item 10. contained in the Annual Report on Form 20-F/A for the year ended February 28, 2005.

MARKETS

Our shares trade (since January, 2000) on The OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol LNXGF.OB (formerly LNXWF, and LNXGF). Our shares traded during the periods and at the prices set out below on The OTC Bulletin Board.

The shares offered hereunder by the Selling Shareholders consist of 25,526,270 common shares of Linux Gold Corp. We expect that the Selling Shareholders will sell the Common Stock at various times during the period in which the registration statement of which this prospectus is part is effective.

17


We expect that the sales will take place on the Over-the-Counter/Bulletin Board and that the selling price will be determined by the then-current market price for Linux Gold Corp.'s stock.

None of our shareholders hold any pre-emptive purchase rights. Therefore, we have no control or input over how the shares will be offered or sold.

The following table shows the annual high and low closing prices of our stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board during the last five fiscal years as follows:

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our ordinary shares or other securities. We currently expect to retain all future earnings, if any, to finance the development of our business, and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination relating to dividend policy will be made by our board of directors and will depend on a number of factors, including future earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and future prospects and other factors the board of directors may deem relevant.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Linux will not receive any proceeds as a result of sales of the Common Stock by the Selling Shareholders. If any of the Warrants are exercised (excluding Warrants exercised on a cashless basis), Linux will receive the exercise price of the Warrants which will be used for working capital. The maximum aggregate exercise price of the Warrants is $3,800,000. The Selling Shareholders are under no obligation to exercise the Warrants and there can be no assurance that the Selling Shareholders will do so. If any of the Notes are converted, Linux will not receive the exercise price in cash, but its indebtedness under the Notes will be reduced.

EXPENSES

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the Common Stock, including the registration fees. Selling Shareholders will pay any underwriting commissions and expenses, brokerage fees, transfer taxes and the fees and expenses of their attorneys and other experts. Set forth below are expenses to be paid by us in connection with distribution of the Common Stock being registered on behalf of the Selling Shareholders. All amounts shown are estimates except for the Securities Exchange Commission registration fees.

Securities and Exchange Commission Registration Fee $1,263.72
Legal Fees and Expenses $10,000
Blue Sky Fees and Expenses $1000.00
Accounting Fees $2000.00

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Part II. Information Not Required in Prospectus

Item 8.      Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The laws of British Columbia and Linux Gold Corp.’s Articles permit indemnification of its directors and officers against certain liabilities, which would include liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Under Sections 159 to 165 of the British Columbia Business Corporations Act (the "BCA"), Linux Gold is permitted to indemnify a past or present director or officer of Linux Gold without obtaining prior court approval in respect of an “eligible proceeding”. An “eligible proceeding” includes any legal proceeding relating to the activities of the individual as a director or officer of Linux Gold. However, under the BCA, Linux Gold will be prohibited from paying an indemnity if:

(a) the party did not act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of Linux Gold;
(b) the proceeding was not a civil proceeding and the party did not have reasonable grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful; and
(c) the proceeding is brought against the party by Linux Gold or an associated corporation.

Linux Gold may indemnify directors, officers, employees and agents, subject to the limits imposed under the BCA.

Item 10. Undertakings

     (a)      Rule 415 Offering.

Linux Gold Corp. hereby undertakes:

(1)      To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

                    (i)      To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

                    (ii)    To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or

23


high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more that 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

                    (iii)    To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

          provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

          (2)      That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

          (3)      To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

          (4)      To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering; provided that with respect to a registration statement on Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or Rule 3-19 if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Form F-3.

     (b)      The undersigned registrant hereby further undertakes that, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     (c)      Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to existing provisions or arrangements whereby the registrant may indemnify a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant against liabilities arising under the Securities Act, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
