(An Exploration Stage Company)

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2014

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Activities, History and Organization:

DynaResource, Inc. (The “Company” or “DynaResource”) was organized September 28, 1937, as a California corporation under the name of West Coast Mines, Inc.  In 1998, the Company re-domiciled to Delaware and changed its name to DynaResource, Inc.  The Company is in the business of acquiring, investing in, and developing precious metal properties, and the production of precious metals.

In 2000, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, DynaResource de México S.A. de C.V., chartered in México (“DynaMéxico”).  This Company was formed to acquire, invest in and develop resource properties in México.  In 2005, the Company formed DynaResource Operaciones de San Jose De Gracia S.A. de C.V. (“DynaOperaciones”), and acquired effective control of Mineras de DynaResource, S.A de C.V. (formerly Minera Finesterre S.A. De C.V., “MinerasDyna”). The Company owned 25% of MinerasDyna and acquired effective control of MinerasDyna by acquiring the option to purchase the remaining 75% of the Shares of MinerasDyna. The Company finalized the option and acquisition of MinerasDyna in January 2010, and now owns 100% of MinerasDyna.  The results of these subsidiaries are consolidated with those of the Company.

From January 2008 through March 2011, DynaMéxico issued 100 Variable Capital Series “B” shares to Goldgroup Resources, Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldgroup Mining Inc. Vancouver BC (“Goldgroup”), in exchange for Goldgroup’s contribution of $18,000,000 USD to DynaMéxico. At March 14, 2011, Goldgroup owned 50% of the outstanding capital shares of DynaMéxico.

On June 21, 2013, DynaResource acquired a Certificate for 300 Series “B” Variable Capital Shares of DynaMéxico, in exchange for the settlement of accounts receivable from DynaMéxico in the amount of $31,090,710 Mexican Pesos (approximately $2.4 million USD). After the issuance and receipt of the 300 Series B Shares, DynaUSA holds 80% of the total outstanding Capital of DynaMéxico.

The Company produced approximately $7,637,150 in revenues from production activities conducted during the years ended December 31, 2003 through 2006, and suspended this activity voluntarily to concentrate its efforts on exploration and development.  In accordance with that decision, as of January 1, 2007, the Company reentered the Exploration Stage and has presented its cumulative results since reentering the Exploration Stage, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915 “Development Stage Entities”, and will continue this presentation until it again has revenues from operations.

The Company elected to become a voluntary reporting issuer in Canada in order to avail itself of Canadian regulations regarding reporting for mining properties, more specifically, National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101). This regulation sets forth standards for reporting resources in a mineral property and is a standard recognized in the mining industry.

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements:

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the balance sheet, statement of operations, statement of stockholders’ equity and statement of cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. It is presumed that users of this interim financial information have read or have access to the audited financial statements and footnote disclosure for the preceding fiscal year contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year or any other interim period.  The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis and Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s December 31, 2013 Form 10-K.  

Significant Accounting Policies:

The Company’s management selects accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and adopts methods for their application.  The application of accounting principles requires the estimating, matching and timing of revenue and expense. The accounting policies used conform to generally accepted accounting principles which have been consistently applied in the preparation of these financial statements.

10
 

The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud.  The Company's system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that: 1) recorded  transactions  are valid;  2) valid  transactions  are recorded;  and  3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods presented.

Basis of Presentation:

The Company prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Principles of Consolidation:

The financial statements include the accounts of DynaResource, Inc. as well as DynaResource de México, S.A. de C.V., DynaResource Operaciones S.A. de C.V. and Mineras de DynaResource S.A. de C.V.  All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated.  All amounts are presented in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise stated.

Emerging Growth Company Critical Accounting Policy Disclosure:

The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” under the 2012 JOBS Act. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards.   As an emerging grown company, the Company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.  The Company may elect to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period in the future.

Foreign Currency Translation:

The functional currency for the subsidiaries of the Company is the Mexican peso.  As a result, the financial statements of the subsidiaries have been re-measured from Mexican pesos into U.S. dollars using (i) current exchange rates for monetary asset and liability accounts, (ii) historical exchange rates for nonmonetary asset and liability accounts, (iii) historical exchange rates for revenues and expenses associated with nonmonetary assets and liabilities and (iv) the weighted average exchange rate of the reporting period for all other revenues and expenses.  In addition, foreign currency transaction gains and losses resulting from U.S. dollar denominated transactions are eliminated.  The resulting re-measured gain or loss is reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity (comprehensive income (loss)).

The financial statements of the subsidiaries should not be construed as representations that Mexican pesos have been, could have been or may in the future be converted into U.S. dollars at such rates or any other rates.

Relevant exchange rates used in the preparation of the financial statements for the subsidiaries are as follows for the periods ended March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (Mexican pesos per one U.S. dollar): 

     

 

    Mar 31, 2014 Dec 31, 2013
       
Current exchange rate Pesos 13.04 13.07
       
Weighted Average exchange rate for the period ended Pesos 13.05 12.75

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  At times, cash balances may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits.  At March 31, 2014, the Company had a balance of $161,561 that was in excess of the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000. The carrying amount approximates fair market value.

Accounts Receivable and Allowances for Doubtful Accounts:

The allowance for accounts receivable is recorded when receivables are considered to be doubtful of collection. No allowance has been established as all receivables were deemed to be fully collectable.

Foreign Tax Receivable:

Foreign Tax Receivable (IVA) is comprised of recoverable value-added taxes charged by the Mexican government on goods and services rendered.  Under certain circumstances, these taxes are recoverable by filing a tax return.  Amounts paid for IVA are tracked and held as receivables until the funds are remitted.  The total amounts of the IVA receivable as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and $392,435 and $296,038, respectively.

11
 

Inventory:

As the Company ceased mining production in 2006, there is no inventory as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Property:

Property is carried at cost.  Depreciation is provided over each asset’s estimated useful life.  Upon retirement and disposal, the asset cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the determination of the net income.  Expenditures for geological and engineering studies, maintenance and claim renewals are charged to expense when incurred.  Additions and significant improvements are capitalized and depreciated.

Mining Properties:

The Company is an ‘Exploration Stage’ company as defined in “SEC Industry Guide 7”.  Mining properties consist of 33 mining concessions covering approximately 69,121 hectares, at the San Jose de Gracia property, the basis of which are deferred until the properties are brought into production, at which time they will be amortized on the unit of production method based on estimated recoverable reserves.  The Company has elected to expense a minimal amount of amortization due to the effects of exploration activities on the recoverable reserves.  If it is determined that the deferred costs related to a property are not recoverable over its productive life, those costs will be written down to fair value as a charge to operations in the period in which the determination is made.  The amounts at which mineral properties and the related deferred costs are recorded do not necessarily reflect present or future values.

The recoverability of the book value of each property will be assessed annually for indicators of impairment such as adverse changes to any of the following: 

•  estimated recoverable ounces of gold, silver or other precious minerals;
•  estimated future commodity prices;

•  estimated expected future operating costs, capital expenditures and reclamation expenditures.

A write-down to fair value will be recorded when the expected future cash flow is less than the net book value of the property or when events or changes in the property indicate that carrying amounts are not recoverable.  This analysis will be completed as needed, and at least annually.  As of the date of this filing, no events have occurred that would require write-down of any assets.  As of March 31, 2014, no indications of impairment existed.

Pre Pilot-Production Costs:

The Company is in the process of rehabilitating the San Pablo mine, and refurbishing the Pilot Mill Facility and preparing for Pilot Production Operations. The costs associated with the rehabilitation, preparation, clean up and facilitation of this process are expensed as pre pilot-production costs.

Exploration Costs:

Exploration costs not directly associated with proven reserves on the mining concessions are charged to operations as incurred. Exploration, development, direct field costs and administrative costs are expensed in the period incurred.

The carrying amounts of the mining concessions are reviewed at each calendar year end to determine whether there is any indication of impairment or at other times if indications of impairment exist.

As of March 31, 2014, no indications of impairment existed.

Advertising Costs:

The Company incurred no advertising costs for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

Income Taxes:

Income from the parent company, DynaUSA, is taxed at regular corporate rates per the Internal Revenue Code.  Although the Company has tax loss carry-forwards (see Note 6), there is uncertainty as to utilization prior to their expiration.  Accordingly, the future income tax asset amounts have been fully offset by a valuation allowance. Income from the subsidiaries, are taxed at applicable Mexican tax law.

Use of Estimates:

In order to prepare financial statement in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management must make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and determines whether contingent assets and liabilities, if any, are disclosed in the financial statements. The ultimate resolution of issues requiring these estimates and assumptions could differ significantly from resolution currently anticipated by management and on which the financial statements are based.

12
 

Comprehensive Income:

ASC 220 “Comprehensive Income” establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements.    The Company’s comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income (loss), consisting of unrealized net gains and losses on the translation of the assets and liabilities of its foreign operations.  For the periods ended March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company’s components of comprehensive income were foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized losses on securities held for sale.

Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605-10, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements".   Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery or service has occurred, the sale price is fixed or determinable and receipt of payment is probable.

Revenues earned from the sale of precious metal concentrates are recognized as the title to the material is passed to the buyer upon delivery.

Earnings per Common Share:

Earnings (loss) per share are calculated in accordance with ASC 260 “Earnings per Share”.   The weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic earnings (loss) per share.  Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding.   Dilutive potential common shares are additional common shares assumed to be exercised.     Potentially dilutive common shares consist of stock options and are excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation in periods where the Company has incurred a net loss, as their effect would be considered anti-dilutive.

There were no potentially dilutive common stock equivalents as of March 31, 2014, therefore basic earnings per share equals diluted earnings per share for the period ended March 31, 2014.  The Company had 1,151,800 options and warrants outstanding at March 31, 2014. The Company also had convertible debt instruments as of March 31, 2014. As the Company incurred a net loss during the period ended March 31, 2014, the basic and diluted loss per common share is the same amount, as any common stock equivalents would be considered anti-dilutive.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:

The Company  does not expect  the  adoption  of  recently  issued  accounting pronouncements  to have a significant  impact on the Company’s  results of  operations, financial position or cash flows.

Reclassifications:

Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Amortization expense was $0 and $1,129 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

NOTE 4 – INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATE/RECEIVABLES FROM AFFILIATE

Through March 31, 2014, the Company loaned a total of $805,760 USD to DynaResource Nevada, Inc. (“DynaNevada”), a Nevada Corporation, which owns 100% of one operating subsidiary in México, DynaNevada de México, SA de CV. (“DynaNevada de México”).  The terms of the Note Receivable provided for a “Convertible Loan”, repayable at 5% interest over a 3 year period, and convertible at the Company’s option into common stock of DynaNevada at $.25 / Share.  DynaNevada is a related entity (affiliate), and through its subsidiary DynaNevada de México, has entered into an Option agreement with Grupo México (IMMSA) in México, for the exploration and development of approximately 3,000 hectares in the State of San Luis Potosi (“The Santa Gertrudis Property”). DynaNevada de México exercised the Option with IMMSA in March 2010, so that DynaNevada de México now owns 100% of the Santa Gertrudis Property. In June, 2010, DynaNevada de México acquired an additional 6,000 hectares in the State of Sinaloa (the “San Juan Property”).

On December 31, 2010, the Company exercised its option to convert the note receivable and other receivable from DynaNevada into shares of common stock at a rate of $.25 / Share. The Company received 3,223,040 shares, which represents approximately 19.95% of the outstanding shares of DynaNevada. At the time of the exchange, DynaNevada’s net book value was approximately $695,000, consisting of $30,000 cash and the remainder unproven mining properties. DynaNevada has a contingent liability arising from the purchase of one of the mining properties, which Management believes has no merit. Based upon the above, Management estimated the value of the Company’s DynaNevada shares as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 to be $70,000. Management believes the impairment is temporary, and therefore an unrealized loss of $735,760 has been recorded in other comprehensive income.

The Company has advanced funds to DynaNevada on a regular basis in order for DynaNevada to meets its basis filing and reporting obligations with the Mexican authorities relating to tax returns and paying taxes on its concessions. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the advances totaled $186,840 and $186,840, respectively. The amounts are carried in “other assets”.

          Less: Valuation Allowance   (9,954,752)   (9,500,294)
         Net Deferred Tax Asset  $0   $0 
           

 

The net deferred tax asset and benefit for the current year is generated primarily from the cumulative net operating loss carry-forward which is approximately $33,500,000 at March 31, 2014, and will expire in the years 2025 through 2031.

The realization of deferred tax benefits is contingent upon future earnings and is fully reserved at March 31, 2014.

NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENGIES

The Company is required to pay taxes in México in order to maintain concessions owned by DynaMéxico.  Additionally, the Company is required to incur a minimum amount of expenditures each year for all concessions held.  The minimum expenditures are calculated based upon the land area, as well as the age of the concessions.  Amounts spent in excess of the minimum may be carried forward indefinitely over the life of the concessions, and are adjusted annually for inflation.  Based on Management’s business plans, the Company does not anticipate that DynaMéxico will have any issues in meeting the minimum annual expenditures for the concessions, and DynaMéxico retains sufficient carry forward amounts to cover over 20 years of the minimum expenditure (as calculated at the 2012 minimum, adjusted for annual inflation of 4%).

In September 2008, the Company entered into a 37 month lease agreement for its corporate office.  In August, 2011 and then in August 2012, the Company entered into a one year extensions of the lease through August 31, 2014. The Company paid rent expense of $12,499 and $11,760 related to this lease for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The following is a schedule of minimum lease payments required under the existing lease as of March 31, 2013:

Year Ended December 31:  Amount

Litigation.

On December 27, 2012, the Company, and DynaMéxico, filed an Original Petition and Application for Temporary Injunction and Permanent Injunction in the 14th Judicial District Court of Dallas, Texas (the “Petition”) against Defendants Goldgroup Mining Inc., Goldgroup Resources Inc., and certain individuals acting in concert with Goldgroup (collectively “Goldgroup”). The Petition alleged, among other things, that Goldgroup has wrongfully used property, confidential information and data belonging to DynaMéxico and consistently failed to disclose several matters of material importance to the public.

17
 

The Petition requested that Goldgroup be enjoined from: (a) using or disseminating any confidential information belonging to DynaMéxico, (b) asserting that Goldgroup owns any interest in the San Jose de Gracia Project, rather than owning a common shares equity interest in DynaMéxico, (c) improperly disclosing that Goldgroup is the operator of the San Jose de Gracia Project, rather than Mineras de DynaResource SA de C.V. (“MinerasDyna”), and (d) failing to properly disclose that broad powers of attorney for acting on behalf of DynaMéxico are held by a DynaUSA senior executive.

The Petition further requested, among other things: (a) a temporary and permanent injunction; (b) declaratory relief; (c) disgorgement of funds alleged to have been improperly raised as a consequence of Goldgroup’s wrongful actions; (d) cancellation of shares of DynaMéxico stock held by Goldgroup; and, (d) actual and punitive damages.

At the time of the filing, the Company believed the Petition to be necessary in order to protect its shareholder interests in DynaMéxico and in order to protect the property, data, and assets of DynaMéxico.

Although Goldgroup challenged the jurisdiction of Texas to the filed litigation, Goldgroup has acknowledged that it owns no direct interest in the San Jose de Gracia Property, and it has acknowledged that Mineras de DynaResource SA de C.V. (“Mineras”), DynaUSA’s 100% owned subsidiary, is the exclusive operator of the San Jose de Gracia Project.  Additionally, recent developments in México in 2013, including: (1) the signing of the Exploitation Amendment Agreement (“EAA”) between Mineras and DynaMéxico; (2) the signing of a 20 year land lease agreement between Mineras and the Santa Maria Ejido Community surrounding the San Jose de Gracia Project; and (3) the acquisition by DynaUSA of a majority interest in DynaMéxico; protect against Goldgroup’s wrongfully obtaining and/or disseminating confidential data and information of DynaMéxico. 

These recent developments in México provided that the Dyna Parties non-suited the Texas action as announced by the Company on March 14, 2014, without prejudice to asserting or consolidating claims in México, as well as to contemplate additional claims or regulatory actions against Goldgroup in Canada.

On March 14, 2014 Goldgroup filed for arbitration, citing the Earn In Agreement dated September 1, 2006. The Company filed an answer on April 10, 2104 disputing that any issues exist which provide for arbitration.

Litigation in México – Company is Plaintiff

The Company, and DynaMéxico have filed several legal actions in México against Goldgroup Mining Inc., Goldgroup Resources Inc., certain individuals employed or previously employed by Minop, S.A. de C.V. (a Company operating in México and associated with Goldgroup Mining Inc.), and certain individuals retained as agents of Goldgroup Mining Inc. The Company and DynaMéxico are plaintiffs in the actions filed in México and the outcomes are pending.

The Company believes that no material adverse change will occur as a result of the actions taken, and the Company further believes that there is little to no potential for the assessment of a material monetary judgment against the Company for legal actions it has filed in México. For purposes of confidentiality, the Company does not provide more specific disclosure in this Form 10-Q.

Litigation – Company and/or Officers and Directors as Defendants

Other than the filing for arbitration by Goldgroup described above, The Company, nor its Officers and Directors have received any formal notice of any legal actions filed against them, nor is the Company or its Officers and Directors aware of any legal actions filed against them.

NOTE 13 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The ASC guidance for fair value measurements and disclosure establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).  The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 Inputs – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 Inputs – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 Inputs – Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.

As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company’s financial assets were measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs, with the exception of cash, which was valued using Level 1 inputs. A description of the valuation of the Level 3 inputs is discussed in Note 4.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those set forth on the forward looking statements as a result of the risks set forth in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, general economic conditions, and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward looking statements.

General

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which we refer to in this quarterly report as the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which we refer to in this quarterly report as the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact but rather reflect our current expectations, estimates and predictions about future results and events. These statements may use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “predict,” “project” and similar expressions as they relate to us or our management. When we make forward-looking statements, we are basing them on our management’s beliefs and assumptions, using information currently available to us. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including but not limited to, risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed in this quarterly report. Factors that can cause or contribute to these differences include those described under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Management Discussion and Analysis and Plan of Operation.”

If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may vary materially from what we projected. Any forward-looking statement you read in this quarterly report reflects our current views with respect to future events and is subject to these and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to our operations, results of operations, growth strategy and liquidity.

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING CANADIAN DISCLOSURE STANDARDS

The Company is an “OTC Reporting Issuer” as that term is defined in BC Multilateral Instrument 51-105, Issuers Quoted in the U.S. Over-the-Counter Markets, promulgated by the British Columbia Securities Commission. Accordingly, certain disclosure in this quarterly report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws. In Canada, an issuer is required to provide technical information with respect to mineralization, including reserves and resources, if any, on its mineral exploration properties in accordance with Canadian requirements, which differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) applicable to registration statements and reports filed by United States companies pursuant to the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. As such, information contained in this quarterly report concerning descriptions of mineralization under Canadian standards may not be comparable to similar information made public by United States companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the SEC and not subject to Canadian securities legislation. This quarterly report may use the terms “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources”. While these terms are recognized and required by Canadian securities legislation (under National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects), the SEC does not recognize them. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted to reserves. In addition, “inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of a measured mineral resource, indicated mineral resource or inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian securities legislation, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, although they may form, in certain circumstances, the basis of a “preliminary economic assessment” as that term is defined in National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of any reported measured, indicated, or inferred mineral resource estimates referred to herein or in the Technical Report are economically or legally mineable.

History

The Company was incorporated in the State of California on September 28, 1937, under the name West Coast Mines, Inc. In November 1998, the Company re-domiciled from California to Delaware and changed its name to DynaResource, Inc. (aka “DynaUSA”).

The Company is in the business of acquiring, investing in, and developing precious metals properties, and the production of precious metals.

Through its 80% owned Mexican subsidiary, DynaResource de México, S.A. de C.V. (“DynaMéxico”), the Company owns a portfolio of mining concessions that currently includes its interests in the San José de Gracia Project (“SJG”) in northern Sinaloa State, México. The SJG District covers 69,121 hectares (170,802 acres) on the west side of the Sierra Madre mountain range.

A wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Mineras de DynaResource S.A. de C.V. (“MinerasDyna”), entered into an operating agreement with DynaMéxico on April 15, 2005 and, as a consequence of that agreement and subsequent amendments to that agreement, is the named exclusive operating entity for the SJG Project.

In 2005, the Company formed another wholly owned subsidiary, DynaResource Operaciones, SA de C.V. (“DynaOperaciones”). DynaOperaciones entered into a personnel management agreement with MinerasDyna and, as a consequence of that agreement, is the exclusive management company for personnel and consultants involved at the SJG Project.

At incorporation of DynaMéxico, 100 shares of Fixed Capital Series “A” shares were issued with DynaUSA receiving 99 shares and Koy W. Diepholz receiving 1 share.

From January 2008 through March 2011, DynaMéxico issued 100 Variable Capital Series “B” Shares to Goldgroup Resources Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldgroup Mining Inc. Vancouver, BC. (“Goldgroup”), in exchange for Goldgroup’s contributing $18,000,000 USD to DynaMéxico. At the issuance of the 100 Series B Shares to Goldgroup, it owned 50% of the outstanding capital shares of DynaMéxico.

On May 17, 2013, DynaResource agreed to acquire a Certificate for 300 Series “B” Variable Capital Shares of DynaMéxico, in exchange for the settlement of accounts receivable from DynaMéxico in the amount of $31,090,710 Mexican Pesos (approximately $2.4 M USD). After the issuance and receipt of the 300 Series B Shares on June 21, 2013, DynaUSA holds 80% of the total outstanding Capital of DynaMéxico. DynaMéxico owns 100% of the San Jose de Gracia Project in northern Sinaloa, México ("SJG", and the "SJG Property"). (See table representation of the outstanding Capital of DynaMéxico below).

The exchange of shares by DynaMéxico for amounts payable to DynaUSA was unanimously approved by attending shareholders at a meeting of the shareholders of DynaMéxico, held on the second call for shareholder's meeting on May 17, 2013 in Mazatlan, Sinaloa, México. Of the total amount of $31,090,170 Mexican Pesos exchanged for the 300 Shares, $150,000 Mexican Pesos was accounted for at the nominal value of $500 Mexican Pesos per share, and the remaining balance of $30,940,710 Mexican Pesos was accounted for as a premium for the subscription of the shares agreed to be paid by DynaUSA.

The date of issuance of the 300 Series B Share Certificate was June 21, 2013. As a result of the issuance and exchange of the 300 Variable Capital shares for amounts owed to DynaUSA, the accounts payable amount owed by DynaMéxico to DynaUSA was retired in full. MinerasDyna, the 100 % owned subsidiary of DynaUSA, continues to carry an amount receivable from DynaMéxico of $2,800,000 USD at March 31, 2014, and MinerasDyna continues to make cash advances to DynaMéxico under the terms of the exploitation amendment agreement (“EAA”), below.

After the issuance of the 300 Series B Variable Capital shares of DynaMéxico to DynaUSA as described above, the current outstanding Capital of DynaMéxico is set forth in the table below:

 



DynaMéxico Shareholder
  Fixed Capital
Series "A" Shares
  Variable Capital
Series "B" Shares
  Total Capital Shares
(Series A and B)
DynaResource, Inc.   099   300   399
Koy W. Diepholz   001       001
Goldgroup Resources Inc.       100   100
     Total Capital Issued   100   400   500

DynaResource currently owns 80% of the outstanding common shares of DynaMéxico.

On May 15, 2013, MinerasDyna entered into an Exploitation Amendment Agreement (“EAA”) with DynaMéxico. The EAA grants to MinerasDyna the right to finance, explore, develop and exploit the SJG Property, in exchange for: (A) Reimbursement of all costs associated with financing, maintenance, exploration, development and exploitation of the SJG Property, which costs are to be charged and billed by MinerasDyna to DynaMéxico; and, (B) After Item (A) above, the receipt by MinerasDyna of 75 % of gross receipts received by DynaMéxico from the sale of all minerals produced from SJG, to the point that MinerasDyna has received 200 % of its advanced funds; and, (C) After Items (A) and (B) above; the receipt by MinerasDyna of 50 % of all gross receipts received by DynaMéxico from the sale of all minerals produced from SJG, and throughout the term of the EAA; and, (D) in addition to Items (A), (B), and (C) above, MinerasDyna shall receive a 2.5 % NSR (“Net Smelter Royalty”) on all minerals sold from SJG over the term of the EAA.

21
 

The EAA is the third and latest Amendment to the original Contract Mining Services and Mineral Production Agreement (the “Operating Agreement”), which was previously entered into by MinerasDyna with DynaMéxico in April 2005, wherein MinerasDyna was named the Exclusive Operating Entity at SJG. The Operating Agreement was previously amended in September 2006 (the “First Amendment”), and amended again at July 15, 2011 (the “Second Amendment”). The Term of the Second Amendment is 20 years, and the EAA provides for the continuation of the 20 Year Term from the date of the Second Amendment (July 15, 2011).

On June 17, 2013, DynaMéxico received from the Secretaria de Medio Ambiente Y Recursos Naturales, the Federal Environmental Authority in México ("SEMARNAT"), the approval and permission which allows for the rehabilitation and operation of the pilot mill facility at SJG ("the Semarnat-SJG Mill Permit," and, the "Semarnat Exploitation Permit"). Under the terms of the Semarnat-SJG Mill Permit, DynaMéxico will be responsible to maintain the SJG pilot mill facility, and including the adjacent tailings pond area, in compliance with the regulations described in la Norma Oficial Mexicana ("NOM-141-SEMARNAT-2003).

On September 30, 2013, DynaMéxico received from the Secretaria de Medio Ambiente Y Recursos Naturales, the Federal Environmental Authority in México ("SEMARNAT"), the approval and permission which allows for the exploitation and mining activities at the San Pablo Area of SJG ("the Semarnat-SJG San Pablo Exploitation Permit" and the "Semarnat Exploitation Permit"). Under the terms of the Semarnat Exploitation Permit, DynaMéxico will be restricted to conducting exploitation activities within the San Pablo Area of SJG (as defined in the Map of the San Pablo area as submitted to Semarnat).

In January, 2014, MinerasDyna entered into a 20 Year Land Lease Agreement with the Santa Maria Ejido Community surrounding San Jose de Gracia. The Land Lease Agreement is dated January 6, 2014 and continues through 2033. The Land Lease agreement covers an area of 4,399 hectares surrounding the main mineral resource areas of SJG, and provides for annual lease payments by MinerasDyna of $ 1,359,443 Pesos (approx. $104,250 USD), commencing in 2014. Additionally, under the description of the 20 Year Land Lease, MinerasDyna expects to construct a Medical Facility at SJG in year 2014, and a Community Center in year 2015.

The Land Lease Agreement provides MinerasDyna with surface access to the core resource areas of SJG (4,399 hectares), and allows for all permitted mining and exploration activities from the owners of the surface rights (Santa Maria Ejido community).

Licenses and Concessions

The SJG District is comprised of 33 mining concessions covering 69,121 hectares (171,802 acres) and is located within the Sierra Madre gold-silver belt, where the majority of hydrothermal deposits in México are located. The Company’s concessions, all of which are formally held by DynaMéxico, are granted by the Mexican government, or acquired from previous owners. The Company’s concessions are comprised of a combination of exploration concessions and development concessions, are filed in the Public Registry of Mining, and are scheduled to expire from 2028 through 2058. The concessions can be renewed prior to the expiry dates. The table below contains a listing of the mineral concessions currently held by DynaMéxico.

Under amendments to the Mining Act of México that came into effect on December 2006, the classifications of Mining Exploration Concessions and Mining Exploitation Concessions were replaced by a single classification of Mining Concessions valid for a renewable term of 50 years, commencing from the initial issuance date. To be converted into Mining Concessions at the time these amendments came into force, former exploration and exploitation concessions had to be in good standing at the time of conversion. All of the SJG concessions were converted to 50-year Mining Concessions at the time the amendments to the Mining Act came into effect. To renew the 50-year term, Mining Concessions must be in good standing at the time application is filed. An application for renewal must be filed within 5 years prior to expiration of the term.

To maintain Mining Concessions in good standing, the registered owner must (a) pay bi-annual mining duties in advance, by January 31 and July 31 each year, (b) file assessment work reports by May 30 each year, for the preceding year (some exception rules apply), and (c) file by January 31 each year, statistical reports on exploration / exploitation work conducted for the preceding year.

Notice of Commencement of Production Activities and Annual Production Reports must be filed annually by January 31 each year for those concessions where mineral ore extraction is taking place. As a general provision, registered owners of Mining Concessions must follow environmental and labor laws and regulations in order to maintain their Mining Concessions in good standing.

As of the date of this Form 10-Q, all of the 33 mining concessions comprising the SJG Property are in good standing with respect to the payment of taxes and the filing of assessment work obligations imposed by the Mining Act of México and its Regulations.

The San José de Gracia Project can be accessed by road, via a sealed highway from either Culiacan, the capital city of the State of Sinaloa (located to the south of the San José de Gracia Project) or the city of Guamuchil (located to the southwest of SJG), to the small town of Sinaloa de Leyva, then by gravel mountainous road to the village of San José de Gracia.

The San José de Gracia Project can also be accessed by air. A gravel airstrip is located adjacent to the village of San José de Gracia which is located at the southwestern portion of the property at the SJG Project, and the airstrip is suitable for light aircraft.

Climate and Operating Season

The climate is semi-tropical with a rainy season dominating from late June / early July through September. Operations at the San José de Gracia Project are in part dependent on the weather and some activities may be suspended during the rainy season.

Infrastructure and Local Resources

Power

A power line to the San José de Gracia Project has been installed by the Comisión Federal de Electricidad, the only authorized power producer in México. The power line was installed in March 2012 from the municipality of Sinaloa de Leyva (La Estancia area), a distance of approximately 75 kilometers.

The power line is currently 220 volts maximum capacity, which supports domestic use only, including the office and camp facilities at SJG, such as water pump, air conditioning, refrigeration, lights, internet, and fans, as well as local residential use. Currently, the SJG Project produces its own diesel-generated power for industrial use.

Water

 The water source for the SJG camp is from a water well located close to the river which runs just west of the village of San José de Gracia. DynaMéxico has obtained the water concession rights for this water source, which provide for usage of 1,000,000 cubic meters per year. Currently, DynaMéxico estimates its consumption of water to be approximately 10,000 liters per week.

Accommodations

The mine site area camp maintains facilities which can accommodate about 50 persons. The village of San José de Gracia maintains few stores, and which offer only minimal goods.

Offices – Camp Facilities

DynaMéxico maintains an administrative and logistics office in Guamuchil, located 125 kilometers southwest of the SJG property. The SJG Project sources many of its supplies from Guamuchil, and from Los Mochis and Culiacan. A satellite dish installed at the SJG Property provides communications from the SJG Property to Guamuchil.

The SJG property is described in more detail in this Form 10-Q, under Item 2, Properties.

Historical Production

SJG reports 1,000,000 Oz. gold historical production from a series of underground workings. The major production reported was 471,000 Oz. Au at the La Purisima area of SJG, at an average grade of 66.7 g/t; and production of 215,000 Oz. Au from the La Prieta area, at an average grade of 27.6 g/t. Mineralization at SJG has been traced on surface and underground over a 15 square kilometer area.

1997-1998 Drilling – Exploration Programs

A drill program was conducted at SJG in 1997 - 1998 by a prior majority owner. Approximately 6,172 meters drilling was completed in 63 core drill holes. Significant intercepts, including bonanza grades, outlined the down dip potential of the Northeast section (150 Meter NE to SW extent of the Drilling) of the Los Hilos to Tres Amigos Trend of SJG. Surface and underground sampling in 1999 - 2000 confirmed high grades in historic workings and surface exposures throughout the project area. These high grades outline the presence of mineralization shoots developed within the veins. The mineralized shoots appear to be controlled by dilational jogs and/or vein intersections. A total of 544 samples were collected in 1999-2000, and assayed an average 6.51 grams/ton gold.

Pilot Production Activities (2003 – 2006)

DynaMéxico, conducting activities through its operating sister companies MinerasDyna and DynaOperaciones, mined high-grade veins at the San Pablo area of SJG from mid-2003 to June 2006. 18,250 Oz. gold was produced and sold from mill feed tonnage of 42,000 tons, at an average grade of approximately 15-20 g/t. Production costs were reported at approximately $ 175. / Oz. Au in this small scale, pilot production operation.

 Mined Tonnage 42,500 tons
Production (Oz Au) 18,250 Oz
Average Grade 15-20 g/t
Recovery Efficiency (Plant) 85%
Recovery in Concentrate (Sales) 90%
Production Cost (Average, 4 Years) $175 / Oz

 The small scale mining and production activities at SJG consisted of improvements to an existing mill, including the installation of a gravity / flotation processing circuit, and initial test runs with tailings were completed in 2002. Actual mining at the higher grade San Pablo area of the property commenced in March 2003.

25
 

Suspension of Production Activities

The Company initiated the test production activity in 2003 at the time gold prices were depressed, and when exploration funding opportunities, while available, were deemed to be too dilutive by Company management. While the test production was considered successful (see results in the table above), a small scale production activity was not expected to provide the necessary capital in order to explore a project the size of SJG.

The earlier, limited-scope pilot production activity provided significant benefits in terms of confirming production grades, metallurgy and process, efficiency of recoveries, and production costs – all of which is valuable for larger scale production plans.

Earn In / Option Agreement – Financing of Drilling – Exploration Programs

As gold prices continued to appreciate into 2006, exploration financing opportunities increased and the Company negotiated and entered into an Earn In / Option Agreement with Goldgroup Mining Inc. (“Goldgroup”), dated September 1, 2006. The terms of the Earn In / Option Agreement provided for Goldgroup to furnish $18,000,000 USD financing to DynaMéxico for exploration expenditures at SJG, in exchange for a 50% share interest in DynaMéxico.

On June 21, 2013, DynaResource acquired a Certificate for 300 Series “B” Variable Capital Shares of DynaMéxico, in exchange for the settlement of accounts receivable from DynaMéxico in the amount of $31,090,710 Mexican Pesos (approximately $2.4 M USD). After the issuance and receipt of the 300 Series B Shares, DynaUSA holds 80% of the total outstanding Capital of DynaMéxico. DynaMéxico owns 100% of the San Jose de Gracia Project in northern Sinaloa, México.

No Known Reserves

Currently, the Company’s drilling programs (through DynaMéxico) are exploratory in nature. The Company expects to commence pilot production activities in 2014.

The SJG Property is without known reserves

Under U.S. standards, set forth in SEC Industry Guide 7, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless a determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made.

Future Drilling – Exploration Programs

Further drilling programs at SJG are contemplated, in view of the 2012 DynaMéxico-CAM SJG Mineral Resource Estimate and the formal National Instrument 43-101(“NI 43-101”) Technical Report for San Jose de Gracia (the “2012 DynaMéxico Luna-CAM SJG Technical Report”), and the updated NI 43-101 Technical Report, dated December 31, 2012 (See “Updated National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report for San Jose de Gracia”, below.)

The Company expects DynaMéxico will be successful in expanding the size and scope of the resources at SJG through continued drilling and development programs at San Pablo, Tres Amigos, La Cecena, Palos Chinos, La Union, La Purisima, and La Prieta. The Company expects extensions to mineralization in all directions and down dip from the main target areas.

National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) Mineral Resource Estimate

(“CAM”), Mr. Robert Sandefur, BS, MSc, P.E., senior reserve analysis and a Qualified Person as defined under NI 43-101, for the purpose of updating the Mineral Resource Estimate at San Jose de Gracia and to include lower grade mineralized areas of San Jose de Gracia using a .3 g/t Au cut off grade. This work is pending until the company deems it necessary to continue.

Commissioning of Metallurgical Testing

During the fourth quarter 2012, DynaMéxico, through MinerasDyna, engaged Kappes, Cassiday & Associates, Reno, NV. (“KCA”), for the purpose of designing a metallurgical test program to confirm possible heap leach recoveries of specific mineralized areas of San Jose de Gracia. This work is pending until the company deems it necessary to continue.

Company Transition from Exploration to Mining – Production

The Company expects to transition its business from that of a purely exploration company, to an exploration and production company in 2014. The basis for the exploration and production activity is provided through the foundational resource for SJG as reported in the 2012 DynaMéxico-CAM SJG Mineral Resource Estimate (and Technical Report), and supported further by the company’s successful pilot production activities during the 2003-2006 period.

SEMARNAT Permission for Operating Mill Facility at San Jose de Gracia

On June 17, 2013, DynaMéxico received from the Secretaria de Medio Ambiente Y Recursos Naturales, the Federal Environmental Authority in México ("SEMARNAT"), the approval and permission which allows for the rehabilitation and operation of the pilot mill facility at SJG ("the Semarnat-SJG Mill Permit," and, the "Semarnat Permit"). Under the terms of the Semarnat-SJG Mill Permit, DynaMéxico will be responsible to maintain the SJG pilot mill facility, and including the adjacent tailings pond area, in compliance with the regulations described in la Norma Oficial Mexicana ("NOM-141-SEMARNAT-2003).

Rehabilitation of Pilot Mill Facility at San Jose de Gracia

Under the terms of the Exploitation Amendment Agreement (“EAA”), as described above, MinerasDyna is in process of the rehabilitating and planning the subsequent operation of the pilot mill facility at SJG. The SJG pilot mill facility (a gravimetric-flotation circuit) is projected to process bulk samples to be mined from selected target areas of SJG. Operations at SJG will be managed by MinerasDyna, and are projected to be similar to those conducted by DynaMéxico during the 2003-2006 Period.

SEMARNAT Permission for Exploitation and Mining of the San Pablo Mine Area at San Jose de Gracia

On September 30, 2013, DynaMéxico received from the Secretaria de Medio Ambiente Y Recursos Naturales, the Federal Environmental Authority in México ("SEMARNAT"), the approval and permission which allows for the exploitation and mining activities at the San Pablo Area of SJG ("the Semarnat-SJG San Pablo Exploitation Permit" and, the "Semarnat Exploitation Permit").

Regional Geology & Mineral Deposits

San José de Gracia lies within the Sierra Madre Occidental Gold-Silver Belt, in a second-order Graben directly east of the regional-scale Grete Graben.  The basement to the Sierra Madre Occidental consists of deformed Paleozoic sedimentary strata, which are non-conformably overlain by Tertiary mafic to felsic volcanic and volcaniclastic strata known as the Lower Volcanic Series (“LVS”).  Strata of the LVS are recognized as being spatially related to gold and silver mineralization in the region. Volcanic and sedimentary strata are capped by a thick sequence of non-deformed Late Tertiary ignimbrites, known as the Upper Volcanic Series (“UVS”). 

Property Geology

The oldest rocks exposed at San José de Gracia are deformed Paleozoic shale, sandstone, conglomerate and minor limestone, which are non-conformably overlain by andesite and rhyodacite flows and tuffs of the LVS.  Volcanic and sedimentary strata are cut by quartz-feldspar porphyry, porphyritic diorite bodies and fine-grained m mafic dykes, which may be co-temporal with the LVS.  Ignimbrites of the UVS are exposed at higher elevations on the property and are thought to act as a post mineralization cap rock, thereby indicating an Early to Mid Tertiary (Paleocene to Eocene) age for gold mineralization at San José de Gracia.

27
 

Geologic Structure

Detailed mapping within the project area has defined several stages of deformation, beginning with compression during the Laramide Orogeny which affected the Paleozoic basement and formed flat-lying reverse faults, which have been reactivated as conduits for gold-bearing fluids in the La Prieta trend (Table 2).  Extension in Tertiary time led to the development of second order structures, trending south, southwest and southeast; which formed the major structural orientations for mineralization at San José de Gracia.  The latest phase of deformation is characterized by late-stage extension and southwest tilting.

Mineralization & Alteration

High grade gold mineralization at San José de Gracia is hosted within andesite and rhyodacite of the LVS and underlying Paleozoic sediments as fault breccia veins and crackle breccias that exhibit multiple stages of reactivation and fluid flow, as evidenced by crustiform/colloform textures and cross cutting veins.  Locally, veins exhibit sharp, clay gouge hangingwall and footwall contacts with slickensides, indicating reactivation of structurally-hosted veins subsequent to mineralization.  Gold grades can also be carried within the mineralized halo adjacent to the principal veins as quartz-chlorite stockwork.  In addition to vein-hosted mineralization, broad zones of un-mineralized clay alteration, developed southwest of the main mineralized trends, may overlie lower-grade, disseminated gold mineralization at depth.

Alteration at San José de Gracia is laterally and vertically zoned from discrete zones of silicification to broad zones of illite to clay alteration with increasing elevation and/or distance from the main feeder structures.  Faulting and tilting of the mineralization system has affected the surface distribution of alteration and in general has exposed deeper portions of the system in the northeast and exposed shallower, more distal portions of the hydrothermal system in the southwest part of the property.

Six principal mineralized trends have been identified at San José de Gracia, from south to north, consisting of:

  1. La Purisima Ridge trend;

 

  2. Palos Chinos trend;

 

  3. La Parilla to Veta Tierra trend (Including La Union);

 

  4. San Pablo trend;

 

  5. La Prieta trend, and

 

  6. Los Hilos to Tres Amigos trend.

Lab

A field laboratory is maintained within the camp facility. DynaMéxico utilized the lab for internal assaying services during its production activities of 2003-2006. Assays were performed by DynaMéxico personnel for mined mineralization, feed mineralization, gravity and flotation concentrates, and tailings. The current status of the lab and equipment is care and maintenance. The Company anticipates that MinerasDyna will utilize the lab facility in the future for providing check assays to support ongoing exploration and bulk sampling works.

Mineral Resource Estimate - Construction of Wireframes

Mineral Resources were estimated by Mr. Sandefur within wireframes constructed by technical personnel of Minop SA de CV (“Minop”), a subsidiary of Goldgroup Mining Inc. (“Goldgroup”). Minop was contracted by Mineras de DynaResource SA de CV. (“MinerasDyna”).

Mineral Resource Estimate - Parameters Used to Estimate the Mineral Resource

The data base for the San Jose de Gracia Project consists of 372 drill holes of which 361 are diamond drill holes and the remaining 11 were reverse circulation holes, with a total drilling of 75,878 meters. The 2012 DynaMéxico-CAM SJG Mineral Resource Estimate concentrates on four main mineralized vein systems at SJG: Tres Amigos, San Pablo, La Union, and La Purisima. Of the 372 drill holes, 368 were drilled to test these four main vein systems and the remaining four holes tested the Argillic Zone. Technical personnel of Minop built three dimensional solids to constrain estimation to the interpreted veins in each swarm. The 172 holes most recently drilled (2009-2011), were allocated as follows: Tres Amigos (64 holes), San Pablo (49 holes), La Union (24 holes), La Purisima (32 holes) and the Argillic Zone (3 holes).

Servicios y Proyectos Mineros performed a database review and considers that a reasonable level of verification has been completed, and that no material issues have been left unidentified from the drilling programs undertaken.

A total of 5,540 pieces of core were measured for specific gravity using the weight in air vs. weight in water method. This represents an additional 3,897 measurements taken in the 2009-11 drill seasons with density measurements taken from all mineral zones. Dried samples were coated with paraffin wax before being measured. The results tabulated have been sorted by lithology and mineralized veins. The average specific gravity of 5,051 wall rock samples is 2.59 while the average specific gravity for 489 samples of vein material is 2.68. CAM and Servicios y Proyectos Mineros have reviewed the procedures and results, and opine that the results are suitable for use in mineral resource estimation.

Mineral Resource Estimate - Explanation of Resource Estimation

Resource estimation was done in MineSight and MicroModel computer systems with only those composites that were inside the wireframe used in the estimate. Estimation was done using kriging with the omni-directional variogram derived from all the data in each area for gold using the relative variogram derived from the log variogram. High grades were restricted by capping the assays at a breakpoint based on the cumulative frequency curves. Estimation was done using search radii of 100 x 100 x 50 m oriented subparallel to the general strike and dip of the vein system in each area. A sector search, corresponding to the faces of the search box with a maximum of two points per sector was used in estimation. A density of 2.68 based on within ‘vein density’ samples was used in the resource estimate. Within each of the four areas there are approximately 20 to 40 veins in the vein swarm. Resources were estimated by kriging using data from all veins in the swarm. In general, gold accounts for at least 80% of the value of contained metal at the project, so the variograms for gold were used in estimation of the four other metals. Mineral Resources at Tres Amigos and San Pablo were classified as “Indicated” as follows:

1)they were within a vein within the swarm which contained at least 7 drill holes;
2)they are within 25 m of the nearest sample point; and,
3)they were estimated by at least three drill holes.

All other Mineral Resources were classified as “Inferred”. Since there are no precise quantitative definitions of Measured, Indicated and Inferred, resource classification is subjective and depends on the experience and judgment of the Qualified Person (“QP”) calculating the resource estimate. CAM, Mr. Sandefur QP, allowed indicated material at Tres Amigos and San Pablo because of (1) the similarity of the variograms, and (2) the fact of recent production by DynaMéxico from San Pablo of some 42,000 tonnes plant feed at an average grade of approximately 15 g/t (“grams per tonne”).  Three of the individual veins at La Purisima satisfied criterion (1) above but Mr. Sandefur elected not to include this material in “Indicated” because of the shorter first range at La Purisima. This Mineral Resource Estimate for SJG does not include any ore loss or dilution outside wireframes, and as currently defined, is probably most appropriate for a highly selective, small equipment underground operation.

The veins at San Jose de Gracia have been historically mined for many years and historic mined volumes are not available. The one exception is the approximate 42,000 tonnes of ore processed by DynaMéxico during its pilot production activities in 2003-2006. The resource table is not adjusted for any historic mining. To validate that historic mining had not significantly reduced the resource, CAM reviewed the database for all assays greater than 1 gram per ton gold that were next to missing values at the bottom of drill holes. Only four assays satisfying this criterion were found, and on the basis of this review, CAM does not believe that significant mining has occurred within the volumes defined by the wireframes.

No Known Reserves

The SJG property is without known reserves. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The quantity and grade of the “Indicated” and “Inferred” mineral resources reported in the mineral resource estimate contained in this Form 10 K are estimates only. There has been insufficient exploration to define any mineral reserves on the property, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in discovery of mineral reserves.

Currently, the Company’s drilling programs are exploratory in nature. However, The Company expects to commence pilot production activities in 2014 using the foundational resource for SJG as reported in the 2012 DynaMéxico-CAM SJG Mineral Resource Estimate (and Technical Report), and supported further by the company’s recent pilot production activities during the 2003-2006 period.

Updated Mineral Resource Estimate

During the third quarter 2012, MinerasDyna commissioned Chlumsky, Armbrust & Meyer LLC, Lakewood, CO. (“CAM”), Mr. Robert Sandefur, BS, MSc, P.E., senior reserve analysis and a Qualified Person as defined under NI 43-101, for the purpose of updating the Mineral Resource Estimate at San Jose de Gracia and to include lower grade mineralized areas of San Jose de Gracia using a .3 g/t Au cut off grade. This work is pending until the company deems it appropriate to continue.

Metallurgical Testing

During the third quarter 2012, MinerasDyna engaged Kappes, Cassiday & Associates, Reno, NV. (“KCA”), for the purpose of designing a metallurgical test program to confirm possible heap leach recoveries of specific mineralized areas of San Jose de Gracia. This work is pending until the company deems it appropriate to continue.

Capital Requirements

The mining industry in general requires significant capital in order to take a property from the exploration, to development to production. These costs remain a significant barrier to entry for the average company but once in production, there is a ready market for the final products, In the case of SJG, the final product would be mainly gold, the price of which is determined by global markets, so there is not a dependence on a customer base.

Gold

Gold Uses.     Gold generally is used for fabrication or investment. Fabricated gold has a variety of end uses, including jewelry, electronics, dentistry, industrial and decorative uses, medals, medallions and official coins. Gold investors buy gold bullion, official coins and jewelry.

Gold Supply.    A combination of current mine production, recycling and draw-down of existing gold stocks held by governments, financial institutions, industrial organizations and private individuals make up the annual gold supply. Based on public information available for the years 2008 through 2013, on average, current mine production has accounted for approximately 64% of the annual gold supply.

We, and our subsidiaries, maintain insurance policies against property loss. Such insurance, however, contains exclusions and limitations on coverage, particularly with respect to environmental liability and political risk. There can be no assurance that claims would be paid under such insurance policies in connection with a particular event.

Environmental Matters

Our activities are largely outside the United States and subject to governmental regulations for the protection of the environment. We conduct our operations so as to protect public health and the environment and believe our operations are in compliance with applicable laws and regulations in all material respects. DynaMéxico is involved with reclamation matters with the oversight of Semarnat, the federal environmental agency of México.

Exploration and Mining Permit Requirements (México)

In respect of permit requirements for mineral exploration and mining in México, the most relevant applicable laws, regulations and official technical norms are the following: the Federal Mining Act, and its Regulations, the Federal Environmental Protection and Ecological Equilibrium Act, and its Regulations, the Federal Sustainable Forestry Development Act and its Regulations, the Federal Explosives and Firearms Act, the National Waters Act and the Mexican Official Norm 120.

To carry out mineral exploration activities, holders of mining concessions in México are required to file at the offices of the Federal Secretariat of the Environment and Natural Resources (“SEMARNAT”) a “Notice of Commencement of Exploration Activities” under the guidelines of the Mexican Official Norm 120 (“Norm 120”). SEMARNAT is the office of the Federal Government of México responsible for the review and issuance of a CSUP (referenced below), the review of a Technical Justification Study (referenced below) and the filing of Norm 120. Norm 120 is a notice to SEMARNAT only, and has no processing time.

If contemplated mineral exploration activities fall outside of the parameters defined under Norm 120, a “Change of Soil Use Permit” (“CSUP”) Application is required to be filed at the SEMARNAT under the guidelines of the Federal Sustainable Forestry Development Act and its Regulations. To meet the requirements for issuance of a CSUP, the applicant must also file a Technical Study (“Technical Justification Study”) to justify the change of soil use from forestry to mining, to demonstrate that biodiversity will not be compromised, and to demonstrate that there will be no soil erosion or water quality deterioration on completion of the mineral exploration activities.

As a pre-requisite for issuance of a CSUP, Article 118 of the Federal Sustainable Forestry Development Act provides for the posting of a bond to the Mexican Forestry Fund for remediation, restoration and reforestation of the areas impacted by the mineral exploration activities.

To carry out mining activities in México, holders of mining concessions are also required to file an “Environmental Impact Assessment Study” (“Environmental Impact Study”) under the guidelines of the Federal Environmental Protection and Ecological Equilibrium Act and its Regulations, in order to evaluate the environmental impact of the contemplated mining activities.

As a pre-requisite for approval of an Environmental Impact Study, the Federal Environmental Protection and Ecological Equilibrium Act and its Regulations require the posting of a bond to guarantee remediation and rehabilitation of the areas impacted by the mining activities.

If the use of explosives materials is required for execution of mineral exploration or mining activities, an Application for General Permit for Use, Consumption and Storage of Explosive (“Explosives Permit”) is required to be filed at the offices of the Secretariat of National Defense (“SEDENA”) under the guidelines of the Federal Explosives and Firearms Act.

Under the Federal Mining Act, holders of mining concessions in México have the right to the use of the water coming from the mining works. However, certification of water rights and/or issuance of water rights concessions are required from the National Water Commission (“CONAGUA”) under the guidelines of the National Waters Act.

San Jose de Gracia Mineral Property

DynaMéxico owns 100% of the mineral concessions at the San Jose de Gracia Property (“SJG”), located in Sinaloa State, México, which is the only property in which DynaMéxico retains an interest. The Company owns 80% of the outstanding shares of DynaMéxico. DynaMéxico holds title to 33 concessions covering approximately 69,121 hectares (170,802 acres).

The property is located in and around San Jose de Gracia, Sinaloa State, México which is approximately 100 km northeast of Guamuchil, near the west coast of México. A small airstrip is located near San Jose de Gracia, and can be accessed by a small airplane or alternatively, by dirt mountain road. Several roads on the property are accessible throughout the year, with the possible exception of July - September when the rainy season sometimes causes flooding and runoff to make the roads difficult to navigate.

Currently, the Company’s drilling programs (through DynaMéxico) are exploratory in nature.

The SJG Property is without Known Reserves

Under U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless a determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made.

SJG History

SJG reports 1,000,000 Oz. Gold historical production from a series of underground workings. The major areas report 471,000 Oz. produced at the La Purisima area of SJG, at an average grade of 66.7 g/t.; and 215,000 Oz. produced from the La Prieta area, at an average grade of 27.6 g/t. Mineralization at SJG has been traced on surface and underground over a 15 square kilometer area.

Drilling programs at SJG were conducted by a prior operator in 1997–1998, primarily at the Tres Amigos area, which outlined some of the down dip potential in this area. Approximately 6,172 meters drilling was completed in 63 drill holes.

DynaMéxico was formed in March 2000, for the purpose of acquiring the concessions comprising the SJG District, and to consolidate all ownership of SJG under DynaMéxico. DynaMéxico focused on acquisition and consolidation work through 2003, and reports a clear title and ownership to the district.

DynaMéxico mined high-grade veins at the San Pablo area of SJG from mid-2003 to June 2006, in a Pilot Production operation. 18,250 Oz Gold was produced and sold, from mill feed tonnage of 42,500 tons, at an average grade of 15-20 g/t. Average production costs during the production period were reported as $175/Oz.

Drilling programs conducted from 2007 through 2011

Drilling programs completed a total of 298 drill holes covering 68,741 meters of drilling from 2007 through March 2011. Results of the drilling activity, including the results of previous drilling in 1997-1998, appear in an “SJG Drill Intercepts Summary File through 11-298”, as Exhibit 99.1 to our Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2011 filed with the SEC on August 22, 2011, and available on EDGAR at:

The Company filed the Technical Report on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) on March 28, 2012.

Updated National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report for San Jose de Gracia

The Company received from DynaMéxico on December 31, 2012, an updated NI 43-101 compliant Technical Report for the San Jose de Gracia Project (the “Updated 2012 DynaMéxico Luna-CAM SJG Technical Report, and the “updated Technical Report”). The updated Technical Report was approved by DynaMéxico, and filed by the Company on SEDAR on December 31, 2012.

Regional Geology & Mineral Deposits

San José de Gracia lies within the Sierra Madre Occidental Gold-Silver Belt, in a second-order graben directly east of the regional-scale Grete Graben.  The basement to the Sierra Madre Occidental consists of deformed Paleozoic sedimentary strata, which are non-conformably overlain by Tertiary mafic to felsic volcanic and volcaniclastic strata known as the Lower Volcanic Series (“LVS”).  Strata of the LVS are recognized as being spatially related to gold and silver mineralization in the region.  Volcanic and sedimentary strata are capped by a thick sequence of non-deformed Late Tertiary ignimbrites, known as the Upper Volcanic Series (“UVS”).

Property Geology

The oldest rocks exposed at San José de Gracia are deformed Paleozoic shale, sandstone, conglomerate and minor limestone, which are non-conformably overlain by andesite and rhyodacite flows and tuffs of the LVS.  Volcanic and sedimentary strata are cut by quartz-feldspar porphyry, porphyritic diorite bodies and fine-grained mafic dykes, which may be co-temporal with the LVS.  Ignimbrites of the UVS are exposed at higher elevations on the property and are thought to act as a post mineralization cap rock, thereby indicating an Early to Mid-Tertiary (Paleocene to Eocene) age for gold mineralization at San José de Gracia.

Geologic Structure

Detailed mapping within the project area has defined several stages of deformation, beginning with compression during the Laramide Orogeny which affected the Paleozoic basement and formed flat-lying reverse faults, which have been reactivated as conduits for gold-bearing fluids in the La Prieta trend (Table 2).  Extension in Tertiary time led to the development of second order structures, trending south, southwest and southeast; which formed the major structural orientations for mineralization at San José de Gracia.  The latest phase of deformation is characterized by late-stage extension and southwest tilting.

Mineralization & Alteration

High grade gold mineralization at San José de Gracia is hosted within andesite and rhyodacite of the LVS and underlying Paleozoic sediments as fault breccia veins and crackle breccias that exhibit multiple stages of reactivation and fluid flow, as evidenced by crustiform/colloform textures and cross cutting veins.  Locally, veins exhibit sharp, clay gouge hangingwall and footwall contacts with slickensides, indicating reactivation of structurally-hosted veins subsequent to mineralization.  Gold grades can also be carried within the mineralized halo adjacent to the principal veins as quartz-chlorite stockwork.  In addition to vein-hosted mineralization, broad zones of un-mineralized clay alteration, developed southwest of the main mineralized trends, may overlie lower-grade, disseminated gold mineralization at depth.

34
 

Alteration at San José de Gracia is laterally and vertically zoned from discrete zones of silicification to broad zones of illite to clay alteration with increasing elevation and/or distance from the main feeder structures.  Faulting and tilting of the mineralization system has affected the surface distribution of alteration and in general has exposed deeper portions of the system in the northeast and exposed shallower, more distal portions of the hydrothermal system in the southwest part of the property.

Six principal mineralized trends have been identified at San José de Gracia, from south to north. These consist of the:

  1. La Purisima Ridge trend;

  2. Palos Chinos trend;

3.La Parilla to Veta Tierra trend (Including La Union);
4.San Pablo trend;
5.La Prieta trend, and
6.Los Hilos to Tres Amigos trend.

Lab

A field laboratory is maintained within the camp facility. The Company utilized the lab for Assaying services during its production activities. Assays were performed by Company personnel for mined mineralization, feed mineralization, gravity and flotation concentrates, and tailings. The current status of the lab and equipment is care and maintenance. The Company anticipates utilizing the lab facility in the future for providing quick check assays to support the exploration and bulk sampling works.

Legal Proceedings

US Litigation (Dallas, Texas) – Company as Plaintiff

On December 27, 2012, the Company, and DynaMéxico, filed an Original Petition and Application for Temporary Injunction and Permanent Injunction in the 14th Judicial District Court of Dallas, Texas (the “Petition”) against Defendants Goldgroup Mining Inc., Goldgroup Resources Inc., and certain individuals acting in concert with Goldgroup (collectively “Goldgroup”). The Petition alleged, among other things, that Goldgroup has wrongfully used property, confidential information and data belonging to DynaMéxico and consistently failed to disclose several matters of material importance to the public.

The Petition requested that Goldgroup be enjoined from: (a) using or disseminating any confidential information belonging to DynaMéxico, (b) asserting that Goldgroup owns any interest in the San Jose de Gracia Project, rather than owning a common shares equity interest in DynaMéxico, (c) improperly disclosing that Goldgroup is the operator of the San Jose de Gracia Project, rather than Mineras de DynaResource SA de C.V. (“Mineras”), and (d) failing to properly disclose that broad powers of attorney for acting on behalf of DynaMéxico are held by a DynaUSA senior executive.

The Petition further requested, among other things: (a) a temporary and permanent injunction; (b) declaratory relief; (c) disgorgement of funds alleged to have been improperly raised as a consequence of Goldgroup’s wrongful actions; (d) cancellation of shares of DynaMéxico stock held by Goldgroup; and, (d) actual and punitive damages.

At the time of the filing, the Company believed the Petition to be necessary in order to protect its shareholder interests in DynaMéxico and in order to protect the property, data, and assets of DynaMéxico.

Although Goldgroup challenged the jurisdiction to the filed litigation in Texas, Goldgroup has acknowledged that it owns no direct interest in the San Jose de Gracia Property, and it has acknowledged that Mineras de DynaResource SA de C.V. (“MinerasDyna”), DynaUSA’s 100% owned subsidiary, is the exclusive operator of the San Jose de Gracia Project.  Additionally, recent developments in México in 2013, including: (1) the signing of the Exploitation Amendment Agreement (“EAA”) between MinerasDyna and DynaMéxico; (2) the signing of a 20 year land lease agreement between MinerasDyna and the Santa Maria Ejido Community surrounding the San Jose de Gracia Project; and (3) the acquisition by DynaUSA of a majority interest in DynaMéxico; protect against Goldgroup’s wrongfully obtaining and/or disseminating confidential data and information of DynaMéxico.  These recent developments in México provided that the Dyna Parties non-suited the Texas action as announced on March 14, 2014, without prejudice to asserting or consolidating claims in México, as well as to contemplate additional claims or regulatory actions against Goldgroup in Canada.

Previously, the Dyna Parties have filed  claims against Goldgroup in México, including, without limitation, claims for theft of confidential data and property of DynaMéxico, claims for issuing misleading and inaccurate disclosures and, claims related to Goldgroup's asserting that it owns interests that it does not own.

Goldgroup files for Arbitration

On March 14, 2014 Goldgroup filed for arbitration, citing the Earn In Agreement dated September 1, 2006. The Company filed an answer on April 10, disputing that any issues exist which provide for arbitration.

35
 

 

Litigation(s) in México – Company is Plaintiff

The Company, and DynaMéxico have filed several legal actions in México against Goldgroup Mining Inc, Goldgroup Resources Inc., certain individuals employed or previously employed by Minop, S.A. de C.V. (a Company operating in México and associated with Goldgroup Mining Inc.), and certain individuals retained as agents of Goldgroup Mining Inc. The Company and DynaMéxico are plaintiffs in the actions filed in México and the outcomes are pending.

The Company believes that no material adverse change will occur as a result of the actions taken, and the Company further believes that there is little to no potential for the assessment of a material monetary judgment against the Company for legal actions it has filed in México. For purposes of confidentiality, the Company does not provide more specific disclosure in this Form 10-Q.

Litigations – Company and/or Officers and Directors as Defendants

Other than the Goldgroup claim for arbitration above described, The Company, nor its Officers and Directors have received any formal notice of any legal actions filed against them, nor is the Company or its Officers and Directors aware of any legal actions filed against them.

General

The Company currently holds 80% of the outstanding shares of DynaResource de México, S.A. de C.V. (“DynaMéxico”), which owns 100% of the mineral concessions and related interest to the San José de Gracia mining District (“SJG”). SJG is currently comprised of 33 mining concessions covering approximately 69,121 hectares located in and around San José de Gracia, in northern Sinaloa State, México (“SJG”). SJG is located on the west side of the Sierra Madre Mountains, approximately 250 kilometers inland from the port city of Los Mochis, Sinaloa; and approximately 500 kilometers north of Mazatlan, Sinaloa.

The SJG is a High-Grade Mineralized System which reports historical production of over 1 M. Oz. AU, from a series of underground workings. DynaMéxico is focused on the exploration and future exploitation of this vein-hosted, near surface, and over 400 hundred M. down – dip gold potential, that occurs within fault breccia veins; and has been traced on surface and underground over a 15 Sq. Km. area.

Prior Drilling and Exploration Activity / SJG (1997 / 1998)

A drill program was conducted at SJG in 1997 - 1998 by Golden Hemlock Explorations, Ltd., a prior partner at SJG. Approximately 6,172 meters drilling was completed in 63 core drill holes. Significant intercepts, including bonanza grades, outlined down dip potential of the Northeast section (150 Meter NE to SW extent of the Drilling) of the Los Hilos to La Cecena to Tres Amigos Trend.  And, Drill Hole 97-63 confirmed down dip and extension at the Palos Chinos Area of SJG.

Surface and underground sampling in 1999 - 2000 conducted by the Company confirmed high grades in historic workings and surface exposures throughout the SJG district and project area.  These high grades outlined the presence of mineralization shoots developed within the veins.  The mineralized shoots appear to be controlled by dilational jogs and/or vein intersections. A total of 544 samples were collected in 1999-2000, and assayed an average 6.51 grams/ton (g/t) gold.

Recent Pilot Production Activities (2003 – 2006)

During the period 2003 through 2006, DynaMéxico conducted underground mining and pilot production activities at SJG. The small scale production activities at SJG consisted of improvements to an existing mill, including the installation of a gravity / flotation processing circuit. Initial test runs with tailings from historical production were completed in 2002.  Actual mining at the high grade San Pablo area of the SJG property commenced in March 2003. DynaMéxico produced 18,250 Oz. gold from Mid 2003 to June 2006; from mill feed tonnage of 42,500 tons, at an average grade of approximately 15-20 g/t. Production costs were reported at approx. $175. /Oz.

Magnetic and IP Surveys

Magnetic and IP surveys were conducted throughout the SJG district in 2009, covering an area of approximately 15 Sq. Km.

IP is the primary geophysical target at SJG, and is expected to identify pyrite-based mineralization hosting gold. Initial Survey Grid lines were located approximately perpendicular to inferred geologic strike. The data response from these grid lines indicate one or more IP sources that dip northwest. Additional grid lines were crossed with the initial lines, and appear to identify two separate IP sources.

Grid lines to the South appear to indicate an IP source at > 250 Meters.

Correlation between ground magnetic and IP

In general the correlation between the Magnetic and IP response and data was excellent.

36
 

Correlation with recent Drilling Programs and known Mineralization

The data response of the surveys correlated to the recent drilling programs and to the areas of known mineralization at SJG was excellent. Considering this excellent correlation to known mineralization, additional areas of SJG showing similar data response could be indicative of additional target areas.

Identification of Additional Resource Target Areas

Significant survey responses were reported for the following areas; and are projected for follow up drilling:

San Pablo; Up Dip;

San Pablo; Displacement Zone;

Tres Amigos; Down Dip and Northwest;

Tres Amigos; Extension Northeast;

Orange Tree; Down Dip;

La Cecena, Los Hilos, and Tepehauje;

Palos Chinos;

La Prieta;

La Purisima; Down dip at Southeast end;

Argyllic Zone; + 250 M. Down;

Activity for the Year Ended December 31, 2013 and 2012

In 2013, MinerasDyna, the Company's 100% owned subsidiary, in accordance with the terms of the Exploitation Amendment Agreement, refurbished the pilot production facility at SJG, and rehabilitated the San Pablo mine, in order to process bulk mined ore samples from San Pablo through the pilot mill facility. DynaMéxico received permits as discussed above for the rehabilitation and operation of the mill facility and the exploitation and mining of the San Pablo area of SJG. The basis for the mining activity and the operation of the pilot mill facility are the NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate, the Technical Report, the block models prepared as a result of the recent drilling activity, and the recent production history of 2003-2006.

National Instrument 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate (NI 43-101) for San Jose de Gracia

The Company received from DynaMéxico on February 14, 2012 a National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) Mineral Resource Estimate for the SJG property, with an Effective Date of February 6, 2012.

The NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate was prepared by Mr. Robert Sandefur, BS, MSc, P.E., a Qualified Person as defined under NI 43-101, and a senior reserve analyst for Chlumsky, Armbrust & Meyer LLC, Lakewood, CO (“CAM”). The Mineral Resource Estimate concentrates on four separate vein systems at SJG: Tres Amigos, San Pablo, La Union, and La Purisima.

Updated National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report for San Jose de Gracia

The Company received an updated NI 43-101 compliant technical report from DynaMéxico on December 31, 2012, for the San Jose de Gracia Project (the “Updated 2012 DynaMéxico Luna-CAM SJG Technical Report, and the “updated Technical Report”).

The terms of the Note Receivable provide for a “Convertible Loan”, repayable at 5% interest over a 3 year period, and convertible at the Company’s option into Common Stock of DynaNevada at $0.25 / Share.  DynaNevada is a related entity, and through its subsidiary in México (DynaNevada de México), (“DynaNevada de México”), has entered into an Option agreement with Grupo México (“IMMSA”) in México, for the exploration and development of approximately 3,000 hectares in the State of San Luis Potosi (“the Santa Gertrudis Property”). In March, 2010, DynaNevada de México completed the Option with IMMSA so that it now owns 100% of Santa Gertrudis. In June, 2010, DynaNevada de México acquired an additional 6,000 Hectares in the State of Sinaloa (“the San Juan Property”). The Company has loaned additional funds to DynaNevada since 2010 for maintenance of concessions and other nominal required fees and expenses.

Competition

DynaMéxico retains 100% of the rights to concessions over the area of the San José de Gracia property and it currently sees no competition for mining on the lands covered by those concessions. If DynaMéxico were to re-start production activities, the sale of gold and any bi-products would be subject to global market prices, which prices fluctuate daily. DynaMéxico was successful in selling gold concentrates produced from SJG in prior years, and the Company expects a competitive market for produced concentrates and/or other mineral products in the future. Actual prices received by DynaMéxico would depend upon these global market prices, less deductions.

DynaMéxico conducted mining and milling operations at SJG from March 2003 through June, 2006. This activity was suspended in order to focus on the exploration of the vast SJG District. The Company’s operating subsidiaries, MinerasDyna and DynaOperaciones, receive monthly fees for management of the SJG activities and personnel. These fee amounts are eliminated in consolidation. Other than those intercompany fees, the Company reported no revenue in 2013 and 2012. The Company expects revenues from mining and production in 2014.

RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2014 AND 2013

REVENUE. Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $0 and $0. DynaMéxico ceased its production activities in 2006 in order to focus its efforts on exploration and drilling activity, for the purpose of defining resources. The Company expects revenues from conducting production activities in 2014.

PREPILOT-PRODUCTION EXPENSES. Pre Pilot-Production Expenses were $820,346 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The increase in expenses was due to the Company starting up operations in 2014. These expenses include refurbishment, facilitation of and cleaning of the mill and mine operations. The Company was still in development stage in the prior year.

EXPLORATION EXPENSES. Exploration expenses were $0 and $208,893 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The decrease in costs was due to the Company starting up operations in 2014 and incurring Pre Pilot-Production Costs—see above.

OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $346,334 and $533,178, respectively. The decrease in expenses is due primarily to amounts previously expensed that were recovered when the Company received additional shares in DynaMexico in exchange for settlement of accounts receivable from DynaMexico. The above expenses include depreciation and amortization amounts of $17,865 and $22,061 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE). Other income, exclusive of currency translation gain or (loss) was $42,231 and $134 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The increase is primarily due to interest expense in the current period of $42,338, with none in the prior period. Currency translation gain or (loss) was $94,042 and $348,634 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST. The non-controlling interest portion of our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $139,209 and $198,420, respectively. This is due to an increase in the net loss for the current period offset by the change in minority interest % from the prior quarter.

COMPREHENSIVE (LOSS). Comprehensive loss includes the Company’s net loss plus the unrealized currency translation gain (loss) for the period which was a gain of $8,214 in the current year and a loss of $2,765 in the prior year quarter.

Plan of Operation

The Plan of operation for the next twelve months includes MinerasDyna commencing pilot production activities at SJG, while continuing drilling and exploration activities. The amount allocated to each of these activities will depend on the results of the pilot production activities. The Company is required to fund its general and administrative expenses in the US. The Company’s operating subsidiaries, MinerasDyna and DynaOperaciones, receive monthly fees for management of SJG activities and personnel. These amounts are eliminated in consolidation. The Company believes that cash on hand is adequate to fund its ongoing general and administrative expenses through 2014. The Company plans to seek additional capital funding during the next 12 months depending on results of pilot production activities, market conditions, results of drilling and exploration activities, and other circumstances.

Capital Expenditures

The Company’s primary activities relate to the exploration of SJG property through its 80% owned subsidiary DynaMéxico. Drilling and other services at SJG are contracted through MinerasDyna, the operating entity under agreement with DynaMéxico. The Company does not foresee significant capital purchases in 2014 which would require funding from current cash reserves.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2014, the Company maintained working capital of $614,222, comprised of current assets of $1,310,234 and current liabilities of $696,012. This represents a decrease of $343,940 from the working capital maintained by the Company of $958,162 as of December 31, 2013, due primarily to the continued funding of operations in the first quarter and expenses related to the refurbishment of the pilot mill facility and the rehabilitation of the San Pablo mine at San Jose de Gracia.

Net cash used in operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased to $(1,120,158) from $(553,044) in the three months ended March 31, 2013. Again, this was due to the increased activity relating to the refurbishing of the pilot mill facility and the rehabilitation of the San Pablo mine, and the preparation for processing bulked mine samples through the pilot mill facility. The pilot mill facility is now operational and we expect to produce revenue from the running bulk samples processed through the mill facility in 2014, in order to fund continuing operations.

43
 

Cash used in investing activities was primarily for purchase of fixed assets of $23,744 in the first quarter.

Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $529,291 compared to $176,208 for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The significant increase is due to the Company raising funds in order to refurbish the pilot mill facility and for rehabilitating the San Pablo mine, and to prepare to process bulk mined samples through the mill facility. The main component was the issuance by the Company of Series B preferred stock for cash of $522,500.

Advances to Subsidiaries

DynaResource de México (“DynaMéxico”)

In May 2013, the Company acquired additional equity interest in DynaMéxico in exchange for the retirement of accounts receivable of $2,393,803, which amount was due from DynaMéxico at December 31, 2012. As a result, as of May 17, 2013, the Company owned 80% of the outstanding equity of DynaMéxico. All intercompany balances eliminate in consolidation.

As of December 31, 2013, the Company has no receivable from DynaMéxico, however, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary MinerasDyna had an accounts receivable due from DynaMéxico in the amount of $2,800,000.

As of December 31, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with DynaMéxico in which DynaMéxico agreed to pay a fee of $541,915 in order to continue to carry an amount payable to the Company. The fee was calculated as if interest had been charged at 4% interest compounded monthly over the period in which the amounts accrued.

Mineras de DynaResource (“MinerasDyna”)

As of March 31, 2014, the Company had advanced $3,348,000 to MinerasDyna and MinerasDyna had advanced $2,800,000 to DynaMéxico. The total amount of $2,800,000 is a receivable owed to MinerasDyna from DynaMéxico as of March 31, 2014.

As of December 31, 2012 the Company agreed with DynaMéxico to accrue interest on the total amount receivable until repaid or otherwise retired. The interest rate to be accrued is agreed to be simple annual interest at the rate quoted by the Bank of México.

The receivables from MinerasDyna and DynaMéxico have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Advances from Goldgroup Mining Inc. (“Goldgroup”)

In January 2013, Goldgroup advanced $120,000 USD to DynaMéxico. This $120,000 contribution from Goldgroup was the first contribution from Goldgroup to DynaMéxico since March 2011. And, in January 2014, Goldgroup advanced $111,500 USD to DynaMéxico.

Future Advances to MinerasDyna and DynaMéxico from the Company

The Company expects to make additional advances to MinerasDyna and DynaMéxico. Future advances from MinerasDyna to DynaMéxico will be made under the terms of the Exploitation amendment agreement. Other advances are agreed to be accrued in the same manner as previous receivables, until or unless otherwise agreed between DynaMéxico and the Company.

Sampling Process

The geological data contained in this report was verified by an appropriate quality control person using industry standard quality controls and quality assurance protocols utilized in exploration activities. Standard reference samples and various duplicates are inserted in each batch of assays. Drill core samples are cut by saw on site and samples splits are prepared for shipment, sealed and then shipped for assaying. Samples are sent to a certified assayer (Inspectorate Exploration & Mining Services Ltd., Vancouver, BC.) and analyzed for gold by fire assay and for silver and 34 other trace and major elements in accordance with standard industry practices.

Drilling Programs

In the period September 2006 through December 31, 2011, funding from Goldgroup provided for DynaMéxico’s completing approximately 68,741 meters drilling at San Jose de Gracia, resulting in a defined NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate as described in the 2012 DynaMéxico-CAM SJG Mineral Resource Estimate. The Company expects MinerasDyna to plan continued and subsequent drilling programs at San Pablo, Tres Amigos, La Cecena, Palos Chinos, La Union, La Purisima, and La Prieta / Rosario / Rudolpho. The Company expects further drilling programs to confirm extensions to mineralization in all directions and down dip from the main target areas.

Mineralization at San José de Gracia

The Company was informed by DynaMéxico that it had outlined significant mineralization from drilling activity at San Pablo, Tres Amigos, La Union, and La Purisima areas of SJG as described in the recent NI 43-101 2012 DynaMéxico-CAM SJG Mineral Resource Estimate. Further drilling is expected to outline additional mineralization at these 4 major target areas at SJG, while additional mineralization are also expected to be defined at La Prieta and the area Northeast of Tres Amigos. Other areas at SJG indicate clear potential to develop additional mineralization.

44
 

No Known Reserves

Currently, the Company’s drilling programs (through DynaMéxico) are exploratory in nature.

The SJG property is without known reserves. Under U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless a determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made.

Litigation

On December 27, 2012, the Company, and DynaMéxico, filed an Original Petition and Application for Temporary Injunction and Permanent Injunction in the 14th Judicial District Court of Dallas, Texas (the “Petition”) against Defendants Goldgroup Mining Inc., Goldgroup Resources Inc., and certain individuals acting in concert with Goldgroup (collectively “Goldgroup”). The Petition alleged, among other things, that Goldgroup has wrongfully used property, confidential information and data belonging to DynaMéxico and consistently failed to disclose several matters of material importance to the public.

The Petition requested that Goldgroup be enjoined from: (a) using or disseminating any confidential information belonging to DynaMéxico, (b) asserting that Goldgroup owns any interest in the San Jose de Gracia Project, rather than owning a common shares equity interest in DynaMéxico, (c) improperly disclosing that Goldgroup is the operator of the San Jose de Gracia Project, rather than Mineras de DynaResource SA de C.V. (“MinerasDyna”), and (d) failing to properly disclose that broad powers of attorney for acting on behalf of DynaMéxico are held by a DynaUSA senior executive.

The Petition further requested, among other things: (a) a temporary and permanent injunction; (b) declaratory relief; (c) disgorgement of funds alleged to have been improperly raised as a consequence of Goldgroup’s wrongful actions; (d) cancellation of shares of DynaMéxico stock held by Goldgroup; and, (d) actual and punitive damages.

At the time of the filing, the Company believed the Petition to be necessary in order to protect its shareholder interests in DynaMéxico and in order to protect the property, data, and assets of DynaMéxico.

Although Goldgroup challenged the jurisdiction to the filed litigation in Texas, Goldgroup has acknowledged that it owns no direct interest in the San Jose de Gracia Property, and it has acknowledged that Mineras de DynaResource SA de C.V. (“Mineras”), DynaUSA’s 100% owned subsidiary, is the exclusive operator of the San Jose de Gracia Project.  Additionally, recent developments in México in 2013, including: (1) the signing of the Exploitation Amendment Agreement (“EAA”) between Mineras and DynaMéxico; (2) the signing of a 20 year land lease agreement between Mineras and the Santa Maria Ejido Community surrounding the San Jose de Gracia Project; and (3) the acquisition by DynaUSA of a majority interest in DynaMéxico; protect against Goldgroup’s wrongfully obtaining and/or disseminating confidential data and information of DynaMéxico.  These recent developments in México provided that the Dyna Parties non-suited the Texas action as announced by the Company on March 14, 2014, without prejudice to asserting or consolidating claims in México, as well as to contemplate additional claims or regulatory actions against Goldgroup in Canada.

Goldgroup files for Arbitration

On March 14, 2014 Goldgroup filed for arbitration, citing the Earn In Agreement dated September 1, 2006. The Company filed an answer on April 10, 2104 disputing that any issues exist which provide for arbitration.

Litigation in México – Company is Plaintiff

The Company, and DynaMéxico have filed several legal actions in México against Goldgroup Mining Inc., Goldgroup Resources Inc., certain individuals employed or previously employed by Minop, S.A. de C.V. (a Company operating in México and associated with Goldgroup Mining Inc.), and certain individuals retained as agents of Goldgroup Mining Inc. The Company and DynaMéxico are plaintiffs in the actions filed in México and the outcomes are pending.

The Company believes that no material adverse change will occur as a result of the actions taken, and the Company further believes that there is little to no potential for the assessment of a material monetary judgment against the Company for legal actions it has filed in México. For purposes of confidentiality, the Company does not provide more specific disclosure in this Form 10-Q.

Litigation – Company and/or Officers and Directors as Defendants

Other than the Arbitration claim of Goldgroup described above, The Company, nor its Officers and Directors have received any formal notice of any legal actions filed against them, nor is the Company or its Officers and Directors aware of any legal actions filed against them.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of March 31, 2014. This evaluation was accomplished under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer / principal executive officer, and chief financial officer / principal financial officer who concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that all material information required to be filed in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q has been made known to them.

For purposes of this section, the term disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seg.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure, controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act") is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based upon an evaluation conducted for the period ended March 31, 2014, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as of March 31, 2014, and as of the date of this Report, have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, we have identified no material weakness in our internal controls.

Corporate expenditures are processed and paid by officers of the Company. However, the current number of transactions incurred by the Company does not justify additional accounting staff to be retained.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework at March 31, 2014. Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that, as of March 31, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to the attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this quarterly report.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

The Company has not made any changes in its internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
