Legend has a 100% owned subsidiary company Legend Consolidated Group Inc, a Delaware corporation. This company is inactive.

Effective November 17, 2006, Legend issued one (1) new bonus share of Common Stock for every two (2) shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record at that date. The issue of the new bonus shares of Common Stock were on a pro-rate basis to all shareholders. As a result, the Company issued 27,599,722 shares of its Common Stock. Effective December 31, 2006, Legend issued one (1) new bonus share of Common Stock for every two (2) shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record at that date. The issue of the new bonus shares of Common Stock were on a pro-rata basis to all shareholders. As a result, the Company issued 41,934,337 shares of its Common Stock.

The Company has accounted for these bonus issues as a stock split and accordingly, all share and per share data has been retroactively restated.

Currency

We use the Australian dollar as our reporting currency, since we are headquartered in Australia and our administrative expenses are incurred in Australian dollars. References to dollars are to Australian dollars (A$) unless otherwise indicated as being United States dollars (US$). For the convenience of the reader, the Australian Dollar figures for the year ended December 31, 2007 have been translated into United States Dollars (“US$”) using the rate of exchange at December 31, 2007 of A$1.00=US$0.8767.  Prior to July 31, 2006, the Company’s functional currency was the US dollar. However, as a result of the purchase of diamond mining tenements in Northern Australia in July 2006, the Company’s 2006 revenue and expenses will be primarily denominated in Australian dollars (A$). Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (‘‘SFAS’’) No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation, states that the functional currency of an entity is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Accordingly the Company determined that from August 1, 2006 the functional currency of the Company is the Australian dollar. Assets, liabilities and equity were translated at the rate of exchange at July 31, 2006.  Revenue and expenses were translated at actual rates. Translation gains and losses were included as part of accumulated other comprehensive gain.

Restatement of comparative numbers was made for the change in functional and reporting currency. The change was adopted prospectively beginning July 31, 2006 in accordance with SFAS No. 52.

History

Legend was incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 5, 2001 under the name Sundew International, Inc., to engage in the business of selling compatible inkjet cartridges and refill kits on the Internet.

On March 13, 2003, Legend filed for an Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation (the "Amendment") pursuant to which the name of Sundew International, Inc. was changed to "Legend International Holdings, Inc."

In November 2004, Renika Pty Ltd, an Australian corporation (“Renika”) acquired an 88% interest in Legend from William and Michael Tay (the “Tays”), the Tays resigned as Directors and Officers of Legend, Joseph Gutnick was appointed President, Chief Executive Officer and a Director and Peter Lee was appointed Secretary.  The Tays also granted Renika an option to acquire an additional 578,240 shares of Common Stock that Renika exercised in 2005. Commencing in fiscal 2005, Legend has decided to focus its business on mineral exploration activities.

Effective as of March 3, 2006, the Company entered into a Contract for the Sale of Mining Tenements (“Contract”) with Astro Diamond Mines N.L. (“Astro”) an Australian company pursuant to which the Company shall acquire certain diamond mining tenements in Northern Australia from Astro, which is described above.

In November 2007, Legend acquired a number of phosphate exploration interests in the State of Queensland in Australia

Legend is an exploration stage company.  Legend has not been involved in any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding.  Legend has not been involved in any material reclassification, merger consolidation, or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of business.

Proposed Spin-off of Uranium-Phosphate Interests

On May 14, 2007, the Company announced that it intended to spin off its uranium-phosphate exploration interests to a new public company to be traded on the over the counter market in the United States.  As a result of subsequent increases in the market price of phosphate and positive developments with the Company’s phosphate exploration interests, the Company has determined not to proceed with the spin-off at this time.

Description of Business

Business

The Company has never generated any significant revenues from operations and is still considered an exploration stage company.  The Company was initially formed to engage in the business of selling compatible inkjet cartridges and refill kits on the Internet for the consumer printer market.  In March 2003, management of the Company decided to engage in the business of building and acquiring controlling or other interests in one or more companies engaged in the contract sales and distribution of specialty medical products, and raise additional capital for this purpose.  Neither business was successful and operations of both were eventually discontinued.  During fiscal 2004, management of the Company developed a plan of operations to acquire income-producing real property.  The Company did not acquire any properties pursuant to such plan.

Following the change of management in November 2004, the Company developed a new plan of operations, which was to engage in mineral exploration and development activities.  Legend's business plan calls for the identification of mineral properties where it can obtain secure title to exploration, development and mining interests.

Landholdings

Some of Legend’s landholdings (tenements) are held under licence from the Queensland Government in Australia. Tenements are granted as either exploration permits, mineral development licences or mining leases.

Exploration permits can only be applied for over available ground.  Applications consist of a prescribed application form, proposed exploration programme with estimated expenditure and the prescribed application fee.  An exploration permit number is assigned when the application is received.  The Department then assesses the application to determine whether a company is a suitable candidate and proposes to spend sufficient funds on exploration on the licence.  If the Department considers a company to be a suitable candidate, the Department then assesses the environmental impact of the proposed exploration programme and also commences the native title process.  The native title process involves advertising the application for the purpose of determining whether there are any objections to the licence being granted. If there are no objections, the permit is granted.

The exploration permit is granted for five years provided the company continues to comply with the licences conditions.  There is a statutory requirement to reduce the area of the exploration licence by fifty percent before the end of years three, four and five.

Rent is required to be paid each year in advance.

4

 
An annual expenditure report is due each year, as a statement of the amount that has been spent on the ground.  An annual technical report is also due each year, as a statement of the exploration work that has been undertaken on the ground and what work is proposed to be undertaken for the coming year.

The exploration permit is due to expire at the end of year five but a renewal application can be lodged prior to the expiry to, if granted, extend the permit for up to another five years.  A summary of work completed on the ground together with a detailed explanation of the work proposed for the ground is required to accompany the renewal application.

If the company proposes to mine a measured resource it will need to apply for a Mining Lease.  As the Exploration Permit holder it has automatic priority to the ground to be the subject of the mining Lease.  Applications consist of a prescribed application form, details of the proposed development, the financial resources to fund the proposal and the prescribed application fee.  A mining lease number is assigned when the application is received.  The Department then assesses the application to determine the suitability of the proposal.  The application will then pass through the environmental and native title process.  An agreement will need to be negotiated with the native title holders/claimants as part of the native title process.

A mineral lease may be granted for such term as the Minister thinks fit.  The company is required to state the term of the lease required at the time of application.  The term required is stated on the application form.

Rent is required to be paid each year in advance.

An annual expenditure report is due each year, as a statement of what has been spent on the ground.  An annual technical report is also due each year, as a statement of what work has been done on the ground and what work is proposed for the coming year.

Geological History of the Georgina Basin of Queensland.

The Georgina Basin hosts a number of phosphorate deposits near Mt Isa. In particular, the Beetle Creek Formation and Thorntonia Limestone contain three key phosphatic lithologies: pelletal, microsphorite and replacement-types. The Lady Annie, Lady Jane, D-Tree & Thorntonia phosphate deposits lie within the Beetle Creek Formation and its lateral facies equivalents. (Howard, 1986)

The Inca Formation is the youngest unit, composed of  laminated siltstones and shales and conformably overlies Thorntonia Limestone. The Thorntonia Limestone is a dolomitic limestone with increasing chert bands toward top. It is the lateral facies equivalent to the Beetle Creek Formation, with which it intertongues. The Beetle Creek Formation hosts the phosphate deposits, composed predominately of interbedded coarse to fine grained phosphorites, siltstone, claystone, chert and some descrete carbonate lenses. Locally, karst-like surfaces are filled with chalky high-grade phosphate that appear to replace the underlying limestone. This unit conformably and gradationally overlies Mt Hendry Formation which is a discontinuous conglomerate and sandstone. (Cook & Elgueta, 1986)

All the deposits formed under coastal, shallow marine conditions. These Cambrian sediments are covered by up to 71m of Mesozoic claystone and sandstone and Cainozoic alluvium and eluvium. Coarse to medium grained skeletal-ovulitic grainstone and packstone phosphorites are thought to have formed through reworking, transport and accumulation grains.  Phosphatic microsphorite are thought to have formed from the suspension of very fine grained detrital material or precipitation from the water column in very shallow supratidal areas. (Cook & Elgueta, 1986) The replacement phosphates are thought to have occurred due to post-depositional phosphate replacement of carbonate, such as found at D-Tree.

Exploration History and Forward Work Program

The Lady Annie, Lady Jane, D-Tree & Thorntonia phosphate deposits are located approximately 130 kilometres north-west of Mt Isa in the Georgina Basin. The historically published mineralized material estimates lie within the same geological rock unit and their size and tonnages are as follows:

Deposit

* Such non-reserve mineralized material would not qualify as a reserve until a comprehensive evaluation based upon unit cost, grade, recoveries and other material factors concludes being both legal and economic feasibility

Source of Information

Historically published resources & reserves in Queensland Minerals Mines & Projects, 4th Edition. From: 1 1990 Freeman, M.J., Shergold, J.H., Morris, D.G., & Walter, M.R. Late Proterozoic And Palaeozoic Basins of Central and Northern Australia - Regional Geology and Mineralisation. 2 1996 Draper, J.J Phosphate- Queensland Mineral Commodity Report, Queensland Government Mining Journal, 97 (1131) 14-25.

Past feasibility studies by BH South Ltd (Rogers J.K, 1988) occurred in 1974 on a phosphate rock beneficiation plant and slurry pipeline to the Queensland coast. Beneficiation test shafts and mining scale trenches were dug. A pilot plant built in 1973 produced 34% P205 concentrate at Lady Annie from 17% P205 rock (Cook, P.J. 1989). Feasibility was concluded at that time at a production rate of 4-5 million tonnes per year (Cook, P.J. 1989).

A thorough Open File Historical data review has commenced. Past exploration and reserve estimation data is being acquired and compiled into a global database for use in re-validating the past surveys, drilling and sampling. Appropriate Heritage, Environmental and Proposals for Works approvals are being sought. A detailed field sampling and drilling program is being developed in full awareness of quality control and compliance procedures to verify past data and re-establish the volumes and percentage of phosphate in these deposits. It is anticipated that fieldwork will commence mid 2008.

Access

Access to the Queensland project areas is by commercial airline to Mount Isa, a mining district in Queensland. From Mount Isa it is approximately 96 kilometres by road via the Barkly Highway, however helicopter is often used due to rugged terrain. Mount Isa has substantial infrastructure, accommodation and other facilities. Between April to November, in the dry season, four wheel drive vehicles can be used on dirt roads.

Government Regulations, Declarations & Conditions

The Company’s exploration operations are subject to federal and state laws and regulations governing the method of acquisition and ownership of mining rights, exploration, development, mining, production, taxes, labour standards, occupational health, mine safety, toxic substances other matters.   Federal and State legislation also governs environmental management and native title issues.  We are committed to and, to our knowledge, are in compliance with all governmental legislation and regulations.

Mineralisation

No known mineral reserves are known on our land in Queensland, however phosphate mineralized material deposits are recorded.  Our proposed program will be developed with a view to verify existing data and prove the mineralization up to mineralized material and reserve grade.

Government Requirements for Maintenance of Licences

To ensure that licences are kept in good standing the Company is required to pay the annual rent amount for each licence on its respective anniversary date.  The amount due is dependent upon the size and age of the licence.  The Company is also required to work the licences and meet the annual expenditure commitments.  Annual reporting is required, specifying details of the exploration programme which has occurred and which is anticipated for the following year.  Failure to comply would place the licences at risk of cancellation and therefore forfeit the right to explore on that ground.

Licence Conditions

The Company is required to meet certain standard conditions and obligations as specified by the Queensland Mineral Resources Act, Exploration Permits. These include conducting activities in a way which minimise environmental damage, rehabilitation, avoiding interference with registered native title sites or areas and ensuring compliance with any other relevant legislation. Programmes of Work are to be submitted at the time of application for any ground disturbance or exploration works, the conditions of which are clearly specified and adhered to. Security bonds are payable on the grant of the permits and additional conditions can be imposed by the government State Minister.

Native Title

The rights and obligations of the Company with respect to native title obligations differ depending upon the permit’s proposed impact on the land.  All the exploration permit applications held by the company will need to comply with the Native Title Act.  The overwhelming majority on permit applications will be advertised under the expedited procedure and require advertising to determine whether there are any objections.  If they are no objections, the Queensland Government can grant the permit and will impose the Native Title Protection Conditions on the permit before grant.  These conditions ensure that any native title claimants are aware of the proposed exploration work and gives them an opportunity to identify any culturally sensitive areas.  If there are objections, the company will need to negotiate an agreement with the native title claimants.  Following lodgement of this agreement with the Queensland government the permit will be granted.

Environment

The rights and obligations of the Company with respect to environmental management and rehabilitation are based upon the principles of disturbance minimisation, including such things as preservation of mature trees, preventing the spread of noxious weeds, avoiding the disturbance of waterways and waste management.  Rehabilitation is a condition of the Security bond and requires such things as sealing of collars, plugging of casings and replacement of topsoils.

Royalties

The royalty rate for phosphate rock is the higher of the following: (a) 80 cents for each tonne of phosphate rock; or (b) the rate, rounded down to 2 decimal places, for each tonne of phosphate rock worked out using the following formula –
 
GRAPHIC
where R is the royalty rate, G is the average P2O5 content of the phosphate rock for the return period, and Pcurr is the average price for the return period, converted to Australian dollars at the average hedge settlement rate for the return period, of Moroccan phosphate rock with 32.3% P2O5 content.

The royalty is payable to the State of Queensland.

Contractual Agreements in relation to Queensland Phosphate Interests

(i)
On November 2, 2007, we entered into an agreement with Iron Duyfken Pty Ltd to acquire three (3) project areas in the Georgina Basin of Queensland, Australia. Each project hosts a known and well documented, substantial deposit of phosphate rock (Cook, P.J, 1989, Howard, P.F, 1986). These deposits were delineated by earlier work conducted by previous major companies since 1967 and have been named the Lady Annie, Lady Jane and Thorntonia phosphate deposits. The deposits were defined in times when phosphate prices were low. Phosphate prices have risen considerably since those times due to increased world demand especially from China and India. Past feasibility studies on these deposits will be reassessed with a view to commercialization of the deposits, based on current prices. Legend agreed to pay A$500,000 and issue 500,000 shares of Common Stock as consideration.

(ii)
Effective November 7, 2007, we entered into an agreement with Ansett Resources & Industries Pty Ltd to acquire one (1) project area in the Georgina Basin of Queensland, Australia. The project hosts a known and well documented, substantial deposit of phosphate rock (Cook, P.J, 1989, Howard, P.F, 1986). The deposit was delineated by earlier work conducted by previous major companies since 1967 and have been named the D-Tree phosphate deposit. As set out above, the deposit was defined in times when phosphate prices were low. Phosphate prices have risen considerably since those times due to increased world demand especially from China and India. Past feasibility studies on this deposit will be reassessed with a view to commercialization of the deposit, based on current prices. Legend agreed to pay A$300,000 as consideration.

(iii)
We entered into a farm-in and joint venture heads of agreement with King Eagle Resources Pty Limited on December 7, 2007 pursuant to which Legend can earn an 80% interest in phosphate on three tenement blocks named Quita Creek, Highland Plains and Lily and Sherrin creek by spending $3 million on phosphate exploration over five years. Legend has no rights to any other minerals on the three tenement blocks.

(iv)
Effective February 27, 2008, we entered into a Share Sale Agreement whereby the Company agreed to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of Teutonic Minerals Pty Ltd. As a result, Teutonic became a subsidiary of the Company from that date. Teutonic holds an application for a mineral licence over phosphate in the Georgina Basin in the State of Queensland, Australia. The consideration payable to the vendors was A$300,000, and the Company granted a 1% gross revenue royalty from production from the mineral licence.

Landholdings
 
All of Legend’s landholdings (tenements) are held under licence from the Northern Territory Government in Australia. Tenements are granted as either exploration licences or mining leases.

Exploration licences can only be applied for over available ground.  Applications consist of a prescribed application form, proposed exploration programme with estimated expenditure and the prescribed application fee.  An exploration licence number is assigned when the application is received.  The Department then assesses the application to determine whether a company is a suitable candidate and proposes to spend sufficient funds on exploration on the licence.  If the Department considers a company to be a suitable candidate, the Department then commences the native title process which involves advertising for the purpose of determining whether there are any objections to the licence being granted. If there are no objections, the licence is granted.

The exploration licence is granted for six years provided the company continues to comply with the licences conditions.  There is a statutory requirement to reduce the area of the exploration licence by fifty percent before the end of years two, three, four and five.  An application to waive the reduction can be made at the time the reduction is due.

Rent is required to be paid each year in advance.  The cost per block is increased by 100% each year after year two.

An annual expenditure report is due each year, as a statement of the amount that has been spent on the ground.  An annual technical report is also due each year, as a statement of the exploration work that has been undertaken on the ground and what work is proposed to be undertaken for the coming year.

The exploration licence is due to expire at the end of year six but a renewal application can be lodged prior to the expiry to, if granted, extend the licence for another two years.  A summary of work completed on the ground together with a detailed explanation of the work proposed for the ground is required to accompany the renewal application.  The rent of the two year period is also required with the renewal application.

If the company proposes to mine a measured resource it will need to apply for a Mineral Lease.  As the Exploration Licence holder it has automatic priority to the ground to be the subject of the Mineral Lease.  Applications consist of a prescribed application form, details of the proposed development, the financial resources to fund the proposal and the prescribed application fee.  A mineral lease number is assigned when the application is received.  The Department then assesses the application to determine the suitability of the proposal.  The application will then pass through the native title process.  An agreement will need to be negotiated with the native title holders/claimants as part of the native title process.  The mineral leases must be surveyed before it is granted.

A mineral lease may be granted for such term as the Minister thinks fit.  The company is required to state the term of the lease required at the time of application.  The term required is stated on the application form.

Rent is required to be paid each year in advance.

An annual expenditure report is due each year, as a statement of what has been spent on the ground.  An annual technical report is also due each year, as a statement of what work has been done on the ground and what work is proposed for the coming year.

Geological History and Kimberlite Occurrence in the McArthur River Basin.

The North Australian Craton is one of two principal tectonic domains in the Northern Territory. The dominant tectonic episode for formation of the Craton, reworking the Archaean (or Palaeo-Proterozoic) basement, was the Barramundi Orogeny at 1865-1850Ma. Outcrops of these older deformed and metamorphosed rocks are now surrounded by younger basins.

13

 
The McArthur Group is the principal element of cover over the North Australian Craton, composed of mildly deformed and unmetamorphosed Meso-proterozoic (1800-570Ma) dolomitic carbonate, evaporates and sediments. The McArthur River Basin extends over 180,000 square kilometers and its sediments host a number of base metal occurrences including the McArthur Lead-Zinc-Silver shale-hosted deposit; strata-bound, disseminated Lead-Zinc deposits; the Redbank Copper deposits and Cobalt, Uranium and Iron.

The McArthur River Basin is covered by approximately 100 meters of Cambrian Bukalara sandstone and flood basalts in the south. Widespread, young Cretaceous sedimentation covered the region but much has been removed through erosion. One remnant of Cretaceous sediment is host to the Merlin field which represents the youngest volcanic event in the region.

The major structural feature in the McArthur Basin is the north to north-west trending Batten Trough or Batten Fault Zone approximately 70 kilometres wide, to which Legend’s holdings lie to the east. The Trough is bound on the west by the Emu Fault which transects Legend’s holdings in the McArthur River Project. The associated Mallapunyah and Calvert faults are approximately 50 kilometres apart and also trend north-west.

The presence of microdiamonds across the North Australian Craton defies geological boundaries, extending right across its heart. This wide distribution may be due to recycling of the microdiamonds through the younger Cretaceous by fluvial processes. However, an element of high-level fracture control is now evidenced by the Merlin deposits. Since the discovery of the Merlin field, diamond exploration approaches have shifted from Proterozoic mobile belts with little consideration of regional geology, to incorporate the range of fracture zones in the North Australian Craton. The North Australian Craton is extensively underlain by Archaean basement and deep lithospheric, cratonic rocks may be tapped by younger kimberlites as they intrude into these fractures. The Merlin kimberlites are certainly younger than their Cambrian sandstone host, yet older than their Cretaceous cover.

Access

Access to the Northern Territory project areas is by commercial airline to Darwin, the capital of the Northern Territory. From Darwin it is approximately 950 kilometres by road approximately 2 hours flying time by air. The nearest major town is Borroloola which has limited accommodation and other facilities, where Legend has a base. Access from Borroloola to the drilling sites is normally via helicopter as terrain is rugged. Between April to November, in the dry season, four wheel drive vehicles can be used on dirt roads however, distances from Borroloola to field sites range between 90 and 150 kilometres.

Access to the Queensland project areas is by commercial airline to Mount Isa, a mining district in Queensland. From Mount Isa it is approximately 96 kilometres by road however, helicopter is often used due to rugged terrain. Mount Isa has substantial infrastructure, accommodation and other facilities. Between April to November, in the dry season, four wheel drive vehicles can be used on dirt roads

Exploration History and Forward Work Program

Selby Project

The Selby project is located 100km SW of the coast of the Gulf of Carpentaria in the McArthur Basin, adjacent to the Georgina Basin which hosts Legend’s Queensland phosphates. Historically recorded phosphate rock outcrops at surface in recurrent lenses over a 60 kilometre strike. Uranium, which is a common by-product of marine phosphate deposits, accounting for a significant proportion of the world’s Uranium production, is also present.

An historical Open File review of the Selby region has also identified base metal results from stream sampling adjacent to the Karns Dolomite and regional fault systems. Historical data also reveals that the region remains prospective for diamonds.

14

 
A multi-facetted approach to exploration of the Selby phosphate was established in 2007. Geological mapping, rock chip, stream and loam sampling, diamond and RC drilling was undertaken.

Geochemical analysis of sampling will be undertaken to assist in the further development of this program, in order to adequately delineate the extent of phosphate present. Further work is anticipated to explore for structural or shale-hosted base metals.

McArthur River

Legend’s base metal project is situated approximately 20 kilometres south west of Borroloola. The Emu fault zone which runs through Legend’s tenements is a mineralised geological feature hosting the HYC Pyritic Shale base metal prospect and a number of known base metal deposits accounting for 8% of world base metal (lead-zinc-silver) production.

A detailed collation and analysis of a significant amount of available historical open file geophysical and geochemical data is underway. Tracks have been made to enable access for a detailed geological mapping program, stream & loam sampling. 149 RC/RAB drill holes have been approved and this drilling will commence in 2008.

Abner Range

The Abner Range Plateau is approximately 300 kilometers south of Borroloola, west of The Gulf of Carpentaria in the Northern Territory. It is host to the diamondiferous Abner Range Kimberlite part of the Merlin diamondiferous intrusive field, only seven kilometres north of Legend’s holdings. Past indicator mineral sampling by Ashton and Rio Tinto has recovered macrodiamonds, microdiamonds and chromite indicator minerals with no primary source yet determined.

Airborne Electro-Magnetic (“EM”), magnetic and gravity surveys flown in late 2006 have identified numerous EM, gravity & magnetic anomalies and grid-based loam samples were taken as follow up to this result and of other targets.

Geochemical analysis of the results of the loam gridding and sampling will be used to inform regions of high priority for ground gravity surveys. This will be conducted as a part of the ongoing diamond core and reverse circulation drilling program.

Glyde Project

The Glyde River is in the Batten Trough and hosts 40 kilometres of alluvial gravels sourced from numerous diamond bearing catchments including the entire Merlin diamond field. The pipes in the Merlin field are located on the eastern shoulder of the Battern Trough only six kilometres east of the Emu Fault. They have intruded the Cambrian Bukalara sandstone and were emplaced around the time of the Alice Springs Orogeny.

The Legend tenement is north of the HYC Pyritic Shale base metal prospect and this Member has been intersected in several drill holes. CRAE has explored the tenement area for kimberlite. Ashton collected two bulk samples from separate drainages and had diamond responses. Helicopter magnetics and EM covered the northern part of the tenement as part of Rio Tinto’s exploration around the Merlin pipe field.

An airborne geophysical program flown in late 2006 located many targets for drilling. Bulk sampling, stream and loam sampling and an RC drilling program was undertaken in December 2006.

The geochemistry of drilling and sampling undertaken in 2006 will be analysed in conjunction with geophysical and geological data in order to delineate priority targets. The tenement covering the Glyde River to the north will be examined for alluvial diamonds.

Foelsche Project

15

 
Legend’s Foelsche Project tenements lie east of the Glyde Project and Merlin diamond field. They are bound by regional scale faults which act as fluid conduits for mineralisation and have uplifted basement rocks up to lie against younger sandstones. The area contains historical trains of kimberlite indicator minerals in streams draining the area.

In 2005, airborne EM/magnetics were flown by Astro which identified priority geophysical anomalies. These were investigated with ground gravity surveys and RC/diamond drill holes in 2006. The source of the geophysical anomalies was attributed to depressions in the Proterozoic sandstone bedrock which were infilled by younger Cretaceous/Tertiary sediment. Similar infill sequences are known to typically occur over kimberlites in the region.

Many exploration targets at Foelsche are not yet explored and numerous kimberlite indicator mineral trains require follow-up. Re-appraisal of airborne EM/magnetics, additional aeromagnetic surveys and follow-up drilling is planned for the area.

Cox Project

The Cox Project covers approximately 8,676.9 square kilometers and is located between Roper Bar and Cape Crawford on the north western part of the Bauhinia Downs. In the 1980’s indicator mineral sampling by Ashton and Rio Tinto recovered numerous microdiamonds and three macrodiamonds. Magnetic anomolies and some chromite indicator minerals were found but a primary source was not found by these companies.

Exploration carried out over the Cox Project has included site investigations to verify historical sampling results, a compilation and analysis of historic exploration data from open-file reports and multi-client airborne magnetic data with a view to developing an appropriate exploration strategy.

A loam and stream sampling program is being developed to chase the results observed in the limited sampling undertaken to date. This would enable a thorough coverage of transportation systems in the tenements.

Tenement Commitment & Expenditure Figures (Past & Projected) Northern Territory, Australia.

The Department have verbally agreed with Legend that as long as legend spends more on exploration than the commitment on a project basis, the Department will consider legend to have met commitment and grant waiver of reduction applications. Furthermore, the Department agreed to grant waivers of the Cox project as a result of the amounts spent on other projects by Legend.

Government Regulations, Declarations & Conditions

The Company’s exploration operations are subject to federal and state laws and regulations governing the method of acquisition and ownership of mining rights, exploration, development, mining, production, taxes, labour standards, occupational health, mine safety, toxic substances other matters.  Federal and State legislation also governs environmental management and native title issues. We are committed to and, to our knowledge, are in compliance with all governmental legislation and regulations.

Mineralisation

No known mineral reserves are known on our land in the Northern Territory. Our previous and proposed programs are exploratory in nature.

Government Requirements for Maintenance of Licences

To ensure that licences are kept in good standing the Company is required to pay the annual rent amount for each licence on its respective anniversary date.  The amount due is dependent upon the size and age of the licence.  The Company is also required to work the licences and meet the annual expenditure commitments.  Annual reporting is required, specifying details of the exploration programme which has occurred and which is anticipated for the following year. Failure to comply would place the licences at risk of cancellation and therefore forfeit the right to explore on that ground.

Licence Conditions

The Company is required to meet certain standard conditions and obilgations as specified by the Northern Territory Of Australia Mining Act, Exploration Licence. These include conducting activities in a way which minimise environmental damage, rehabilitiation, avoiding interference with registered native title sites or areas and ensuring compliance with any other relevant legislation. Mine Management Plans are to be submitted for any ground disturbance or exploration works, the conditions of which are to be clearly specified for approval and adhered to. Security bonds are payable on Mine Management plans and additional conditions can be imposed by the government State or Territory Minister.

Native Title

The rights and obligations of the Company with respect to native title obligations differ between licences depending upon the underlying ownership of the land.  Crown land, namely pastoral lease land, falls under the Native Title Act while Aboriginal freehold land falls under the Aboriginal Land Rights Act (Northern Territory). All the granted licences held by the Company are on pastoral lease land.  The Company is currently in negotiations with the local native title council working towards the grant of several more applications that are situated on aboriginal freehold land. Heritage surveys are contracted where necessary to ensure the protection of local registered and unregistered aboriginal heritage sites.

Environment

The rights and obligations of the Company with respect to environmental management and rehabilitation are based upon the principles of disturbance minimisation, including such things as preservation of mature trees, preventing the spread of noxious weeds, avoiding the disturbance of waterways and waste management. Rehabilitation is a condition of the Security bond and requires such things as sealing of collars, plugging of casings and replacement of topsoils.

Royalties

Certain of the tenements have a 1% gross revenue royalty payable to an external party from all mineral production derived on the tenements.

Acquisition of Northern Territory Tenements

Effective as of March 3, 2006, Legend entered into a Contract for the Sale of Mining Tenements (“Contract”) with Astro Diamond Mines N.L. (“Astro”) an Australian company  pursuant to which the Company acquired certain diamond mining tenements in Northern Australia from Astro. The consideration payable by Legend to Astro was Australian dollars $1.5 million and Legend was also required to pay to Astro any costs incurred on the tenements after February 1, 2006.  Astro provided commercial warranties which are usual for a transaction of this nature in favour of Legend. Under Australian law, Astro was required to provide an independent experts report to shareholders for this transaction. In order to prepare the independent experts report, a mineral valuation was prepared on behalf of Astro which indicated that the preferred value for the tenements that are the subject of the transaction was A$1.5 million. This formed the basis of the consideration agreed by the parties. The President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. J. I. Gutnick was Chairman and Managing Director of Astro at the time of entering into the Contract and Dr DS Tyrwhitt, an independent Director of the Company, who is also a Director of Astro was a Director of Astro at the time of entering into the Contract. The tenements are located in the Northern Territory of Australia and are prospective for diamonds.

Employees

The services of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer & Secretary and General Manager Development and Resources as well as geological, finance and clerical employees are provided to us pursuant to a Service Agreement effective December 1, 2004 (the “Service Agreement”) by and between AXIS Consultants Pty Limited and ourselves.  AXIS also provides office facilities, equipment, administration and clerical services to the Company pursuant to the Service Agreement. The Service Agreement may be terminated by written notice from the parties thereto.

Further detail relating to additional terms of the Service Agreement is included in “Item 2- Properties”, “Item 12- Certain Relationships and Related Transactions” and “Item 10- Executive Compensation”.


Risk Factors.

We Lack an Operating History And Have Losses Which We Expect To Continue Into the Future.

To date we have had no material source of revenue. We have no operating history as a mineral exploration or mining company upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure can be made. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon:

 
-
exploration and development of any mineral property we identify;
 
 
-
our ability to locate economically viable mineral reserves in any mineral property we identify;
 
 
-
our ability to raise the capital necessary to conduct exploration and preserve our interest in mineral claims, increase our interest in mineral claims and continue as an exploration and mining company; and
 
 
-
our ability to generate revenues and profitably operate a mine on any mineral property we identify.

We Have No Mineral Reserves And We Cannot Assure You That We Will Find Such Reserves. If We Develop A Mineral Reserve, There Is No Guarantee That Production Will Be Profitable.

We cannot guarantee we will ever find any or that we will be successful in locating commercial mineral reserves on any exploration properties that we may obtain.  Even if we find a commercial mineral reserve, there is no assurance that we will be able to mine them. Even if we develop a mine, there is no assurance that we will make a profit. If we do not find commercial minerals you could lose part or all of your investment.

19

 
We Will Need Financing To Determine If There Is Commercial Minerals And To Maintain The Mineral Claims.

Our success will depend on our ability to raise capital. We will require substantial additional funds to conduct mineral exploration and development activities on our tenements. There is no assurance whatsoever that funds will be available from any source or, if available, that they can be obtained on terms acceptable to us to make investments. If funds are not available in the amounts required to achieve our business strategy, we would be unable to reach our objective. This could cause the loss of all or part of your investment.

The Report Of Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Contain An Explanatory Paragraph Questioning Our Ability To Continue As A Going Concern.

The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements as of December 31, 2007 and for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 includes an explanatory paragraph questioning our ability to continue as a going concern. This paragraph indicates that we have not yet commenced revenue producing operations and have a retained deficit at December 31, 2007 of A$13,993,863 which conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We Are A Small Operation And Do Not Have Significant Capital.

Because we will have limited working capital, we must limit our exploration. If we are unable to raise the capital required to undertake adequate exploration, we may not find commercial minerals even though properties that we may acquire may contain commercial minerals. If we do not find commercial minerals we may be forced to cease operations and you may lose your entire investment.

We Could Encounter Delays Due To Regulatory And Permitting Delays.

We could face delays in obtaining mining permits and environmental permits. Such delays, could jeopardize financing, if any, in which case we would have to delay or abandon work on the properties.

There Are Uncertainties Inherent In The Estimation Of Mineral Reserves.

Reserve estimates, including the economic recovery of ore, will require us to make assumptions about recovery costs and market prices. Reserve estimation is, by its nature, an imprecise and subjective process and the accuracy of such estimates is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation, judgment and experience. The economic feasibility of properties will be based upon our estimates of the size and grade of ore reserves, metallurgical recoveries, production rates, capital and operating costs, and the future price of diamonds. If such estimates are incorrect or vary substantially it could affect our ability to develop an economical mine and would reduce the value of your investment.

If We Define An Economic Ore Reserve And Achieve Production, It Will Decline In The Future. An Ore Reserve Is A Wasting Asset.

Our future ore reserve and production, if any, will decline as a result of the exhaustion of reserves and possible closure of any mine that might be developed.  Eventually, at some unknown time in the future, all of the economically extractable ore will be removed from the properties, and there will be no ore remaining unless this Company is successful in near mine site exploration to extend the life of the mining operation. This is called depletion of reserves. Ultimately, we must acquire or operate other properties in order to continue as an on going business. Our success in continuing to develop reserves, if any, will affect the value of your investment.

20

 
There Are Significant Risks Associated With Mining Activities.

The mining business is generally subject to risks and hazards, including quantity of production, quality of the ore, environmental hazards, industrial accidents, the encountering of unusual or unexpected geological formations, cave-ins, flooding, earthquakes and periodic interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions. These occurrences could result in damage to, or destruction of, our mineral properties or production facilities, personal injury or death, environmental damage, reduced production and delays in mining, asset write-downs, monetary losses and possible legal liability. We could incur significant costs that could adversely affect our results of operation.  Insurance fully covering many environmental risks (including potential liability for pollution or other hazards as a result of disposal of waste products occurring from exploration and production) is not generally available to us or to other companies in the industry. What liability insurance we carry may not be adequate to cover any claim.

We May Subject To Significant Environmental And Other Governmental Regulations That Can Require Substantial Capital Expenditure, And Can Be Time-Consuming.

We may be required to comply with various laws and regulations pertaining to exploration, development and the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment in the countries that we operate, all of which can increase the costs and time required to attain operations. We may have to obtain exploration, development and environmental permits, licenses or approvals that may be required for our operations. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining, if required, a permit to commence exploration, development and operation, or that such permit can be obtained in a timely basis. If we are unsuccessful in obtaining the required permits it may adversely affect our ability to carry on business and cause you to lose part or all of your investment.

Mining Accidents Or Other Adverse Events At Our Property Could Reduce Our Production Levels.

If and when we reach production it may fall below estimated levels as a result of mining accidents, cave-ins or flooding on the properties. In addition, production may be unexpectedly reduced if, during the course of mining, unfavourable ground conditions or seismic activity are encountered, ore grades are lower than expected, or the physical or metallurgical characteristics of the ore are less amenable to mining or processing than expected. The happening of these types of events would reduce our profitably or could cause us to cease operations which would cause you to lose part or all of your investment.

The acquisition of mineral properties is subject to substantial competition. If we must pursue alternative properties, companies with greater financial resources, larger staffs, more experience, and more equipment for exploration and development may be in a better position than us to compete for properties. We may have to undertake greater risks than more established companies in order to compete which could affect the value of your investment.

We May Lose Our Claims If We Do No Maintain A Minimum Level of Work On The Claims

We will be required to carry out a minimum level of work on each claim to maintain of our claims in good standing. If we cannot afford to carry out the work or pay the fees we could lose our interest in claims. The loss of some or all of our mineral claims would adversely affect the value of your investment.

We are substantially dependent upon AXIS Consultants To Carry Out Our Activities

We are substantially dependent upon AXIS for our senior management, financial and accounting, corporate legal and other corporate headquarters functions.  For example, each of our officers is employed by AXIS and, as such, is required by AXIS to devote substantial amounts of time to the business and affairs of the other shareholders of AXIS.

21

 
Pursuant to a services agreement, AXIS provides us with office facilities, administrative personnel and services, management and geological staff and services.  No fixed fee is set in the agreement and we are required to reimburse AXIS for any direct costs incurred by AXIS for us.  In addition, we pay a proportion of AXIS indirect costs based on a measure of our utilization of the facilities and activities of AXIS plus a service fee of not more than 15% of the direct and indirect costs. This service agreement may be terminated by us or AXIS on 60 days’ notice.  See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.”

We are one of four affiliated companies.  Each of the companies has some common Directors, officers and shareholders.  In addition, each of the companies is substantially dependent upon AXIS for its senior management and certain mining and exploration staff.  A number of arrangements and transactions have been entered into from time to time between such companies.  Currently, there are no material arrangements or planned transactions between the Company and any of the other affiliated companies other than AXIS.  However, it is possible we may enter into such transactions in the future which could present conflicts of interest.

Future Sales of Common Stock Could Depress The Price Of Our Common Stock

Future sales of substantial amounts of Common Stock pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 or otherwise by certain stockholders could have a material adverse impact on the market price for the Common Stock at the time.  As of the date of this annual report, there are 177,068,825 shares of Common Stock outstanding, of which 151,120,000 shares of Common Stock are restricted securities.  Restricted securities will be available for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.  In general, under rule 144, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who has satisfied a six-month holding period and who is not an affiliate of the Company may sell restricted securities without limitation as long as the Company is current in its SEC reports. A person who is an affiliate of the Company may sell within any three-month period a number of restricted securities which does not exceed the greater of one (1%) percent of the shares outstanding or the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks preceding the notice of sale required by Rule 144.  In addition, Rule 144 permits, under certain circumstances, the sale of restricted securities by a non-affiliate without any limitations after a one-year holding period.  Any sales of shares by stockholders pursuant to Rule 144 may have a depressive effect on the price of our Common Stock.

Our Common Stock Is Traded Over the Counter, Which May Deprive Stockholders Of The Full Value Of Their Shares

Our Common Stock is quoted via the Over The Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB).  As such, our Common Stock may have fewer market makers, lower trading volumes and larger spreads between bid and asked prices than securities listed on an exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market.  These factors may result in higher price volatility and less market liquidity for the Common Stock.

A Low Market Price May Severely Limit The Potential Market For Our Common Stock

Our Common Stock is currently trading at a price substantially below $5.00 per share, subjecting trading in the stock to certain SEC rules requiring additional disclosures by broker-dealers.  These rules generally apply to any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions (a “penny stock”).  Such rules require the delivery, prior to any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith and impose various sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and institutional or wealthy investors.  For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale.  The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to the broker-dealer, current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market.  Such information must be provided to the customer orally or in writing before or with the written confirmation of trade sent to the customer.  Monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.  The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements could discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our Common Stock.

22

 
The Market Price Of Your Shares Will Be Volatile.

The stock market price of mineral exploration companies like us has been volatile. Securities markets may experience price and volume volatility. The market price of our stock may experience wide fluctuations that could be unrelated to our financial and operating results. Such volatility or fluctuations could adversely affect your ability to sell your shares and the value you might receive for those shares.
 
Unresolved Staff Comments.

As of December 31, 2007, we do not have any Securities and Exchange Commission staff comments that have been unresolved for more than 180 days.
 
Properties.

Legend has exploration properties as discussed in “Item 1 – Description of Business”.  Legend occupies certain executive and office facilities in New York and in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia which are provided to it pursuant to the Service Agreement with AXIS.  See “Item 1 – Business - Employees” and “Item 12 – Certain Relationships and Related Transactions”.  Legend believes that its administrative space is adequate for its current needs.
 
Legal Proceedings.

There are no pending legal proceedings to which the Company is a party, or to which any of its property is the subject, which the Company considers material.
 
Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

As of February 29, 2008, there are 177,068,825 shares of Common Stock outstanding.

To date we have not paid dividends on our Common Stock and we do not expect to declare or pay any dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Payment of any dividends will depend upon our future earnings, if any, our financial condition, and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.

Shareholders
 
As of February 29, 2008, there were approximately 159 record holders of the Company's Common Stock. Within the holders of record of the Company's Common Stock are depositories such as Cede & Co., a nominee for The Depository Trust Company (or DTC), that hold shares of stock for brokerage firms which, in turn, hold shares of stock for one or more beneficial owners. Accordingly, the Company believes there are many more beneficial owners of its Common Stock whose shares are held in "street name", not in the name of the individual shareholder.

Options
 
Effective as of December 12, 2005, the Board of Directors of Company approved the distribution to stockholders for no consideration of an aggregate of 36,135,500 non-transferable options, each of which is exercisable to purchase one share of Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of US$0.25 ($0.111, as adjusted) per share with a latest exercise date of December 31, 2012 and otherwise on the terms and conditions set out in Appendix A to the Form 8-K dated December 12, 2005.  The options were issued on a pro-rata basis to all stockholders of record on December 31, 2005 on the basis of two (2) options for every one (1) share of Common Stock owned by a stockholder on the record date. The options may not be exercised until the shares underlying the options are registered under federal and state securities laws. On June 26, 2006, the Board of Directors amended the terms and conditions of the options and included a cashless exercise clause for the options in the terms and conditions. On July 21, 2006, Renika exercised 34,778,220 options using the cashless exercise feature and were issued 71,730,079 shares of Common Stock. In December 2006, the Company issued 700,000 shares with attaching options on the basis of one option for every two shares at no exercise price. The options were exercised in December 2006. On December 27, 2006, a further optionholder exercised 19,000 options using the cashless exercise feature and were issued 24,750 shares of Common Stock.  3,123,630 of these options remained outstanding as of the date of this prospectus.

Dividend Policy
 
The Company has not previously paid any cash dividends on Common Stock and does not anticipate or contemplate paying dividends on Common Stock in the foreseeable future. It is the present intention of management to utilize all available funds for the development of the Company's business. The only restrictions that limit the ability to pay dividends on common equity or that are likely to do so in the future, are those restrictions imposed by law. Under Delaware corporate law, no dividends or other distributions may be made which would render the Company insolvent or reduce assets to less than the sum of its liabilities plus the amount needed to satisfy any outstanding liquidation preferences.

Effective November 17, 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a 1-for-2 share bonus issue in the form of a dividend that was payable in December 2006 to stockholders of record as of November 17, 2006.  An aggregate of 27,599,722 shares of Common Stock were issued in connection with this dividend.

In November 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a second 1-for-2 share bonus issue in the form of a dividend that was payable in January 2007 to stockholders of record as of December 31, 2006.  An aggregate of 41,934,337 shares of Common Stock were issued in connection with this dividend.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.

General

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and plan of operation should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and accompanying notes and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report.  This report contains numerous forward-looking statements relating to our business. Such forward-looking statements are identified by the use of words such a s believes, intends, expects, hopes, may, should, plan, projected, contemplates, anticipates or similar words. Actual operating schedules, results of operations, ore grades and mineral deposit estimates and other projections and estimates could differ materially form those projected in the forward-looking statements.

We are an exploration stage mining company.  Our principal exploration target is for phosphate. We are in the initial stages of our exploration program and we have not yet identified any ore reserves.  We have not generated any material revenues from operations

Foreign Currency Translation

The majority of our administrative operations are in Australia and, as a result, our accounts are reported in Australian dollars. The income and expenses of its foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars at the average exchange rate prevailing during the period. Assets and liabilities of the foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars at the period-end exchange rate. The following table shows the period-end rates of exchange of the Australian and US dollar compared with the US dollar during the periods indicated.

The exchange rate between the A$ and US$ has moved by 11.07% between December 31, 2006 and 2007.  Accordingly, a direct comparison of costs between fiscal 2006 and 2007 may not necessarily be a true comparison.

Plan of Operation

We have A$17,088,190 in cash at December 31, 2007.

We commenced exploration activities on the tenements we acquired in July 2006 and since that time and up to December 31, 2007, have spent A$8,943,385 on exploration activities. We plan to continue our exploration program throughout 2008 and anticipate spending A$5,000,000 on exploration. However, if exploration results are positive, we believe that we will be able to raise additional equity capital in order to progress our exploration program at a faster rate.

As set out in Item 1 “Employees” the services of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, General Manager Development and Resources, geologists, finance and clerical employees are provided by AXIS.  At the current time, we have no plans to change these arrangements or employ any further persons.

Results of Operations

Year ended December 31, 2007 versus Year ended December 31, 2006

Effective November 17, 2006, Legend issued one (1) new bonus share of Common Stock for every two (2) shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record at that date. The issue of the new bonus shares of Common Stock were on a pro-rate basis to all shareholders. As a result, the Company issued 27,599,722 shares of its Common Stock. Effective December 31, 2006, Legend issued one (1) new bonus share of Common Stock for every two (2) shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record at that date. The issue of the new bonus shares of Common Stock were on a pro-rata basis to all shareholders. As a result, the Company issued 41,934,337 shares of its Common Stock.

28

 
The Company has accounted for these bonus issues as a stock split and accordingly, all share and per share data has been retroactively restated.

As an exploration company, we do not have an ongoing source of revenue. Our revenue stream is normally from ad-hoc tenement disposals and interest received on cash in bank. During the year ended December 31, 2007, we received A$22,183 (US$19,448) in interest on funds in the bank (2006: A$1,930).

Costs and expenses increased during the year from A$4,536,507 for the year ended December 31, 2006 to A$8,539,934 (US$7,486,960) for the year ended December 31, 2007.

The main components of costs and expenses are as follows:-

(i)
An increase in exploration expenditure written off from A$3,811,385 in 2006 to A$5,132,000 (US$4,499,224) in 2007. Our accounting policy is to expense all exploration costs (including costs associated with the acquisition of tenement interests) as incurred. During 2007, we incurred A$3,729,592 in costs for exploration drilling on our tenements in the Northern Territory. The costs included drilling, helicopter support, geological/geophysical contractors, salaries and associated costs for contract field staff, travel, accommodation, meals and tenement holding costs. During 2007, we used drillers almost continuously on our exploration program. In December 2007, we entered into agreements to purchase exploration permits in Queensland. The purchase price of A$1,318,000 included cash of A$800,000, and shares with a value of A$518,000. The total cost has been expensed as part of exploration costs. We have spent A$84,408 since entering into the agreements on purchasing and reviewing data for the permits. In 2006, the Company acquired certain diamond mining tenements in Northern Australia for A$1,500,000, paid A$81,000 in stamp duty, A$921,131 of exploration expenditure incurred by Astro from February 1, 2006 to September 30, 2006 and A$1,309,244 of exploration expenditure incurred since acquisition by the Company. All costs incurred in connection with this acquisition have been expensed as part of exploration costs. The Company commenced a drilling program on the tenement interests in the Northern Territory of Australia as soon as settlement of the acquisition of the tenements was completed.

(ii)
An increase in interest expense from A$41,371 in 2006 to A$62,196 (US$54,528) in 2007. During 2007, we incurred A$25,235 for interest on the camp lease; A$1,807 motor vehicle finance lease; A$14,683 charged by AXIS on outstanding amounts owing under the Service Agreement, which was repaid in June 2007; A$16,774 charged by Astro on amounts owed for exploration expenditure incurred by Astro, which was repaid in March 2007, and A$3,697 for short term funds used to maintain the Company’s activities. AXIS provides management and geological services to us pursuant to a Service Agreement dated December 2004. AXIS and Astro charged interest at a rate of 10.10% during 2007. During 2006, we borrowed A$324,951 from Wilzed, a company which our President and CEO is a Director and shareholder and in October 2006, the total debt of A$336,081 was repaid. Wilzed charged us A$3,588 in interest at a rate between 9.35% to 9.85% during 2006. AXIS charged us A$13,498 in interest for 2006 at a rate between 9.35% to 10.10% during 2006 on accounts owing under the Service Agreement. Astro charged us A$21,302 in interest on amounts owed for exploration expenditure incurred by Astro.

(iii)
An increase in legal, professional and accounting from A$89,351 for 2006 to A$213,063 (US$186,792) for 2007. During 2007, we incurred legal expenses of A$91,483 for general legal work including stock transfer matters, regulatory filings, stock option plans and Form SB-2 Registration Statement; audit fees of A$62,049 for professional services in relation to financial statements, the quarterly Form 10-QSBs, Form 10-KSB, Form 10-K and Form SB-2; and A$59,531 for a stock transfer agent and regulatory filing fees. All fees have increased from 2006 as a result of increased activity by the Company as a consequence of the acquisition of mining tenements, capital raising activities and preparation of the Form SB-2 Registration Statement. During 2006, we incurred legal expenses of A$28,295 in relation to general legal work including stock transfer matters, stock option plans and regulatory filings; audit fees of A$35,062 for professional services in relation to financial statements, the quarterly Form 10-QSBs and Form 10-KSB; and A$25,993 for a stock transfer agent and regulatory filing fees.

(iv)
An increase in administrative costs from A$479,093 in 2006 to A$2,753,365 (US$2,413,875) in 2007. During 2007, the corporate management and service fees charged to us by AXIS was A$410,416 (US$359,812). AXIS charged us A$454,107 (US$398,116) for Directors’ fees, salaries  and salary related matters incurred in behalf of the Company, which relates to our share of salaries paid to the President & Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, General Manager Development and Resources, General Manager Business and other staff of AXIS who provide services to the Company. One independent Director charged directly to the Company the amount of A$20,000 for 2007. The Company paid insurance premiums of A$35,100 for 2007 compared to the 2006 premium was only for five months.

There was no comparable amount in 2006 for A$604,805 (US$530,233) for registration statement non-performance; A$111,197 for New York rent; A$49,256 for subscription to industry papers and services; A$15,564 for telecommunications support; A$14,751 for website maintenance; A$15,601 for depreciation of non-field assets and minor equipment purchases, A$8,238 for franchise tax, general costs of A$10,791 and A$8,791 for printing and stationery. AXIS charge A$120,000 for asset usage of plant and equipment of which $60,000 was charged to costs in 2007 and there was no comparable amount for 2006. The overall increase in administration costs related to the increase in activity by the Company as a consequence of providing support to a field exploration program from mid February 2007 to November 2007, capital raising activities, preparation of regulatory filings and Form SB-2 Registration Statement. During 2006, the management fee charged by AXIS to us was $76,910. AXIS charged us A$75,410 for Director’s fees and salaries incurred on behalf of the Company. One independent Director charged directly to the Company the amount of A$35,000 for the period from the date of his appointment to December 31, 2006. The Company paid A$8,350 in insurance premiums for policies that commenced in August 2006. The Company incurred A$66,477 in travel and accommodation costs, A$61,878 in relation to travel by Directors and officers on capital raising trips and A$4,598 for travel of support contractors to the field; A$193,513 for consultants, A$179,464 for investor relations consultants and A$14,049 for lodging annual tax returns, employee share option valuation and exploration tenement maintenance; A$8,350 for postage and freight costs; A$11,351 for motor vehicle costs related to the motor vehicle proposals for the field program.
 
(v)
Stock based compensation has increased from A$115,307 for 2006 to A$375,740 (US$329,411) for 2007. The Company has issued options under the 2006 Incentive Option Plan in September 2006, May 2007, September 2007 and December 2007. The increase is a result of additional options issued and includes an adjustment for forfeited options. See note 4 for further details on the options issued.
 
Accordingly, the loss from operations increased from A$4,534,577 for the year ended December 31, 2006 to A$8,517,751 (US$7,467,512) for the year ended December 31, 2007.

There was no provision for tax in either the prior year or the current year.

The net loss amounted to A$8,638,129 (US$7,573,047) for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to a net loss of A$4,574,594 for the year ended December 31, 2006.

The net loss per common equivalent share in 2007 was A$0.06 (US$0.05) compared with a net loss with a common equivalent share price of A$0.06 (US$0.05) in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2007, the Company has cash of A$17,088,190 (US$14,981,216).

On December 12, 2007, we entered into a Subscription Agreement with Atticus European Fund Ltd. and Green Way Managed Account Series Ltd. in respect of its segregated account, Green Way Portfolio D (collectively “Atticus”) pursuant to which the Company issued in a private placement transaction (the “Private Placement”) to Atticus an aggregate of 18,750,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of US$0.80 per share for an aggregate purchase price of US$15,000,000 (A$16,924,292).  We agreed to prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock, which registration statement was filed on February 13, 2008.

During fiscal 2007, net cash used in operating activities was A$7,048,738 (US$6,179,629), as compared to A$4,125,135 in 2006, reflecting the commencement of the Company’s diamond exploration activities in 2006.

During fiscal 2007, net cash provided by financing activities was A$23,435,853 (US$20,546,212) which represented the proceeds of private placements offering of shares of Common Stock and repayment of short term financing facilities, as compared to A$4,977,205 in 2006.

We commenced exploration activities on the tenements we acquired in July 2006 and since that time and up to December 31, 2007, have spent A$8,943,385 on exploration activities which includes the amounts paid in connection with our Astro acquisition and purchase of exploration permits in Queensland. We plan to continue our exploration program throughout 2008 and anticipate spending A$5,000,000 on exploration. However, if exploration results are positive, we believe that we will be able to raise additional equity capital in order to progress our exploration program at a faster rate. In addition, we expect that we will need to spend $2,000,000 on legal, professional, accounting and administration expenses. The Company will need to raise funds in cash to fund its business plan.  The Company plans to satisfy its cash requirements by additional equity financing or loans. This will be in the form of private placements of restricted Common Stock, preferred stock or debentures. The Company may not be able to operate if it does not obtain the additional capital or financing it requires. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising such capital or financing and thus, be able to satisfy its cash requirements.

The Company is considered to be an exploration stage company, with no significant revenue, and is dependent upon the raising of capital through placement of its Common Stock, preferred stock or debentures. In the event the Company is unsuccessful in raising such capital, it may never commence active operations.

Involvement on Certain Material Legal Proceedings During the Last Five Years

No director, officer, significant employee or consultant has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, exclusive of traffic violations.  No director, officer, significant employee or consultant has been permanently or temporarily enjoined, barred, suspended or otherwise limited from involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities. No director, officer or significant employee has been convicted of violating a federal or state securities or commodities law.

Board of Directors

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that there must be at least one Director of the Company.  Our Board of Directors currently consists of two directors.

Directors need not be stockholders of the Company or residents of the State of Delaware.  Directors are elected for an annual term and generally hold office until the next Directors have been duly elected and qualified.  Directors may receive compensation for their services as determined by the Board of Directors. A vacancy on the Board may be filled by the remaining Directors even though less than a quorum remains.  A Director appointed to fill a vacancy remains a Director until his successor is elected by the Stockholders at the next annual meeting of Shareholder or until a special meeting is called to elect Directors.

The executive officers of the Company are appointed by the Board of Directors.  There are no family relationships between any Directors or executive officers of the Company other than as disclosed.

Our Board of Directors consists of two members, of whom one has been, and continues to be, independent under applicable regulations. During fiscal 2007, our Board of Directors met four times. The Board of Directors also uses resolutions in writing to deal with certain matters and during fiscal 2007, six resolutions in writing were signed by all Directors.

The Company encourages all Directors to attend the Annual Meeting of stockholders, either in person or by telephone. The Directors did not attend the 2007 Annual Meeting as they were overseas on business.

Nominating Committee

We do not have a nominating committee. Historically our entire Board has selected nominees for election as directors. The Board believes this process has worked well thus far particularly since it has been the Board's practice to require unanimity of Board members with respect to the selection of director nominees. In determining whether to elect a director or to nominate any person for election by our stockholders, the Board assesses the appropriate size of the Board of Directors, consistent with our bylaws, and whether any vacancies on the Board are expected due to retirement or otherwise. If vacancies are anticipated, or otherwise arise, the Board will consider various potential candidates to fill each vacancy. Candidates may come to the attention of the Board through a variety of sources, including from current members of the Board, stockholders, or other persons.  The Board of Directors has not yet had the occasion to, but will, consider properly submitted proposed nominations by stockholders who are not directors, officers, or employees of Legend on the same basis as candidates proposed by any other person.

Audit and Compensation Committees

We do not have an Audit Committee or a Compensation Committee as we only have two Directors, only one of whom (Dr. Tyrwhitt) may be deemed to be independent.  However, Dr Tyrwhitt liaises directly with the auditors on matters normally dealt with by an Audit Committee. It is the opinion of the Board of Directors that Mr. Tyrwhitt is an independent director as defined in Rule 10A-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In addition, the Board believes that Mr. Tyrwhitt would meet the director independence requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market if we were listed on such Market. Our Board does not include a "financial expert" as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K. The Company only has one independent Director and this Director does not have a finance background.
 
34

 
Executive and Director compensation matters are determined by the entire Board of Directors.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Conduct and Ethics and it applies to all Directors, Officers and employees.  A copy of the Code of Conduct and Ethics will be posted on our website and we will provide a copy to any person without charge.  If you require a copy, you will be able to download it from our website at www.lgdi.net or alternatively, contact us by facsimile or email and we will send you a copy.

Stockholder Communications with the Board

Stockholders who wish to communicate with the Board of Directors should send their communications to the Chairman of the Board at the address listed below. The Chairman of the Board is responsible for forwarding communications to the appropriate Board members.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our Directors, executive officers and beneficial owners of more than 10% of the outstanding Common Stock are required to file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission concerning their ownership of and transactions in our Common Stock and are also required to provide to us copies of such reports.  Based solely on such reports and related information furnished to us, we believe that in fiscal 2007 all such filing requirements were complied with in a timely manner by all Directors and executive officers and 10% stockholders, except that Mr. Gutnick and Renika Pty Ltd. filed one Form 4 in connection with the sale of stock and Mr. Gutnick filed one Form 4 with respect to the receipt of options. Mr Lee filed two Form 4’s in connection with the receipt of options and Mr Michael filed a Form 3 and two Form 4’s in connection with the receipt of options after the respective due dates of such forms.

2006 Equity Incentive Plan

The 2006 Plan provides for the granting of options. The maximum number of shares available for awards is 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock on issue at any time.  If an option expires or is cancelled without having been fully exercised or vested, the remaining shares will generally be available for grants of other awards.

The 2006 Plan is administered by the Board comprised solely of directors who are not employees or consultants to Legend or any of its affiliated entities.

Any employee, director, officer, consultant of or to Legend or an affiliated entity (including a company that becomes an affiliated entity after the adoption of the 2006 Plan) is eligible to participate in the 2006 Plan if the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines that such person has contributed significantly or can be expected to contribute significantly to the success of Legend or an affiliated entity. During any one year period, no participant is eligible to be granted options to purchase more than 5% shares of our issued and outstanding Common Stock or if they provide investor relations activities, or are a consultant to the Company, 2% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock in any 12 month period.

Options granted under the 2006 Plan are to purchase Legend Common Stock.  The term of each option will be fixed by the Board, but no option will be exercisable more than 10 years after the date of grant.  The option exercise price is fixed by the Board at the time the option is granted.  The exercise price must be paid in cash. Options granted to participants vest and have a term of 10 years.

36

 
No award is transferable, or assignable by the participant except upon his or her death.

The Board may amend the 2006 Plan, except that no amendment may adversely affect the rights of a participant without the participant’s consent or be made without stockholder approval if such approval is necessary to qualify for or comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation the Board deems necessary or desirable to qualify for or comply with.

Subject to earlier termination by the Board, the 2006 Plan has an indefinite term except that no ISO may be granted following the tenth anniversary of the date the 2006 Plan is approved by stockholders.

Other than the issue of these Options, there are no other current plans or arrangements to grant any options under the 2006 Plan.

Compensation Pursuant to Plans

The Company does not have any pension or profit sharing plans.  The Company does not have any employees and therefore has no superannuation obligations.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

The following table sets forth, as of December 31, 2007, information regarding options under our 2006 stock option plan, our only active plan.  The 2006 stock option plan has been approved by our stockholders.  Outstanding options under this plan that are forfeited or cancelled will be available for future grants.  All of the options are for the purchases of our Common Stock.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.

In December 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with AXIS Consultants Pty Ltd to provide geological, management and administration services to the Company.  AXIS is affiliated through common management. We are one of four affiliated companies.  Each of the companies has some common Directors, officers and shareholders.  In addition, each of the companies is substantially dependent upon AXIS for its senior management and certain mining and exploration staff.  A number of arrangements and transactions have been entered into from time to time between such companies.  It has been the intention of the affiliated companies and respective Boards of Directors that each of such arrangements or transactions should accommodate the respective interest of the relevant affiliated companies in a manner which is fair to all parties and equitable to the shareholders of each. Currently, there are no material arrangements or planned transactions between the Company and any of the other affiliated companies other than AXIS.

AXIS is a company owned by its public companies (including Legend) and any profits generated by AXIS are returned to its shareholders in the form of dividends.

AXIS is paid by each company for the costs incurred by it in carrying out the administration function for each such company.  Pursuant to the Service Agreement, AXIS performs such functions as payroll, maintaining employee records required by law and by usual accounting procedures, providing insurance, legal, human resources, company secretarial, land management, certain exploration and mining support, financial, accounting advice and services.  AXIS procures items of equipment necessary in the conduct of the business of the Company.  AXIS also provides for the Company various services, including but not limited to the making available of office supplies, office facilities and any other services as may be required from time to time by the Company as and when requested by the Company.

We are required to reimburse AXIS for any direct costs incurred by AXIS for the Company.  In addition, we are required to pay a proportion of AXIS’s overhead cost based on AXIS’s management estimate of our utilisation of the facilities and activities of AXIS plus a service fee of not more than 15% of the direct and overhead costs. Amounts invoiced by AXIS are required to be paid by us.  We are also not permitted to obtain from sources other than AXIS, and we are not permitted to perform or provide ourselves, the services contemplated by the Service Agreement, unless we first requests AXIS to provide the service and AXIS fails to provide the service within one month.

The Service Agreement may be terminated by AXIS or us upon 60 days prior notice.  If the Service Agreement is terminated by AXIS, we would be required to independently provide, or to seek an alternative source of providing, the services currently provided by AXIS.  There can be no assurance that we could independently provide or find a third party to provide these services on a cost-effective basis or that any transition from receiving services under the Service Agreement will not have a material adverse effect on us.  Our inability to provide such services or to find a third party to provide such services may have a material adverse effect on our operations.

In accordance with the Service Agreement AXIS provides the Company with the services of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, geologists and clerical employees, as well as office facilities, equipment, administrative and clerical services. We pay AXIS for the actual costs of such facilities plus a maximum service fee of 15%.

During 2006, AXIS charged the Company A$203,664 in management fees and administration services, A$212,679 for exploration services provided to the Company, charged interest of A$13,498 on the outstanding balance, loaned us $4,500 and the Company repaid A$180,000. AXIS charged interest at a rate of between 9.35% and 10.10% for 2006. AXIS did not charge a service fee for 2006. The amount owed to AXIS at December 31, 2006 was A$312,253.  During 2007, AXIS charged the Company A$1,126,311 in management fees including salaries incurred in relation to AXIS staff that provided services to the Company, A$834,552 for exploration services provided to the Company, A$151,800 for asset usage, interest of A$14,683 and we repaid A$2,432,687. AXIS charged interest at a rate of 10.10% for 2007. The amount owed to AXIS at December 31, 2007 was A$6,912.

On December 14, 2004, the Company issued 20,250,000 options to Renika Pty Ltd (“Renika”) as consideration for services to be rendered by the new President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  The 20,250,000 options convert to 20,250,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.022 and a latest exercise date of December 2009.  The Company undertook a Black Scholes valuation of the options using a $0.022 exercise price, $0.022 market price, 5 year life, risk free interest rate of 5.155% and a volatility of 16.7% which equated to a value of $123,300.  The $0.022 market price was based on the price of the Company’s shares of Common Stock at the time.  In the absence of any independent directors on the Company’s Board, the Company’s sole director, Mr. Gutnick, appointed Dr. David Tyrwhitt to approve the terms of the options on behalf of the Company.  In September 2005, Renika exercised the 20,250,000 options using the cashless exercise feature and were issued 17,085,937 shares of Common Stock.

Wilzed Pty Ltd, a company associated with President and CEO of the Company, Joseph Gutnick, has paid expenses on behalf of the Company and has provided loan funds to enable the Company to meet its liabilities. During the 2006 fiscal year, Wilzed loaned A$324,951 and charged A$3,588 in interest, and we repaid $336,081. The amount owed at December 31, 2006 was A$nil. Wilzed charged interest at a rate of between 9.35% and 9.85% for 2006.

Mr Joseph Gutnick, the President of the Company advanced the Company the initial deposit on opening a US Dollar bank account. In March, 2007, the balance of A$831, owing of the initial advance of A$1,303 (US$1,000) less expenses incurred of A$472, was repaid.

Effective as of March 3, 2006, Legend entered into a Contract for the Sale of Mining Tenements (“Contract”) with Astro Diamond Mines N.L. (“Astro”) an Australian company pursuant to which the Company acquired certain diamond mining tenements in Northern Australia from Astro. The consideration payable by Legend to Astro was A$1.5 million and Legend was also required to pay to Astro any costs incurred on the tenements after February 1, 2006.  Astro provided commercial warranties which are usual for a transaction of this nature in favour of Legend. Under Australian law, Astro was required to provide an independent experts report to shareholders for this transaction. In order to prepare the independent experts report, a mineral valuation was prepared on behalf of Astro which indicated that the preferred value for the tenements that are the subject of the transaction was A$1.5 million. This formed the basis of the consideration agreed by the parties. The President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. J. I. Gutnick, was Chairman and Managing Director of Astro and Dr DS Tyrwhitt, an independent Director of the Company is also a Director of Astro. The tenements are located in the Northern Territory of Australia and are prospective for all minerals. Astro incurred costs on the mining tenements from February 1, 2006 which at settlement Legend was required to pay. However, Astro had not quantified the amount at the date of settlement. At December 31, 2006, the Company owed Astro A$942,433 including interest of A$21,302. During 2007, the amount was repaid in full including interest charge for 2007 of A$16,774. Astro charged interest at a rate of 10.10% in 2007.

The Company appointed Mr. Mordechai Gutnick, as the Company’s General Manager, Business in December, 2007.  Mr.  Gutnick is the son of Joseph Gutnick, the Company’s President and Chairman of the Board.  Mr. Mordechai Gutnick receives an annual salary paid via AXIS.  In addition, in December, 2007, Mr. Mordechai Gutnick was granted 2,000,000 stock options:

Transactions with Management.

We have a policy that we will not enter into any transaction with an Officer, Director or affiliate of us or any member of their families unless the transaction is approved by a majority of our disinterested non-employee Directors and the disinterested majority determines that the terms of the transaction are no less favourable to us than the terms available from non-affiliated third parties or are otherwise deemed to be fair to us at the time authorised.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Legend International Holdings, Inc

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Legend International Holdings, Inc (An Exploration Stage Company) as of December 31, 2007, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the cumulative amounts from inception, January 5, 2001 through December 31, 2007.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

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

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Legend International Holdings, Inc. at December 31, 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods indicated above in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  As described in note 1, at December 31, 2007 the Company had not yet commenced revenue producing operations and had a retained deficit of A$13,993,863. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in note 1.

The Company has never generated any significant revenues from operations and is still considered an exploration stage company.  The Company was initially formed to engage in the business of selling compatible inkjet cartridges and refill kits on the Internet for the consumer printer market.  In March 2003, management of the Company decided to engage in the business of building and acquiring controlling or other interests in one or more companies engaged in the contract sales and distribution of specialty medical products, and raise additional capital for this purpose.  Neither business was successful and operations of both were eventually discontinued.  During fiscal 2004, management of the Company developed a plan of operations to acquire income-producing real property.  The Company did not acquire any properties pursuant to such plan.

Following a change of management in November 2004, the Company developed a new plan of operations for fiscal 2006, which is to engage in mineral exploration and development activities.  The Company's current business plan calls for the identification of mineral properties where it can obtain secure title to exploration, development and mining interests. The Company’s preference is to identify large minerals deposits with low operating costs. The Company is prepared to consider the exploration, development and mining of profitable base metal interests.  At the beginning of 2006, the Company expanded its areas of interest to include diamond exploration activities and in July 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of certain diamond mining tenements in Northern Australia. Since that time, the Company has identified that those mining tenements in Northern Australia also have potential for uranium and base metals. In November 2007, the Company acquired mining tenements prospective for phosphate in the State of Queensland, Australia.

The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has incurred net losses since its inception.

Exploration Stage Enterprise

The Company is an exploration stage enterprise. The Company is devoting all of its present efforts in securing and establishing its exploration business through field sampling and drilling programs in the State of Queensland and the Northern Territory of Australia.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), which provides clarification related to the process associated with accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in consolidated financial statements. FIN 48 prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance related to, among other things, classification, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and disclosure requirements. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Company’s future reported financial position or results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements which provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 157 provides a common definition of fair value and establishes a framework to make the measurement of fair value in generally accepted accounting principles more consistent and comparable. SFAS No. 157 also requires expanded disclosures to provide information about the extent to which fair value is used to measure assets and liabilities, the methods and assumptions used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measures on earnings. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this interpretation is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s future reported financial position or results of operations.

F-7

 
In February 2007 the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”, which permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this interpretation is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s future reported financial position or results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”), which replaces SFAS 141. SFAS 141(R) requires assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination, contingent consideration, and certain acquired contingencies to be measured at their fair values as of the date of acquisition. SFAS 141(R) also requires that acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs be recognized separately from the business combination. SFAS 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and will be effective for business combinations entered into after January 1, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this statement on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cashflows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 clarifies the accounting for noncontrolling interests and establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, including classification as a component of equity. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company does not currently have any minority interests.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Exploration Expenditure

Exploration expenditure consisting of acquisition cost and related expenditure, prospecting and exploration costs are written off into operations as incurred.

Functional and Reporting Currency

Prior to July 31, 2006, the Company’s functional currency was the US dollar. However, as a result of the purchase of diamond mining tenements in Northern Australia in July 2006, the Company’s 2006 revenue and expenses will be primarily denominated in Australian dollars (A$). Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (‘‘SFAS’’) No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation, states that the functional currency of an entity is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Accordingly the Company determined that from August 1, 2006 the functional currency of the Company is the Australian dollar. Assets, liabilities and equity were translated at the rate of exchange at July 31, 2006.  Revenue and expenses were translated at actual rates. Translation gains and losses were included as part of accumulated other comprehensive gain.

Restatement of comparative numbers was made for the change in functional and reporting currency. The change was adopted prospectively beginning July 31, 2006 in accordance with SFAS No. 52.

Stock Options

For the issuances of stock options, the Company follows the fair value provisions of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R) “Share Based Payments”. SFAS 123(R) requires the company to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on grant date fair value.  The cost will be recognised over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award – usually the vesting period.  In the case where there is no required service period, the fair value of the equity instruments is expensed immediately.

F-8

 
Loss per Common Share

Basic loss per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. Diluted loss per share is not presented as the effect of Common Stock equivalents would be anti dilutive.

Comprehensive Income

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances.  Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners.  Among other disclosures, SFAS No. 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. The translation gains and losses from the change to functional currency of the Company from August 1, 2006 are included as part of the accumulated other comprehensive loss. Comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 amounted to A$8,636,129 and A$4,536,104 respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed over a period covering the estimated useful life of the applicable property and equipment.

The depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2007 amounted to A$19,949 (US$17,489) and the year ended December 31, 2006 A$1,021.

Cash

Cash consists of all cash balances and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. Because of the short maturity of these investments, the carrying amounts approximate their fair value.

Federal Income Tax

The Company has adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes.  The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. For the period presented, there was no taxable income. There are no deferred income taxes resulting from temporary differences in reporting certain income and expense items for income tax and financial accounting purposes. Legend, at this time, is not aware of any net operating losses which are expected to be realised.

F-9

 
Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the Australian dollar. Expenses incurred in a currency other than the reporting currency, Australian dollars are translated at the date invoiced. Assets and liabilities are re-valued at the period end exchange rate where appropriate. Foreign currency exchange loss in 2007 amounted to A$120,378 (US$105,535), (2006 A$40,017).

Goods and Services Tax (“GST”)

Revenues, expenses and assets generated in Australia are subject to Australian GST which requires the supplier to add a 10% GST to predominately all expenses and the cost of assets and for the Company to include a 10% GST to the selling price of a product. Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of GST except where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognized as part of the cost of acquisition of the assets or as part of the expense item as applicable, and receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the balance sheet. Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority

Reclamation and Remediation Obligations (Asset Retirement Obligations)

Reclamation costs are allocated to expense over the life of the exploration activity and are periodically adjusted to reflect changes in the estimated present value resulting from the passage of time and revisions to the estimates of either the timing or amount of the reclamation and remediation costs. The asset retirement obligation is based on when the spending for an existing environmental disturbance will occur. The Company reviews, on at least an annual basis, the asset retirement obligation at each exploration site.

Future remediation costs are accrued based on management’s best estimate at the end of each period of the costs expected to be incurred. Such cost estimates include, where applicable, plugging of drillholes, removal of consumerables and ripping of drill pads and tracks. Changes in estimates are reflected in earnings in the period an estimate is revised.

Accounting for reclamation and remediation obligations requires management to make estimates unique to each exploration operation of the future costs the Company will incur to complete the reclamation and remediation work required to comply with existing laws and regulations. Actual costs incurred in future periods could differ from amounts estimated. Additionally, future changes to environmental laws and regulations could increase the extent of reclamation and remediation work required. Any such increases in future costs could materially impact the amounts charged to earnings for reclamation and remediation.

Financial Instruments

The Company’s cash, receivables, payables, short and long term borrowings represent financial instruments whose carrying amounts reasonably approximate their fair value.

Concentrations of credit risk

The Company monitors its position with, and the credit quality of, the financial institution it invests with. As of the balance sheet date, and periodically throughout the year, the Company has maintained balances in various operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits.

Convenience Translation to US$

F-10

 
The consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007 have been translated into United States dollars using the rate of exchange of the United States dollar at December 31, 2007 (A$1.00=US$0.8767). The translation was made solely for the convenience of readers in the United States.

Use of Estimates

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

Comparative Figures

Where necessary, comparative figures have been restated to be consistent with current year presentation.

Prior to July 31, 2006, the Company’s functional currency was the US dollar. However, as a result of the purchase of diamond mining tenements in Northern Australia in July 2006, the Company’s 2006 revenue and expenses are primarily denominated in Australian dollars (A$). Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (‘‘SFAS’’) No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation, states that the functional currency of an entity is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Accordingly the Company determined that from August 1, 2006 the functional currency of the Company is the Australian dollar. Assets, liabilities and equity were translated at the rate of exchange at  July 31, 2006.  Revenue and expenses were translated at actual rates. Translation gains and losses were included as part of accumulated other comprehensive gain.

AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS

In December 2004, the Company issued to Renika, a company associated with Mr J I Gutnick, 20,250,000 options to be converted into 20,250,000 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of 5 cents and a latest exercise date of December 2009 for services to be rendered to the Company. The Company undertook a Black and Scholes valuation of these options using a 2.22 cent exercise price, 2.22 cent market price, 5 year life, risk free interest rate of 5.155% and a volatility of 16.7%.  The Company valued the 20,250,000 options at A$160,672 (US$123,300) or A$0.0178 (US$0.0137) each. In September 2005, Renika exercised the 20,250,000 options using the cashless exercise feature and were issued 17,085,937 shares of Common Stock.

In December 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with AXIS Consultants Pty Ltd to provide geological, management and administration services to the Company.  AXIS is affiliated through common management.  The Company is one of four affiliated companies. Each of the companies has some common Directors, officers and shareholders.  In addition, each of the companies is substantially dependent upon AXIS for its senior management and certain mining and exploration staff. A number of arrangements and transactions have been entered into from time to time between such companies.  It has been the intention of the affiliated companies and respective Boards of Directors that each of such arrangements or transactions should accommodate the respective interest of the relevant affiliated companies in a manner which is fair to all parties and equitable to the shareholders of each. Currently, there are no material arrangements or planned transactions between the Company and any of the other affiliated companies other than AXIS.

AXIS is a company owned by its public companies (including Legend) and any profits generated by AXIS are returned to its shareholders in the form of dividends.

AXIS is paid by each company for the costs incurred by it in carrying out the administration function for each such company. Pursuant to the Service Agreement, AXIS performs such functions as payroll, maintaining employee records required by law and by usual accounting procedures, providing insurance, legal, human resources, company secretarial, land management, certain exploration and mining support, financial, accounting advice and services.  AXIS procures items of equipment necessary in the conduct of the business of the Company.  AXIS also provides for the Company various services, including but not limited to the making available of office supplies, office facilities and any other services as may be required from time to time by the Company as and when requested by the Company.

F-17

 
The Company is required to reimburse AXIS for any direct costs incurred by AXIS for the Company.  In addition, the Company is required to pay a proportion of AXIS’s overhead cost based on AXIS’s management estimate of our utilisation of the facilities and activities of AXIS plus a service fee of not more than 15% of the direct and overhead costs. Amounts invoiced by AXIS are required to be paid by us.  The Company is also not permitted to obtain from sources other than AXIS, and we are not permitted to perform or provide ourselves, the services contemplated by the Service Agreement, unless we first requests AXIS to provide the service and AXIS fails to provide the service within one month.

The Service Agreement may be terminated by AXIS or us upon 60 days prior notice.  If the Service Agreement is terminated by AXIS, the Company would be required to independently provide, or to seek an alternative source of providing, the services currently provided by AXIS.  There can be no assurance that the Company could independently provide or find a third party to provide these services on a cost-effective basis or that any transition from receiving services under the Service Agreement will not have a material adverse effect on us.  The Company’s inability to provide such services or to find a third party to provide such services may have a material adverse effect on our operations.

In accordance with the Service Agreement AXIS provides the Company with the services of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, geologists and clerical employees, as well as office facilities, equipment, administrative and clerical services. We pay AXIS for the actual costs of such facilities plus a maximum service fee of 15%.

During 2006, AXIS charged the Company A$203,664 in management fees and administration services, A$212,679 for exploration services provided to the Company, charged interest of A$13,498 on the outstanding balance, loaned us $4,500 and the Company repaid A$180,000. AXIS charged interest at a rate of between 9.35% and 10.10% for 2006. AXIS did not charge a service fee for 2006. The amount owed to AXIS at December 31, 2006 was A$312,253. During 2007, AXIS charged the Company A$1,126,311 in management fees and administration services including salaries incurred in relation to AXIS staff that provided services to the Company, A$834,552 for exploration services, A$151,800 for asset usage, A$14,683 in interest on the outstanding balance and the Company repaid A$2,432,687. AXIS charged interest at a rate of 10.10% until June 2007. The amount owed to AXIS at December 31, 2007 was $6,912 which is included in accounts payable.

Mr Joseph Gutnick, the President of the Company advanced the Company the initial deposit on opening a US Dollar bank account. In March, 2007, the balance of A$831, owing of the initial advance of A$1,303 (US$1,000) less expenses incurred of A$472, was repaid.

Effective as of March 3, 2006, Legend entered into a Contract for the Sale of Mining Tenements (“Contract”) with Astro Diamond Mines N.L. (“Astro”) an Australian company pursuant to which the Company acquired certain diamond mining tenements in Northern Australia from Astro. The consideration payable by Legend to Astro was A$1.5 million and Legend was also required to pay to Astro any costs incurred on the tenements after February 1, 2006.  Astro provided commercial warranties which are usual for a transaction of this nature in favour of Legend. Under Australian law, Astro was required to provide an independent experts report to shareholders for this transaction. In order to prepare the independent experts report, a mineral valuation was prepared on behalf of Astro which indicated that the preferred value for the tenements that are the subject of the transaction was A$1.5 million. This formed the basis of the consideration agreed by the parties. The President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. J. I. Gutnick, was Chairman and Managing Director of Astro and Dr DS Tyrwhitt, an independent Director of the Company is also a Director of Astro. The tenements are located in the Northern Territory of Australia and are prospective for all minerals. Astro incurred costs on the mining tenements from February 1, 2006 which at settlement Legend was required to pay. However, Astro had not quantified the amount at the date of settlement and it was only finally quantified in November 2006. At December 31, 2006, the Company owed Astro A$942,433 for these costs including interest of A$21,302. During 2007, the amount was repaid in full including interest charge for 2007 of A$16,774. Astro charged interest at a rate of 10.10%.

The consideration and all related acquisition costs, costs incurred by Astro since February 1, 2006 and exploration expenditure incurred by the Company is shown in the Statement of Operations as Exploration Expenditure.

INCOME TAXES

The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes". SFAS 109 requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

The Company has operations in both the USA and Australia and the Company is subject to taxation in both jurisdictions on the operations in each respective jurisdiction.

At December 31, 2007 and 2006 deferred taxes consisted of the following:

The valuation allowance offsets the net deferred tax asset for which there is no assurance of recovery. The valuation allowance will be evaluated at the end of each year, considering positive and negative evidence about whether the deferred tax asset will be realized.

At that time, the allowance will either be increased or reduced; reduction could result in the complete elimination of the allowance if positive evidence indicates that the value of the deferred tax assets is no longer impaired and the allowance is no longer required.

As a result of the ownership change that occurred in November 2004 (see note 1), Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limits the use of available operating loss carryforwards for losses incurred prior to the ownership change.  In addition, the Company will need to file a tax return for 2006 to establish the tax benefits of the net operating loss carry forwards. Future net operating losses will be fully available to offset future taxable income.  Total available net operating loss carryforwards, which are subject to limitations, amount to approximately A$15,273,850 at December 31, 2007 and expire in years 2022 through 2026

Exploration

The Company has to perform minimum exploration work and expend minimum amounts of money on its tenements. The overall expenditure requirement tends to be limited in the normal course of the Company’s tenement portfolio management through expenditure exemption approvals, and expenditure reductions through relinquishment of parts or the whole of tenements deemed non prospective. Should the company wish to preserve interests in its current tenements the amount which may be required to be expended is as follows:

RECLAMATION AND REHABILITATION

The Company’s exploration activities are subject to various federal and state laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations are continually changing and are generally becoming more restrictive. The Company conducts its operations so as to protect the environment and believes its operations are in compliance with applicable laws and regulations in all material respects. The Company has made, and expects to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations, but cannot predict the full amount of such future expenditures. Estimated future reclamation costs are based principally on legal and regulatory requirements.

The performance relates to the requirement that the Company adheres to the terms and conditions of its exploration licences, which inter alia requires site restoration. However, the Directors do not anticipate the Department of Business, Industry and Resource Development of Northern Territory will exercise these guarantees as the Company adheres to all conditions of its exploration licences.
