The federal deferred income tax benefit is realized in the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, BH Minerals USA, Inc., which is not consolidated with the federal income taxes of the remainder of the Company since BH Minerals USA, Inc. is wholly owned by the Company’s wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Staccato Gold Resources Ltd.

 

For the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011 the Company anticipates an effective income tax rate of 0% in the United States and 0% in Canada due to the availability of accumulated net operating losses to offset any U.S. and Canadian income taxes.
