In connection with the AuroTellurio Option Agreement, the Company will pay an aggregate total of $290,000 in cash and 1,650,000 common shares.   Under the terms of the AuroTellurio Option Agreement, the Company is also committed to incur $3,000,000 in cumulative exploration expenditures on the Property over a four-year period at an investment rate of at least $750,000 per year. The Company will earn a 20% vested interest in the AuroTellurio Property in the first year of the AuroTellurio Option Agreement by investing $750,000 in an exploration program and up to an additional 60% interest in the Property, in blocks of 20% each, by investing an additional $750,000 in the exploration program in each of the following three years, or sooner, and meeting all of the other required terms of the AuroTellurio Option Agreement. Each 20% interest will vest earlier if each years cash and stock payments to Mexivada and $750,000 exploration expenditure investment are completed earlier than scheduled.   Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company will act as Operator, exclusively responsible, in consultation with Mexivada, for carrying out and administering exploration, development and mining work on the AuroTellurio Property. If costs of the exploration program exceed the agreed upon $3,000,000 investment, the Company will share additional costs with Mexivada on a proportionate share basis. Once the Company has earned its full 80% interest in the AuroTellurio Property, the Company will form a joint venture with Mexivada applicable to the further development and commercialization of the AuroTellurio Property.   The Company obtained a surface rights agreement, with the landowner on whose property the La Viuda Concessions are located, to conduct its mineral exploration program, effective June 17, 2011. The Company will pay the land owner $14,400 for each year in which the Company carries out exploration work on this land. The Company has completed the majority of Phase 1 of its 2011/2012 exploration program and has conducted mapping, trenching and sampling programs at the AuroTellurio Property, as well as gravity and magnetic geophysical surveys, including a helicopter-borne magnetics and radiometric survey, in preparation for an initial 3,000-meter drilling program that is planned for implementation in 2013.   As of July 31, 2013, the Company incurred approximately $1,500,000 since inception in its exploration and development expenditures, which are expensed as incurred. In addition to the Companys mineral exploration expenditures, Mexivada accepted certain other Company expenses towards its minimum requirement of $750,000 per year, such as a percentage of its accounting, legal and consulting fees, compensation of its officers and directors, and management support services, which were included as a component of general and administrative expenses in the Companys consolidated statements of expenses. Mexivada accepted approximately $1,089,407 of total expenses as of June 30, 2012 (the date in which the Companys expenses were reviewed by Mexivada), and confirmed that the amounts over $750,000 would be applied towards the second-year requirements. Mexivada also confirmed that it would grant the first 20% interest in the AutoTellurio project to the Company, after the Company made the $40,000 cash payment and issued 250,000 of its shares to Mexivada in connection with the AuroTellurio Option agreement. The $40,000 payment was made on August 10, 2012 and the 250,000 shares were issued to Mexivada on August 28, 2012.  falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaThe entire disclosure for commitments and contingencies.Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 210 -SubTopic 10 -Section S99 -Paragraph 1 -Subparagraph (SX 210.5-02.25) -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6877327&loc=d3e13212-122682 Reference 2: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 825 -SubTopic 20 -Section 50 -Paragraph 1 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6449706&loc=d3e16207-108621 Reference 3: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 460 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 8 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6398077&loc=d3e12565-110249 Reference 4: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 450 -SubTopic 20 -Section 50 -Paragraph 4 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=25496072&loc=d3e14435-108349 Reference 5: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 440 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 2 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6394976&loc=d3e25287-109308 false0COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIESfalse10.
