Item 8.01- Other Events

On February 7, 2008, First Quantum Ventures, Inc. (the “Company”) approved and submitted with NASDAQ the necessary paperwork to implement the reverse split of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company at a ratio of one (1) share for each one hundred (100) shares of common stock issued and outstanding, with the number of authorized shares to remain the same and unchanged as a result of the reverse split.    All fractional shares that would result from the reverse split will be rounded up to the next whole share.  A copy of the corporate resolution to carry out this reverse split was filed with the original  Form 8K submitted on February 26, 2008 .
