We are a Nevada corporation organized June 2, 2006.  Our original name was Celtic Capital, Inc.   On October 20, 2008, we changed our name to Entertainment Education Arts Inc.   On May 12, 2010, we changed our name to DNA Precious Metals, Inc. to more accurately reflect our new business plan. 

We are an exploration stage mining company whose business objective is to identify proven reserves of gold and silver, construct a mill, build out the Property’s infrastructure and place the mine into production.   The Montauban Mining Project is located in the Montauban and Chavigny townships near Grondines-West in Portneauf County, Quebec, Canada (“Montauban Mine Property” or “Property”).  The Montauban Mine Property does not contain any known ore reserves according to the definition of ore reserves under Industry Guide 7 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  Further work is required on the Property before a final determination as to the economic and legal feasibility of a mining venture can be made. There is no assurance that a commercially viable deposit will be proven through our exploration efforts.  The funds expended on our properties may not be successful in leading to the delineation of ore reserves that meet the criteria established under SEC guidelines.

GLOSSARY OF MINING TERMS
 
The following mining terms are used throughout this registration statement.
 
SEC Industry Guide 7 Definitions
 
exploration stage
An “exploration stage” prospect is one, which is not in either the development or production stage.
 
development stage
A “development stage” project is one which is undergoing preparation of an established
 
Commercially mineable deposit for its extraction but which is not yet in production. This stage occurs after completion of a feasibility study.
 
mineralized
material
The term “mineralized material” refers to material that is not included in the reserve as it does not meet all of the criteria for adequate demonstration for economic or legal extraction.
probable reserve
The term “probable reserve” refers to reserves for which quantity and grade and/or quality are computed from information similar to that used for proven (measured) reserves, but the sites for inspection, sampling, and measurement are farther apart or are otherwise less adequately spaced. The degree of assurance, although lower than that for proven reserves, is high enough to assume continuity between points of observation.
 
production stage
A “production stage” project is actively engaged in the process of extraction and beneficiation of mineral reserves to produce a marketable metal or mineral product.
 
proven reserve
The term “proven reserve” refers to reserves for which (a) quantity is computed from dimensions revealed in outcrops, trenches, workings or drill holes; grade and/or quality are computed from the results of detailed sampling and (b) the sites for inspection, sampling and measurement are spaced so closely and the geologic character is so well defined that size, shape, depth and mineral content of reserves are well-established.
 

 
2

 
 
reserve
The term “reserve” refers to that part of a mineral deposit, which could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination. Reserves must be supported by a feasibility study done to bankable standards that demonstrates the economic extraction. (“Bankable standards” implies that the confidence attached to the costs and achievements developed in the study is sufficient for the project to be eligible for external debt financing.) A reserve includes adjustments to the in-situ tons and grade to include diluting materials and allowances for losses that might occur when the material is mined.

THE PROPERTY
 
The Montauban Mine Property was acquired from Company 9215-8062 Quebec Inc. in exchange for the issuance of 5,000,000 shares of our common stock. The previous claim owner, Rocmec Mining Inc., exchanged its ten claims to Forage Magma Inc. for drilling equipment it needed at the time. Soon thereafter, Forage Magma Inc. sold the claims to 9215-8062 Quebec Inc.  The ten claims, which became fifteen (15) claims under new government regulations, were registered with the Quebec Government directly from Forage Magma Inc. to 9215-8062 Quebec Inc.
 
No royalty payments are due in connection with the acquisition of the mining claims.  We have paid the administrative fees with respect to the mining claims in Quebec through September 2015. 
 
We are also required to do exploratory mining work on the area of the claims.  The Quebec Government Ministry of Natural Resources (“MRN”) requires us to incur $20,500 in expenses directly related to the development of our mining claims.
 
We currently have a credit of approximately $57,000, which we can allocate amongst the fifteen (15) mining claims. The credit is attributable to work that we have already completed on several of the mining claims. Our mining claims are currently in good standing.
 
MINING HISTORY
 
The Montauban Mine Property under study is a tailings project (“Montauban Tailings”) which were produced by Anacon Lead Mines Ltd. between 1948 and 1955 and are situated within one kilometer northwest of the Montauban-les-Mines village. Reported production from this period amounts to over 87 million lbs. of zinc, 34 million lbs. of lead, close to 17,000 ounces of gold and over 2.6 million ounces of silver, extracted from a total of 1,375,371 tons of ore processed.
 
 
GEOLOGY
 
Regional geology is mostly comprised of three main rock groups: the basement crust, the supracrustal rocks and the intrusive rocks which were respectively identified as the Mekinac Group, the Montauban Group and the La Bostonnais Complex. The Montauban Deposit is a three-kilometer long mineralized formation with a geology that is fairly complex being located within an extensively folded sequence of amphibolite facies rocks that are sandwiched between intrusions of granodioritic to gabbroic composition. In the mine area, these metamorphic rocks strike roughly North-South and dip ±60° to the East and consist of migmatitic biotite gneiss, amphibolite, quartzofeldspathic biotite gneiss and quartzite.

DRILLING SUMMARY
 
 A systematical sampling program was developed to provide an accurate and homogeneous grid of data to estimate the Montauban Tailings potential. A 24-hole percussion drilling campaign was performed totaling 143.1 meters. This percussion drilling campaign was considered part of completing a previous 25-hole drilling campaign performed earlier. A total of 49 holes totaling 302.3 meters of drilling were completed.  No proven or indicated reserves were identified.
 
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION
 
The Montauban Mine Property is composed of 15 mining claims totaling 340.36 hectares located in the Montauban-les-Mines sector of the Notre-Dame-de-Montauban municipality, in the Montauban Township, Portneuf County, Province of Quebec. The Property is located 120 km east of Quebec City and 80 km north of Trois-Rivières. The Montauban Tailings are located one kilometer west of Montauban-les-Mines with multiple land accesses.

Figure II: Claim Reference Map
 
The mining residues on the Montauban Mine Property are considered by the Quebec Government Authorities as toxic wastes. There are no environmental liabilities as such to our Company. However, the Company will have to obtain the necessary permits from the Quebec Government Authorities to realize any further fieldwork having an impact on the environment, especially if re-mobilization of mining residues is contemplated.
 
On September 14, 2012, the Company received a Certificate of Authorization, from the Quebec Provincial Government, with respect to operating a gravity-metric circuit to process the mining residues, or tailings, located on the Montauban Mine Property. On March 13, 2014, the Company received another Certificate of Authorization, also from the Quebec Provincial Government, with respect to operating a cyanization circuit to process the mining residues located on the Montauban Mine Property. Previously, on February 28, 2014, the Company received approval, from the Quebec Provincial Government, for the Restoration Plan on the Montauban Mine Property which will be implemented subsequent to the Company’s processing of the mining residues (tailings) on the site (see Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, Subsequent Events). The two (2) Certificates of Authorization issued to the Company will allow for the construction and installation of equipment facilities to recuperate mica and precious metals (gold and silver) from the mining residues (tailings) located on the Montauban Mine Property.

ACCESS, CLIMATE, LOCAL INFRASTRUCTURES AND PHYSIOGRAPHY
 
The Montauban municipality is accessible by route 363 from highway 40 linking Quebec City (120 km to the east) and Trois-Rivières (80 km to the southeast). Access to railway is also available less than 10 km to the northeast in Notre-Dame-des-Anges. The Montauban Mine Property is located one kilometer west of Montauban-les-Mines with multiple land accesses.
 
From 1971 to 2000, Environment Canada Statistics reports daily average temperature of 18,8 °C in July and -14,2 °C for January. The extreme minimum temperature registered was of -45 °C (February 23, 1972) and the extreme maximum temperature reached 36,7 °C (August 1, 1975). The snow cover spreads from November to April, February being the month with the most important snow accumulation. The average yearly precipitation is 1138,8 mm, including rainfall (878,7 mm) and snowfall (260,2 mm). This data was collected at the Lac aux Sables station about 10 km to the northwest of Montauban.
 
Manpower, water and electric power are easily available within one-kilometer distance from the Montauban-les-Mines village. The region is rural, most of the farmers growing potatoes and corn. The equipment and personnel specialized in quarries are available within a 30 km radius from the Montauban Tailings in the surrounding municipalities (Notre-Dame-de-Montauban, St-Ubalde, Lac-aux-Sables, St-Casimir, St-Marc-des-Carrières and Ste-Thècle).
 
The area’s physiography is characterized by argilitic and sandy plateaus forming the foothills of the Laurentides. The Montauban Mine Property is limited to the North West by the Batiscan River, which is the main effluent in the area draining most of the Property towards the south to the St-Lawrence River. The topography consists of numerous small hills reaching an altitude of up to 220 m above the sea level from the valleys standing in average at 160 m elevation.
 
HISTORY
 
The mining history of the area began in 1910 with the discovery of the Pb-Zn Montauban Deposit by Mr. Elzéar Gauthier. The exploitation of the numerous base metal zones of the Montauban Mine Property were performed over the years by a series of successive owners: Mr. E. Gauthier (1910-1911), Mr. P. Tétreault (1911-1914), the Weedon Mining Company (1914-1915), the Zinc Company Ltd. (1915-1921), the Tetreault Estate (1921-1924), the British Metal Corporation (1925-1929), the Tetreault Estate (1929-1937), the Siscoe Metals Ltd./War Time Metals Corporation (1942-1944), Anacon Lead Mines Ltd. (1948-1956) and the Ghysleau Mining Corporation Ltd. (1957-1966). In 1966, most of the installations were decommissioned and the mining rights on the Anacon Property expired in 1972.
 
In 1974, Muscocho Exploration Ltd. acquired the mining rights and performed, over the following years, numerous exploration programs leading to the definition of sufficient gold resources to start commercial gold production in 1983. The mine did produce gold and silver up to 1990 when production was stopped due to ore exhaustion. Over its production period, Muscocho Exploration Ltd. processed 813,632 tonnes of ore producing 92,553 oz. of gold and 323,376 oz. of silver.
 
 In 1981, a systematic sampling program was performed by Boville Resources Ltd. to evaluate the quantity and quality of mine tailings at Montauban-les-Mines, with those tailings being from the first period of exploitation between 1914 and 1944 located south of the access road to Montauban-les-Mines (Depatie Report of 1982).

In 1999, Mirabel Resources Inc. performed a soil survey, a mag-VLF survey, trenching and 18 diamond drill holes mostly on the south zone. In 2000-2001, more trenching and 17 short diamond drill holes were done on the north zone.
 
In 2003, Mirabel Resources Inc. performed limited gravimetrical tests on 4 samples equally split between core samples from former diamond drill holes and tailing samples of the “old tailings” taken close by the access road to Montauban-les-Mines (Bernard Report of 2003). The results showed that the gravimetric method gave good recoveries for the tailing samples but nothing significant for the rock samples.
 
GEOLOGY
 
Regional geology consists of three main rock groups: the basement crust, the supracrustal rocks and the intrusive rocks which were respectively identified as the Mekinac Group, the Montauban Group and the La Bostonnais Complex
 
The Montauban Group is composed of Helikian supracrustal rocks. Those are various gneiss, quartzites, amphibolites, metabasalts and calcosilicated rocks reaching less than 2 kilometers in thickness. The Montauban deposit is located in the upper part of this unit.
 
The Montauban Group is bordered to the East by the La Bostonnais Complex, an intrusive rocks complex formed of basic, tonalitic and felsic igneous rocks. To the West, the Montauban Group is in contact with the Mekinac Group mostly composed of charnockitic migmatites.
 
The Montauban Deposit is a three-kilometer long mineralized formation with a geology that is fairly complex being located within an extensively folded sequence of amphibolite facies rocks that are sandwiched between intrusions of granodioritic to gabbroic composition. In the mine area, these metamorphic rocks strike roughly North-South and dip ±60° to the East and consist of migmatitic biotite gneiss, amphibolite, quartzofeldspathic biotite gneiss and quartzite.

 
9

 
 
 
Locally, the Montauban mineralization is contained within a thin complex package of biotite gneiss, nodular sillimanite gneiss, cordierite-antophyllite gneiss, calc-silicate rocks and rocks as meta-exhalites (tourmalinite and, along strike iron formation and carbonate rocks).
 
The Montauban deposit is distributed within numerous different zones along the strike length of the mineralization, from South to North we have the zones: South, Tétreault, A, C, North and Montauban. All zones are zinc bearing with the exception of the South and North zones, which are gold bearing.
 
 
10

 
 
MINERALIZATION
 
The base metal mineralization found in Montauban is massive to semi-massive sulphides, coarsely grained and mostly composed of sphalerite, galena, pyrrhotite, pyrite and chalcopyrite with minor quantities of cubanite, tetrahedrite and molybdenite.
 
The gold bearing mineralization is marginal and consists of disseminated pyrrhotite, galena, sphalerite and chalcopyrite with a large range of minor sulphides, sulphosalts and native minerals.
 
 
MONTAUBAN TAILINGS
 
The Montauban Mine Property covers a total area of 53,093 m² and amounts to a total volume of 250,750 m³. Since this volume is composed of tailings and that the water table is located within most of the blocks derived from each hole, the specific gravity of the material had to be evaluated to estimate the tonnage that is present on site. The estimation of the specific gravity was performed on the last drilling campaign 24 holes since no recovery evaluation is available from the first drilling campaign. Recovery of tailings in the sampling process averaged about 76% from the last percussion drilling campaign. Recoveries were ranging from 40 to 100 %, the lowest values being associated to the high water content of the deepest samples, the water table being at a depth of about 4,6 m (15 ft) within the pile of tailings. The averaged recovery was in the order of 81 % (68 samples) for the upper portion of the tailings and it dropped to below 64 % (27 samples) for the deeper portion (below the water table). The specific gravity is then estimated to be 1, 71 g/cm³.

Montauban Mine Property Hole Location Plan
 
The above graph shows the typical sections of the Montauban Mine Property where it is clear that the drainage is towards the North (to the right on section C-C). It is also clear that the thickness is variable but not so thick compared to the value that should be reached if the whole production was to be still onsite. About 1.2 million tons were produced in the past; such a tonnage should be averaging over 13 meters in the Tailings pile. It is clear on site that an important fraction of the tailings was washed away through drainage.

A total of 49 blocks were defined from the two previous percussion-drilling campaigns. The drilling pattern is essentially regular with a hole each and every 30-meter on average. The block volumes were calculated with the help of the computer-modeling program that defined one polygon for each and every hole drilled. The perimeter of the tailings was mapped with the help of a GPS device, this perimeter is the limit where the surface meshing of the holes’ collars meets the meshing of the bottom of the holes.  The block size is fairly regular averaging 8,740 tons, the smallest block being # 26 at 1 342 tons and the biggest one being # 21 at 24 334 tons.
 
To these metals one should add the mica content of the Montauban Mine Property, with the mica being mostly composed of the phlogopite type with some muscovite and minor amounts of biotite. The mica content is estimated to be at least 10 % of the total volume.  The mica is an industrial mineral that is valued according to the market conditions.
 
DRILLING RESULTS
 
The distribution of metals within the tailings is not homogeneous.  It was demonstrated with the 49 holes drilled on the Montauban Mine Property that recoveries dropped from 81 to less than 64 % below the 4,6 m (15 ft.) horizon, which is more or less the location of the water table within the Tailings. The impact is seen on metal content when gold is 67 % richer over this horizon, silver is up 73 %, Copper also up 63 %, and the winner being lead with a jump of 149 %. The only one being evenly distributed is zinc.

MILL CONSTRUCTION
 
We are constructing a mill to process mining residues. Our focus will be to produce gold and silver concentrate in addition to the mica product.  By extracting mica and producing the gold and silver concentrate, we will reduce the sulphide content of the tailings and thus lowering the environmental impact and cost for the project closure at the end of the operation.
 
Presently, there are no similar mills in the area surrounding our mining claims. The on-site mill production equipment to be constructed and installed will incorporate cyanization circuit and separation equipment consisting of spiral classifiers and Nelson concentrators in addition to other equipment. Test work to date has indicated that this configuration will effectively segregate the mica and produce a gold/silver concentrate.  There is a risk however that the plant will not effectively separate the components as planned. There is also a risk that the process being used is not ideal or optimal and that a different process may enhance or increase recovery of values. We intend to continue testing to improve the recuperation and extraction process. We have incorporated flexibility into our mill building design to allow for alternative/additional precious metal extraction processes to be installed.  Initial testing results indicate that recovery of mica, gold and silver is possible but economic feasibility has not been proven and there is the associated risk that the operation as planned will not be profitable either with respect to our own mining operations or refining tailings or other mining concentrates from other mining companies in close proximity to our operations.
 
Before gold and silver can be extracted from the tailings, the mica content must be removed. If we are able to produce a mica concentrate that corresponds to market standards, we will have an additional revenue stream with little incremental costs. There is a risk that there is no market for the mica product to be produced.
 
To keep expenditures as low as possible, we will use refurbished milling equipment when possible. Our larger expenses include the mill building, electrical distribution, pumps, pipe valves, spiral classifiers, Nelson concentrators, table separator, trommel, loader and a conveyor.
 
Special attention will be devoted to the potential of the surrounding area to produce more tailings, whether from the S-W extension of the actual deposit onto the adjoining property, or from the zone North of the access road (former exploitation) or again from the old tailings (on the adjoining property). All these tailings will have to be neutralized in order to permanently close the site. The environmental issues, the residues are considered toxic, related to these other properties rest with the Quebec Government Authorities and it is highly probable that they would be interested rectifying the environmental issues with the least amount of expense possible if we can prove that our project is viable. It should also be noted that the Quebec Government is reporting that more than 2 million tonnes of tailings are located in numerous piles in the surroundings around the Montauban-les-Mines village.
 
We anticipate that the mill will be able to process 1,000 tonnes per day. By constructing our own mill we will be able to reduce transportation costs.

PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT
 
The Company has completed construction of all access roads to and from the new milling facility.  The hydropower source to the milling facility totaling 1.3 kilometers has been completed.  The main power line consists of 2,500 amperes total output power and has been brought inside the newly erected 16,000 sq./ft. steel structure building.

We hired 9216-9499 Quebec Inc. as the electrical contractor.  In addition to the main power source line already completed, 9216-9499 Quebec Inc. has been hired to do all the electrical work inside the milling facility including the  wiring of the entire building, installation of heating and air conditioning system, lighting supply, ventilation system installation and complete electrical set-up of all milling equipment.  The contract price is $285,000CAD (approximately $279,300 U.S. based on an exchange ratio of $.98). The Contractor, 9216-9499 Quebec Inc., has received a retainer of $100,000 CAD ($98,000 U.S.) and has begun the preliminary work.  The work is expected to be completed in the summer of 2013.  At this time all the milling processing equipment is expected to be in place and ready for preliminary processing of the mining residues.

We hired Construction and Demolition Deschesnes to complete the civil construction of the steel structure building.  The total contract price is $470,000CAD (approximately $460,600 U.S.) of which $370,000 CAD (approximately $362,600 U.S.) has been paid to date.  The remaining balance will be paid on completion of the work.  The pouring of the cement interior floor of the steel structure building remains to be completed.  This work has been temporarily delayed due to cold weather.  

Also included in the price of the civil construction of the steel structure building was various equipment including lighting fixtures, 2,000 amperes electrical breaker system, heating system, air conditioning system, and back-up generator.  This equipment will be installed by the electrical contractor and is included in the contract price.

We have purchased the Humphey Spirals necessary for the production of the mica product.  In total, 128 spirals were purchased and are presently stored in three 40-foot containers.  This equipment is necessary as a first step of the recovery of the precious metals as it will remove all the mica material through gravity separation.  The successful extraction process of the gold and silver from the mining residues can only be obtained after the mica is removed from the mining residues.

POSSIBLE FURTHER ACTIVIITIES
 
We will also define further the local potential of other sources such as additional tailings or underground resources underneath the Montauban Mine Property or close-by in the Montauban area (see Subsequent Events).

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
On October 30, 2013 and November 27, 2013, the Company entered into binding agreements for the asset acquisitions of an undivided one hundred percent (100%) interest in certain mineral claims and mining assets located in the Province of Quebec’s Montauban and Chavigny townships near Grondines West, in the county of Portneuf, specifically Mining Lease BM 748 and Mining Concession CM 410. The purchase price was CDN$75,000 together with the issuance of 1,050,000 common stock shares. The common shares for the acquisition were valued at their fair market value on the day they were issued which totaled $496,860. The transaction has not closed as of the date of these consolidated financial statements and, as such, the amounts expended have been included as a prepaid deposit on the consolidated balance sheet as at December 31, 2013. The Company is awaiting confirmation of the contemplated transaction from a bankruptcy court in Montreal, Quebec overviewing the financial restructuring of the vendor. A bankruptcy court date to approve the contemplated transaction is expected to occur in April 2014.
 
On January 10, 2014, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement for an undivided one hundred percent (100%) interest in certain mineral claims located in the Province of Quebec’s Montauban and Chavigny townships near Grondines West, in the county of Portneuf, including claims, rights, concessions and leases. The purchase price was CDN$70,000, 1,000,000 common shares of the Company and a one percent (1%) net smelter return (“NSR”). The Company paid CDN$10,000 upon the signing of the asset purchase agreement with the cash balance due, along with the common shares, upon the closing of the asset purchase agreement and transfer of the mineral claims in the name of the Company. The transfer of the mineral claims was completed in February 2014 whereby the remaining cash balance due and the common shares were released to the vendor. The common shares for the acquisition will be valued at their fair market value on the day they were issued which totaled $340,000.
 
On February 19, 2014, Ronald K. Mann resigned as our Chief Executive Officer/President. In connection with his departure, Ronald K. Mann returned 1,500,000 common stock shares to us that he received as compensation.

On March 4, 2014, 50,000 stock options were exercised at $0.25 resulting in the issuance of 50,000 common shares and proceeds of $12,500. The $0.25 exercise price was in accordance with the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan.

On March 13, 2014, the Company received another Certificate of Authorization, from the Quebec Provincial Government, with respect to operating a cyanization circuit to process the mining residues located on the Montauban Mine Property. Previously, on February 28, 2014, the Company received approval, from the Quebec Provincial Government, for the Restoration Plan on the Montauban Mine Property which will be implemented subsequent to the Company’s processing of the mining residues (tailings) on the site.
 
On March 17, 2014, the Company increased the authorized amount of common stock from 150,000,000 common shares to 500,000,000 common shares. There were no changes to the authorized amount of preferred stock.

We are an exploration stage company and our business plan is unproven.  We have generated no revenues from our operations and incurred operating losses since our inception.  The Company as a going concern is in doubt.
 
We are an exploration stage company, our business plan is unproven, and we cannot assure you that we will ever achieve profitability or, if we achieve profitability, that it will be sustainable.  We are subject to all of the risks inherent in a new business. We have not generated any revenues to date.  At December 31, 2013 we had current assets in the amount of $1,374,306 and current liabilities totaling $186,729 and Long term liabilities totaled nil.  We had a working capital surplus of $1,187,577 and deficits accumulated in the exploration stage of $4,710,522 as of December 31, 2013.  We may require additional financing to become fully operational.  We currently have no commitment for additional funding. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure additional funding, or if available, available on terms acceptable to us.
 
We have no proven reserves.
 
The Property does not have known reserves of commercial gold or silver. Our long-term success will be related to the cost and success our exploration and mining programs.  Mining for gold and silver and base metals is a highly speculative business, involving a high degree of risk. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines.  There is no assurance that our exploration program will result in any discoveries of commercial quantities of gold or silver. There is also no assurance that, even if commercial quantities of gold or silver are discovered, a mine can be brought into commercial production. Production/discovery of gold and silver is dependent upon a number of factors, not the least of which is the technical skill of the exploration personnel involved. The commercial viability of a mine is also dependent upon a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, such as the worldwide economy, the price of gold and silver, government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production and environmental protection.
 
During our operations unexpected events may occur, including labor unrest, changes in government regulations, fires, floods, or earthquakes. It is not always possible to fully insure against such risks and we may decide not to take out insurance against such risks as a result of high premiums or for other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they may impede our exploration activities, raise costs and otherwise reduce the commercial viability of the Property.
 
We may not identify proven reserves and our estimates may be inaccurate.
 
There is no certainty that any expenditures made in our exploration program will result in discoveries of commercially recoverable quantities of gold, silver or any base metal.   Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially extractable deposits of gold or silver and no assurance can be given that any particular level of recovery will in fact be realized or that any identified leasehold interest will ever qualify as a commercially developed. Estimates of mineralization, reserves, deposits and production costs can also be affected by such factors as environmental regulations and requirements, weather, environmental factors, unforeseen technical difficulties, unusual or unexpected geological formations and work interruptions. Material changes in estimated reserves, exploration and mining costs may affect the economic viability of any project.
 
 
18

 

We will be required to locate mineral reserves for our long-term success.
 
Mines have limited lives based on proven and probable mineral reserves that are depleted in the course of production. To ensure continued viability we must offset depleted reserves by replacing and expanding our mineral reserves, through further exploration at the Property and/or the acquisition of new properties. Even if additional reserves are discovered, the process from exploration to production can take many years, during which the economic feasibility of production may change. Therefore, our ability to maintain or increase annual production of gold and other base or precious metals once mining activities commence, if at all, will be dependent almost entirely on our ability to bring new mines into production.
 
Mining is inherently dangerous and subject to conditions or events beyond our control, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
Mining involves various types of risks and hazards, including:
 
 
• 
environmental hazards;
 
• 
power outages;
 
• 
metallurgical and other processing problems;
 
• 
unusual or unexpected geological formations;
 
• 
flooding, fire, explosions, cave-ins, landslides and rock-bursts;
 
• 
inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment, or labor;
 
• 
metals losses; and
 
• 
periodic interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions.
 
These risks could result in damage to, or destruction of, mineral properties, production facilities or other properties, personal injury, environmental damage, delays in mining, increased production costs, monetary losses and possible legal liability.
 
Exploration for economic deposits of gold and silver is speculative.
 
Our business is very speculative since there is generally no way to recover any of the funds expended on exploration unless the existence of commercially exploitable reserves are established and the Company can exploit those reserves by either commencing mining operations, selling or leasing its interest in the property, or entering into a joint venture with a larger company that can further develop the property. Unless we can establish and exploit reserves before our funds are exhausted, we will have to discontinue operations.
 
Changes in the market price of gold, silver and other metals, which in the past has fluctuated widely, will affect the profitability of our operations and financial condition.
 
Our profitability and long-term viability depend, in large part, upon the market price of gold and other metals and minerals produced from our mineral properties. The market price of gold and other metals is volatile and is impacted by numerous factors beyond our control, including:
 
 
 
• 
expectations with respect to the rate of inflation;
 
• 
the relative strength of the U.S. dollar and certain other currencies;
 
 
19

 
 
  
• 
interest rates;
 
• 
global or regional political, financial, or economic conditions;
 
• 
supply and demand for jewelry and industrial products containing metals; and
 
• 
sales by central banks and other holders, speculators and producers of gold and other metals in response to any of the above factors.
 
A decrease in the market price of gold and other metals could affect the commercial viability of our Montauban Mine Property and our anticipated development and production assumptions. Lower gold prices could also adversely affect our ability to finance future development at the Montauban Mine Property, all of which would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that the market price of gold and other metals will remain at current levels or that such prices will improve.

 
Our estimates of resources are subject to uncertainty.
 
Estimates of resources are subject to considerable uncertainty. Such estimates are arrived at using standard acceptable geological techniques, and are based on the interpretations of geological data obtained from drill holes and other sampling techniques. Engineers use drilling results to derive estimates of cash operating costs based on anticipated tonnage and grades of ore to be mined and processed, the predicted configuration of the ore bodies, expected recovery rates of metal from ore, comparable facility and operating costs and other factors. Actual cash operating costs and economic returns on projects may differ significantly from the original estimates, primarily due to fluctuations in the current prices of metal commodities extracted from the deposits, changes in fuel costs, labor rates, changes in permit requirements, and unforeseen variations in the characteristics of the ore body. Due to the presence of these factors, there is no assurance that any geological reports will accurately reflect actual quantities of gold or silver that can be economically processed and mined by us.
 
The mineralization estimates are based on interpretation and assumptions and may yield less mineral production, if any, under actual conditions than is currently estimated.
 
We have relied on independent geologists to conduct drilling samples on the Property.  When making determinations whether to continue any project, we must rely upon such estimated calculations as to the mineral reserves and grades of mineralization on the Property.  Until ore is actually mined and processed, mineral reserves and grades of mineralization must be considered as estimates only.
 
These estimates are imprecise and depend upon geological interpretation and statistical inferences drawn from drilling and sampling analysis, which may prove to be unreliable. We cannot assure you that:

 
• 
these estimates will be accurate;
 
• 
reserve or other mineralization estimates will be accurate; or
 
• 
this mineralization can be mined or processed profitably.
 
 
Any material changes in mineral reserve estimates and grades of mineralization may affect the economic viability of placing a property into production and a property’s return on capital.  Because we have not started mining operations at the Property and have not commenced actual production, mineralization estimates may require adjustments or downward revisions based upon further drilling and/or actual production experience.
 
 
20

 
 
In addition, the grade of ore ultimately mined, if any, may differ from that indicated by our testing results to date.   There can be no assurance that minerals recovered in small-scale tests will be duplicated in large-scale tests under on-site conditions or in production scale.  Declines in market prices for gold and silver may render portions of our mineralization, reserve estimates uneconomic and result in reduced reported mineralization or adversely affect the commercial viability of the Property. Any material reductions in estimates of mineralization, or of our ability to extract this mineralization, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
 
Our exploration activities at the Montauban Mine Property may not be successful, which could lead us to abandon our plans to develop the property and our investments in exploration.
 
Our long-term success depends on our ability to identify proven reserves and mine the Property and any other properties we may acquire, if any.  Exploration activities are highly speculative in nature, which involves many risks and is frequently non-productive. These risks include unusual or unexpected geologic formations, and the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labor. The success of our exploration program is determined in part by the following factors:
 
 
• 
the identification of potential gold mineralization based on surficial analysis;
 
• 
availability of government-granted exploration permits;
 
• 
the quality of our management and our geological and technical expertise; and
 
• 
the capital available for exploration.
 
Substantial expenditures are required to establish proven and probable reserves through drilling and analysis, to develop metallurgical processes to extract metal, and to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at the Property. Whether a mineral deposit will be commercially viable depends on a number of factors, which include, without limitation, the particular attributes of the deposit, such as size, grade and proximity to infrastructure; metal prices, which fluctuate widely; and government regulations, including, without limitation, regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. We may invest significant capital and resources in exploration activities and abandon such investments if we are unable to identify commercially exploitable mineral reserves. We cannot assure you that we will discover mineralized resources in sufficient quantities on the Property to commence commercial development.
 
Actual capital costs, operating costs, production and economic returns may differ significantly from those we have anticipated and there is no assurance that our development activities will result in profitable mining operations.
 
We plan to estimate operating and capital costs for the Property based on information available to us and that we believe to be accurate. However, costs for labor, regulatory compliance, energy, mine and plant equipment and materials needed for mine development and construction may fluctuate significantly.  In light of these factors, actual costs related to our proposed mine development and construction may exceed any estimates we may make. We do not have an operating history upon which we can base estimates of future operating costs related to the Property.  We intend to rely upon our analysis of the future economic feasibility of the project and any estimates that may be contained therein. Studies derive estimates of cash operating costs based upon, among other things:
 
 
21

 
 
 
anticipated tonnage, grades and metallurgical characteristics of the ore to be mined and processed;
 
anticipated recovery rates of gold and other metals from the ore;
 
 
cash operating costs of comparable facilities and equipment; and
 
 
anticipated climatic conditions.
 
Capital and operating costs, production and economic returns, and other estimates may differ significantly from actual costs, and there can be no assurance that our actual capital and operating costs will not be higher than anticipated or disclosed.
 
In addition, any calculations of cash costs and cash cost per ounce may differ from similarly titled measures of other companies and are not intended to be an indicator of projected operating profit.
 
There can be no assurance that we will be successful in establishing mining operations or profitably exploiting mineral deposits.
 
We are subject to all of the risks associated with establishing new mining operations and business enterprises including:
 
 
• 
the timing and cost, which can be considerable, of the construction of mining and processing facilities;
 
• 
the ability to find sufficient gold reserves to support a mining operation;
 
• 
the availability and costs of skilled labor and mining equipment;
 
• 
the availability and cost of appropriate smelting and/or refining arrangements;
 
• 
compliance with environmental and other governmental approval and permit requirements;
 
• 
the availability of funds to finance construction and development activities;
 
• 
potential opposition from non-governmental organizations, environmental groups, local groups or local inhabitants which may delay or prevent development activities;   and
 
• 
potential increases in construction and operating costs due to changes in the cost of fuel, power, materials, supplies, and other costs.
 
 
It is common in new mining operations to experience unexpected problems and delays during construction, development and mine start-up; delays in the commencement of mineral production often occur. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our activities will result in profitable mining operations or that we will successfully establish mining operations or profitably extract gold or silver at the Property.
 
 
22

 
 
Historical production at the Property may not be indicative of the potential for future development.
 
We currently have no commercial production at the Property and have never recorded any revenues from gold or silver production. You should not rely on the fact that there were historical mining operations at the Property as an indication that we will ever have future successful commercial operations at the Property. We expect to continue to incur losses unless and until such time, if ever, as the Property enters into commercial production and generates sufficient revenues to fund our continuing operations. The development of new mining operations requires the commitment of substantial resources for operating expenses and capital expenditures, which may increase in subsequent years as needed consultants, personnel and equipment associated with advancing exploration, development and commercial production are added. The amount and timing of expenditures will depend on the progress of ongoing exploration and development, the results of consultants’ analysis and recommendations, the rate at which operating losses are incurred, the execution of any joint venture agreements with strategic partners and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
 
We have no history as a Company engaged in the mining business.
 
We have no history of earnings or cash flow from mining activities.  If we identify proven reserves and  are able to proceed to production, commercial viability will be affected by factors that are beyond our control such as the particular attributes of the deposit, the fluctuation in the prices of gold and silver, the cost of construction and operating a mining operation,  the availability of economic sources for energy, government regulations including regulations relating to prices, royalties, restrictions on production, quotas on exploration  as well as the costs of protection of the environment.
 
We face many operating hazards.
 
The development and operation of a mining property involves many risks, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. These risks include, among other things, ground fall, flooding, environmental hazards and the discharge of toxic chemicals, explosions and other accidents. Such occurrences may result in work stoppages, delays in production, increased production costs, damage to or destruction of mines and other producing facilities, injury or loss of life, damage to property, environmental damage and possible legal liability for such damages.
 
A shortage of critical equipment, supplies and resources could adversely affect our operations.
 
We are dependent on equipment, supplies and resources to carry out our mining operations, including input commodities, drilling equipment and skilled labor. A shortage in the market for any of these factors could cause unanticipated cost increases and delays in delivery times, which could in turn adversely impact production schedules and costs.
 
Operations at the Property will require a significant amount of water. Successful mining and processing will require careful control of project water usage and efficient reclamation of project solutions in the process.
 
Current global financial conditions have made access to financing more difficult.
 
Since the fall of 2008 there has been severe deterioration in global credit and equity markets. This has resulted in the need for government intervention in major banks, financial institutions and insurers, and has also led to greater volatility, increased credit losses and tighter credit conditions. These unprecedented disruptions in the credit and financial markets have had a significant adverse impact on a number of financial institutions and have limited access to capital and credit for many companies. These disruptions could, among other things, make it more difficult for us to obtain, or increase our cost of obtaining, capital and financing for our operations.
 
 
23

 
 
We do not insure against all risks to which we may be subject in our planned operations.
 
Any insurance that we secure will in all likelihood not cover all of the potential risks associated with a mining company’s operations, and we may be unable to maintain insurance to cover these risks at economically feasible premiums. Insurance coverage may not be available or may not be adequate to cover any resulting liability. Moreover, we expect that insurance against certain hazards as a result of exploration and production may be prohibitively expensive to obtain for a company of our size and financial means.
 
We might also become subject to liability for pollution or other hazards which may not be insured against or which we may elect not to insure against because of premium costs or other reasons. Insurance against certain environmental risks, including potential liability for pollution or other hazards as a result of the disposal of waste products occurring from production, is not generally available to us or to other companies within the mining industry.
 
Losses from events that are not covered by our insurance policies may cause us to incur significant costs that could negatively affect our financial condition and ability to fund our activities on the Property. A significant loss could force us to terminate our operations.
 
Drilling operations are hazardous, raise environmental concerns and raise insurance risks.
 
We intend to conduct our business in a way that safeguards public health and the environment and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Environmental hazards may exist on properties in which we hold an interest which are unknown to us and may have been caused by prior owners. Changes to drilling and mining laws and regulations could require additional capital expenditures and increase operating and/or reclamation costs. Although we are unable to predict what additional legislation, if any, might be proposed or enacted, additional regulatory requirements could render certain operations uneconomic.
 
Local infrastructure may impact our exploration activities and results of operations.
 
Our activities depend, to one degree or another, on adequate infrastructure. Reliable roads, bridges and power and water supplies are important determinants that affect capital and operating costs. Unusual or infrequent weather phenomenon, sabotage or government or other interference in the maintenance of such infrastructure could adversely affect our activities.
 
Compliance with SEC reporting requirements can be costly. 
 
We do not have any employees to segregate responsibilities and may be unable to afford increasing our staff or engaging outside consultants or professionals to overcome our lack of employees.  During the course of our operations, we may identify other deficiencies that we may not be able to remedy in time to satisfy the requirements imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with that Section 404.  If we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.  Moreover, effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to help prevent financial fraud.  If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information.
 
 
24

 

We are subject to significant governmental regulations.
 
The Montauban Mine Property is located in Quebec, Canada and is subject to extensive federal, provincial, and local laws and regulations governing various matters, including:
 
  
• 
environmental protection;
 
• 
management and use of toxic substances and explosives;
 
• 
management of natural resources;
 
• 
labor standards and occupational health and safety, including mine safety; and
 
• 
historic and cultural preservation.
 
 
Noncompliance may result in civil or criminal fines or penalties or enforcement actions, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities enjoining or curtailing operations or requiring corrective measures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions, any of which could result in us incurring significant expenditures. We may also be required to compensate private parties suffering loss or damage by reason of a breach of such laws, regulations or permitting requirements. It is also possible that future laws and regulations will be more stringent which could cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions on our operations and delays in the development of the Property.
 
Our activities are subject to environmental laws and regulations that may increase our costs of doing business and restrict our operations.
 
All of our exploration and potential development and production activities are in the province of Quebec, Canada and are subject to regulation by governmental agencies under various environmental laws. These laws address, among other things, emissions into the air, discharges into water, management of waste, management of hazardous substances, protection of natural resources, antiquities and endangered species and reclamation of lands disturbed by mining operations.
 
Additionally, our operations will result in emissions of greenhouse gases, which may be subject to increased regulation in the future. In general, environmental legislation is evolving and the trend has been towards stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and increasing responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. Compliance with environmental laws and regulations requires significant capital outlays, and future changes in these laws and regulations may cause material changes or delays in our financial position, operations and future activities.  More stringent regulation may cause us to re-evaluate our activities.
 
 
25

 
 
Land reclamation requirements for the Property may be burdensome.
 
Land reclamation requirements are generally imposed on mineral exploration companies (as well as companies with mining operations) in order to minimize long-term effects of land disturbance.
 
Reclamation may include requirements to:
 
 
• 
control dispersion of potentially deleterious effluents; and
 
• 
reasonably re-establish pre-disturbance landforms and vegetation.
 
In order to carry out reclamation obligations we will have to allocate a portion of our financial resources that might otherwise be spent on further exploration and development programs.  Unanticipated reclamation work will adversely impact our operations.
 
We may not be able to comply with permitting requirements.
 
We have obtained required permitting to commence production activities. Maintaining the permits may require us to comply with more stringent government regulation or new regulatory controls may be instituted which will require us to implement more stringent controls and procedures over our production activities.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with more stringent government regulations or that additional costs will be required to remain compliant.  This may result in production delays and impact our budgeted resources.
 
We may experience difficulty attracting and retaining qualified management.
 
We are dependent on the services of our executive officers.  We will have to hire other highly skilled and experienced consultants.  Due to our relatively small size, the loss of these persons or our inability to attract and retain highly skilled employees may have a material adverse effect on our business or future operations. We do not maintain key-man life insurance on any of our officers or directors.
 
We compete with larger, better-capitalized competitors in the mining industry.
 
The mining industry is intensely competitive in all of its phases, including financing, technical resources, personnel and property acquisition. It requires significant capital, technical resources, personnel and operational experience to effectively compete in the mining industry. Larger companies with significant resources have an advantage over us.  Competition for resources at all levels is very intense, particularly affecting the availability of manpower, drill rigs, mining equipment and production equipment. As a result, we may be unable to maintain or acquire financing, personnel or technical resources.
 
There are differences in U.S. and Canadian practices for reporting reserves and resources.
 
Since our operations are in Canada, resource estimates disseminated outside the United States are not directly comparable to those made in filings subject to SEC reporting and disclosure requirements. These practices are different from the practices used to report reserve and resource estimates in reports and other materials filed with the SEC. It is Canadian practice to report measured, indicated and inferred resources, which are generally not permitted in filings with the SEC. In the United States, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated resources will ever be converted into reserves. Further, “inferred resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically.

Our directors and officers may have conflicts of interest as a result of their relationships with other companies.
 
Our directors and officers may serve as officers or directors for other companies engaged in natural resource exploration and development. The directors and officers owe us a fiduciary obligation.  We have not yet established a policy to deal with potential conflicts of interest.
 
Legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, may make it difficult for us to retain or attract officers and directors.
 
We may be unable to attract and retain qualified officers, directors and members of board committees required to provide for our effective management as a result of rules and regulations that govern publicly held companies. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act has resulted in a series of rules and regulations that increase responsibilities and liabilities of directors and executive officers. We are a small company with a limited operating history and no revenues.  This may influence the decisions of potential candidates we may recruit as directors or officers. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these recent changes may deter qualified individuals from accepting these roles.
 
Risks Related To Our Securities
 
As an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, we are permitted to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements.   
 
We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. As a result, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:
 
Reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
 
 
·
Comply with all requirements that may be adopted by the Public Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and financial statements;
 
 
·
Submit certain execute compensation matters to shareholder advisory votes, such as “say-on-pay” and “say on frequency;”
 
 
·
Disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance.    
 
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.
 
 
27

 
 
We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.
 
 
Our financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with new or revised accounting standards.
 
We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period that Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides an emerging growth company, as provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards.   Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.
 
Our status as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act OF 2012 may make it more difficult to raise capital when we need to do it.
 
Because of the exemptions from various reporting requirements provided to us as an “emerging growth company” and because we will have an extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards, we may be less attractive to investors and it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital as and when we need it.  Investors may be unable to compare our business with other companies in our industry if they believe that our financial accounting is not as transparent as other companies in our industry.  If we are unable to raise additional capital as and when we need it, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.
 
We will incur increased costs and demands upon management as a result of complying with the laws and regulations that affect public companies, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, business and prospects.
 
As a public company and particularly after we cease to be an “emerging growth company,” we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company, including costs associated with public company reporting and corporate governance requirements. These requirements include compliance with Section 404 and other provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as rules implemented by the SEC and NASDAQ. In addition, our management team will also have to adapt to the requirements of being a public company. We expect that compliance with these rules and regulations will substantially increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly.
 
The increased costs associated with operating as a public company will decrease our net income or increase our net loss, and may require us to reduce costs in other areas of our business or increase the prices of our products or services. Additionally, if these requirements divert our management’s attention from other business concerns, they could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, business and prospects.
 
 
28

 
 
However, for as long as we remain an “emerging growth company” as defined in the  JOBS Act, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We may take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an “emerging growth company.”
 
 
We will not be required to comply with certain provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for as long as we remain an “emerging growth company.”
 
Our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting until the later of the year following our first annual report required to be filed with the SEC, or the date we are no longer an “emerging growth company.” At such time, our independent registered public accounting firm may issue a report that is adverse in the event it is not satisfied with the level at which our controls are documented, designed or operating.
 
Reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies may make our common stock less attractive to investors.
 
As an  “emerging growth company,” we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.
 
In the event that your investment in our shares is for the purpose of deriving dividend income or in expectation of an increase in market price of our shares from the declaration and payment of dividends, your investment will be compromised because we do not intend to pay dividends.
 
We have never paid a dividend to our shareholders.  We intend to retain cash for the continued development of our business. As a result, your return on investment will be solely determined by your ability to sell your shares in a secondary market.
 
 
29

 
 
The market valuation of our business may fluctuate due to factors beyond our control and the value of your investment may fluctuate correspondingly.
 
The market valuation of developmental stage companies, such as us, frequently fluctuate due to factors unrelated to the past or present operating performance of such companies.  Our market valuation may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:
 
changes in securities analysts’ estimates of our financial performance, although there are
             currently no analysts covering our stock;
 
 
·
fluctuations in stock market prices and volumes, particularly among securities of emerging growth companies;
 
 
·
changes in market valuations of similar companies;

 
·
announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, new technologies, acquisitions,  commercial relationships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
 
 
·
variations in our quarterly operating results;
 
 
·
fluctuations in related commodities prices; and
 
 
·
additions or departures of key personnel.
 
Currently there is no established public market for our common stock, and there can be no assurances that any established public market will ever develop or that our common stock will be quoted for trading.
 
There is currently no established public market whatsoever for our securities.  A market maker has submitted an application with FINRA on our behalf so as to be able to quote the shares of our common stock on the OTCBB maintained by FINRA.    The Company has been issued a symbol “DNAP”.   There can be no assurances as to whether;

 
·
any market will develop;

 
·
the prices at which our common stock will trade; or

 
·
the extent to which investor interest in us will lead to the development of an active, liquid trading markets generally result in lower price   volatility  and more efficient execution of buy and sell orders for investors.
 

In addition, our common stock is unlikely to be followed by any market analysts, and there may be few institutions acting as market makers for our common stock.  Either of these factors could adversely affect the liquidity and trading price of our common stock.  Until our common stock is fully distributed and an orderly market develops in our common stock, if ever, the price at which it trades is likely to fluctuate significantly.  Prices for our common stock will be determined in the marketplace and may be influenced by many factors, including the depth and liquidity of the market for shares of our common stock, developments affecting our business, including the impact of the factors referred to elsewhere in these Risk Factors, investor perception of exploratory stage mining companies and general economic and market conditions.

Because the SEC imposes additional sales practice requirements on brokers who deal in penny stocks, some brokers may be unwilling to trade them.  This means that you may have difficulty reselling your shares.

Our common stock is classified as a penny stock and will be covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  These rules impose additional sales practice requirements on brokers/dealers who sell our securities in this offering or in the aftermarket.  For sales of our securities, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination and receive from you a written agreement prior to making a sale for you.  Because of the imposition of the foregoing additional sales practices, it is possible that brokers will not want to make a market in our shares.  This could prevent you from reselling your shares and may cause the price of the shares to decline.
 
 
FINRA sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.
 
FINRA has adopted rules that require broker-dealer to have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information.  Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers.  FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity and liquidity of our common stock.  Further, many brokers charge higher transactional fees for penny stock transactions.  As a result, fewer broker-dealers may be willing to make a market in our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock.
 
 
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
This Annual Report contains “forward-looking statements”. Such forward-looking statements concern our anticipated results and developments in our operations in future periods, planned exploration and development of its properties, plans related to its business and other matters that may occur in the future. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of our management.
 
Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, “plans”, “estimates” or “intends”, or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved) are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual events or results to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements
 
 
31

 

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, believed, estimated or expected. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. We disclaim any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events, except as required by law.

Our corporate headquarters are located at 9125 rue Pascal Gagnon, Suite 204 Saint Leonard, Quebec Canada HIP IZ4 where we rent approximately 1100 square feet of office space at a cost of $1,407 per month.  The corporate headquarters are sufficient to meet our administrative operations.  Our operational headquarters are located at the Property.


None.


Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”) each operator of a mine is required to include certain mine safety results in its periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Since our mining operations are located in Quebec, Canada, we are not subject to the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977.

Nonetheless, it should be noted that we are subject to certain mining rules and regulations as promulgated by the Quebec government and other municipalities and we have never been cited for any mining violations.

E.   Sale of Unregistered Securities.

We have issued shares of our common stock for services rendered, capital formation and corporate acquisitions.  We relied on the exemptive provisions of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.  We have also offered shares pursuant to the exemptive provisions of Regulation S.

In May 2010, we issued to 28 purchasers residing in Canada 18,000,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $.003 per share for a total of $54,000.  Those shares were issued in pursuant to Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

33

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. As a result, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:
 
 
● 
have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

 
comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis);

 
submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory votes, such as “say-on-pay” and “say-on-frequency;” and

 
disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation.
 
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.

We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, our financial statement, and certain other financial information included elsewhere in this prospectus.
 
We are an exploratory stage-mining corporation. We have not commenced mining operations or generated revenues from our business operations. If we need additional cash and cannot raise it we may not be able to fully implement our business plan.     If we raise less than the maximum amount and we need more money we will have to revert to obtaining additional money from another source.  We currently do not have a commitment for additional funding.
 
 
36

 
 
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
 
There is no historical mining information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance.  We are in start-up operations and have not generated revenues.  We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations.  Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a mining property,   including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services and products.
 
Our specific goal is to profitably mine the Montauban Mine Property.  We have secured the necessary permitting, purchased required equipment, hired engineers and contractors, built out the infrastructure and are currently completing construction on the mill.  Once the mill is completed, we intend to begin extracting of gold, silver and other base metals in an economically efficient manner.
 
 
 
Results of Operations for Fiscal Years Ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and from June 2, 2006 (“Inception”) through December 31, 2013.
 
Since our inception, we have not generated any revenues.  Operating expenses for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 totaled $2,922,167 and $898,459, respectively.  In 2013, we had a mining tax credit of $111,095.   In 2012, we had a mining tax credit of $108,284.   Our net loss for 2013 and 2012 was $2,937,475 and $797,126, respectively. Our net loss since Inception was $4,710,522.
 
Our largest expense in 2013, other than shares and options issued as compensation, was salaries and related expenses totaling $491,710 as compared to $204,473 in 2012.  Salaries and related expenses since inception totaled $1,093,571.  Engineering costs in 2013 totaled $88,247 and in 2012 totaled $417,274.  Since inception, engineering costs expenses totaled $872,614.  Professional fees, primarily legal and accounting fees, totaled $388,810 in 2013 as compared to $169,634 in 2012, and $725,548 since inception.  General and administrative expenses totaled $721,454 in 2013 as compared to $89,200 in 2012, and $833,388 since inception. Rental costs in 2013 totaled $40,385 and in 2012 totaled $17,186, and $76,074 since inception. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Assets and Liabilities.
 
 To date, our operations have been primarily funded through debt and equity financing.   We secured approximately $4,038,874 in equity financing and $491,650 in debt financing.   

At December 31, 2013, we had cash totaling $535,934, prepaid expenses and deposits of $802,945 and sales tax receivable of $35,427. Total current assets were $1,374,306.  Our fixed assets totaled $1,276,304, deferred financing fees totaled $25,081and our mining rights totaled $15,000.  Total assets were $2,690,691. This compares favorably to our assets at December 31, 2012 when we had cash totaling $598,938, prepaid expenses of $4,422 and sales tax receivable of $62,436.   Fixed assets totaled $1,318,343 and our mining rights totaled $15,000. Total assets were $1,999,139.  The primary reason for the significant increase in our assets is attributable to our capital raises whereby we utilized the funds secured from the sale of our securities to invest in our mining project and acquisition of mining assets.
 
 
37

 

Current liabilities at December 31, 2013 totaled $186,729.  Current liabilities at December 31, 2012 totaled $373,220, which included a liability of $232,000 for stock to be issued. We had no long-term liabilities at December 31, 2013. Our sole long-term liability at December 31, 2012 was attributable to a promissory note which totaled $502,550.

We have a working capital surplus at December 31, 2013 of $1,187,577 as compared to a surplus at December 31, 2012 of $292,576. We have invested most of our funds to complete the infrastructure, purchase equipment and commence construction of the processing mill and acquire mining properties. Management believes that there will be sufficient liquidity to continue operations for the next twelve months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
    
 We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements.  We do not anticipate entering into any off-balance sheet arrangements during the next 12 months.



Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The Company holds cash balances in both U.S. and Canadian dollars.  We transact most of our business in US and Canadian dollars.  Some of our expenses, including labor and operating supplies are denominated in Canadian dollars.  As a result, currency exchange fluctuations may impact our operating costs.  We do not manage our foreign currency exchange rate risk through the use of financial or derivative instruments, forward contracts or hedging activities.

In general, the strengthening of the U.S. dollar will positively impact our expenses transacted in Canadian dollars. Conversely, any weakening of the U.S dollar will increase our expenses transacted in Canadian Dollars.  We do not believe that any weakening of the U.S. dollar as compared to the Canadian dollar will have an adverse material effect on our operations.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s investment policy for its cash and cash equivalents is focused on the preservation of capital and supporting the liquidity requirements of the Company.  The Company’s interest earned on its cash balances is impacted on the fluctuations of U.S. and Canadian interest rates.  We do not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest rate changes.  We do not believe that interest rate fluctuations will have any effect on our operations


Our financial statements have been examined to the extent indicated in their reports by KBL, LLP.  and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and pursuant to Regulation S-K as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and are included herein, on Page F-1 hereof in response to Part F/S of this Form 10-K.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, with assistance from other members of our management, have reviewed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2013 based on their evaluation, have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the year ended December 31, 2013 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, we assessed, as of December 31, 2013, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. This assessment was based on criteria established in the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.  Based on our assessment using those criteria, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013.
 
Internal control over financial reporting is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and includes those policies and procedures that:
 
 
39

 
 
 
·
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

 
·
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and directors; and

 
·
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 
·
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the internal control system are met.  Because of the inherent limitations of any internal control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected.
 

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Evaluation of Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
 
There was no change in the internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

For companies registered pursuant to section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.  When the Company becomes subject to section 12(g) of the Securities Act, it is the intent of all officers, directors and 5% shareholders to comply with this requirement.


Overview of Compensation Program
 
Our compensation philosophy is based on our belief that our compensation programs should: be aligned with stockholders’ interests and business objectives; reward performance; and be externally competitive and internally equitable. We seek to achieve three objectives, which serve as guidelines in making compensation decisions:
 
 
·
Providing a total compensation package which is competitive and therefore enables us to attract and retain, high-caliber executive personnel;

 
·
Integrating compensation programs with our short-term and long-term strategic plan and business objectives; and

 
·
Encouraging achievement of business objectives and enhancement of stockholder value by providing executive management long-term incentive through equity ownership.
 
 
We may compensate our Officers with cash compensation, common stock and common stock options. We have not established any quantifiable criteria with respect to the level of compensation, stock grants or options. Rather, the Board of Directors will evaluate cash, stock grants and stock options paid by similar mining companies.  We do not have a Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
 
 
45

 
 
With respect to stock grants and options which may be issued to the Company’s Officers and Directors, the Board will consider an overall compensation package that includes both cash and stock based compensation which would be in line with the Company’s overall operations and compensation levels paid to similar mining companies.  On August 12, 2013, the Company approved and enacted the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Under the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan, the Company may grant options or share awards to its full-time employees, executive officers, directors and consultants up to a maximum of 8,000,000 common shares. Under the Plan, the exercise price of each option has been established at $0.25. Stock options vest as stipulated in the stock option agreement and their maximum term is 8 years.
 
 
The following table sets forth the compensation paid by us to our Officers for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011.  This information includes the dollar value of base salaries, bonus awards and number of stock options granted, and certain other compensation, if any.  The compensation discussed addresses all compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid or named executive officers.

Indemnification
 
Under our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company, we may indemnify an Officer or Director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a lawsuit, because of his position, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest.  We may advance expenses incurred in defending a proceeding.  To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in a proceeding as to which he is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney’s fees.  With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order.  The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.
 
Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be permitted to directors or officers under Nevada law, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Directors of
DNA Precious Metals, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of DNA Precious Metals, Inc. (the "Company") (an exploration stage company) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and period June 2, 2006 (Inception) through December 31, 2013. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DNA Precious Metals, Inc. (an exploration stage company) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and period June 2, 2006 (Inception) through December 31, 2013 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company is in process of exploration for metals in Canada, and continues to attempt to increase their activity through acquisitions of mining rights. Due to the ongoing exploration, and lack of positive cash flow, the Company has incurred substantial losses. The lack of profitable operations raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in this regard are described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1-
ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
On June 2, 2006, Celtic Capital, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada. On October 20, 2008, Celtic Capital, Inc. changed its name to Entertainment Educational Arts Inc. On May 12, 2010, the Company changed its name to DNA Precious Metals, Inc. (the “Company”). On October 29, 2010, the Company formed DNA Canada Inc., a Canadian (Province of Quebec) incorporated company, as a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company will operate all of its exploration operations through this Canadian entity.
 
The Company is an exploration stage company that is in the business of identifying mineral claim rights in Canada and the United States. The Company has conducted minimal business to date.
 
The Company’s primary goal is to identify and acquire premium gold (Au) and silver (Ag) properties to create an international mining company. The mineralized properties that the Company will focus on acquiring, will have easy accessibility, transportation infrastructures in place on the property and most importantly, will have the potential to be brought into production quickly.
 
The Company acquired certain mining claims on June 9, 2011 located in the Montauban and Chavigny townships near Grondines-West in the Portneuf County of Quebec, Canada (“Montauban Mine Property” or “Property”).  The transaction is shown as an asset, Mineral rights, on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013 and 2012.
 
On October 30, 2013 and November 27, 2013, the Company entered into binding agreements for the asset acquisitions of an undivided one hundred percent (100%) interest in certain mineral claims and mining assets located in the Province of Quebec’s Montauban and Chavigny townships near Grondines West, in the county of Portneuf, specifically Mining Lease BM 748 and Mining Concession Miniere CM 410. The purchase price was CDN$75,000 together with the issuance of 1,050,000 common shares of the Company. The common shares for the acquisition were valued at their fair market value on the day they were issued which totaled $496,860.  In connection with the asset purchase, the Company also issued 40,000 shares of common stock to a former supplier of the vendor for mining related information of the assets purchased valued at $20,000 along with cash consideration of CDN$20,000.  The transaction has not closed as of the date of these consolidated financial statements and, as such, the amounts expended have been included as a prepaid deposit on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013. The Company is awaiting confirmation of the contemplated transaction from a bankruptcy court in Montreal, Quebec overviewing the financial restructuring of the vendor. A bankruptcy court date to approve the contemplated transaction is expected to occur in April  2014 (see Note 11, Subsequent Events).
 
Going Concern
 
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated revenues since inception and has generated losses totaling $2,937,475 and $797,126 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and losses of $4,710,522 since the Company’s inception on June 2, 2006.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 AND 2012
 
The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon, amongst other things, continued financial support from its shareholders, attaining a satisfactory revenue level, attainment of profitable operations and the generation of cash from operations and the ability to secure new financing arrangements and new capital to carry out its business plan.  These matters are dependent on a number of items outside of the Company’s control and there exists material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company can give no assurance that it will achieve profitability or be capable of sustaining profitable operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of the carrying amounts of assets or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company raised $523,564 (CDN$552,000) from the sale of 2,208,000 shares of common stock in August, September and October 2013 and $472,217 (CDN$500,000) from flow-through financing through the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of common stock and 500,000 warrants in December 2013. From September 2012 to January 2013, the Company raised $2,357,000 of capital through the subscription of 9,428,000 shares in an S-1 registration statement. The Company also raised, from June to December 2011, $670,000 of capital through the subscription of 3,350,000 private placement shares. The funds raised from the private and public offerings were used to further the Company’s business plan while the most recent public raise was used for the construction of a processing mill and build-out of the infrastructure.
 
Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – Overall (“ASC 105-10”). ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registrants.
 
All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Positions or Emerging Issue Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance throughout this document have been updated for the Codification.

NOTE 2-
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Exploration Stage Company

The Company is an exploration stage company as defined in ASC 915. The Company has made significant capital investments on a processing mill and related infrastructure pertaining to a mining site described earlier.  The construction of the processing mill structure was commenced in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 and completed in the first quarter of fiscal 2013. Also, significant infrastructure work related to the processing mill has been completed.
 
Presently, the infrastructure construction includes the foundation, a 16,000 sq./ft. steel structure building and water and power supply installations.  The Company has completed all the access infrastructural work to the future site where the milling facilities will be located.
 
On September 14, 2012, the Company received a Certificate of Authorization, from the Quebec Provincial Government, with respect to operating a gravitimetric circuit to process the mining residues, or tailings, located on the Montauban Mine Property. On March 13, 2014, the Company received another Certificate of Authorization, also from the Quebec Provincial Government, with respect to operating a cyanization circuit to process the mining residues located on the Montauban Mine Property. Previously, on February 28, 2014, the Company received approval, from the Quebec Provincial Government, for the Restoration Plan on the Montauban Mine Property which will be implemented subsequent to the Company’s processing of the mining residues (tailings) on the site (see Note 11, Subsequent Events).   The two (2) Certificates of Authorization issued to the Company will allow for the construction and installation of equipment facilities to recuperate mica (muscovite) and precious metals (gold and silver) from the mining residues (tailings) located on the Montauban Mine Property.
 
Consequently, the primary objective will be to recuperate the mica and precious metals (gold and silver) from the mining residues. The recuperation of the precious metals from the mining residues will be less expensive than traditional mining operations primarily because the mining residues have already been crushed and grinded by prior mining companies.
 
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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates include but are not limited to stock-based compensation and tax valuation allowances.

Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, DNA Canada Inc. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated on consolidation.
 
Currency Translation
 
The Company’s functional is the Canadian dollar and its reporting currency is the United States dollar. Transactions denominated in the functional currency are converted into United States dollars using the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction or the average rate for the period in the case of revenue and expense transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities are re-valued into the reporting currency at each balance sheet date using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, with any resulting exchange gains or losses being credited or charged to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Non-monetary assets and liabilities are recorded in the reporting currency using the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction and are not revalued for subsequent changes in exchange rates.
 
Stock Options-Based Compensation
 
The Company estimates the fair value of stock options-based payment awards made to officers and directors related to the Company’s stock incentive plan, on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense ratably over the requisite service periods. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the stock-based compensation that it grants to officers and directors. The Company is required to make certain assumptions in connection with this determination, the most important of which involves the calculation of volatility with respect to the price of its common stock. The computation of volatility is intended to produce a volatility value that is representative of the Company’s expectations about the future volatility of the price of its common stock over an expected term. The Company used an estimate of its future share price to determine volatility and cannot predict how the price of its common shares of common stock will react on the open market in the future. Shares of the Company commenced trading on August 22, 2013. As a result, the volatility value that the Company calculated may differ from the future volatility of the price of its shares of common stock.
 
Upon the exercise of stock options, any consideration received and the amounts previously recorded under stock-based compensation are credited to share capital. Upon the issuance of shares resulting from share awards, amounts previously recorded under stock options-based compensation are credited to share capital.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)
 
The Company adopted ASC 220-10, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” (formerly SFAS No. 130). ASC 220-10 requires the reporting of comprehensive income in addition to net income from operations.
 
Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents.
 
The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances at one major Canadian bank.
 
Exploration Tax Credits
 
The Company is entitled to certain exploration tax credits for the exploration expenditures they have incurred from the Canadian federal government and the government of the Province of Quebec. Some of the tax credits available from the Province of Quebec are in the form of cash. Qualifying expenditures include exploration costs and salaries to conduct the activities of the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company received $108,284 in tax credits for qualifying expenditures. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company received $111,095 in tax credits for qualifying expenditures. The Company’s policy is to record the tax credits when received rather than when applied for. Research tax credits must be reviewed and approved by the appropriate tax authorities when applied and it is possible that the amounts granted may differ from the amounts applied for.
 
Fixed Assets
 
Fixed assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation will be provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets when those assets are placed into service. Costs of maintenance and repairs will be charged to expense as incurred.
 
Trade and Other Payables
 
Trade and other payables and accrued liabilities are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the normal course of business. Trade and other payables and accrued liabilities are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets
 
Although the Company does not have any long-lived assets at this point, for any long-lived assets acquired in the future, the Company will review their recoverability on a periodic basis whenever events and changes in circumstances have occurred which may indicate a possible impairment. The assessment for potential impairment will be based primarily on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of its long-lived assets from expected future cash flows from its operations on an undiscounted basis. If such assets are determined to be impaired, the impairment recognized is the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fixed assets to be disposed of by sale will be carried at the lower of the then current carrying value or fair value less estimated costs to sell.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company does not utilize derivative instruments.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as part of the provision for income taxes in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that they will be able to be utilized against future taxable income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only when the Company has a right and intention to set off current tax assets and liabilities from the same taxation authority. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be realized.
 
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes”  (“ASC 740-10”) which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.
 
The Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10 related to Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Position. When tax returns are filed, there may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.

Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.
 
The Company has adopted ASC 740-10-25, “Definition of Settlement”, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purposes of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion and examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities generally for three years after they were filed.

Revenue Recognition
 
The Company will generate revenues from the sale of precious metals mined from its Property. Revenue from the sale of precious metals, namely gold, silver and mica, will be recognized upon delivery of the precious metals, collection is probable, the fee is fixed or determinable and the Company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the precious metals supplied. Significant risks and rewards are generally considered to be transferred to the buyer when the customer has taken undisputed delivery of the precious metals.
 
Loss Per Share of Common Stock

Basic net loss per share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
 
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing adjusted net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the effects of all dilutive common share issuances. Dilutive common share issuances shall be deemed to have been converted into ordinary shares at the beginning of the period.
 
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the Company shall assume the exercise of dilutive stock options and warrants. The assumed proceeds from these instruments shall be regarded as having been received from the issue of common shares at the average market price of common shares during the period. Dilutive common share issuances are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reports a loss because to do so would be anti-dilutive for the periods presented.
 
The following is a reconciliation of the computation for basic and diluted EPS:

Recent Issued Accounting Standards
 
During July 2013, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-11, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (“ASU 2013-11”)”.  The objective of ASU 2013-11 is to clarify the financial presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists.  The assessment of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the unrecognized tax benefit and deferred tax asset that exist at the reporting date and should be made presuming disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. ASU 2013-11 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013.  The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2013-11 will have a significant impact on the presentation of its financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, on testing for indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. The new guidance provides an entity to simplify the testing for a drop in value of intangible assets such as trademarks, patents, and distribution rights. The amended standard reduces the cost of accounting for indefinite-lived intangible assets, especially in cases where the likelihood of impairment is low. The changes permit businesses and other organizations to first use subjective criteria to determine if an intangible asset has lost value. The amendments to U.S. GAAP will be effective for fiscal years starting after September 15, 2012. The Company’s adoption of this accounting guidance does not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
 
There were other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
 
The Company adopted certain provisions of ASC Topic 820. ASC 820 defines fair value, provides a consistent framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and expands fair value financial statement disclosure requirements. ASC 820’s valuation techniques are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. ASC 820 classifies these inputs into the following hierarchy:
 
Level 1 inputs: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
 
Level 2 inputs: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
 
Level 3 inputs: Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.
 
The following table represents the fair value hierarchy for those financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2013:

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
On October 30, 2013 and November 27, 2013, the Company entered into binding agreements for the asset acquisitions of an undivided one hundred percent (100%) interest in certain mineral claims and mining assets located in the Province of Quebec’s Montauban and Chavigny townships near Grondines West, in the county of Portneuf, specifically Mining Lease BM 748 and Mining Concession CM 410. The purchase price was CDN$75,000 together with the issuance of 1,050,000 common shares of the Company. The common shares for the acquisition were valued at their fair market value on the day they were issued which totaled $496,860. The transaction has not closed as of the date of these consolidated financial statements and, as such, the amounts expended have been included as a prepaid deposit on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013. The Company is awaiting confirmation of the contemplated transaction from a bankruptcy court in Montreal, Quebec overviewing the financial restructuring of the vendor. A bankruptcy court date to approve the contemplated transaction is expected to occur in April 2014.
 
On January 10, 2014, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement for an undivided one hundred percent (100%) interest in certain mineral claims located in the Province of Quebec’s Montauban and Chavigny townships near Grondines West, in the county of Portneuf, including claims, rights, concessions and leases. The purchase price was CDN$70,000, 1,000,000 common shares of the Company and a one percent (1%) net smelter return (“NSR”). The Company paid CDN$10,000 upon the signing of the asset purchase agreement with the cash balance due, along with the common shares, upon the closing of the asset purchase agreement and transfer of the mineral claims in the name of the Company. The transfer of the mineral claims was completed in February 2014 whereby the remaining cash balance due and the common shares were released to the vendor. The common shares for the acquisition will be valued at their fair market value on the day they were issued which totaled $340,000.

On February 19, 2014, Ronald K. Mann, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, resigned his position. In connection with the departure, 1,500,000 common shares that he received as compensation were returned to the Company.
