Lithium Corporation
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2012
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Lithium Corporation (formerly Utalk Communications Inc.) was incorporated on
January 30, 2007 under the laws of Nevada. On September 30, 2009, Utalk
Communications Inc. changed its name to Lithium Corporation.
Nevada Lithium Corporation was incorporated on March 16, 2009 under the laws of
Nevada under the name Lithium Corporation. On September 10, 2009, the Company
amended its articles of incorporation to change its name to Nevada Lithium
Corporation. By agreement dated October 09, 2009 Nevada Lithium Corporation and
Lithium Corporation amalgamated as Lithium Corporation. Lithium Corporation is
engaged in the acquisition and development of certain lithium interests in the
state of Nevada, and is currently in the exploration stage. These consolidated
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.
Exploration Stage Company
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles related to accounting and reporting by
exploration stage companies. An exploration stage company is one in which
planned principal operations have not commenced or if its operations have
commenced, there has been no significant revenues there from.
Accounting Basis
The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting and accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP" accounting). The
Company has adopted a December 31 fiscal year end.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash includes cash on account, demand deposits, and short-term instruments with
maturities of three months or less.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which
at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company continually monitors
its banking relationships and consequently has not experienced any losses in
such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit
risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company is in the exploration stage and has yet to realize revenues from
operations. Once the Company has commenced operations, it will recognize
revenues when delivery of goods or completion of services has occurred provided
there is persuasive evidence of an agreement, acceptance has been approved by
its customers, the fee is fixed or determinable based on the completion of
stated terms and conditions, and collection of any related receivable is
probable.

Lithium Corporation
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2012
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly-owned
subsidiary. All material inter-company transactions have been eliminated.
Loss per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the year. The computation of diluted earnings per share assumes the conversion,
exercise or contingent issuance of securities only when such conversion,
exercise or issuance would have a dilutive effect on earnings per share. The
dilutive effect of convertible securities is reflected in diluted earnings per
share by application of the "if converted" method. In the periods in which a
loss is incurred, the effect of potential issuances of shares under options and
warrants would be anti-dilutive, and therefore basic and diluted losses per
share are the same.
Computer Equipment
Computer equipment is stated on the basis of historical cost less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets which has been estimated as 2 years.
Impairment losses are recorded on computer equipment used in operations when
indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated
to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount.
Income Taxes
The asset and liability approach is used to account for income taxes by
recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax
consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax
basis of assets and liabilities.
Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable,
prepaid expenses, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Unless otherwise
noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant
interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
Because of the short maturity and capacity of prompt liquidation of such assets
and liabilities, the fair value of these financial instruments approximate their
carrying values, unless otherwise noted.
Mineral Properties
Costs of exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties
are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized
including licenses and lease payments. Although the Company has taken steps to
verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures
do not guarantee the Company's title. Such properties may be subject to prior
agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.
Impairment losses are recorded on mineral properties used in operations when
indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated
to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount.
Impairment of $134,213 was recorded in 2011 relating to the abandonment of some
mineral claims.

Lithium Corporation
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2012
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
Lithium's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting
principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates that the Company
will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will realize its
assets and liquidate its liabilities in the normal course of business. However,
Lithium has no current source of revenue, recurring losses and a deficit
accumulated during the exploration stage of $1,850,838 as of June 30, 2012.
These factors, among others, raise, substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. Lithium's management plans on raising
cash from public or private debt or equity financing, on an as-needed basis and
in the longer term, revenues from the acquisition, exploration and development
of mineral interests, if found. Lithium's ability to continue as a going concern
is dependent on these additional cash financings and, ultimately, upon achieving
profitable operations through the development of mineral interests. The
successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time. The
accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 3 - PREPAID EXPENSES

NOTE 5 - MINERAL PROPERTIES
Fish Lake Property
The Company has purchased a 100% interest in the Fish Lake property by making
staged payments of $350,000 worth of common stock. Title to the pertinent claims
was transferred to the Company through quit claim deed dated June 1st 2011, and
this quitclaim was recorded at the county level on August 3rd 2011, and at the
BLM on August 4th 2011. Quarterly stock disbursements were made on the following
schedule:
1st Disbursement: Within 10 days of signing agreement (paid)
2nd Disbursement: within 10 days of June 30, 2009 (paid)
3rd Disbursement: within 10 days of December 30, 2009 (paid)
4th Disbursement: within 10 days of March 31, 2010 (paid)
5th Disbursement: within 10 days of June 30, 2010 (paid)

As at June 30, 2012, the Company has recorded $414,168 in acquisition costs
related to the Fish Lake Property.
Staked Properties
The Company has staked claims with various registries as summarized below:
Name Claims (Area in Acres) Amount
---- ---------------------- ------
Salt Wells 156 (12,480) $74,452
Other $17,896
The Company performs an impairment test on an annual basis to determine whether
a write-down is necessary with respect to the properties. The Company believes
no circumstances have occurred and no evidence has been uncovered that warrant a
write-down of the mineral properties other than those abandoned by management
and thus included in write-down of mineral properties. No impairment allowance
was recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.
NOTE 6 - CAPITAL STOCK
The Company is authorized to issue 3,000,000,000 shares of it $0.001 par value
common stock. On September 30, 2009, the Company effected a 60-for-1 forward
stock split of its $0.001 par value common stock.
All share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the
splits discussed above.
Common Stock
On January 30, 2007, the Company issued 240,000,000 shares of its common stock
to founders for proceeds of $20,000.

Stock Based Compensation
The Company granted 500,000 options at an exercise price of $0.28 to consultants
in exchange for various professional services. The Company granted another
800,000 options to consultants for management services at exercise price of
$0.24. These options were vested on the date of grant. During the year ended
December 31, 2011, 350,000 stock options were exercised for proceeds totalling
$84,000. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value
stock options granted. The Black- Scholes model was developed for use in
estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions
and are fully transferable. The model requires management to make estimates,
which are subjective and may not be representative of actual results.
Assumptions used to determine the fair value of the stock based compensation is
as follows:

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
As of June 30, 2012, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of
approximately $1,850,838 that may be available to reduce future years' taxable
income in varying amounts through 2031. Future tax benefits which may arise as a
result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements,
as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the
Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating
to these tax loss carry-forwards.

differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere
in this quarterly report.
Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are
prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles.
In this quarterly report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are
expressed in United States dollars and all references to "common shares" refer
to the common shares in our capital stock.
As used in this quarterly report, the terms "we," "us," "our" and "our company"
mean Lithium Corporation, unless otherwise indicated and the term "Nevada
Lithium" means our wholly owned subsidiary, Nevada Lithium Corporation, a Nevada
corporation.
GENERAL OVERVIEW
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 30, 2007
under the name "Utalk Communications Inc." At inception, we were a development
stage corporation engaged in the business of developing and marketing a
call-back service using a call-back platform. Because we were not successful in
implementing our business plan, we considered various alternatives to ensure the
viability and solvency of our company.
On August 31, 2009, we entered into a letter of intent with Nevada Lithium
Corporation regarding a business combination which may be effected in one of
several different ways, including an asset acquisition, merger of our company
and Nevada Lithium Corporation, or a share exchange whereby we would purchase
the shares of Nevada Lithium Corporation from its shareholders in exchange for
restricted shares of our common stock.
Effective September 30, 2009, we affected a 1 old for 60 new forward stock split
of our issued and outstanding common stock. As a result, our authorized capital
increased from 50,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 to
3,000,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 and our issued
and outstanding shares increased from 4,470,000 shares of common stock to
268,200,000 shares of common stock.
15
Also effective September 30, 2009, we changed our name from "Utalk
Communications, Inc." to "Lithium Corporation", by way of a merger with our
wholly owned subsidiary Lithium Corporation, which was formed solely for the
change of name. The name change and forward stock split became effective with
the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board at the opening for trading on October 1,
2009 under the stock symbol "LTUM". Our CUSIP number is 536804 107.
On October 9, 2009, we entered into a share exchange agreement with Nevada
Lithium Corporation, a Nevada corporation, and the shareholders of Nevada
Lithium Corporation. The closing of the transactions contemplated in the share
exchange agreement and the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding
common stock in the capital of Nevada Lithium Corporation occurred on October
19, 2009. In accordance with the closing of the share exchange agreement, we
issued 12,350,000 shares of our common stock to the former shareholders of
Nevada Lithium Corporation in exchange for the acquisition, by our company, of
all of the 12,350,000 issued and outstanding shares of Nevada Lithium
Corporation. Also, pursuant to the terms of the share exchange agreement, a
director of our company cancelled 220,000,000 restricted shares of our common
stock.
OUR CURRENT BUSINESS
We are an exploration stage mining company engaged in the identification,
acquisition and exploration of metals and minerals with a focus on lithium
mineralization on properties located in Nevada.
Our current operational focus is to conduct exploration activities on our
properties in Nevada, known as the Fish Lake Valley property, the Salt Wells
property, and the San Emidio prospect.
FISH LAKE VALLEY PROPERTY
Fish Lake Valley is a lithium enriched playa (also known as a salar, or salt
pan), which is located in west central Nevada in northern Esmeralda county, and
the property is roughly centered at 417050E 4195350N (NAD 27 CONUS). We
currently hold ninety two - eighty (80) acre Association Placer claims that
cover approximately 7,360 acres. Lithium-enriched Tertiary-era Fish Lake
formation Rhyolitic tuffs or ash flow tuffs have accumulated in a valley or
basinal environment. Over time interstitial formational waters in contact with
these tuffs, have become enriched in lithium, which could possibly be amenable
to the extraction by evaporative methods.
The property was originally held under mining lease purchase agreement dated
June 1, 2009 between Nevada Lithium Corporation, and Nevada Alaska Mining Co.
Inc., Robert Craig, Barbara Craig, and Elizabeth Dickman. Nevada Lithium had
agreed to issue the vendors $350,000 worth of common stock of our company in
eight regular disbursements. To date all disbursements have been made of stock
worth a total of $350,000, and claim ownership has been transferred to Lithium
Corporation.
The geological setting at Fish Lake Valley is highly analogous to the salars of
Chile, Bolivia and Peru, and more importantly Clayton Valley, where Chemetall
has its Silver Peak lithium-brine operation. Access is excellent in Fish Lake
Valley with all weather gravel roads leading to the property from State Highways
264, and 265, and maintained gravel roads ring the playa. Power is available
approximately 10 miles from the property, and the village of Dyer is
approximately 12 miles to the south, while the town of Tonopah Nevada is
approximately 50 miles to the East.
Our company has completed a number of geochemical and geophysical studies on the
property, and conducted a short drill program on the periphery of the playa in
the fall of 2010. Near-surface brine sampling during the spring of 2011 has
outlined a boron/lithium/potassium anomaly that is roughly 1.3 x 2 miles long,
which has a smaller higher grade core where lithium mineralization ranges from
100 to 150 mg/L, with boron ranging from 1,500 to 2,670 mg/L, and potassium from
5,400 to 8,400 mg/L. Our company had planned to drill this property during the
summer/fall of 2011, but it had been considerably wetter than normal there, and
the opportunity to safely drill this property did not present itself in 2011.
Our company plans to drill this property as soon as feasible in 2012.
16
SALT WELLS
The Salt Wells property was acquired through staking a 12,320 acre parcel that
covers the Eightmile Basin, a playa, which lies approximately 15 miles to the
southeast of Fallon, the county seat of Churchill County, Nevada. In 2011 the
property was reduced through allowing a number of non-prospective, non-strategic
claims to lapse. Currently our company holds 6,400 acres here.
Exploratory sediment sampling of the playa was conducted in the summer and fall
of 2009 and 83% of the samples taken within the claim area have returned
anomalous values in lithium, with the highest value being in the order of 750
ppm Li. In 2010 continued geochemical work, and geophysical studies were
performed on the property, and a brine sampling program is currently underway
there. Brine sampling in the winter and spring of 2011 delineated an anomaly
here which is roughly three quarters of a mile wide by one and a half miles
long, with values up to 36.5 mg/L lithium. This work was followed up by a
gravity geophysical survey during the summer of 2011, which indicated that the
brine anomaly in this property is proximal to a basin bounding structure.
The strong lithium values coupled with proximity to a geothermal field and
quaternary faulting possibly indicate that conditions may be favorable for the
formation of a subsurface lithium brine reservoir similar to that currently
being exploited at Silver Peak in Esmeralda County, Nevada.
After two failed attempts to drill the property due to wet conditions in spring
and summer 2011 our company finally succeeded in completing a 31 site - 3,437
foot direct push drill program in September, 2011. In all, 46 samples were taken
at varying depths down to 155 feet subsurface. All samples were submitted to
Inspectorate Laboratory in Reno Nevada, with check samples analyzed by ALS
Laboratories also of Reno. Strong brines were discovered during the drilling
here, however lithium values were generally lower than anticipated, and we are
presently considering various options for ongoing exploration here in 2012.
SAN EMIDIO
The San Emidio property was acquired through the staking of claims in September
2011. The twenty - eighty (80) acre Association Placer claims staked here cover
an area of approximately 1,600 acres. The property is approximately 65 miles
north-northeast of Reno, Nevada, and has excellent infrastructure.
Lithium Corporation developed this prospect during 2009, and 2010 through
surface sampling, and the early reconnaissance sampling determined that
anomalous values for lithium occur in the playa sediments over a good portion of
the playa. This sampling appeared to indicate that the most prospective areas on
the playa may be on the newly staked block proximal to the southern margin of
the basin, where it is possible the structures that are responsible for the
geothermal system here may also have influenced lithium deposition in sediments.
In spring 2011, our company conducted near-surface brine sampling and a high
resolution gravity geophysical survey in summer/fall 2011. The company permitted
a 7 hole drilling program with the Bureau of Land Management in late fall 2011,
and a direct push drill program was commenced in early February 2012. Drilling
here delineated a narrow elongate shallow brine reservoir which is greater than
2.5 miles length, and which is adjacent to a basinal feature outlined by the
earlier gravity survey. Two values of over 20 milligrams/liter lithium were
obtained from two holes located centrally in this brine anomaly. Our company is
currently considering various options for ongoing exploration here in 2012.
OTHER
Our company allowed all 62 Association Placer Claims held at our Cortez Prospect
in Lander County, Nevada to lapse in September of 2011 as, although drilling
there in the summer of 2011 determined that a considerable volume of brine can
be found locally, lithium contents were low and our company concluded that it
would perhaps be more prudent to focus resources elsewhere.
17
Lithium Corporation is currently developing plans for exploring other locations
which are felt to be prospective for hosting lithium mineralization, as well as
evaluating opportunities brought to the company by third parties.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2012 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
2011
We had a net loss of $82,854 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012,
which was $39,472 less than the net loss of $122,326 for the three month period
ended June 30, 2011. The significant change in our results over the two periods
is primarily the result of decreased exploration activity.
The following table summarizes key items of comparison and their related
increase (decrease) for the three month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:

earning revenues in the upcoming quarter.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our balance sheet as of June 30, 2012, reflects current assets of $863,744. We
had cash in the amount of $808,795 and a working capital in the amount of
$854,694 as of June 30, 2012. We have sufficient working capital to enable us to

OPERATING ACTIVITIES
Net cash flow used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30,
2012 was $136,235, an decrease of $82,501 from the $218,736 net cash outflow
during the six months ended June 30, 2011.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES
The primary driver of cash used in investing activities was capital spending in
the maintenance of our company's properties.
Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2012 was
$Nil, which was a decreasefrom the $13,843 of cash used investing activities
during the six months ended June 30, 2011. This decrease in the cash used in
investing activities was primarily due to a less aggressive exploration program
during the period.
FINANCING ACTIVITIES
Cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2012 was
$25,000 as compared to the $84,000 in cash provided by financing activities
during the six months ended June 30, 2011.
We estimate that we will spend approximately $200,000 on general and
administrative expenses, $250,000 on exploration and $50,000 on travel over the
next 12 months.
Specifically, we estimate our operating expenses and working capital
requirements for the next 12 months to be as follows:
ESTIMATED NET EXPENDITURES DURING THE NEXT TWELVE MONTHS
General, Administrative Expenses $200,000
Exploration Expenses 250,000
Travel 50,000
--------
TOTAL $500,000
========
We have suffered recurring losses from operations. The continuation of our
company is dependent upon our company attaining and maintaining profitable
operations and raising additional capital as needed.
The continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further financing,
a successful program of exploration and/or development, and, finally, achieving
a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities
by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our
current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be
available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.
There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required
for our continued operations. As noted herein, we are pursuing various financing
alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements. There
can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when
needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable
terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis,
we will be unable to conduct our operations as planned, and we will not be able
to meet our other obligations as they become due. In such event, we will be
forced to scale down or perhaps even cease our operations.
Cash on hand as of June 30, 2012 was $808,795.
20
We are not aware of any known trends, demands, commitments, events or
uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in our
liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.
FUTURE FINANCINGS
We anticipate continuing to rely on equity sales of our common stock in order to
continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will
result in dilution to our existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we
will achieve any additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt
or other financing to fund our planned business activities.
We presently do not have any arrangements for additional financing for the
expansion of our exploration operations, and no potential lines of credit or
sources of financing are currently available for the purpose of proceeding with
our plan of operations.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to
have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, and capital
expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles related to accounting and reporting by
exploration stage companies. An exploration stage company is one in which
planned principal operations have not commenced or if its operations have
commenced, there has been no significant revenues there from.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and
should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes
thereto contained in our company's registration statement filed with the SEC on
Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for the financial statements to be not
misleading have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
full year. Our company has adopted a December 31 fiscal year end.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash includes cash on account, demand deposits, and short-term instruments with
maturities of three months or less.
CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
Our company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which
at times may exceed federally insured limits. Our company continually monitors
its banking relationships and consequently has not experienced any losses in
such accounts. Our company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit
risk on cash and cash equivalents.
21
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Our company is in the exploration stage and has yet to realize revenues from
operations. Once our company has commenced operations, it will recognize
revenues when delivery of goods or completion of services has occurred provided
there is persuasive evidence of an agreement, acceptance has been approved by
its customers, the fee is fixed or determinable based on the completion of
stated terms and conditions, and collection of any related receivable is
probable.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly-owned
subsidiary. All material inter-company transactions have been eliminated.
LOSS PER SHARE
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the year. The computation of diluted earnings per share assumes the conversion,
exercise or contingent issuance of securities only when such conversion,
exercise or issuance would have a dilutive effect on earnings per share. The
dilutive effect of convertible securities is reflected in diluted earnings per
share by application of the "if converted" method. In the periods in which a
loss is incurred, the effect of potential issuances of shares under options and
warrants would be anti-dilutive, and therefore basic and diluted losses per
share are the same.
COMPUTER EQUIPMENT
Computer equipment is stated on the basis of historical cost less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets which has been estimated as 2 years.
Impairment losses are recorded on computer equipment used in operations when
indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated
to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount.
INCOME TAXES
The asset and liability approach is used to account for income taxes by
recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax
consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax
basis of assets and liabilities.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Our company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable,
prepaid expenses, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Unless otherwise
noted, it is management's opinion that our company is not exposed to significant
interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
Because of the short maturity and capacity of prompt liquidation of such assets
and liabilities, the fair value of these financial instruments approximate their
carrying values, unless otherwise noted.
22
MINERAL PROPERTIES
Costs of exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties
are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized
including licenses and lease payments. Although our company has taken steps to
verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures
do not guarantee our company's title. Such properties may be subject to prior
