NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2012

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  The consolidated financial statements and notes are presented as permitted on Form 10-Q and do not contain information included in the Company’s annual statements and notes.  Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2011 Form 10-K filed with the SEC, including the audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto.  While management believes the procedures followed in preparing these financial statements are reasonable, the accuracy of the amounts are in some respects dependent upon the facts that will exist, and procedures that will be accomplished by the Company later in the year.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Continental Resources Group, Inc. (the "Company"), formerly American Energy Fields, Inc. was incorporated as Sienna Resources, Inc. in the State of Delaware on July 20, 2007 to engage in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties.  On December 21, 2009, the Company had filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware in order to change our name to “American Energy Fields, Inc.”, change our authorized capital to 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share and create “blank check” preferred stock. On June 28, 2011, the Company changed its name to Continental Resources Group, Inc. from “American Energy Fields, Inc.

On December 24, 2009, the Company had entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Green Energy Fields, Inc., a privately-held Nevada corporation (“Green Energy”), and the shareholders of Green Energy.  Upon closing of the transaction contemplated under the Exchange Agreement, on December 24, 2009, the shareholders of Green Energy transferred all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Green Energy to the Company in exchange for shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Exchange”).  Such Exchange had caused Green Energy to become our wholly-owned subsidiary.  Immediately following the closing of the Exchange, under an Agreement of Conveyance, Transfer and Assignment of Assets and Assumption of Obligations (the “Conveyance Agreement”),the Company transferred all of its pre-Exchange assets and liabilities (“Split-off”) to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Sienna Resources Holdings, Inc. (“SplitCo”).  Thereafter, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement, the Company transferred all of the outstanding capital stock of SplitCo to its former officer and director, in exchange for the cancellation of shares of the Company’s common stock that she owned.  Following the Exchange and the Split-off, the Company’s sole line of business was the business of Green Energy.

The Company is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of properties that may contain uranium mineralization in the United States.  Our target properties are those that have been the subject of historical exploration.  The Company had acquired State Leases and federal unpatented mining claims in the states of Arizona and California for the purpose of exploration and potential development of uranium.

(AN EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2012

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (continued)

Since the Company had no assets of substance prior to the Exchange, for accounting purposes the Exchange had been treated as a merger of both companies and recapitalization of the shares of Green Energy with the Company.  The accounting rules for reverse acquisitions require that, beginning with the date of the acquisition (December 24, 2009), the balance sheet included the assets and liabilities of Green Energy and the equity accounts be recapitalized to reflect the net equity of Green Energy.  Accordingly, the historical operating results of Green Energy were now the operating results of the Company. Green Energy was formed on November 23, 2009.

On July 22, 2011, the Company, Pershing Gold Corporation (“Pershing”) (formerly Pershing Gold Ltd.), and Continental Resources Acquisition Sub, Inc., Pershing’s wholly owned subsidiary (“Acquisition Sub”), entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) and, through the Acquisition Sub, closed on the purchase of substantially all of the assets of the Company (the “Asset Sale”) in consideration for (i) shares of Pershing’s common stock (the “Shares”) which was equal to eight Shares for every 10 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding; (ii) the assumption of the outstanding warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock and (iii)  the assumption of the Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan and all options granted and issued thereunder. After giving effect to the foregoing, Pershing issued 76,095,214 shares of its Common Stock, 41,566,999 warrants, and 2,248,000 stock options following the transaction.

Consequently, the issuance of 76,095,214 shares of Pershing’s common stock accounted for approximately 67% of the total issued and outstanding stocks of Pershing as of July 22, 2011 and the Company had become the parent company of Pershing. Between January 2012 and February 2012, Pershing issued shares of its common stock thereby reducing the Company’s ownership interest below 50%. Accordingly, the Company no longer has a controlling financial interest in Pershing. Effective February 9, 2012, the Company’s ownership interest was reduced to 48.5% and has further decreased to 42.23% as of March 31, 2012. Consequently, the Company was required to deconsolidate Pershing and record the Company’s retained non-controlling investment in Pershing at fair value at the date of deconsolidation. After the deconsolidation, as of March 31, 2012, the Company owned 42.23% of Pershing, which the Company accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method, the Company is considered the equity method investor and Pershing is considered the equity method investee. As a result, the unaudited consolidated financial statements included the accounts of the Company and its former subsidiary, Pershing, from July 22, 2011 until February 8, 2012 (see Note 4).

On December 22, 2011 the Board of Directors of the Company approved the change of the Company’s fiscal year to end on December 31 from March 31.

GOING CONCERN

Future issuances of the Company's equity or debt securities will be required in order for the Company to continue to finance its operations and continue as a going concern. The Company's present revenues are insufficient to meet operating expenses. The unaudited consolidated financial statement of the Company have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable period of time. The Company has incurred a net loss attributable to Continental Resources Group, Inc. of $9,547,972 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and cumulative net losses of approximately $36.5 million since its inception and requires capital for its contemplated operational and marketing activities to take place. The Company's ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company's contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The unaudited consolidated financial statements included the accounts and operating results of the Company and its former subsidiary, Pershing, until February 8, 2012 (see Note 4). Investments in less than 50% owned affiliates in which the Company has significant influence are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. In the preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company, intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated and net earnings were reduced by the portion of the net earnings of subsidiaries applicable to non-controlling interests.

EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY

The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring exploration and development stage natural resource properties. The Company has not commenced business operations. The Company is an exploration stage company as defined in ASC 915 “Development Stage Entities”.

NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS IN CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In December 2007, the FASB issued ASC 810-10-65, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51,” (“SFAS No. 160”).  This statement clarifies that a non-controlling (minority) interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. It also requires consolidated net income to include the amounts attributable to both the parent and non-controlling interest, with disclosure on the face of the consolidated income statement of the amounts attributed to the parent and to the non-controlling interest. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with presentation and disclosure requirements applied retrospectively to comparative financial statements. In accordance with ASC 810-10-45-21, those losses attributable to the parent and the non-controlling interest in subsidiary may exceed their interests in the subsidiary’s equity. The excess and any further losses attributable to the parent and the non-controlling interest shall be attributed to those interests even if that attribution results in a deficit non-controlling interest balance. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company recorded a non-controlling interest balance of $0 and $8,126,855 in connection with the Company’s former subsidiary, Pershing as reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to investment tax credits, bad debts, income taxes and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant estimates made by management included, but were not limited to, the useful life of property and equipment, the assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation, derivative liability, and debt discount, capitalized mineral rights, asset valuations, and common stock issued for services. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

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 financial institution that is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company’s account at this institution is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $250,000. In addition to the basic insurance deposit coverage, the FDIC is providing temporary unlimited coverage for non-interest bearing transaction accounts through December 31, 2012. At March 31, 2012, the Company has not reached bank balances exceeding the FDIC insurance limit. The Company has not incurred any losses on bank balances exceeding the FDIC insurance limit. To reduce its risk associated with the failure of such financial institution, the Company evaluates at least annually the rating of the financial institution in which it holds deposits.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Marketable securities that the Company invested in publicly traded equity securities and were generally restricted for sale under Federal securities laws. The Company’s policy was to liquidate securities received when market conditions are favorable for sale. Since these securities were often restricted, the Company was unable to liquidate them until the restriction is removed. Marketable securities that were bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are to be classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Pursuant to ASC Topic 320, “Investments –Debt and Equity Securities” the Company’s marketable securities have a readily determinable and active quoted price, such as from NASDAQ, NYSE Euronext, the Over the Counter Bulletin Board, and the OTC Markets Group (formerly known as the Pink Sheets). Trading securities were carried at fair value, with changes in unrealized holding gains and losses included in income and classified within interest and other income, net, in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-05 amends FASB Codification Topic 220 on comprehensive income (1) to eliminate the current option to present the components of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity, and (2) to require presentation of net income and other comprehensive income (and their respective components) either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. These amendments do not alter any current recognition or measurement requirements in respect of items of other comprehensive income. The amendments in this Update are to be applied prospectively.

PREPAID EXPENSES

Prepaid expenses – current portion of $7,500 and $471,237 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, consist primarily of costs paid for future services which will occur within a year. Prepaid expenses included prepayments (in cash, common stock and warrants) of public relation services, consulting and business advisory services and prepaid mineral lease which are being amortized over the terms of their respective agreements. Prepaid expenses – long term portion of $0 and $37,759 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, consist primarily of costs paid for future mineral lease payments after one year. Effective February 9, 2012, prepaid expenses paid by our former subsidiary, Pershing, were deconsolidated as a result of the reduction of the Company’s ownership interest below 50% and the Company no longer has a controlling financial interest in Pershing (see Note 4).

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or operating results, but did expand certain disclosures.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:

Level 1:	Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2:	Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
Level 3:	Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under the FASB’s accounting standard for such instruments. Under this standard, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Depending on the product and the terms of the transaction, the fair value of notes payable and derivative liabilities were modeled using a series of techniques, including closed-form analytic formula, such as the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company did not identify any other assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with the accounting guidance.

On February 9, 2012, the date of deconsolidation, the Company has accounted for the investment in the common stock of the former subsidiary, Pershing, through the use of Level 3 inputs (See Note 5).

MINERAL PROPERTY ACQUISITION AND EXPLORATION COSTS

Costs of lease, exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. The Company has chosen to expense all mineral exploration costs as incurred given that it is still in the exploration stage. Once the Company has identified proven and probable reserves in its investigation of its properties and upon development of a plan for operating a mine, it would enter the development stage and capitalize future costs until production is established. When a property reaches the production stage, the related capitalized costs will be amortized, using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable-proven reserves. When the Company has capitalized mineral properties, these properties will be periodically assessed for impairment of value and any diminution in value. To date, the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of any exploration prospects; therefore, all costs are being expensed. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company incurred exploration cost of $690,483 and $64,586, respectively.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

As of the date of these consolidated financial statements, the Company had not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties and had incurred only acquisition and exploration costs.

ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION LIABILITY

The Company, through our former subsidiary, Pershing, posted bonds with United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) in the amount required by the State of Nevada equal to the maximum cost to reclaim land disturbed in its mining process. Pershing posted a reclamation bond deposit of $4,557,629 to provide surface reclamation coverage for the Relief Canyon Mine, as required by the BLM to secure remediation costs if the project is abandoned or closed. Due to its investment in the bond and the close monitoring of the BLM Nevada State Office, the Company believes that it has adequately mitigated any liability that could be incurred by the Company to reclaim lands disturbed in its mining process. Pershing also posted a surface management bond with United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management for a total of $50,000 and had been included in deposits. Effective February 9, 2012, such reclamation bond and deposits posted by our former subsidiary, Pershing, were deconsolidated as a result of the reduction of the Company’s ownership interest below 50% and the Company no longer has a controlling financial interest in Pershing (see Note 4).

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment were carried at cost. The cost of repairs and maintenance was expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements were capitalized.  When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation were removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses were included in income in the year of disposition.  Depreciation was calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets, generally three to twenty five years.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company accounts for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets according to ASC 360 “Property, Plant and Equipment”. The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of long-lived assets, including mineral rights, may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets in the exploration stage are monitored for impairment based on factors such as the Company's continued right to explore the area, exploration reports, assays, technical reports, drill results and the Company's continued plans to fund exploration programs on the property, whether sufficient work has been performed to indicate that the carrying amount of the mineral property cost carried forward as an asset will not be fully recovered, even though a viable mine has been discovered. The tests for long-lived assets in the exploration stage would be monitored for impairment based on factors such as current market value of the long-lived assets and results of exploration, future asset utilization, business climate, mineral prices and future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the related assets. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. When necessary, impaired assets are written down to estimate fair value based on the best information available. Estimated fair value is generally based on either appraised value or measured by discounting estimated future cash flows. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate discounted future cash flows. Accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded impairment of mining rights of $0 and $444,200, respectively. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset.

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In accordance with ASC 350- 30-65, the Company assesses the impairment of identifiable intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors the Company considers to be important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

1.	Significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;
2.	Significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and
3.	Significant negative industry or economic trends.

When the Company determines that the carrying value of intangibles may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment and the carrying value of the asset cannot be recovered from projected undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge. The Company measures any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in the current business model. Significant management judgment is required in determining whether an indicator of impairment exists and in projecting cash flows. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded an impairment of goodwill of $0 and $3,065,014. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset.

NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Net loss per common share is calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 260: Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260”). Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted net loss per share does not include dilutive common stock equivalents in the weighted average shares outstanding as they would be anti-dilutive. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2012			Three Months Ended March 31, 2011			Period from Inception November 23, 2009 to March 31, 2012

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.

RELATED PARTIES

Parties are considered to be related to the Company if the parties, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The Company discloses all related party transactions.

INCOME TAXES

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases as well as operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods 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 in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent that the recoverability of the asset is unlikely to be recognized.

The Company follows ASC 740 rules governing uncertain tax positions, which provides guidance for recognition and measurement. This prescribes a threshold condition that a tax position must meet for any of the benefits of the uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements. It also provides accounting guidance on derecognization, classification and disclosure of these uncertain tax positions.

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

NOTE 3 – ACQUISITIONS

SECURE ENERGY LLC

On March 17, 2011, the Company had entered into Membership Interests Sale Agreements with Prospect Uranium Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Prospect”) and Gordon R. Haworth (“Haworth”) for the purchase of 51.35549% and 24.32225% of the membership interests of Secure Energy, a North Dakota limited liability company. The Company paid $60,000 cash and issued 2,725,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Prospect and assumed certain obligations and liabilities of Prospect in the approximate amount of $80,000, and issued 975,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Haworth. Upon closing of this transaction on March 17, 2011, Secure Energy had become a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company. On July 22, 2011, under the terms of the asset purchase agreement, Pershing purchased from the Company the membership interest of 75.68% in Secure Energy. As such, Secure Energy became a majority-owned subsidiary of Pershing. The purchase consideration included $60,000 in cash and 3.7 million shares of the Company’s stock valued at the fair market value on the date of grant at $0.80 per share thus a total purchase price of $3,020,000.

The Company had accounted for the acquisition utilizing the purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations”. The Company was the acquirer for accounting purposes and Secure Energy was the acquired company.  Accordingly, the Company had applied push–down accounting and had adjusted to fair value all of the assets and liabilities directly on the financial statements of Secure Energy. The net purchase price paid by the Company had been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the records of the Company as follows:

Current assets (including cash of $41)	$	10,008
Prepaid expenses – long term portion		45,651
Goodwill		3,065,014
Liabilities assumed (including a 12% note payable of $50,000)		(100,673	)
Net purchase price	$	3,020,000

Prepaid expenses – long term portion acquired consist primarily of costs paid for future mineral lease payments after one year in connection with three Uranium lease agreements dated in year 2007. Such prepaid cost was associated with lease payments for year 2013 to 2017.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded an impairment of goodwill of $0 and $3,065,014, respectively, associated with the acquisition of Secure Energy. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Secure Energy had not generated future cash flows and revenues since its inception, had incurred losses and cash used in operations, management deemed the acquired goodwill to be impaired and wrote-off the goodwill on the acquisition date.

GOLD ACQUISITION CORP.

On August 30, 2011, the Company, through Pershing’s wholly owned subsidiary, Gold Acquisition  Corp., acquired the Relief Canyon Mine (“Relief Canyon”) located in Pershing County, near Lovelock, Nevada,  for an aggregate purchase price consisting of: (i)  $12,000,000 cash and (ii)  $8,000,000 of senior secured convertible promissory notes (collectively, the “Notes”) issued to Platinum Long Term Growth LLC (“Platinum”) and Lakewood Group LLC (“Lakewood” and collectively with Platinum, the “Sellers”).The Company acquired Relief Canyon, a previously operating gold mine owned by Firstgold Corp. (“Firstgold”) (previously named Newgold, Inc.). The Relief Canyon mining project is located to the northeast of Reno, Nevada. Firstgold was founded in 1995 and on or about January 27, 2010, Firstgold filed a voluntary petition (the “Case”) under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code commencing Case No.  BK-N-10-50215- GWZ in the United States Bankruptcy Court, District of Nevada (the “Court”).  On December 17, 2010, the Court entered its Order Authorizing And Approving: (1) Sale Of Real Property And Certain Personal Property Assets Pursuant To 11 U.S.C. § 363 Free And Clear Of Liens, Claims, and Interests; and (2) Assumption and Assignment Of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Under 11 U.S.C. § 365; and (3) Related Relief entered December 17, 2010 (the “Sale Order”), docket number 328 in the Case, pursuant to which Platinum (as collateral agent) was approved as the successful “back up bidder” for the assets (the “Relief Canyon Mining Assets”) described in the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 2011 (the “APA”), between Platinum and Firstgold.  The Relief Canyon Mining Assets, as described in the APA, include any rights of Firstgold in any reclamation bonds or funds on deposit with the Bureau of Land Management pertaining to the Relief Canyon Mine, in an amount of approximately $2.8 million.

On August 30, 2011, pursuant to the Sale Order, Pershing purchased 100% of the Relief Canyon Mining Assets through acquisition of Platinum's rights under the APA which acquisition includes mining and mill-site claims. Accordingly, no unaudited pro forma results of operations data are available for this asset acquisition.

The Relief Canyon Mine is subject to a continuing royalty payment equal 2% of “Net Smelter Returns” payable to Battle Mountain Gold Exploration LLC (the “NSR Agreement”).  Net Smelter Returns are the difference between Gross Proceeds and Expenses from the operation of the Relief Canyon Mining Assets.

The purchase consideration included $12,000,000 cash and $8,000,000 of senior secured convertible promissory notes to Sellers for a total purchase price of $20,000,000. The Company had accounted for the acquisition utilizing the purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations”. Accordingly, the Company had applied push–down accounting and adjusted to fair value all of the assets and liabilities directly on the financial statements of Pershing’s wholly owned subsidiary, Gold Acquisition. The net purchase price paid by Pershing had been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the records of the Company as follows:

Reclamation bond	$	2,842,000
Property and equipment		8,656,929
Mineral rights		8,501,071
Net purchase price	$	20,000,000

Effective February 9, 2012, such assets acquired by our former subsidiary, Pershing, were deconsolidated as a result of the reduction of the Company’s ownership interest below 50% and the Company no longer has a controlling financial interest in Pershing (see Note 4).

NOTE 4 – DECONSOLIDATION

PERSHING GOLD CORPORATION

On July 22, 2011, the Company, Pershing and Acquisition Sub, had entered into an asset purchase agreement the (“Agreement”) pursuant to which Acquisition Sub purchased substantially all of the assets of the Company (the “Asset Sale”) in consideration for (i) shares of Pershing’s common stock (the “Shares”) which was equal to eight (8) Shares for every ten (10) shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding; (ii) the assumption of the outstanding warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock such that Pershing delivered to the holders of the Company’s warrants, warrants to purchase shares of Pershing’s common stock (the “Warrants”) which was equal to one  Warrant to purchase eight (8) shares of Pershing’s common stock for every warrant to purchase ten (10) shares the Company’s common stock outstanding at an exercise price equal to such amount as is required pursuant to the terms of the outstanding warrants, and (iii)  the assumption of the Company’s  2010 Equity Incentive Plan and all options granted and issued thereunder such that Pershing delivered to the Company’s option holders, options (the “Options”) to purchase an aggregate of such number of shares of Pershing’s common stock issuable under Pershing’s equity incentive plan which was equal to one  option to purchase eight (8) shares of Pershing’s common stock for every option to purchase ten (10) shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding with a strike price equal to such amount as is required pursuant to the terms of the outstanding option. Under the terms of the Agreement, Pershing purchased from the Company substantially all of the Company’s assets, including, but not limited to, 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries (Green Energy Fields, Inc., and ND Energy, Inc.). Upon the closing of the Asset Sale, Acquisition Sub assumed the Assumed Liabilities (as defined in the Agreement) of the Company. After giving effect to the foregoing, Pershing issued 76,095,214 shares of its common stock, 41,566,999 of its stock warrants, and 2,248,000 of its stock options following the transaction. Consequently, the issuance of 76,095,214 shares of Pershing’s common stock accounted for approximately 67% of the total issued and outstanding stocks of Pershing as of July 22, 2011 and the Company had become the Parent Company of Pershing. As a result, the consolidated financial statements of the Company included the accounts of the Company and Pershing from July 22, 2011.

Pershing had accounted the value of the consideration under ASC 805-50-30-2 “Business Combinations” whereby if the consideration is not in the form of cash, the measurement is based on either the cost which shall be measured based on the fair value of the consideration given or the fair value of the assets (or net assets) acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and thus more reliably measurable. Pershing deemed that the fair value of the net asset of the Company amounting to $14,857,676 was more clearly evident and more reliable measurement basis.

A majority of the stockholders of the Company approved the Agreement by written consent on or about July 21, 2011. There can be no assurance that the transaction will be tax free to any particular stockholder or the ability or timing of receipt of all approvals necessary to liquidate. The Agreement constitutes a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g) and constitutes a plan of liquidation of the Company. The Company is expected to liquidate on or prior to July 1, 2012. Pershing has agreed to file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) in connection with liquidation of Continental no later than 30 days following (i) the closing date of the Asset Sale or (ii) such date that Continental delivers to the Company its audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011. The Company will subsequently distribute the registered Shares to its shareholders as part of its liquidation. Pershing agreed to use its best efforts to cause such registration to be declared effective within twelve months following the closing date of the Asset Sale. Pershing has agreed to pay liquidated damages of 1% per month, up to a maximum of 5%, in the event that Pershing fails to file or is unable to cause the registration statement to be declared effective.

NOTE 4 – DECONSOLIDATION (continued)

Between January 2012 and February 2012, Pershing issued shares of its common stock resulting in the reduction of the Company’s ownership interest below 50%.  Accordingly, the Company no longer has a controlling financial interest in Pershing. Effective February 9, 2012, the Company’s ownership interest was reduced to 48.5% and, as of March 31, 2012, the Company’s ownership was further reduced to 42.23%. Consequently, the Company was required to deconsolidate.  Pershing, in accordance with ASC 810-10-40 “Deconsolidation of a Subsidiary”, recorded the Company’s retained non-controlling investment in Pershing at fair value at the date of deconsolidation. The Company has determined that the fair value of the retained non-controlling investment in the former subsidiary is the difference between Pershing’s net assets and non-controlling interest on the date of deconsolidation and thus, the Company did not record any gain or loss from deconsolidation. After the deconsolidation, and as of March 31, 2012, the Company owned 42.23% of Pershing, and such investment was accounted for under the equity method. As a result, the unaudited consolidated financial statements included the accounts of the Company and its former subsidiary, Pershing, from July 22, 2011 until February 8, 2012.

On February 9, 2012, the Company deconsolidated a majority-owned subsidiary due to the reduction of the Company’s ownership interest below 50% and the Company no longer has a controlling financial interest in Pershing.

NOTE 5 – EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENT

The Company has accounted for the investments in accordance with ASC 970-323 as an equity method investment. Investments in less than 50% interest in the voting securities of the investee company in which the Company has significant influence are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Investment in equity investee is increased by additional investments and earnings and decreased by dividends and losses. The Company reviews such Investment in equity investee for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate a decline in the recoverability of its carrying value.

Effective February 9, 2012, the Company’s ownership interest in Pershing was reduced to 48.5% and, as of March 31, 2012, the Company’s ownership was further reduced to 42.23% as of March 31, 2012. Consequently, the Company was required to deconsolidate Pershing and record the Company’s retained non-controlling investment in Pershing at fair value at the date of deconsolidation which amounted to $8,096,745 (see Note 4). After the deconsolidation, and as of March 31, 2012, the Company owned 42.23% of Pershing, which the Company accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method, the Company is considered the equity method investor and Pershing is considered the equity method investee. The Company’s share of the earnings or losses of the equity investee is reflected in the caption “share of loss of equity method investee” in the consolidated statements of operations.

The following table sets forth certain information about the Company’s Investment in Pershing:

	% of Outstanding Shares			Carrying Amount of Investment

Equity in loss of equity investee:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012		2011
Pershing	$	8,096,745	$	-

The Company recorded its share of Pershing’s net loss using the equity method of accounting and such investment has been reduced to zero. Under ASC 323-10-35 “Investments – Equity Method”, the equity method investor shall discontinue applying the equity method when the investment has been reduced to zero and shall not provide for additional losses, unless the equity method investor provides or commits to provide additional funds to the investee, has guaranteed obligations of the investee, or is otherwise committed to provide further financial support to the investee. The Company is not obligated or committed to provide additional funds or further financial support to Pershing and as such the Company shall not record additional share of losses of Pershing upon reducing such investment to zero.

In September 2011, the Company’s former subsidiary, Pershing, had decided to discontinue its sports and entertainment business. As a result, Pershing will no longer be engaged in or pursue agreements with artists or athletes for sports and entertainment promotion and events, and will focus its activities exclusively on its new business segment, gold exploration as a junior exploration company. On September 1, 2011, Pershing had disposed of its Empire Sports & Entertainment Co. (“Empire”) subsidiary pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) by and between Pershing, Empire and Concert International Inc. (“CII”).

NOTE 7 – MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Marketable securities –trading securities held by Pershing at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 amounted to $0 and $100,000, respectively.

In January 2012, the Company’s former subsidiary, Pershing, received 10 million restricted shares pursuant to an option agreement (see Note 15). At the time of issuance, Pershing recorded the cost of investment in marketable securities, available for sale at the fair market value (based on the recent selling price of the Investee’s common stock at a private placement) of the shares at $0.50 per share or $5 million. Unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities available for sale were recognized on a periodic basis as an element of comprehensive income based on changes in the fair value of the security. Once liquidated, realized gains or losses on the sale of marketable securities available for sale will be reflected in the Company’s net loss for the period in which the security are liquidated.

Effective February 9, 2012, such marketable securities held by our former subsidiary, Pershing, were deconsolidated as a result of the reduction of the Company’s ownership interest below 50% and the Company no longer has a controlling financial interest in Pershing (see Note 4).

NOTE 10 – SENIOR CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES

On August 30, 2011, the Company, through Pershing’s wholly owned subsidiary, Gold Acquisition acquired the Relief Canyon Mine located in Pershing County, near Lovelock, Nevada, for an aggregate purchase price consisting of: (i) $12,000,000 cash and (ii) $8,000,000 of senior secured convertible promissory notes (collectively, the “Notes”) issued to Platinum and Lakewood.

The Notes were joint and several obligations of Pershing and Gold Acquisition and bear interest at a rate of 9% per annum with principal and interest payable on the first business day of each month commencing on the earlier of: (i) 3 months after Pershing or Gold Acquisition begins producing or extracting gold from the Relief Canyon Mine or (ii) 18 months after the original date of issuance of the Note (the “Commencement Date”). The Notes were convertible into shares of Pershing’s common stock, at a price per share equal to $0.55, subject to adjustment in the event of mergers, recapitalizations, dividends and distributions applicable to shareholders generally and are further subject to full-ratchet anti-dilution protection.   In October 2011, the conversion price of these $8 million senior convertible promissory notes was adjusted to $0.40 per share as a result of certain anti-dilution provisions contained therein due to the sale of Pershing’s common stock at $0.40 per share (see Note 14).

NOTE 10 – SENIOR CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES (continued)

Between January 1, 2012 and February 8, 2012, Pershing prepaid a total of $39,549 towards the senior secured convertible promissory note to Platinum and Lakewood.

Effective February 9, 2012, such senior convertible promissory note owed by our former subsidiary, Pershing, were deconsolidated as a result of the reduction of the Company’s ownership interest below 50% and the Company no longer has a controlling financial interest in Pershing (see Note 4).

Senior convertible promissory notes	$	-	$	7,999,778
Less: debt discount		-		(6,933,333	)

Prior to the deconsolidation of Pershing, total amortization of debt discounts for the senior convertible promissory note amounted to $266,667 and $0, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 and was included in interest expense. Accrued interest as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 amounted to $0 and $45,999, respectively.

In accordance with ASC Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”, these senior convertible promissory notes included a down-round provision under which the conversion price could be affected by future equity offerings (see Note 13). Instruments with down-round protection are not considered indexed to a company's own stock under ASC Topic 815, because neither the occurrence of a sale of common stock by the company at market nor the issuance of another equity-linked instrument with a lower strike price is an input to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares.

NOTE 11 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES

Between October 15, 2010 and December 3, 2010, the Company issued secured convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000. The convertible promissory notes matured on the sixth month anniversary of the date of issuance and accrue interest at an annual rate of ten percent (10%).  The convertible promissory notes were payable in full on the maturity date unless previously converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.00 per share.  In connection with these convertible promissory notes, the Company granted 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company valued these common shares at the fair market value on the date of grant.

Additionally, based on the promissory note agreement, the holders of the convertible promissory notes shall have the right to convert the principal and any interest due under the convertible promissory notes into the shares of the Company issued and sold to investors in a Qualified Financing as defined in the convertible promissory note agreement, at a conversion price equal/similar to purchase price per share of the Qualified Financing securities paid by the investors in such financing. In December 2010, the Company had a private placement qualified as Qualified Financing (discussed above) and thus a holder of $50,000 worth of convertible promissory note exercised its right under the agreement to have the outstanding principal of and accrued interest on such note converted into similar securities offered in the private placement/qualified financing. Convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $50,000 (plus $416 in accrued interest) converted into 100,833 units in the private placement on December 29, 2010. Such units include 100,833 shares of the Company’s common stock and a five year warrant to purchase 100,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share.

NOTE 11 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES (continued)

In January 2011, the Company paid $50,000 plus interest of $2,250 in connection with the convertible promissory note issued in October 2010. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, this convertible promissory note including accrued interest amounted to $0.

At the date of issuance, the Company allocated the proceeds received from such financing transaction to the convertible promissory note and the detached 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on a relative fair value basis in accordance with ASC 470 -20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options”. Therefore the portion of proceeds allocated to the convertible debentures and the detached common stock amounted to $100,000 and was determined based on the relative fair values of each instruments at the time of issuance.  Consequently the Company recorded a debt discount of $41,000 and is being amortized over the term of the convertible promissory notes.

Additionally, in December 2010, the Company recognized additional debt discount of $35,000 from the conversion of $50,000 into similar securities offered in the private placement/qualified financing and such debt discount was amortized in December 2010. Additionally, the Company evaluated whether or not the convertible promissory notes contain embedded conversion features, which meet the definition of derivatives under ASC 815-15 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and related interpretations. The Company concluded that since the convertible promissory notes have a fixed conversion price of $1.00, the convertible promissory notes are not considered derivatives. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, amortization of debt discount amounted to $0 and $15,000, respectively.

On February 1, 2011, the Company’s former subsidiary, Pershing, raised $750,000 in consideration for the issuance of convertible promissory notes from various investors, including $100,000 from Pershing’s Member of the Board of Directors. The convertible promissory notes bore interest at 5% per annum and were convertible into shares of Pershing’s common stock at a fixed rate of $1.00 per share. The convertible promissory notes were due on February 1, 2012. In connection with these convertible promissory notes, Pershing issued 750,000 shares of its common stock. The Company valued these common shares at the fair market value on the date of grant.

In accordance with ASC 470-20-25, the convertible promissory notes were considered to have an embedded beneficial conversion feature because the effective conversion price was less than the fair value of the Company’s common stock. In addition the Company allocated the proceeds received from such financing transaction to the convertible promissory note and the detached 750,000 shares of Pershing’s common stock on a relative fair value basis in accordance with ASC 470 -20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options”. Therefore the portion of proceeds allocated to the convertible debentures and the detached common stock amounted to $750,000 and was determined based on the relative fair values of each instruments at the time of issuance.  Consequently the Company recorded a debt discount of $750,000 which is limited to the amount of proceeds and is being amortized over the term of the convertible promissory notes. The Company evaluated whether or not the convertible promissory notes contain embedded conversion features, which meet the definition of derivatives under ASC 815-15 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and related interpretations.

The Company concluded that since the convertible promissory notes had a fixed conversion price of $1.00, the convertible promissory notes were not considered derivatives. On October 31, 2011, Pershing had entered into amendment agreements (the “Amendments”) with holders of Pershing’s outstanding 5% convertible promissory notes dated as of February 1, 2011 in the aggregate principal amount of $750,000.  Pursuant to the Amendments, the Fixed Conversion Price (as defined in the Convertible Notes) was adjusted from $1.00 to $0.65. The note holders, including Pershing’s Board Member Barry Honig, converted their outstanding notes to Pershing’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.65 per share.  In total, $750,000 of notes was converted, plus accrued interest of $27,555, with Pershing issuing 1,196,238 shares in exchange. The Company accounted the reduction of the original conversion price from $1.00 to $0.65 per share  and such conversion under ASC 470-20-40 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” and accordingly recorded  interest expense of $230,192 which is equal to the fair value of shares issued in excess of the fair value issuable pursuant to the original conversion terms. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, principal and accrued interest on these convertible promissory notes amounted to $0.

NOTE 11 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES (continued)

On September 14, 2011, the Company’s former subsidiary, Pershing, sold $1,715,604 of its 9% secured promissory note (the “Note”). The proceeds of the Note have been used to post additional bonds with the Bureau of Land Management (the “Additional Bond”) in order to advance certain exploration and Phase One drilling activities at the Relief Canyon Mining property located in Antelope Springs Nevada. The Note was the joint and several obligation of Pershing and Gold Acquisition Corp. Principal and interest under the Note was payable on the first business day of each month commencing on the later of (i) thirty (30) months from the original date of issuance and (ii) ten (10) days following the payment and/or conversion in full of the senior secured promissory notes dated as of August 30, 2011, issued to Platinum Long Term Growth LLC and Lakewood Group LLC. The Note may be pre-paid, in full or in part at a price equal to 105% of the aggregate principal amount of the Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the election of the Company. The Note was convertible into shares of Pershing’s common stock at a price equal to $0.50 per share, subject to adjustment in the event of mergers, recapitalizations, dividends and distributions applicable to shareholders generally. On and after an Event of Default, as defined in the Note, the Note may be declared by the holder to be due and payable and the full amount thereof accelerated. In such event: (i) the entire unpaid principal balance of the Note multiplied by two (2) and (ii) all interest accrued thereon, shall become immediately due and payable as the non-exclusive remedy of the Note holder. Following a default, interest on the Note will accrue at a rate of 18% per annum. The Note was subordinated to the payment in full and satisfaction of all obligations owed to Platinum and Lakewood other than the Additional Bond and proceeds of the Additional Bond, in which the Note holder is intended to have a first priority senior security interest. The Note was also secured by a pledge of 100% of the stock of Gold Acquisition Corp. held by Pershing. The Note may be prepaid upon the occurrence of a Qualified Financing, as defined in the Note, of at least $1,715,604. Certain holders of senior secured indebtedness of Pershing (including Pershing’s Member of the Board, Barry Honig) agreed to subordinate certain senior obligations of Pershing to the prior payment of all obligations under the Note.

The Company concluded that since this convertible promissory note did not include a down-round provision under which the conversion price could be affected by future equity offerings, this convertible promissory note was not considered derivatives.

Pursuant to the terms of the Note, Pershing was required to prepay the principal amount of the Note in full upon the occurrence of a Qualified Financing, which was defined in the Note as the closing of an equity investment in Pershing’s capital stock (or any equity-linked financing) in which Pershing receives from one or more investors, net proceeds of at least $1,715,604 (not including any outstanding debt conversion or investments made by the note holder).  Pershing had determined that the sale of the Units that occurred between September 2011 and October 2011, in the aggregate, constitutes a “Qualified Financing” under the terms of the Note and accordingly, Pershing was required to prepay the outstanding principal value of the Note.  On October 31, 2011, Pershing and Note holder had entered into a Waiver Agreement pursuant to which Pershing and the Note holder had agreed that Pershing would prepay $700,000 principal of the Note and would waive (i) prepayment of the balance of the principal of the Note and (ii) any default under the Note arising solely from Pershing’s partial prepayment of the Note upon the occurrence of the Qualified Financing.

NOTE 12 – NOTES PAYABLE

In February 2011, through our former subsidiary, Pershing, Empire Sports & Entertainment Co. (“Empire”) and Pershing’s wholly-owned subsidiary, EXCX Funding Corp. (collectively the “Borrowers”), had entered into a credit facility agreement (the “Credit Facility Agreement”) with two lenders, whereby one of the lenders is Pershing’s Member of the Board of Directors. The credit facility consisted of a loan pursuant to which $4.5 million can be borrowed on a senior secured basis. The indebtedness under the loan facility was evidenced by a promissory note payable to the order of the lenders. The loan was used exclusively to fund the costs and expenses of certain music and sporting events (the “Events”) as agreed to by the parties. The notes bore interest at 6% per annum and mature on January 31, 2012, subject to acceleration in the event the Borrowers undertake third party financing. In addition to the 6% interest, the Borrower shall also pay all interest, fees, costs and expenses incurred by lenders in connection with the issuance of this loan facility. Pursuant to the Credit Facility Agreement, the Borrowers had entered into a Master Security Agreement, Collateral Assignment and Equity Pledge with the lenders whereby the Borrowers collaterally assigned and pledged to lenders, and granted to lenders a present, absolute, unconditional and continuing security interest in, all of the property, assets and equity interests of Pershing as defined in such agreement. Furthermore, in connection with the Credit Facility Agreement, the Lenders had entered into a Contribution and Security Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) with Pershing’s former Chief Executive Officer, Sheldon Finkel, pursuant to which Sheldon Finkel had agreed to pay or reimburse the lenders the pro rata portion (1/3) of any net losses from Events and irrevocably pledged to lenders a certain irrevocable letter of credit dated in June 2010 in favor of Sheldon Finkel. As consideration for the extension of credit pursuant to the Credit Facility Agreement, the Borrowers were obligated to pay a fee equal to 15% of the initial loan commitment of $4.5 million (the “Preferred Return Fee”) of which Sheldon Finkel, shall receive a pro-rata portion (1/3). The Preferred Return Fee was payable if at all, only out of the net profits from the Events.  Accordingly, Pershing shall record the Preferred Return Fee upon attaining net profits from the Events. Pershing also agreed to issue to the lenders and Sheldon Finkel an aggregate of 2,250,000 shares of Pershing’s designated Series A Preferred Stock, convertible into one share each of Pershing’s common stock. The Company valued the 2,250,000 Series A Preferred Stock at the fair market value of the underlying Pershing’s common stock on the date of grant at $1.20 per share or $2,700,000 and recorded a debt discount of $1,800,000 and deferred financing cost of $900,000 which were amortized over the term of these notes. Such deferred financing cost represented the 750,000 Series A Preferred Stock issued to Sheldon Finkel for guaranteeing one-third of the net losses and assignment of that certain irrevocable letter of credit, as described above. Between May 2011 and March 2012, 2,250,000 of these preferred shares were converted into Pershing’s common stock.

NOTE 13 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

In June 2008, a FASB approved guidance related to the determination of whether a freestanding equity-linked instrument should be classified as equity or debt under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No. 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock. The adoption of this requirement will affect accounting for convertible instruments and warrants with provisions that protect holders from declines in the stock price (“down-round” provisions). Warrants with such provisions will no longer be recorded in equity and would have to be reclassified to a liability. The Issue is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application by an entity that has previously adopted an alternative accounting policy is not permitted.

Instruments with down-round protection are not considered indexed to a company's own stock under ASC Topic 815, because neither the occurrence of a sale of common stock by the company at market nor the issuance of another equity-linked instrument with a lower strike price is an input to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares.

The cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle shall be recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity) for that fiscal year, presented separately. If an instrument is classified as debt, it is valued at fair value, and this value is re-measured on an ongoing basis, with changes recorded on the statement of operations in each reporting period. The Company did not have outstanding instruments with down-round provisions as of the beginning of fiscal 2010 thus no adjustment will be made to the opening balance of retained earnings.

In connection with the issuance of the 9% senior convertible promissory notes dated August 30, 2011, the Company had determined that the terms of the senior convertible notes included a down-round provision under which the conversion price could be affected by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company (see Note 10). Accordingly, the convertible instrument was accounted for as a derivative liability at the date of issuance and adjusted to fair value through earnings at each reporting date.

Effective February 9, 2012, derivative liability in connection with the senior convertible promissory note owed by our former subsidiary, Pershing, were deconsolidated as a result of the reduction of the Company’s ownership interest below 50% and the Company no longer has a controlling financial interest in Pershing (see Note 4). The Company had recognized a derivative liability of $0 and $6,295,400 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Pershing’s Equity Transactions

On September 29, 2011, Pershing sold 3,284,396 shares of its newly designated Series C Convertible Preferred Stock and two-year warrants (the “Preferred Warrants”) to purchase 9,853,188 shares of Pershing’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.60 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $3,284,396. Each share of Pershing’s preferred stock is convertible into shares of its common stock at a conversion price of $0.50 per share, subject to adjustment in the event Pershing issues common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock at a price lower than the conversion price then in effect, but not less than $0.30 per share. The Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1.50 per share (the “Stated Value”). In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the business of Pershing, each share of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, a preferential amount in cash equal to the Stated Value. The Preferred Warrants may be exercised until the second anniversary of issuance at a cash exercise price of $0.60 per share, subject to adjustment. The Preferred Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis at any time after the original date of issuance. On September 29, 2011, Pershing issued 4,429,415 shares of its common stock in connection with the exercise of the 9,853,188 Pershing’s Preferred Warrants on a cashless basis.

In accordance with ASC 505 (“Equity - Dividends and Stock Splits”), Pershing’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock was considered to have an embedded beneficial conversion feature (ECF) because the conversion price was less than the fair value of the Company’s common stock. This Series C Convertible Preferred Stock was fully convertible at the issuance date, therefore a portion of proceeds allocated to the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock was determined to be the value of the beneficial conversion feature and was recorded as a deemed dividend. In connection with the initial sales of Pershing’s Series C Preferred Stock, the initial estimated fair values allocated to the ECF were $1,172,999 and the fair value allocated to Pershing’s warrants of $ 2,111,397 was recorded as a deemed dividend of Pershing on September 29, 2011.

The assumptions used valuing Pershing’s warrants included:

Risk free interest rate (annual)	0.27%
Expected volatility	112%
Expected life	2 Years
Assumed dividends	none

Between September 2011 and October 2011, our former subsidiary, Pershing sold $1,718,000 of Units pursuant to subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) for an aggregate sale of 3,436,000 Units (the “Units”), at a purchase price of $0.50 per Unit.

In September 2011, Pershing issued 866,065 shares of its common stock in connection with the exercise of these 1,678,000 warrants on a cashless basis. Pershing has agreed to file a “resale” registration statement with the SEC covering all shares of these common stock and shares underlying the warrants within 60 days of the final closing date of the sale of any Units and to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement until all securities have been sold or are otherwise able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144. Pershing has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective within 120 days of the final closing on the sale of Units (the “Effectiveness Date”). Pershing is obligated to pay to Investors a fee of 1% per month in cash for every thirty day period up to a maximum of 6%, (i) that the registration statement has not been filed and (ii) following the Effectiveness Date that the registration statement has not been declared effective; provided, however, that Pershing shall not be obligated to pay any such liquidated damages if Pershing is unable to fulfill its registration obligations as a result of rules, regulations, positions or releases issued or actions taken by the SEC pursuant to its authority with respect to “Rule 415”, provided Pershing registers at such time the maximum number of shares of common stock permissible upon consultation with the staff of the SEC.

As of March 31, 2012, the Company holds 42.23% of interest in Pershing.  Effective February 9, 2012, the Company is considered to be an equity method investor and Pershing is considered to be an equity method investee as a result of the decrease of the Company’s ownership interest to less than 50% which is accounted for under equity method of accounting. In March 2012, Pershing issued 250,000 shares of its common stock to a third party for the payment of the Company’s accrued legal fees of $170,614 which is included in due to equity method investee. At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company has a payable due to Pershing amounting to $517,949 and $0 respectively. These advances are short-term in nature and non-interest bearing and have been recorded as due to equity method investee as reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

On January 26, 2012, the Company, through our former subsidiary, Pershing, entered into an Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with American Strategic Minerals Corporation, a Colorado corporation (“Amicor”), pursuant to which Amicor obtained the option  to acquire certain uranium exploration rights and properties held by the Pershing (the “Uranium Properties”), as further described herein.  The Company’s CEO, Joshua Bleak, is a member of the board of directors of Amicor. Pershing's director, David Rector, serves as a member of the board of directors of Amicor. In consideration for issuance of the option, Amicor issued to Pershing (i) a $1,000,000 promissory note payable in installments upon satisfaction of certain conditions (the “Note”), expiring six months following issuance and (ii) 10,000,000 shares of Amicor’s common stock (collectively, the “Option Consideration”). The Note does not bear interest.  The option was exercisable for a period of 90 days following the closing of the Option Agreement, in whole or in part, at an exercise price of Ten Dollars ($10.00) for any or all of the Uranium Properties.  In the event Amicor does not exercise the option, Pershing will retain all of the Option Consideration. Between January 1, 2012 and February 8, 2012, the Company collected $500,000 of the Note. Pershing recorded the 10 million shares of Amicor’s common stock at the fair market value (based on the recent selling price of Amicor’s common stock at a private placement) of the shares at $0.50 per share or $5 million. On the date of the Option Agreement, Pershing recorded the Option Consideration as deferred revenue for a total amount of $6,000,000 to be amortized over the term of the Option Agreement. Effective February 9, 2012, such deferred revenue and uncollected balance of  the Note in connection with this Option Agreement entered into by our former subsidiary, Pershing, were deconsolidated as a result of the reduction of the Company’s ownership interest below 50% and the Company no longer has a controlling financial interest in Pershing (see Note 4).

OVERVIEW

Continental Resources Group, Inc. (“we” or the “Company”) formerly American Energy Fields, Inc. was incorporated as Sienna Resources, Inc. in the State of Delaware on July 20, 2007 to engage in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties.  On December 21, 2009, we had filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in order to change our name to “American Energy Fields, Inc.”, change our authorized capital to 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share and create “blank check” preferred stock. On June 28, 2011, the Company changed its name to Continental Resources Group, Inc. from American Energy Fields, Inc.

On December 24, 2009, we had entered into a share exchange agreement with Green Energy Fields, Inc., a privately-held Nevada corporation (“Green Energy”) and the shareholders of Green Energy, which had caused Green Energy to become our wholly-owned subsidiary. Green Energy was formed on November 23, 2009.

Our principal executive offices are located at 3266 W. Galveston Drive, Suite 101 Apache Junction, Arizona 95120. Our telephone number is 480-288-6530.

On July 22, 2011, the Company, Pershing Gold Ltd (“Pershing”) and Continental Resources Acquisition Sub, Inc., Pershing’s wholly owned subsidiary (“Acquisition Sub”), had entered into an asset purchase agreement the (“Agreement”) pursuant to which Acquisition Sub purchased substantially all of the assets of the Company (the “Asset Sale”) in consideration for (i) shares of Pershing’s common stock (the “Shares”) which was equal to eight (8) Shares for every ten (10) shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding; (ii) the assumption of the outstanding warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock such that Pershing delivered to the holders of the Company’s warrants, warrants to purchase shares of Pershing’s common stock (the “Warrants”) which was equal to one  Warrant to purchase eight (8) shares of Pershing’s common stock for every warrant to purchase ten (10) shares the Company’s common stock outstanding at an exercise price equal to such amount as is required pursuant to the terms of the outstanding warrants, and (iii)  the assumption of the Company’s  2010 Equity Incentive Plan and all options granted and issued thereunder such that Pershing delivered to the Company’s option holders, options (the “Options”) to purchase an aggregate of such number of shares of Pershing’s common stock issuable under Pershing’s equity incentive plan which was equal to one  option to purchase eight (8) shares of Pershing’s common stock for every option to purchase ten (10) shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding with a strike price equal to such amount as is required pursuant to the terms of the outstanding option.  The exercise price of the Warrants and the strike price and Options was determined and certified by an officer of Pershing.  Upon the closing of the Asset Sale, Acquisition Sub had assumed certain liabilities of the Company.  The Asset Sale is intended to be tax-free for federal income tax purposes and constitutes a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

37

Under the terms of the Agreement, Pershing had purchased from the Company substantially all of the Company’s assets, including, but not limited to, 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company’s former wholly-owned subsidiaries (Green Energy Fields, Inc., and ND Energy, Inc.).  After giving effect to the foregoing, Pershing had issued 76,095,214 shares of its common stock, 41,566,999 of its stock warrants, and 2,248,000 of its stock options following the transaction. Consequently, the issuance of 76,095,214 shares of Pershing’s common stock accounted for approximately 67% of the total issued and outstanding stocks of Pershing as of July 22, 2011 and we had become the Parent Company of Pershing.

Under the terms of the Agreement Pershing acquired from the Company:

(i)	state leases and federal unpatented mining claims and other rights to exploration, as owned as of the date hereof; all stock in subsidiaries, membership, joint venture, partnership and similar interests and claims, all royalty rights and claims, and all deposits, prepayments and refunds;
(ii)	all contracts;

(iii) all cash and cash equivalents;

(iv) all accounts or notes receivable held by the Company;

(v) all books and records, including, but not limited to, books of account, ledgers and general, financial and accounting records, price lists, distribution lists, supplier lists, sales material and records;

(vi) all furniture, fixtures, equipment, machinery, tools, office equipment, supplies, computers and other tangible personal property;

(vii) all rights, claims and causes of action against third parties resulting from or relating to the operation of the Company’s business and the assets purchased under the Agreement prior to the date of closing, including without limitation, any rights, claims and causes of actions arising under warranties from vendors, patent or trademark infringement claims, insurance and other third parties and the proceeds thereof; and

(viii) all Intellectual Property, goodwill associated therewith, licenses and sublicenses granted and obtained with respect thereto, and rights thereunder, remedies against past, present, and future infringements thereof, and rights to protection of past, present, and future interests therein under the laws of all jurisdictions

A majority of the stockholders of the Company approved the Agreement by written consent on or about July 21, 2011. There can be no assurance that the transaction will be tax free to any particular stockholder or the ability or timing of receipt of all approvals necessary to liquidate. The Agreement constitutes a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g) and constitutes a plan of liquidation of the Company. The Company is expected to liquidate on or prior to July 1, 2012. Pershing has agreed to file a registration statement under the Securities Act in connection with liquidation of the Company no later than thirty (30) days following the later of the closing date of the Asset Sale or such date that the Company delivers to Pershing its audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011. The Company will subsequently distribute the registered shares to our shareholders as part of its liquidation. Pershing agreed to use its best efforts to cause such registration to be declared effective within twelve months following the closing date of the Asset Sale. Pershing has agreed to pay liquidated damages of 1% per month, up to a maximum of 5%, in the event that Pershing fails to file or is unable to cause the registration statement to be declared effective.

38

Between January 2012 and February 2012, Pershing issued shares of its common stock resulting in the reduction of our ownership interest below 50%.  Accordingly, we no longer have a controlling financial interest in Pershing. Effective February 9, 2012, our ownership interest was reduced to 48.5% and, as of March 31, 2012, our ownership was further reduced to 42.23%. Consequently, we were required to deconsolidate Pershing in accordance with ASC 810-10-40 “Deconsolidation of a Subsidiary” and recorded our retained non-controlling investment in Pershing at fair value at the date of deconsolidation. We have determined that the fair value of the retained non-controlling investment in the former subsidiary is the difference between Pershing’s net assets and non-controlling interest on the date of deconsolidation and thus, we did not record any gain or loss from deconsolidation. After the deconsolidation, as of March 31, 2012, we owned 42.23% of Pershing and accounted such investment under the equity method. As a result, the unaudited consolidated financial statements included the accounts of the Company and its former subsidiary, Pershing, from July 22, 2011 until February 8, 2012.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, the useful life of property and equipment, the fair values of certain promotional contracts and the assumptions used to calculate fair value of options granted and common stock issued for services.

Management believes the following critical accounting policies affect the significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The unaudited consolidated financial statements included the accounts and operating results of the Company and its former subsidiary, Pershing, until February 8, 2012. In the preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company, intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated and net earnings were reduced by the portion of the net earnings of subsidiaries applicable to non-controlling interests.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to investment tax credits, bad debts, income taxes and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management included, but were not limited to, the useful life of property and equipment, the assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation, derivative liability, and debt discount, capitalized mineral rights, asset valuations, and common stock issued for services.

39

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment were carried at cost. The cost of repairs and maintenance was expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition. Depreciation was calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets, generally three to twenty five years.

Mineral Property Acquisition and Exploration Costs

Costs of lease, exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. The Company has chosen to expense all mineral exploration costs as incurred given that it is still in the exploration stage. Once the Company has identified proven and probable reserves in its investigation of its properties and upon development of a plan for operating a mine, it would enter the development stage and capitalize future costs until production is established. When a property reaches the production stage, the related capitalized costs will be amortized, using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable-proven reserves. When the Company has capitalized mineral properties, these properties will be periodically assessed for impairment of value and any diminution in value. To date, the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of any exploration prospects; therefore, all costs are being expensed.

ASC 930-805, states that mineral rights consist of the legal right to explore, extract, and retain at least a portion of the benefits from mineral deposits. Mining assets include mineral rights. Acquired mineral rights are considered tangible assets under ASC 805. ASC 805 requires that mineral rights be recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date. As a result, our direct costs to acquire mineral rights were initially capitalized as tangible assets. Mineral rights include costs associated with acquiring patented and unpatented mining claims. If proven and probable reserves are established for the property and it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed, costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. For mineral rights in which proven and probable reserves have not yet been established, we assess the carrying values for impairment at the end of each reporting period and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

Long-Lived Assets

We review for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable, pursuant to guidance established in ASC 360-10-35-15, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. We recognize an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.

40

Equity Method Investment

We have accounted for the investments in accordance with ASC 970-323 as an equity method investment. Investments in less than 50% interest in the voting securities of the investee company in which we have significant influence are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Investment in equity investee is increased by additional investments and earnings and decreased by dividends and losses. We review such Investment in equity investee for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate a decline in the recoverability of its carrying value.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08 – Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (ASC Topic 350) – Testing of Goodwill for Impairment. This ASU simplifies how entities test goodwill for impairment. The amendments under this ASU permit an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. If an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it would not be required to perform the two-step impairment test for that reporting unit. This ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. This update does not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On December 31, 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities”, which requires new disclosures about balance sheet offsetting and related arrangements. For derivatives and financial assets and liabilities, the ASU requires disclosure of gross asset and liability amounts, amounts offset on the balance sheet, and amounts subject to the offsetting requirements but not offset on the balance sheet. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that these updates will have on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. This update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our business began on November 23, 2009. We are still in our exploration stage and have generated no revenues to date. As a result of the deconsolidation of Pershing on February 9, 2012, the unaudited consolidated financial statements included the accounts of the Company and our former subsidiary, Pershing, from July 22, 2011 until February 8, 2012.

Three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to three months ended March 31, 2011

We incurred operating expenses of $2,228,440 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to $5,386,365 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The overall decrease of $3,157,925 in operating expenses is primarily attributable to the impairment of mining rights of $444,200 and impairment of goodwill during the prior period as compared to none during the three months ended March 31, 2012. These expenses primarily consisted of general expenses, exploration costs, compensation, consulting and professional fees incurred in connection with the day to day operation of our business and the preparation and filing of our financial disclosure reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Operating expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2012, includes operating expenses incurred by Pershing from January 1, 2012 to February 8, 2012. We expect operating expenses to decrease for the remainder of our current fiscal year due to the deconsolidation of our former subsidiary, Pershing, on February 9, 2012. The operating expenses consisted of the following:

	For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012		For the Three months Ended March 31, 2011
Exploration costs	$	690,483	$	64,586
Professional fees		171,961		99,963
Advertising and marketing		-		30,485
Compensation and related taxes		697,890		189,253
Consulting fees		529,824		1,199,486
Impairment of goodwill		-		3,065,014
Impairment of mineral rights		-		444,200
Rent		3,000		22,715
Travel  and related expenses		12,747		74,182
Depreciation		80,518		2,962
Other general and administrative		42,017		193,519
Total	$	2,228,440	$	5,386,365

• Exploration costs:  For the three months ended March 31, 2012, exploration costs were $690,483, an increase of $625,897, as compared to $64,586 during the three months ended March 31, 2011, which includes costs of lease, exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties. The increase is primarily attributable to exploration costs incurred for the Red Rock Mineral Property, the North Battle Mountain Mineral Prospect, and Relief Canyon Mine by our former subsidiary, Pershing, during the three months ended March 31, 2012. The Company has chosen to expense all mineral exploration costs as incurred given that it is still in the exploration stage.

• Professional fees: For the three months ended March 31, 2012, professional fees were $171,961 which includes fees incurred for audits and legal fees related to public company filing requirements compared to $99,963 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The overall increase of $71,998 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 in professional fees is primarily attributable to an increase in accounting, auditing and legal fees related to public company filing requirements and  due to the fact that we were in our early stages of our operations during the prior period. Additionally, we paid management fee of $11,395 during the three months ended March 31, 2012 to MJI Resource Management Corp. for the purpose of performing management, operations, legal, accounting, and resource location services.

42

• Compensation expense and related taxes: Compensation expense includes salaries and stock-based compensation to our employees. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, compensation expense and related taxes were $697,890 as compared to $189,253 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. This includes the recognition of stock-based compensation expense of $181,698 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 which is attributable to stock options granted by Pershing to its officers and employees. The overall increase in compensation of $508,637 during the three months period ended is also primarily attributable to the increase in full time employees associated with our former majority owned subsidiary, Pershing.

• Consulting fees: For the three months ended March 31, 2012, we incurred consulting fees of $529,824 as compared to $1,199,486 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The overall decrease in consulting fees of $669,662 during the three months ended March 31, 2012 is primarily attributable to the decrease in issuance of our common stock and stock warrants for services rendered to consultants as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease is also primarily attributable to a decrease in investor relations expense of approximately $217,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

• Rent: For the three months ended March 31, 2012, we incurred rent of $3,000 as compared to $22,715 during the three months ended March 31, 2011, which were primarily attributable to rental fees of our principal executive offices in Apache Junction, Arizona. The decrease in rent expense of $19,715, during the three months periods, is primarily attributable to the decrease of our monthly office rent in October 2011.

• Travel and related expenses: Travel expenses decreased to $12,747 during the three months period March 31, 2012, from $74,182 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 due to the decrease in conference campaign and business development related travel.

• Depreciation expense: For the three months ended March 31, 2012, depreciation expense was $80,518 as compared to $2,962 for the three months prior period. The overall increase in depreciation expense of $77,556 during the three months ended March 31, 2012, is primarily attributable due to the increase in depreciation of our property and equipment as a result of the acquisition of the Relief Canyon Mine by our former subsidiary, Pershing.

• Impairment of mineral rights: Impairment of mineral rights was $0 and $444,200 for three months ended March 31, 2012 and for the fiscal three months ended March 31, 2011, respectively. We recognized an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. Management has performed an impairment analysis as of March 31, 2011 and determined such cost is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

• Impairment of goodwill: For the fiscal three months ended March 31, 2011, we recorded an impairment of goodwill of $3,065,014 associated with the acquisition of Secure Energy. We recognize an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Secure Energy had not generated future cash flows and revenues since its inception, had incurred losses and cash used in operations. Accordingly we deemed the acquired goodwill to be impaired and wrote-off the goodwill on the acquisition date. We have no comparable expense during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

43

• Other general and administrative expenses: For the three months ended March 31, 2012 other general and administrative expenses were $42,017, as compared to $193,519 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, which includes postage, general insurance, automobile, office supplies, utilities and office expenses. The overall decrease in general and administrative expenses of $151,502 during the three months ended March 31, 2012,  is primarily attributable due to the decrease in postage, general insurance, automobile, office supplies, utilities and office expenses as a result of the deconsolidation of our former majority owned subsidiary, Pershing on February 9, 2012.

Operating Loss from Continuing Operations

We reported operating loss from continuing operations of $2,228,440 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, respectively as compared to operating loss from continuing operations of $5,386,365 for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Other Income (Expenses)

Total other expense was $8,502,497 and $18,540 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and for the three months ended March 31, 2011, respectively. The increase is primarily attributable to:

● $405,752 and $18,540 in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and  2011, respectively. Such increase is primarily attributable to the amortization of debt discounts and deferred financing cost on promissory notes of $335,794 and interest on notes payable and convertible promissory notes issued by our former majority owned subsidiary, Pershing.

● $8,096,745 share of loss of equity method investee. Effective February 9, 2012, our ownership interest in Pershing was reduced to 48.5% and has further decreased to 42.23% as of March 31, 2012. Consequently, on February 9, 2012 we were required to deconsolidate Pershing. After the deconsolidation, as of March 31, 2012, we owned 42.23% of Pershing and accounted such investment under the equity method.

Discontinued Operations

In September 2011, our majority owned subsidiary, Pershing, decided to discontinue its sports and entertainment business. As a result, Pershing will no longer be engaged in or pursue agreements with artists or athletes for sports and entertainment promotion and events, and will focus its activities exclusively on its new business segment, gold exploration as a junior exploration company. On September 1, 2011, Pershing disposed its Empire Sports & Entertainment Co. (“Empire”) subsidiary pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) by and between Pershing, Empire and Concert International Inc. (“CII”).

The following table sets forth for the period from January 1, 2012 to February 8, 2012 (the date of deconsolidation), indicated selected financial data of Pershing's discontinued operations of its sports and entertainment business.

Net loss

We reported a net loss attributable to Continental Resources Group, Inc. of $9,547,972 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to $4,657,446 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. We reported net loss attributable to non-controlling interest of $1,239,838 and $747,459 during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and for the three months ended March 31, 2011, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At March 31, 2012, we had a cash balance of $3,885 and working capital deficit of $554,130. We have been funding our operations though the issuance of notes payable and sale of units consisting of shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock for operating capital purposes.  Our balance sheet at March 31, 2012 reflected due to equity method investee of $517,949 which is short-term in nature and non-interest bearing.

Our consolidated financial statements from inception (November 23, 2009) through March 31, 2012 reported no revenues which is not sufficient to fund our operating expenses.  We estimate that based on current plans and assumptions, that our available cash will not be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements under our present operating expectations for 12 months. We presently have no other alternative source of working capital. We do not have revenues to support our daily operations. We have raised significant additional capital to fund our future operating expenses, pay our obligations, and grow our Company. We do not anticipate we will be profitable in 2012.  Therefore our future operations will be dependent on our ability to secure additional financing.  Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. The trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will likely be required to curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations.

Operating activities

Net cash flows used in operating activities for the for the three months ended March 31, 2012 amounted to $1,701,559 and was primarily attributable to our net loss attributable to Continental Resources Group, Inc. of $9,547,972, offset by depreciation of $80,518, amortization of debt discount and deferred financing cost of $335,794, stock-based compensation of $301,563,  share of loss of equity method investee of $8,096,745, total changes in assets and liabilities of $271,631 and add back non-controlling interest of $1,239,838. This change in assets and liabilities is primarily attributable to an increase in prepaid expenses of $84,904, accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $186,041offset by decrease in other receivables of $99,908 and deposits of $61,050.

Net cash flows used in operating activities for the for the fiscal three months ended March 31, 2011 amounted to $1,366,606and was primarily attributable to our net loss of $4,657,446, offset by depreciation of $2,962, impairment of mining claims of $444,200, impairment of goodwill of $3,065,014, amortization of debt discount of $15,000, amortization of prepaid services of $741,206, common stock issued for services of $1,400,000 and stock-based compensation of $64,050 and add-back of total changes in assets and liabilities of $294,133 and non-controlling interest of $747,459. This change in assets and liabilities is primarily attributable to an increase in prepaid expenses of $355,470, deposits of $35,000 and accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $95,920.

45

Investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $2,519,921 and represented cash decrease due to deconsolidation of Pershing of $3,033,375 and the purchase of property and equipment of $13,166 offset by collection on note receivable of $500,000 and proceeds received from disposal of assets of $26,620.

Net cash used in investing activities for the fiscal three months ended March 31, 2011 was $64,198 and represented acquisition of Secure Energy LLC of $59,959 and the purchase of property and equipment of $4,239.

Financing activities

Net cash flows provided by financing activities were $530,248 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. We received net proceeds from net proceeds from sales of Pershing’s common stock of $569,797 offset by payment on note payable of $39,549.

Net cash flows provided by financing activities was $14,282,601 for the fiscal three months ended March 31, 2011. We received net proceeds from the sale of units consisting of shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock of $14,332,601 offset by repayment of convertible promissory note of $50,000.

Contractual Obligations

We have certain fixed contractual obligations and commitments that include future estimated payments. Changes in our business needs, cancellation provisions, changing interest rates, and other factors may result in actual payments differing from the estimates. We cannot provide certainty regarding the timing and amounts of payments. We have presented below a summary of the most significant assumptions used in our determination of amounts presented in the tables, in order to assist in the review of this information within the context of our consolidated financial position, results of operation, and cash flows.

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations as of March 31, 2012, and the effect these obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flows in future periods:

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 With respect to the quarterly period ended March 31, 2012, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s management has concluded that certain disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2012 due to the Company’s limited internal resources and lack of ability to have multiple levels of transaction review. However, to the extent possible, we will implement procedures to assure that the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions will be performed by separate individuals. We believe that the foregoing steps will remediate the significant deficiency identified above, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these steps and make any changes that our management deems appropriate.

Management is in the process of determining how best to change our current system and implement a more effective system to insure that information required to be disclosed in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q has been recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately. Our management acknowledges the existence of this problem, and intends to developed procedures to address them to the extent possible given limitations in financial and manpower resources. While management is working on a plan, no assurance can be made at this point that the implementation of such controls and procedures will be completed in a timely manner or that they will be adequate once implemented.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS

Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, performed an evaluation to determine whether any change in our internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the three month period ended March 31, 2012. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and our CFO concluded that no change occurred in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2012, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.
