Item 2.06 Material Impairments As part of its ongoing business strategy, PYR Energy Corporation (the "Company") has been attempting to consolidate and increase its working interest participation in core projects. As a result of these efforts, as of June 10, 2005, the Company has decided to limit capital expenditures on certain early stage projects, such as our two joint ventures in southern Alberta, Canada. These joint ventures were intended to employ certain production equipment to limit water production and increase shallow gas production rates. At this point, management has decided to limit future expenditures in Canada and apply the capital to our core projects in the Gulf Coast, East Texas, and the Rocky Mountains. In accordance with US GAAP, the Company will write down its initial investments in Canada as a non-cash charge to earnings of approximately $560,000 during its 3rd quarter, ended May 31, 2005.
