The Company and Significant Accounting Policies:

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the management of New Jersey Mining Company (the Company) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim consolidated financial statements have been included.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company's financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company's financial position and results of operations. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2014.

For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 included in Amended Form 10 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 2, 2014.

Principles of Consolidation

At September 30, 2014, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the accounts of our majority owned New Jersey Mill Joint Venture, and the accounts of GF&H, an entity in which New Jersey Mining has two thirds of the ownership. Intercompany items and transactions between companies included in the consolidation are eliminated.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2014 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2014-10 (“the ASU”). This update changes the requirements for disclosures as it relates to exploration stage entities. The ASU specifies that the ‘inception–to-date’ information is no longer required to be presented in the financial statements of an exploration stage entity. The amendments in the ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and interim periods therein, with early application permitted for any financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company has elected to apply the amendments as of June 30, 2014.

2.

Related Parties

In August 2012 the Company entered into a note by Mine Systems Design (MSD) to purchase property for $223,807 at 12% interest to be paid in 60 monthly payments. At September 30, 2014 the remaining amount due was $189,549 and $18,367 has been paid in interest during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

3.

Joint Ventures

For joint ventures where the Company holds more than 50% of the voting interest and has significant influence, the joint venture is consolidated with the presentation of non-controlling interest. For joint ventures in which the Company does not have joint control or significant influence, the cost method is used. For those joint ventures in which there is joint control between the parties, and the Company has significant influence, the equity method is utilized.

6

At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company’s percentage ownership and method of accounting for each joint venture is as follows:

	September 30, 2014			December 31, 2013
Joint Venture	% Ownership	Significant Influence?	Accounting Method	% Ownership	Significant Influence?	Accounting Method
New Jersey Mill Joint Venture(“NJMJV”)	66%	Yes	Consolidated	66%	Yes	Consolidated
Golden Chest LLC Joint Venture (“GC”)	48%	No	Cost	48%	No	Cost
GF&H Company (“GF&H”)	66 2/3%	Yes	Consolidated

New Jersey Mill Joint Venture Agreement

In June of 2012 Crescent Silver (holds noncontrolling interest in NJMJV) completed its buy-in for 35% of the Mill JV with a cumulative $3.2 million contribution to bring the capacity of the mill to 15 tonnes/hr. As of September 30, 2014, an account receivable existed with Crescent for $68,591 for monthly operating costs and lease payments.

GF&H Company

In July the Company purchased 66 2/3% of the outstanding stock in GF&H Company which owns 347 acres in the vicinity of the Company’s Golden Chest property in Murray.

Golden Chest LLC Joint Venture

On September 3, 2013 the GC signed a lease agreement with Juniper Resources, LLC (Juniper) of Boise, Idaho for a defined portion of the Golden Chest mine property known as the Skookum Shoot (a 400 meter strike length along the Idaho vein below the No. 3 Level). The lease with Juniper calls for an initial payment of $50,000 to GC, which was received in 2013, and a work requirement of 1,500 to 3,000 meters of core drilling which has also been completed. Juniper signed the lease and made a payment of $200,000 to GC at the end of November 2013. Juniper is required to make land payments of $125,000 per quarter on the promissory note on behalf of GC which it also has done. Additionally, Juniper will pay a 2% net smelter royalty to GC on all gold production from the leased area with the $250,000 initial payments treated as an advance on this royalty. The lease has a term of 39 months.

4.

Non-Controlling Interest in Mill JV

Crescent’s non-controlling interest in NJMJV represents its investment in the Joint Venture less any losses associated with their share. Its investment changed as follows from December 31, 2013 to September 30, 2014:

Balance January 1, 2014	$	3,176,620
Disposal of ball mill		(3,379)
Capital lease paid by non-controlling interest		26,365
Balance September 30, 2014	$	3,199,606

5.

Earnings per Share

For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014, the effect of the Company's potential issuance of shares from the exercise of 21,200,000 outstanding warrants and 2,250,000 options to purchase common stock would have been anti-dilutive. No warrants or options were outstanding at September 30, 2013.  Accordingly, only basic net loss per share has been presented for both periods presented.

Cautionary Statement about Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain statements that may be deemed to be "forward-looking statements." All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Form 10-Q that address activities, events or developments that our management expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include discussion of such matters as:

Forward-looking statements also typically include words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "potential," "could" or similar words suggesting future outcomes. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate in the circumstances. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, including such factors as the volatility and level of metal prices, currency exchange rate fluctuations, uncertainties in cash flow, expected acquisition benefits, exploration mining and operating risks, competition, litigation, environmental matters, the potential impact of government regulations, and other matters related to the mining industry, many of which are beyond our control.

The Company is under no duty to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this report. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

Plan of Operation

As a result of United Silver (now Crescent Silver LLC) shutting down the Crescent Mine in 2012, and the Crescent Mine appearing uneconomic with lower silver prices, the Company adjusted its business plan in order to focus on contract milling and potential cash flow. The exploration aspect of the Company is focused on performing its own exploration and evaluation of near-term production opportunities and/or forming joint ventures with partners who will contribute cash to earn their interest. The Company is also conducting exploration in the Gold Belt of the Coeur d’Alene Mining District as well as at the McKinley Project near Riggins, Idaho, and the Eastern Star Property in the Elk City area.

Mine development underway at the Golden Chest-During the quarter, Juniper Resources advanced development at the Golden Chest Mine. Juniper has completed all site preparation and facilities at the Golden Chest, collared the portal and continued underground development, with current development underway. The Company is anticipating mill feed from the Golden Chest Mine and processing to begin at the New Jersey Mill in early December. In addition to our agreement with Juniper Resources, our strategy includes developing follow-on projects to the Skookum Lease by finding and developing ore reserves of significant quality and quantity to justify investment in mining - with utilization of strategic partnerships, our in-house expertise, and ownership of the New Jersey Mill as the primary goal. The Company’s primary focus is on gold with silver and base metals of secondary emphasis. When applicable, the Company receives revenue for providing mineral processing, and related services from its joint venture partners, as well as management fees. The Golden Chest project is a joint venture agreement with Marathon Gold USA (MUSA). The Company has 48% ownership and is the Operator. In September 2013, Golden Chest LLC entered into a 39-month Mining Lease with Juniper, granting it exclusive rights to develop and mine the Skookum Shoot portion of the property.

The Company purchased a controlling interest in GF&H, a private company that holds 374 acres of patented mining claims near the Golden Chest Mine – for $100,000. Two of the claims are located just south of the Golden Chest Mine and on-strike with the Idaho Fault. The purchase was made for the strategic location and mineral potential of the claims, as well as having timber harvesting potential and location within and near USFS and BLM land.

Upgrades made at the New Jersey Mill-Significant upgrades were made at the New Jersey Mill, with the gravity circuit completed and video monitoring equipment installed, with additional automation features planned. The New Jersey mill is currently preparing to process ore from the Golden Chest for the next 18 to 24 months at a rate of 9,000 metric tonnes per month. The adjacent tailings facility was expanded to allow for increased storage capacity. The Company also received an award from the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality for being a “Pollution Prevention Champion” for its utilization of paste tailings technology which has led to a decrease in water usage by up to 50 million gallons per year when in full operation.

A large percentage of our exploration in 2014 is being conducted at the McKinley Project and in the Elk City area. Other exploration properties include the Toboggan and the Coleman, however limited work was conducted at these properties. At the Golden Chest, the Company drilled two exploration holes outside of the Juniper lease area in late 2013 and continues to conduct further evaluation of the areas located outside the Skookum Lease and nearby properties. At the McKinley, both surface and underground mapping was conducted and a 19-hole drill program conducted with a small-space drill. In the Elk City area a 2,900-foot trenching program was conducted with additional claims staked and extensive sampling program conducted.

The Toboggan Project is a group of prospects in the Murray, Idaho District that contain gold and silver telluride minerals. The Toboggan Project was being explored by Newmont North America Exploration Limited under a joint venture agreement. Newmont did not complete their earn-in by March 20, 2011 and the joint venture agreement was terminated. Newmont returned all the unpatented claims held by the venture to the Company. The Company is searching for a new joint venture partner to continue exploration of the favorable gold prospects examined by Newmont. During the third quarter of 2012 some of the claims that form part of the Toboggan Project were leased to a subsidiary of Hecla Mining Co. At the Coleman underground mine, future plans are to evaluate and possibly conduct further drilling to try and locate higher-grade mineralized material.

Changes in Financial Condition

The Company maintains an adequate cash balance by increasing or decreasing its exploration expenditures as limited by availability of cash from operations or from financing activities. The cash balance at the end of the third quarter of 2014 was $726,267. The cash balance increased from $214,914 at the end of the previous quarter due to funding from a private placement.

Results of Operations

There has been no significant Revenue during 2014 or 2013. The net loss for the third quarter of 2014 was $371,632 compared to a loss of $408,925 for the second quarter of 2013. The net loss decrease for the third quarter of 2014 compared to the loss for the corresponding quarter in 2013 was due to a write down of mineral property in 2013.

The Company plans to process ore from the Golden Chest Skookum project for Juniper Resources which should commence later in 2014. The Company has no additional plans for production as of the third quarter of 2014, however it is hopeful its exploration activities result in mill feed for the New Jersey Mill in the future.

The amount of money to be spent on exploration at the Company’s mines and prospects depends primarily on contributions of our joint venture partners, fundraising, and cash flow from the mill.

During the third quarter of 2013, an option agreement to enter a mining lease was signed by Golden Chest LLC with Juniper Resources whereby Juniper conducted confirmatory drilling on a defined portion of the Golden Chest property. Juniper exercised the mining lease and has made certain payments to Golden Chest LLC (including property payments) thus relieving the Company from making its share of these payments. In addition, the Company will share in a 2% Net Smelter Return and the Company will likely gain income from processing ore from the lessor at the New Jersey mill. The development of a portal commenced at the Golden Chest in June, 2014.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, Plant, and Equipment increased as of September 30, 2014, compared to December 31, 2013 because of the construction and installation of a new gravity concentrator at the mill, Crescent is not participating in this expansion. Additionally land has purchased near Elk City, Idaho and two thirds of an interest in GF&H which has land near Murray Idaho has been purchased.

Accounts Payable

Accounts payable have increased as of September 30, 2014, compared to December 31, 2013 because of increased activity in exploration and at the mill.

11

Accrued Payroll and Related Payroll Expenses

Accrued payroll and related payroll expenses increased as of September 30, 2014, compared to December 31, 2013 because additional employees have been added as activity has increased in exploration and at the mill.

Obligation under Capital Lease and Notes Payable

Obligations under capital lease and notes payable decreased as of September 30, 2013 compared to December 31, 2013 because of completion of the payment schedule on a thickener and floatation cell lease for the mill and sale of the Companies core drill in addition to regular note payments.

Sales of Gold

Sales of Gold income decreased for the periods ended September 30, 2014, compared to the comparable periods last year because the remaining inventory was liquidated in 2013.

Joint Venture Management Fee Income

Joint Venture management income decreased for the periods ended September 30, 2014, compared to the comparable periods last year because of a lack of current activity at the Golden Chest under the Joint Venture agreement for which the Company was paid a management fee.

Milling Costs

Milling costs increased for the periods ended September 30, 2014 compared to the comparable periods last year because of increased activity at the mill in preparation for upcoming processing activity.

Write down of Mineral Property

Write down of mineral property decreased for the periods ended September 30, 2014 compared to the comparable periods last year because last year’s write down of the Coleman mineral property was a non-routine adjustment.

Exploration Expense

Exploration expense increased for the periods ended September 30, 2014 compared to the comparable periods last year because of resumed activities by the company including exploration activities and the McKinley and Eastern Star properties.

(Gain) Loss on Sale of Equipment

Gain on Sale of Equipment decreased in 2014 compared to 2013 because a core drill that was sold in 2013 recorded a gain whereas a core drill sold in 2014 resulted in a loss.

General and Administrative Expense

General and Administrative expense increased for the periods ended September 30, 2014 compared to the comparable periods last year because of resumed operations by the company following a period of relative dormancy in 2013.

Royalties and Other Income

Royalties and other income decreased for the periods ended September 30, 2014 compared to the comparable periods last year because last year’s income included a significant advanced royalty payment from Juniper Resources in relation to the Golden Chest Property.

Interest Expense

Interest Expense decreased for the periods ended September 30, 2014 compared to the comparable periods last year because some interest paid was capitalized to the mill as part of the Mill expansion.

Changes in Equity in Loss and Contributions to Golden Chest LLC

Equity in loss of Golden Chest LLC decreased in 2014 compared to the comparable periods of 2013 because of less activity and fewer cash calls occurring at the Golden Chest. The activity this year at the Golden Chest has been conducted by the operators of the Juniper lease.

 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

At September 30, 2014, our President who also serves as our Chief Accounting Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), which disclosure controls and procedures are designed to insure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within required time periods specified by the Securities & Exchange Commission rules and forms.

Based upon that evaluation, it was concluded that our disclosure controls were effective as of September 30, 2014, to ensure timely reporting with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Specifically, the Company’s corporate governance and disclosure controls and procedures provided reasonable assurance that required reports were timely and accurately reported in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

The President and Principal Accounting Officer conducted evaluations of our internal controls over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. There was no material change in internal control over financial reporting in the quarter ended September 30, 2014.

3.             Joint Ventures

For joint ventures where the Company holds more than 50% of the voting interest and has significant influence, the joint venture is consolidated with the presentation of non-controlling interest. For joint ventures in which the Company does not have joint control or significant influence, the cost method is used. For those joint ventures in which there is joint control between the parties, and the Company has significant influence, the equity method is utilized.

At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company’s percentage ownership and method of accounting for each joint venture is as follows:

	September 30, 2014			December 31, 2013
Joint Venture	% Ownership	Significant Influence?	Accounting Method	% Ownership	Significant Influence?	Accounting Method
New Jersey Mill Joint Venture(“NJMJV”)	66%	Yes	Consolidated	66%	Yes	Consolidated

GF&H Company (“GF&H”)	66.66%	Yes	Consolidated

New Jersey Mill Joint Venture Agreement

In June of 2012 Crescent Silver (holds noncontrolling interest in NJMJV) completed its buy-in for 35% of the Mill JV with a cumulative $3.2 million contribution to bring the capacity of the mill to 15 tonnes/hr. As of September 30, 2014, an account receivable existed with Crescent for $68,591 for monthly operating costs and lease payments.

GF&H Company

In July the Company purchased 66 2/3% of the outstanding stock in GF&H Company which owns 347 acres in the vicinity of the Company’s Golden Chest property in Murray.

Golden Chest LLC Joint Venture

On September 3, 2013 the GC signed a lease agreement with Juniper Resources, LLC (Juniper) of Boise, Idaho for a defined portion of the Golden Chest mine property known as the Skookum Shoot (a 400 meter strike length along the Idaho vein below the No. 3 Level). The lease with Juniper calls for an initial payment of $50,000 to GC, which was received in 2013, and a work requirement of 1,500 to 3,000 meters of core drilling which has also been completed. Juniper signed the lease and made a payment of $200,000 to GC at the end of November 2013. Juniper is required to make land payments of $125,000 per quarter on the promissory note on behalf of GC which it also has done. Additionally, Juniper will pay a 2% net smelter royalty to GC on all gold production from the leased area with the $250,000 initial payments treated as an advance on this royalty. The lease has a term of 39 months.

1. The Company and Significant Accounting Policies:

1.             The Company and Significant Accounting Policies:

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the management of New Jersey Mining Company (the Company) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim consolidated financial statements have been included.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company's financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company's financial position and results of operations. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2014.

For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 included in Amended Form 10 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 2, 2014.

Principles of Consolidation

At September 30, 2014, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the accounts of our majority owned New Jersey Mill Joint Venture, and the accounts of GF&H, an entity in which New Jersey Mining has two thirds of the ownership. Intercompany items and transactions between companies included in the consolidation are eliminated.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2014 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2014-10 (“the ASU”). This update changes the requirements for disclosures as it relates to exploration stage entities. The ASU specifies that the ‘inception–to-date’ information is no longer required to be presented in the financial statements of an exploration stage entity. The amendments in the ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and interim periods therein, with early application permitted for any financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company has elected to apply the amendments as of June 30, 2014.
