PART I

Item 1. Business

General

AuraSource, Inc. (“AuraSource” or “Company”) was incorporated on March 15, 1990. We have divided our activities into two divisions: AuraMetal and AuraMoto.

AuraMetal^TM is focused on the development and production of environmentally friendly and cost-effective beneficiation process for complex ore, tailings and slimes materials as industrial application solutions. AuraSource’s core technology includes physical separation, hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgy processes. We have developed seven patented technologies: 1) ultrafine grinding and 2) ultrafine separation. To date, we have not had any sustainable projects. As such, there can be no assurances that our efforts towards this line of business will succeed.

AuraMoto^TM is focused on sourcing various vendors and customers in the automotive industry. We entered into the industry due to our various international sourcing contacts. We have been requested from various parties to source vendors and customers in the automotive industry. This business line is still in development. As this is a new enterprise for the Company, there can be no assurances that our efforts towards this line of business will succeed.

-2-

On February 15, 2012, we entered into an agreement with Gulf Coast Holdings, LLC (“GCH”) to reserve export ready one million tons of 64% Fe higher content iron ore and 13 million of 45% grade lower content iron ore, and two million tons of manganese ore. We agreed to issue 16 million shares of our common stock to GCH or its assigns (“Mineral Deposit Shares”). The Mineral Deposit Shares shall vest and be delivered as follows; five million immediately, 11 million upon the successful completion of the first customer order of total revenue over $5 million. Success shall be defined as customer acceptance of order and final payment. To the extent a successful order does not occur, the unvested Mineral Deposit Shares shall be returned to our treasury and cancelled. Additionally, we entered into an agreement with Gulf Coast Mining Group, LLC (“GCM”) to purchase (i) higher content iron ore, lower content iron ore and manganese ore (collectively, the “Minerals”) which will be delivered loose in bulk modified FOB. We entered into an agreement with GCH appointing GCH as the exclusive North American licensee for use and exploitation of our technology as it relates to applications involving precious metals in exchange for royalty payments of 5% of gross revenues. We were not successful in this endeavor.

On June 19, 2018, the Company, GCH, GCM and HKM agreed to terminate all past agreements between the parties referenced above (“Release”). Under the terms of the Release, the Company will receive 20,000 tons of Iron Duke ore with equivalent chemical composition as that has been delivered in the past (“Payment”). Payment shall be set aside in a separate pile for AuraSource retrieval (the “Pick up”). Upon 30 days advanced written notice, AuraSource shall be allowed access to retrieve the Payment. Payment shall be removed from the ground prior and put in staging area by the end of the 30 days’ notice. The Company shall be responsible for all logistics and the costs associated therewith for loading and transporting the subject Payment. Such ore shall be picked up by the Company within 270 days from the date of execution of this Agreement. If the Company does not pick up the ore within the 270 days, the Company will lose the rights to the ore. The $363,077 (“Net Amount Owed”), which constitutes all deposits made by the Company, less all amounts owed by the Company under the Past Agreements shall be forgiven. The 16 million shares referenced above shall be cancelled.

AuraMetal Business

AuraSource, Inc. developed the AuraMetal process based on its grinding and separation technologies. This technology separates commercially valuable minerals from other ores both economically and efficiently. It has a broad application in metal beneficiation such as hematite which cannot be concentrated by magnetic separation alone. AuraMetal process improves grade of ore at low cost and with minimal pollution. It is suitable for a multitude of low grade iron ore beneficiation. To date we have only pilot tested these processes. There can be no assurance that these processes will work on an industrialized scale.

AuraSource’s Key Technology

Ultrafine Grinding

Ultrafine grinding utilizes a fluid shock wave to grind slurry materials into ultrafine scale. The shock wave is generated when pressurized slurry (5-30 magapascal (Mpa)) goes through the grinding chamber. The shock wave carries energy and creates shear, collision and cavitation effects which cause particles in the slurry to reduce to an ultrafine size. As a result, when used in ore grinding, the ore can be pulverized and its fluidity improved.

-3-

Ultrafine Separation

Ultrafine separation separates different size particles with different densities in the slurry. The minimum particle size for conventional jigging and heavy media cycloning is 0.2 mm which makes it difficult to remove inorganic minerals. The settling velocity of particles in the slurry becomes very low under normal gravity when particles are fine. Particles settling may even stop due to interaction between particles and disturbance caused by other ultrafine particles in the slurry. Therefore, conventional separation equipment based on gravity is not effective. Our technology enables particles separation by applying 10-100 gravity which allows impurities and unwanted substances to be removed.

There can be no assurance we will be able to carry out our plans for our technology. Our ability to pursue this strategy is subject to the availability of additional capital and further development of our technology. We will also need to finance the cost of effectively protecting our intellectual property rights in the US and abroad where we intend to market our technology and products.

Competition

The mineral property exploration and development business, in general, is intensively competitive and there is not any assurance that even if commercial quantities of ore are discovered, a ready market will exist for sale of same. Numerous factors beyond the Company’s control may affect the marketability of any substances discovered. These factors include market fluctuations; the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets and processing equipment; and government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of mineral and environmental protection. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may make it difficult for the Company to receive an adequate return on investment.

The Company competes with many companies possessing greater financial resources and technical facilities for the acquisition of mineral concessions, claims, leases and other mineral interests as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees

Patent and Trademarks

The Company currently relies on patents, unregistered trademarks, and confidentiality of trade secrets. Our ability to compete effectively will depend on our success in protecting our proprietary technology, both in the US and abroad. There are numerous patents or patent applications relating to HCF technology. We have filed for patent protection and taken the steps required to obtain international patent protection. Currently, we have received seven patents for our proprietary ultrafine grinding and separation technologies, from the State Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China.

No assurance can be given that any patents relating to the AuraMetal technology will be issued by the US or any foreign patent offices. Further, no assurance can be given that we will receive any patents in the future based on the continued development of the technology, or that the technology patent protection within and/or outside of the US will be sufficient to deter others, legally or otherwise, from developing or marketing competitive products utilizing our technology. If patent protection is not available for our technology, we plan to treat it as a trade secret. There can be no assurance we will be successful in this regard.

-4-

In addition to seeking patent protection, we will rely on trade secrets, know-how and continuing technological advancement to seek to achieve and thereafter maintain a competitive advantage in the HCF market. Although we have entered into or intend to enter into confidentiality and invention agreements with our employees, consultants and advisors, no assurance can be given that such agreements will be honored or that we will be able to effectively protect our rights to our unpatented trade secrets and know-how. Moreover, no assurance can be given that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information and techniques or otherwise gain access to our trade secrets and know-how.

Employees

The Company currently has 4 full and part time employees and consultants. The Company engages the services of independent consultants to assist it with management and business development. We plan to engage additional full-time employees as our business expands.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following important factors, and the important factors described elsewhere in this report or in our other filings with the SEC, could affect (and in some cases have affected) our results and could cause our results to be materially different from estimates or expectations. Other risks and uncertainties may also affect our results or operations adversely. The following and these other risks could materially and adversely affect our business, operations, results or financial condition.

Risks Related to the Company

We have a history of operating losses and we may never achieve or maintain profitability.

We have a limited operating history upon which investors may rely to evaluate our prospects and have only a preliminary business plan upon which investors may consider to evaluate our prospects. Such prospects must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, delays and complications associated with a business that seeks to commence more significant revenue operations. We have a history of incurring losses from operations. As of March 31, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of $16,317,490. We expect to incur operating losses until such time, if ever, as we achieve sufficient levels of revenue from operations. We anticipate our existing cash and equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our business needs. Our ability to achieve profitability will depend on our obtaining additional capital, entering into satisfactory agreements with strategic partners, acquiring additional technology and finding customers for such technology. There can be no assurance we will ever generate revenues or achieve profitability. Accordingly, we cannot predict the extent of future losses and the time required to achieve profitability, if ever.

Investors may lose all of their investment in us.

Investment in us involves a high degree of risk. Investors may never recoup all or part of or realized any return on their investment. Accordingly, investors may lose all of their investment and must be prepared to do so.

We will need additional financing.

Our cash requirements may vary materially from those now planned depending on numerous factors, including our ability to obtain new technology, finding customers to use such technology and competition. We may not have sufficient funds to institute our business plan set forth in this report. We therefore would need to raise additional funds to finance our capital requirements through new financings to achieve the level of operations we anticipate. Such financings could include equity financing, which may be dilutive to stockholders, or debt financing, which would likely restrict our ability to borrow from other sources. In addition, such securities may contain rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the rights of our current stockholders. We do not have any commitments for additional financing. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available on terms attractive to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to curtail our development our business plan and/or otherwise materially curtail or reduce our operations. Alternatively, we may be forced to sell or dispose of our right or assets. Any inability to raise adequate funds on commercially viable terms could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operation and financial condition.

-6-

Metals and mineral prices are subject to dramatic and unpredictable fluctuations.

The market prices of precious metals and other minerals are volatile and cannot be controlled. If the prices of precious metals and other minerals drop significantly, the economic prospects of the Company’s operating mines and projects could be significantly reduced or rendered uneconomic. There is no assurance that even if commercial quantities of ore are discovered, a profitable market may exist for the sale of same. Mineral prices have fluctuated widely, particularly in recent years. The marketability of minerals is also affected by numerous other factors beyond the control of the Company, including government regulations relating to royalties, allowable production and importing and exporting of minerals, the effect of which cannot be accurately predicted.

Current global financial conditions.

In recent years, global financial markets have experienced increased volatility and global financial conditions have been subject to increased instability. These had a profound impact on the global economy. Many industries, including the mining sector, were impacted by these market conditions. Some of the key impacts of financial market turmoil include contraction in credit markets resulting in a widening of credit risk, devaluations and high volatility in global equity, commodity, foreign exchange and precious metal markets and a lack of market liquidity. These factors may impact the ability of the Company to obtain equity or debt financing and, if available, to obtain such financing on terms favorable to the Company. If these increased levels of volatility and market turmoil continue, the Company’s operations and planned growth could be adversely impacted and the trading price of the securities of the Company may be adversely affected.

The Company has had no production history and does not know if it will generate revenues in the future.

The Company has no significant history of producing minerals. The Company has not developed or operated any mines and has no operating history upon which an evaluation of future success or failure can be made. The Company currently has no mining operations of any kind. The Company’s ability to achieve and maintain profitable mining operations is dependent upon a number of factors, including its ability to successfully build and operate mines, processing plants and related infrastructure. The Company may not successfully establish mining operations or profitably produce metals. As such, the Company does not know if it will ever generate revenues.

-7-

Mining and Mineral Exploration Have Substantial Operational Risks

Mining and mineral exploration involves many risks, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. These risks include but are not limited to:

	•	major or catastrophic equipment failures;

	•	mine failures and slope failures;

	•	failure of tailings facilities;

	•	ground fall and cave-ins;

	•	deleterious elements materializing in the mined resources;

	•	environmental hazards;

	•	industrial accidents and explosions;

	•	encountering unusual or unexpected geological formations;

	•	labour shortages or strikes;

	•	civil disobedience and protests; and

	•	natural phenomena such as inclement weather conditions, floods, droughts, rock slides and earthquakes.

These occurrences could result in environmental damage and liabilities, work stoppages and delayed production, increased production costs, damage to, or destruction of, mineral properties or production facilities, personal injury or death, asset write-downs, monetary losses, loss of or suspension of permits as a result of regulatory action, reputational damage and other liabilities. The nature of these risks is such that liabilities could exceed policy limits of the Company’s insurance coverage, in which case the Company could incur significant costs that could prevent profitable operations.

Environmental and health and safety risks.

The Company’s operations will be subject to environmental regulations promulgated by government agencies from time to time. There is no assurance that environmental regulations will not change in a manner that could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity or results of operations, and a breach of any such regulation may result in the imposition of fines and penalties.

Environmental legislation is constantly expanding and evolving in ways that impose stricter standards and more rigorous enforcement, with higher fines and more severe penalties for non-compliance, and increased scrutiny of proposed projects. There is an increased level of responsibility for companies, and trends towards criminal liability for officers and directors for violations of environmental laws, whether inadvertent or not. The cost of compliance with changes in governmental regulations has the potential to reduce the profitability of the Company’s operations.

-8-

Exploration activities and/or the pursuit of commercial production of the Company’s mineral claims may be subject to an environmental review process under environmental assessment legislation. Compliance with an environmental review process may be costly and may delay commercial production. Furthermore, there is the possibility that the Company would not be able to proceed with commercial production upon completion of the environmental review process if government authorities do not approve the proposed mine, or if the costs of compliance with government regulation adversely affect the commercial viability of the proposed mine.

The development and operation of a mine involves significant risks to personnel from accidents or catastrophes such as fires, explosions or collapses. These risks could result in damage or destruction of mineral properties, production facilities, casualties, personal injury, environmental damage, mining delays, increased production costs, monetary losses and legal liability. The Company may not be able to obtain insurance to cover these risks at economically feasible premiums. Insurance against certain environmental risks, including potential liability for pollution and other hazards as a result of the disposal of waste products occurring from production, is not generally available to companies within the mining industry. The Company may be materially adversely affected if it incurs losses related to any significant events that are not covered by its insurance policies.

The Company is subject to significant governmental regulations and related costs and delays may negatively affect business.

Mining and mineral processing activities are subject to extensive federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations governing environmental protection, natural resources, prospecting, development, production, post-closure reclamation, taxes, labor standards and occupational health and safety laws and regulations, including mine safety, toxic substances and other matters. The costs associated with compliance with such laws and regulations are substantial. Possible future laws and regulations, or more restrictive interpretations of current laws and regulations by governmental authorities, could cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions on or suspensions of operations and delays in the development of new properties.

The Company will be required to obtain various governmental permits to conduct exploration, development, construction and mining activities. Obtaining the necessary governmental permits is often a complex and time-consuming process involving numerous federal, provincial, state, and local agencies. The duration and success of each permitting effort is contingent upon many variables not within the Company’s control. In the context of obtaining permits or approvals, the Company will need to comply with known standards, existing laws, and regulations that may entail greater or lesser costs and delays depending on the nature of the activity to be permitted and the interpretation of the laws and regulations implemented by the permitting authority. The failure to obtain certain permits or the adoption of more stringent permitting requirements could have a material adverse effect on business, operations, and properties and the Company may be unable to proceed with exploration and development programs.

Federal legislation and implementing regulations adopted and administered by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, Army Corp of Engineers, Forest Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, Mine Safety and Health Administration, and other federal agencies, and legislation such as the Federal Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, have a direct bearing on exploration, development and mining operations United States. Due to the uncertainties inherent in the permitting process, the Company cannot be certain that it will be able to obtain required approvals for proposed activities, or that proposed activities will be allowed at all.

-9-

Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, which may require corrective measures including capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions. Parties engaged in mining operations or in the exploration or development of mineral properties may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of the mining activities and may be subject to civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of applicable laws or regulations. Any such penalties, fines, sanctions or shutdowns could have a material adverse effect on business and results of operations.

A substantial portion our business activities will be overseas and we will be subject to all of the risks of international operations.

We expect that a substantial portion of our operations will involve performing R&D related to our technology in China and selling services and products related to and licenses for this technology to buyers in China and other international markets. Thus, a substantial portion of our business operations will be subject to the risks of international operations. Our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected by changes or uncertainties in the political or economic climates, laws, regulations, tariffs, duties, import quotas, or other trade, intellectual property or tax policies in China and possibly other foreign countries. We will also be subject to adverse exchange rate fluctuations among Chinese currency and the US dollar since we anticipate that any revenue generated as well as and costs and expenses for our operations in China will be paid in the Chinese RMB.

We will continue to incur the expenses of complying with public company reporting requirements.

We have an obligation to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, as amended, even though compliance with such reporting requirements is economically burdensome.

We may experience difficulties in the future in complying with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

As a public company, we will be required to evaluate our internal controls under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In this regard, we will be required to comply with the internal control requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we could be subject to regulatory scrutiny, civil or criminal penalties and/or stockholder litigation. Any inability to provide reliable financial reports could harm our business. Furthermore, any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in the implementation of adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations.

If we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls in future periods, it could adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and our ability to run our business effectively and could cause investors to lose confidence in our financial reporting.

We may be unable to continue as a going concern if we do not successfully raise additional capital or if we fail to generate sufficient revenue from operations.

Primarily as a result of our recurring losses and our lack of liquidity, in connection with our year ended March 31, 2018, we received a report from our independent auditors that includes an explanatory paragraph describing the substantial uncertainty as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

-10-

Reliance on and experience of our officers and directors.

Our officers and directors will be responsible for the management and control of the Company. Our success will, to a large extent, depend on the quality of the management provided by the officers and directors. Although our officers and directors believe they have the ability to manage the Company, they can give no assurance their efforts will result in success. Stockholders have no right or power to take part in the management of the Company.

We may have difficulty managing growth in our business.

Because of our small size and the relatively large scale of operations required for our business to yield revenue, growth in accordance with our business plan, if achieved, will place a significant strain on our financial, technical, operational and management resources. As we expand our activities, there will be additional demands on these resources. The failure to continue to upgrade our technical, administrative, operating and financial control systems or the occurrence of unexpected expansion difficulties, including issues relating to our performance of R&D activities and retention of experienced scientists, managers and engineers, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to timely execute our business plan. If we are unable to implement these actions in a timely manner, our results may be adversely affected.

If we borrow money to expand our business, we will face the risks of leverage.

We anticipate we may in the future incur debt to finance our growth. Our ability to borrow funds will depend upon a number of factors, including the condition of the financial markets. The risk of loss in such circumstances is increased because we would be obligated to meet fixed payment obligations on specified dates regardless of our revenue. If we do not meet our debt payments when due, we may sustain the loss of our equity investment in any of our assets securing such debt upon the foreclosure on such debt by a secured lender.

Our stock price is likely to be highly volatile because of several factors, including a limited public float.

The market price of our stock is likely to be highly volatile because there has been a relatively thin trading market for our stock, which causes trades of small blocks of stock to have a significant impact on our stock price. You may not be able to resell our common stock following periods of volatility because of the market’s adverse reaction to volatility.

Other factors that could cause such volatility may include, among other things:

-	announcements concerning our strategy;
-	litigation; and
-	general market conditions.

Our common stock is considered a “penny stock,” any investment in our shares is considered to be a high-risk investment and is subject to restrictions on marketability

Our common stock is considered a “penny stock” because it is quoted and traded on the OTC Markets (“OTCMkts”) and it trades for less than $5.00 per share. The OTCMKRTS are generally regarded as a less efficient trading market than the NASDAQ Capital or Global Markets or the New York Stock Exchange.

-11-

The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 per share (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which specifies information about penny stocks and the nature and significance of risks of the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and any salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements indicating the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to effecting a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock.

Since our common stock is subject to the regulations applicable to penny stocks, the market liquidity for our common stock could be adversely affected because the regulations on penny stocks could limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and thus your ability to sell our common stock in the secondary market in the future. We can provide no assurance that our common stock will be quoted or listed on the OTCMKRTS, NASDAQ or any exchange, even if eligible in the future.

We have additional securities available for issuance, including preferred stock, which if issued could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

Our articles of incorporation authorize issuance of 150,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000 shares of preferred stock. The common stock and preferred stock can be issued by our Board of Directors (“BOD”) without stockholder approval. Accordingly, our stockholders will be dependent upon the judgment of our BOD in connection with the future issuance and sale of shares of our common and preferred stock, in the event that buyers can be found. Any future issuances of common stock would further dilute the percentage ownership of our Company held by the public stockholders.

Risks Related to Doing Business in China

A substantial portion sales may be in China.

China is a developing country and has a limited history of trade practices as a nation. Because we will likely direct a substantial amount of our sales efforts to customers in China, we will be subject to the laws, rules, regulations, and political authority of the government of the PRC. We may encounter material problems while doing business in China, such as in interactions with the Chinese government and the uncertainty of foreign legal precedent pertaining to our business in China. Risks inherent in international operations also include the following:

-	local currency instability;
-	inflation;
-	the risk of realizing economic currency exchange losses when transactions are completed in the Chinese RMB and other currencies;
-	the ability to repatriate earnings under existing exchange control laws; and
-	political unrest.

-12-

Changes in import and export laws and tariffs can also materially impact international operations. In addition, international operations involve political, as well as economic risks, including:

-	nationalization;
-	expropriation;
-	contract renegotiations; and
-	changes in laws resulting from governmental changes.

In addition, we may be subject to rules and regulations of the PRC or the jurisdiction of other governmental agencies in the PRC that may adversely affect our ability to perform under, or our rights and obligations in, our contracts with Chinese companies or government entities. In the event of a dispute, we will likely be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts. We may also be hindered or prevented from enforcing our rights with respect to a governmental instrumentality because of the doctrine of sovereign immunity.

Adverse changes in political and economic policies of the PRC government could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China, which could reduce the demand for our products and materially and adversely affect our competitive position.

Some or all of our sales may be made in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are affected significantly by economic, political and legal developments in China. The Chinese economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including:

-	the amount of government involvement;
-	the level of development;
-	the growth rate;
-	the control of foreign exchange; and
-	the allocation of resources.

While it is our understanding that the economy in China has grown significantly in the past 20 years, the growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various economic sectors. The government of the PRC has implemented various measures to encourage or control economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures benefit the overall Chinese economy, but may also have a negative effect on us. For example, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations that are applicable to us.

The Chinese economy has been transitioning from a planned to a more market-oriented economy. Although in recent years the PRC government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of sound corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of the productive assets in China is still owned by the PRC government. The continued control of these assets and other aspects of the national economy by the PRC government could materially and adversely affect our business. The PRC government also exercises significant control over Chinese economic growth through the allocation of resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Efforts by the PRC government to slow the pace of growth of the Chinese economy could result in decreased capital expenditure by power plants, which in turn could reduce demand for our products and services.

Uncertainties with respect to the Chinese legal system could have a material adverse effect on us.

We plan to conduct some of our sales and a substantial portion all of our administrative activities in China. We will be generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investment in China. The PRC legal system is based, at least in part, on written statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but may have limited precedential value. It is our understanding that since 1979, PRC legislation and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involves uncertainties. We cannot predict the effect of future developments in the PRC legal system, including the promulgation of new laws, changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, the preemption of local regulations by national laws, or the overturn of local government’s decisions by the superior government. These uncertainties may limit legal protections available to us. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

Risks Related to an Investment in Our Securities

To date, we have not paid any cash dividends and no cash dividends are expected to be paid in the foreseeable future.

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and we may not have sufficient funds legally available to pay dividends. Even if the funds are legally available for distribution, we may nevertheless decide not to pay any dividends. We intend to retain all earnings for our operations.

The application of the “penny stock” rules could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and increase your transaction costs to sell those shares.

As long as the trading price of our common shares is below $5 per share, the open-market trading of our common shares will be subject to the “penny stock” rules. The “penny stock” rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers which sell securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of securities and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction before the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the broker-dealer must deliver, before the transaction, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information on the limited market in penny stocks. These additional burdens imposed on broker-dealers may restrict the ability or decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to sell our common shares, and may result in decreased liquidity for our common shares and increased transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common shares as compared to other securities.

Our common shares are thinly traded and, you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if you need to sell your shares to raise money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares.

The Company cannot predict the extent to which an active public market for its common stock will develop or be sustained. However, the Company does not rule out the possibility of applying for listing on the Nasdaq National Market or other exchanges.

Our common shares historically are "thinly-traded" on the OTCMKRTS, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common shares at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will be sustained.

The market price for our common stock is particularly volatile given our status as a relatively small company with a small and thinly traded “float” and lack of current revenues that could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. The price at which you purchase our common stock may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market. You may be unable to sell your common stock at or above your purchase price if at all, which may result in substantial losses to you.

The market for our common stock is characterized by significant price volatility when compared with seasoned issuers, and we expect our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. The volatility in our share price is attributable to a number of factors. First, as noted above, our common shares are sporadically and/or thinly traded. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our shareholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our common shares are sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer which could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price. Secondly, we are a speculative or "risky" investment due to our lack of revenues or profits to date and uncertainty of future market acceptance for our current and potential products. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a seasoned issuer. The following factors may add to the volatility in the price of our common shares: actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly or annual operating results; adverse outcomes; and additions or departures of our key personnel, as well as other items discussed under this "Risk Factors" section, as well as elsewhere in this annual report.

Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common shares, regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our common shares will be at any time, including as to whether our common shares will sustain their current market prices, or as to what effect that the sale of shares or the availability of common shares for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price. However, we do not rule out the possibility of applying for listing on the Nasdaq National Market or other exchanges.

Stockholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.

Our corporate actions are substantially controlled by our principal shareholders and affiliated entities.

As of July 3, 2018, our principal stockholders and their affiliated entities own 26.52% of our outstanding common shares, representing 26.52% of our voting power. These stockholders, acting individually or as a group, could exert substantial influence over matters such as electing directors and approving mergers or other business combination transactions. In addition, because of the percentage of ownership and voting concentration in these principal stockholders and their affiliated entities, elections of our BOD will generally be within the control of these stockholders and their affiliated entities. While all of our stockholders are entitled to vote on matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, the concentration of shares and voting control presently lies with these principal stockholders and their affiliated entities. As such, it would be difficult for stockholders to propose and have approved proposals not supported by management. There can be no assurance that matters voted upon by our officers and directors in their capacity as stockholders will be viewed favorably by all stockholders of the company.

The elimination of monetary liability against our directors, officers and employees under Nevada law and the existence of indemnification rights to our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by our company and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers and employees.

Our articles of incorporation contain a provision that eliminates the liability of our directors for monetary damages to our company and shareholders to the extent allowed under Nevada law and we are prepared to give such indemnification to our directors and officers to the extent provided by Nevada law. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage our company from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and shareholders.

-16-

Legislative actions, higher insurance costs and potential new accounting pronouncements may impact our future financial position and results of operations.

There have been regulatory changes, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and there may potentially be new accounting pronouncements or additional regulatory rulings that will have an impact on our future financial position and results of operations. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other similar rule changes are likely to increase general and administrative costs and expenses. Additionally, there could be changes in certain accounting rules. These and other potential changes could materially increase the expenses we report under generally accepted accounting principles, and adversely affect our operating results.

The market price for our stock may be volatile which may place downward pressure on our stock price.

The market price for our stock may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors including the following:

-	actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly operating results;
-	changes in financial estimates by securities research analysts;
-	conditions in alternative energy and coal-based product markets;
-	changes in the economic performance or market valuations of other alternative energy and coal-based products companies;
-	announcements by us or our competitors of new products, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
-	addition or departure of key personnel;
-	intellectual property litigation; and
-	general economic or political conditions in China.

In addition, the securities market has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our stock.

We will need additional capital, and the sale of additional shares or other equity securities could result in additional dilution to our shareholders.

We will require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If our resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to sell equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The sale of equity securities could result in dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

-17-

Shares eligible for future sale may adversely affect the market.

From time to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to amended Rule 144, non-affiliate stockholders may sell freely after six months subject only to the current public information requirement (which disappears after one year). Affiliates may sell after six months subject to the Rule 144 volume, manner of sale (for equity securities), current public information and notice requirements.

We will incur increased costs as a result of being a public company.

As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as new rules subsequently implemented by SEC, has required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. We expect these new rules and regulations to increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs and to make certain corporate activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, we will incur additional costs associated with our public company reporting requirements. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these new rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to the notes to the consolidated financial statements for a complete description of recent accounting standards which we have not yet been required to implement and may be applicable to our operation, as well as those significant accounting standards that have been adopted during the current year.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates which are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The result of these evaluations forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported amount of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions. The following accounting policies require significant management judgments and estimates:

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. ASC 605 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (3) the fee is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. When we are paid in advance for products or services we classify these amounts as deferred revenue. Upon the receipt of these products at the destination port, we recognize revenue. For services, and we amortized the price over the term of the agreement. Starting April 1, 2018, the Company implemented ASC 606. Either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method is permitted. The Company has been evaluating the impact of this new pronouncement and does not believe the implementation of ASC 606 will have a significant effect on the financial results of the Company for fiscal years beginning on and after April 1, 2018.

Cost of goods sold- Cost of goods sold includes cost of inventory sold during the period, net of discounts and inventory allowances, freight and shipping costs, warranty and rework costs, and sales tax.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of- In accordance with ASC 360 and ASC 820, we evaluate long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, we compare the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. We currently believe there is no impairment of our long-lived assets. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for our products under development will continue. Either of these could result in future impairment of long-lived assets.

Fiscal Year 2018 Compared to Fiscal Year 2017

Results from Operations

Revenues

Revenues were $0 and $0 for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales was $0 and $0 for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $1,314,708 and $973,536 for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase in expense of $341,172 in selling, general and administrative expenses was due to an impairment of intangibles of $603,903 offset by a decrease in operations and specifically a decrease in stock compensation, professional fees, travel, insurance and rent.

Interest Income (Expense) and Other, Net

Interest income (expense) and other, net was ($228,469) and ($206,194) for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The interest expense for the year ending March 31, 2017 was primarily due to the shares issued as a finance charge for liabilities owed to related parties and outstanding note payables. The interest expense for the year ending March 31, 2018 was primarily due to the outstanding note payables.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash used in operating activities was $182,098 and $68,274 for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase in cash used was primarily due to a decrease in equity issued for finance charges and a decrease in accounts payable and interest payable to related parties from 2017 to 2018

Net cash used in investing activities was $0 and $915 for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $384,050 and $129,890 for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase in cash flows from financing activities was due to increases stock issued for cash in 2018 compared to 2017.

The Company suffered recurring losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $16,317,490 at March 31, 2018. Currently, we have not generated consistent revenues as of March 31, 2018, had a cash balance of $248,472. The Company is seeking various forms of financing. To the extent additional funding is not achieved this will delay our business plans. We believe we have sufficient cash resources for the next 6 months, in order to meet our business goals we will need to seek additional funding or enter into strategic partnerships.

-23-

Going Concern Uncertainties

As of the date of this annual report, there is doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern as we have not generated sufficient cash flow to fund our business operations and loan commitments. Our future success and viability, therefore, are dependent upon our ability to generate capital financing. The failure to generate sufficient revenues or raise additional capital may have a material and adverse effect upon the Company and our shareholders.

Capital Expenditures

We had $0 capital expenditures for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations

Effective January 1, 2014, we entered into an employment agreement with Philip Liu, the Company’s CEO. Under the employment agreement, Mr. Liu will receive a base salary of $240,000 per year and a guaranteed bonus of $40,000 per year. Each quarter Mr. Liu shall receive 100,000 options to purchase the Company’s common at an exercise price of $0.25 per share. Mr. Liu will be eligible for an incentive bonus based on his performance.

Mr. Liu has deferred half his compensation under this agreement.

Effective January 1, 2014, we entered into an employment agreement with Eric Stoppenhagen, the Company’s CFO. Under the employment agreement, Mr. Stoppenhagen will receive a base salary of $120,000 per year and a guaranteed bonus of $20,000 per year. Each quarter Mr. Stoppenhagen shall receive 100,000 options to purchase the Company’s common at an exercise price of $0.25 per share.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

AuraSource, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of AuraSource, Inc. (the "Company") as of March 31, 2018 and 2017, the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Going Concern Matter

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement, whether due to error fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2018 and 2017

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Current Operations and Background — AuraSource, Inc. (“AuraSource” or “Company”) focuses on two areas AuraMetal and AuraMoto.

There can be no assurance we will be able to carry out our development plans for AuraMetals or AuraMoto. Our ability to pursue this strategy is subject to the availability of additional capital and further development of our technology. We also need to finance the cost of effectively protecting our intellectual property rights in the United States (“US”) and abroad where we intend to market our technology and products.

Going Concern — The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of and for the period ended March 31, 2018, the Company has incurred operating losses and working capital deficit. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Management’s Plan to Continue as a Going Concern

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to obtain such resources for the Company include (1) obtaining capital from the sale of its equity securities, (2) sales of its products, and (3) short-term or long-term borrowings from banks, stockholders or other party(ies) when needed. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The Company plans to look for opportunities to merge with other companies in the graphite industry.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually to secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.

-31-

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and include the accounts of AuraSource, Inc. and its subsidiary, Qinzhou. All significant intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents — We consider cash equivalent with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.

Property and Equipment - Property and Equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the assets' estimated useful lives. The useful lives of the assets are as follows: machinery and equipment 5 years, office equipment 5 to 7 years, vehicles 5 years, and leasehold improvements use the shorter of the estimated useful life or the remaining term of the agreements, generally ranging from 3 to 15 years. Additions and improvements are capitalized while routine repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Upon sale or disposition, the historically recorded asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount less proceeds from disposal is charged or credited to other income / expense.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of- In accordance with ASC 360, we evaluate long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, we compare the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. We currently believe there is no impairment of our long-lived assets. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for our products under development will continue. Either of these could result in future impairment of long-lived assets.

Income Taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized to reflect the estimated future tax effects, calculated at currently effective tax rates, of future deductible or taxable amounts attributable to events that have been recognized on a cumulative basis in the financial statements. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Stock-Based Compensation — We periodically issue stock options and shares to employees and non-employees for services. We account for stock option grants issued and vesting to employees based on Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, whereas the award is measured at its fair value at the date of grant and is amortized ratably over the vesting period. We account for shares issued to non-employees in accordance with ASC Topic 505, “Equity”, whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either (a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or (b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete.

-32-

Comprehensive Income - We have adopted ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, formerly known as SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements. We have chosen to report comprehensive income (loss) in the statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Foreign Currency Translation. - Our consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars but the functional currency of our operating subsidiary is RMB. Results of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the financial statements denominated in RMB into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income. Our foreign currency translation loss for the year ended March 31, 2018 was $41,903, compared a translation gain of $24,172 for the year ended March 31, 2017.

Net Loss Per Share — The Company computes basic and diluted net loss per share by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares related to stock options and warrants were excluded from the computation of basic and diluted loss per share for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 because their effect is anti-dilutive.

Concentration of Credit Risk — Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash. The Company maintains its cash with high credit quality financial institutions; at times, such balances with any one financial institution may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits.

Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments — Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and notes payable. The carrying values of cash, accounts payable, and notes payable are representative of their fair values due to their short-term maturities. We measure the fair value (“FV”) of financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis. FV is defined 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. FV measurements are to be considered from the perspective of a market participant that holds the asset or owes the liability. We also establish a FV hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring FV.

The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure FV:

Level 1:		Quoted prices in active markets for identical or similar assets and liabilities.

Level 2:		Quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical or similar assets and liabilities.

Level 3:		Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the FV of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payables, and notes payable approximates their fair values due to their short-term maturities.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements —

In January 2016, the FASB issued a new standard to amend certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. Most prominent among the amendments is the requirement for changes in the fair value of our equity investments, with certain exceptions, to be recognized through net income rather than other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The new standard will be effective for us beginning July 1, 2018. The application of the amendments will result in a cumulative-effect adjustment to our consolidated balance sheets as of the effective date. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new standard related to leases to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. Most prominent among the amendments is the recognition of assets and liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous U.S. GAAP. Under the new standard, disclosures are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. We will be required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The new standard will be effective for us beginning July 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes the existing guidance for lease accounting, Leases (Topic 840). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize leases on their balance sheets, and leaves lessor accounting largely unchanged. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all entities. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to elect to use certain transition relief. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new standard to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. For trade and other receivables, loans, and other financial instruments, we will be required to use a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses which reflects losses that are probable. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will also be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. The new standard will be effective for us beginning July 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted beginning July 1, 2019. Application of the amendments is through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvement to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new standard contains several amendments that will simplify the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, statutory tax withholding requirements, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on our present or future consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 – CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

We maintain our cash balances in financial institutions that from time to time exceed amounts insured by the FDIC (up to $250,000, per financial institution as of March 31, 2018). As of March 31, 2018 and 2017, our deposits did not exceed insured amounts. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and we believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Currently, we maintain a bank account in China. This account is not insured and we believe is exposed to credit risk on cash. The cash balance in China as of March 31, 2018 is $41,992.

NOTE 3 – DEPOSITS AND OTHER CURRENT ASSETS – RELATED PARTY

Deposits and other current assets were $516,045 and $526,963 as of March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and were comprised of the following:

On February 15, 2012, we entered into an agreement with Gulf Coast Holdings, LLC (“GCH”), an affiliate common ownership with HKM which owns over 10% voting rights, to reserve export ready one million tons of 64% Fe higher content iron ore and 13 million tons of 45% grade lower content iron ore, and two million tons of manganese ore. We issued the Mineral Deposit Shares to GCH or its assigns. On February 19, 2012, GCH assigned 100% of its interest in the Mineral Reserve Agreement to Hong Kong Minerals Holdings, Ltd. The Mineral Deposit Shares shall vest and be delivered as follows: five million immediately and 11 million upon the successful completion of the first customer order of total revenue over $5 million. Success shall be defined as customer acceptance of order and final payment. To the extent a successful order does not occur, the unvested Mineral Deposit Shares shall be returned to our treasury and cancelled. To date, the Company has not achieved $5 million in revenue, as such the 11 million shares is being held by the Company. As of March 31, 2018, the Company has obtained possession a small amount of the above noted minerals. As such, the issuance of the shares have been recorded as a charge to additional paid in capital and a credit to common stock at par value of $0.001 per share for a total of $16,000. GCH has the right to designate two members on the Board of Directors (“BOD”), one of whom is to be mutually agreed. To date GCH has not designated any board members. Additionally, we entered into an agreement with Gulf Coast Mining Group, LLC (“GCM”) to purchase Minerals which will be delivered loose in bulk modified FOB. We entered into an agreement with GCH appointing GCH as the exclusive North American licensee for use and exploitation of our technology as it relates to applications involving precious metals in exchange for royalty payments of 5% of gross revenues. GCH, GCM and HKM all have the same beneficial owner. For the year ended March 31, 2013, the Company paid $400,000 to GCM and $125,000 cash to HKM Minerals as deposit for mineral reserve.

In October 2017, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.25 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements. In January 2018, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.25 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements.

We will record stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period, which in our case approximates the vesting period of the options. During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded $59,040, respectively, in compensation expense arising from the vesting of options, respectively. The Company assumed all stock options issued during the quarter will vest. Though these expenses result in a deferred tax benefit, we have a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax benefit.

The Company adopted the detailed method provided in FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” for calculating the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool (“APIC pool”) related to the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation, and to determine the subsequent impact on the APIC pool and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows of the income tax effects of employee stock-based compensation awards that are outstanding.

The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (“BSOPM”). The BSOPM has assumptions for risk free interest rates, dividends, stock volatility and expected life of an option grant. The risk-free interest rate is based upon market yields for United States Treasury debt securities at a 7-year constant maturity. Dividend rates are based on the Company’s dividend history. The stock volatility factor is based on the last 60 days of market prices prior to the grant date. The expected life of an option grant is based on management’s estimate. The fair value of each option grant, as calculated by the BSOPM, is recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each stock option award.

These assumptions were used to determine the FV of stock options granted:


Dividend yield		0.0%
Volatility		25% to 369%
Average expected option life	2.5 to 5 years
Risk-free interest rate		0.70% to 2.59%

NOTE 14 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

-41-

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

Not applicable.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures: We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term "disclosure controls and procedures", as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC`s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of March 31, 2018, that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective at a reasonable assurance level and are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the controls and procedures will meet their objectives. However, it should be noted that the design of any system of controls 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, regardless of how remote.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting: Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our ICFR is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US GAAP. The internal controls for the Company are provided by executive management's review and approval of all transactions. Our ICFR also includes those policies and procedures that:

(1)	pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

(2)	provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management; and

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

-42-

Because of its inherent limitations, ICFR may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's ICFR as of March 31, 2018. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Management's assessment included an evaluation of the design of our ICFR and testing of the operational effectiveness of these controls.

Based on this assessment, management has concluded that as of March 31, 2018, our ICFR was not effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US GAAP.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

Although we are not a “listed company” under SEC rules and are therefore not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors, we have formed an Audit Committee that is currently comprised of two members: Philip Liu, with Eric Stoppenhagen serving as Chairman of the committee. Our board of directors has determined that Mr. Stoppenhagen serves as the “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters

The following table sets forth certain information regarding beneficial ownership of our common stock as of July 3, 2018 by (i) each person who “beneficially” owns more than 5% of all outstanding shares of our common stock, (ii) each director and the executive officer identified above, and (iii) all directors and executive officers as a group. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Unless otherwise indicated below, to our knowledge, the persons and entities named in the table have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all shares beneficially owned, subject to community property laws where applicable. Shares of our common stock subject to options and warrants from the Company that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days are deemed to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person holding the options or warrants for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

The information presented in this table is based on 62,381,476 shares of our common stock outstanding on July 3, 2018. Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each of the executive officers and directors and 5% or more shareholders named below is c/o 1490 South Price Road, Suite 210C, Chandler, AZ 85286.

Item 14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services

Independent Public Accountants

On April 4, 2014, we engaged TAAD, LLP (“TAAD”) our new independent registered public accounting firm. The appointment of TAAD was approved by our Board of Directors. During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we did not consult with TAAD on (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that may be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and TAAD did not provide either a written report or oral advice to the Company that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or (ii) the subject of any disagreement, as defined in Item 304 (a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions, or a reportable event within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Audit Fees

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-audit Services of Independent Auditors

The BOD’s policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. Pre-approval is generally detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally subject to a specific budget. The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the BOD regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with this pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date. The BOD may also pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis. No services were approved by the BOD in accordance with Item 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.

The BOD has determined that the rendering of the services other than audit services by GKM is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

1. Audit services include audit work performed in the preparation of consolidated financial statements, as well as work that generally only the independent auditor can reasonably be expected to provide, including comfort letters, statutory audits, and attest services and consultation regarding financial accounting and/or reporting standards.

2. Audit-Related services are for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the audit or review of our consolidated financial statements.

3. Tax services include all services performed by the independent auditor’s tax personnel except those services specifically related to the audit of the consolidated financial statements, and includes fees in the areas of tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice.

4. Other Fees are those associated with products or services not captured in the other categories.
