LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


In management's view, given the nature of the Company's activities, which consist of the acquisition, exploration, exploration management and sale of resource properties, the most meaningful and material financial information concerning the Company relates to its current liquidity and capital resources.  The Company does not currently own or have an interest in any producing resource properties and has not derived any revenues from the sale of resource products in the last three financial years.  The Company's sole property, the Santa Rosa Property, is located in Argentina, and as a result the Company's operations on the property may be subject to additional risks.


The Company's exploration activities have been funded through sales of common shares, and the Company expects that it will continue to be able to utilize this source of financing until it develops cash flow from its operations.  There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to obtain required financing in the future on acceptable terms, or at all.  In the near term, the Company plans to continue its exploration activities on its currently held property.  Based on its existing working capital, the Company requires additional financing for its currently held property during the upcoming fiscal year.  If such funds are not available or cannot be obtained or are insufficient to cover the costs of the Company’s exploration activities, the Company will be forced to curtail its exploration activities to a level for which funding is available or can be obtained.  Accordingly, there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures at the end of its most recent fiscal year, but intends, subject to raising the necessary financing (which it is currently seeking) to incur additional exploration expenditures on its Santa Rosa Property during the fiscal year ending February 28, 2004.   In June 2002, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Cynthia Holdings Limited (“Cynthia”), agreed to sell an effective 50% interest in its Santa Rosa Property.  Cynthia has yet to receive any funds pursuant to this transaction.


Management reviews annually the carrying value of the Company’s interest in each resource property and where necessary, properties are written down to the estimated recoverable amount determined on a non-discounted basis after giving effect to any property option agreements and cost recovery agreements.  Costs relating to properties abandoned are written off when the decision to abandon is made.


Other than as discussed herein, the Company is not aware of any trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that may result in the Company's liquidity either materially increasing or decreasing at present or in the foreseeable future.  Material increases or decreases in the Company's liquidity will be substantially determined by the success or failure of exploration on the Santa Rosa Property.


SUBSEQUENT EVENT


Subsequent to the end of the three and nine month periods ended November 30, 2003, the Company issued 1,000,000 common shares pursuant to the exercise of warrants to generate net proceeds of $120,000.
