ACCOUNTANT'S REVIEW REPORT

We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Black Mountain Gold, Inc. (an exploration stage enterprise) as of September 30, 2001 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the three and nine months then ended, and for the period from February 23, 2000 (inception) through September 30, 2001.These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company=s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2000 were audited by us and we expressed an unqualified opinion on them in our report dated February 16, 2001, except for Note 12, dated July 5, 2001.We have not performed any auditing procedures since those dates.

As discussed in Note 2, the Company has been in the exploration stage since its inception and has no revenues. The Company=s continued viability is dependent upon the Company=s ability to meet its future financing requirements and the success of future operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the company=s ability to continue as a going concern. Management=s plans regarding those matters are described in Note 2.The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BLACK MOUNTAIN GOLD, INC.
(AN EXPLORATION STAGE ENTERPRISE)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2001

NOTE 1 B ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Black Mountain Gold, Inc. (hereinafter Athe Company@) was incorporated on February 23, 2000 under the laws of the State of Nevada for the purpose of acquiring, exploring and developing mining properties. The Company=s fiscal year end is December 31. Upon formation, the Company issued its stock and warrants in exchange for common stock and warrants in a communications company and unpatented mining claims in Arizona. See Notes 3 and 8.

NOTE 2 B SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies of Black Mountain Gold, Inc. is presented to assist in understanding the Company=s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company=s management which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

Exploration Stage Activities

The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation in February 2000. The Company has not conducted any exploration as of September 30, 2001, and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Upon location of a commercial minable reserve, the Company expects to actively prepare the site for its extraction and then enter the development stage.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $1,167,138 at September 30, 2001, has negative working capital and no sales. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of its mineral properties. Management plans to increase the capitalization of the Company and is actively seeking additional capital through a public offering of the Company=s common stock in order to provide funds needed to fund the exploration and development of its mining properties, to fund the internal growth of the Company, and to fully implement its business plans. For the twelve-month period subsequent to September 30, 2001, the Company anticipates that its minimum cash requirements to continue as a going concern will be between $500,000 and $1,000,000. The Company=s success will be dependent upon the Company=s efforts to raise capital over that period. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

BLACK MOUNTAIN GOLD, INC.
(AN EXPLORATION STAGE ENTERPRISE)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2001

NOTE 2 B SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Accounting Method

The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts for cash, marketable securities, receivables, accounts payable, notes payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

Loss per share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of shares was calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding. As of September 30, 2001, the Company had 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding, which is convertible to common stock at a rate of one preferred share to one share of common stock. Preferred shares, which may be converted to shares of common stock twelve months after the Company completes an initial public offering, are not considered common stock equivalents at September 30, 2001. A and B warrants are considered anti-dilutive and have been excluded as part of the loss per share calculation for all periods presented.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Use of Estimates

The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.

Impaired Asset Policy

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a statement titled AAccounting for Impairment of Long-lived Assets.@ In complying with this standard, the Company will review its long-lived assets quarterly to determine if any events or changes in circumstances have transpired which indicate that the carrying value of its assets may not be recoverable. The Company does not believe any adjustments are needed to the carrying value of its assets at September 30, 2001.

NOTE 2 B SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Derivative Instruments

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (ASFAS@) No. 133, AAccounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,@ as amended by SFAS No. 137, AAccounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities B Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB No. 133@, and SFAS No. 138, AAccounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities@, which is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2001. This standard establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.

If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change.

Historically, the Company has not entered into derivatives contracts to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes.

At September 30, 2001, the Company has not engaged in any transactions that would be considered derivative instruments or hedging activities.

Concentration of Risk

As of September 30, 2001, all trading investments owned by the Company were held in one security, which trades on the NASDAQ Over the Counter Bulletin Board. The fair market value of the Company=s investments as of September 30, 2001 was $2,855. See Note 3.

Exploration Costs

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the Company will expense exploration costs as incurred.

Compensated Absences

Currently, the Company has no employees; therefore, no policy regarding compensated absences has been established. The Company will establish a policy to recognize the costs of compensated absences at the point in time that it has employees.

NOTE 2 B SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Provision for Taxes

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to SFAS No. 109 AAccounting for Income Taxes.@ Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the Amore likely than not@ standard imposed by SFAS No. 109 to allow recognition of such an asset.

At September 30, 2001, the Company had net deferred tax assets of approximately $67,000 principally arising from net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes. As management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset, a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred tax asset has been established at September 30, 2001.

At September 30, 2001, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $270,000, which expire in the years 2020 through 2021. The Company recognized $800,000 of losses for the issuance of common stock for services in 2000, which were not deductible for tax purposes, and are not included in the above calculation of deferred tax assets. The Company has also recognized approximately $96,000 in holding losses on trading securities. These unrealized losses are not deductible for tax purposes and are not included in the calculation of deferred tax assets.

Accounting Pronouncements

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130"), and No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS No. 131"). SFAS 130 establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. SFAS 131 establishes standards for the way that companies report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires reporting of selected information about operating segments in interim financial statements. Both SFAS 130 and SFAS 131 are effective for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company adopted these accounting standards, and their adoption had no effect on the Company's financial statements and disclosures.

In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140 AAccounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities.@ This statement provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishment of liabilities and also provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. SFAS No. 140 is effective for recognition and reclassification of collateral and for disclosures relating to securitization transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000, and is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. The Company believes that the adoption of this standard will not have a material effect on the Company=s results of operations or financial position.

Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 provides for the elimination of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations with an acquisition date of July 1, 2001 or later. SFAS No. 142 prohibits the amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives and requires periodic reassessment of the underlying value of such assets for impairment. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. An early adoption provision exists for companies with fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001. On September 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142. Application of the nonamortization provision of SFAS No. 142 has not effected the Company=s financial statements as they are not carrying any amortizable assets.

Interim Financial Statements

The interim financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 have been prepared for the company without audit. They reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the results of operations for these periods. All such adjustments are normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

NOTE 3 B INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES

The Company=s securities investments, currently, are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term, and are therefore classified as trading securities. Trading securities are recorded at fair market value on the balance sheet in current assets, with the change in fair value during the period included in earnings.

On February 23, 2000, the Company=s stockholders were contractually obligated to contribute 37,888 common stock shares of Nexland, Inc. valued at $7.00 per share to the Company. As of December 31, 2000, the Company had received 37,450 of the shares of Nexland, Inc. stock associated with this agreement. In July of 2001, the remaining 438 shares owed were received.

NOTE 9 B COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is in the business of exploration of mineral properties. At present, there are no feasibility studies establishing proven and probable reserves.

Although the minerals exploration and mining industries are inherently speculative and subject to complex environmental regulations, the Company is unaware of any pending litigation or of any specific past or prospective matters which could impair the value of its mining claims.

The Company recently undertook the required steps to register as a publicly traded company. In this regard, the Company signed a contract with a securities attorney. The total fees to be paid to the attorney amounted to $25,000. Of this amount, $15,000 has been paid and is recorded as professional fees for year ended December 31, 2000. The remaining $10,000 has, subsequent to September 30, 2001, become due when the Company=s registration statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NOTE 10 B SHORT-TERM NOTES PAYABLE

At December 31, 2000, the Company has recorded notes payable to related parties in the amount of $66,000. This amount is represented by three promissory notes less prior year payment of $4,000. Each note has a stated rate of 12% interest and is due on demand. Two notes were issued in exchange for cash of $20,000. The third note, dated August 25, 2000, was exchanged for 50,000 Nexland Inc. common stock shares, valued at $50,000. In consideration of the third loan, 50,000 common stock shares of the Company were issued as a loan fee. (See Note 5.) During the quarter ended September 30, 2001, a $15,000 note was issued for expenses paid on behalf of the Company by a shareholder. The $15,000 note was issued at a premium of $1,300. Principle plus the amortized premium will be due on or before August 28, 2002. Monthly payments are determined by the shareholder. These notes are unsecured and uncollateralized.

NOTE 11 B RELATED PARTIES

On June 1, 2000, the Company began paying $500 a month for office rent to a related party. There is no written agreement for the space, which is leased on a month-to-month basis.

Three promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $81,000 are due to three shareholders. See Note 10.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This section includes a number of forward- looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this document. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.

We are a start-up, exploration stage company and have not yet generated or realized any revenues from our business operations. We have not conducted any exploration as of September 30, 2001.

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that our auditors believe there is doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated until we begin removing and selling minerals. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than the sale of minerals found on our property. That cash must be raised from other sources. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by others in our company. We must raise cash to implement our project and stay in business. We believe $1,400,000 will remove the uncertainties surrounding our ability to continue as a going concern.

To meet our need for cash we are attempting to raise money from an Initial Public Offering (IPO) that was made effective as of November 6 2001. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise enough money through this offering to stay in business. Whatever money we do raise, will be applied first to exploration and then to development, if development is warranted. If we do not raise all of the money we need from this offering, we will have to find alternative sources, like a second public offering, a private placement of securities, or loans from our officers or others. We have discussed this matter with our officers however, our officers are unwilling to make any commitment to loan us any money at this time. At the present time, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional cash, other than through this offering. If we need additional cash and can't raise it we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely.

We will be conducting research in connection with the exploration of our property. We do intend to buy mining, milling and laboratory equipment if warranted. We do not expect a change in our number of employees.

We must conduct exploration to determine what amount of minerals, if any, exist on our properties and if any minerals which are found can be economically extracted and profitably processed.

Our exploration program is designed to economically explore and evaluate our properties.


We do not claim to have any minerals or reserves whatsoever at this time on any of our properties.

We intend to contact other companies about the properties if we find mineralized materials, in order to explore joint venture possibilities. Because we believe the property will have to be mined using an open pit operation, we believe that it will be in our best interest to try to locate and engage a joint venture partner that has funds available to support the cost of an open pit mine and who has the operational experience to direct the exploration operation. As of the date hereof, we have not identified or contacted any joint venture candidates and there is no assurance we will ever contact any other companies about joint venturing with us in the development of our properties.

No Operating History; Need for Additional Capital

There is no historical financial information about our company. As such we cannot predict our future success. We are an exploration company and have not generated any revenues from operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in the exploration of our properties, and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services.

We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.

Results of Operations

From Inception on February 23, 2000.

We acquired 100% interest in 38 properties. Each property is made up of four placer claims. All but four claims have transferred to us. Steps are currently underway to transfer the four claims to us. This is accomplished through the Bureau of Land Management of the United States of America.

Since inception, we have used our common stock to raise money for our property acquisition and for corporate expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception on February 23, 2000 our company has been engaged in planning for mining exploration.

The company=s principle resources have been acquired through issuance of common stock and convertible preferred stock and loans from shareholders.

As of September 30, 2001 the company had negative working capital of approximately $99,372.00 due primarily as the result of an increase of shareholder loans.

September 30, 2001 the company had total assets of $18,337.00 consisting mainly of a receivable from a related party.


September 30, 2001 the company=s total liabilities were $117,709 primarily to sustain notes to related parties.

Our company has not had revenue from inception. Although there is insufficient capital to explore and develop its mining properties, our company expects to survive and explore its resources with funding from sales of its securities

Results of Operations

Our company posted loses of $32,536.00 for the three months ending September 30, 2001. The principle components of the losses were mining claims expenses and professional and contract fees.

Operating expenses for the 3 months ending September 30, 2001 were $28,314.

As of September 30, 2001, our total assets were $18,337 and our total liabilities were $117,709.
