3.A.3.  Exchange Rates

In this Registration Statement, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian Dollars (CDN$).  The Government of Canada permits a floating exchange rate to determine the value of the Canadian Dollar against the U.S. Dollar (US$).


Table No. 4 sets forth the exchange rates for the Canadian Dollar at the end of the fiscal years ended 8/31/00 thru 8/31/04; the end of the latest nine month interim periods ended 5/31/2005 and 5/31/2004; and, the last eight monthly periods. The average rates, the range of high and low rates, and the closing prices for those periods is disclosed.  


For purposes of this table, the rate of exchange means the noon buying rate in New York City for cable transfers in foreign currencies as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.  The table sets forth the number of Canadian Dollars required under that formula to buy one U.S. Dollar.  The average rate means the average of the exchange rates on the last day of each month during the period.

3.C.  Reasons For The Offer And Use Of Proceeds

--- No Disclosure Necessary ---

3.D.  Risk Factors

Risks Pertaining to Golden Goliath:

Cumulative Unsuccessful Exploration Efforts By Golden Goliath Personnel Could Result In the Company Having to Cease Operations:

The expenditures to be made by Golden Goliath in the exploration of its properties as described herein may not result in discoveries of mineralized material in commercial quantities.  Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable ore deposits and this occurrence could ultimately result in Golden Goliath having to cease operations. Management feels that if exploration efforts were unsuccessful for a period of ten years, the Company would cease operations. If that were the case, investors would lose their entire investment in the company.

Golden Goliath Has No Reserves on the Properties in Which It Has an Interest and If Reserves Are Not Defined the Company Could Have to Cease Operations:

The properties in which Golden Goliath has an interest or the concessions in which Golden Goliath has the right to earn an interest are in the exploratory stage only and are without a known body of ore.  If Golden Goliath does not ultimately find a body of ore, it would have to cease operations. As stated above, management believes that if reserves were not defined on any of the properties on which Golden Goliath has an interest after a period of ten years, the Company would cease operations. If that were the case, investors would lose their entire investment in the Company.

Golden Goliath Has Minimal Positive Cash Flow and No Recent History of Significant Earnings and Is Dependent Upon Public and Private Distributions of Equity to Obtain Capital in Order to Sustain Operations. Public distributions of capital result in dilution to existing shareholders:

None of Golden Goliath ’s properties have advanced to the commercial production stage and Golden Goliath has no history of earnings or positive cash flow from operations.  Golden Goliath does not know if it will ever generate material revenue from mining operations or if it will ever achieve self-sustaining commercial mining operations. Historically, the only source of funds available to Golden Goliath has been through the sale of its common shares. Any future additional equity financing would cause dilution to current stockholders.


Golden Goliath currently has 3,345,000 share purchase options outstanding and 1,400,000-share purchase warrants outstanding. If all of the share purchase warrants and share purchase options were exercised, the number of common shares issued and outstanding would increase from 37,246,311(as of 5/31/2005) to 41,991,311.  This represents an increase of 13% in the number of shares issued and outstanding and would result in dilution to current shareholders.


Dilution Through Employee/Director/Consultant Options Could Adversely Affect Golden Goliath’s Stockholders

Because the success of Golden Goliath is highly dependent upon its respective employees, the Company has granted to some or all of its key employees, Directors and consultants options to purchase common shares as non-cash incentives.  To the extent that significant numbers of such options may be granted and exercised, the interests of the other stockholders of the Company may be diluted. There are currently 3,345,000 share purchase options outstanding, which, if exercised, would result in an additional 3,345,000 common shares being issued and outstanding. (For a breakdown of dilution, refer to the risk factor entitled: “Golden Goliath Has Minimal Positive Cash Flow and No Recent History of Significant Earnings and Is Dependent Upon Public and Private Distributions of Equity to Obtain Capital in Order to Sustain Operations. Public distributions of capital result in dilution to existing shareholders”)

The Amount of Capital Necessary to Meet All Environmental Regulations Associated with the Exploration Programs of Golden Goliath Could Be In An Amount Great Enough to Force Golden Goliath to Cease Operations:

The current and anticipated future operations of Golden Goliath, including further exploration activities require permits from various Federal and State governmental authorities in Mexico.   Such operations are subject to various laws governing land use, the protection of the environment, production, exports, taxes, labor standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, mine safety and other matters.  Unfavorable amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing operations and activities of resource exploration companies, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a materially adverse impact on the Company and cause increases in capital expenditures which could result in a cessation of operations by the Company.


Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions there under, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions. Parties engaged in resource exploration may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of the mining activities and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violation of applicable laws or regulations.


Large increases in capital expenditures resulting from any of the above factors could force Golden Goliath to cease operations. If that were the case, investors would lose their entire investment in the Company.

The Risks Associated with Penny Stock Classification Could Affect the Marketability of the Common Stock of Golden Goliath and Shareholders Could Find It Difficult to Sell Their Stock:

Golden Goliath’s stock is subject to “penny stock” rules as defined in 1934 Securities and Exchange Act rule 3a51-1.  The Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks.  Golden Goliath ’s common shares are subject to these penny stock rules. Transaction costs associated with purchases and sales of penny stocks are likely to be higher than those for other securities.  Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than U.S. $5.00 (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 the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market.  The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.  The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.


In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such 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 level of trading activity in the secondary market for the Company’s common shares in the United States and shareholders may find it more difficult to sell their shares.

Golden Goliath is Dependent on Key Personnel and the Absence of Any of These Individuals Could Result in the Company Having to Cease Operations:

While engaged in the business of exploring mineral properties, the nature of Golden Goliath’s business, its ability to continue its exploration of potential exploration projects, and to develop a competitive edge in the marketplace, depends, in large part, on its ability to attract and maintain qualified key management personnel.  Competition for such personnel is intense and the Company may not be able to attract and retain such personnel.  Golden Goliath’s growth will depend, on the efforts of its Senior Management, particularly its President, J. Paul Sorbara, its Corporate Secretary, Stephan Pearce and its Board of Directors that includes Richard Hughes, Ing. Daniel Nofrietta, Sean Boyd, Dr. Andrew Robertson, Robert Hutchison and Edward Sorbara.


U.S. Investors May Not Be Able to Enforce Their Civil Liabilities Against Us or Our Directors, Controlling Persons and Officers

It may be difficult to bring and enforce suits against Golden Goliath.  Golden Goliath is a corporation incorporated in the province of British Columbia under the British Columbia Corporations Act.  A majority of the Company's directors must be residents of Canada, and all or substantial portions of their assets are located outside of the United States, predominately in Canada.  As a result, it may be difficult for U.S. holders of our common shares to effect service of process on these persons within the United States or to realize in the United States upon judgments rendered against them.  In addition, a shareholder should not assume that the courts of Canada (i) would enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions against us or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws or other laws of the United States, or (ii) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against us or such persons predicated upon the U.S. federal securities laws or other laws of the United States.


However, U.S. laws would generally be enforced by a Canadian court provided that those laws are not contrary to Canadian public policy, are not foreign penal laws or laws that deal with taxation or the taking of property by a foreign government and provided that they are in compliance with applicable Canadian legislation regarding the limitation of actions.  Also, a Canadian court would generally recognize a judgment obtained in a U.S. Court except, for example:

  a) where the U.S. court where the judgment was rendered had no jurisdiction according to applicable Canadian law;

  b) the judgment was subject to ordinary remedy (appeal, judicial review and any other judicial proceeding which renders the judgment not final, conclusive or enforceable under the laws of the applicable state) or not final, conclusive or enforceable under the laws of the applicable state;

  c) the judgment was obtained by fraud or in any manner contrary to natural justice or rendered in contravention of fundamental principles of procedure;

  d) a dispute between the same parties, based on the same subject matter has given rise to a judgment rendered in a Canadian court or has been decided in a third country and the judgment meets the necessary conditions for recognition in a Canadian court;

  e) the outcome of the judgment of the U.S. court was inconsistent with Canadian public policy;

  f) the judgment enforces obligations arising from foreign penal laws or laws that deal with taxation or the taking of property by a foreign government; or

  g) there has not been compliance with applicable Canadian law dealing with the limitation of actions.


As a "foreign private issuer”, Golden Goliath is exempt from the Section 14 proxy rules and Section 16 of the 1934 Securities Act. This could result in shareholders having less complete and timely Data

The submission of proxy and annual meeting of shareholder information (prepared to Canadian standards) on Form 6-K may result in shareholders having less complete and timely data.  The exemption from Section 16 rules regarding sales of common shares by insiders may result in shareholders having less data.

Risks Pertaining to the Industry

Mineral Prices May Not Support Corporate Profit for Golden Goliath:

The resource exploration industry is intensely competitive and even if commercial quantities of mineral resources are developed (which is not guaranteed), a profitable market may not exist for the sale.  If a profitable market does not exist, Golden Goliath could have to cease operations.

Operating Hazards and Risks Associated with the Exploration-stage Mining Industry Could Result in Golden Goliath Having to Cease Operations:

Resource exploration activities generally involve a high degree of risk.  Hazards such as unusual or unexpected formations and other conditions are involved.  Operations in which Golden Goliath has a direct or indirect interest will be subject to all the hazards and risks normally incidental to exploration for precious and base metals, any of which could result in work stoppages, damage to or destruction of exploration facilities, damage to life and property, environmental damage and legal liability for any or all damage.  Golden Goliath may become subject to liability for cave-ins and other hazards for which it cannot insure or against which it may elect not to insure where premium costs are disproportionate to the Company’s perception of the relevant risks.  The payment of such insurance premiums and of such liabilities would reduce the funds available for exploration activities and could force Golden Goliath to cease operations.

4.B.  BUSINESS OVERVIEW


Historical Corporate Development

Golden Goliath is a natural resource company currently engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources in Canada and Mexico. In Mexico, Golden Goliath operates through its wholly owned subsidiary, Minera Delta S.A. de C.V.


The Company completed an initial public offering in October of 2000. This financing consisted of the sale of 9,000,000 units at a price of $0.50 per unit. Each unit consisted of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each common share purchase warrant entitled the holder to purchase one additional common share at a price of $0.75 until October 17, 2002. None of these share purchase warrants were subsequently converted into common shares.


During 2001 the Company conducted a major exploration program on a portion of its mineral properties doing geochemical, geophysical and geological surveying.


In November 2001, the Company launched the second phase work program, which consisted of exploratory drilling. This drilling program had a budget of $1 million, with about 20 to 24 holes planned, and a 5 to 6 month schedule to complete. The Company commenced diamond drilling but due to technical difficulties, equipment failure and poor core recovery the Company switched to reverse circulation drilling in April 2002.


In late April 2002 the Company announced the acquisition of a 100% interest in a package of ten claims, totaling 1,946 hectares located in the center of the Uruachic camp. This property is contiguous to the Company’s other Uruachic claims and has extensive underground development. The property was acquired as a result of a default on amounts owed to the Company according to a promissory note.


As disclosed earlier in ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY, FINANCINGS, Golden Goliath completed two financings in June 2002 which enabled it to continue its drilling program. The Company raised a total of $1,074,510 through the issue of 2,387,800 shares pursuant to two private placements.


Another financing was completed in December 2002 through which the Company sold 1,388,888 shares raising approximately $250,000.


For the remainder of 2002, the Company engaged in exploration work on its properties.


The Company resumed exploratory drilling on its Corona Property in January 2003. New roads were constructed to accommodate movement of drilling equipment. By the end of February 2003, fifteen reverse circulation drill holes had been completed. The results from this drilling program were announced on April 2, 2003 at which time the Company stated that the mineralized zone had been expanded from an area of 200 meters by 400 meters to an area of 400 meters by 700 meters.


In July 2003, the Company began an exploration program on its Las Bolas Project, which it acquired in April 2003.


The exploration work on the Las Bolas Project continued, after a two-week holiday break beginning in mid-December 2003, in 2004. This exploration work consisted of reverse-circulation exploratory drilling and trenching.


At the end of 2004, the Company announced that the exploration work, which was completed during the year, discovered additional silver mineralization. Because of this discovery, the Company decided to concentrate its exploration efforts in 2005 on the Las Bolas Project in an effort to define an economically viable ore body. (An economically viable ore body has not been defined on any of Golden Goliath’s properties to date and there is no guarantee that one will ever be defined.)


Induced polarization and magnetic surveys were conducted on the Las Bolas Project and the results were announced in early March 2005. This work covered an area of 2.4 by 1.4 kilometers and defined drill targets which could host additional mineralization. Based on these results, the Company decided to start an exploratory program consisting of diamond drilling which would encompass approximately 3000 meters. In late March 2005, the Company engaged Totem Drilling, an unrelated company, to do this work. The drilling contract was terminated on May 16, 2005, as the contractor was unable to drill to the depth contracted for by the Company.


Since the end of March 2005, the Company has been working on the rehabilitation of some of the underground tunnels on the Las Bolas Project. Most of these efforts are on the Las Bolas tunnel, which is approximately 110 meters below the surface.  



Plan Of Operations


Source of Funds for Fiscal 2005/2006, Ending August 31st

Golden Goliath ’s primary source of funds since incorporation has been through the issuance of common shares.


Golden Goliath had a working capital balance of $1,301,606 on 5/31/2005. Golden Goliath intends to use its working capital to complete exploration work on the properties in which it has and interest, particularly the Las Bolas Project, and for general working capital.


Use of Funds for Fiscal 2006/2007

During Fiscal 2006 and Fiscal 2007, respectively, Golden Goliath estimates that it might expend $360,000 and $360,000 on general/administrative expenses including property evaluation costs prior to acquisition .  During Fiscal 2006 and Fiscal 2007 respectively, Golden Goliath estimates that it might expend $390,000 and $417,000 on property acquisition/exploration expenses.


Anticipated Changes to Facilities/Employees

Management of Golden Goliath anticipates no changes to either facilities or employees in the near future.


United States vs. Foreign Sales/Assets

Golden Goliath has had no revenue during the past five fiscal years.

4.C. Organization Structure

Golden Goliath Resources Ltd. (Golden Goliath or the “Company”) was incorporated in British Columbia under the Company Act (British Columbia) on June 12, 1996 by Certificate of Incorporation under the name 521858 B.C. Ltd. and was granted a certificate of change of name on September 10, 1998 under the name of Golden Goliath Resources Ltd. The authorized capital of the Company consists of 100,000,000 common shares without par value.


4.D.  Property, Plant and Equipment

This section first discloses where Golden Goliath’s office is located in Canada and then describes the mineral properties in which Golden Goliath has an interest. In the description of the mineral properties, it is disclosed that these properties are only exploration stage properties and that a substantial amount of capital will have to be spent on each property before management will know if they contain commercially viable mineral deposits.


Golden Goliath’s executive offices are located in rented premises of approximately 1,500 sq. ft. at Suite 711, 675 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia CANADA V6B 1N2.  Golden Goliath began occupying these facilities on January 2001.  Monthly rent is $1,000.


All of the Companies current mineral exploration properties except one (Chamizal) are located in close proximity to each other within the historic mining district of Uruachic in Chihuahua, Mexico. Golden Goliath has a 100% interest in 8,415 hectares (20,794 acres) in the district.


During fiscal 2004 and 2005, the Company has expended the majority of its exploration efforts and funds on the Las Bolas – Los Hilos property. During fiscal 2006, management anticipates continuing to primarily explore the Las Bolas – Los Hilos property and may seek joint-venture partners for other properties within its portfolio.


Properties within the Uruachic Mining District


The Company currently has a 100% interest in claims grouped into 7 properties totaling 20,794 acres within the Uruachic Mining District.


[goldengoliath20fregistrat002.jpg]



Accessibility, Infrastructure, Climate, and Physiography


The Uruachi district is located approximately 200 kilometers southwest of the city of Chihuahua. The town of Uruachi of 1,000 people is located in the approximate center of the project area. Access to the area is via a paved highway from the city of Chihuahua to Las Estrellas, then via a gravel road to the project area. Total travel time from Chihuahua is about 6 hours. Local services, such as gasoline and food, are available in Uruachi. Power lines run from Las Estrellas to Uruachi.


The project area is located in the Sierra Madre Occidental mountain range, and elevations in the area are from 1000 meters to 2000 meters in height. Topography is moderate to rugged.  During winter from November to January, the temperature can drop below freezing and snow and ice are common at the higher elevations. During July and August, rain is very common and roads are often washed out. Vegetation at lower elevations is tropical, while higher elevations are covered by oak and pine forests.


Regional and Project Area Geology


The area is overlain by the Lower and Upper Volcanic Group rocks deposited by Mesozoic and older rock units. The Lower Volcanic Group reaches up to 2 kilometers in thickness. Most of the rocks are of andesitic composition, and are more altered than the rocks of the Upper Volcanic Group. They are also the main host rock for most of the known mineral showings, and are divided into three volcanoclastic sequences. Steep vertical cliffs of the Upper Volcanic Group indicate possible caldera development and presence of collapsed blocks. Mineralization is often related to rim structures, presence of intrusions, and possibly is manifested on the surface via color anomalies rimming the caldera close to the contact between the rocks belonging to the Lower and Upper Volcanic Groups.


Known mineral deposits in the area are related to the presence of caldera, intrusions, and structures. They are often of the vein type commonly associated with the presence of quartz vein systems of the epithermal type. Six types of geological targets have been defined in the Uruachi area. These are:


1.

Old showings and ore shoots, as well as low grade mineralization in the wall rock;


2.

Intrusive breccia which has been encountered in the San Timoteo and Reforma properties;


3.

Tabular silver mineralization hosted in brecciated rock close encountered in the River Zone on the Oteros property;


4.

Stratabound base metal mineralization hosted in bedded tuffs encountered on the San Timoteo property;


5.

Siliceous structures in areas of intense silicification on the Reforma property;


6.

Wide-spread mineralization located close to the contact between underlying intrusive and overlying siliceous welded tuffs or flows in the Northeast Zone on the Corona property.


History


The town of Uruachi was incorporated in 1736 within close proximity to several operating underground mines. Mining activity began several hundred years ago, but most of the historical production occurred between 1750 and 1825. Activity resumed in the early 1900’s as small miners reopened some of the old underground workings. This activity ended during the middle of the century, and very little modern exploration has been conducted in the area until the Company’s acquisition of claims within the project area.



1. The Las Bolas – Los Hilos Property

The Las Bolas – Los Hilos Property is without known reserves and the work being done by Golden Goliath is exploratory in nature. Golden Goliath’s interest in this property stemmed from earlier work, as described below, that was done in the area.


Acquisition of Interest

Golden Goliath acquired a 100% interest in this property as a result of a default on a promissory held by Golden Goliath from Minera Uruachic S.A. de C.V. (“Minera Uruachic”). Minera Uruachic originally purchased the claims from local residents. Minera Uruachic is a related company to Golden Goliath in that it is controlled by J. Paul Sorbara, the President of Golden Goliath and Daniel Nofrietta Fernandez, a Director of Golden Goliath.


Location

This property is located in the Uruachi District in the Sierra Madre Occidental Mountains in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico, approximately 200 kilometers southwest of the city of Chihuahua. The property consists of 5 exploration claims totaling 420 hectares.


[goldengoliath20fregistrat004.jpg]



Exploration History


The property contains a number of historical underground workings which were first exploited for gold and silver at least 200 years ago.


An exploration program was conducted in May 2000. This program consisted of opening the entrances to old mine tunnels which had collapsed and had been inaccessible for over 100 years, underground rehabilitation, underground mapping and sampling of 1,600 metres of accessible underground workings. The exploration program also included cutting 11.9 km of line and conducting an I.P. survey and mapping over the established grid. A total of 222 rock chip samples were collected and 10.8 km of IP survey were conducted. The purpose of the program was to evaluate the mineralization within the known underground workings and to test the 1,200 metre long, east– west structural trend between the Las Bolas and Los Hilos workings and to determine the potential of this zone for hosting an epithermal silver–gold deposit.


A total of 222 rock chip samples were collected during the program, averaging 0.40 gpt (grams per tonne) gold and 165 gpt silver (2.68 gm/tonne or 0.08 oz/ton total gold equivalent). Of these, 66 samples collected along 266 metres of accessible underground workings averaged 0.49 gpt gold and 439.23 gpt silver (6.57 gm/tonne or 0.19 oz/ton total gold equivalent). The seven underground workings mapped and sampled included the old Gambusino mine, which is believed to be in part the upper extension of the Las Bolas mine. The 107 samples collected along the 420 metres of accessible workings assayed 0.38 gpt gold and 320.69 grams per ton of silver (4.82 gm/tonne or 0.14 oz/ton total gold equivalent).


The Los Hilos mine, located about 1000 metres east of the Las Bolas tunnel, was also examined. The report, which resulted from that work, summarizes results from previous rock chip sampling programs along the 158 metres of accessible workings. The most favourable results indicated 158 metres averaging 0.45 gpt gold and 20.85 gpt silver. This includes a 30 metre section that averaged 0.79 gpt gold and 43.08 gpt silver (1.39 gm/tonne or 0.04 oz/ton total gold equivalent). Surface sampling of outcrops and grabs from other small adits/pits have yielded anomalous gold and silver values over the entire grid area.


The Induced Polarization survey conducted during the exploration program outlined 13 different drill target areas located along a 275 meter wide, steep-walled east-west trending geophysical structure.


Past surface sampling on the Don Lazaro claim, also part of this property, by Company geologists returned assays from five samples averaging 3.28 gpt gold and 30.38 gpt silver (3.70 gm/tonne or 0.11 oz/ton total gold equivalent) from outcrop on an east-west ridge situated about 200 metres south of the Las Bolas property.


Field preparation for the first ever drilling conducted on the property began in the fall of 2003. The work included mapping and check sampling of old mine tunnels, followed by the construction of drill access roads and drill pads. Bulldozer work discovered additional unknown mine tunnels which were then cleaned and sampled.


Reverse Circulation drilling commenced in November 2003 and ended in February 2004. A total of 3,150 metres was completed, and although core recovery was poor and averaged 58%, results were encouraging, including a section of 15.25 metres in hole B03-11 averaging 326.6 gm silver/tonne and 0.04 gm gold/tonne and Hole B04-3 returned an average of 154.13 gms silver/tonne and 3.22 gms gold/tonne over a width of 40 feet.


The RC drill program was followed by a program of backhoe trenching and mini bulk sampling of some of the main old workings. A total of 564 metres of trenches was excavated, and additional old mine tunnels were opened also made accessible to allow mapping and sampling. During the summer of 2004, further prospecting, mapping and sampling was performed on the eastern portion of the property. To prepare for additional drilling, a grid was established near old mine workings on the southeastern part of the Nopalera claim. The grid was then used to conduct detailed geological mapping as well as Induced Polarization and Magnetic surveys.








Recent and Anticipated Exploration


Access roads and drill pads were prepared for drilling targets identified through the detailed mapping and surveys. Diamond drilling began in April 2005. Drilling problems in the first hole of the program was caused by clay seams along suspected faults that swelled when contacted by drill water. After two and a half weeks of drilling, the first hole had reached a depth of only 138.07 meters, well above target depth. Therefore, management decided to terminate the diamond drill program until equipment more suited to the conditions would be available. This equipment would be a rotary air drill with the capability to convert to diamond coring which would seal off the clay seams which caused the problems in the Spring 2005 program.


Beginning in June 2005, work began on rehabilitating the historic Los Bolas tunnel. The tunnel lies 130 meters vertically below the surface colar of the historic Arbolito shaft, but is blocked by rock falls before it reaches the Arbolito. Very high grade sulphide material has been found in samples taken from the mouth of the Los Bolas tunnel as well as from the Arbolito dump, which suggests previous miners used the Los Bolas to haul ore from the lower levels of the Arbolito shaft. During the clearing process, the Company is also taking samples from the newly accessed areas and studying the possibility of drilling this area from underground.


During the Fall of 2005, the Company has planned 3,000 meters of drilling in the Arbolito shaft area as well as around the historic Flor Del Trigo mine area 5 kilometers to the east.


2. Corona Property


The Corona Property is without known reserves and the work being done by Golden Goliath is exploratory in nature. Golden Goliath’s interest in this property stemmed from earlier work, as described below, that was done in the area.


Acquisition of Interest

Golden Goliath has a 100% interest in this property. It consists of 6 exploration claims totaling 850 hectares (2,100 acres). One of the claims was acquired from an arms-length party and is subject to a 3% NSR (capped at $2,000,000) while 3 claims were staked by the Minera Delta before acquisition by the Company and the remaining 2 claims were staked by the Company. None of the staked claims have any royalties due.


Because the Company has been concentrating its exploration efforts on the Los Hilos-Las Bolas property, management determined it was prudent to write-down the carrying value of this property. In the Fiscal Year ended August 31, 2003, the Company wrote-down the value of the property by $(630,547). During the Fiscal Year ended August 31, 2004, the Company wrote-down the value of the property by a further $(642,164).


Location


The property is located in the Uruachic mining district, approximately 14 kilometers west-southwest of the town of Uruachic.


Exploration History


Two known veins on the property, Esperanza and La Mula have had short adits driven, and numerous old pits are present in breccia zones, although no written records are available with the results of these workings. The Company began staking the property in 1993 and 1994.


In 1993, the property was optioned to Levelland Energy & Resources, an arms-length exploration company, who later further optioned the property to Amcorp Industries. The option agreements were terminated by 1996.


The Company conducted limited prospecting and an Aerodat survey up to the year 2000. After completion of its initial public offering, the Company completed sampling and mapping and established a detailed survey grid. Soil and rock geochemical surveys were followed by Magnetic and Induced Polarization Surveys.  This work identified 4 areas of old workings. Several existing shafts were reopened and sampled in order to define drill targets.


During 2002 and 2003, the Company completed 59 reverse circular drill holes on the property. This work was successful in outlining the Northeast Zone, which covers and area of widespread gold mineralization and currently consists of an area of 400 by 700 meters in size. The zone remains open in several directions.


Anticipated Exploration


Detailed structural mapping is needed to further define the Northeast Zone and identify drill targets. The Company is planning to begin the mapping in the fall of 2005 which will be followed by a new drill program.



3.  San Timoteo Property


The San Timoteo Property is without known reserves and the work being done by Golden Goliath is exploratory in nature. Golden Goliath’s interest in this property stemmed from earlier work, as described below, that was done in the area.


Acquisition of Interest

Golden Goliath has a 100% interest in this property. It consists of 5 exploration claims totaling 4,164 hectares (10,090 acres). Minera Delta originally acquired claims from arms-length parties in 1997 and 1999, while additional claims were staked at a later date. There are no royalties due on any of the claims.


Location


The property is located in the Uruachic mining district, approximately 3 kilometers east-northeast of the town of Uruachic.


Exploration History


Production from one of the property’s claims was recorded in the early 1800’s to the 1950’s. Several sets of underground workings exist on the property. The first recorded modern exploration was conducted by Minera Delta in 1997 which includes an aerial survey flown by Aerodat. This survey included VLF-em, magnetic, radiometric, and six channel em surveys.


Detailed ground geophysical surveys and geochemical sampling and mapping were conducted in 2001. This work defined a drill target area 1.3 kilometers long by 600 meters wide. Within an area of 750 meters by 250, 8 diamond drill holes were completed in March 2001. 4 holes were drilled in the vicinity of the old San Timoteo workings, and although core recovery was very poor (14-22%), Hole #2 intersected a 4.55 meter section averaging 1.09 g/t gold and 132 g/t silver. 4 holes were drilled in the porphyry zone to the southwest, with the majority of the samples mineralized to some degree, ranging from 0.1 g/t to 1.4 g/t gold and up to 65 g/t silver.


Anticipated Exploration


Several of the target areas on the property, including the area in the vicinity of the historic San Martin mine workings, have yet to be drill tested as there is currently no road access to the area. Management would like to conduct further exploration on the property, either directly or through a joint-venture or option agreement.


4.  Nueva Union


The Nueva Union Property is without known reserves and the work being done by Golden Goliath is exploratory in nature. Golden Goliath’s interest in this property stemmed from earlier work, as described below, that was done in the area.


Acquisition of Interest

Golden Goliath has a 100% interest in this property. It consists of 1 exploration claim totaling 212 hectares. Minera Delta originally staked the claim in 1997. There is no royalty due on the property.


Location


The property is located in the Uruachic mining district, approximately 2.5 kilometers east-northeast of the town of Uruachic. It is almost contiguous to the Company’s San Timoteo property.


Exploration History


Mining activity on and near the property dates to the early 1800’s. The property was staked to cover a large, intense gossan surrounding several old mine tunnels on adjacent claims. After completing its Initial Public Offering, the Company established a survey grid which was used to conduct detailed geological mapping, soil and rock geochemical surveys, and Magnetic and Induced Polarization surveys. This work determined that the eastern portion of the claim held less exploration potential, and it was dropped from the claim.


Anticipated Exploration


At least two coincident geochemical and geophysical targets have been identified on the property, but have yet to bet tested. There has been no drilling conducted on the property. The Company may seek a joint-venture partner or an option agreement to advance exploration on the property.


5.  La Reforma


The La Reforma Property is without known reserves and the work being done by Golden Goliath is exploratory in nature. Golden Goliath’s interest in this property stemmed from earlier work, as described below, that was done in the area.


Acquisition of Interest

Golden Goliath has a 100% interest in this property. It consists of 2 exploration claims totaling 562.5 hectares (1,390 acres). Minera Delta originally acquired the first claim in 1994 from an arms-length party, which includes a 1% NSR which can be acquired by the Company for a payment of $500,000. In 1994, the Company optioned a 75% interest in the property to Levelland Energy & Resources Ltd. before reacquiring the interest in 1997. Additional claims were later staked to cover anomalies along the property’s northeast corner.


Because the Company is concentrating its exploration efforts on the Los Hilos-Las Bolas property, management determined it was prudent to write-down the carrying value of this property. During the Fiscal Year ended August 31, 2003, the Company wrote-down the value of the property by $(425,591).


Location


The property is located in the Uruachic mining district, approximately 2.5 kilometers west-northwest of the town of Uruachic.


Exploration History


Historic workings consisting of a few old tunnels exist in the central portion of the property, which are underlain by a large gossan. These tunnels have not been rehabilitated. There is also evidence of historic sampling and trenching occurs in several other areas of the property.


After the Company’s Initial Public Offering, the Company performed preliminary mapping and sampling, and the establishment of a detailed survey grid. This grid was used to conduct detailed soil and rock geochemistry, geological and alteration mapping, as well as Induced Polarization and Magnetic geophysical surveys. This work was followed by road building to access target areas, and a drill program consisting of 10 short reverse circulation drill holes. Drilling concentrated in a regional northeast to northwest mineralized trend which hosts numerous siliceous structures. The Dickite Zone is the most significant mineralized occurance identified to date. Two drill holes in the Dickite Zone intercepted anomalous gold mineralization.


Anticipated Exploration


Further drilling is required to test mineralization at depth and to the north along the trend. Additional surface exploration is also recommended test for possible extensions of the Dickite Zone to the south. The Company may conduct further exploration itself, or seek a joint-venture partner or optionee to fund additional exploration.


6.  Oteros/La Esperanza  Property


The Oteros/La Esperanza Property is without known reserves and the work being done by Golden Goliath is exploratory in nature. Golden Goliath’s interest in this property stemmed from earlier work, as described below, that was performed in the area.


Acquisition of Interest

Golden Goliath has a 100% interest in this property. It consists of 2 exploration claims totaling 398 hectares (983 acres). The Oteros claim was originally staked by Minera Delta, while the La Esperanza claim was acquired from an arms-length individual. The Las Esperanza claim is subject to a 2% NSR, which is capped at CDN$1,000,000.


In 1994, the claims were optioned to Levelland Energy & Resources and Canarc Resources Corp.  Canarc performed a limited amount of exploration on the claims before Canarc dropped its option and the Company reacquired a 100% interest in the claims.


Because the Company is concentrating its exploration efforts on the Los Hilos-Las Bolas property, management determined it was prudent to write-down the carrying value of this property. During the Fiscal Year ended August 31, 2004, the Company wrote down the value of the property by $(527,535).


Location


The property is located in the Uruachic mining district, approximately 5.5 kilometers south of the town of Uruachic.


Exploration History


During its option period, Canarc completed some road building and trenching on the property. After reacquiring a 100% interest in the project, Minera Delta took 219 surface samples and discovered a historical shaft on the Oteros claim. In 1997, Minera Delta began to excavate this shaft and took grab samples from the exposed faces. After the Company’s Initial Public Offering, a survey grid and detailed geological mapping, soil and rock geochemical surveys, as well as Magnetic and Induced Polarization surveys were completed on the property.


The Aerodat aerial geophysical survey outlined two resistivity lows in the north central Oteros mineral claim. These anomalies are on the east and west flanks of the vein swarm on the La Esperanza mineral claim.  A total of 14 short drill holes tested the central and southeastern portions of the Oteros claim with limited success. A second large target lies west of the area of this work and remains untested.


Anticipated Exploration


The Company is seeking to enter into an option agreement with an arms-length party to fund additional exploration on the property.


7.  Nopalera, Flor and Del Trigo Claims


The Nopalera, Flor and Del Trigo claims are without known reserves and the work being done by Golden Goliath is exploratory in nature. Golden Goliath’s interest in these claims is due to their close proximity to the Los Hilos-Las Bolas property.


Acquisition of Interest

Golden Goliath has a 100% interest in these claims. These claims total 1,349 hectares. The claims were originally acquired by Minera Uruachic, and acquired by the Company through the default of a promissory note held by the Company by Minera Uruachic. Minera Uruachic is a related company to Golden Goliath in that it is controlled by J. Paul Sorbara, the President of Golden Goliath and Daniel Nofrietta Fernandez, a Director of Golden Goliath.


Location


The claims are located in the Uruachic mining district, contiguous to the Company’s Los Hilos-Las Bolas property.


Exploration History


The Company has conducted geological mapping and sampling on the claims, as well as an Induced Polarization geophysical survey on a grid established over much of the claims’ area. This survey outlined several targets, including a strong target beneath old mine working on the Flor claim.


Anticipated Exploration


Several targets on the claims are planned for drill testing in conjunction with the upcoming drill program on the Los Hilos-Las Bolas property during the Fall of 2005.


8.  Bufalo, La Hermosa and La Barranca Claims


The Bufalo, La Hermosa claims are without known reserves and the work being done by Golden Goliath is exploratory in nature. Golden Goliath’s interest in these claims is due to results of regional prospecting work conducted in the area.


Acquisition of Interest

Golden Goliath has a 100% interest in these claims. These claims total 826 hectares. The La Hermosa and La Barranca claims were staked by the Company, while the Bufalo claim was staked by Industrias Penoles (“Penoles”) after being invited to visit the Company’s properties. Penoles later assigned the claims to the Company for reimbursement of its staking costs.  


Location


The claims are located on the perimeter of the Uruachic mining district.


Exploration History


The Company has performed only limited exploration work on the claims. All were staked due to positive results from a regional prospecting program. The La Barranca claim hosts a mineralized showing known as Cobrizo, which the Company has mapped and sampled.


Anticipated Exploration


At this time, the Company intends to conduct no exploration work on the claims in fiscal 2006. Golden Goliath will hold the claims and seek a possible joint-venture partner to fund any further exploration on these claims.


9.  Chamizal Property


The Chamizal property is the Company’s only property not located in the Uruachic mining district. The property is without known reserves and the work being done by Golden Goliath is exploratory in nature. Golden Goliath’s interest in this property is due to historical workings in the area and the property’s favorable geological setting.


Acquisition of Interest

Golden Goliath has a 100% interest in the property, which totals 689 hectares. The property was staked by Minera Delta in 1998. There are no royalties due on the property.


Accessibility, Infrastructure, Climate, and Physiography


Chamizal is located in central Chihuahua State, Mexico, approximately 85 kilometers south of the city of Chihuahua. Access is from Chihuahua on a paved state highway and paved secondary roads to the village of El Chamizal, then 5 kilometers west on gravel tracks to the property. Water is available from tributary of the Rio Conchos River which flows through the town of El Chamizal.


The property is in the Sierra de Chaconena, and elevation ranges from 1,560 to 2,330 meters above sea level. Topography is rugged, and is sparsely covered by desert vegetation.


Regional and Project Area Geology


The property is underlain by the Aurora Limestone unit that is known to host Lead-Zinc-Silver mineralization in other areas in the district. There are several areas of historic mine workings on the property, including the southwestern workings which comprise two tunnels of more than 400 meters in length. These tunnels contain large stopes where Lead-Zinc-Silver mineralization has been mined previously.


Exploration History


The Company has performed only limited exploration work on the claims. Surface mapping and sampling has had limited success. It has been recommended that comprehensive geophysical surveys be performed on the property in order to define drill targets.


Anticipated Exploration


At this time, the Company intends to conduct no exploration work on the property in fiscal 2006. Golden Goliath will continue to hold the property while it seeks a joint-venture partner to fund exploration work.





ITEM 5.  OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

The following discussion for the Fiscal Years Ended 8/31/2004, 8/31/2003 and 8/31/2002 and for the nine month fiscal periods ended 5/31/2005, 5/31/2004 and 5/31/2003 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of Golden Goliath and the notes thereto.


Overview

During Fiscal 2001, ended August 31st, Golden Goliath completed its initial public offering and raised $4,500,000 through the sale of 9,000,000 shares. Also the Company raised $18,156 pursuant to the exercise of share purchase warrants related to a private placement, which occurred prior to the initial public offering.


During Fiscal 2002, ended August 31st, Golden Goliath raised $950,760 through the sale of 2,112,800 shares.


During Fiscal 2003, ended August 31st, Golden Goliath raised $1,113,900 through the sale of 7,988,888 shares.


During Fiscal 2004, ended August 31st, Golden Goliath raised $2,243,922 through the sale of 8,873,511 shares.


During the nine month fiscal period ended May 31, 2005, Golden Goliath raised no additional capital.


Results of Operations

The Nine Months Ended 5/31/2005 vs. the Nine Months Ended 5/31/2004

The Company spent $362,198 on its Mexican properties during the nine months ending May 31, 2005. Work was largely focused on diamond drilling and geology and mapping on its Los Hilos - Las Bolas properties.


For the quarter ended May 31, 2005, the Company incurred a net loss of $127,636 compared to a net loss of $93,724 for the previous quarter ended February 28, 2005. The significant difference between the two quarters was a loss on foreign exchange of $6,348 in the most recent quarter compared to a gain of $15,970 the prior quarter as a result of fluctuations in the value of the Canadian dollar to the Mexican Peso.


For the quarter ended May 31, 2005 there was a total of $127,648 in administrative expenses. The significant variances in the past quarter from the previous one include increases in the category of rent and utilities in the amount of $7,753, travel expenses in the amount of $4,066 and office and general in the amount of $4,331. Travel expenses were up to $7,320 from $3,254 as the Company began its drilling program in Mexico during the quarter ended May 31, 2005. The category of office and general increased due to the higher level of business activity that occurred as a result of the drilling program. All other expenses were similar to prior quarters.


For the nine months ended May 31, 2005, the Company incurred a net loss of $$455,009 compared to a net loss of $329,881 for the previous nine months ended May 31, 2004. Two significant differences between the two fiscal periods were increases in interest income in the amount of approximately $20,000 (For the nine-month fiscal period ended May 31, 2005 interest income was $22,077 as compared to $1,442 for the nine month fiscal period ended May 31, 2004) and Stock based compensation in the amount of $133,559.


The reason for the higher interest income was that in the latter fiscal period the Company maintained higher cash balances in its deposit accounts.


The reason for the significant increase in stock based compensation was that the Company applied the fair value based method of accounting for stock based compensation granted to employees, directors and consultants The $133,599 fair value of the options issued since September 1, 2004 was estimated using an option-pricing model. (This is fully explained in noted 3 and 7 to the unaudited financial statements for the fiscal period ended May 31, 2005.


For the nine months ended May 31, 2005 there was a total of $480,671 in administrative expenses. The significant variances in the nine months ended May 31, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended May 31, 2004 include increases in the following categories:


1.

Management fees increased by $37,000. This was due primarily to the higher level of business activity associated with the property exploration in Mexico.

2.

The category of “office and General” increased by $19,759.  This increase was also due to the higher level of overall business activity which was made possible by the additional funding received by the Company during the first nine months of Fiscal 2005.

3.

Professional fees decreased slightly by $8,654. This was due to increased legal and accounting fees resulting from the higher level of business activity in the prior nine-month period.


As of May 31, 2005, deferred mineral property exploration costs totaled $2,324,032 compared to $1,961,834 at August 31, 2004. In the current fiscal year, the Company has spent $105,437 on diamond drilling and $142,635 doing geology and mapping on its Los Hilos, Las Bolas and Nopalera properties. In addition, the Company spent $16,424 on assaying, $45,455 on property taxes and passage rights and $20,813 on salaries in Mexico. These expenditures relate mainly to the Company’s Los Hilos and Las Bolas properties.


Fiscal 2004 Ended 8/31/2004 vs. Fiscal 2003 Ended 8/31/2003

Golden Goliath had no income from operations during the fiscal years ended August 31, 2004 and August 31, 2003.


During the fiscal year ended 8/31/2004 Golden Goliath continued doing exploration work on its properties located in Mexico


The Company reported a loss of ($1,631,004) or ($0.05) per share compared to a loss of ($1,691,704) or ($0.07) per share during the previous year, a slight decrease in loss of $60,700. The decrease in loss was primarily attributable to decreases in various expenses as follows:


1.

Professional fees decreased by $26,481 due to managements’ decision to bring more of the mineral exploration work in-house.

2.

Investor relations decreased by $30,274. This was due to the fact that management decided to cease promotion activities because of their perception of a low level of interest among investors involved in the resource industry.

3.

Rent and utilities decreased by $9,802 because office space on the Corona Property was no longer needed due to a cessation of drilling.

4.

Wages and benefits decreased by $10,968 because temporary employees were no longer needed when drilling stopped on the
Corona Property.




Fiscal 2003 Ended 8/31/2003 vs. Fiscal 2002 Ended 8/31/2002

Golden Goliath had no income from operations during the fiscal years ended 8/31/2003 and 8/31/2002.


During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2003 Golden Goliath continued doing exploration work on its properties located in Mexico.


During the fiscal year-ended August 31, 2003, the Company reported a loss of ($1,691,704) or ($0.07) per share compared to a loss of ($546,950) or ($0.03) per share during the year ended March 31, 2003, an increase in loss by $1,144,754. The increase in loss was attributable to a write-down of mineral properties, which occurred during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2003, in the amount of $1,137,160 and a foreign exchange loss in the amount of $72,155.


During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2003, the Company wrote off $425,591 of the costs associates with the La Reforma Property; $630,547 of the costs associated with the Corona Property; and, $81,022 of the costs associated with the Bufalo La Hermosa La Barranca El Chamizal Property.


The costs associated with the La Reforma Property were written off because the Company plans no immediate future work on the Property and consequently the write-down is required by standards of Canadian Gaap.


The costs associated with the Bufalo La Hermosa La Barranca El Chamizal Property were written off because the Company plans no immediate future work on this property and consequently the write-down is required by standards of Canadian Gaap.


The foreign exchange loss occurred because Minera Delta S.A. de C.V. is an integrated foreign operation and is translated as follows: monetary items and those non-monetary items that are carried at market are translated to Canadian dollars at the rate prevailing on the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items, other than those carried at market, are translated at historical exchange rates. Income statement items are translated on the date of occurrence. Amortization expenses are translated at the same exchange rates as the assets to which they relate. The resulting gains or losses arising on the translation of foreign currency items are credited or charged to earnings.


In an effort to conserve capital during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2003, the Company did reduce discretionary internal expenses. Reductions occurred in the expense categories of office and general, professional fees, investor relations, travel and rent/utilities. The reduction in these expenses totaled $90,745. The Company decided to reduce these expenses to preserve cash in order to allow further exploration activity.


Fiscal 2002 Ended 8/31/2002 vs. Fiscal 2001 Ended 8/31/2001

Golden Goliath had no income from operations during the fiscal years ended 8/31/2002 and 8/31/2001.


For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2002 the Company incurred a net loss of $546,950, compared to a net loss of $438,396 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2001. The increase in net loss can be attributable to an increase in expenses of $32,711 and a reduction in interest income of $84,072 from 2001 to 2002. The Company earned more interest in 2001 as it still had significant cash from its initial public offering financing. The Company spent the proceeds of this financing in 2001 and the first half of 2002.


The Company’s expenses for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2002 were $578,612 compared to $545,901 in the previous fiscal year. The significant expense items include wages and benefits of $176,887, investor relations of $107,384, rent and utilities of $81,776 and management fees of $60,000. These expenses are similar to the previous fiscal year. The most significant variation in expenses between Fiscal 2002 and Fiscal 2001 was an increase of $40,206 for investor relations. This increase reflected the Company’s efforts to attempt to improve investor communication. The Company had a permanent full-time person engaged in shareholder communication and management attended all the major trade shows related to mining and mineral exploration.


With respect to the other expenses professional fees were down $17,413 in Fiscal 2002 as the Company employed less outside professional advisors. Rent and utilities were up $12,459 mainly from the increased office costs associated with additional employees and consultants employed during the fiscal year to assist in managing, analyzing and planning drilling programs, travel was down $12,601 as there were fewer back and forth trips to Mexico and wages and salaries were up $15,341 as more consultants and employees were engaged at various times during the year.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


Nine Months Ended 5/31/2005

The Company has financed its operations almost exclusively through the sale of its common shares to investors and will be required to continue to do so for the foreseeable future.


The Company had working capital of $1,301,606 at May 31, 2005 compared to a working capital position of $1,612,051 at February 28, 2005. The Company’s cash position at May 31, 2005 was $1,253,376.


The Company believes it does not have sufficient working capital to meet its obligations for the next 12 months as the Company intends to be aggressive in its exploration this year. The Company has a large portfolio of exploration properties and has sufficient cash to meet its next phase of exploration, however, additional capital will be required to continue work after this next phase and to meet its working capital requirements. Management plans to meet the Company’s working capital requirements through the sale of common shares. Currently, management is planning a private placement financing, only to Canadian residents, later in the year.


Other than property taxes, which are approximately $70,000 per year, the Company does not have any capital resource commitments.


Fiscal 2004 ended 8/31/2004

The Company has financed its operations almost exclusively through the sale of its common shares to investors and will be required to continue to do so for the foreseeable future.


During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2004, a total of $540,000 was raised by the issue of 1,200,000 shares through a private placement. The Company also issued 7,673,511 shares in the year for the exercise of share purchase warrants related to an earlier private placement raising a total of $1,689,052.


The Company had working capital of $1,988,129 at August 31, 2004 compared to a working capital position of $721,080 at August 31, 2003. The improvement in working capital was largely a result of warrants being exercised during the year. The Company’s cash position at August 31, 2004 was $2,008,799.


Fiscal 2003 ended 8/31/2003

During the year ended August 31, 2003, a total of $1,240,000 was raised by the issue of 7,988,888 shares through private placements and in fiscal 2002, a total of $1,074,510 was raised by the issue of 2,387,800 shares through private placements.


Working capital was $721,080 as at August 31, 2003 compared to $684,693 in 2002. The increase reflects the fact that the Company had completed a financing on August 29, 2003. The Company spent almost $556,656 during the 2003 fiscal year on exploration expenditures and $190,516 on the acquisition of the Los Hilos, Las Bolas and surrounding claims. The Company has sufficient funds on hand in order to continue its exploration programs.



US GAAP Reconciliation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada (“Canadian GAAP”) that differ in certain material respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”).


a) Acquisition of Mineral Properties and Deferred Exploration Costs


Mineral property exploration and acquisition expenditures are accounted for in accordance with Canadian GAAP as disclosed in Note 2. Under US GAAP, mineral property acquisition and exploration expenditures related to unproven mineral properties are required to to be expensed as they are incurred. When proven reserves are determined for a property, subsequent development costs of the property are capitalized. The capitalized costs of such properties would then be measured, on a periodic basis, to ensure that the carrying value can be recovered on an undiscounted cash-flow basis. If the carrying value cannot be recovered on this basis, the mineral properties would be written down to net recoverable value on a discounted cash flow basis.


b) Stock-based Compensation


The Company accounts for all stock options granted to non-employees using the fair-value method of accounting. In respect to stock options granted to employees and directors, the Company uses the intrinsic value-based method of accounting, which recognizes compensation expense only when the market price exceeds the exercise price at the date of grant.


If the Company had accounted for its stock based compensation plan for employees under FAS No. 123 (fair-value method), the pro forma impact would have been as follows:

Critical Accounting Policies

Management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  On a regular basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


Foreign Currency and Hedging


In November 2001, the CICA issued Accounting Guideline 13, “Hedging Relationships” (“AcG 13”) which establishes new criteria for hedge accounting and will apply to all hedging relationships in effect for the Company’s years ending on or after August 1, 2003. Effective August 1, 2003, the Company will reassess all hedging relationships to determine whether the criteria are met or not and will apply the new guidance on a prospective basis. To qualify for hedge accounting, the hedging relationship must be appropriately documented at the inception of the hedge and there must be reasonable assurance, both at the inception and throughout the term of the hedge, that the hedging relationship will be effective. The Company does not currently have any hedging relationships.


Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and Discontinued Operations


In December 2002, the CICA issued Handbook Section 3475 for Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and Discontinued Operations with the purpose of harmonizing Canadian GAAP with U.S. GAAP. The section is effective for disposal activities initiated by a commitment to a plan on or after May 1, 2003, with earlier adoption encouraged. The key aspects of Handbook Section 3475 are as follows:


a long-lived asset to be disposed of other than by sale should continue to be classified as held and used until it is disposed of;

a long-lived asset can only be classified as held for sale if certain criteria are met;

an asset classified as held for sale should be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell;

an asset classified as held for sale should be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell;

a loss recognized on classification of an asset as held for sale does not include future operating losses;

discontinued operations are defined more broadly than previously. They comprise dispositions where the operations and cash flows can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the enterprise;

the income statement display of discontinued operations is unchanged from previous display; and,

various disclosures related to the disposal of long-lived assets is required.


The Company is currently assessing the impact of Handbook Section 3475 on its financial position and results of operations.


Variable Interest Entities


In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“VIE’s”) (“FIN 46”) which requires that companies that control another entity through interests other than voting interest should consolidate the controlled entity. In the absence of clear control through a voting equity interest, a company’s exposure (variable interests) to the economic risk and the potential rewards from a VIE’s assets and activities are the best evidence of a controlling financial interest. VIE’s created after January 31, 2003 must be consolidated immediately. VIE’s existing prior to February 1, 2003 must be consolidated by the Company commencing with its first quarter 2004 financial statements. The Company has determined that it does not have any VIE’s which will require consolidation.


Derivatives and Hedging Activities


In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No, 149 “Amendment of SFAS No. 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. SFAS 149 amends and clarifies accounting for SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. In particular, it clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristics of a derivative as discussed in SFAS No. 133; clarifies when a derivative contains a financing component; amends the definition to conform it to the language used in the FASB Interpretation No. 45; and amends certain other existing pronouncements. This is substantially consistent with the CICA EIC Abstract 128, Accounting for Trading, Speculative or Non-Hedging Derivative Financial Instruments. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. CICA EIC Abstract 128 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after July 1, 2003. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 149 for US GAAP purposes on January 1, 2003 and adopted the provision of EIC 128 on January 1, 2003.  The adoption of these pronouncements is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.


Asset Retirement Obligations


In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." This Statement requires companies to record the fair value of the liability for closure and removal costs associated with the legal obligations upon retirement or removal of any tangible long-lived assets, except for certain obligations of lessees.  Under this standard, the initial recognition of the liability is capitalized as part of the asset cost and depreciated over its estimated useful life.  The Company has determined that it does not have any asset retirement obligations.

Stock Options.  The terms of incentive options grantable by Golden Goliath  are done in accordance with the rules and policies of the TSX Exchange and the British Columbia Securities Commission, including the number of common shares under option, the exercise price and expiry date of such options, and any amendments thereto.  Golden Goliath adopted a formal written stock option plan (the "Plan") on 2/28/2005. (A copy of Golden Goliath ’s Stock Option Plan is included with this document as an exhibit.)


Such “terms and conditions”, including the pricing of the options, expiry and the eligibility of personnel for such stock options; and are described below.


The principal purposes of Golden Goliath’s stock option program are to (a) assist the company in attracting, retaining, and motivating directors, officers and employees of the Company and, (b) to closely align the personal interests of such directors, officers and employees with the interests of the Company and its shareholders.


The Plan provides that stock options may be granted to service providers for Golden Goliath.  The term “service providers” means (a) any full or part-time employee or Officer, or insider of Golden Goliath or any of its subsidiaries; (b) any other person employed by a company or individual providing management services to Golden Goliath; (c) any other person or company engaged to provide ongoing consulting services for Golden Goliath or any entity controlled by Golden Goliath or (d) any individual engaged to provide services that promote the purchase or sale of the issued securities (any person in (a), (b), (c) or (d) hereinafter referred to as an “Eligible Person”); and (e) any registered retirement savings plan established by such Eligible Person, or any corporation controlled by such Eligible Person, the issued and outstanding voting shares of which are, and will continue to be, beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by such Eligible Person and/or spouse, children and/or grandchildren of such Eligible Person.  For stock options to Employees, Consultants or Management Company Employees, Golden Goliath must represent that the optionee is a bona fide Employee, Consultant or Management Company Employee as the case may be.  The terms “insider” “Controlled” and “subsidiary” shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Securities Act (Ontario) from time to time.  Subject to the foregoing, the board of directors or Committee, as applicable, shall have full and final authority to determine the persons who are to be granted options under the Plan and the number of shares subject to each option.


The Plan shall be administered by the board of directors of Golden Goliath or a committee established by the board of directors for that purpose.  Subject to approval of the granting of options by the board of directors or Committee, as applicable, Golden Goliath shall grant options under the Plan.


The Plan provides that the aggregate number of shares of Golden Goliath , which may be issued and sold under the Plan, will not exceed 10% of the issued shares of Golden Goliath .  Golden Goliath shall not, upon the exercise of any option, be required to issue or deliver any shares prior to (a) the admission of such shares to listing on any stock exchange on which Golden Goliath ’s shares may them be listed, and (b) the completion of such registration or other qualification of such shares under any law, rules or regulation as Golden Goliath shall determine to be necessary or advisable.  If any shares cannot be issued to any optionee for whatever reason, the obligation of Golden Goliath to issue such shares shall terminate and any option exercise price paid to Golden Goliath shall be returned to the optionee.


If a stock option expires or otherwise terminates for any reason without having been exercised in full, the number of common shares reserved for issuance under that expired or terminated stock option shall again be available for the purposes of the Plan.  Any stock option outstanding when the Plan is terminated will remain in effect until it is exercised or it expires.  The Plan provides that it is solely within the discretion of the Board to determine who should receive stock options and in what amounts, subject to the following conditions:


(a) options will be non-assignable and non-transferable except that they will

    be exercisable by the personal representative of the option holder in the

    event of the option holder’s death;

(b) options may be exercisable for a maximum of five years from grant date;

(c) options to acquire no more than 5% of the issued shares of Golden Goliath  

    may be granted to any one individual in any 12-month period;

(d) options to acquire no more than 2% of the issued shares of Golden Goliath      

    may be granted to any one consultant in any 12-month period;

(e) options to acquire no more than an aggregate of 2% of the issued shares of

    Golden Goliath may be granted to an employee conducting investor

    relations

    activities (as defined in TSX Venture Exchange Policy 1.1), in any 12

    month period;

(f) options to acquire no more than 10% of the issued shares of Golden Goliath

    may be granted to any insiders in any 12-month period;

(g) options held by an option holder who is a director, employee, consultant

    or management company employee must expire within 90 days after the option

    holder ceases to be a director, employee, consultant or management company

    employee;

(h) options held by an option holder who is engaged in investor relations

    activities must expire within 30 days after the option holder ceases to be

    employed by Golden Goliath  to provide investor relations activities; and

(i) in the event of an option holder’s death, the option holder’s personal

    representative may exercise any portion of the option holder’s vested

    outstanding options for a period of one year following the option holder’s

    death.


The Plan provides that other terms and conditions may be attached to a particular stock option, such terms and conditions to be referred to in a schedule attached to the option certificate.  Stock options granted to directors, senior officers, employees or consultants will vest when granted unless otherwise determined by the Board on a case by case basis, other than stock options granted to consultants performing investor relations activities, which will vest in stages over 12 months with no more than one-fourth of the options vesting in any three month period.


The price at which an option holder may purchase a common share upon the exercise of a stock option will be as set forth in the option certificate issued in respect of such option and in any event will not be less than the discounted market price of Golden Goliath ’s common shares as of the date of the grant of the stock option (the “Award Date”).  The market price of Golden Goliath ’s common shares for a particular Award Date will typically be the closing trading price of Golden Goliath ’s common shares on the day immediately preceding the Award Date, or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Plan.  Where there is no such closing price or trade on the prior trading day “market price” shall mean the average of the most recent bid and ask of the shares of Golden Goliath  on any stock exchange on which the shares are listed or dealing network on which the shares of Golden Goliath  trade.


In no case will a stock option be exercisable at a price less than the minimum prescribed by each of the organized trading facilities or the applicable regulatory authorities that would apply to the award of the stock option in question.


Common shares will not be issued pursuant to stock options granted under the Plan until they have been fully paid for by the option holder.  Golden Goliath  will not provide financial assistance to option holders to assist them in exercising their stock options.


The names and titles of the Directors/Executive Officers of Golden Goliath to whom outstanding stock options have been granted and the number of common shares subject to such options are set forth in Table No. 7 as of 9/15/2005, as well as the number of options granted to Directors and independent contractors.

---No Disclosure Necessary---


10.B.  Memorandum and Articles of Association


The Company was incorporated under the Company Act (British Columbia) on June 12, 1996. Upon replacement of the Company Act (British Columbia) by the British Columbia Business Corporation Act in 2004, management approved the transition of the Company under the new Act. At the Company’s Annual and Special General Meeting held on February 8, 2005, shareholders approved new Corporate Articles.


There are no restrictions on the business the company may carry on in the Articles of Incorporation.


Under Article 17 of the Company’s articles and bylaws a director is not allowed to vote on any transaction or contract with the Company in which he has a disclosable interest unless all directors have a disclosable interest in that transaction.


Part 16 of the Company’s bylaws address the powers and duties of the directors, while Part 8 discusses the Borrowing Powers. The Company may, if authorized by the directors, may:


a)

borrow money in the manner and amount, on the security, from the sources and on the terms and conditions that the directors consider appropriate;


b)

issue bonds, debentures, and other debt obligations either outright or as security for any liability or obligation of the Company or any other person and at such discounts or premiums and on such other terms as they consider appropriate;


c)

guarantee the repayment of money by any other person or the performance of any obligation of any other person;


d)

mortgage, charge, whether by way of specific or floating charge, grant a security interest in, or give other security on, the whole or any part of the present and future assets and undertaking of the Company.


There are no age limit requirements pertaining to the retirement or non-retirement of directors and a director need not be a shareholder of the Company.


The Company may determine that directors may receive remuneration for acting as directors. Any remuneration will be determined by the shareholders. That remuneration may be in addition to any salary or other remuneration paid to any officer or employee of the Company as such. The Company may also reimburse each director for the reasonable expenses that he or she may incur in or about the business of the Company. If any director performs any professional or other services for the Company that in the opinion of the directors is outside the ordinary duties of a director, or if any director is otherwise specially occupied in or about the Company’s business, he or she may be paid remuneration fixed by the directors and such remuneration may be either in addition to or substitution for any other remuneration they may be entitled to receive.


Article 21 deals with Indemnification of individuals. The directors must cause the Company to indemnify its officers and directors, and former officers and directors, and alternate directors, and their respective heirs and personal or other legal representatives to the greatest extent permitted by the Business Corporations Act. Each director and officer is deemed to have contracted with the Company on the terms of the indemnity contained in this section. Subject to any restrictions in the Act, the Company may indemnify any other person. The failure of a director or officer of the Company to comply with the Business Corporations Act or these Articles does not invalidate any indemnity to which he or she is entitled under this Part. The Company may also purchase insurance for any persons classified as above.


The rights, preferences and restrictions attaching to each class of the Company’s shares are as follows:


Common Shares


The authorized shares of common stock of the Company are of the same class and, once issued, rank equally as to dividends, voting powers, and participation in assets.  Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be acted upon by the shareholders.  Holders of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors, in its discretion, out of funds legally available therefore.


Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of common stock are entitled to receive pro rata the assets of Company, if any, remaining after payments of all debts and liabilities.  No shares have been issued subject to call or assessment.  There are no pre-emptive or conversion rights and no provisions for redemption or purchase for cancellation, surrender, or sinking or purchase funds.


The Company may by special resolution, create, define, and attach special rights or restrictions on any shares and by special resolution and by otherwise complying with any applicable provision of its Memorandum or these Articles to vary or delete any special rights and restrictions attached to any shares.


An annual general meeting shall be held once every calendar year at such time (not being more than 15 months after holding the last preceding annual meeting) and place as may be determined by the Directors. The Directors may, as they see fit, convene an extraordinary general meeting. An extraordinary general meeting, if requisitioned in accordance with the Company Act, shall be convened by the Directors or, if not convened by the Directors, may be convened by the requisitionists as provided in the Corporations Act.


There are no limitations upon the rights to own securities.

The following is a brief summary of some of the principal Canadian federal income tax consequences to a holder of common shares of Golden Goliath  (a "U.S. Holder") who deals at arm's length with Golden Goliath , holds the shares as capital property and who, for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Act") and the Canada – United States Income Tax Convention (the "Treaty"), is at all relevant times resident in the United States, is not and is not deemed to be resident in Canada and does not use or hold and is not deemed to use or hold the shares in carrying on a business in Canada.  Special rules, which are not discussed below, may apply to a U.S. Holder that is an insurer that carries on business in Canada and elsewhere.


Under the Act and the Treaty, a U.S. Holder of common shares will generally be subject to a 15% withholding tax on dividends paid or credited or deemed by the Act to have been paid or credited on such shares.  The withholding tax rate is 5% where the U.S. Holder is a corporation that beneficially owns at least 10% of the voting shares of Golden Goliath  and the dividends may be exempt from such withholding in the case of some U.S. Holders such as qualifying pension funds and charities.


In general, a U.S. Holder will not be subject to Canadian income tax on capital gains arising on the disposition of shares of Golden Goliath  unless (i) at any time in the five-year period immediately preceding the disposition, 25% or more of the shares of any class or series of the capital stock of Golden Goliath  was owned by (or was under option of or subject to an interest of) the U.S. holder or persons with whom the U.S. holder did not deal at arm's length, and (ii) the value of the common shares of Golden Goliath  at the time of the disposition derives principally from real property (as defined in the Treaty) situated in Canada. For this purpose, the Treaty defines real property situated in Canada to include rights to explore for or exploit mineral deposits and other natural resources situated in Canada, rights to amounts computed by reference to the amount or value of production from such resources, certain other rights in respect of natural resources situated in Canada and shares of a corporation the value of whose shares is derived principally from real property situated in Canada.


The US Internal Revenue Code provides special anti-deferral rules regarding certain distributions received by US persons with respect to, and sales and other dispositions (including pledges) of stock of, a passive foreign investment company. A foreign corporation, such as Golden Goliath , will be treated as a passive foreign investment company if 75% or more of its gross income is passive income for a taxable year or if the average percentage of its assets (by value) that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income is at least 50% for a taxable year. Golden Goliath  believes that it was not a passive foreign investment company for the taxable year ended 12/31/2003 and, furthermore, expects to conduct its affairs in such a manner so that it will not meet the criteria to be considered passive foreign investment company in the foreseeable future.


Dividends

A Holder will be subject to Canadian withholding tax ("Part XIII Tax") equal to 25%, or such lower rate as may be available under an applicable tax treaty, of the gross amount of any dividend paid or deemed to be paid on common shares.  Under the Canada-U.S. Income Tax Convention (1980) as amended by the Protocols signed on 6/14/1983, 3/28/1984, 3/17/1995, and 7/29/1997 (the "Treaty"), the rate of Part XIII Tax applicable to a dividend on common shares paid to a Holder who is a resident of the United States and who is the beneficial owner of the dividend, is 5%.  If the Holder is a company that owns at least 10% of the voting stock of the Company paying the dividend, and, in all other cases, the tax rate is 15% of the gross amount of the dividend.  Golden Goliath  will be required to withhold the applicable amount of Part XIII Tax from each dividend so paid and remit the withheld amount directly to the Receiver General for Canada for the account of the Holder.


Disposition of Common Shares

A Holder who disposes of a common share, including by deemed disposition on death, will not normally be subject to Canadian tax on any capital gain (or capital loss) thereby realized unless the common share constituted "taxable Canadian property" as defined by the Tax Act.  Generally, a common share of a public corporation will not constitute taxable Canadian property of a Holder if the share is listed on a prescribed stock exchange unless the Holder or persons with whom the Holder did not deal at arm's length alone or together held or held options to acquire, at any time within the five years preceding the disposition, 25% or more of the shares of any class of the capital stock of Golden Goliath .  The Canadian Venture Exchange is a prescribed stock exchange under the Tax Act.  A Holder who is a resident of the United States and realizes a capital gain on a disposition of a common share that was taxable Canadian property will nevertheless, by virtue of the Treaty, generally be exempt from Canadian tax thereon unless (a) more than 50% of the value of the common shares is derived from, or from an interest in, Canadian real estate, including Canadian mineral resource properties, (b) the common share formed part of the business property of a permanent establishment that the Holder has or had in Canada within the 12 month period preceding the disposition, or (c) the Holder is an individual who (i) was a resident of Canada at any time during the 10 years immediately preceding the disposition, and for a total of 120 months during any period of 20 consecutive years, preceding the disposition, and (ii) owned the common share when he ceased to be resident in Canada.


A Holder who is subject to Canadian tax in respect of a capital gain realized on a disposition of a common share must include three quarters of the capital gain (taxable capital gain) in computing the Holder's taxable income earned in Canada.  The Holder may, subject to certain limitations, deduct three-quarters of any capital loss (allowable capital loss) arising on a disposition of taxable Canadian property from taxable capital gains realized in the year of disposition in respect to taxable Canadian property and, to the extent not so deductible, from such taxable capital gains realized in any of the three preceding years or any subsequent year.



United States Taxation

For federal income tax purposes, an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States or a domestic corporation ("U.S. Taxpayer") will recognize a gain or loss on the sale of Golden Goliath 's common shares equal to the difference between the proceeds from such sale and the adjusted tax basis of the common shares.  The gain or loss will be a capital gain or capital loss if Golden Goliath 's common shares are a capital asset in U.S. Taxpayer's hands.


For federal income tax purposes, a U.S. Taxpayer will be required to include in gross income dividends received on Golden Goliath 's common shares.  A U.S. Taxpayer who pays Canadian tax on a dividend on common shares will be entitled, subject to certain limitations, to a credit (or alternatively, a deduction) against federal income tax liability.  A domestic corporation that owns at least 10% of the voting shares should consult its tax advisor as to applicability of the deemed paid foreign tax credit with respect to dividends paid on Golden Goliath 's common shares.


Under a number of circumstances, United States Investor acquiring shares of Golden Goliath  may be required to file an information return with the Internal Revenue Service Center where they are required to file their tax returns with a duplicate copy to the Internal Revenue Service Center, Philadelphia, PA 19255.  In particular, any United States Investor who becomes the owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the shares of Golden Goliath  will be required to file such a return.  Other filing requirements may apply, and United States Investors should consult their own tax advisors concerning these requirements.


The US Internal Revenue Code provides special anti-deferral rules regarding certain distributions received by US persons with respect to, and sales and other dispositions (including pledges) of stock of, a passive foreign investment company.  A foreign corporation, such as Golden Goliath , will be treated as a passive foreign investment company if 75% or more of its gross income is passive income for a taxable year or if the average percentage of its assets (by value) that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income is at least 50% for a taxable year.  Golden Goliath  believes that it was not a passive foreign investment company for the taxable year ended 12/31/2004 and, furthermore, expects to conduct its affairs in such a manner so that it will not meet the criteria to be considered passive foreign investment company in the foreseeable future.  


10.F.  Dividends and Paying Agents

Golden Goliath  has not declared any dividends on its common shares for the last five years and does not anticipate that it will do so in the foreseeable future.  The present policy of Golden Goliath  is to retain future earnings for use in its operations and the expansion of its business.


Notwithstanding the aforementioned: Golden Goliath  is unaware of any dividend restrictions; has no specific procedure for the setting of the date of dividend entitlement; but might expect to set a record date for stock ownership to determine entitlement; has no specific procedures for non-resident holders to claim dividends, but might expect to mail their dividends in the same manner as resident holders.  Golden Goliath  has not nominated any financial institutions to be the potential paying agents for dividends in the United States.


10.G.  Statement by Experts  

Golden Goliath ’s auditor for its financial statements for each of the preceding three years was G. Ross McDonald, Independent Chartered Accountant.  Their audit report for Fiscal 2004/2003/2002 is included with the related financial statements in this Registration Statement with their consent.

ITEM 15.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Golden Goliath  carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of Golden Goliath ’s management, including Golden Goliath ’s President, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Golden Goliath ’s “disclosure controls and procedures” [as defined in the Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)] as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based upon that evaluation, the President concluded that Golden Goliath ’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to Golden Goliath  required to be included in Golden Goliath ’s periodic SEC filings, and that information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required.


There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures.  Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.


There was no significant change in Golden Goliath ’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during Golden Goliath ’s most recently completed fiscal year ended 8/31/2004 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Golden Goliath ’s internal control over financial reporting.  Nor were there any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in Golden Goliath's internal controls requiring corrective actions.

AUDITORS’ REPORT


To the Shareholders of Golden Goliath Resources Ltd.


We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Golden Goliath Resources Ltd. as at August 31, 2004 and 2003, and the consolidated statements of operations and deficit, and cash flows for the years ended August 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.


In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at August 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years ended August 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

Comments by Auditors for U.S. Readers

on Canada – U.S. Reporting Conflict


In the United States, reporting standards for auditors require the addition of an explanatory paragraph (following the opinion paragraph) when the financial statements are affected by conditions and events that cast substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, such as those described in Note 1 to the financial statements.  Our report to the shareholders, dated December 7, 2004, is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting standards which do not permit a reference to such events and conditions in the auditors’ report when these are adequately disclosed in the financial statements.

GOLDEN GOLIATH RESOURCES LTD.


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


AUGUST 31, 2004


1.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS


The Company was incorporated under the Company Act of British Columbia on June 12, 1996.


The Company’s principal business activity is the exploration of mineral properties in Mexico.  The Company has not yet determined whether these properties contain reserves that are economically recoverable.  


The recoverability of amounts shown for mineral properties is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, confirmation of the Company’s interest in the underlying mineral concessions, the ability of the Company to obtain financing to complete the development, and to attain future profitable production from the properties or proceeds from disposition.


2.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


a)

Basis of Consolidation


These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its 100% owned subsidiaries, Minera Delta S.A. de C.V. of Mexico, and 4247 Investments Ltd. of British Columbia.


b)

Use of Estimates


Financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions, which can affect the reported balances. In determining estimates of the valuation of its assets, the Company relies on assumptions regarding applicable industry performance and prospects, as well as general business and economic conditions that prevail and are expected to prevail. Assumptions underlying the asset valuations are limited by the availability of reliable comparable data and the uncertainty of predictions concerning future events.


c)

Mineral Property Acquisition and Exploration Costs


The Company records its interest in mineral properties at cost, less option income realized. The cost of mineral properties and related exploration costs are deferred until the properties are brought into production, sold or abandoned. These deferred costs will be amortized on the unit-of-production basis over the estimated useful life of the properties following the commencement of production or are written-off if the properties are sold, allowed to lapse or abandoned.  Amounts shown for the mineral properties and their related deferred exploration costs represent costs incurred and are not intended to reflect present or future values.


Management reviews capitalized costs on its mineral properties on a periodic basis and will recognize impairment in value based upon current exploration results and upon management’s assessment of the future probability of profitable revenues from the property or from sale of the property.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


d)

Capital Assets


Capital assets are recorded at cost and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.  The following rates are applied:


Computer equipment

25%

Furniture and fixtures

10%

Vehicles

25%


The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of its property, plant and equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  An impairment loss would be recognized when estimates of future cash flows expected to result from the use of an asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount.


e)

Loss Per Share


Loss per share has been calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. The Company calculates diluted earnings per share using the treasury stock method.  Basic and diluted losses per share are the same, as the effect of potential issuances of shares under warrants or share option arrangements would be anti-dilutive.


f)

Stock Based Compensation


The Company accounts for all stock options granted to non-employees using the fair value-based method of accounting. In respect of stock options granted to employees and directors, the Company has elected to adopt the intrinsic value-based method of accounting, which recognizes compensation expense only when the market price exceeds the exercise price at the date of grant, but which requires pro forma disclosure of net loss as if these grants were accounted for using the fair value method. Consideration paid on the exercise of stock options is credited to share capital.


g)

Income Taxes


Income taxes are calculated using the liability method of accounting.  Temporary differences arising from the difference between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its carrying amount on the balance sheet are used to calculate future income tax liabilities or assets.  Future tax assets are recognized to the extent that they are considered more likely than not to be realized.  Future income tax liabilities or assets are calculated using the tax rates anticipated to apply in the periods that the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

h)

Foreign Currency Translation


Minera Delta S.A. de C.V. is an integrated foreign operation and has been translated as follows; monetary items and those non-monetary items that are carried at market are translated to Canadian dollars at the rate prevailing on the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items, other than those carried at market, are translated at historical exchange rates. Income statement items have been translated on the date of occurrence.  Amortization expense is translated at the same exchange rates as the assets to which they relate. The resulting gains or losses arising on the translation of foreign currency items are credited or charged to earnings.


i)

Cash and Cash Equivalents


Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and those short term money market instruments that are readily convertible to cash with an original term of less than ninety days.


j)

Financial Instruments


The carrying value of cash and short term investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short term nature, unless otherwise noted.

Stock based compensation equal to the fair value of 50,000 stock options granted to consultants during the year ended August 31, 2004 was $15,543, which had been capitalized to mineral property exploration costs.


Stock based compensation equal to the fair value of 50,000 stock options granted to the consultants during the year ended August 31, 2003 was $7,435, which had been recorded in the statement of loss as investor relations expense.


In addition, the Company repriced 1,720,000 stock options previously granted to certain directors, employees and consultants from an exercise price of $0.50 to an exercise price of $0.25.  At August 31, 2003, an amount of $7,435 was, therefore, charged to investor relations expense as a result of the repricing of stock options.


The fair value for options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:  risk-free interest rate of 4.28% (2003 – 4.25%), dividend yield of nil, volatility factor of 99.89% (2003 – 96.58%), and a weighted average expected life of the options of 3 years.  The weighted average fair value per share of options granted during 2004 was $0.23 (2003 - $0.16).


The Company also granted 655,000 stock options to employees and directors during the year ended August 31, 2004.  The Company has elected to measure compensation costs using the intrinsic value based method for employee stock options.  Under this method, no compensation expense was recognized when the stock options were granted.  Had compensation costs been determined based on the fair value of the options, additional compensation expense would have been recorded as follows:

a)

Acquisition of Mineral Properties and Deferred Exploration Costs


Mineral property exploration and acquisition expenditures are accounted for in accordance with Canadian GAAP as disclosed in Note 2. Under US GAAP, mineral property acquisition and exploration expenditures related to unproven mineral properties are required to to be expensed as they are incurred. When proven reserves are determined for a property, subsequent development costs of the property are capitalized. The capitalized costs of such properties would then be measured, on a periodic basis, to ensure that the carrying value can be recovered on an undiscounted cash-flow basis. If the carrying value cannot be recovered on this basis, the mineral properties would be written down to net recoverable value on a discounted cash flow basis.

b)

Stock-based Compensation


The Company accounts for all stock options granted to non-employees using the fair-value method of accounting. In respect to stock options granted to employees and directors, the Company uses the intrinsic value-based method of accounting, which recognizes compensation expense only when the market price exceeds the exercise price at the date of grant.


If the Company had accounted for its stock based compensation plan for employees under FAS No. 123 (fair-value method), the pro forma impact would have been as follows:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements


Foreign Currency and Hedging


In November 2001, the CICA issued Accounting Guideline 13, “Hedging Relationships” (“AcG 13”) which establishes new criteria for hedge accounting and will apply to all hedging relationships in effect for the Company’s years ending on or after August 1, 2003. Effective August 1, 2003, the Company will reassess all hedging relationships to determine whether the criteria are met or not and will apply the new guidance on a prospective basis. To qualify for hedge accounting, the hedging relationship must be appropriately documented at the inception of the hedge and there must be reasonable assurance, both at the inception and throughout the term of the hedge, that the hedging relationship will be effective. The Company does not currently have any hedging relationships.

Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and Discontinued Operations


In December 2002, the CICA issued Handbook Section 3475 for Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and Discontinued Operations with the purpose of harmonizing Canadian GAAP with U.S. GAAP. The section is effective for disposal activities initiated by a commitment to a plan on or after May 1, 2003, with earlier adoption encouraged. The key aspects of Handbook Section 3475 are as follows:


a long-lived asset to be disposed of other than by sale should continue to be classified as held and used until it is disposed of;

      a long-lived asset can only be classified as held for sale if certain criteria are met;

      an asset classified as held for sale should be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell;

      an asset classified as held for sale should be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell;

      a loss recognized on classification of an asset as held for sale does not include future operating losses;

      discontinued operations are defined more broadly than previously. They comprise dispositions where the operations and cash flows can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the enterprise;

       the income statement display of discontinued operations is unchanged from previous display; and,

 various disclosures related to the disposal of long-lived assets is required.


The Company is currently assessing the impact of Handbook Section 3475 on its financial position and results of operations.


Variable Interest Entities


In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“VIE’s”) (“FIN 46”) which requires that companies that control another entity through interests other than voting interest should consolidate the controlled entity. In the absence of clear control through a voting equity interest, a company’s exposure (variable interests) to the economic risk and the potential rewards from a VIE’s assets and activities are the best evidence of a controlling financial interest. VIE’s created after January 31, 2003 must be consolidated immediately. VIE’s existing prior to February 1, 2003 must be consolidated by the Company commencing with its first quarter 2004 financial statements. The Company has determined that it does not have any VIE’s which will require consolidation.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities


In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No, 149 “Amendment of SFAS No. 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. SFAS 149 amends and clarifies accounting for SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. In particular, it clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristics of a derivative as discussed in SFAS No. 133; clarifies when a derivative contains a financing component; amends the definition to conform it to the language used in the FASB Interpretation No. 45; and amends certain other existing pronouncements. This is substantially consistent with the CICA EIC Abstract 128, Accounting for Trading, Speculative or Non-Hedging Derivative Financial Instruments. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. CICA EIC Abstract 128 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after July 1, 2003. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 149 for US GAAP purposes on January 1, 2003 and adopted the provision of EIC 128 on January 1, 2003.  The adoption of these pronouncements is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.


Asset Retirement Obligations


In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." This Statement requires companies to record the fair value of the liability for closure and removal costs associated with the legal obligations upon retirement or removal of any tangible long-lived assets, except for certain obligations of lessees.  Under this standard, the initial recognition of the liability is capitalized as part of the asset cost and depreciated over its estimated useful life.  The Company has determined that it does not have any asset retirement obligations.

1.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS


The Company was incorporated under the Company Act of British Columbia on June 12, 1996.


The Company’s principal business activity is the exploration of mineral properties in Mexico.  The Company has not yet determined whether these properties contain reserves that are economically recoverable.  


The recoverability of amounts shown for mineral properties is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, confirmation of the Company’s interest in the underlying mineral concessions, the ability of the Company to obtain financing to complete the development, and to attain future profitable production from the properties or proceeds from disposition.



2.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).


a)

Use of Estimates


Financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions, which can affect the reported balances. In determining estimates of the valuation of its assets, the Company relies on assumptions regarding applicable industry performance and prospects, as well as general business and economic conditions that prevail and are expected to prevail. Assumptions underlying the asset valuations are limited by the availability of reliable comparable data and the uncertainty of predictions concerning future events.


b)

Capital Assets


Capital assets are recorded at cost and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.  The following rates are applied:


Computer equipment

25%

Furniture and fixtures

10%

Vehicles

25%



c)

Basis of Consolidation


These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its 100% owned subsidiaries, Minera Delta S.A. de C.V. of Mexico, and 4247 Investments Ltd. of British Columbia.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


d)

Loss Per Share


Loss per share has been calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. The Company has adopted the new recommendations of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants, whereby diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury stock method.  Basic and diluted losses per share are the same, as the effect of potential issuances of shares under warrants or share option arrangements would be anti-dilutive.


a)

Stock Based Compensation


The Company’s stock-based compensation plan is described in note 7(b). The Company has adopted the fair value based method (note 3) to account for stock-based transactions with employees, non-employees and directors. Accordingly the fair value of the stock options at the date of grant is charged to operations, with an offsetting credit to contributed surplus. Any consideration received on exercise of stock options together with the related portion of contributed surplus is credited to share capital.


f)

Income Taxes


Income taxes are calculated using the liability method of accounting.  Temporary differences arising from the difference between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its carrying amount on the balance sheet are used to calculate future income tax liabilities or assets.  Future tax assets are recognized to the extent that they are considered more likely than not to be realized.  Future income tax liabilities or assets are calculated using the tax rates anticipated to apply in the periods that the temporary differences are expected to reverse.


a)

Mineral Property Acquisition and Exploration Costs


The Company records its interest in mineral properties at cost, less option income realized. The cost of mineral properties and related exploration costs are deferred until the properties are brought into production, sold or abandoned. These deferred costs will be amortized on the unit-of-production basis over the estimated useful life of the properties following the commencement of production or are written-off if the properties are sold, allowed to lapse or abandoned.  Amounts shown for the mineral properties and their related deferred exploration costs represent costs incurred and are not intended to reflect present or future values.


Management reviews capitalized costs on its mineral properties on a periodic basis and will recognize impairment in value based upon current exploration results and upon management’s assessment of the future probability of profitable revenues from the property or from sale of the property.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


h)

Foreign Currency Translation


Minera Delta S.A. de C.V. is an integrated foreign operation and has been translated as follows; monetary items and those non-monetary items that are carried at market are translated to Canadian dollars at the rate prevailing on the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items, other than those carried at market, are translated at historical exchange rates. Income statement items have been translated on the date of occurrence.  Amortization expense is translated at the same exchange rates as the assets to which they relate. The resulting gains or losses arising on the translation of foreign currency items are credited or charged to earnings.


i)

Financial Instruments


The carrying value of cash and short-term investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature, unless otherwise noted.


1.

CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Effective September 1, 2004, the Company changed its accounting policy on a prospective basis with respect to the method of accounting for stock-based compensation. The Company adopted CICA 3870, Stock-based Compensation and Other Stock-based Payments, and has chosen to account for all grants of options to employees, non-employees and directors after September 1, 2004 in accordance with the fair value method for accounting for stock-based compensation as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in Canada. Stock-based compensation awards expense is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (“Black-Scholes”). Previously, the Company used the intrinsic value based method for valuing stock-based compensation awards granted to employees and directors where compensation expense was recognized for the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company’s common shares over the common share exercise price on the day that options were granted.

a) Acquisition of Mineral Properties and Deferred Exploration Costs


Mineral property exploration and acquisition expenditures are accounted for in accordance with Canadian GAAP as disclosed in Note 2. Under US GAAP, mineral property acquisition and exploration expenditures related to unproven mineral properties are required to be expensed as they are incurred. When proven reserves are determined for a property, subsequent development costs of the property are capitalized. The capitalized costs of such properties would then be measured, on a periodic basis, to ensure that the carrying value can be recovered on an undiscounted cash-flow basis. If the carrying value cannot be recovered on this basis, the mineral properties would be written down to net recoverable value on a discounted cash flow basis.

b) Stock-based Compensation


The Company accounts for all stock options granted to non-employees using the fair-value method of accounting. In respect to stock options granted to employees and directors, the Company uses the intrinsic value-based method of accounting, which recognizes compensation expense only when the market price exceeds the exercise price at the date of grant.


If the Company had accounted for its stock based compensation plan for employees under FAS No. 123 (fair-value method), the pro forma impact would have been as follows:

c) Recent Accounting Pronouncements


Foreign Currency and Hedging


In November 2001, the CICA issued Accounting Guideline 13, “Hedging Relationships” (“AcG 13”) which establishes new criteria for hedge accounting and will apply to all hedging relationships in effect for the Company’s years ending on or after August 1, 2003. Effective August 1, 2003, the Company will reassess all hedging relationships to determine whether the criteria are met or not and will apply the new guidance on a prospective basis. To qualify for hedge accounting, the hedging relationship must be appropriately documented at the inception of the hedge and there must be reasonable assurance, both at the inception and throughout the term of the hedge, that the hedging relationship will be effective. The Company does not currently have any hedging relationships.


Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and Discontinued Operations


In December 2002, the CICA issued Handbook Section 3475 for Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and Discontinued Operations with the purpose of harmonizing Canadian GAAP with U.S. GAAP. The section is effective for disposal activities initiated by a commitment to a plan on or after May 1, 2003, with earlier adoption encouraged. The key aspects of Handbook Section 3475 are as follows:


  a long-lived asset to be disposed of other than by sale should continue to be classified as held and used until it is disposed of;

      a long-lived asset can only be classified as held for sale if certain criteria are met;

      an asset classified as held for sale should be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell;

      an asset classified as held for sale should be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell;

      a loss recognized on classification of an asset as held for sale does not include future operating losses;

      discontinued operations are defined more broadly than previously. They comprise dispositions where the operations and cash flows can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the enterprise;

       the income statement display of discontinued operations is unchanged from previous display; and,

 various disclosures related to the disposal of long-lived assets is required.


The Company is currently assessing the impact of Handbook Section 3475 on its financial position and results of operations.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (GAAP) (Continued)


Variable Interest Entities


In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“VIE’s”) (“FIN 46”) which requires that companies that control another entity through interests other than voting interest should consolidate the controlled entity. In the absence of clear control through a voting equity interest, a company’s exposure (variable interests) to the economic risk and the potential rewards from a VIE’s assets and activities are the best evidence of a controlling financial interest. VIE’s created after January 31, 2003 must be consolidated immediately. VIE’s existing prior to February 1, 2003 must be consolidated by the Company commencing with its first quarter 2004 financial statements. The Company has determined that it does not have any VIE’s which will require consolidation.


Derivatives and Hedging Activities


In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No, 149 “Amendment of SFAS No. 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. SFAS 149 amends and clarifies accounting for SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. In particular, it clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristics of a derivative as discussed in SFAS No. 133; clarifies when a derivative contains a financing component; amends the definition to conform it to the language used in the FASB Interpretation No. 45; and amends certain other existing pronouncements. This is substantially consistent with the CICA EIC Abstract 128, Accounting for Trading, Speculative or Non-Hedging Derivative Financial Instruments. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. CICA EIC Abstract 128 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after July 1, 2003. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 149 for US GAAP purposes on January 1, 2003 and adopted the provision of EIC 128 on January 1, 2003.  The adoption of these pronouncements is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.


Asset Retirement Obligations


In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." This Statement requires companies to record the fair value of the liability for closure and removal costs associated with the legal obligations upon retirement or removal of any tangible long-lived assets, except for certain obligations of lessees.  Under this standard, the initial recognition of the liability is capitalized as part of the asset cost and depreciated over its estimated useful life.  The Company has determined that it does not have any asset retirement obligations.
