Reconciliation to United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

A reconciliation to United States generally accepted accounting principles is included in Note 13 to the audited financial statements. The primary significant difference between Canadian and United States generally accepted accounting principles as they relate to our company is the accounting for stock-based compensation expenses.

Disclosure of Exchange Rate History

Since June 1, 1970, the government of Canada has permitted a floating exchange rate to determine the value of the Canadian dollar as compared to the United States dollar. On June 18, 2010, the exchange rates in effect for Canadian dollars exchanged for United States dollars, expressed in terms of Canadian dollars (based on the closing buying rates in New York City, for cable transfers in Canadian dollars, as certified for customs purposes by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board) was 1.0237. For the past five fiscal years ended December 31, 2009, and for the monthly periods between December 1, 2009 and May 31, 2010, the following exchange rates were in effect for Canadian dollars exchanged for United States dollars, expressed in terms of Canadian dollars (based on the noon buying rates in New York City, for cable transfers in Canadian dollars, as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York):

D.         Risk Factors

Much of the information included in this annual report includes or is based upon estimates, projections or other forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include any projections or estimates made by our company and our management in connection with our business operations. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein.

Such estimates, projections or other forward-looking statements involve various risks and uncertainties as outlined below. We caution the reader that important factors in some cases have affected and, in the future, could materially affect actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in any such estimates, projections or other forward looking statements.

The common shares of our company are considered speculative. Prospective investors should consider carefully the risk factors set out below.

Our company has had negative cash flows from operations and if we are not able to obtain further financing, our business operations may fail.

We had cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $90,212 and a working capital deficit of $190,827 as of December 31, 2009. We do not have sufficient funds to independently finance the acquisition of suitable business opportunities, nor do we have the funds to independently finance our daily operating costs. Our company does not expect to generate any revenues for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, we will require additional funds, either from equity or debt financing, to maintain our daily operations and to locate and acquire suitable business opportunities. Obtaining additional financing is subject to a number of factors, including market acceptance of projects, investor acceptance of any business opportunity we may acquire in the future and investor sentiment. Financing, therefore, may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. The most likely source of future funds presently available to our company is through the sale of equity capital. Any sale of share capital, however, will result in dilution to existing shareholders. If we are unable to raise additional funds when required, we may be forced to delay our plan of operation and our entire business may fail.

- 6 -

Our company currently does not generate revenues, and as a result, it faces a high risk of business failure.

We do not hold an interest in any business or revenue generating property or business. From the date of our incorporation, we have primarily focused on the location and acquisition of mineral and oil and gas properties. We have not generated any revenues to date. In order to generate revenues, we will incur substantial expenses in the location, acquisition and development of a prospective property or the acquisition of a suitable business. We therefore expect to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future. Our company recognizes that if we are unable to generate significant revenues from our activities, our entire business may fail. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will be successful in our plan of operation, and we can provide no assurance to investors that we will generate any operating revenues or achieve profitable operations.

The worldwide macroeconomic downturn may reduce the ability of our company to obtain the financing necessary to continue our business and may reduce the number of viable businesses that we may wish to acquire.

Since 2008, there has been a downturn in general worldwide economic conditions due to many factors, including the effects of the subprime lending and general credit market crises, volatile but generally declining energy costs, slower economic activity, decreased consumer confidence and commodity prices, reduced corporate profits and capital spending, adverse business conditions, increased unemployment and liquidity concerns. In addition, these macroeconomic effects, including the resulting recession in various countries and slowing of the global economy, will likely result in decreased business opportunities as potential target companies face increased financial hardship. Tightening credit and liquidity issues will also result in increased difficulties for our company to raise capital for our continued operations and to consummate a business opportunity with a viable business.

Due to the speculative nature of the exploration of mineral and oil and gas properties, there is substantial risk that our company’s business will fail.

The business of mineral and oil and gas exploration and development is highly speculative involving substantial risk. There is generally no way to recover any funds expended on a particular property unless reserves are established and unless we can exploit such reserves in an economic manner. Our company can provide investors with no assurance that any property interest that we may acquire will provide commercially exploitable reserves. Any expenditures by our company in connection with locating, acquiring and developing an interest in a mineral or oil and gas property may not provide or contain commercial quantities of reserves.

Even if our company discovers commercial reserves, we may not be able to successfully obtain commercial production.

Even if we are successful in acquiring an interest in a property that has proven commercial reserves of minerals or oil and gas, we will require significant additional funds in order to place the property into commercial production. We can provide no assurance to investors that we will be able to obtain the financing necessary to extract such reserves.

If our company is unable to hire and retain key personnel, we may not be able to implement our plan of operation and our business may fail.

Our company’s success will be largely dependent on our ability to hire and retain highly qualified personnel. This is particularly true in the highly technical businesses of mineral and oil and gas exploration. These individuals may be in high demand and we may not be able to attract the staff we need. In addition, we may not be able to afford the high salaries and fees demanded by qualified personnel, or we may fail to retain such employees after they are hired.

At present, we have not hired any key personnel, apart from our key management employees as further discussed below. Our company’s failure to hire key personnel when needed will have a significant negative effect on our business.

- 7 -

Because our company’s executive officers do not have formal training specific to mineral and oil and gas exploration, there is a higher risk our business will fail.

While our company’s directors and executive officers have experience managing mineral exploration companies, they do not have formal training as geologists. Accordingly, management may not fully appreciate many of the specific requirements related to working within the mining and oil and gas industry. Our company’s management decisions may not take into account standard engineering or managerial approaches commonly used by such companies. Consequently, our operations, earnings, and ultimate financial success could be negatively affected due to our company’s management’s lack of experience in the industry.

We are dependant on the services of certain key employees, namely John Toljanich, chief executive officer, president and secretary and Brent Petterson, chief financial officer and the loss of these key employees may have a materially adverse effect on our company.

While engaged in the business of exploiting mineral properties, our company’s ability to continue our exploration of potential projects and to develop a competitive edge in the marketplace depends, in large part, on our ability to attract and maintain qualified key management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we may not be able to attract and retain such personnel. Our company’s growth has depended, and in the future will continue to depend, on the efforts of our key management employees. Loss of any of these people would have a material adverse effect on our company. Currently our company does not have any contracts with our key employees and we do not have key-man life insurance.

Conflicts of interest may arise as a result of our company’s directors and officers being directors and officers of other natural resource companies.

Certain of our company’s directors and officers are also directors and/or officers and/or shareholders of other natural resource companies. While we are engaged in the business of exploiting mineral properties, such associations may give rise to conflicts of interest from time to time. Our company’s directors are required by law to act honestly and in good faith with a view to our company’s best interests and to disclose any interest that they may have in any project or opportunity of our company. If a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of our company’s board of directors, any director in a conflict must disclose his interest and abstain from voting on such matter. In determining whether or not our company will participate in any project or opportunity, our company’s directors will primarily consider the degree of risk to which our company may be exposed and our financial position at the time.

Our company’s By-laws contain provisions indemnifying our officers and directors against all costs, charges and expenses incurred by them.

Our company’s By-laws contain provisions limiting the liability of our officers and directors for all acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of themselves and all of our other officers or directors or for any other loss, damage or expense incurred by our company which may happen in the execution of the duties of such officers or directors. Such limitations on liability may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our company’s officers and directors and may discourage or deter our shareholders from suing our company’s officers and directors based upon breaches of their duties to our company, though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and our shareholders.

Investors’ interests in our company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share if we issue options to any of our employees, directors or consultants.

Because our company’s success is highly dependent upon our respective employees, we may in the future grant options to some or all of our key employees, directors and consultants to purchase shares of our common stock as non-cash incentives. Those options may be granted at exercise prices below those for the common stock prevailing in the public trading market at the time or may be granted at exercise prices equal to market prices at times when the public market is depressed. To the extent that significant numbers of such options may be granted and exercised, the interests of our company’s other stockholders may be diluted.

- 8 -

Investors’ interests in our company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share if our company issues additional shares or raises funds through the sale of equity securities.

In the event that our company is required to issue additional shares or decides to enter into joint ventures with other parties in order to raise financing through the sale of equity securities, investors’ interests in our company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share depending on the price at which such securities are sold. The dilution may result in a decline in the market price of our company’s shares.

United States investors may not be able to enforce their civil liabilities against our company or our directors, controlling persons and officers.

It may be difficult to bring and enforce suits against our company. Our company was incorporated under the Ontario Business Corporations Act. A majority of our company’s directors and officers are residents of Canada and substantially all of our assets are located outside of the United States. Consequently, it may be difficult for United States investors to effect service of process in the United States upon those directors or officers who are not residents of the United States, or to realize in the United States upon judgments of United States courts predicated upon civil liabilities under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. There is substantial doubt whether an original action could be brought successfully in Canada against any of such persons or our company predicated solely upon such civil liabilities.

Trading of our company’s stock may be restricted by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s “Penny Stock” regulations which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our company’s stock.

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our company’s securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors.” The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. 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 in a form prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission which 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 these 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 stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. Our company believes that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of, our common stock.

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our company’s stock.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our company’s common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our company’s stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our company’s shares.

- 9 -

Trading in our company’s common shares on the OTC Bulletin Board is limited and sporadic making it difficult for our company’s shareholders to sell their shares or liquidate their investments.

The trading price of our company’s common shares has been and may continue to be subject to wide fluctuations. The stock market has generally experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with no current business operation. There can be no assurance that trading prices and price earnings ratios previously experienced by our company’s common shares will be matched or maintained. These broad market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of the common shares, regardless of our company’s operating performance.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs for our company and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

ITEM 4         Information on the Company

A.         History and Development of the Company

Our company was incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario (specifically under the Ontario Business Corporations Act) on April 24, 1967 under the name “Jolly Jumper Products of America Limited”. On September 25, 1987, our name was changed to “Sun Valley Hot Springs Ranch Inc.”. We changed our name to “Tri-Valley Free Trade Inc.” on March 26, 1991 and to “Tri-Valley Investments Corporation” on June 19, 1995. On October 2, 1998, we changed our name to “Tri-Lateral Venture Corporation”. On May 6, 2004, we changed our name to “Pan American Gold Corporation” and on November 10, 2008, we changed our name to our present and legal name “Newcastle Resources Ltd.”. We are a reporting issuer under the securities laws of the Province of Ontario and the Province of British Columbia.

Our corporate offices are located at Suite 605-475 Howe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 2B3. Our telephone number is (604) 684-4312 and our facsimile number is (604) 689-0646.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, we continued to be engaged in the business of acquiring, exploring and developing resource properties. Following the abandonment of our Huicicila (Miravalles) properties in Mexico and the recent termination of an option and purchase agreement with respect to our Lennie Property (as described below), we are currently seeking opportunities to acquire prospective or existing mineral properties, prospective or producing oil and gas properties or other oil and gas resource related projects. We are also seeking opportunities outside of the resources sector. Simultaneously, we are seeking business opportunities with established business entities for the merger of a target business with our company. In certain instances, a target business may wish to become a subsidiary of our company or may wish to contribute assets to us rather than merge.

On April 18, 2008, our inactive US subsidiary, Pan American Gold Corporation (Nevada) was dissolved.

On October 7, 2008, our Mexican subsidiary, Compania Minera P.A.M. de C.V. was declared inactive by the Mexican registrar of companies. On December 2, 2008, we disposed of the shares of our Mexican subsidiary. We currently have no subsidiaries.

On November 10, 2008, our issued and outstanding common shares were consolidated on the basis of one (1) common share for every (30) common shares held and our name was changed to “Newcastle Resources Ltd.”. The reverse split and name change were effected with the OTC Bulletin Board on November 28, 2008 at which time our trading symbol was changed to “NCSLF”.

On April 14, 2009, we entered into an option and purchase agreement with Premier Gold Mines Limited (“Premier”), whereby we optioned Premier our 100% interest in ten patented mining claims known as the “Lennie Property”. In order to exercise the option, Premier agreed to pay $400,000 in cash payments and issue an aggregate of 160,000 common shares of Premier to us in prescribed amounts over three years, including $100,000 (received) and 40,000 common shares (received) on signing of the agreement. A 3.0% Net Smelter Return royalty (“NSR”) was to be payable to our company, of which one-third (1% NSR) could be purchased by Premier at any time for the sum of $1,000,000. In addition, Premier committed to incur a minimum of $750,000 (incurred) of exploration expenditures over the three year option term, including $250,000 in the first year.

- 10 -

On April 1, 2010, Premier terminated the April 14, 2009 option and purchase agreement on the Lennie Property. In consideration for the termination, Premier agreed to issue to our company 20,000 common shares of Premier (received), pay for an environmental clean-up or remediation costs or liability arising from Premier’s activities on the Lennie Property and deliver all technical information, surveys, data, reports and other documents related to the Lennie Property that were prepared on behalf of Premier. Premier incurred approximately $1,400,000 in exploration related expenditures on the Lennie Property in 2009.

B.         Business Overview

We are an exploration stage company that has not yet generated or realized any revenues from our business operations. We currently own the Lennie Property.

As an exploration stage company, we are currently seeking opportunities to acquire prospective or existing mineral properties, prospective or producing oil and gas properties or other oil and gas resource related projects. We are also seeking opportunities outside of the resource sector. Simultaneously, we are seeking business opportunities with established business entities for the merger of a target business with our company. In certain instances, a target business may wish to become a subsidiary of our company or may wish to contribute assets to our company rather than merge.

Management of our company believes that there are perceived benefits to being a reporting company with a class of publicly-traded securities. These are commonly thought to include: (i) the ability to use registered securities to acquire assets or businesses; (ii) increased visibility in the financial community; (iii) the facilitation of borrowing from financial institutions; (iv) improved trading efficiency; (v) stockholder liquidity; (vi) greater ease in subsequently raising capital; (vii) compensation of key employees through stock options; (viii) enhanced corporate image; and (ix) a presence in the United States capital market.

We may seek a business opportunity with entities who have recently commenced operations, or entities who wish to utilize the public marketplace in order to raise additional capital in order to expand business development activities, to develop a new product or service, or for other corporate purposes. We may acquire assets and establish wholly-owned subsidiaries in various businesses or acquire existing businesses as subsidiaries.

In implementing a structure for a particular business acquisition or opportunity, we may become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, or licensing agreement with another corporation or entity. We may also acquire stock or assets of an existing business. Upon the consummation of a transaction, it is likely that our company’s present management will no longer be in control of our company. In addition, it is likely that our company’s officers and directors will, as part of the terms of the acquisition transaction, resign and be replaced by one or more new officers and directors.

As of the date hereof, management has not entered into any formal written agreements for a business combination or opportunity. When any such agreement is reached, we intend to disclose such an agreement by filing a news release.

We anticipate that the selection of a business opportunity in which to participate will be complex and without certainty of success. Management believes that there are numerous firms in various industries seeking the perceived benefits of being a publicly registered corporation. Business opportunities may be available in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to locate compatible business opportunities.

As an exploration stage company, we are not able to fund our cash requirements through our current operations. Historically, we have been able to raise a limited amount of capital through private placements of our equity stock, but we are uncertain about our continued ability to raise funds privately given the current economic situation. Further, we believe that we may have difficulties raising capital until we locate a prospective property or non-resource business through which we can pursue our plan of operation. If our company is unable to secure adequate capital to continue our acquisition efforts, our company’s shareholders may lose some or all of their investment and our business may fail.

C.         Organizational Structure

Our company has no subsidiaries.

D.         Property, Plant and Equipment

Our office facilities at Suite 605-475 Howe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada are being rented at a cost of $500 per month, which includes out-of-pocket costs associated with the operation of our offices such as telephone, photocopier and other direct expenses. We anticipate that these premises will be sufficient for our business operations for the foreseeable future.

Our company currently owns the Lennie Property.

The Lennie Property

We have a 100% interest in the Lennie Property, a gold exploration project located in the Red Lake Mining District of Ontario, Canada. In addition to the surface rights, we own ten patented claims for the mineral rights on the Lennie Property. The Lennie Property is strategically located northeast of the Red Lake Gold Mines complex along the same geological contact that hosts the major gold mines in Red Lake. It covers the important unconformity between the ore hosting Balmer volcanic rocks and the overlying sedimentary rocks. Exploration programs, including diamond drilling, on the Lennie Property have focused on folded ultramafic rocks and conjugate fault structures.

On April 14, 2009, we entered into an option and purchase agreement with Premier, whereby we optioned our 100% interest in the Lennie Property to Premier. In order to exercise the option, Premier agreed to pay us $400,000 in cash payments and issue us an aggregate of 160,000 common shares of Premier in prescribed amounts over three years, including $100,000 (received) and 40,000 common shares (received) on signing of the agreement. A 3.0% Net Smelter Return royalty (“NSR”) was to be payable to us, of which one-third (1% NSR) could be purchased by Premier at any time for the sum of $1,000,000. In addition, Premier had committed to incur a minimum of $750,000 (incurred) of exploration expenditures over the three year option term, including $250,000 in the first year.

On April 1, 2010, Premier terminated the April 14, 2009 option and purchase agreement on the Lennie Property. In consideration for the termination, Premier agreed to issue us 20,000 common shares (received) of Premier, pay for an environmental clean-up or remediation costs or liability arising from Premier’s activities on the Lennie Property and deliver all technical information, surveys, data, reports and other documents related to the Lennie Property that were prepared on behalf of Premier. Premier incurred approximately $1,400,000 in exploration related expenditures related to diamond drilling on the Lennie Property in 2009.

ITEM 4A         Unresolved Staff Comments

Not applicable.

ITEM 5           Operating and Financial Review and Prospects

The information in this section is presented in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, and has not been reconciled to United States generally accepted accounting principles.

A.          Operating Results

Year Ended December 31, 2009 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2008

General and administrative expenses totalled $140,008 for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $135,915 for the year ended December 31, 2008. Management fees increased to $3,000 per month from $2,000 per month beginning April 2009. In addition, we incurred consulting fees of $8,880 during 2009 related to an independent assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting. Audit and legal fees decreased in 2009 as we were undergoing a corporate reorganization during 2008 which was substantially complete by the middle of 2009.

- 12 -

We incurred net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 of $79,656 or $0.06 per share compared to a net loss of $170,270 or ($0.14) per share for the year ended December 31, 2008. The increase in the net loss was primarily due to the gain on the option of the Lennie Property to Premier of $154,802 which represents the proceeds ($100,000 and 40,000 common shares of Premier Gold Mines valued at $78,400) in excess of the book value of the Lennie Property. In addition, we recorded a gain on sale of the 40,000 shares of Premier of $22,423 which represents the proceeds of disposition of $100,823 in excess of the value of the shares of Premier on the date of the option and purchase agreement of $78,400. Finally, recent strength in the Canadian dollar versus the US dollar resulted in an exchange gain on loans and advances payable of $42,439 for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to an exchange loss of $42,605 for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Year Ended December 31, 2008 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2007

General and administrative expenses totalled $135,915 for the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to $373,800 for the year ended December 31, 2007. Our decreased activity in exploration and in general operations caused expenses to decrease in virtually all categories. The largest decrease was in stock-based compensation expense as there were no options granted or vested during the current year. The only expenses that increased were legal and transfer agent fees, which both increased as a result of a corporate restructuring process that began in 2008 and has continued in 2009.

We incurred a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2008 of $170,270 or ($0.14) per share compared to a net loss of $602,917 or ($0.50) per share for the year ended December 31, 2007. The decrease in net loss in 2008 was due to the decreased activity in exploration and in general operations.

In early 2007, we decided to dispose of our interest in the Huicicila (Miravalles) property in Nayarit State, Mexico, based on the difficulty in securing financing and the limited exploration season, and determined to seek new properties and raise additional financings. This property would have required a significant level of expenditure in the summer of 2007 in order to maintain our interest and consequently the disposition decision was made.

B.         Liquidity and Capital Resources

As at December 31, 2009

We had a working capital deficit of $190,827 as at December 31, 2009 compared to a working capital deficit of $293,007 as at December 31, 2008.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, we used $169,941 on operating activities, received $199,749 from investing activities and received $30,050 from financial activities, thereby increasing our cash position from $30,354 at December 31, 2008 to $90,212 at December 31, 2009.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, we received advances for working capital of US$25,000 (2008: US$160,000) which are included in current liabilities as advances payable. These advances are unsecured, non-interest bearing and have no specific terms of repayment.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, we received $100,000 and 40,000 common shares of Premier Gold Mines Limited pursuant to an option and purchase agreement on the Lennie Property. We sold the 40,000 common shares for proceeds of $100,823.

We are currently seeking opportunities to acquire prospective or existing mineral properties, prospective or producing oil and gas properties or other oil and gas resource related projects. Simultaneously, we are seeking business opportunities with established business entities for the merger of a target business with our company. In certain instances, a target business may wish to become a subsidiary of us or may wish to contribute assets to us rather than merge. We have not entered into any definitive agreements to date and there can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into any definitive agreements. We anticipate that any new acquisition or business opportunities by our company will require additional financing. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to acquire the financing necessary to enable us to pursue our plan of operation. If our company requires additional financing and we are unable to acquire such funds, our business may fail.

- 13 -

Even if we are able to acquire an interest in a mineral or oil and gas property or enter into a business opportunity and obtain the necessary funding, there is no assurance that any revenues would be generated by us or that revenues generated would be sufficient to provide a return to investors.

We estimate that our general and administrative expenses will be approximately $120,000 for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2010. We had cash and cash equivalents of $90,212 and current assets of $91,143 as at December 31, 2009. Cash reserves are not sufficient to extinguish our obligations and funds will be required for general operations and to investigate new projects. We will require the continued support of our creditors. Additional loans or advances, option payments or equity financings will be required. We propose to complete a private placement of up to US$500,000 through the issuance of up to 10,000,000 post consolidation shares at US$0.05 per share in the near future.

We will incur additional expenses if we are successful in entering into an agreement to acquire an interest in a prospective or existing mineral property or oil and gas property or a business opportunity. If we acquire any property interests, we will require significant funds to develop the property in addition to any acquisition costs. It is not possible to estimate such funding requirements until such time as we enter into a definitive agreement to acquire an interest in a property or enter into a business combination.

Exploration Program

We do not expect to expend any amounts on exploration of the Lennie property over the twelve month period ending December 31, 2010.

Purchase of Significant Equipment

We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment over the twelve month period ending December 31, 2010.

Employees

Our company is currently operated by John Toljanich, as our president, secretary and chief executive officer, and Brent Petterson, as our chief financial officer. We currently have no employees and we do not anticipate hiring any employees over the twelve month period ending December 31, 2010.

US GAAP

The results of operations discussed above are based on our audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. Differences between Canadian generally accepted accounting principles and principles generally accepted in the United States are listed and quantified in Note 13 to the audited financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report. Significant differences between Canadian GAAP and US GAAP include:

- Canadian GAAP allows mineral exploration costs to be capitalized during the search for a commercially mineable deposit. Under US GAAP, mineral exploration costs are expensed as incurred and mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred using the guidance in EITF 04-02, “Whether Mineral Rights are Tangible or Intangible Assets”. Our company assesses the carrying costs for impairment under SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” at each fiscal quarter end. As we have not established proven and probable reserves on any of our mineral properties, an impairment loss is recognized for capitalized mineral property acquisition costs.

Critical Accounting Policies-Resource Properties

All costs related to the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties are capitalized. Upon commencement of commercial production, the related accumulated costs are amortized to income using the unit of production method over estimated recoverable ore reserves. Management periodically assesses carrying values of non-producing properties and if management determines that the carrying values cannot be recovered or the carrying values are related to properties that have lapsed, the unrecoverable amounts are expensed.

- 14 -

The recoverability of the carried amounts of mineral properties is dependent on the existence of economically recoverable ore reserves and the ability to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development of such ore reserves and the success of future operations. Our company has not yet determined whether any of its mineral properties contains economically recoverable reserves. Amounts capitalized as mineral properties represent costs incurred to date, less write-downs and recoveries, and does not necessarily reflect present or future values.

When options are granted on mineral properties or properties are sold, proceeds are credited to the cost of the property. If no future capital expenditure is required and proceeds exceed costs, the excess proceeds are reported as a gain.

Critical Accounting Policies-Foreign currency translation

The accounts of the Company are stated in Canadian dollars. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary balance sheet accounts are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date. Expenses are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

Our company’s US and Mexican subsidiaries were considered integrated foreign subsidiaries which were financially and operationally dependent on our company. Our company used the temporal method to translate the accounts of its integrated US and Mexican operations into Canadian dollars. Monetary assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities were translated at historical rates. Expenses were translated at average rates for the year. Any resulting translation gains or losses were recognized in operations.

Changes in Accounting Policy

In June 2009, the CICA amended Section 3862, Financial Instruments – Disclosures. These amendments are applicable to financial statements relating to our company’s annual financial statements ending on December 31, 2009. The amendments provide for additional disclosure requirements about fair value measurements of financial instruments and enhanced liquidity risk disclosure requirements for publicly accountable enterprises. The additional required disclosures are included in Note 11 of our company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2009, the CICA issued Section 1582, Business Combinations, which replaces former guidance on business combinations. Section 1582 establishes principles and requirements of the acquisition method for business combination and related disclosures. The Section applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after January 2011 with earlier adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2009, the CICA issued Section 1601, Consolidated Financial Statements, and 1602, Non-controlling interests, which replaces existing guidance. Section 1602 provides guidance on accounting for a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary in consolidated financial statements subsequent to a business combination. These standards are effective on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period on or after January 2011 with earlier adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2006, the CICA Accounting Standards Board (“AcSB”) adopted a strategic plan for the direction of accounting standards in Canada. As part of that plan, accounting standards in Canada for public companies will converge with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). On February 13, 2008, the AcSB confirmed that the standards will become effective for all publicly accountable enterprises in interim and annual financial statements for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Our company continues to monitor and assess the impact of convergence of Canadian generally accepted accounting principles and IFRS.

International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)

Our company will be required to report utilizing IFRS effective on January 1, 2011. In order to accomplish this, we will need to have a comparative statement prepared utilizing IFRS available for January 1, 2010. Effectively this means that IFRS will need to be implemented January 1, 2010 with an opening balance sheet. Our company’s CFO has taken IFRS seminars to become familiar with IFRS transition issues. In addition, our audit committee will determine whether additional training for our other directors and officers is necessary. Our company is currently determining which International Accounting Standards will affect our financial statements and if there are any choices to be made in the adoption of the new standards.

C.         Research and Development, Patents, Licenses, etc.

We do not currently and did not previously have research and development policies in place. Over the past three fiscal years, we expended minimal amounts on the exploration of our various mining properties.

We do not currently know of any trends that would be material to our operations.

E.         Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

F.         Contractual Obligations

We do not have any required expenditures pursuant to any contractual obligations. The contracts pursuant to which we have the right to acquire further interests in our mineral properties are option agreements, whereby we may or may not elect to expend further funds on our properties.

G.         Safe Harbor

Not applicable.

No funds were set aside or accrued by our company during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 to provide pension, retirement or similar benefits for our directors or officers pursuant to any existing plan provided or contributed to by us or our subsidiaries.

Compensation of Directors

We paid $1,000 to directors of our company for services as directors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. We have no formal plan for compensating our directors for their service in their capacity as directors, although such directors are expected in the future to receive stock options to purchase common shares as awarded by our board of directors or (as to future stock options) a compensation committee which may be established. Directors are entitled to reimbursement for reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attendance at meetings of our board of directors. Our board of directors may award special remuneration to any director undertaking any special services on our behalf other than services ordinarily required of a director.

C.          Board Practices

The directors are re-elected at the annual general meeting of our shareholders and our officers are re-elected at a directors’ meeting following the annual general meeting. The last annual general meeting was held on October 6, 2009 and each of our current directors was elected thereat and will continue to hold his respective office until his successor is elected or appointed at the next annual general meeting, unless his office is earlier vacated under any of the relevant provisions of our Articles or of the Ontario Business Corporations Act.

There are no service contracts between our company and any of our officers, directors or employees providing for benefits upon termination of employment.

Audit Committee

As of the date of this annual report, our entire board of directors functions as our audit committee.

The audit committee also reports to the board of directors with respect to such matters and recommends the selection of independent auditors. Before financial statements that are to be submitted to the shareholders at an annual general meeting are considered by the board of directors, such financial statements are submitted to the audit committee for review with the independent auditors, following which the report of the audit committee on the financial statements is submitted to the board of directors. The audit committee acted by unanimous consent resolution during the year ended December 31, 2009.

Remuneration Committee

Stock Option Plan

We have an incentive stock option plan that provides for the grant of incentive stock options to purchase our common shares to our directors, officers and key employees and other persons providing ongoing services to us. Our stock option plan is administered by our board of directors. The maximum number of our common shares which may be reserved and set aside for issuance under our stock option plan is 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of our company’s stock on the date of issue. Each option upon its exercise entitles the grantee to one common share. The exercise price of common shares subject to an option will be determined by the board of directors at the time of grant. Non-incentive stock options may be granted under our stock option plan for an exercise period of up to ten years from the date of grant of the option or such lesser periods as may be determined by our board of directors. Incentive stock options may be granted under our stock option plan for an exercise period of up to five years from the date of grant.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, we did not grant any stock options and no options previously granted to directors or officers were re-priced.

A.          Major Shareholders

There were 1,258,797 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of June 18, 2010. As of June 18, 2010, there are no persons known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than five (5%) of our common shares.

D.          Exchange Controls

There are no government laws, decrees or regulations in Canada which restrict the export or import of capital or which affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to non-resident holders of our common shares. Any remittances of dividends to United States residents and to other non-residents are, however, subject to withholding tax. See “Taxation” below.

E.          Taxation

Material Canadian Federal Income Tax Consequences

We consider that the following general summary fairly describes the principal Canadian federal income tax consequences applicable to a holder of our common shares who is a resident of the United States, who is not, will not be and will not be deemed to be, a resident of Canada for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any applicable tax treaty and who does not use or hold, and is not deemed to use or hold, his common shares in the capital of our company in connection with carrying on a business in Canada (a “non-resident holder”).

This summary is based upon the current provisions of the Income Tax Act, the regulations thereunder (the “Regulations”), the current publicly announced administrative and assessing policies of the Canada Revenue Agency and the Canada-United States Tax Convention (1980), as amended (the “Treaty”). This summary also takes into account the amendments to the Income Tax Act and the Regulations publicly announced by the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the “Tax Proposals”) and assumes that all such Tax Proposals will be enacted in their present form. However, no assurances can be given that the Tax Proposals will be enacted in the form proposed, or at all. This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax consequences applicable to a holder of our common shares and, except for the foregoing, this summary does not take into account or anticipate any changes in law, whether by legislative, administrative or judicial decision or action, nor does it take into account provincial, territorial or foreign income tax legislation or considerations, which may differ from the Canadian federal income tax consequences described herein.

This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, and should not be construed to be, legal, business or tax advice to any particular holder or prospective holder of our common shares, and no opinion or representation with respect to the tax consequences to any holder or prospective holder of our common shares is made. Accordingly, holders and prospective holders of our common shares should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the income tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of our common shares in their particular circumstances.

         Dividends

Dividends paid on our common shares to a non-resident holder will be subject under the Income Tax Act to withholding tax which tax is deducted at source by our company. The withholding tax rate for dividends prescribed by the Income Tax Act is 25% but this rate may be reduced under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty. Under the Treaty, the withholding tax rate is reduced to 15% on dividends paid by our company to residents of the United States and is further reduced to 5% where the beneficial owner of the dividends is a corporation resident in the United States that owns at least 10% of the voting shares of our company.

         Capital Gains

A non-resident holder is not subject to tax under the Income Tax Act in respect of a capital gain realized upon the disposition of a common share of our company unless such share is “taxable Canadian property” (as defined in the Income Tax Act) of the non-resident holder. Our common shares generally will not be taxable Canadian property of a non-resident holder unless the non-resident holder alone or together with non-arm’s length persons owned, or had an interest in an option in respect of, not less than 25% of the issued shares of any class of our capital stock at any time during the 60 month period immediately preceding the disposition of the shares. In the case of a non-resident holder resident in the United States for whom shares of our company are taxable Canadian property, no Canadian taxes will generally be payable on a capital gain realized on such shares by reason of the Treaty unless the value of such shares is derived principally from real property situated in Canada.

Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a general discussion of certain possible United States Federal foreign income tax matters under current law, generally applicable to a U.S. Holder (as defined below) of our common shares who holds such shares as capital assets. This discussion does not address all aspects of United States Federal income tax matters and does not address consequences peculiar to persons subject to special provisions of Federal income tax law, such as those described below as excluded from the definition of a U.S. Holder. In addition, this discussion does not cover any state, local or foreign tax consequences. See “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Consequences” above.

The following discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury Regulations, published Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) rulings, published administrative positions of the IRS and court decisions that are currently applicable, any or all of which could be materially and adversely changed, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time. In addition, this discussion does not consider the potential effects, both adverse and beneficial, of any recently proposed legislation which, if enacted, could be applied, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time. No assurance can be given that the IRS will agree with such statements and conclusions, or will not take, or a court will not adopt, a position contrary to any position taken herein.

The following discussion is for general information only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal, business or tax advice to any holder or prospective holder of our common shares, and no opinion or representation with respect to the United States Federal income tax consequences to any such holder or prospective holder is made. Accordingly, holders and prospective holders of common shares are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to Federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of our common shares.

         U.S. Holders

As used herein, a “U.S. Holder” includes a holder of less than 10% of our common shares who is a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or of any political subdivision thereof, any entity which is taxable as a corporation for United States tax purposes and any other person or entity whose ownership of our common shares is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States. A U.S. Holder does not include persons subject to special provisions of Federal income tax law, such as tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, broker-dealers, non-resident alien individuals or foreign corporations whose ownership of our common shares is not effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States and shareholders who acquired their shares through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation.

         Distributions

The gross amount of a distribution paid to a U.S. Holder will generally be taxable as dividend income to the U.S. Holder for United States federal income tax purposes to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under United States federal income tax principles. Distributions which are taxable dividends and which meet certain requirements will be “unqualified dividend income” and taxed to U.S. Holders at a maximum United States federal rate of 15%. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the common shares and, to the extent in excess of such tax basis, will be treated as a gain from a sale or exchange of such shares.

- 24 -

         Capital Gains

In general, upon a sale, exchange or other disposition of common shares, a U.S. Holder will generally recognize a capital gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale or other distribution and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such shares. Such gain or loss will be a United States source gain or loss and will be treated as a long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period of the shares exceeds one year. If the U.S. Holder is an individual, any capital gain will generally be subject to United States federal income tax at preferential rates if specified minimum holding periods are met. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to significant limitations.

         Foreign Tax Credit

A U.S. Holder who pays (or has had withheld from distributions) Canadian income tax with respect to the ownership of our common shares may be entitled, at the option of the U.S. Holder, to either a deduction or a tax credit for such foreign tax paid or withheld. Generally, it will be more advantageous to claim a credit because a credit reduces United States Federal income taxes on a dollar-for-dollar basis, while a deduction merely reduces the taxpayer’s income subject to tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and generally applies to all foreign income taxes paid by (or withheld from) the U.S. Holder during that year. There are significant and complex limitations which apply to the tax credit, among which is an ownership period requirement and the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of the U.S. Holder’s United States income tax liability that the U.S. Holder’s foreign source income bears to his or its worldwide taxable income. In determining the application of this limitation, the various items of income and deduction must be classified into foreign and domestic sources. Complex rules govern this classification process. The availability of the foreign tax credit and the application of these complex limitations on the tax credit are fact specific and holders and prospective holders of our common shares should consult their own tax advisors regarding their individual circumstances.

         Passive Foreign Investment Corporation

We do not believe that we are a passive foreign investment corporation (a “PFIC”). However, since PFIC status depends upon the composition of a company’s income and assets and the market value of its assets and shares from time to time, there is no assurance that we will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year. If we were treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder held shares, certain adverse tax consequences could apply to the U.S. Holder.

If we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year, gains recognized by such U.S. Holder on a sale or other disposition of shares would be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the shares. The amount allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other exchange and to any year before we became a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for individuals or corporations, as applicable, and an interest charge would be imposed on the amount allocated to such taxable year. Further, any distribution in respect of shares in excess of 125% of the average of the annual distributions on shares received by the U.S. Holder during the preceding three years or the U.S. Holder’s holding period, whichever is shorter, would be subject to taxation as described above. Certain elections may be available to U.S. Holders that may mitigate some of the adverse consequences resulting from PFIC status. However, regardless of whether such elections are made, dividends paid by a PFIC will not be “qualified dividend income” and will generally be taxed at the higher rates applicable to other items of ordinary income.

U.S. Holders and prospective holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the potential application of the PFIC rules to their ownership of our common shares.

ITEM 15T          Controls and Procedures

A. Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated our company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 20-F. Based on this evaluation, these officers concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 20-F, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by our company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our company’s management, including our company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective was due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as identified below under the heading “Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.” Management anticipates that such disclosure controls and procedures will not be effective until the material weaknesses are remediated. Our company intends to remediate the material weaknesses as set out below.

- 26 -

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected.

B. Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) for our company. Our company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance, not absolute assurance, regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our company’s assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, and that our company’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009 based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. This evaluation included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as at December 31, 2009 due to the following material weaknesses: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, financial reporting and corporate governance.

Our company has taken steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal controls over financial reporting, however these steps were not complete as of December 31, 2009. During the period covered by this annual report on Form 20-F, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending December 31, 2010: (i) address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, financial reporting and corporate governance. The remediation efforts set out above are largely dependent upon our company securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

Our internal control over financial reporting was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.

C. Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in internal controls over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2009. However, as a result of the evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, conducted by our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we expect to make such changes in the year ended December 31, 2010.

- 27 -

ITEM 16          [Reserved]

ITEM 16A          Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our board of directors has determined that it does not have a member of its audit committee that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 16A(b) of Form 20-F, and is “independent” as the term is defined by Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4200(a)(15).

We believe that the members of our board of directors are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. In addition, we believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development and the fact that we have not generated revenues to date.

ITEM 16B          Code of Ethics

Code of Ethics

Effective July 15, 2004, our company’s board of directors adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to, among other persons, our company’s president (being our principal executive officer) and our company’s chief financial officer (being our principal financial and accounting officer and controller), as well as persons performing similar functions. As adopted, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics sets forth written standards that are designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

(1) honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

(2) full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the Securities and Exchange Commission and in other public communications made by us;

(3) compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

(4) the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics; and

(5) accountability for adherence to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics requires, among other things, that all of our company’s personnel shall be accorded full access to our president and secretary with respect to any matter which may arise relating to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Further, all of our company’s personnel are to be accorded full access to our company’s board of directors if any such matter involves an alleged breach of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by our President or Secretary.

In addition, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics emphasizes that all employees, and particularly managers and/or supervisors, have a responsibility for maintaining financial integrity within our company, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, and federal, provincial and state securities laws. Any employee who becomes aware of any incidents involving financial or accounting manipulation or other irregularities, whether by witnessing the incident or being told of it, must report it to his or her immediate supervisor or to our company’s president (who is also our secretary). If the incident involves an alleged breach of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by the president, the incident must be reported to any member of our board of directors. Any failure to report such inappropriate or irregular conduct of others is to be treated as a severe disciplinary matter. It is against our company policy to retaliate against any individual who reports in good faith the violation or potential violation of our company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by another.

Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as Exhibit 14.1 to our annual report filed on July 15, 2004. We will provide a copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to any person without charge, upon request. Requests can be sent to: Newcastle Resources Ltd., Suite 605 – 475 Howe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 2B3.

ITEM 16C          Principal Accountant Fees and Services

Audit Fees

Our board of directors appointed Manning Elliott LLP, Chartered Accountants, as independent auditors to audit our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. The aggregate fees billed by Manning Elliott LLP for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were $20,000 and $22,500 respectively.

Audit Related Fees

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services by Manning Elliot LLP relating to our quarterly financial statements which are not reported under the caption “Audit Fees” above, were $Nil and $Nil, respectively.

Tax Fees

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the aggregate fees billed for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning by Manning Elliott LLP were $2,500 and $Nil, respectively.

All Other Fees

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the aggregate fees billed by Manning Elliott LLP for other non-audit professional services, other than those services listed above, totalled $Nil and $Nil, respectively.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Effective May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that require that before Manning Elliot LLP, Chartered Accountants, is engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:

• approved by our audit committee; or

• entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the audit committee, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the audit committee is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the audit committee’s responsibilities to management.

The audit committee pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. The pre-approval process has been implemented in response to the new rules. Therefore, the audit committee does not have records of what percentage of the above fees were pre-approved. However, all of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the audit committee either before or after the respective services were rendered.

The audit committee has considered the nature and amount of the fees billed by Manning Elliot LLP, Chartered Accountants, and believes that the provision of the services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining the independence of Manning Elliot LLP, Chartered Accountants.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
of Newcastle Resources Ltd.
(An Exploration Stage Company)

We have audited the balance sheets of Newcastle Resources Ltd. (An Exploration Stage Company) as at December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the statements of operations and comprehensive loss, cash flows and stockholders’ deficiency for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009. 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 the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Newcastle Resources Ltd. (An Exploration Stage Company) as at December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

COMMENTS BY AUDITORS ON CANADA – UNITED STATES REPORTING DIFFERENCES

The standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) require the addition of an explanatory 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. Although we conducted our audits in accordance with both Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), our report to the shareholders dated April 6, 2010 is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting standards which do not permit a reference to such conditions and events in the auditor’s report when these are adequately disclosed in the financial statements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2009 and 2008

(Stated in Canadian Dollars)

Note 1 Nature and Continuance of Operations

Newcastle Resources Ltd. (formerly Pan American Gold Corporation) (“the Company”) was incorporated in the Province of Ontario, Canada and its common shares are listed for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board in the United States. On November 10, 2008, the Company changed its name from Pan American Gold Corporation to Newcastle Resources Ltd.

On April 18, 2008, the Company’s inactive US subsidiary, Pan American Gold Corporation (Nevada) was dissolved. On October 7, 2008, the Company’s Mexican subsidiary, Compania Minera P.A.M. de C.V. (“PAM”) was declared inactive by the Mexican registrar of companies and on December 2, 2008 the Company disposed of the shares of PAM.

The Company is in the exploration stage and its principal business activity is the sourcing and exploration of mineral properties in Canada. The Company has not yet determined whether any of these properties contain ore 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 claims, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to complete the development, and upon future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition thereof. It is reasonably possible that economically recoverable reserves may not be discovered and accordingly a material portion of the carrying value of mineral claims and options could be written-off.

At December 31, 2009, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $190,827 (2008: $293,007) and had an accumulated deficit of $9,255,203 (2008: $9,334,859) which has been financed primarily by the issuance of equity. These financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of its assets and its liabilities in the normal course of business. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is uncertain and dependent upon obtaining the financing necessary to meet its future exploration commitments and to complete the development of its properties and/or realize proceeds from the sale of one or more of the properties. These financial statements do not reflect any adjustments related to carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Accounting

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada.

The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2008, included the assets and liabilities of the Company’s formerly wholly-owned subsidiaries, Pan American Gold Corporation (Nevada) (“Pan American”) and Compania Minera P.A.M. de C.V. (“Compania”) and the consolidated statement of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 included the accounts of Pan American and Compania. All inter-company transactions and balances were eliminated.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2009, includes only the accounts of the Company due to the disposal of its subsidiaries on April 14, 2008 for Pan American and on December 2, 2008 for Compania. As such, the financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2009 are not consolidated.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include an investment in a redeemable guaranteed investment certificate (“GIC”) with an interest rate of prime minus 2.0% per annum. At December 31, 2009, the fair value of the GIC was $80,000 (2008 - $Nil).

Mineral Properties

All costs related to the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties are capitalized. Upon commencement of commercial production, the related accumulated costs are amortized to income using the unit of production method over estimated recoverable ore reserves. Management periodically assesses carrying values of non-producing properties and if management determines that the carrying values cannot be recovered or the carrying values are related to properties that have lapsed, the unrecoverable amounts are expensed.

The recoverability of the carried amounts of mineral properties is dependent on the existence of economically recoverable ore reserves and the ability to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development of such ore reserves and the success of future operations. The Company has not yet determined whether any of its mineral properties contains economically recoverable reserves. Amounts capitalized as mineral properties represent costs incurred to date, less write-downs and recoveries, and does not necessarily reflect present or future values.

When options are granted on mineral properties or properties are sold, proceeds are credited to the cost of the property. If no future capital expenditure is required and proceeds exceed costs, the excess proceeds are reported as a gain.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies – (cont’d)

Foreign Currency Translation and Subsidiary Translation

The accounts of the Company are stated in Canadian dollars. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary balance sheet accounts are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date. Expenses are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

The Company’s US and Mexican subsidiaries were considered integrated foreign subsidiaries which were financially and operationally dependent on the Company. The Company used the temporal method to translate the accounts of its integrated US and Mexican operations into Canadian dollars. Monetary assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities were translated at historical rates. Expenses were translated at average rates for the year. Any resulting translation gains or losses were recognized in operations.

Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the years. The treasury stock method is used for the calculation of diluted loss per share. Stock options and warrants are dilutive when the average market price of the common shares during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options and warrants. As the Company recorded a net loss in 2008 and2007, basic and diluted net loss per share are the same since the exercise of warrants, or options would be anti-dilutive. Although the company recorded net income in 2009, there were no warrants or options outstanding and therefore basic and diluted income per share is the same.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company accounts for the granting of stock options and direct awards of stock to employees, directors and non-employees using the fair value method whereby all awards will be recorded at fair value on the date of grant. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Compensation expense is recognized over the applicable vesting period with a corresponding increase in contributed surplus. When the options are exercised, share capital is credited for the consideration received and the related contributed surplus is decreased.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies – (cont’d)

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, future tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted tax rates expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on future tax assets and liabilities of changes in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that substantive enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is recorded against any future tax asset if it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized.

Financial Instruments

The Company classifies financial assets and liabilities as held-for-trading, available-for-sale, loans and receivables or other financial liabilities depending on their nature. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized at fair value on their initial recognition, except for those arising from certain related party transactions which are accounted for at the transferor’s carrying amount or exchange amount in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountant (“CICA”) Handbook Section 3840 – Related Party Transactions.

Financial assets and liabilities classified as held-for-trading are measured at fair value, with gains and losses recognized in net income. Financial assets classified as held-to-maturity, loans and receivables, and financial liabilities other than those classified as held-for-trading are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest method of amortization. Financial assets classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses being recognized as other comprehensive income until realized, or if an unrealized loss is considered other than temporary, the unrealized loss is recorded in income. The Company has elected to account for transaction costs related to the issuance of financial instruments as a reduction of the carrying value of the related financial instruments.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. The more significant areas requiring the use of estimates relate to recoverability or valuation of mineral properties, the valuation of stock-based compensation and future income tax asset valuation allowances. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions considered to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from the estimates.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies – (cont’d)

Long-lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount of which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company follows the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants’ Handbook Section 3110 “Asset Retirement Obligations” in accounting for its resource properties. This standard requires liability recognition for retirement obligations associated with the Company’s resource properties. The standard requires the Company to recognize the fair value of the liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred and record a corresponding increase in the carrying value of the related long-lived asset. Fair value is estimated using the present value of the estimated future cash outflows. The liability is subsequently adjusted for the passage of time, and is recognized as an accretion expense in the statements of operations. The increase in the carrying value of the asset is amortized on the same basis as resource properties. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not have any asset retirement obligations.

Note 3 Mineral Properties

Lennie Property, Ontario, Canada

Pursuant to an option agreement dated August 31, 1995, the Company earned a 100% interest in 10 mineral claims located in the Red Lake area of Ontario, subject to a 2% net smelter return royalty.

On April 14, 2009, the Company entered into an option and purchase agreement with Premier Gold Mines Limited (“Premier”) to option its 100% interest in the Lennie Property. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company can receive $400,000 and 160,000 common shares of Premier over a period of three years, including $100,000 (received) and 40,000 common shares (received) on signing of the agreement. The shares were valued at $78,400 which represents $1.96 per share being the closing price of Premier’s common shares on April 14, 2009.

A 3% net smelter return royalty is payable to the Company, which includes an underlying 2% royalty. One-third (1% NSR) can be purchased by Premier at any time for the sum of $1,000,000. In addition, Premier must incur a minimum of $750,000 of exploration expenditures over the three year option term, including $250,000 in the first year. The option proceeds in excess of the book value of the Lennie property of $154,802 were shown as gain on option of mineral property in the statement of operations.

Subsequent to year end, Premier terminated the option agreement made between the Company and Premier. See Note 14.

Huicicila Property, Nayarit State, Mexico

On May 15, 2006, the Company acquired the right to earn a 100% interest in the Huicicila Property which covered 994 hectares in Nayarit State, Mexico by completing the following:

Year 1 – Initial payment of US $20,000 (paid) and a second payment of US $40,000 (unpaid) six months subsequent to the initial payment. Additionally, the Company was required to complete fieldwork commitments of US $100,000 (incurred) on direct exploration of the property in that year.

Year 2 – Payment of US $120,000 on the anniversary date of the option and a field work commitment of US $200,000 was required to be completed.

The optionor of the Huicicila Property was a director of the Company.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company abandoned its option on the Huicicila Property. Mineral property costs totalling $234,920 were written off.

Note 5 Share Capital – (cont’d)

Stock-based Compensation Plan – (cont’d)

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value stock options granted. The Black- Scholes model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. The model requires management to make estimates, which are subjective and may not be representative of actual results. Changes in assumptions can materially affect estimates of fair values. For purposes of the calculation, the following assumptions were used:

	2009	2008	2007
Expected dividend yield	-	-	0%
Expected stock price volatility	-	-	123%
Risk-free interest rate	-	-	4.03%
Expected life of options	-	-	5 years

The grant-date fair value of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2007 was $1.20.

Stock-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $Nil (2008: ($447); 2007: $146,994).

Note 9 Changes in Accounting Policy and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Changes in Accounting Policy

On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the following new accounting standards that were issued by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA”).

In January 2009, the CICA issued EIC-173, Credit risk and fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, which clarifies that own credit risk and the credit risk of the counterparty should be taken into account in determining the fair value of financial instruments including derivative instruments. EIC-173 is to be applied retrospectively without restatement of prior periods to all financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in interim and annual financial statements for periods ending on or after the date of issuance of this Abstract. The adoption of this new standard did not have any significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In March 2009, the CICA issued EIC-174, Mining exploration costs, which provides guidance on the accounting and the impairment review of exploration costs. This Abstract applies to interim and annual financial statements relating to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2009. The adoption of this new standard did not have any significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the CICA amended Section 3862, Financial Instruments – Disclosures. These amendments are applicable to financial statements relating to the Company’s annual financial statements ending on December 31, 2009. The amendments provide for additional disclosure requirements about fair value measurements of financial instruments and enhanced liquidity risk disclosure requirements for publicly accountable enterprises. The additional required disclosures are included in Note 11 of these financial statements.

Note 9 Changes in Accounting Policy and Recent Accounting Pronouncements – (cont’d)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2009, the CICA issued Section 1582, Business Combinations, which replaces former guidance on business combinations. Section 1582 establishes principles and requirements of the acquisition method for business combination and related disclosures. The Section applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after January 2011 with earlier adoption permitted. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2009, the CICA issued Section 1601, Consolidated Financial Statements, and 1602, Non-controlling interests, which replaces existing guidance. Section 1602 provides guidance on accounting for a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary in consolidated financial statements subsequent to a business combination. These standards are effective on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period on or after January 2011 with earlier adoption permitted. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2006, the CICA Accounting Standards Board (“AcSB”) adopted a strategic plan for the direction of accounting standards in Canada. As part of that plan, accounting standards in Canada for public companies will converge with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). On February 13, 2008, the AcSB confirmed that the standards will become effective for all publicly accountable enterprises in interim and annual financial statements for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. The Company continues to monitor and assess the impact of convergence of Canadian generally accepted accounting principles and IFRS.

Note 10 Capital Management

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue the development of its mineral properties and to maintain a flexible capital structure for its projects for the benefit of its stakeholders, to maintain creditworthiness and to maximize returns for shareholders over the long term. The Company does not have any externally imposed capital requirements to which it is subject. As the Company is in the exploration stage, its principal source of funds is from the issuance of common shares.

The Company includes the components of shareholders’ equity in its management of capital.

As at December 31, 2009, the Company had capital resources consisting of cash and cash equivalents. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares or adjust the amount of cash and cash equivalents.

Note 10 Capital Management – (cont’d)

The Company’s investment policy is to invest its cash and cash equivalents in investment instruments in high credit quality financial institutions with terms to maturity selected with regards to the expected time of expenditures from continuing operations.

Note 11 Financial Instruments and Risk

Financial Instruments

As at December 31, 2009, the Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, advances payable and loans payable.

Under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, financial instruments are classified into one of the following categories: held for trading, held-to-maturity investments, available-for-sale, loans and receivables and other financial liabilities. The Company classifies its cash and cash equivalents as held-for-trading, amount receivable as loans and receivables, advances and loans payable and accounts payable as other financial liabilities.

Fair Value

The estimated fair values of cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable, accounts payable, advances and loans payable approximate their respective carrying values due to the short period to maturity. For fair value estimates relating to derivatives, the Company classifies its fair value measurements within a fair value hierarchy, which reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements as defined in CICA Handbook section 3862 – Financial Instruments –Disclosures:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

The fair value of advances payable and loans payable are equivalent to their carrying value since they are non-interest bearing.

Note 11 Financial Instruments and Risk – (cont’d)

Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risks consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. To minimize the credit risk the Company places these instruments with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in investment-grade short-term deposit certificates issued by reputable financial institutions with which it keeps its bank accounts.

Liquidity Risk

The Company ensures its holding of cash is sufficient to meet its short-term general and administrative expenditures. All of the Company’s financial liabilities have contractual maturities of 30 days or are due on demand and are subject to normal trade terms. The Company does not have investments in any asset backed deposits.

Foreign Exchange Risk

The Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The Company has liabilities denoted in US dollars. A significant change in the currency exchange rates between the Canadian dollar relative to the US dollar could have an effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position and/or cash flows. The Company has not hedged its exposure to currency fluctuations. The Company has transactions in US dollars (“US$). Accordingly, the Company is exposed to foreign currency risk in respect to these transactions. The Company has not undertaken hedging activities to mitigate this risk. At December 31, 2009, the Company had advances payable of $194,139 (US$185,000) (2008 - $195,648 (US $160,000)) and loans payable of $65,938 (US$62,834) (2008 - $76,833 (US$62,834)) exposed to foreign exchange risk.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company manages its interest rate risk by obtaining the best commercial deposit interest rates available in the market by the major Canadian financial institutions.

The Company has investments in guaranteed investment certificates. The following table summarizes the impact of reasonable possible changes on interest rates for the Company at December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007. The sensitivity analysis is based on the assumption that interest rate changes by 1% with all other variables remaining constant. The 1% sensitivity is based on reasonably possible changes over a financial year, using the observed range of historical rates for the preceding year.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. All marketable securities are subject to price and market volatility.

The Company optioned its interest in the Lennie property to Premier Gold Mines Limited (“Premier”), in part, for common shares of Premier. These shares are subject to market risk. As at December 31, 2009, the Company had received 40,000 of the possible 160,000 common shares of Premier contemplated in the option and purchase agreement.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company sold the 40,000 common shares for proceeds of $100,823 resulting in a gain of $22,423.

Note 12 Disposition and Dissolution of Subsidiaries

On December 2, 2008, the Company sold all outstanding shares of its wholly owned subsidiary, Compania Minera P.A.M., S.A. de C.V., for proceeds of $1 cash, resulting in a gain on disposition of $8,250. The net assets disposed of are as follows:

Net current assets	$	7,906
Net current liabilities		(16,157	)
Net liabilities		(8,251	)
Proceeds of dispositions		1
Gain on disposition	$	8,250

Effective April 14, 2008, the Company dissolved Pan American Gold Corporation (“US Subsidiary”). The US Subsidiary was inactive and as a result there was no material gain or loss on dissolution.

Note 13 Differences Between Canadian and United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada, which differ in certain respect with those principles and practices that the Company would have followed had its financial statements been prepared in accordance with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in the Unites States.

The Company’s accounting principles generally accepted in Canada (“Canadian GAAP”) differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The material differences between Canadian GAAP and US GAAP and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission affecting the Company’s financial statements are summarized as follows:

Resource Properties

Canadian GAAP allows mineral exploration costs to be capitalized during the search for a commercially mineable deposit. Under US GAAP, mineral exploration costs are expensed as incurred and mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred using the guidance in EITF 04-02, “Whether Mineral Rights are Tangible or Intangible Assets”. The Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment under SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” at each fiscal quarter end. As the Company has not established proven and probable reserves on any of its mineral properties, an impairment loss is recognized for capitalized mineral property acquisition costs.

For Canadian GAAP, cash flows relating to mineral property exploration and development are reported as investing activities. For US GAAP, these costs are characterized as operating activities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

US GAAP

In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as the single source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, aside from those issued by the SEC. ASC 105 does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. The adoption of ASC 105 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements, but did eliminate all references to pre-codification standards

In May 2009, FASB issued ASC 855, Subsequent Events, which establishes general standards of for the evaluation, recognition and disclosure of events and transactions that occur after the balance sheet date. Although there is new terminology, the standard is based on the same principles as those that currently exist in the auditing standards. The standard, which includes a new required disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events, is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of ASC 855 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Note 14 Subsequent Event

Subsequent to year end, Premier terminated the option agreement made between the Company and Premier. In consideration for the termination, Premier agreed to issue the Company 20,000 common shares, pay for any environmental clean-up or remediation costs or liability arising from Premier’s activities on the property and deliver all technical information, surveys, data, reports and other documents related to the property that were prepared on behalf of Premier.
