PART I

ITEM 1.         BUSINESS.

We are an independent oil and gas company engaged in exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas. As production of these products continues, they will be sold to purchasers in the immediate area where the products are produced.

Until 2005, our focus was on our undeveloped mineral interests and we were considered, at that time, to be a development stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral and oil and gas properties.  We still hold an interest in undeveloped mineral interests located in New Mexico (the “Antelope Pass Project”). However, in 2005, we suspended activities on our undeveloped mineral properties indefinitely in order to focus on our oil and gas properties and we did not conduct any operations or exploration activities on our undeveloped mineral properties during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008.

During 2005 and 2006, we acquired undeveloped oil and gas interests and commenced exploration activities on those interests.  Our undeveloped oil and gas interests are located in Oklahoma and Mississippi.  In 2006, we commenced oil and gas production and started earning revenues.  Prior to 2006, we were considered a development stage company as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7 (“SFAS 7”).  Effective 2006, we ceased being considered a development stage company.

Our plan of operations is to continue to produce commercial quantities of oil and gas and to drill re-entries to test the oil and gas productive capabilities of our oil and gas properties.  As noted above, we have suspended our efforts indefinitely on the Antelope Pass Project in order to focus on our oil and gas interests.

Corporate Background
 
­We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 23, 1998, initially to explore mining claims and property in New Mexico.

Property Acquisitions

Owl Creek Project

On August 10, 2005, we acquired a 70% working interest in Ranken Energy Corporation’s Owl Creek Project for a total buy-in cost of $211,750 plus dry hole costs (the “Owl Creek Project”).  The Owl Creek Project is located in Oklahoma.  Our working interest in the Owl Creek Project included leasehold interests, two re-entry test wells, geologic expenses, brokerage costs, 3-D seismic usage, geophysical interpretations, and overhead.  

On June 1, 2006, we completed the sale of 20% of the Powell #2 well and future drill sites on the Owl Creek Project.  We received a one-time cash payment of $300,000, with each party responsible for its portion of the cost to complete the Powell #2 well and future drill sites.

Also in June 2006, we acquired a 50% interest in an additional 85 leased acres located at the eastern end of the Owl Creek Prospect, increasing the project’s scope to over 1,200 acres.  We paid $17,000 for the additional acreage.

On August 3, 2006, we completed the sale of 7.5% of the Isbill #1 well and future drill sites on the Owl Creek Project.  We received a one-time cash payment of $100,000.  We retained a 42.5% working interest in the Owl Creek Project, with each party is responsible for its portion of the costs to drill and complete the Isbill #1 well and future drill sites.  We also retained a 70% interest in two spacing unit and the wells containing the Johnson #1 and Powell #1 and a 50% interest in one spacing unit and the well containing the Powell #2.

On March 15, 2007, we expended $403,675 on Isbill #2-36 well in which we held a 42.5% working interest.  On October 19, 2007, we expended $238,784 on Powell #3-25 well, in which we held a 42.5% working interest.

3

On August 29, 2008, we sold our working interests in the Owl Creek Project to an unrelated third party for net proceeds of $3,068,544.

Three Sands Project

On October 6, 2005, we acquired a 40% working interest in Vector Exploration Inc.’s Three Sands Project for a total buy-in cost of $88,000 plus dry hole costs (the “Three Sands Project”).  The Three Sands Project is located in Oklahoma.  For the year ended October 31, 2006, we expended $530,081 in exploration costs.  In June 2007, we acquired a 40% working interest in William #4-10 for a total cost of $285,196 and paid a further $17,000 in costs relating to the well, for total costs as at October 31, 2007 of $920,278.  On March 19, 2008, we participated in the KC 80 #1-11 well and paid $75,000 for the prepaid drilling costs.  During March and April 2008, we expended an additional amount of $48,763 for the intangible and tangible costs, and $161,650 during May to July 2008 for total costs of $285,413 as of October 31, 2008.  Our working interest in the Three Sands Project includes leasehold interests, one re-entry production well, and two drilling wells.  We also participate in drilling operations and related costs, in proportion to our working interest.

Palmetto Point Project

On February 28, 2006, we acquired a 10% working interest before completion and an 8.5% revenue interest after completion, in a 10-well program at the Palmetto Point Project operated by Griffin & Griffin Exploration LLC (“Griffin & Griffin”) for a total buy-in cost of $350,000 (the “Palmetto Point Project”). The Palmetto Point Project is located in Mississippi. On September 26, 2006, we acquired two additional wells (the PP F-6B and PP F52-A wells) within the Palmetto Point Project for $70,000.  On October 1, 2007, we acquired and participated in drilling two more wells within the Palmetto Point Project, the (PP F-12-2 and PP F-12-3 wells), at a cost of $69,862.

On October 1, 2007, we acquired a 10% working interest in the PP F-12-2 and PP F-12-3 wells, located at the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture for $69,862. On October 25, 2007, the Company paid $17,000 for a sidetrack, a deviation of the existing PP-F-12-3 well at an angle to reach additional targeted oil sands.  The well was successfully completed as a flowing oil well.

Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture

On August 2, 2006, we executed a memorandum agreement with Griffin & Griffin, (as operator of the project), Delta Oil and Gas, Inc., Turner Valley Oil and Gas Company, Lexaria Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Lexaria”), and the Stallion Group to participate in two proposed drilling programs located in Southwest Mississippi and Northeast Louisiana, comprised of up to 50 natural gas and/or oil wells, at a price of $400,000 (the “Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture”).  In exchange for our interest, we paid $100,000 as of October 31, 2006 and an additional $200,000 on November 16, 2006.   As a result of weather related delays, the requirement for our final payment of $100,000 was deferred and paid in February 2007.  We hold a 10% working interest in the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture project before production and a prorated reduced working interest after production based on the operator’s interest portion.

On June 21, 2007, we assigned our future development interests and obligations for any new wells on our Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture property to Lexaria for the sum of $1. We believe the assigned interests to be of nominal value.   We have maintained our original interest, rights, title and benefits to all seven wells drilled with our participation at the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture property between August 3, 2006 and June 19, 2007, specifically wells CMR-USA-39-14, Dixon #1, Faust #1 TEC F-1, CMR/BR F-14, RB F-1 Red Bug #2, BR F-33, and Randall #1 F-4, and any offset wells that could be drilled to any of these specified wells.

Antelope Pass Project

In September 2002, we acquired a 100% interest in leases on unpatented lode mining claims in the Antelope Pass Project, located in the Hidalgo County, New Mexico for $811, from Leroy Halterman, who was a non-affiliate of our company at that time.  The Antelope Pass Project consists of the Kendra 1 through Kendra 8 mineral claims.  Unpatented claims are mining claims for which the holder has no patent, or document that conveys

title.   The 2008-2009 Bureau of Land Management maintenance fee has been paid and the claims are valid until September 2009 without any additional expenditure. We have suspended our efforts indefinitely on the Antelope Pass Project.

Exploration and Acquisition Capital Expenditures

During the fiscal years ended October 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, we incurred $291,150, $1,400,943, and $1,930,129, respectively, in identifying and acquiring oil and natural gas interests, and for exploration costs.

Principal Products

We conduct exploration activities to locate oil and natural gas. As we continue our production of these products, we anticipate that generally they will be sold to purchasers in the immediate area where the products are produced. We expect that the principal markets for oil and natural gas will continue to be refineries and transmission companies that have facilities near our producing properties.

Competition

Oil and gas exploration, mineral exploration and acquisition of undeveloped properties are highly competitive and speculative businesses.  We compete with a number of other companies, including major mining and oil and gas companies and other independent operators that are more experienced and which have greater financial resources.  We do not hold a significant competitive position in either the mining industry or the oil and gas industry.

Major Customers

During the fiscal years ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, we collected $953,846 (64%) and $1,396,985 (90%), respectively, of our revenues from Ranken Energy Corporation, the operator of the Owl Creek Project.  Because we have sold all of our working interests in the Owl Creek Project, we will no longer be dependent on Ranken Energy Corporation for a substantial portion of our revenues in fiscal year 2009.  However, we work with only a few operators.  Therefore, we will continue to be dependent on these few operators for a substantial portion of our revenues in fiscal year 2009.

Compliance with Government Regulation

Our oil and gas operations are subject to various levels of government controls and regulations in the United States. Legislation affecting the oil and gas industry has been pervasive and is under constant review for amendment or expansion. Pursuant to such legislation, numerous federal, state and local departments and agencies have issued extensive rules and regulations binding on the oil and gas industry and its individual members, some of which carry substantial penalties for failure to comply. Such laws and regulations have a significant impact on oil and gas drilling, gas processing plants and production activities, increase the cost of doing business and, consequently, affect profitability. Inasmuch as new legislation affecting the oil and gas industry is commonplace and existing laws and regulations are frequently amended or reinterpreted, we are unable to predict the future cost or impact of complying with such laws and regulations.  A breach or violation of such laws and regulations may result in the imposition of fines and penalties.  At present, we do not believe that compliance with environmental legislation and regulations will have a material effect on our operations; however, any changes in environmental legislation or regulations or in our activities may cause compliance with such legislation and/or regulation to have a material impact on our operations.  In addition, certain types of operations require the submission and approval of environmental impact assessments.  Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner that means stricter standards, and enforcement, fines and penalties for non-compliance are becoming more stringent.  Environmental assessments of proposed projects carry a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and directors, officers and employees.  The cost of compliance with changes in governmental regulations has a potential to reduce the profitability of operations.  We intend to ensure that we comply fully with all environmental regulations relating to our operations.

5

With respect to our Oklahoma oil and gas interests, we are required to file Oklahoma Form 1000 and pay $100 to obtain state permits for oil and gas drill sites on private lands.  With respect to our Mississippi oil and gas interests, we are required file Mississippi Form 2 and pay $350 to obtain state permits for oil and gas drill sites on private lands.  Although we do not presently hold any interest in leases on state or federal lands, in the future we may be required to obtain environmental assessments in connection with wildlife impacts or archeological clearances.

With respect to our Antelope Pass Project, we will be required to conduct all mineral exploration activities in accordance with the Bureau of Land Management of the United States Department of the Interior.  If we proceed with our Antelope Pass Project, we will be required to obtain a permit prior to the initiation of exploration.  To obtain a permit we will have to submit plans of operations to both the BLM and the State as part of our permit application.

Employees

Leroy Halterman was appointed as a director and our president, secretary and treasurer on August 9, 2005.  Other than Mr. Halterman, we have no employees.  As of the date of this report, Mr. Halterman receives monthly management fees and a reimbursement for office space of $5,000.  For the fiscal years ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, we incurred $61,800 and $55,800, respectively, for Mr. Halterman’s services and provision of office space.

For the fiscal years ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, we incurred $48,128 and $27,100, respectively, for administrative services performed by Downtown Consulting.  Downtown Consulting is an entity owned and controlled by Sarah Cabianca, the daughter of Kenneth Cabianca and one of our shareholders.  We pay Downtown Consulting a monthly fee of $5,000 for its services.  We anticipate that we will be conducting most of our business through agreements with consultants and third parties.  We have not entered into any arrangements or negotiations with any other consultants or third parties and our sole employee is not covered under a collective bargaining agreement.

Oil and Gas Properties

Owl Creek Project

Location and Access.  The Owl Creek Project is a re-entry of the Morris E. Stewart Johnson #1 and the Plymouth Oil Co. Powell #1 wells located two miles north-northwest of the town of Paoli in McClain County, Oklahoma.  This property can be reached by a paved county road and then by a short gravel road.

Proposed Program of Exploration.  During 2008, we did not participate in any drilling on the project prior to its sale in August 2008.

Cost Estimates Including Previous Work.  Through the date of its sale, we had expended $1,998,853 in connection with the Owl Creek Project, including leasing and title examination.

6

Activities Conducted by Brinx.  In early June 2006, we acquired a 50% interest in an additional 85 leased acres located at the eastern end of the Owl Creek Prospect, increasing the project’s scope to over 1,200 acres.  We paid $17,000 for the additional acreage.  We completed the Powell #1 well on the Owl Creek Prospect in early February 2006.  As of October 31, 2006, the Powell #1 well has produced 1,280 Bbl and 8,227 Mcf of natural gas. The well is currently shut in and may be converted to a saltwater disposal well in the near future. We held a 70% interest in the Powell #1 well.

On June 1, 2006, we sold an undivided 20% of our 70% interest in the Powell #2 well and untested spacing units to Delta Oil and Gas Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Delta”), for a lump sum cash payment of $300,000.  Delta has funded its portion of the completion cost of the Powell #2 as well as costs related to future wells on the project.  As a result of the sale to Delta, our interest was reduced to 50% interest in the Powell #2 well.

Subsequent to the sale to Delta, we completed drilling the Powell #2 well in June 2006.  As of October 31, 2007, the Powell #2 well had produced 62,935 Bbls of oil and 19,189 Mcf of natural gas.  In early April 2007, the Powell #2 well was placed on a submersible pump.

On August 3, 2006, we sold an additional 7.5% interest of our 50% interest in the untested acreage in the Owl Creek Prospect to Lexaria for a lump sum payment of $100,000.  As a result of the sale to Lexaria, our interest in the untested acreage in the Owl Creek Project was reduced to 42.5%.

In late August 2006, we commenced drilling an offset well to the Powell #2 well, the Isbill #1 well. The well reached a total depth of 5,775 feet in mid-September 2006.  After examination of the well logs it was determined that the sands that were producing in the Powell #2 were too thin in the Isbill #1 to produce economic quantities of oil and gas. The Isbill #1 well was plugged and abandoned.  We held a 42.5% interest in the Isbill #1 well.

We commenced drilling of the Isbill #2 well, a direct offset well to the Powell #2, in February 2007. The Isbill #2 well reached a total depth of 5,700 feet in mid-March 2007.  The Isbill #2 well was successfully completed and was placed into production in early April 2007. The Isbill #2 well produced 9,020 Bbls of oil and 2,489 Mcf of natural gas through October 31, 2007. We held a 42.5% interest in the Isbill #2 well.

On August 29, 2008, we sold our working interests in the Owl Creek Project to an unrelated third party for net proceeds of $3,068,544.

Three Sands Project

Location and Access.  The Three Sands Project is an oil and gas exploration project located in Noble County, Oklahoma. The property can be reached by Oklahoma State Highway 77 and then accessed by a secondary gravel and dirt road.

Previous Operations and History.  The Three Sands field was drilled on 10-acre spacing in the 1920s and 1930s and was very active in producing over 200 million Bbls of oil and an unknown amount of gas from a six-section (3,800 acres) area. However, during this period, most wells were abandoned within twenty years as the wells became commercially unviable due to the lack of technology. In particular, during this period, technology was not available, as it is today, to handle high volumes of water and its subsequent disposal, nor was it capable of drilling in areas where the tightness of rock limited flow.

The primary targets of the Three Sands Project are the Arbuckle, Wilcox and Viola Formations. These were the deep pay zones first discovered in the field, and in addition to the oil they produced, large amounts of water were eventually produced forcing the abandonment of the well. Today the water problem has been overcome with down hole electrical high volume pumps and adequate disposal wells, allowing continued exploration.

Geology of the Three Sands Project.  Geologically, this field is a balded structure in which a combination of structure and erosion has aided in producing the field. Pay zones in the project vary from the Arbuckle to the Pennsylvanian and are productive over a 5,000-foot interval that starts at less than 1,000 feet from the surface. In a 2004 drill test, more than two-dozen pay zones were encountered (some of which have not been produced).

7

Proposed Program of Exploration.  Utilizing previously completed 3-D seismic survey data and information gained from the drilling, completion and production of the Williams #4-10, we anticipate drilling an additional two to four wells at the Three Sands Project during fiscal 2008.  These wells will be approximately 5,000 feet deep.

Cost Estimates Including Previous Work.  As of October 31, 2008, we have expended $1,196,600 in connection with the Three Sands Project, including leasing, title, drilling, and casing.

Present Activities.  Drilling of the Kodesh #1 disposal well was completed on October 3, 2005 and drilling of the Kodesh #2 well was completed on October 23, 2005. Completion and equipping of these wells took place during mid-December 2005 through early January 2006.  The Kodesh #2 well is now producing oil and gas on a daily basis and as of October 31, 2008, it has produced 2,998 Bbls of oil and 4,086 Mcf of natural gas. The well is now producing natural gas in very small quantities.

During January 2007, we re-entered the Dye Estate #1 well.  Production of natural gas from the Dye Estate #1 well commenced in mid-August 2007. The Dye Estate #1 well has produced 993 Mcf of natural gas and is currently averaging natural gas production at a rate of 6 Mcf per day. Water from the Dye Estate #1 well is being disposed in the Kodesh #1 disposal well.

We commenced drilling the William #4-10 well in early June 2007, reaching a total depth of 4,810 feet in mid-June 2007.  Electric and radiation logs indicated that the William #4-10 well contained four potential commercial pay zones, the Wilcox Sand, Mississippi Lime, Layton Sand and the Tonkawa Sand.  Completion of the lowest zone, the Wilcox Sand, occurred in mid-August 2007.  Production from the William #4-10 well started in mid-October 2007. During the first quarter of 2008, we perforated, fracture treated and tested the Mississippi Lime and the lower Layton Sand to increase the production rate of both gas and oil from the Williams #4-10 well and provide data regarding the potential of these formations for the remainder of the leases on the Three Sands Project.  As of October 31, 2008, the Williams 4-10 has produced 1,368 barrels oil and 10,136 mcf of gas.

Drilling commenced on the KC 80 #1-11 well at the Three Sands Project in mid-February 2008 and reached total depth of 4,720 feet by the end of February 2008.  The KC 80 #1-11 has been surveyed with radiation and electrical logs.  The primary target for the well is the upper Mississippian Limestone and Chat Formation. The KC-80 well’s logs indicate significant thickness of Chat and upper Mississippi Limestone with good porosity, permeability, and hydrocarbon shows.

Completion of the KC 80 #1-11 well started in late April 2008.  The lowest pay zone, the Mississippian was acidized and partially fracture treated.  In early August a similar treatment was given to the Chat zone or the horizon that lies above the lowest pay zone. As of October 31, 2008, the KC 80 #1-11 well is producing at a rate of 12 Bbls of oil and 46 MCF of natural gas daily.  As of October 31, 2008, the KC 80-1-11 has produced 2,196 barrels of oil and 7,581 MCF of natural gas.

Palmetto Point Project

Location and Access. The Palmetto Point Project is located on the border of southern Mississippi and Louisiana along the floodplain of the Mississippi river. The area is approximately 20 miles west of Woodville, Mississippi and approximately 50 miles northwest of Baton Rouge, Louisiana.  The wells are located in Township 2 North, Ranges 4 & 5, in West Adams and Wilkinson Counties in the state of Mississippi. The area may be accessed via Interstate 55 (approximately 100 miles south of Jackson, Mississippi) and then west via state highways.  The drill locations are accessed by secondary gravel and dirt roads. Transporting natural gas to the market will be accomplished via a series of pipelines which cross the project area.

Griffin & Griffin, the operator for the Palmetto Point Project, has over 40 years of operations history in the Palmetto Point Project area and has acquired substantial data and 3-D seismic for the Palmetto Point Project.  To date, Griffin & Griffin has drilled, owned or operated more than 100 Frio wells in the region. More specifically, Griffin & Griffin has drilled to a subsurface depth and has penetrated the sands of the Frio Formation on the Palmetto Point Project.

Geology of the Palmetto Point Project. The prospect wells were located to test the Frio Geological Formation. Frio wells typically enjoy low finding costs. Griffin & Griffin has utilized seismic “bright spot” technology, which that helps to identify gas reservoirs and to delineate reservoir geometry and limits. The term “bright spot” is used to describe a geophysical amplitude anomaly, which is simply a velocity change from a higher velocity to lower velocity.  Sands that contain gas are predictable by this method because the gas will provide a slower velocity response giving an abnormally intense trough-peak reflections, therefore termed a “bright spot”. The data evaluation in the Frio section gives a direct hydrocarbon indication (“HCI”) allowing one to not only see gas seismically, but also the lateral extent of each gas reservoir at various depths to include multiple horizons at some locations.
 
The gas targets at the Palmetto Point Project occur at shallow depths and have minimal completion costs. The Frio in the area of Southwest Mississippi and North-Central Louisiana is a very complex series of sand representing marine transgressions and regressions and resulting in the presence of varying depositional environments. Structurally, the Frio gas accumulations are a function of local structure and/or structural nose formed as a result of differential compaction features. However, stratigraphic termination (updip pinchout of sands within shales) also plays a role in most Frio accumulations. The stratigraphy is so complex that seismic direct HCI evaluations are presently the only viable exploratory tool for the Frio prospect.

Proposed Program of Exploration.  The Palmetto Point Project program has been completed and no further exploration wells are planned.  We are assessing additional development wells in the Belmont Lake oil field discovered by the PP F-12 well.  The Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture program described below is the successor to the Palmetto Point Program and will continue our exploration and development in the Frio and Wilcox.

Cost Estimates Including Previous Work.  As of October 31, 2008, we have expended $553,568 in connection with the Palmetto Point Project, including leasing, title, drilling, and casing.

Present Activities.  As of October 31, 2007, Griffin & Griffin, operator of the Palmetto Point Project, drilled all ten of the wells in the Palmetto Point Project.  Eight of the wells were successful and two were dry holes which were not completed.  Seven of the eight successful wells were completed and are currently producing.  One of the eight wells, the PP F-12, was completed as a flowing oil well in early October 2007.  The PP F-12 well flowed oil at rates of over 100 bbls per day and in December 2007 was offset by two additional wells in the project, the PP F-12-2 and PP F-12-3.  The PP F-12-2 was a dry hole and the PP F-3 was completed as a flowing oil well.

Both the PP F-12 PP F-3 oil well locations and several of our gas well locations have been flooded at the Palmetto Point Project.  Prior to the flooding, we had partly completed work to install gas lift pumps at each well; however, the work could not be completed before the locations were flooded.  There has been virtually no damage to our surface equipment located at the well heads, as our batteries and other production facilities are located above the flood waters.  Thus far, the only damage has been to our recent lost production because the well had to be shut-in.  We do not believe that the flooding will adversely affect future oil recovery from these wells.

In early September 2008, flood waters had receded sufficiently and work began on placing the PP F-12 and PP F12-3 back on line and producing oil.  Gas lift pumps were installed on both wells and other modification and additional equipment such as compressors were also installed.  At the end of October 2008, both wells were producing oil at combined rates of between 150 and 200 barrels of oil per day.

During the three-month period ended October 31, 2008, 2,837 Bbls of oil and 16,999 MCF of natural gas were produced at the Palmetto Point Project.  All of the oil was produced in October 2008.

Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture

Location and Access. The Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture is located on the border of southern Mississippi and Louisiana along the floodplain of the Mississippi river. The area is approximately 20 miles west of Woodville, Mississippi and approximately 50 miles northwest of Baton Rouge, Louisiana.  The wells are located in Township 2 North, Ranges 4 & 5, in West Adams and Wilkinson Counties in the state of Mississippi. The area is accessible via Interstate 55 (approximately 100 miles south of Jackson, Mississippi) and then west via state

highways.  The drill locations are accessed by secondary gravel and dirt roads. Transporting natural gas to the market will be accomplished via a series of pipelines which cross the project area.

Previous Operations and History.  As described above, we participated in the ten-well Palmetto Point Project program in the same area as the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture. The Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture is the successor to the Palmetto Point Project. Griffin & Griffin, the operator for the Palmetto Point Project, is also the operator for the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture.  Griffin & Griffin has over 40 years of operations history in the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture area and has acquired substantial data and 3-D seismic for the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture.  To date, Griffin & Griffin has drilled, owned or operated more than 100 Frio wells in the region.

Geology of the Palmetto Point Project. The prospect wells are located to test the Frio Geological Formation. The gas targets at the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture occur at shallow depths and have minimal completion costs. The Frio in the area of Southwest Mississippi and North-Central Louisiana is a very complex series of sand representing marine transgressions and regressions and resulting in the presence of varying depositional environments.

However, stratigraphic termination (updip pinchout of sands within shales) also plays a role in most Frio accumulations. The stratigraphy is so complex that seismic HCI evaluations are the only viable exploratory tool for the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture.

Proposed Program of Exploration. On June 21, 2007, we assigned our interests and all future development obligations for any new wells in the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture to Lexaria for the sum of $1. We believe the assigned interest to be of nominal value.   We have maintained our original interest, rights, title and benefits to all seven wells drilled with our participation at the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture between August 3, 2006 and June 19, 2007, specifically wells CMR-USA-39-14, Dixon #1, Faust #1 TEC F-1, CMR/BR F-14, RB F-1 Red Bug #2, BR F-33, and Randall #1 F-4, and any offset wells that could be drilled to any of these specified wells.

Cost Estimates Including Previous Work.  As of October 31, 2008, we have expended $400,000 in connection with the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture, including leasing, title, drilling, and casing.

Present Activities.  Nine wells were drilled on the Mississippi Frio-Wilcox Joint Venture, of which, five wells were initially deemed successful and four wells were dry holes and were not completed.  One of the five wells initially deemed to be successful was the BR F-24.  However, subsequent testing of the BR F-24 indicated that it was not commercially viable and the well was plugged and abandoned in 2007.  The four remaining successful wells were the Faust #1, USA 39-14, USA 1-37 and the BR F-33.  The USA 39-14 has been completed and is now producing natural gas.  During the three-month period ended October 31, 2008, 32,662 MCF of natural gas were produced at the Mississippi Joint Venture Project.  All of the oil was produced in October 2008.

Productive Wells

The following table summarizes information at October 31, 2008, relating to the productive wells in which we owned a working interest as of that date. Productive wells consist of producing wells and wells capable of production, but specifically exclude wells drilled and cased during the fiscal year that have yet to be tested for completion (e.g., all of the operated wells drilled by the Company during this year have been cased in preparation for completion, but no operations have been initiated that would allow these wells to be productive). Gross wells are the total number of producing wells in which we have an interest, and net wells are the sum of our fractional working interests in the gross wells.

Unaudited Oil and Gas Reserve Quantities

The following unaudited reserve estimates for Oklahoma, presented as of October 31, 2008, were prepared by J L. Thomas Engineering, an independent petroleum engineering firm. The unaudited reserve estimates for Mississippi and Louisiana, as of October 31, 2008, were prepared by Veazey & Associates, an independent petroleum engineering firm.

The combined estimated proved reserves prepared by J L. Thomas Engineering and Veazey and Associates are summarized in the table below, in accordance with definitions and pricing requirements as prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  Prices paid for oil and natural gas vary widely depending upon the quality such as the Btu content of the natural gas, gravity of the oil, sulfur content and location of the production related to the refinery or pipelines.

There are many uncertainties inherent in estimating proved reserve quantities and in projecting future production rates and the timing of development expenditures.  In addition, reserve estimates of new discoveries that have little production history are more imprecise than those of properties with more production history.  Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.

Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil and natural gas which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions.

Proved developed oil and gas reserves are those reserves expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods.

Oil and Gas Acreage

The following table sets forth the undeveloped and developed acreage, by area, held by us as of October 31, 2008.  Undeveloped acres are acres on which wells have not been drilled or completed to a point that would permit the production of commercial quantities of oil and gas, regardless of whether or not such acreage contains proved reserves.  Developed acres are acres, which are spaced or assignable to productive wells.  Gross acres are the total number of acres in which we have a working interest.  Net acreage is obtained by multiplying gross acreage by our working interest percentage in the properties.  The table does not include acreage in which we have a contractual right to acquire or to earn through drilling projects, or any other acreage for which we have not yet received leasehold assignments. It should be noted that the acreage in the Owl Creek prospect was disposed of in August 2008.

Mineral Property

Antelope Pass Project

We suspended activities on the Antelope Pass Project indefinitely in order to focus on our oil and gas properties in 2005.  We did not conduct any operations or exploration activities on the Antelope Pass Project during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2007 or 2006.  To date, we have expended $8,207 in connection with the Antelope Pass Project, including geological mapping, sampling and assaying.

Location and Access.  The Antelope Pass Project is located in west central Hidalgo County, New Mexico, approximately ten miles east of the New Mexico-Arizona border.  The Antelope Pass Project lies in the Peloncillo Mountains, 35 miles southwest of Lordsburg, New Mexico.  The closest major air service to the property is located in Tucson, Arizona.  Access to the property is from Tucson traveling east via Interstate Highway 10 for approximately 130 miles to the Animas, New Mexico exit.  From that exit, travel is south 20 miles on State Highway 338 to the town of Animas and then west for seven miles via State Highway 9.  The property can be reached on gravel roads and dirt tracks.

The property is comprised of low hills and alluvial valleys, with elevations ranging from a low of 4,480 feet to a high of 4,580 feet.  Vegetation is sparse and includes desert grasses, cacti, and creosote bushes. The Antelope Pass Project consists of eight unpatented lode mining claims totaling 160 acres, situated in Township 27 South, Range 20 West, Sections 18 and 19 and Township 27 South, Range 21 West, Sections 13 and 24.  A lode is a mineral deposit in consolidated rock as opposed to a placer deposit, which is a deposit of sand or gravel that contains particles of gold, ilmenite, gemstones, or other heavy minerals of value.

The claims are located on federal lands under the administration of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM).  They are not subject to any royalties, but annual maintenance fees must be paid to the BLM of $125 per claim or a total of $1,000 for the entire claim block to keep them valid.  Including federal and county filing fees, an expenditure of approximately $125 per claim for total payment of $1,000 per year for the entire claim block is required to keep the claims valid.

Under the General Mining Law of 1872, which governs our mining claims and leases, we, as the holder of the claim, have the right to develop the minerals located in the land identified in the claim.  We must pay an annual maintenance fee of $125 per claim to hold the claim.  Claims can be held indefinitely with or without mineral production, subject to challenge if not developed.  Using land under an unpatented mining claim for anything but mineral and associated purposes violates the General Mining Law of 1872.

ITEM 7.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Our original business plan was to proceed with the exploration of the Antelope Pass Project to determine whether there were commercially exploitable reserves of gold located on the property comprising the mineral claims.  Based on the geological report and recommendation prepared by Leroy Halterman, who was our geological consultant at that time, we completed geological mapping, sampling and assaying in connection with the first phase of a staged exploration program during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004.  In 2005, we suspended our activities on the Antelope Pass Project indefinitely in order to focus on our oil and gas properties and we did not conduct any operations or exploration activities on the Antelope Pass Project during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2008, 2007 or 2006.  At the time of this report, we do not know when or if we will proceed with the Antelope Pass Project.

Our present plan of operation is to continue our exploration and production activities on our oil and gas properties.  We anticipate that we will incur the following expenses over the next twelve months in connection with our oil and gas properties: 

§  
$520,000 to $1,040,000 in connection with our oil and gas properties to include drilling, completing and equipping new wells and for costs associated with production;
 
 
15

 
§  
$400,000 for operating expenses, including professional legal and accounting expenses associated with our being a reporting issuer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Accordingly, we anticipate spending approximately $920,000 to $1,440,000 over the next twelve months in pursuing our stated plan of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Oil and Gas Interests. We utilize the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas activities.  Under this method, subject to a limitation based on estimated value, all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration and development, including costs of unsuccessful exploration, are capitalized within a cost center.  No gain or loss is recognized upon the sale or abandonment of undeveloped or producing oil and gas interests unless the sale represents a significant portion of oil and gas interests and the gain significantly alters the relationship between capitalized costs and proved oil and gas reserves of the cost center.  Depreciation, depletion and amortization of oil and gas interests is computed on the units of production method based on proved reserves, or upon reasonable estimates where proved reserves have not yet been established due to the recent commencement of production.  Amortizable costs include estimates of future development costs of proved undeveloped reserves.

Capitalized costs of oil and gas interests may not exceed an amount equal to the present value, discounted at 10%, of the estimated future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves plus the cost, or estimated fair market value, if lower, of unproved interests.  Should capitalized costs exceed this ceiling, an impairment is recognized.  The present value of estimated future net cash flows is computed by applying year end prices of oil and gas to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of year end, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions.

Accounts Receivable.  Accounts receivable are carried at net receivable amounts less an estimate for doubtful accounts.  We determine the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history, and current economic conditions.   Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

Asset Retirement Obligations. We follow SFAS 143 “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”.  SFAS 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.  SFAS 143 requires recognition of the present value of obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets in the period in which it is incurred.  As of October 31, 2008 and 2007, we recognized the future cost to plug and abandon the gas wells over the estimated useful lives of the wells in accordance with SFAS No.143.  The liability for the fair value of an asset retirement obligation with a corresponding increase in the carrying value of the related long-lived asset is recorded at the time a well is completed and ready for production.  We amortize the amount added to the oil and gas properties and recognize accretion expense in connection with the discounted liability over the remaining life of the respective wells. The estimated liability is based on historical experience in plugging and abandoning wells, estimated useful lives based on engineering studies, external estimates as to the cost to plug and abandon wells in the future and federal and state regulatory requirements. The liability is a discounted liability using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate of 12%.  Revisions to the liability could occur due to changes in plugging and abandonment costs, well useful lives or if federal or state regulators enact new guidance on the plugging and abandonment of wells.

The information below reflects the change in the asset retirement obligations during the years ended October 31, 2008 and 2007:

The reclamation obligation relates to the Kodesh, Dye Estate, KC 80 and William wells at the Three Sands Property; the Palmetto Point Project and CMR-USA 39-14 well at the Frio-Wilcox Project.  The present value of the reclamation liability may be subject to change based on management’s current estimates, changes in remediation technology or changes to the applicable laws and regulations.  Such changes will be recorded in our accounts as they occur.

Reserve Estimates.  Our estimates of oil and natural gas reserves are projections based on an interpretation of geological and engineering data.  There are uncertainties inherent in the interpretation of such data as well as the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures.  Estimates of the economically   recoverable quantities of oil and natural gas attributable to any particular group of properties, classifications of such reserves based on the risk of recovery, and estimates of the future net cash flows expected therefrom may vary substantially.  Actual production, revenues and expenditures with respect to our reserves will likely vary from estimates, and such variances may be material.

Share Based Compensation. In December 2004, SFAS 123R "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" was issued.  This standard defines a fair value based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument. This statement requires entities to recognize related compensation expense to employees by adopting the fair value method.

Results of Operations

We realized revenues of $1,497,908 from natural gas and oil sales during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008, compared with $1,552,921 during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007, a slight decrease of $55,013 due to decreased oil production, despite increased prices for both natural gas and oil. We cannot provide any assurance that we will continue to produce commercially exploitable levels of oil and gas resources on our properties, or if additional resources are discovered, that we will enter into commercial production of such oil and gas properties.

We also generated revenues of $1,982,293 from the gain on the sale of our Owl Creek Project working interests in fiscal 2008, resulting in total revenues of $3,480,201.

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008, our net income was $1,563,808, compared with net income of $65,705 for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007 (an increase in net income of $1,498,103).  The increase of our net income was due to the gain on the sale of our Owl Creek Project working interests.

We incurred direct costs of $998,467 for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008, compared with $1,485,235 for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007, a decrease of $486,768.  The decrease in our direct costs was largely attributable to a decrease in our depletion and accretion costs; we had depletion and accretion costs of $291,585 during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008, compared with $972,661 during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007, a decrease of $681,076.  Depletion is calculated based on production rates produced during the year.  Our depletion and accretion costs decreased as a result of a decrease in our oil and gas producing wells.  The decrease in our depletion and accretion costs was partly offset by an increase of $103,383 in our production costs.  

Our general and administrative costs increased to $440,191 for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008, from $349,266 for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007.  The increase in our general and administrative costs were attributable to an increase in costs associated with professional legal and accounting services necessary as a reporting issuer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, increases in management fees and costs of administration services, and stock based compensation of $26,077.

Our retained earnings through October 31, 2008 was $1,080,198.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Recent Accounting Pronouncements.

The FASB has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 163, Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts.  SFAS No. 163 clarifies how SFAS No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises, applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts issued by insurance enterprises, and addresses the recognition and measurement of premium revenue and claim liabilities.  It requires expanded disclosures about contracts, and recognition of claim liability prior to an event of default when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation.  It also requires disclosure about (a) the risk-management activities used by an insurance enterprise to evaluate credit deterioration in its insured financial obligations, and (b) the insurance enterprise’s surveillance or watch list.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 163.

In May 8, 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 162, the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which will provide framework for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for nongovernmental entities.  With the issuance of SFAS No. 162, the GAAP hierarchy for nongovernmental entities will move from auditing literature to accounting literature.  The Company is currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 162 on its financial position and results of operations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 161”), which is effective January 1, 2009.  SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities to allow for a better understanding of their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.  Among other things, SFAS 161 requires disclosures of the fair values of derivative instruments and associated gains and losses in a tabular formant.  SFAS 161 is not currently applicable to the Company since the Company does not have derivative instruments or hedging activity.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations. This Statement provides greater consistency in the accounting and financial reporting of business combinations. It requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction, establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and requires the acquirer to disclose the nature and financial effect of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We will adopt SFAS No. 141(R) no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and are currently assessing the impact the adoption will have on its financial position and results of operations.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. This Statement amends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We will adopt SFAS No. 160 no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and are currently assessing the impact the adoption will have on its financial position and results of operations.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which permits entities to choose to measure at fair value eligible financial instruments and
 
 
18

 
certain other items that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The standard requires that unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We will adopt SFAS No. 159 no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2009.  We are currently assessing the impact the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have on its financial position and results of operations.

ITEM 9.
CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

On April 21, 2008, we dismissed Gordon, Hughes & Banks, LLP (“GHB”) as our independent registered public accounting firm.  Also on April 21, 2008, we engaged Chisholm, Bierwolf & Nilson, LLC (“Chisholm”) to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year ending October 31, 2008.  Our board of directors approved both actions.

The reports of GHB on our consolidated financial statements for the two most recent fiscal years ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that the audit reports for both years contained an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

In connection with the audit of our financial statements for fiscal year ended October 31, 2007, GHB advised us that based on several corrections to our financial statements and related disclosures proposed by GHB, there was a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting.  Additionally, although we are not required to segregate the principal executive officer and principal financial officer functions and are not required to have an audit committee, GHB considered the fact that our sole officer serves in both of these functions and that we do not have an audit committee as dispositive in providing its advice to us.  As a result of this material weakness in our internal controls, our sole officer concluded further that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

During the fiscal years ended October 31, 2007 and 2006 and through the subsequent interim period ending April 21, 2008, there were no disagreements with GHB on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of GHB, would have caused GHB to make reference thereto in its report on our financial statements for such years.  Further, except as described above, there were no reportable events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K occurring within our two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period ending April 21, 2008.

We requested GHB to furnish us a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agreed with the above statements. A copy of that letter, dated April 25, 2008, was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to a current report on Form 8-K.

During our fiscal years ended October 31, 2007 and 2006 and through April 21, 2008, the period prior to the engagement of Chisholm, neither we nor anyone on our behalf consulted Chisholm regarding the application of
 
 
19

 
accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the registrant’s financial statements.  Further, Chisholm has not provided written or oral advice to us that was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues.


ITEM 9A.             CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 
Evaluation Of Disclosure Controls And Procedures
 
Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our sole officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, requires us to carry out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of October 31, 2008, being the date of our most recently completed fiscal year end.  This evaluation was implemented under the supervision and with the participation of our sole officer, Leroy Halterman.

In conducting his evaluation, our sole officer considered advice from our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, Chisholm, Bierwolf & Nilson, LLC (“Chisholm”) that based on several corrections to our financial statements and related disclosures proposed by Chisholm, there is a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting.  Additionally, although we are not required to segregate the principal executive officer and principal financial officer functions and we are not required to have an audit committee, Chisholm considered the fact that our sole officer serves in both of these functions and that we do not have an audit committee as dispositive in providing its advice to our sole officer.  As a result of this material weakness in our internal controls, our sole officer concluded further that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Our sole officer also considered various mitigating factors in making his determination.  There were no changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect our internal controls subsequent to the date of evaluation.  Further, our sole officer also noted that we are still evaluating and implementing changes in our internal controls in response to the requirements of Sarbanes Oxley §404.  During fiscal 2009, we will continue to implement appropriate changes as they are identified, including changes to remediate material weaknesses in our internal controls.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
 
Changes In Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
 
In connection with the evaluation of our internal controls during our last fiscal quarter, our sole officer has concluded that there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART III

ITEM 10.
DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE.

Information about our sole executive officer and directors follows:

Name
Age
Position and Term of Office
Leroy Halterman
63
Director, president, secretary and treasurer
Kenneth A. Cabianca
68
Director
 
Our Bylaws provide for a board of directors ranging from 1 to 12 members, with the exact number to be specified by the board.  All directors hold office until the next annual meeting of the stockholders following their election and until their successors have been elected and qualified.  The board of directors appoints officers.  Officers hold office until the next annual meeting of our board of directors following their appointment and until their successors have been appointed and qualified.

Set forth below is a brief description of the recent employment and business experience of our directors and sole executive officer:
 
Leroy Halterman was appointed as a director and as our sole officer on August 9, 2005. Mr. Halterman has 40 years of geology experience. From 1999 to 2004, Mr. Halterman served as vice president of Tecumseh Professional Associates, a private environmental, facility management, government consultant and natural resource firm based in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  During this period he directed the company’s oil, gas and natural resource consulting and investments.  Mr. Halterman served as principal in charge of maintenance and security for two U.S. Army Ammunition Plants. Additionally, he directed Tecumseh’s efforts in over thirty mineral project appraisals and evaluations.  Since 2004, Mr. Halterman has been working as a consultant in the fields of oil and gas, precious and base metals, and aggregated resources. Since 1993, Mr. Halterman has been president and a director of Consolidated North American Resources, a private natural resource investment firm located in Las Vegas, Nevada.  Mr. Halterman is a graduate of the Missouri School of Mines with a BS degree in Geology.  He is registered as a geologist in Wyoming.  During the past five years, Mr. Halterman has not served as an officer or director of any company, other than as described in this paragraph.

Kenneth A. Cabianca was our sole officer and director from our inception in December 1998 until August 9, 2005.  On August 9, 2005, Mr. Cabianca resigned as our president but he remains a director.  Since 1983, Mr. Cabianca has been an independent businessman and a management consultant of various companies.  Many of his activities have been conducted through his company, Wellington Financial Corporation.  His experience includes raising venture capital, general management, and public relations.  From August 1991 to September 1999, Mr. Cabianca was a director and president of Primo Resources International Inc., a mining company whose stock trades on the CDNX.  While he served as president Primo Resources engaged in joint ventures projects with Mitsubishi Corp., Mitsubishi Materials Corp., and Golden Peaks Resources Ltd.  He served as a director of Primo Resources International again from October 2001 to November 2002.  Mr. Cabianca received a D.D.S. degree and practiced dentistry in Vancouver, British Columbia from 1965 to 1986.  He also received a Bachelor of Science degree from Creighton University in 1965.  During the past five years, Mr. Cabianca has not served as an officer or director of any company, other than as described in this paragraph.

Conflicts of Interest

Mr. Cabianca and Mr. Halterman are associated with other firms involved in a range of business activities.  Consequently, there are potential inherent conflicts of interest in their acting as officers and/or directors of our company.  Insofar as they are engaged in other business activities, we anticipate that they will not devote all of their time to our affairs.

21

Our officers and directors are now and may in the future become shareholders, officers or directors of other companies, which may be formed for the purpose of engaging in business activities similar to us.  Accordingly, additional direct conflicts of interest may arise in the future with respect to such individuals acting on behalf of us or other entities.  Moreover, additional conflicts of interest may arise with respect to opportunities which come to the attention of such individuals in the performance of their duties or otherwise.  Currently, we do not have a right of first refusal pertaining to opportunities that come to their attention and may relate to our business operations.
 
Our officers and directors are, so long as they are our officers or directors, subject to the restriction that all opportunities contemplated by our plan of operation which come to their attention, either in the performance of their duties or in any other manner, will be considered opportunities of, and be made available to us and the companies that they are affiliated with on an equal basis.  A breach of this requirement will be a breach of the fiduciary duties of the officer or director.  If we or the companies with which the officers and directors are affiliated both desire to take advantage of an opportunity, then said officers and directors would abstain from negotiating and voting upon the opportunity.  However, all directors may still individually take advantage of opportunities if we should decline to do so.  Except as set forth above, we have not adopted any other conflict of interest policy with respect to such transactions.

We do not have any audit, compensation, and executive committees of our board of directors.  We do not have an audit committee financial expert.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

We are not subject to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Code of Ethics
 
We have not yet adopted a code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officers, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, due to our relatively low level of activity to date.  At a later time, the board of directors may adopt such a code of ethics.


ITEM 11.               EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Our board of directors is responsible for developing the executive compensation principles, policies and programs for our executive officers and is also responsible for determining the compensation to be paid to our executive officers.

The objectives of our compensation programs are to provide fair market value cash compensation and an incentive scheme related to the growth of the company to our key employees, including, but not limited to, our executive officers.  Our compensation program has two components:  salary and stock options.

We design our salary component to pay our key employees a base salary as close to the market rate as possible so that we can be competitive in the labor market.  However, the size of our company is also taken into consideration in determining appropriate salary levels.

We have granted stock options to align the interests of our key employees to the growth of our company.  Stock option grants are determined on an individual basis with our directors making the decision in each case, based on what they believe the particular employee will bring to the company.

Mr. Halterman is the company’s president and geologist.  He is a degreed geologist and is certified and registered professional geologist.  He reviews oil and gas and other natural resource prospects for the company and makes the decision as to whether the company should invest in them.  He reviews all electric, radiation, and other logs when a well reaches total depth and makes the decision if the company should participate in the completion of
 
 
22

 
the well.  He reviews monthly oil and gas production numbers and joint interest billing statements as to accuracy.  He also carries on investor relations and participates in the preparations of quarterly and annual reports.

The following table sets forth information about the remuneration of our principal executive officer and director for services rendered during the years ended October 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006.  We do not have any executive officers with total compensation of $100,000 or more.  Certain columns as required by the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission have been omitted as no information was required to be disclosed under those columns.

Future Transactions

All future affiliated transactions will be made or entered into on terms that are no less favorable to us than those that can be obtained from any unaffiliated third party.

Director Independence

Our common stock trades on the OTC Bulletin Board.  As such, we are not currently subject to corporate governance standards of listed companies, which require, among other things, that the majority of the board of directors be independent.

Since we are not currently subject to corporate governance standards relating to the independence of our directors, we choose to define an “independent” director in accordance with the NASDAQ Global Market’s requirements for independent directors (NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4200).  The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not an employee of the company and has not engaged in various types of business dealings with the company.  We do not currently have an independent director under the above definition.  We do not list that definition on our Internet website.

We presently do not have an audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, executive committee of our Board of Directors, stock plan committee or any other committees.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors
Brinx Resources Ltd.
Albuquerque, New Mexico

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Brinx Resources Ltd. (the “company”) as of October 31, 2008 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended. 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. The financial statements of Brinx Resources, Ltd. as of October 31, 2007, were audited by other auditors whose report dated January 27, 2008, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal controls over financial reporting. Our audit included 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. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides 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 Brinx Resources Ltd. as of October 31, 2008 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Brinx Resources Ltd.
Albuquerque, New Mexico

We have audited the balance sheet of Brinx Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) as of October 31, 2007 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. 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 audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included 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. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that out audit provides 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 Brinx Resources Ltd. as of October 31, 2007, and the results of their operations and cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The financial statements referenced above have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 of the financial statements included with Form 10-KSB filed for the year ended October 31, 2007, the Company has incurred losses since inception and has recently commenced principal operations.  These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in regards to these matters are described in Note 2 as referenced above.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Brinx Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 23, 1998, and issued its initial common stock in February 2001.  The Company holds undeveloped mineral interest located in New Mexico and holds oil and gas interests located in Oklahoma, Mississippi and Louisiana.  In 2006, the Company commenced oil and gas production and started earning revenues.  Prior to 2006, the Company was considered a development stage company as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 7.  Effective 2006, the Company ceased being considered a development stage company.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statement in conformity with 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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The oil and gas industry is subject, by its nature, to environmental hazards and clean-up costs.  At this time, management knows of no substantial costs from environmental accidents or events for which the Company may be currently liable.  In addition, the Company’s oil and gas business makes it vulnerable to changes in prices of crude oil and natural gas.  Such prices have been volatile in the past and can be expected to be volatile in the future.  By definition, proved reserves are based on current oil and gas prices and estimated reserves.  Price declines reduce the estimated quantity of proved reserves and increase annual depletion expense (which is based on proved reserves).

OIL AND GAS INTERESTS

The Company utilizes the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas activities.  Under this method, subject to a limitation based on estimated value, all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration and development, including costs of unsuccessful exploration, are capitalized within a cost center.  No gain or loss is recognized upon the sale or abandonment of undeveloped or producing oil and gas interests unless the sale represents a significant portion of oil and gas interests and the gain significantly alters the relationship between capitalized costs and proved oil and gas reserves of the cost center.  Depreciation, depletion and amortization of oil and gas interests is computed on the units of production method based on proved reserves, or upon reasonable estimates where proved reserves have not yet been established due to the recent commencement of production.  Amortizable costs include estimates of future development costs of proved undeveloped reserves.

BRINX RESOURCES LTD.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)

OIL AND GAS INTERESTS (continued)

Capitalized costs of oil and gas interests may not exceed an amount equal to the present value, discounted at 10%, of the estimated future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves plus the cost, or estimated fair market value, if lower, of unproved interests.  Should capitalized costs exceed this ceiling, impairment is recognized.  The present value of estimated future net cash flows is computed by applying year end prices of oil and gas to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of year end, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from sales of crude oil, natural gas and refined petroleum products are recorded when deliveries have occurred and legal ownership of the commodity transfers to the customers.  Title transfers for crude oil, natural gas and bulk refined products generally occur at pipeline custody points or when a tanker lifting has occurred.  Revenues from the production of oil and natural gas properties in which the Company shares an undivided interest with other producers are recognized based on the actual volumes sold by the Company during the period.  Gas imbalances occur when the Company’s actual sales differ from its entitlement under existing working interests.  The Company records a liability for gas imbalances when it has sold more than its working interest of gas production and the estimated remaining reserves make it doubtful that the partners can recoup their share of production from the field. At October 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had no overproduced imbalances.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable are carried at net receivable amounts less an estimate for doubtful accounts.  Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history, and current economic conditions.  Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible.  Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company has adopted SFAS 144,  "Accounting  for the  Impairment  or Disposal of Long-Lived  Assets," which requires that long-lived  assets to be held and used be  reviewed  for  impairment  whenever  events  or changes in circumstances  indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Oil and gas interests accounted for under the full cost method are subject to a ceiling test, described above, and are excluded from this requirement.

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

The Company follows SFAS 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations".  SFAS 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.

SFAS 143 requires recognition of the present value of obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets in the period in which it is incurred.  The  liability  is capitalized  as  part  of  the  related long-lived  asset's  carrying  amount.

Over time, accretion of the liability is recognized as an operating expense and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the expected useful life of the related asset.  The Company's asset retirement obligations are related to the plugging, dismantlement, removal, site reclamation and similar activities of its oil and gas exploration activities.

INCOME / (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic income/ (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period.  The computation of diluted earnings per share assumes the conversion, exercise or contingent issuance of securities only when such conversion, exercise or issuance would have the dilutive effect on income/(loss) per share.  The dilutive effect of convertible securities is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the "as if converted method." The dilutive effect of outstanding options and warrants and their equivalents is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method.  The table below presents the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the year ended October 31, 2008:

ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)

The calculation for earnings per share excluded 200,000 stock options as these were not in the money as at October 31, 2008 and October 31, 2007.

INCOME TAXES

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of the firm’s assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that more likely than not will be realized. The firm’s tax assets and liabilities are presented as a component of “Other assets” and “Other liabilities and accrued expenses,” respectively, in the consolidated statements of financial condition. Tax provisions are computed in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”
 
The firm adopted the provisions of FIN 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109,” as of December 1, 2007. A tax position can be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by the relevant taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. A position that meets this standard is measured at the largest amount of benefit that will more likely than not be realized upon settlement. A liability is established for differences between positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interim period accounting and accounting for interest and penalties. Prior to the adoption of FIN 48, contingent liabilities related to income taxes were recorded when the criteria for loss recognition under SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies,” as amended, had been met.

CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers as cash equivalents all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase.  On occasion, the Company may have cash balances in excess of federally insured amounts.

FAIR VALUE

The carrying amount reported in the accompanying balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.  The Company maintains cash at one financial institution.  The Company periodically evaluates the credit worthiness of financial institutions, and maintains cash accounts only in large high quality financial institutions, thereby minimizing exposure for deposits in excess of federally insured amounts.  The Company believes credit risk associated with cash and cash equivalents to be minimal.  Deposits are insured up to $250,000, the amount that may be subject to credit risk for the year ended October 31, 2008 is $3,367,109.

The Company has recorded trade accounts receivable from the business operations. Management periodically evaluates the collectability of the trade receivables and believes that the Company’s receivables are fully collectable and that the risk of loss is minimal.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

There are no adjustments necessary to net (loss) as presented in the accompanying statements of operations to derive comprehensive income in accordance with SFAS 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income."

EQUITY BASED COMPENSATION

Effective November 1 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R), “Share Based Payment”, using the modified prospective method as described in SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure”.

The fair value of each option granted has been estimated as of the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The FASB has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 163, Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts.  SFAS No. 163 clarifies how SFAS No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises, applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts issued by insurance enterprises, and addresses the recognition and measurement of premium revenue and claim liabilities.  It requires expanded disclosures about contracts, and recognition of claim liability prior to an event of default when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation.  It also requires disclosure about (a) the risk-management activities used by an insurance enterprise to evaluate credit deterioration in its insured financial obligations, and (b) the insurance enterprise’s surveillance or watch list.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 163.

In May 8, 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 162, the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which will provide framework for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for nongovernmental entities.  With the issuance of SFAS No. 162, the GAAP hierarchy for nongovernmental entities will move from auditing literature to accounting literature.  The Company is currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 162 on its financial position and results of operations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 161”), which is effective January 1, 2009.  SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities to allow for a better understanding of their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.  Among other things, SFAS 161 requires disclosures of the fair values of derivative instruments and associated gains and losses in a tabular formant.  SFAS 161 is not currently applicable to the Company since the Company does not have derivative instruments or hedging activity.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations”. This Statement provides greater consistency in the accounting and financial reporting of business combinations. It requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction, establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and requires the acquirer to disclose the nature and financial effect of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We will adopt SFAS No. 141(R) no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and are currently assessing the impact the adoption will have on its financial position and results of operations.

ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”. This Statement amends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We will adopt SFAS No. 160 no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and are currently assessing the impact the adoption will have on its financial position and results of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”, which permits entities to choose to measure at fair value eligible financial instruments and certain other items that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The standard requires that unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We will adopt SFAS No. 159 no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2009.  We are currently assessing the impact the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have on its financial position and results of operations.

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

The Company follows SFAS 143 “Accounting for asset retirement obligations”.  SFAS 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.  SFAS 143 requires recognition of the present value of obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets in the period in which it is incurred.  As of October 31, 2008 and October 31, 2007, we recognized the future cost to plug and abandon the gas wells over the estimated useful lives of the wells in accordance with SFAS No. 143.  The liability for the fair value of an asset retirement obligation with a corresponding increase in the carrying value of the related long-lived asset is recorded at the time a well is completed and ready for production.  The Company amortizes the amount added to the oil and gas properties and recognizes accretion expense in connection with the discounted liability over the remaining life of the respective well.  The estimated liability is based on historical experience in plugging and abandoning wells, estimated useful lives based on engineering studies, external estimates as to the cost to plug and abandon wells in the future and federal and state regulatory requirements.  The liability is a discounted liability using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate of 12%.

Revisions to the liability could occur due to changes in plugging and abandonment costs, well useful lives or if federal or state regulators enact new guidance on the plugging and abandonment of wells.

The Company amortizes the amount added to oil and gas properties and recognizes accretion expense in connection with the discounted liability over the remaining useful lives of the respective wells.

The following unaudited reserve estimates presented as of October 31, 2008 and 2007 were prepared by independent petroleum engineers.  There are many uncertainties inherent in estimating proved reserve quantities and in projecting future production rates and the timing of development expenditures.  In addition,  reserve  estimates of new discoveries that have  little  production  history  are  more  imprecise  than  those of properties with more production history.  Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.

Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil and natural gas which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions; i.e., process and costs as of the date the estimate is made. Proved developed oil and gas reserves are those reserves expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods.

Unaudited net quantities of proved developed reserves of crude oil and natural gas (all located within United States) are as follows:

UNAUDITED STANDARIZED MEASURE

The following information has been developed utilizing procedures prescribed by SFAS 69 "Disclosures About Oil and Gas Producing Activities" and based on crude oil and natural gas reserves and production volumes estimated by the Company. It may be useful for certain comparison purposes, but should not be solely relied upon in evaluating the Company or its performance. Further, information contained in the following table should not be considered as representative or realistic assessments of future cash flows, nor should the Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows be viewed as representative of the current value of the Company.

Future cash inflows were computed by applying year-end prices of oil and gas to the estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves. The future production and development costs represent the estimated future expenditures (based on current costs) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves, assuming continuation of existing economic conditions. Future income tax expenses were computed by applying statutory income tax rates to the difference between pre-tax net cash flows relating to our proved oil and gas reserves and the tax basis of proved oil and gas properties and available net operating loss carryforwards. Discounting the future net cash inflows at 10% is a method to measure the impact of the time value of money.
