In this Annual Report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars.

Since June 1, 1970, the government of Canada has permitted a floating exchange rate to determine the value of the Canadian dollar as compared to the United States dollar. On June 29, 2005, the exchange rate in effect for Canadian dollars exchanged for United States dollars (the US dollars that a Canadian dollar buys) was $0.8116. This exchange rate is based on the noon buying rates in New York City, for cable transfers in Canadian dollars, as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. For the past five years ended December 31 and for the last six month ends from December 31, 2004 to May 31, 2005, the following exchange rates were in effect for Canadian dollars exchanged for United States dollars (the US dollars that a Canadian dollar buys), calculated in the same manner as above:

  Annual Period  Average 
 
  Year ended Dec 31, 2004 $ 0.7936        
  Year ended Dec 31, 2003 $ 0.7194

3.D Risk factors

Any investment in our common shares involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the following information before you decide to buy our common shares. If any of the events discussed in the following risk factors actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In this case, the market price of our common shares could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment in our shares. In particular, you should consider carefully the following risk factors:

We have a history of losses.

We have incurred losses in our business operations since inception, and we expect that we will continue to lose money for the foreseeable future. From our incorporation to December 31, 2004, we have incurred losses totalling $1,990,564. Very few junior resource companies ever become profitable and typically incur large losses until they enter production or are able to sell a mineral property to a major resource company. Failure to achieve and maintain profitability may adversely affect the market price of our common shares.

Very few mineral properties are ultimately developed into producing mines.

The business of exploration for minerals and mining involves a high degree of risk. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable deposits of ore.

Substantial expenditures will be required for us to establish ore reserves through drilling, to develop metallurgical processes, to extract the metal from the ore and to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining.

Although substantial benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major mineral deposit, no assurance can be given that we will discover minerals in sufficient quantities to justify commercial operations or that we can obtain the funds required for development on a timely basis. The economics of developing precious and base metal mineral properties is affected by many factors including the cost of operations, variations in the grade of ore mined, fluctuations in metal markets, costs of processing equipment and other factors such as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection.

If we do not obtain additional financing, our business will fail.

Our current operating funds are less than necessary to acquire an interest in, and to conduct exploration on, a mineral property, and therefore we will need to obtain additional financing in order to complete our business plan. As at December 31, 2004, we had cash on hand of $433,617. Our business plan calls for significant expenses in connection with the acquisition and exploration of mineral claims. We will require additional financing in order to complete these activities. In addition, we will require additional financing to sustain our business operations if we are not successful in earning revenues once we complete exploration on any mineral property we acquire. We do not currently have any arrangements for financing and we can provide no assurance to investors that we will be able to find such financing if required.

6


We believe the only realistic source of future funds presently available to us is through the sale of equity capital. Any sale of share capital will result in dilution to existing shareholders.

Because management has only limited experience in resource exploration, the business has a higher risk of failure.

Our management, while experienced in business operations, has only limited experience in resource exploration. None of our directors or officers has any significant technical training or experience in resource exploration or mining. We rely on the opinions of consulting geologists that we retain from time to time for specific exploration projects or property reviews. As a result of our management’s inexperience, there is a higher risk of our being unable to complete our business plan.

Mineral exploration involves a high degree of risk against which we are not currently insured.

Unusual or unexpected rock formations, formation pressures, fires, power outages, labour disruptions, flooding, cave-ins, landslides and the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labour are risks involved in the operation of mines and the conduct of exploration programs. We have relied on and will continue to rely upon consultants and others for exploration expertise.

It is not always possible to fully insure against such risks and we may decide not to take out insurance against such risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate any future profitability and result in increasing costs and a decline in the value of our common stock.

We may require permits and licenses that we may not be able to obtain.

Our operations may require licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain all necessary licenses and permits that may be required to conduct exploration, development and mining operations at any projects we acquire.

Metal prices fluctuate widely.

Factors beyond our control may affect the marketability of any resource we discover. Metal prices have fluctuated widely, particularly in recent years. The effect of these factors cannot accurately be predicted.

The resource industry is very competitive.

The resource industry is intensely competitive in all its phases. We compete with many companies possessing greater financial resources and technical facilities than us for the acquisition of mineral concessions, claims, leases and other mineral interests as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees.

Our operations may be adversely affected by environmental regulations.

Our operations may be subject to environmental regulations promulgated by government agencies from time to time. Environmental legislation provides for restrictions and prohibitions on spills, release or emissions of various substances produced in association with certain mining industry operations, such as

7


seepage from tailings disposal areas, which would result in environmental pollution. A breach of such legislation may result in the imposition of fines and penalties. In addition, certain types of operations require the submission and approval of environmental impact assessments. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner, which means that standards, enforcement, fines and penalties for non-compliance are more stringent. Environmental assessments of proposed projects carry a heightened degree of responsibility for us and our directors, officers and consultants. The cost of compliance with changes in governmental regulations has a potential to reduce the profitability of our operations. We do not maintain environmental liability insurance.

The trading market for our shares is not always liquid.

Although our shares trade on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board, the volume of shares traded at any one time can be limited, and, as a result, there may not be a liquid trading market for our shares.

Our securities may be subject to penny stock regulation.

Our stock is subject to “penny stock” rules as defined in 1934 Securities and Exchange Act rule 3151-1. The Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Our common shares are subject to these penny stock rules. Transaction costs associated with purchases and sales of penny stocks are likely to be higher than those for other securities. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than U.S. $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).

The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our common shares in the United States and shareholders may find it more difficult to sell their shares.

ITEM 4.  INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY 

4.A History and development of the Company

8


     Our Registered Office in British Columbia is located at 2602 – 1111 Beach Avenue, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Our head office and principal office is located at 614 – 475 Howe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

     We were originally incorporated under the name, Entourage Holdings Ltd., pursuant to the Company Act (British Columbia) on June 16, 1995. On June 25, 1996, we changed our name to Entourage Mining Ltd.

     On February 18, 1998, we became a reporting Issuer as defined under the Securities Act of the Province of British Columbia in British Columbia, Canada.

     We have one subsidiary company, Entourage USA Inc., located at 6121 Lakeside Drive, Suite 260, Reno, Nevada 89511. The subsidiary company will seek mineral prospects in the United States.

We are engaged in the business of acquiring and exploring resource properties.

We are a reporting issuer in the United States and our Annual Report and 6K filings can be found on the SEC’s EDGAR system at www.sec.gov. We are a reporting issuer in certain Canadian jurisdictions and our required disclosure filings for Canada can be found at www.sedar.com.

As our business has developed, we have acquired interests in three resource properties as follows:

The Finlayson Lake Emerald Project (the Yukon Property)

In March 2003, we entered into an agreement with the YK Group, a syndicate of unrelated third party comprised of Paul Shatzko, Maryl Shatzko, Carl Verley, Shirley Verley, William Weston and Margaret Weston, to acquire YK Group’s interest in an option agreement dated November 13, 2002, entered into between the YK Group and Expatriate Resources Ltd., a company traded on the TSX-Venture Exchange. Upon the payment of $60,000 and delivery of 6,000,000 common restricted shares of our common stock, the YK Group will assign its interest to us in the November 13, 2002 option agreement. Of the $60,000 to be paid, $20,000 was paid to Expatriate by a third party on the Company’s behalf. The Company now owes this third party, Carl Verley, the sum of $20,000.

We have received an assignment of YK Group’s interest in the option agreement although we have not paid the YK Group $60,000.

By completing the YK Group’s obligations under the terms and conditions of the option agreement, we may acquire a 60% interest in and to the Finlayson Properties.

Because we assumed the obligations of the YK Group under its agreement with Expatriate, we are obligated to pay to Expatriate, CDN$80,000 in cash and to expend CDN$500,000 on the properties. Payment of the cash is as follows:

  On or before November 1, 2003 $ 10,000 (paid)  
  On or before November 1, 2004 $ 10,000 (paid)  
  On or before November 1, 2005 $ 15,000  
  On or before November 1, 2006 $ 15,000  
  On or before November 1, 2007 $ 30,000  

9


     Aggregate (total) expenditures on the properties are as follows:

  On or before November 1, 2003  $ 100,000 (completed)   
  On or before November 1, 2004  $ 150,000 (completed)   
  On or before November 1, 2005  $ 200,000 (completed)   
  On or before November 1, 2006  $ 250,000 (completed)   
  On or before November 1, 2007  $ 500,000  

Upon completion of the foregoing payments and expenditures, we will be assigned a 60% interest in and to the Finlayson properties. If the payments or expenditures do not occur at the precise time set forth therein, the agreement will be terminated.

The option agreement between YK Group and Expatriate grants the right to explore for gem materials on Expatriate’s claims. The extent of the exploration tenure will be reduced in time from the present 2976 claims to 200 claims in 5 years; in November 2004, the Company elected to reduce its option holdings to the Finlayson Lake Properties only and thereby informed Expatriate that the Light claims would no longer be included in the option agreement.

Expatriate has changed its name to “Yukon Zinc Corporation”.

The Black Warrior Project (the Nevada Property)

In June 2004, we entered into an option agreement (the “Black Warrior Agreement”) with Goodsprings Development Corp., a Nevada based corporation, whereby we may earn a 100% undivided interest in the Black Warrior project in Esmeralda County, Nevada.

To earn a 100% undivided interest in the Black Warrior project, Entourage Mining Ltd. (Lessee) shall make $USD payments to Goodsprings Development Corp (the “Lessor”) and Apex Deep Mines (the “Owner”) as described below:

Goodsprings Development Corp.

  Date    Rental Payment Amount   
 
  On execution of the Black Warrior Agreement 15,000.00 (paid)   
  June 1, 2005 15,000.00 (paid)   
  June 1, 2006 20,000.00   
  June 1, thereafter 25,000.00   
 
Apex '76' Deep Mines 
  September 4, 2004  4,000.00 (paid)   
  February 10, 2005 5,000.00 (paid)   
  February 10, 2006 7,500.00   
  February 10, thereafter 10,000.00   

10


Under the terms of the Black Warrior Agreement, Entourage may elect at any time to purchase the property for $400,000 USD and any Rental Payments paid shall be credited against the Purchase Price. There is no work commitment by the Company nor is there any share issuance in consideration of the Option in the Black Warrior Agreement.

All additional cash payments and work commitments are optional. However, if Entourage fails to make any cash payment on or before the times required as set out in the above table, the Option of Entourage to acquire the Black Warrior project shall terminate.

Upon Entourage completing the cash payments, Entourage shall have exercised the Option and shall have acquired a 100% undivided unencumbered beneficial interest in and to the Property subject only to a reserved 3% net smelter return royalty reserved unto Goodsprings. Entourage shall have the right to buy one-third of the foregoing 3% NSR for a one-time cash payment of $1,000,000 USD.

On April 21, 2005, the Company entered into agreement with United Carina Resources Corp. and CM KM Diamon ds Inc. whereby each of these two companies can acquire a 10% interest in the Black Warrior Project by paying to the Company the sum of $40,000 and making exploration expenditures of $85,000.

The Doran Uranium Property

In March 2005, Entourage Mining entered into an option agreement with Fayz Yacoub, a professional geologist and entrepreneur from Vancouver, British Columbia, to acquire a 100% undivided beneficial right, title and interest in 44 mineral claims known as the Doran Uranium Property situated in southeast Quebec approximately 85 kilometers east of Havre St. Pierre in the Baie Johan Beetz area of Costebelle Township. The claims encompass approximately 24.73 sq. km (2473.3 hectares). The Company can earn a 100% interest in the property by making cash payments of $35,000 (which has been done) and 125,000 shares in the first year (which shares have been issued) and a total of $220,000 and 750,000 shares over 4 years, expending $1,000,000 over three years in work commitments. The property is subject to a 2.5% net smelter royalty. The Company has the right to purchase up to three-fifths of the NSR, or 1.5%, for $1750,000.

The Hatchet Lake Uranium Properties

In April, 2005 the Company entered into an option with United Carina Resources Corp., a Saskatchewan company, to acquire a 20% interest in 4 uranium claim blocks situated in the Athabaska Basin of north-central Saskatchewan (the “Hatchet Lake Property”) for a cash payment of $40,000 (unpaid) and a work commitment of $100,000 per year for two years. The annual payments of $100,000 are to be made on a quarterly basis at $25,000 per quarter with the first payment due by June 30, 2005.

No work has yet been completed on the Hatchet Lake Property by the Company.

Competition

The mineral property exploration business, in general, is intensively competitive and there is not any assurance that even if commercial quantities of ore are discovered, a profitable market will exist for sale of same. Numerous factors beyond our control may affect the marketability of any substances discovered. These factors include market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets and 11


processing equipment, government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of mineral and environmental protection. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may make it difficult for us to receive an adequate return on investment.

We will compete with many companies possessing greater financial resources and technical facilities for the acquisition of mineral concessions, claims, leases and other mineral interests as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees.

Regulations

The Company is subject to the various environmental and business regulations of the jurisdictions in which it conducts mineral exploration.

These regulations can be onerous and, in some cases, expensive to comply with. In particular, the Company may be required to expend funds to reclaim or restore land disturbed by mineral exploration.

It is possible that the Company may not be able to afford to comply with various environmental and business regulations in the jurisdictions in which it conducts mineral exploration and would, as a result, have to curtail or cease operations and exploration.

The jurisdictions in which the Company is presently operating are, in the Company's view, known as jurisdictions which are friendly to mining activity and the Company believes that it can meet applicable regulatory requirements.

Management & Employees

We do not have any employees other than our directors and officers.

Our President and Chief Executive Officer, Gregory F. Kennedy, devotes approximately 50% of his business time to our affairs. We have a management agreement with Mr. Kennedy which is described in the “Related Party Transactions” section of this Annual Report.

Where necessary, we employ consultants, who in turn employ labourers, to further exploration on our mineral resource properties.

Office Space

We utilize about 600 square feet of office space in Vancouver, British Columbia. Our rent and related office expenses total approximately $1,400 per month.

Disclosure required of an extractive enterprise is contained in part in Item 4, Part B above. As the Company’s properties are not at an advanced stage of exploration, no reserve estimates are made nor as of yet certain what if any reserves will be on the properties.

The Doran Uranium Property

The Doran Uranium Property consists of 44 contiguous mineral claims (polygons) covering approximately 2473.3 hectares in the Baie Johan Beetz area. The claim block is centered at GPS 548009 E and 5572265 N.

The Doran property is located in the southeastern part of Quebec, along the north shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and about 25 kilometers west of Aguanish, approximately 85 kilometers east of Havre St. Pierre. The property extends inland from the Gulf of St Lawrence a distance of approximately 10 kilometers to the north.

The property is situated within the Costebelle Township, NTS map sheet 12 L/08. Access to the property is by daily scheduled flights to Natashquan-Aguanish, then by car from Aguanish to the Pashshibou River and to the southern part of the property.

The topography of the property for the most part is rolling hills having a maximum relief of 100 feet with elevation ranging from sea level to 100 feet. All mineralized areas of interest are located comfortably above sea and river levels. Any heavy equipment could very easily be driven from the road to any of the mineralized zones.

Exploration, including geological mapping, rock sampling, trenching and shallow drilling on the Doran Uranium Deposit resulted in the estimation of a historical uranium resource which requires verification to conform to Canadian NI 43-101 geological reporting standards. Before these standards were initiated, previous work on the property, done by Aguanish Uranium Inc., Noranda and Lacana Mining, was successful in locating and partially exposing several potential target areas, including the Doran East Centre target where three holes were drilled 14 feet apart with cores returning values of 6.4, 6.4 and 9.2 Lbs. Per ton U3 O8.

Entourage has made a down payment of $35,000 to acquire the option and has agreed to a work commitment of $200,000 of exploration in the first year of the Doran Uranium Property agreement.

Current State of Exploration

The Company’s Doran Uranium property acquisition does not have a NI 43-101 compliant report. The Company hopes to expend $200,000 in exploration work on this property in fiscal year 2005 and upon completion of these expenditures a compliant report may be commissioned. The Company does not have the working capital to make these expenditures and will have to raise further financing prior to undertaking exploration work.

The Hatchet Lake Uranium Properties

The Hatchet Lake properties are located 30 kilometers north and northeast of four known uranium deposits (Rabbit Lake, McLean Lake, Collins Bay and Eagle Point) and consist of 14,529 hectares (35,800 acres) of prospective uranium properties.

13


United Carina Resources Corp., a Saskatchewan based mineral exploration company, owns the Hatchet Lake Properties (TSX.V: UCA) and will be the operator of the project. The properties are accessible by improved gravel road from Highway 905 North in north central Saskatchewan.

Entourage will participate as to 20% of exploration expenses incurred by United Carina Resources Corp. The terms of the Agreement require the Company to pay $40,000 to United Carina and commit to a minimum of $200,000 in exploration expenditures over two years. At the present time the Company does not have sufficient financial resources to complete these obligations and will need to seek additional financing.

Current State of Exploration

United Carina Resources Corp. has informed the Company that a NI 43-101 geological report will be completed and United Carina will forward such report to the Company upon completion.

At this time, the Company will decide what program of exploration work it will undertake and will determine what financing it requires to undertake that program.

Black Warrior Project

The claim group is made up of 63 un-patented mining claims owned 100% by Goodsprings Development Corporation 2 held by Goodsprings under a mining lease from the Apex '76' Deep Mines Inc. The claims are located in Section 29, 30, 31&32, T. 1 S., R. 39 E.

The Black Warrior Property is situated in Esmeralda County, Nevada about 80 km (50 miles) southwest of Goldfield. Goldfield, the county seat, is 418 km (260 miles) southeast of Reno and 295 km (183 miles) northwest of Las Vegas. Both Reno and Las Vegas have regularly scheduled commercial air service. Silver Peak (pop 300) has been the center of mining activity since the1860’s. The village provides modest amenities including living quarters, etc. There are no services in Silver Peak and most residents shop in Tonapah. Silver Peak is suitable for housing a small workforce. The main industry is the former Cyprus Foote Lithium salt operation.

Entourage Mining Ltd. acquired the claims from Goodsprings Development Corporation of Nevada. The elevation on the property ranges from 4,960 feet on the eastern border to 6,000 feet on the western boundary of the claims. Access is via roughly 6 miles of unimproved dirt road and 2 miles of well-maintained gravel road from Nevada paved highway 226.

The property lies in the south-central portion of the Walker Lane Belt (WLB), a tectonically 'disturbed zone' which marks the physio-graphic boundary between the predominantly NNE-trending ranges of Nevada in the central Great Basin and the NW trending blocks of the composite Sierra Nevada massif in eastern Califomia. The WLB is a composite of 9 structural blocks with differing structural styles. The presence of abundant, faulted, volcanic cover rocks of Late Cenozoic age across much of the WLB indicates that regardless of style, faulting in all structural blocks is of the same age span, Late Cenozoic. In the Silver Peak and Lone Mountain areas, a low-angle decollement surface separates an extended upper plate of brittle deformed Proterozoic and Lower Paleozoic rocks from penetratively deformed Precambrian sedimentary rocks and plutonic rocks of various ages.

The Black Warrior project is a low-sulfidation, vein hosted system with potential for discovery of bulk-tonnage Au-Ag, Cu-Pb-Zn mineralization, high-grade Ag-Au veins and deep sediment-hosted gold mineralization. The table below summarizes the Black Warrior Project claims blocks (additional ground has since been staked but not yet registered):

At present the Company is concentrating its exploration activities on the Black Warrior Project in Esmeralda County Nevada. In November 2004, the Company employed the services of James A Turner, a professional geologist and a NI 43-101 'qualified person' to prepare a NI 43-101 compliant report on the Black Warrior Project. This report may be accessed at www.sedar.com under the Company’s public documents dated February 18, 2005.

In February 2005, Entourage contracted the services of Zonge Geosciences of Tucson Arizona to conduct a Controlled Source Magneto Telluric Survey (CSAMT) of the Black Warrior Project in Esmeralda County Nevada. The survey results were interpreted in report form by an independent geo-scientist, Frank Fritz of Sparks Nevada. Mr. Fritz reported to the Company as follows:

“The CSAMT survey appears to have defined a complex faulted range front block of sediments that ends abruptly into a deep and unusual alluvial filled basin to the northeast. The outcrop areas appear to be complexly faulted by northwest structures that are, in turn, offset by a series of north by northeast structures with considerable offsets.

The resistivities define at least eight rock units and two areas of unusual responses, Target areas I and II. The first Target area appears to fit the expected detachment fault structure mineralization type and may reflect multiple detachment structures. The second Target does not fit the typical geology of the area or the detachment target and may be a possible hot springs system. Both of these possible target areas appear to be on a horst block defined by two north northeasterly structures. The two Target areas are recommended for drilling. Both can be tested, approximately along CSMT Line 5, with angle holes. The interpreted Line 5 section is included below with expected targets and recommended drill holes.

No additional geophysical work is recommended until the current interpretation is evaluated with respect to the geology and tested by a drilling program. After drilling, the geophysical interpretation should be reevaluated to determine if other targets may exist. If additional property is acquired additional CSMT may be useful in assessing the potential of these areas and the relationship with the current survey area.”

Current State of Exploration:

The Company has received relevant tax material from the US Internal Revenue Service for the Company’s US subsidiary and is now awaiting final drill permit approval from the Bureau of Land Management prior to undertaking any drilling or further exploration. The Company’s geologist, James A.Turner, in conjunction with Ken Brook, a Nevada based consultant to the Company, has determined that a 20 drill hole program with 4 trenches should be conducted on targets identified by the Zonge survey. Drilling is anticipated to commence soon after the permits are issued provided that the Company can raise working capital to finance the work program.

The Finlayson Lake Properties:

Our claims comprise a total of 135,000 acres or 54,600 hectares. The properties are located in a northwesterly trending belt approximately 220 km in length by 35 km in width centered at latitude 61 degrees 31 minutes North, longitude 131 degrees 08 minutes West in southeastern Yukon Territory. The Finlayson Properties are located in the northern Pelly Mountains of the Yukon Plateau. The project area is 260 km east-northeast of Whitehorse and 180 km northwest of Watson Lake by air. The community of Ross River is located at the northwest end of the area.

15


The Finlayson Properties contain two thousand six hundred twenty six (2626) un-surveyed mining claims in the Watson Lake Mining District and the Whitehorse Mining District, in the Yukon Territory.

Access to the Finlayson Properties is via helicopter from the Finlayson Lake airstrip.

The properties are located in the northern Pelly Mountains of the Yukon Plateau. The area is covered by glacial - fluvial deposits at elevations below 1,700 meters and contain rocky outcropping and talus at higher elevations. Outcropping is sparse except along ridge crests, in north-facing cirques, and along actively eroding creek cuts. The main rock types occurring in the area are nearly flat lying layered metamorphic rocks belonging to the Yukon-Tanana Terrane. The Yukon-Tanana Terrane can be subdivided into several thrust faults bound in succession ranging in age from Devonian to Triassic. The rocks record the transition from continental margin sedimentation through continental arc magmatism to final submarine rifting. Intrusive into Yukon-Tanana successions are rocks ranging in age from late Devonian to Tertiary and ranging in composition from ultramafic to felsic. The foregoing was observed by Michael A. Power, M.Sc., P.Geo., when he visited the properties. We have been advised by Aurora Geosciences Ltd. that emeralds may be found in some parts of the Grass Lakes succession, the lowest member of the Yukon-Tanana Terrane. Not all members of the Yukon-Tanana Terrane contains emeralds. We do not know if there are potentially significant occurrences of economic mineralization on the properties.

In September 2003, the Company contracted the services of Amerlin Exploration Services Ltd. and Mr. Carl G. Verley, P. Geo and a member of the YK Group and a “qualified person” as defined in Canadian Mining “National Policy 43-101.

The complete report of Amerlin Exploration Services Ltd. on the 2003 exploration program is available on the Company website at www.entouragemining.com.

Current State of Exploration:

The Company’s 2003 / 2004 exploration program was disappointing for the search for emeralds.

With this in mind, the Company has decided to hold the Finlayson Lake claims until after the 2005 exploration season. The Company anticipates that True North Gems, another company in the area of the Finlayson Lake project, will make an exploration decision about its emerald exploration activities by October 2005. Should True North fail to find significant sized emeralds Entourage may elect to drop its option with Yukon Zinc Corp. This decision is expected to be made in the fall of 2005 but in advance of the $7,500 payment deadline of November 2005 under its agreement concerning the Finlayson Lake Properties.

ITEM 5.  OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS 

5.A Operating results

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated until

16


we begin removing and selling minerals. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than the sale of minerals found on the properties. That cash must be raised from other sources. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by others in Entourage Mining Ltd. We must raise cash to implement our project and stay in business. Even if we raise money, we do not know how long the money will last. It depends upon the amount of exploration we conduct and the cost thereof. We won’t know that information until we begin exploring our properties. We will not be able to complete the exploration of our properties until we raise money.

If we find mineralized material and it is economically feasible to remove the mineralized material, we will attempt to raise additional money through a subsequent private placement, public offering or through loans. If we do not raise all of the money we need, we will have to find alternative sources of funding, like a public offering, a private placement of securities, or loans from our officers or others.

Our exploration program is explained in as much detail as possible in the business section of this registration statement. We are not going to buy or sell any plant or significant equipment during the next twelve months. We will not buy any equipment until we have located a body of minerals and we have determined they are economical to extract from the land. We do not intend to interest other companies in the properties if we find mineralized materials. We intend to try to develop the reserves ourselves.

During the period ending December 31, 2004, the Company spent $178,678 in exploration activities and paid or accrued $118,788 in option payments. During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company incurred exploration costs of $176,628 and paid or accrued $70,000 in option payments. However, as per US GAAP, these expenses have not been capitalized and have been expensed instead.

The Company's loss (as well as operating expenses) for the year ended December 31, 2004 ('fiscal 2004') totaled $956,446 or $0.06 per share compared to $319,515 or $0.04 per share for the year ended December 31, 2003 ('fiscal 2003'). This was mainly because during fiscal 2004, office and sundry expenses were $45,803 as compared to $18,832 during fiscal 2003; during fiscal 2004 telephone expenses were $13,003 as compared to NIL during fiscal 2003; mineral property acquisition & exploration costs during fiscal 2004 were $297,466 as compared to $246,628 during fiscal 2003; consulting expenses were $70,013 during fiscal 2004 as compared to $3,000 during fiscal 2003; stock based compensation during fiscal 2004 was $421,000 as compared to NIL during fiscal 2003; during fiscal 2004 travel & promotion expenses were $66,579 as compared to NIL during fiscal 2003; during fiscal 2004 the rent expense was $9,177 as compared to NIL during fiscal 2003. This increase in expenses was mainly because the Company was much more active during the fiscal 2004, as compared to during fiscal 2003. These increased expenses during the fiscal 2004 were partially offset by the reduced professional fees which were $33,622 during fiscal 2004 compared to $49,399 during fiscal 2003.

5.B Liquidity and capital resources

As of the date of this report, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business operations.

On February 5, 2004, the Company completed a private placement for 889,500 units, comprised of one common share and one common share purchase warrant, at a price of $0.22 per unit, plus 108,000 flow-through common shares at a price of $0.22 per share, for total consideration of $219,450.

17


On June 8, 2004, the Company completed a private placement for 698,000 units, comprised of one common share and one common share purchase warrant, at a price of $0.404 (US$0.30) per unit, for total consideration of $282,331.

On December 31, 2004 the Company completed a private placement for 2,815,500 units, comprised of one common shares and one common share purchase warrant, at a price of $0.18 (US$0.15) per share, for total consideration of $510,876. In addition the Company issued 132,000 common shares paid as a finder’s fee in connection with the placement.

On December 31, 2004, the Company had $433,617 in cash and $459,918 in current assets as compared to having $95,133 in cash and $106,702 in current assets on December 31, 2003. On December 31, 2004 the Company had a positive working capital position of $138,483 as compared to a negative working capital position of $230,498 on December 31, 2003.

As of the date of this Annual Report, the Company has approximately negative $95,000 in working capital (a deficit). As a result, it is unable to undertake significant work programs and exploration on its mineral properties without first raising further financing.

5.C Research and development, patents and licenses, etc.

Our methods of exploration, development and extraction are not unique to our Company but are common in our industry.

We do not rely on patents, technological licenses or intellectual property licenses in our operations.

We did not have any research and development expenditures in the year ended December 31, 2004.

5.D Trend information

Our Black Warrior project is prospective for gold and copper.

The overall trend for mineral resources, and in particular for the gold and copper that the Company’s properties are prospective for, has been upwards in price for the last two to three years although some stabilization and leveling of prices has occurred in both commodities in the last six months.

We cannot predict with certainty where the price of copper or gold will move.

Both the market for copper and the market for gold are homogeneous, integrated commodities markets with a large number of both suppliers and buyers. The market is not one which is particularly susceptible to the influence of one or more large suppliers or buyers.

Our Hatchet Lake and Doran mineral properties are prospective for uranium.

There are fewer producers of uranium in the world than there are for copper and gold. The market for uranium is a homogeneous, integrated commodities market. The market is not one that is particularly susceptible to the influence of one or more large suppliers or buyers. The world average grade from producing uranium mines is 0.15 per cent U3O8, with spot uranium prices having risen from a cyclical low of US$7.10 (U.S.) per pound in late 2000 to US$29/lb. on June 29, 2005.

18


Our Finlayson Lake Properties are prospective for emeralds.

The emerald market is fractured and not homogenous. Unlike the diamond industry, the emerald industry does not have a Central Selling Organization (CSO) and the sales of emeralds cannot be categorized as having a discernable trend. Emerald prices vary with the quality of the individual gem.

5.E Off-balance sheet arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

5.F Tabular disclosure of contractual obligations

Not Applicable.

10.D Exchange Controls

There is no law or governmental decree or regulation in Canada that restricts the export or import of capital, or affects the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to a non-resident holder of common shares, other than withholding tax requirements. See "Item 10.E Taxation".

There is no limitation imposed by Canadian law or by our constituent documents on the right of a non-resident to hold or vote common shares, other than are provided in the Investment Canada Act (Canada). The following summarizes the principal features of the Investment Canada Act (Canada).

The Investment Canada Act (Canada) requires certain "non-Canadian" individuals, governments, corporation or other entities who wish to acquire a "Canadian business" (as defined in the

29


Investment Canada Act), or establish a "new Canadian business" (as defined in the Investment Canada Act) to file either a notification or an application for review with a governmental agency known as "Investment Canada". The Investment Canada Act requires that certain acquisition of control of Canadian business by a "non-Canadian" must be reviewed and approved by the Minister responsible for the Investment Canada Act on the basis that the Minister is satisfied that the acquisition is "likely to be of net benefit to Canada", having regard to criteria set forth in the Investment Canada Act. Only acquisitions of control are reviewable under the Investment Canada Act; however, the Investment Canada Act provides detailed rules for the determination of whether control has been acquired and, pursuant to those rules, the acquisition of one-third or more of the voting shares of a corporation may, in some circumstances, be considered to constitute an acquisition of control. Certain reviewable acquisitions of control may not be implemented before being approved by the Minister; if the Minister does not ultimately approve a reviewable acquisition, which has been completed, the acquired Canadian business must be divested. Failure to comply with the review provisions of the Investment Canada Act could result in, amongst other things, an injunction or a court order directing disposition of assets of shares.

10.E Taxation

Certain US Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a general discussion of the material United States Federal income tax law for U.S. holders that hold such common shares as a capital asset, as defined under United States Federal income tax law and is limited to discussion of U.S. Holders that own less than 10% of the common stock. This discussion does not address all potentially relevant Federal income tax matters and it does not address consequences peculiar to persons subject to special provisions of Federal income tax law, such as those described below as excluded from the definition of a U.S. Holder. In addition, this discussion does not cover any state, local or foreign tax consequences.

The following discussion is based upon the sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended to the date hereof (the "Code"), Treasury Regulations, published Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") rulings, published administrative positions of the IRS and court decisions that are currently applicable, any or all of which could be materially and adversely changed, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time. In addition, this discussion does not consider the potential effects, both adverse and beneficial, of any future legislation which, if enacted, could be applied, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time. The following discussion is for general information only and it is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any holder or prospective holder of common shares of the Company and no opinion or representation with respect to the United States Federal income tax consequences to any such holder or prospective holder is made. Accordingly, holders and prospective holders of common shares of the Company should consult their own tax advisors about the Federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of common shares of the Company.

U.S. Holders

30


As used herein, a "U.S. Holder" is a holder of common shares of the Company who or which is a citizen or individual resident (or is treated as a citizen or individual resident) of the United States for federal income tax purposes, a corporation or partnership created or organized (or treated as created or organized for federal income tax purposes) in the United States, including only the States and District of Columbia, or under the law of the United States or any State or Territory or any political subdivision thereof, or a trust or estate the income of which is includable in its gross income for federal income tax purposes without regard to its source, if, (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and (ii) one or more United States trustees have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

For purposes of this discussion, a U.S. Holder does not include persons subject to special provisions of Federal income tax law, such as tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, broker-dealers and Holders who acquired their stock through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation.

Distributions on common shares of the Company

U.S. Holders receiving dividend distributions (including constructive dividends) with respect to common shares of the Company are required to include in gross income for United States Federal income tax purposes the gross amount of such distributions to the extent that the Company has current or accumulated earnings and profits, without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distributions. Such Canadian tax withheld may be credited, subject to certain limitations, against the U.S. Holder's United States Federal income tax liability or, alternatively, may be deducted in computing the U.S. Holder's United States Federal taxable income by those who itemize deductions. (See more detailed discussion at "Foreign Tax Credit" below). To the extent that distributions exceed current or accumulated earnings and profits of the Company, they will be treated first as a return of capital up to the U.S. Holder's adjusted basis in the common shares and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of the common shares. Preferential tax rates for long-term capital gains are applicable to a U.S. Holder which is an individual, estate or trust. There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gains for a U.S. Holder which is a corporation.

Dividends paid on the common shares of the Company will not generally be eligible for the dividends received deduction provided to corporations receiving dividends from certain United States corporations. A U.S. Holder which is a corporation may, under certain circumstances, be entitled to a 70% deduction of the United States source portion of dividends received from the Company if such U.S. Holder owns shares representing at least 10% of the voting power and value of the Company. The availability of this deduction is subject to several complex limitations, which are beyond the scope of this discussion.

Foreign Tax Credit

A U.S. Holder who pays (or has withheld from distributions) Canadian income tax with respect to the ownership of common shares of the Company may be entitled, at the option of the U.S.

31


Holder, to either a deduction or a tax credit for such foreign tax paid or withheld. Generally, it will be more advantageous to claim a credit because a credit reduces United States Federal income taxes on a dollar-for-dollar basis, while a deduction merely reduces the taxpayer's income subject to tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid by (or withheld from) the U.S. Holder during that year. There are significant and complex limitations, which apply to the credit, among which is the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate shares of the U.S. Holder's United States income tax liability that the U.S. Holder's foreign source income bears to his or its world-wide taxable income. In the determination of the application of this limitation, the various items of income and deduction must be classified into foreign and domestic sources. Complex rules govern this classification process. There are further limitations on the foreign tax credit for certain types of income such as "passive income," "high withholding tax interest," "financial services income," "shipping income" and certain other classifications of income. The availability of the foreign tax credit and the application of the limitations on the credit are fact specific and holders and prospective holders of common shares of the Company should consult their own tax advisors regarding their individual circumstances.

Disposition of common shares of the Company

A U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss upon the sale of common shares of the Company equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received, and the Holder's tax basis in the common shares of the Company. This gain or loss will be capital gain or loss if the common shares are a capital asset in the hands of the U.S. Holder. Any capital gain will be a short-term or long-term capital gain or loss depending upon the holding period of the U.S. Holder. Gains and losses are netted and combined according to special rules in arriving at the overall capital gain or loss for a particular tax year. Deductions for net capital losses are subject to significant limitations. For U.S. Holders which are individuals, any unused portion of such net capital loss may be carried over to be used in later tax years until such net capital loss is thereby exhausted. For U.S. Holders which are corporations (other than corporations subject to Subchapter S of the Code), an unused net capital loss may be carried back three years from the loss year and carried forward five years from the loss year to be offset against capital gains until such net capital loss is thereby exhausted.

Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following discussion summarizes the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to a person who owns one or more common shares of the Company (the "Shareholder"), and who at all material times for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Canadian Act") deals at arm's length with the Company, holds all common shares solely as capital property, is a non-resident of Canada, and does not, and is not deemed to, use or hold any Common share in or in the course of carrying on business in Canada. It is assumed that the common shares will at all material times be listed on a stock exchange that is prescribed for the purposes of the Canadian Act.

This summary is based on the current provisions of the Canadian Act, including the regulations thereunder, and the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (1980) (the "Treaty") as

32


amended. This summary takes into account all specific proposals to amend the Canadian Act and the regulations thereunder publicly announced by the government of Canada to the date hereof and the Company's understanding of the current published administrative and assessing practices of Canada Customs and Revenue Agency. It is assumed that all such amendments will be enacted substantially as currently proposed, and that there will be no other material change to any such law or practice, although no assurances can be given in these respects. Except to the extent otherwise expressly set out herein, this summary does not take into account any provincial, territorial or foreign income tax law or treaty.

This summary is not, and is not to be construed as, tax advice to any particular Shareholder. Each prospective and current Shareholder is urged to obtain independent advice as to the Canadian income tax consequences of an investment in common shares applicable to the Shareholder's particular circumstances.

A Shareholder generally will not be subject to tax pursuant to the Canadian Act on any capital gain realized by the Shareholder on a disposition of a Common share unless the Common share constitutes "taxable Canadian property" to the Shareholder for purposes of the Canadian Act and the Shareholder is not eligible for relief pursuant to an applicable bilateral tax treaty. A Common share that is disposed of by a Shareholder will not constitute taxable Canadian property of the Shareholder provided that the Common share is listed on a stock exchange that is prescribed for the purposes of the Canadian Act (the Toronto Stock Exchange is so prescribed), and that neither the Shareholder, nor one or more persons with whom the Shareholder did not deal at arm's length, alone or together at any time in the five years immediately preceding the disposition owned, or owned any right to acquire, 25% or more of the issued shares of any class of the capital stock of the Company. In addition, the Treaty generally will exempt a Shareholder who is a resident of the United States for the purposes of the Treaty, and who would otherwise be liable to pay Canadian income tax in respect of any capital gain realized by the Shareholder on the disposition of a Common share, from such liability provided that the value of the Common share is not derived principally from real property (including resource property) situated in Canada or that the Shareholder does not have, and has not had within the 12-month period preceding the disposition, a "permanent establishment" or "fixed base," as those terms are defined for the purposes of the Treaty, available to the Shareholder in Canada. The Treaty may not be available to a non-resident Shareholder that is a U.S. LLC, which is not subject to tax in the U.S. Any dividend on a Common share, including a stock dividend, paid or credited, or deemed to be paid or credited, by the Company to a Shareholder will be subject to Canadian withholding tax at the rate of 25% on the gross amount of the dividend, or such lesser rate as may be available under an applicable income tax treaty. Pursuant to the Treaty, the rate of withholding tax applicable to a dividend paid on a Common share to a Shareholder who is a resident of the United States for the purposes of the Treaty will be reduced to 5% if the beneficial owner of the dividend is a company that owns at least 10% of the voting stock of the Company, and in any other case will be reduced to 15%, of the gross amount of the dividend. It is Canada Customs and Revenue Agency`s position that the Treaty reductions are not available to a Shareholder that is a "limited liability company" resident in the United States. The Company will be required to withhold any such tax from the dividend, and remit the tax directly to Canada Customs and Revenue Agency for the account of the Shareholder.

ITEM 15.  Controls and Procedures 

34


Our Chief Executive Officer and President, Gregory F. Kennedy and our Chief Accounting Officer, Prabha Varshney, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in US Exchange Act Rule 13(a)-14(c) within 90 days of the date of this Form 20-F have concluded that, as of such date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that material information relating to the Company was made known to them by others within the Company particularly during the period in which this Form 20-F was being prepared.

Under US Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) the term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the US 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 an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the US Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Entourage Mining Ltd.

We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of Entourage Mining Ltd. (an exploration stage company) as at December 31, 2004 and the consolidated statement 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. The financial statements of Entourage Mining Ltd. as of December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, were audited by other auditors whose report dated May 6, 2004, included an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

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

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2004 and the results of its operations and its cash flows and the changes in stockholders’ equity for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, to date the Company has incurred losses of $1,914,932, has no sources of revenue, and further losses are anticipated. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in this regard are also described in Note

1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2004 AND 2003

(Stated in Canadian Dollars)


1.     
NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
 
 
Organization
 
The Company was incorporated in the Province of British Columbia, Canada on June 16, 1995.
 
 
Exploration Stage Activities
 
The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Upon location of a commercial reserve, the Company would enter the development stage.
 
 
Going Concern
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. This contemplates that assets will be realized and liabilities and commitments satisfied in the normal course of business.
 
 
As reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements the Company has incurred a net loss of $1,914,932 for the period from June 16, 1995 (inception) to December 31, 2004 and has no source of revenue. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future acquisition, exploration and development of profitable operations from mineral property interests. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock. Although there are no assurances that management’s plans will be realized, management believes that the Company will be able to continue operations in the future. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
 
2.     
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
 
The financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below:
 
 
a)     
Basis of Presentation
 
   
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned inactive subsidiary, Entourage USA Inc. which was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 3, 2003. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
 
   
The financial statements as at December 31, 2003 and for the year then ended are not consolidated.

2.     
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
 
b)     
Mineral Claim Payments and Exploration Expenditures
 
   
The Company expenses all costs related to the acquisition, maintenance and exploration relating to unproven mineral properties, to which it has secured exploration rights. When proven and probable reserves are determined for a property and a feasibility study prepared with respect to the property, then subsequent exploration and development costs of the property will be capitalized. To date, the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of its exploration prospects. Therefore, all costs have been expensed.
 
 
c)     
Use of Estimates
 
   
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions of future events that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to the determination of impairment of assets, mineral property carrying values, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, and determination of fair value for stock based transactions. Financial results as determined by actual events could differ from those estimates.
 
 
d)     
Equipment
 
   
Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization based on the estimated useful life of the asset is calculated as follows:
 
   
Office furniture                    20% straight line basis
Computer equipment          25% straight line basis
 
 
e)     
Environmental Costs
 
   
Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are charged to operations or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations, and which do not contribute to current or future revenue generation, are charged to operations. Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable, and the cost can be reasonably estimated. Generally, the timing of these accruals coincides with the earlier of completion of a feasibility study or the Company’s commitments to plan of action based on the then known facts.
 
 
f)     
Capital Stock – Flow-through shares
 
   
Under United States GAAP when flow-through shares are issued, the proceeds are allocated between the issue of shares and the sale of tax benefits. The allocation is made based on the difference between the quoted price of the existing shares and the amount that the investor pays for the shares. The shareholders' equity is reduced and a liability is recognized for this difference which amounted to $2,376 for the flow-through shares issued in 2004. The liability is reversed when the tax benefits are renounced and a deferred tax liability is recognized at that time. Income tax expense (recovery) is the difference between the amount of the deferred tax liability and the liability recognized on issuance.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
 
g)     
Foreign Currency Translation
 
   
The functional currency of the Company is Canadian dollars and these financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted. Foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their Canadian dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items are translated at historical exchange rates, except for items carried at market value, which are translated at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the year. Exchange gains and losses arising on foreign currency translation are included in the determination of operating results for the period.
 
 
h)     
Financial Instruments
 
   
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, Goods and Services Tax recoverable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and amounts payable to related parties. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. The fair value of the Company’s current assets and current liabilities are estimated by management to approximate their carrying values based on the immediate or short-term maturity of these instruments.
 
   
The fair value of amounts due to related parties is not determinable as they have no repayment terms (Note 6).
 
   
The fair value of the Company’s rights to purchase net smelter royalties (“NSR”) (refer to Note 4) is not determinable at the current stage of the Company’s exploration program. No value has been assigned by management. The Company does not use any derivative or hedging instruments.
 
 
i)     
Income Taxes
 
   
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109 – “Accounting for Income Taxes” (SFAS 109). This standard requires the use of the asset and liability approach for accounting and reporting on income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. To the extent that it is not more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be realized, a valuation allowance is provided.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
 
j)     
Stock Based Compensation
 
   
Effective from January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the fair value method of accounting for employee stock compensation cost pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement 123. Prior to that date, the Company used the intrinsic value method under APB Opinion 25. No compensation cost was recognized in 2002, as there were no options outstanding at that date. Under the method of accounting for the change to the fair value method, compensation cost recognized in 2003 is the same amount that would have been recognized if the fair value method would have been applied for all years since the original effective date of FASB Statement 123 (January 1, 1995). There was no effect on net income and earnings per share had the fair value method been applied in each of the years 2004 and 2003 as there were no outstanding awards in each of those years.
 
 
k)     
Loss Per Share
 
   
Basic loss per common share is computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128 – “Earnings Per Share” by dividing income and losses by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted loss per share amounts reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted to common shares. The presentation is only of basic earnings (loss) per share as the effect of potential dilution of securities is anti-dilutive.
 
 
l)     
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
   
(i)           In March 2004, the FASB issued EITF No. 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments ("EITF 03-1"). The objective of EITF 03- 1is to provide guidance for identifying impaired investments. EITF 03-1 also provides new disclosure requirements for investments that are deemed to be temporarily impaired. In October 2004, the FASB delayed the recognition and measurement provisions of EITF 03-1 until implementation guidance is issued. The disclosure requirements are effective for annual periods ending after June 15, 2004, and remain in effect. Management believes that the adoption of EITF 03-1 will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
 
   
(ii)            In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs (“SFAS 151”). SFAS 151 requires issuers to treat idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage) as current-period charges regardless of whether such charges are considered abnormal. In addition, SFAS 151 requires the allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS 151 will be effective for all inventory costs incurred in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Management believes the adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)
 
   
(iii)      In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment ("SFAS 123(R)"), which requires the compensation cost related to share-based payments, such as stock options and employee stock purchase plans, be recognized in the financial statements based on the grant-date fair value of the award. SFAS 123(R) is effective for all interim periods beginning after December 15, 2005. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
 
   
(iv)      In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions (“SFAS 153”) SFAS 153 requires that exchanges of non-monetary assets are to be measured based on fair value and eliminates the exception for exchanges of non-monetary, similar productive assets, and adds an exemption for non-monetary exchanges that do not have commercial substance. SFAS 153 will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Management does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Stock Options
 
   
In February 2004 the Company implemented a Stock Option Plan (“SOP”) for its officers, directors and employees to allow for up to 1,600,000 share purchase options to be granted at US $0.25 per share, for a period not to exceed five years. In November 2004 the SOP was amended to provide for the issuance of up to 2,200,000 incentive stock options to directors, officers, employees and non-investor relations consultants. (Refer to Note 10(a)).
 
   
The Company accounts for the grant of options using the fair value method prescribed in SFAS No. 123, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Compensation for unvested options is amortized over the vesting period. The Company granted 1,450,000 stock options at various times during the year ended December 31, 2004 (2003 – Nil). A value of $343,700 for the options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0%, (2) expected volatility of 175%, (3) risk free interest rate of 3% and, (4) expected life of 2 years. The weighted average fair value of options granted for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $0.29 (2003 - $Nil).

The Company granted a total of 1,450,000 stock options at various times during the period February 1, 2004 to September 9, 2004. All options were issued at an exercise price of US $0.25 per share. On November 31, 2004 the exercise price of all options then outstanding (1,350,000) was reduced to US $0.15 per share and the term of the options was extended from two to five years. As a result, in accordance with SFAS 123, the Company has also recorded an additional compensation expense of $77,300, being the estimated incremental fair value of the modified terms of these options. The fair value was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0%, (2) expected volatility of 175%, (3) risk free interest rate of 3% and, (4) expected life of 5 years.
