ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
Organization | |
The Company was incorporated in the Province of British Columbia, Canada on June 16, 1995. The Company is in the business of mineral exploration. | |
Exploration Stage Activities | |
The Company has not produced any revenues from its principal business or commenced significant commercial operations and is considered an exploration stage company as defined by SEC Guide 7 with reference to Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) topic 915. In the exploration stage, management devotes most of its activities to conducting exploratory programs and developing business plans. | |
Going Concern Uncertainty | |
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. The Company has accumulated a net loss of $16,968,520 since its inception. There is a wording capital deficiency of $229,971 and the Company has no sources of operating revenue. The continuance of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing as needed to pursue new business opportunities and ultimately upon generating profitable operations from its mineral property exploration and development activities. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Management has plans to seek additional capital through private placements of its common stock and loans from related parties to fund expenditures for the next year. Although there are no assurances that managements 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 as a going concern. | |
2. |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Accounting policies followed in the preparation of the March 31, 2012 unaudited interim financial statements are consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent year, 2011, as reported in Form 20-F, have been omitted. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012. | |

Forward-Looking Statements
This MD&A contains certain statements that may be deemed forward-looking statements. All statements in this MD&A, other than statements of historical fact, that address exploration drilling, exploitation activities and events or developments that the Company expects to occur, are forward looking statements.

Information inferred from the interpretation of drilling results and information concerning mineral resource estimates may also be deemed to be forward looking statements, as it constitutes a prediction of what might be found to be present when and if a project is actually developed. Although the Company believes the expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include market prices, exploitation and exploration successes, and continued availability of capital and financing, and general economic, market or business conditions. Investors are cautioned that any such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Companys management on the date the statements are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements in the event that managements beliefs, estimates or opinions, or other factors, should change.
Managements Responsibility for Financial Statements
The information provided in this MD&A, including the unaudited interim financial statements, is the responsibility of management. In the preparation of these statements, estimates are sometimes necessary to make a determination of the future values for certain assets or liabilities. Management believes such estimates have been based on careful judgments and have been properly reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
Management maintains a system of internal controls to provide reasonable assurance that the Companys assets are safeguarded and to facilitate the preparation of relevant and timely information.

and we intend to seek and acquire additional properties worthy of exploration and development.
Entourage is an exploration stage company and there is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of the properties, and further exploration will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility of all of our claims is determined.
Mineral Projects
The Pires Gold Project (Brazil) Interest sold during the period ended March 31, 2012
Pires Property Description
The Company was exploring for Sediment Hosted Vein gold deposits on 8 mineral licenses covering approximately 12,000 hectares in southern Goiás State, Brazil. The Pires Gold Project (Pires) originally consisted of 5 mineral licenses covering more than 8,500 hectares (21,000 acres) located 2.5 hours drive on a paved highway that crosses the licenses from Brasilia (the capital of Brazil) and about 1 hour outside of the small city of Pires do Rio, Goiás State. Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company dropped two of the southernmost claim blocks and acquired 5 new claim blocks surrounding the original land package. The property is rectangular in shape and is approximately 8 kilometres long and 5 kilometres wide.
The Pires Property covers sericite schist, chlorite schist and quartzites that have been intensely weathered under oxidizing tropical conditions. Metamorphic foliation of the schists and quartzites dips mainly to the west, and appears to be tightly folded. These metamorphic rocks belong to the Brasilia Belt, a region where terrains from the west have been thrust eastward over the ancient (Archean) Sao Francisco craton.

Concurrent with this transaction, the Company has agreed to sell its 40% interest for $100,000 payable in two tranches, the first on signing (received) and the second no later than June 30, 2012.
The Doran Uranium Prospect (Quebec)
Doran Uranium Property Description
The Doran Uranium property consists of 47-contiguous mineral claims (polygons) covering approximately 2,473 hectares in the Baie Johan Beetz area of Costebelle Township, Quebec. 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 kilometres west of Aguanish, approximately 109 kilometres east of Havre St. Pierre. The property extends inland from the Gulf of St Lawrence a distance of approximately 10 kilometres to the north. Locally this area is known as Moyenne Cote Nord or middle coast north of the St. Lawrence Seaway.
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 metres with elevation ranging from sea level to 100 metres. All mineralized areas of interest are located comfortably above sea and river levels.
The climate around the property area is characterized by long winters, generally extending from late October until mid-April.
Doran Uranium Property Agreements
By agreement dated March 15, 2005, the Company obtained an option to acquire a 100% interest in 44 claim blocks prospective for uranium situated in Costebelle Township in eastern Quebec (the Doran Property) in exchange for cash payments of $220,000, the issuance of 75,000 common shares and expenditures of $1,000,000 on the Doran Property over three years, as follows:
a. |
$35,000 and 12,500 common shares within ten business days of the date of approval of the agreement (paid and issued); | |
b. |
$35,000 and 12,500 common shares on or before March 15, 2006 (paid and issued); and expending $200,000 on or before March 15, 2006 (incurred); | |
c. |
$75,000 and 25,000 common shares on or before March 15, 2007 (paid and issued); and expending $300,000 on or before March 15, 2007 (incurred by Abbastar Holdings Inc. (Abbastar) see below); and | |
d. |
$75,000 (paid in 2008 by Abbastar see below) and 25,000 common shares on or before March 15, 2008 (issued); and expend an additional $500,000 on or before March 15, 2008 (incurred by Abbastar see below). |
All the above terms have been met and the Company earned 100% interest of the property.
The property interest is subject to a 2.5% Net Smelter Return (NSR). The Company has the right to purchase up to three-fifths of the NSR, or 1.5%, for $1,750,000.
On February 13, 2007, the Company entered into an option agreement (the Option) with Abbastar Holdings Inc. (Abbastar), a TSX Venture Exchange listed company, whereby Abbastar may earn up to a 70% interest in the Doran Property by making a one time cash payment of $100,000 CDN (received) to the Company and spending $5,000,000 on the Doran Property over 4 years (the Company retains the right to purchase the NSR on the Doran Property). The TSX Venture Exchange approved this transaction on May 30, 2007. The terms of the Option provide that Abbastar may earn its interest in the Doran property as follows:
- 20% interest by spending $500,000 on or before February 13, 2008 (incurred); | |
- 15% additional interest by expending an additional $1,000,000 on or before February 13, 2009 (incurred); | |
- 15% additional interest by expending an additional $1,500,000 on or before February 13, 2010; and | |
- 20% additional interest by expending an additional $2,000,000 on or before February 13, 2011. |
As of March 31, 2012, Abbastar had earned a 35% interest in the Doran property but, has allowed the balance of their option to expire.
Competitive factors in the market for mineral resources
The Company is prospecting for uranium in Quebec. It is anticipated that uranium generated power will become more popular in the decades to come as rising oil prices and political strife in the worlds oil producing regions continue. In 2010, the annual sales volume of U3O8 reached 42.8 million pounds and production of uranium, if any, by the Company would have no significant effect on the price of uranium.
Applicable Regulations and Permits
The Company has obtained the necessary work, environmental and regulatory permits required to undertake the exploration programs it is undertaking on its mineral properties. The Company anticipates that, assuming further planned work will be done, there will be no difficulties in obtaining necessary work, environmental and regulatory permits for further exploration work. The jurisdictions wherein our properties are located have long histories in mining exploration and are friendly and accommodating to mineral exploration.
Claim Status
All claims of the Doran Uranium Project are in good standing; furthermore, the Corporation has $1,335,273 in excess work credits (Dépenses Acceptées) that will be applied in increments of $1,200 per claim as the claims approach renewal; this will enable the Corporation to keep the claims in good standing to 2013 and beyond.
Doran Uranium Project Exploration Activities
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 (1978) 14 feet apart with cores returning values of 6.4, 6.4 and 9.2 Lbs. Per ton uranium (U3O8).
We expended $245,591 in exploration work on the property in fiscal year 2005 and a National Instrument 43-101 compliant report by Eric Ostensoe (P.Geo.) was commissioned. In late February 2006, Mr. Ostensoe completed his report and the Company posted the report on SEDAR and EDGAR (March 9, 2006) as well as on our website. We spent $346,166 on drilling and exploration in fiscal 2006 and reported drill results on July 20, 2006. As well, in July 2006, the Government of Quebec reimbursed our company $57,745 as part of the Provinces mining exploration incentive program. This rebate was based upon our 2005 drilling exploration expenses. In April 2007, an updated NI 43-101 Technical Report was prepared by Michel Proulx, M.Sc., P. Geo and Michel Boilly, Ph.D., P.Geo, both Qualified Persons as that term is described in National Instrument 43-101, and this report was filed on SEDAR by Abbastar Holdings Ltd. on May 2, 2007.
To date, the Doran Showing, located at the south of Doran (drilled in 2006 & the Fall of 2007) and the North East grid have both been successfully drilled in confirming the presence of a series of sub-parallel uranium bearing pegmatites.
In total, over 6,000 metres have been completed on the Doran property by our company and Abbastar and the companies are encouraged that the goal of delineating a Rossing type (Namibia) uranium deposit may be realized.
The completion of the Fall 2008 exploration program earned Abbastar an additional 15% interest in the property and Abbastar has now earned a 35% interest in the Doran property but has allowed the balance of their option to expire.
For further information on the Doran Property, please refer to the 43-101 Technical Report dated October 10, 2010 located on our website at www.entouragemining.com.
Future Exploration and Development
The Company is currently contemplating future exploration and development on its Doran Property. As the Company has fulfilled the terms of the original sub-agreement with the vendor, there is no further required work to maintain this exploration property.

Results of Operations for the Period Ended March 31, 2012 |
During the period ended March 31, 2012, the Company reported net income of $20,389 or $0.00 per share, as compared to a net loss of $142,733 or $0.01 per share for the period ended March 31, 2011. Expenses decreased from $78,089 in 2011 to a gain of $19,274 in the current period, a decrease of $97,363. This decrease was mainly attributable to:
Fair value adjustment of derivative liabilities decreased from a loss of $64,644 for the period ended March 31, 2011 to a gain of $1,115 for the period ended March 31, 2012. During the period ended March 31, 2011, the expiry date of the warrants was extended one year to January 25, 2012 with no other changes to the terms of the warrants. The fair value of the term extension was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0%, (2) expected volatility of 164%, (3) risk free interest rate of 1.32% and, (4) expected life of 1 years. This is a non-cash expense.
Mineral property costs decreased from $51,393 for the period ended March 31, 2011 to a gain of $44,401 for the period ended March 31, 2012. This decrease was due to selling its interest in the Pires Gold Project as previously disclosed.
Overall, the Companys operating expenses decreased as compared to the prior period as a result of the sale of its Pires Gold Project that occurred during the period ended March 31, 2012 and the lack of working capital. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to raise funds in which case the Company may be unable to meet its obligations. Should the Company be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, the net realizable value of its assets may be materially less than the amounts recorded in the interim financial statements.

Liquidity |
As of the date of this report, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business operations.
On March 31, 2012, the Company had $39,915 in cash compared to $1,278 on December 31, 2011. On March 31, 2012, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $229,971 compared to a working capital deficiency of $404,119 on December 31, 2011.
Subsequent to March 31, 2012, the Company has completed a private placement of 3,074,120 units for a total proceed of $153,706 at CDN$0.05 per unit. The proceeds of this private placement had been received as at March 31, 2012 but the shares had not been issued until April 13, 2012. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one half share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant is exercisable on or before April 13, 2013 at a price of $0.10 per share and on or before April 13, 2014 at a price of US$0.15. All Shares issued under the Offering and any Shares issuable on the exercise of the Warrants have a hold period expiring August 13, 2012 under applicable Canadian securities laws. The proceeds from the Offering will be used for general working capital purposes.
During the period ended March 31, 2012, the Company agreed to re-purchase the previously optioned 10% interest in its Pires Gold Project for $10,000 cash and the issuance of 300,000 shares at a deemed value of $15,000. Concurrent with this transaction, the Company has agreed to sell its Pires interest for $100,000 payable in two tranches, the first on signing (received) and the second no later than June 30, 2012. The Company has ceased all exploration activities in Brazil.
The Company anticipates it will require additional capital in the future to finance ongoing exploration of its properties and general and administrative expenses, such capital to be derived from the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and/or the completion of private placement financings. The Company may also seek short-
term loans from directors of the Company. There can be no assurance the Company will be able to obtain required financing in the future on acceptable terms to the Company.
1.7 |
Capital Resources |
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion on our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011. 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 we begin extracting, processing and selling minerals. Accordingly, we must raise cash continuously 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 projects and stay in business. Even if we raise money, we do not know how long the money will last. The Company requires financial resources to fund its ongoing costs of operations.
Entourage has historically relied upon equity financings to satisfy its capital requirements and will continue to depend heavily upon equity capital to finance its activities. The Company has also received additional funds pursuant to property option receipts. There can be no assurance the Company will be able to obtain required financing in the future on acceptable terms to the Company.
The Company anticipates it will need additional capital in the future to finance ongoing exploration of its properties, such capital to be derived from the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and/or the completion of private placements. The Company may also seek short-term loans from directors of the Company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements |
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Transactions with Related Parties |
Amounts payable to related parties as of March 31, 2012 of $23,807 (December 31, 2011 - $128,771) is owing to directors and to a public company with directors in common for management fees, consulting fees and for expenses paid on behalf of the Company. The amounts are non-interest bearing, unsecured, and have no fixed terms of repayment.
During the period ended March 31, 2012, the Company incurred $15,000 (March 31, 2011 - $15,000) in management fees to its directors.
The Company received share subscriptions in the amount of $108,400 from directors and officers of the Company for the private placement of 3,074,120 units completed subsequent to March 31, 2012 for a total proceed of $153,706 at CDN$0.05 per unit. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one half share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant is exercisable on or before April 13, 2013 at a price of $0.10 per share and on or before April 13, 2014 at a price of US$0.15.
The above transactions have been recorded at exchange amount that is the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties.
1.10 |
First Quarter |
First quarter results differ significantly from other quarters due to the fair value adjustment of derivative liabilities in the first quarter of 2011. The exercise price of these warrants is denominated in United States dollars, which differs from the Companys functional currency (Canadian dollars) and therefore these warrants cannot be considered to be indexed to the Companys own stock. Accordingly, the fair value of the warrants must be accounted for as a derivative liability with changes in fair value recorded in the statement of operations. This is a non-cash expense. First quarter results also differ significantly from other quarters as a result of the sale of the Companys interest in the Pires Gold Project.
1.11 |
Proposed Transactions |
There are no pending transactions that have not been disclosed previously in this MD&A.
1.12 |
Critical Accounting Estimates |
This section is not applicable, as the Company has no material accounting estimates. Material accounting estimates usually disclosed by resource issuers such as assumptions regarding depletion, resource and production values and capital write downs are not applicable to the Company as it is still at an exploration and development stage.
1.13 |
Changes in Accounting Policies including Initial Adoption |
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial statements.
Mineral Claim Payments and Exploration Expenditures
The Company is engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred. The Company assesses the carrying cost for impairment under the FASB ASC topic 360 at each fiscal quarter end. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs subsequently incurred to develop such properties are capitalized. Carrying value will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the established life of the proven and probable reserves. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any non-recoverable amount will be charged to operations.
Income Taxes:
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method as stipulated by ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis together with information on 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 year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities or a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced to estimated amounts to be realized by the use of a valuation allowance. A valuation allowance is applied when, in managements view, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax will not be utilized.
In the event that an uncertain tax position exists in which the Company could incur income taxes, the Company would evaluate whether there is a probability that the uncertain tax position taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. Reserves for uncertain tax position would then be recorded if the Company determined it is probable that a position would not be sustained upon examination or if a payment would have to be made to a taxing authority and the amount is reasonably estimable. As of December 31, 2011, the Company does not believe it has any uncertain tax positions that would result in the Company having a liability to the taxing authorities.
Stock Based Compensation:
The Company has a stock-based compensation plan which is described more fully in Note 7. The Company measures the compensation cost of stock options and other stock-based awards to employees and directors at fair value at the grant date and recognizes compensation expense over the requisite service period for awards expected to vest.
Except for transactions with employees and directors, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Additionally, the Company has determined that the dates used to value the transaction are either:
(1) The date at which a commitment for
performance by the counter party to earn the equity instruments is established;
or
(2) The date at which the counter partys performance is complete.
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share:
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to the common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted net income per common share includes the dilution that could occur upon the exercise of options and warrants to acquire common stock, computed using the treasury stock method which assumes that the increase in the number of shares is reduced by the number of shares that the Company could have repurchased with the proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants (which are assumed to have been made at the average market price of the common shares during the reporting period).
Exploration Stage Company:
The Company has not produced any revenues from its principal business or commenced significant commercial operations and is considered an exploration stage company as defined by SEC Guide 7 with reference to Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) topic 915. In the exploration stage, management devotes most of its activities to conducting exploratory programs and developing business plans.
1.14 |
Financial Instruments and Risk Management |
The Companys financial instruments consist of cash, other receivable, accounts payable, loan payable and amounts due to related parties. Unless otherwise noted, it is managements opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. The fair value of the Companys 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.
Foreign Exchange Risk
The Company is subject to foreign exchange risk for purchases denominated in foreign currencies. The Company operates outside of the U.S. primarily in Canada and Brazil and is exposed to foreign currency risk due to the fluctuation between the currency in which the Company operates and the United States Dollars. Foreign currency risk arises from the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates relative to the United States dollar.
