4 Summary Prospective investors are urged to read this prospectus in its entirety. We intend to be in the business of mineral property exploration. To date, we have not conducted any exploration on our sole exploration target, the Little Bonanza mineral claim located approximately 30 kilometers northeast of the City of Sudbury in the Scadding Township of Ontario, Canada. We acquired a 100% right, interest and title in and to the claim for a cash payment of $7,000, which we paid to the vendor, Klondike Bay Resources. Our objective is to conduct mineral exploration activities on the Little Bonanza claim in order to assess whether it possesses economic reserves of gold, copper, nickel, platinum and palladium. We have not yet identified any economic mineralization on the Little Bonanza claim. Our proposed exploration program is designed to search for an economic mineral deposit. We were incorporated on October 18, 2004 under the laws of the state of Nevada. Our principal offices are located at 470 Granville Street, Suite 1120, Vancouver, British Columbia Canada V6C 1V5. Our telephone number is (604) 435-0301. The Offering: Securities Being Offered Up to 2,780,000 shares of common stock. Offering Price The selling shareholders will sell our shares at $0.10 per share until our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. We determined this offering price based upon the price of the last sale of our common stock to investors. Terms of the Offering The selling shareholders will determine when and how they will sell the common stock offered in this prospectus. Termination of the Offering The offering will conclude when all of the 2,780,000 shares of common stock have been sold, the shares no longer need to be registered to be sold or we decide to terminate the registration of the shares. Securities Issued and to be Issued 6,280,000 shares of our common stock are issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. All of the common stock to be sold under this prospectus will be sold by existing shareholders. Use of Proceeds We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock by the selling shareholders. 5 Summary Financial Information Balance Sheet October 31, 2005 (unaudited) Cash $16,732 Total Assets $16,732 Liabilities $6,250 Total Stockholders' Equity $10,482 Statement of Operations From Incorporation on October 18, 2004 to October 31, 2005 (unaudited) Revenue $ 0 Net Loss and Deficit ($23,218) Risk Factors An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. IF WE DO NOT OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FINANCING, OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL. Our current operating funds are less than necessary to complete all intended exploration of the Little Bonanza claim, and therefore we will need to obtain additional financing in order to complete our business plan. We currently do not have any operations and we have no income. As well, we will not receive any funds from this registration. Our business plan calls for significant expenses in connection with the exploration of the Little Bonanza claim. While we have sufficient funds to conduct the recommended phase one program at an estimated cost of $5,000 and a portion of the phase two exploration program at an estimated cost of $15,000, we will need additional funds in order to complete recommended exploration on the Little Bonanza claim. Even after completing these two phases of exploration, we will not know if we have a commercially viable mineral deposit. We will require additional financing to sustain our business operations if we are not successful in earning revenues once exploration is complete. We do not currently have any arrangements for financing and may not be able to find such financing if required. BECAUSE WE HAVE NOT COMMENCED BUSINESS OPERATIONS, WE FACE A HIGH RISK OF BUSINESS FAILURE. We have not yet commenced exploration on the Little Bonanza claim. Accordingly, we have no way to evaluate the likelihood that our business will be successful. We were incorporated on October 18, 2004 and to date have been involved primarily in organizational activities and the acquisition of the Little Bonanza claim. We have not earned any revenues as of the date of this prospectus. Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new mineral exploration companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the exploration of the mineral properties that we plan to undertake. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to exploration, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. 6 Prior to completion of our exploration stage, we anticipate that we will incur increased operating expenses without realizing any revenues. We therefore expect to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future. We recognize that if we are unable to generate significant revenues from development of the Little Bonanza Property and the production of minerals from the claim, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful, and it is doubtful that we will generate any operating revenues or ever achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail. BECAUSE OF THE SPECULATIVE NATURE OF EXPLORATION OF MINING PROPERTIES, THERE IS A SUBSTANTIAL RISK THAT OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL. The search for valuable minerals as a business is extremely risky. The likelihood of our mineral claim containing economic mineralization or reserves of gold, copper, nickel, platinum and palladium is extremely remote. Exploration for minerals is a speculative venture necessarily involving substantial risk. In all probability, the Little Bonanza claim does not contain any reserves and funds that we spend on exploration will be lost. As well, problems such as unusual or unexpected formations and other conditions are involved in mineral exploration and often result in unsuccessful exploration efforts. In such a case, we would be unable to complete our business plan. WE NEED TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN IF OUR BUSINESS IS TO SUCCEED. OUR INDEPENDENT AUDITOR HAS RAISED SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN. The report of our independent accountant to our audited financial statements for the period ended April 30, 2005 indicates that there are a number of factors that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Such factors identified in the report are that we have no source of revenue and our dependence upon obtaining adequate financing. If we are not able to continue as a going concern, it is likely investors will lose all of their investment. BECAUSE OF THE INHERENT DANGERS INVOLVED IN MINERAL EXPLORATION, THERE IS A RISK THAT WE MAY INCUR LIABILITY OR DAMAGES AS WE CONDUCT OUR BUSINESS. The search for valuable minerals involves numerous hazards. As a result, we may become subject to liability for such hazards, including pollution, cave-ins and other hazards against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. The payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on our financial position. EVEN IF WE DISCOVER COMMERCIAL RESERVES OF PRECIOUS METALS ON THE LITTLE BONANZA CLAIM, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY COMMENCE COMMERCIAL PRODUCTION. The Little Bonanza claim does not contain any known bodies of mineralization. If our exploration programs are successful in establishing gold of commercial tonnage and grade, we will require additional funds in order to place the Little Bonanza claim into commercial production. We may not be able to obtain such financing. BECAUSE OUR SOLE DIRECTOR OWNS 55.73% OF OUR OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK, HE COULD MAKE AND CONTROL CORPORATE DECISIONS THAT MAY BE DISADVANTAGEOUS TO OTHER MINORITY SHAREHOLDERS. Our director owns approximately 55.73% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Accordingly, he will have a significant influence in determining the outcome of all corporate transactions or other matters, including mergers, consolidations, and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets. He will also have the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The interests of our director may differ from the interests of the other stockholders and thus result in corporate decisions that are disadvantageous to other shareholders. 7 BECAUSE OUR PRESIDENT HAS OTHER BUSINESS INTERESTS, HE MAY NOT BE ABLE OR WILLING TO DEVOTE A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF TIME TO OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS, CAUSING OUR BUSINESS TO FAIL. Our president, Mr. John Fiddick, intends to devote approximately 15% of his business time providing his services to us. While Mr. Fiddick presently possesses adequate time to attend to our interests, it is possible that the demands on Mr. Fiddick from his other obligations could increase with the result that he would no longer be able to devote sufficient time to the management of our business. BECAUSE OUR SOLE DIRECTOR HAS NO TECHNICAL EXPERIENCE IN MINERAL EXPLORATION, OUR BUSINESS HAS A HIGHER RISK OF FAILURE. Our sole director has no technical training in the field of geology and specifically in the areas of exploring for, starting and operating a mine. As a result, we may not be able to recognize and take advantage of potential acquisition and exploration opportunities in the sector without the aid of qualified geological consultants. As well, with no direct training or experience, our management may not be fully aware of the specific requirements related to working in this industry. His decisions and choices may not be well thought out and our operations, earnings and ultimate financial success may suffer irreparable harm as a result. IF A MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK DOES NOT DEVELOP, SHAREHOLDERS MAY BE UNABLE TO SELL THEIR SHARES. There is currently no market for our common stock and no certainty that a market will develop. We currently plan to apply for listing of our common stock on the over the counter bulletin board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part. Our shares may never trade on the bulletin board. If no market is ever developed for our shares, it will be difficult for shareholders to sell their stock. In such a case, shareholders may find that they are unable to achieve benefits from their investment. A PURCHASER IS PURCHASING PENNY STOCK WHICH LIMITS HIS OR HER ABILITY TO SELL THE STOCK. The shares offered by this prospectus constitute penny stock under the Exchange Act. The shares will remain penny stock for the foreseeable future. The classification of penny stock makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary market, thus limiting investment liquidity. Any broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in our company will be subject to rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the Exchange Act. Rather than creating a need to comply with those rules, some broker-dealers will refuse to attempt to sell penny stock. Please refer to the "Plan of Distribution" section for a more detailed discussion of penny stock and related broker-dealer restrictions. Forward-Looking Statements This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. We use words such as anticipate, believe, plan, expect, future, intend and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking statements. You should not place too much reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks faced by us described in the "Risk Factors" section and elsewhere in this prospectus. Use Of Proceeds We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock offered through this prospectus by the selling shareholders. Determination Of Offering Price The selling shareholders will sell our shares at $0.10 per share until our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. There is no guarantee that our shares will be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. We determined this offering price, based upon the price of the last sale of our common stock to investors. 8 Dilution The common stock to be sold by the selling shareholders is common stock that is currently issued and outstanding. Accordingly, there will be no dilution to our existing shareholders. Selling Securityholders The selling shareholders named in this prospectus are offering all of the 2,780,000 shares of common stock offered through this prospectus. These shares were acquired from us in private placements that were exempt from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933 and pursuant to a mineral Little Bonanza Property purchase agreement. The shares include the following: 1. 1,200,000 shares of our common stock that the selling shareholders acquired from us in an offering that was exempt from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933 and was completed on December 24, 2004; 2. 1,500,000 shares of our common stock that the selling shareholders acquired from us in an offering that was exempt from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933 and was completed on January 10, 2005; 3. 80,000 shares of our common stock that the selling shareholders acquired from us in an offering that was exempt from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933 and was completed on January 21, 2005; The following table provides as of the date of this prospectus, information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock held by each of the selling shareholders, including: 1. the number of shares owned by each prior to this offering; 2. the total number of shares that are to be offered for each; 3. the total number of shares that will be owned by each upon completion of the offering; and 4. the percentage owned by each upon completion of the offering.

Each of the above shareholders beneficially owns and has sole voting and investment over all shares or rights to the shares registered in his or her name. The numbers in this table assume that none of the selling shareholders sells shares of common stock not being offered in this prospectus or purchases additional shares of common stock, and assumes that all shares offered are sold. The percentages are based on 6,280,000 shares of common stock outstanding on the date of this prospectus. 10 None of the selling shareholders: (1) has had a material relationship with us other than as a shareholder at any time within the past three years; (2) has ever been one of our officers or directors; or (3) is a broker-dealer or affiliate of a broker dealer. Plan Of Distribution The selling shareholders may sell some or all of their common stock in one or more transactions, including block transactions. The selling shareholders will sell our shares at $0.10 per share until our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. We determined this offering price arbitrarily based upon the price of the last sale of our common stock to investors. The shares may also be sold in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission's Rule 144. We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock. These are estimated to be $12,500. The selling shareholders, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the common stock. The selling shareholders must comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in the offer and sale of the common stock. In particular, during such times as the selling shareholders may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the common stock, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, they must comply with applicable law and may, among other things: 1. Not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our common stock; 2. Furnish each broker or dealer through which common stock may be offered, such copies of this prospectus, as amended from time to time, as may be required by such broker or dealer; and 3. Not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the Exchange Act. The Securities Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $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 those rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which: o contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; o contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties; o contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including "bid" and "ask" prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; o contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; o defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading penny stocks; and o contains such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size, and format) as the Commission shall require by rule or regulation; 11 The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to proceeding with any transaction in a penny stock, the customer: o with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; o details of the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; o the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and o monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those 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 acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities. Legal Proceedings We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings. Our address for service of process in Nevada is 7251 West Lake Mead Blvd, Suite 300, Las Vegas, NV 89128.

The percent of class is based on 6,280,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. Description Of Securities General Our authorized capital stock consists of 75,000,000 shares of common stock at a par value of $0.001 per share. Common Stock As of January 13, 2006, there were 6,280,000 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding that are held by 28 stockholders of record. Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of a majority of the shares of common stock voting for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. Two persons present and being, or representing by proxy, shareholders are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of our stockholders. A vote by the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares is required to effectuate certain fundamental corporate changes such as liquidation, merger or an amendment to our articles of incorporation. Holders of common stock are entitled to share in all dividends that the board of directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate pro rata in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock. Holders of our common stock have no pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to our common stock. Preferred Stock We do not have an authorized class of preferred stock. Dividend Policy We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business. As a result, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Share Purchase Warrants We have not issued and do not have outstanding any warrants to purchase shares of our common stock. Options We have not issued and do not have outstanding any options to purchase shares of our common stock. 13 Convertible Securities We have not issued and do not have outstanding any securities convertible into shares of our common stock or any rights convertible or exchangeable into shares of our common stock.

Nor was any such person connected with the registrant as a promoter, managing or principal underwriter, voting trustee, director, officer, or employee. Cane Clark LLP has provided us with an opinion regarding the valid issuance of our common stock. The financial statements included in this prospectus and the registration statement have been audited by HLB Cinnamon Jang Willoughby & Company, Chartered Accountants, to the extent and for the periods set forth in their report appearing elsewhere in this document and in the registration statement filed with the SEC, and are included in reliance upon such report given upon the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting. Disclosure Of Commission Position Of Indemnification For Securities Act Liabilities Our director and officer is indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes and our Bylaws. These provisions provide that we shall indemnify a director or former director against all expenses incurred by him by reason of him acting in that position. The directors may also cause us to indemnify an officer, employee or agent in the same fashion. We have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit the question of whether such indemnification is against public policy to a court of appropriate jurisdiction. We will then be governed by the court's decision. Organization Within Last Five Years We were incorporated on October 18, 2004 under the laws of the state of Nevada. On that date, Mr. John Fiddick was appointed as our sole director. As well, Mr. Fiddick was appointed as our president, secretary, treasurer and chief executive officer. Description Of Business In General We intend to commence operations as an exploration stage company. We will be engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties with a view to exploiting any mineral deposits we discover. We own a 100% beneficial interest in one mineral claim known as the Little Bonanza claim. There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on the Little Bonanza claim. We do not have any current plans to acquire interests in additional mineral properties, though we may consider such acquisitions in the future. Mineral property exploration is typically conducted in phases. Each subsequent phase of exploration work is recommended by a geologist based on the results from the most recent phase of exploration. We have not yet commenced the initial phase of exploration on the Little Bonanza claim. Once we have completed each phase of exploration, we will make a decision as to whether or not we proceed with each successive phase based upon the analysis of the results of that program. Our director will make this decision based upon the recommendations of the independent geologist who oversees the program and records the results. 14 Our plan of operation is to conduct exploration work on the Little Bonanza claim in order to ascertain whether it possesses economic quantities of gold, copper, nickel and platinum. There can be no assurance that an economic mineral deposit exists on the Little Bonanza claim until appropriate exploration work is completed. Even if we complete our proposed exploration programs on the Little Bonanza claim and we are successful in identifying a mineral deposit, we will have to spend substantial funds on further drilling and engineering studies before we will know if we have a commercially viable mineral deposit. Little Bonanza Claim Purchase Agreement On January 31, 2005, we entered into a mineral purchase and sale agreement with Klondike Bay Resources, a private company owned by Terry Loney of Garson, Ontario, whereby he sold to us a 100% right, interest and title in one mineral claim, located in the Sudbury mining division of Ontario, Canada. We acquired this interest in the Little Bonanza claim by paying Klondike Bay Resources $7,000. Description, Location and Access The Little Bonanza claim is located approximately 30 kilometres northeast of the City of Greater Sudbury, within the Scadding township which lies near the northern boundary of the Algonquin Lake Nipissing eco-region and at the eastern boundary of McLennan Township. Access to the property can be made by travelling east from the community of Skead for approximately three kilometers to Bonanza Lake, then east about one kilometer onto the claim. Alternatively, access can be made via the Wanapitei River by boat which passes through the eastern boundary of the claim. Climate and Topography The property lies in a forested and glaciated area dominated by a mixture of sugar maple wood, yellow birch, poplar, eastern hemlock, eastern white pine and red pine trees. The wet regions comprise of red maple, black ash, white spruce, tamarack and eastern white cedar trees. There are ridged and uneven rock outcrops covered in glacier debris and rocks. There is a mixture of wildlife including the white-tailed deer, wolves, lynxes, moose, black bears, chipmunks, squirrels, beavers, snowshoe hare and rabbit. The humid climate is cool with an average annual temperature of 3.5 degrees Celsius. Average summer temperature ranges from 11.8 degrees Celsius to 23.1 degrees Celsius. In winter the average ranges from -16 degrees Celsius to -6.9 degrees Celsius. The average precipitation is 872 mm and the average depth of 0.40 metres can accumulate over the winter. Title to the Little Bonanza Claim The Little Bonanza property consists of one claim block comprising of twelve unpatented mining claim units covering 192 hectares. A "mining claim block" refers to a specific section of land over which a title holder owns rights to explore the ground and subsurface, and extract minerals. Title to the Little Bonanza claim is registered in the name of Klondike Bay Resources. Claim details are as follows: Claim Name Record Number Expiry Date --------------------- ------------------- ------------------------- Little Bonanza S3018927 January 27, 2007 The claim was created on January 27, 2005 and is in good standing until January 27, 2007. This means that the claim will expire on January 27, 2006 unless we complete at least $4,800 worth of exploration work on the claim by that date. If this required exploration work is incurred, then the deadline is extended to January 27, 2008. In subsequent years, we must spend at least $200 on the claim to extend the expiry date by one year. 15 Mineralization Rock exposure on the Little Bonanza property is limited to about 15% to 20%. The balance of the property is cover with soil, which is up to several meters thick. The Little Bonanza claim is underlain with several rock types including Nipissing Gabbro, a dark, coarse-grained, intrusive igneous rock chemically equivalent to basalt. It is a plutonic rock, formed when molten magma is trapped beneath the Earth's surface and cools slowly into a hard, coarsely crystalline mass. The claim also includes Sudbury Dyke Swarm and folded Huronian Sediments Huronian Sediments pertains to certain non-fossiliferous rocks on the borders of Lake Huron from the Archaean age (2.5 billion years ago). The youngest rocks in the area are the olivine-magnetite types found in vertical dykes. Olivine-magnetite rocks are silicate minerals containing iron and magnesium which form at high temperature. Silicate minerals contain silicon and oxygen and are glass green in color. Exploration History No known exploration has been conducted on the area covered by the Little Bonanza claim. Geological Report We retained Mr. Scott Jobin-Bevans, a Ph.D. and professional geologist, to complete an evaluation of the Little Bonanza claim and to prepare a geology report on the claim. Based on his review, Mr. Jobin-Bevans concludes that the Little Bonanza claim warrants further exploration due to the geochemistry and inferred geological continuity, as well as the lack of previous exploration. Mr. Jobin-Bevans recommends an initial exploration program consisting of two phases. The first phase would consist of geological mapping and sampling. Geological mapping involves plotting previous exploration data relating to a property on a map in order to determine the best property locations to conduct subsequent exploration work. Geochemical sampling involves gathering rock and soil samples from property areas with the most potential to host economically significant mineralization. All samples gathered are sent to a laboratory where they are crushed and analysed for metal content. The first phase is estimated to cost $5,000 as described below. Budget - Phase I Type of Work Est. Cost (US$) Geological Review $500 Geological Mapping and Sampling $2,500 Report Writing/Consulting $1,500 Operating Supplies $500 ---------------- Sub-Total: $5,000 The second phase would consist of a geographical survey and a follow-up of the initial stage. Geophysical surveying is the search for mineral deposits by measuring the physical property of near-surface rocks, and looking for unusual responses caused by the presence of mineralization. Electrical, magnetic, gravitational, seismic and radioactive properties are the ones most commonly measured. Geophysical surveys are applied in situations where there is insufficient information obtainable from the property surface to allow informed opinions concerning the merit of properties.The second phase would cost approximately $15,000 as outlined below. 16 Budget - Phase II Type of Work Est. Cost (US$) Geographical Survey $7,500 (Targets for Drilling) Follow-up Mapping and sampling $3,500 Report Writing/Consulting $3,000 Operating Supplies $1,000 --------------- Sub-Total: $15,000 TOTAL $US: $20,000 Compliance with Government Regulation We will be required to conduct all mineral exploration activities in accordance with the Mining Act of Ontario. While we do not require any authorization to proceed with the initial two phases of the recommended exploration program, we will be required to obtain work permits from the Ontario Ministry of Northern Development and Mines for any subsequent drilling program and any other exploration work that results in a physical disturbance to the land if the program calls for the disturbance of more than 10,000 square meters of the property surface, or such areas that would total that amount when combined. A work permit is also required for the erection of structures on the property. There is no charge to obtain a work permit under the Mining Act. When our exploration program proceeds to the drilling stage, we may be required to post small bonds if the rights of a private land owner may be affected. We anticipate that the cost of a bond for such a program would not exceed $5,000. We may also be required to file statements of work with the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines. Such statements would be filed following the completion of the exploration and would cost approximately $500. The filing of statements of work would not have any impact on the timing or completion of our exploration program. We will also be required to undertake remediation work on any exploration that results in physical disturbance to the land. The cost of remediation work will vary according to the degree of physical disturbance. We will not incur any regulatory compliance costs in the first two phases of proposed exploration. The amount of these costs for subsequent exploration phases is not known at this time as we do not know the extent of the exploration program that will be undertaken beyond completion of the recommended exploration programs. Because there is presently no information on the size, tenor, or quality of any minerals or reserve at this time, it is impossible to assess the impact of any capital expenditures on earnings or our competitive position. Employees We have no employees as of the date of this prospectus other than our sole director. Research and Development Expenditures We have not incurred any other research or development expenditures since our incorporation. Subsidiaries We do not have any subsidiaries. Patents and Trademarks We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patents or trademarks. 17 Reports to Security Holders Although we are not required to deliver a copy of our annual report to our security holders, we will voluntarily send a copy of our annual report, including audited financial statements, to any registered shareholder who requests it. We will not be a reporting issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission until our registration statement on Form SB-2 is declared effective. We have filed a registration statement on Form SB-2, under the Securities Act of 1933, with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the shares of our common stock offered through this prospectus. This prospectus is filed as a part of that registration statement, but does not contain all of the information contained in the registration statement and exhibits. Statements made in the registration statement are summaries of the material terms of the referenced contracts, agreements or documents of the company. We refer you to our registration statement and each exhibit attached to it for a more detailed description of matters involving the company, and the statements we have made in this prospectus are qualified in their entirety by reference to these additional materials. You may inspect the registration statement, exhibits and schedules filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission at the Commission's principal office in Washington, D.C. Copies of all or any part of the registration statement may be obtained from the Public Reference Section of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 100 F Street NE, Washington, D.C. 20002. Please call the Commission at 1-800-SEC-0330 for further information on the operation of the public reference rooms. The Securities and Exchange Commission also maintains a web site at http://www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy statements and information regarding registrants that file electronically with the Commission. Our registration statement and the referenced exhibits can also be found on this site. Plan Of Operations Our plan of operation for the next twelve months is to complete the recommended phase one and two exploration programs on the Little Bonanza claim consisting of a geological mapping and geochemical sampling. We anticipate that these exploration programs will cost approximately $5,000 and $15,000 respectively. To date, we have not commenced exploration on the Little Bonanza claim. We plan to commence the phase one exploration program on the Little Bonanza claim in the spring of 2006. The program should take approximately one to two months to complete. We will then undertake the phase two work program during the summer of 2006. This program will take approximately one to three months to complete. We do not have any verbal or written agreement regarding the retention of any qualified engineer or geologist for this exploration program. As well, we anticipate spending an additional $15,000 on administrative fees, including fees payable in connection with the filing of this registration statement and complying with reporting obligations. Total expenditures over the next 12 months are therefore expected to be $35,000. While we have enough funds to cover the phase one exploration program and a portion of the phase two program, we will require additional funding in order to proceed with any additional recommended exploration on the Little Bonanza claim. We anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock or from director loans. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing or loans. Results Of Operations For The Period From Inception Through October 31, 2005 We have not earned any revenues from our incorporation on October 18, 2004 to October 31, 2005. We do not anticipate earning revenues unless we enter into commercial production on the Little Bonanza claim, which is doubtful. We have not commenced the exploration stage of our business and can provide no assurance that we will discover economic mineralization on the Little Bonanza claim, or if such minerals are discovered, that we will enter into commercial production. We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $23,218 for the period from our inception on October 18, 2004 to October 31, 2005. These operating expenses were comprised of donated rent costs of $2,000, donated services costs of $4,000, mineral property costs of $7,000, office and general expenses of $334 and professional fees of $9,884. 18 We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue exploration activities. For these reasons our auditors believe that there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Description Of Property We own the mineral exploration rights relating to the Little Bonanza mineral claim. We do not own any real property interest in the Little Bonanza claim or any other property. Certain Relationships And Related Transactions None of the following parties has, since our date of incorporation, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction with us or in any presently proposed transaction that has or will materially affect us: * Any of our directors or officers; * Any person proposed as a nominee for election as a director; * Any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to our outstanding shares of common stock; * Our sole promoter, John Fiddick; * Any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons. Market For Common Equity And Related Stockholder Matters No Public Market for Common Stock There is presently no public market for our common stock. We anticipate applying for trading of our common stock on the over the counter bulletin board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. However, we can provide no assurance that our shares will be traded on the bulletin board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize. Stockholders of Our Common Shares As of the date of this registration statement, we have 28 registered shareholders. Rule 144 Shares A total of 3,500,000 shares of our common stock are available for resale to the public after December 21, 2005 in accordance with the volume and trading limitations of Rule 144 of the Act.

F-5 (The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements) Crawford Lake Mining Inc. (An Exploration Stage Company) Notes to the Financial Statements April 30, 2005 1. Exploration Stage Company The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 18, 2004. The Company has acquired a 100% interest in one mineral claim consisting of 12 units located in Ontario, Canada. The Company is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No.7, "Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises". The Company's principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. The Company has not presently determined whether its properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable. These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has never generated revenues since inception and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations and to determine the existence, discovery and successful exploitation of economically recoverable reserves in its resource properties, confirmation of the Company's interests in the underlying properties, and the attainment of profitable operations. As at April 30, 2005, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $16,256, and has accumulated losses of $13,844 since inception. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will be filing an SB-2 Registration Statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission to register 6,280,000 shares of common stock for resale by existing shareholders of the Company. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the resale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies a) Basis of Presentation These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars. The Company's fiscal year-end is April 30. b) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. c) Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. d) Comprehensive Loss SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at April 30, 2005, the Company has no items that represent a comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements. F-6 Crawford Lake Mining Inc. (An Exploration Stage Company) Notes to the Financial Statements April 30, 2005 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) e) Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. f) Mineral Property Costs The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation on October 18, 2004 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property acquisition and exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations. g) Financial Instruments The fair values of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. h) Income Taxes Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" as of its inception. Pursuant to SFAS No. 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. i) Foreign Currency Translation The Company's functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Foreign currency transactions are occasionally undertaken in Canadian dollars and are translated into United States dollars using exchange rates at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are re-measured at each balance sheet date at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Foreign currency exchange gains and losses are charged to operations. The Company has not, to the date of these financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. j) Recent Accounting Pronouncements In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets - An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29". The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, "Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions", is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. SFAS No. 153 amends Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Early application is permitted and companies must apply the standard prospectively. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. F-7 Crawford Lake Mining Inc.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) j) Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued) In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, "Share Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"), which is a revision of SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and its related implementation guidance. SFAS 123R establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. SFAS 123R focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R does not change the accounting guidance for share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees provided in SFAS 123 as originally issued and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services". SFAS 123R requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award - the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). SFAS 123R requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. Public entities (other than those filing as small business issuers) will be required to apply SFAS 123R as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. Public entities that file as small business issuers will be required to apply SFAS 123R in the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. In March 2005, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 ("SAB 107") to give guidance on the implementation of SFAS 123R. The Company will consider SAB 107 during implementation of SFAS 123R. 3. Related Party Transactions During the year ended April 30, 2005 the Company recognized a total of $1,600 for donated services at $400 per month and $800 for donated rent at $200 per month beginning January 1, 2005, provided by the President of the Company. 4. Mineral Properties The Company entered into an Agreement dated January 31, 2005 with Klondike Bay Resources ("Klondike") to acquire a 100% interest in one mineral claim representing 12 units located in Ontario, Canada. To acquire a 100% interest in these claims, the Company paid $7,000, which was charged to operations during the period ended April 30, 2005. 5. Common Shares a) On December 21, 2004 the Company issued 4,700,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.001 per share for cash proceeds of $4,700. b) On January 10, 2005 the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of common stock pursuant to Regulation S at a price of $0.01 per share for cash proceeds of $15,000. c) On January 21, 2005 the Company issued 80,000 shares of common stock pursuant to Regulation S at a price of $0.10 per share for cash proceeds of $8,000. F-8 Crawford Lake Mining Inc. (An Exploration Stage Company) Notes to the Financial Statements April 30, 2005 6. Income Tax The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Pursuant to SFAS 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefit of net operating losses has not been recognized in the financial statements because the Company cannot be assured that it is more likely than not that it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. The Company has approximately $11,400 of net operating loss carryforwards available to offset taxable income in future years which expire through fiscal 2025. For the period ended April 30, 2005, the valuation allowance established against the deferred tax assets increased by $3,876. The components of the net deferred tax asset at April 30, 2005, and the statutory tax rate, the effective tax rate and the elected amount of the valuation allowance are indicated below: 2005 $ Net Operating Loss 11,400 Statutory Tax Rate 34% Effective Tax Rate - Deferred Tax Asset 3,876 Valuation Allowance (3,876) ------------------------------------------------------------ Net Deferred Tax Asset - ============================================================ F-9 Crawford Lake Mining Inc.

(The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements) F-13 Crawford Lake Mining Inc. (An Exploration Stage Company) Notes to the Financial Statements October 31, 2005 1. Exploration Stage Company The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 18, 2004. The Company has acquired a 100% interest in one mineral claim consisting of 12 units located in Ontario, Canada. The Company is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No.7, "Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises". The Company's principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. The Company has not presently determined whether its properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable. These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has never generated revenues since inception and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations and to determine the existence, discovery and successful exploitation of economically recoverable reserves in its resource properties, confirmation of the Company's interests in the underlying properties, and the attainment of profitable operations. As at October 31, 2005, the Company has working capital of $10,482, and has accumulated losses of $23,218 since inception. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is planning to file an SB-2 Registration Statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission to register 6,280,000 shares of common stock for resale by existing shareholders of the Company. The Company will not receive any proceeds from the resale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies a) Basis of Presentation These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars. The Company's fiscal year-end is April 30. b) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. c) Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. d) Comprehensive Loss SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at October 31, 2005, the Company has no items that represent a comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements. F-14 Crawford Lake Mining Inc. (An Exploration Stage Company) Notes to the Financial Statements October 31, 2005 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) e) Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. f) Mineral Property Costs The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation on October 18, 2004 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property acquisition and exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations. g) Financial Instruments The fair values of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. h) Income Taxes Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" as of its inception. Pursuant to SFAS No. 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. i) Foreign Currency Translation The Company's functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Foreign currency transactions are occasionally undertaken in Canadian dollars and are translated into United States dollars using exchange rates at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are re-measured at each balance sheet date at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Foreign currency exchange gains and losses are charged to operations. The Company has not, to the date of these financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. j) Recent Accounting Pronouncements In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 123R, "Share Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"), which is a revision of SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and its related implementation guidance. SFAS 123R establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. SFAS 123R focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R does not change the accounting guidance for share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees provided in SFAS 123 as originally issued and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services". SFAS 123R requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award - the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). SFAS 123R requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. Public entities (other than those filing as small business issuers) will be required to apply SFAS 123R as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. Public entities that file as small business issuers will be required to apply SFAS 123R in the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. F-15 Crawford Lake Mining Inc. (An Exploration Stage Company) Notes to the Financial Statements October 31, 2005 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) j) Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued) In March 2005, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 ("SAB 107") to give guidance on the implementation of SFAS 123R. The Company will consider SAB 107 during implementation of SFAS 123R. In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets - An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29". The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, "Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions", is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. SFAS No. 153 amends Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Early application is permitted and companies must apply the standard prospectively. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections - A Replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3". SFAS 154 changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle and applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle. It also applies to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. The provisions of SFAS No. 154 are effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. 3. Related Party Transactions During the six months ended October 31, 2005 the Company recognized a total of $2,400 (April 30, 2005 - $1,600) for donated services at $400 per month and $1,200 (April 30, 2005 - $800) for donated rent at $200 per month, provided by the President of the Company. 4. Mineral Property The Company entered into an Agreement dated January 31, 2005 with Klondike Bay Resources ("Klondike") to acquire a 100% interest in one mineral claim representing 12 units located in Ontario, Canada. To acquire a 100% interest in this claim, the Company paid $7,000, which was charged to operations during the period ended April 30, 2005. 5. Common Shares a) On December 21, 2004 the Company issued 4,700,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.001 per share for cash proceeds of $4,700. b) On January 10, 2005 the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of common stock pursuant to Regulation S at a price of $0.01 per share for cash proceeds of $15,000. c) On January 21, 2005 the Company issued 80,000 shares of common stock pursuant to Regulation S at a price of $0.10 per share for cash proceeds of $8,000. F-16 Crawford Lake Mining Inc. (An Exploration Stage Company) Notes to the Financial Statements October 31, 2005 6. Income Tax The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Pursuant to SFAS 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefit of net operating losses has not been recognized in the financial statements because the Company cannot be assured that it is more likely than not that it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. The Company has approximately $11,400 of net operating loss carryforwards available to offset taxable income in future years which expire through fiscal 2025. For the fiscal period ended April 30, 2005, the valuation allowance established against the deferred tax assets increased by $3,876.

Part II Information Not Required In The Prospectus Indemnification Of Directors And Officers Our officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "NRS") and our bylaws. Under the NRS, director immunity from liability to a company or its shareholders for monetary liabilities applies automatically unless it is specifically limited by a company's articles of incorporation that is not the case with our articles of incorporation. Excepted from that immunity are: (1) a willful failure to deal fairly with the company or its shareholders in connection with a matter in which the director has a material conflict of interest; (2) a violation of criminal law (unless the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful); (3) a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal profit; and (4) willful misconduct. Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by Nevada law; provided, however, that we may modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with our directors and officers; and, provided, further, that we shall not be required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless: (1) such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law; (2) the proceeding was authorized by our Board of Directors; (3) such indemnification is provided by us, in our sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested us under Nevada law; or (4) such indemnification is required to be made pursuant to the bylaws. Our bylaws provide that we will advance all expenses incurred to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was our director or officer, or is or was serving at our request as a director or executive officer of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request. This advanced of expenses is to be made upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said amounts should it be ultimately determined that the person was not entitled to be indemnified under our bylaws or otherwise. 39 Our bylaws also provide that no advance shall be made by us to any officer in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made: (a) by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding; or (b) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decision- making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to our best interests.
