ITEM 1: BUSINESS

General

Red Metal Resources Ltd. was incorporated in Nevada on January 10, 2005 as Red Lake Exploration, Inc.  We changed our name to Red Metal Resources Ltd. on August 27, 2008.

On August 21, 2007, we formed Minera Polymet Limitada, a limited liability company, under the laws of the Republic of Chile.  We own 99% of Polymet, which holds our Chilean mineral property interests.  Under Chilean law, a resident of Chile must be a shareholder in a limitada.  To meet this requirement, 1% of Polymet is owned by a Chilean resident, an experienced manager who has organized an office and other resources for us to use and is Polymet’s legal representative in Chile. Polymet’s office is located in Vallenar, III Region of Atacama, Chile.  When we refer to “Red Metal”, the “company”, “we”, “us” or “our” in this report, we mean Red Metal Resources Ltd. together with Minera Polymet Limitada.

Our resident agent’s office is at 711 S. Carson Street, Suite 4, Carson City, Nevada, 89701.  Our business office is at 195 Park Avenue, Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada, P7B 1B9.  Our telephone number is (807) 345-7384; our email address is admin@redmetalresources.com; and our web address is www.redmetalresources.com.  Information on our web site is not a part of this annual report.

We are a start-up exploration stage company without operations.  We are in the business of acquiring and exploring mineral claims. All of our claims are located in the III Region of Atacama, Chile. We have not determined whether our claims contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable. We have not produced revenues from our principal business and are considered an exploration stage company as defined by “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises.”

Our ability to realize a return on our investment in mineral claims depends upon whether we maintain the legal ownership of the claims. Title to mineral claims involves risks inherent in the process of determining the validity of claims and the ambiguous transfer history characteristic of many mineral claims.  To the best of our knowledge, and after consultation with an attorney knowledgeable in the practice of mining, we believe that we have taken the steps necessary to ensure that we have good title to our mineral claims.  We have had our contracts and deeds notarized, recorded in the registry of mines and published in the mining bulletin and we review the mining bulletin regularly to determine whether other parties have staked claims over our ground.  We have discovered no such claims.

Chile’s mining and land tenure policies were established to secure the property rights of both domestic and foreign investors to stimulate development of mining in Chile. The government of Chile owns all mineral resources, but exploration and exploitation of these resources are permitted through exploration and mining concessions. A mineral concession must pass through three stages to become a permanent mining concession, namely, pedimento, manifestacion and mensura.

A pedimento is an initial exploration claim. It can be placed on any area, whereas the survey to establish a permanent mensura claim can only be completed on free areas where no other mensuras exist. A pedimento is valid for a maximum of two years. At the end of this period it may either be reduced in size by at least 50% and renewed for an additional two years or entered into the manifestacion process to establish a permanent mensura claim. New pedimentos can overlap existing pedimentos, but the pedimento with the earliest filing date takes precedence providing the claim holder maintains the pedimento in accordance with the mining code and the applicable regulations.

Manifestacion is the process by which a pedimento is converted to a permanent mining claim. At any stage during its two-year life, the holder of a pedimento can submit a manifestacion application, which is valid for 220 days. To begin the manifestacion process, the owner must request a survey (mensura) within 220 days. After the survey request is accepted, the owner has approximately 12 months to have the claim surveyed by a government-licensed surveyor, inspected and approved by the national mining service, and affirmed as a mensura (equivalent to a patented claim) by a judge. Thereafter, an abstract describing the claim is published in Chile’s official mining bulletin (published weekly) and 30 days later the claim is inscribed in the appropriate mining registry.

3

A mensura is a permanent property right that does not expire so long as the annual fees (patentes) are paid in a timely manner. Failure to pay the patentes for an extended period can result in the claim being listed for sale at auction, where a third party can acquire a claim for the payment of the back taxes owed and a penalty.

In Chile, we have both pedimento and mensura claims.  We cannot guarantee that any of our pedimento claims will convert to mensura claims. Some of our pedimentos are still in the registration process and some are in the manifestacion stage. We may decide, for geologic, economic or other reasons, not to complete a registration or manifestacion or to abandon a claim after it is registered.  Some of our pedimentos may have been staked over other owners’ claims as permitted by the Chilean mining code.  Our pedimento rights in these claims will not crystallize unless the owners of the underlying claims fail to pay their taxes or otherwise forfeit their interests in their claims.  Our purpose in over-staking is to claim free ground around others’ claims and to have the first right to forfeited claims if we want them.  Over-staking is easier and less costly than staking available ground around claims and ensures that all available ground is covered that might otherwise be missed.

We have a close working relationship with Minera Farellon Limitada (“Minera Farellon”), a Chilean company owned equally by Kevin Mitchell, Polymet’s legal representative in Chile, and Richard Jeffs, who holds more than 5% of our shares of common stock (see Table 22).  Minera Farellon investigates potential claims and often ties them up, by staking new claims, optioning or buying others’ claims, all at its own cost.  This gives us an opportunity to review the claims to decide whether they are of interest to us.  If we are interested, then we either proceed to acquire an interest in the property directly from the owner, or, if Minera Farellon has already obtained an interest, we take an option to acquire its interest. Minera Farellon, which is located in the city of Vallenar, also provides some of our logistical support in Vallenar under a month-to-month contract, which enables us to limit our operating expenses to those needed from time to time.

Unproved mineral properties

Due to a lack of operating capital, during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013, we conducted no material exploratory operations on any of our properties.  Until we are able to raise operating capital, which we cannot assure that we can do, we will not be able to initiate new exploration efforts or continue the exploration efforts we have begun.  On February 11, 2013 we reported that we entered into a memorandum of understanding with Geoactiva Spa. ("Geoactiva") pursuant to which Geoactiva expressed an intention to acquire our Perth property, subject to the results of a due diligence investigation.  See the section below titled, “Memorandum of Understanding with Geoactiva Spa”.  The memorandum of understanding gives us confidence there is an opportunity to raise funds by selling some of our properties or by entering into joint venture agreements to develop some of our properties. We have three active properties which we have assembled since the beginning of 2007— the Farellon, Perth, and Mateo. These properties consist of both mining and exploration claims and are grouped into two district areas – Carrizal Alto area properties and Vallenar area properties.

The Farellon 1 – 8 is the first mineral claim that we acquired in Chile. It covers 66 hectares and is centered about 309,150 east and 6,888,800 south UTM PSAD56 Zone 19 in Province of Huasco, Commune of Huasco, III Region of Atacama, Chile.

We acquired the claim on April 25, 2008, for $550,000 and owe a royalty equal to 1.5% of the net proceeds that we receive from the processor to a maximum of $600,000 with a monthly minimum of $1,000 when we start exploiting the minerals extracted from the claim.  We can pay any unpaid balance of the royalty at any time. We have not yet exploited the claim.

On September 17, 2008, we bought the Cecil 1 – 49, Cecil 1 – 40 and Burghley 1 – 60 claims for $27,676. On December 1, 2009, we initiated the manifestacion process when we applied to convert the Cecil 1 – 40 and Burghley 1 – 60 exploration claims to mining claims.  In January 2013 we abandoned the manifestacion process for the Cecil 1-40 and Burghley 1-60 claims due to the fact that several mensuras underlying the claims covered the most prospective ground as outlined in our prospecting and mapping program completed in April 2012.

The Cecil claim covers 230 hectares and is centered at 310,250 east and 6,891,500 south UTM PSAD56 Zone 19 and lies approximately 1.7 kilometers north of the Farellon 1 – 8 border. The claim covers a 700 metre strike length of a mineralized vein interpreted to be part of the same mineralizing system as the Farellon 1 – 8 vein. An investigation completed during the Farellon 1 – 8 acquisition uncovered a broad regional reconnaissance sampling program completed in 1996 showing results from the areas covered by the Cecil claim. Results from the 1996 sampling show copper and gold grades similar to grades returned from the Farellon vein, indicating that the Cecil claim could have similar mineralized bodies.  

Between July 2010 and November 2011 we registered seven pedimento, Farellon 3 through 9, at a cost of $2,408 to cover 1,800 hectares of ground around our Farellon 1 – 8 claim.  In January 2013 we allowed the Farellon 4 through 9 pedimentos to lapse due to underlying claims.  In February 2013 we commenced the manifestacion process with the Farellon 3 pedimento.

On August 21, 2012, we acquired four mineral claims – Azucar 6-25, Kahuna 1-40, Stamford 61-101, and Teresita – through the government auction for a total price of $19,784. The Azucar claim is the most prospective of these claims as it covers a 1,200 metre strike length of a mineralized vein interpreted to be part of the same mineralizing system as the Farellon 1 – 8 vein. Three parallel veins have also been identified on the Azucar claim during the 2012 mapping and prospecting program and can be seen on Figure 3.   

Location and means of access. The Farellon property is approximately 40 kilometers west of the Pan-American Highway, about 1 hour and 15 minutes by vehicle from the town of Vallenar which has a population of 40,000 and modern facilities.  High-tension power lines and a fiber-optic communications line run along the highway and both power and rail are connected to the Cerro Colorado iron ore mine only 20 kilometers from the Farellon property. The area is serviced from Copiapó, a city of 70,000 with daily air and bus services to Santiago and other centers.

The Farellon property can be accessed by driving approximately 20 kilometers north on the Pan-American Highway from Vallenar then turning northwest towards Canto del Agua.  From Canto del Agua, the Farellon property is approximately 10 kilometers along a well-maintained gravel road.  There are numerous gravel roads in the area, so a guide is necessary to access the property the first time.  All of the roads are well maintained and can support large machinery necessary to transport drills, backhoes and bulldozers.  Water is readily available in Canto del Agua and could probably be found on the Farellon property where all of the historic drill holes intersected water.

Exploration history .The Farellon property is in the Carrizal Alto mining district and lies 5 kilometers along strike south of the center of the historic Carrizal Alto copper-gold mine. Veins of the Farellon property were exploited as part of the Carrizal Alto mines. We have located no hard data summarizing all of the past mining activity, but tailings, slag dumps and the size of the shafts and some of the shallow surface workings are evidence of extensive historical mining.

8

Mine workings of various sizes are all along the Farellon property, but only one modern exploration program has been completed.  In 1996, the Farellon and two other veins, the Fortuna and the Theresa, were explored by an Australian junior mining company Minera Stamford S.A.  Their exploration included a large mapping and surface sampling program followed by a 34-hole RC drilling program.  Of these 34 drill holes, 23 were drilled on the Farellon 1 – 8 claim.  The RC drilling program on the Farellon claim consistently intersected oxide and sulphide facies mineralization along a 2 kilometer-long zone covering the Farellon claim and strike extents to the south.  Mineralization is 2 to 35 meters wide with an average width of 5 meters.  The mineralized zone consists of one or more discrete veins and, in places, stockwork veining and mineralization.  While drilling covered the length of the property, gaps up to 350 meters are untested and infill drilling is required to confirm an economic ore body. Table 4 presents the significant intersections from the 23 holes drilled on the Farellon claim in the 1996 drilling.

The Farellon area has two major lithological units: Paleozoic metamorphic sediments consisting of schists, phyllites and quartzites; and the Franja Central diorites.  The metamorphosed sediments outcrop in the western part of the property and have been metamorphosed to lower greenschist facies and then extensively overprinted by hydrothermal alteration.  Hydrothermal alteration is directly associated with the shear zone.  The diorite underlies the eastern part of the project area and has been extensively intruded by northeasterly trending intermediate mafic dykes.  At the Farellon property, a small stock-like felsic body named Pan de Azucar intrudes the diorite.  The intrusive relationship between the diorite and metamorphic sediments always appear to be tectonic.  Within the property and at the main Carrizal Alto workings to the north, the major mineralization is intimately related to the south-southwest trending mylonitic sheared contact between the metamorphic sediments and the diorite.  The shear is considered a splay of the main Atacama Fault Zone and dips 30º to 65º west. This contact parallels the regional geological trend and coincides with a major lineament which extends for hundreds of kilometers.  The sheared contact is 50 meters to 200 meters wide over the 1.7-kilometre strike length of the Farellon property.  Veins are typically 3 to 15 meters wide, striking south-southwest and dipping approximately 65 degrees to the northwest.

Mineralization . The Farellon property lies within the Candelaria iron oxide-copper-gold (IOCG) belt of Chile. Ore bodies in the belt occur in veins, breccias, stringer bodies and layer parallel replacement bodies and are typically associated with north-south trending faults related to the Atacama Fault Zone.  All IOCG deposits have a strong association with iron oxides in the form of hematite or magnetite.  In the Candelaria region, larger ore bodies are located where the fault zones intersect a lithological contact with significant rheological contrast such as a sedimentary and volcanic intrusive contact.

Economic IOCG deposits are generally polymetallic and can include iron, copper, gold, zinc, lead, uranium and cobalt among others.  The Farellon property historically has been exploited for copper and to a lesser extent, gold.  Cobalt mineralization was observed during the 1996–97 exploration work, but we have found no records of cobalt extraction.

Drilling (Fall 2009). In September 2009 we completed a 725-metre RC drilling program on the Farellon property. Table 5 summarizes the results of our drilling.

The drilling program was designed to confirm historic drilling results and test mineralization down dip of previous drilling. Of the five holes drilled, three holes—FAR–09–A, B and E—tested historic intersections FAR–96–09, 021 and 022 summarized in Table 3; and two—FAR–09–C and D—tested depth extents of the previously known mineralization. Results of the drilling show grades and widths of mineralization consistent with historic exploration results and have given us valuable geological information showing the possibility of a shallow, 30-degree dip of the mineralization.

We commissioned Micon International Limited (“Micon”) to prepare a technical report that complies with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 summarizing the information obtained from this drilling program. Micon concluded that our drilling confirmed the general location and tenure of the mineralization identified during the 1996 drilling program and noted some minor disparities between historical 1996 gold and copper assays and the recent 2009 gold and copper assays in two of the drill holes—FAR–09–A and E. In FAR–09–E. Micon recommended that we investigate these disparities during the next phase of drilling.

The drilling identified that the copper and gold mineralization exhibited a direct correlation in both location and relative intensity and provided useful information for outlining the relative location and spacing of drill holes in our next exploration programs.

All of our 2009 drill holes intersected oxide facies mineralization with only minor amounts of sulphides observed in drill hole FAR–09–D. When we have established the general trend of the mineralization we can conduct some drilling to identify the oxide-sulphide interface.

Following the 2009 drilling program, Micon recommended that we conduct a two-phase drilling program. The first phase would consist of approximately 1,200 meters of diamond drilling to assist in defining the structural controls on the mineralization, which could have been misinterpreted in the past due to the limited geological information obtained from the historic RC drilling, and the depth and nature of the sulphide mineralization.  

10

QA/QC, sampling procedures and analytical methods. We conducted sampling on one-meter intervals, which is generally the industry-standard sampling practice for RC drilling. Sampling started at the collar of the hole and proceeded to the toe or bottom of the drill hole on one-meter increments. Generally, the sample recovery was good to excellent for the 2009 drilling program. Table 5 summarizes significant assay results.  They are reported as drill lengths as we have not established the width of the mineralized zone.

Drilling (Summer 2011). During June through September 2011 we conducted a combined RC/diamond drill program on the Farellon property. The program was designed to continue to expand on the results of the 2009 drill program, as well as to continue confirming historical results along the strike. During this program we completed 11 drillholes for a total of 2,233m with the goal not only of better defining structural controls on mineralization but to examine the continuity of mineralization along strike and at depth. The target of the program was to outline a 700m mineralized strike length down to 200m vertical depth with approximate 75m intercept spacing, and to infill gaps 300m further to the North to increase intercepts to 150 m spacing.

Many of the existing intercepts in this area were from the 1996/97 drill program where no geological information can be located for these drill holes.  By infilling the area with drilling at 75 meter pierce points the aim was to increase confidence in the continuity and increase knowledge of the nature and structural controls on mineralization to aid further exploration planning. 2011 drill results confirmed that mineralization is still present downdip of past drilling intercepts and still open at depth. Infill drilling continued to confirm the continuity of the mineralization and aided in the development of a 3D model that will be used for any future drill planning.

2011 drilling confirmed the overall regional shear structural controls on mineralization occurring within the oblique fault contact between overlying Paleozoic Metasediments and underlying Jurassic intermediate intrusives. Supergene mineralization seems to occur within local faults not immediately within the lithological fault contact – possibly fault splays emanating off the main regional structure. In the 2011 drillholes, supergene copper-gold mineralization was intersected 50-150m downhole with abundant carbonate and iron oxide precipitation.

Hypogene mineralization occurred below 150m hosted in quartz and carbonate veins which appear closer to the main shear fault zone contact. Approximately within 20m downhole of intersected hypogene mineralized veins the lithological contact was encountered, passing through to the underlying intrusive package. The 2011 drill program was generally positive in better defining structural controls on mineralization and proving continuity of mineralization along strike and at depth. However, more drilling is needed to continue to expand on the mineralized zone along strike and at depth, and prove up infill targets for an initial resource estimation.

In spring of 2012 we commissioned Micon to complete a second 43-101 technical report. Micon now recommends that we conduct a much larger phase of exploration consisting of 5,000 meters of diamond drilling and 10,000 meters of RC drilling, and geophysical surveys and geological mapping. A geophysics survey using both magnetics and induced polarization will help to identify further mineralized structures on the property that may not have been noticed in the historic mapping. A phase two drill program would be at defined spacing to outline the continuity of mineralization leading to an initial resource estimation.  The depth of the drilling would be dependent on the results of the phase one drilling program. The estimated cost of this phase is $1.9 million.

QA/QC, sampling procedures and analytical methods. Samples were taken at intervals between 0.5 and 2 metres. Sampling started at the collar of the hole and proceeded to the toe or bottom of the drill hole.  Samples were taken at two metre intervals outside the previously identified main zone of interest.  Through the main zone of interest samples were taken at one metre intervals.   Generally, the sample recovery was good to excellent for the 2011 drilling program. Table 6 above summarizes significant assay results.  They are reported as drill lengths as we have not established the width of the mineralized zone.

Our quality assurance, quality control (QA/QC) protocol consists of the addition of standards, blanks and laboratory duplicates to the sample stream.  We inserted these into the sample series using the same number sequence as the samples themselves.  One of the QA/QC check samples is inserted every 25 samples and it alternates between standards, blanks and laboratory duplicates.  

Spring 2012 mapping program: In April of 2012 we completed a detailed mapping, prospecting and rock sampling program over the Farellon Property.  This program was designed to extend the known mineralized zone to the north and the south and to identify the best potential to expand on the known mineralized zone.  As a result of the mapping program, new ground was acquired at public auction in August 2012 to cover the strike extent of the mineralized veins.

Perth Property

On March 10, 2011, we purchased for $35,000 a group of 12 claims (the “Perth”) as described in Table 7 and illustrated in Figure 4.

Figure 4. The Perth property

The Perth property is adjacent to the west side of the historic Carrizal Alto mine and lies approximately 3.5 kilometers north of our Farellon project. It is a 45 minute drive from Vallenar city, with major road access, power and water supply close by. The project lies on a similar geologic contact as the Farellon and Carrizal Alto properties.

Location and means of access. The Perth property is centered about 308,750 east and 6,895,000 south UTM PSAD56 Zone 19 approximately 75 km northwest of the city of Vallenar with the highest point at approximately 925 meters above sea level.  The property is accessible by road from Vallenar. The Perth Property is accessed by taking the Pan American Highway north from Vallenar for 20 kilometres, then turning west onto the road to Canto del Agua a distance of 35 kilometres. Then take the Cardones Canyon road for 15 kilometres, turn southwest towards Cerro Cachina Grande along a secondary gravel road for 14 kilometres to the property.

Exploration history.  Exploration programs on the Perth property have historically been limited to surface sampling and mapping programs completed in 2007 and 2008. Significant results from historic channel samples across the veins are shown in Table 8. Numerous artisanal mine workings on the property have previously been exploited for both copper and gold; however, no records of grade or tonnage can be located.

Geology. The Perth property overlies the contact between Paleozoic metamorphic sediments and a Cretaceous tonalitic batholith. A swarm of north northeast trending fault related copper gold bearing quartz veins crosscuts the property. Surface mapping and sampling records show twelve veins identified so far on the south end of the property. The veins average two metres wide but have been measured up to six metres wide.

In spring of 2011 we completed a reconnaissance mapping and sampling program on the Perth property.  Geological mapping during the program identified four major areas where mineralization in veins appear to be concentrated.  Sampling consisted of 129 reconnaissance samples taken of vein material where veins outcropped at surface.  Significant results are summarized in Table 9 below.

Memorandum of Understanding with Geoactiva Spa.

On February 11, 2013, we entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with Geoactiva Spa. The MOU confirmed  Geoactiva’s  intention to acquire 100% of the Perth mineral claims  through the execution of a mining option purchase agreement (the “Option Agreement”). Terms of the MOU are summarized below:

1. Option price. In order to maintain the option to purchase and to acquire the Perth property, Geoactiva must pay us the total amount of $1,000,000 USD in the following instalments:

	Payment Price US$
Upon execution of Option Agreement (“Execution date”)		37,500
6 months after Execution date		37,500
12 months after Execution date		50,000
18 months after Execution date		50,000
24 months after Execution date		100,000
30 months after Execution date		100,000
36 months after Execution date		125,000
42 months after Execution date		250,000
48 months after Execution date		250,000
Total		1,000,000

16

All of the above payments shall be made only if Geoactiva wishes to keep the Option Agreement in force and finally to exercise the option to purchase.

Upon exercise of the Option Agreement and once the commercial production begins, Geoactiva will pay us NSR of 1.5% from the sale of gold, copper, and cobalt extracted from the Perth property. At any time after the exercise of the Option Agreement and Geoactiva’s fulfilment of the investment commitment of $3,500,000 in exploration expenditure, Geoactiva may purchase 100% NSR as follows:

Gold: paying US $5 per inferred ounce of gold, according to the definition of Inferred Mineral Resource in the CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves

Copper: US $0.005 per inferred ounce of copper, according to the definition of Inferred Mineral Resource in the CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves

Cobalt: If Geoactiva acquires the NSR with respect to gold, copper, or both, the NSR relating to cobalt will be terminated

Upon execution of the Option Agreement, Geoactiva will incur exploration expenditures, as follows:

	US$
Within 12 months from execution date		500,000
12-24 months from execution date		1,000,000
24-36 months from execution date		1,000,000
36-48 months from execution date		1,000,000
Total		3,500,000

If Geoactiva fails to incur the required exploration expenditures during a specific period it may fulfill its obligations by paying us the outstanding amount in cash.

2. Due diligence. Geoactiva had 60 days (“Due Diligence Period”) from February 11, 2013, to conduct the legal, technical, and other background review of the Perth property. On April 5, 2013, we extended the Due Diligence Period until May 11, 2013. At any time during the Due Diligence Period, Geoactiva may communicate in writing of its decision to execute the Option Agreement. During the Due Diligence period and until the execution of the Option Agreement, we agreed to provide exclusivity rights to Geoactiva and refrain from any negotiations with third parties.

Mateo Property

We have assembled a group of claims: the Che Uno and Che Dos, the Margarita, and the Irene Uno and Irene Dos mining claims, and the Mateo exploration claims as described in Table 10 and illustrated in Figure 6.  The Mateo exploration claims overlap the Che, Margarita and Irene claims to secure the areas around the claims. Some of them may overlap others’ prior claims. We will acquire rights to these overlapped prior claims only if the owners forfeit their rights, and if we want the property. We acquired all of these claims for the same geological reasons and consider them one property, which we call the Mateo property.

Table 10: Mateo property

Figure 6: Mateo property

che uno and che dos claims

On October 10, 2008 Minera Farellon Limitada granted us the option to purchase the Che Uno and Dos claims. The Che claims cover 76 hectares centered about 339,002 east and 6,838,450 south UTM PSAD56 Zone 19. They are in the northwest corner of the Mateo property.  On April 12, 2011 we completed the acquisition of the Che claims by paying approximately $20,000 to Minera Farellon. 

18

We continue to owe a royalty equal to 1% of the net proceeds that we receive from the processor to a maximum of $100,000 with no monthly minimum when we start exploiting the minerals we extract from the claim.   We have not yet exploited the claim.

margarita claim

We bought the Margarita mining claim on November 27, 2008 through a public auction for a total of $15,984.  The Margarita claim covers 56 hectares centered around 340,353 east and 6,838,347 south UTM PSAD56 Zone 19 located within the northeast corner of the Mateo claim.

 irene uno and irene dos claims

On September 7, 2010, we entered into a purchase agreement with Minera Farellon to buy the Irene Uno and Irene Dos mining claims. Under the terms of the agreement, as amended, we paid $45,174 (equivalent of 21 million Chilean pesos) on May 10, 2011 to exercise the option and purchase the Irene claims.  The Irene claims cover 60 hectares centered about 341,002 east and 6,838,101 south UTM PSAD56 Zone 19, are located within the northeast corner of the Mateo property, and share their western border with the Margarita claim.

mateo claims

The Mateo claims consist of eight mensura in process — Mateo 1 through 3, 9,10, and 12 through 14, and two pedimentos — Mateo 4 and 5, covering 2,220 hectares, which we staked between November 2008 and November 2011. The claims are centered about 337,675 east and 6,837,600 south UTM PSAD56 Zone 19 and cover a five-kilometer strike length of intensely altered volcanics with significant massive sulphide mineralization. 

Location and means of access. The Mateo property is centered about 337,675 east and 6,837,600 south UTM PSAD56 Zone 19 approximately 10 kilometers east of Vallenar with the highest point at approximately 1,050 meters above sea level.  A well-used road leads from the city of Vallenar and crosses through the middle of the west half of the properties and along the southern border of the east half of the properties.  Many unmarked dirt roads in the area provide reliable access to most areas of Mateo.

Description. The Mateo property is a copper-gold-silver project that lies in the Candelaria IOCG belt in the Chilean Coastal Cordillera.  The Mateo property has undergone limited modern exploration including surface and underground RC drilling and artisanal mining on three separate mine sites, the Irene, Margarita and Santa Theresa mines.  We have reviewed all available records of work completed to date, including some records of the mining activity. Our interpretation of the work completed to date indicates the potential for an economic ore body in mineralized mantos and skarn-style mineralization associated with IOCG deposits.  

Exploration history. Historical work includes several drill programs completed by different Chilean private and public companies.  Records exist from eight drillholes completed in 1994 on the Irene mine and include two full reports written by ENAMI (the Chilean national mining company) with interpretation of mineralization and recommendations for further exploration and mining work.

The Irene mine was investigated by ENAMI in 1994.  Work completed during this time included surface RC drilling, including 490 meters in four RC drillholes, and underground diamond drilling, including 220 meters in four drillholes.  We obtained ENAMI’s reports of mining activities from 1994 through 1997.  Approximately 11,875 tonnes of rock were mined in that time averaging 4.3% copper, 61.9 grams per tonne silver, and 1.01 grams per tonne gold.  During the period from June 2009 to December 2010 the vendor of the Irene, Minera Farellon, conducted small scale mining activities on a different area of the Irene claims and mined 1,705 tonnes grading 1.39% Cu, 1.39g/t Ag, 0.29g/t Au in sulphides and 1,477 tonnes grading 1.98% Cu in oxides.  The difference in grade between the historic work and the recent work is not an indication that further high grade material will not be found on the Mateo property and further modeling and exploration work needs to be completed to determine the best place to drill.

19

A private Chilean company, Minera Taurus, drilled 16 RC holes on the east end of the Irene claim, but we have no record from this drilling. An unknown company built a portal 250 meters long and approximately three meters wide by three meters high. The portal leads to three mined-out chimneys connected to the surface providing ventilation channels.  On a recent property visit with ENAMI’s geologists, we found an extension of the mineralized zone at the base of the tunnel below showing the potential for mineral resources.

Geology. Geologically, the Mateo property is located within the brittle-ductile north-south-trending Atacama Fault System that is known to host many of the major deposits in the Candelaria IOCG belt.  Known mineralization is hosted in an andesitic volcaniclastic sequence assigned to the Bandurrias Formation. Widespread iron oxide and potassic alteration indicates an IOCG mineralizing system further supported by significant amounts of economic grade mineralization.

Exploration (2011).  During August through October 2011 we carried out an in-depth geological mapping and sampling program on the Mateo property.  The Mateo property has very diverse mineralization styles through the property which includes mantos, veins, breccias and porphyries with significant gold and copper. A total of 138 reconnaissance samples were collected over the property. The highest assay values returned from reconnaissance samples were 21g/t Au and 10.3% Cu but more common values were between 1-3g/t Au and 1-3% Cu. Table 11 summarizes the significant assay results.

2011 Ground Magnetic Survey

During September 2011, we engaged Quantec International Project Services Ltd. to complete a ground magnetic survey on the Mateo Property. The ground magnetic survey consisted of 70 survey lines with an EW orientation, and two control lines with a NS orientation. The survey lines were separated by 100m, and data was collected at 10m intervals on all lines. A total of 218.49km of magnetic data was collected. The survey outlined areas of high and low magnetic response. Areas of high magnetic response indicated the presence of elevated levels of magnetic minerals such as magnetite, pyrotite and hematite whereas areas of low magnetic response may be caused by alteration processes such as magnetite destruction or may simply indicate rock types that never had magnetic minerals.

21

This ground magnetic survey demarcated the northern and western extent with a large, high magnetic anomaly with a southwest to northeast orientation. This magnetic high may correlate with the Jilguero Intermediate Intrusive formation which is only partially exposed on the property and underlies the Jurassic Punta Del Cobre volcanics, and mixed sedimentary sequence.

Two possible correlations with geology are drawn when looking at the magnetic geophysical response. Firstly, all artisanal mines, reconnaissance samples and documented surface mineralization are exposed on the Western edge of the magnetic high in an area where magnetic high-low gradients are greatest transitioning from high to low. Secondly, magnetic highs appear to persist away from the main magnetic high body in a NW direction. Although these persisting magnetic highs are only small stringers in appearance they possibly correlate to dominant NW trending faults on the property that are often mineralized. Visual correlations between magnetic high/low contrasts and geology seem strong enough to suggest further exploration including sampling and drilling along the steepest gradient of magnetic high/low dropoff.

veta negra (former property)

During June and July 2011 we carried out a preliminary exploration program on our former Veta Negra property. As a result of the program we discovered a defined and continuous copper mineralized manto continuing on from the main manto previously known to exist. At the conclusion of this program three mantos were traced on surface, one manto, the East Manto, was traced for 1.9km on surface before becoming buried by surface rock, a second manto, the West Manto, was traced for a one kilometer strike length and a third manto, the Far West Manto, was traced for a 500 metre strike length.

After reviewing exploration results and considering the acquisition costs we decided to terminate the active development of this property, writing off $81,233 in acquisition costs. However, we are still considering certain sections of Veta Negra as part of our generative claims as described below.

Generative claims

As an exploration company, from time to time we will stake, purchase or option claims to allow ourselves the time and access to fully consider the geological potential of the claims. This allows us to generate new properties in areas that have not been explored. We have conducted groundwork on numerous generative claims of interest to us in the areas of our active properties. We have acquired several of these claims, have options to acquire others, and have staked claims in the same areas. We continue to compile data on and review other claims and discuss terms with various owners.

Abandoned claims

During the year ended January 31, 2013, we wrote off the former Veta Negra property, abandoned several claims within the Farellon property and wrote off certain generative claims, which resulted in a write off of  acquisition costs  of $83,159.

During the year ended January 31, 2012, we wrote off certain mineral claims with a paid cost of $15,471 and capitalized non-cash expenditures of $2,433 as we decided not to pursue exploration of the claims.

Competition

The mineral exploration business is an extremely competitive industry.  We are competing with many other exploration companies looking for minerals.  We are one of the smallest exploration companies and a very small participant in the mineral exploration business.  Being a junior mineral exploration company, we compete with other similar companies for financing and joint venture partners, and for resources such as professional geologists, camp staff, helicopters and mineral exploration contractors and supplies.  We do not represent a competitive presence in the industry.

Raw materials

The raw materials for our exploration programs include camp equipment, hand exploration tools, sample bags, first aid supplies, groceries and propane.  All of these types of materials are readily available from a variety of local suppliers.

Dependence on major customers

We have no customers.  Our first customer likely will be ENAMI, which refines and smelts copper from the ore that it buys from Chile’s small- and medium-scale miners.  ENAMI is located in Vallenar.  We could also sell our ore to the Dos Amigos heap leach facility located approximately fifty kilometers south of Vallenar in Domeyko. 

Patents/Trademarks/Licenses/Franchises/Concessions/Royalty Agreements/Labor Contracts

We have no intellectual property such as patents or trademarks, and, other than the royalties that we must pay if we begin to exploit our Chilean properties, no royalty agreements or labor contracts.  

Government controls and regulations

We are not required to obtain permits or submit operational plans in order to conduct exploration on our properties.  The mining business, however, is subject to various levels of government controls and regulations, which are supplemented and revised from time to time.  We cannot predict what additional legislation or revisions might be proposed that could affect our business or when any proposals, if enacted, might become effective.  Such changes, however, could require more operating capital and expenditures and could prevent or delay some of our operations.

The various levels of government controls and regulations address, among other things, the environmental impact of mining and mineral processing operations.  For mining and processing, legislation and regulations in various jurisdictions establish performance standards, air and water quality emission standards and other design or operational requirements for various components of operations, including health and safety standards.  Legislation and regulations also establish requirements for decommissioning, reclaiming and rehabilitating mining properties following the cessation of operations, and may require that some former mining properties be managed for long periods of time. As we are not mining or processing, and are unlikely to for some years, we have not investigated these regulations.

None of the exploration work that we have completed to date requires an environmental permit. We must repair any damage done to the land during exploration. Some of our claims are within the boundaries of a national park. According to the Mining Code of Chile, we will have to get written authorization from the government to mine or complete any exploration work within the park boundaries. We submitted an application to the government in December 2011 to explore within the park boundaries.  We received a response to our application requesting we complete an environmental study on the area we are applying to work in.  As part of this study we will have to hire an environmental consultant to investigate if any significant archeological remains exist in the area we intend to work in. Mapping and prospecting work completed north of the park boundary on the Farellon property has shown potential to expand the mineralized zone to the north where exploitation would not fall within the park boundaries.  The Company has decided to focus exploration north of the park boundary to determine the potential of the entire mineralized area to host an economic deposit before pursuing the application to work within the park boundary any further.

23

If our operations in Chile become profitable, any earnings that we remit abroad will be subject to Chilean withholding tax.

We believe that we are in substantial compliance with all material government controls and regulations at each of our mineral claims.

Costs and effects of compliance with environmental laws

We have incurred no costs to date for compliance with environmental laws for our exploration programs on any of our claims.

Expenditures on research and development

We have incurred no research or development costs since our inception on January 10, 2005.

Number of total employees and number of full-time employees

Red Metal does not have any employees. Caitlin Jeffs, Michael Thompson, and John da Costa, who are directors and officers, provide their services to the company as independent consultants.  Polymet retains the services of Kevin Mitchell, who is Polymet’s legal representative and manager in Chile, and two administrative employees. We contract for the services of geologists, prospectors and other consultants as we require them to conduct our exploration programs.

ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS

In addition to the factors discussed elsewhere in this annual report, the following risks and uncertainties could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.  Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations and financial condition.

During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 we earned no significant revenue while our operating expenses totalled $1,108,226 and $2,928,188, respectively. If we do not find sources of financing as and when we need them, we may be required to cease our operations.

Mineral exploration and development are very expensive.  During the fiscal year that ended on January 31, 2013, we earned $7,804 in geological consulting revenue while our operating expenses totalled $1,108,226. During the fiscal year that ended on January 31, 2012, we earned no royalty revenue while our operating expenses totalled $2,928,188. This resulted in a total accumulated loss of $7,085,429 since inception. As of January 31, 2013 we had cash of $3,151.  Since inception, we have sold our securities and borrowed money to fund our operations.  Our ability to continue our operations, including exploring and developing our properties, will depend on our ability to generate operating revenue, obtain additional financing, or enter into joint venture agreements.  Until we earn enough revenue to support our operations, which may never happen, we will continue to be dependent on loans and sales of our equity or debt securities to continue our development and exploration activities.  If we do not find sources of financing as and when we need them, we may be required to severely curtail, or even to cease, our operations.

Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern; as a result we could have difficulty finding additional financing.

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern.   Except for approximately $23,500 of royalty and consulting income, we have not generated any revenue since inception and have accumulated losses.  As a result, our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Our ability to continue our operations depends on our ability to complete equity or debt financings as we need capital or generate profitable operations.  Such financings may not be available or may not be available on reasonable terms.  Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that could result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

24

Unfavorable economic conditions have had a material adverse effect on us since raising capital to continue our operations is more difficult.

The financial crisis which began in 2007 and continues today has had an adverse impact on our business and financial position, since we must rely on sales of our securities and loans to continue our operations.  We have found that there is less capital available to us and less appetite for risk by investors.  Furthermore, we have found that locating other mineral exploration companies with available funds who are willing to engage in risky ventures such as the exploration of our properties has become very difficult since the economic downturn.  If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may not be able to develop our properties or continue our operations.

Our business was formed in January 2005 and our operations, to date, have earned only minimal revenues.  Due to the high costs of acquiring and exploring claims, we may never be profitable.  We expect to continue to incur operating losses during the next 12 months.

We were incorporated on January 10, 2005, and to date have been involved primarily in organizational activities, acquiring and exploring mineral claims and obtaining financing.  We have earned minimal revenues and we are not profitable.  Whether we will be successful as a mining company must be considered in light of the costs, difficulties, complications and delays associated with our proposed exploration programs.  These potential problems include, but are not limited to, finding claims with mineral deposits that can be cost-effectively mined, the costs associated with acquiring the properties and the unavailability of human or equipment resources.  We have a short history and have had no more than minimal operations until April 25, 2008 when we acquired the mining claims known as Farellon Alto 1 – 8 in Chile.  We cannot assure you that we will ever generate significant revenue from our operations or realize a profit.  We expect to continue to incur operating losses during the next 12 months.

We owe approximately $1.64 million to related parties.  It is our intention to issue shares of our common stock to pay a portion of this debt, which will result in substantial dilution to our existing shareholders.

As of January 31, 2013, we owed approximately $1.64 million to related parties for loans and for services rendered to us.  We do not have the cash resources to pay this debt therefore we are planning to partially pay these individuals by issuing shares of our common stock to them.  Because the market value of our common stock is very low, the number of shares that we issue will be significant and will result in substantial dilution to our current shareholders in the book value of their common stock.

If we register the shares of common stock we issue to pay part of our related party debt, the price of our common stock could decline.

If we register the common stock we issue as a payment for part of our related party debt, the shares could be sold without restriction, which could have the effect of driving down the price of our common stock in the market.

Our joint development and operating arrangements may not be successful.

We have in the past, and may in the future, enter into joint venture arrangements in order to share the risks and costs of developing and operating properties. In a typical joint venture arrangement, the partners own a proportionate share of the assets, are entitled to indemnification from each other and are only responsible for any future liabilities in proportion to their interests in the joint venture. If a party fails to perform its obligations under a joint venture agreement, we could incur liabilities and losses in excess of our pro-rata share of the joint venture.  We make investments in exploration and development projects that may have to be written off in the event we do not proceed to a commercially viable mining operation.

25

Our joint venture agreements may not always be successful.  For example, on March 14, 2011, our subsidiary, Minera Polymet, granted to Revonergy Inc. the right to earn a 50% joint venture interest in the Perth property.  However, Revonergy decided not to exercise that right and the agreement has been terminated.

In some instances members of the board of directors or an officer may be liable for losses incurred by holders of our common stock.  If a shareholder were to prevail in such an action in the U.S., it may be difficult for the shareholder to enforce the judgment against any of our directors or officers, who are not U.S. residents.

In certain instances, such as trading securities based on material non-public information, a director or officer may incur liability to shareholders for losses sustained by the shareholders as a result of the director’s or officer’s illegal or negligent activity.  However, all of our directors and officers live and maintain a substantial portion of their assets outside the U.S.  As a result it may be difficult or impossible to effect service of process within the U.S. upon these directors and officers or to enforce in the courts any judgment obtained here against them predicated upon any civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws.

Foreign courts may not entertain original actions predicated solely upon U.S. federal securities laws against these directors or officers and judgments predicated upon any civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws may not be directly enforceable in foreign countries.

As a result of the foregoing, it may be difficult or impossible for a shareholder to recover from any of these directors or officers if, in fact, the shareholder is damaged as a result of the negligent or illegal activity of an officer or director.

Mineral exploration is highly speculative and risky; we might not find mineral deposits that can be extracted cost effectively on our claims.

Exploration for mineral deposits is a speculative venture involving substantial risk.  Problems such as unusual and unexpected rock formations often result in unsuccessful exploration efforts.  We cannot assure you that our claims contain mineral deposits that can be extracted cost effectively.

Mineral exploration is hazardous.  We could incur liability or damages as we conduct our business due to the dangers inherent in mineral exploration.

The search for minerals is hazardous.  We could become liable for hazards such as pollution, cave-ins and other hazards against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure.  We have no insurance for these kinds of hazards, nor do we expect to get such insurance for the foreseeable future.  If we were to suffer from such a hazard, the costs of rectifying it could exceed our asset value and require that we liquidate our assets.

We have no known mineral reserves and if we cannot find any, we may have to cease operations.

It is unknown whether our properties contain viable mineral reserves.  If we do not find a viable mineral reserve, or if we cannot exploit the mineral reserve, either because we do not have the money to do it or because it will not be economically feasible to do it, we may have to cease operations and you may lose your investment.  Mineral exploration is a highly speculative endeavor.  It involves many risks and is often non-productive.  Even if mineral reserves are discovered on our properties, our production capabilities will be subject to further risks and uncertainties including:

(i)	Costs of bringing the property into production including exploration work, preparation of production feasibility studies, and construction of production facilities, all of which we have not budgeted for;
(ii)	Availability and costs of financing;
(iii)	Ongoing costs of production; and
(iv)	Environmental compliance regulations and restraints.

26

In the future we may be required to comply with government regulations affecting mineral exploration and exploitation, which could adversely affect our business, the results of our operations and our financial condition.

The mining business is subject to various levels of government control and regulation, which are supplemented and revised from time to time.  We cannot predict what legislation or revisions might be proposed that could affect our business or when any such proposals, if enacted, might become effective.  Our exploration activities are subject to laws and regulations governing worker safety, and, if we explore within the national park that is part of our Farellon property, protection of endangered and other special status species as well as protection of significant archeological remains, if there are any, will likely require compliance with additional laws and regulations.   The cost of complying with these regulations has not been burdensome to date, but if we mine our properties and process more than 5,000 tonnes of ore monthly, we will be required to submit an environmental impact study for review and approval by the federal environmental agency.  We anticipate that the cost of such a study will be significant.  If the study were to show too great an adverse impact on the environment, we might be unable to develop the property or we might have to engage in expensive remedial measures during or after developing the property, which could make production unprofitable.  This requirement could materially adversely affect our business, the results of our operations and our financial condition if we were to proceed to mine a property or process ore on the property.  We have no immediate or intermediate plans to process ore on any of our properties.

If we do not comply with applicable environmental and health and safety laws and regulations, we could be fined, enjoined from continuing our operations, and suffer other penalties.  Although we make every attempt to comply with these laws and regulations, we cannot assure you that we have fully complied or will always fully comply with them.

We might not be able to market any minerals that we find on our mineral claims due to market factors that are beyond our control.

Even if we discover minerals that can be extracted cost-effectively, we may not be able to find a ready market for our minerals.  Many factors beyond our control affect the marketability of minerals.  These factors include market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets and processing equipment, government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting minerals and environmental protection.  We cannot accurately predict the effect of these factors, but any combination of these factors could result in an inadequate return on invested capital.

We are not certain that we can successfully compete in the mineral exploration business.  We do not represent a significant presence in this industry.

The mineral exploration business is an extremely competitive industry.  We are competing with many other exploration companies looking for minerals.  We are one of the smallest exploration companies and we do not represent a significant presence in the mineral exploration business.  Being a junior mineral exploration company, we compete with other similar companies for financing and joint venture partners, and for resources such as professional geologists, camp staff, helicopters and mineral exploration contractors and supplies.  We may not have the means to compete successfully for these resources.

We conduct operations in a foreign jurisdiction, and are subject to certain risks that may limit or disrupt our business operations.

Our head office is in Canada and our mining operations are in Chile.  Mining investments are subject to the risks normally associated with the conduct of any business in foreign countries including uncertain political and economic environments; wars, terrorism and civil disturbances; changes in laws or policies, including those relating to imports, exports, duties and currency; cancellation or renegotiation of contracts; royalty and tax increases or other claims by government entities, including retroactive claims; risk of expropriation and nationalization; delays in obtaining or the inability to obtain or maintain necessary governmental permits; currency fluctuations; restrictions on the ability of local operating companies to sell gold, copper or other minerals offshore for U.S. dollars, and on the ability of such companies to hold U.S. dollars or other foreign currencies in offshore bank accounts; import and export regulations, including restrictions on the export of gold, copper or other minerals; limitations on the repatriation of earnings; and increased financing costs.

27

These risks could limit or disrupt our exploration programs, cause us to lose our interests in our mineral claims, restrict the movement of funds, cause us to spend more than we expected, deprive us of contract rights or result in our operations being nationalized or expropriated without fair compensation, and could materially adversely affect our financial position or the results of our operations.  If a dispute arises from our activities in Chile, we could be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of courts outside North America, which could adversely affect the outcome of the dispute.

While we take the steps we believe are necessary to maintain legal ownership of our claims, title to mineral claims may be invalidated for a number of reasons, including errors in the transfer history or our acquisition of a claim we believed, after appropriate due diligence investigation, to be valid, but in fact, wasn’t.  If ownership of our claims was ultimately determined to be invalid, our business and prospects would likely be materially and adversely affected.

Our ability to realize a return on our investment in mineral claims depends upon whether we maintain the legal ownership of the claims.  Title to mineral claims involves risks inherent in the process of determining the validity of claims and the ambiguous transfer history characteristic of many mineral claims.  We take a number of steps to protect the legal ownership of our claims, including having our contracts and deeds notarized, recording these documents with the registry of mines and publishing them in the mining bulletin.  We also review the mining bulletin regularly to determine whether other parties have staked claims over our ground.  However, none of these steps guarantees that another party could not challenge our right to a claim.  Any such challenge could be costly to defend and, if we lost our claim, our business and prospects would likely be materially and adversely affected.

We cannot guarantee that any of our pedimento claims will convert to mensura claims.

Some of our exploration claims (pedimentos) are still in the registration process.  We cannot guarantee that any of our pedimento claims will convert to mining claims (mensuras).  Some of our pedimentos may have been staked over other owners’ claims, as permitted by the Chilean mining code.  The pedimento with the earliest filing date takes precedence providing the claim holder maintains its claim in accordance with the mining code and the applicable regulations.  Our pedimento rights in these claims will not crystallize unless the owners of the underlying claims fail to pay their taxes or otherwise forfeit their interests in their claims.  We will exercise any right that we acquire through forfeiture only if the ground remains of interest to us.

We sometimes hold a significant portion of our cash in United States dollars, which could weaken our purchasing power in other currencies and limit our ability to conduct our exploration programs.

Currency fluctuations could affect the costs of our operations and affect our operating results and cash flows.  Gold and copper are sold throughout the world based principally on the U.S. dollar price, but most of our operating expenses are incurred in local currencies, such as the Canadian dollar and the Chilean peso.  The appreciation of other currencies against the U.S. dollar can increase the costs of our operations.

We sometimes hold a significant portion of our cash in U.S. dollars.  Currency exchange rate fluctuations can result in conversion gains and losses and diminish the value of our U.S. dollars.  If the U.S. dollar declined significantly against the Canadian dollar or the Chilean peso, our U.S.-dollar purchasing power in Canadian dollars and Chilean pesos would also significantly decline and that could make it more difficult to conduct our business operations.  We have not entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations.

28

Because our directors are not independent they can make and control corporate decisions that may be disadvantageous to other common shareholders.

Our securities are not listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on an inter-dealer quotation system that requires that directors be independent.  Using the definition of “independent” in Rule 5605 of Nasdaq’s Rules, we have determined that none of our directors are independent. Our directors 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.  They also have the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The interests of our directors may differ from the interests of the other stockholders and thus result in corporate decisions that are disadvantageous to other shareholders.

We do not expect to declare or pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and have no plans to do so in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain any earnings to develop, carry on, and expand our business.

 “Penny stock” rules may make buying or selling our common stock difficult, and severely limit its marketability and liquidity.

Because our securities are considered a penny stock, shareholders will be more limited in their ability to sell their shares. The SEC has 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 quotation system. Because our securities constitute “penny stocks” within the meaning of the rules, the rules apply to us and to our securities. The rules may further affect the ability of owners of shares to sell our securities in any market that might develop for them. As long as the trading price of our common shares is less than $5.00 per share, the common shares will be subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that:

· contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;

· 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 to such duties or other requirements of securities laws;

· 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;

· contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;

· defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and

· contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) 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 shares; and (d) a monthly account statement 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 suitably statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our shares.

ITEM 6:  SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

As a smaller reporting company we are not required to provide this information.

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

Overview

Red Metal is a mineral exploration company engaged in locating, and eventually developing, mineral resources in Chile. Our business strategy is to identify, acquire and explore prospective mineral claims with a view to either developing them ourselves or, more likely, finding a joint venture partner with the mining experience and financial means to undertake the development. All of our claims are in the Candelaria IOCG belt in the Chilean Coastal Cordillera.

We have generated only minimal revenue from operations and are dependent upon the equity markets for our working capital. Despite the current market volatility, we are optimistic that we can raise equity capital under these market conditions. We completed an offering of 6,723,333 units on April 7, 2011 at $0.30 per unit. Each unit consisted of one share of our common stock and one warrant for the purchase of one share of common stock exercisable at $0.50 per share for two years.  We have since reduced the exercise price of the warrants to $0.10 per share and extended the term to April 7, 2014.  We realized net cash proceeds of $1,862,462 from this offering and the payment of $130,000 in debt.

On September 2, 2011, we adopted the Red Metal Resources Ltd. 2011 Equity Incentive Plan and reserved 1,600,000 shares of our common stock for awards under the Plan. On the same day we issued options to purchase 1,040,000 shares of our common stock to directors, officers, employees and consultants who provide services to Red Metal.  The options have an exercise price of $0.50 per share and a term of 2 years.

31

Consistent with our historical practices, we continue to monitor our costs in Chile by reviewing our mineral claims to determine whether they possess the geological indicators to economically justify the capital to maintain or explore them. Currently, we have three employees in Chile and engage part time assistants during our exploration programs. Most of our support — such as vehicles, office and equipment — is supplied under short-term contracts. The only long-term commitments that we have are for royalty payments on two of our mineral claims – Farellon and Che. These royalties are payable once exploitation begins.

Please refer to the section ‘Unproved Mineral Properties’ under Item 1 of this report for a detailed description of our unproved mineral assets and associated exploration campaigns.

The cost and timing of all planned exploration programs are subject to the availability of qualified mining personnel, such as consulting geologists and geo-technicians, and drillers and drilling equipment. Although Chile has a well-trained and qualified mining workforce from which to draw and few early-stage companies such as Red Metal are competing for the available resources, if we are unable to find the personnel and equipment that we need when we need them and at the prices that we have estimated today, we might have to revise or postpone our plans.

As of January 31, 2013 we owed approximately $1.64 million to related parties for loans and services that have been provided to us.  We do not have the funds to pay this debt therefore we are planning to partially pay the debt with shares of our common stock.  We anticipate that, because of the low price of our common stock, we will issue a substantial number of shares for this purpose, although no final terms have been agreed upon by the company and these individuals.  The issuance of these shares will likely result in substantial dilution to the book value of our common stock held by our existing shareholders.  Furthermore, if we were to register these shares, they could be sold without restriction, which could have the effect of driving down the price of our common stock in the market.

During the quarters ended July 31, 2011, October 31, 2011, and January 31, 2012, our operating expenses were mainly associated with the drilling program on the Farellon property and exploration campaigns on other properties, including associated travel and geological consulting expenses incurred between May and September 2011, and subsequent data analysis. During the quarter ended October 31, 2011, we granted 1,040,000 stock options to certain directors, employees, and consultants that resulted in a non-cash expense of $527,318 (after adjustment taken on January 31, 2012), increasing our net loss. During the quarter ended January 31, 2012, we experienced higher legal costs as we explored the possibility of listing our shares on the TSX Venture Exchange. During the quarter ended April 30, 2012, we prepared an updated NI 43-101 report on our Farellon property, which resulted in increased exploration expenses, and we continued with the due diligence review related to listing our common stock on the TSX Venture Exchange, which resulted in increased professional and regulatory fees. During the quarter ended July 31, 2012, we kept our exploration and due diligence activities at a moderate level, which resulted in a decrease in our net loss for the quarter. During the quarters ended October 31, 2012 and January 31, 2013, we continued maintaining our operations at a lower level; excluding the written down unproved mineral claims, our net loss for the quarter ended October 31, 2012 was $174,345; net loss for the quarter ended January 31, 2013 amounted to $155,453.

Net operating expenses	$	1,108,226		$	2,928,188	$	(1,819,962	)

Operating expenses. Our operating expenses decreased by $1,819,962, or 62%, from $2,928,188 for the year ended January 31, 2012 to $1,108,226 for the year ended January 31, 2013. 

The most significant year-to-date changes were:

• During the year ended January 31, 2012, we carried out an active drilling program on our Farellon property and accomplished exploration campaigns on our Mateo and Veta Negra properties, which resulted in $1,156,868 in mineral exploration expenses. During the year ended January 31, 2013, we maintained our exploration activities at a lower level that resulted in a decrease of $925,016 or 80% in mineral exploration expenses.

• Due to the reduction in our mineral exploration activities during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013, we significantly decreased our advertising and travel budget which resulted in decreases of $162,285 or 80% and $63,791 or 66% in advertising and promotion, and travel and entertainment expenses, respectively.

• During the year ended January 31, 2012, we completed a private equity financing and prepared and filed a registration statement on form S-1, which resulted in professional and legal fees of $225,858. During the year ended January 31, 2013, we did not incur similar expenses, which resulted in a decrease in our professional and legal fees of $120,390, or 53%.

• During the year ended January 31, 2013, we restructured our accounting and financial advisory operations which resulted in a reduction of $86,846 or 27% in our consulting expenses.

• During the year ended January 31, 2013, we wrote down $83,159 in mineral property acquisition costs after we determined the costs of maintaining our Veta Negra property exceeded its fair value. The property consisted of the Veta Negra, Exon and Pibe mining claims and several smaller exploration claims. During the year ended January 31, 2012, we wrote down $15,470 after we abandoned several exploration claims included in the Mateo property.

• On September 2, 2011 we adopted the Red Metal Resources Ltd. 2011 Equity Incentive Plan and granted 1,040,000 options to our officers, directors, and consultants. We recorded $527,318 in employee stock option expense associated with these grants.  We had no such expense during the year ended January 31, 2013.

Net loss. We had a net loss of $1,100,422 for the year ended January 31, 2013, compared to a net loss of $2,928,188 for the year ended January 31, 2012. The decrease in net loss was mainly associated with the conclusion of our drilling and mapping programs on our Farellon and Mateo properties, which resulted in a decrease in mineral exploration and automobile expenses. Reduced advertising activity, restructured consulting services, and the absence of stock based compensation also contributed to the overall decrease in our costs.

Liquidity

going concern

The consolidated financial statements included in this annual report have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that we will continue to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business. We have not generated any significant revenues from mineral sales since inception, have never paid any dividends and are unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. Our continuation as a going concern depends upon the continued financial support of our shareholders, our ability to obtain necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow depends upon our ability to locate profitable mineral claims, generate revenue from mineral production and control our production costs. Based upon our current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods, which we plan to mitigate by controlling our operating costs and sharing mineral exploration expenses through joint venture agreements, if possible.  At January 31, 2013, we had a working capital deficit of $2,083,112 and accumulated losses of $7,085,429 since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate significant revenues in the future. Our consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments that would be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in our financial statements.

internal and external sources of liquidity

To date we have funded our operations by selling our securities and borrowing funds, and, to a minor extent, from mining royalties.

Net cash provided by financing activities.

During the year ended January 31, 2013, we issued 767,335 shares of our common stock to four subscribers for $270,301; borrowed $57,000 from a shareholder; borrowed $22,000 US and $52,000 Cdn (approximately $51,944 US) from our director; and repaid a $56,553 loan including accrued interest to a company owned by a significant shareholder.

During the year ended January 31, 2012, as part of the private offering completed on April 7, 2011, we issued 6,290,000 units at $0.30 per unit for cash proceeds of $1,828,099, net of $58,900 in commissions paid to agents, and 433,333 units at $0.30 per unit in payment of $130,000 in debt. Each unit consisted of one share of our common stock and a two-year warrant exercisable for one share of our common stock at $0.50 per share. On April 5, 2013, we extended the term of these warrants for an additional year, to April 7, 2014, and lowered the exercise price to $0.10. We received $25,000 on exercise of a warrant for 83,333 shares at $0.30 per share. See Non-cash financing transactions below.

During the year ended January 31, 2012 we borrowed $101,000 from significant shareholders; $62,389 Cdn (approximately $62,220 US) from a company controlled by two directors; $55,000 Cdn (approximately $54,715) from a director; and $78,500 US and $10,000 Cdn (approximately $10,454 US) from our CFO. We also repaid $14,382 in loans including accrued interest and recognized foreign exchange adjustment on $50,000 Cdn that we borrowed during the year ended January 31, 2011 from our CEO. See Non-cash financing transactions below.

Non-cash financing transactions. During the year ended January 31, 2012, as part of the private offering completed on April 7, 2011, the Company’s CEO converted loans in the amount of $50,000 into 166,666 units and the Company’s CFO converted loans in the amount of $80,000 into 266,667 units. In addition, a significant shareholder elected to exercise a warrant for the purchase of 166,667 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.30 per share through the cancellation of a loan in the amount of $50,000.

34

During the year ended January 31, 2013, we did not have any non-cash financing transactions.

Net cash used in operating activities.

During the year ended January 31, 2013, we used net cash of $204,769 in operating activities. We used $1,100,422 to cover operating costs. This use of cash was offset by a decrease of $44,165 in prepaids; net increases in accounts payable of $95,343 and accrued liabilities of $20,425; accounts payable to related parties of $595,243 for administration, consulting, advertising and promotion, mineral exploration, and travel expenses; and accrued interest on our notes payable to related parties of $22,829.

During the year ended January 31, 2012, we used net cash of $1,944,032 in operating activities. We used $2,928,188 to cover operating costs and increased prepaids and other receivables by $7,584. As part of our operating costs we recorded a non-cash employee stock based compensation expense of $527,318. These uses of cash were offset by increases in trade accounts payable and accrued liabilities by $10,018 and $31,380, respectively; accounts payable to related parties of $395,451 and accrued interest on our notes payable to related parties of $8,996.

Net cash used in investing activities.

During the year ended January 31, 2013, we spent $138,942 on acquisition of mineral claims, options to acquire mineral claims, and on property taxes associated with our mineral claims.

During the year ended January 31, 2012, we spent $150,269 on acquisition of mineral claims, options to acquire mineral claims, and on property taxes associated with our mineral claims.  We also spent $19,820 on the purchase of equipment.

Since inception through January 31, 2013, we have invested $1,315,980 in acquiring our mineral claims and $19,820 for acquisition of other capital assets.

Capital resources

Our ability to acquire and explore our Chilean claims is subject to our ability to obtain the necessary funding.  We expect to raise funds through loans from private or affiliated persons and sales of our debt or equity securities. We have no committed sources of capital.  If we are unable to raise funds as and when we need them, we may be required to curtail, or even to cease, our operations.

Contingencies and commitments

We had no contingencies at January 31, 2013.  

As of the date of the filing of this report we have the following long-term contractual obligations and commitments:

· Farellon royalty. We are committed to paying the vendor a royalty equal to 1.5% on the net sales of minerals extracted from the Farellon claims up to a total of $600,000. The royalty payments are due monthly once exploitation begins and are subject to minimum payments of $1,000 per month. We have no obligation to pay the royalty if we do not commence exploitation.

· Che royalty. We are committed to paying a royalty equal to 1% of the net sales of minerals extracted from the claims to a maximum of $100,000 to the former owner. The royalty payments are due monthly once exploitation begins, and are not subject to minimum payments.

· Mineral property taxes payable of approximately $48,000 per annum.

35

Equity financing

To generate working capital, between February 1, 2011 and April 14, 2013 we issued 7,740,668 shares of our common stock and warrants for the purchase of 7,187,001 shares to raise $2,303,401 under Regulations S and D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

Based on our operating plan, we anticipate incurring operating losses in the foreseeable future and will require additional equity capital to support our operations and develop our business plan.  If we succeed in completing future equity financing, the issuance of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders.

Debt financing

Between February 1, 2011 and January 31, 2013, we borrowed a total of $307,889 from related parties.  Of this amount, $63,930 has been repaid.  Information about these transactions is included in the section of this report titled “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence”.

Challenges and risks

We do not anticipate generating any revenue over the next twelve months. We plan to fund our operations through any combination of equity or debt financing from the sale of our securities, private loans, joint ventures or through the sale of part interest in our mineral properties. Although we have succeeded in raising funds as we needed them, we cannot assure you that this will continue in the future.  Many things, such as the continued general downturn, worldwide, of the economy or a significant decrease in the price of minerals, could affect the willingness of potential investors to invest in risky ventures such as ours. In addition to our planned Perth joint venture agreement, we may consider entering into a joint venture partnership with other resource companies to complete a mineral exploration program on other properties in Chile. If we enter into a joint venture arrangement, we would likely have to assign a percentage of our interest in our mineral claims to our joint venture partner in exchange for the funding.

As at January 31, 2013, we owed approximately $1.64 million to related parties for loans and services that have been provided to us.  We do not have the funds to pay this debt therefore we are planning to partially pay this debt with shares of our common stock.  We anticipate that, because of the low price of our common stock, we will issue a substantial number of shares for this purpose, although no final terms have been agreed upon by the company and these individuals.  The issuance of these shares will likely result in substantial dilution to the book value of our common stock held by our existing shareholders.  Furthermore, if we were to register these shares, they could be sold without restriction, which could have the effect of driving down the price of our common stock in the market.

Investments in and expenditures on mineral interests

Realization of our investments in mineral properties depends upon our maintaining legal ownership, producing from the properties or gainfully disposing of them.

Title to mineral claims involves risks inherent in the difficulties of determining the validity of claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the ambiguous conveyancing history characteristic of many mineral claims. Our contracts and deeds have been notarized, recorded in the registry of mines and published in the mining bulletin. We review the mining bulletin regularly to discover whether other parties have staked claims over our ground. We have discovered no such claims. To the best of our knowledge, we have taken the steps necessary to ensure that we have good title to our mineral claims.

Foreign exchange

We are subject to foreign exchange risk for transactions denominated in foreign currencies.  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.  We do not believe that we have any material risk due to foreign currency exchange.

36

Trends, events or uncertainties that may impact results of operations or liquidity

The financial crisis which began in 2007 and continues today has had an adverse impact on our business and financial position, since we must rely on sales of our securities and loans to continue our operations.  We have found that there is less capital available to us and less appetite for risk by investors.  Furthermore, we have found that locating other mineral exploration companies with available funds who are willing to engage in risky ventures such as the exploration of our properties has become very difficult since the economic downturn.  If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may not be able to develop our properties or continue our operations.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements and no non-consolidated, special-purpose entities.

Related-party transactions

Related-party transactions are disclosed in Item 13 on page 44 of this annual report.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain of the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. The company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the company may differ materially and adversely from the company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. The most significant estimates with regard to these financial statements relate to carrying values of unproven mineral properties, determination of fair values of stock-based transactions, and deferred income tax rates.

Reclassifications

Certain comparative amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the consolidated results of operations or financial position for any year presented.

Financial instruments

Our financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, accrued professional fees and accrued mineral property costs. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values due to their short maturities.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

The company has reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and plans to adopt those that are applicable to it. We do not expect the adoption of these pronouncements to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Red Metal Resources, Ltd.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Red Metal Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) (an exploration stage company) as at January 31, 2013 and January 31, 2012 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended and the cumulative period from January 10, 2005 (inception) to January 31, 2013.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at January 31, 2013 and January 31, 2012 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from January 10, 2005 (inception) to January 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has not generated revenues since inception, has incurred losses in developing its business, and further losses are anticipated.  The Company requires additional funds to meet its obligations and the costs of its operations.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in this regard are described in Note 1.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.

(AN EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JANUARY 31, 2013

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Operations

Red Metal Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated on January 10, 2005, under the laws of the State of Nevada.  On August 21, 2007, the Company acquired a 99% interest in Minera Polymet Limitada (“Polymet”), a limited liability company formed on August 21, 2007, under the laws of the Republic of Chile. The Company is involved in acquiring and exploring mineral properties in Chile.  The Company has not determined whether its properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable.  

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  The Company is in the exploration stage.  It has generated only minimal operating revenues to date, and has accumulated losses of $7,085,429 since inception.  The Company has funded its operations through the issuance of capital stock and debt.  Management plans to raise additional funds through equity and/or debt financings, and by entering into joint venture agreements.  There is no certainty that further funding will be available as needed.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern.  The Company’s ability to continue its operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of its assets, and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon its ability to raise new capital sufficient to fund its commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately on generating profitable operations.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with US GAAP, and are expressed in United States dollars. The Company has not produced revenues from its principal business and is an exploration stage company as defined by “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises.” These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Polymet. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Reclassifications

Certain comparative amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the consolidated results of operations or financial position for any year presented.

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain of the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. The most significant estimates with regard to these financial statements relate to carrying values of unproved mineral properties, asset retirement obligations, fair value of stock based transactions, and future deferred income tax rates.

F - 6

Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs an obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of the assets. The estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation is based on the current cost escalated at an inflation rate and discounted at a credit adjusted risk-free rate. This liability is capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset and amortized over its useful life.  The liability accretes until the Company settles the obligation.  To date the Company has not incurred any measurable asset retirement obligations.

Long Lived Assets

The carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets is reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest impairment. The Company recognizes impairment when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The estimated fair value of cash, other receivables, amounts due to related parties and accounts payable approximates their carrying value due to their short-term nature.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction

The functional currency for the Company’s foreign subsidiary is the Chilean peso.  The Company translates assets and liabilities to US dollars using year-end exchange rates, translates unproved mineral properties using historical exchange rates, and translates revenues and expenses using average exchange rates during the period. Exchange gains and losses arising from the translation of foreign entity financial statements are included as a component of other comprehensive loss.  

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the legal entity are re-measured to the functional currency of the legal entity at the year-end exchange rates.  Any associated transactional currency re-measurement gains and losses are recognized in current operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenues and royalties from the sale of minerals when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the minerals have been delivered to the customer and the risk of ownership or title has been transferred, and collectability is reasonably assured.  

Income Taxes

Income taxes are determined using the liability method.  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. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes that date of enactment.  In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes by applying a two-step method. First, it evaluates whether a tax position has met a more likely than not recognition threshold, and second, it measures that tax position to determine the amount of benefit, if any, to be recognized in the financial statements. The application of this method did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

F - 7

Loss per Share

The Company presents both basic and diluted loss per share (“LPS”) on the face of the statements of operations. Basic LPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted LPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including convertible debt, stock options, and warrants, using the treasury stock method. Diluted LPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Mineral Properties

Realization of the Company's investment in and expenditures on mineral properties is dependent upon the establishment of legal ownership, the attainment of successful production from the properties or from the proceeds of their disposal.

Title to mineral properties involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyancing history characteristics of many mineral properties. To the best of its knowledge the Company believes all of its unproved mineral interests are in good standing and that it has title to all of these mineral interests.

The Company classifies its mineral rights as tangible assets and accordingly acquisition costs are capitalized as mineral property costs. Mineral exploration costs are expensed as incurred until commercially mineable deposits are determined to exist within a particular property.

Stock Options and Other Share-Based Compensation

For equity awards, such as stock options, total compensation cost is based on the grant date fair value and for liability awards, such as stock appreciation rights, total compensation cost is based on the settlement value. The company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for all awards over the service period required to earn the award, which is the shorter of the vesting period or the time period an employee becomes eligible to retain the award at retirement.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

The Company has reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and plans to adopt those that are applicable to it. It does not expect the adoption of these pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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

Not applicable.

ITEM 9A:  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Report on Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.  The evaluation was undertaken in consultation with our accounting personnel.  Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control over financial reporting.  Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

· pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

· provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and our directors; and

· provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, our internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.  Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2013.  In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework

Based on our assessment, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer determined that, as of January 31, 2013, our internal control over financial reporting is effective.

39

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15 (f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter of the last fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B:  OTHER INFORMATION

Not applicable.

ITEM 10: DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Table 19 contains certain information regarding our directors, executive officers and key personnel. There is a family relationship between Caitlin Jeffs and Michael Thompson.  Directors serve for one year and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. In Chile, Polymet has one legal representative, which is similar to a director, and a manager, which is similar to a president.

Table 19: Directors and officers

Name	Age		Position
Caitlin Jeffs		37	Director, chief executive officer, president and secretary
Michael Thompson		43	Director and vice president of exploration
John Da Costa		48	Director, chief financial officer and treasurer

Placer Dome (since acquired by Barrick Gold Corp. and Gold Corp.) was a major mining company with operations in North America, Australia, Africa and South America.  None of these companies is related to Red Metal. Ms. Jeffs was a self-employed consulting geologist from May 2006 to April 2007. She is one of the founders and the general manager of Fladgate Exploration Consulting Corporation, a firm of consulting geologists in Ontario, Canada, which provides its services to Red Metal. Since July 2012, Ms. Jeffs has been a director of Kesselrun Resources Ltd., a resource exploration company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange and focused on gold exploration in Ontario, Canada. She was a director of Trilogy Metals Inc., a resource exploration company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange, from July 2006 to May 2007.  She lives with Michael Thompson as a family.

He lives with Caitlin Jeffs as a family.

40

We believe that the extensive education and experience that Ms. Jeffs and Mr. Thompson have as geologists make them uniquely qualified to serve as directors of our company.  Their knowledge of mining and geology provides them with the tools necessary to set goals for our business and to determine how those goals can be achieved.

John da Costa. Mr. da Costa has been a director since May 2012 and our chief financial officer and treasurer since May 13, 2008.  Mr. da Costa has more than twenty years of experience providing bookkeeping and accounting services for both private and public companies and is the founder and president of Da Costa Management Corp., a company that has provided management and accounting services to public and private companies since August 2003.  Red Metal is a client of Da Costa Management Corp. Currently, Mr. da Costa is a director and the chief financial officer and secretary of Poly Shield Technologies Inc., a publicly traded U.S. company, engaged in marketing of cost effective, energy efficient and durability solutions, and a director and the chief financial officer and secretary of Kesselrun Resources Ltd., a Canadian reporting company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange . Mr. da Costa holds a number of executive positions in the following companies: the treasurer of Rock City Energy Corp., a non-reporting public company, a position he held from August 2006 until December 2011; and a director (from March 2004 – to July 2007) and chief executive officer and president (from July 2006 – to July 2007); the chief financial officer (from April 2005 – to July 2007) of Trilogy Metals Inc. a resource exploration company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange; and from October 2010 to May 2011, Mr. da Costa served as a director of Live Current Media Inc., a company that operated a number of e-commerce websites that was previously reporting under the Exchange Act.Mr. da Costa’s experience in accounting and as a director, chief financial officer and secretary of a publicly traded U.S. company led us to conclude that he should be a director.

Biographical information: Significant employee

Kevin Mitchell.  Mr. Mitchell has been the legal representative and manager of Minera Polymet Limitada since it was formed in August 2007.  He is a Canadian who has lived in Chile for more than twenty years.  He has owned and operated a heavy equipment company for all of that time, mainly servicing the mining industry.  Since February 2007 he has been the legal representative and manager of Minera Farellon Limitada, a Chilean company that investigates potential projects, conducts due diligence reviews, and provides logistical support.

During the past ten years none of our directors or executive officers was involved in any legal proceedings described in subparagraph (f) of Item 401 of Regulation S-K.

Directors’ compensation

Director’s compensation is described below in the Executive Compensation section.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder require our officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to furnish us with copies.  To our knowledge, based solely upon review of the copies of such reports received or written representations from the reporting persons, we believe that during the period covered by this annual report, our directors, executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements with the exception of Caitlin Jeffs, who was late in filing two Form 4s reporting two transactions.

41

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.  Our code of ethics will be provided to any person without charge, upon request.  Requests should be in writing and addressed to Caitlin Jeffs, c/o Red Metal Resources Ltd., 195 Park Avenue, Thunder Bay, Ontario P7B 1B9.

Corporate Governance

Our board of directors does not have an audit committee, a compensation committee or a nominating committee.  We believe this is appropriate given the small size of our company and the stage of our development.

We have not adopted any procedures by which our security holders may recommend nominees to our board of directors and that has not changed during the last fiscal year.

Our chief financial officer and director qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert”, as defined by Item 407 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  We believe that Mr. da Costa’s experience in preparing, analyzing and evaluating financial statements, as well as his knowledge of public company reporting, will provide us with the guidance we need until we are able to expand our board to include independent directors who have the knowledge and experience to serve on an audit committee.

ITEM 11: EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Table 20 summarizes all compensation for the 2013 and 2012 fiscal years received by our chief executive officer, our two most highly compensated executive officers who earned more than $100,000 and up to two additional individuals for whom disclosure would have been provided but for the fact that the individual was not serving as an executive officer at the end of the last completed fiscal year (collectively, the “Named Executive Officers”).

Equity Awards

On September 2, 2011 we adopted Red Metal Resources 2011 Equity Incentive Plan.  The purpose of the Plan is to benefit the company by enabling us to attract, retain and motivate officers, directors, employees and consultants by providing them with the opportunity, through grants of options to purchase our common stock, to acquire an increased proprietary interest in the company.  Table 21 provides information regarding the outstanding equity awards held by our executive officers as of January 31, 2013.

We have  no plans that provide for the payment of retirement benefits, or benefits that will be paid primarily following retirement, including but not limited to tax-qualified defined benefit plans, supplemental executive retirement plans, tax-qualified defined contribution plans and nonqualified defined contribution plans.

We have  no contracts, agreements, plans or arrangements, written or unwritten, that provide for payment to a Named Executive Officer at, following, or in connection with the resignation, retirement or other termination of a Named Executive Officer, or a change in control of our company or a change in the Named Executive Officer's responsibilities following a change in control.  We have no employment agreements with our Named Executive Officers.

In the past we have not paid compensation to our Named Executive Officers, although we have paid and continue to pay fees to entities controlled by our Named Executive Officers for services rendered to us.  See Item 13, “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence”.  During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2012, we determined to grant options to purchase our common stock to our Named Executive Officers as compensation for the services they render to us in our day-to-day operations.  Grants of options allow us to conserve cash at the same time as they increase the proprietary interest of our Named Executive Officers in the company, thereby aligning their interests with those of our stockholders.  In the future, we may pay cash compensation to our Named Executive Officers and we may pay bonuses of cash or securities as a way of rewarding exceptional performance.  We did not pay bonuses during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013.

We do not have a compensation committee.  Caitlin Jeffs, Michael Thompson and John da Costa, all of whom are executive officers as well as directors, participated in deliberations of the board of directors concerning executive officer compensation.

Director Compensation

We have not paid compensation to our directors.

ITEM 12: SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

Table 22 presents, as of April 1, 2013, information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock with respect to each of our executive officers, each of our directors, each person known by us to own beneficially more than 5% of the common stock, and all of our directors and executive officers as a group.  Beneficial ownership is determined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment power over securities.  Each individual or entity named has sole investment and voting power with respect to the shares of common stock indicated as beneficially owned by them, subject to community property laws, where applicable, except where otherwise noted.

Shares of common stock subject to options or warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days from April 1, 2013, are considered outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding the options or warrants for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

12 Months Ended

Jan. 31, 2013

Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with US GAAP, and are expressed in United States dollars. The Company has not produced revenues from its principal business and is an exploration stage company as defined by “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises.” These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Polymet. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Reclassifications

Certain comparative amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the consolidated results of operations or financial position for any year presented.

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain of the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. The most significant estimates with regard to these financial statements relate to carrying values of unproved mineral properties, asset retirement obligations, fair value of stock based transactions, and future deferred income tax rates.

Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs an obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of the assets. The estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation is based on the current cost escalated at an inflation rate and discounted at a credit adjusted risk-free rate. This liability is capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset and amortized over its useful life.  The liability accretes until the Company settles the obligation.  To date the Company has not incurred any measurable asset retirement obligations.

Long Lived Assets

The carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets is reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest impairment. The Company recognizes impairment when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The estimated fair value of cash, other receivables, amounts due to related parties and accounts payable approximates their carrying value due to their short-term nature.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction

The functional currency for the Company’s foreign subsidiary is the Chilean peso.  The Company translates assets and liabilities to US dollars using year-end exchange rates, translates unproved mineral properties using historical exchange rates, and translates revenues and expenses using average exchange rates during the period. Exchange gains and losses arising from the translation of foreign entity financial statements are included as a component of other comprehensive loss.  

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the legal entity are re-measured to the functional currency of the legal entity at the year-end exchange rates.  Any associated transactional currency re-measurement gains and losses are recognized in current operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenues and royalties from the sale of minerals when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the minerals have been delivered to the customer and the risk of ownership or title has been transferred, and collectability is reasonably assured.  

Income Taxes

Income taxes are determined using the liability method.  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. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes that date of enactment.  In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes by applying a two-step method. First, it evaluates whether a tax position has met a more likely than not recognition threshold, and second, it measures that tax position to determine the amount of benefit, if any, to be recognized in the financial statements. The application of this method did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Loss per Share

The Company presents both basic and diluted loss per share (“LPS”) on the face of the statements of operations. Basic LPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted LPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including convertible debt, stock options, and warrants, using the treasury stock method. Diluted LPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Mineral Properties

Realization of the Company's investment in and expenditures on mineral properties is dependent upon the establishment of legal ownership, the attainment of successful production from the properties or from the proceeds of their disposal.

Title to mineral properties involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyancing history characteristics of many mineral properties. To the best of its knowledge the Company believes all of its unproved mineral interests are in good standing and that it has title to all of these mineral interests.

The Company classifies its mineral rights as tangible assets and accordingly acquisition costs are capitalized as mineral property costs. Mineral exploration costs are expensed as incurred until commercially mineable deposits are determined to exist within a particular property.

Stock Options and Other Share-Based Compensation

For equity awards, such as stock options, total compensation cost is based on the grant date fair value and for liability awards, such as stock appreciation rights, total compensation cost is based on the settlement value. The company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for all awards over the service period required to earn the award, which is the shorter of the vesting period or the time period an employee becomes eligible to retain the award at retirement.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

The Company has reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and plans to adopt those that are applicable to it. It does not expect the adoption of these pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Operations

Red Metal Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated on January 10, 2005, under the laws of the State of Nevada.  On August 21, 2007, the Company acquired a 99% interest in Minera Polymet Limitada (“Polymet”), a limited liability company formed on August 21, 2007, under the laws of the Republic of Chile. The Company is involved in acquiring and exploring mineral properties in Chile.  The Company has not determined whether its properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable.  

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  The Company is in the exploration stage.  It has generated only minimal operating revenues to date, and has accumulated losses of $7,085,429 since inception.  The Company has funded its operations through the issuance of capital stock and debt.  Management plans to raise additional funds through equity and/or debt financings, and by entering into joint venture agreements.  There is no certainty that further funding will be available as needed.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern.  The Company’s ability to continue its operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of its assets, and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon its ability to raise new capital sufficient to fund its commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately on generating profitable operations.

Accounting Policies, by Policy (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Jan. 31, 2013

Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with US GAAP, and are expressed in United States dollars. The Company has not produced revenues from its principal business and is an exploration stage company as defined by “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises.” These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Polymet. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Reclassification, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Reclassifications

Certain comparative amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the consolidated results of operations or financial position for any year presented.

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain of the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. The most significant estimates with regard to these financial statements relate to carrying values of unproved mineral properties, asset retirement obligations, fair value of stock based transactions, and future deferred income tax rates.

Asset Retirement Obligations, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs an obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of the assets. The estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation is based on the current cost escalated at an inflation rate and discounted at a credit adjusted risk-free rate. This liability is capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset and amortized over its useful life.  The liability accretes until the Company settles the obligation.  To date the Company has not incurred any measurable asset retirement obligations.

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Long Lived Assets

The carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets is reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest impairment. The Company recognizes impairment when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The estimated fair value of cash, other receivables, amounts due to related parties and accounts payable approximates their carrying value due to their short-term nature.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]

Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction

The functional currency for the Company’s foreign subsidiary is the Chilean peso.  The Company translates assets and liabilities to US dollars using year-end exchange rates, translates unproved mineral properties using historical exchange rates, and translates revenues and expenses using average exchange rates during the period. Exchange gains and losses arising from the translation of foreign entity financial statements are included as a component of other comprehensive loss.  

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the legal entity are re-measured to the functional currency of the legal entity at the year-end exchange rates.  Any associated transactional currency re-measurement gains and losses are recognized in current operations.

Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenues and royalties from the sale of minerals when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the minerals have been delivered to the customer and the risk of ownership or title has been transferred, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Income Taxes

Income taxes are determined using the liability method.  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. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes that date of enactment.  In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes by applying a two-step method. First, it evaluates whether a tax position has met a more likely than not recognition threshold, and second, it measures that tax position to determine the amount of benefit, if any, to be recognized in the financial statements. The application of this method did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Loss per Share

The Company presents both basic and diluted loss per share (“LPS”) on the face of the statements of operations. Basic LPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted LPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including convertible debt, stock options, and warrants, using the treasury stock method. Diluted LPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Mineral Properties

Realization of the Company's investment in and expenditures on mineral properties is dependent upon the establishment of legal ownership, the attainment of successful production from the properties or from the proceeds of their disposal.

Title to mineral properties involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyancing history characteristics of many mineral properties. To the best of its knowledge the Company believes all of its unproved mineral interests are in good standing and that it has title to all of these mineral interests.

The Company classifies its mineral rights as tangible assets and accordingly acquisition costs are capitalized as mineral property costs. Mineral exploration costs are expensed as incurred until commercially mineable deposits are determined to exist within a particular property.

Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block]

Stock Options and Other Share-Based Compensation

For equity awards, such as stock options, total compensation cost is based on the grant date fair value and for liability awards, such as stock appreciation rights, total compensation cost is based on the settlement value. The company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for all awards over the service period required to earn the award, which is the shorter of the vesting period or the time period an employee becomes eligible to retain the award at retirement.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

The Company has reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and plans to adopt those that are applicable to it. It does not expect the adoption of these pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
