INFORMATION CIRCULAR
PURPOSE OF SOLICITATION
This Information Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of International Gemini Technology Inc. (the Corporation) for use at the annual and special meeting (the Meeting) of shareholders of the Corporation to be held at #208 828 Harbourside Drive, North Vancouver, British Columbia on June 28, 2005 at 2:00 p.m., Vancouver time, and at any adjournment thereof for the purposes set out in the accompanying Notice Of Meeting. Although it is expected that the solicitation of proxies will be primarily by mail, proxies may also be solicited personally or by telephone by directors, officers or regular employees of the Corporation. Pursuant to National Instrument 54-101, arrangements have been made with clearing agencies, brokerage houses and other financial intermediaries to forward proxy solicitation material to the beneficial owners of the common shares (Common Shares) of the Corporation. The cost of any such solicitation will be borne by the Corporation.
VOTING OF PROXIES
All Common Shares represented at the Meeting by properly executed proxies will be voted and where a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon has been specified in the instrument of proxy, the Common Shares represented by the proxy will be voted in accordance with such specifications. In the absence of any such specifications, the management designees, if named as proxy, will vote in favour of all the matters set out herein.
The enclosed Instrument of Proxy confers discretionary authority upon the management designees, or other persons named as proxy, with respect to amendments to or variations of matters identified in the Notice of Meeting and any other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. At the date of this Information Circular, the Corporation is not aware of any amendments to, or variations of, or other matters which may come before the Meeting. In the event that other matters come before the Meeting, then the management designees intend to vote in accordance with the judgment of the management of the Corporation.
Proxies, to be valid, must be deposited at the office of the registrar and transfer agent of the Corporation, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, Proxy Department, 100 University Avenue, 9th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2Y1, not less than 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays, preceding the Meeting or any adjournment thereof.
APPOINTMENT OF PROXY
A shareholder has the right to designate a person (who need not be a shareholder of the Corporation) other than Martin Schultz, Secretary and Director of the Corporation, or failing him, Douglas E. Ford, Director of the Corporation, the management designees, to attend and act for the shareholder at the Meeting. Such right may be exercised by inserting in the blank space provided the name of the person to be designated and deleting therefrom the names of the management designees, or by completing another proper instrument of proxy and, in either case, depositing the instrument of proxy with the registrar and transfer agent of the Corporation, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, Proxy Department, 100 University Avenue, 9th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2Y1, not less than 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays, preceding the Meeting or any adjournment thereof.
REVOCATION OF PROXIES
A shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it as to any matter upon which a vote has not already been cast pursuant to the authority conferred by the proxy.
A shareholder may revoke a proxy by depositing an instrument in writing, executed by the shareholder or his attorney authorized in writing, or, if the shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal or signed by a duly authorized officer or attorney for the corporation:
(a) | at the offices of the registrar and transfer agent of the Corporation, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, Proxy Department, 100 University Avenue, 9th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2Y1, not less than 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays, preceding the Meeting or an adjournment of the Meeting at which the proxy is to be used; or |
(b) | at the registered office of the Corporation, #208 828 Harbourside Drive, North Vancouver, BC V7P 3R9, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting or an adjournment of the Meeting at which the proxy is to be used; or |
(c) | with the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof. |
In addition, a proxy may be revoked by the shareholder executing another form of proxy bearing a later date and depositing same at the offices of the registrar and transfer agent of the Corporation within the time period set out under the heading Voting of Proxies, or by the shareholder personally attending the Meeting and voting his or her shares.
ADVICE TO BENEFICIAL HOLDERS OF COMMON SHARES
ON VOTING COMMON SHARES
The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many shareholders of the Corporation, as a substantial number of shareholders do not hold Common Shares in their own name. Shareholders who do not hold their Common Shares in their own name (Beneficial Shareholders) should note that only proxies deposited by shareholders whose names appear on the records of the Corporation as the registered holders of Common Shares can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a shareholder by a broker, then, in almost all cases, those Common Shares will not be registered in the shareholders name on the records of the Corporation. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the name of the shareholders broker or an agent of that broker. In Canada, the vast majority of such shares are registered under the name of CDS & Co. (the nominee of The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited, which acts as depositary for many Canadian brokerage firms). Common Shares held by brokers or their agents or nominees can only be voted (for or against resolutions) upon the instructions of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, a broker and its agents and nominees are prohibited from voting shares for the brokers clients. Therefore, Beneficial Shareholders should ensure that instructions respecting the voting of their Common Shares are communicated to the appropriate person.
Applicable regulatory rules require intermediaries and brokers to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of shareholders meetings. Every intermediary and broker has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions to clients, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the Meeting. Often, the form of proxy supplied to a Beneficial Shareholder by its broker (or the agent of the broker) is identical to the form of proxy provided to registered shareholders. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the registered shareholder (the broker or agent of the broker) how to vote on behalf of the Beneficial Shareholder. The majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to ADP Investor Communications Services (formerly Independent Investor Communications Corporation) (ADP). ADP typically applies a special sticker to the proxy forms, mails those forms to the Beneficial Shareholders and asks Beneficial Shareholders to return the proxy forms to ADP. ADP then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of shares to be represented at a meeting. A Beneficial Shareholder receiving a proxy with an ADP sticker on it cannot use that proxy to vote Common Shares directly at the Meeting. The proxy must be returned to ADP well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the Common Shares voted at the Meeting.
Although a Beneficial Shareholder may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting Common Shares registered in the name of his or her broker (or an agent of the broker), a Beneficial Shareholder may attend at the Meeting as proxyholder for the registered shareholder and vote the Common Shares in that capacity. Beneficial Shareholders who wish to attend the Meeting and indirectly vote their Common Shares as proxyholder for the registered shareholder, should enter their own names in the blank space on the form of proxy provided to them and return the same to their broker (or the brokers agent) in accordance with the instructions provided by such broker (or agent), well in advance of the Meeting.
VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF
The only outstanding securities of the Corporation carrying voting rights are the Common Shares. The Corporation is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares without nominal or par value, of which, as at the date hereof 8,323,119 Common Shares are issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Meeting on the basis of one (1) vote for each Common Share held.
The holders of Common Shares of record at the close of business on the record date, set by the Board of Directors of the Corporation to be May 25, 2005 (the Record Date), are entitled to vote such Common Shares at the Meeting, except to the extent that:
(a) such person transfers his or her Common Shares after the Record Date; and
(b) | the transferee of those shares produces properly endorsed share certificates or otherwise establishes his or her ownership to the shares and makes a demand to the registrar and transfer agent of the Corporation, not later than 10 days before the Meeting, that his or her name be included on the shareholders list for the Meeting. |
The by-laws of the Corporation provide that two (2) persons present and representing, in person or by proxy, not less than ten percent (10%) of the issued shares entitled to vote constitute a quorum for meetings of shareholders of the Corporation.
To the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of the Corporation, no person beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or controls or directs ten percent (10%) or more of the outstanding Common Shares.
PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON
To the knowledge of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, the only matters to be placed before the Meeting are those matters set forth in the Corporations accompanying Notice of Meeting relating to: (i) receipt of the audited financial statements of the Corporation for the periods ended December 31, 2004 and the Auditors Report thereto; (ii) the fixing of the number of directors to be elected at the Meeting at six (6) and the election of directors until the next annual meeting of shareholders; (iii) the appointment of auditors; and (iv) the ratification of the Corporations new Stock Option Plan (as hereinafter defined).
Election of Directors
There are presently five (5) directors of the Corporation, each of whose term of office shall expire at the termination of the Meeting unless such director is re-elected as a director at the Meeting.
It is proposed that the number of directors to be elected at the Meeting be increased by one and be set at six (6), and that the persons named below will be nominated at the Meeting. It is the intention of the management designees, if named as proxy, to vote for the election of said persons to the board of directors. Management does not contemplate that any of such nominees will be unable to serve as directors; however, if, for any reason any of the proposed nominees do not stand for election or are unable to serve as such, proxies in favour of management designees will be voted for another nominee in their discretion unless the shareholder has specified in his or her proxy that his or her shares are to be withheld from voting in the election of directors. Each director elected will hold office until the Corporations next annual meeting of shareholders or until his successor is duly elected or appointed pursuant to the by-laws of the Corporation.
The following information relating to the nominees as directors is based on information received by the Corporation from said nominees.

DMCHL are being proposed as Successor Auditor pursuant to paragraph 4.11 of National Instrument 51-102 in replacement of the Predecessor Auditor, Charlton & Company, Chartered Accountants, who have been the auditors of the Corporation since September 1992. See Appendix A for the required Change of Auditor documents.
Ratification of New Stock Option Plan
Shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to vote on a resolution to approve, for the ensuing year, the stock option plan adopted by the board of directors of the Corporation on May 30, 2005 (the New Plan), subject to approval of the shareholders of the Corporation and as described below.
The New Plan
The New Plan provides that the board of directors of the Corporation may from time to time, in its discretion, grant to directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Corporation, or any subsidiary of the Corporation, the option to purchase Common Shares. The New Plan provides for a floating maximum number of options equivalent to 10% of the outstanding Common Shares, as permitted by the rules of the applicable regulatory body. Based on 8,323,119 Common Shares currently outstanding, 832,311 Common Shares would be available for issuance under the New Plan.
Under the New Plan, the number of options reserved for any one person may not exceed 5% of the outstanding Common Shares. The Options granted under the New Plan, together with all of the Corporations other previously established stock option plans or grants, shall not result at any time in the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to Options granted to Insiders exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. The board of directors determines the price per Common Share and the number of options which may be allotted to each director, officer, employee and consultant and all other terms and conditions of the options, subject to the rules of the applicable regulatory body. The price per Common Share set by the directors is subject to minimum pricing restrictions set by the applicable regulatory body and in any event, cannot be less than the Current Market Price, which is defined in the New Plan to be the closing trading price per Common Share on the date preceding the date of the computation, or if such Common Shares are not listed on any stock exchange at a price determined by the Board of Directors.
Options may be exercisable for up to ten (10) years from the date of grant, but the board of directors has the discretion to grant options which are exercisable for a shorter period. Options granted under the New Plan do not require vesting provisions, though the board may attach a vesting period or periods to individual grants as it deems fit. Options under the New Plan are non-assignable. If prior to the exercise of an option, the holder ceases to be a director, officer, employee or consultant, the option shall be limited to the number of Common Shares purchasable by him immediately prior to the time of his cessation of office or employment and he shall have no right to purchase any other Common Shares. Options must expire within 90 days after termination of employment or cessation of position with the Corporation, provided that if the cessation of office, directorship, consulting arrangement or employment was by reason of death or disability, the option must expire within 120 days, subject to an earlier expiry date.
The Board of Directors may at any time, but subject always to the receipt of required regulatory approvals, alter, amend or revise the terms and conditions of the New Plan or of any outstanding options or suspend, discontinue or terminate the New Plan or any portion hereof, all provided that, without the prior written consent of an optionee, no such action shall adversely affect any options previously granted to such optionee (if all regulatory approvals have been obtained and an option agreement has been entered into between the Corporation and the optionee). Specifically, the Board of Directors shall not require the approval of the shareholders of the Corporation for amendments of a housekeeping nature; a change to the vesting provisions of the New Plan; a change to the termination provisions of the New Plan which does not entail an extension beyond the original expiry date; and the addition of a cashless exercise feature, payable in cash or securities, which provides for a full deduction of the number of underlying securities from the New Plan reserve. Upon the suspension, discontinuance or termination of the New Plan or any portion hereof, any option granted prior thereto (if all regulatory approvals have been obtained and an option agreement has been entered into between the Corporation and the optionee) shall remain exercisable in accordance with its terms as specified herein and in the option agreement. The full text of the New Plan is attached as Schedule A to this Information Circular of the Corporation dated May 31, 2005.
At the Meeting, the shareholders will be asked to approve the following resolution:
BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
(a) | the 10% rolling incentive stock option plan adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation on May 30, 2005 as described in the Management Information Circular of the Corporation dated May 31, 2005 and attached thereto as Schedule A, be and is hereby ratified and approved for the ensuing year; and |
(b) | any one director or officer of the Corporation be authorized to make all such arrangements, to do all acts and things and to sign and execute all documents and instruments in writing, whether under the corporate seal of the Corporation or otherwise, as may be considered necessary or advisable to give full force and effect to the foregoing. |
The resolution must be approved by a simple majority approval of the votes cast at the meeting by the holders of Common Shares. If the New Plan is not ratified by the shareholders, the Corporation will have to consider other methods of compensating and providing incentives to directors, officers, employees, consultants and other personnel.
If named as proxy, the management designees intend to vote the Common Shares represented by such proxy FOR approval of the New Plan, unless otherwise directed in the instrument of proxy.

In exchange for its investment, the Corporation will receive 4 million units of Pinefalls Gold. Each unit will consist of one common share and one warrant to purchase an additional common share at $0.075 for two years. Prior to exercising its warrants the Corporation will own approximately 37% of the then outstanding 10.7 million common shares of Pinefalls Gold. Assuming the exercise of the warrants, the Corporation will own approximately 54% of Pinefalls Gold.
Separately, the Corporation has entered into an Option Agreement with one of the principal shareholders of Pinefalls Gold (the PFG Option) which entitles the Corporation to acquire a further 3 million common shares of Pinefalls Gold in exchange for one million common shares of the Corporation. The PFG Option is exercisable at the Corporations sole discretion until it expires on March 31, 2006.
The Corporation and Pinefalls Gold have entered into these arrangements on a non-arms length basis. The two companies have certain directors and principal shareholders in common. The Corporations directors with conflicts of interest have refrained from voting on the relevant resolutions. The Corporation is relying on exemptions 5.5(3)[corporation not listed on specified markets] and 5.7(3)[fair market value not more than $2,500,000] from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements of OSC Rule 61-501 regarding Related Party Transactions.

The purpose of the Plan is to provide an incentive to the directors, officers, employees, consultants and other personnel of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries to achieve the longer-term objectives of the Corporation; to give suitable recognition to the ability and industry of such persons who contribute materially to the success of the Corporation; and to attract to and retain in the employ of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, persons of experience and ability, by providing them with the opportunity to acquire an increased proprietary interest in the Corporation.

(a) Board of Directors means the Board of Directors of the Corporation;
(b) | Corporation means International Gemini Technology Inc. and any successor corporation and any reference herein to action by the Corporation means action by or under the authority of its Board of Directors or a duly empowered committee appointed by the Board of Directors; |

Wherever the singular or masculine is used in this Plan, the same shall be construed as meaning the plural or feminine or body corporate and vice versa, where the context or the parties so require.
3. Administration
The Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors shall have full and final discretion to interpret the provisions of the Plan and to prescribe, amend, rescind and waive rules and regulations to govern the administration and operation of the Plan. All decisions and interpretations made by the Board of Directors shall be binding and conclusive upon the Corporation and on all persons eligible to participate in the Plan, subject to shareholder approval if required by the Exchange. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision contained herein, the Board of Directors shall have the right to delegate the administration and operation of the Plan to a special committee of directors appointed from time to time by the Board of Directors, in which case all references herein to the Board of Directors shall be deemed to refer to such committee.
4. Eligibility
The Board of Directors may at any time and from time to time designate those Optionees who are to be granted an Option pursuant to the Plan and grant an Option to such Optionee. Subject to Exchange Policies and the limitations contained herein, the Board of Directors is authorized to provide for the grant and exercise of Options on such terms (which may vary as between Options) as it shall determine. No Option shall be granted to any person except upon recommendation of the Board of Directors. A person who has been granted an Option may, if he is otherwise eligible and if permitted by Exchange Policies, be granted an additional Option or Options if the Board of Directors shall so determine. Subject to Exchange Policies, the Corporation shall represent that the Optionee is a bona fide Employee, Consultant or Management Company Employee (as such terms are defined in Exchange Policies) in respect of Options granted to such Optionees.
5. Participation
Participation in the Plan shall be entirely voluntary and any decision not to participate shall not affect an Optionees relationship or employment with the Corporation.

Options shall not be affected by any change of employment of the Optionee or by the Optionee ceasing to be a director or officer of or a consultant to the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, where the Optionee at the same time becomes or continues to be a director, officer or full-time employee of or a consultant to the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries.
No Optionee shall have any of the rights of a shareholder of the Corporation in respect to Share(s) issuable on exercise of an Option until such Share(s) shall have been paid for in full and issued by the Corporation on exercise of the Option, pursuant to this Plan.
6. Share(s) Subject to Options
The number of authorized but unissued Share(s) that may be issued upon the exercise of Options granted under the Plan at any time plus the number of Share(s) reserved for issuance under outstanding incentive stock options otherwise granted by the Corporation shall not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Share(s) on a non-diluted basis at any time, and such aggregate number of Share(s) shall automatically increase or decrease as the number of issued and outstanding Share(s) changes. The Options granted under the Plan together with all of the Corporations other previously established stock option plans or grants, shall not result at any time in:
(a) | the number of Share(s) reserved for issuance pursuant to Options granted to Insiders exceeding 10% of the issued and outstanding Share(s); |
(b) | the grant to Insiders within a 12 month period, of a number of Options exceeding 10% of the outstanding Share(s); or |
(c) | the grant to any one (1) Optionee within a twelve month period, of a number of Options exceeding 5% of the issued and outstanding Share(s). |
Subject to Exchange Policies, the aggregate number of Share(s) reserved for issuance to any one (1) Optionee under Options granted in any 12 month period shall not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding Share(s) determined at the date of grant (or 2% of the issued and outstanding Share(s) in the case of an Optionee who is a Consultant or an Employee conducting Investor Relations Activities (as such terms are defined in Exchange Policies)).
Appropriate adjustments shall be made as set forth in Section 14 hereof, in both the number of Share(s) covered by individual grants and the total number of Share(s) authorized to be issued hereunder, to give effect to any relevant changes in the capitalization of the Corporation.
If any Option granted hereunder shall expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased Share(s) subject thereto shall again be available for the purpose of the Plan.
7. Option Agreement
(a) | A written agreement will be entered into between the Corporation and each Optionee to whom an Option is granted hereunder, which agreement will set out the number of Share(s) subject to option, the exercise price and any other terms and conditions approved by the Board of Directors, all in accordance with the provisions of this Plan (herein referred to as the Stock Option Agreement). The Stock Option Agreement will be in such form as the Board of Directors may from time to time approve, and may contain such terms as may be considered necessary in order that the Option will comply with any provisions respecting options in the income tax or other laws in force in any country or jurisdiction of which the Optionee may from time to time be a resident or citizen or the rules of any regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Corporation. |
(b) | The Board of Directors may require any Optionee to agree in the Stock Option Agreement that the Optionee, if so requested by the Corporation or any representative of the underwriters (the Managing Underwriter) in connection with any registration of the offering of any securities of the Corporation under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act), Optionee shall not sell or otherwise transfer any Share(s) or other securities of the Corporation for a period of up to 180 days (or such other period as may be requested in writing by the Managing Underwriter and agreed to in writing by the Corporation) following the effective date of a registration statement of the Corporation filed under the 1933 Act. |
8. Option Period and Exercise Price
Each Option and all rights thereunder shall be expressed to expire on the date set out in the respective Stock Option Agreement, which shall be the date of the expiry of the Option Period (the Expiry Date), subject to earlier termination as provided in Sections 10 and 11 hereof.
Subject to Exchange Policies and any limitations imposed by any relevant regulatory authority, the exercise price of an Option granted under the Plan shall be as determined by the Board of Directors when such Option is granted and shall be an amount at least equal to the Discounted Market Price of the Share(s).
9. Exercise of Options
An Optionee shall be entitled to exercise an Option granted to him at any time prior to the expiry of the Option Period, subject to Sections 10 and 11 hereof and to vesting limitations which may be imposed by the Board of Directors at the time such Option is granted. Subject to Exchange Policies, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine the time during which an Option shall vest and the method of vesting, or that no vesting restriction shall exist.
The exercise of any Option will be conditional upon receipt by the Corporation at its head office of a written notice of exercise, specifying the number of Share(s) in respect of which the Option is being exercised, accompanied by cash payment, certified cheque or bank draft for the full purchase price of such Share(s) with respect to which the Option is being exercised.
Share(s) shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless the exercise of such Option and the issuance and delivery of such Share(s) pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of applicable securities law, including, without limitation, the 1933 Act, the United States Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, applicable U.S. state laws, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange or consolidated stock price reporting system on which prices for the Share(s) are quoted at any given time. As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Corporation may require the person exercising such Option to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Share(s) are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Share(s) if, in the opinion of counsel for the Corporation, such a representation is required by law.
The certificates representing any Share(s) issued to a U.S. person (as defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S under the 1933 Act, which definition includes, but is not limited to, an individual resident in the United States, an estate or trust of which any executor or administrator or trustee, respectively, is a U.S. person, and any partnership or corporation organized or incorporated under the laws of the United States) shall, until such time as the same is no longer required under the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or applicable U.S. state laws and regulations, bear a legend in substantially the following form:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE 1933 ACT). THESE SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE CORPORATION, (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE 1933 ACT, (C) IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE 1933 ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 OR RULE 144A THEREUNDER, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (D) IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE 1933 ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE LAWS AND REGULATIONS GOVERNING THE OFFER AND SALE OF SECURITIES, AND THE HOLDER HAS, PRIOR TO SUCH SALE, FURNISHED TO THE CORPORATION AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, OF RECOGNIZED STANDING, OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF EXEMPTION, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION. DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT CONSTITUTE GOOD DELIVERY IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON STOCK EXCHANGES IN CANADA. AT ANY TIME THE CORPORATION IS A FOREIGN ISSUER AS DEFINED IN REGULATION S UNDER THE 1933 ACT, A NEW CERTIFICATE, BEARING NO LEGEND, THE DELIVERY OF WHICH WILL CONSTITUTE GOOD DELIVERY MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE APPLICABLE TRANSFER AGENT UPON DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND A DULY EXECUTED DECLARATION, IN FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION AND THE APPLICABLE TRANSFER AGENT TO THE EFFECT THAT THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE 1933 ACT AT A TIME WHEN THE CORPORATION IS A FOREIGN ISSUER AS DEFINED IN REGULATION S UNDER THE 1933 ACT.
10. Ceasing to be a Director, Officer, Employee or Consultant
If an Optionee ceases to be a director, officer, employee or consultant of the Corporation or its subsidiaries for any reason other than death, the Optionee may, but only within ninety (90) days after the Optionees ceasing to be a director, officer, employee or consultant (or 30 days in the case of an Optionee engaged in Investor Relations Activities), or such shorter period as the Stock Option Agreement may provide, or prior to the expiry of the Option Period, whichever is earlier, exercise any Option held by the Optionee, but only to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option at the date of such cessation. For greater certainty, any Optionee who is deemed to be an employee of the Corporation pursuant to any medical or disability plan of the Corporation shall be deemed to be an employee for the purposes of the Plan.
11. Death of Optionee
In the event of the death of an Optionee, the Option previously granted to him shall be exercisable within one (1) year following the date of the death of the Optionee, or such shorter period as the Stock Option Agreement may provide, or prior to the expiry of the Option Period, whichever is earlier, and then only:
(a) | by the person or persons to whom the Optionees rights under the Option shall pass by the Optionees will or the laws of descent and distribution, or by the Optionees legal personal representative; and |
(b) | to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option at the date of the Optionees death. |
12. Optionees Rights Not Transferable
No right or interest of any Optionee in or under the Plan is assignable or transferable, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise in any manner except by bequeath or the laws of descent and distribution, subject to the requirements of the Exchange, or as otherwise allowed by the Exchange.
Subject to the foregoing, the terms of the Plan shall bind the Corporation and its successors and assigns, and each Optionee and his heirs, executors, administrators and personal representatives.
13. Takeover or Change of Control
The Corporation shall have the power, in the event of:
(a) | any disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, or the dissolution, merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or of such corporation into the Corporation, or |
(b) any change in control of the Corporation,
to make such arrangements as it shall deem appropriate for the exercise of outstanding Options or continuance of outstanding Options, including without limitation, to amend any Stock Option Agreement to permit the exercise of any or all of the remaining Options prior to the completion of any such transaction. If the Corporation shall exercise such power, the Option shall be deemed to have been amended to permit the exercise thereof in whole or in part by the Optionee at any time or from time to time as determined by the Corporation prior to the completion of such transaction.
14. Anti-Dilution of the Option
In the event of:
(a) | any subdivision, redivision or change of the Share(s) at any time during the term of the Option into a greater number of Share(s), the Corporation shall deliver, at the time of any exercise thereafter of the Option, such number of Share(s) as would have resulted from such subdivision, redivision or change if the exercise of the Option had been made prior to the date of such subdivision, redivision or change; |
(b) | any consolidation or change of the Share(s) at any time during the term of the Option into a lesser number of Share(s), the number of Share(s) deliverable by the Corporation on any exercise thereafter of the Option shall be reduced to such number of Share(s) as would have resulted from such consolidation or change if the exercise of the Option had been made prior to the date of such consolidation or change; |
(c) | any reclassification of the Share(s) at any time outstanding or change of the Share(s) into other shares, or in case of the consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation (other than a consolidation, amalgamation or merger which does not result in a reclassification of the outstanding Share(s) or a change of the Share(s) into other shares), or in case of any transfer of the undertaking or assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation, at any time during the term of the Option, the Optionee shall be entitled to receive, and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Share(s) to which he was theretofore entitled upon exercise of the Option, the kind and amount of shares and other securities or property which such holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such reclassification, change, consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer if, on the effective date thereof, he had been the holder of the number of Share(s) to which he was entitled upon exercise of the Option. |
Adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this section shall occur. For greater certainty, the Optionee shall pay for the number of shares, other securities or property as aforesaid, the amount the Optionee would have paid if the Optionee had exercised the Option prior to the effective date of such subdivision, redivision, consolidation or change of the Share(s) or such reclassification, consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer, as the case may be.
15. United States Matters
(a) | Each option granted under the Plan to an option holder who is a citizen or resident of the United States (including its territories, possessions and all areas subject to the jurisdiction) (a U.S. Optionee) will be designated in the Option Agreement as either a non-qualified stock option or an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, of the United States (the Code), provided that the stock option complies with the following provisions. If not designated in the Option Agreement, the Option shall be an incentive stock option. No provisions of the Plan, as it may be applied to a U.S. Optionee who has been granted an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, shall be construed so as to be inconsistent with any provision of Section 422 of the Code. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan contained to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply to each U.S. Optionee who will be granted an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code: |
(i) | options shall only be granted to U.S. Optionees who are, at the time of grant, officers, key employees or directors (provided, for purposes of this Section 11 only, such directors are then also officers or key employees of the Corporation or a subsidiary). Any director of the Corporation who is a U.S. Optionee shall be eligible to vote upon the granting of such option; |
(ii) | the aggregate fair market value (determined as of the time the option is granted) of the Share(s) exercisable for the first time by a U.S. Optionee during any calendar year under the Plan and all other stock option plans, within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, of the Corporation or any subsidiary shall not exceed US$100,000; |
(iii) | the purchase price for Share(s) under each Option granted to a U.S. Optionee pursuant to the Plan shall be not less than the fair market value of such Share(s) at the time the option is granted, as determined in good faith by the directors at such time; |
(iv) | if any U.S. Optionee to whom an option is to be granted under the Plan at the time of the grant of such option is the owner of shares possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of the Corporation, then the following special provisions shall be applicable to the option granted to such individual: |
(1) | the purchase price per Common Share subject to such option shall not be less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the fair market value of one Common Share at the time of grant; and |
(2) | for the purposes of this Section 11 only the option exercise period shall not exceed five (5) years from the date of grant; |
(v) | no option may be granted hereunder to a U.S. Optionee following the expiry of five (5) years after the date on which the Plan is adopted by the Board or the date the Plan is approved by the shareholders of the Corporation, whichever is earlier; |
(vi) | no option granted to a U.S. Optionee under the Plan shall become exercisable unless and until the Plan shall have been approved by the shareholders of the Corporation; and |
(vii) | no incentive stock options may be granted under the Plan after ten (10) years after the adoption of this Plan by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. |
(b) | At the discretion of the Board of Directors, Optionees may satisfy withholding obligations as provided in this paragraph. When an Optionee incurs tax liability in connection with an Option, which tax liability is subject to tax withholding under applicable tax laws (including, without limitation, income and payroll withholding taxes), and Optionee is obligated to pay the Corporation an amount required to be withheld under applicable tax laws, Optionee may satisfy the tax withholding obligation by one or some combination of the following methods: (a) by cash payment, (b) out of Optionees current compensation, (c) if permitted by the Board of Directors, in its discretion, by surrendering to the Corporation, Share(s) that (i) have been owned by Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender or such other period as may be required to avoid a charge to the Corporations earnings, and (ii) have a Market Value on the date of surrender equal to (or less than, if other consideration is paid to the Corporation to satisfy the withholding obligation) Optionees marginal tax rate times the ordinary income recognized, plus an amount equal to the Optionees share of any applicable payroll withholding taxes, or (d) if permitted by the Board of Directors, in its discretion, by electing to have the Corporation withhold from the Share(s) to be issued upon exercise of the Option, if any, that number of Share(s) having a Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. For this purpose, the Market Value of the Share(s) to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined (the Tax Date). In making its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the Board of Directors shall consider if acceptance of such consideration may be reasonably expected to benefit the Corporation or result in the recognition of compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) for financial reporting purposes. |
16. Costs
The Corporation shall pay all costs of administering the Plan.
17. Termination and Amendment
(a) | The Board of Directors may amend or terminate this Plan or any outstanding Option granted hereunder at any time without the approval of the shareholders of the Corporation or any Optionee whose Option is amended or terminated, in order to conform this Plan or such Option, as the case may be, to applicable law or regulation or the requirements of the Exchange or any relevant regulatory authority, whether or not such amendment or termination would affect any accrued rights, subject to the approval of the Exchange or such regulatory authority. |
(b) | The Board of Directors may amend or terminate this Plan or any outstanding Option granted hereunder for any reason other than the reasons set forth in Section 16(a) hereof, subject to the approval of the Exchange or any relevant regulatory authority and the approval of the shareholders of the Corporation if required by the Exchange or such regulatory authority. Subject to Exchange Policies, disinterested shareholder approval will be obtained for any reduction in the exercise price of an Option if the Optionee is an Insider of the Corporation at the time of the proposed amendment. No such amendment or termination will, without the consent of an Optionee, alter or impair any rights which have accrued to him prior to the effective date thereof. |
(c) | The Plan, and any amendments thereto, shall be subject to acceptance and approval by the Exchange. Any Options granted prior to such approval and acceptance shall be conditional upon such approval and acceptance being given and no such Options may be exercised unless and until such approval and acceptance are given. |
17. Applicable Law
This Plan shall be governed by, administered and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the laws of Canada applicable therein.
18. Prior Plans
On the effective date (as defined in Section 19 hereof), subject to required shareholder approval:
(a) | the Plan shall entirely replace and supersede prior stock option plans, if any, enacted by the Corporation; and |
(b) all outstanding options shall be deemed to be granted pursuant to the Plan.
19. Effective Date
This Plan shall become effective as of and from, and the effective date of the Plan shall be, May 30, 2005, subject to all necessary shareholder and regulatory approvals.

Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2004
1. Continuing Operations
The Companys ability to continue as a going concern is subject to obtaining financing and achieving profitable operations.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada.
(a) Stock-based compensation plan
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the new CICA Handbook Section 3870 Stock-Based Compensation and Other Stock-Based Payments, which recommends that fair value-based methodology for measuring compensation costs. The new section also permits, and the Company has adopted the use of the intrinsic value-based method, which recognizes compensation for awards to the employees only when the market price exceeds the exercise price at the date of grant, but requires pro-forma disclosure of earnings and earnings per share as if the fair value method had been adopted. |
(b) Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
(c) Income taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes whereby future income tax assets and liabilities are computed based on differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities on the balance sheet date and their corresponding tax values using the enacted income tax rates at each balance sheet date. Future income tax assets also result from unused loss carry-forwards and other deductions. The valuation of future income tax assets is reviewed annually and adjusted, if necessary, by use of a valuation allowance to reflect the estimated realizable amount.

International Gemini Technology Inc.
Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2004
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(d) Earnings (loss) per share
The Company uses the treasury stock method to compute the dilutive effect of options, warrants and similar instruments. Under this method the dilutive effect on earnings per share is recognized on the use of the proceeds that could be obtained upon exercise of options, warrants and similar instruments. It assumes that the proceeds would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period.
Loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the year.
(e) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized when the requirements as to performance for transactions involving services are met and ultimate collection is reasonably assured at the time of performance.
(f) Impairment of long-lived assets
On January 1, 2004, the Company early adopted the new CICA Handbook Section 3063 Impairment of Long-Lived Assets recommendations. These recommendations provide accounting guidance for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of impairment of long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with finite useful lives. They require the recognition of an impairment loss for a long-lived asset when events or changes in circumstances causes its carrying value to exceed the total undiscounted future cash flows expected from its use and eventual disposition. The impairment loss is calculated by deducting the fair value of the asset from its carrying value. This change in accounting policy has been applied prospectively. Adoption of CICA 3063 has no effect on these financial statements. |
3. Accounting Changes
Effective January 1, 2004, the Company adopted the recommendations of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (the CICA for stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments. These recommendations established standards for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments in exchange for goods and services. In 2004 and prior years, the stock-based compensation expense was recognized when share options were granted to employees and directors. The adoption of this policy has no effect on these financial statements.

Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2004
4. Financial Instruments
The Companys financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, investment, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. It is managements opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments due to the short term to maturity. The fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values.
The maximum credit risk exposure for all financial assets is the carrying value of these assets.
5. Investment
The investment was recorded at cost and represented a 3% interest in a private company, B.W.N. Oil Technologies Inc.
During the year ended December 31, 2004, the investment was sold to a company with a common director for $30,000 resulting in a loss of $16,024. Included in accounts receivable at December 31, 2004 is the sale amount of $30,000.
6. Related Party Transactions
During the year ended December 31, 2004, a company in which a director has an interest charged the Company $38,000 (2003: $38,000) for rent and management fees. The unpaid portion of these amounts, plus additional advances and other amounts due to directors, aggregating $55,395 (2003: $10,885) is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities at December 31, 2004.
A Company in which a director has an interest was charged $20,000 (2003: $3,000) for consulting fees during the year ended December 31, 2004. The unpaid portion of these fees in the amount of $20,000 (2003: $Nil) are included in accounts receivable.
See Note 5.
7. Share Capital
a) | The authorized capital of the Company comprises 100,000,000 Common shares without par value and 100,000,000 Series 1 Convertible Preferred shares without par value. The rights and restrictions of the Preferred shares are as follows: |
i) dividends shall be paid at the discretion of the directors;

THE ATTACHED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FORM AN INTEGRAL PART OF THIS MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND ARE HEREBY INCLUDED BY REFERENCE
Management Discussion and Analysis as of May 30, 2005
Management has been pursuing resource projects, including those involving precious metals exploration and development. These pursuits have strained the limited resources of the company. Every effort is being made to conclude a transaction that may return the Corporation to commercial activity.
In April 2005 the Corporation announced that it has entered into a subscription agreement with Outback Capital Inc. (dba Pinefalls Gold) a privately held Alberta corporation. The agreement calls for the Corporation to invest $200,000 into Pinefalls Gold via private placement.
Upon receiving proceeds from its private placement Pinefalls Gold will immediately commence recommended phase one exploration work on its seventeen (17) mining claims in the area of Bissett, Manitoba. The claims are included in the Rice Lake greenstone belt and cover an area of approximately 2800 hectares. The claims are the subject of a Qualifying Report dated June 30, 2004 prepared by Edward Sawitzky, P. Geo. of Arc Metals Ltd. (Arc). Arc prepared the report to standards dictated by National Instrument 43-101.
In exchange for its investment, the Corporation will receive 4 million units of Pinefalls Gold. Each unit will consist of one common share and one warrant to purchase an additional common share at $0.075 for two years. Prior to exercising its warrants the Corporation will own approximately 37% of the then outstanding 10.7 million common shares of Pinefalls Gold. Assuming the exercise of the warrants, the Corporation will own approximately 54% of Pinefalls Gold.
Separately, the Corporation has entered into an Option Agreement with one of the principal shareholders of Pinefalls Gold (the PFG Option) which entitles the Corporation to acquire a further 3 million common shares of Pinefalls Gold in exchange for one million common shares of the Corporation. The PFG Option is exercisable at the Corporations sole discretion until it expires on March 31, 2006.
The Corporation and Pinefalls Gold have entered into these arrangements on a non-arms length basis. The two companies have certain directors and principal shareholders in common. The Corporations directors with conflicts of interest have refrained from voting on the relevant resolutions. The Corporation is relying on exemptions 5.5(3)[corporation not listed on specified markets] and 5.7(3)[fair market value not more than $2,500,000] from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements of OSC Rule 61-501 regarding Related Party Transactions.
To enable Gemini to meet its funding obligations Gemini has arranged a non-brokered private placement to provide working capital to the Company. Gemini will issue up to 2 million units at $0.15 per unit, where each unit consists of one common share of Gemini (a Share) and one transferable share purchase warrant (a Warrant). Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one common share of Gemini for a term of 24 months, at a price of 18 cents per share. If the common shares of Gemini, at any time after six months after the closing date of the private placement, trade on a recognized stock exchange at a price of $0.50 per share or greater for 10 consecutive trading days, then Gemini can provide notice to the holders of the warrants and the warrants will expire 30 days after the notice is given.
Trend Analysis
The business of the Company entails significant risks. Any analysis of the trend of the companys activities would reveal this. And there is nothing to suggest that these trends will change.
The companys sole activity is its search for a suitable acquisition or acquisitions that can be made and financed at prices and terms that make business sense. Recently this has focused on the resource sector. Resource prices are at medium term to long-term highs, a condition that increases potential acquisition costs, and increases the corresponding risk. The same factors have reduced the supply of high quality opportunities.
World economic conditions, including the trade and budget deficits in the United States, have made the case for precious metals a compelling one. This, combined with the availability of capital for precious metals projects has expanded the acquisition search to include precious metals exploration and development opportunities.
A different set of circumstances has driven oil and gas prices to near world record prices. The greater industrialization of China and India, combined with the emergence of a significant affluent middle class in both countries combine with other factors to increase world demand for petroleum products. This increased demand appears to be permanent, although the price level also combines real or perceived worldwide product shortages, or supply dislocations. Any significant increase in supply will tend to moderate prices.
The company has regularly been behind major trends and as a result missed them.

Overview
The companys sole focus is on finding and completing a suitable acquisition, or suitable acquisitions. This activity is largely carried out by the directors and large shareholders at their expense. Accordingly its revenue is insignificant and certainly not material. Results can fluctuate on the basis of postal rate increases, or reductions in courier or long distance phone rates.
Results of Operations
The company has shown modest losses for the past several years. These losses result largely from having no revenue, rather than having unusual expenses. The expenses of the company are almost completely related to satisfying regulatory requirements, including the annual meeting, communication with shareholders; and seeking and evaluating acquisition prospects for suitability and ability to attract financing.
Fluctuations in Results
The Companys annual operating results fluctuate, but very little.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since the Company is organized in Canada, the Companys March 31, 2005 consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.
As at March 31, 2005, the Company had accumulated losses totaling $13,328,616. The Company had a working capital deficit of $9,989 as at March 31, 2005. The continuation of the Company is dependent upon the continued financial support of shareholders as well as obtaining long-term financing when the company concludes an appropriate merger or acquisition agreement.
As noted, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might arise from uncertainty. However, had the audit been conducted in accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards the auditors would have reflected these concerns in their report and would have included an explanatory paragraph in their report raising concern about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
As at March 31, 2005 the Company had cash and term deposits of $1,820 and a working capital deficit of $9,989.
