Mineral Properties

Since 1996, the Company has held a 65% interest in Minera Montoro S.A.de C.V. (“Montoro”) which in turn has a 100% interest in mining concessions located in the state of Michoacan, Mexico, designated as the La Balsa property. Mr. Jorge E. Ordonez and his associates ("Ordonez") own the remaining 35% of Montoro. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2006, the Company executed a binding letter of agreement to sell its 65% interest in Montoro to Nexvu Capital Corp for a total consideration of $2,235,000. An initial deposit of $50,000 was received during the year ended January 31, 2006. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2007, the original closing date was extended because of certain accounting and legal issues that were not resolved until late 2006. The first installment of $695,000 was received January 30, 2007 and the second installment of $745,000 was received on March 29, 2007. The final payment of $745,000 was received July 9, 2007 and as a result, the Company no longer holds any interests in Mexico. All applicable taxes owing to the Government of Mexico have been paid.

In order to complete the sale to Nexvu Capital Corp., the Company repurchased a 21.6% interest in La Balsa project held by The Astra Ventures Inc. a holding company controlled by a former Chairman of the Company and a Director. The Company agreed to repay capital contributions made by The Astra Ventures Inc. to Fischer-Watt Gold in the sum of $864,068, to be repaid in conjunction with the receipt of proceeds from Nexvu Capital Corp. As of October 31, 2007, the debt to The Astra Ventures Inc. has been entirely repaid.

As consideration to The Astra Ventures Inc. for the lost business opportunity, the Company agreed to grant an option to them for a total of 10,000,000 shares of common stock. The option granted is for 4,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.30 per share, for 5 years, 4,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.40 per share for 7 years, and 2,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.60 per share for 10 years. These options were authorized in 2005.

Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates net income (loss) per share as required by SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding.

(4)

Going Concern Consideration

The Company has incurred substantial operating losses of $17,065,366 since inception and had a stockholders’ deficit and working capital deficit of $750,409 at July 31, 2008 and no revenue producing operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The ability of the Company to achieve its operating goals and thus positive cash flows from operations is dependent upon the future market price of metals, future capital raising efforts, and the ability to achieve future operating efficiencies anticipated with increased production levels. Management's plans will require additional financing, reduced exploration activity or disposition of or joint ventures with respect to mineral properties. While the Company has been successful in these capital raising endeavors in the past, and currently has cash on hand in the amount of $32,855, there can be no assurance that its future efforts and anticipated operating improvements will be successful.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

(5)

Commitments

On June 10, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with private individuals regarding the Cruce exploration project, located in northwest Pinal County, Arizona. The Company acquired a 100% interest in the mineral lease for $15,000 and the issuance of 100,000 restricted common shares of its stock. The vendors will retain a 2% Net Smelter Return royalty and received an advance royalty of $20,000 on the first anniversary of the agreement, $25,000 on the second anniversary and will receive $25,000 on subsequent anniversaries. These advance royalties will be deductible from future production royalty payments.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

Fischer-Watt Gold Company, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, "Fischer-Watt", "FWG" or the "Company"), was formed under the laws of the State of Nevada in 1986. Fischer-Watt's primary business is mining and mineral exploration, and to that end to own, acquire, improve, sell, lease, convey lands or mineral claims or any right, title or interest therein; and to search, explore, prospect or drill for and exploit ores and minerals therein or thereupon.

The Company has held a 65% interest in Minera Montoro S.A. de C.V. (“Montoro”) since 1996, which in turn acquired a 100% interest in mining concessions located in the state of Michoacan, Mexico, designated as the La Balsa property. Mr. Jorge E. Ordonez and his associates owned the remaining 35% of Montoro. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2006, the Company executed a letter of agreement to sell its 65% interest in Montoro to Nexvu Capital Corp. (“Nexvu”) for a total consideration of $2,235,000. The sale of this interest was subsequently assigned by Nexvu to Rogue River Resources, Inc. (“Rogue River”). An initial deposit of $50,000 was received during the year ended January 31, 2006. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2007, the original closing date was extended because of certain accounting and legal issues that were not resolved until late 2006. The first of three installments of $695,000 was received January 30, 2007 and the remaining two installments of $745,000 each were received, the last having been received on July 9, 2007. All applicable taxes owing to the Government of Mexico have been paid.

As the sale of the interest in Montoro is now complete, the Company no longer holds any interest, other than a future royalty, in Mexico.

In order to effect the sale to Nexvu/Rogue River, the Company repurchased a 21.6% interest in the La Balsa project held by The Astra Ventures Inc. (“Astra”) a Company controlled by a Director of the Company. The Company had agreed to repay capital contributions made by Astra to Fischer-Watt in the sum of $864,068, to be repaid in conjunction with the receipt of proceeds from Nexvu/Rogue River. During the last fiscal year, the Company repaid $864,068 to Astra.

______________________________________________________________________________

As consideration to Astra for the lost business opportunity, the Company has agreed to grant an option to it for a total of 10,000,000 shares of common stock. The option granted is for 4,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.30 per share, for 5 years, 4,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.40 per share for 7 years, and 2,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.60 per share for 10 years. These options were authorized in 2005.

The Company is currently seeking to acquire an advanced-stage precious metal and/or base-metal mineral property with a view to developing it into a cash generating, profitable, producing mine. The Company’s chief area of interest is in the southwestern United States. Numerous opportunities have been evaluated to date and continue to be evaluated. The Company’s evaluation team has looked at both potentially high-grade underground situations as well as lower grade open-pittable scenarios.

CRUCE PROJECT

The Company, on June 10, 2006, entered into an agreement with private individuals regarding the Cruce exploration project. This property is located in northwest Pinal County, Arizona in T8S, R14E, section 16 and has a history of gold and copper exploration. The Company acquired a 100% interest in the mineral lease for $15,000 and the issuance of 100,000 restricted common shares of its stock. The vendors will retain a 2% Net Smelter Return royalty and received an advance royalty of $20,000 on the first anniversary, $25,000 on the second anniversary (which has been paid) and will receive $25,000 on subsequent anniversaries. These advance royalties will be deductible from future production royalty payments.

Location

The property is situated on a 560 acre State lease identified as permit number 08- 113008. The Company has staked and now holds 32 additional lode claims, designated as CR 3 – 453, on surrounding BLM ground covering an area of approximately 660 acres. The property lies about 30 miles north of Tucson, AZ. The county maintained Willow Springs Road, accessible year-round from Oracle Junction, crosses the property. A high-voltage transmission line cuts across the property. There is no other infrastructure in the area.

Geology

Gold mineralization on the property is hosted within faulted blocks in well-altered sections of the pre-Cambrian age Oracle granite. Stockwork-type gold mineralization has developed within a highly altered, mylonitised, intrusive rock unit now exposed at the surface. To the east, the area is covered by Tertiary age volcanic rocks.

History

Adits, shallow shafts and pits of unknown historic age are in evidence on the property. Early work by prospectors was centered around the Hot Boy inclined shaft. This shaft was deepened to a depth of 165 feet by a Mr. Cruce who made several shipments of ore before abandoning the property.

______________________________________________________________________________

In the early 1960's the Inspiration Copper Company carried out a 20 hole diamond drilling program in search of copper. Hydrothermally altered rocks containing copper mineralization were encountered but, due to a complicated land situation, Inspiration did not continue its exploration.

In the early 1980's, core drilling north-east of the Hot Boy shaft by a private partnership reportedly intercepted 106 feet of gold mineralization grading 0.044 ounces of gold per ton (oz.Au/t). This included an intercept of 0.153 oz.Au/t from surface to a depth of 24 feet. Strong gold mineralization in this area was further substantiated in 1987 by a reverse circulation drill hole that intersected 0.054 oz.Au/t from a depth of 30 feet to 60 feet. This included a 5 foot interval of 0.198 oz.Au/t.

A work program in 1986 and 87 included surface rock chip and soil sampling on a 200 x 100 foot grid over a 7,000 foot strike length. Approximately 330 rock samples defined several north-south elongate geochemical anomalies exceeding 1 part per million (ppm) gold. Of particular interest, southeast of the Hot Boy shaft, was a 2.6 ppm rock chip zone measuring about 500 feet across in an east-west direction and 1,200 feet north-south. The work program included an 11 hole reverse-circulation drill campaign totaling 705 feet. Highlights of this drilling included 30 feet of 0.054 oz.Au/t, 15 feet of 0.015 oz.Au/t and 30 feet of 0.023 oz.Au/t.

Between 1988 and 1990, Freeport McMoRan Gold Company carried out geological mapping, a four line Induced Polarization and Resistivity geophysical survey and a wide-spaced 14 hole reverse-circulation drilling program totaling 5,805 feet. Hole CR-4 from surface to a depth of 60 feet returned an average grade of 0.032 oz.Au/t.

Current Exploration

In July 2007, Fischer-Watt completed its first, limited, soil and rock-chip geochemical survey on the property. This first pass survey, along with geological mapping, covered an area of about 1,000 x 1,500 meters. Over two hundred samples were taken at approximately 20 meter intervals on a sampling grid with 40 meter line spacing.

This survey located two parallel zones of anomalous gold mineralization trending north-northwest and dipping gently to the east, referred to as the East and West Zones. Both these zones appeared to extend beyond the limits of the initial survey grid.

On the east side of the sampling grid the East Zone anomaly, lying immediately adjacent to the Hot Boy shaft, was identified as extending for over 100 meters. Two historical holes drilled some distance to the east intersected gold mineralization near surface, indicating that the surface anomaly dips gently to the east. Further surface geochemical sampling has now extended the East Zone for up to 450 meters along a south-southeast trend from the Hot Boy shaft. The zone ranges in widths from 30 to 70 meters. This is the strongest anomaly defined on the property to date.

______________________________________________________________________________

In addition, evidence was also found of the possible existence of veins that could represent the feeder system to the stockworks seen in surface outcrops. Follow-up work will be carried out to identify vein systems that may have acted as feeders into the diffuse lower grade mineralization.

Sampling on the west side of the grid identified the West Zone anomaly over a 75 meter width and 250 meter length as a greater than 0.5 parts per million (ppm) gold-in-soil anomaly. A hole in the center of this area, designated as CR-4 and drilled by Freeport Gold Inc. in the early 1990’s, reportedly encountered mineralization grading 0.032 oz.Au/t from surface to a depth of 60 feet. The zone remains open at both its north and south ends and recent sampling indicates that there may be an extension of the zone lying approximately 100 meters to the north.

Further geochemical surveys and geological mapping has resulted in the identification of two additional anomalous zones; the South zone to the southeast of the West zone and the Copper Oxide zone to the southeast of the East zone anomalies.

At the south end of the project area the South Zone has been identified based on the silicification and gossanous textures along contact boundaries of a 2 meter wide aplite dike for a 200 meter length. Continuing north for a further 300 meters is a 75 to 100 meter wide exposure of sheared and brecciated rocks with a lot of old surface workings and prospect pits.

The fourth area, referred to as the Copper Oxide Zone, is a recently identified area where a series of east and southeast dipping faults have been recognized as potential conduits for mineralizing fluids giving rise to a surface geochemical copper anomaly.

All the geochemical samples were analysed for multi-elements by International Plasma Labs Ltd. in Richmond, B.C. Canada.

During the first quarter of 2008, Fischer-Watt carried out its first drill program on the property. The Company used an Air-track drill rig to drill a close-spaced grid of 63 shallow holes to test three of the four anomalous zones; the East, West and Copper Oxide zones. Holes were drilled along a series of east-west oriented lines spaced 30 or 60 meters apart with holes along each line being 10 or 20 meters apart. The holes were about 80 feet in depth with 5,000 feet of drilling being completed. Readers are cautioned that an Air-track drill is used solely as a reconnaissance tool since the hole is unlined which may result in some contamination of samples. However, it provides an excellent, low-cost method of collecting indicative samples.

______________________________________________________________________________

East Zone

A total of 33 vertical holes were drilled along 8 lines for a total footage of 2,574 feet. Gold mineralization is found within a mylonitised series of shear-faults cutting through the pre-Cambrian age granite. The mineralization has been traced by this drilling for a distance of 700 feet along strike, and down-dip for about 250 feet. To the east, the zone becomes covered by a layer of Tertiary age volcanic rocks where drilling to test the continuation of the zone has not yet been carried out. Continuity of mineralization was good throughout the zone.

Each of the drill holes was approximately 80 feet deep and samples were taken in each hole over 10 foot intervals along the entire length of each hole. Of the 33 holes drilled in this area, 24 of them contained mineralization of at least 0.007 oz.Au/t over 10 feet. Of these, the following 14 vertical holes returned stronger and longer sections of mineralization:



Hole #	oz.Au/t	interval ft.

F-1	0.015	40
F-2	0.017	40

West Zone

A total of 23 holes were drilled along 10 lines for a total footage of 1,802 feet. The geological setting, and the strike and dip of the mineralization, is the same as in the East Zone. This drilling has traced the mineralization along strike for about 800 feet and down-dip for about 250 feet. The zone remains open to the northwest where gossanous outcrops can be seen on the surface. Beyond this area there are numerous surface pits that were dug by earlier prospectors giving an indication that the mineralization continues in this direction.

Of the 23 holes drilled in this zone, 21 of them returned assays with at least 0.007 oz.Au/t over 10 feet. The following 12 holes returned stronger and longer sections of mineralization:

Copper Oxide Zone

A total of 7 holes were drilled along 4 lines for a total of 570 feet in this zone. The continuity of the copper and gold mineralization is good throughout the zone but at sub-economic grades. Hole I-1, which was the hole collared furthest to the east, encountered 0.72 % Cu over 10 feet at a depth of 60–70 feet. A prospective target therefore remains untested here where mineralization is inferred to continue down-dip along the detachment fault.

All the drill samples were analyzed by fire-assay at Jacobs Assay Office in Tucson, AZ.

The results of this drill program indicate that Fischer-Watt has located two zones of pervasive low-grade gold mineralization.. Each of these two zones strikes in a northwest direction, has a true thickness of about 50 foot, lies just below the surface, and dips gently to the east at about 30 degrees. Gold mineralization on the Cruce property is therefore in a favorable structural setting that could be amenable to open-pit mining.

As a result of this success the Company is planning to carry out ground geophysical surveys in order to trace the extensions of the known mineralization. If these surveys meet with success then a further follow-up drill program is envisaged.

The Cruce project currently has no reserves and there is no assurance that the project will advance from its present exploration stage. All of Fischer-Watt’s exploration on the property to date has been carried out under the supervision of the Company’s geological consultant, Mr. N. Barr, a qualified and experienced geologist with extensive local geological knowledge. The property has also been physically examined in the field on several occasions by the Company’s President, Mr. P. Bojtos P.Eng., who is a qualified geologist.

______________________________________________________________________________

The work programs to date have cost approximately $80,000, which was funded from the Company’s treasury.

______________________________________________________________________________

In addition, the Company continues to evaluate other projects for possible acquisition. The Company continues to focus on projects in the western part of United States – primarily in the search for gold, copper, zinc or uranium.

The Company currently has sufficient capital to conduct its business but does not necessarily have sufficient capital to carry out any significant exploration program or to acquire a significant property.

The Company has cash on hand at July 31, 2008 of $32,855, and its working capital deficit position of $750,409 brings into focus the ability of the Company to continue operations without further financing. Total current liabilities at July 31, 2008 amounted to $787,764 and only $13,310 is due to trade creditors. The balance of the current liabilities, being $774,454, is due to shareholders where there are no specific terms of repayment for either of the demand notes, accrued expenses or interest owing.

The following outlines results to date in the current fiscal year for the quarter ended July 31, 2008 and outlines our plan of operation for the foreseeable future. It also analyzes our financial condition at July 31, 2008 and compares that condition to our financial condition at year-end January 31, 2008. This information should be read in conjunction with the other financial information and reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), especially our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended January 31, 2008.

Plan of Operation

The Company’s plan of operation for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2009 is to continue with work on its mineral property in Arizona. The Company continues to evaluate other mining properties in the western United States for possible acquisition and continues to explore various financing alternatives for the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of July 31, 2008, the Company had cash on hand of $32,855 and current liabilities of $787,764 including $774,454 owed to related parties. Current accounts payable amounted to $13,310 and accrued expenses amounted to $79,936, which are due to related parties. The working capital deficit at July 31, 2008 was $750,409 compared to $557,572 at January 31, 2008. This represents an increase in the working capital deficit of $192,837, for the six months ended July 31, 2008. This deterioration in working capital is the result of the loss experienced for the six month period ended July 31, 2008.

There is no specific term of repayment for either the demand notes, accrued expenses or other debt due to related parties. Management recognizes that the Company does not have sufficient funds to retire its remaining debt and to sustain its operations. The Company continues to source out other appropriate financing in either equity or debt format, and it continues to seek out other mineral properties, but there is no assurance said financing is available or that said properties can be acquired on reasonable terms and conditions.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended July 31, 2008, the Company had an operating loss of $93,472 compared to net income of $429,125 for the three month period ended July 31, 2007. In the three month period ended July 31, 2007, the Company received $770,000 related to the sale of its Montoro project. The Company received its final payments regarding the Montoro project in the three month period ended October 31, 2007.

During the three month period ended July 31, 2008, there was limited exploration expense in the amount of $26,560 compared to $30,551 in the three month period ended July 31, 2007. This exploration activity was directed to the Cruce property in Arizona, which is the only exploration project with an ongoing work program as the Cambridge property in Nevada was returned to its owners.

General and administrative expenses amounted to $66,946 for the three months ended July 31, 2008 compared to $125,955 for the three months ended July 31, 2007. The exploration expense and the general and administrative expenses comprise almost all of the expenditures by the Company in the three month period ended July 31, 2008.

While the Company currently has cash on hand of $32,855, and current trade accounts payable of $13,310, the Company realizes that it will require additional financing, reduced exploration activity, or the disposition of its remaining mineral properties. While the Company has been successful in these capital-raising endeavors in the past, there can be no assurance that its future efforts, and anticipated operating improvements will be successful.

In the six month period ended July 31, 2008, general and administrative expenses amounted to $141,458 vs. $173,560 for the six month period ended July 31, 2007.

Exploration expense in the six month period ended July 31, 2008 was moderately higher at $51,902 vs. $45,830 for the six month period ended July 31, 2007.

During the six month period ended July 31, 2008, other income was zero whereas in the comparative six month period ended July 31, 2007, other income amounted to $1,565,000, representing proceeds received from the sale of La Balsa. Income taxes of $384,000 reduced the proceeds in 2007 to $1,181,000.

Commitments and Contingencies

Management is not aware of any legal action against the Company.

Foreign Currency Exchange

The Company accounts for foreign currency translation in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation" ("SFAS No.52"). The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Income and expenses are translated using the weighted average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. The related translation adjustments are reflected in the accumulated translation adjustment section of shareholders' equity.

Going Concern Consideration

As the independent certified public accountants have indicated in their report on the financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2008, and as shown in the financial statements, the Company has experienced significant operating losses that have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $17,065,366 at July 31, 2008. These conditions raise doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

______________________________________________________________________________

The ability of the Company to achieve its operating goals and thus positive cash flows from operations is dependent upon the future market price of gold, future capital raising efforts, and the ability to achieve future operating efficiencies anticipated with increased production levels. Management's plans will require additional financing, reduced exploration activity, or disposition of or joint ventures with respect to mineral properties. While the Company has been successful in these capital-raising endeavors in the past, there can be no assurance that its future efforts, and anticipated operating improvements will be successful. Depending on the level of exploration activity, the Company does have adequate capital to continue its contemplated business plan through January 31, 2009, but does not have sufficient capital to carry out an extensive exploration program without additional capital. The Company is presently investigating all of the alternatives identified above to meet its short-term liquidity needs. The Company believes that it can arrange a transaction or transactions to meet its short-term liquidity needs, however there can be no assurance that any such transactions will be concluded or that if concluded they will be on terms favorable to the Company.
