ITEM 3  KEY INFORMATION 

World Ventures Inc. (formerly Nu-Dawn Resources Inc.) was incorporated on October 3, 1980 by registration of its Memorandum and Articles under the Company Act of the Province of British Columbia and has its head office in Nanaimo, British Columbia. The Company is an exploration stage company. Since its formation, the Company has been actively engaged primarily in the acquisition, and exploration of mineral properties. The Company currently holds resource properties in Canada, United States of America, Costa Rica, and Panama and intends to seek and acquire additional properties worthy of exploration and development.

The Company’s investment and expenditure on exploration properties comprise a significant portion of the Company’s assets. Realization of the Company’s investment in those assets is dependent upon obtaining the necessary financing to continue exploration and development of the properties, the attainment of successful production from the properties or from the proceeds of their disposal.

Exploration and development requires significant amounts of capital and even when funded, the outcome is dependent on finding sufficient quantities and grades of minerals, permitting the project, and dealing with various stakeholder groups. This process takes time, and many factors including commodity prices, political and economic conditions may change, affecting the viability of the property.

In September 1989, subject to the approval of the Vancouver Stock Exchange, Raynerd B. Carson and Dydar Resources Ltd. (Dydar), a corporation owned by Raynerd B. Carson and members of his family, agreed to settle certain litigation with Nor-Quest Resources Ltd. (Nor-Quest), then the majority shareholder of the Company. Included in the terms of such settlement was the agreement by Dydar to acquire the 7,200,000 shares of common stock of the Company owned by Nor-Quest. Upon the approval of the transaction by the Vancouver Stock Exchange, Dydar acquired the shares (and subsequently transferred beneficial ownership of 1,000,000 of such shares to an unaffiliated third party). Subsequently, two members of the Board of Directors of the Company resigned and were replaced by Raynerd B. Carson and two other nominees of Dydar.

7




In November 1989, upon approval by the Vancouver Stock Exchange, Dydar subscribed to purchase, by way of private placement, 2,000,000 Units of the Company’s securities, consisting of 2,000,000 shares of common stock and a stock purchase warrant to acquire an additional 2,000,000 shares for a purchase price of $300,000. Dydar subscribed for the private placement of which Raynerd B. Carson is the President, a director and substantial stockholder. Dydar exercised its warrant October 30, 1990 bringing its holdings to 10,200,000 shares.

During the year ended October 31, 1991, the Company issued 476,388 shares, to Dydar (a company controlled by a director and officer), for consideration of $160,781 pursuant to a private placement. The consideration consisted of cash of $30,000 and the assumption of accounts payable of $130,781 by the investor. In addition, the investor received warrants purchasing an additional 476,388 shares at $0.3375 per share until May 22, 1992 and at $0.39 per share from May 23, 1992 to May 22, 1993. As at October 31, 1991, no warrants have been exercised. The 476,388 shares issued to Dydar bring its holdings to 10,676,388 shares. 425,901 shares were sold during the fiscal period via private sale or market sales.

During 1992, Dydar purchased 1,066,667 shares of common stock for $160,000. During 1992 Dydar sold during the fiscal period via private sale or market sales 1,138,667 shares to bring its total to 10,178,487 shares. During 1993 fiscal period Dydar exercised part of its option for a total of 784,470 shares and during 1993 sold 784,958 to hold 10,177,999 shares.

During 1994 Dydar sold 1,400,000 shares and purchased 666,666 from treasury through the takedown of units and warrants at $0.15 per share and Dydar held 9,444,665 shares. During the year 1995, Dydar purchased 56,500 shares $0.14 average per share bringing the total to 9,501,165. During 1996, Curitiba S.A. purchased from Dydar Resources Ltd. 7,813,665 shares of Nu-Dawn Resources Inc. for investment purposes. As of October 31, 2006, Dydar Resources Inc. held 100,000 shares of World Ventures Inc. in trust for Curitiba S.A.

B.  Capitalization and Indebtedness 

This item is not applicable.

C.  Reasons for the Offer and Use of the Proceeds 

This item is not applicable.

D.  Risk Factors 

World Ventures Inc. is an Exploration Stage Company

There are certain risk factors that could have material affects that are un-quantifiable at present due to the nature of the Company’s industry and other considerations including, without limitations as follows:

Exploration Development - mineral exploration involves a high degree of risk and few properties result in successful production. Even when a prospect is discovered and designated, the probability of an individual prospect ever having proven reserves is extremely remote. In all probability the properties described herein may not contain any reserves and funds spent on exploration may not find any reserves. Even if the Company completes anticipated exploration programs and is successful in identifying a mineral deposit, substantial additional funds will need to be expended on further drilling and engineering studies before it can be ascertained whether there is a commercially viable mineral deposit on the property; 
 
Operating Risk – all properties in which the Company has a direct or indirect interest will be subject to all the hazards and risks normally associated with exploration and development any of which could result in damage to property, and possible environmental damage; 
 
Commodity Prices – the price of the Company’s shares, its financial results, and exploration activities have been or may in the future be, adversely affected by declines in the price of mineral commodity prices; 
 
Foreign Operation Risk – properties in Costa Rica and Panama are affected by changes in regulation of shift in the political attitudes, which are beyond the control of the Company; 
 
Financing and Acquisition – exploration activities require substantial additional financing. Failure to obtain financing results in delayed or postponed exploration and/or acquisition of resource properties; 
 
Environmental – all phases of the Company’s exploration are subject to environmental regulation in the various jurisdictions of these resource properties. There are no assurances that future changes in environmental regulation will not adversely affect the Company; 
   
Competition – the mining industry is intensely competitive industry, and the Company competes with numerous companies that have greater financial resources and technical facilities available. 

World Ventures Inc. has a Lack of Cash Flows and Financing May Not Be Available to the Company

World Ventures Inc. is a developing Company and does not yet have sufficient revenues to meet its yearly operating and capital requirements. The Company has historically raised funds necessary to conduct its business primarily through issuance of equity or debt. There is no guarantee the Company will be able to continue to raise funds through additional equity issuances, project debt financing, joint ventures and /or partnering arrangements.

World Ventures Inc. is Subject to Certain Mining Hazards

The business of mining is subject to certain types of risks and hazards, including environmental hazards, and industrial accidents. Such occurrences could result in damage to, or destruction of, mineral properties or production facilities, personal injury or death, environmental damages, delays in mining, monetary losses and possible legal liability. Any payments made with regards to such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on World Ventures Inc.'s financial position. The Company carries insurance to protect itself against certain risks of mining and processing to the extent that it is economically feasible but which may not be adequate. World Ventures Inc. currently does not have any active mining in progress.

World Ventures Inc. will Require Regulatory Approvals and Operating Permits.

In the ordinary course of business, exploration companies are required to seek regulatory approvals, and operating permits for the federal, provincial and local governments for commencement of new operations. Obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals and operating permits is a complex and time-consuming process involving numerous agencies and often involving public hearings and costly undertaking by the Company. The duration and success of regulatory and permitting efforts are contingent upon many variables outside the Company’s control. Environment protection permitting, including the approval of reclamation plans, may increase costs and cause delays depending on the nature of the activity to be permitted and the interpretation of applicable requirements implemented by the permitting authority. There can be no assurance that all regulatory approvals and operating permits will be obtained and, if obtained, the costs involved will not exceed those previously estimated by the Company. It is impossible the costs and delays associated with the compliance with such standards and regulations could become such that he Company could not proceed with the development or operations of Resource Property.

Abandonment and Reclamation Costs and Regulations May Change

World Ventures Inc. is responsible for complying with terms and conditions of environmental and regulatory approvals and all laws and regulations regarding the abandonment of the site and reclamation of its lands at the end of its economic life, which abandonment and reclamation costs may be substantial. A breach of such legislation and/or regulations may result in the imposition of fines and penalties, including an order for cessation of operations at the site until satisfactory remedies are made. Abandonment and reclamation costs are estimates and since they will be a function of regulatory requirements at the time, costs of goods and services at the time and the value of the salvaged equipment may be more or less than the abandonment and reclamation costs. World Ventures Inc. currently does not have any active mining in progress.

Independent Reviews Provide No Assurance of Future Results

Although third parties have prepared reviews, reports and projections relating to the viability and expected performance of the resource properties, it cannot be assured that these reports, reviews and projections and the assumptions on which they are based will, over time, prove to be accurate.

Personnel Risks May Impact the Company’s Ability to Carry Out its Operational Plans

At October 31, 2007, the Company had 3 directors and one part-time employee. The Company is relies on the directors, contractors, and consultants to assist in executing operations and providing technical guidance. As the Company anticipating growth and expansion of its operations will be dependant on the ability to attract and hold knowledgeable, expert, experienced management and employees to explore and develop it’s mineral properties.

There is a Possibility of Dilution to Present and Prospective Shareholders

Any transaction involving the issuance of additional World Ventures Inc shares or securities may result in dilution, possibly substantial, to present and prospective holders of Common Shares.

Title Risks May Result in Title Claims or Disputes

The Company is satisfied that it has good and proper right, title and interest in and to the Resource Properties that are currently under exploration. Aboriginal peoples have claimed aboriginal title and rights to a substantial portion of western Canada. Certain aboriginal peoples have filed claims against the Government of Canada.

Enforcement of Civil Liabilities by Present and Prospective Shareholders May be Adversely Affected

The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under the federal securities laws of the US may be affected adversely by the fact that the Company is incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada, that the independent auditors who have audited the Company's financial statements and some or all of its directors and officers may be residents of Canada or elsewhere, and that all or a substantial portion of the Company's assets and said persons are located outside the US. As a result, it may be difficult for holders of the Common Shares to effect service of process within the US upon people who are not residents of the US or to realize in the US upon judgments of courts of the US predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal securities laws of the US.

ITEM 4  INFORMATION ON WORLD VENTURES INC. 

A.  History and Development of World Ventures Inc. 

World Ventures Inc. (the “Company”) (formerly Nu-Dawn Resources Inc.) effected a name change on June 28th, 1999. World Ventures Inc. (formerly Nu-Dawn Resources Inc.) was incorporated on October 3rd, 1980 by registration of its Memorandum and Articles under the Company Act of the Province of British Columbia.

World Ventures Inc.’s head office is located at 102 Piper Crescent, Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada, V9T 3G3, Telephone: (250) 756-0291. The Company’s registered office is located at Suite 1600 – 609 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

Since its formation, the Company has been engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. In 1999, the Company changed its direction of business to pursue real estate and land development. In 2001, the Company ceased its pursuit of real estate and land development and resumed its historical business of acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. The Company presently operates the mineral exploration and development business in the United States, Canada, Panama and Costa Rica. The Company continues to maintain its mineral holdings with the intent to explore, develop and recruit buyers or joint venture partners for their projects. The Company will continue to pursue mining projects in North and Central America.

Principal Capital Expenditures

The Company has invested principally in its resource properties in the Lapon Canyon - Nevada Property, Crystal Springs -Saskatchewan Property, and Triton - Ontario Property over the last five years. Over the past five years, $480,724 has been invested in resource properties for legal fees, consulting fees, lease costs, and travel expenditures. The Company’s claims lapsed on the Triton – Ontario Property therefore the property was written down. There have been no significant divestitures or disposals over the past three years.

B.  Business Overview 

World Ventures Inc. remains in the exploration stage. The Company is not presently engaged in extracting minerals from any of its properties and has not generated any revenues to date. Our focus for the last five years has been on their principal resource properties; Lapon Canyon Property, located in Mineral County Nevada, near Reno Nevada, United States; Triton Property located in the MacMurchy Township, Shining Tree Mining District, Ontario, Canada; and Crystal Springs Property, located in Central Saskatchewan, Canada.

The mining industry in which the Company is engaged is in general, highly competitive. Competitors include well-capitalized mining companies, independent mining companies and other companies having financial and other resources far greater than those of the Company. The Company encounters strong competition in attempting to acquire additional mineral properties and interest in commercially mineable ore reserves in the State of Nevada. In general, properties with a higher grade of recoverable mineral and/or which are more readily mineable afford the owners a competitive advantage in that the cost of production is lower. Thus, a degree of competition exists between those engaged in the mining industry to acquire the most valuable properties. The Company’s competitive position in the mining business in general, and in the State of Nevada in particular, is insignificant

There has been no public announcement of, nor has the Company otherwise made public information about, any new product or industry segment of the Company requiring the investment by the Company of a material amount of its total assets, or which is otherwise material to the Company’s operations. The Company has not engaged in any material research and development activities during its last three fiscal years except to the extent that it conducted mineral exploration activities However, should the Company determine to commence production of a resource property, this would require large expenditures and commitment of funds neither of which are presently available to the Company.

The sources and availability of raw materials essential to the Company’s business are limited in the context that mineral bearing ore of a high enough commercial grade to justify development must be discovered or otherwise acquired and explored before a production decision can be made and implemented. Mining projects are dependant on permitting, water supply, utilities and roads. The Company anticipates no lack of materials, supplies and services.

The Company has no material patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises or concessions except insofar as mining claims or properties acquired from the Canadian, American, Panamian and Costa Rican governments. The Company believes it is in compliance with all applicable obligations regarding such titles. The Company’s business is seasonal only to the extent that severe winter conditions may limit the Company’s exploratory activities or future mill operating activities.

11




The Company is not dependent upon a single or few customers for revenues. The nature of the Company’s business precludes a backlog of orders. No portion of the Company’s business is subject to renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts or subcontracts at the election of the government. The Company does not foresee that there is any risk to the conduct of its business in the United States, Canada, Panama, and Costa Rica.

The Company, like any business involved in the extraction or processing of mineral properties, may be required to make extensive capital expenditures in the future to protect the environment and to comply with applicable environmental regulations in connection with any exploration, development, mining or milling activities. As of the end of 2009 fiscal year, the Company was engaged in no such activities. However, such capital expenditures or requirements could effect the Company’s competitive position in the business and, conceivably, could limit the Company’s availability to enter into some projects. No capital expenditures for environmental control facilities have been made and the Company does not expect to make any such expenditure during the current or coming fiscal year.

RESOURCE PROPERTIES

Triton Property, McMurchy Township, Shining Tree Mining District, Ontario, Canada
Potential Mineral Commodity: Gold

On June 3, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase 100% right, title and interest in to the property with respect to Claims L-4247576 7 units; L-4247577 1 unit located in MacMurchy Twp. In consideration for the acquisition of the Property the Company has paid the vendors $10,000 cash upon execution of the agreement; and issuance of 250,000 common shares; and additional $20,000 cash and issuance of 250,000 common shares upon the anniversary date of the agreement and subject to a 1% NSR. The Company may re-purchase a ¾% NSR from the vendors in consideration of $500,000. This property is located in MacMurchy Township, Larder Lake, Mining District, Ontario, Canada as shown in Figure 1, 2, and 3.

The Property is in the exploration stage. There are no known mineral resources on the property. There are no immediate planned exploration programs for the Property. Work requirements of $200 per claim per year are required to maintain the Property in good standing. Anticipated work on the Property will be funded by either capital raised by equity funding or joint venture partnership funding. Access to the Property is by light-truck on unimproved logging roads. Water is available on the Property. Power for any operations would be provided by portable equipment as the Property is remote from power lines.

Historically the Company held a 50% interest in a joint-venture basis with Greater Temagami Mines Ltd. (“Temagami”), an unaffiliated corporation, in five unsurveyed mining claims in the Shiningtree area of the Larder Lake mining division, Ontario, Canada. In 2004, the Company acquired an additional 50% interest in the Triton property from Temagami Mines Ltd., subject to a 1% royalty payable to Teck-Cominco Limited (Temagami being a wholly-owned subsidiary). World Ventures Inc. had entered into a letter of intent with Starfire Minerals Inc., whereby Starfire could earn a 50% interest in the Triton Property by providing exploration expenditures of $500,000 over a five-year period. Under this agreement World Ventures Inc. would not have committed any funds to this project until Starfire Minerals Inc. earned a 50% interest. In addition, World Ventures Inc. would have received 200,000 common shares of Starfire Minerals Inc. upon finalization of the agreement.

Starfire Minerals Inc. informed the Company that they had carried out a ground magnetometer and electromagnetic survey on the Triton property. Starfire Minerals Inc. further advised the Company that approximately 800 acres of mining claims had been added to the Triton property. These additional claims have since lapsed. On July 18th, 2005 the Company announced that Starfire Minerals Inc. had relinquished its right to earn 50% interest in the property. In November 2005, the Company carried out an E-M survey on the Triton Property to cover assessment work obligations. In late 2007, the Company conduced additional surface sampling of vein structures, largely for assessment work purposes to maintain the claims in good standing.

The Property is underlain by Precambrian-aged metavolcanic which contains occurrences of quartz veins containing gold values as reported in historical reports. A prospect shaft to 110 feet in depth with 145 feet of lateral workings is described in old Company reports. Gold assay values reported are historical in nature and cannot be relied upon. Drilling conducted by Teck-Cominco in 1985-1988 is reported to have intersected gold values but this information is historical in nature and cannot be relied upon. In March 2009, the Company claims lapsed, and the Company has written off its investment of $8,928 in the property.

Crystal Springs Property, Central Saskatchewan, Canada
Potential Mineral Commodities: Diamonds, Gold, Copper and Iron

The Company acquired mineral rights covering 540 acres, Section 21, Township 44, Range 20, West of the Second Meridian, near Crystal Springs area, near Fort a la Corne, Saskatchewan, Canada as shown on Figure 4. This tract of land is prospective for diamonds, gold, copper and iron, is held as private land mineral rights. The Company also held Saskatchewan Mineral Claims covering 57,000 acres (23,700 hectares) that were filed in July 2005, but they are no longer held.

This land holding as shown in Figure 4 lies to the south of a regional diamond exploration play in the vicinity of Fort a la Corne. Diamond exploration began in the late 1980’s and has accelerated recently. Numerous diamondiferous kimberlite pipes have been discovered with the Star Kimberlite being the most prominent, currently undergoing underground testing by Shore Gold Inc.

The Company’s land position was acquired based on results of a preliminary investigation carried out in the area by the Company in 1995 and 1996. The exploration targets are of two conceptual types; one being the kimberlite pipes that may be present, cutting vertically across flat lying sedimentary rocks overlying an older Precambrian basement assemblage: the other being postulated gold-copper bearing iron formations in the underlying Precambrian basement, as suggested by an airborne magnetic survey conducted by the Company in 1995.

Approximately 640 acres are private minerals rights of Mrs. M. Lanctot and Mr. A Lanctot. The Company entered into a lease purchase agreement dated July 1, 2005 with Mrs. M. Lanctot and Mr. A. Lanctot ("Lanctots") to acquire the right to explore, develop and mine a property located in the vicinity of Fort a la Corne, Saskatchewan, Canada (“Crystal Springs Property”). The initial lease term is ten years with the first payment of $2,000 upon execution of the agreement on, March 31, 2006 and an annual sum of $4,000 for a total of $38,000 over the term of the lease. The current lease payment of $4,000 is in arrears as at June 14, 2010.

The Company has an option to purchase the 640-acre Crystal Springs Property upon commercial development. Upon commencing mining operations on the Property, the Company will pay Lanctots a production royalty equal to 5% of net profits and $4,000 per annum. Expenditures for 2009 were $4,373 and in 2008 total $4,000. There were no expenditures for this property in 2005 or 2004. The Saskatchewan Mineral Claims require the expenditure of $12 per hectare for years starting 2-10 to maintain Mineral Claims in good standing. As no work was completed or filed on these claims they have lapsed. There are no known mineral resources on the property. There are no current plans to conduct exploration programs for the Property. Any work to be conducted on this Property will be subjected to the raising of funds by equity funding or joint venture partnership funding. The claims remain active and good standing, the Company has written off its investment of $27,150 at October 31, 2008.

Royalty Interest: Kootenay Property, near Salmo, British Columbia, Canada
Potential Mineral Commodities: Molybdenum, Tungsten, Lead, Zinc, Gold, Silver and Copper

The Jersey-EmeraId Property in the Nelson Mining Division, Kootenay Region of British Columbia, Canada is a former producer of lead-zinc and tungsten. The Company retained a 1.5% net smelter return royalty when it sold the property some years ago during a period of depressed metal prices. Since 1995 Sultan Minerals Inc. (“Sultan”) of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, the current owner of the property, has conducted exploration on the molybdenum, tungsten, lead and zinc potential of the property. The Company makes no expenditures for exploration on the Property but does pay taxes on two retained surface lots in the area totalling $237 per year.

Sultan has released a series of updates on the status of the molybdenum, tungsten, and lead-zinc evaluation programs. An estimate for resources for each of molybdenum and tungsten has been prepared for the modest tonnage higher-grade portions of the deposits. Additional evaluation continues of the potential for much larger bulk tonnages of tungsten, molybdenum and gold. Sultan is also in the process of reviewing the resource potential of the lead and zinc mineralization remaining in and adjacent to the mine workings from previous production episodes. The Property is accessed by paved highway and improved roads. Power and water are available on site.

In a scoping study by Wardrop Engineering Inc. on May, 2007 the resources are as stated below and filed on SEDAR by Sultan Minerals Inc.

Differences in income (losses) by the Company in the various periods are caused entirely by variations in the amounts that the Company incurred in its day-to-day operations and, primarily in raising funds or conducting exploration work on its Lapon Canyon-Nevada Property, Triton-Ontario Property, and Crystal Springs-Saskatchewan Property.

The Lapon Canyon, Nevada Property is a gold-bearing vein structure with historical exploration and minor production on three levels Proposed exploration consisting of opening, re-examining, sampling, and drilling of extensions has not been started to date.

The Crystal Springs, Saskatchewan diamond gold exploration target was acquired during the 2006 year. The required drill testing for possible diamond pipes, and drill testing for potential gold-copper-iron targets in the basement rock have not yet been initiated. Monitoring of diamond exploration activity within the kimberlite field to the north continually evaluates the region for exploration potential.

The Kootenay (Jersey-Emerald) Property royalty interest covers production from the several potential targets. An extensive program by Sultan Minerals Inc., the current owner of property is ongoing and is monitored on continued basis.

As the Company is in the exploration stage of investigating, evaluating its minerals properties, revenues remained unchanged at $0 in 2009, 2008, 2007, and 2006, reflective of the nature of a mining exploration company.

In the current year ended October 31, 2009 the Company continues to incur general and administrative expenses consistent with the previous 12 months. The Company incurred expenditures for Lapon Canyon-Nevada Property consistent with the same 12-month period in the previous year. In additional, the Company incurred expenditures for Crystal Springs–Saskatchewan Property and Triton–Ontario Property. Total expenditures for all resource properties for the 2009 total $149,420 for 2008 total $105,949 (net of recoveries), for 2007 total expenditures were $107,291, compared to 2006 total of expenditures were $60,414., and in 2005 total expenditures were $108,328. Financial results for the 2009 are reflective on the continued activity of the Company with a net loss of $197,204, in 2008 a net loss of $ 393, 223, in 2007 a net loss of $320,473 in 2006 a net loss of $152,320, and in 2005 net loss of $467,969.

In accordance with the CICA policy the Company has accounted for stock options granted to directors, employees and consultants using the fair market value method. As a result the preceding the Company has recognized $60,156 in 2008, $171,470 in 2007 and in 2005, $289,341 stock-based compensation in the years net losses, and an additional $33,712, which was charged to the opening deficit in the previous year in 2004.

There are no trends, commitments, events or uncertainties presently known or identifiable to management that are reasonably expected to have a material affect on the Company’s business, financial position, or results of operations. The nature of the Company’s business is the demanding of capital for property acquisition costs, exploration commitments and holding costs. The Company intends to utilize cash on hand to meet these obligations and will continue to raise funds by equity financings as necessary to augment this cash position, as it does not have sufficient operating cash flow.

There are certain risk factors that could have material affects that are un-quantifiable at present due to the nature of the Company’s industry and other considerations as follows:

Exploration Development and Operating Risk – mineral exploration involves many risks, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. Properties in the Company has direct of indirect interest will be subject to all the hazards and risks normally associated with exploration and development any of which could result in damage to property, and possible environmental damage. Mineral exploration involves a high degree of risk and few properties result in successful production; 
Commodity Prices – the price of the Company’s shares, its financial results, and exploration activities have been or may in the future be, adversely affected by declines in the price of mineral commodity prices; 
Foreign Operation Risk – properties in Costa Rica and Panama are affected by changes in regulation of shift in the political attitudes, which are beyond the control of the Company; 

25




Financing and Acquisition – exploration activities require substantial additional financing. Failure to obtain financing results in delayed or postponed exploration and/or acquisition of resource properties; 
Environmental – all phases of the Company’s exploration are subject to environmental regulation in the various jurisdictions of these resource properties. There are no assurances that future changes in environmental regulation will not adversely affect the Company; 
Competition – the mining industry is intensely competitive industry, and the Company competes with numerous companies that have greater financial resources and technical facilities available.

Description of Securities

The Company is authorized 50,000,000 of Common Shares.

Common Shares

The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 of common shares without nominal or par value of which, as at October 31, 2009, 27,760,976 shares are issued and outstanding as fully paid and non-assessable 2,850,000 shares are reserved under directors’, employees and management stock options (see “Item 6A. Directors, Senior Management and Employees – Share Ownership – Stock Options”). The holders of the common shares are entitled to vote at all meetings of shareholders, except meetings at which only holders of a specified class of shares are entitled to vote, and on every poll taken at every such meeting, or adjourned meeting, every holder of Common Shares shall be entitled to one vote in respect of each Common Share held.

Annual and Special General Meetings

The Board must call an annual general meeting of Shareholders to be held not later than 15 months after the date of incorporation and subsequently, not later than 13 months after holding the last preceding annual meeting. An annual meeting is to be held for the purposes of considering the financial statements and auditor’s report, fixing the number of Directors for the following year, electing Directors, appointing an auditor and transacting any other business that may properly be brought before the meeting.

The Board may at any time call a special meeting of Shareholders.

Notice of Meetings

Notice of the time and place of a meeting of Shareholders must be sent not less than 21 days before the meeting to each Shareholder entitled to vote at the meeting, each Director and the auditor of the Company.

Notice of a meeting of Shareholders called for the purpose of transacting any business other than a consideration of the financial statements and auditor’s report, fixing the number of Directors for the following year, election of Directors and reappointment of the incumbent auditor must state the nature of the business to be transacted in sufficient detail to permit a Shareholder to form a reasoned judgment on that business and must state the text of any special resolution to be submitted to the meeting.

39




Where any special business includes the presenting, considering, approving, ratifying or authorizing of the execution of any document, then the portion of the any notice relating to such document shall be sufficient if the same states that a copy of the document or proposed document is or will be available for inspection by shareholders at a place in the Province of British Columbia specified in such notice during business hours in any specified working day or days prior to the date of the meeting.

C.  Material Contracts 

The Company has not entered into any material contracts (not made in the ordinary course of business) in the two years prior to the date of filing of this Form 20F.

D.  Exchange Controls 

Canadian Investment Controls

There are no governmental laws, decrees or regulations in Canada relating to restrictions on the export or import of capital, or affecting the remittance of interest, dividends or other payments to non-residents. Dividends paid to US residents, however, are subject to a 15% withholding tax or a 5% withholding tax for dividends if the shareholder is a company owning at least 10% of the outstanding voting shares of the Company pursuant to Article X of the reciprocal tax treaty between Canada and the US (See “Item 10 - Additional Information - Taxation”).

Except as provided in the Investment Canada Act (the “ICA”), which has provisions that restrict the holding of voting shares by non-Canadians, there are no limitations specific to the rights of non-Canadians to hold or vote the common shares under the laws of Canada or the Province of British Columbia, or in the charter documents of the Company or its subsidiaries.

The ICA requires a person who is not a Canadian resident (a “non-Canadian”) making an investment, which would result in the establishment of a new Canadian business or which would result in the acquisition of control of a Canadian business (i.e. the gross value of the assets of which exceed a certain monetary threshold), to identify, notify, or file an application for review with the Investment Review Division of Industry Canada (“IRD”). The notification procedure involves a brief statement of information about the investment on a prescribed form to be filed with the IRD by the investor within 30 days following implementation of the investment. Specific investments are subject to review under the ICA. It is intention of the IRD that investments requiring only notification will proceed without government intervention unless the investment is in a specific type of business activity related to Canada's cultural heritage and national identity.

If an investment is reviewable under the ICA, an application for review in the form prescribed is normally required to be filed with the IRD prior to the investment taking place and the investment may not be implemented until the review has been completed and the Minister of Industry (“Minister”) (the Minister responsible for Investment Canada) is satisfied that the investment is likely to be of net benefit to Canada. The Minister has up to 75 days to make this determination. If the Minister is not satisfied that the investment is likely to be of net benefit to Canada, the non-Canadian must not implement the investment or, if the investment has been implemented, may be required to divest himself of control of the business that is the subject of the investment.

In 1999, some of the powers, duties and functions of the Minister were transferred to the Minister of Canadian Heritage under Parts II to VI of the ICA as they relate to the prescribed business activities enumerated under paragraph 15(a) of the ICA, namely those that relate to Canada's “cultural heritage or national identity” (“Cultural Activities”) Cultural Activities include, among other things, the distribution or sale of books, magazines, film and video recordings and music recordings. As a result, an application for review must be submitted to the Cultural Sector Review Division of the Department of Canadian Heritage (the “CSRD”) in respect of the acquisition of control of a Canadian business engaged in a Cultural Activity that exceeds the prescribed lower monetary threshold applicable to the acquisition of such Canadian businesses.

The Minister of Canadian Heritage's review, similar to the Minister's review, is based on the statutory threshold of net benefit to Canada. CSRD is guided by certain policy statements regarding investments by non-Canadians in Canadian businesses engaged in certain Cultural Activities. CSRD's policy statements address certain Cultural Activities at the production/publication, distribution and/or exhibition levels.

The following investments by non-Canadians are subject to notification under ICA:

1. An investment to establish a new Canadian business; and 
 
2.
An investment to acquire control of a Canadian business that is not reviewable pursuant to the ICA. The following investments by non-Canadians are subject to review under the ICA: 

An investment is reviewable if there is an acquisition of control of a Canadian business and the asset value of the Canadian business being acquired equals or exceeds the following thresholds:

40




a.
For non-World Trade Organization (“WTO”) investors, the threshold is $5 million for a direct acquisition and $50 million for an indirect acquisition; the $5 million threshold will apply however for an indirect acquisition if the asset value of the Canadian business being acquired exceeds 50% of the asset value of the global transaction;
b.
Except as specified in paragraph (c) below, a threshold is calculated annually for reviewable direct acquisitions by or from WTO investors. The threshold for 2007 is $281 million. Pursuant to Canada's international commitments, indirect acquisitions by or from WTO investors are not reviewable;
c.
The limits set out in paragraph (a) apply to all investors for acquisitions of a Canadian business that:

i      engages in the production of uranium and owns an interest in a producing uranium property in Canada;
ii.      provides any financial service;
iii.      provides any transportation services; or
iv.      is a cultural business.

Notwithstanding the above, any investment which is usually only notifiable, including the establishment of a new Canadian business, and which falls within a specific business activity, including the publication and distribution of books, magazines, newspapers, film or video recordings, audio or video music recordings, or music in print or machine-readable form may be reviewed if an Order-in-Council directing a review is made and a notice is sent to the Investor within 21 days following the receipt of a certified complete notification.

With reference to 1 (a) above, generally speaking, an acquisition is direct if it involves the acquisition of control of the Canadian business or of its direct or indirect Canadian parent and an acquisition is indirect if it involves the acquisition of control of a non-Canadian direct or indirect parent of an entity carrying on the Canadian business. No change of voting control will be deemed to have occurred if an investor acquires less than one-third of the voting control of a Canadian company.

With reference to 1(a) above, a WTO investor, as defined in the ICA, includes an individual who is a national of a member country of the WTO or who has the right of permanent residence in relation that WTO member, a government or government agency of a WTO member, a WTO investor-controlled entity, a company, a limited partnership, trust or other specified business organizations that is neither WTO-investor controlled or Canadian controlled of which two-thirds of its board of directors, general partners or trustees, as the case may be, are any combination of Canadians and WTO investors.

The ICA exempts certain transactions from notification and review, including, among others,

1.
An acquisition of voting shares if the acquisition were made in the ordinary course of that persons' business as a trader or dealer in securities;
2.     
An acquisition of control of the company in connection with the realization of a security interest granted for a loan or other financial assistance and not for any purpose related to the provisions of the ICA;
3.     
The acquisition of voting interests by any person in the ordinary course of a business carried on by that person that consists of providing, in Canada, venture capital on terms and conditions not inconsistent with such terms and conditions as may be fixed by the Minister; and
4.     
Acquisition of control of the company by reason of an amalgamation, merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization, following which the ultimate direct or indirect control in fact of the company, through the ownership of voting interests, remains unchanged.

E.  Taxation 

The following is a summary of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the regulations thereunder (collectively, the “Tax Act”, or “ITA”), generally applicable in respect of the holding and disposition of common shares. The income tax consequences to any particular holder of common shares will vary according to the particular circumstances of each holder, including without limitation, the status of that holder as an individual, trust, company or member of a partnership, the jurisdiction in which that holder is subject to taxation and the place where that holder is resident.

This summary is based upon the Company's understanding of current provisions of the Tax Act and the Canada-United States Tax Convention (1980) (the “Tax Convention”) as at the date of this Form 20-F, of all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act publicly announced prior to the date hereof and of the current published administrative and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency (the “CRA”). Other than such proposed amendments, this summary does not take into account or anticipate changes in the law, whether by way of judicial decision or legislative action, nor any changes in the administrative or assessing practices of the CRA. There is no assurance that any specific proposals to amend the Tax Act will be enacted as proposed or at all. This summary does not take into account, or anticipate any provincial, territorial or foreign tax legislation or other considerations, which may differ from those consideration described herein.

41




This summary is applicable only to holders of common shares who, for the purposes of the Tax Act and the Tax Convention, are resident in the US, have never been resident in or deemed to be resident in Canada at any time while they have held common shares, deal at arm's length with and are not affiliated with, the Company, hold their common shares as capital property, do not carry on and are not deemed to carry on an insurance business in Canada, and will not use or hold or be deemed to use or hold the common shares in the course of carrying on business in Canada. Common shares will generally be considered to capital property for purposes of the Tax Act unless they are held in the course of carrying on a business of trading or dealing in securities or acquired in a transaction, which may be consideredtobeanadventureinthenature ofthe trade. Special rules, which are not discussed in this summary, may apply to a US holder that is a company that carries on business in Canada and elsewhere.

This summary is of a general nature only and is not exhaustive of all Canadian federal income tax considerations and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any holder of common shares. No opinion, with respect to taxation matters, was requested by the Company or provided by its auditors or legal counsel. Each holder should consult his own tax advisor with respect to the income tax consequences applicable to him in his own particular circumstances.

Disposition of Common Shares

A non-resident of Canada will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of a capital gain realized upon the disposition or deemed disposition of a common share of the Company unless it constitutes “taxable Canadian property” under the Tax Act and the holder is not entitled to relief under the Tax Convention. Such common shares will generally not be taxable Canadian property provided the holder thereof does not use or hold and is not deemed to use or hold such shares in connection with carrying on a business in Canada; such shares are not “designated insurance property” of the holder within the meaning of the Tax Act; that if the shares listed on a prescribed stock exchange under the Tax Act, the holder has not, either alone or in combination with persons with whom the holder does not deal at arm's length, owned or had the right to acquire 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of shares in the Company within 60 months preceding the date of disposition; such holder has not elected to treat such shares as taxable Canadian property upon ceasing to be a resident in Canada; and such shares were not acquired in a tax deferred exchange for property that was itself taxable Canadian property.

In the case of a non-resident holder to whom shares of the Company represent taxable Canadian property and who is resident in the US, relief from Canadian taxation may not be available under the Tax Convention in certain cases, including, without limitation, where the value of such shares is derived principally from real property situated in Canada. Mineral exploration rights are generally considered to be real property for this purpose. Shareholders should consult with their tax advisors as to whether they will be afforded relief under the Tax Convention.

If common shares of the Company constitute taxable Canadian property and a holder is not afforded relief under the Tax Convention, a capital gain (or capital loss) will generally be realized to the extent that the proceeds of disposition received or deemed to be received exceed (or are less than) the aggregate adjusted cost base of such shares, net of any reasonable costs of disposition or deemed disposition. One-half of any such capital gain (“taxable capital gain”) will be required to be included in income in the year of the disposition. One half of the amount of any capital loss (“allowable capital loss”) may be deductible against certain taxable capital gains realized in that year in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Act. Allowable capital losses for a taxation year in excess of taxable capital gains for that year may otherwise be available for deduction in other taxation years in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Act.

However, special rules apply if a non-resident of Canada or certain designated partnerships dispose of common shares of the Company to another company resident in Canada with which the non-resident does not deal or is deemed not to deal at arm's length and, immediately after the disposition, the Company is “connected” with the purchaser company within the meaning of the Tax Act. Each holder should consult with their own tax advisor with respect to the income tax consequences of any such disposition applicable to them, in their own particular circumstances.

Dividends

In the case of any dividends paid or credited or deemed to be paid or credited to non-residents, the non-resident will be subject to tax on the gross amount of such dividends. In the absence of relief under the Tax Convention, the Company will be required to withhold there from on account of tax, 25% of the amount of such dividend, and remit same to the Receiver General of Canada, and the net amount of the dividend will be paid to the non-resident holder. In certain cases Article X of the Tax Convention reduces the rate of tax on dividends paid to residents of the US to 15% of the gross dividend (or 5% in the case of dividends paid to certain corporate shareholders that beneficially own at least 10% of the Company's voting shares). Stock dividends received by non-residents from the Company are taxable in Canada as ordinary dividends.

Dispositions of common shares to the Company will generally result in a deemed dividend to the holder equal to the amount by which the consideration paid or deemed to be paid by the Company exceeds the paid-up capital of such shares. The amount of such deemed dividend would be subject to withholding tax as described above.

42




US Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a discussion of possible US Federal income tax consequences, under US law, generally applicable to a US Holder (as defined below) of common shares of the Company. This discussion does not address consequences peculiar to persons subject to special provisions of US Federal income tax law, such as those described below as excluded from the definition of a US Holder. In addition, this discussion does not cover any alternative minimum, US state and local or foreign tax consequences.

The following discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury Regulations, published Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) rulings, published administrative positions of the IRS, and court decisions that are currently applicable, any of which could be materially and adversely changed, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time. In addition, the discussion does not consider the potential effects, both adverse and beneficial, of recently proposed legislation that, if enacted, could be applied, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time.

Circular 230 Disclosure

Any tax statement made herein regarding any US federal tax is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, by any taxpayer for purposes of avoiding any penalties. Any such statement herein is written in connection with the marketing or promotion of the transaction to which the statement relates. Each taxpayer should seek advice based on the taxpayer's particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

As used herein, a US Holder includes a holder of common shares who is a citizen or individual resident (as defined under US tax laws) of the United States; a company created or organized in or under the laws of the US or of any political subdivision thereof; an estate the income of which is taxable in the US irrespective of source; or a trust if (a) a court within the US is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more US persons have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions or (b) the trust was in existence on August 20, 1996 and has properly elected to continue to be treated as a US person. This summary does not address the US tax consequences to, and US Holders do not include, persons subject to specific provisions of federal income tax law, including, but not limited to, tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts and other tax-deferred accounts, financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, broker-dealers, non-resident alien individuals, persons or entities that have a “functional currency” other than the US dollar, persons who hold common shares as part of a straddle, hedging or a conversion transaction, and persons who acquire their common shares as compensation for services. This summary is limited to US Holders who own common shares as capital assets and who hold the common shares directly and not through an intermediary entity.

Distributions on Common Shares of the Company

Subject to the discussion below regarding “passive foreign investment companies” (“PFICs”), US Holders receiving dividend distributions (including constructive dividends) with respect to common shares of the Company are required to include in gross income (for US Federal income tax purposes) the gross amount of such distributions, to the extent that the Company has current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under US Federal tax principals. This inclusion is done without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distributions.

Any Canadian tax withheld generally may be credited (subject to certain limitations) against the US Holder's US Federal taxable income. (See more detailed discussion at “Foreign Tax Credits” below.) To the extent that distributions exceed current or accumulated earnings and profits of the Company, they will be treated first as a return of capital up to the US Holder's adjusted basis in the common shares and thereafter as a gain from the sale or exchange of the common shares. Dividends received by non-corporate US Holders may be subject to US federal income tax at lower rates (generally 15%) than other types of ordinary income in taxable years beginning before 2011 if certain conditions are met. These conditions include the Company not being classified as a PFIC, it being a qualified foreign company, the US Holder's satisfaction of a holding period requirement, and the US Holder not treating the distribution as “investment income” for purposes of the investment interest deduction rules. In the case of US Holders that are companies, such dividends generally will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction.

Foreign Tax Credit

A US Holder who pays (or has withheld from distributions) Canadian income tax with respect to the common shares of the Company may be entitled, at the option of the US Holder, to either a deduction or a tax credit for such foreign tax paid or withheld, at the option of the US Holder. Generally, it will be more advantageous to claim a credit because a credit reduces US Federal income taxes on a dollar-for-dollar basis, while a deduction merely reduces the taxpayer's income subject to tax.

43




This election is made on a year-by-year basis, and applies to all foreign income taxes (or taxes in lieu of income tax) paid by (or withheld from) the US Holder during the year. There are significant and complex limitations which apply to the credit, among which is the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of the US Holder's US income tax liability that the US Holder's foreign source income bears to his/her or its worldwide taxable income.

In the determination of the application of this limitation, various items of income and deduction must be classified into foreign and domestic sources. Complex rules govern this classification process.

In addition, this limitation is calculated separately with respect to specific classes or “baskets” of income; foreign taxes assigned to a particular class of income generally cannot offset United States tax on income assigned to another class. For tax years beginning after 2006, there are two classes of income, “passive category income” and “general category income” for United States foreign tax credit purposes. For tax years of US Holders beginning after October 22, 2004, unused foreign tax can generally be carried back one year and forward ten years.

The availability of the foreign tax credit and the application of the limitations with respect to the foreign tax credit are fact specific, and US Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the foreign tax credit rules.

Currency Fluctuations

For United States federal income tax purposes, the amount received by a US Holder as payment with respect to a distribution on, or disposition of, common shares, if paid in Canadian dollars, will be the US dollar value of the payment, regardless of whether the payment is later converted into US dollars. In such case, the US Holders may recognize additional ordinary income or loss as a result of currency fluctuations between the date on which the payment is made and the date the payment is converted into US dollars.

Disposition of Common Shares of the Company

Subject to the PFIC discussion below, a US Holder will recognize gain or loss upon the sale of commons shares of the Company equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received, and the US Holder's tax basis in the common shares of Company.

This gain or loss will be capital gain or loss if the common shares are a capital asset in the hands of the US Holder, which willbeashort-term or long-term capital gain or loss depending upon the holding period of the US Holder. Under present law, a non-corporate US Holder generally is eligible for a maximum 15% US Federal income tax rate, subject to the PFIC discussion below, for net long-term (held more than one year) capital gains. Gains and losses are netted and combined according to special rules in arriving at the overall capital gain or loss for a particular tax year. Deductions for net capital losses are subject to significant limitations.

US Anti-Deferral Regimes - Passive Foreign Investment Company (“PFIC”) Regime

The PFIC rules may apply to US Holders if the Company, or an entity directly or indirectly owned by the Company (“Related Entity”), derives 75% or more of its gross income from certain types of “passive income” (generally, interest, dividends, rents, royalties and the like), or if the average value during a taxable year of the Company or the Related Entity's “passive assets” (generally, assets that generate passive income) is 50% or more of the average value of all assets held by the Company or the Related Entity. If the Company or a Related Entity is classified as a PFIC, a US Holder will be subject to increased tax liability in respect of gain recognized on the disposition of common shares or upon the receipt of certain distributions, unless the US Holder makes an election to be taxed currently on his, her or its pro rata portion of the Company's income and gain, whether or not such income or gain is distributed in the form of dividends or otherwise, and the Company provides certain annual statements which include the information necessary to determine inclusions and assure compliance with the PFIC rules. As another alternative to the foregoing rules, a US Holder may make a mark-to-market election to include in income each year as ordinary income an amount equal to the increase in value of the Common shares for that year or to claim a deduction for any decrease in value (but only to the extent of previous mark-to-market gains).

Neither the Company nor any Related Entity can give any assurance as to its status as a PFIC for the current or any future year, and offers no opinion or representation of any kind with respect to the PFIC status of the Company or any Related Entity. US Holders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the PFIC issue and its applicability to their particular tax situation.

I.  Subsidiary Information 

This item is not applicable.

ITEM 11  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK 

The Company has not entered into any activities in derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments. The Company's financial assets are in the form of cash and cash equivalents held at institutions with high credit quality ratings.

As a Canadian Company, World Ventures Inc.'s cash balances are kept primarily in Canadian funds, revenues are negotiated in Canadian dollars and expenses are predominately in Canadian dollars. The Company does have limited exposure to foreign exchange risk, but this is restricted to payment of current trade accounts payable in US Dollars where most of the Company's cash assets are denominated in Canadian Dollars. Therefore, the Company believes it is exposed to only minimal exchange rate risk. The Company considers the amount of risk to be manageable and does not currently, nor is likely in the foreseeable future, conduct hedging to reduce its exchange rate risk.

ITEM 15  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

A Disclosure Committee of World Ventures Inc. was appointed by the Board of Directors in 2006 to oversee the Company's disclosure activities and to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its responsibilities in this respect. The purpose of the Committee is to ensure that the Company implements and maintains internal procedures for the timely collection, evaluation and disclosure, as appropriate, of information potentially subject to public disclosure under the legal, regulatory and stock exchange requirements to which the Company is subject.

The Committee's responsibilities include the following:

  • review material developments and advise on the Company's disclosure obligations on a timely basis;

  • advise on and discuss the timely review, publication and filing of periodic and current reports with the various parties involved, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, and review that these reports do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

  • periodically review past disclosures contained in public filings and other public information and advise whether any updates or corrections are appropriate; and

  • evaluate and advise on the effectiveness of the Company's internal and disclosure controls and procedures, including the steps that it deems necessary or desirable to effect compliance with those procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were adequately designed and are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms.

In addition, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that are filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There are inherent limitations as to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and circumvention or overriding of the controls or procedures. It should also be noted that the Company's internal controls and procedures will not prevent or detect all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Consequently, management applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Internal Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s management has employed a framework consistent with Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(c), to evaluate the Company’s internal control over financial reporting described below. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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.

Management conducted an evaluation of the design and operation of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2009 based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Tread way Commission. This evaluation included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of October 31, 2009 and no material weaknesses were discovered.

The Company has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that they are effective to provide assurance that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries is made known to management and disclosed in accordance with applicable securities regulations.

Attestation Report of the registered public accounting firm

The report immediately preceding the Company’s audited consolidated balance sheets as at October 31, 2008 and 2007 is incorporated by reference herein.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls during the year ended October 31, 2008, or subsequent to the evaluation date identified in connection with the evaluation thereof by the Company's management including the Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 16  RESERVED BY THE SEC 

ITEM 16A  AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT 

The Board of Directors of World Ventures Inc. does not have an “audit committee financial expert”, as defined in Item 16A of Form 20-F and as defined by rules of the AMEX.

ITEM 16B  CODE OF CONDUCT 

The Company has not yet adopted a written “code of ethics” that meets the new United States' Sarbanes-Oxley standards. The Board believes that its existing standards and procedures are adequate for its purposes. The Company believes that its management structure and corporate culture effectively deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct, full, fair and accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents, compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations, prompt internal reporting of unethical conduct and accountability for adherence to the conduct standards. The Company has a small number of employees and most of its officers are also directors, thus eliminating any split between the Company’s management and the directors who are responsible to safeguard shareholder interests. As a result, the Company believes that the activities of the Company’s officers, employees and other agents can be easily monitored by its directors, thus eliminating the need for a formal written code of ethics.

WORLD VENTURES INC. 
(An Exploration Stage Company) 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 
Years Ended October 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007 
(Unaudited) 

 

1.  OPERATIONS 

World Ventures Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the province of British Columbia, Canada. It is an exploration stage company, whose principal business activities include the exploration of natural resource properties. It has not been determined whether its properties contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable. The Company has not earned revenues from its mineral properties.

2.  GOING CONCERN 

These financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

Several adverse conditions cast substantial doubt on the validity of the going concern assumption. The Company has incurred significant operating losses (2009 - $ 197,204; 2008 -$393,223; 2007 - $320,473) and has an accumulated deficit of $8,767,768 (2008 - $8,570,564) and a working capital deficiency of $478,145 (2008 - $285,830) at October 31, 2009. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to secure additional financing on a timely basis, receive cooperation from its creditors and achieve sufficient cash flows to cover obligations and expenses. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time.

The Company currently has some long outstanding amounts owed to creditors which have gone to collection agencies. The Company owes the British Columbia government for corporation capital tax (note 3), which has interest accruing on a monthly basis. Additionally the court order requirement to repurchase shares as mentioned in note 9(e) is still incomplete.

The business of mining and exploration involves a high degree of risk and there can be no assurance that current exploration programs will result in profitable mining operations. The investment in and expenditures on resource properties comprise substantially all of the Company's assets. The Company has no source of revenue, and has significant cash obligations to meet its administrative overhead, maintain its resource properties and continue exploration activities. The recoverability of amounts shown for resource properties is dependent on several factors. These include the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to raise the necessary financing to complete the development of these properties, and future profitable production or proceeds from disposition of resource properties. The carrying value of the Company’s resource properties does not reflect current or future values.

These financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, which might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations as a going concern.

3.  CHARGE ON ASSETS 

A charge has been placed over all the assets of the Company as security for unpaid British Columbia corporation capital tax amounting to approximately $ 108,446 (2008 - $102,567), including interest, as at October 31, 2009. This amount is included in accounts payable (note 8).

4.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

 

(a)  Principles of consolidation 

These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its integrated wholly-owned subsidiary, World Ventures (Nevada) Inc. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

(b)  Basis of presentation 

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP and all figures are in Canadian dollars. Canadian GAAP differs in certain respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, as described in note 13.

(c)  Use of estimates 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas requiring the use of estimates include the rates of amortization of equipment, the recovery of resource property interests, asset retirement obligations (“ARO”), the assumptions used in the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation and warrants, allocation of proceeds for units between common shares and warrants, the determination of the valuation allowance for future income tax assets, and accrued liabilities. Management believes the estimates are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from those estimates and could impact future results of operations and cash flows.

(d)  Equipment 

Equipment is recorded at cost less amortization.

Amortization of machinery and equipment is calculated at 20% per annum using the declining-balance method.

(e)  Resource properties 

The Company capitalizes all costs related to investments in resource properties on a property-by-property basis. Such costs include property acquisition costs and exploration expenditures, net of any recoveries. Costs are deferred until such time as the extent of mineralization has been determined and resource property interests are either developed or the Company’s mineral rights are allowed to lapse.

All deferred resource property expenditures are reviewed, on a property-by-property basis, to consider whether there are any conditions that may indicate impairment. When the carrying value of a property exceeds its net recoverable amount as estimated by quantifiable evidence of an economic geological resource or reserve, or the ability to sell the property for an amount exceeding the deferred costs, a provision is made for the impairment in value.

4.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

 

(e)  Resource properties (continued) 

The amounts shown for acquisition costs and deferred exploration expenditures represent costs incurred to date and do not necessarily reflect present or future values. These costs will be depleted over the useful lives of the properties upon commencement of commercial production or written-off if the properties are abandoned or the claims allowed to lapse.

From time to time the Company may acquire or dispose of a resource property interest pursuant to the terms of an option agreement. As the options are exercisable entirely at the discretion of the optionee, the amounts payable or receivable are not recorded. Option payments are recorded as property costs or recoveries when the payments are made or received. When the amount of recoveries exceeds the total amount of capitalized costs of the property, the amount in excess of costs is credited to income.

(f)  Asset retirement obligations 

The Company recognizes an estimate of the liability associated with an ARO in the financial statements at the time the liability is incurred. The estimated fair value of the ARO is recorded as a long-term liability, with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related asset. The capitalized amount will be depleted on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the asset. The liability amount will be increased each reporting period due to the passage of time and the amount of accretion will be charged to operations in the period. The ARO can also increase or decrease due to changes in the estimates of timing of cash flows or changes in the original estimated undiscounted cost. Actual costs incurred upon settlement of the ARO are charged against the ARO to the extent of the liability recorded. At present the Company has determined that it has no material AROs to record in the financial statements.

(g)  Income taxes 

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method of tax allocation, future income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary differences). Future income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences are likely to reverse. The effect on future income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is included in operations in the period in which the change is enacted or substantively enacted. The amount of future income tax assets recognized is limited to the amount of the benefit that is, more likely than not, to be realized.

4.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

 

(h)  Stock-based compensation 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using a fair value based method with respect to all stock-based payments to directors, employees and non-employees. For directors and employees, the fair value of the options is measured at the date of grant. For non-employees, the fair value of the options is measured on the earlier of the date at which the counterparty performance is complete or the date the performance commitment is reached or the date at which the equity instruments are granted if they are fully vested and non-forfeitable. For directors, employees and non-employees, the fair value of the options is accrued and charged to operations, with the offset credit to contributed surplus, over the vesting period. If and when the stock options are exercised, the applicable amounts of contributed surplus are transferred to capital stock.

(i)  Loss per share 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. 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 calculated presuming the exercise of outstanding options, warrants and similar instruments. It assumes that the proceeds of such exercise would be used to repurchase common shares at the average market price during the period. However, the calculation of diluted loss per share excludes the effects of various conversions and exercise of options and warrants that would be anti-dilutive.

(j)  Financial instruments 

All financial instruments are classified as one of the following: held-to-maturity, loans and receivables, held-for-trading, available-for-sale or other financial liabilities. Financial assets and liabilities classified as held-for-trading are measured at fair value with gains and losses recognized in net income. Financial assets classified as held-to-maturity, loans and receivables, and other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Financial instruments classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and reported in shareholders' equity. Any financial instrument may be designated as held-for-trading upon initial recognition. When a decline in the fair value of an available-for-sale financial asset has been recognized in comprehensive income, and there is objective evidence that the impairment is other than temporary, the cumulative loss that had been previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income is removed from accumulated other comprehensive income and recognized in net income even though the financial asset has not been derecognized.

Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial instruments that are classified as other than held-for-trading, which are expensed as incurred, are included in the initial carrying value of such instruments.

Comprehensive income or loss is defined as the change in equity from transactions and other events from sources other than the Company's shareholders that are excluded from the calculation of net income (loss) calculated in accordance with Canadian GAAP. The Company has no items of other comprehensive income in any period presented. Therefore, net loss as presented in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations equals comprehensive loss.

4.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

 

(k)  Warrants 

The proceeds from the issuance of units are allocated between common shares and common share purchase warrants on a pro-rata basis based on relative fair values using the market trading price and the Black-Scholes option pricing model for the common shares and warrants respectively.

(l)  Foreign currency transactions 

The functional currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar. Amounts recorded in foreign currency are translated into Canadian dollars as follows:

(i)

Monetary assets and liabilities, at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date;

 
(ii)

Non-monetary assets and liabilities, at the exchange rates prevailing at the time of the acquisition of the assets or assumption of the liabilities; and

 
(iii)

Expenses, at the exchange rate prevailing at the time of the transaction.

Gains and losses arising from the translation are included in net loss for the year.

(m)  Adoption of new accounting standards 

Effective November 1, 2007, the Company adopted the following standards of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants’ (“CICA”) Handbook.

(i)  Capital Disclosures 

Section 1535 establishes standards for disclosing information about an entity’s capital and how it is managed. The entity’s disclosure should include information about its objectives, policies and processes for managing capital and disclose whether it has complied with any capital requirements to which it is subject and the consequences of non-compliance. Other than the additional disclosure presented in note 12, this section does not significantly affect the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

  (ii)  Financial Instruments – Disclosures and Financial Instruments – Presentation 

Section 3862, “Financial Instruments – Disclosures”, and Section 3863, “Financial Instruments – Presentation”, replace Handbook Section 3861, “Financial Instruments – Disclosures and Presentation”, revising its disclosure requirements, and carrying forward its presentation requirements. These new sections place increased emphasis on disclosures about the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments and how the entity manages those risks.

Section 3862 specifies disclosures that enable users to evaluate: (i) the significance of financial instruments for the entity's financial position and performance; and (ii) the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments to which the entity is exposed and how the entity manages those risks.

Other than the additional disclosure presented in note 5, adoption of these standards does not significantly affect the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

(m)  Adoption of new accounting standards (continued) 

 

(iii)  Amendments to Section 1400 – Going Concern 

CICA Section 1400, “General Standards of Financial Statement Presentation”, was amended to include requirements to assess and disclose an entity's ability to continue as a going concern. When financial statements are not prepared on a going concern basis, that fact shall be disclosed together with the basis on which the financial statements are prepared and the reason why the company is not considered a going concern. The Company’s accounting policies were already in accordance with the requirements of the amended section and there was no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(n)  Future accounting changes 

 

(i)  International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) 

In 2006, the Canadian Accounting Standards Board ("AcSB") published a new strategic plan that will significantly affect financial reporting requirements for Canadian companies. The AcSB strategic plan outlines the convergence of Canadian GAAP with IFRS over an expected five year transitional period. In February 2008, the AcSB announced that January 1, 2011 is the changeover date for publicly-listed companies to use IFRS, replacing Canada's own GAAP. The IFRS standards will be effective for the Company for interim and fiscal period reporting commencing November 1, 2011. The effective date will require the restatement for comparative purposes of amounts reported by the Company for the interim periods and for the year ended October 31, 2011. While the Company has begun assessing the adoption of IFRS for 2011, the financial reporting impact of the transition to IFRS cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

(ii)  Business Combinations 

In January 2009, the CICA issued Section 1582, “Business Combinations”, Section 1601, “Consolidations”, and Section 1602, “Non-Controlling Interests”. These sections replace the former Section 1581, “Business Combinations”, and Section 1600, “Consolidated Financial Statements”, and establish a new section for accounting for a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary.

Sections 1582 and 1602 will require net assets, non-controlling interests and goodwill acquired in a business combination to be recorded at fair value and non-controlling interests will be reported as a component of equity. In addition, the definition of a business is expanded and is described as an integrated set of activities and assets that are capable of being managed to provide a return to investors or economic benefits to owners. Acquisition costs are not part of the consideration and are to be expensed when incurred. Section 1601 establishes standards for the preparation of consolidated financial statements.

These new sections apply to interim and annual consolidated financial statements of the Company beginning November 1, 2011. Earlier adoption of these sections is permitted as of the beginning of the 2009 fiscal year. All three sections must be adopted concurrently. The Company will assess the impact of these new sections on its consolidated financial statements at the time of a future business combination, if any.

(iii)  Goodwill and Intangible Assets 

In February 2008, the CICA issued Handbook Section 3064, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets”, replacing Section 3062, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, and Section 3450, “Research and Development Costs”. These sections establish standards for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of goodwill subsequent to its initial recognition and of intangible assets by profit-oriented enterprises. Standards concerning goodwill are unchanged from the standards included in the previous Section 3062. The new section is effective for the Company November 1, 2008. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of this new section on its consolidated financial statements.

  (iv)  Credit Risk and the Fair Value of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities 

In January 20, 2009, the Emerging Issues Committee (“EIC”) of the CICA issued EIC-173, “Credit Risk and the Fair Value of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”, which clarifies that an entity's own credit risk and the credit risk of the counterparty should be taken into account in determining the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, including derivative instruments. EIC-173 is to be applied retrospectively without restatement of prior periods in interim and annual financial statements for periods ending on or after the date of issuance of EIC-173. The Company will adopt this recommendation in its fair value determinations for its fiscal year ending October 31, 2009.

(v)  Mining Exploration Costs 

In March 2009, the EIC issued EIC-174, “Mining Exploration Costs”, which provides guidance on capitalization of exploration costs related to mining properties. It also provides guidance for development and exploration stage entities that cannot estimate future cash flows from its properties in assessing whether impairment in such properties is required. EIC-174 also provides additional discussion on recognition for long-lived assets. EIC-174 is to be applied retrospectively without restatement of prior periods in interim and annual financial statements for periods ending on or after the date of issuance of EIC-174. The Company will adopt this recommendation for its fiscal year ending October 31, 2009.

5.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 

The Company has classified its cash as held-for-trading, accounts receivable as loans and receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities as other financial liabilities.

The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

The Company's risk exposure and the impact on the Company's financial instruments are summarized below:

(a)  Credit risk 

Credit risk is the risk the Company will face a financial loss from not being able to collect or access their financial assets. The Company is not exposed to significant credit risk on its financial assets.

(b)  Liquidity risk 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to provide reasonable assurance that it will have sufficient funds to meet liabilities when due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipated investing and financing activities. The Company’s objective is to maintain sufficient cash to meet the Company’s business requirements; however, at October 31, 2009, the cash balance of $1,071 is insufficient to meet the Company’s immediate needs. Therefore, the Company will be required to raise additional capital or sell one or more of its resource properties in order to fund its operations for 2009. At October 31, 2009, the Company had accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $482,147 (2008 -$290,206), which are all payable within six months.

(c)  Market risk 

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, and other price risk.

(i)  Interest rate risk 

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk due to the short-term nature of its monetary assets and liabilities; however, it is subject to interest rate risk to the extent of changes in the prescribed interest rate charged by the Minister of Finance (note 3).

1.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued) 

 

(c)  Market risk (continued) 

 

(ii)  Foreign currency risk 

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that certain assets, and the commitments related to those assets, are denominated in foreign currencies. Changes in these foreign exchange rates will result in an increase or decrease in future cash outflows. The Company has not entered into any foreign currency contracts to mitigate this risk. As at October 31, 2009, the Company is committed, via its Lapon property option agreement (note 7(a)), to making monthly payments of US $4,500 totalling US $54,000 for the year.

The Company’s sensitivity analysis suggests that a consistent 10% change in the absolute rate of exchange in United Stated dollars, the foreign currency for which the Company has future commitments, would lead to a change in cash flows of US $5,400 for the Company.

(iii)  Other price risk 

Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk or commodity price risk. The Company has no financial instruments exposed to such risk.

Ownership in mineral interests 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 frequent, ambiguous conveyance history characteristics of mineral interests. The Company has investigated ownership of its mineral interests and to the best of its knowledge ownership of its interests are in good standing.

(a)  Lapon Canyon, Nevada, USA 

In 2002, the Company entered into a lease purchase agreement to acquire the right to explore, develop and mine a property located in Mineral County, Nevada, USA (the "Property"). The initial lease term was five years and could be extended for an additional five years, and for as long thereafter as minerals are mined and produced from the Property. Upon commencing production of valuable minerals from the Property, the Company will pay the lessor a royalty on production equal to 4% of net smelter returns (“NSR”).

In January 2007, an Amendment Agreement Letter amended the term of the lease to automatically extend the lease for an additional five years to June 6, 2012. The amended minimum lease payment is US $4,500 per month from September 6, 2007 through the sixth day of each month thereafter (paid to May 2010).

The lessor also granted the Company the exclusive right and option to purchase the Property for US $1,250,000 or 50% of the unpaid balance at any time during the initial or extended terms of the lease. Upon exercise of this option by the Company, the lessor will transfer the Property to the Company with a reserved royalty on production equal to a 0.5% NSR.

7.  RESOURCE PROPERTIES (Continued) 

 

(a)  Lapon Canyon, Nevada, USA (continued) 

On July 31, 2005, the Company applied to the Regional Office of The Bureau of Land Management for permits to carry out its exploration program on the Lapon Canyon gold project. The Company received approval on September 16, 2005 and was required to post a reclamation bond in the amount of US $2,500. On March 27, 2006, the Company retained a consultant to oversee underground exploration and sampling activities.

On April 9, 2009, the Company entered into a letter of intent to option up to 50% of the ownership interest in the Lapon Canyon property to an unrelated third party. The optionee can earn a 20% interest in the property by paying the Company $100,000 within 7 days of the execution of the letter of intent. The optionee can earn the additional 30% interest by making exploration expenditures of $650,000 within two years of the letter of intent within the context of the exploration program of the Company. The letter of intent did not progress to an agreement and this business arrangement is no longer in effect.

(b)  Guanacaste, Costa Rica

This royalty has been waived indefinitely until the commencement of production. The Company wrote down its investment of $395,496 in the property during 2003 and is holding the rights for future use. There were no expenditures in 2009, 2008, or 2007 for this property.

(e)  Crystal Springs, Saskatchewan, Canada 

In April 2006, the Company acquired over 57,000 acres (23,700 hectares) of mineral rights near Fort a la Corne, Saskatchewan, Canada, from Saskatchewan Mineral Claims and private mineral rights. Of the 57,000 acres, approximately 640 acres were private minerals rights.

The Company entered into a lease purchase agreement dated July 1, 2005 to acquire the right to explore, develop and mine a property located in the vicinity of Fort a la Corne, Saskatchewan, Canada (“Crystal Springs Property”). The initial lease term is ten years with the first payment of $2,000 upon execution of the agreement on March 31, 2006 and an annual sum of $4,000. The Company has an option to purchase the Crystal Springs Property upon commercial development.

9.  CAPITAL STOCK (Continued) 

 

(e)

Pursuant to a court judgment dated November 8, 2002, the Company was required to redeem 60,000 shares (300,000 shares prior to 1999 5:1 share consolidation) for $60,000 from a creditor.

As of October 31, 2009, the 60,000 shares have not been redeemed and have been reclassified to accounts payable.

(f)  Contributed surplus 

 

     
Balance, October 31, 2007  494,523   
Fair market value of warrants issued in 2008  58,418

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value stock options granted and share purchase warrants issued as part of unit offerings. The model requires management to make assumptions, which are subjective and may not be representative of actual results. Changes in assumptions can materially affect estimates of fair values. For the purposes of the calculation and disclosures for share options, the following weighted average assumptions were used:

  2009 2008
 
Expected life (years)  5 2
Interest rate  2.86% 4.69%
Annualized volatility  144% 130%
Dividend rate  0.00 0.00

The stock-based compensation of $60,156 (2008 - $60,156; 2007 - $171,470) incurred was charged to operations.

For the purposes of the calculation and disclosures for share purchase warrants, the following weighted average assumptions were used:

     
Expected life (years)  2
Interest rate  2.94%
Annualized volatility  140.57%
Dividend rate    0.00

11.  INCOME TAXES (Continued) 

Future income taxes reflect the tax effects of the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The applicable tax rate to be expected is 26% (2008 - 26%). The components of future income tax assets at October 31, 2009 and 2008 are as follows:

    2009     2008  
 
Future income tax assets             
Tax value over book value of resource properties  $  813,000   $  774,000  
Tax value over book value of property and equipment    9,000     9,000  
Non-capital loss carry-forwards    290,000     730,000  
    1,112,000     1,513,000  
Valuation allowance    (1,112,000 )    (1,513,000 ) 
 
Future income tax assets  $  0   $  0  

The valuation allowance reflects the Company's estimate that the future income tax assets are not more likely than not to be realized.

The Company has estimated operating losses that may be carried forward to apply against future years’ income for Canadian income tax purposes. These losses expire as follows:

Available to    Amount   
 
2010    48,000 
2011    112,000 
2015    172,000 
2026    163,000 
2027    143,000 
2028    285,000 
2029    191,000   
 
  $  1,114,000   

 

12.  CAPITAL MANAGEMENT 

The Company is an exploration stage company and this involves a high degree of risk. The Company has not determined whether its properties contain economically recoverable reserves of ore and currently has not earned any revenues from its resource properties and, therefore, does not generate cash flows from operations. The Company's primary source of funds comes from the issuance of share capital. The Company considers common shares to be the capital of the Company and has issued $ 8,321,285 (2008 - $8,167,130) to October 31, 2009. The Company does not use other sources of financing that require fixed payments of interest and principal due to lack of cash flow from current operations and is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements, other than as disclosed in note 3.

12.  CAPITAL MANAGEMENT (Continued) 

The Company’s objectives of capital management are intended to safeguard its ability to meet normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis and continue the exploration of its resource properties. To effectively manage the Company’s capital requirements, the Company has in place a planning process to determine the funds required to ensure appropriate liquidity to meet its operating and growth objectives. The Company monitors actual expenses on all exploration projects and overhead to manage costs, commitments and exploration activities.

The Company relies on equity financing to fund its operations and exploration programs. Although the Company has been successful at raising funds in the past through the issuance of share capital there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future.

13.  DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GAAP 

 

(a)  Recent accounting pronouncements: 

 

(i)

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). The provisions of this standard are to provide guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard clarifies methods for measuring items not actively traded and the principles that fair value should be based upon when pricing an asset or liability. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal year. The adoption of SFAS 157 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. SFAS 157-2 defers the Statement’s effective date for certain non-financial assets and liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years.

 
(ii)

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The fair value option established by SFAS 159 permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. Adoption is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of the fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS 157. The adoption of SFAS 157 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

13.  DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GAAP (Continued) 

 

(a)  Recent accounting pronouncements: (continued) 

 

(iii)

SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”), is to replace SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations”. The new statement retains the fundamental requirements in SFAS No. 141 that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. The new standard defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control. The new statement improves the comparability of the information about business combinations provided in financial reports. SFAS 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company will assess the impact of this statement when a future acquisition occurs.

 
(iv)

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosure about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures about how and why an entity uses derivatives instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s operating results, financial position, and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for the Company’s 2009 fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently reviewing the provisions of SFAS 161. However, as the provisions of SFAS 161 are only related to disclosure of derivative and hedging activities, of which the Company has none, the Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS 161 will have a material impact on its consolidated operating results, financial position or cash flows.

 
(v)

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS 162”). The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with US GAAP for nongovernmental entities. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the Securities and Exchange Commission's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of SFAS 162 but does not expect adoption to have a material impact on results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

 
(b)  Exploration expenditures 

Under Canadian GAAP, acquisition costs of resource properties and exploration expenditures are capitalized (note 4(e)). Under US GAAP, exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When proven and probable reserves are determined for a property and a feasibility study is prepared, then subsequent exploration and development costs of the property would be capitalized. The capitalized costs of such properties are measured periodically for recoverability of carrying values.

13.  DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GAAP (Continued) 

 

(c)  Development stage company 

Pursuant to US GAAP, the Company would be subject to the disclosure requirements applicable to a development stage enterprise as the Company is devoting its efforts to establishing commercially viable mineral properties. However, the identification of the Company as such for accounting purposes does not impact the measurement principles applied to these consolidated financial statements.

(d)  Income taxes 

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (Accounting for Income Taxes)” (“FIN 48”), to create a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes, by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 is effective for after the Company’s fiscal year beginning November 1, 2007.

Under US GAAP effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 that prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation requires that the Company recognized the impact of a tax position in the financial statements if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure. In accordance with the provisions of FIN 48, any cumulative effect resulting from the change in accounting principle is to be recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of deficit. The adoption of FIN 48 did not result in a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

(e)  Reconciliation of total assets, liabilities and shareholders' equity (deficit): 

 

    2009     2008  
 
Total assets per Canadian GAAP  $  648,761   $  500,569  
Resource property costs    630,144     (480,724 ) 
Total assets per US GAAP  $  18,617   $  19,845

During 2008, the Company wrote-off $ NiI (2008 - $15,094; 2007 - $nil) of accounts payable, resulting in a recovery of expenses. These amounts had been in payables since 2002. Management believes these amounts are not liabilities of the Company; however, there is no assurance that these amounts will not be claimed in the future by the Company’s creditors. Should the creditors claim the amounts, the amounts will be recorded at that time and will impact future results of operations and cash flows.
