4 BRAZAURO RESOURCES CORPORATION NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (IN CANADIAN DOLLARS) OCTOBER 31, 2005 AND 2004 1. BASIS OF OPERATIONS Brazauro Resources Corporation ("the Company") is engaged in the business of exploring for and, if warranted, developing mineral properties. The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles and comply in all material respects with United States generally accepted accounting principles except as discussed in Note 7. The consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by Canadian and United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. This report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2005. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read or have access to the audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. In the opinion of management all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended October 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended January 31, 2006. SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES The nature of the Company's operations results in significant expenditures for the acquisition and exploration of properties. None of the Company's properties have been proven to have economically recoverable reserves or proven reserves at the current stage of exploration. The recoverability of the carrying value of mineral properties and deferred expenditures is dependent upon a number of factors including the existence of recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain financing to renew leases and continue exploration and development, and the discovery of recoverable reserves. Certain amounts in the financial statements for the periods ended October 31, 2004 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation as of October 31, 2005. All amounts are in Canadian dollars unless noted otherwise. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. 2. MINERAL PROPERTIES AND DEFERRED EXPENDITURES The Company cannot guarantee title to all of its Properties as the Properties may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers or native land claims, and title may be affected by undetected defects. The Company does not maintain title insurance on its properties. BRAZILIAN PROPERTIES Tocantinzinho Properties In August 2003 the Company entered into an option to acquire exploration rights to a total of 28,275 hectares in the Tapajos gold district in Para State, Brazil under an option agreement with two individuals. The option agreement entitles the Company to acquire a 100% interest in the exploration rights to such area (referred to herein as the 5 BRAZAURO RESOURCES CORPORATION NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) (IN CANADIAN DOLLARS) OCTOBER 31, 2005 AND 2004 2. MINERAL PROPERTIES AND DEFERRED EXPENDITURES (CONTINUED) "Tocantinzinho Properties") over a four-year period in consideration for the staged payment of US$465,000, the staged issuance of 2,600,000 shares of the Company and the expenditure of $1,000,000 (U.S.) on exploration ($300,000 (U.S.) by July 31, 2004). The Company received approval for the acquisition from the TSX Venture Exchange in August 2003 and made the initial payment required by the option agreement to the optionors, consisting of 1,100,000 common shares of the Company and $75,000 (U.S.). The Company made the second option payment, consisting of 200,000 common shares of the Company and $30,000 (U.S.), in February 2004. In August 2004 and July 2005, the Company made the third and fourth option payments, both consisting of 200,000 common shares of the Company and $40,000 (U.S.). As of October 31, 2005, the total commitment remaining under the option agreement is as follows (all amounts are in U.S. dollars): $130,000 and 200,000 common shares of the Company, and $150,000 and 700,000 common shares of the Company for the 2007 and 2008 fiscal years, respectively. Additionally, the option agreement requires the Company to assume all existing obligations of the optionors to the owners of the mineral rights of the Tocantinzinho Properties (the "Underlying Agreements") totaling $1,600,000 (U.S.) over a four-year period. At October 31, 2005, the remaining payment commitments under the Underlying Agreements are as follows (all amounts are in U.S. dollars): $30,000, $160,000 and $1,205,000 in fiscal years 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. The Company made payments totaling $35,000 (U.S.), $80,000 and $90,000 (U.S.) in respect of the Underlying Agreements during fiscal 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. One of the optionors entered into a consulting agreement with the Company for an 18-month period at a rate of $7,000 (U.S.) per month which expired during fiscal 2005. The payments under the option agreement, the Underlying Agreements and the consulting agreement are considered expenditures for purposes of meeting the required total and initial annual expenditures of $1,000,000 (U.S.) and $300,000 (U.S.), respectively, discussed above. During fiscal 2005 the Company met the requirement under the option agreement to expend a total of $300,000 (U.S.) and met the requirement to expend $1,000,000 (U.S.) on exploration. The Company has met its first year commitments under the option agreement, and the option agreement is cancelable by the Company without further obligations. The optionors are entitled to a sliding scale gross revenues royalty ranging from 2.5% for gold prices below $400 (U.S.) per ounce to 3.5% for gold prices in excess of $500 (U.S.) per ounce. The Company has received exploration licenses in respect of the central 4,000 hectare area of the Tocantinzinho Properties on which it has been focusing its exploration efforts as well as for a 9,315 hectare area forming the north eastern and eastern boundary of the Tocantinzinho Properties. The Company also holds rights to two other applications for exploration licenses filed with the regulatory authorities in Brazil. The Company has become aware that another company is claiming it holds rights to about 6,000 hectares of ground that is included in one of these applications (certain ground to the east and the south of the central 4,000 hectare area). The Company has investigated the details of this rival claim and has determined that the areas in which the Company has reported mineralization are not included in the ground subject to the rival claim. If an exploration license is issued to the other company, the Company's outstanding application may exclude ground covered by this rival's exploration license. The Company is not presently aware of any other competing claims to the balance of the ground subject to the outstanding applications and continues to anticipate receiving exploration licenses in respect of these applications in due course. The Company holds exploration permits for an additional 16,000 hectares adjacent to the western border of the above Tocantinzinho Properties. The Company has agreed to make payments totaling $300,000 (U.S.) over a period of approximately four years to an individual as a finder's fee related to this 16,000 hectare property. This additional property is not subject to the option agreement and therefore is not subject to the royalty. 6 BRAZAURO RESOURCES CORPORATION NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) (IN CANADIAN DOLLARS) OCTOBER 31, 2005 AND 2004 2. MINERAL PROPERTIES AND DEFERRED EXPENDITURES (CONTINUED) Mamoal Property The Company entered into an option agreement under which it may acquire the exploration license to the 10,000 hectare Mamoal Property, located 30 kilometers southeast of the Company's Tocantinzinho Properties, in December 2003. The Company has an option to earn 100% of the Mamoal Property by payment of a total of $300,000 (U.S.) over three and one half years. The Company may terminate the option agreement at any time without further obligation. An initial $10,000 (U.S.) payment was made by the Company in December 2003, and the exploration research license has been transferred to Jaguar Resources do Brasil Ltda. During fiscal 2005 and 2006, the Company made payments under the option agreement totaling $25,000 (U.S.) and $20,000 (U.S.), respectively. The remaining option payments are as follows (all amounts are in U.S. dollars): $25,000, $65,000, and $155,000 in fiscal years ending January 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. The Company may acquire the Mamoal Property at any time by accelerating the option payments. The Company has received the exploration license from the Brazilian regulatory authority. Batalha Property In September, 2004 the Company applied for an exploration license to the 9800 hectare Batalha Property, located in the Tapajos gold province in northern Brazil. The property, host to a well known "garimpo" or artisanal mine, lies at the western end of the Tocantinzinho trend. The Company has agreed to pay the original holder of artisanal mining rights of Batalha, who controls over 1,700 hectares lying within the exploration license and directly over the Batalha zone, the equivalent of approximately $91,000 Canadian dollars in Brazilian reals over a 42 month period with a buyout after 4 years of $250,000 (U.S.) (if the project is deemed economic by the Company) and an additional sum based on the number of ounces of gold in the proven and probable (or measured and indicated) categories at Batalha as set out in a pre-feasibility or feasibility study. The per ounce payment amount ranges in a sliding scale from US$1 per ounce for the first one million ounces up to $10 (U.S.) per ounce for each ounce over four million ounces. The 9,800 hectare exploration license lies over top of this area, covering extensions to north, south and west. If after four years the Company, in its sole opinion, has not found an economic ore body, the area and all collected data will be returned to the vendor.

SHARE CAPITAL (CONTINUED) In December 2004, the Company completed a private placement of 2,150,000 common shares of the Company at a price of $1.00 per share and received proceeds of $2,150,000. During August 2005 the Company closed a private placement of 5,000,000 units at $1.90 per unit for gross proceeds of $9,500,000. The Company paid a brokerage commission on the placement of $475,000. Each unit consists of one common share and one half of one share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional share of the Company at $3.80 for a period of one year. If the shares of the Company trade at $4.80 or higher on each trading day during a thirty day period, the exercise period of the warrants will accelerate and holders will have a period of 30 days thereafter to exercise their warrants, failing which they will expire. In the first three quarters of fiscal 2006, the Company granted incentive options as follows:
DATE OF EXERCISE EXPIRATION NUMBER GRANT PRICE DATE 100,000 February 15, 2005 $ 1.15 February 15, 2010 600,000 March 22, 2005 1.30 March 22, 2010 500,000 April 1, 2005 1.30 April 1, 2010 300,000 May 31, 2005 1.25 May 31, 2010 2,000,000 July 21, 2005 2.00 July 21, 2010 600,000 August 4, 2005 2.00 August 4, 2040
As of October 31, 2005, the Company had a total of 7,954,643 common stock options outstanding at prices ranging from $0.18 to $2.00. In the first nine months of fiscal 2006, employees, directors and consultants of the Company exercised a total of 2,748,929 common share options at prices ranging from $0.10 to $1.30, and the Company received exercise proceeds of $1,287,126. 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Except as described below, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or to which any of their property is subject. On May 15, 1998, a legal action styled James Cairns and Stewart Jackson vs. ------------------------------------ Texas Star Resources Corporation d/b/a Diamond Star, Inc. was filed in the 215th - --------------------------------------------------------- Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas, Cause No. 9822760 wherein the Plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the Company breached contractual agreements and committed fraud by not timely releasing or causing to be released from an escrow account required by Canadian law certain shares of the Company to which Plaintiffs allege that they were entitled to receive in calendar 1995 and, as a result of the Company's alleged actions with respect to the release of such shares, the Plaintiffs sought monetary damages for losses in share value, attorney's fees, court costs, expenses, interest and exemplary damages. In 1999, the litigation against the Company in Houston, Harris County, Texas, was dismissed by the court with prejudice, leaving only the claims of James M. Cairns, Jr. pending in British Columbia, which is generally described below. The legal action in Texas is similar to one filed against the Company in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, Canada, in August 1996 styled Cause No. C96493; James M. Cairns, Jr. vs. Texas Star Resources Corporation. In January ---------------------------------------------------------- 1993, the Plaintiffs were issued common stock of the Company in escrow which shares were to be released based on exploration expenditures by the Company on certain of its properties in Arkansas. The escrow requirements were imposed by the Vancouver Stock Exchange. Plaintiffs requested that all of the shares be released in 1995. At that time the Company believed that the release of said shares when requested by the Plaintiffs was inappropriate due to 9 BRAZAURO RESOURCES CORPORATION NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) (IN CANADIAN DOLLARS) OCTOBER 31, 2005 AND 2004 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED) legal requirements and regulatory concerns. The shares were subsequently released to the Plaintiffs. The Company intends to vigorously defend the allegations of the Plaintiffs in the pending litigation in British Columbia and in Texas (if the case is appealed or refiled) and believes it has meritorious defenses to such claims. No proceedings in the action in British Columbia have been taken by the Plaintiff since March 30, 2000. However, the Company cannot provide any assurances that it will be successful, in whole or in part, with respect to its defense of the claims of the Plaintiffs. If the Company is not successful, any judgment obtained by Plaintiffs could have a material and adverse effect on its financial condition. 5. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES General and administrative expenses consisted of the following:

7. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES ("GAAP") The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP, which differs in some respects from United States GAAP. The material differences in respect to these financial statements between Canadian and United States GAAP, and their effect on the Company's financial statements, are summarized below. Mineral Properties and Deferred Expenditures Under Canadian GAAP, companies have the option to defer mineral exploration expenditures on prospective properties until such time as it is determined that further work is not warranted, at which point property costs would be written off. Under United States GAAP, all exploration expenditures are expensed until an independent feasibility study has determined that the property is capable of commercial production. At this stage, the Company has not yet identified economically recoverable reserves on any of its properties. Accordingly, under United States GAAP, all exploration costs incurred are expensed. 11 BRAZAURO RESOURCES CORPORATION NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) (IN CANADIAN DOLLARS) OCTOBER 31, 2005 AND 2004 7.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND ------------------------------------------------------------------ RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ----------------------- Results of Operations - For the Three and Nine Month Periods Ended October 31, 2005 and 2004 All dollar amounts referred to herein are in Canadian Dollars unless otherwise stated. As of December 6 2005 the exchange rate is $1.00 (Canadian) = $0.8634 (U.S.) The Company is engaged in the business of exploring for and, if warranted, developing mineral properties and is concentrating its current acquisition and exploration efforts on those properties which the Company believes have large scale gold potential. The Company leases interests in properties located in the Tapajos Gold District of Brazil's northerly Para State (collectively the "Properties"). The Company has had no significant revenues from mining operations. None of its Properties have proven to be commercially developable to date and as a result the Company has not generated any revenue from these activities. The Company's existing Properties are gold prospects in Brazil, as discussed in Note 2, which were acquired during fiscal 2004 and 2005. The Company capitalizes expenditures associated with the direct acquisition, evaluation and exploration of mineral properties. When an area is disproved or abandoned, the acquisition costs and related deferred expenditures are written-off. The net capitalized cost of each mineral property is periodically compared to management's estimation of the net realizable value and a write-down is recorded if the net realizable value is less than the cumulative net capitalized costs. The Company's mineral properties and deferred expenditures increased to $4,793,277 at October 31, 2005 from $2,817,746 at January 31, 2005 as a result of acquisition costs totaling $624,083 and exploration costs totaling $1,351,448 related to the activities on the Company's Brazilian Properties as further described in Note 2. The increases were primarily due to the acquisition and exploration efforts of the Company related to its Tocantinzinho Properties. The Company completed a 20 hole diamond drill program (approximately 4000 meters) at the Tocantinzinho Properties during fiscal 2005 in which 19 of 20 holes encountered mineralization. The Company completed its fourteen-hole Phase III drilling program at the Tocantinzinho Properties in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. Drill results to date indicate an extended strike length of mineralization of greater than 650 meters in length 14 and confirm the earlier reported intercepts of low grade mineralization with several zones of high grade from 26.82 to 374.40 grams of gold per ton over widths of 2.5 to 0.85 meters. Additionally, the Company completed both a ground magnetic survey and metallurgical testing of drill core samples of the Tocantinzinho Properties during fiscal 2005 and 2006 and was encouraged by the results. The Company has signed a 3,000-meter drilling contract for continued drilling at the Tocantinzinho Properties, and work is expected to commence in January 2006. In October, 2005 the Company reported results of extensive airborne magnetic and radioactive surveys completed over the Tocantinzinho and Mamoal Properties. These geophysical surveys have successfully located several large additional magnetic low areas which will now be the subject of further exploration and drilling. In fiscal 2005 the Company carried out a regional soil auger sampling program on its Mamoal Property, in conjunction with channel-sampling of old pits and rock-chip sampling. At the Mamoal Property, core drilling commenced in November 2005 and an initial program of five to ten holes have been planned to test the broad linear geochemical gold anomalies outlined by the soil auger program completed in September 2005. Detailed results of the above testing, including maps of the ground magnetics and drill hole mineralization, are located at the company's website, www.brazauroresources.com. The Company's revenues during the three and nine month periods ending October 31, 2005 and 2004 were primarily comprised of interest income. The Company has not received any revenues from mining operations since inception. General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended October 31, 2005 increased by approximately $2,834,000 or 110% compared to the nine months ended October 31, 2004. Included in general and administrative expenses during the first nine months of fiscal 2006 and 2005 were approximately $3,417,000 and $1,512,000, respectively, of stock compensation expense recorded using the fair value method, which was an increase of approximately $1,905,000 in stock compensation expense from fiscal 2005 to fiscal 2006. The remaining increase in general and administrative expenses of approximately $929,000 was primarily related to the increased activities surrounding the exploration program underway in Brazil during fiscal 2006 and to bonuses to directors totaling approximately $ 273,000 granted in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended October, 2005 increased by approximately $1,290,000 or 150% compared to the three months ended October 31, 2004. Approximately $668,000 of this increase consisted of an increase in stock compensation expense. The remaining increase of $622,000 relates to the commencement of the drilling programs in Brazil and the bonuses to directors discussed above. The Company anticipates that general and administrative expenses during the remaining quarter of fiscal 2006 will increase compared to the level experienced in the first three quarters of fiscal 2006. The Company expects to incur additional consulting and exploration expenditures related to the Brazilian Properties as exploration activities continue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 on the Company's Tocantinzinho and Mamoal Properties. FINANCIAL CONDITION; LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. As of October 31, 2005, the Company had working capital of $9,984,970 as compared to working capital of $3,296,092 at January 31, 2005. At October 31, 2005, the Company had current assets of $10,168,243, including $10,135,776 in cash and $32,467 in accounts receivable compared to total current liabilities of $183,273. In September, 2002, the Company completed a private placement of 2,819,774 units at a price of $0.20 per unit, each unit consisting of one common share and one share purchase warrant with an exercise price of $0.25 per unit. The share purchase warrants had an expiration date of September 18, 2004. The Company received a total of $563,955 during fiscal 2003 representing subscriptions for the private placement. During fiscal year 2005, all 2,819,774 common share warrants were exercised, and the Company received total exercise proceeds of $704,943. 15 In November 2004, the Company completed a private placement of 2,112,500 common shares of the Company at a price of $0.85 per share and received proceeds totaling $1,795,625. In consideration for assistance with the private placement, the Company paid finders' fees of $96,950 in cash and issued 113,000 share purchase warrants entitling the finders to purchase 113,000 common shares of the Company at $1.05 per share until November 2, 2005. In the first three quarters of fiscal 2006, the holders of the share purchase warrants elected to exercise all 113,000 warrants and the Company received total proceeds of $118,650. In December 2004, the Company completed a private placement of 2,150,000 common shares of the Company at a price of $1.00 per share and received proceeds of $2,150,000. During August 2005 the Company closed a private placement of 5,000,000 units at $1.90 per unit for gross proceeds of $9,500,000. The Company paid a brokerage commission on the placement of $475,000. Each unit consists of one common share and one half of one share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional share of the Company at $3.80 for a period of one year. If the shares of the Company trade at $4.80 or higher on each trading day during a thirty day period, the exercise period of the warrants will accelerate and holders will have a period of 30 days thereafter to exercise their warrants, failing which they will expire. In the first nine months of fiscal 2006, employees, directors and consultants of the Company exercised a total of 2,748,929 common share options at prices ranging from $0.10 to $1.30, and the Company received exercise proceeds of $1,287,126. All financings described herein were private placements and were made pursuant to the private placement laws of Canada and pursuant to the exemptions provided by Section 4(2) and Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933. The Debentures were offered to a limited number of accredited investors in the United States and Canada pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D and Regulation S. The Company has no properties that have proven to be commercially developable and has no significant revenues from mining operations. The rights and interests in the Tocantinzinho, Mamoal and Batalha Properties in Brazil constitute the Company's current mineral holdings. The Company cannot estimate with any degree of certainty either the time or the amount of funds that will be required to acquire and conduct additional exploration activities on new prospects.
