CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our Company prepares our financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in
We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act. This election allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.
Going Concern
Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
implies that we will continue to realize our assets and discharge our
liabilities in the normal course of business. We have generated no revenues to
date and have an accumulated deficit of

Long-Lived Assets
Long-Lived assets, such as property and equipment, mineral properties, and purchased intangibles with finite lives (subject to amortization), are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 360 "Property, Plant, and Equipment". Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.

Recoverability of assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by an asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. The estimated fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Any impairment in value is recognized as an expense in the period when the impairment occurs.
Income Taxes
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. We have adopted ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, as of its inception. Pursuant to ASC 740, we are required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because we cannot be assured it is more likely than not we will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We review new accounting standards as issued. Although some of these accounting standards issued or effective after the end of our previous fiscal year may be applicable to us, we have not identified any standards that we believe merit further discussion. We believe that none of the new standards will have a significant impact on our financial position, future operations or cash flows.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since inception we have raised capital through debt financing, advances from related parties and private placements of our common stock. Our capital commitments for the coming 12 months consist of administrative expenses, expenses associated with the completion of our planned exploration program and costs of distribution of our securities. Including this exploration work and other costs, we estimate that we will have to incur the following expenses during the next 12 months:

We have no plant or significant equipment to sell, nor are we going to buy any plant or significant equipment during the next 12 months. We do not intend to hire any employees at this time.
Limited Operating History; Need for
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance as an exploration corporation. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources.
We have no assurance that financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to commence, continue, develop, or expand our exploration activities. Even if available, equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.
