NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 28, 2010 (unaudited)


NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION


The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 5, 2004.  The Company was initially formed to engage in the business of reclaiming and stabilizing land in preparation for construction in the United States of America. On November 27, 2006, the Company filed Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of Nevada in order to effectuate a merger whereby the Company (as Revelstoke Industries, Inc.) would merge with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Geneva Gold Corp. This merger became effective as of December 1, 2006 and the Company changed its name to Geneva Gold Corp. On March 1, 2007, the Company (Geneva Gold Corp.) merged with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Geneva Resources, Inc., pursuant to Articles of Merger that the Company filed with the Nevada Secretary of State. This merger became effective March 1, 2007 and the Company changed its name to Geneva Resources, Inc.  The Company is an exploration stage enterprise, as defined in FASB ASC 915 “Development Stage Entities”.

During 2007, the Company entered the business of exploration of precious metals with a focus on the exploration and development of gold deposits in North America and Internationally. During this period the Company entered into Option Agreements to obtain mineral leases in Canada, Panama, Peru and Nigeria.

The Company has a fiscal year of May 31. On May 5, 2006, the Company completed a forward stock split by the issuance of 42 new shares for each 1 outstanding share of the Company’s common stock. On October 13, 2006, the Company completed a forward stock split by the issuance of 4 new shares for each 1 outstanding share of the Company’s stock.

Going concern
To date the Company has generated minimal revenues from its business operations and has incurred operating losses since inception of $7,829,254.  As at February 28, 2010, the Company has a working capital deficit of $211,600.  The Company requires additional funding to meet its ongoing obligations and to fund anticipated operating losses.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependant on raising capital to fund its initial business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations.  Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company intends to continue to fund its mineral exploration business by way of private placements and advances from related parties as may be required. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

Unaudited Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  They do not include all information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  However, except as disclosed herein, there have been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2009 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with those financial statements included in the Form 10-K. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the nine months ended February 28, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending May 31, 2010.


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of Presentation
These financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions
Preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain 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 expenses during the period.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)


Mineral Property Expenditures
The Company is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties.

Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized in accordance with FASB ASC 930-805, “Extractive Activities-Mining”, when management has determined that probable future benefits consisting of a contribution to future cash inflows have been identified and adequate financial resources are available or are expected to be available as required to meet the terms of property acquisition and budgeted exploration and development expenditures.  Mineral property acquisition costs are expensed as incurred if the criteria for capitalization are not met.  In the event that mineral property acquisition costs are paid with Company shares, those shares are recorded at the estimated fair value at the time the shares are due in accordance with the terms of the property agreements.

Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred.

When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves and pre-feasibility, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized.

Estimated future removal and site restoration costs, when determinable are provided over the life of proven reserves on a units-of-production basis.  Costs, which include production equipment removal and environmental remediation, are estimated each period by management based on current regulations, actual expenses incurred, and technology and industry standards.  Any charge is included in exploration expense or the provision for depletion and depreciation during the period and the actual restoration expenditures are charged to the accumulated provision amounts as incurred.

As of the date of these financial statements, the Company has incurred only property option payments and exploration costs which have been expensed.

To date the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties.

Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 410-20 “Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations," which establishes standards for the initial measurement and subsequent accounting for obligations associated with the sale, abandonment or other disposal of long-lived tangible assets arising from the acquisition, construction or development and for normal operations of such assets. The adoption of this standard has had no effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. As of February 28, 2010 any potential costs relating to the ultimate disposition of the Company's mineral property interests are not yet determinable.

Income Taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment.  As at February 28, 2010 the Company had net operating loss carryforwards, however, due to the uncertainty of realization, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets resulting from these loss carryforwards. Deferred income taxes are reported for timing differences between items of income or expense reported in the financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes in accordance with FASB ASC 740-10, “Income Taxes,” which requires the use of the asset/liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Deferred income taxes and tax benefits are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for tax loss and credit carry-forwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The Company provides for deferred taxes for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carry-forwards when realization is more likely than not.

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Available For Sale Securities
The Company’s holdings in marketable securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value. The carrying value of marketable securities is reviewed each reporting period for declines in value that are considered to be other-than temporary and, if appropriate, the investments are written down to their estimated fair value. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary on available for sale securities are included in the Company’s statements of operations. Unrealized gains and unrealized losses deemed temporary are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

The following disclosures are required by FASB ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” in connection with assets and liabilities whose carrying amounts are subject to fair value measures:

In connection with the Company’s available for sale securities, May 31, 2009, no realized or unrealized gains and losses had been recorded in operations and all unrealized gains and losses have been recorded as components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).  During the period ended February 28, 2010 the Company sold all of the shares previously classified as available for sale for net proceeds to the Company of $54,810 and realized a loss of $215,190.

Net Income (Loss) per Share
The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Foreign Currency Translation
The financial statements are presented in United States dollars. In accordance with FASB ASC 830-10, “Foreign Currency Matters”, foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date.  Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the period.  Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.  To February 28, 2010, the Company has not recorded any translation adjustments into stockholders’ equity.

Stock-based Compensation
On June 1, 2006, the Company adopted FASB ASC 718-10, “Compensation- Stock Compensation”, under this method, compensation cost recognized for the year ended May 31, 2007 includes: a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of May 31, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to May 31, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 718-10.  In addition, deferred stock compensation related to non-vested options is required to be eliminated against additional paid-in capital upon adoption of FASB ASC 718-10. The results for the prior periods were not restated.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)


Stock-based Compensation (continued)

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718-10 and the conclusions reached by the FASB ASC 505-50.  Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.  The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by FASB ASC 505-50.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In accordance with the requirements of FASB ASC 480-10, the Company has determined the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies.  The fair value of financial instruments classified as current assets or liabilities approximate their carrying value due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-01, “Equity (Topic 505-10): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)”.  This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed if not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. This is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective basis.  The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-01 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary”.  This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP.  It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP.  An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FAS 160 (now included in Subtopic 810-10).  For those entities that have already adopted FAS 160, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted FAS 160.  The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-02 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-6, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” This update requires additional disclosure within the roll forward of activity for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the separate presentation of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements of assets and liabilities within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, the update requires enhanced disclosures of the valuation techniques and inputs used in the fair value measurements within Levels 2 and 3. The new disclosure requirements are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements of Level 3 measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. As ASU 2010-6 only requires enhanced disclosures, the Company does not expect that the adoption of this update will have a material effect on its financial statements.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)


Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 105-10, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles replaces SFAS No. 162, which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP.  Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The FASB will no longer issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts; instead the FASB will issue Accounting Standards Updates. Accounting Standards Updates will not be authoritative in their own right as they will only serve to update the Codification. The issuance of FASB ASC 105-10 and the Codification does not change GAAP. FASB ASC 105-10 becomes effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.  Management does not expect the adoption of FASB ASC 105-10 to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 810-10, “Consolidation”, which included the following: (1) the elimination of the exemption for qualifying special purpose entities, (2) a new approach for determining who should consolidate a variable-interest entity, and (3) changes to when it is necessary to reassess who should consolidate a variable-interest entity. FASB ASC 810-10 is effective for the first annual reporting period beginning after November 15, 2009 and for interim periods within that first annual reporting period. The Company will adopt FASB ASC 810-10 in fiscal 2011. The Company does not expect that the adoption of FASB ASC 810-10 will have a material impact on the financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 860-10, “Transfers and Servicing”, FASB ASC 860-10 eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures in order to enhance information reported to users of financial statements by providing greater transparency about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and an entity’s continuing involvement in and exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. FASB ASC 860-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company will adopt FASB ASC 860-10 in fiscal 2011. The Company does not expect that the adoption of FASB ASC 860-10 will have a material impact on the financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 855-10, “Subsequent Events.” FASB ASC 855-10 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. FASB ASC 855-10 applies to both interim financial statements and annual financial statements. FASB ASC 855-10 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of FASB ASC 855-10 during the period did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 944-20, “Financial Services-Insurance.”  FASB ASC 944-20 clarifies how SFAS 60, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts issued by insurance enterprises, including the recognition and measurement of premium revenue and claim liabilities. It also requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. FASB ASC 944-20 is effective for the Company’s interim period commencing June 1, 2009, except for disclosures about an insurance enterprise's risk-management activities, which were effective for the Company’s interim period commencing June 1, 2008. The adoption of FASB ASC 944-20 during the period did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

NOTE 3 –MINERAL EXPLORATION PROPERTIES (continued)


(a) Vilcoro Gold Property (continued)

On December 1, 2007, the Company entered into an extension agreement with St. Elias (the “December Extension Agreement”). The December Extension Agreement (i) acknowledges that in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Property Option Agreement, the Company must incur and pay exploration expenditures of not less than $500,000 prior to January 17, 2008, and (ii) provides an extension until March 31, 2008 to incur and pay such Exploration Expenditures. On June 4, 2008, an indefinite extension was granted by St. Elias to pay such Exploration Expenditures, based on the Operator’s work on schedule.

Under the terms of the Property Option Agreement, and in order to exercise its Option to acquire the properties, the Company is required to make the following non-refundable cash payments to St. Elias totaling $350,000 in the following manner:

1.  
Payment of $50,000 in cash (paid).
2.  
The second payment of $100,000 cash and 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are due on or before the twelve-month anniversary of the signing of the Property Option Agreement (paid).
3.  
The third payment of $200,000 cash is due on or before the twenty-fourth-month anniversary of the signing of the Property Option Agreement.

The Company is also required to incur costs totaling $2,500,000 as follows:

1.  
expenditures of $500,000 are to be incurred on or before the twelve month anniversary (subsequently indefinitely extended as described above) of the signing of the Property Option Agreement. ($551,000 was incurred from the inception of the agreement through May 31, 2009)
2.  
expenditures of $750,000 are to be incurred on or before the twenty-fourth-month anniversary of the signing of the Property Option Agreement; and
3.  
expenditures of $1,250,000 are to be incurred on or before the thirty-sixth-month anniversary of the signing of the Property Option Agreement.

Also under the terms of the Property Option Agreement, St. Elias will be the operator of the properties and will receive an 8% operator fee on all exploration expenditures.  Once the Company exercises the Option, the Company agrees to pay 100% of all ongoing exploration, development and production costs until commercial production and the Company has the right to receive 100% of any cash flow from commercial production of the properties until it has recouped its production costs, after which the cash flow will be allocated 66% to the Company and 34% to St. Elias.

On November 10, 2008, the Company commenced legal proceedings in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, Canada against each of St. Elias and John Brophy P. Geol.  The Company is seeking rescission of the property option agreement and the return of all funds and shares advanced by the Company to St. Elias.  The Company alleges that St. Elias failed to properly discharge its duty as an operator of the Vilcoro Property and also alleges that each of St. Elias and John Brophy failed to provide the Company complete and accurate information relating to the ownership of the Vilcoro Property and to the ownership of the adjacent property, including failing to disclose that John Brophy and his wife had an interest in the Vilcoro Property and the adjacent property.  The Company also has alleged that St. Elias used some of the exploration funds provided by the Company to fund the exploration of the adjoining property.

A statement of Defense was filed by St. Elias and John Brophy on December 23, 2008, denying the majority of the allegations made by Geneva Resources. In addition St. Elias and John Brophy also filed a counter claim against Geneva for abuse of process and punitive damages.  All allegations of Geneva, St. Elias and John Brophy remain to be proved in Court.  The Company will evaluate the collectability of its actions against St. Elias and John Brophy at the time of year end.

During fiscal 2009, the Company recorded a mineral property recovery of $50,000 in connection with the return of funds originally paid into trust to fund exploration activities.

On February 23, 2007, we entered into a formal property option agreement (the “Vilcoro Option Agreement”) with St. Elias pursuant to which St. Elias granted to us an option to acquire not less than the undivided 66% legal, beneficial and registerable interest in the Vilcoro Properties (the “Vilcoro Option”).

On December 1, 2007, we entered into an extension agreement with St. Elias (the “December 2007 Extension Agreement”). The December 2007 Extension Agreement acknowledged that in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Vilcoro Option Agreement, we must incur and pay exploration expenditures of not less than $500,000 prior to January 17, 2008 (the “Exploration Expenditures”), and provided us an extension until March 31, 2008 to incur and pay such Exploration Expenditures. On March 28, 2008, we entered into a second extension agreement with St. Elias (the “March 2008 Extension Agreement”), which provided us with an extension until June 30, 2008 to incur and pay such Exploration Expenditures. On June 4, 2008, we entered into a third extension with St. Elias (the “June 2008 Extension Agreement”), which provided us with an indefinite extension to pay such Exploration Expenditures based on the Operator’s work schedule.

Under the terms of the Vilcoro Option Agreement and in order to exercise the Vilcoro Option, we were required to make the following non-refundable cash payments to St. Elias aggregating $350,000 as follows: (i) $50,000 within five business days from the execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement, which as of the date of this Quarterly Report, was paid; (ii) $100,000 due on or before the 12-month anniversary of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement (which was paid); and (iii) $200,000 due on or before the 24-month anniversary of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement.

In accordance with the terms and provisions of the Vilcoro Option Agreement, we were further required to: (i) issue to St. Elias 50,000 shares of our restricted common stock on or before the 12-month anniversary of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement (which as of the date of this Quarterly Report have been issued); and (ii) incur costs totaling $2,5000,000 as follows: (a) expenditures of $500,000 were to be incurred on or before the 12-month anniversary of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement of which $551,000 had been advanced from inception of the agreement until the date of this Quarterly Report (which date was subsequently extended indefinitely based on the June 2008 Extension Agreement); (b) second expenditure of $750,000 was to be incurred on or before the 24-month anniversary of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement; and (iii) third expenditure of $1,250,000 was to be incurred on or before the 36-month anniversary of execution of the Vilcoro Option Agreement.

Under further terms of the Vilcoro Option Agreement: (i) St. Elias would have been the operator (the “Operator”) of the Vilcoro Properties and would have received an 8% operator fee on all exploration expenditures; (ii) once we exercised the Vilcoro Option, we agreed to pay 100% of all on-going exploration, development and production costs until commercial production (the “Production Costs”); and (iii) we would have had the right to receive 100% of any cash flow from commercial production of the Vilcoro Properties until we recouped the Production Costs after which the cash flow would have been allocated 66% to us and 34% to St. Elias.

Phase I Exploration Program. We were previously engaged in our Phase I exploration program. The Vilcoro Property comprised approximately 1,600 hectares and lay along the game geological belt of Tertiary rocks that host deposits in northern Peru, such as Newmont’s Yanacocha Mine and Barrick’s Pierina deposit. A total of 256 channel samples and 28 check samples had been collected from outcrops, trenches and underground workings, which sample preparation and analytical work was undertaken at ALS Chemex SA Laboratory (an ISO-certified facility) in Lima Peru, using standard industry practice fire assay with an atomic absorption finish. Most of the channel samples were three to five meters long. This work defined two mineralized trends referred to as the Main Trend and the South Trend. Six individual mineralized zones (Zones 1 through 6) had been identified within the Main Trend and three individual mineralized zones (Zones A through C) had been identified within the South Trend. The South Trend laid approximately 200 meters to the south of the Main Trend and comprised an east-west alignment (parallel to the Main Trend) of mineralized hydrobreccia occurrences in three zones.
 
On approximately April 9, 2008, we received a technical report (the “Technical Report”) in accordance with the provisions of National Instrument 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators on the Vilcoro Properties. The Technical Report was authored by John A. Brophy, P.Geo., who has thirty-two years of continuous geological experience on exploring for a variety of commodities including gold, copper, zinc, lead, uranium and silver. Based on the contents of the Technical Report, management was pleased with the evidence of disseminated mineralization on the Vilcoro Properties with average ore grades of 0.8 g/t, and previously continued fieldwork at Vilcoro Properties with emphasis on additional trenching between the individual zones on the Main Trend. The Technical Report is available on our website at www.genevaresourcesinc.com.
 
Litigation and Statement of Claim. On November 6, 2008, we filed a Writ of Summons and Statement of Claim (collectively, the “Statement of Claim”) against St. Elias and John A. Brophy (“Brophy”) in the Supreme Court of British Columbia. The Statement of Claim relates to the Property Option Agreement.
 
The Statement of Claim alleges the following claims:  (i) in tort against Brophy alleging  non-disclosure of material facts and complete and accurate information relating to the  ownership of the Vilcoro  Property and to the  ownership of the adjacent property, including failing to disclose that Brophy and his wife had an interest in the Vilcoro Property and the adjacent property, which entitles us to rescind the  Property  Option  Agreement  and return of an aggregate of $150,000 paid to St. Elias under the Property Option Agreement, an aggregate of $486,000 paid in exploration  expenditures,  and 50,000 shares of our common stock issued to St.  Elias; (ii) breach of the Property Option Agreement relating to the failure by St. Elias to provide to us all data and information in its possession or under its control relating to St. Elias' exploration activities on and in the vicinity of the Vilcoro Properties; and (iii) breach of the Technical Services Agreement by failure of St. Elias to timely prepare and provide a budget or work programs or to expeditiously advance the work on the Vilcoro Properties and diversion by St. Elias of money, time and  resources.

On December 23, 2008, a statement of defense was filed by St. Elias and Brophy denying the majority of the allegations made by us in our Statement of Claim. In addition, St. Elias and Brophy also filed a counter claim against us for abuse of process and punitive damages. All allegations by us, St. Elias and Brophy remain to be proved in court. See “Part II. Item 1. Legal Proceedings.”
 
During the nine month period ended February 28, 2010, we recorded a mineral property recovery of $50,000 in connection with the return of funds originally paid by us into trust to fund the exploration activities.
 
 
San Juan Property
 
On approximately November 16, 2006, we entered into a property option agreement (the “Petaquilla Option Agreement”) with Petaquilla Minerals Ltd. (“Petaquilla”). In accordance with the terms and provisions of the Petaquilla Option Agreement, Petaquilla granted to us the sole and exclusive option (the “Option”) to acquire up to a 70% undivided interest in and to five exploration concessions situated in the Republic of Panama (the “San Juan Property”), which are owned and controlled by Petaquilla’s wholly-owned Panamanian subsidiary.

During 2007, certain disputes arose between us and Petaquilla which were resolved during 2008 by way of a settlement agreement (the “Settlement”), mutual release and the ultimate termination of the Petaquilla Option Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement: (i) Petaquilla shall issue 100,000 shares of its common  stock to us, subject to pooling and release in four equal monthly tranches commencing no later than December 31, 2008 and certain other conditions, (ii) the 4,000,000 shares of the restricted common stock previously issued by us to Petaquilla shall be returned to us; and (iii) the $100,000 previously paid by us in order to exercise the initial portion of the Option shall be returned to us.

As of May 31, 2008, we received $100,000 and the return of the 4,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock with an estimated fair value of $5,440,000. In addition, we recorded the 100,000 common shares of Petaquilla, with an estimated fair value of $270,000, as accounts receivable as of May 31, 2008. The total proceeds of $5,810,000 was included in amounts recorded as gain on settlements during 2008.

During fiscal year ended May 31, 2009, we received the 100,000 common shares from Petaquilla, which were previously valued at $270,000. As of May 31, 2009, the 100,000 shares received had an estimated value of $55,000 ($0.55 per share). During the nine month period ended February 28, 2010, we sold the shares for net proceeds to us of $54,810 for a loss on disposal of $215,190.

Amelia and San Martin

As of November 30, 2009, we entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with Glenn Patrick Schmitz (the “Optionor”), in connection with the proposed acquisition of an 80% interest in thirty-nine mineral concessions located near Domyeko in Chile. In accordance with the terms and provisions of the Letter Agreement: (i) we will pay the Optionor $5,000 upon execution of the Letter Agreement, which as of the date of this Quarterly Report, has been paid; (ii) we will issue to the Optionor an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of our restricted common stock as follows: (a) 500,000 shares as the initial tranche within thirty days of execution of a formal and  definitive agreement (the “Formal Agreement”), (b) 1,000,000 shares upon the expiration of the first twelve month period after execution of the Formal Agreement, and (c) 500,000 shares upon the expiration of the second twelve month period after execution of the Formal Agreement; (iii) we will pay the Optionor further amounts as follows: (a) $300,000 prior to the expiration of the first twelve month period after execution of the Formal Agreement, (b) an amount to be paid by us as exploration expenditures prior to expiration of the second twelve month period after execution of the Formal Agreement, which amount shall be solely and exclusively determined by us based on the first year term drilling and exploration results, and (c) an amount to be paid by us as exploration expenditures prior to expiration of the third twelve month period after execution of the Formal Agreement, which amount shall be solely and exclusively determined by us based on the second year term drilling and exploration results.

Subsequent to November 30, 2009, we engaged in due diligence. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we have decided not to proceed with this proposed acquisition and have made a request for a refund of the $5,000 deposit.

PROPOSED FUTURE BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Our current strategy is to complete further acquisition of other mineral property opportunities which fall within the criteria of providing a geological basis for development of mining initiatives that can provide near term revenue potential and production cash flows to create expanding reserves. We anticipate that our ongoing efforts, subject to adequate funding being available, will continue to be focused on successfully concluding negotiations for additional interests in mineral properties. We plan to build a strategic base of producing mineral properties.

Our ability to continue to complete planned exploration activities and expand acquisitions and explore mining opportunities is dependent on adequate capital resources being available and further sources of debt and equity being obtained.

Our comprehensive loss during the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 was approximately ($783,243) compared to a comprehensive loss of ($600,489) for the nine month period ended February 28, 2009 (an increase of $182,754).

During the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, respectively, we did not generate any revenue. During the nine month period ended February 28, 2010, we incurred general and administrative expenses in the aggregate amount of $103,798 compared to $483,697 incurred during the nine month period ended February 28, 2009 (a decrease of $379,899). The operating expenses incurred during the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 consisted of: (i) office and general of $14,336 (2009: $13,570); (ii) consulting fees of $28,050 (2009: $188,907); (iii) mineral property expenditures of $-0- (2009: $90,000); and (iv) professional fees of $61,412 (2009: $191,220). The decrease in general and administrative expenses incurred during the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 compared to the nine month period ended February 28, 2009 resulted primarily from a decrease in consulting fees and professional fees and a decrease in mineral property expenditures based upon the decrease in acquisition and development of our mineral properties and current status of the scale and scope of exploratory programs.  General and administrative expenses generally include corporate overhead, financial and administrative contracted services, marketing and consulting costs.

The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 59,366,763 at February 28, 2010 compared to 38,389,953 at February 28, 2009.
 
Three Month Period Ended February 28, 2010 Compared to Three Month Period Ended February 28, 2009.
 
Our comprehensive loss during the three month period ended February 28, 2010 was approximately ($642,160) compared to a comprehensive loss of ($227,215) for the nine month period ended February 28, 2009 (an increase of $414,945).

During the three month period ended February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, respectively, we did not generate any revenue. During the three month period ended February 28, 2010, we incurred general and administrative expenses in the aggregate amount of $50,098 compared to $67,315 incurred during the three month period ended February 28, 2009 (a decrease of $17,217). The operating expenses incurred during the three month period ended February 28, 2010 consisted of: (i) office and general of $8,376 (2009: $4,250); (ii) consulting fees of $6,750 (2009: $30,000); and (iii) professional fees of $34,972 (2009: $33,065). The decrease in general and administrative expenses incurred during the three month period ended February 28, 2010 compared to the three month period ended February 28, 2009 resulted primarily from a decrease in consulting fees based upon the decrease in acquisition and development of our mineral properties and current status of the scale and scope of exploratory programs.

The incurrence of general and administrative expenses resulted in a net operating loss of ($50,098) during the three month period ended February 28, 2010 compared to a net operating loss of ($67,315) during the three month period ended February 28, 2009. Net operating loss during the three month period ended February 28, 2010 was further increased by the recording of a loss on disposal of available for sale securities $215,190 (2009: $-0-) and interest expense of $592,062 (2009: $41,900). This resulted in a net loss of ($857,350) during the three month period ended February 28, 2010 compared to a net loss of ($109,215) during the three month period ended February 28, 2009.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Nine Month Period Ended February 28, 2010

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.

As at February 28, 2010, our current assets were $11,658 and our current liabilities were $223,258, resulting in a working capital deficit of $211,600. As at February 28, 2010, our total assets were $176,668 compared to total assets of $222,085 as at May 31, 2009. Total assets as at February 28, 2010 consisted of: (i) $6,658 in cash; (ii) $5,000 in receivables; and (iii) $165,010 in deposits on properties. As at February 28, 2010, our current liabilities were $223,258 compared to current liabilities of $2,203,490 as at May 31, 2009. Our current liabilities consisted of $223,258 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The substantial decrease in current liabilities was primarily due to the decrease in shareholder’s loan and accrued interest resulting from the settlement of certain outstanding advances and accrued interest. See “Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.”

Stockholders’ deficit increased from ($1,981,405) as at May 31, 2009 to ($46,590) as at February 28, 2010.
 
We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities. For the nine month period ended February 28, 2010, net cash flow used in operating activities was ($101,131) compared to net cash flow used in operating activities of ($518,192) for the nine month period ended February 28, 2009. Net cash flow used in operating activities during the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 consisted primarily of a net loss of ($998,433) adjusted by $215,190 in non-cash loss on disposal of available for sale securities and $592,062 in non cash financing costs related to conversion of loans payable. Net cash flow used in operating activities during the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 was further changed by ($5,000) in increase in receivables, $87,385 change in accrued interest on shareholder’s loan and $7,667 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

During the nine month period ended February 28, 2010, net cash provided by investing activities was $54,810 compared to net cash flow provided by investing activities of $-0- for the nine month period ended February 28, 2009. Net cash flow provided by investing activities during the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 pertained to $54,810 realized in proceeds on disposal of available for sale securities.

During the nine month period ended February 28, 2010, net cash flow provided by financing activities was $50,904 compared to net cash flow provided by financing activities of $515,000 for the nine month period ended February 28, 2009. Net cash flow provided from financing activities during the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 pertained to $350,000 received as proceeds on sale and subscriptions of common stock offset by ($299,096) in proceeds from shareholder advances net of repayments. Net cash flow provided from financing activities during the nine month period ended February 28, 2009 pertained to $515,000 received as proceeds from shareholder advances.

PLAN OF OPERATION

Existing working capital, further advances and possible debt instruments, anticipated warrant exercises, further private placements, and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next six months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt securities.

Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.

During the nine month period ended February 28, 2010, we received $350,000 towards a planned private placement of units to be offered at $0.05 per unit. Each unit is to consist of one share of our restricted common stock and one warrant to acquire an additional share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 for twelve months (the “Units(s)”). The private placement offering is under Regulation S of the Securities Act. On December 8, 2009, we issued an aggregate of 7,000,000 shares of our common stock at $0.05 per share in connection with the received share subscriptions. See “Part II. Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.”
 
 

 
26

During the nine month period ended February 28, 2010, our Board of Directors authorized the settlement of debt with a certain creditor (the “Creditor”), which debt consisted of outstanding advances, loans and accrued interest and other amounts aggregating $1,776,188 (the “Debt”). The Debt was evidenced by that certain convertible promissory note dated December 4, 2009 in the principal amount of $1,776,188 issued to the Creditor evidencing the Debt (the “Convertible Promissory Note”). In accordance with the terms and provisions of the Promissory Note, in the event we were unable to repay the Debt, the Debt could be satisfied by way of conversion of the Debt into shares of our restricted common stock at the rate of $0.03 per share. Further effective on December 7, 2009, our Board of Directors authorized the issuance of an aggregate of 59,206,200 shares of our common stock. See “Part II. Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.”

The report of the independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies our fiscal year end May 31, 2009 and May 31, 2008 audited financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared "assuming that we will continue as a going concern," which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.
 
MATERIAL COMMITMENTS
 
 
As of the date of this Quarterly Report and other than as disclosed below, we do not have any material commitments for fiscal year 2009/2010.
 
Shareholder Loan

On November 14, 2006, one of our shareholders advanced to Petaquilla an aggregate of $100,000 on our behalf. Additional advances of $303,500 and $795,000 were received during fiscal years ended May 31, 2007 and May 31, 2008, respectively. During fiscal year ended May 31, 2009, an additional $540,000 was advanced by the same shareholder under the same terms and conditions. During the nine month period ended February 28, 2010, a further $25,904 was advanced by the same shareholder under the same terms and conditions. During the nine month period ended February 28, 2010, an aggregate of $325,000 of accrued interest was repaid by us to the shareholder. Therefore, as at November 30, 2009, we owed an aggregate of $1,776,188 in principal and accrued interest. Effective on December 7, 2009, our Board of Directors authorized the settlement of the remaining outstanding amount due and owing of $1,776,188. The debt was evidenced by a convertible promissory note dated December 1, 2009 in the principal amount of $1,776,186 (the “Convertible Note”). In accordance with the terms and provisions of the Convertible Note, in the event we could not repay the debt, the debt could be satisfied pursuant to conversion of the debt into shares of our restricted common stock at $0.03 per share. See “Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities”. In addition to the conversation the Company recognized an additional expense of $592,062 to Additional Paid in Capital.

PURCHASE OF SIGNIFICANT EQUIPMENT

We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next twelve months.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows due to adverse changes in foreign currency and interest rates. 
 
EXCHANGE RATE
 
Our reporting currency is United States Dollars (“USD”).  Since we have acquired properties outside of the United States, the fluctuation of exchange rates may have positive or negative impacts on our results of operations. However, any potential revenue and expenses will be denominated in U.S. Dollars, and the net income effect of appreciation and devaluation of the currency against the U.S. Dollar would be limited to our costs of acquisition of property.
 
INTEREST RATE
 
Interest rates in the United States are generally controlled. Any potential future loans will relate mainly to acquisition of properties and will be mainly short-term. However our debt may be likely to rise in connection with expansion and if interest rates were to rise at the same time, this could have a significant impact on our operating and financing activities. We have not entered into derivative contracts to hedge existing risks for speculative purposes.
 
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of February 28, 2010, which is the end of the nine month quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). As of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report, based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information that we must disclose in our reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the “Exchange Act”, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis, and that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2010. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.
 
 

 
28

This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm De Joya Griffith & Company, LLC., Certified Public Accountants regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective at the “reasonable assurance” level.

Changes in Internal Controls

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during this fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Board of Directors has established an audit committee. The members of the audit committee are Mr. Marcus Johnson and Mr. Angelo Viard. One of the two members of the audit committee is “independent” within the meaning of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act.  The audit committee was organized on April 25, 2006 and operates under a written charter adopted by our Board of Directors.

The audit committee has reviewed and discussed with management our audited financial statements as of and for the nine month period ended February 28, 2010. The audit committee has received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from De Joya Griffith & Company, LLC., Certified Public Accountants required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees, as amended.

Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the audit committee has recommended to the Board of Directors that the reviewed financial statements referred to above be included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine month period ended February 28, 2010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

STATEMENT OF CLAIM

On October 26, 2009, Stacey Kivel, former president of the Company filed a lawsuit of wrongful dismissal in the State of Nevada. During July 2007, we terminated the employment of Stacey Kivel, our then President, for cause. Subsequently, Ms. Kivel has made certain false allegations against us. Although we refute her allegations and believe termination was justified, it is possible that we may be exposed to a loss contingency, which cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. As of the date of this filing no significant progress has been made in resolution of the lawsuit.
 
On November 6, 2008, we filed a Writ of Summons and Statement of Claim (collectively, the “Statement of Claim”) against St. Elias and John A. Brophy (“Brophy”) in the Supreme Court of British Columbia. The Statement of Claim relates to the Property Option Agreement.
 
The Statement of Claim alleges the following claims:  (i) in tort against Brophy alleging  non-disclosure of material facts and complete and accurate information relating to the  ownership of the Vilcoro  Property and to the  ownership of the adjacent property, including failing to disclose that Brophy and his wife had an interest in the Vilcoro Property and the adjacent property, which entitles us to rescind the  Property  Option  Agreement  and return of an aggregate of $150,000 paid to St. Elias under the Property Option Agreement, an aggregate of $486,000 paid in exploration  expenditures,  and 50,000 shares of our common stock issued to St.  Elias; (ii) breach of the Property Option Agreement relating to the failure by St. Elias to provide to us all data and information in its possession or under its control relating to St. Elias' exploration activities on and in the vicinity of the Vilcoro Properties; and (iii) breach of the Technical Services Agreement by failure of St. Elias to timely prepare and provide a budget or work programs or to expeditiously advance the work on the Vilcoro Properties and diversion by St. Elias of money, time and  resources.
 
On December 23, 2008, a statement of defense was filed by St. Elias and Brophy denying the majority of the allegations made by us in our Statement of Claim. In addition, St. Elias and Brophy also filed a counter claim against us for abuse of process and punitive damages. All allegations by us, St. Elias and Brophy remain to be proved in court.  
 
PETAQUILLA OPTION AGREEMENT

On February 27, 2007, we received notice pursuant to a news release from Petaquilla that the board of directors of Petaquilla resolved to rescind the Petaquilla Option Agreement. We are current in our obligations under the Petaquilla Option Agreement and dispute the alleged rescission and have advised Petaquilla that the Option is in good standing.
 
 

 
30

Therefore, in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Petaquilla Option Agreement, we filed a notice with the British Columbia International Commercial Arbitration Centre (the “BCICAC”) seeking arbitration. On March 5, 2007, we filed a Statement of Claim with the BCICAC seeking specific performance of the Petaquilla Option Agreement and damages. On April 10, 2007, Petaquilla filed a Statement of Defense.

On March 14, 2008, we entered into the Settlement. Pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Settlement: (i) Petaquilla shall issue 100,000 shares of its common stock to us, which shares shall be released from pool in four equal monthly tranches beginning on the first commercial pour of gold at the Molejon Gold Mine or December 31, 2008, whichever comes first, and which shares shall be subject to a two business day right of first refusal for Petaquilla to find a buyer or five business days if the sale is private; (ii) the 4,000,000 shares of the restricted common stock previously issued by us to Petaquilla in accordance with the terms and provisions of the First Option shall be returned to us (which as of the date of this Quarterly Report has been returned); and (iii) the $100,000 paid by us on approximately November 17, 2006 in order to exercise the initial portion of the Option was returned to us.

On April 11, 2008, we entered into the Release pursuant to which the terms of the Settlement were acknowledged. In accordance with the terms and provisions of the Release, the parties agreed to release each other and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and assigns from any and all causes of action, claims and demands of any nature or kind whatsoever arising up to the present date relating to the Petaquilla Option Agreement and to any of the subject matter of the arbitration proceedings. It is anticipated that the pending arbitration proceedings will be dismissed with the British Columbia International Commercial Arbitration Center.

As of May 31, 2008, we received $100,000 and the return of the 4,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock with an estimated fair value of $5,440,000. During fiscal year ended May 31, 2009, we received the 100,000 common shares from Petaquilla, which were previously valued at $270,000. As of May 31, 2009, the 100,000 shares received had an estimated value of $55,000 ($0.55 per share). During the nine month period ended February 28, 2010, we sold the shares for net proceeds to us of $54,810 for a loss on disposal of $215,190.

CEASE TRADE ORDER OF THE BRITISH COLUMBIA SECURITIES COMMISSION
 
Our shares of common stock are registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We, therefore, file annual and other reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. On November 29, 2007, we received a cease trade order (the “CTO”) from the British Columbia Securities Commission (the “BCSC”), which is limited to the Province of British Columbia, for not filing a technical report under Canadian National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) respecting certain previous disclosure regarding certain of our material property interests. As a consequence of the CTO, we have engaged legal counsel in connection with this matter in order to determine the exact manner in which we will be able to satisfy the requirements of NI 43-101, as required by the parameters as set forth for foreign issuers under Canadian National Instrument 71-102 Continuous Disclosure and Other Exemptions relating to Foreign Issuers.
 
 
 
31

On approximately March 10, 2010, we received an order for production from the BCSC with regards to production of certain documents under Section 141 of the Securities of, RSBC 1996, c. 418. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we have fully responded to the BCSC and submitted all requested documentation.
 
Management is not aware of any other legal proceedings contemplated by any governmental authority or any other party involving us or our properties. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, no director, officer or affiliate is (i) a party adverse to us in any legal proceeding, or (ii) has an adverse interest to us in any legal proceedings. Management is not aware of any other legal proceedings pending or that have been threatened against us or our properties.
