MANO RIVER RESOURCES INC. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002 (Stated in U.S. dollars) 1. CONTINUING OPERATIONS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company, which commenced operations on July 10, 1996, is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of gold and diamond properties. The Company is in the development stage and has no source of cash flows other than loans from related parties or equity offerings. The Company also has a working capital deficiency and does not have sufficient funds to satisfy its liabilities. These consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company's ability to continue on a going concern basis depends on its ability to successfully raise additional financing. If the Company cannot obtain additional financing the Company may be forced to realize its assets at amounts significantly lower than the current carrying value. Uncertainty also exists with respect to the recoverability of the carrying value of certain resource properties. The ability of the Company to realize on its investment in resource properties is contingent upon resolution of the uncertainties and continuing confirmation of the Company's title to the resource properties. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada and reflect the following significant accounting policies. The United States dollar has been identified as the Company's currency of measurement and is used for external reporting purposes. MANO RIVER RESOURCES INC. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002 (Stated in U.S. dollars) 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (a) Principles of consolidation These financial statements include the accounts of Mano River Resources Inc. and its principal subsidiary, Mano River Resources Ltd. These financial statements also include a number of subsidiaries as detailed in the following list: Percentage Company Place of Incorporation Ownership _________________________________ ____________________ ________ Equinox Resources (Wash) Inc. Washington, United States 100% Mano River Resources Limited and British Virgin Islands 100% its subsidiaries: Golden Limbo Rock Resources Limited and its 100% owned subsidiary Tortola, British Virgin Islands 91% Golden Limbo Rock Ressources SA Conakry, Guinea Golden Leo Resources Limited Tortola, British Virgin Islands 93.8% Lofa Goldiam, Inc. and its 100% owned subsidiaries: Tortola, British Virgin Islands 97.6% Bea Mountain Mining Corporation Monrovia, Liberia Kpo Resources Incorporated Monrovia, Liberia The shares not legally owned by the Company in the listed subsidiaries are held by one third party company. This third party has no beneficial interest in the shares and is holding the shares until the Company and the third party agree on their ultimate distribution. As the Company retains the beneficial interest in these shares no non-controlling interest exists at January 31, 2003. (b) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consists of cash on hand, deposits in banks and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of ninety days or less. (c) Investments Investments are recorded at cost, subject to a provision for any impairment that is determined to be other than temporary. MANO RIVER RESOURCES INC. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002 (Stated in U.S. dollars) 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (d) Resource properties and deferred exploration costs The Company follows the method of accounting for its mineral properties whereby all costs related to acquisition, exploration and development are capitalized by property. The carrying value of pre-production and exploration properties is reviewed periodically and either written off when it is determined that the expenditures will not result in the discovery of economically recoverable ore reserves or transferred to producing mining property, plant and equipment when commercial development commences. The recoverability of amounts shown for pre-production and exploration properties is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, confirmation of the Company's interest in the underlying mineral claims, the ability of the Company to finance the development of the properties and on the future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition thereof. (e) Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (f) Loss per share The basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The fully diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution of common share equivalents, such as outstanding stock options and share purchase warrants, in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year, if dilutive. For this purpose, the "treasury stock method" is used for the assumed proceeds upon the exercise of stock options and warrants that are used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the year. (g) Foreign currency translation The Company's foreign currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars using the temporal method. Under this method monetary items are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items are translated at historical rates and revenue and expense items are translated at exchange rates prevailing when such items are recognized in the statement of operations. Gains and losses on foreign exchange translation are credited or charged to income. MANO RIVER RESOURCES INC. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002 (Stated in U.S. dollars) 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (h) Stock-based compensation The Company has adopted the recommendations of the new CICA Handbook section 3870, Stock-Based Compensation and Other Stock-Based Payments, effective February 1, 2002. This section establishes standards for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments made in exchange for goods and services. The standard requires that all stock-based awards made to non-employees be measured and recognized using a fair value based method. The standard encourages the use of a fair value based method for all awards granted to employees, but only requires the use of a fair value based method for direct awards of stock, stock appreciation rights, and awards that call for settlement in cash or other assets. When the fair value method is not used, disclosure is required of the pro forma impact of using the fair value of stock options on the reported results of operations. Awards that a company has the ability to settle in stock are recorded as equity, whereas awards that the entity is required to or has a practice of settling in cash are recorded as liabilities. This policy applies to all stock options granted subsequent to February 1, 2002. The Company has elected not to adopt the fair value method and pro forma disclosure is provided in Note 6 (f). Compensation expense is recognized when stock options are issued to employees and directors using the intrinsic value based method whereby compensation cost is recorded for the excess, if any, of the quoted market price at the date granted over the exercise price. Any consideration paid by employees and directors on exercise of stock options is credited to share capital. If stock options are repurchased from employees and directors, the excess of the consideration paid over the carrying amount of the stock options is charged to deficit. Compensation expense is determined when stock options are issued to non-employees and is recognized over the vesting period of the option. The compensation expense is determined as the fair value of the option at the date of grant using an option pricing model. (i) Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes whereby future income tax assets and liabilities are computed based on differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and their corresponding tax values using the enacted income tax rates at each balance sheet date. Future income tax assets also result from unused loss carry-forwards and other deductions. The valuation of future income tax assets is reviewed annually and adjusted, if necessary, by use of a valuation allowance to reflect the estimated realizable amount. Although the Company has tax loss carry-forwards (see Note 8), there is uncertainty as to utilization prior to their expiry. Accordingly, the future income tax asset amounts have been fully offset by an uncertainty provision. MANO RIVER RESOURCES INC.

SHARE CAPITAL (Continued) (f) Stock options (continued) The following pro forma financial information presents the net loss for the year and the basic loss per common share had the Company adopted the fair value method of accounting for stock options as set out in CICA Handbook Section 3870, Stock-Based Compensation and Other Stock-Based Payments. 2003 ___________ Net loss for the year $ (352,217) Stock-based compensation cost (161,606) ___________ Pro forma net loss $ (513,823) ___________ Pro forma basic loss per share $ (0.005) ___________ Using the fair value based method for stock-based compensation, additional costs of approximately $161,606 would have been recorded for the year ended January 31, 2003. This amount was determined using an option pricing model assuming no dividends were paid, a weighted-average volatility of the Company's share price of 145%, and weighted-average annual risk free rate of 5.22%. 7. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE The Company entered into a convertible debenture agreement with respect to settling advances from a company controlled by a director. Advances totaling $200,000 will, under this debenture, be repayable on April 30, 2004 together with accumulated interest at 6% per annum. The principal amount is convertible by the holder into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of #0.04 per share at any time prior to maturity. In accordance with the recommendations of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants, the convertible debenture issued has been segregated into its debt and equity components. The financial liability component, representing the value allocated to the liability at inception, is recorded as a long-term liability. The remaining component, representing the value ascribed to the holders' option to convert the principal balance into common shares, is classified in shareholders' equity as "Equity component of convertible debenture". These components have been measured at their respective fair values on the date the convertible debenture was originally issued. MANO RIVER RESOURCES INC.

("Mano" or the "Company") covering the year ending January 31st, 2003 are provided herein for your review. Description of Business Mano River Resources Inc is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of gold and diamond properties. The Company, through its subsidiaries, holds interests in properties located in Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea. Operations and Financial Condition The Company incurred a net loss of $352,217 or $0.003 per share for the year ended January 31, 2003 as compared to a net loss of $2,283,123 or $0.023 per share in 2002. This is a $1,930,906 decrease in net loss compared to fiscal year 2002. The decrease was primarily due to there having been no write-off of mineral properties in the year ended January 31, 2003, as compared to $1,863,333 of write-offs in fiscal year 2002. The operating expenses were $354,832 for 2003, compared with $436,846 for 2002. The decrease of $82,014 over 2002 was mainly due to a reduction in management fees and mine maintenance expenses. The increase in transfer agent and filing fees of $32,088 (2002 - $24,115) and professional fees of $126,651 (2002 - $94,413) was mainly due to costs associated with filing various agreements and transactions with the regulatory authorities. Revenue for the year was $8,183 of interest income, as compared to $17,056 in 2002, a decrease of $8,873. Total assets on January 31, 2003 were $12,253,662 as compared to $11,436,086 in 2002. As at January 31, 2003, the Company had total current liabilities of $420,859 as compared to $856,999 for the same period in 2002. During the year the Company was able to convert $200,000 of advances from a company controlled by a director into a convertible debenture due April 30, 2004. The Company was also able to settle outstanding debts with directors or companies with which they are associated in the amount of $294,395 by issuing 5,219,759 common shares. This reduction in current liabilities improved the Company's working capital position significantly. As at January 31, 2003, current liabilities include $305,195 due to related parties for management fees, bridging loan and reimbursable expenses. As at January 31, 2003, the Company had current assets of US$186,255 as compared to US$127,876 for the same period in 2002. The Company had as at January 31, 2003 working capital deficiency of $216,604 as compared to working deficiency of $729,123 in 2002. During the year ended January 31, 2003, the Company successfully raised $1,094,815 net of costs to maintain its working capital, exploration and development obligations. Notable variances in the deferred exploration expenditures (DEE) for the financial year ending 31st January 2003 compared to the previous financial year are as follows: 2003 2002 _______ ___________ Assays $ 1,906 102,876 Licences 144,584 45,649 Project/field costs 73,522 134,790 Expenditure on assays was significantly lower in the financial year as the Company concentrated its exploration programme on advancing its earlier stage gold and diamond projects in Sierra Leone. The amount expended in the previous financial year related to significant drill core and mini-bulk sample analyses from Mano's more advanced Liberian gold and diamond programmes respectively. The major element in the increased expenditure on licences in the 2002/03 period was the upfront, one-time, signature fee payment of $50,000 for each of the Company's two Mineral Development Agreements in western Liberia, effectively 25-year renewable mining licences covering the Company's Bea Mountains and Kpo Range exploration projects. The recommencement of the Company's exploration programmes in Sierra Leone on its prospective but earlier stage projects, in comparison to those in Liberia, resulted in reduced expenditure on associated project costs such as rent, utilities and general supplies. The DEE for the period totalled $769,107, which the Company considers to be very modest in relation to the value created for shareholders. The Company's ability to continue its operations is dependent on its ability to secure additional financing in the near term and, while it has been successful in doing so in the past, there can be no assurance it will be able to do so in the future. In order to continue developing its mineral properties, management is actively pursuing such additional sources of financing, including joint ventures with industry partners. Exploration and Project Development During the year under review, exploration activity was primarily focussed on Sierra Leone and Canada, with little activity in Liberia due to the deteriorating security situation. Exploration can be summarised as follows: a. Sierra Leone - DIAMONDS In February 2002, Mano announced that the company was to recommence its diamond exploration programme in the highly prospective diamondiferous Kono District of Sierra Leone, across its three Exclusive Prospecting Licences ("EPLs") originally acquired between 1996 and 1998. The Company's scheduled work programme followed the official declaration, on the 18th January 2002, of the cessation of the civil war in the country which had been preventing exploration and mining development. The three Mano diamond Licences (Yengema, Njaiama and Nimini) lie immediately adjacent to the well-known diamondiferous Koidu kimberlite pipes (see the Company's website http://www.manoriver.com/mano/projects/ diamonds_sl_kono.shtml for location map). These pipes, on which mining commenced in the 1960s, have reported grades and diamond values of 35cpht and $200/ct, respectively. In addition, the Koidu and Yengema area has been extensively mined for alluvial diamonds, mainly by artisans but also by private and state-owned companies. In 1969, total historical diamond production from alluvial sources in the immediate Koidu area was estimated to be 9 million carats (Hall P.K. (1969); The Diamond Fields of Sierra Leone.). The dyke swarm associated with the Koidu pipes is reported to extend into Mano's Yengema and Njaiama licences. Mano considers that the Koidu pipes and associated dykes are unlikely to be the sole sources for the diamonds produced from the Kono area and believes that undiscovered kimberlites occur within its licences. Evidence includes the many artisanal workings that produce diamonds of distinctly different colour and morphology to those of Koidu, which are mainly coated. Furthermore, many of the alluvial diamonds are exploited in areas where the topography suggests new primary sources. In October, Mano announced that it had received highly encouraging initial results from its detailed work across a number of kimberlite anomalies, identified within its Kono EPLs. Kimberlite was located in as many as 18 separate localities, considered to form part of an extensive diamondiferous kimberlite dyke system. Two previously unmapped kimberlite dykes, designated Lion-1 and Lion-2, had been discovered with inferred strike lengths of 5km and 6km, respectively. A mini-bulk sample of approximately 1.7 tons of diluted kimberlite material from Lion-1 returned a highly encouraging minimum diamond grade of 49 carats per hundred tonnes (cpht). As part of the programme, Mano initiated an intensive loam sampling exercise over the five strong but relatively isolated anomalies identified and prioritized from the results of the Phase-1 stream sediment reconnaissance survey (see news release dated May 27th 2002, http://www.manoriver.com/news/ nr02/nr0211_27may.pdf). All five of these anomalous areas show G10 garnets and contain active artisanal diamond mining. Mano has already identified kimberlites in three of these areas. It was the intention of this loam sampling programme to better define the known kimberlites, including Lion-1 and Lion-2, and locate any further kimberlite occurrences within the blocks. Approximately 1,000 samples were collected and processed. Mano's immediate aim is to seek to repeat, in Sierra Leone, the kimberlite exploration success it has already amply demonstrated in Liberia. b. Sierra Leone - GOLD Elsewhere in Sierra Leone, at the northern end of the Sula Mountains greenstone belt, the first phase of gold exploration work on the Sonfon Joint Venture with Golden Prospect got under way in August. Geochemical soil grids situated over known shear zones, together with litho-geochemical sampling of trenches and pits, was carried out in order to generate possible drill targets. c. Liberia - GOLD In March, Mano announced that it had signed two Mineral Development Agreements (MDAs) with the Government of Liberia covering its mineral projects. The MDA is a key element of the new progressive Liberian Mining Law and Regulations introduced during 2000 and 2001, granting the holder inter alia, the following basic rights: * A three year exploration period, renewable for a further two years for a reduced area * Automatic and exclusive right to mine discoveries, by declaring one or more production areas * Mining rights valid for 25 years, renewable for a further 25 years The MDA constitutes a combined exploration and mining licence, eliminating the often lengthy process seen elsewhere of negotiation of a mining licence only following the completion of the exploration phase. The two MDAs which have been granted award Mano exclusive rights to all minerals (other than hydrocarbons) over 1,000 square kilometres in the Bea Mountains and a further 200 square kilometres in the Kpo Range, targeting respectively all the significant gold and diamond prospects to emerge from Mano's exploration programme in Liberia to date. The basic fiscal terms of Mano's MDAs, are as follows: * Corporation Tax limited to 30% * Production Royalty of 3%, tax deductible * Free carried interest to the government of 10%, (but with dividends payable only after recovery of all exploration and construction expenditure and loans) * Exemption from import tax and duties on capital equipment * No withholding tax on dividends paid offshore * Freedom to operate offshore accounts In April, the Company appointed ACA Howe International Limited of the UK (Howe) and Metallurgical Design and Management Pty Limited of South Africa (MDM) to prepare an independent bankable feasibility study (BFS), for both the KGL and Weaju gold properties in the Bea Mountains MDA, with the aim of commencing gold production in 2004 as soon as funding is put in place. The study was to examine the economics of an operation with an initial production from open pits of 25,000 ounce per year. Studies previously carried out for KGL by Lakefield laboratories in Toronto, showed up to 96% gold recovery achieved in test work. Very preliminary estimates, based on initial data supplied by MDM and using a $275 per ounce gold price, suggest that both projects should have very robust economics. Unfortunately, a deteriorating security situation in Liberia, especially during the second half of 2002, has prevented the company from instigating this study, which remains on hold. KGL and Weaju are only two of many gold prospects in Mano's 1,000 sq km Bea Mountains MDA: hosted by shear zones, which stretch for tens of kilometres across the Archaean granite-greenstone terrain in western Liberia. Barely 5% of the measured major mineralised shear structures within the Licence have been explored to date. As part of KGL's BFS, approximately 2,000m of additional drilling will be needed to bring part of the resource up to reserve status. d. Liberia - DIAMONDS In June, Mano announced the signature of a Heads of Agreement for the creation of a Diamond Exploration Joint Venture in Liberia with the TRANS HEX GROUP (THG) of South Africa. The venture will focus on Mano's Mineral Development Agreement (MDA) covering a 200 square kilometre area of the Kpo Range in western Liberia. THG can earn a 50 percent interest in the MDA, by completing over a period of three years Phases 1 & 2 of a programme involving a total expenditure of approximately US$2 million. During Phase 1, THG will fund a detailed airborne geophysical survey with the objective of locating any remaining kimberlites in the cluster first discovered by Mano in 2001. Phase 2 is to involve bulk sampling over one or more kimberlites. The parties will co-fund Phase 3, comprising a Feasibility Study and Construction. Alternatively, at Mano's option, THG may be granted the right to sole fund Feasibility Studies and Construction, to the start of Production from one or more kimberlites, to earn an additional 19% equity in the MDA. Trans Hex is a niche producer of large, gem-quality diamonds, with annual production exceeding 200,000 carats. Their exploration, mining and marketing activities are principally focused in Southern Africa. This joint venture programme is scheduled to get under way as soon as the security situation in Liberia improves. GUINEA There was no activity in Guinea during the period under review, other than to maintain the exploration licences in good standing. Mano's Guinean geologist was seconded to Sierra Leone, where he gained valuable experience in both gold and diamond exploration techniques. CANADA In May, Mano announced the signature of a Heads of Agreement for the creation of a Diamond Exploration Joint Venture in Quebec, Canada, with International Taurus Resources Inc. of Vancouver ("Taurus"). The venture focuses on a 7,500-square-kilometre area of the James Bay Lowlands, southwest of the Otish Mountains. Mano can earn 26 percent of the venture by completing Phases 1 & 2, which require C$1.25 million in expenditures, and may earn a total of 51 percent with the expenditure of an additional C$2.5 million. Mano may earn a further ten percent in a particular property by completing a pre-feasibility study on that property. The James Bay Lowlands area, underlain by the Archaean Superior craton, already contains numerous kimberlite and diamond discoveries. The Taurus data included 77,000 line-kilometres of helicopter-borne high-intensity geophysical survey, together with extensive geological and geochemical data. More than 100 new targets, including several "clusters" and distinct "bull's-eye" anomalies, which are consistent with possible kimberlite intrusions, have been identified. Kimberlites are known at Kirkland Lake, on the western side of the project area, and near Desmaraisville, on the eastern side. Mano announced in August that further mineral claims had been staked bringing the total number to 40 covering more than 15,000 hectares. Detailed ground magnetic surveys were completed on the 12 most recently staked claims, confirming the favorable nature of the prospects. Mano's Canadian diversification is complementary to its exploration portfolio and was not intended in any way to diminish the company's commitment to its pioneering hard rock gold and diamond production in the Mano River Union countries of Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea. Having completed Phase 1 of the JV, ground acquisition, phase 2 is on hold pending the raising of the necessary financing. Corporate Developments and Liquidity On March 21st, 2002, Mano granted incentive stock options ("Options") to the following directors: A P Rhatigan, two million; G E Pas, two million; T G Elder, one million; to purchase common shares in the capital stock of the Company. The Options, exercisable at a price of Cdn$0.11 per share for a period of five years ending on March 21st 2007, were subsequentlyapproved by the TSX Venture Exchange. At the same time, the Company announced that the second part of the previously announced transaction with Resources Investment Trust PLC ("REIT"), whereby REIT agreed to purchase 2,100,000 common shares of the Company at a price of GBP0.0325 per share for total proceeds of GBP68,250 (approximately US$100,000), closed on March 7, 2002, having received TSX Venture Exchange approval on February 5, 2002. The proceeds from this transaction were used for general working capital. In May, Mano announced that it had arranged a non-brokered Private Placement under which AIM-listed Golden Prospect plc (GP) invested GBP244,000 in new Mano shares. At the same time, the two companies concluded a Heads of Agreement (HoA) under which they combine and jointly explore their contiguous exploration licences in the Sonfon region of central Sierra Leone. The placing was at a price of GBP0.04 per share and the 6,100,000 new shares subsequently received TSX Venture Exchange approval and were admitted to trading on AIM. Following the placing, Golden Prospect held approximately 5.7% of the issued share capital of the Company. Under the HoA signed between Mano and GP, Mano as operator undertook to fund the initial US$75,000 of an exploration programme for the 50:50 Joint Venture. Within their adjoining exploration licences totalling 256 square kilometres, gold targets were to be investigated by geochemical soil grids, trench sampling and assaying. The licences are located in an area underlain by the pre-eminent greenstone belt in Sierra Leone. The proceeds of the Placing were used by Mano to fund the first phase of the joint venture programme in Sonfon, to continue the Company's exploration programme over its range of promising hard rock gold and diamond targets elsewhere in the Mano River Union countries, and for general working capital purposes. On May 21st, Mano announced that it had arranged a further brokered Private Placement in the UK and Europe by Loeb Aron & Company Limited of 3,000,000 common shares at GB#0.04 per share to raise gross GBP120,000. The Placing was approved by the TSX Venture Exchange and the new shares subsequently admitted to trading on AIM. Also on May 21st, Mano announced that it had approved arrangements reached with a number of parties to satisfy US$294,395 accrued and due for payment as of 31 January 2002 with Mano shares at a price of GB#0.04. The debt settlement, in combination with the concurrent non-brokered and brokered private placements, strengthened Mano's financial position as it aggressively pursues exploration of its promising mineral properties. Mano also announced that it had been advised by Mining Capital Partners Limited ("MCP"), a wholly-owned entity of the Synergy Asset Management Group of Geneva, acquired 17,282,233 common shares at an average price of GBP0.066 per share from various parties on 5 May 2002. This holding represented approximately 16.5 per cent of the issued share capital of the Company on the date of acquisition. Synergy Asset Management is engaged in alternative fund management. Mano also announced that Malcolm Burne had been elected to the Board of Directors at its AGM held on 19th June 2002. Mr. Burne is Executive Chairman and director of Golden Prospect Mining Plc., listed on AIM, and has many years of experience in the mineral exploration and development industry. Mano was pleased to add that experience to its Board. Roger Haiat, who has served as a director since 1998, did not go forward for re-election and his term of office ended at the AGM. The Company expressed its gratitude for Roger's valuable contribution to Mano's development over the previous four years. In July, Mano announced that the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V") and the disinterested shareholders of the Company had approved an amendment to the release schedule of its escrow agreement dated July 19, 1995. As a result the 2.8 million escrowed shares will no longer be subject to a release schedule based on expenditures made by the Company on its Van Stone Mine Property and will instead be released in increments over the period ended July 10th, 2005. The total of 2.8 million escrowed shares have already been issued and have always been included in statements of shares outstanding. In October, the Company announced that it had completed the issuance of 3,531,016 new common shares at a price of GB#0.07 (approximately Cdn$0.15) per share in settlement of debts of GB#247,171 owed to a number of parties in Canada and the United Kingdom and originally announced on September 12, 2001. The final tranche of 1,207,786 shares of the 3,531,016 common shares have now been issued in the United Kingdom and are subject to a four month hold (i.e. lock-up) period which expires on February 8, 2003. In addition to the above noted shares for debt, the Company announced that it had also completed the issuance of 5,219,759 new common shares at a price of GB#0.04 (approximately Cdn$0.08) per share in settlement of debts of GB#208,791 owed to a number of parties in Canada and the United Kingdom as announced on May 21, 2002. Out of the 5,219,759 common shares, 17,730 shares were subject to a 12 month hold period expiring on October 11, 2003, while the remaining 5,202,029 were subject to a 4 month hold period expiring on February 12, 2003. On November 27th, Mano announced that it had arranged, subject to regulatory approval, a partially-Brokered Private Placement to raise gross proceeds of up to GBP310,000. The brokered Placing was arranged in the UK and Europe of 7,000,000 common shares at GBP0.02 per share by Loeb Aron & Company Limited for proceeds of GB#140,000. Each share has one half warrant attached, which can be exercised at GBP0.03p for the first twelve months following the closing of the Placement and at GBP0.04p for the subsequent twelve months. Commission of 5% is due to be paid to Loeb with respect to this GBP 140,000 placing. In a concurrent non-brokered placing arranged by the Company, a further 8.1 million shares and 4.05 million warrants were placed on the same terms for gross proceeds of GBP162,000. The shares were subsequently approved by the TSX Venture Exchange and admitted to trading on AIM. The proceeds of the Placing were to be used by Mano to continue the Company's exploration programme over its range of promising gold and diamond targets in the Mano River Union countries, and for general working capital purposes. On January 3rd 2003, Mano announced that it had closed the Placement raising gross proceeds of GB#302,000. Investor Relations A total of 24 News Releases were issued during the year under review, recording material developments affecting the Company. Meanwhile, Mano's very comprehensive website, www.manoriver.com, was totally re-vamped and continues to be given high priority. Investor relations remain of prime importance to the Company, and in May 2003 Mano announced the appointment of Britton Financial PR ("Britton") to handle its Investor Relations. Britton is a financial PR company based in the City of London, dealing with a variety of sectors. Its strengths lie in the personal relationships it has with the media and with the financial community, through the extensive contacts and experience of its staff. Britton's aim is to lift Mano's profile so as to achieve a better understanding in the investment community of the Company's portfolio of gold and diamond exploration projects in West Africa. Subsequent Events - Corporate In May 2003, Mano announced that Seymour Pierce Limited has been appointed as the Company's Nominated Adviser on the London Stock Exchange - AIM market with immediate effect. Seymour Pierce Ltd together with Seymour Pierce Ellis Ltd, Mano River's Nominated Broker, are a leading adviser and broker to AIM, with some one hundred retained corporate clients. They are specialists in providing research, corporate broking and corporate finance advice to smaller quoted companies and have a growing specialism in extractive industries. In June 2003, The Company announced that the board of directors had adopted a stock option plan (the "Plan") pursuant to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange. The Plan is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval and shareholder approval. The Plan will allow for the reservation of up to 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares as at the date of a particular stock option grant (the Company currently has 133,890,216 (10% = 13,389,021) shares issued and outstanding). Options under the Plan may be granted to the Company's directors, officers, employees, management company employees and consultants. Upon receipt of all necessary approvals, the Plan will govern any outstanding stock options previously granted and any new stock options issued. Also in June 2003, the Company announced that it had arranged, subject to regulatory approval, a brokered Private Placing to raise gross proceeds of GBP431,250 from existing and new institutional investors. The brokered Placing was arranged in the UK of 17,250,000 common shares at GBP0.025 per share through Seymour Pierce Ltd. Application will be made for approval of the Placing by the TSX Venture Exchange and for the new shares to be admitted to trading on AIM. The proceeds of the Placing will be used by Mano to continue the Company's exploration programme over its range of promising gold and diamond targets in the Mano River Union countries, and for general working capital purposes. Subsequent Events - Exploration In February 2003, Mano announced further very encouraging results from its mini-bulk sampling of the Lion-1 kimberlite dyke within its EPLs in the Kono diamond district of Sierra Leone. Macro-diamonds had already been reported by the Company from a 1.7ton mini-bulk sample of Lion-1, which yielded 5 diamonds in the +2.0mm size fraction weighing in total 0.85-carats, for a minimum grade of 49 carats per hundred tonnes (49cpht - see Mano news release dated October 2nd 2002, http://www.manoriver.com /news/nr02/nr0200 02oct.pdf). Subsequent sorting of the +0.71mm to -2.0mm kimberlite concentrate in South Africa yielded a further 17 macrodiamonds weighing a total of 49.69mg or 0.25 carats. The calculated grade for the 1.7 tonne mini-bulk sample of Lion-1 is therefore now 64.6 cpht. These diamonds were weighed and described by John Gurney's Laboratory, Mineral Services, in Cape Town, the complete results of which are shown in Table 1. In summary, the February, 2003 Kono Lion 1 exploration programme highlights are as follows: - * The Lion-1 kimberlite dyke has been mapped discontinuously along strike for approximately 5km. * A mini-bulk sample of kimberlite material from Lion-1 of approximately 1.7 tons, including significant dilution by granite, was collected, washed and gravitated on site. The sample yielded 22 diamonds for a total weight of 1.1-carats from the +0.71mm size fraction, suggesting an initial minimum grade of 64.6 cpht * The largest stone recovered from the Lion-1 mini-bulk sample weighed 0.32 carats and is of gem quality * Lion-1 is associated with abundant G10 garnets and a petrographic analysis of this kimberlite confirms its high interest potential * Kimberlite has been identified elsewhere throughout the area, many occurrences coinciding with significant artisanal diamond workings and high interest indicator mineral chemistry * Loam sampling and microprobe results from Mano's EPLs are expected by early February 2003 * Diamonds of 110-carats (officially reported) and 400-carats and 1,400-carats (both unofficially reported) have been recovered during 2002 from the area immediately adjacent to Mano's EPLs in Kono. In February 2003, Mano also reported highly encouraging results from its Sonfon Joint Venture gold exploration programme in Sierra Leone. The Sonfon district contains Sierra Leone's richest and most prolific historic gold fields, across the country's pre-eminent Sula Mountains greenstone gold belt. (See map www.manoriver.com/properties/sl_lakesonfon.html.) A 3 km long northwest trending gold-in-soil anomaly identified by a 25ppb contour, was defined by a geochemical soil sampling programme and termed the Yanfarina-Dalakuru-Sende (YDS) gold zone. The programme included 879 samples, covering an area of approximately 50km2, which were assayed by SGS Laboratories in Ghana. The YDS zone is coincident with an area of extensive artisanal gold workings and is within a prominent structure, approximately 9km long by 5km wide. Trenching within the anomalous zone has identified a series of high grade gold-bearing narrow veins (stockwork) that could represent a highly significant bulk tonnage gold target. Results from a previous regional soil geochemical programme conducted by Mano identified certain gold anomalies assaying up to 3,227ppb (3.2 g/t) coincident with and up to 5km north and 4km south of the YDS zone. A series of recent trenches targeting primary vein gold mineralization on the side of the Yanfarina River north of Dalakuru, returned the following highly encouraging results. Phase-1 YDS Zone Trench Samples Trench Length (m) Grade (g/t) Au DT-1 3.5 3.6 DT-2 0.9 1.6 DT-3* 1.9 24.9 DT-4 6.0 0.5 DT-5 2.0 0.2 DT-6 7.3 7.4 DT-7 5.9 3.6 *including 0.45 108 The mineralised quartz tourmaline veins trend north westerly and range between 0.1m and 1m wide. The vein stockwork has been traced continuously over a distance of at least 75m with artisans having masked its continuation through their mining activities. It is considered likely that the veins exposed in Trench DT-4 along strike are part of the same system suggesting a minimum length of 150m. Grab samples from a 3m wide highly silicified outcrop 5km northeast of the YDS gold zone, range from 1 to 12.6 g/t for an average of 6.3 g/t. A previous channel sample taken by IMC Mackay & Schnellman (IMC) assayed 3m@10.3 g /t. IMC reported the area to be "highly prospective for primary gold targets".

Previous work has identified gold occurrences related to major shear structures in areas with extensive artisanal gold workings. The presence of gold in the Sonfon area has historical reference, with the name of the local river 'Sende', translating to "gold bearing water". Active artisanal gold workings are found extensively across the Sonfon district. The prospect has reportedly been described by independent consultants IMC as hosting the 'potential for the discovery of gold deposits of significant size'. In June 2003, Mano announced the acquisition of the 'North Pampana' EPL, which hosts the high grade Yirisen gold deposit and strategically adjoins Mano River's 'South Pampana' EPL in central Sierra Leone. The North Pampana EPL contains the well known Yirisen gold deposit and several further gold anomalies as defined by a 1980's United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) funded geochemical programme. Mano will be integrating the extensive results of the UNDP programme in to the Company's Geographical Information System, which includes satellite imagery and structural analysis of the Pampana district, with the aim of generating further gold targets and extensions to the known gold mineralized trend. In February 2003, Mano River reported grab sample gold results of up to 4.5 grams per tonne (g/t) gold taken from quartz veins within talc schists in the South Pampana EPL, from a phase-1 reconnaissance survey 3km east of the town of Massamank, 10km southwest of Yirisen and in a area of active artisanal gold workings (see www.manoriver.com/mano/investor/nr/nr0305_17feb.pdf). Satellite imagery and UNDP mapping indicates the mineralization encountered in the South Pampana EPL lies within the same lithostructural unit as the Yirisen deposit. Mineralisation was first noted at Yirisen by the Geological Survey of Sierra Leone in 1958. Seven north easterly trending sub-vertical lodes of quartz veining, averaging 150m in length were identified and returned gold values of between 5.5 and 48 g/t over widths of between 0.7 and 6.4 metres. The host rocks are predominantly talc schists with extensive pervasive sulphide mineralization. Artisanal miners are currently working the Yirisen gold deposit to depths of up to 15 metres. In one exceptional instance a narrow (one metre wide) shaft has been sunk to an estimated depth of over 75 metres. Artisanal gold workings currently define a strike length of over 1km to the known mineralization, which remains open in both directions. The North Pampana licence acquisition completes Mano River's portfolio of gold targets in Sierra Leone, comprising: i. The Joint Venture (JV) with Golden Prospect Plc (AIM:GOL) over two contiguous exploration licences in the Sonfon area, within the northern end of the Sula Mountains greenstone gold belt. The JV has defined a 3km long gold in soil anomaly, below which trenching has revealed a gold-bearing stockwork vein system with a best trench intersection of 7.3m @ 7.4g/t (see www.manoriver.com/mano/projects/gold_sl_sonfon.shtml). ii. The two strategically located Nimini Central and Nimini South EPLs within the Nimini Hills greenstone gold belt (see www.manoriver.com/mano/projects/ gold_sl_nimini.shtml) which host parts of known lode gold deposits shared with two EPLs held by AfCan Mining (TSX-V:AFK), namely Nimini East and Nimini West and over which AfCan recently announced the signature of a Heads of Agreement for a Joint Venture with Ashanti Goldfields iii. The North and South Pampana EPLs containing the Yirisen gold deposit within the Yirisen-Massamank mineralised trend, 30km north of the Baomahun gold deposit where a joint venture was recently announced between Mr Ronald Winston and Caldera Resources (TSX:CDR) In the few years since its reverse takeover in 1998, Mano has made considerable progress in advancing in exploration programme. The fundamental strategy of being geologically-driven has been fully justified by, for example, the identification of a potentially major new Archaean gold belt in western Liberia, and the discovery of the first known diamondiferous kimberlites in that country. In neighbouring Sierra Leone, work is still at a very early stage, but Mano's diamond programme has already produced very promising results and a first class portfolio of greenstone gold properties is being assembled. Looking to the future, the Company's strategy will continue to be one of seeking high quality partners, like Trans Hex, its joint venture partner in Liberia, to help advance the diamonds programme. For gold, it is already clear that, once the security problems are resolved, one or more of Mano's discoveries in western Liberia has the potential to be put into production by the Company at a modest scale, given the continued support of its investors and access to adequate debt financing facilities. While contemplating this course of action, due consideration will also be paid to the alternative strategy of conducting further exploration in order to increase the resource/reserve to a level where production of +/-100,000 oz of gold per year becomes a viable proposition. Two flagship projects discovered to date at KGL and Weaju, display clear potential for increased resources in both strike and depth extensions. Given that these projects and several new prospects lie within a central trucking distance (25km) of each other and may possess the same good (>90%) free milling metallurgy, Mano have the option of developing several deposits simultaneously using a centrally placed treatment facility (see www.manoriver.com/properties/liberia_bea.html). The way forward for Mano will lie in striving to achieve the optimum mix of joint venture partnerships and self-funding, while adding to the portfolio value through in-house application of sound exploration methodology in this highly prospective West African terrain. Management encourages shareholders and other interested parties to contact the following individuals at any time for information about the activities of Mano: Tom Elder President and CEO UK +44 (0) 1235 810 740 Gary Middleton Britton Financial UK +44 20 7251 2544 Guy Pas Co-Chairman Switzerland +41 22 758 2151 Anthony Rhatigan Co-Chairman Mobile +44 (0) 7785 297 348 Co-Chairman's Message Pre-Pioneering and Early Selection They were pioneering days when in 1989 I co-founded Samax and we decided to make Tanzania our principal exploration target or were they in fact even pre-pioneering days? In 1996 at the very first Indaba African Mining Conference the only 'pioneering' gold producer willing to team up with Samax was Resolute. They eventually turned Samax's first discovery into their very own Golden Pride mine in the space of 12 months and for under $50m. Samax laid claim to a second discovery (half of Geita) and was successfully taken over by Ashanti in 1998, 9 years after its pre-pioneering beginnings. Much of the success was of course due to attractive geology and early ground selection. After the acquisition of SAMAX the construction of the US$165 million Geita mine began in 1999. The first gold was poured in 2000, about three months after AngloGold purchased its 50% interest for $205m. Geita is set to produce 600,000 ounces in 2003 alone. As such these Majors themselves were involved in groundbreaking and pioneering activities in their own right. The road to Tanzania's first one million ounces was a rather long one, but afterwards as is typical when a new gold province is opened up, the growth of resources then mineable reserves is exponential. Geita's resource is now a staggering 16.2moz, while Barrick's Bulyanhulu is an impressive 12moz. By 2004 the first five gold mines will have injected a total capital investment of US$600m in to the country. The Tanzanian turn-around took less than seven years. In which time over 36moz of gold have been discovered and several of the original pioneers have either been bought out by the Majors e.g. Cluff by Ashanti (1996; $80m), Samax by Ashanti (1998;$140m) Sutton by Barrick (1999; US$280), Pangea by Barrick (2000; US$140) or they simply have a lot more competition today. Tanzania now produces more than 1.3moz per annum, putting it up there with Mali vying for the number three spot in terms of gold production after South Africa and Ghana. The multiparty democracy introduced in 1992 now ranks the country as one of the most stable in Africa and it's been projected that the government will receive over $100m per year from the gold mining industry by 2007. As in Tanzania political turn-arounds can be accelerated by a few geologically driven pioneers. As increasingly the most politically stable countries have been explored, even re-explored or simply reinterpreted, the successful juniors of the future are likely to be those who are first to identify the next political turn-around on the cards and already start to position themselves within the most prospective terrain and rapidly start to develop significant resources. Country risk: barrier or opportunity? (i.e. just another probability?) Most corporate Boards and their Executive Management would put country risk as a definite barrier to investment. They would generally refuse to consider that certain investments under difficult circumstances could be construed like options, with the price to pay (early stage exploration programs) quantitatively far closer to an option premium than full mine development undertaking. Nevertheless in other industries venture capital decisions are part of daily life and positioning into a new tech (sub)segment, many of which may well be earmarked to be written down or simply written off is a natural process. Country risk is not treated like venture risk. 'Ad-venture' risk it is called, and more recently, reputational risk has often become associated with it. The 'we can't risk our reputation' has become a significant post-cold-war barrier and the prolific expansion of NGOs during the same period when political, economic, social ethnico-regional environmental vacuums emerged or expanded, has clearly caused the emerging market landscape to fill up with obstacles sometimes justifiably so, It had to be as attractive as oil in Angola, Nigeria, or gas in Turkmenistan, to be worth braving certain storms. Obviously the smaller the organization the more resistant to such illusionary or selective reputational risk as it would turn out to be. Private vs. public finance An argument can be made that, very much like Samax benefited from seven years (1989-96) of a private equity situation, such mineral exploration adventures are indeed not suitable for public investment. Like venture capital or distress and reorganization funding, exploration adventures into new frontiers should be left to the wealthy or institutional investors' class. The argument goes that technology is better left to professional investment management, assisted by intimately experienced technical staff or advisors and that their selection process of write downs, restructurings and high multiple IPOs to eventually yield well above average annual returns. We have witnessed the shipwrecks when the floodgates to public funds were thrown open to start-up entrepreneurs, as well as the many fly by night and one day stands when everything was sold under the democratic 'dot.com' slogan by demagogue gatekeepers, disguised as analysts, at even the most prestigious investment banks who replaced the venture capitalists' hard-nosed technicians. Mining's long established public history However, our mining (and exploration) industry has more than 100 years of public market expertise, going back to times when technology was restricted to rail, tramways, and little more. Public issues included such risks as Imperial Russia, Colonial Africa and South East Asia, Imperial China, Peru and the Ottoman Empire to cite alternative 'country' situations, were all predominantly fixed income issuers. Canada and Australia had since taken over old-Europe's mining venture & finance role, the latter battered by country risk fall-out and socialist wariness of speculative capital and liberal entrepreneurship, the former boosted by domestic discoveries. South Africa continued its growth as a 'case apart'. Changing world, country risk outlook and the Mano River Union The cold war and a communist planned economy severely reduced the world investment map and socialist even nationalist policies elsewhere did little to boost investment opportunities. The world changed again when the Cold War was won and lost. The rights of the victors are being defined, or further refined. Meanwhile states with poor 1980s governance imploded in the world political vacuum of the 1990s. That decade was very much an intermezzo. A new order is being built from the fragmented chaos. It leaves little doubt that within the Mano River Union ('MRU'), Guinea continued to be ruled by a democratically elected strongman, possibly in some ways comparable to Ghana's Rawlings of the 1980s, while both Liberia and Sierra Leone had imploded under weak governance. Opportunistic forces were well prepared to fill the vacuum. Amazingly despite the 1996 elections in Sierra Leone, with military coups now fully UN sanctioned, lawlessness and banditry replaced them and it took a full 5 years to decide and then get rid of them. As The Guardian pointed out, based on recent experience in the Balkans, the rule of law is often the first victim of a power vacuum. In Liberia despite the 1997 elections, there was too little and dwindling world support for a government which exacerbated the extremes. Since mid 1999 pressures building around the solution to the Sierra Leone conflict have increasingly isolated the present (at time of writing) Liberian government, severely restricting assistance and development finance, and in turn economic activity. Assisted by smart sanctions, an externally supported rebellion and now indictment of its President the country eventually slid into a situation of ' pending change'. Both Sierra Leone and Liberia are cases of a return to fundamental values. Return possibly meaning 'for the very first time' in their history, with democracy having not been on the table during colonial times. Fundamental values are considered to include the rule of law, human rights, transparent governance, financial accountability, provision of education, basic infrastructure, economic development and hopefully multilateral defence forces that are neither ethnically nor nationally biased. One could only speculate what Europe's 20th century would have looked like had we created a single European Defence force at its onset. Nowhere in the world today is there a greater demand or more pressing need for these fundamental values than in Africa. The British Foreign Secretary on 30th April 03 described how they have been working with governments from across Africa to deliver a brighter future for the continent, that three years ago the people of Sierra Leone lived in a Hobbesian world, their future in the hands of brutal rebels and that today, thanks largely to British troops, Sierra Leone can reflect on successful democratic elections held in 2002, and look forward to a peaceful future. New political and economic landscape; MRU Rail and NEPAD Now therefore is the time to implement radically different long term development plans. Take as an example the MRU Rail ('Mano River Union Rail') project, to create a 21st century Panama-Canal-type of free zone to transfer Iron ores mined in Guinea to the Liberian coast for export. While requiring some rehabilitation much of the line already exists, stretching as it does the 267km from the former Iron ore mine at Nimba (Lamco/Liminco) that straddles the border between Liberia and Guinea, to the deep water Port of Buchanan in Liberia. The MRU Rail free zone would be monitored by a multilateral peacekeeping force constituted of MRU, Ecowas/Ecomog, UN and EU forces. Such a stabilizing force would be mandated say for two consecutive 25 year terms to monitor Buchanan Freeport and the railway, extended into Guinea. The MRU Rail would not only allow ''fast-track'' development of the Nimba (part owned by BHP BIlliton) and Simandou (Rio Tinto) deposits in Guinea (with estimated reserves of 300-600Mt and 3,000Mt respectively) by avoiding the long haulage to Guinea's Atlantic coast, but it would also result in the substantial expansion of the port at Buchanan and improved margins for the mining of lower grade ores in Liberia. In addition a branch line could possibly run from Liberia to Sierra Leone. The potential transportation of passengers and goods would be greatly enhanced. It could even eventually signal the advent of electricity as cheap west African gas is transported to Buchanan for further transformation and or distribution. The transformation to iron, like copper and bronze have often been a solid foundation of many ancient and recent civilizations. This global world with its free markets may have shifted cost competitive sources for steel products elsewhere, but trader-importer margins while substantially adding to the retail price often replace in-country value added. A case could possibly be made for a modest trial mill, using new technology and the marginal costs derived from the MRU Rail project, however anti-global this may all sound. Building on solid and lasting bi- & multi-lateral foundations such as the World Bank's MIGA, providing 'first loss' assumption, we should readily convince the private insurance market that such projects are far better than asbestos, auditors' liabilities and other hurricanes, allowing these projects the same credit rating and low fixed rate financing that was available a century ago, contributing to cost competitiveness and ultimate development. Though MRU Rail may resemble one of those forward looking project(ion)s, it may be closer than the eye would catch with good governance and stability not seen since 50 years or more, a reminder that the 1960s transition to free nations came on the heels of WW2, itself a successor to WW1, and the severe 1930s world economic crisis. Today we witness historically low interest rates. Major projects were developed on the back of buoyant equity markets and 4-6% long-term bonds, 100 years ago and before. It seems that the right maturity and conditions have been brought back to international markets after a century of independent nationalistic and socialistic views that impeded such large cross border projects. The time is right for 'Marshall'-like large-scale development, such as the MRU Rail. It would take just a tiny Marshall Plan to boost the MRU economies. Eventually such schemes when applied globally should set off an emerging markets and metals & mining cycle unwitnessed in the last 50 or even 100 years. Under the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD), progressive African governments are embarking on such a path of political and economic reform. http: //www.avmedia.at/nepad/indexgb.html We believe the clear turn-around of Sierra Leone, and the imminent arrangements put in place to establish a showcase in Liberia of what free and fair elections are really about, combined with smooth transition whenever Guinea's leader chooses to retire from office, and would clearly move the MRU towards prime NEPAD candidacy. MRU Rail a long term secure multi-country project would indeed fit many of NEPAD's stated objectives and long term sustained development goals. The regional Archaean Craton and its potential Still it would not have made any sense for Mano to position itself taking MRU country risks in 1996 if it weren't for the MRU's great geology and Mano's pre-pioneering entry. Indeed it was at the onset of a downcycle for commodities, metals and eventually a near-identity crisis for gold, or what appeared like one. The new ECB, Europe's Central Bank, with fresh forward looking views on the % role of gold ('if any'), the Swiss selling for continually open-ended reasons, the IMF giving consideration to the sale of gold to assist non-gold-producing LDCs, not to mention the Australian treason, then this Thai triggered Asian tidal currency and confidence wave, followed by Russia's necessary adjustment to phase one of revolutionary capitalism, and the aforementioned 1990s failures on the heels of 1980s lack of minimal governance (like DRC's fault line), all those didn't bode for grassroots gold exploration in the MRU. Anything might have seemed a better idea: base metals in Spain, tantalite anywhere, virtual mineral targets in prime countries, or, lightning dotcom exits. Therefore going for the right geology often has been the wiser long-term advice, provided short-term survival is possible. Rich geology also allows for sharing to find compromise. It is tough to incorporate a free carry for the host government when a marginal project and low commodity prices combine against reasonable net present values, resulting in zero-development. Like comparable Archaean terrain across the globe, the MRU sub-region has been injected with diamondiferous kimberlite rock. Unlike in Canada, which increasingly seems to monopolize world diamond exploration budgets, the question is not one of relying solely on indicator minerals. Erosion has delivered from Sierra Leone, south east Guinea, and west Liberia some of the greatest stars of the world's diamond collections. Our diamond exploration is barely three years old, but has already delivered three diamondiferous kimberlite pipes in west Liberia, which at up to 4ha in size are regionally significant and our early analytical work suggests that they are likely to have high tonnage and moderate diamond grade, while many more occurrences are already singled out to be discovered. The particularly well-targeted Kono licences next to Koidu, near Yengema, have advanced the definition of high grade kimberlite dykes in Sierra Leone. The easy access to reasonably low capex for development should potentially result in very decent returns for shareholders within a more reasonable time frame comparative to the extreme north of Canada. In terms of geology and potential, parallels can be drawn with the Lake Victoria Goldfields of Tanzania, mentioned earlier. Already, after just three seasons of limited drilling in Liberia, Mano can lay claim to close to 1 million ounces of gold within an expanding portfolio of high quality potentially world class targets with high grades and simple metallurgy, such as KGL and Weaju. The Archaean greenstone belts which underlie west Liberia, as well as Sierra Leone and parts of south east Guinea, have been largely unexplored for gold and diamonds with historical emphasis having been on bauxite, rutile and iron ores. Breakthrough discoveries especially when supported by cyclical upswings (following on the heels of industry consolidation) can produce big and small miracles providing the motivation exists to invest in this business. A solid partnership with central and local Government Mano has taken a fully constructive approach and has consistently built solid, transparent and very professional relationships in the classified as 'risky' MRU countries of Liberia and Sierra Leone. While, not unlike California in its early days, adventurers, crooks and preachers are often the first to arrive in new territories, with the brave and serious waiting along the east coast just lending some venture money, Mano pioneered undertaking exploration every bit as professional as in any other explorer in any other country in the world. Liberia and Sierra Leone have proven to be very friendly environments with technically able people who are eager to work and contribute to what we hope will become great achievements for their respective countries. Mano has worked quite actively with regional and local authorities wherever it explores and contributed to the well-being and health of its local staff, local artisanal miners and their extended village families in many ways. Our Mano Foundation will continue to seek further ways to improve life in the MRU countries. Increasingly government schemes aim to decentralize revenue receipts to the regions, for local development; much can be done to build a sustainable diversified economy around a mine (there are many proven historical examples) and on the back of such scheme, Mano encourages volunteer work within a joint community role between elders and mine managers. A cycle for success-stories and more competitive access to funding When I first wrote a co-Chairman letter in 1999, I declared Y2K a turn-around year for our industry to outperform tech stocks. Since 2001 with evaporating millennophile 'u4ei', it did. Forces conspired against our exploration and mining industry. A natural conspiracy built of post-cold-war new-order and a left-of-centre pursuit of liberal policies combined with large capital, flowing like tsunamis, affected most markets too illiquid to handle such vast hot 'hedge funds'. Initial political and legal upheavals as to-be-expected in newly free world territories gave a cold-showering surprise to pioneers. Further an exaggerated cyclical downturn depressed metal prices and caused majors to cut back exploration expenditure year on year. Then Bre-X cut off yet another source of junior exploration money and finally the great internet-telecoms casino, intertwined with the converging story took all the speculative capital euphorically for its own account - admittedly some of the speculative overflow came our way. As long as the bets were in favour of the street investor and day player, the techs were formidable competition for risk capital. In this 'chaotech' world, chaos seemed to continuously create opportunity as long as there was no clear sign of ultimate victors. This new century's ultimate battle of convergence left many losers with destruction of 'value', hopefully some of that will be regained. Success stories work like big lottery prizes. Lots of cash chases the few industries where the jackpots may be found. Even if it will forever be tough to outperform the dotcoms of the late 1990s, we hope there will be several genuine success stories in the exploration industry over coming few years. I look forward to a great bull cycle for our industry, continued consolidation giving way to genuine interest in what companies like Mano have been carefully and so far quietly assembling and sustained peace and development in our three MRU countries as they eventually join a politically stable club of west African nations. With all that, Mano's portfolio should witness the emerging discovery of high grade gold and kimberlite diamond mines, for the benefit of all economic agents. According to a recent analyst statement "The reality is that the better assets carry some risk". Guy E.
