RESOURCE AND RESERVE ESTIMATES
 
The terms “mineral reserve,” “proven mineral reserve” and “probable mineral reserve” used in our disclosure are Canadian mining terms that are defined in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) under the guidelines set out in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) Best Practice Guidelines for the Estimation of Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves (the “CIM Standards”), adopted by the CIM Council on December 11, 2005. These definitions differ from the definitions in the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC” or the “Commission”) Industry Guide 7 under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Under Industry Guide 7 standards, a “final” or “bankable” feasibility study is required to report reserves, the three-year historical average price is used in any reserve or cash flow analysis to designate reserves and the primary environmental analysis or report must be filed with the appropriate governmental authority.
 
Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the Commission, and reserve and resource information contained herein may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “resource” does not equate to the term “reserves”. Under U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. The Commission’s disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” or “inferred mineral resources” or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute “reserves” by U.S. standards in documents filed with the Commission. U.S. investors should also understand that “inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimated “inferred mineral resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” exists or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of “contained ounces” in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the Commission normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves” by the Commission’s standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. The requirements of NI 43-101 for identification of “reserves” are also not the same as those of the Commission. Accordingly, information concerning descriptions of mineralization and resources contained in this Annual Report on Form 20-F or in the documents incorporated by reference may not be comparable to information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the Commission.
 
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
Certain statements in this document constitute “forward-looking statements” under applicable securities laws.  Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “expect,” and “intend,” and statements that an action or event “may,” “might,” “could,” or “should,” be taken or occur, or other similar expressions. Forward looking statements contained in this document include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to: (i) the estimation of inferred and indicated mineral resources; (ii) details and goals of exploration activities; (iii) estimations of future costs and expenditures; (iv) currency fluctuations; (v) requirements for additional capital and the sufficiency of working capital; (vi) government regulation of mining operations; (vii) environmental risks; (viii) unanticipated reclamation expenses; and (ix) increases in mineral resource estimates. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees or predictions of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control and which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or other future events, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.  Such factors include, among others, the following risks:
 
 
·
the risks associated with outstanding litigation, if any;
 
 
·
risks associated with project development;

·
the need for additional financing;
 
 
·
operational risks associated with mining and mineral processing, including risks related to accidents, equipment breakdowns, labor disputes or other unanticipated difficulties with or interruptions in operations which may or may not be insured;
 
 
·
fluctuations in metal prices;
 
 
·
title matters;
 
 
·
environmental liability claims and insurance;
 
 
·
reliance on key personnel;
 
 
·
the receipt of necessary regulatory approvals;
 
 
·
the potential for conflicts of interest among certain officers, directors or promoters with certain other projects;
 
 
·
the absence of dividends;
 
 
·
currency fluctuations;
 
 
·
competition;
 
 
·
dilution;
 
 
·
the volatility of our common share price and volume;
 
 
·
tax consequences to U.S. shareholders;
 
 
·
risks related to our being subject to the penny stock rules;
 
 
·
risks related to our being a foreign private issuer; and
 
 
·
risks related to our possibly being a passive foreign investment company.
 
Forward-looking information and forward-looking statements are in addition based on various assumptions including, without limitation, the expectations and beliefs of management, the assumed long term price of commodities; that the Company can access financing, appropriate equipment and sufficient labour availability and that the political environment will continue to support the development and operation of mining projects.  Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in forward-looking statements.  Some of the important risks and uncertainties that could affect forward-looking statements are described further in “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors.”  Accordingly, readers are advised not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The Company does not intend to update forward-looking statements or information, except as may be required by applicable law. Except as required by applicable regulations or by law, we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

3.A.           Selected Financial Data
 
Our selected financial data for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011 and 2010 was derived from our financial statements that have been audited by Davidson & Company LLP, independent Chartered Accountants, as indicated in their audit reports.  Davidson & Company LLP is a member of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants.
 
The selected financial data should be read in conjunction with and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
 
To date, we have not generated sufficient cash flow from operations to fund ongoing operational requirements and cash commitments.  We have financed our operations principally through the sale of our equity securities.  While we believe we have sufficient capital and liquidity to finance current operations, nevertheless, our ability to continue operations is dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing.  See “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors.”
 
The information for years ended April 30, 2014, 2013, 2012 and 2011 in the following table is derived from our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).

Risk Factors
 
We are subject to a number of risks due to the nature of our business, including our present exploration state.  The following describes the material risks that could affect us.
 
There has been significant economic uncertainty since the second half of 2008 and it has affected the Company’s operations.
 
The recent unprecedented events in global financial markets have had a profound impact on the global economy. Many industries, including the mining industry, are impacted by these market conditions.  Some of the key impacts of the current financial market turmoil include contraction in credit markets resulting in a widening of credit risk, devaluations and high volatility in global equity, commodity, foreign exchange and precious metal markets, and a lack of market liquidity. A continued or worsened slowdown in the financial markets or other economic conditions, including but not limited to, consumer spending, employment rates, business conditions, inflation, fuel and energy costs, consumer debt levels, lack of available credit, the state of the financial markets, interest rates, and tax rates may adversely affect the Company’s growth and profitability.  Specifically:
 
 
    the global credit/liquidity crisis could impact the cost and availability of financing and the Company’s overall liquidity;
 
 
    the volatility of mineral prices would impact the Company’s revenues, profits, losses and cash flow potential;
 
 
    volatile energy prices, commodity and consumables prices and currency exchange rates would impact the Company’s production costs; and
 
 
    the devaluation and volatility of global stock markets would impact the valuation of the Company’s equity and other securities.
 
These factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. As a result, the Company will consider its plans and options carefully in fiscal 2014.
 
No known reserves
 
Our properties are in the exploration stage and are without a known body of mineral reserves.
 
We have no mineral producing properties at this time. Only those mineral deposits that we can economically and legally extract or produce, based on a comprehensive evaluation of cost, grade, recovery and other factors, are considered “reserves”. We have not defined or delineated any proven or probable reserves on any of our properties. Although the mineralized material and mineralized deposit estimates included herein have been carefully prepared by us, or, in some instances have been prepared, reviewed or verified by independent mining experts, these amounts are estimates only and no assurance can be given that any particular level of recovery of uranium, vanadium, copper, gold, base metals and other minerals from mineralized material will in fact be realized or that an identified mineralized deposit will ever qualify as a commercially mineable (or viable) reserve.
 
Our planned exploration programs may not result in profitable commercial mining operations
 
Our operations involve exploration, and there is no guarantee that any of our activities will result in commercial production of any mineral deposits.  The exploration for and development of mineral deposits involves significant financial and other risks which even a combination of careful evaluation, experience and knowledge may not eliminate. Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable deposits.  Major expenses are required to locate and establish mineral reserves, to develop metallurgical processes, and to construct mining and processing facilities at a particular site. Our planned exploration programs may not result in a profitable commercial mining operation.  Whether a mineral deposit will be commercially viable depends on a number of factors, some of which are: the particular attributes of the deposit, such as quantity and quality of the minerals,
 
 

 
6

 

costs and efficiency of the recovery methods that can be employed; proximity to infrastructure; financing costs; mineral prices, which are highly cyclical; and government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land  tenure, land use, importing and exporting of minerals, and environmental protection.  The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted but could have a material adverse effect upon our operations and/or our ability to receive an adequate return on our invested capital.  There is no certainty that our expenditures made towards the search and evaluation of uranium, vanadium, copper, gold, base metals and other minerals result in discoveries of mineral resources, mineral reserves or any other mineral occurrences, or in profitable commercial mining operations.
 
Mining operations generally involve a high degree of risk
 
Our operations are subject to all the hazards and risks normally encountered in the exploration, development and production of uranium and other minerals, including environmental pollution, accidents or spills, industrial accidents, labor disputes, changes in the regulatory environment, natural phenomena, unusual and unexpected geologic formations, seismic activity, rock bursts, cave-ins, flooding and other conditions involved in the drilling and removal of material, any of which could result in damage to, or destruction of, mines and other producing facilities, damage to life or property, environmental damage, delays in or cessation of production, exploration or development, monetary losses and cost increases which could make us uncompetitive, and could lead to possible legal liability. Although adequate precautions to minimize risk will be taken, mining operations are subject to hazards such as equipment failure or failure of retaining dams around tailings disposal areas which may result in environmental pollution and consequent liability.  In addition, due to the radioactive nature of the materials handled in uranium mining, applicable regulatory requirements result in additional costs that must be incurred.
 
Our resource estimates may not be reliable
 
There is no certainty that any of our mineral resources will be economically mineable. Until a deposit is actually mined and processed the quantity of mineral resources and grades must be considered as estimates only.  Valid estimates made at a given time may significantly change when new information becomes available. In addition, the quantity of mineral resources may vary depending on, among other things, metal prices.  Any material change in quantity of mineral resources, grade or stripping ratio may affect the economic viability of our properties or any project we undertake. In addition, there can be no assurance that mineral or other metal recoveries in small scale laboratory tests will be duplicated in a larger scale test under on-site conditions or during production.
 
Fluctuations in prices of uranium, vanadium, copper, gold, base metals and other minerals, results of drilling, metallurgical testing and production and the evaluation of studies, reports and plans subsequent to the date of any estimate may require revision of such estimate. Any material reductions in estimates of mineral resources could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 
We rely on a limited number of properties
 
Our only properties of interest are currently the Central Mineral Belt properties in Labrador, and the Bootheel property in Wyoming, USA. As a result, unless we acquire additional property interests, any adverse developments affecting these properties could have a material adverse effect upon our business and would materially and adversely affect our potential mineral resource production, profitability, financial performance and results of operations.
 
Competition from other energy sources and public acceptance of nuclear energy may affect the demand for uranium
 
Nuclear energy competes with other sources of energy, including oil, natural gas, coal and hydro-electricity.  These other energy sources are to some extent interchangeable with nuclear energy, particularly over the longer term.  Lower prices of oil, natural gas, coal and hydro-electricity may result in lower demand for uranium concentrate and uranium conversion services.  Furthermore, the growth of the uranium and nuclear power industry beyond its current level will depend upon continued and increased acceptance of nuclear technology as a means of generating electricity.  Because of unique political, technological and environmental factors that affect the nuclear industry, the
 


 
7

 

industry is subject to public opinion risks which could have an adverse impact on the demand for nuclear power and increase the regulation of the nuclear power industry.
 
We face strong competition for the acquisition of mining properties
 
The mining industry is competitive in all of its phases. We face strong competition from other mining companies in connection with the acquisition of properties producing, or capable of producing, uranium and precious metals.  Many of these companies have greater financial resources, operational experience and technical capabilities than we do.  As a result of this competition, we may be unable to maintain or acquire attractive mining properties on terms we consider acceptable, if at all. Consequently, our revenues, operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
 
We do not have a history of mineral production or operations
 
There is no assurance that commercial quantities of minerals will be discovered at our current properties or any future properties, nor is there any assurance that our exploration programs thereon will yield any positive results.  Even if commercial quantities of minerals are discovered, there can be no assurance that any of our properties will ever be brought to a stage where mineral resources can profitably be produced thereon.  Factors which may limit our ability to produce mineral resources from our properties include, but are not limited to, the price of the mineral resources which are being explored for, availability of additional capital and financing and the nature of any mineral deposits.
 
We do not have an extensive operating history and there can be no assurance of our ability to operate our projects profitably in the future.
 
Our insurance will not cover all the potential risks associated with our operations
 
Our business is subject to a number of risks and hazards generally, including adverse environmental conditions, industrial accidents, labor disputes, unusual or unexpected geological conditions, ground or slope failures, cave-ins, changes in the regulatory environment and natural phenomena such as inclement weather conditions, floods and earthquakes.  Such occurrences could result in damage to mineral properties or production facilities, personal injury or death, environmental damage to our properties or other properties, delays in mining, monetary losses and possible legal liability.
 
Our insurance will not cover all the potential risks associated with a mining company’s operations.  We may also be unable to maintain insurance to cover these risks at economically feasible premiums.  Insurance coverage may not be available or may not be adequate to cover any resulting liability. Moreover, there are risks against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure.  Insurance against risks such as environmental pollution or other hazards as a result of exploration and production is not generally available to us or to other companies in the uranium mining industry. We might also become subject to liability for pollution or other hazards which we may not be insured against or which we may elect not to insure against because of premium costs or other reasons. Losses from these events may cause substantial delays and require us to incur significant costs that could have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition, results of operations, competitive position and potentially our financial viability.
 
Our operations are subject to environmental regulation
 
All phases of our operations are subject to environmental regulation in the various jurisdictions in which we operate or may operate in the future. These regulations mandate, among other things, the maintenance of air and water quality standards and land reclamation. They also set forth limitations on the generation, transportation, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous waste.  Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner that will require stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects, and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees.  There is no assurance that future changes in environmental regulation, if any, will not adversely affect our operations. Environmental hazards may exist on the properties on which we hold interests

which are unknown to us at present and which have been caused by previous or existing owners or operators of the properties.
 
Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment, or remedial actions.  Parties engaged in mining operations or in the exploration or development of mineral properties may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of the mining activities and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of applicable laws or regulations.
 
Our operations are dependent on adequate infrastructure
 
Mining, processing, development and exploration activities depend, to one degree or another, on adequate infrastructure.  Reliable roads, bridges, power sources and water supply are important determinants, which affect capital and operating costs.  Unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, sabotage, government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of such infrastructure could adversely affect our operations, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Our properties may be subject to undetected title defects
 
It is possible there may still be undetected title defects affecting our properties. Title insurance generally is not available, and our ability to ensure that we have obtained secure claim to individual mineral properties or mining concessions may be severely constrained. Furthermore, we have not conducted surveys of the claims in which we hold interests and, therefore, the precise area and location of such claims may be in doubt. Accordingly, our properties may be subject to prior unregistered liens, agreements, transfers or claims, and title may be affected by, among other things, undetected defects which could have a material adverse impact on our operations.  In addition, we may be unable to operate our properties as permitted or to enforce our rights with respect to our properties.
 
We may be subject to additional costs for land reclamation
 
It is difficult to determine the exact amounts which will be required to complete all land reclamation activities in connection with our properties.  Reclamation bonds and other forms of financial assurance represent only a portion of the total amount of money that will be spent on reclamation activities over the life of a mine.  Accordingly, it may be necessary to revise planned expenditures and operating plans in order to fund reclamation activities.  Such costs may have a material adverse impact upon our financial condition and results of operations.
 
The inability to obtain necessary permits would adversely affect our ability to operate our business
 
We may not receive the necessary permits or receive them on acceptable terms, if at all, in order to conduct further exploration and to develop our properties.  The failure to obtain such permits, or delays in obtaining such permits, could adversely affect our operations.
 
Government approvals, approval of aboriginal people and permits are currently and may in the future be required in connection with our operations. To the extent such approvals are required and not obtained; we may be curtailed or prohibited from continuing our mining operations or from proceeding with planned exploration or development of mineral properties.
 
We will require additional capital for our operations
 
The development and exploration of our properties will require substantial additional financing.  Failure to obtain sufficient financing may result in the delay or indefinite postponement of exploration, development or production on our properties or even a loss of property interest. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available when needed or that, if available, the terms of financing such capital will be acceptable to us.  In addition, any future financing may be dilutive to our existing shareholders.

Future production from our mining properties, if any, is dependent upon the prices of uranium, vanadium, copper, gold, base metals and other minerals being adequate to make these properties economically viable
 
Mineral and base metals prices received, if any, could be such that our properties cannot be mined at a profit.  The price of our common shares, and our financial results and exploration, development and mining activities may in the future be significantly and adversely affected by declines in the price of uranium, vanadium, copper, gold, base metals and other minerals. The price of uranium, vanadium, copper, gold, base metals and other minerals fluctuates widely and is affected by numerous factors beyond our control such as the sale or purchase of commodities by various central banks and financial institutions, interest rates, exchange rates, inflation or deflation, fluctuation in the value of the United States dollar and foreign currencies, global and regional supply and demand, the political and economic conditions and production costs of major mineral-producing countries throughout the world, and the cost of  substitutes, inventory levels and carrying charges.  With respect to uranium, such factors include the demand for nuclear power, political and economic conditions in uranium producing and consuming countries, uranium supply from secondary sources, uranium production levels and costs of production.  Future serious price declines in the market value of uranium, vanadium, copper, gold, base metals and other minerals could cause development of and commercial production from our properties to be impracticable.  Depending on the price of uranium, vanadium, copper, gold, base metals and other minerals, cash flow from mining operations may not be sufficient and we could be forced to discontinue production and may lose our interest in, or may be forced to sell, some of our properties.  Future production from our mining properties, if any, is dependent upon the prices of uranium, vanadium, copper, gold, base metals and other minerals being adequate to make these properties economically viable.
 
In addition to adversely affecting our reserve estimates, if any, and our financial condition, declining commodity prices can impact operations by requiring a reassessment of the feasibility of a particular project. Such a reassessment may be the result of a management decision or may be required under financing arrangements related to a particular project. Even if a project is ultimately determined to be economically viable, the need to conduct such a reassessment may cause substantial delays or may interrupt operations until the reassessment can be completed.
 
Exchange rate fluctuations may effectively increase our costs of exploration and production
 
Exchange rate fluctuations may affect the costs that we incur in our operations.  Uranium, vanadium, copper, gold, base metals and other minerals are generally sold in U.S. dollars and our costs are incurred principally in Canadian dollars.  We also maintain a mineral exploration project in the United States that require payments to be made in U.S. dollars. The appreciation of non-U.S. dollar currencies against the U.S. dollar can increase the cost of exploration and production in U.S. dollar terms, which could materially and adversely affect our profitability, results of operations and financial condition.
 
Our operations are subject to extensive governmental regulation that may adversely affect our operating costs
 
Our mining, processing, development and mineral exploration activities are subject to various laws governing prospecting, development, production, taxes, labor standards and occupational health, mine safety, toxic substances, land use, water use, land claims of local people, and other matters.  Although our exploration and development activities are currently carried out in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations, new rules and regulations may be enacted or existing rules and regulations may be applied in a manner which could limit or curtail production or development.  Amendments to current laws and regulations governing operations and activities of mining and milling or more stringent implementation thereof could have a substantial adverse impact on our operations. Worldwide demand for uranium is directly tied to the demand for energy produced by the nuclear electric industry, which is also subject to extensive government regulations and policies.
 
Amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing operations and activities of mining and exploration companies, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a material adverse impact on our operations and cause increases in exploration expenses, capital expenditures or production costs, or reduction in levels of production at producing properties, or require abandonment or delays in development of new mining properties.

The market price of our common shares may experience substantial volatility
 
In recent years, the securities markets in the United States and Canada have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many mineral exploration companies have experienced wide fluctuations in price which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies.  The price of our common shares is also likely to be significantly affected by short-term changes in prices of uranium, vanadium, copper, gold, base metals and other minerals, or in our financial condition or results of operations as reflected in our quarterly earnings reports.  Other factors unrelated to our performance that may have an effect on the price of our common shares include the following: the extent of analytical coverage available to investors concerning our business may be limited if investment banks with research capabilities do not follow our securities; lessening in trading volume and general market interest in our securities may affect an investor’s ability to trade significant numbers of our common shares; the size of our public float may limit the ability of some institutions to invest in our securities; and a substantial decline in the price of our common shares that persists for a significant period of time could cause our securities to be delisted from such exchange, further reducing market liquidity.
 
We have not paid dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future
 
No dividends on our common shares have been paid to date as we have no earnings. We currently plan to retain all future earnings and other cash resources, if any, for the future operation and development of our business.  Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors after taking into account many factors, including our operating results, financial condition, and current and anticipated cash needs.
 
Future sales of common shares by existing shareholders could adversely affect the trading price of our common shares
 
Sales of a large number of our common shares in the public markets, or the potential for such sales, could decrease the trading price of the common shares and could impair our ability to raise capital through future sales of common shares.
 
We are dependent upon the services of our key executives
 
We are dependent upon the services of key executives, including our directors and a small number of highly skilled and experienced executives and personnel. Due to our relatively small size, the unanticipated and/or unplanned loss of our Chief Executive Officer or our Chairman or our inability to attract and retain additional highly-skilled employees may adversely affect our future operations.
 
Our directors and officers have certain conflicts of interest
 
Certain of our directors and officers also serve as directors and/or officers of other companies involved in natural resource exploration and development and, consequently, there exists the possibility for such directors and officers to be in a position of conflict.
 
We have no positive cash flow and no recent history of earnings and we are dependent upon public and private contributions of equity to obtain capital in order to sustain our operations
 
None of our properties have advanced to the commercial production stage and we have no history of earnings or positive cash flow from operations.  Our cumulative loss, as of the year ended April 30, 2014 determined in accordance with IFRS is approximately $107 million.  We do not know if we will ever generate material revenue from mining operations or if we will ever achieve self-sustaining commercial mining operations.  Historically, the only source of funds available to us has been through the sale of our equity securities. Any future additional equity financing would cause dilution to current shareholders.
 


 
11

 

Dilution through employee, director and consultant stock options and warrants could adversely affect our shareholders by decreasing shareholder value
 
Because our success is highly dependent upon our employees, we have granted to some or all of our key employees, directors and consultants options to purchase common shares as non-cash incentives. In addition we have also issued share purchase units and warrants to investors and brokers in connection with equity financings. To the extent that significant numbers of such options, warrants and share purchase units may be granted and exercised, the interests of our other shareholders may be diluted.
 
As of August 18, 2014 we had 274,588 purchase options, and no share purchase warrants outstanding.  If all of these securities were exercised, the number of common shares issued and outstanding would increase from 6,578,035 to 6,852,623.  This represents an increase of 4.18% in the number of shares issued and outstanding and would result in some dilution to current shareholders.
 
The Company is subject to the SEC’s penny stock rules, and the risks associated with penny stock classification could affect the marketability of our equity securities and shareholders could find it difficult to sell their common shares
 
Given that the trading price of our common shares on OTC Market Group’s OTCQB Marketplace is less than US $5.00 per share, our common stock is subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”).  The SEC has adopted the penny stock rules to regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks.  Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than US $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange.
 
Transaction costs associated with purchases and sales of penny stocks are likely to be higher than those for other securities.  The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market.  The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.  The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.
 
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.  These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our equity securities in the United States and shareholders may find it more difficult to sell their shares.
 
U.S. investors may not be able to enforce their civil liabilities against us or our directors, controlling persons and officers
 
It may be difficult to bring and enforce suits against us.  We are incorporated in the province of British Columbia under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).  The majority of our directors and officers are residents of Canada, and all or substantial portions of their assets are located outside of the United States, predominately in Canada.  As a result, it may be difficult for U.S. holders of our common shares to effect service of process on these persons within the United States or to realize in the United States upon judgments rendered against them.  In addition, a shareholder should not assume that the courts of Canada (i) would enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions against us or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws or other laws of the United States, or (ii) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against us or such persons predicated upon the U.S. federal securities laws or other laws of the United States.
 

 
12

 

However, U.S. laws would generally be enforced by a Canadian court provided that those laws are not contrary to Canadian public policy, are not foreign penal laws or laws that deal with taxation or the taking of property by a foreign government and provided that they are in compliance with applicable Canadian legislation regarding the limitation of actions.  Also, a Canadian court would generally recognize a judgment obtained in a U.S. Court except, for example, where:
 
a)
the U.S. court that rendered the judgment had no jurisdiction according to applicable Canadian law;
 
b)
the judgment was subject to ordinary remedy (appeal, judicial review and any other judicial proceeding which renders the judgment not final, conclusive or enforceable under the laws of the applicable state) or not final, conclusive or enforceable under the laws of the applicable state;
 
c)
the judgment was obtained by fraud or in any manner contrary to natural justice or rendered in contravention of fundamental principles of procedure; or
 
d)
a dispute between the same parties, based on the same subject matter has given rise to a judgment rendered in a Canadian court or has been decided in a third country and the judgment meets the necessary conditions for recognition in a Canadian court.
 
As a "foreign private issuer”, we are exempt from the Section 14 proxy rules and Section 16 reporting rules under the Exchange Act which may result in shareholders having less complete and timely data
 
The submission of proxy and annual shareholder meeting information (prepared to Canadian standards) on Form 6-K may result in shareholders having less complete and timely data than if we were subject to the SEC’s domestic issuer proxy rules under Section 14 of the Exchange Act.  The exemption from Section 16 rules under the Exchange Act that require the reporting of acquisitions and disposition of our equity securities by our officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders also may result in shareholders having less data.
 
If we are characterized as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”), our shareholders may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.
 
We have not made a determination as to whether we are considered a PFIC as such term is defined in the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the current tax year and any prior tax years.  A non-U.S. corporation generally will be considered a PFIC of any tax year if either (1) at least 75% of its gross income is passive income or (2) at least 50% of the value of its assets (based on an average of the quarterly values of the assets during a taxable year) is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income.
 
In general, if we are or become a PFIC, any gain recognized on the sale of our common stock and any “excess distributions” (as specifically defined in the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986) paid on the common stock must be ratably allocated to each day in a U.S. taxpayer’s holding period for the securities.  The amount of any such gain or excess distribution allocated to prior years of such U.S. taxpayer’s holding period for the common stock generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the highest tax applicable to ordinary income in each such prior year, and the U.S. taxpayer will be required to pay interest on the resulting tax liability for each such prior year, calculated as if such tax liability had been due in each such prior year.
 
Litigation

Due to the nature of our business, we may become subject to regulatory investigations, claims, lawsuits and other proceedings in the ordinary course of its business. The results of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty due to the uncertainty inherent in litigation, including the effects of discovery of new evidence or advancement of new legal theories, the difficulty of predicting decisions of judges and juries and the possibility that decisions may be reversed on appeal. There can be no assurances that these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business.

ITEM 4.
INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY
 
4.A.           History and Development of the Company
 
Introduction
 
Jet Metal Corp. (formerly Crosshair Energy Corporation) (the “Company” or “Jet Metal”) was incorporated as a specially limited company pursuant to the Company Act (British Columbia) (replaced by the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) effective March 29, 2004) on September 2, 1966 under the name Shasta Mines & Oil Ltd. (Non-Personal Liability).  We converted from a Private Company to a Public Company on February 20, 1967.  On February 4, 1975 we changed our name to International Shasta Resources Ltd. (Non-Personal Liability) and consolidated our share capital on the basis of one new share for five old shares and increased our share capital from 600,000 common shares to 3,000,000 common shares.  On September 14, 1977 we increased our authorized share capital from 3,000,000 common shares to 5,000,000 common shares.  On April 5, 1982, we increased our authorized share capital from 5,000,000 common shares to 10,000,000 common shares by Special Resolution.  On March 5, 1986 we converted from a Specially Limited Company into a Limited Company under the name of International Shasta Resources Ltd. and increased our authorized share capital from 10,000,000 common shares to 30,000,000 common shares.  On May 20, 1994, we changed our name to Consolidated Shasta Resources Inc. and consolidated our share capital on the basis of one new share for ten old shares and increased our authorized share capital from 3,000,000 common shares to 20,000,000 common shares.  On November 23, 1994 we changed our name to Lima Gold Corporation and on September 21, 1999 we changed our name to International Lima Resources Corp. and consolidated our share capital on the basis of one new share for three old shares and increased our authorized share capital from 6,666,667 common shares to 20,000,000 common shares.  On November 5, 2003 we increased our authorized share capital from 20,000,000 common shares to 100,000,000 common shares.  On March 1, 2004 we changed our name to Crosshair Exploration & Mining Corp.  On June 1, 2004 we replaced our Memorandum with a Notice of Articles as required by the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). On March 11, 2005 we changed our authorized capital to an unlimited number of common shares.  On December 15, 2010, we consolidated our share capital on the basis of one new share for four old shares.  On October 28, 2011 we changed our name from Crosshair Exploration & Mining Corp. to Crosshair Energy Corporation.  On September 17, 2013, we consolidated our share capital on the basis of one new share for ten old shares and changed our name from Crosshair Energy Corporation to Jet Metal Corp.

Our fiscal year ends April 30th.
 
Our common shares first began trading on the Vancouver Stock Exchange under the name Shasta Mines & Oil Ltd. on March 14, 1969.  Our common shares began trading on the TSX Venture Exchange with the trading symbol “CXX” on March 1, 2004.  On February 10, 2006, we graduated to Tier 1 on the TSX Venture Exchange.  On May 7, 2007, our common shares began trading on the American Stock Exchange (now NYSE MKT) with the trading symbol “CXZ.”  On May 12, 2008, our common shares began trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange with the trading symbol “CXX” and ceased trading on the TSX Venture Exchange. On June 18, 2013 the Company filed a Form 25 – Notice of Removal from Listing and/or Registration under section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  Our common shares were voluntarily delisted from NYSE MKT on July 1, 2013 and began trading on the OTC Market Group’s OTCQB Marketplace on July 1, 2013 with the trading symbol “CRHRF”. On October 22, 2013, our trading symbol on
 


 
14

 

OTCQB was changed to “JETMF” to reflect the Company’s name change to Jet Metal Corp. On January 17, 2014, our common shares were voluntarily delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange and on January 20, 2014 began trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the trading symbol “JET”.
 
On March 29, 2004, the Company Act (British Columbia) (the “Company Act”) was replaced by the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “BCBCA”).  Accordingly, we are now subject to the BCBCA and are no longer governed by the Company Act.  There are a number of differences under the BCBCA, which differences are designed to provide greater flexibility and efficiency for British Columbia companies.  
 
Under the BCBCA, every company incorporated under the Company Act was required to complete a mandatory transition rollover under the BCBCA to substitute a Notice of Articles for its Memorandum within two years of March 29, 2004.  On June 1, 2004 we replaced our Memorandum with a Notice of Articles as is required by the BCBCA.  The only information contained in the Notice of Articles is the authorized share structure of the Company, the name of the Company, the address of the registered and records office of the Company, and the names and addresses of the directors of the Company.
 
On March 31, 2009, the Company and Target Exploration and Mining Corp. (“Target”) successfully closed a plan of arrangement whereby the Company acquired all the outstanding common shares of Target and Target has become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  Target shareholders received approximately 14.7 million common shares of the Company (1.2 Company shares for each Target common share outstanding) with an estimated market value of approximately $2.6 million. In addition, each outstanding Target warrant and stock option which gave the holder the right to acquire common shares of Target was exchanged for a warrant or stock option which gave the holder the right to acquire common shares of the Company on the exchange ratio of 1.2 Company shares for each Target warrant or stock option exercised, with all other terms of such warrants and options (such as term and expiry) remaining unchanged.  As a result of the acquisition of Target, the Company acquired an interest in the Bootheel and Sinbad projects in Wyoming and Utah, USA respectively.  During fiscal 2010, we allowed all 62 mineral claims on the Sinbad property located in Emery County, Utah, to lapse, and the State Lease with the State of Utah was not renewed.
 
Property Acquisitions
 
Since the beginning of fiscal 2014, we have acquired no additional properties.
 
Property Terminations
 
Since the beginning of fiscal 2014, we have dropped a total of 253 mineral claims from the CMB project. In addition, the remaining 70 claims that constituted the Victoria Lake project were dropped as the original vendor did not want the property returned to him. The Company also terminated its Moran Lake Co-ownership agreement and returned a total of 546 mineral claims to the original vendor.  With respect to our Wyoming properties, the Company has also dropped the 107 claims and one State lease that constituted the Buck Point property, as well as 86 claims from the Bootheel property.  The Company has reviewed and has impaired its exploration and evaluation assets accordingly in its financial statements to reflect the above developments. 
 
Capital Expenditures
 
Our capital expenditures, excluding property, plant and equipment, for the last three fiscal years were as follows:

4.B.           Business Overview
 
Historical Corporate Development
 
We are a mineral exploration company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties (primarily uranium, base and precious metals).  We do not have any producing mineral properties at this time.  Our business is presently focused on the exploration and evaluation of various mineral deposits in North America.
 
We are currently focusing our exploration and evaluation activities in the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador and the State of Wyoming on the following properties:
 
 
·
Central Mineral Belt properties located in Labrador, Canada.
 
 
·
The Bootheel Project LLC located in Wyoming, U.S.A.
 
Material Effects of Government Regulations
 
Our current and anticipated future operations, including further exploration activities, require permits from various Canadian Federal and Provincial and U.S. Federal and State governmental authorities.  Such operations are subject to various laws governing land use, the protection of the environment, production, exports, taxes, labor standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, well safety and other matters.  Unfavorable amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing operations and activities of resource exploration companies, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a materially adverse impact on us and cause increases in capital expenditures which could result in our ceasing operations.  We have had no material costs related to compliance and/or permits in recent years, and anticipate no material costs in the next year.
 
Field work is prohibited on certain parts of the Bootheel Properties due to the presence of sage grouse mating areas during the period March 15th to June 30th.
 
Seasonality
 
We can only carry out exploration when weather is favorable.  Typically, we cannot carry out any work at a reasonable cost during the months of November and December for winter freeze-up and March and April for spring break-up on our Canadian properties.

Golden Promise Property and Agreements
 
The Company entered into the Golden Promise Option and Joint Venture Agreement dated April 8, 2009 between the Company and Paragon, pursuant to which it acquired a 60% interest in the Golden Promise Gold Project in Central Newfoundland, Canada with an option to acquire up to a 70% interest.  Work completed on the property to date confirms the exploration prospectivity of the area, however, the current poor state of the junior resource market renders financing such early stage projects virtually impossible. As a result, the decision was made to drop this ground and expend no additional funds. The property has since been returned to the vendor.

South Golden Promise Property and Agreements
 
The South Golden Promise Property agreement includes two separate blocks of licenses, these being the South Golden Promise and the Victoria Lake claim blocks, which collectively cover 1,975 hectares in 79 map-staked claims. The South Golden Promise Property consists of 45 claims, each 500 by 500 metres in size.
 
Under the terms of an agreement dated February 14, 2003 with Paragon, the Company earned a 60% interest in the South Golden Promise Property in consideration for issuing a total of 100,000 common shares and incurring a minimum of $1,750,000 in exploration expenditures.
 
As was the case with the Golden Promise project, work completed on the South Golden Promise project to date confirms the exploration prospectivity of the area, however, the current poor state of the junior resource market renders financing such early stage projects virtually impossible. As a result, the decision was made, in conjunction with our JV partner to expend no additional funds on this project and to drop the 45 claims that constitute the South Golden Promise Property.

Victoria Lake Property and Agreements
 
Paragon acquired an option to earn a 100% interest in the South Golden Promise Property pursuant to an underlying option agreement, dated January 8, 2003, with Al Keats, Calvin Keats and Kevin Keats.  The vendors are entitled to a 2.5% Net Smelter Return.  Paragon can repurchase a 1.5% Net Smelter Return for $1,500,000 and has a right of first refusal with respect to the remaining 1.0%.  As of September 2005, Paragon completed its obligations under its option agreement with the vendors and now holds a 100% interest in the South Golden Promise Property subject to the 2.5% Net Smelter Return.
 
Under the terms of an agreement dated February 14, 2003 with Paragon, we earned a 60% interest in the South Golden Promise Property in consideration for issuing a total of 100,000 common shares and incurring a minimum of $1,750,000 in exploration expenditures.
 
As was the case for the Golden Promise and South Golden Promise Properties, the current poor state of the junior resource market precludes further expenditure on the Victoria Lake Property. As a result, the decision was made to cease funding this project and the property has since been dropped, as the original vendors did not want the property returned to them.

CMB Property and Agreements
 
On October 14, 2004, we entered into an agreement (the ‘Original Moran Lake Agreement”) with a private individual, local prospector Lewis Murphy, for an option to acquire a 90% interest (subject to a 2% NSR and a 10% carried interest to the vendor) in the Moran Lake Property, comprising 67 claims in Central Labrador. On March 1, 2005 we acquired another 187 claims from Lewis Murphy entered into an amending agreement with Mr. Murphy (the “Amended and Restated Moran Lake Agreement”). The Amended and Restated Moran Lake Agreement called for exploration expenditures of $3,000,000, the issuance of 400,000 common shares, and cash payments of $575,000, with the balance of the shares and cash payable over a five-year term.  The agreement also required completion of a bankable feasibility study for the commencement of commercial production on the property within 24 months of completion of the aforementioned obligations.  
 
We subsequently carried out a detailed digital compilation of all the historic work that has been carried out on the property.
 
To date, we have issued 400,000 common shares, made cash payments totaling $575,000 and spent more than the required minimum $3,000,000 on project expenditures. On May 21, 2008, we entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with Mr. Murphy whereby we received a three year extension on the requirement to complete the bankable feasibility study such that the study will be due on or before November 10, 2013. Additionally, the Company was required to make advance royalty payments in the amount of $200,000 per year until the commencement of commercial production.
 
In December 2011, the Company settled a dispute with Mr. Murphy regarding the timing of the advance royalty payments. See “Item 8. Financial Information – 8.A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information – Legal/Arbitration Proceedings – Litigation with Lewis Murphy.”  On December 5, 2011, the Company entered into a co-ownership agreement (the “Moran Lake Co-Ownership Agreement”) with Mr. Murphy which agreement amends, clarifies, confirms and replaces the contractual relationship created between the parties further to the Original Moran Lake Agreement, the Amended and Restated Moran Lake and the Letter Agreement.  The Moran Lake Co-Ownership Agreement sets out that ownership of the CMB Property shall be as Tenants in Common in proportions of 90% the Company and 10% Mr. Murphy.  Mr. Murphy retained his 10% ownership in the CMB Property until such time as commercial production commences on the property. The Company will be required to make advance royalty payments of $200,000 per year commencing in November 2012. Should the Company choose to bring the Moran Lake Property into production; the advance royalty payments made previously will be deducted against any Net Smelter Royalty owed to the original vendor of the property. In addition, any requirement to complete a bankable feasibility study has been irrevocably waived.
 
On November 1, 2013, the Company exercised its right under the Moran Lake Co-ownership Agreement to abandon the claims covered under the Agreement. As all the claims subject to the Agreement were abandoned, the Company subsequently terminated the Agreement and was discharged from any further obligations with respect to the Agreement.
 
The Company retains 100% ownership, subject to certain third party obligations, of 916 mineral claims that currently constitute it CMB Property.
 
Property Description and Location
 
The Central Mineral Belt Property is located in the Central Mineral Belt of Labrador, about 140 km north of the town of Happy Valley-Goose Bay and 85 km southwest of the coastal community of Postville on Kaipokok Bay. In a direct line, the property is about 75 km from tidewater to the northeast.  The undeveloped Michelin uranium deposit is 60 km east-northeast of the Moran Lake Property.  The property area is within the Naskaupi Electoral District of Labrador.

Accessibility
 
Helicopter and fixed wing service out of Goose Bay are the most efficient means of access to the property.  Local infrastructure is confined to the limited facilities of the community of Postville, which has commercial airline service from Goose Bay and commercial ferry service from St John’s, Newfoundland.  Coastal boats are available to convey goods and passengers from Happy Valley to Postville.  Most necessary goods and services, including charter aircraft, can be obtained in Goose Bay, which has excellent commercial airline connections to St John’s, Halifax and Montreal.
 
This portion of central Labrador has a sub-Arctic climate, with strong seasonal contrasts marked by short cool summers and long cold winters.  Freeze-up typically begins in late October and lasts until early to mid-June.  Snow cover is relatively heavy and usually lasts seven to eight months.  Daytime temperatures during the winter typically range from -15º Celsius to -30º Celsius, while daytime summer temperatures typically range from 15º Celsius to 25º Celsius.
 
The topography of the Moran Lake area consists of rolling highlands with maximum relief approaching 300m.  The hilltops can be partly barren while the slopes and valleys are covered in vegetation, mostly scrubby black spruce and some deciduous trees with a thick intervening growth of alders.  Almost everywhere there is a thick ground cover of moss.  The valleys are steep sided at many locations and are often host to boggy ground with small ponds or lakes.  Moran Lake, one of the largest lakes on the property, occupies a prominent valley which trends east-northeast.
 
History
 
Uranium was first discovered near Moran Lake by British Newfoundland Exploration Limited (“Brinex”), which conducted prospecting, geological mapping and radiometric surveying in the area from 1956 to 1958. In 1964, Mokta Co. Ltd. (“Mokta”) acquired a development license for the Moran Lake area and subsequently discovered uranium mineralization at Lady Lake, the site of the present C zone.  In following years, Mokta completed a considerable amount of prospecting, trenching and packsack drilling in the Moran Lake A, B and C zones. In 1969 however, Mokta allowed the development license to expire at which time the license was granted to Brinex, which did no further work on the property.
 
In 1976, the license was granted to Commodore Mining Company Limited (Commodore) which in turn optioned the property to Shell Canada Resources Limited (Shell).  During September of 1976, Shell performed geological, magnetometer and Track Etch surveys over the B Zone near Henry Lake and did preliminary geological mapping on the C zone.  This led to a 15 hole, 864 metre drill program to test the B Zone uranium mineralization during the winter of 1977.
 
In the summer of 1977, a full exploration program was carried out on the C Zone including detailed geological mapping, systematic trench sampling, a scintillometer survey and a small drill program totaling eight holes and 497 metres. Uranium mineralization was discovered in a fault zone over which VLF-EM, magnetometer and Track Etch surveys were performed during September.  In the winter of 1978, Shell completed a 17 hole, 1,542 metre drill program to test the uraniferous fault zone and subsequently found high grade uranium mineralization.  The following summer’s exploration program consisted of VLF-EM, magnetometer and altimeter surveys over the entire C Zone, with a 15 hole, 1,581 metre drill program to test the uraniferous zones.  Low grade uranium mineralization was located in altered sandstones above the Aphebian-Helikian unconformity near Lady Lake.  This led to a 1979 winter drill program of 17 drill holes totaling 1,193 metres to explore the unconformity and what became later known as Lower C Zone.
 
In the summer of 1979, Shell undertook a review of its Moran Lake project.  Drill core from the Upper C zone (C-1 to C-35) was re-logged by one person and multiple samples were taken for thin section study and 30 element spectrographic analysis.  This work led to the appreciation that the rocks were extensively altered, that the identification of primary lithologies was in many cases dubious, that the uranium mineralization was associated with alteration and that there was a definable geometry to the alteration package.  The property was
 


 
22

 

considered to have good uranium potential and an 8 hole, 1,400 metre drill program was proposed but never carried out as Shell abandoned its interest in the area due to a decline in uranium prices.
 
Lewis Murphy acquired the Moran Lake claims in 2003 and optioned the ground to us in October of 2004.  In 2003, an airborne gravity survey of the area located an interpreted 4 milligal to 8 milligal gravity anomaly, elliptical in shape, about 4 km long and centered between the Moran B and C zones. Considering the spatial association of uranium with brecciated, highly silicified, carbonatized and hematized rocks, plus locally significant concentrations of copper, silver and gold mineralization, we invoked the analogy with Iron Oxide Copper Gold (IOCG) deposit types, as at the Olympic Dam copper-uranium deposit in Australia.
 
Since acquiring the Moran Lake property in October 2004, we have embarked on an aggressive program including airborne radiometric and magnetic surveys, compilation of previous work including sampling archived drill core from the 1970’s Shell Canada Resources drilling, and commencement of diamond drilling in January of 2006.  A more detailed description of the exploration program is included below under “Exploration”.
 
Property Geology
 
The Moran Lake Property was staked in a configuration to cover as much mineralized Paleoproterozoic stratigraphy as was available encompassing mostly rocks of the Moran Lake Group and the overlying Heggart Lake, Brown Lake and Sylvia Lake Formations of the Bruce River Group, both groups containing known occurrences of uranium, Cu, Pb, Zn, Ag, F and iron (as pyrite and hematite).
 
The Moran Lake Group unconformably overlies Archean gneisses and granites of the Nain Province. The basal unit, the Warren Creek Formation was deposited in a low energy, shallow shoreline or shelf environment and consists mainly of black graphitic, grey and green shale and siltstone containing local interbeds of dolostone, chert and black conglomerate with siltstone and shale clasts. The Warren Creek Formation ranges from perhaps 1,200 metres up to 3,000 metres in thickness and is overlain conformably by a 100 metre to 300 metre thickness of the Joe Pond Formation, a sequence of light- to dark-green, fine grained, massive and pillowed basalt and mafic tuff with occasional interbeds of variably colored chert or grey dolostone. Rocks of the Moran Lake Group occupy a northeasterly trending belt which underlies the northern portion of the Moran Lake Property.
 
The Bruce River Group consists of a basal, polymictic conglomerate and sandstone of the Heggart Lake Formation overlain by polymictic conglomerate and tuffaceous sandstone of the Brown Lake Formation.  The uppermost and thickest unit of the Bruce River Group is the Sylvia Lake Formation, a bimodal, potassic calc-alkaline assemblage of predominantly subaerial volcanic rocks which are coeval with the plutons of the Trans Labrador Batholith.  Northerly directed compression during the Grenville orogenic event folded the Bruce River Group into a northeast-trending, open, upright syncline.
 
Exploration
 
After acquiring the property in October of 2004, we immediately launched a comprehensive review and compilation of all previous exploration carried out in the area.  The results of the review confirmed that the property had considerable potential to host several types of uranium deposits including uranium-rich iron oxide copper gold deposits (IOCG).
 
Exploration work on the property by us has included line cutting, airborne and ground geophysical surveys, lake sediment sampling, till geochemical and alpha track surveys, biogeochemical surveys, prospecting, limited hand trenching, mechanical trenching, geological mapping and diamond drilling.  An airborne radiometric and magnetic survey totaling 7,312 line kilometres covering the entire property was carried out by Fugro Airborne Surveys in 2005.  A supplemental airborne survey totaling 675 kilometres covering several claims acquired subsequent to the 2005 survey was carried out by Fugro in 2006.  In 2007, a helicopter supported electromagnetic and magnetic (HeliGEOTEM) survey totaling approximately 4,500 line kilometres was carried out over two different blocks on the property.  The ground geophysical surveys include gravity, induced potential (IP), and horizontal loop EM (Max-Min) surveys.  Follow-up of targets identified from interpretation of the various data has resulted in the
 


 
23

 

discovery of several new showings and target areas, some of which have been drill tested as well as others that are being advanced to the drill ready stage.
 
Drilling
 
We launched our first drill program in February 2006, completing approximately 2,750 metres of drilling in 19 holes at the C Zone.  Further drilling using two drill rigs and totaling over 18,500 metres was carried out during the summer of 2006, followed by an additional 9,400 metres of drilling during the winter of 2007.  The 2007 summer program was our most aggressive program, with over 28,000 metres of drilling using three rigs.  This was followed by over 12,000 metres during the 2008 winter program.  The drilling programs focused on defining uranium mineralization at the C Zone, which represents the most advanced uranium target on the property, but also tested targets at Area 1, Armstrong, B Zone, Area 51, Moran Heights, Madsen Lake and Croteau Lake.
 
Our 2006 drill program totaled 21,486 metres and consisted of 137 holes, of which 58 tested the Upper C Zone and 10 tested the Lower C Zone.  The remainder of the holes tested seven other anomalies or showings on the property.  From late January 2007 to late April 2007, we carried out further drilling at the C Zone as well as limited drilling at Area 1 and the Armstrong and Dominion showings.  Total drilling in the winter of 2007 amounted to 9,410 metres in 34 holes.  At the C Zone, our 2007 winter drill program consisted of 8,211 metres in 26 holes.  Fifteen of the holes tested both the Upper and Lower C Zone, 6 holes (1,042 metres) tested the Upper C Zone only, and 5 holes (1,166 metres) tested the Lower C Zone.  The program expanded the C Zone mineralization along strike and to depth.  The program also included the intersection of the thickest and highest grades of uranium reported from the Lower C Zone.
 
The summer 2007 drill program totaled 28,745 metres in 121 holes.  Eighty-nine of those holes (15,727 metre) were targeting the C Zone, with the goal of upgrading and expanding the existing NI 43-101 resource.  Drilling intercepted the highest and thickest grades to date including 0.202% U3O8 over 22.4 metres as part of a wider zone grading 0.100% U3O8 over 46.3 metres in hole ML-122 and 0.100% U3O8 over 45.7 metres as part of a much wider interval that assayed 0.074% U3O8 over 71.3 metres in ML-87.  A total of 26 holes (2,820 metres) were drilled at Area 1 in the 2007 summer program and 6 holes (784 metres) at Croteau Lake.
 
Our 2008 winter drill program consisted of 55 holes totaling 12,198 metres.  Drilling was focused at Armstrong, which is believed to anchor the southern end of the same 4.5 kilometre long trend that hosts the C Zone to the north and Area 1 in the middle.  A total of 6,366 metres in 30 holes were drilled in this recently discovered zone, with highlights from ML-AR-26, which returned 0.20% U3O8 over 9.5 metres including 1.10% U3O8 over 1.6 metres.
 
In 2008 an updated resource estimate for the Upper and Lower C Zones was prepared based on drilling up to May 2008. In addition, resource estimates were prepared for two new zones of uranium mineralization discovered by the Company, these being the Trout Pond (Area 1) and Armstrong zones (the “2008 CMB Report”).  The mineral resource estimate included a total indicated resource for the Upper C Zone is 5.19 million pounds of U3O8 (6.92 million tonnes grading 0.034% U3O8). The Upper C Zone also contains additional resources in the inferred category which, when combined with the inferred resources in the Lower C Zone, Trout Pond and Armstrong zones total 5.83 million pounds of U3O8 (8.17 million tonnes grading 0.032% U3O8).  With the exception of the Lower C Zone, these estimates are reported at a block cut-off of 0.015% U3O8.  The cut-off grades are considered appropriate for the location and cost profile that can be expected for open pit mining.  In the case of the Lower C Zone, a cut-off grade of 0.035% U3O8 is used for reporting purposes, reflecting higher costs associated with underground mining.
 
The summer 2008 drill program consisted of 3,516 metres in 19 holes.  Eleven of the holes (2,035 metres) tested the C Zone, while 6 of the holes (1,276 metres) tested targets at Area 1 and two holes (205 metres) were drilled at Madsen Lake in the central portion of the CMB Property.
 
In December 2008, a previously unidentified zone of uranium mineralization, referred to as the “Apollo Zone” was discovered.  During the summer of 2008, follow-up prospecting of several anomalies identified in 2006 revealed significant uranium mineralization over a 500 metre strike length. The Apollo Zone returned grab samples assaying up to 0.50% U3O8 in outcrop and 0.20% U3O8 in local boulders. This new zone appears to lie along strike of the Boiteau Lake Showing (0.79% U3O8) announced by Bayswater Uranium Corp. in November 2008.  The Boiteau
 

 
24

 

Lake Showing lies very close to the Company/Bayswater property boundary and the trend is open along strike for the 7 kilometres between the showing and the Apollo Zone.  The Apollo Zone lies approximately 11 kilometres NE from the C Zone uranium resource and approximately 3 kilometres south of previously discovered Blue Star, where sampling by the Company in 2006 returned values of up to 1.37% U3O8 outcrop. To date on the Moran Lake property, we have completed 366 holes totaling over 65,000 metres.  One hundred and ninety-three holes have been drilled at the C Zone, 55 at Area 1, and 32 at Armstrong.  Several other areas have also been drill tested, including the B Zone, Moran Heights, Area 51, Croteau Lake, and Madsen Lake.  All programs have been helicopter supported producing BTW size drill core.
 
In December 2010, the Company completed a vanadium resource expansion program and outlined an NI 43-101 resource of 42.8 million pounds of vanadium (14.7 million tonnes at 0.15% V2O5) in the indicated category and an additional 93.6 million pounds (28.3 million tonnes at 0.16% V2O5) in the inferred category.
 
In 2011, a 3,138 metre drill program was completed on the CMB Project. The drilling focused on connecting the C-Zone and Area One deposits, as well as testing the Blue Star prospect. The results confirmed that the vanadium mineralization is continuous between the C-Zone and Area One over a strike length of approximately 1.7 km The mineralization remains open along strike and at depth. Drilling on the Blue Star prospect tested coincident airborne geophysical and rock geochemical anomalies; four out of the ten holes drilled intersected uranium mineralization. The best hole was 3 metres of 0.05% U3O8.
 
Field crew mobilization to the CMB uranium/vanadium project in central Labrador was delayed during the summer months of 2012 due to forest fire conditions resulting from an unseasonably warm, dry spring.  The $2.2 million program focused on the Two Time, Firestone, Blue Star and C zones, with a total of 3,359 metres (11,020 feet) of drilling having been completed. The goal of this program was to expand the existing uranium and vanadium resources, as well as test new uranium targets within the main property.

Two Time Prospect
 
Drilling on the Two Time prospect in 2012, was aimed at extending the deposit to the south and at depth. Drill hole CMB-12-49 successfully intersected mineralization at the expected depth over a thicker interval, indicating the deposit is continuous to the south along strike and along dip. This hole represents a minimum 50m step out to the south from previous holes into the deposit. Four shallow holes drilled north of the Two Time zone to evaluate radon anomalies did not intersect uranium mineralization.

Firestone Project
 
Five holes, totalling 740 metres, tested the Ford showing, the northeast extension of the Firestone showing which had returned uranium values in 2011.  No significant mineralization was encountered.

C Zone Corridor
 
Drilling within the C Zone corridor was focused on determining if the vanadium mineralization identified to date represents one continuous body within the corridor. Drill hole ML-12-197 was positioned halfway between the Area 1 prospect and the Trout Pond prospect. Vanadium mineralization was intersected during the drilling program, supporting the interpretation of a single continuous zone of vanadium mineralization within the corridor. Two holes drilled off the trend on other targets failed to encounter mineralization. Additional support for the continuity of the vanadium mineralization was acquired via a resampling of some drill holes previously completed on the property. Vanadium mineralization was identified in three holes, not previously sampled for vanadium.

Blue Star
 
Four holes, totalling 535 metres, tested newly defined targets and the possible extension of the Bayswater Boiteau mineralization onto the property.  None of the holes intersected significant mineralization on the property.

CMB-JV Property and Agreement
 
In July 2008, we acquired a 60% interest in 4,741 claims in the Central Mineral Belt from Expedition by paying CDN $500,000 and issuing 2,500,000 common shares and 1,875,000 warrants to Expedition.  The claims were part of a property agreement between Expedition and Silver Spruce, under which Expedition had earned a 60% interest.  The claims are host to the Two Time deposit.
 
Silver Spruce declined to participate in last summer’s program and has diluted its interest to a 2% Net Smelter Return Royalty.   Going forward, the CMB and CMB-JV properties have been consolidated into one property referred to as the CMB Property. However, in order to provide additional information to the interested reader, the detailed summary of the CMB-JV property has been included in this year’s 20-F.
 
Property Description and Location
 
The CMB-JV Project comprised 616 map-staked claims in several separate claim blocks located roughly 150 kilometres north of the town of Happy Valley – Goose Bay, Labrador.  Approximately half of the claims are contiguous with the Company’s 100% owned claims located near Moran Lake, while most of the remaining claims are situated south and southeast of the coastal community of Postville on Kaipokok Bay.

The CMB-JV Project is situated within the Central Mineral Belt (CMB) of Labrador, a geological province comprising six Proterozoic sequences of volcanic, sedimentary and plutonic rocks ranging in age from about 2.0 to 1.3 billion years and include, from oldest to youngest, the Post Hill, Moran Lake, Aillik, Bruce River, Letitia Lake and Seal Lake Groups.  The CMB includes portions of 4 major tectonic provinces, these being the Nain, Makkovik and Grenville provinces, and the Hopedale Block of the Archean Nain Province.  The easternmost claims of the CMB-JV Project lie within the Makkovik Province, while the westernmost claims of the CMB-JV Project generally lie along the boundary between the Nain, Churchill and Grenville Province.
 
Exploration
 
Exploration by Silver Spruce and Expedition includes an airborne magnetic radiometric survey over all the claims, as well as limited follow-up over most of the claims including geological mapping, prospecting and lake sediment sampling.  Exploration to date has focused on the claim blocks hosting the Two Time deposit, where work has been more extensive and includes line cutting, ground scintillometer surveying, soil, till, lake, and stream sediment sampling, ground radon (RadonEx) surveying, prospecting, trenching, geological mapping, and diamond drilling.
 
The most significant discovery to date on the CMB-JV claims has been the Two Time deposit, which was discovered as a result of follow-up of a high priority airborne radiometric anomaly.  The Two Time zone is hosted within brecciated and fractured granitic to dioritic intrusive rocks of the Kanairiktok Intrusive Suite characterized by hematite, carbonate, and chlorite alteration.  A number of other showings and prospects have also been discovered on the claim block, including the Firestone Showing, Doucette, HF, J, F, and W occurrences.
 
Drilling
 
Past drilling carried out on the CMB-JV Project has been focused on the ‘CMB-NW (Northwest)’ claim block, which is contiguous with the northern portion of the Company’s 100% owned CMB Project.  Diamond drilling carried out to date by Silver Spruce and Expedition totals 11,196 metres in 44 holes.  Highlights include 0.118% U3O8 over 28.00 metres in hole CMB-07-06, 0.101% U3O8 over 33.00 metres in hole CMB-07-14, and 0.112% U3O8 over 19.00 metres in hole CMB-07-34.
 
Based on the drilling results, an indicated mineral resource estimate of 2.33 million pounds of U3O8 (1.82 million tonnes grading 0.058% U3O8) and additional inferred mineral resource estimate of 3.73 million pounds of U3O8
 

 
26

 

(3.16 million tonnes grading 0.053% U3O8) was prepared for the Two Time zone using a cut-off grade of 0.03% U3O8. The Two Time zone remains open to depth and along strike to the south.
 
During the summers of 2009 and 2010, the Company carried out geological mapping, prospecting and sampling programs to evaluate priority targets generated from the airborne surveys.  Several new uranium showings were discovered and were followed up during the 2011 summer drilling program.
 
Two of the new targets, South Brook and Running Man, were found on the CMB-JV Property, which is located directly to the west of the Jacques Lake Deposit, recently purchased by Paladin Energy from Aurora Energy / Fronteer Development Group.  Forty Six (46) samples from the South Brook Showing gave results ranging from 0.03% to 0.46% U3O8, averaging 0.11%.  The showing is outlined by anomalous float and bedrock occurrences for approximately 3.5 kilometres (km).  The Running Man Showing is located approximately 5.5 km southeast of the South Brook Showing and consists of a 2 km long, linear airborne radiometric anomaly where 21 samples gave values from 0.03% to 0.28% U3O8.
 
The Big Bear Showing is located on the CMB-NE Property, approximately 20 km northeast of CMB-JL.  The showing, in a 1.25 km long corridor of anomalous bedrock radioactivity, is hosted in altered granitic rocks and gave results ranging from 0.02% to 0.1% U3O8, averaging 0.06%.
 
As noted above, with Silver Spruce declining to participate in the fiscal 2012 exploration activities and their subsequent dilution down to a 2% NSR, the CMB-JV project has been consolidated with the CMB project. The results of the fiscal 2013 exploration activities on this consolidated property have been detailed in the “recent exploration” of the CMB Property section above.

Wyoming – Bootheel and Buck Point Properties
 
 
On March 31, 2009, the Company acquired the Bootheel and Buck Point Properties in Wyoming, USA through the acquisition of Target via the Plan of Arrangement.
 
On June 7, 2007, Target, now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement to form the Bootheel Project, LLC with Ur-Energy, Inc. (“URE”) whereby Target may acquire a 75% participating interest in two uranium properties, the Bootheel and Buck Point properties located in the Shirley Basin, Albany County, Wyoming (the “Bootheel Project”) by completing expenditures totalling US $3 million and issuing 31,250 common shares on or before June 7, 2011. Target earned its 75% interest in the property as all shares have been issued and US $3.1 million had been spent as of April 30, 2010.  As URE declined to participate in the fiscal 2012 exploration

program, its participating interest was diluted from 25% to approximately 19%, and Target’s participating interest increased from 75% to approximately 81%.
 
Under Agreements dated February 5, 2008 between MJ Ranches Inc. (“MJ Ranches”) and Crosshair USA, as manager, The Bootheel Project LLC leased MJ Ranches’ 75% ownership of certain minerals on fee land that adjoins the Bootheel Property. The initial term of the agreement is for five years with provision for two renewals.  Payment for the initial five year term is US$252,651 paid in advance, increased for inflation for the renewal periods.  The Fee Lands are subject to a sliding scale Royalty tied to the sale price of uranium. Subsequent to the period end (in February, 2013) the private mineral lease and surface use agreements with MJ Ranches for a portion of the Bootheel property expired.  Negotiations to reach a new agreement with MJ Ranches, the terms of which would reflect current market conditions, were unsuccessful. Certain portions of the Mineral Resources included in Technical Report on the Bootheel property issued by the Company, dated February 27, 2012, are located on those lands which were subject to the mineral lease with MJ Ranches. While the lines of communication remain open should MJ Ranches choose to reconsider their position, the Bootheel Project LLC has decided to move forward on the assumption that the MJ Ranches ground will not form part of the project.
 
Property Location
 
The Bootheel and Buck Point properties are located in Albany County on the southeast edge of the Shirley Basin approximately 60 miles southeast of Casper, Wyoming and 25 miles southeast of Medicine Bow.
 
The Bootheel property is currently comprised of 81 Federal lode mining claims and one 640 acre Wyoming State Mineral Lease, No. 0-040774. The lode mining claims control the subsurface mineral rights and are administered by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM).
 
Accessibility
 
The Shirley Basin property is readily accessible year-round by an extensive system of county gravel and unimproved ranch roads extending east from U.S. Highways 30 and 287 and Wyoming Road 487. The all season maintained gravel County Road Number 61 (Fetterman Road) crosses the Bootheel property.
 
History
 
Uranium was discovered in the Shirley Basin in 1955 by Teton Exploration Drilling Co., who found ore-grade material by drilling west of the Little Medicine Bow River in the western part of the Shirley Basin, 30 mi south of Casper.  In the summer of 1957, several thousand claims were staked over 150 square mi.  By the end of 1959, over 1,000,000 ft of drilling had been completed through the mineralized Wind River Formation, and into underlying pre-Tertiary rocks.  In 1959, Utah Mining Corp. later Utah Construction and Mining Co. (Utah) sank a shaft on their property and the first uranium was produced in March 1960, with ore shipped to the Lucky Mc mill in the Gas Hills area west of Casper.  Late in 1964, the company stopped underground mining and commenced an in-situ leach operation using sulphuric acid and ion exchange for recovery.  Production amounted to approximately 200,000 pounds of U3O8 per year through 1970. In 1970, the ISR operation was replaced by a conventional mine and mill.

In July 1960, Petrotomics Co. commenced an open-pit operation in the same area and in 1962 a solvent extraction facility was built on the property.  A second pit commenced operation in 1966.  By late 1969, there were three operating mines in the Shirley Basin, those of Petrotomics and Utah, as well as Kerr McGee Corp. (“Kerr-McGee”).

Total production from the Basin amounted to about 34 million lbs of uranium. The last mine closed in 1992 and most of the pits have been reclaimed.  Cogema Mining Inc. retains one pit, which is used for the disposal of low-level radioactive waste from the ISR operations in the Powder River Basin.

The Bootheel property was originally staked in 1958 by Kerr McGee Corp. Kerr McGee drilling (283 holes) discovered both shallow oxidized and deeper uranium mineralization in sandstones but dropped the property in 1962.  The company re-acquired the property in 1968, and again abandoned it.  Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation (Union Pacific Railroad) also conducted limited drilling in the early 1970s.  In 1977, Cherokee Exploration Inc. (“Cherokee”) obtained a land package, as well as the Kerr McGee database and formed an exploration and drilling participation agreement with Uranium Resources and Development Company (“URADCO”), a subsidiary of Pennsylvania Power and Light.  Drilling from 1978 to 1980 partly delineated both shallow and deep sandstone mineralization.  Drilling by Kerr McGee Corporation, Cherokee, URADCO and others intersected significant uranium mineralization in sandstones at depths ranging from 150 to 600 feet. Grades and thickness range from 2 feet at 0.12% U3O8 to 22.5 feet at 0.071% U3O8.

Dames & Moore estimated a historical resource included in a report dated 1980, for parts of the property.  Nuclear Assurance Corporation (NAC) completed a study in 1982 reporting the reserves and resources.

In 1995, Cherokee sold the project and database to Cameco Corp. (“Cameco”) who carried out limited drilling and evaluation of the in-situ recovery potential. Although the results were very favorable, Cameco abandoned the property in 1998 due to the low uranium price ($10 per pound). Total drilling on the property is estimated to be over 600,000 feet. The known uranium zone on the property remains open for expansion.
 
The Bootheel Project LLC acquired a database from Power Resources Inc. that includes reports, gamma logs, drill logs and other data which primarily cover the Federal mining claims but also include some historic data from the surrounding fee land.

On January 15, 2009 the Bootheel Project LLC acquired additional data from Cameco which covers the four fee sections under lease from MJ Ranches.  The data includes historical geological and gamma logs covering 660 drill holes totalling approximately 290,000 feet.  Compilation to date indicates that there have been approximately 1,900 drill holes totalling in excess of 600,000 ft, completed on the property and the surrounding area.

The Buck Point property was drilled in 1979 and 1980 by Cherokee and Mobil Oil Corp.   Mineralization has been found in at least six sandstone units over a 250 ft. interval, with grades up to 0.10% U3O8.  No further work has been carried out on the property since then.
 
Property Geology
 
The Bootheel Project is located at the south-eastern margin of the Shirley Basin, along the western flank of the Laramie Mountains.  Tertiary sediments occupy the entire surface area of the property and unconformably overlie a gently dipping, relatively undisturbed sequence of Paleozoic and Mesozoic sediments.  A moderate degree of block faulting and some gentle folding are the main structural features and mostly affect pre-Tertiary rocks.

Uranium mineralization occurs within seven different sandstone beds within the gently dipping Jurassic and Cretaceous stratigraphy and within the overlying Tertiary Wind River Formation.  Five horizons host significant mineralization and have the potential to host economic resources: 1) Jurassic Sundance Formation containing the Canyon Springs B and D Beds, 2) Cretaceous Dakota Sandstone, 3) Cretaceous Rusty Beds Sandstone, 4) Cretaceous Muddy Sandstone and 5) Tertiary Wind River Formation.  Three other Cretaceous horizons (Lakota Sandstone, Fuson Shale and Wall Sandstone) contain scattered weak mineralization, but are not considered exploration targets at this time.

Two major zones of mineralization are recognized within the Sundance Formation.  The main zone in Sections 36 and 1 stretches for over 7,000 ft in length and reaches widths of up to 400 ft and is described as a series of tabular zones.  In Sections 6 and 7 the mineralization shows the characteristic roll front shape with the main northeast –trending nose extending approximately 1,900 ft in length.  These zones vary from 2 to 60 ft in thickness, averaging from 0.017% to 0.216% eU3O8 occurring at depths of 158 to 585 ft.  Length of the individual bodies ranges from 300 to 1,300 ft.

Three Cretaceous sandstone units host uranium mineralization.  The Dakota Sandstone ranges from 4 to 47 ft thick and contains abundant pyrite and carbonaceous material.  Uranium mineralization ranging from 2 to 14 ft thick,
 
 
 
30

 
 
grades from 0.026% to 0.23% eU3O8 and occurs from 163 to 325 ft below the surface.  The main zone is about 300 ft wide and 1,000 ft long.  The Rusty Beds range from 5 to 87 ft thick, and contain abundant pyrite and carbonaceous debris.  Mineralization is 2 to 18 ft thick, grades from 0.020% to 0.11% eU3O8 and occurs from 232 to 297 ft below the surface.  Mineralization occurs in three small zones, 300 to 400 ft in size.  The Muddy Sandstone is 18 to 45 ft thick and is the least well mineralized of the Cretaceous units, with only one zone, about 200 ft by 400 ft in dimension, drilled to date.  This zone ranges from 2 to 6 ft thick, grades from 0.145% to 0.157% eU3O8 and is relatively shallow at 138 to 149 ft below the surface.

Tertiary Wind River Formation mineralization is typically thin, high grade, meandering and somewhat laterally discontinuous.  The Wind River ranges from 25 to 270 ft thick, averaging 150 ft.  The mineralized zones are typically 2 to 24 ft thick, averaging 5 ft, from 0.016% to 0.520% eU3O8 and occur from 50 to 215 ft below the surface.  The two main zones are up to 700 ft in width and 1,670 ft in length.

Exploration and Development
 
The 2008 drilling program, designed to further test the mineralized Sundance Formation, consisted of 93 vertical holes averaging 540 feet in depth and totaling 50,163 ft.  Of these holes, 12 were spot cored through the Sundance Formation resulting in 708.5 ft of core.  Drilling commenced in June and was completed September 20, 2008.  Virtually all historic drill hole sites within the main resource zone were resurveyed.
 
In addition to the drilling program, the historic holes were relocated, limited ground radiometric and water sampling surveys were carried out.   On February 5, 2009 Target reported that preliminary bottle roll tests had confirmed historical metallurgical test work indicating uranium recoveries of 87% or better using sodium bicarbonate as a lixiviant.
 
The final historic drill data set acquired from Cameco in January 2009 was compiled by our geological team and combined with the results from over 50,000 feet of drilling completed by Target at Bootheel in 2008.
 
Activities in fiscal 2011 included further base line environmental studies.  A Sage Grouse and Raptor survey was completed in June.  The Nuclear Regulatory Commission was notified in August of the Company`s intention to file a permit application in 2012.
 
In the summer 2011, the Company carried out an $860,000 exploration program, which consisted of 35,760 feet of drilling in 76 holes.  Hydrogeological tests and continued permitting were also completed.  A synthesis of all of these data in 2013 have enabled the Company to generate an Indicated Mineral Resource estimate of 1.12 million pounds of U3O8 (1.570M tons @0.036%) and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 1.05 million pounds of U3O8 (1.315M tons @ 0.040%) for the 81 Federal lode claims and single Wyoming State lease that currently comprise the Bootheel property. The above Mineral Resource was estimated by C. Stewart Wallis, P. Geo, with an effective date of July 8, 2013. The Classifications of the Mineral Resources follow the CIM guidelines dated November, 2010.  Wind River resources were estimated using the polygonal method at an estimated cut-off grade of 0.02% eU3O8 over a minimum thickness of 4 feet and a minimum grade x thickness (GT) product of 0.15ft% and a long term uranium price of $70 per pound. The Sundance resources were estimated using the contour method at an estimated cut-off grade of 0.015% eU3O8 over a minimum thickness of 4 feet and a minimum grade x thickness (GT) product of 0.15 ft% and a long term uranium price of $70 per pound. A tonnage factor of 16 ft3/ton was used for the Sundance Formation, and 15 ft3/ton was used for the Wind River Formation. There are no known legal, environmental or other risks that could materially affect the development of the mineral resources.
 
Current Status
 
In light of the continuing downward pressure on the uranium price, as well as the overall poor state of the junior resource market, the Bootheel Project LLC decided to put the project on care and maintenance, enabling it to keep its expenditures to a minimum, while maintaining the integrity of its data and land package. As a result, mineral claims have been released that do not currently have any mineral resources identified on them, or any significant prospectivity to contain such resources. This action has reduced the total land package from 274 mineral claims and
 
 
 
31

 
 
two State Leases to 81 mineral claims and one State Lease, with a subsequent reduction in the mineral claim filing fee owed of approximately 70%. This land claim reduction included dropping the 107 claims and one State lease which comprised the Buck Point property, as well as 86 claims from the Bootheel property. This action will allow the Bootheel Project LLC to keep the most prospective ground in good standing for the next 12 months. Once a substantial and sustained reversal in the state of the uranium price occurs, the Bootheel Project LLC will re-evaluate its options with respect to the best path forward to maximize the value of the project.
 
Wyoming – Juniper Ridge Property
 
On October 29, 2010, we signed a definitive agreement with Strathmore Resources Ltd. (“Strathmore”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Strathmore Minerals Corp. to acquire the Juniper Ridge uranium property in return for stage cash payments and share issuances totalling US$4,450,000 and 2,750,000, respectively.
 
Since the signing of the agreement to acquire the Juniper Ridge Property, macroeconomic and world events have exerted significant downward pressure on the global uranium market. While the structure of the definitive agreement was appropriate at the time, it was unworkable under current market conditions. The Company and Strathmore engaged in extensive negotiations to attempt to restructure the agreement but a suitable resolution could not be achieved. As a result of this, management decided to terminate the agreement. Notice of this termination was sent to Strathmore on Friday, November 30, 2012. The Company has since completed the transfer of title to the Juniper Ridge Property back to Strathmore.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS
 
The following discussion for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012 should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the referenced periods and the notes thereto.  Our consolidated financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2014 have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the Canadian Dollar and therefore our consolidated financial statements are reported in Canadian dollars.
 
Overview
 
The Company is a mineral exploration company engaged in acquiring, exploring and developing mineral properties and its focus is primarily uranium, base and precious metals.  The Company does not have any producing mineral properties at this time.  The Company’s business is presently focused on the exploration and evaluation of various mineral deposits in North America.  The Company’s shares trade on TSX Venture Exchange and the OTCQB.
 
The Company is currently focusing on exploration and evaluation activities in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada and the State of Wyoming USA on the following properties:
 
 
·
Central Mineral Belt properties located in Labrador, Canada
 
 
·
The Bootheel Project LLC located in Wyoming, U.S.A.
 
For fiscal year ended April 30, 2014, the Company reported a net loss of $3,967,283 or $0.60 per common share, compared with a net loss of $11,674,061 or $1.77 per common share for the prior fiscal year.   While figures have been prepared using IFRS applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business as they come due, certain conditions and events cast significant doubt on the validity of this assumption.  For the year ended April 30, 2014, the Company reported a loss of $3,967,283 and as at that date had an accumulated deficit of $106,993,193. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional funding from loans or equity financings or through other arrangements. To raise funds for operations, the Company is pursuing merger and acquisition opportunities, in conjunction with private or institutional financing.  However, there can be no assurance that these activities will be successful.

Accounting Standards
 
The Company’s significant accounting policies are detailed in Note 3 to the accompanying annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2014.
 
The following accounting pronouncements have been made, but are not yet effective for the Company as at April 30, 2014.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these amended standards on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In November 2009 and October 2010, the IASB issued IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”), which represents the completion of the first part of a three-part project to replace IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, with a new standard. Per the new standard, an entity choosing to measure a liability at fair value will present the portion of the change in its fair value due to changes in the entity’s own credit risk in the other comprehensive income or loss section of the entity’s statement of comprehensive loss, rather than within profit or loss. Additionally, IFRS 9 includes revised guidance related to the derecognition of financial instruments. IFRS 9 applies to financial statements for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted.
 
Amendments to IAS 32, Financial Instruments:  Presentation, are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014.  This provides for amendments relating to offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities.
 
5.A.           Operating Results
 
Results of Operations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2014 compared to the fiscal year ended April 30, 2013
 
For the year ended April 30, 2014, the Company reported a net loss of $3,967,283 or $0.60 per common share, compared to a net loss of $11,674,061 or $1.77 per common share for the year ended April 30, 2013.
 
The Company did not issue any common shares during fiscal 2014 and as such, the weighted average number of common shares is the same as the total number of common shares outstanding as of April 30, 2014.  During the year ended April 30, 2014, the Company cancelled 183 common shares due to fractional rounding in connection with a share consolidation on the basis of one post-consolidated share for every ten pre-consolidated common share.
 
Expenses
 
Total expenses for the year ended April 30, 2014 were $3,898,339, representing a decrease of $8,014,636 compared to the prior year as a direct result of decreased overall Company activity during fiscal 2014.  All administrative expenses for the year ended April 30, 2014 decreased compared to the prior year with the exception of transfer agent and filing fees and are discussed below.
 
Audit and accounting fees of $22,775 (2013 - $124,087) decreased for the year ended April 30, 2014 compared to the prior year due to the Company incurring additional fees in the prior period in relation to Sarbanes-Oxley (“SOX”) compliance and additional tax filings.
 
Consulting expense of $Nil (2013 - $308,570), management fees of $142,533 (2013 - $411,368) and wages and salaries of $252,999 (2013 - $705,024) total $395,532 for fiscal 2014 (2013 - $1,424,962) which represents a total decrease of $1,029,430 compared to the prior year as a result of decreased Company activities and personnel providing services to the Company.  During the year ended April 30, 2014, a consulting agreement between the
 
 
 
 
33

 
 
Company and the former Chief Executive Officer and a consulting agreement between the Company and the former Executive Chairman were both terminated.
 
Director fees of $Nil (2013 - $39,467) decreased by $39,467 compared to the prior year as a result of the Company cancelling its director compensation program in light of financial conditions faced by the Company during the prior year.
 
During the year ended April 30, 2014, the Company spent a total of $34,225 (2013 - $2,835,066) on exploration and evaluation expenditures, including $560 (2013 - $1,910,312) on exploration of the CMB Project, $33,681 (2013 - $66,619) on the Bootheel Project, $Nil (2013 - $47,265) on the Golden Promise Project, recovered $392 (2013 - $810,870 expense) on the Juniper Ridge Project and $376 on other projects (2013 - $Nil).  Exploration and evaluation expenses for the year ended April 30, 2014 primarily related to minimal administrative costs and recoveries to maintain claims and insurance policies on the Bootheel Project.  In addition, the Company incurred reclamation costs to reclaim the land on which the Bootheel Project sits.  The fiscal 2014 decrease in exploration and evaluation expense of $2,800,841 in exploration and evaluation expenditures compared to the prior year is due to the Company no longer pursuing the CMB, Golden Promise and Juniper Ridge projects as well as decreased activities on the Bootheel Project.
 
During the year ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded an impairment of exploration and evaluation assets in the amount of $3,160,618 which relates to the CMB Project.  During the year ended April 30, 2013, the Company recorded an impairment of exploration and evaluation assets in the amount of $6,043,241 relating to the Bootheel, Golden Promise and Juniper Ridge projects.
 
Insurance expense decreased from $51,415 for the year ended April 30, 2013 to $33,036 for the year ended April 30, 2014 as a result of the Company adjusting its insurance policy to reflect corporate changes such as property abandonments and the Company’s stock exchange listings as previously discussed.
 
Interest expense incurred during the year ended April 30, 2014 in the amount of $1,427 (2013 - $10,402) relates to non-cash accretion of the Company’s future reclamation provisions.  The decrease in interest expense of $8,975 is a result of the balance of future reclamation provisions decreasing during the year ended April 30, 2014.
 
Investor relations expense of $11,122 (2013 - $180,786), legal costs of $8,989 (2013 - $35,950), office and administrative expenses of $87,331 (2013 - $167,188), project development costs of $Nil (2013 - $66,471), rent of $40,632 (2013 - $123,066) and travel expenses of $252 (2013 - $48,547) all decreased compared to the prior year as a direct result of decreased overall Company activities, including fewer marketing initiatives, no new project development and closure of the Company’s office in Colorado during fiscal 2014.
 
During the year ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded a recovery of $45,250 related to share-based compensation as a result of forfeitures of unvested stock options during the year. During the year ended April 30, 2013, the Company recorded share-based compensation of $626,364 according to vesting schedules of certain grants issued in 2011 and 2012. This expense (recovery) had no effect on the Company’s cash flows.
 
Transfer agent and filing fees increased to $124,896 for the year ended April 30, 2014 compared to $109,625 for the prior year as a result of the Company voluntarily delisting its common shares from the NYSE MKT, transitioning from the TSX to the TSX Venture Exchange, changing its name and consolidating its common shares on a 10 for 1 basis during fiscal 2014.
 
Other Income (Expenses)
 
Other expenses amounted to $68,944 for the year ended April 30, 2014 compared to other income of $238,914 for the year ended April 30, 2013.
 
During the year ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded finance income of $314 compared to $22,158 in the prior year which relates to interest earned on excess cash on hand.  The decrease in finance income is attributable to the Company’s decreasing cash and cash equivalents balance.  The Company also realized a gain on foreign exchange of $1,097 during fiscal 2014 compared to a gain of $465 during the prior year.
 
 
 
34

Results of Operations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2013 compared to the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012
 
For the year ended April 30, 2013, the Company reported a net loss of $11,674,061 or $0.18 per common share, compared to a net loss of $11,977,829 or $0.24 per common share for the year ended April 30, 2012.
 
Expenses
 
Total expenses for the current year were $5,869,734 or $5,882,200 lower than for fiscal 2012 as a direct result of decreases in exploration and evaluation expense, consulting fees, office and administration expenses, investor relation expenses, director fees, legal expenses, management fees, share-based compensation, travel expenses and transfer agent and filing fees.  The decrease in these expenses was partially offset by increases in audit and accounting expenses, project development costs, rent, and wages and salaries.
 
Audit and accounting expenses increased to $124,087 in fiscal 2013 compared to $93,554 in fiscal 2012 due to additional costs attributable to maintaining the Company’s Sarbanes-Oxley (“SOX”) compliance.
 
Consulting expense of $308,570 (2012 - $612,972), management fees of $411,368 (2012 - $498,890) and salaries and wages of $705,024 (2012 - $556,467) total $1,424,962 for fiscal 2013 (2012 - $1,668,329) which represents a total decrease of $243,367 from the previous year as a result of decreased Company activities and personnel providing services to the Company.
 
Exploration and evaluation expenses decreased to $2,835,066 in fiscal 2013 compared to $6,630,464 in fiscal 2012 as a direct result of decreased exploration and evaluation activities on all of the Company’s properties.  Exploration and evaluation expenses for fiscal 2013 relate primarily to the CMB Uranium/Vanadium Project and the Juniper Ridge Property.
 
 
 
35

 
 
 
During fiscal 2013, the Company also recorded an impairment of its exploration and evaluation assets of $6,043,241 related to the Bootheel, Golden Promise and Juniper Ridge projects.
 
Investor relations expense of $180,786 (2012 - $382,206), legal costs of $35,950 (2012 - $58,692), office and administrative expenses of $167,188 (2012 - $293,315), transfer agent and filing fees of $109,625 (2012 - $178,735) and travel expenses of $48,547 (2012 - $125,089) all decreased compared to fiscal 2012 as a direct result of decreased Company activities and fewer marketing initiatives during fiscal 2013
 
Project development costs increased to $66,471 in fiscal 2013 (2012 - $Nil) which relate to due diligence performed by the Company for its Letter of Intent with Wealth Minerals Ltd. for prospective uranium properties in Argentina.  The Letter of Intent with Wealth Minerals Ltd. was terminated in July 2013.
 
Share-based compensation expense decreased to $626,364 (2012 - $1,974,611) due to a decrease in recognition of share-based compensation expense according to vesting schedules of certain grants issued in 2011 and 2012. This expense had no effect on the Company’s cash flows.
 
Other Income (Expenses)
 
During the year ended April 30, 2013, the Company recorded an unrealized loss on marketable securities of $173,005 compared to a loss of $701,327 for the year ended April 30, 2012.  The Company also recorded a loss on the disposition of equipment of $39,416 compared to a gain of $1,898 on the disposition of equipment in fiscal 2012.  These other expenses were partially offset by the flow through premium in relation to the flow through shares issued in fiscal 2012 and  attributable to the qualified exploration expenditures incurred in fiscal 2013.  Finance income decreased in fiscal 2013 by $45,971 which relates to interest earned on excess cash on hand.
 
Exploration and Evaluation Assets
 
During the year ended April 30, 2013, the Company acquired exploration and evaluation assets of $224,816 compared to acquisitions of $1,411,455 during the year ended April 30, 2012.  During the year ended April 30, 2012, the Company was actively exploring various projects whereas the Company began to reduce its exploration operations during the year ended April 30, 2013 to conserve resources.
 
Working Capital
 
As of April 30, 2013, the Company had a working capital surplus of $94,253 compared with $5,466,961 as at April 30, 2012. The decrease of $5,372,708 was mainly due to cash used in operating activities of $4,834,152 and cash used in financing activities of $46,481.
 
Results of Operations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012 compared to the fiscal year ended April 30, 2011
 
For fiscal year ended April 30, 2012, the Company reported a net loss of $11,977,829 or $0.24 per common share, compared with a net loss of $4,077,470 or $0.10 per common share for the prior fiscal year.  The weighted average number of common shares for fiscal 2012 increased to 50,377,698 from 41,193,459 for the previous year.  The increase in the average number of shares outstanding was primarily due to share issuances related to the following:
 
 
·
Share issuance in relation to acquisition of exploration and evaluation assets (1,925,627 common shares) in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th quarters of fiscal 2012
 
·
Various financings (16,379,400 common shares) completed in the 4th quarter of fiscal 2012
 
 

 
 
36

 
Expenses
 
Expenses for fiscal 2012 were $11,751,934, approximately 152% higher than in fiscal 2011 due primarily to an increase in exploration and evaluation expense, consulting fees, office and administration expenses, investor relation expenses and wages and salaries expense. The increase in these expenses was partially offset by a reduction in legal expenses. Increases in exploration and evaluation expense, consulting fees and wages and salaries caused an 89% increase in the overall loss, which was partially offset by a decrease from legal expense due to the settlement of a dispute involving the Company.
 
Exploration and evaluation expense for fiscal 2012 was 650% higher than in 2011 due largely to the drilling programs completed on the CMB Uranium/Vanadium Project, the CMB JV Project, and the Bootheel Project, as well as the Mineral Resource estimate completed on the Juniper Ridge Property and the updated Mineral Resource estimate completed on the Bootheel Project.
 
 
Consulting and management fees increased by 184%, as a direct result of increased Company activities, reflecting favorable conditions in the markets.
 
 
In addition, investor relations expenditures increased by 143% from fiscal 2011 due to increasing investor and public relations activities.
 
To fuel the Company’s continuous growth, the Company hired additional field workers which caused wages and salaries to increase by 55% in 2012.
 
Audit and accounting expenditures increased by 22% compared to fiscal 2011 when additional costs attributable to the transition to IFRS were incurred.
 
Other Income (Expenses)
 
Other expense increased in fiscal 2012 by $804,941 to an expense of $225,895 compared with recorded income of $579,046 for fiscal 2011.  The Company recorded an unrealized loss on marketable securities of $701,327 compared to a gain of $501,961 for the previous year.  This loss was partially offset by the flow through premium in relation to the flow through shares issued in fiscal 2012. The Company also realized a gain of $1,898 from the sale of capital assets in the fiscal 2012 compared to a loss of $110,291 in fiscal 2011.
 
Exploration and Evaluation Assets
 
During fiscal 2012, the Company acquired exploration and evaluation assets of $1,411,455 compared to $474,183 for fiscal 2011, representing the acquisition costs related to the various mineral claims held by the Company.
 
Working Capital
 
Working capital was $5,466,961 as at April 30, 2012 compared with $10,815,170 as at April 30, 2011. The decrease of $5,348,209 was mainly due to cash used in operating activities of $9,649,032, which was then partially offset by financing activities of the Company during fiscal 2012.
 
5.B.           Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Liquidity – April 30, 2014, April 30, 2013 and April 30, 2012
 
As of April 30, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $78,541 (April 30, 2013 - $596,450; April 30, 2012 - $5,446,298) and a working capital deficit of $716,619 (April 30, 2013 – working capital of $94,253, April 30, 2012 – working capital of $5,466,961).  Both the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance and working capital have decreased significantly since fiscal 2012.  During the year ended April 30, 2012, the Company raised $6.5 million net proceeds from the sale of its common shares; and the funds raised were used to support exploration programs and general and administrative costs to date.
 
 
 
37

 
 
For the year ended April 30, 2014, cash used in operating activities amounted to $502,716 (2013 - $4,834,152; 2012 - $9,649,032).  The decrease in the cash used in operating activities for the past three years is reflective of decreased overall exploration activities as well as administrative costs.
 
Cash used in investing activities for the year ended April 30, 2014 amounted to $15,193 (2013 - $30,785 provided by investing activities; 2012 - $1,378,856 used in investing activities).  Investing activities for the year ended April 30, 2014 consisted of reclamation costs on the Bootheel Property, net of proceeds from the sale of marketable securities.  Investing activities for the year ended April 30, 2013 consisted of reclamation bonds returned to the Company, proceeds from the sale of equipment, net of exploration and evaluation asset acquisitions and equipment acquisitions.  Investing activities for the year ended April 30, 2012 consisted of acquisitions of exploration and evaluation assets, marketable securities, reclamation bonds and other exploration related payments, net of proceeds from the sale of equipment.
 
The Company did not incur any cash flows from financial activities during the year ended April 30, 2014 (2013 - $46,481 used in financing activities; 2012 – $6,542,601 provided by financing activities).  Investing activities for the year ended April 30, 2013 consisted of share issue costs paid in relation to the previous year’s financing.  During the year ended April 30, 2012, the Company raised $6,542,601 net proceeds from the sale of its common shares.
 
Capital Resources
 
At present the Company has no producing properties and consequently has no current operating income or cash flows. Without additional financing the Company will not be able to fund both its exploration programs and ongoing operations for the next 12 months. The Company intends to finance its future requirements through a combination of debt and/or equity issuance. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such financings or obtain them on favorable terms.  To date, the Company’s operations, exploration and development activities have been almost entirely financed from equity financings.  The Company will continue to identify financing opportunities in order to provide additional financial flexibility and to continue the development of its property portfolio, meet land claim expenditure requirements and other commitments.  While the Company has been successful raising the necessary funds in the past, there can be no assurance it can do so in the future. The Company currently does not have any material commitments for capital expenditures.
 
The Company currently is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
 
Financial Instruments
 
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are recorded and measured as follows:
 
Asset or Liability

Cash and cash equivalents
Fair value through profit or loss

The fair value of the Company’s receivables, payables and accrued liabilities, and amounts due to related parties approximate carrying value, due to their short-term nature.  The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities are measured at fair value under the fair value hierarchy based on level one quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  The Company’s other financial instruments, being reclamation bonds, are measured at amortized cost.
 
 
 
38

 
 
The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and price risk.
 
Credit risk
 
Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.
 
The Company is subject to credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents, and receivables. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions. The Company has no investments in asset-backed commercial paper. The Company’s receivables consist mainly of Goods and Services Tax receivable due from the Government of Canada.  The Company does not believe it is exposed to significant credit risk.
 
Liquidity risk
 
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.
 
The Company manages liquidity risk through its capital management as outlined in the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company will require additional equity financing to meet its administrative overhead costs and further exploration activities on its exploration and evaluation assets in fiscal 2015.
 
Market Risk 
 
Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, commodity and equity prices, and foreign exchange rates.
 
(a) Interest rate risk
 
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.
 
The risk that the Company will realize a loss as a result of a decline in the fair value of any short-term investments included in cash and cash equivalents is minimal because these investments generally have a fixed yield rate.
 
(b) Price risk
 
The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity prices, particularly uranium, and equity prices, since the Company possesses investments in publicly traded securities.  The Company closely monitors those prices to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company. However, there can be no assurance that the Company can exit these positions if required, resulting in proceeds approximating the carrying value of these securities.
 
(c) Currency risk
 
The Company’s expenditures are predominantly in Canadian dollars, and any future equity raised is expected to be predominantly in Canadian dollars.  As at April 30, 2014, the Company has accounts payable denominated in US dollars of US$57,654, cash of US$1,321 and reclamation bonds of US$25,800.  A 10% change in the Canadian dollar versus the US dollar would give rise to a gain/loss of approximately $3,346.
 
 
 
39

 
 
Material Commitments
 
As of the most recent fiscal year end, the Company does not have any material outstanding commitments.
 
5.C.           Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, etc.
 
We are a mineral exploration company and do not engage in conventional research and development.  We have not incurred research and development expenses or adopted research on development policies within the last three fiscal years.
 
5.D.           Trend Information
 
We are a mineral exploration company.  Consequently, we have no production, sales, or inventory in the conventional sense.  Our financial success will be dependent upon the extent to which we can discover mineralization and the economic viability of developing such properties.  Such development, if initiated, may take years to complete and the amount of resulting income, if any, is difficult to determine with any certainty.  We have no mineral reserves and to date have not produced any revenues.  The sales value of any mineralization discovered by us is largely dependent upon factors beyond our control such as the market value of the metals produced.
 
Other than as disclosed herein, we are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events which are reasonably likely to have a material effect upon our net sales or revenues, income from continuing operations, profitability, liquidity or capital resources, or that would cause reported financial information not necessarily to be indicative of future operating results or financial condition.
 
The major factors that caused significant variations in net loss were the recording of share-based payments expense for stock option vesting and impairment of exploration and evaluation assets based on a periodic review of such assets, both of which have no identifiable trend.

Director Compensation
 
From May 1, 2011 until April 30, 2013, the Company had a formal director compensation program under which non-executive directors of the Company received an annual board retainer of $20,000 and a fee of $1,500 for each Board meeting attended, the Chair of the Audit Committee received an annual fee of $6,000 and each of the Chairs of the Compensation and other Committees of the Board received an annual fee of $2,500.  Each of the aforementioned fees was paid quarterly. In light of financial conditions faced by the Company, the Company cancelled its director compensation program for fiscal 2014.
 
Directors are also entitled to reimbursement for reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors.  The Board of Directors may award special remuneration to any director undertaking any special services on our behalf other than services ordinarily required of a director.  Directors are also eligible to receive options to purchase Common Shares pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Stock Option Plan.
 
Employment and Consulting Agreements
 
On March 1, 2011, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with MJM Consulting (“MJM”) and Mark J. Morabito (“Morabito”) (the “2011 MJM Consulting Agreement”). Under the terms of the 2011 MJM Consulting Agreement, MJM provided the services of Morabito to act as Executive Chairman of the Company and to provide such general management consulting services as the Company may require from time to time.   Under the terms of the 2011 MJM Consulting Agreement, MJM received a monthly fee of $12,500 plus applicable taxes and was eligible to receive an annual cash bonus in an amount to be determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors.  In the event of termination of the 2011 MJM Consulting Agreement, MJM was entitled to receive a lump sum payment equivalent to 12 months’ fees.  In the event of a change of control, MJM was entitled to receive the equivalent of 36 months’ fees.  On September 1, 2011, the Company entered into an Assignment Agreement with MJM as Assignor, MJM Consulting Corp. as Assignee and Morabito pursuant to which MJM assigned, transferred and set over to MJM Consulting Corp. all of the Assignor’s rights, interests, benefits, duties and obligations in and relating to the 2011 MJM Consulting Agreement.  The MJM Consulting Agreement was terminated on December 31, 2013.

On July 12, 2011, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Ludwig and Associates LLC (“L&A”) and Mark Ludwig (“Ludwig”) (the ‘L&A Consulting Agreement”) pursuant to which L&A provided the personal services of Ludwig to act as Vice President and Chief Operating Officer (U.S.) and of a mining, engineering, business and management consultant of the Company.  Under the terms of the L&A Consulting Agreement, L&A received a monthly fee of US$16,666 and was eligible to receive an annual cash bonus in the amount of US$70,000, payable at the discretion of the Board of Directors based on the performance of L&A and the overall performance of the Company.  In addition L&A received a monthly lump sum cash payment of US$1,666 in lieu of medical benefits. In addition, as consideration for L&A and Ludwig entering into the L&A Consulting Agreement, L&A received a lump sum payment of US$25,000.  In the event of termination of the L&A Consulting Agreement, L&A was entitled to receive a lump sum payment equivalent to three (3) months’ fees and benefits.  On April 23, 2012, in anticipation of Ludwig being appointed as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, the parties to the L&A Consulting Agreement entered into an amendment to consulting agreement (the “Amending Agreement”) pursuant to which the fee was amended to US$20,833.33 per month.  All other terms of the L&A Consulting Agreement remained in full force and effect.  Upon the resignation of Mr. Ludwig on June 7, 2013, the L&A Consulting Agreement was terminated.

Post-Employment Compensation

No funds were set aside or accrued by us during Fiscal 2014 to provide pension, retirement or similar benefits for Directors, Executive Officers or Senior Management.
 
Other than as described above, we do not have any plans or arrangements in respect of remuneration received or that may be received by our executive officers to compensate such officers in the event of termination of
 

 
45

 

employment (as a result of resignation, retirement, change of control) or a change of responsibilities following a change of control, where the value of such compensation would exceed US$60,000 per person.

The Board of Directors presently consists of four directors, three of whom were elected at our annual general meeting of shareholders held on August 29, 2013 and one of whom was appointed a Director on April 1, 2014.  The directors have served in their respective capacities since their election and/or appointment and will serve until the next annual general meeting or until a successor is duly elected, unless the office is vacated in accordance with our Articles.

Board of Director Committees
 
Audit Committee
 
We have an Audit Committee, which recommends to the Board of Directors the engagement of our independent auditors and reviews with the independent auditors the scope and results of our audits, our internal accounting controls, and the professional services furnished to us by our independent auditors.  The following disclosure is required pursuant to National Instrument 52-110 (“NI 52-110”) adopted by the Canadian Securities Administrators.
 
The Audit Committee's Charter
 
Following is a copy of the charter of our audit committee:
 
Purpose
 
The Audit Committee (the “Committee”) is a committee of and appointed by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Jet Metal Corp. (the “Corporation”) to assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities relating to financial accounting and reporting process and internal controls for the Corporation. The Committee’s primary duties and responsibilities are to:
 
 
·
conduct such reviews and discussions with management and the external auditors relating to the audit and financial reporting as are deemed appropriate by the Committee;
 
·
assess the integrity of internal controls and financial reporting procedures of the Corporation and ensure implementation of such controls and procedures;
 
·
ensure that there is an appropriate standard of corporate conduct including, if necessary, adopting a corporate code of ethics for senior financial personnel;
 
·
review the quarterly and annual financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis of the Corporation’s financial position and operating results and report thereon to the Board for approval of same;
 
·
select and monitor the independence and performance of the Corporation’s external auditors, including attending at private meetings with the external auditors and reviewing and approving all renewals or dismissals of the external auditors and their remuneration;
 
·
establish procedures for the receipt of complaints and submissions relating to accounting matters;


 
46

 

 
·
except as set forth below, pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the Corporation’s external auditors; and
 
·
provide oversight to related party transactions entered into by the Corporation.
 
The Committee has the authority to conduct or authorize any investigation appropriate to its responsibilities, and it may request the external auditors, as well as any officer of the Corporation, or outside counsel for the Corporation, to attend a meeting of the Committee or to meet with any members of, or advisors to, the Committee to provide pertinent information as necessary.  The Committee shall have unrestricted access to the books and records of the Corporation and has the authority to retain, at the expense of the Corporation, special legal, accounting, or other consultants or experts to assist in the performance of the Committee’s duties.
 
The Committee shall review and assess the adequacy of this Charter annually and submit any proposed revisions to the Board for approval.
 
In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Committee will carry out the specific duties set out in Part IV of this Charter.
 
Authority of the Audit Committee
 
The Committee shall have the authority to:
 
(a)           engage independent counsel and other advisors as it determines necessary to carry out its duties;
 
(b)           set and pay the compensation for advisors employed by the Committee;
 
(c)           communicate directly with the internal and external auditors.
 
Composition and Meetings
 
 
1.
The Committee and its membership shall meet all applicable legal, regulatory and listing requirements, including, without limitation, those of the British Columbia Securities Commission, the TSX Venture Exchange, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, OTCQB, the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and all applicable securities regulatory authorities.
 
 
2.
The Committee shall be composed of three or more directors as shall be designated by the Board from time to time. The members of the Committee shall appoint from among themselves a member who shall serve as Chair.
 
 
3.
Each member of the Committee shall be “independent” and “financially literate”, for the purposes of Multilateral Instrument 52-110 (“MI 52-110”), as it may be amended from time to time.  MI 52-110 currently provides that a member is independent if the member has no direct or independent material relationship with the Corporation.  A “material” relationship is one which could, in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a member’s judgment. There are certain relationships that are, however, deemed to be “material” under MI 52-110.  In assessing a proposed nominee to the Committee, the Board shall refer to MI 52-110 and any other requirements or guidelines under applicable securities laws and any stock exchanges on which the Corporation’s securities are listed.
 
 
4.
The Committee shall meet at least quarterly, at the discretion of the Chair or a majority of its members, as circumstances dictate or as may be required by applicable legal or listing requirements. A minimum of two and at least 50% of the members of the Committee present either in person or by telephone shall constitute a quorum.
 
 
5.
If within one hour of the time appointed for a meeting of the Committee, a quorum is not present, the meeting shall stand adjourned to the same hour on the next business day following the date of such meeting at the same place. If at the adjourned meeting a quorum as hereinbefore specified is
 
 

 
47

 

 
not present within one hour of the time appointed for such adjourned meeting, such meeting shall stand adjourned to the same hour on the second business day following the date of such meeting at the same place. If at the second adjourned meeting a quorum as hereinbefore specified is not present, the quorum for the adjourned meeting shall consist of the members then present.
 
 
6.
If and whenever a vacancy shall exist, the remaining members of the Committee may exercise all of its powers and responsibilities so long as a quorum remains in office.
 
 
7.
The time and place at which meetings of the Committee shall be held, and procedures at such meetings, shall be determined from time to time by, the Committee. A meeting of the Committee may be called by letter, telephone, facsimile, email or other communication equipment, by giving at least 48 hours notice, provided that no notice of a meeting shall be necessary if all of the members are present either in person or by means of conference telephone or if those absent have waived notice or otherwise signified their consent to the holding of such meeting.
 
 
8.
Any member of the Committee may participate in the meeting of the Committee by means of conference telephone or other communication equipment, and the member participating in a meeting pursuant to this paragraph shall be deemed, for purposes hereof, to be present in person at the meeting.
 
 
9.
The Committee shall keep minutes of its meetings which shall be submitted to the Board. The Committee may, from time to time, appoint any person who need not be a member, to act as a secretary at any meeting.
 
 
10.
The Committee may invite such officers, directors and employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries as the Committee may see fit, from time to time, to attend at meetings of the Committee.
 
 
11.
Any matters to be determined by the Committee shall be decided by a majority of votes cast at a meeting of the Committee called for such purpose. Actions of the Committee may be taken by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by all of the members of the Committee, and such actions shall be effective as though they had been decided by a majority of votes cast at a meeting of the Committee called for such purpose. All decisions or recommendations of the Committee shall require the approval of the Board prior to implementation.
 
The Committee members will be elected annually at the first meeting of the Board following the annual general meeting of shareholders.

ITEM 7.
 MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
7.A.           Major Shareholders
 
To the knowledge of management, no person beneficially owns 5% or more of our issued and outstanding common shares.
 
All of our shares, both, issued and unissued, are common shares of the same class and rank equally as to dividends, voting powers and participation of powers.  Accordingly, there are no special voting powers held by our major shareholders.
 
On August 18, 2014, we had 6,578,035 common shares issued and outstanding to approximately 251 shareholders of record.  We believe that the number of beneficial owners is substantially greater than the number of record holders because a large portion of our outstanding common shares are held in broker “street” names for the benefit of individual investors or other nominees.  Management believes that there are 71 shareholders of record located in the U.S., who own an aggregate of approximately 44.45% of our outstanding common shares.  In addition to these record holders there may be more persons located in the U.S. holding our common shares in “street” name.
 
We are a publicly owned Canadian corporation, with shareholders in Canada, the United States and other foreign jurisdictions.  We are not controlled by any foreign government or other person.  We are not aware of any arrangements that would result in a change of control of our company.

The discussion under this heading summarizes the principal Canadian federal income tax consequences of acquiring, holding and disposing of shares of our common stock for a shareholder who at all relevant times, for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Canadian Tax Act”) and the Canada-United States Tax Convention (1980), as amended (the "Convention") (i) is not resident or deemed to be resident in Canada nor has not been or deemed to have been a resident in Canada, but is a resident of the U.S., (ii) is a "qualifying person" for the purposes of the Convention, (iii) deals at arm's length and is not affiliated with us, and (iv) will acquire and hold our common shares as capital property for the purposes of the Canadian Tax Act.  Generally, our common shares will be considered to be capital property to the shareholder provided the shareholder does not hold the common shares in the course of carrying on a business of trading or dealing in securities and has not acquired them in one or more transactions considered to be an adventure or concern in the nature of trade.
 
This summary does not apply to a shareholder who uses or holds, or is deemed to use or hold, its shares in our Company in connection with carrying on a business in Canada, or to a shareholder that is either an insurer carrying on business in Canada and elsewhere or an “authorized foreign bank” as defined in the Canadian Tax Act.  This summary is based on the current provisions of the Canadian Tax Act, the regulations thereunder in force as of the date hereof (the “Regulations”), all proposals to amend the Canadian Tax Act or the Regulations publicly announced by the federal Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the “Tax Proposals”), and an understanding of the current published administrative practices of the Canada Revenue Agency.
 
This summary is not exhaustive of all Canadian federal income tax considerations applicable to a shareholder of our company and, except for the Tax Proposals, this summary does not take into account or anticipate any changes in the Canadian Tax Act, the Regulations or the administrative or assessing policies of the Canada Revenue Agency, whether by legislative, governmental or judicial decisions or action, nor does this summary take into account provincial, territorial or other foreign tax legislation or considerations, which may differ significantly from those discussed herein.  There can be no assurance that the Tax Proposals will be enacted in the form proposed, or at all.
 
This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor should it be considered to be, legal or tax advice to any particular shareholder.  The tax consequences to any particular shareholder will depend on a variety of factors including the shareholder’s own particular circumstances.  Therefore, all shareholders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to their own particular circumstances.
 
The provisions of the Canadian Tax Act are subject to income tax treaties to which Canada is a party, including the Convention.
 
Dividends on Common Shares
 
Under the Canadian Tax Act, a non-resident of Canada is generally subject to Canadian withholding tax at the rate of 25% on dividends paid (including dividends deemed to have been paid) or credited to him or her by a corporation resident in Canada.  We are responsible for withholding this tax at the source. The Convention generally limits the rate of withholding tax on dividends to 15% of the gross amount of such dividends paid to shareholders or, if the shareholder is a company that beneficially owns at least 10% of the voting stock of the payor corporation, 5% of the gross amount of the dividends.
 
The Convention generally exempts from Canadian income tax dividends paid to a religious, scientific, literary, educational or charitable organization or to an organization constituted and operated exclusively to administer a
 


 
61

 

pension, retirement or employee benefit fund or plan, if the organization is a resident of the U.S. and is exempt from income tax under the laws of the U.S.
 
Dispositions of Common Shares
 
Under the Canadian Tax Act, a taxpayer’s capital gain or capital loss from a disposition of a share of our common shares is the amount, if any, by which his or her proceeds of disposition exceed (or are exceeded by, respectively) the aggregate of his or her adjusted cost base of the share and reasonable expenses of disposition.  The capital gain or loss must be computed in Canadian currency using a weighted average adjusted cost base for identical properties.  One half of capital gains net of one half of any capital losses are included in income.  The amount by which a shareholder’s capital loss exceeds the capital gain in a year may be deducted from a capital gain realized by the shareholder in the three previous years or any subsequent year, subject to certain restrictions in the case of a corporate shareholder.
 
Under the Canadian Tax Act, a non-resident of Canada is subject to Canadian tax on taxable capital gains, and may deduct allowable capital losses, realized on a disposition of “taxable Canadian property”.  Shares of our common stock will constitute taxable Canadian property of a shareholder at a particular time the common shares listed on a “designated stock exchange” (which includes the TSX-V and OTCQB) and if at any time in the five years immediately preceding the disposition (i)  25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series in our capital stock were owned by a shareholder, persons with whom the shareholder did not deal at arm's length or the shareholder together with all such persons and (ii) more than 50% of the fair market value of the common shares was derived, directly or indirectly, from one or any combination of real or immovable property situated in Canada,  Canadian resource properties, timber resource properties or options in respect of, or interests in, or for civil law rights in, such properties.  Common shares used in carrying on business in Canada and acquired in certain circumstances will also constitute taxable Canadian property.
 
The Convention generally relieves U.S. residents who qualify for benefit thereunder from liability for Canadian tax on capital gains derived on a disposition of shares unless the value of the shares is derived principally from real property situated in Canada, including the right to explore for or exploit natural resources and rights to amounts computed by reference to production.
 
Shareholders should consult their own advisors with respect to the application of the Convention.
 
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
 
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
 
The following is a discussion of material U.S. federal income tax consequences generally applicable to a U.S. Holder (as hereinafter defined) of our common shares under current law.  This discussion does not address all potentially relevant federal income tax matters and it does not address consequences peculiar to persons subject to special provisions of federal income tax law, such as those described below as excluded from the definition of a U.S. Holder.  In addition, this discussion does not cover any state, local or foreign tax consequences.  Accordingly, holders and prospective holders of our common shares are urged to consult their own tax advisors about the specific federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences to them of purchasing, owning and disposing of our common shares, based upon their individual circumstances.
 
The following discussion is based upon the Code, Treasury Regulations, published Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) rulings, published administrative positions of the IRS and court decisions that are currently applicable, any or all of which could be materially and adversely changed, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time and which are subject to differing interpretations. This discussion does not consider the potential effects, both adverse and beneficial, of any proposed legislation which, if enacted, could be applied, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time.

U.S. Holders
 
As used in this annual report, a “U.S. Holder” means a holder of our common shares who is a citizen or individual resident of the United States, a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or of any political subdivision thereof or an entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or of any political subdivision thereof which has elected to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes (under Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3), an estate whose income is taxable in the U.S. irrespective of source or a trust subject to the primary supervision of a court within the U.S. and control of a U.S. fiduciary as described in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code.  This summary does not address the tax consequences to, and the term U.S. Holder does not include, persons subject to specific provisions of federal income tax law, such as tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts and other tax-deferred accounts, financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, broker-dealers, non-resident alien individuals, persons or entities that have a “functional currency” other than the U.S. dollar, shareholders subject to the alternative minimum tax, shareholders who hold common shares as part of a straddle, hedging or conversion transaction, and shareholders who acquired their common shares through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for services.  This summary is limited to U.S. Holders who own common shares as capital assets, within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code, and who own (directly and indirectly, pursuant to applicable rules of constructive ownership) no more than 5% of the value of our total outstanding stock.  This summary does not address the consequences to a person or entity holding an interest in a shareholder or the consequences to a person of the ownership, exercise or disposition of any options, warrants or other rights to acquire common shares. In addition, this summary does not address special rules applicable to U.S. persons (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) holding common shares through a foreign partnership or to foreign persons holding common shares through a domestic partnership.
 
Distributions on Our Common Shares
 
Subject to the PFIC and CFC rules discussed below, in general U.S. Holders receiving dividend distributions (including constructive dividends) with respect to our common shares are required to include in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes the gross amount of such distributions (without reduction of any Canadian income or other tax withheld from such distributions), equal to the U.S. dollar value of such distributions on the date of receipt (based on the exchange rate on such date), to the extent that we have current or accumulated earnings and profits.  To the extent that distributions exceed our current or accumulated earnings and profits, they will be treated first as a return of capital up to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the common shares and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of property. Any Canadian or other non-U.S. tax withheld may be credited, subject to certain limitations, against the U.S. Holder’s federal income tax liability or, alternatively, may be deducted in computing the U.S. Holder’s federal taxable income by those who itemize deductions (See more detailed discussion at “Foreign Tax Credit” below). If we are not a PFIC, dividends received from us by a non-corporate U.S. Holder during taxable years beginning before January 1, 2013, generally will be taxed at a maximum rate of 15% provided that such U.S. Holder has held the shares for more than 60 days during the 120-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date and that certain other conditions are met (“qualified dividend income”).  For this purpose, dividends will include any distribution paid by us with respect to our common shares but only to the extent such distribution is not in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. Federal income tax principles. “Qualified dividend income” generally includes dividends paid on stock in U.S. corporations as well as dividends paid on stock in certain non-U.S. corporations that are not classified as PFICs if, among other things, (i) the shares of the non-U.S. corporation (including ADRs backed by such shares) are readily tradable on an established securities market in the U.S., or (ii) the non-U.S. corporation is eligible with respect to substantially all of its income for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the U.S. which contains an exchange of information program.   We currently anticipate that if we were to pay any dividends with respect to our shares when we have current or accumulated earnings and profits and if we are not a PFIC for such tax year, then to the extent of such earnings and profits the dividends should constitute “qualified dividend income” for U.S. federal income tax purposes and that non-corporate U.S. Holders should be entitled to the reduced rates of tax, as applicable.
 

 
63

 

In the case of foreign currency received as a dividend that is not converted by the recipient into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, a U.S. Holder will have a tax basis in the foreign currency equal to its U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt.  Generally any gain or loss recognized upon a subsequent sale or other disposition of the foreign currency, including the exchange for U.S. dollars, will be ordinary income or loss.
 
Dividends paid on our common shares will not generally be eligible for the dividends received deduction provided to corporations receiving dividends from certain United States corporations. The availability of this deduction is subject to several complex limitations that are beyond the scope of this discussion.
 
Disposition of Our Common Shares
 
Subject to the PFIC and CFC rules described below in general U.S. Holders will recognize gain or loss upon the sale of our common shares equal to the difference, if any, between (i) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received, and (ii) the shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in our common shares.  Subject to the PFIC and CFC rules described below, preferential tax rates apply to long-term capital gains of U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts.  In general, gain or loss on the sale of our common shares will be long-term capital gain or loss if our common shares are a capital asset in the hands of the U.S. Holder and are held for more than one year.  Deductions for net capital losses are subject to significant limitations.  
 
Passive Foreign Investment Company
 
We have not determined whether we meet the definition of a PFIC, within the meaning of Sections 1291 through 1298 of the Code, for the current tax year or for any prior tax year.  We may or may not be classified as a PFIC in subsequent years due to changes in our assets and business operations.  A U.S. Holder who holds stock in a non-U.S. corporation during any year in which such corporation qualifies as a PFIC is subject to numerous special U.S. federal income taxation rules.  The following is a general discussion of these special rules as they apply to U.S. Holders of our common shares.
 
Section 1297 of the Code defines a PFIC as a corporation that is not formed in the U.S. if, for any taxable year, either (i) 75% or more of its gross income is “passive income,” which includes interest, dividends and certain rents and royalties or (ii) the average percentage, of its assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income is 50% or more. The IRS has indicated in published positions that it considers working capital and cash held in reserve to be passive assets that produce passive income.
 
U.S. Holders owning shares of a PFIC are subject to a special tax and to an interest charge based on the value of deferral of U.S. tax attributable to undistributed earnings of a PFIC for the period during which the shares of the PFIC are owned.  This special tax would apply to any gain realized on the disposition of shares of a PFIC.  In addition, the gain is subject to U.S. federal income tax as ordinary income and taxed at top marginal rates, rather than as capital gain income.  The special tax would also apply on receipt of “excess distributions” (any distributions received in the current year that are in excess of 125% of the average distributions received during the 3 preceding years or, if shorter, the shareholder’s holding period).  However, if the U.S. Holder makes a timely election to treat a PFIC as a qualified electing fund (“QEF”) with respect to such shareholder’s interest therein, the above-described rules generally will not apply.  Instead, the electing U.S. Holder would include annually in his gross income his pro rata share of the PFIC’s ordinary earnings and any net capital gain regardless of whether such income or gain was actually distributed.  Special rules apply to U.S. Holders who own their interests in a PFIC through intermediate entities or persons. Generally, however, a QEF Election is not effective unless shareholders have sufficient information to determine their proportionate share of a corporation’s net capital gain and ordinary earnings and to comply with certain other requirements. We have not calculated these amounts for any shareholder, and do not anticipate making these calculations in the foreseeable future or providing information required under the QEF rules. Therefore, U.S. Holders of our common shares should consult their own financial advisor, legal counsel or accountant regarding the QEF election before making this election.
 
U.S. Holders who hold, actually or constructively, marketable stock of a foreign corporation that qualifies as a PFIC may elect to mark such stock to the market (a “mark-to-market election”).  If such an election is made, such U.S. Holder will not be subject to the PFIC special taxation rules described above for the taxable years for which
 


 
64

 

the mark-to-market election is made.  A U.S. Holder who makes such an election will include in income for the taxable year an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of our common shares as of the close of such tax year over such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such shares.  In addition, the U.S. Holder is allowed a deduction for the lesser of (i) the excess, if any, of such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the shares over the fair market value of such shares as of the close of the tax year, or (ii) the excess, if any of (A) the mark-to-market gains included by such U.S. Holder for prior tax years, including any amount which would have been included for any prior year but for the special PFIC rules discussed above with respect to a U.S. Holder who has not made a timely QEF election during the year in which he holds (or is deemed to have held) our common shares and the Company is a PFIC, over (B) the mark-to-market losses that were allowed as deductions for prior tax years.  A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in our common shares will be increased or decreased to reflect the amount included or deducted as a result of the mark-to-market election.  A mark-to-market election will apply to the tax year for which the election is made and to all later tax years, unless the PFIC stock ceases to be marketable or the IRS consents to the revocation of the election.
 
The IRS has issued proposed regulations that, subject to certain exceptions, would impose U.S. federal income tax on certain transfers of PFIC stock by a U.S. Holder that are generally not otherwise subject to income tax, such as gifts, exchanges pursuant to corporate reorganizations, and transfers at death. The transferee’s basis will depend on the manner of the transfer. The specific tax effect to the U.S. Holder and the transferee may vary based on the manner in which the common shares are transferred.  
 
The PFIC rules are very complex and fact-specific.  U.S. Holders should consult a tax advisor regarding the potential application of the PFIC rules to his, her or its specific situation.
 
Controlled Foreign Corporation
 
If more than 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares entitled to vote or the total value of our common shares is owned, actually or constructively, by citizens or residents of the United States, U.S. domestic partnerships or corporations, or estates or trusts other than foreign estates or trusts (as defined by Code Section 7701(a)(31)), each of which owns, actually or constructively, 10% or more of our total combined voting power of all classes of shares entitled to vote (“U.S. Shareholder”), we would be treated as a controlled foreign corporation (“CFC”) under Subpart F of the Code.  This classification would result in numerous complexities and potentially adverse U.S. tax consequences for a U.S. Holder, one of which is the inclusion by the U.S. shareholders of certain income of a CFC which is subject to current U.S. tax. Such U.S. Shareholders are generally treated as having received a current distribution out of the CFC’s Subpart F income (regardless of whether we make an actual distribution) and are also subject to current U.S. tax on their pro rata shares of increases in the CFC’s earnings invested in U.S. property.  Because of the complexity of Subpart F, a more detailed review of these rules is outside of the scope of this discussion.  We do not believe that we currently are classified as a CFC.  However, there can be no assurance that we will not be considered a CFC for the current or any future taxable year.
 
Foreign Tax Credit.
 
A U.S. Holder who pays (or has withheld from distributions) Canadian or other foreign income tax with respect to the ownership of our common shares may be entitled, at the option of the U.S. Holder, to either receive a deduction or a tax credit for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to such foreign tax paid or withheld. There are significant and complex limitations that apply to the foreign tax credit, among which is the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of the U.S. Holder’s U.S. income tax liability that the U.S. Holder’s "foreign source" income bears to his, her or its worldwide taxable income. In applying this limitation, the various items of income and deduction must be classified as either "foreign source" or "U.S. source." Complex rules govern this classification process.
 
In addition, U.S. Holders that are corporations and that own 10% or more of our voting stock may be entitled to an "indirect" foreign tax credit under Section 902 of the Code with respect to the payment of dividends by us under certain circumstances, subject to complex rules and limitations. The availability of the foreign tax credit and the application of the limitations with respect to the foreign tax credit are fact-specific, and each U.S. Holder of
 

 
65

 

our common shares should consult his, her or its own financial advisor, legal counsel or accountant regarding the foreign tax credit rules.
 
Information Reporting; Backup Withholding.
 
Certain information reporting and backup withholding rules may apply with respect to certain payments related to our common shares. In particular, a payor or middleman within the U.S., or in certain cases outside the U.S., will be required to undertake backup withholding at a current rate of 28% (which rate is scheduled for periodic adjustment) of any payments to a U.S. Holder by the Company, if a U.S. Holder fails to furnish its correct taxpayer identification number (generally on Form W-9) or otherwise fails to comply with, or establish an exemption from, the backup withholding tax requirements. Any amounts withheld under the U.S. backup withholding tax rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against the U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is furnished to the IRS. U.S. Holders should consult their own financial advisor, legal counsel or accountant regarding the information reporting and backup withholding rules applicable to our common shares.
 
Recent Legislative Developments
 
Recent U.S. legislation requires certain U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts to pay up to an additional 3.8% tax on, among other things, dividends and capital gains for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012.  In addition, the Company may require U.S. Holders to provide certain tax and reporting information necessary for the Company to comply with new IRS reporting obligations. If a U.S. Holder does not provide such information, the U.S. Holder will generally be subject to U.S. withholding tax on payments made by the Company after January 1, 2013 in accordance with this new legislation.

ITEM 11.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Currency Exchange Rate Sensitivity
 
The results of our operations are subject to currency translation risk and currency transaction risk. Regarding currency translation risk, our operating results and financial position are reported in Canadian dollars in our
 


 
66

 

consolidated financial statements. We incur certain costs in U.S. dollars. The fluctuation of the U.S. dollar in relation to the Canadian dollar will therefore have an impact upon our profitability and may also affect the value of our assets and the amount of shareholders’ equity.
 
In regards to transaction risk, our functional currency is the Canadian dollar and our activities are predominantly executed using the Canadian dollar. We incur a relatively small portion of our expenses in U.S. dollars. To date, we have completed all of our equity financing in Canadian dollars. We have not entered into any agreements or purchased any instruments to hedge any possible currency risks at this time due to the small amount of exposure.
 
Interest Rate Sensitivity
 
We currently have no short term or long term debt requiring interest payments. As a result, we have not entered into any agreement or purchased any instrument to hedge against possible interest rate risks at this time.
 
Commodity Price Sensitivity
 
Our future revenue and profitability will be dependent, to a significant extent, upon prevailing spot market prices for metals. In the past, metal prices have been volatile. Prices are subject to wide fluctuations in response to changes in supply of and demand for metals, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control. Our mineral properties are in the exploration phase and accordingly we are not generating any operating revenues and are therefore not subject to any short term volatility in the prices of metals. As we are in the exploration phase, the above factors have had no material impact on operations or income. We have not entered into any futures or forward contracts.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
At the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) was carried out by our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded as of the end of the period covered by this report that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that our disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover every situation involving the failure of persons within our company and our subsidiaries to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in our periodic reports.  Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of company level internal controls over financial reporting on a risk based approach using elements of the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Based on management’s assessment and those criteria, management believes that the internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2014 was effective.

Management’s internal control report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
Other than those described elsewhere in this Form 20-F, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal year ended April 30, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  Nor were there any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls requiring corrective actions.
 
 
ITEM 16A. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT

CODE OF ETHICS
 
We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to our chief executive officer, the chief financial officer, and other members of senior management. As adopted, the Code of Ethics sets forth standards that are designed to prevent wrongdoing and to promote:
 
 
·
honesty and integrity, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
 
 
·
full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the SEC and in other public communications made by us;
 
 
·
compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
 
 
·
protection of and respect for the confidentiality of information acquired in the course of work;
 
 
·
responsible use of and control over assets and resources;
 
 
·
the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Ethics to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code of Ethics; and
 
 
·
accountability for adherence to the Code of Ethics.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures:
 
All services to be performed by our auditor must be approved in advance by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of services other than audit services is compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence and has adopted a policy governing the provision of these services. This policy requires the pre-approval by the Audit Committee of all audit and non-audit services provided by the external auditor, other than any de minimis non-audit services allowed by applicable law or regulation.
 
Pre-approval from the Audit Committee can be sought for planned engagements based on budgeted or committed fees. No further approval is required to pay pre-approved fees. Additional pre-approval is required for any increase in scope or in final fees.
 
Of the total aggregate fees paid by the Company to its accountants during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2014, $nil, or 0% of the aggregate fees, were approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to the de minimis exception provided by Section (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



To the Shareholders and Directors of
Jet Metal Corp.
(formerly Crosshair Energy Corporation)


We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Jet Metal Corp. (formerly Crosshair Energy Corporation), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of April 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, cash flows and changes in equity, for the years ended April 30, 2014 and 2013 and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.  We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.  The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.  In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control.  An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Jet Metal Corp. (formerly Crosshair Energy Corporation) as at April 30, 2014 and 2013 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years ended April 30, 2014 and 2013 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Emphasis of Matter

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1 in the consolidated financial statements which indicate that Jet Metal Corp. (formerly Crosshair Energy Corporation) has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency.  These matters, along with the other matters set forth in Note 1, indicate the existence of material uncertainties that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
APRIL 30, 2014
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)




 
1.   NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
 
Jet Metal Corp. (formerly Crosshair Energy Corporation) (the "Company" or “Jet Metal”) is an exploration stage company whose common shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange and the OTC Markets Group’s OTCQB Marketplace.  The Company voluntarily delisted its common shares from the NYSE MKT and its common shares were transferred to and began trading July 1, 2013 on the OTC Markets Group’s OTCQB Marketplace.  Subsequently, the Company voluntarily delisted its common shares from the Toronto Stock Exchange and its common shares were transferred to and began trading January 20, 2014 on the TSX Venture Exchange.

During the year ended April 30, 2014, the Company consolidated its common shares on the basis of one post-consolidated share for every ten pre-consolidated common shares held (Note 9). All references to share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect this share consolidation.

The Company is in the business of acquiring, exploring and evaluating mineral resource properties, and either joint venturing or developing these properties further or disposing of them when the evaluation is completed.  The Company is incorporated under the laws of British Columbia. All of the Company’s resource properties are currently located in North America. The address of the Company’s registered office is #1240 – 1140 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6E 4G1.

The Company is in the process of exploring and evaluating its exploration and evaluation assets and has not yet determined whether the properties contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable.  The recoverability of the amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets are dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to complete the development of those reserves and upon future profitable production.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The continuing operations of the Company are dependent upon its ability to continue to raise adequate financing and to commence profitable operations in the future.

These consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and statement of financial position classifications that would be necessary were the going concern assumption deemed to be inappropriate.  These adjustments could be material.

As at April 30, 2014, the Company had a working capital deficit of $716,619 (2013 – working capital of $94,253) and a deficit of $106,993,193 (2013 – $103,025,910).  At present the Company has no producing properties and consequently has no current operating income or cash flows. Without additional financing, the Company will not be able to fund both its exploration programs and ongoing operations for the next 12 months. The Company intends to finance its future requirements through a combination of debt and/or equity issuance. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such financings or obtain them on favorable terms. These material uncertainties raise substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

2.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

a)   Significant accounting judgements and estimates
 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions.  These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, shareholders’ equity, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as at the date of the financial statements, and expenses for the years reported.

2.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)

a)   Significant accounting judgements and estimates (continued)

Critical Judgements

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements regarding the going concern of the Company, as previously discussed in Note 1, as well as the determination of functional currency. The functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which an entity operates, and has been determined for each entity within the Company. The functional currency for the Company and its subsidiaries has been determined to be the Canadian dollar.

Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty

Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be significant.

Significant estimates made by management affecting the consolidated financial statements include:

Share-based Payments

Estimating fair value for granted stock options and compensatory warrants requires determining the most appropriate valuation model which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the option or warrant, volatility, dividend yield, and rate of forfeitures and making assumptions about them.

Deferred Tax Assets & Liabilities

The estimation of income taxes includes evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets and liabilities based on an assessment of the Company’s ability to utilize the underlying future tax deductions against future taxable income prior to expiry of those deductions. Management assesses whether it is probable that some or all of the deferred income tax assets and liabilities will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets and liabilities is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income, which in turn is dependent upon the successful discovery, extraction, development and commercialization of mineral reserves. To the extent that management’s assessment of the Company’s ability to utilize future tax deductions changes, the Company would be required to recognize more or fewer deferred tax assets or liabilities, and deferred income tax provisions or recoveries could be affected.

Recoverability of Exploration & Evaluation Assets

The Company is in the process of exploring and evaluating its exploration and evaluation assets and has not yet determined whether the properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable.  The recoverability of  the amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets are dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable mineral reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to complete the development of those mineral reserves and upon future production or proceeds from the disposition thereof.

Useful Life of Equipment

Equipment is depreciated over its estimated useful life. Estimated useful lives are determined based on current facts and past experience, and take into consideration the anticipated physical life of the asset, the potential for technological obsolescence, and regulations.

a)   Significant accounting judgements and estimates (continued)

Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty (continued)

Future Reclamation Provision

The Company assesses its provision for reclamation related to its exploration and evaluation activities at each reporting period or when new material information becomes available. Accounting for reclamation obligations requires management to make estimates of the future costs that will be incurred to complete the reclamation to comply with existing laws and regulations. Actual future costs that will be incurred may differ from those amounts estimated as a result of changes to environmental laws and regulations, timing of future cash flows, changes to future costs, technical advances, and other factors. In addition, the actual work required may prove to be more extensive than estimated because of unexpected geological or other technical factors. The measurement of the present value of the future obligation is dependent on selection of suitable discount rate and the estimate of future cash outflows. Changes to either of these estimates may materially affect the present value calculation of the obligation.

 
b)   Approval of the consolidated financial statements

The consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended April 30, 2014 were reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on August 22, 2014.

 
c)   Basis of presentation

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries, and have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss, and available-for-sale, which are stated at their fair value. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for certain cash flow information.

 
d)   Statement of compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Boards (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).

 
e)   Basis of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Target Exploration and Mining Corp. (“Target”), Crosshair Energy USA, Inc. (“Crosshair USA”), Gemini Metals Corp. (“Gemini”) as well as The Bootheel Project LLC (“BHP LLC”) in which the Company has a 81% interest. A wholly owned subsidiary is an entity in which the Company has control, directly or indirectly, where control is defined as the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an enterprise so as to obtain benefits from its activities. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

3.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash, demand deposits and highly liquid interest bearing investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
 
Financial Instruments
 
All financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the statement of financial position. The Company has classified each financial instrument into one of the following categories: (1) financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”), (2) loans and receivables, (3) financial assets available-for-sale, (4) financial assets held-to maturity, and (5) other financial liabilities. Subsequent measurement of financial instruments is based on their classification.

Financial assets and liabilities at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in those fair values recognized in net earnings. Financial assets “available-for-sale” are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax.

Financial assets “held-to-maturity”, “loans and receivables”, and “other financial liabilities” are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are recorded and measured as follows:

The Company determines the fair value of financial instruments according to the following hierarchy based on the amount of observable inputs used to value the instrument.

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
 
Financial Instruments (continued)
 
 
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1. Prices in Level 2 are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 valuations are based on inputs, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value and volatility factors, which can be substantially observed or corroborated in the marketplace.
 
Level 3 – Valuations in this level are those with inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

Cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities have been measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs.

Exploration and Evaluation Assets

Costs incurred before the Company has obtained the legal rights to explore an area are expensed. Costs to acquire exploration and evaluation assets are capitalized as incurred. Costs related to the exploration and evaluation of exploration and evaluation assets are expensed as incurred. The Company considers mineral rights to be assets and accordingly, the Company capitalizes certain costs related to the acquisition of mineral rights. The Company considers each exploration and evaluation asset to be a separate cash generating unit.
 
Any option payments received by the Company from third parties or tax credits refunded to the Company are credited to the capitalized cost of the exploration and evaluation asset or shown as an expense recovery depending on the nature of the activity generating the refund. If payments received exceed the capitalized cost of the exploration and evaluation asset, the excess is recognized as income in the year received. The amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets do not necessarily represent present or future values. Their recoverability is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development, and future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition thereof.
 
Future Reclamation Provisions

The Company recognizes liabilities for statutory, contractual, constructive or legal obligations associated with the retirement of reclamation of mineral interests (exploration and evaluation assets). The net present value of future rehabilitation cost estimates is capitalized to the related assets along with a corresponding increase in the reclamation provision in the period incurred. Discount rates using a pre-tax rate that reflects the time value of money are used to calculate the net present value.
 
The Company’s estimates of reclamation costs could change as a result of changes in regulatory requirements, discount rates and assumptions regarding the amount and timing of the future expenditures. These changes are recorded directly to the related assets with a corresponding entry to the reclamation provision. The Company’s estimates are reviewed annually for changes in regulatory requirements, discount rates, effects of inflation and changes in estimates.
 
Changes in the net present value, excluding changes in the Company’s estimates of reclamation costs, are charged to profit or loss for the period.

Equipment
 
Equipment is carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
 
The cost of an item of equipment consists of the purchase price, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for its intended use and an initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of equipment, less its estimated residual value, using the declining balance method at the following rates per annum:

Impairment

At each financial position reporting date the carrying amounts of the Company’s long-lived assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets are impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment, if any. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use, which is the present value of future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and the impairment loss is recognized in the profit or loss for the period.

For the purposes of impairment testing, exploration and evaluation assets are allocated to cash-generating units to which the exploration activity relates. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Flow-Through Shares

Canadian income tax legislation permits an enterprise to issue securities referred to as flow-through shares, whereby the investor can claim the tax deductions arising from the renunciation of the related resource expenditures. The Company accounts for flow-through shares whereby the premium, if any, paid for the flow-through shares in excess of the market value of the shares without flow-through features at the time of issue is initially recorded to other liability and then included in income at the same time the qualifying expenditures are made.

Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
 
For diluted per share computations, assumptions are made regarding potential common shares outstanding during the period.  The weighted average number of common shares is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would be outstanding if, at the beginning of the period, or at time of issuance, if later, all options and warrants are exercised.  Proceeds from exercise are used to purchase the Company’s common shares at their average market price during the period, thereby reducing the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  If these computations prove to be anti-dilutive, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share.

Share-Based Payments

The Company grants stock options to buy common shares of the Company to directors, officers, employees and service providers. The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense based on the estimated fair value of the options. A fair value measurement is made for each vesting instalment within each option grant and is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the options is recognized over the vesting period of the options granted as both share-based compensation expense and reserves. This includes a forfeiture estimate, which is revised for actual forfeitures in subsequent periods. The reserves account is subsequently reduced if the options are exercised and the amount initially recorded is then credited to capital stock.

In situations where equity instruments are issued to non-employees and some or all of the goods or services received by the entity as consideration cannot be specifically identified, they are measured at the fair value of the share-based payment.  Otherwise, share-based payments are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Income Taxes

Income tax on profit or loss for the year comprises of current and deferred tax. Current tax is the expected tax paid or payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date, and any adjustment to tax paid or payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recorded by providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in income tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the date of the enactment or substantive enactment of the change. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are presented separately except where there is a right of set-off within fiscal jurisdictions.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar. The reporting currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar. Transactions denominated in foreign currency are translated into Canadian dollars at the rate of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies have been translated into Canadian dollars at the rate of exchange in effect at the statement of financial position date, while non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates. Revenue and expenses are translated at the exchange rates approximating those in effect on the date of the transactions. Any gains or losses resulting from translation have been included in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

The following accounting standards were adopted as of May 1, 2013 and did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Amendments to IFRS 7, Financial Instruments:  Disclosures (“IFRS 7”) introduces enhanced disclosure around the transfer of financial assets and associated risks.

In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements (“IFRS 10”), which builds on existing principles by identifying the concept of control as the determining factor in whether an entity should be included within the consolidated financial statements of a parent company. IFRS 10 also provides additional guidance to assist in the determination of control where this is difficult to assess.

In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements (“IFRS 11”), which enhances accounting for joint arrangements, particularly by focusing on the rights and obligations of the arrangement, rather than the arrangement’s legal form. IFRS 11 also addresses inconsistencies in the reporting of joint arrangements by requiring a single method to account for interests in jointly controlled entities and prohibits proportionate consolidation.
 
 
In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 12, Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities (“IFRS 12”), which is a comprehensive standard on disclosure requirements for all forms of interests in other entities, including joint arrangements, associates, special purpose vehicles and other off-balance sheet vehicles.
 
In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement (“IFRS 13”), which defines fair value, sets out in a single IFRS a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. IFRS 13 does not determine when an asset, a liability or an entity’s own equity instrument is measured at fair value. Rather, the measurement and disclosure requirements of IFRS 13 apply when another IFRS requires or permits the item to be measured at fair value (with limited exceptions).

New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted (continued)

In June 2011, the IASB amended IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”), to change the disclosure of items presented in other comprehensive income into two groups, based on whether those items may be recycled to profit or loss in the future.

Amendments to IAS 27, Separate Financial Statements (“IAS 27”), and IAS 28, Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (“IAS 28”) have been made. IAS 27 addresses accounting for subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates in non-consolidated financial statements. IAS 28 has been amended to include joint ventures in its scope and to address the changes in IFRS 10-13.

New Accounting Pronouncements

The following accounting pronouncements have been made, but are not yet effective for the Company as at April 30, 2014.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these amended standards on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2009 and October 2010, the IASB issued IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”), which represents the completion of the first part of a three-part project to replace IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, with a new standard. Per the new standard, an entity choosing to measure a liability at fair value will present the portion of the change in its fair value due to changes in the entity’s own credit risk in the other comprehensive income or loss section of the entity’s statement of comprehensive loss, rather than within profit or loss. Additionally, IFRS 9 includes revised guidance related to the derecognition of financial instruments. IFRS 9 applies to financial statements for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted.

Amendments to IAS 32, Financial Instruments:  Presentation, are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014.  This provides for amendments relating to offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities.

Comparative Figures

Certain comparative figures have been reclassified in accordance with the current year’s presentation.

Central Mineral Belt (“CMB”)
 
Moran Lake Property
 
Pursuant to an agreement dated October 14, 2004, the Company acquired an option to earn a 90% interest, subject to a 2% net smelter royalty (“NSR”) and a 10% carried interest to the vendor, in the Moran Lake Property, a uranium prospect located in Central Labrador, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.  The agreement was amended on March 1, 2005 to include additional claims adjacent to the Moran Lake Property, known as Moran Heights.
 
The Company previously issued 40,000 common shares, made cash payments totaling $575,000 and spent more than the required minimum $3,000,000 on project expenditures.  In connection with the option agreement to earn its 90% interest in the Moran Lake Property, the Company was involved in a dispute with the original vendor of the Moran Lake Property, Mr. Murphy, regarding the timing of advance royalty payments. On December 5, 2011, the Company settled the litigation. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company made a cash payment of $600,000 and issued 119,361 common shares. All litigation was discontinued and Mr. Murphy acknowledged that the Company’s 90% interest in the CMB Uranium/Vanadium Project vested and any requirement for a bankable feasibility study was irrevocably waived. The Company was required to make advance royalty payments of $200,000 per year commencing in November 2012.  Accordingly, the Company paid an advance royalty payment of $200,000 in November 2012.  Had the Company brought the Moran Lake Property into production, the advance royalty payments would have been deducted against any NSR owed to the original vendor of the property.

Moran Lake Property (continued)
 
On November 1, 2013, the Company exercised its right to abandon those mineral claims that form the Moran Lake Property and terminated the related agreement to discharge the Company from any further obligations with respect to the Moran Lake Property.  As a result, the Company recorded an impairment of $2,484,868 to operations during the year ended April 30, 2014.
 
Otter/Portage Lake Property
 
Pursuant to an agreement dated December 2, 2005, the Company acquired a 100% interest, subject to a 1.5% NSR, in the Otter and Portage Lake Properties located in the Central Mineral Belt of Labrador.
 
During the year ended April 30, 2014, the Company abandoned these properties and recorded an impairment of $675,750 to operations in relation to the Otter and Portage Lake Properties.
 
Silver Spruce Property Amalgamation
 
 
In July 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with Expedition Mining Inc. ("Expedition"), formally known as Universal Uranium Ltd., and acquired all of Expedition's interest (60%) in its joint venture project with Silver Spruce Resources Inc. in Labrador. Currently the Company has a 100% interest in the property subject to a 2% net smelter royalty payable to Silver Spruce and a 2% net smelter royalty payable to Expedition Mining Inc. on 60% of any production from the Silver Spruce Property.
 
Bootheel Project

On March 31, 2009, the Company acquired an interest in the Bootheel and Buckpoint Properties in Wyoming, USA through the acquisition of Target. Under a series of agreements between UR-Energy USA Inc. (“URE”), several of its subsidiaries, Target and Crosshair USA, a wholly owned subsidiary of Target, the Company could earn a 75% interest in BHP LLC, subject to certain royalties, by completing expenditures totalling US $3,000,000 on or before June 7, 2011. The Company made these expenditures, and additional expenditures, which increased its holdings to 81%. The Company, through Target, has earned a 81% interest in BHP LLC, representing a 81% interest in the underlying Bootheel and Buckpoint Properties.
 
 
Under agreements dated February 5, 2008 between MJ Ranches Inc. and Crosshair USA as manager, BHP LLC leased MJ Ranches Inc.’s 75% ownership of certain minerals on fee land that adjoins the Bootheel Property.  The initial term of the agreement was for five years with provision for two renewals.  Payment for the initial five year term was US $252,651 paid in advance, increased for inflation for the renewal periods.  The acquired mineral rights were subject to a sliding scale royalty tied to the sales price of uranium. The “Uranium Lease and Surface and Damage Agreement” and “Surface Impact Agreement” expired in February 2013.  On June 7, 2013, the Company announced that BHP LLC has been unable to reach an agreement with MJ Ranches Inc. on terms which more accurately reflect current market conditions.  Certain portions of the mineral resources included in the Technical Report issued by the Company, dated October 27, 2012, are located on those lands which were subject to the mineral lease with MJ Ranches Inc.  Accordingly, during the year ended April 30, 2013, the Company recorded an impairment of $3,727,724 to operations.

Golden Promise
 
Golden Promise Property
 
 
On April 29, 2009, the Company acquired a 60% interest in the Golden Promise Gold Project in Central Newfoundland, Canada with an option to acquire an additional interest from Paragon Minerals Corp. (“Paragon”).

The Company was to provide Paragon with a $2,000,000 carried interest in initial exploration expenditures to be completed prior to May 2013. The Company could extend the timeframe to complete the initial exploration program by 12 months upon issuing 6,250 common shares to Paragon.

Upon the successful completion of the initial $2,000,000 exploration program, the Company could elect to earn an additional 10% interest (to 70%) in Golden Promise by providing Paragon with an additional $1,000,000 carried interest in additional exploration expenditures within 24 months.   The Company could extend the timeframe to complete the additional exploration program by 12 months upon issuing 2,500 common shares to Paragon.  In the event that the Company did not complete the additional expenditure program within the required timeframe, the Company could purchase the remaining 10% interest by paying Paragon the difference between actually incurred exploration expenditures and $1,000,000 or just retain the 60% interest.

 
On May 31, 2013, the Company and Paragon terminated the Golden Promise Option and Joint Venture Agreement and as a result, the Company recorded an impairment of $1,401,128 to operations during the year ended April 30, 2013.
 
Southern Golden Promise (Victoria Lake)
 
The Company had earned a 62.02% interest in mineral claims located in the Botwood Basin area of Central Newfoundland known as Southern Golden Promise in consideration for issuing a total of 10,000 common shares and incurring a minimum of $1,750,000 exploration expenditures within specified deadlines.
 
During the year ended April 30, 2014, the Company abandoned the Southern Golden Promise property.
 
Juniper Ridge Uranium Property

On October 29, 2010, the Company signed a definitive agreement with Strathmore Resources Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Strathmore Minerals Corp. (“Strathmore”), to acquire the Juniper Ridge Uranium Property.  In order to acquire this property, the Company was required to make cash payments totalling US$4,450,000 (US$450,000 has been paid), and issue shares with a total value of US$2,750,000 (US$250,000 in shares has been issued).

Title to the Juniper Ridge Property had been transferred to the Company by Strathmore upon making the initial payments of US$700,000 of which US$250,000 was paid by issuance of 55,251 common shares of the Company. On November 30, 2012, the Company announced that it terminated this agreement and as a result, $914,389 of the capitalized costs were written off to operations during the year ended April 30, 2013. The Company transferred the title to the Juniper Ridge Property back to Strathmore in February 2013.

 
Reclamation Bonds
 
As at April 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding reclamation bonds for the Bootheel Property and Juniper Ridge Property of US$25,800 (2013 - US$25,800) and $Nil (2013 - US$36,600), respectively, registered with the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality and State Office of Lands and Investment.
 
During the year ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded an impairment of reclamation bonds in the amount of $41,852 due to collectability concerns in relation to properties that have been abandoned.

14.   CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue the exploration and evaluation of its exploration and evaluation assets, acquire additional mineral property interests and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the costs of capital at an acceptable risk. In the management of capital, the Company includes its components of equity.

The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets.  To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares, issue debt, acquire or dispose of assets.

In order to maximize ongoing development efforts, the Company does not pay out dividends.  Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach is reasonable given the relative size of the Company.

The Company currently is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year.

15.   RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value of the Company’s receivables, payables and accrued liabilities, and due to related parties approximate carrying value, due to their short-term nature.  The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities are measured at fair value under the fair value hierarchy based on level one quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  The Company’s other financial instruments, being reclamation bonds, are measured at amortized cost.

15.   RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and price risk.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.

The Company is subject to credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents and receivables. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions. The Company has no investments in asset-backed commercial paper. The Company’s receivables consist mainly of Goods and Services Tax receivable due from the Government of Canada.  The Company does not believe it is exposed to significant credit risk

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.

The Company manages liquidity risk through its capital management as outlined in Note 14. The Company will require additional equity financing to meet its administrative overhead costs and further exploration activities on its exploration and evaluation assets in fiscal 2015.

Market Risk 

Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, commodity and equity prices, and foreign exchange rates.

(a) Interest rate risk
 
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.
 
The risk that the Company will realize a loss as a result of a decline in the fair value of any short-term investments included in cash and cash equivalents is minimal because these investments generally have a fixed yield rate.
 
(b) Price risk
 
The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity prices, particularly uranium, and equity prices, since the Company possesses investments in publicly traded securities.  The Company closely monitors those prices to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company. However, there can be no assurance that the Company can exit these positions if required, resulting in proceeds approximating the carrying value of these securities.
 
(c) Currency risk
 
The Company’s expenditures are predominantly in Canadian dollars, and any future equity raised is expected to be predominantly in Canadian dollars.  As at April 30, 2014, the Company has accounts payable denominated in US dollars of US$57,654, cash of US$1,321 and reclamation bonds of US$25,800.  A 10% change in the Canadian dollar versus the US dollar would give rise to a gain/loss of approximately $3,346.

At the request of any Participant, options granted to such Participant may be issued to and registered in the name of a personal holding company controlled by such Participant the shares of which are held directly by the Participant (“Holding Company”) or to a registered retirement savings plan established for the sole benefit of such Participant (“RRSP”) and, in such event, the provisions of this Plan shall apply to such options mutatis mutandis as though they were issued to and registered in the name of the Participant.
 
2.3           Maximum Number of Common Shares.  The number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to Options to purchase Common Shares granted pursuant to the Plan shall not in the aggregate exceed 10% of the Common Shares issued and outstanding at the time of any stock option grant, subject to any adjustments made pursuant to section 2.11.
 
2.4           Limitations on Stock Option Grants
 
 
(a)
Unless the Corporation obtains shareholder approval (which must be disinterested shareholder approval if required by the policies of the Exchange) the aggregate number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to options granted under the Plan, together with Common Shares issuable under any other Share Compensation Arrangement of the Corporation, shall not at any time exceed 10% of the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the grant of any such option.

Unless the Corporation obtains disinterested shareholder approval, the aggregate number of Common Shares issuable to any one individual (and where permitted, any companies that are wholly owned by that individual) shall not, within a one year period, exceed 5% of the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the grant of any such option.
 
2.5           Price.  The exercise price per Common Share shall be determined by the Board of Directors at the time the option is granted, but such price shall not be less than the closing price of the Common Shares on the Exchange on the last trading day preceding the date on which the grant of the option is approved by the Board of Directors. In the event that the Common Shares are not listed and posted for trading on any stock exchange or other quotation system, the exercise price shall be the fair market value of the Common Shares as determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion.
 
2.6           Vesting.  The issuance of options under the Plan will be subject to the vesting periods, if any, as determined by the Board of Directors in its discretion; provided, however, that any options issued to Consultants performing Investor Relations Activities must vest in stages over a period of not less than 12 months with no more than 1/4 of the options vesting in any three month period, or as otherwise required by the Exchange. No acceleration of vesting provisions will be permitted on any options issued to Consultants performing Investor Relations Activities without the prior approval of the Exchange.
 
2.7           Lapsed Options.  In the event that options granted under the Plan terminate or expire without being exercised in whole or in part in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the Common Shares reserved for issuance but not purchased under such lapsed options shall be available for subsequent options to be granted under the Plan.
 
2.8           Consideration, Option Period and Payment.
 
 
(a)
The period during which options may be exercised shall be determined by the Board of Directors, in its discretion, to a maximum of ten years from the date the option is granted (the “Option Period”), except as the Option Period may be extended with respect to any option that expires within a Blackout Period and except as the Option Period may be reduced with respect to any option as provided in Sections 2.9 and 2.10 hereof respecting termination of employment or death of the Participant or amended from time to time by the Board of Directors, in its discretion, subject to the approval of any stock exchange or regulatory requirements.

(c)
Subject to any other provision of this Plan, and in particular the vesting provisions set forth in Section 2.6 hereof, an option may be exercised from time to time during the Option Period, subject to vesting limitations by delivery to the Corporation at its registered office of a written notice of exercise addressed to the Secretary of the Corporation specifying the number of Common Shares with respect to which the option is being exercised and accompanied by payment in full of the exercise price therefor.

Absence on leave with the approval of the Corporation or a Designated Affiliate shall not be considered an interruption of employment for purposes of the Plan.
 
 
(e)
The exercise of any option will be contingent upon receipt by the Corporation of cash payment of the full exercise price of the Common Shares, which are the subject of the exercised option. No Participant or his or her legal representatives, legatees or distributees will be, or will be deemed to be, a holder of any Common Shares with respect to which he or she was granted an option under the Plan, unless and until certificates for such Common Shares are issued to him or her under the terms of the Plan.
 
 
(f)
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or in any option granted to a Participant, the Corporation shall not be obligated to issue or deliver Common Shares to a Participant upon the exercise of any option or take other actions under the Plan until the Corporation shall have determined that applicable federal and state laws, rules, and regulations have been complied with and such approvals of any stock exchange, regulatory or governmental agency have been obtained and contractual obligations to which the grant of the option exercisable for such Common Shares may be subject have been satisfied. In particular, the Corporation, in its discretion, may postpone the issuance or delivery of Common Shares under any option until:
 
 
(i)
completion of such stock exchange listing or registration or other qualification of such Common Shares or obtaining approval of such regulatory authorities as the Corporation shall determine to be necessary or advisable in connection with the authorization, issuance or sale thereof; and
 
 
(ii)
the receipt from the Participant of such information, representations, warranties, agreements and undertakings, including as to future dealings in such Common Shares, as the Corporation or its counsel determines to be necessary or advisable in order to ensure compliance with all applicable securities laws.
 
 
(g)
An option may be exercised at any time after the date the option has been granted, subject to any vesting provisions attaching thereto, up to 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the last day of the Option Period and shall not be exercisable thereafter.

2.13           Take-Over Bids and Changes of Control.
 
 
(a)
Effect of a Take-Over Bid.  If a bona fide offer (an “Offer”) for Common Shares is made to shareholders of the Corporation generally, which Offer, if accepted in whole or in part, would result in the offeror becoming a control person of the Corporation, within the meaning of subsection 1(1) of the Securities Act, the Corporation shall, immediately upon receipt of notice of the Offer, notify each Participant of full particulars of the Offer, whereupon all options will become fully vested and may be exercised in whole or in part by each Participant so as to permit the Participant to tender the Common Shares received upon such exercise, pursuant to the Offer.  However, if:
 
 
(i)
the Offer is not completed within the time specified therein; or
 
 
(ii)
all of the Common Shares tendered by the Participant pursuant to the Offer are not taken up or paid for by the offeror in respect thereof,
 
then, with the consent of the Corporation, the Common Shares received upon such exercise, or in the case of clause (ii) above, the Common Shares that are not taken up and paid for, may be returned by the Participant to the Corporation and reinstated as authorized but unissued Common Shares and the options with respect to such returned Common Shares, shall be reinstated as if they had not been exercised and the terms upon which such options were to become vested shall be reinstated. If any Common Shares are returned to the Corporation under this Section 2.13(a), the Corporation shall as soon as reasonably practicable refund the exercise price to the Participant for such Common Shares, net of any tax withholdings the Corporation was obliged to make pursuant to this Plan.  If a Participant wishes to exercise options under this Section 2.13(a) it must so notify the Corporation at the time of exercise and in such event, Common Shares issued upon exercise of such options must be tendered to the Offer.
 
 
(b)
Acceleration of Expiry Date.  If, at any time when an option granted under the Plan remains unexercised, an Offer is made by an offeror, the Board of Directors may in its sole discretion, upon notifying each Participant of full particulars of the Offer, declare all options granted under the Plan, vested, and declare that the expiry date for the exercise of all unexercised options granted under the Plan is accelerated so that all options will either be exercised or will expire prior to the date upon which Common Shares must be tendered pursuant to the Offer, provided such Offer is completed and, if not completed, the respective Expiry Dates of the options shall revert to the original Expiry Date.
 
 
(c)
Effect of a Change of Control. Unless otherwise provided for at the time a grant is made pursuant to this Plan and subject to any resolution of the Board of Directors, if there is a Change in Control, all options outstanding under the Plan shall vest immediately prior to such Change of Control to become immediately exercisable, whereupon such options may be exercised in whole or in part by any such Participant.
 
 
(d)
Compulsory Acquisition or Going Private Transaction.  If and whenever, following a take-over bid or an issuer bid, there shall be a compulsory acquisition of the Corporation's Common Shares pursuant to Division 6 of Part 9 of the Act or any successor or similar legislation, or any amalgamation, merger or arrangement in which securities acquired in a formal take-over bid may be voted under the conditions described in section 8.2 of Multilateral Instrument 61-101, Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions, then following the date upon which such compulsory acquisition, amalgamation, merger or arrangement is effective, a Participant shall be entitled to receive, and shall accept, for the same exercise price, in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which such Participant was theretofore entitled to purchase, the aggregate amount of cash, shares, or other securities or other property which such Participant would have been entitled to receive as a result of such bid if he or she had tendered such number of Common Shares to the bid, net of withholding taxes as contemplated by this Plan.

2.14           Record Keeping.  The Corporation shall maintain a register in which shall be recorded:
 
 
(a)
the name and address of each Participant in the Plan; and
 
 
(b)
the number of options granted to a Participant and the aggregate number of options outstanding, the exercise price and the expiry date thereof.
 
2.15           Option Agreements.  All options granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by written agreements between the Corporation and each Participant to whom options are granted hereunder in the form attached hereto as Appendix “A” and containing such terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be established by the Board of Directors, including the following:
 
 
(a)
subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.4 hereof, the number of options covered by any grant of options and the number of Common Shares which such options shall entitle the Participant the right to purchase;
 
 
(b)
subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.5, the price of the Common Shares covered by any option, stated and payable in Canadian dollars; and
 
 
(c)
subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.8, the Option Period.
 
2.16           Tax Withholding.  The Corporation may withhold from any amount payable to a Participant, either under this Plan or otherwise, such amount as may be necessary to enable the Corporation to comply with the applicable requirements of any federal, provincial, state or local law, or any administrative policy of any applicable tax authority, relating to the withholding of tax or any other required deductions with respect to grants hereunder (“Withholding Obligations”).  The Corporation shall also have the right in its discretion to satisfy any liability for any Withholding Obligations by selling, or causing a broker to sell, on behalf of any Participant such number of Shares issued to the Participant sufficient to fund the Withholding Obligations (after deducting commissions payable to the broker), or retaining any amount payable which would otherwise be delivered, provided or paid to the Participant hereunder.  The Corporation may require a Participant, as a condition to exercise of an Option, to make such arrangements as the Corporation may require so that the Corporation can satisfy applicable Withholding Obligations, including, without limitation, requiring the Participant to (i) remit the amount of any such Withholding Obligations to the Corporation in advance; (ii) reimburse the Corporation for any such Withholding Obligations; or (iii) cause a broker who sells Shares acquired by the Participant under the Plan on behalf of the Participant to withhold from the proceeds realized from such sale the amount required to satisfy any such Withholding Obligations and to remit such amount directly to the Corporation.
 
Any Shares of a Participant that are sold by the Corporation, or by a broker engaged by the Corporation (the “Broker”), to fund Withholding Obligations will be sold as soon as practicable in transactions effected on the Exchange.  In effecting the sale of any such Shares, the Corporation or the Broker will exercise its sole judgement as to the timing and manner of sale and will not be obligated to seek or obtain a minimum price.  Neither the Corporation nor the Broker will be liable for any loss arising out of any sale of such Shares including any loss relating to the manner or timing of such sales, the prices at which the Shares are sold or otherwise.  In addition, neither the Corporation nor the Broker will be liable for any loss arising from a delay in transferring any Shares to a Participant.  The sale price of Shares sold on behalf of Participants will fluctuate with the market price of the Corporation’s shares and no assurance can be given that any particular price will be received upon any such sale.
