Disclosure Regarding Cautionary Statements.


Cautionary Statements.

Certain risks and uncertainties are inherent in the Company's business. In addition to other information contained in this Form 10-KSB, the following Cautionary Statements should be considered when evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-KSB:


LIMITED ASSETS; ABSENCE OF SIGNIFICANT OPERATING REVENUES, AND NEED FOR ADDITIONAL CAPITAL. As of May 31, 2006, the Company audited financial statements reflect total assets of $123,026, total current liabilities of $39,028, working capital of $49,848, and a loss from  operations for the 12 month period then ended of $165,176.  Accordingly, certain risks exist with respect to the Company and its ability to effect its plan of operations of conducting additional exploratory work on its existing mining property or acquiring additional mining properties.


INDUSTRY RISKS. The Company’s business consists of acquiring prospective mineral properties, principally gold and silver properties, and after acquisition, conduct limited exploration work on the properties in order increase the potential value of its acquired properties. This industry is historically capital intensive and of high risk. The Company’s ability to achieve profitable operations will be dependent upon many factors, including its ability to raise sufficient capital to identify and acquire prospective mineral properties, and to conduct limited exploration so as to prove up or enhance the potential reserves of such properties.  The ability to discover such reserves are subject to numerous factors, most of which are beyond the Company’s control and are not predictable. Exploration for gold involves many risks and is frequently unsuccessful. Any gold exploration program entails risks relating to:

The ability to discover economic ore deposits,

The subsurface location of economic ore deposits,

The development of appropriate metallurgical processes,

The receipt of necessary governmental approvals, and

The construction of mining and processing facilities at any site chosen for mining, although the Company, at this time, does not expect to engage in actual mining operations.


In addition, the commercial viability of a mineral deposit is dependent on a number of these factors including:

The price of gold,

The particular attributes of the deposit, such as its size, grade and proximity to infrastructure, financing costs, taxation, royalties, land tenure, land use, water use, power use, and environmental protection issues.


The effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, and the occurrence of any one or more factors could have a material adverse impact on the Company and its proposed operations.


ADDITIONAL GEOLOGICAL WORK REQUIRED FOR ITS MINING PROPERTIES. The Company owns mining rights to two properties. The Bruner property is located in Nye County Nevada, and the Sage Creek property is located Lemhi County, Idaho.


With respect to the Bruner property, the Company has completed  an initial phase of exploratory work on the property consisting of sampling surface and underground exposures of mineralized zones and including five diamond core drill holes.  In September 2005, the Company entered into an exploration agreement with Electrum Resources LLC to explore the potential for gold mineralization at deeper depths on the Brunner property. The Company can not predict whether the results of any future geological work performed on the Bruner property will be sufficient to conclude that economic deposits exist on such claims, and whether such reserves, if any, are recoverable.


Regarding the Company’s Sage Creek property, due to the Company’s limited available cash, the Company will be able to conduct only limited geological exploration on the property. These exploration efforts likely will not be extensive, nor will such efforts be conclusive in determining the presence of  commercial mineralization,


NEED FOR ADDITIONAL CAPITAL/SIGNIFICANT DILUTION. The Company has a present need for additional capital in order to fulfill its plan of operations which may include the initial exploration work on the Sage Creek property along with its other working capital needs (See “Part II-Item 6 Plan of Operations”). In addition, the Company may require additional capital to acquire additional properties, and/or conduct exploratory work on existing and newly acquired properties. No assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in raising the capital necessary for both near term and future operations. In addition, if the Company is successful in raising additional funds, it is likely that any such additional capital will be in the form of the sale and issuance of additional shares of Company’s common stock. The sale and issuance of common stock may substantially increase the number of shares of common stock outstanding and cause significant dilution to existing shareholders.


UNPREDICTABLE GOLD PRICES. Gold exploration and production involves numerous natural risks that may not be overcome by knowledge and experience. In particular, even if the Company is successful in identifying gold deposits, for which no assurances can be given, the commercialization will be dependent upon the existing market price for gold, among other factors. The market price of gold historically has been unpredictable, and subject to wide fluctuations. The decline in the price of gold could render a discovered property uneconomic for unpredictable periods of time.


INDUSTRY REGULATION. The mineral exploration and mining industry is subject to numerous statutory and regulatory requirements and controls at various governmental levels. Regulations can impact the manner and methodology of any exploration, mining and milling activities undertaken by the Company or its assigns. The impact of such regulations can not be predicted, and may cause unexpected delays, and/or become cost prohibitive, thereby rendering any project uneconomic.


ENVIRONMENTAL AND OTHER RISKS. Mining activities pose certain potential environmental risks, as well as potential personal injury risks. While the Company will attempt to manage its risks, one or more incidents of environmental damage or personal injury resulting from its mining activities could have a material adverse impact on the business of the Company.


VOLATILE PRICES AND LIMITED VOLUME FOR COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK. Historically, there has been a limited trading market for the Company’s common stock. The price of the common stock has been extremely volatile. Due to the low price of the Company’s common stock, many brokerage firms may refrain or be prohibited from trading in the Company’s common stock. This could have an adverse effect on sustaining any market for the Company’s common stock. Consequently, shareholders may not be able to sell their shares at a desirable time, if at all.


MANAGEMENT AND DEPENDENCE ON MANAGEMENT. The ability of the Company to conduct its business affairs in a successful fashion will be subject to the capabilities and business acumen of current management. Accordingly, no person should purchase the Company’s common stock unless such person is willing to entrust all aspects of the business affairs of the Company to its current management.


PENNY STOCK REGULATION.   The  Company's  common stock may be deemed a  "penny stock"  under  federal  securities  laws.  The  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission has  adopted  regulations  that  define a  "penny stock" generally to be any  equity security  that  has  a market price of less than $5.00 per share,  subject  to  certain exceptions.  These regulations impose additional sales practice requirements on any broker/dealer  who sell  such  securities  to  other than  established investors and accredited investors.   For transactions covered by this rule, the broker/dealer must make certain suitability determinations and must receive the purchaser's written consent prior to purchase.  Additionally, any transaction may require the delivery prior to sale of a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission. Disclosure also is required to be made of commissions payable to the broker/dealer and the registered representative, as well as current quotations for the securities.   Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account of the customers and information on the limited market in penny stocks. These requirements generally are considered restrictive to the purchase of such stocks, and may limit the market liquidity for such securities.


PART I

Item 1. Description of Business.


Background.


American International Ventures, Inc., (the "Company") was originally organized as Lucky Seven Gas and Minerals, Inc., under the laws of the State of Pennsylvania on July 16, 1984. The name was changed to Lucky Seven Gold Mines, Inc. on June 24, 1996.  American Precious Metals, Inc was formed January 13, 1998 under the laws of the State of Delaware.  On March 16, 1998 Lucky Seven Gold Mines, Inc. merged into American Precious Metals, Inc., the surviving corporation.  The name was changed to American Global Enterprises, Inc. on November 13, 2000 and changed again on December 21, 2000 to American International Ventures, Inc.



BUSINESS OF COMPANY.


General.


The Company’s plan of operations for the foreseeable future is to seek, identify and, if successful, acquire a portfolio of undervalued or sub-economic but prospective mineral properties in the United States, principally gold properties. These properties likely have had prior mineral exploration work or actual mining activities conducted on site.  Once a property has been identified and/or acquired, the Company intends to re-evaluate the property based on the experience of its management and consultants, and will seek to enhance the value of the property by performing limited exploratory work on the property. The exploratory work may consist of on site geological mapping, field testing, and the drilling of exploration drill holes. At this time, the Company does not intend to engage in actual mineral extraction operations. However, if the Company is successful in enhancing property values through additional exploratory work, it may consider a number of options, including selling the property to interested mining companies. The Company can not predict whether it will be successful in these endeavors.  


Bruner Property - Nye County, Nevada.


During July 2002, the Company acquired certain patented and unpatented mining claims known as the Bruner property located in Nye County, Nevada from Orcana Resources, Inc. and Miramar Gold Corporation (collectively “Orcana”). Under the terms of acquisition, the Company is required to maintain the property in good standing under state mining regulations for at least one full assessment year and pay Orcana a two percent net smelter royalty on all metals and materials mined or produced from the property. The Company maintains the right to purchase the net smelter royalty from Orcana for the sum of $250,000 payable in cash and/or marketable securities of the Company. In addition, upon achieving commercial production on the Bruner property, the Company is obligated to pay Orcana $250,000 within 120 days of achieving such commercial production. The payment may be in the form of cash and/or marketable securities of the Company.


As discussed in greater detail below, on September 23, 2005, the Company completed an Exploration and Option to Enter Joint Venture Agreement (“Agreement”) with Electrum Resources LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (“Electrum”) relating to the Bruner mining claims.


The Bruner property is located in Nye County, Nevada in a region known as the Walker Lane gold belt, 125 miles east-southeast of Reno and 25 miles northeast of Gabbs, Nevada.  Several high-grade gold mines and prospects have been developed in the Bruner district in auriferous quartz veins hosted by Tertiary volcanic rocks.  The property area is underlain by tertiary felsic and intermediate composition volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks.  Gold mineralization is hosted by a sequence of crystal tuffs that range from latite to quartz latite in composition. The latite is pervasively altered in the central portion of the district, and gold detected in surface sampling and drilling is associated with quartz-adularia alteration.  Quartz-adularia veins also occur in the northern and eastern part of the property in a rhyolite porphyry flow-dome that intrudes the volcanic rocks.


Past production in the Bruner district has been estimated at approximately 55,587 ounces of gold contained in 99,625 tons of ore at a recovered grade of 0.562 oz/ton gold.  Most of the production occurred from 1920 to 1942 from high grade gold/silver vein deposits from the Paymaster, Penelas, Phonolite, and Duluth mines.  These mines are located on or near the Company’s Bruner property. In addition, several large-scale, volcanic-hosted, low grade deposits are located in the general vicinity, including Rawhide (1.4 million ounces gold total production, currently in reclamation), Round Mountain (720,000 ounces gold current annual production with over 9 million ounces produced through 2003), and Paradise Peak (1.5 million ounces gold) properties. These properties have been mined through an open pit, bulk mining method. Despite these past production amounts from the Bruner property and from mines in the general vicinity, the Company can not predict whether commercially exploitable mineral deposits or reserves exist on the Bruner property until appropriate exploratory work is done and an economic evaluation based on such work concludes economic feasibility.


Description of Property.


The Company owns 28 patented claims totaling 560 acres and 41 unpatented claims totaling 820 acres for a total land position of 1,380 acres in the heart of the Bruner district.  All claims are in good standing.  As stated above, the Company acquired the majority of the claims in July 2002 from Orcana, and the Company staked additional claims during 2003.   Prior to the Company’s acquisition of the claims, Miramar completed an extensive environmental clean-up of the property, and the Company is not aware of any environmental liabilities associated with the property.


In connection with its exploration agreement with Electrum, Electrum staked in the Company’s name but subject to the exploration agreement, 67 additional unpatented mining claims totaling approximately 1340 additional acres. Electrum will be responsible for the cost of maintaining the unpatented mining claims in good standing.


Exploration of Low Grade Targets On Bruner.


During the past 25 years, several companies have conducted significant exploration in the Bruner district, which includes the Company’s existing claims, for volcanic-hosted, bulk-tonnage precious metal mineralization at shallower depths.  The work completed includes geological mapping and sampling, about 1,000 soil geochemistry samples, several hundred rock chip samples from outcrops and underground workings, helicopter-airborne and ground geophysics, and approximately 147 drill holes totaling 65,185 feet. Gold mineralization has been detected in many of the drill holes. Most of the drill holes are reverse circulation holes.  The Company estimates that approximately $1.5 to $2 million has been spent on exploration in the area by the prior explorers.


The soil geochemistry program consisted of samples collected at 100 foot intervals along east-west grid lines spaced 400 feet apart. The soil geochemistry data show a 2,000 ft. by 800 ft. northwest-trending gold anomaly over the central portion of the Company’s claim block.  Values typically exceed 100 ppb gold and 300 ppb silver, whereas background values are less than 5 ppb gold and less than 50 ppb silver.  In addition, mine dumps, float and outcrops were sampled on the surface, and all of the available mine workings were chip channel sampled.


The magnetic geophysical data depicts the major north and northwest structural trends on a contoured plot of the total field data.  The mineralized structural trend that hosts the Penelas and Bruner deposits is readily identifiable as a linear magnetic low.


Several preliminary estimates have been made in the past of the mineralized material that may be present on the Bruner property.  The most recent  estimate was evidenced in a report prepared by a professional mining consultant to a major mining company that previously owned the claims.  The consultant in his report estimated that the Duluth target on the Company's Bruner property contains approximately 15 million tons of “mineralized material”1

 “Mineralized material” is gold bearing material that has been physically delineated by one or more of a number of methods including drilling, underground work, surface trenching and other types of sampling. This material has been found to contain a sufficient amount of mineralization of an average grade of metal or metals to have economic potential that warrants further exploration evaluation. While this material is not currently or may never be classified as reserves, it is reported as mineralized material only if the potential exists for reclassification into the reserves category. This material cannot be classified in the reserves category until final technical, economic and legal factors have been determined. Under the United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s standards, a mineral deposit does not qualify as a reserve unless the recoveries from the deposit are expected to be sufficient to recover total cash and non-cash costs for the mine and related facilities and make a profit.



 with a grade of 0.026 oz Au/ton, based on data from 37 reverse circulation drill holes and assuming a cutoff grade of 0.010 oz Au/ton and a rock density of 12 ft3/ton. The consultant concluded that there are several other targets areas on the Bruner property that have excellent potential for the delineation of additional mineralized material.  The Company has not sufficiently analyzed this data to corroborate the estimations of “mineralized material” reported by the consultant.  Without additional geological, engineering and economic studies, along with additional drilling, the Company can not predict whether commercial mineralization may exist on the property.  


During May and June of 2004, the Company conducted a limited diamond drill program in the Duluth area of the Bruner claims designed to follow up reverse air circulation drilling previously conducted on the property in the 1980's. During this period, the Company also performed surface geological mapping, and sampling in the area. The Company drilled five holes for a total of 767 linear feet. The cost of the program was approximately $68,000. The Company’s results were similar to previous drilling results on the property. Gold values greater than 0.02 oz/ton were detected in all of the five holes that were drilled.  Hole 181 contained a 14.3 foot interval that ran 0.079 oz Au/ton including a three foot interval that ran 0.257 oz Au/ton, hole 182 contained a 20.3 foot interval that ran 0.061 oz Au/ton, and hole 184 contained a 28.0 foot interval that ran 0.078 oz Au/ton including a 5.5 foot interval that ran 0.335 oz Au/ton. Management and its consulting geologists have re-considered the economic potential of the shallow depths on the Bruner claims based on prior results of its exploration program and that of past exploration efforts in view of current gold prices. Previously, management concluded that the shallow, open pittable potential has been effectively tested and appeared non-commercial. This conclusion was based on gold prices ranging from $300 to $350 per ounce. In view of the current gold price, management now believes that a more comprehensive evaluation of the economic potential of the shallow depths may be warranted.  


Exploration Potential on Deeper Targets.


All of the past exploration efforts on the Bruner claims, including the Company’s efforts described above,  have focused on finding bulk mineable deposits like those found at Round Mountain, Paradise Peak and Rawhide open pit mines.  Past exploration on the Bruner property has identified several areas where significant volumes of bulk mineable gold mineralization may occur at depths of less than 300 feet, which therefore could be amenable to open pit mining methods. The Company can not predict whether such mineralization is economic at this time.  


The potential for high-grade vein targets on the Bruner property, especially at depths greater than the low grade mineralization which has been explored to date, remains largely untested.  Previous exploration drilling encountered several vein intercepts assaying greater than 0.5 oz/ton Au, and surface sampling also yielded assay results of greater than 0.5 oz/ton Au. Preliminary evaluation of the Company’s recent diamond drilling results and surface geological work suggests the possibility of mineralization at greater depths, which may be similar to the Midas (also known as the Ken Snyder) mine located approximately 90 miles from Carlin, Nevada. The Midas/Ken Snyder mine was discovered in the mid-1990's and production commenced in January 1999 at an annual rate of about 200,000 ounces of gold per year by Newmont Mining Corp.  Newmont’s published reserves for the Midas/Ken Snyder mine on December 31, 2003 were 3,400,000 tons at a grade of 0.58 ounces of gold per ton containing 1,950,000 ounces of gold, with a similar amount of mineralized material.         


Transaction with Electrum and Recent Activities.


On September 23, 2005, the Company completed an Exploration and Option to Enter Joint Venture Agreement (“Agreement”) with Electrum Resources LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (“Electrum”) relating to the Bruner mining claims.  


Subject to certain conditions therein, Electrum has agreed to incur annual expenditures in respect of the Bruner property in the amount of $250,000, $500,000, and $2,250,000 in the first, second and third years following the date of the Agreement, respectively (“Expenditure Obligations”).


In consideration of Electrum’s performance of its Expenditure Obligations, AIVN granted to Electrum the option and right to earn and vest an undivided 65% interest in the Bruner mining claims, and to form a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”) for purposes of the management and ownership of the Bruner mining claims. The Joint Venture will be governed by a definitive mining venture agreement the form of which has been agreed to by the parties (“Operating Agreement”). Electrum will be the initial manager of the Joint Venture and will have control of the activities and operations of the Joint Venture. Electrum can earn an additional 10% in the Joint Venture by successfully completing, at its expense, a positive bankable feasibility study. The study must be commenced within five years from completion of its Expenditure Obligations, and completed within five years from commencement. The bankable feasibility study is a document prepared by independent professionals stating all of the technical, engineering and financial aspects of the project in sufficient detail whereby a bank or other lending institutions, in conjunction with their own investigations, can determine whether or not they will finance the mining project. If Electrum funds the Company’s share of future development costs of the Bruner property, Electrum will earn an additional 5% in the property. Electrum paid the Company the sum of $15,000 at closing, and agreed to pay the Company the sum of $25,000 on each anniversary of the effective date until it has completed its Expenditure Obligations.  Electrum has made the second anniversary payment to the Company. The term of the Agreement is five years. If Electrum fails to timely incur or pay its Expenditure Obligations, timely commence and complete the stated feasibility study, or otherwise terminates the Agreement, it will forfeit its rights and interests in and to the Bruner property and Joint Venture.


In late May 2006, Cougar Gold, LLC, a subsidiary of Electrum, commenced an exploratory drilling program on the Bruner property. To date, nine core holes have been completed and the assays been received.  Although there were several short intervals of relatively low grade gold mineralization recorded, there were no zones of the high grade mineralization that were the target of the drilling program. The targets for these holes were various intersections of the northwesterly major faults and the northeasterly splay faults.  Cougar has advised the Company that although they were disappointed by these results, they plan to continue the project, by further evaluating the Bruner geology to identify new targets and by conducting a comprehensive calculation of the shallow resource that has been identified by earlier explorers, which includes data obtained from the Company’s drill holes during 2004 and discussed above. On September 8, 2006, the Company filed a Report of Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission which is addressed the Bruner drilling operations.


Sage Creek Property – Lemhi County, Idaho.

In December 2004, the Company entered into an option agreement to acquire 10 unpatented mining claims in Lemhi County, Idaho comprising approximately 200 acres. Following the option agreement, the Company has staked an additional 21 unpatented claims, contiguous to the initial claims, comprising approximately 200 additional acres.  Total mineral holdings in the Sage Creek property are approximately 400 acres.  


The Sage creek property is adjacent to the Ulysses mine, which in the early part of the twentieth century produced 90,000 tons of ore averaging 0.33 ounce per ton gold and recovered 30,000 ounces of gold from a south-dipping mineralized horizon.  The mineralization at the Ulysses mine was reported to occur as a tabular lode conformable with the enclosing sedimentary rocks.  This mineralization is currently interpreted to be a Proterozoic age (Precambrian), stratiform, oxide-phase, banded iron formation.  The occurrence is genetically and geologically similar to the well known copper-cobalt deposits at the Blackbird mining district located about 30 miles to the south.  However, in contrast to the Blackbird deposits, the mineralization at Ulysses and Sage Creek appears to be low in base metals and high in gold values.


There are very few outcrops exposed on the property, but the mineralized horizon is believed to occur close to surface.  During 2005 and 2006, the Company conducted reconnaissance on the property and collected samples from rocks found at the surface which range from a low of 0.017 oz of gold per ton to a high of 1.43 oz of gold per ton.   All of the samples reported above were collected by the Company, and the values are consistent with previous sampling completed on the property.  The samples, which typically consisted of five to seven pounds of rock material collected on the surface, were analyzed by an independent third party laboratory using fire assays with a gravimetric finish for gold.  The samples are preliminary and strictly of a reconnaissance nature.  Therefore these samples do not represent a quantitative measurement of the gold content of the mineralized horizon, nor should the results be interpreted to indicate that gold mineralization is present in a quantity and grade that would represent an economically viable ore deposit.  Substantial additional geological and engineering work would have to be completed to confirm the presence of proven reserves that meet SEC standards, and no assurance can be given that any such reserves will eventually be defined.  


In 2005, the Company contracted with Gradient Geophysics, a geophysical consulting firm, to conduct a detailed ground-based magnetic survey over the principal area of interest at Sage Creek.  The survey was completed in October 2005 and survey results were received by the Company in early 2006.  The survey reveals two northwesterly trending magnetic anomalies which appear to coincide with the surface presence of mineralized float and the known historical mineral prospecting activities on the property.  Present interpretation is that the anomalies reflect the subcrop presence of the iron oxide phase banded iron formation(s).


Based on the geophysical results and prior surface mapping and sampling efforts, the Company has established plans for a diamond core drilling program to test the indicated mineral targets.  A plan of operations for the proposed drilling program has been submitted to the Salmon, Idaho offices of the U.S. Forest Service (Salmon-Challis National Forest), and the plan is presently undergoing the advanced scoping process.  Barring unforeseen problems, anticipated approval for the proposed plan of operations is expected in late September 2006.  Subject to weather conditions; the planned drilling could begin in early October, 2006, or as late as spring of 2007.  In order for the Company to conduct the described activities on the Sage Creek property, the Company may be required to raise additional funds. The Company can not predict whether it will be successful in raising such additional funds.


Item 2. Description of Property.


The Company’s business office is located at 4058 Histead Way, Evergreen, Colorado 80439, and is provided by the Company’s President on a rent-free basis under an oral arrangement between the parties.  The Company believes that this office space will sufficient to support its needs for the next 12 months.


During July 2002, the Company acquired certain patented and unpatented mining claims known as the Bruner property located in Nye County, Nevada from Orcana Resources, Inc. and Miramar Gold Corporation (collectively “Orcana”). Under the terms of acquisition, the Company is required to maintain the property in good standing under state mining regulations for at least one full assessment year and pay Orcana a two percent net smelter royalty on all metals and materials mined or produced from the property. The Company maintains the right to purchase the net smelter royalty from Orcana for the sum of $250,000 payable in cash and/or marketable securities of the Company. In addition, upon achieving commercial production on the Bruner property, the Company is obligated to pay Orcana $250,000 within 120 day of achieving such commercial production. The payment may be in the form of cash and/or marketable securities of the Company.  The Company’s Bruner claims consist of 28 patented claims totaling 560 acres and 41 unpatented claims totaling 820 acres in the heart of the Bruner district.  All claims are in good standing.  As stated above, the Company acquired the majority of the property in July 2002 from Orcana, and additional claims were staked during 2003.   Prior to the Company’s acquisition of the claims, Miramar completed an extensive environmental clean-up of the property, and the Company is not aware of any environmental liabilities associated with the property. In addition, during 2005, in connection with its exploration agreement with Electrum Resources, LLC, Electrum staked in the Company’s name but subject to the exploration agreement, 67 additional unpatented mining claims totaling approximately 1340 additional acres. Electrum will be responsible for the cost of maintaining the unpatented mining claims in good standing.


In December 2004, the Company entered into an option agreement to acquire 10 unpatented mining claims in Lemhi County, Idaho comprising approximately 200 acres.  Following the option agreement, the Company has staked an additional 21 unpatented claims, contiguous to the initial claims, comprising approximately 400 acres. Under the option agreement for the Idaho claims, the Company is required to pay the current owner the sum of $30,000 in staged payments over a four year period and incur exploration expenditures in the aggregate of $200,000 during the same period.  Upon meeting the requirements, the Company may elect to acquire the current owner's rights to the mining claims, subject to paying the current owner a two percent net smelter return royalty with advance annual royalty payments of $20,000 commencing on December 1, 2009. The Company may purchase one half of the net smelter return royalty by paying the current owner prior to December 1, 2009 the sum of $250,000 less any royalty payments made by the Company. If so acquired by the Company, it also may purchase half of the remaining net smelter return royalty by paying the current owner the sum of $250,000 at any time.


Item 3. Legal Proceedings.


On July 3, 2003, the Company filed an action against the Robert Carrington and Samuel Nunnemaker, former officers and directors of the Company, in Superior Court of New Jersey asserting fraud, breach of fiduciary duties to the Company, and seeking the placement of a constructive trust on a mineral property acquired by their affiliate and the sale proceeds thereof, among other claims.  On April 15, 2004, the court dismissed the case for lack of personal jurisdiction in New Jersey. The Board of Directors removed Mr. Nunnemaker as an officer and Mr. Carrington as Chairman on May 6, 2003, and Carrington and Nunnemaker were subsequently removed as Directors of the Company on December 15, 2003 by a majority vote of its shareholders.  Information on the background of Carrington and Nunnemaker's removal as Directors may be found in the Company's Form 8-K report that was filed with the SEC on December 16, 2003 and its Information Statement under Schedule 14C filed with the SEC on December 15, 2003.  


On April 20, 2004 Mr. Carrington and Mr. Nunnemaker filed a complaint against the Company in the Nevada Second District Court in Washoe County, Nevada asserting breach of contract and contending that the company fraudulently caused them to enter into certain agreements with the Company.   The Company filed an answer denying the plaintiffs’ claims, and also  filed a counterclaim against the plaintiffs.  The Company's counterclaim alleged that, among other things, the defendants breached the conditions of their engagement agreement with the Company, they wrongfully maintained possession of geological data pertaining to the Bruner property, they fraudulently obtained certain mining properties for their own benefit and unjustly enriched themselves while serving as officers and directors of the Company in violation of their fiduciary duty to the Company, and they withheld or misrepresented material facts and information from the Board of Directors.  On August 19, 2004, the plaintiffs filed a notice of lis pendens on the Bruner property, contenting that they maintained certain rights to the Bruner property. The Company disputed plaintiff’s claims and requested a hearing on the matter. In November 2004, the court ruled in favor of the Company and dismissed the lis pendens, stating that the Company is the”…owner of the Bruner Property and entitled to possession of the Bruner Property  free from interference by the Plaintiffs…”


On June 15, 2006, the Company settled the above described lawsuit. The settlement was reached through a mediation process encouraged by the judge presiding over the Nevada action. Under the terms of the settlement reached by the parties:


o

The Company will retain its interest in the Brunner property located Nye County, Nevada,

o

Messrs. Carrington and Nunnemaker will retain their interest in the Mt. Hamilton property located near Ely, Nevada,

o

Messrs Carrington and Nunnemaker each will retain 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and each will immediately  return to the Company  400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock previously issued to them,

o

All claims and allegations by each party against the other have been dropped and dismissed with prejudice,

o

The Company’s $25,000 bond will be released and returned to the Company, and

o

Each party will be responsible for their own costs related to the litigation.  


The Company’s Board of Directors approved the terms of the settlement on June 16, 2006.

Item 6. Plan Of Operation.


Overview


The Company is an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral properties.  The Company has acquired mining claims located in Nye County, Nevada, known as the “Bruner” claims, and in Lemhi County, Idaho known as the “Sage Creek” property.  


The Companies projected capital expenditure for the next 12 months is approximately $130,000 to $230,000 as described below.  The Company has budgeted $50,000 for initial phase of drilling and other exploration on the Sage Creek property.  Depending upon the results of the initial phase of drilling, a further drilling program is budgeted for $100,000. A budget of $50,000 is planned for due diligence and acquisition for new mining properties. Finally, corporate overhead that includes payment of consulting fees, legal, accounting, and miscellaneous expenditures is projected to be $30,000. Other than as indicated above, the Company has no other projected capital expenditures.


As of May 31, 2006, the Company has available working capital of $18,694. Therefore, the Company will be required to finance its plan of operations through the private placement of its capital stock or through debt financing. If the Company is able to raise part but not all of its projected working capital needs, it intends to prioritize available capital. The Company will pay its overhead requirements on an “as needed” basis. Next, it will devote available capital to the Sage Creek exploration.  Available capital remaining will be allocated towards to identification and exploration of other mining claims. At this time, the Company has no commitments for any such financing. No assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in these endeavors. If the Company is unsuccessful in these endeavors, it will have a material adverse impact on Company and its ability to conduct its business in the future.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To The Board of Directors

American International Ventures, Inc.


I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of American International Ventures, Inc. (an exploration stage company) as of May 31, 2006, and the related statements of operations and deficit accumulated during exploration stage, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ended May 31, 2006 and May 31, 2005, and the period from June 1, 2003 (date of inception of exploration stage) to May 31, 2006.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company management.  My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits.


I conducted the audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor was I engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  My audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate under the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly I express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  I believe that the audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.


In my opinion, the financial statements referred to in the first paragraph present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of American International Ventures, Inc. as of May 31, 2006, and the results of the operations of American International Ventures, Inc. and its cash flows for the two yearly periods then ended; and for the period June 1, 2003 (date of inception of exploration stage) to May 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

May 31, 2006




Note 1.

ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS


Organization

The Company was formed January 13, 1998 as American Precious Metals, Inc.  On March 16, 1998, it merged with Lucky Seven Gold Mines, Inc., a corporation which had operated since 1984 and was the successor entity of the merger.  On December 20, 2000, the Company changed its name to American International Ventures, Inc. (AIV).  


Exploration Stage

The Company is an exploration stage company, as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 7.  Generally accepted accounting principles that apply to established operating enterprises govern the recognition of revenue by an exploration stage enterprise and the accounting for costs and expenses.  The Company has been in the exploration stage since June 1, 2003 and all its efforts have been devoted to developing mining rights which it acquired in the 2003 year, as described in Note 5.  The Company has incurred losses since June 1, 2003 of $542,574.  Prior to June 1, 2003, the Company operated an office supplies business through a subsidiary.

  

Note 2.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES



a.

Cash


For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.



b.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, which include cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investment securities, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate their fair values at May 31, 2006.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 2.  (continued)



c.   Losses Per Share


Basic and diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  The number of weighted average shares outstanding as well as the amount of net loss per share are the same for basic and diluted per share calculations for all periods reflected in the accompanying financial statements.


As detailed in Note 6, options were issued in the year ended May 31, 2006.  In addition, warrants were issued as part of a private placement offering during the year ended May 31, 2006 (see Note 10).  These options and warrants were not included in the calculation of loss per share because such inclusion would have an antidilutive effect.


d.   Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires the use of the “liability method”.  Accordingly, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  Current income taxes are based on the income that is currently taxable.


e.   Marketable Securities


Marketable securities, when owned, are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value.  Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recognized as direct increases or decreases in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Note 2 (continued)


f.  Fixed Assets


Fixed assets are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is computed by using accelerated methods, with useful lives of seven years for furniture and equipment and five years for computers and automobiles.


g.   Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.


h.   Advertising Costs


The Company expenses advertising costs when the advertisement occurs. There was no advertising expense in either the year ended May 31, 2005 or May 31, 2006.  


i.    Segment Reporting


The Company is organized in one reporting and accountable segment.


j.    Recognition of Revenue


Revenue will be realized from product sales.  Recognition will occur upon shipment to customers, and where the following criteria are met:  persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred; the sales price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.  Additional revenue from royalties will be recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exits; the amount due is fixed and determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.

Note 2 (continued)


k.    Common Stock


Common stock of the Company is occasionally issued in return for services.  Values are assigned to these issuances equal to the value of services received or the market value of the common stock, whichever is most clearly evident.  


         l.  Options and Warrants Outstanding


Options to purchase capital stock of the Company are valued in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123R, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation”.  This value is expensed during the periods in which the options are earned. The warrants are valued based on their fair value at time of issuance.



Note 3.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS


During the year ended May 31, 2006, 300,000 options were awarded to a consultant who also serves as the Company president.


Shares of common stock were issued during the year ended May 31, 2005 in private placements (see Note 4).  Officers and directors of the Company subscribed to $54,530 of these offerings.


The Company makes its office in space provided by the Company President, rent free. If rent were charged for the space, it would be insignificant.


Note 4.

CAPITAL STOCK


The Company issued 1,236,500 shares of stock in private placements during the year ended May 31, 2005, resulting in net proceeds of $86,555.  Of the total amount, $54,530 was subscribed by officers and directors of the Company.   No additional warrants were issued as part of these placements.  These offerings were exempt under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated there under.


The Company sold 2,000,000 shares of stock in private placements during the year ended May 31, 2006, resulting in $200,000 of proceeds (see Note 5).  The stock was sold with detachable warrants, comprised of 1,000,000 Class “A” warrants exercisable at $.20 per share for two years and 1,000,000 Class “B” warrants exercisable at $.20 per share for four years.

MINING RIGHTS


In July 2002, the Company acquired by agreement patented mining claims located in Nevada at a cost of $3,273.  Under the terms of the agreement, the Company has certain rights and obligations:  a 2% Net Smelting Royalty will be due to the seller on all metals and materials mined at the property; a one time payment of $250,000 will be due to the seller in cash or marketable securities when Commercial Production has been achieved at the property; and the Company will have a right to purchase the Net Smelting Royalty upon receipt by the Company Board of Directors of a positive Feasibility Study – the purchase price would be $250,000.


Effective September 1, 2005, the Company signed an agreement with Electrum Resource, LLC (“Electrum”) to explore and, if successful, to develop the Bruner Gold Property in Nye County, Nevada.  The agreement calls for Electrum to spend $3,000,000 in exploration expenses over three years and make prescribed payments to the Company over the initial five-year term of the contract.  During that time Electrum can elect to receive a 65% interest in the property, increasing it to 75% if certain conditions are met.  The property will revert to the Company if Electrum does not fulfill its obligations.


During September 2005, Electrum acquired 2,000,000 shares of Company stock for $200,000 and received warrants to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Company common stock exercisable for two years at $.20 per share and warrants to purchase an additional 1,000,000 shares exercisable for four years at $.20 per share.   


During 2005, the Company acquired additional mining rights situated in Lemhi County, Idaho.  Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, the Company is required to make installment payments totaling $30,000 between December 1, 2004 and December 1, 2008; it must also incur exploration expenses totaling $200,000 between December 1, 2005 and December 1, 2008.  For years commencing after December 1, 2008, the Company is required to make annual advance royalty payments of $20,000.  The Company is also obligated to pay an annual royalty of 2% of “Net Smelter Returns”.

STOCK OPTIONS


In December 2003, the Board of Directors approved a stock option plan under which options to purchase 2,000,000 shares of common stock can be issued to key employees and key consultants as determined by the Board of Directors.  Options to purchase common stock were issued to five officers of the Company and one consultant.  Each received options to purchase 300,000 shares at a price of $.10 per share, exercisable for a five year period.  This plan was voided at the end of calendar 2004 and was replaced by a grant of options with similar terms and immediate vesting.  An additional 300,000 options were granted during the year ended May 31, 2006 at an exercise price of $.17 per share for a five year period with options to purchase 100,000 shares vesting immediately, options to purchase 100,000 shares vesting after one year, and options to purchase 100,000 shares vesting after two years.  The options are being expensed over the vesting periods.


The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Sholes option pricing model.

The Company and its former subsidiary have experienced losses each year since its inception.  As a result, it has incurred no Federal income tax.  The Internal Revenue Code allows net operating losses (NOL’s) to be carried forward and applied against future profits for a period of twenty years; state law in New Jersey allows a seven-year carry forward period.  At May 31, 2006, NOL carryforwards were available to the Company as follows:  the Federal amount was $1,216,551 and the state amount was $1,176,699.  The potential tax benefit of the  NOL’s has been recognized on the books of the Company, but offset by a valuation allowance.  If not used, the Federal carryforwards will expire as follows:

SUBSEQUENT EVENT  


The Company brought suit during 2003 in New Jersey Superior Court against two former officers and directors of the Company, charging them with fraud and breach of fiduciary duty.  On April 15, 2004, the case was dismissed by the New Jersey court for lack of jurisdiction.  On April 20, 2004, the two former officers and directors brought suit in a Nevada court, charging the Company with, among other things, breach of contract.  The Company answered this suit and brought a counterclaim against the two former officers and directors.


A settlement was approved by the Board of Directors on June 12, 2006, whereby both the Company and the former officials retain rights in certain previously owned properties.  Additionally, each former official will retain 100,000 shares of previously owned Company stock and each will return 400,000 shares to the Company.  All allegations will be dismissed without prejudice and the Company’s $25,000 bond (see Note 12) will be returned to the Company upon submission of court documents.
