ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION

A.	Selected financial data.

The following selected financial data has been extracted from the consolidated financial statements for the last five years prepared pursuant to Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Where material differences exist between Canadian and US GAAP, corresponding comparison data has been provided in US GAAP for clarity.

North American Nickel Inc. (formerly Widescope Resources Inc.) (the “Company”) was incorporated on September 23, 1983. The Company changed its name from Widescope Resources Inc. to North American Nickel Inc. effective April 19, 2010. The Company’s principal business activity is the exploration of natural resource properties.

Effective April 19, 2010 the Company’s shareholders approved a special resolution to reorganize the Company’s capital structure by consolidating in a reverse stock split the existing common shares on the basis of each two (2) old shares being equal to one (1) new share and concurrently increasing the authorized capital of the Company from 100,000,000 common shares without par value to an unlimited number of common shares without par value. All references to common shares, stock options, warrants and weighted average number of shares outstanding in this Form 20-F retroactively reflect the share consolidation unless otherwise noted. The net effect of the above was to reduce the existing outstanding common shares from 10,883,452 to 5,441,730.

D.	Risk factors.

The business of the Company entails significant risks, and an investment in the securities of the Company should be considered highly speculative. An investment in the securities of the Company should only be undertaken by persons who have sufficient financial resources to enable them to assume such risks. The following is a general description of all material risks, which can adversely affect the business and in turn the financial results, ultimately affecting the value of an investment the Company.

The Company has no viable commercial business.

Having no viable business it is difficult to determine a price for the common shares. That price must therefore be dependent on the value that each individual buyer and seller place on the future prospects of the company, rather than any objective measurement. This is a very risk position for shareholders, as the majority perception may turn negative and price decline severely.

The Company has limited funds.

Funds are the fuel needed to drive the company. Should current funds be consumed, and the company not be able to attract more capital, prospects for shareholders would become extremely negative, and shareholder losses will inevitably occur.

There is no assurance that the Company can access additional capital.

The company will need to demonstrate performance in order to attract additional capital. As the mineral exploration business has a high element of chance associated with it, it is possible that none of the current properties will have any value. The capital markets could perceive this to be a demonstration of poor performance, and be unwilling to provide additional funds. Should this happen, shareholders will incur significant losses.

There is no assurance that the transactions disclosed herein will be successful in its quest to find a commercially viable quantity of mineral resources.

Unless the Company is able to secure other more viable projects, providing better future prospects, buyer interest for common shares will decline severely, resulting in lower prices and significant shareholder losses.

There is no assurance that other prospective mineral properties or other assets can be acquired, and if acquired that the necessary additional capital can be attracted.

Either of these is possible. Either occurring will have the same inevitable outcome. Demand for the common shares will decline severely, resulting in a drop in trading price, and significant shareholder losses.

The Company has a history of operating losses and may have operating losses and a negative cash flow in the future.

This will mean that additional shares will need to be sold to fund operations. Without a concurrent improvement in future prospects, this will result in supply of stock exceeding demand, and much lower prices. This will cause shareholders to lose money.

The Company’s auditors have indicated that U.S. reporting standards would require them to raise a concern about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Additional capital will need to be raised. This could result in the perception of lowered future prospects, lower demand for the Company’s common share, lower stock prices, and shareholder losses.

There can be no assurance that a liquid market will develop for the Company’s shares and therefore no assurance that shareholders will be able to sell their shares.

Lack of liquidity that prevents shareholders from selling, or limits their abilities to sell, will all too likely lead to significant losses for shareholders.

Management has little expertise in mining , which may ultimately cause shareholders to lose money.

Management may waste the Company’s limited capital on worthless properties, or it may do the wrong things with properties that could have value. Either way, the outcome will be the same. Money will have been wasted without any corresponding creation of value. This will cause shareholders to lose patience and lose interest. This could lead to significantly increased selling of shares, driving down the price, and leading to losses for investors.

The Company’s common stock is thinly traded so it is more susceptible to extreme rises or declines in price, and you may not be able to sell your shares at or above the price paid.

You may have difficulty reselling shares of our common stock, either at or above the price paid, or even at fair market value. The stock market often experiences significant price and volume changes that are not related to the operating performance of individual companies, and because our common stock is thinly traded it is particularly susceptible to such changes. These broad market changes may cause the market price of our common shares to decline, regardless of how well the company performs. This may be exaggerated by the fact that the shares trade on the over-the-counter bulletin board (“OTCBB”), which is owned and operated by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). Trading on the OTCBB is often extremely sporadic, and subject to manipulation by market-makers, and short sellers. This may cause you to lose money as you may have difficulty selling the shares that you own.

The Company’s common stock is subject to the “penny stock” regulations, which are likely to make it more difficult to sell.

A “penny stock” is generally a stock trading under $5.00 per share, and not registered on a national securities exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ national market. The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. These rules, intended to protect investors, generally have the result of reducing trading in such stocks, restricting the pool of potential investors, and making it more difficult for investors to sell their shares once acquired. Since our common shares are subject to the “penny stock” rules, you may find it more difficult to sell your shares.

As a foreign issuer, the Company is exempt from certain informational requirements of the Exchange Act to which domestic issuers are subject.

As a foreign issuer we are not required to comply with all of the informational requirements of the Exchange Act. As a result, there may be less information concerning our company publicly available than if we were a domestic United States issuer. In addition, our officers, directors, and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short profit provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and the rules promulgated thereunder. Therefore, our shareholders may not know on a timely basis when our officers, directors, and principal shareholders purchase or sell shares of our common stock.

As a Canadian company with most assets and key personnel located outside the United States, you may have difficulty in acquiring United States jurisdiction, or enforcing a United States judgment against us, our key personnel, or assets.

As a Canadian company many of our assets and key personnel, including directors and officers, reside outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for you to effect service of process within the United States upon us or any of our key personnel or to enforce against us or any of our key personnel judgments obtained in United States’ courts, including judgments relating to United States federal securities laws. Canadian courts may not permit you to bring an original action in Canada, or recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against us predicated upon the civil liability provisions of federal securities laws of the United States, or of any state thereof. Furthermore, because many of our assets are located in Canada, it would be extremely difficult to access these assets to satisfy any award entered against us in a United States court. Accordingly, you may have more difficulty in protecting your interests in the face of actions taken by our management, members of our board of directors, or our controlling shareholders than you would otherwise as shareholders of a United States public company.

The Company does not intend to pay any common stock dividends in the foreseeable future.

We have never declared or paid a dividend on our common stock, and, because we have very limited resources, we do not anticipate declaring or paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. It is unlikely that the holders of our common shares will have an opportunity to profit from anything other than potential appreciation in the value of our common shares. If you require dividend income, you should not rely in an investment in our common shares to provide it.

Future issuances of common stock may depress stock prices and dilute your interest.

We may issue additional shares of our common stock in future financings, or grant stock options to our employees, officers, directors, and consultants under our stock incentive plan. Any such issuances could have the effect of depressing the market price of our common stock, and, in any case, would dilute the percentage ownership interests in our company of our shareholders. In addition we could issue securities having rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our common shares. This could depress the value of our common shares.

ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A. History and development of the Company.

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, by filing of Memorandum and Articles of Association on September 20, 1983, under the name Rainbow Resources Ltd. The Company’s name was changed to Widescope Resources Ltd. on May 1, 1984, and to Gemini Technology Inc. on September 17, 1985. In conjunction with a reverse split of its common shares on a five-old for one-new basis, the Company adopted the name International Gemini Technology Inc effective September 23, 1993. The Company’s name was changed to Widescope Resources Inc., effective July 12, 2006. Effective April 19, 2010 the Company’s shareholders approved a special resolution to reorganize the Company’s capital structure by consolidating in a reverse stock split the existing common shares on the basis of each two (2) old shares being equal to one (1) new share and concurrently increasing the authorized capital of the Company from 100,000,000 common shares without par value to an unlimited number of common shares without par value. Also effective this date the Company’s name was changed to North American Nickel Inc. to reflect its new focus. All references to common shares, stock options, warrants and weighted average number of shares outstanding in accompanying financial statements retroactively reflect the share consolidation unless otherwise noted. The Company is currently in good standing under the laws of British Columbia. The registered and records office of the Company are located at #1750 - 1185 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, B.C. Canada V6E 4E6 and the Company’s principal executive offices are located at #301 – 260 West Esplanade, North Vancouver, BC, V7M 3G7, telephone (604) 986-2020.

In April 2010 the Company initiated a series of actions to realign its focus into the field of nickel exploration in the prolific nickel belts around Sudbury, Ontario and Thompson Manitoba. These actions were reported in a news release dated April 6, 2010.

B.	Business overview

In April 2005 the Company entered into a subscription agreement to invest $200,000 into Outback Capital Inc. dba Pinefalls Gold (“PFG”) a private Alberta company with certain directors and a principal shareholder of PFG in common with the Company.

In conjunction with the April 2010 refocusing of the Company on nickel exploration, as of April 23, 2010 the Company entered into an agreement with an independent third party that resulted in divesting its interest in Outback Capital Inc., and its remaining interest in the Rice Lake properties. The sale was completed as of May 31, 2010, and the proceeds from the sale were $52,606.

In conducting its business operations, the Company is not dependent on any patented or license processes, technology, industrial, commercial or financial contract or new manufacturing processes.

The Company competes with other exploration companies, some of which have greater financial resources and technical facilities, for the acquisition of mineral interests, as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees. Exploration in Manitoba has experienced a dramatic revival in recent years and increased activity is forecast for the future. We compete for qualified employees with other Canadian companies, including Harvest Gold Corp., Grandview Gold Inc., and San Gold Corp. amongst others.

With the dramatic and possibly unprecedented contraction of global financial markets experienced in 2008, a tidal wave of qualified people became available. Suddenly, capital became unavailable. Exploration companies everywhere reduced overhead.

Access to capital eased marginally toward the latter part of 2009 and beyond. More capital became available, and enthusiasm for mining projects increased at much the same time. The latter, because of expectations of increased inflation, brought increased demand for precious metals and because of the expectation of an increasing demand for base metals from Asia.

To focus on the expected increased demand for base metals, the Company has entered into agreements to acquire rights to four properties in the Sudbury Ontario nickel belt, and one agreement to acquire 100% ownership of another property in the area of the Thompson Manitoba nickel belt. As part of this change in focus, the Company has entered into an arms length agreement to divest its interest in Outback Capital Inc., and through this, its interest in the Pine Falls Manitoba gold properties.

The Company arranged two non-brokered private placements to finance working capital and the first exploration work at Post Creek and Bell Lake in the Sudbury nickel belt. It has also attracted four new directors, each with significant experience in mineral exploration, to replace three previous directors, and add one additional director.

C.	Organizational structure.

The Company is part of no other group. During the year ended June 30, 2006 Outback Capital Inc. dba Pinefalls Gold (“PFG”) a private Alberta corporation became a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company. PFG was incorporated under the Alberta Business Corporations Act on February 6, 2001. During the year, the Company entered into an agreement with an arms length entity that resulted in it divesting of its interest in Outback Capital Inc.

D.	Property, plants and equipment.

The Company’s head office and principal facility, which is leased, is located at 260 West Esplanade, North Vancouver.

The Company has entered into four agreements to acquire rights to the Post Creek, Bell Lake, Woods Creek and Halcyon properties in the Sudbury, Ontario nickel belt; and an agreement to acquire up to a 100% ownership of the high-grade Ni-Cu-PGE South Bay property near Thompson and the large grassroots Thompson North and Cedar Lake properties, which are part of the world-class Thompson Nickel Belt. The company has also acquired a large Ni-Cu-PGE land package in Greenland. A figure showing the location of all of the company’s properties are displayed below.

Sudbury nickel properties:

The Sudbury properties currently being explored by North American Nickel are exploration properties without mineral reserves. All properties can be readily accessed by paved and/or all-weather gravel roads and have access to water and diesel-power for exploration purposes. The total ore mined to date in Sudbury is 1.7 billion tons with 40 billion lbs of nickel, 36 billion lbs of copper, 70 million ounces of platinum, palladium and gold and 283 million ounces of silver. The Sudbury properties have many of the unique geologic characteristics of the Sudbury Basin. An example is the Post Creek property which has been shown through results of recent exploration to be situated on the same geologic structure as the currently producing Podolsky copper-nickel-PGM mine. However the economic mineralization currently being mined at Podolsky may not necessarily be present on the Post Creek property. A similar situation exists on both the Bell Lake and Woods Creek properties. The Bell Lake property occurs along a geologic structure (the Worthington Offset) that hosts many past- and soon to be producing copper-nickel-PGM mines. The Woods Creek property has strong geological similarities to the currently producing Shakespeare copper-nickel-cobalt-PGM mine that occurs 15 km to the southwest. The presence of economic mineralization cannot be guaranteed on either of the Woods Creek or Bell Lake properties.

Post Creek (Bedrock-hosted Mineral Exploration Claims): The property is located 35 km east of Sudbury in Norman and Parkin townships and consists of 35 contiguous unpatented mining claims and one isolated claim covering an area of 688 hectares. The center of the property occurs at UTM coordinates 510217m E, 5182584m N (NAD83 UTM Zone 17N. It is strategically located adjacent to the producing Podolsky copper-nickel-platinum group metal deposit of FNX Mining. The property lies along the extension of the Whistle Offset Dyke Structure which is a major geological control for Ni-Cu-PGM mineralization. This structure hosted the former INCO Whistle Offset copper-nickel-PGM Mine (past production of 5.7 million tons grading 0.33% Cu, 0.95% Ni and 3.77 grams/tonne total platinum metals as well as the Podolsky North and Podolsky 2000 copper-precious metal deposits. Previous operators located the extension of the Whistle Offset Dyke structure on the Post Creek property as a direct result of their geological, geophysical and Mobile Metal Ion soil geochemical surveys. Drilling on this structure intersected a 0.66 m near solid to solid sulphide zone with 0.48% copper, 0.08% nickel, 0.054 grams/tonne palladium, 0.034 grams/tonne

platinum and 0.020 grams/tonne gold. A rock sample collected along the structure assayed 0.83% Ni, 0.74% Cu, 0.07% Co, 2.24 grams/tonne Pt and 1.05 grams/tonne Pd. Significant potential for nickel-copper-PGM is demonstrated on the Post Creek property. Recent exploration has documented the presence of a previously unrecognized zone of brecciated rocks with quartz diorite and partial melt fragments and disseminated pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and lesser pyrite. A ground geophysical survey and diamond drill program has recently been completed. Assay results are pending.

A NI 43-101 compliant Technical Report has been commissioned, with Dr. Walter Peredery, formerly of INCO, as the author and subsequently accepted by the Securities Commission.

An option Agreement dated April 5, 2010 was struck between John and Marie Brady and Widescope Resources Inc., now known as North American Nickel Inc. pursuant to a corporate name change dated April 19, 2010. North American Nickel can earn 100% interest in the property by making the option payments, issuing shares and making the required Work Expenditures as set out in the option agreement.

Upon completion of the Option Agreement the property will be transferred to North American Nickel and Beilhartz will retain a 2.5% NSR. 33 claims encompass an area of approximately 624 hectares and are held by John Gregory Brady; one claim is held by North American Nickel. Work commitments on the claims are set out at $400.00 per unit (16 hectares) per year and are due to the Ontario Ministry of Development and Mines. Field work is completed and compiled, along with a statement of expenditures, and filed with the Ontario Ministry of Development and Mines by North American Nickel employees.

The required work commitments are submitted to the Ontario Ministry of Development and Mines, on a form supplied by the Ministry. Provided John Brady gives authorization to Janelle Toffan of Ens Land Management (contracted by North American Nickel to manage lands) to act as agent on his behalf, Ens Land Management will submit the annual renewal on or before the claims Annual Anniversary dates. If authorization is not given then John Brady will make the submission. Expenditures, filed in excess of the annual work commitment, are banked and can be used towards future work requirements.

A claims list and a location map for the property are given below.

Bell Lake (Bedrock-Hosted Mineral Exploration Patented Claim): The Bell Lake property is a 256 acre property that covers approximately 1 km of the Mystery Offset Dyke or “MOD”. The MOD is interpreted to be an extension of the Worthington Offset Dyke which is a 10-11 km long mineralized structure that extends from the southwest margin of the Sudbury Igneous Complex. Offset Dyke environments are significant hosts to nickel-copper-PGM mineralization in the Sudbury Basin. The Worthington Offset Dyke hosts the past producing Worthington Mine and the Victoria Mine with past production of 1.5 million tons of 2.2% copper, 1.5% nickel and 2.3 grams/tonne total precious metals. Crowflight Minerals AER-Kidd property also occurs within the Worthington Offset. The Bell Lake property is marked by surface exposures of disseminated to near-solid nickel-copper sulphide mineralization with PGM values. The Mystery Offset Dyke offers excellent exploration potential for the discovery of additional nickel-copper-PGM mineralization. Deep-looking ground geophysical surveys on a freshly-cut grid have been commissioned.

Woods Creek (Bedrock-Hosted Mineral Exploration Claims): The Woods Creek claim block is located in Hyman Township about 50 km west of Sudbury and comprises eight contiguous unpatented mining claims covering 1,264 hectares The target on the property is disseminated to near-solid nickel-copper-cobalt-PGM mineralization hosted within Nipissing Diabase dykes that cover 50% of the property.

Previous operators defined a number of mineralized zones on the Woods Creek property, but little follow-up exploration was undertaken. The Main Zone prospect is a zone of 10-40% pyrrhotite-chalcopyrite mineralization that assayed 1.22% Cu, 0.95% Ni, 0.354 grams/tonne combined Pt and Pd and 0.136 grams/tonne Au from an outcrop reconnaissance chip sample of approximately 2 kg. Diamond drilling on this zone intersected a 6.5 m section of gabbro with pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite that assayed up to 1.09% Ni, 0.37% Cu, 0.301 grams/tonne combined Pt and Pd and 0.11% Co. The Ravenshill prospect was discovered in 2005 as a result of geological mapping and prospecting. It comprises near solid pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite in brecciated gabbro with an assay of a representative reconnaissance chip sample returning 0.66% Ni, 0.90% Cu, 0.09% Co, 0.068 grams/tonne Pt, 0.227 grams/tonne Pd and 0.046 grams/tonne Au.

Exploration to date has documented the presence of previously unrecognized disseminated to solid sulphide pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite subsequent to magnetic geophysical surveys, mechanical excavator stripping and sampling of mineralization.

Option Agreement dated April 5, 2010 between John and Marie Brady, David Beilhartz and Widescope Resources Inc., now known as North American Nickel Inc. pursuant to a corporate name change dated April 19, 2010.

Manitoba nickel properties:

The Manitoba nickel properties are large mineral exploration licences that can be accessed by a combination of all-weather gravel roads and helicopter or fixed wing aircraft. Water and diesel generated power for the purposes of exploration are readily available. All properties are exploration properties without known reserves. The Thompson North and Cedar Lake or Thompson South mineral exploration licences occur along the historic and world class nickel-copper-cobalt-PGM belt known as the Thompson Nickel Belt where INCO (Vale) has mined 150 million tons of 2.32% nickel since the 1960’s. Despite the similarities in the geology and mineralization the presence of nickel ore bodies cannot be guaranteed to exist on these properties. The same geologic similarities exist on the South Bay property but exploration is in its infancy and the presence of economic quantities of mineralization cannot be guaranteed. A Manitoba nickel properties location map is presented below.

South Bay (Bedrock-Hosted Mineral Exploration Claims): Exploration was spurred at the South Bay property by the September, 2003 discovery of a zone of high-grade nickel mineralization. The nickel-copper-cobalt platinum group element (“PGE”) zone was found in one wall of a new road cut 60 km east of the town of Leaf Rapids, Manitoba. The average grade of eleven samples of near-solid sulphide collected from boulder-sized blast rubble in the road cut exposure is 2.42 % Ni, 0.78 % Cu, 0.069% Co and 1.32 grams/tonne PGE. The mineralization is sedimentary-rock-hosted and exhibits similar metal characteristics to ores associated with magma-derived nickel deposits that are mined at Thompson and worldwide. Airborne geophysical surveys (VTEM) have been flown over the property and preliminary soil geochemical surveys have been undertaken.

South Bay claims acquired through an Option Agreement dated August 1, 2003 between John Camier and Rare Earth Metals Corp (VMS Ventures Inc.). Option Agreement completed August 2009. John Camier retains a 3% NSR. Claims transferred from VMS Ventures Inc. to North American Nickel Inc. December 14, 2010. Mineral rights are retained as long as the required work commitments are met on each claim.

Annual work requirements for claims aged 1 to 10 years is $12.50/hectare, claims aged 11 years and older have an annual work requirement of $25.00/hectare. Field work is completed and an assessment report compiled, along with a statement of expenditures, then submitted to the Manitoba Mining Recorder by North American Nickel employees. If no work has been carried out a refundable cash deficiency payment can be submitted in lieu of work. The required work commitments are submitted to the Manitoba Mines Branch, on a form supplied by the Mines Branch, together with the required filing fees ($12.00 per claim per renewal year), by Janelle Toffan of Ens Land Management who has been contracted by North American Nickel as Lands Manager. Submission must occur on or before the claims expiry date (Anniversary Date plus 60 days). Expenditures, filed in excess of the annual work commitment, are banked and can be used towards future work requirements.

Forty South Bay claims (of which 20 have been approved to lapse on their expiry dates) currently encompass an area of approximately 9,328 hectares.

North Thompson (Bedrock-Hosted Mineral Exploration Licences): : The property overlies the world class Thompson Nickel Belt (“TNB”) where Vale Inco continues to mine nickel-copper-cobalt and platinum group element mineralization hosted within sedimentary and mafic intrusive rocks. Based on research by the Manitoba Geological Survey the northeastern extension of the TNB has been traced through the Thompson North property making the area highly attractive for repetitions of TNB mineralization. Airborne geophysics (VTEM) has been flown over the property and numerous anomalous magnetic and electromagnetic features identified. Follow-up exploration will be based upon ranking and modeling of geophysics and soil geochemical surveys.

North Thompson Mineral Exploration Licences were transferred from VMS Ventures Inc. to North American Nickel Inc. (342B, 364A, 401A transferred in December 2010 and 403A, 405A, 406A, 407A and 419A transferred in March 2011). The mineral rights are retained, during the term of the licence, as long as the required work commitments are met on each Mineral Exploration Licence. If mineral rights are to be retained at the end of the 2nd term then the Mineral Exploration Licence area must either be converted to claims or application made for a new licence.

Annual work requirements for Mineral Exploration Licence are as follows:

Zone A (3 year term to a maximum of 2 terms):

Area designated as Zone A - 3 Year Term:

$1.25 in the first year of the licence

$5.00.ha in the second year

$7.50/ha in the 3rd year

$10.00/ha in the 4th year of the licence

$12.50/ha in the 5th year of the licence

$15.00/ha in the 6th year of the licence

Zone B (5 year term to a maximum of 2 terms):

$0.50 per hectare in the first year of the licence

$1.00 per hectare in the second year of the licence

$1.50 per hectare in the third year of the licence

$3.00 per hectare in the fourth year of the licence

$4.00 per hectare in the fifth year of the licence

$4.00 per hectare in each of the sixth and seventh years of the licence

$5.00 per hectare in each of the eighth and ninth years of the licence

$6.00 per hectare in the 10th year of the licence

Field work is completed and an assessment report compiled, along with a statement of expenditures, and submitted to the Manitoba Mining Recorder by North American Nickel employees. If no work has been carried out a refundable cash deficiency payment can be submitted in lieu of work. The required work commitments are submitted to the Manitoba Mines Branch, on a form supplied by the Mines Branch, by Janelle Toffan of Ens Land Management who has been contracted by North American Nickel as Lands Manager. Submission must occur on or before the Mineral Exploration expiry date (Annual Anniversary Date +90 days). If any changes are to occur (reduction in size, conversion to claims or surrender of licence) notice must be submitted to the Recorder on or before the Annual Anniversary date. Expenditures, filed in excess of the annual work commitment, are banked and can be used towards future work requirements.

South Thompson Licence (Cedar Lake: Bedrock-Hosted Mineral Exploration Licence):

The property occupies the southern portion of the Thompson Nickel Belt where previous exploration based on the drill-testing of geophysical anomalies has identified key stratigraphic components that host producing nickel-copper-cobalt and platinum group elements at the Thompson and Pipe Mines of Vale Inco. Nickel mineralization has been intersected in drilling on adjacent Mineral Exploration Licenses. The prospective rock units are overlain by younger carbonate rocks and conceal the TNB in this area. The Company has undertaken airborne geophysical surveys (VTEM) and delineated numerous conductive and magnetic anomalies. These anomalies will be prioritized and drill tested subsequent to soil geochemical surveys.

South Thompson Mineral Exploration Licence transferred from VMS Ventures Inc. to North American Nickel Inc. in December 2010. Mineral rights are retained, during the term of the licence, as long as the required work commitments are met on each Mineral Exploration Licence. If mineral rights are to be retained at the end of the 2nd term then the Mineral Exploration Licence area must either be converted to claims or application made for a new Licence. Annual work requirements for Mineral Exploration Licence include:

Zone B (5 year term to a maximum of 2 terms):

$0.50 per hectare in the first year of the licence

$1.00 per hectare in the second year of the licence

ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included herein (see also "Selected Financial Data"). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. Refer to Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements for a description of transactions that were subject to material measurement differences between Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP under Item 17.

Overview

With the acquisition of PFG effective June 30, 2006, the Company’s primary focus shifted to mineral resource exploration operations rather than acquisitions. The Company charged PFG a modest management fee to offset its reciprocal efforts to coordinate PFG’s affairs until control of PFG was acquired. In 2006 PFG was charged $9,000 in management fees. This management function has been largely carried out by the directors and large shareholders, at their own expense. The Company’s management team, affiliates and directors have special expertise in the areas of operations, due diligence, financial analysis and corporate finance strategy with respect to emerging growth enterprises. Additionally, the Company retains Dockside Capital Group to provide certain management functions and in so doing can also access its similar expertise.

A. Operating Results

Historically, the Company has shown modest losses for the past several years. These losses result largely from having little or no revenue and minimal operating expenses, rather than having significant operating and overhead expenses. In 2004 the Company elected to sell its passive investment, and this resulted in a loss that was somewhat greater than usual. Prior to the completion of the PFG acquisition, the expenses of the Company were almost completely related to satisfying regulatory requirements, including the annual meeting, financial reporting, communications with shareholders; and seeking and evaluating acquisition prospects for suitability and ability to attract financing.

With the June 30, 2006 completion of the PFG acquisition the Company’s expenses became more heavily weighted in favor of the exploration work and analysis being carried out on those properties. On May 31, 2010 the Company sold its interest in PFG and at December 31, 2010 no longer holds an interest in the Pinefalls Gold Property. The Company will continue in the exploration business via the April 2010 agreements to acquire rights to the Post Creek, Bell Lake, Woods Creek and Halcyon properties in the Sudbury, Ontario nickel belt; and the agreement to acquire 100% ownership of the high-grade Ni-Cu-PGE South Bay property near Thompson and the large grassroots Thompson North and Cedar Lake properties, which are part of the Thompson Nickel Belt.

As a result of initiatives that were announced on April 6, 2010, activities will shift from the Bissett area and precious metals, to base metals in and around Sudbury Ontario, and Thompson Manitoba.

Business overview

With the April 2010 entry into base metal exploration the Company is effectively a new company with its first focus on its two key Sudbury properties. The Post Creek property is strategically located adjacent to the producing Podolsky copper-nickel-platinum group metal deposit of FNX Mining. The center of the property occurs at UTM coordinates 510217m E, 5182584m N (NAD83 UTM Zone 17N. The property lies along the extension of the Whistle Offset dike structure, which is a major geological control for Ni-Cu-PGM mineralization. The Bell Lake property is a 256-acre property that covers approximately one kilometre

of the Mystery Offset dike or MOD. The MOD is interpreted to be an extension of the Worthington Offset dike which is a 10- to 11-kilometre-long mineralized structure that extends from the southwest margin of the Sudbury igneous complex. The Company also has rights to explore the Woods Creek and Halcyon properties in the Sudbury area; and has an agreement to acquire 100% ownership to the high-grade Ni-Cu-PGE South Bay property near Thompson and the large grassroots Thompson North and Cedar Lake properties, which are part of the world-class Thompson Nickel Belt in Manitoba.

The Company entered into an agreement with an independent entity to sell Outback Capital Inc., and its remaining interest in this property. This was done in order to prepare for the shift in focus from precious metals to base metals.

Fluctuations in Results

The Company’s annual operating results fluctuate, a little and revenues at this point are not generated. Expenses fluctuate on the basis of costs for exploration and related activities, and the ever increasing administrative and other costs of complying with the various regulatory requirements of a public company. We expect that these regulatory related expenses will continue to increase due to the upward pressure on professional fees charged to reporting companies, resulting from changes to securities legislation throughout North America.

With the April 2010 entry into the arena of base metal exploration the Company expects to report significant additional expenses in the future related to the exploration activities undertaken in the Sudbury area of Ontario and the Thompson Nickel Belt in Manitoba. Following the expected sale of Outback Capital Inc., the Company will have no further expenses related to exploration in the Bissett area.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since the Company is organized in Canada, the Company’s December 31, 2010 consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

As at December 31, 2010, the Company had accumulated losses totaling $14,311,794 and a working capital of $556,665. The continuation of the Company is dependent upon the continued financial support of shareholders as well as obtaining additional financing for the current and subsequent resource projects.

As noted, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might arise from uncertainty. The auditors’ report includes an explanatory paragraph disclosing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

As at December 31, 2010 the Company had cash of $659,227 and working capital of $556,665.

C. Research and development, patents and licenses, etc.

Not applicable

D. Trend information

The major trends impacting the company and its industry are lack of access to capital, caused by the severe global financial contraction, and the corresponding contraction of demand for most commodities. Only precious metals seem to have continuing and possibly increasing demand.

Impact of Inflation

The Company believes that inflation had minimal effect on costs related to its exploration activities in the 12 months ending December 31, 2010.

D. Exchange Controls

This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, and should not be interpreted as, legal advice to any prospective purchaser. Accordingly, prospective purchasers of the Company’s shares should consult with their own advisors with respect to their individual circumstances.

There are no laws or governmental decrees or regulations in Canada that restrict the export or import of capital, or which affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to holders of the Company’s securities who are not residents of Canada, other than withholding tax requirements. Reference is made to “Item 7. Taxation”.

There are no limitations imposed by the laws of Canada, the laws of Alberta or by the charter or other governing documents of the Company on the right of a non-resident to hold or vote common shares of the Company, other than as provided in the Investment Canada Act (the “Investment Act”) and the potential requirement for a Competition Act Review.

The following summarizes the principal features of the Investment Act and the Competition Act Review for a non-resident who proposes to acquire common shares. This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor is it, a substitute for independent advice from an investor’s own advisor. This summary does not anticipate statutory or regulatory amendments.

The Canadian Investment Act

The Canadian Investment Act generally prohibits implementation of a reviewable investment by an individual, government or agency thereof, corporation, partnership, trust or joint venture that is not a “Canadian” as defined in the Investment Act (a “non-Canadian”), unless, after review, the minister responsible for the Investment Act (the “Minister”) is satisfied that the investment is likely to be of a net benefit to Canada. Under the Investment Act, a United States citizen qualifies as a “World Trade Organization Investor.” Subject to the restrictions noted below, an investment in a Canadian business by a World Trade Organization Investor would be reviewable under the Investment Act only if it is an investment to acquire control of such Canadian business and the value of the assets of the Canadian business as shown on its financial statements is not less than a specified amount, which for 1999 was $184 million. An investment in the shares of a Canadian business by a non-Canadian other than a “World Trade Organization Investor” when the Company is not controlled by a World Trade Organization Investor, would be reviewable under the Investment Act if it is an investment to acquire control of the Canadian business and the value of the assets of the Canadian business as shown on its financial statements is $5 million or more, or if an order for review is made by the federal cabinet on the grounds that the investment relates to Canada’s cultural heritage or national identity.

The acquisition by a World Trade Organization Investor of control of a Canadian business in any of the following sectors is also subject to review if the value of the assets of the Canadian business exceeds $5 million (as shown on its financial statements): uranium, financial services (except insurance), transportation services and cultural businesses, which include broadcast media (publication, distribution or sale of books, magazines, periodicals, newspapers, music, film and video products and the exhibition of film and video products), television and radio services. As the Company’s business does not fall under any of the aforementioned categories, the acquisition of control of the Company, in excess of the $5 million threshold, by a World Trade Organization Investor would not be subject to such review.

A non-Canadian would acquire control of the Company for purposes of the Investment Act if the non-Canadian acquired a majority of the common shares.

The acquisition of less than a majority but one-third or more of the common shares would be presumed to be an acquisition of control of the Company unless it could be established that, on acquisition, the Company was not controlled in fact by the acquirer through the ownership of common shares. Notwithstanding the review provisions, any transaction involving the acquisition of control of a Canadian business or the establishment of a new business in Canada by a non-Canadian is a notifiable transaction and must be reported to Industry Canada by the non-Canadian making the investment either before or within thirty days after the investment.

Certain transactions relating to common shares are exempt from the Investment Act, including:

·	an acquisition of common shares by a person in the ordinary course of that person’s business as a trader or dealer in securities;

·	an acquisition of control of the Company in connection with the realization of security granted for a loan or other financial assistance and not for a purpose related to the provisions of the Investment Act; and

·	an acquisition of control of the Company by reason of an amalgamation, merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization, following which the ultimate direct or indirect control in fact of the Company, through the ownership of common shares, remained unchanged.

Canadian Competition Act Review

Investments giving rise to the acquisition or establishment, directly or indirectly, by one or more persons of control over, or a significant interest in the whole or part of a business of a competitor, supplier, customer or other person are subject to substantive review by Canada’s Competition Law Authority, the Director of Investigation and Research (the “Director”). If or when the Director concludes that a merger, whether by purchase or lease of shares or assets, by amalgamation or by combination, or otherwise, prevents or lessens, or is likely to prevent or lessen competition substantially, he may apply as may be necessary to eliminate the substantial lessening or prevention of competition. Such substantive merger review power applies to all mergers, whether or not they meet limits for pre-notification under the Competition Act.

In addition to substantive merger review, the Competition Act provides for a pre-notification regime respecting mergers of a certain size. The regime applies in respect of share acquisitions, asset acquisitions, amalgamations and combinations. For ease of reference, this filing refers specifically to share acquisition, although the pre-notification regime applies, with the appropriate modification, to other types of acquisition of control as well.

In order for a share acquisition transaction to be pre-notifiable, the parties to the transaction (being the person or persons who proposed to acquire shares, and the corporation the shares of which are to be acquired), together with their affiliates (being all firms with a 50% or more voting shares linkage up and down the chain) must have:

(i)	aggregate gross assets in Canada that exceed $400,000,000 in value, as shown on their audited financial statements for the most recently completed fiscal year (which must be within the last fifteen (15) months); or

(ii)	aggregate gross revenue from sales in, from or into Canada that exceed $400,000,000 for the most recently completed fiscal year shown on the said financial statements; and

(iii)

the party being acquired or corporations controlled by that party must have gross assets in Canada, or gross revenues from sales in or from Canada, exceeding $35,000,000 as shown on the said financial statements. Acquisition of shares carrying up to 20% of the votes of a publicly-traded corporation, or 35% of the votes in a private corporation, will not be subject to pre-notification, regardless of the above thresholds. However, exceeding the 20% or the 35% threshold, and again exceeding the 50% threshold, gives rise to an obligation of notification if the size threshold is met.

If a transaction is pre-notifiable, a filing must be made with the Director containing the prescribed information with respect to the parties, and a waiting period (either seven or twenty-one days, depending on whether a long or short form filing is chosen) must expire prior to closing.

As an alternative to pre-notification, the Director may grant an Advance Ruling Certificate, which exempts the transaction from pre-notification. Advance Ruling Certificates are granted where the Director concludes, based on the information provided to him, that he would not have sufficient grounds on which to apply to the Competition Tribunal to challenge the Merger.

E. Taxation

This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, and should not be interpreted as, legal or tax advice to any prospective purchaser or holder of the Company’s shares and no representation with respect to the Canadian federal income tax consequences to any such prospective purchaser is made. Accordingly, prospective purchasers of the Company’s shares should consult with their own tax advisors with respect to their individual circumstances.

The following summary describes the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to a holder of the Company’s shares who, for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Canadian Tax Act”) and the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention, 1980 (the “Convention”) and at all relevant times is resident in the United States and not resident in Canada, deals at arm’s length with the Company, holds the Company’s shares as capital property, and does not use or hold and is not deemed to use or hold the Company’s shares in or in the course of carrying on business in Canada (a “United States Holder”).

This following summary is based upon the current provisions of the Canadian Income Tax Act, the regulations thereunder, all specific proposals to amend the Canadian Tax Act and the regulations announced by the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof and the Company’s understanding of the published administrative practices of the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency (formerly Revenue Canada, Customs, Excise and Taxation). This summary does not take into account or anticipate any other changes in the governing law, whether by judicial, governmental or legislative decision or action, nor does it take into account the tax legislation or considerations of any province, territory or non-Canadian jurisdiction (including the United States), which legislation or considerations may differ significantly from those described herein.

Disposition of the Company’s Shares

In general, a United States shareholder will not be subject to Canadian income tax on capital gains arising on the disposition of the Company’s shares, unless such shares are “taxable Canadian property” within the meaning of the Canadian Income Tax Act and no relief is afforded under any applicable tax treaty. The shares of the Company would be taxable Canadian property of a non-resident if at any time during the five-year period immediately preceding a disposition by the non-resident of such shares, not less than 25% of the issued shares of any class or series of all classes of shares of the Company belonged to the non-resident, to persons with whom the non-resident did not deal at arm’s length, or to the non-resident and persons with whom the non-resident did not deal at arm’s length for purposes of the Canadian Income Tax Act. For this purpose, issued shares include options to acquire such shares (including conversion rights) held by such persons. Under the Convention, a capital gain realized by a resident of the United States will not be subject to Canadian tax unless the value of the shares of the Company is derived principally from real estate (as defined in the Convention) situated in Canada.

ITEM 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2010. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded as of December 31, 2010 that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of a company’s assets,

(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that a company’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of a company’s management and directors, and

(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of a company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives. 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 and procedures may deteriorate.

However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the company.

Management has used the framework set forth in the report entitled Internal Control—Integrated Framework published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, known as COSO, to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.

Our management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only our management’s report in this annual report on Form 20-F.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this annual report on Form 20-F that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Shareholders of North American Nickel Inc.
(formerly Widescope Resources Inc.)

We have audited the  consolidated  balance sheets of North American  Nickel Inc.
(formerly  Widescope  Resources  Inc.) as at December  31, 2010 and 2009 and the
consolidated  statements  of  operations  and  comprehensive  loss,  deficit and
accumulated  other  comprehensive  income  and cash  flows for the  years  ended
December  31,  2010,  2009 and 2008,  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 Canadian generally accepted
accounting principles, 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.  We were not engaged to perform an audit of the
Company's  internal  control  over  financial  reporting.  Our  audits  included
consideration  of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as a basis for
designing audit  procedures that are appropriate in the  circumstances,  but not
for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the  effectiveness  of the Company's
internal  control  over  financial  reporting.  Accordingly,  we express no such
opinion.

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. An audit also includes examining,  on a test basis,  evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements,
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  is  sufficient  and
appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

OPINION
In our opinion,  the consolidated  financial  statements  present fairly, in all
material  respects,  the  financial  position  of  North  American  Nickel  Inc.
(formerly  Widescope  Resources  Inc.) as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the
results of its  operations  and its cash flows for the years ended  December 31,
2010, 2009 and 2008 in accordance with Canadian  generally  accepted  accounting
principles.

EMPHASIS OF MATTER
Without qualifying our opinion,  we draw attention to Note 1 in the consolidated
financial  statements  which  indicates that the Company had incurred  losses to
date. This condition, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, indicates
the existence of a material  uncertainty that may cast  significant  doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

                                                                          "DMCL"

 NORTH AMERICAN NICKEL INC.
(formerly Widescope Resources Inc.)
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Year Ended December 31, 2010
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

North American Nickel Inc. (formerly  Widescope  Resources Inc.) (the "Company")
was incorporated on September 23, 1983.

The Company's  principal business activity is the exploration and development of
mineral  properties in Canada.  The Company has not yet determined whether these
properties  contain  ore  reserves  that  are  economically   recoverable.   The
recoverability  of amounts shown for mineral  property costs is dependent upon a
number of factors  including  environmental  risk, legal and political risk, the
existence of  economically  recoverable  mineral  reserves,  confirmation of the
Company's interests in the underlying mineral claims, the ability of the Company
to obtain necessary  financing to complete  exploration and development,  and to
attain sufficient net cash flow from future profitable production or disposition
proceeds.

On April 7, 2010, and effective May 31, 2010,  the Company  entered into a Stock
Purchase  Agreement  (the  "Purchase  Agreement")  whereby it agreed to sell its
65.42%  interest in Outback  Capital Inc. dba Pinefalls Gold ("PFG") (Note 4), a
private Alberta exploration  company. On April 19, 2010, the Company changed its
name from Widescope  Resources Inc. to North American Nickel Inc.,  consolidated
its  common  share  capital  on a 2:1 basis,  whereby  each two old shares  were
exchanged  for  one  new  share,  and  increased  its  authorized  capital  from
100,000,000  common  shares  without par value to an unlimited  number of common
shares  without  par value  (Note 7). All  references  to common  shares,  stock
options,  warrants and weighted  average  number of shares  outstanding in these
consolidated financial statements retroactively reflect the share consolidation.

These consolidated  financial statements have been prepared under the assumption
the  Company  is a  going  concern.  The  ability  of the  Company  to  continue
operations as a going concern is ultimately  dependent upon achieving profitable
operations.  To date, the Company has not generated  profitable  operations from
its resource activities and will need to invest additional funds in carrying out
its planned exploration,  development and operational  activities.  As a result,
additional  losses are anticipated.  The Company has working capital of $556,665
at  December  31,  2010 and has  accumulated  a deficit  of  $14,311,794.  These
financial   statements   do  not  include  any   adjustments   relating  to  the
recoverability  and  classification of recorded asset amounts and classification
of liabilities  that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue
as a going concern.

The  properties  in which  the  Company  currently  has an  interest  are in the
exploration  stage.  As such, the Company is dependent on external  financing to
fund its  activities.  In order to carry out the planned  exploration  and cover
administrative  costs,  the Company  will use its existing  working  capital and
raise  additional  amounts as needed.  The Company  will  continue to assess new
properties  and seek to acquire  interests in additional  properties if there is
sufficient  geologic or economic potential and if adequate  financial  resources
are available to do so.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation
These  financial  statements  have been  prepared in  accordance  with  Canadian
generally accepted accounting  principles ("Canadian GAAP"). Except as indicated
in Note 13, they also  comply,  in all  material  respects,  with United  States
generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP").

Basis of consolidation
These  financial  statements  have been  prepared  on a  consolidated  basis and
include the accounts of the Company and the total  operating  activities  of its
65.42% owned  subsidiary,  PFG, up to May 31, 2010,  when PFG was sold (Note 4).
All   intercompany   balances  and   transactions   have  been   eliminated   on
consolidation.

Estimates, assumptions and measurement uncertainty
The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  Canadian  GAAP
requires  management to make estimates and assumptions  that affect the reported

                                      F-7

2. SIGINIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - cont'd

Estimates, assumptions and measurement uncertainty - cont'd
amounts  of assets and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of  contingent  assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial  statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the period.  Actual results could differ from those
estimates.   By  their  nature,  these  estimates  are  subject  to  measurement
uncertainty  and the  effect on the  financial  statements  of  changes  in such
estimates in future periods could be significant.  Areas  requiring  significant
use of estimates by management relate to going concern assessments,  determining
the carrying value and or impairment of mineral properties, determining the fair
values of marketable  securities  and  stock-based  payments,  asset  retirement
obligations, financial instruments and tax rates used to calculate future income
tax balances.

Equipment
Equipment is recorded at cost.  Amortization  is calculated  using the following
annual rate, which is estimated to match the useful lives of the asset:

       Computer hardware           30% declining balance

Mineral properties and deferred exploration costs
The cost of mineral properties and related  exploration costs are deferred until
the properties are placed into production,  sold,  abandoned or until management
has determined that an impairment has occurred. Carrying costs will be amortized
over the useful life of the properties  following the commencement of commercial
production,  or written off if the  properties  are sold  abandoned,  allowed to
lapse,  or if management has otherwise  determined  that the carrying value of a
property is not  recoverable and should be impaired.  Properties  acquired under
option  agreements,  whereby  payments  are made at the sole  discretion  of the
Company,  are recorded in the accounts at such time as the payments are made. It
is  reasonably  possible  that  economically  recoverable  reserves  may  not be
discovered,  and accordingly a material portion of the carrying value of mineral
properties and related deferred exploration costs could be written off. Although
the Company has taken steps to verify  title to mineral  properties  in which it
has an interest,  according to the common  industry  standards  for the stage of
exploration of such properties,  these procedures do not guarantee the Company's
title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title
may be affected by undetected title defects.

The  amounts  shown  for  mineral  properties  and  deferred  exploration  costs
represent  costs incurred to date, net of  impairments,  and do not  necessarily
represent  present or future values which are entirely  dependent  upon economic
production or recovery from disposal.

Asset retirement obligations
The Company  follows the  provisions  of the  Canadian  Institute  of  Chartered
Accountants  ("CICA")  Handbook Section 3110,  "Asset  Retirement  Obligations",
which requires the estimated fair value of any asset  retirement  obligations to
be recognized as a liability in the period in which the related environmental or
retirement  liability can be reasonably  established  and measured.  The present
value of the associated future costs when measureable is recorded as a liability
and added to the cost of the related  property and amortized  over the estimated
remaining  life.  As of December  31, 2010 and 2009 the Company has not incurred
and is not aware of any significant  asset retirement  obligations in respect of
its mineral exploration properties.

Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company  follows the  recommendations  of the CICA  Handbook  Section  3063,
"Impairment  of  Long-Lived  Assets".  Section 3063  establishes  standards  for
recognizing,  measuring and disclosing  impairment of long-lived assets held for
use. The Company  conducts its impairment test on long-lived  assets when events
or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that the  carrying  amount  may not be
recoverable. Impairment is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset to be
held and used exceeds the  undiscounted  future net cash flows expected from its
use and disposal.  If there is impairment,  the impairment amount is measured as
the amount by which the  carrying  amount of the asset  exceeds  its fair value,
calculated  using  expected  discounted  cash flows when  independent  or quoted
market prices are not available.

2. SIGINIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - cont'd

Financial instruments
The Company  adopted the CICA Handbook  Section 3855,  "Financial  Instruments -
Recognition  and   Measurement".   Section  3855  prescribes  when  a  financial
instrument is to be  recognized  on the balance sheet and at what amount.  Under
Section  3855,  financial  instruments  must  be  classified  into  one of  five
categories:   held-for-trading,   held-to-maturity,   loans   and   receivables,
available-for-sale   financial  assets,  or  other  financial  liabilities.  All
financial instruments,  including derivatives, are measured at the balance sheet
date  at  fair  value  except  for  loans  and   receivables,   held-to-maturity
investments,  and other  financial  liabilities  which are measured at amortized
cost.

The Company's  financial  instruments consist of cash,  receivables,  marketable
securities, accounts payable and due to related parties. Unless otherwise noted,
it is  management's  opinion  that the  Company is not  exposed  to  significant
interest,  currency,  or credit risks arising from these financial  instruments.
The  Company  has  made  the   following   classifications   for  the  financial
instruments:

     Cash - held-for-trading; measured at fair value;
     Receivables - loans and receivables; measured at amortized cost;
     Marketable securities - available for sale; measured at fair value; and
     Accounts payable and due to related parties - other financial  liabilities;
     recorded at amortized cost.

Fair value  estimates  are made at the  balance  sheet  date,  based on relevant
market  information  and other  information  about  financial  instruments,  and
approximate carrying values unless otherwise noted. The Company does not use any
hedging instruments.

The Company  considers net smelter return ("NSR") and other  production  related
commitments   associated  with  mineral   property   interests  to  be  derivate
instruments.   Until  such  time  as  economically   recoverable  resources  are
identified such derivates are not considered to have reliably measurable value.

The  Company  adopted  CICA  Handbook  Section  3862  "Financial  Instruments  -
Disclosures"  which was amended to include  additional  disclosure  requirements
about fair value measurements of financial  instruments and to enhance liquidity
risk  disclosure.  The additional  fair value  measurement  disclosures  include
classification of financial inputs used in making the measurements, described as
follows:

Level 1 - Quoted prices  (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and
liabilities;
Level 2 -  Inputs  other  than  quoted  prices  included  in  Level  1 that  are
observable  for the asset or  liability,  either  directly  (i.e.  as prices) or
indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
Level 3 - Inputs  derived from  valuation  techniques  that include  inputs from
management  or other  sources for the asset or  liability  that are not based on
observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Comprehensive income (loss)
Effective  January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the CICA Handbook  Section 1530,
"Comprehensive Income".  Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in
equity from transactions and other events from non-owner  sources.  Section 1530
establishes  standards for reporting and presenting certain gains and losses not
normally  included in net income or loss,  such as  unrealized  gains and losses
related to available for sale securities and gains and losses resulting from the
translation  of   self-sustaining   foreign   operations,   in  a  statement  of
comprehensive income (loss).

At  December  31,  2009,  the Company  recognized  in  comprehensive  income its
proportionate share of an unrealized gain on marketable securities. In 2010, the
amount was reversed  through  operations  when the securities  were sold and the
gain was realized.

2. SIGINIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - cont'd

Loss per share
The loss per share figures are calculated  using the weighted  average number of
shares outstanding during the respective fiscal periods on a  post-consolidation
basis. The calculation of loss per share figures using the treasury stock method
considers the  potential  exercise of  outstanding  share  purchase  options and
warrants or other  contingent  issuances to the extent each  option,  warrant or
contingent  issuance was dilutive.  For all periods presented,  diluted loss per
share is equal to basic  loss per share as the  potential  effects  of  options,
warrants and conversions are anti-dilutive.

Income taxes
The Company  accounts  for income  taxes using the asset and  liability  method,
whereby future tax assets and  liabilities  are recognized for the future income
tax consequences  attributable to differences between the carrying values of the
asset and liabilities and their respective  income tax bases.  Future income tax
assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted income tax rates
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary  differences
are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on future  income taxes and
liabilities  of a change  in  rates,  when a  valuation  allowance  has not been
applied,  is included in operations in the period that includes the  substantive
enactment  date.  Where the  probability of a realization of a future income tax
asset is more likely than not, a valuation allowance is recorded.

Stock-based compensation
The Company follows the CICA Handbook  Section 3870,  "Stock-based  Compensation
and Other Stock-based Payments," which requires the fair value method of valuing
all grants of stock  options.  The estimated  fair value of the stock options is
recorded as compensation expense over the vesting period or at the date of grant
if the  options  vest  immediately,  with the  offset  recorded  in  contributed
surplus.  The fair value of options  granted is  estimated  at the date of grant
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model incorporating assumptions regarding
risk-free  interest  rates,  dividend yield,  volatility  factor of the expected
market price of the Company's stock, and a weighted average expected life of the
options.  Any consideration paid on the exercise of stock options is credited to
share  capital,  together with a reversal of  corresponding  amounts  originally
credited to contributed surplus.

Credit risk and the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities
In January 2009,  the CICA approved EIC 173,  "Credit Risk and the Fair Value of
Financial Assets and Liabilities".  This guidance clarified that an entity's own
credit risk and the credit risk of the counterparty should be taken into account
in  determining  the fair value of financial  assets and  financial  liabilities
including derivative instruments.

Mining exploration costs
In March  2009 the  CICA  approved  EIC 174,  "Mining  Exploration  Costs".  The
guidance clarified that an enterprise that has initially capitalized exploration
costs has an obligation in the current and subsequent accounting periods to test
such  costs for  recoverability  whenever  events or  changes  in  circumstances
indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable.

Recent accounting pronouncements - Not yet adopted

International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS")
In February  2008,  the  Canadian  Accounting  Standards  Board  confirmed  that
publicly  accountable  enterprises  will  be  required  to  adopt  International
Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") in place of Canadian GAAP for interim and
annual  reporting  purposes  for fiscal years  beginning on or after  January 1,
2011.  Accordingly,  the Company  will  transition  from current  Canadian  GAAP
reporting and commence  reporting under IFRS for the first quarter of 2011, with
restatement of comparative information presented.

The Company developed a conversion plan consisting of four key stages including;
project planning and preliminary  assessment,  detailed  assessment,  design and

implementation.  The project planning and preliminary  assessment stage has been
completed.  The  preliminary  assessment  was completed  with the  assistance of
external advisors and training and outlines the significant  differences between
Canadian  GAAP  and  IFRS  and  rates  the  impact  of each  of the  significant
differences on the entity's financial  statements,  thereby allowing the Company
to focus the detailed assessment on the highest priority items.

Consolidated  Financial  Statements,  Business  Combinations and Non-controlling
Interests
In  January  2009,  the  CICA  issued  Section  1601,   "Consolidated  Financial
Statements",  and  Section  1602,  "Noncontrolling  Interests",  which  together
replace the existing  Section 1600,  "Consolidated  Financial  Statements",  and
provide  the  Canadian  equivalent  to  International  Accounting  Standard  27,
"Consolidated  and Separate  Financial  Statements".  The new  sections  will be
applicable to the Company on January 1, 2011.  Earlier  adoption is permitted as
of the  beginning  of a fiscal  year,  in which case an entity  would also early

resulting in a gain of $3,854.  Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement,  the Company

December 31, 2010 (Note 4). The Company previously  classified the investment as
available-for-sale.

4. MINERAL PROPERTIES AND DEFERRED EXPLORATION COSTS

Title  to  mining  properties   involves  certain  inherent  risks  due  to  the
difficulties of determining  the title and extraction  rights of certain claims,
as well as the  potential  for problems  arising from the  frequently  ambiguous
conveyance  history  characteristic of many mining  properties.  The Company has
investigated  title to all of its  mineral  properties  and,  to the best of its
knowledge, title to all of its properties are in good standing.

During the year  ending  December  31, 2010 the  Company  had  $677,718  (2009 -
$101,000) in property  expenditures as detailed in the consolidated  schedule of
mineral properties and deferred exploration costs.

At December 31,  2010,  the Company  held an interest in the  following  mineral
properties:

agreement in April 2005, the Company acquired the net assets of PFG including an
interest  in the  Pinefalls  Gold  Property,  located  in the  Bissett  Area  of
Manitoba,  valued  at  $319,306.  The  Company  held a 65.42%  interest  in PFG,
effective June 30, 2006.

e)   Stock options

The Company has entered into a Stock  Option Plan (the  "Plan"),  providing  the
authority to grant options to  directors,  officers,  employees and  consultants
enabling them to acquire up to 10% of the issued and outstanding common stock of
the Company. Under the Plan, the exercise price of each option equals the market
price or a discounted  price of the Company's stock as calculated on the date of
grant. The options can be granted for a maximum term of 10 years.

The Company  calculates the fair value of all  stock-based  compensation  awards
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company granted 3,300,000 incentive
stock  options to  directors,  officers  and  employees.  The  granting of these
options  resulted in  stock-based  compensation  expense of  $182,500  which was
recorded as  stock-based  compensation  expense on the statements of operations.
The options granted vested upon issuance.

8. INCOME TAXES

The Company has approximately  $572,000 in non-capital losses that can be offset
against  taxable  income in future years which began  expiring at various  dates
commencing in 2009,  and  approximately  $157,000 in capital losses which may be
available to offset future  taxable  capital gains which can be carried  forward
indefinitely.  The  potential  future tax  benefit of these  losses has not been
recorded as a full-future tax asset valuation allowance has been provided due to
the uncertainty regarding the realization of these losses.

The related  potential  income tax benefits with respect to these items have not
been recorded in the accounts.

9. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company manages its capital  structure,  which consists of share and working
capital,  and  makes  adjustments  to it,  based on the funds  available  to the
Company,  in order to support the  acquisition,  exploration  and development of
mineral  properties.  The Board of  Directors  does not  establish  quantitative
return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of
the Company's management to sustain future development of the business.

The  properties  in which  the  Company  currently  has an  interest  are in the
exploration  stage;  as such the Company is dependent  on external  financing to
fund its activities.  In order to carry out the planned  exploration and pay for
administrative  costs,  the  Company  will  spend  its  existing  cash and raise
additional amounts as needed. The Company will continue to assess new properties
and seek to acquire interests in additional properties.

Management  reviews its  capital  management  approach  on an ongoing  basis and
believes that this approach,  given the relative size and nature of the Company,
is reasonable.

There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the
years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. The Company is not exposed to externally
imposed capital requirements.

10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK FACTORS

The Company's  financial  instruments consist of cash,  receivables,  marketable
securities,  accounts payable and due to related parties.  The carrying value of
these  financial  instruments  approximates  their fair value.  Cash is measured
based on Level 1 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company is engaged  primarily in the mineral  exploration  field and manages
related industry risk issues directly.

The  Company  is  potentially  at  risk  for   environmental   reclamation   and
fluctuations in commodity based market prices  associated with resource property
interests. Management is of the opinion that the Company addresses environmental
risk and compliance in accordance with industry  standards and specific  project
environmental  requirements.  There is no certainty that all environmental risks
and contingencies have been addressed.

The Company's primary risk exposures are summarized below:

Credit risk
The Company's credit risk is primarily  attributable to its cash accounts.  This
risk is managed  through the use of major  banks  which are high credit  quality
financial institutions as determined by rating agencies. The Company's secondary
exposure to credit risk is on its  receivables.  Receivables  include  primarily
goods and services  tax due from the Federal  Government  of Canada.  Management
believes  that the  Company  has no  significant  concentration  of credit  risk
arising from operations

Liquidity risk
The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have
sufficient  liquidity to meet third party  liabilities when due. The Company has
working  capital  of  $556,665  at  December  31,  2010.  All of  the  Company's
liabilities have contractual  maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to
normal trade terms.  The Company is dependent on  management's  ability to raise
additional funds so that it can manage its financial obligations. The ability to
raise  funds in capital  markets is  impacted  by  general  market and  economic
conditions and the commodity markets in which the Company conducts business.

Market risk
(a) Interest rate risk
The Company has cash balances and no interest-bearing  debt therefore,  interest
rate risk is minimal.

(b) Foreign currency risk
The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar and major purchases are
transacted in Canadian dollars: therefore, foreign currency risk is minimal.

11. SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION

The Company incurred non-cash financing and investing activities during the year
ended December 31, 2010 as follows:

                                                             2010           2009

13. RECONCILIATION BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED
    ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES - cont'd

(a) Interest in unproven mineral properties

In accordance  with Canadian  GAAP,  the cost of mineral  properties and related
exploration and  development  costs are deferred until the properties are placed
into  production,  sold,  abandoned or  management  has  determined  there to be
impairment.

In accordance with US GAAP,  mineral  property  acquisition  costs are initially
capitalized when incurred and the carrying value of intangible  assets and other
long-lived  assets is reviewed on a regular  basis for the existence of facts or
circumstances that may suggest  impairment.  The Company  recognizes  impairment
when the sum of the  expected  undiscounted  future  cash flows is less than the
carrying amount of the asset.  Mineral property  exploration costs are generally
expensed as incurred until commercially minable deposits are determined to exist
within a particular property as cash flows cannot be reasonably  estimated prior
to such determination.

Accordingly,  for all periods  presented,  the Company has  expensed all mineral
property  exploration  costs for US GAAP. During 2009, the Company optioned some
of its mineral property  interest.  Under Canadian GAAP, the Company will record
the option proceeds against the carrying value of the mineral property while for
US GAAP,  the Company  will record the option  proceeds as a recovery of mineral
property costs on the statement of operations.

(b) Mineral property costs incurred

Under Canadian GAAP,  cash flows relating to mineral  property  acquisition  and
exploration  costs and  option  proceeds  received  are  reported  as  investing
activities.  Under  US GAAP,  exploration  costs  are  classified  as  operating
activities.  The  net  cash  provided  by  (used  in)  operating  and  investing
activities has been adjusted accordingly for all periods presented.

(c) Loss on sale of subsidiary

As  described  in (a)  above,  there  is a  difference  between  the  basis  for
capitalization, expensing and mineral property exploration and development costs
between  Canadian  GAAP and US GAAP. To the extent that mineral  properties  are
owned by the  Company's  subsidiary,  this  difference  gives rise to  different
carrying  values in the subsidiary  mineral  properties and the  non-controlling
interests  in the  Company's  subsidiary  under US GAAP as  compared to Canadian
GAAP. Accordingly, upon sale of the underlying subsidiary, the resulting gain or
loss is different between Canadian GAAP and US GAAP.

(d) Income taxes

Under US GAAP, the effect on deferred tax assets and  liabilities of a change in
tax rates is  recognized  in income in the period that  includes  the  enactment
date.  Under Canadian GAAP, the effect of a change in tax rates is recognized in
the period of substantive enactment. The application of this difference under US
GAAP does not result in a material  difference  between  future  income taxes as
recorded under Canadian GAAP.

(e) Recent accounting pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06,  Improving  Disclosures about Fair
Value  Measurements,  which  is  included  in the  ASC  Topic  820  (Fair  Value
Measurements  and  Disclosures).  ASU 2010-06  requires new  disclosures  on the
amount  and  reason  for  transfers  in and  out  of  Level  1 and 2 fair  value
measurements.  ASU 2010-06 also requires  disclosures of  activities,  including

purchases,  sales,  issuances,  and a  settlement  within  Level  3  fair  value
measurements  and  clarifies  existing  disclosure  requirements  on  levels  of
disaggregation  and  disclosures  about  inputs and  valuation  techniques.  ASU
2010-06 is effective for interim and annual  reporting  periods  beginning after
December 15, 2009 except for the disclosures about purchases,  sales, issuances,
and  settlements  in the  roll  forward  of  activity  in  Level  3  fair  value
measurements.  Those  disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2010,  and for interim  periods  within  those  fiscal  years.  The
implementation  of the adoption of ASU 2010-06 has not had a material  impact on
the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In February  2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09,  "Subsequent  Events (Topic 855)
Amendments to Certain  Recognition and Disclosure  Requirements".  The amendment
eliminates  the  requirement  for SEC filers to disclose the date through  which
subsequent  events  have  been  evaluated.  This  standard  had no impact on the
Company's consolidated financial statements.

There are several new accounting pronouncements issued by FASB which are not yet
effective.  Each of these  pronouncements,  as  applicable,  has been or will be
adopted by the  Company.  Management  does not believe  any of these  accounting
pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company's financial
position or operating results.

14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

common shares pursuant to the Post Creek Property option agreement, paid $15,000
and issued  150,000 common shares  pursuant to the Woods Creek  Property  option
