The GIC is non-redeemable until May 7, 2010 and bears an interest rate of 3.25% and has been pledged as collateral to support a letter of credit issued by a secured lender.

Notes Receivable

Notes receivable are classified as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity, depending on our intent with respect to holding such investments. If it is readily determinable, notes receivable classified as available-for-sale is accounted for at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported net of tax as a component of other comprehensive income within stockholders’ equity. Interest income is recognized when earned.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”), which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee services. Under the provisions of SFAS 123(R), stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employees’ requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).

Comprehensive Income

SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. As of September 30, 2009, the Company’s only component of comprehensive income is foreign currency translation adjustments.

Long Term Assets

Mineral Properties

The Company has been in the exploration stage since its inception on March 29, 2005, and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. The Company expenses all costs related to the maintenance, development and exploration of mineral claims in which it has secured exploration rights prior to establishment of proven and probable reserves. To date, the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of its exploration prospects; therefore, all exploration costs are being expensed.

Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred using the guidance in EITF 04-02, “Whether Mineral Rights Are Tangible or Intangible Assets.” The Company assesses the carrying cost for impairment under SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets” at each fiscal quarter end. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated lie of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.

Fixed Assets

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are amortized over their estimated useful lives at the following annual rates, with half the rate being applied in the period of acquisition:

Computer equipment 30% declining balance

Equipment 20% declining balance

Furniture and fixtures 20% declining balance

Income Taxes

Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 as of its inception. Pursuant to SFAS No. 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future periods; and accordingly is offset by a valuation allowance. FIN No.48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition ad measurement of tax positions taken into in tax returns.

To the extent interest and penalties may be assessed by taxing authorities on any underpayment of income tax, such amounts would be accrued and classified as a component of income tax expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company elected this accounting policy, which is a continuation of our historical policy, in connection with our adoption of FIN 48.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s functional currency is the United States dollar. The consolidated financial statements of the Company are translated to United States dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52 “Foreign Currency Translation” (“SFAS No. 52). Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the consolidated balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Mexican pesos and Peruvian sols. The Company has not, to the date of these financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

The functional currencies of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are the Mexican peso, the Canadian Dollar, and Peruvian sol. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are translated to United States dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52 using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues and expenses. Translation gains (losses) are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in current operations.

Asset Retirement Obligation

The Company has adopted SFAS No. 143 “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”, which requires that an asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset be recognized as a liability in the period in which it is incurred and becomes determinable, with an offsetting increase in the carrying amount of the associated asset. The cost of the tangible asset, including the initially recognized ARO, is depleted, such that the cost of the ARO is recognized over the useful life of the asset. The ARO is recorded at fair value, and accretion expense is recognizable over time as the discounted liability is accreted to its expected settlement value. The fair value of the ARO is measured using expected future cash flow, discounted at the Company’s credit-adjusted-risk-free interest rate. To date, no material asset retirement obligation exists due to the early stage of the Company’s mineral exploration. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded.

Environmental Protection and Reclamation Costs

The operations of the Company have been, and may in the future be affected from time to time in varying degrees by changes in environmental regulations, including those for future removal and site restoration costs. Both the likelihood of new regulations and their overall effect upon the Company may vary from region to region and are not predictable.

Environmental expenditures that relate to ongoing environmental and reclamation programs are charged against statements of operations as incurred or capitalized and amortized depending upon their future economic benefits. The Company does not anticipate any material capital expenditures for environmental control facilities.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share”. SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS give effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. The basic and diluted EPS has been retroactively restated to take into effect the 2 for 1 stock split that occurred on July 11, 2005.

Concentration of Credit and Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit and foreign exchange risk consist principally of cash, deposited with a high quality credit institution and amounts receivable, mainly representing value added tax recoverable from a foreign government. Management does not believe that the Company is subject to significant credit or foreign exchange risk from these financial instruments.

Fair Value Option for Financial Assets

On July 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other assets and liabilities at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis (fair value option) with changes in fair value reported in earnings. The adoption of SFAS 159 had no impact on the financial statements as management did not elect the fair value option for any other financial instruments or other assets and liabilities.

Accounting Standards Adopted

In March 2008, the FASB issued ASC 815, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal periods beginning after November 15, 2008.

Effective July 1, 2009, we adopted the amended provisions of ASC 815 on determining what types of instruments or embedded features in an instrument held by a reporting entity can be considered indexed to its own stock for the purpose of evaluating the first criteria of the scope exception in ASC 815. Warrants and options issued in prior periods with exercise prices denominated in Canadian dollars are no longer considered indexed to our stock, as their exercise price is not in the Company’s functional currency of the US dollar, and therefore no longer qualify for the scope exception and must be accounted for as a derivative. These warrants and options are reclassified as liabilities under the caption “Warrant liability” and recorded at estimated fair value at each reporting date, computed using the Black-Scholes valuation method. Changes in the liability from period to period are recorded in the Statements of Operations under the caption “Change in fair value of warrant liability.” On July 1, 2009, we recorded a cumulative effect adjustment based on the grant date fair value of warrants issued during the year ended June 30, 2009 that were outstanding at July 1, 2009 and the change in fair value of the warrant liability from the issuance date through to July 1, 2009.

2.	Principal Accounting Policies: (Continued)

We have elected to record the change in fair value of the warrant liability as a component of other income and expense on the statement of operations as we believe the amounts recorded relate to financing activities and not as a result of our operations.

We recorded the following cumulative effect of change in accounting principal pursuant to its adoption of the amendment as of July 1, 2009:

	Contributed surplus		Warrant liability			Accumulated deficit
Grant date fair value of previously issued warrants outstanding as of July 1, 2009		3,612,865		(3,612,865	)		—
Change in fair value of previously issued warrants outstanding as of July 1, 2009		—		(12,637,875	)		12,637,875
Cumulative effect of change in accounting principal		3,612,865		(16,250,740	)		12,637,875

In addition, we have recorded a gain related to the change in fair value of the warrant liability of $3,088,287 on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the period ended September 30, 2009.

Fair Value Measurements

On July 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”) as it relates to financial assets and financial liabilities. In February 2008, the FASB staff issued Staff Position No. 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (“FSP FAS 157-2”). FSP FAS 157-2 delayed the effective date of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The provisions of FSP FAS 157-2 are effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning July 1, 2009.

SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This standard is now the single source in GAAP for the definition of fair value, except for the fair value of leased property as defined in SFAS 13. SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS 157 are described below:

2.	Principal Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Fair Value Measurements (continued)

Level 1	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2	Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3	Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by SFAS 157, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

	Fair Value at September 30, 2009								June 30, 2009
	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Assets	$		$		$		$		$
Cash equivalents		1,851,389		1,851,389		−		−		7,040,999
Accounts receivable		368,611		368,611		−		−		221,267
Notes receivable		91,365				91,265				91,365
GIC		1,045,615		1,045,775		−		−		1,063,772
Liabilities
Warrant liability		13,162,453		−		−		13,162,453		−

The Company’s cash equivalents and GIC are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices. The cash equivalents that are valued based on quoted market prices in active markets are primarily comprised of commercial paper, short-term certificates of deposit and U.S. Treasury securities. The accounts receivable represent amounts due from a national government regarding refund of taxes. The notes receivable is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Fair Value Measurements (continued)

The estimated fair value of warrants and options accounted for as liabilities was determined on the date of closing and marked to market at each financial reporting period. The change in fair value of the warrants and options is recorded in the statement of operations as a gain (loss) and is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following inputs:

	September 30, 2009
Risk free interest rate	0.80%
Expected life of warrants and options	1-2 years
Expected stock price volatility	78% to 107%
Expected dividend yield	0%

The changes in fair value of the warrants during the period ended September 30, 2009 were as follows:

Balance at July 1, 2009	16,250,740
Issuance of warrants and options	-
Change in fair value recorded in earnings	(3,088,287)
Transferred to equity upon exercise	-
Balance at September 30, 2009	13,162,453

3.	Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

(i)	Business Combinations

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS 141R). SFAS 141R significantly changes the accounting for business combinations in a number of areas including the treatment of contingent consideration, preacquisition contingencies, transaction costs, in-process research and development, and restructuring costs. In addition, under SFAS 141R, changes in an acquired entity's deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions after the measurement period will impact income tax expense. SFAS 141R is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2008. We have adopted SFAS 141R on July 1, 2009. This standard will change our accounting treatment for business combinations on a prospective basis.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “No controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51” (“SFAS 160”), which establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the no controlling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest and the valuation of retained non-controlling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. The Statement also establishes reporting requirements that provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2008. We have adopted SFAS 160 on July 1, 2009. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

SFAS 161

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 161). SFAS 161 amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. It requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company has adopted SFAS 161 on July 1, 2009. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(iii)

SFAS 162

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (SFAS 162). This statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of non-governmental entities that are presented in accordance with GAAP. With the issuance of this statement, the FASB concluded that the GAAP hierarchy should be directed toward the entity and not its auditor, and reside in the accounting literature established by the FASB as opposed to the

American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement on Auditing Standards No. 69, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” This statement is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” The Company has evaluated the new statement and has determined that it will not have a significant impact on the determination or reporting of the Company’s financial results.

(iv)

SFAS 163

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, "Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60." SFAS 163 requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default (insured event) when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. This Statement also clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities. Those clarifications will increase comparability in financial reporting of financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises. This Statement requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. The accounting and disclosure requirements of the Statement will improve the quality of information provided to users of financial statements. SFAS 163 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted SFAS 160 on July 1, 2009. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operation.

SFAS 165

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, "Subsequent Events," which establishes general standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before

the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The pronouncement requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued. SFAS 165 is effective with interim and annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. We have adopted SFAS 160 on July 1, 2009. Adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

(vi)

SFAS166

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement” (“SFAS 166”). SFAS No. 166 is intended to establish standards of financial reporting for the transfer of assets and transferred assets to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability. SFAS 166 was established to clarify derecognition of assets under FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. SFAS No. 166 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2009. We will adopt SFAS 166 on July 1, 2010. The Company has determined that the adoption of SFAS No. 166 will have no impact will have on its consolidated financial statements.

(vii)

SFAS 167

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” (“SFAS No. 167”). SFAS No. 167 eliminates the exception to consolidate a qualifying special-purpose entity, changes the approach to determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and requires companies to more frequently re-assess whether they must consolidate variable interest entities. Under the new guidance, the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity is identified qualitatively as the enterprise that has both (a) the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. SFAS No. 167 becomes effective for the Company’s fiscal 2011 year-end and interim reporting periods thereafter. The Company does not expect SFAS No. 167 to have a material impact on its financial statements.

SFAS 168

In July 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, "FASB Accounting Standards Codification" ("SFAS 168"), as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Codification is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. All existing accounting standards are superseded as described in SFAS 168. All other accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS 168 but does not expect the adoption of SFAS 168 to impact the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

(ix)

APB 141

In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)” (“FSP 14-1”). FSP 14-1 applies to convertible debt instruments that, by their stated terms, may be settled in cash (or other assets) upon conversion, including partial cash settlement, unless the embedded conversion option is required to be separately accounted for as a derivative under FASB Statement No. 133. Convertible debt instruments within the scope of FSP 14-1 are not addressed by the existing APB 14. FSP 14-1 would require that the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments within the scope of FSP 14-1 be separately accounted for in a manner that reflects the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. This will require an allocation of the convertible debt proceeds between the liability component and the embedded conversion option (i.e., the equity component). The difference between the principal amount of the debt and the amount of the proceeds allocated to the liability component would be reported as a debt discount and subsequently amortized to earnings over the instrument’s expected life using the effective interest method. FSP APB 14-1 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning July 1, 2009 and will be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. Adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

7.	Mineral Properties (Continued):

San Miguel Project

The Company has an option to acquire a 100% in the La Blanca property located in Guazaparez, Chihuahua, Mexico. Pursuant to the option agreement, payments of $180,000 have been made. Furthermore, the company must pay a royalty of $1.00 for each ounce proven or probable gold reserves. No gold reserves have been discovered as at September 30, 2009. The Company has incurred $500,000 in exploration expenses.

The Company has a 100% interest in the Santa Cruz mining concession located in the San Miguel Project, subject to satisfactory title transfer. The terms of the agreement called for payments of $50,000 prior to March 7, 2006 and all required payments were made by the Company. The option also includes a 3% NSR payable to optioner. This concession was acquired as part of the San Miguel asset project purchased from Tara Gold.

Temoris

On March 19, 2009 the company closed an agreement with Garibaldi Resources Corp. in which the company acquired the outstanding option on the Temoris project. The option covers an area of approximately 54,000 hectares adjacent to the San Miguel groupings and Andrea project. In consideration for the acquisition, the company paid Garibaldi $400,000 and issued six million shares of the company’s common stock (with legend). The shares of Common stock were delivered to an escrow agent who will release 500,000 shares of common stock six months from the date of closing and an additional 500,000 shares of common stock every three months thereafter.

On February 12, 2009, the company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Magnetic Resources Ltd. (“Magnetic”). Magnetic is the sole beneficial stockholder of Minera Gama, S.A. de C.V. which holds interest in various mineral concessions in Mexico known as the Temoris Project and the Morelos Project and also holds a royalty of the Iris Project.

In consideration for the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common shares (which was 8.4 million) of Magnetic and the assumption and discharge of the stockholder loans, the company issued to the stockholders of Magnetic 1,350,000 shares of the company’s common stock valued at $675,000 and an advisor was paid a finder’s fee of 200,000 common shares of the company valued at $100,000. All shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s Shelf Registration Statement.

These financial statements reflect income earned and expenses incurred of Magnetic Resources Ltd. as of February 12, 2009. The following is the purchase price allocation at date of acquisition:

7.	Mineral Properties (continued):

Andrea

The Company staked the Andrea mining concession located in the Guazaparez mining district in Chihuahua, Mexico for a cost of $20,000.

d.	Vidette Lake, Canada

Paramount entered into an option agreement to acquire an interest in the Vidette Lake Gold Mine in British Columbia, Canada. Paramount issued 500,000 common shares to earn an initial 25% interest and can earn a further 25% interest by expending $300,000 of exploration expenditures, making a cash payment of $100,000 and by issuing an additional 100,000 common shares. Once Paramount has increased its interest to 50% it may increase its interest to 90% any time prior to December 31, 2010 by expending an additional sum of $600,000 on exploration and issuing 400,000 common shares. Once Paramount has increased its interest to 90% and exercises its option, a joint venture agreement will be created.

On May 19, 2009 the Company entered into a letter of agreement with Mexoro Minerals Ltd. to acquire all its legal and beneficial interest to 12 mining concessions adjacent to Paramount’s San Miguel Project resource areas in Chihuahua, Mexico . The purchase price is $3.7 million and all underlying property payments are to be deferred for 36 months and further, if Paramount or its assets are sold within this period an additional payment will be made to the vendors. Any amounts owing to Paramount by Mexoro on closing will be paid out of the closing proceeds. During the period ending September 30, 2009, the purchase price was deposited into an escrow account pending satisfaction of all due diligence issues.

11.	Employee Stock Option Plan:

On August 23, 2007, the board and stockholders approved the 2007/08 Stock Incentive & Compensation Plan thereby reserving an additional 4,000,000 common shares for issuance to employees, directors and consultants.

On February 24, 2009 the stockholders approved the 2008/09 Stock Incentive & Equity Compensation Plan thereby reserving an additional 3,000,000 common shares for future issuance. The stockholders also approved the re-pricing of the exercise price of all outstanding stock options to $0.65 per share.

Changes in the Company’s stock options for the period ending September 30, 2009 are summarized below:

	Number		Weighted Avg. Exercise Price
Balance, beginning of period		4,487,000	$	0.97

Issued		125,000		1.29
Cancelled		-		-
Exercised		-		-
Granted		-		-

Balance, end of period		4,612,000	$	0.98

At September 30, 2009, there were 3,777,000 exercisable options outstanding. Options outstanding above that have not been vested at year end amount to 835,000 which have a maximum service term of 1- 4 years and weighted average exercise price of $1.46. The vesting of these options is dependent on market conditions which have yet to be met.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value stock options granted. The Black-Scholes model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. The model requires management to make estimates, which are subjective and may not be representative of actual results. Changes in assumptions can materially affect estimates of fair values. For purposes of the calculation, the following assumptions were used:

	September 30, 2009	September 30, 2008
Risk free interest rate	.040% - .47%	0.50% - .91%
Expected dividend yield	0%	0%
Expected stock price volatility	114% - 116%	121% - 123%
Expected life of options	1 year	1 to 2 years

Set out below are the material adjustments to net loss for the period ending September 30, 2009 and 2008 and to stockholders’ equity at September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009 in order to conform to accounting principles generally accepted in Canada (“Canadian GAAP”).

12.	Differences Between US and Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (Continued):

(a) Interest in Exploration Properties and Deferred Exploration Costs

Under U.S. GAAP, acquisition costs are capitalized, but exploration costs are not considered to have the characteristics of property, plant and equipment and, accordingly, are expensed prior to the Company determining that economically proven and probable mineral reserves exist, after which all such costs are capitalized.

Under Canadian GAAP, acquisition and exploration expenditures on properties less recoveries in the pre-production stage are deferred until such time as the properties are put into commercial production, sold or become impaired. On the commencement of commercial production, the deferred costs are charged to operations on the unit-of-production method based upon estimated recoverable proven and probable reserves. General exploration expenditures are charged to operations in the period in which they are incurred. The Company recognizes the payment or receipt of payment required under option agreements when paid or received.

(b) Statement of Cash Flows

As a result of the treatment of mining interests under item (a) above, cash expended for the exploration costs would have been classified as investing rather than operating, resulting in the following totals under Canadian GAAP:

	September 30, 2009			September 30, 2008

Cash used in operating activities	$	( 654,400	)	$	( 943,562	)
Cash used in investing activities		(4,564,029	)		(2,537,766	)

International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)

In 2006, the Canadian Accounting Standards Board (“AcSB”) published a new strategic plan that will significantly affect financial reporting requirements for Canadian companies. The AcSB strategic plan outlines the convergence of Canadian GAAP with IFRS over an expected five period transitional period. In February 2008 the AcSB announced that 2011 is the changeover date for publicly-listed companies to use IFRS, replacing Canada’s own GAAP. The date is for interim and annual financial statements relating to fiscal periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011. The transition date of January 1, 2011 will require the restatement for comparative purposes of amounts reported by the Company for the period ended December 31, 2010. While the Company has begun assessing the adoption of IFRS for 2011, the financial reporting impact of the transition to IFRS cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

12.	Differences Between US and Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (Continued):

Capital Disclosures

As a result of new Section 1535, Capital Disclosures, the Company will be required to include additional information in the notes to the financial statements about its capital and the manner in which it is managed. This additional disclosure includes quantitative and qualitative information regarding an entity’s objectives, policies and procedures for managing capital.

Disclosure and Presentation of Financial Instruments

New accounting recommendations for disclosure and presentation of financial instruments are effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2008. The new recommendations require disclosures of both qualitative and quantitative information that enables users of financial statements to evaluate the nature and extent of risks from financial instruments to which the Company is exposed.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Accounting Standards Board has also issued a new Section 3064, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, to replace current Section 3062, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The new section establishes revised standards for recognizing, measuring, presenting and disclosing goodwill and intangible assets. Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants Handbook Section 3064 is effective for fiscal periods beginning on or after October 1, 2008. The company has adopted Section 3064 on July 1, 2009. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

13.	Klondex Mines Ltd.

On July 20, 2009 the Company and Klondex Mines Ltd.(“Klondex”) entered into a binding letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) to combine the two companies under a plan of arrangement, subject to stockholders approvals. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, each Klondex share was to have been exchanged for 1.45 Paramount shares, implying a purchase price of C$2.32 per Klondex share using closing share prices on the TSX on July 17, 2009. Both Paramount and Klondex had agreed to obtain support agreements from each of their respective directors and certain of their stockholders to vote any shares which they control in favor of the Transaction.

Under the terms of the Transaction, Klondex stockholders were to have received 1.45 shares of common stock of Paramount for each common share of Klondex. All options and warrants of Klondex outstanding at the time of the Transaction were to be exchanged for options and warrants of Paramount on the same basis. On closing of the Transaction Klondex was to have become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Paramount. Following closing of the Transaction, one Klondex director was to have joined Paramount Board of Directors. The letter agreement setting out the Transaction included a commitment by Klondex not to solicit alternative transactions to the proposed Transaction. Paramount was also been provided with certain other rights customary for a transaction of this nature, including the right to match competing offers made to Klondex.

13.	Klondex Mines Ld. (continued):

The letter agreement also provides a reciprocal break fee of US$2.85 million to be payable by each of the parties under certain circumstances. The letter agreement provided a basis for the preparation of a definitive agreement, including representations and warranties and covenants customary for a transaction of this nature.

On September 24, 2009, Klondex formally terminated the Letter Agreement. Klondex cites that the public disclosure record dated November 20, 2008 contained material misstatements and omissions regarding the inferred resource at Paramount’s San Miguel Project in Mexico. Klondex believes that it is entitled to a reverse break fee of US$2.85 million plus damages.

On October 2, 2009, the Company filed a statement of claim in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, Canada, naming Klondex Mines Ltd as a defendant in connection with the termination by Klondex of the binding Letter Agreement dated July 20, 2009 whereby Klondex agreed to be acquired by Paramount on the basis of 1.45 shares of Paramount common stock for each common share of Klondex. The Statement of Claim alleges Klondex acted in bad faith and in breach of the Agreement along with damages for breach of contract and, in addition, damages for malicious falsehood and defamation.

14.	Subsequent events:

Subsequent events noted below have been identified as of November 6, 2009.

On October 15, 2009, the Company closed its public offering of 16 million shares of its common stock at $1.25 per share. In addition, the underwriters also exercised all of their overallotment of 2.4 million common shares generating net proceeds of approximately $21.7 million. There are no warrants issued in connection with this financing. Proceeds are being used to further explore the San Miguel project and to consider acquisition of new precious metals projects.

15.	Restatement

We determined that certain warrants issued by the Company in connection with 2008 and 2009 securities offering (“Warrants”) contain exercise prices which are denominated in a currency other than our functional currency of the U.S. Dollar, which should have been accounted for in the accordance with the amended provisions of ASC 815 effective July 1, 2009. ASC 815-40-15 concerns the determination of what types of instruments or embedded features in an instrument held by a reporting entity can be considered indexed to its own stock for the purposes of evaluating the scope exception in ASC 815. Since certain outstanding Warrants are exercisable in Canadian dollars, they are not considered indexed to the Company’s own stock and therefore, do not qualify for the scope exception in ASC 815 and must be accounted for as a derivative liability. Accordingly, beginning July 1, 2009 we should have reclassified the Warrants as liabilities under the caption “Warrant liability” and recorded them at estimated fair value at each reporting date, computed using the Black-Scholes valuation method. Thereafter, changes in the warrant liability from period to period should have been recorded in the Statements of Operations under the caption “Change in fair value of warrant liability.” Effective July 1, 2009, we should have recorded a cumulative effect adjustment based on the grant date fair value of the outstanding Warrants and the change in fair value of the warrant liability from the issuance date through July1, 2009.

The impact of the restatement on the quarter ended September 30, 2009 contained in this Form 10-Q/A is to record a warrant liability of $13,162,453, a reduction of contributed surplus of $3,612,865 and increase of accumulated deficit of $9,549,588 on the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, a further adjustment to record a gain related to the change in fair value of the warrant liability of $3,088,287 on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2009.

Additionally, we determined that Stock Based Compensation expenses should be allocated to the type of expense incurred. We have also determined that the shares we issued to Garibaldi Resources Corp, held in escrow should be excluded from the basic loss per share computation. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements have been restated where applicable to reflect the adjustments.

The adjustment to net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2009 is summarized below:

	Period Ended September 30, 2009 $
Net loss, as previously reported		2,045,492
Adjustment for change in fair value of warrant liability (pre-tax)		3,088,287
Tax effect of restatement adjustment		-
Net loss (gain), as restated		(1,042,795	)
Basic net income per share, as restated		(0.01	)

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

Overview and History:

We are an exploration stage mining company which has as its core business, precious metals exploration in Mexico. We are a Delaware corporation and we were incorporated on March 29, 2005. Our administrative office is located at Suite 110, 346 Waverley Street, Ottawa, Canada K2P 0W5. We also have a field office located in Temoris, Mexico. Our primary objective is to explore and develop the San Miguel Project located in the State of Chihuahua, Mexico. Through our wholly owned Mexican subsidiary, Paramount Gold de Mexico S.A. de C.V., we own a 100% interest in the San Miguel property having during the year acquired the remaining 30% interest from our prior joint venture partner, Tara Gold Resources Corp. (“Tara Gold”). In consideration for the transfer of the 30% equity interest in the joint venture and other mining concessions, we issued to Tara Gold a total of 7,350,000 shares of our legended common stock and approximately $10,000 for the transfer of certain mining concessions owned by Tara Gold.

In March 2009, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Magnetic Ltd. (“Magnetic”). Magnetic is the sole beneficial shareholder of Minera Gama, S.A. de C.V. which holds interests in various mineral concessions in Mexico known as the Temoris project and the Morelos project. Magnetic also holds a 2.0% NSR royalty from production arising from the Iris mineral concessions located in the Municipality of Ocampo in Chihuahua, Mexico. These land holdings surround our San Miguel mining concessions. The Morelos Project and the Iris Project are ancillary to our primary business plan.

Also in March 2009, we closed on an agreement with Garibaldi Resource Corp (“Garibaldi”) in which we acquired the outstanding option on the Temoris project. With the acquisition of both Magnetic and our agreement with Garibaldi, we increased our mining claims in the San Miguel project area by approximately 54,000 hectares.

In May 2008, we signed an agreement with Mexoro Minerals Ltd. (“Mexoro”) and its Mexican subsidiary, Sunburst Mining de Mexico S.A. de C.V., to acquire, for a purchase price of US$3.7 million, Mexoro’s rights to a number of mining concessions known asthe Guazapares concessions, comprising approximately 1,980 hectares and located in Chihuahua, Mexico,, subject to a net smelter returns royalty of 2.5% (which royalty may be reduced to 2.0% at closing). The Guazapares project comprises 12 claims surrounding Paramount’s San Miguel Project. An additional payment of US$1.6 million is due to Mexoro if, within 36 months, the project is put into commercial production or if Paramount or substantially all of its assets are sold.

Market for Gold and Silver:

The demand for gold and silver has created a bull market for both metals over the past several years. While there will likely continue to be increased volatility of market prices in the short run due to seasonality or speculation, the growth of the world’s economy is driving demand for raw materials that has drawn down supplies. Despite concerns for a slowing U.S. economy, a growing middle class in both China and India is driving demand for precious metals. There also remains increased interest in holding precious metals such as gold and silver as a store of value during periods of increasing anxiety of either errant monetary policies or strained international relations. Contributing further to the increasing price of both gold and silver has been the fall in the value of the US dollar against other major foreign currencies and the deteriorating economic indicators in the United States and throughout the world.

Gold prices have generally trended upward during the last nine years, from a low of just under $260 per ounce in early 2001 to a high of more than $1,100 per ounce in November 2009. Despite declining from a high of $21.00 per ounce in March 2008 to approximately $17.00 per ounce in November 2009, silver has trended upward as well over the past 9 years from a low of approximately $8.50 per ounce. Management remains encouraged with its ongoing drilling program. If commercially recoverable deposits are identified, management believes that the Company will enter into an agreement with a mining partner who has experience implementing mining operations.

Financings and Related Agreements:

We have been dependent upon equity financings to operate our business. Our single largest equity financing came from a private placement of our securities which we closed on March 30, 2007 in the amount of $21,836,841. The financing consisted of the sale of 10,398,496 units of our securities at a price of $2.10 per unit. The warrants which were sold as part of the unit have expired.

From April 2007 through February 2009, we completed several private placements ranging from $100,000 to approximately $1.8 million. These funds were used to expand our drilling operations in Mexico as well as for general working capital purposes.

On March 20, 2009 we sold a total of 12 million units of our securities at a price of CDN$0.75 per unit for a total of CDN$9,000,000 (the “Financing”). (Based on an exchange rate of CDN$1 = US$0.80 we raised gross proceeds of US$7.2 million). Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and one common stock purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price of CDN$1.05 per share for a period of four years from the date of issuance. The warrants were not exercisable until six months from their issue date.

On October 15, 2009 we offered 16 million shares of our common stock at an offering price of $1.25 per share. Our underwriters exercised all of their overallotment of 2.4 million shares. As a result of the foregoing, we received net proceeds of approximately $21.7 million. The shares of common stock were offered pursuant to the Company’s registration statement declared effective by the Commission on Paramount’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-153104) (the “Registration Statement”), including a base prospectus dated January 8, 2009, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated October 8, 2009. FCMI Financial Corporation (“FCMI”), our largest stockholder, purchased 4,000,000 Shares in the Offering.

The proceeds from the offering will allow us to further develop the San Miguel project and investigate precious metal opportunities. We believe that these funds will be adequate to meet our budgeted expenses.

The San Miguel Project

Location

The San Miguel Project is located in southwestern Chihuahua in Northern Mexico, and is approximately 400 km by road from the state capital. The project is about 20 km north of the town of Temoris, adjacent to the village of Guazapares. It is in the Guazapares mining district, which is part of the Sierra Madre Occidental gold-silver belt.

The location of the San Miguel Project is shown in Map 1. The coordinate system used for all maps and sections in this report is the Universal Transverse Mercator system, Zone 12. GPS coordinates are referenced to NAD 27 Mexico.

Access:

Direct access to San Miguel is by the paved highway 127 to the town of Creel, then by reasonably good gravel roads to Temoris and then Guazapares. The simplest way for a visitor to reach Temoris is via the Chihuahua-Pacific rail service between Chihuahua City and Temoris, a nine hour trip. Two passenger trains in each direction and several freight trains serve Temoris and Los Mochis on the pacific coast daily. From the Temoris train station to the village of Guazapares the drive is about 15 minutes by a winding gravel road.

MAP 1 – SAN MIGUEL PROJECT LOCATION

The Chihuahua Informe Pericial (Department of Mines) administers the concessions in this area. As part of the concession acquisition process, concession boundaries are surveyed.

Deposit Types

At the San Miguel project, mineralization consists of epithermal, low sulfidation, gold/silver vein and breccia deposits which occur in north-northwest trending, steeply dipping structures. This type of mineralization is typical of the Sierra Madre Occidental gold-silver metallogenic province.These are multi-phase deposits which produced several phases of cross-cutting breccias and related hydrothermal alteration. Alteration ranges from peripheral propylitization to argillic alteration to strong to intense silicification, often with adularia development. This mineralization is physically expressed as sheeted quartz veins, silicified hydrothermal breccias, and vuggy, quartz- filled expansion breccias. Amethystine quartz is locally present. The following table outlines our concessions within the San Miguel Project:

(*) Under option

Current Agreements with respect to mining concessions:

San Miguel Group Agreement

The San Miguel Grouping forms the initial core of the property. It includes the concessions San Miguel, San Juan, San Luis, Empalme, Sangre de Cristo, Santa Clara, El Carmen, Las Tres BBB, Swanwick, Las Tres SSS, El Rosario and Guadalupe de Los Reyes as listed in Table 1, a total of 275 hectares. The San Miguel Groupings were acquired by Corporacion Amermin S.A. (“Amermin”), a subsidiary of Tara Gold. We earned our 70% interest in the concessions pursuant to an option agreement with Amermin dated August 3, 2005 by making $450,000 in payments, issuing 700,000 restricted shares of Paramount common stock and incurring $2.5 million in exploration expenditures. Under the terms of the joint venture with Amermin (the “Joint Venture”) as contained in the Joint Venture Agreement between the parties effective February 7, 2007 (the “Joint Venture Agreement”), Paramount served as the manager of the Joint Venture. If Amermin chooses not to participate financially in the Joint Venture, its interest may be diluted to a 2% NSR, which may be decreased to 1% by a payment of $500,000 from Paramount to Amermin.

On October 1, 2008, we closed on our agreement with Tara Gold to acquire all of the remaining equity ownership of the Joint Venture. In consideration for the acquisition of the remaining equity interest (30%) owned by Tara Gold in the Joint Venture, we issued to Tara Gold a total of 7,350,000 shares of our legended common stock. Also, in connection with the closing of the transaction, all invoices previously submitted by Paramount for Tara Gold’s contribution to the exploration and development of the San Miguel property have been cancelled. In consideration for the transfer of the mining concessions, Paramount has paid to Tara Gold $100,000MXN (approximately US$10,000).

Temoris

In March 2009, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Magnetic Ltd. (“Magnetic”) in consideration for the issuance of 1,350,000 shares of our common stock valued at $675,000. The shares of common stock were issued pursuant to our shelf registration statement. Magnetic is the sole beneficial shareholder of Minera Gama, S.A. de C.V. which holds interests in various mineral concessions in Mexico known as the Temoris project and the Morelos project. Magnetic also holds a 2.0% NSR royalty from production arising from the Iris mineral concessions located in the Municipality of Ocampo in Chihuahua, Mexico. These land holdings surround our San Miguel mining concessions. The Morelos Project and the Iris Project are ancillary to our primary business plan.

Also in March 2009 we closed an agreement with Garibaldi Resources Corp. in which we acquired the outstanding option on the Temoris project. The option covers an area of approximately 54,000 hectares adjacent to the San Miguel groupings and Andrea project. In consideration for the acquisition, we paid Garibaldi $400,000 and issued six million shares of our legended common stock. The shares of Common Stock were delivered to an escrow agent who will release 500,000 shares of common stock six months from the date of closing and an additional 500,000 shares of common stock every three months thereafter.

La Blanca Agreement

The La Blanca agreement includes the Montecristo, Montecristo II, Monecristo Fraccion and Constituyentes 1917 concessions consisting of a total of 131hectares. We have invested the required $500,000 in exploration costs on the concessions and otherwise met our agreements with respect to these concessions. Additional payments will be due to the concession owner based upon proven reserves. Additional payments are linked to the definition of reserves. The sum of $1.00 is to be paid by August 31, 2007 for each gold-equivalent ounce of mineable reserves defined by December 31, 2006; the sum of $1.00 is to be paid by February 29, 2008 for each gold-equivalent ounce of mineable reserves defined by December 31, 2007; and the sum of $1.00 is to be paid by August 31, 2009 for each gold-equivalent ounce of mineable reserves defined by December 31, 2008. No mineable reserves have been defined to date and no payments have been made.

Santa Cruz Agreement

The Santa Cruz concession totals 10.00 hectares. We own a 100% interest in the concession. .

Elyca Concession

The Elyca concession, totaling 10.0924 hectares . We purchased the concession from Minera Rio Tinto, S.A. de C.V. for cash and stock and was registered with the Public Registry of Mining. We own 90% of the joint venture interest in this concession.

Mexoro

In May 2008, we signed an agreement with Mexoro Minerals Ltd. (“Mexoro”) and its Mexican subsidiary, Sunburst Mining de Mexico S.A. de C.V., to acquire, for a purchase price of US$3.7 million, Mexoro’s rights to a number of mining concessions known as the Guazapares concessions, comprising approximately 1,980 hectares and located in Chihuahua, Mexico,, subject to a net smelter returns royalty of 2.5% (which royalty may be reduced to 2.0% at closing). The Guazapares project comprises 12 claims surrounding Paramount’s San Miguel Project. The purchase price will be released from escrow when certain conditions are met, and an additional payment of US$1.6 million is due to Mexoro if, within 36 months, the project is put into commercial production or if Paramount or substantially all of its assets are sold.

Ejido Agreements

We have signed agreements with two ejidos, or surface-owner councils, allowing for surface disturbance during exploration activities. Agreements with the Guazapares and Batosegachi ejidos were signed on April 29th and 19th, 2007, respectively, and are effective for a period of five years. The Guazapares and Batosegachi ejido agreements were registered with the National Agrarian Registry on May 4th and 5th, 2007, respectively. The agreements permit us to carry out exploration on the ejidos’ areas in exchange for compensation of a fixed sum per hectare of physical disturbance associated with exploration such as the cutting of trees and construction of drill access roads and drill pads, etc.

Andrea

We staked the Andrea mining concession located in Guazaparez mining district in Chihyahua, Mexico for a cost of $20,000.

Other Properties

We also own additional mining concessions in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico. We will continue to explore additional opportunities through other joint ventures and acquisitions. We do not expect to generate revenues from these projects nor is it our objective to enter the mine management business. Rather we hope to identify a resource that will enable us to attract a larger company to partner with who has experience developing and managing a mine.

Vidette Lake

We acquired an option to acquire a group of three cell mineral claims known as the Vidette Lake property (“Vidette Lake”), which represents a core portion of an intermediate stage high grade gold exploration project located 70 kilometer northwest of the city of Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada. Mineral rights to the property total approximately 500 hectares.

To date, we have conducted limited exploration with respect to this project.

Property Location Map

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and from Inception, (March 25, 2005).

Revenues

We are an exploratory mining company with no revenues from operations to date. All of our revenues to date represent interest income which we have earned as a result of our cash holdings. Our cash holdings were generated from the sale of our securities. Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $54,514 as compared to $97,277 the three months ended September 30, 2008. Since inception (March 29, 2005), we have generated $1,036,623 in interest income. The interest income has been generated as a result of various financings which we have undertaken. Monies are deposited in interest bearing accounts until such time as needed for drilling and general working capital purposes.

Interest income declined as a result of our diminishing cash holdings.

Operating Expenses

For the three months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2008, our total operating expenses were $2,100,006 as compared to $3,158,655. Total expenses since inception through September 30, 2009 were $46,279,379.

Our total operating expenses for the comparative quarters in September 2009 as compared to September 2008 declined approximately 34% primarily due to a reduction in our office and administrative expenses and the limited use of stock based compensation.

We would have experienced even larger declines in our operating expenses but for the costs we incurred in connection with the proposed acquisition Klondex Mines Ltd. (“Klondex”). Specifically, on July 20, 2009 we entered into a binding letter agreement (“Letter Agreement”) to combine both Paramount and Klondex under a plan of agreement. Pursuant to this agreement each Klondex share was to be exchanged for 1.45 shares of our common stock. All outstanding Klondex options and warrants were to be exchanged for Paramount options and warrants. The Letter Agreement called for a break fee of $2.85 million. On September 24, 2009 Klondex terminated the Letter Agreement alleging that the public disclosure record with respect to our San Miguel Project was inaccurate

On October 2, 2009 we filed a statement of claim in the Superior Court of British Columbia, Canada naming Klondex as a defendant whereby we alleged that Klondex acted in bad faith, breach of contract, malicious falsehoods and defamation.

Our exploration and geology costs declined from $1,449,884 and $399,995 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to $859,211 and $219,288 for the three months ended September 30, 2009.

Total exploration and geology costs since inception were $14,875,619 and $3,956,353 respectively.

We were able to reduce our office and administrative expenses by approximately $230,000, declining from $293,474 to $60,181. With fewer exploration projects to track, we were able to reduce our office staff and significantly reduce office and administrative expenses.

Professional fees for the three months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to 2008 remained relatively unchanged at $239,932 as compared to $234,976. Professional fees are related to our dual listings on the American Stock Exchange, Toronto Stock Exchange as well as regulatory compliance and fees related to the public offering of securities.

We also incurred $364,458 in acquisition expenses (Klondex) for the three months ended September 30, 2009.

Net Income (loss)

Our net gain for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $2,045,492 as compared to a net loss of $3,061,378 in 2008. Due to foreign currency translation adjustments, our total comprehensive gain for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $1,053,458 as compared to a total comprehensive loss of $3,093,672. Total comprehensive loss since inception totaled $55,068,873. Until such time as we are able to identify mineral deposits which we believe can be extracted in a commercially reasonable manner, of which there can be no assurance, we will continue to incur ongoing losses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Assets and Liabilities

September 30, 2009 as compared to June 30, 2009

At September 30, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $1,851,389 as compared to $7,040,999 at June 30, 2009. This decline of approximately $5.2 million is primarily attributable to the $3,701,751 acquisition costs (Mexoro) associated with several mining concessions as well as our ongoing drilling and exploration program. The $3.7 million to fund the purchase from Mexoro was paid into escrow just prior to quarter end thereby lowering our cash position accordingly.

Amounts receivable totaled $368,611as compared to $221,267 and represent primarily value added tax and refunds receivable from the Mexican government. There was little change in our accounts receivables, notes receivable or prepaid expenses and deposits

Total current assets were $3,526,905 as compared to $8,499,986.

Our long term assets at September 30, 2009 totaled $22,647,977 as compared to $18,957,809. Long term assets consist primarily of our mineral properties located within the Sierra Madre gold district in Mexico which we valued at $22,138,703 as compared to $18,436,951 as of June 30, 2009. The Company has capitalized the acquisition costs of these properties. We also have fixed assets consisting of property and equipment totaling $509,274 as compared to $520,858 net of depreciation.

Total assets at September 30, 2009 were $26,174,882 as compared to $27,457,795.

Our current liabilities as of September 30, 2009 totaled $14,135,839 as compared to $383,445 at June 30, 2009. The increase in current liabilities is largely attributable to the addition this year of a warrant liability of $13,162,453 due to warrants with exercise prices in Canadian dollars. We did not record a similar liability last year as we did not adopt the amended provisions of ASC 815 on determining what types of instruments or embedded features in an instrument held by a reporting entity can be considered indexed to its own stock for the purpose of evaluating the first criteria of the scope exception in ASC 815 until July 1, 2009, which is the date at which this amendment became effective. The warrant liability is a non-cash item and only obligates the Company to issue common shares if exercised by the holder of the warrant prior to expiry.

We have a working capital surplus at September 30, 2009 (current assets less current liabilities) of $2,553,519 as compared to a working capital surplus of $8,116,541 at June 30, 2009, representing a decline of approximately 70%. Subsequent to September 30, 2009, we completed a financing totaling $21.7 million. As a result, we anticipate that we will be able to meet our currently existing ongoing contractual commitments for any property or mineral rights and have sufficient financial resources to finance necessary exploration and geological endeavors.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We are not currently a party to, or otherwise involved with, any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
