General and Administration

Comparison of the Quarterly results

Overall, there was a 26% decrease in general and administration expenses to $83,816 in the quarter ended June 30, 2011 from $112,841 in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and no significant change from $84,899 in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Accounting and legal fees have decreased $20,156 in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 to $11,488 as compared to $31,644 in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and an increase of $2,234 when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The primary reason for the decrease is that in 2010 legal fees incurred on legal due diligence with respect to certain Company properties, whereas no such fees incurred in the second quarter of fiscal 2011.   Insurance costs increased in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 to $8,934 compared to $2,918 in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and from $2,686 in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The increase is a result of a new general liability policy to cover exploration activities on the Company’s US properties. There was an increase in promotion and marketing costs during the second quarter of fiscal 2011 to $20,923 as compared to $16,646 during the second quarter of fiscal 2010. The increase was a result of increased trade show costs compared to fiscal 2010. 

The Company recorded a net loss of $83,816 during the quarter ended June 30, 2011, as compared to a net loss of $86,866 during the comparable period in fiscal 2010. The primary difference is related to higher legal fees incurred in fiscal 2010 and the future tax recovery recorded in fiscal 2010 whereas there is no recorded tax recovery in 2011.

During the first six months of fiscal 2011, accounting and legal fees decreased by $34,145 to $20,742 as compared to $54,887 during the comparable period in fiscal 2010.

There was an increase in promotion and marketing costs during the first six months of fiscal 2011 to $58,296 as compared to $36,114 during the first six months of fiscal 2010. The increase was a result of increased trade show costs and marketing videos to be prepared during 2011.
