2005 ANNUAL REPORT<br />
responsibility for companies and their officers,<br />
directors and employees. There is no assurance<br />
that future changes in environmental regulation,<br />
if any, will not adversely affect the Company’s<br />
operations. Environmental hazards may exist<br />
on the properties in which the Company holds<br />
interests which are presently unknown to the<br />
Company and which have been caused by<br />
previous or existing owners or operators of the<br />
properties or by illegal mining activities.<br />
Government approvals and permits are<br />
sometimes required in connection with the<br />
Company’s operations. To the extent such<br />
approvals are required and not obtained, the<br />
Company may be delayed or prohibited from<br />
proceeding with planned exploration or<br />
development of mineral properties.<br />
Amendments to current laws, regulations and<br />
permits governing operations and activities of<br />
mining companies, or more stringent implementation<br />
thereof, could have a material adverse<br />
impact on the Company and cause increases in<br />
capital expenditures or require abandonment or<br />
delays in development of new mining properties.<br />
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES<br />
As of December 31, 2005, an evaluation was<br />
carried out, under the supervision of and with<br />
the participation of management, including the<br />
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial<br />
Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure<br />
controls and procedures as defined in Multilateral<br />
Instrument 52-109. Based on that evaluation,<br />
the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial<br />
Officer concluded that the design and operation<br />
of these disclosure controls and procedures<br />
were effective as of December 31, 2005.<br />
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS<br />
These consolidated financial statements and<br />
management’s discussion and analysis contain<br />
certain forward-looking statements relating to,<br />
but not limited to, the Company’s expectations,<br />
intentions, plans and beliefs. Forward-looking<br />
information can often be identified by forwardlooking<br />
words such as “anticipate,” “believe,”<br />
“expect,” “goal,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate,”<br />
“may” and “will” or similar words suggesting<br />
future outcomes, or other expectations, beliefs,<br />
plans, objectives, assumptions, intentions or<br />
statements about future events or performance.<br />
Forward-looking information may include<br />
reserve and resource estimates, estimates of<br />
future production, unit costs, costs of capital<br />
projects and timing of commencement of<br />
operations, and is based on current expectations<br />
that involve a number of business risks and<br />
uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual<br />
results to differ materially from any forwardlooking<br />
statement include, but are not limited<br />
to: failure to establish estimated resources and<br />
reserves; the grade and recovery of ore which<br />
is mined varying from estimates; capital and<br />
operating costs varying significantly from<br />
estimates; delays in obtaining or failures to<br />
obtain required governmental, environmental<br />
or other project approvals; inflation; changes<br />
in exchange rates; fluctuations in commodity<br />
prices; delays in the development of projects<br />
and other factors.<br />
Potential shareholders and prospective<br />
investors should be aware that these<br />
statements are subject to known and unknown<br />
risks, uncertainties and other factors that could<br />
cause actual results to differ materially from<br />
those suggested by the forward-looking<br />
statements. Shareholders are cautioned not<br />
to place undue reliance on forward-looking<br />
information. By its nature, forward-looking<br />
information involves numerous assumptions,<br />
inherent risks and uncertainties, both general<br />
and specific, that contribute to the possibility<br />
that the predictions, forecasts, projections and<br />
various future events will not occur. The<br />
Company undertakes no obligation to update<br />
publicly or otherwise revise any forwardlooking<br />
information whether as a result of<br />
new information, future events or other such<br />
factors which affect this information, except<br />
as required by law.<br />
