PART I
Item 1.
Business
With the acquisition of Defense Technology Corporation ("DTC"), Defense Technologies International Corp. (formerly Canyon Gold Corp.) plans to bring defense detection and protection products to market intended to improve security for military personnel, schools and other public facilities.
During the year ended April 30, 2016, the Company did not make certain payments related to its mining lease claims located in the State of Nevada. As a result, on May 11, 2016, the Company renewed its claims and is required to pay the associated fees within 90 days of the renewal. The Company anticipates completing the payment of fees by August 5, 2016. As a result of the renewal of the claims in May 2016, the Company currently holds these claims. According to SEC Industry Guide No. 7, we are classified or considered an exploration stage mineral company defined as a company engaged in the search for mineral deposits or reserves of precious and base metal targets, which are not in either the development or production stage. Subsequent to the completion of the DTC acquisition, the Company intends to use its reasonable best efforts to effectuate a possible spin-off of its subsidiary, Long Canyon Gold Resources Corp. ("Long Canyon"), on terms to be determined.
Our principal executive office is located at 4730 South Fort Apache Road, Suite 300, Las Vegas, Nevada 89147, telephone (1-800) 520-9485. Additional office space is subleased from EMAC at 641 West 3rd Street, North Vancouver BC, Canada. The office of DRLLC that is responsible for management of exploration program is located at 125 East Main Street # 307, American Fork, Utah 84003.
Corporate Name Change
The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on May 27, 1998. Effective June 15, 2016, the Company changed its name from Canyon Gold Corp. to Defense Technologies International Corp. to more fully represent the Company's expansion goals into the advanced technology sector.
Defense Technology Corporation Acquisition
On October 5, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of Defense Technology Corporation, a privately held Colorado limited liability company ("DTC") with principal offices in New Port Richey, Florida. The agreement provides that the Company acquire from Jeffrey Vanalstine, President of DTC, the one outstanding share of DTC that represents 100% of its shares. DTC is the developer of defense, detection and protection products to improve security for military personnel and schools and other public facilities. DTC maintains a website at www.defensetechnologycorporation.com.
We previously intended to close the transaction on December 31, 2015, however we extended the date to allow additional time for due diligence and for DTC to finalized requisite documents and financial statements. On July 15, 2016, we executed necessary closing documents to finalize the acquisition of DTC, which became our wholly owned subsidiary. DTC is required to deliver to the Company its audited financial statements in order that they can be included with the Company's consolidated financial statements. Within ten days of completion of DTC's audited financial statements, the Company will appoint Jeff Vanalstine to the Company's Board of Directors, and will appoint Merrill Moses, President of the Company, to the DTC Board of Directors.
In consideration for acquiring DTC, the Company has authorized the issuance of 4,000,000 shares of voting Common Stock to Mr. Vanalstine and certain of DTC's note holders. The shares will be restricted from trading for a period of one year and will thereafter be released on a quarterly basis. Additionally, DTC will be able to earn certain additional Series "B" Convertible Preferred Shares of the Company upon attaining certain gross sales milestones.
DTC was formed in 2007 to bring products to market in the areas of personal and collateral protection. DTC operates in the markets of personal and collateral protection by creating technology that is unique in design and operation. DTC currently has two products in development that they believe will impact their respective industries.
3
DTC has assembled a team of experts that have built relationships in target markets spanning over three years, enabling the company to deal directly with the decision makers specific to its products. DTC has presented to state and federal government departments and is positioned to move forward with the sale of products.
DTC's business model is based on the hub and spoke system operating in an identified market with a direct connection to decision makers. The markets for its lead product are the 105,000 U.S. public and private schools, colleges and universities. The core customer base is government, specifically federal, state, and regional, together with international replication and future commercial applications.
Long Canyon Gold Resources Corp.
On July 20, 2011, the Company acquired 100% of the issued shares of Long Canyon Gold Resources Corp. ("Long Canyon"), a private British Columbia, Canada Corporation, incorporated on June 19, 2008, in a share for share exchange accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization. In May 2016, Long Canyon renewed leases for 30 BLM mineral lease claims, situated in the west section of the new Long Canyon Gold Trend area of east central Nevada. The claims had previously lapsed due to late payment of the annual lease obligations. Each of the 30 claims in Section 35 is a Federal BLM unpatented lode claims, 20 acres in size and includes placer rights in Nevada. The actual area of the 30 claims is 600 acres and the balance of approximately 40 acres in Section 35 consists of a slough and swampy pond area. The claims were initially listed as CG #1 through CG#30.
In exchange for the acquisition of Long Canyon, we issued to the stockholders of Long Canyon 27,998,699 shares of our common stock and 500,000 Series B preferred shares, which are convertible into a total of 5.0 million of our common shares. The Series B preferred shares were assigned to Development Resources LLC ("DRLLC") as consideration for the 30 BLM mineral lease claims previously acquired by Long Canyon from DRLLC. On July 22, 2011, we issued to EMAC, 600,000 Series A preferred shares, convertible into 6.0 million shares of common stock. The Series A preferred shares satisfied certain payables to EMAC in connection with Long Canyon's acquisition of mineral claims and certain related party payables. The payables refer to certain executive and administrative services provided to the Company and Long Canyon. Also, at the time of the Long Canyon acquisition, Long Canyon and the Company agreed that the 600,000 Series A preferred shares would be transferred to EMAC in consideration for a payable to EMAC. The preferred shares are only convertible into common stock starting 12 months after the first day that our common stock is traded on the on the OTC-Bulletin Board, now the OTCQB.
We have engaged DRLLC of American Fork, Utah to conduct preliminary studies of our claims as funding permits. We intend to conduct exploration activities on the properties in phases. We plan to explore for gold, silver and other minerals on the property covering an area of approximately 640 acres. There can be no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on our property or that we will be successful in raising the funding to continue our exploration activities. Extensive exploration will be required before we can make a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility of any potential deposit.
Abandoned Vaportech Acquisition
On June 6, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 90% of Vaportech3d LLC, a privately held Nevada limited liability company, formerly known as EMAC Holdings, LLC, a related party, ("Vaportech"), owner of the Cedar Leaf Oil Vapor Technology. Based on the due diligence performed, on September 8, 2015, the parties entered into an agreement to cancel the acquisition.
DTC Business Opportunity
Our immediate goal is to reorganize the existing indebtedness of DTC and to provide an estimated $25,000 for the completion of the initial production of DTC's Offender Alert Passive Scan. The Offender Alert Passive Scan is an advanced passive scanning system for detecting and identifying concealed threats. The unit can be installed into a door frame with no visual presence, providing covert detection, or can be installed as a stand-alone unit for portable operation.
The passive scan consists of eight highly developed sensors that read the constantly changing variations in the earth's magnetic field. These same sensors have applications in places such as along the San Andreas fault line, where they measure changes in the earth's magnetic fields to anticipate earthquake activity.

The system is a frame that can be installed in a doorway, and can be installed covertly, or can operate as a free standing unit for portable use. Because the earth's magnetic field is never static, the system constantly self-adjusts. When a subject passes through the "curtain" with something of a metallic nature, an invisible wave of variation is generated where the signal has the greatest strength.
The program provides a visual image of where the items are located on the suspect, as well as an approximation of the size of the item (with optional equipment). With cameras available at the facility, the system will instantly relay the image of the suspect, position and time of the offending alert. The picture can be transmitted to security, management or any designated recipient and can be retained in the memory log of the computer.
With the use of electromagnets, the system emits nothing through the subject and is passive; it simply reads the ambient environment and the variations that occur as a person passes between two specific points. Contrary to existing scanning and detection technology, the system emits no energy. The DTC system is able to detect objects such as cell phones, knives, and firearms including covert handguns.
Scanner systems currently in the market are effectively an X-RAY in some form; existing scanning technology emits a signal from one side of a scanning unit, through the subject, to the other side of the unit. The Offender Alert technology does not rely on X-RAYS, and its competitively priced at less than half the cost of similar units now in use in the marketplace.
We currently estimate the first installation of the Offender Alert in the third quarter of calendar year 2016.
Current Minerals Business
Our current mineral property interests are comprised of
30 BLM mineral lease claims, situated in the west section of the new Long Canyon Gold Trend area of east central Nevada.
These properties are located next to other exploration projects owned by other mining companies in the Long Canyon Gold Trend. All of the claims are located in Section 35, T 34N R63E, Mount Diablo Base & Meridian (Meridian MDB&M). We intend to explore the claims for gold and silver mineralization deposits as funding permits.
The property rights to each claim are acquired by first staking the ground with a legal marker wooden post with identification of the location, date of staking location and owners name attached to each post. The locator or owner then has a period of time to then file the Mining Claim Notices with the County Recorder's office and, in this case, in Elko County, Nevada. A fee is paid for this filing and a County Stamp with the date of such recording is put on each Claim Location Notice. The locator or owner then has up to 90 days from the location date on the Claim Notice to file and pay an additional fee to the BLM in Reno, Nevada to record the ownership of each claim with the BLM. The locator or owner is then officially listed with both the County and the BLM as having the mineral claim control to the claims and holds complete ownership interest in the surface rights and subsurface rights to all minerals on the claims up to the new required notice to hold date, which is the following next September 1 date from the date of the location on the Claim Notice. It is officially recognized that the locator or owner has such rights on the ground that each claim is located on from the date the posts are put in the ground on the claim with the attached document as well until the proper recording dates required by the County and the BLM.
In January 2012, DRLLC prepared the preliminary geological report on our properties. Alex Burton of Burton Consulting Inc., was the consulting geologist for DRLLC and conducted additional fieldwork from May 19 to May 29, 2012 as part of the requirements for dissemination of his final geology report. Mr. Burton, an exploration geologist and geochemist, has become a member of our advisory board. Titles to the 30 claims (approximately 640 acres) were originally recorded in the name of DRLLC; however the title has been transferred to the Company.
5
Our agreement with DRLLC obligated Long Canyon to pay to DRLLC $30,000 to complete full staking and acquisition of mineral lease claims. DRLLC would then assign to Long Canyon a 100% interest in the claims, subject to DRLLC holding a 3% Net Smelter Royalty on the claims. Long Canyon is further obligated to pay all BLM and State of Nevada registration fees and to perform initial exploration work on the claims. Also, DRLLC will retain a first right of refusal to buy back the claims in the event the Company intends to sell the claims.
We will conduct exploration activities on the properties in phases. We intend to explore for gold, silver and other minerals on the property covering an area of approximately 640 acres. There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on our property. Extensive exploration will be required before we can make a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility of any potential deposit.
Exploration Properties
Our mineral lease properties are located in the Long Canyon Gold Trend in the Spruce Mountain Mining District, Nevada. The area is generally characterized by an average elevation of approximately 5,600 feet and is made up of gentle rising hills and ridges to about 6,000 feet to the west and 5,800 feet to the east. The ridges and elevation increase to the south to an elevation of 6,800 feet at Ventosa Peak. The highest elevation in the district is Spruce Mountain at an elevation of just over 10,000 feet, located approximately 16 miles due south of our claims. The trees on these properties are small Spruce, Pine and scrub brush, not densely covered with many open areas on the higher ridges and side slopes with open areas in the small valleys at lower elevations.
All of our claims are located in one block in a semi-remote area with no infrastructure in place. The only access to the properties is by historic gravel or dirt roads and trails. There is no current access to water or power, although we do not foresee a need during the first phases of exploration. Typically, all contract personnel carry their own water and have portable generators for their operations, including phase two drill programs. Drilling operators supply tanker trucks for their water needs.
In the event an ore body is discovered as a result of our exploration programs, significant additional funding would be necessary to proceed. In order to satisfy this need, we anticipate seeking a strategic partnership or joint venture with a much larger mining company in order to fund additional heavy exploration drilling, feasibility studies and establishing mining operations. A feasibility study would detail the costs to provide all infrastructure including, but not limited to, pumping water from underground sources or building lakes to hold such water needs, building electrical lines to the area for needed power or using standalone large generator systems to provide necessary power. It is our intent to remain an exploration company and to seek a partner to further develop and operate our properties. Presently, there can be no assurance that we will discover minerals in a commercially viable amount or that we would be able to secure a strategic partner to provide necessary funding to become operational.
Regulatory Requirements
In order to maintain the Company's claims and/or leases, we must make annual payments to the Bureau Land Management ("
BLM
") and State of Nevada, due in September of each year. Payment to the BLM is $145 per claim and the State of Nevada is $70 per claim. We currently own the 30 BLM mineral leases for which we are obligated to make annual payments.
Phase one of our exploration program, completing a preliminary geological report on our four sections of BLM mineral lease claims, required no permits or bonding,
provided
there was no surface land disturbance of more than one-third acre. Phase two, provided preliminary geological reports are favorable and funding is available, will proceed with a drill program to confirm mineralization on these target areas from the surface to depth. If initial core samples show evidence of gold mineralization, a geological grid map will be produced to lay out an extensive drill program to define a potential mineable ore body. Phase two will require an "Access and Land Use Permit" from the BLM and State of Nevada. Generally, this will require about 30 days for the filing process and cost approximately $12,000 for a bond to assure the reclamation of the subject areas.

Royalties
Presently, we are committed to pay a 3% Net Smelter Royalty ("
NSR
") to DRLLC on all of our 30 claims pursuant to the agreement between DRLLC and Long Canyon.

History
Spruce Mountain Mining District
Our properties lie at the north end of the Spruce Mountain district, in southern Elko County, approximately 19 miles south of Wells, Nevada. The properties are located near Highway 93 on the old Tobar Road, which provides easy access to the area. The Spruce Mountain district covers the north flank and summit of Spruce Mountain and part of the Spruce Mountain Ridge to the north. Spruce Mountain and Spruce Mountain Ridge form a somewhat isolated spur between the Pequop Mountains on the east and Clover Valley on the west.
Spruce Mountain has seen mining activity since 1869. During the early years, small communities such as Sprucemont, Spruce, Hickneytown, Monarch, Black Forest, Latham, Jasper, Steptoe, Johnson, and Killie were founded and then declined. These mining camps stretched for six miles, from the western to the eastern slopes of Spruce Mountain. In 1869, W.B. Latham discovered the Latham mine, later renamed the Killie. The lead-silver ore was sufficiently valuable that a small rush of prospectors came to the area. Within months, three new mines, the Black Forest, the Juniper, and the Fourth of July, began production.
Three separate mining districts, the Latham, Johnson and Steptoe districts, were initially created in the Spruce Mountain area. On September 26, 1871, the three districts were consolidated, and the Spruce Mountain Mining District was created.
From 1869 to the 1930's, lead, silver, copper and zinc were produced from several underground mines in the Spruce Mountain district. The Standard and Old Paramount mines are on the RenGold Spruce Mountain property. Several other historical underground workings are located to the east of the property.
No production has taken place on Spruce Mountain since 1961. Some exploration occurred through the 1980s, but none were considered worthy of extensive mining. Between 1958 and 1982, several companies conducted exploration for porphyry molybdenum deposits throughout the district. In 1984 and 1985, Santa Fe Mining Inc. remapped the western portion of the district, took rock and soil samples, conducted a VLF survey and drilled 33 RC holes, 30 of these on the Spruce Mountain property. Several of these holes intersected gold mineralization in the northern part of the Spruce Mountain property (the North Target).
In 1996 and 1997, Battle Mountain Gold Corp explored primarily to the east of the Spruce Mountain property. Between 1997 and 2009, Teck Resources, Inc. and Nevada Pacific Gold (US) Inc. explored the property. In 2009 AuEx took rock samples, staked the SM claims and quitclaimed the claims to Renaissance in 2010.
Geology
The oldest rocks exposed in the Spruce Mountain district consist of limestone of the Ordovician Pogonip Formation, which crops out on the summit and west slope of Spruce Mountain. It is overlain by, or is in fault contact with limestone, dolomite, shale, and quartzite of the Silurian through Permian ages. The sedimentary rocks are tilted gently to moderately eastward, displaced along the Spruce Mountain thrust fault, and are cut by steep north-northwest and east-trending normal faults.
The sedimentary rocks have been intruded by a granite porphyry dike that cuts across the north side of Spruce Mountain in a northeasterly direction. This porphyry, where seen near the Killie mine and east of the Black Forest mine, is bleached and kaolinized, and contains sericite, euhedral quartz phenocrysts, and some fine-grained sulfides. Many of the mines and prospects in the district are found along the trend of this porphyry dike. Three or more small or irregular stocks of granite porphyry and diorite are intruded along and near the crest of the ridge.
Limestone adjacent to some of the intrusive contacts is metamorphosed to skarn consisting of quartz, calcite, garnet, fluorite, actinolite, diopside, and other pyroxenes. The largest metamorphic zone is on the west side of the range. Between the contact zone and the main dike, there are two prominent knoblike outcrops of iron-oxide stained quartz-cemented breccias pipe. On the east side of the range, the northeastward continuation of the zone of intrusive is marked by outcrops of jasperoid.
14
Two kinds of metalliferous ore bodies have been mined in the Spruce Mountain district; (i) bedded replacement deposits of lead, silver, copper, and (ii) zinc in limestone and skarn, and fissure-filling stock work deposits of lead and silver with minor gold along normal faults in limestone, skarn, quartz breccias, and granite porphyry. Replacement deposits in limestone and skarn occur near the center of the district. Ore shoots were commonly a few feet thick, and as much as 100 feet long. Mineralization extended up to 100 feet away from the fissures into the limestone host rock. Bedded replacement deposits yielded most of the early production from the district.
The deepest ore shoot in the district was mined to the 520-foot level in the Monarch mine. To the northeast, at the Humbug mine and nearby prospects, outcrops of gossan and jasperoid occur in siliceous breccias along shear zones in limestone.
Most orebodies in the district were mined primarily for lead and silver, with increasing amounts of zinc recovered in the later years of production. Orebodies in which copper predominates generally occur adjacent to the intrusive bodies. Proportions of lead, silver, gold, copper, and zinc vary widely among the different orebodies.
Recent Activity
Our properties are in immediate proximity on the north to a 35 square mile area owned by Renaissance Gold, in joint venture with NuLegacy Gold. The two companies have collected soil samples and exposed rock chip samples that may indicate anomalous gold.
In February 2011, Newmont Gold acquired properties in the Spruce Mountain area and has extended its gold exploration activities. Frontier Gold and AuEx Ventures are joint venturing in exploration drilling to define a possible gold ore body in the area. AuEx Ventures has also entered into a joint venture drilling project with Agnico-Eagle USA in an area adjoining our properties to the west. The Renaissance Gold Group has formed a joint venture with NuLegacy Gold to conduct exploration activities in close proximity to our properties. Just to the south of our properties is another Renaissance Gold project called the Spruce Mountain Prospect.
Plan of Operations
With the completion of phase one of our exploration program and receipt of the final geology report and its recommendations to continue with Phase Two of the Company's exploration program, we will need an estimated $1,057,200 in funds for drilling and engineering studies to determine whether the mineral deposit is commercially viable. If we are unable to raise additional funds for this work, we would be unable to proceed, even if a mineral deposit is discovered.
Phase Two
Premised on and supported by the findings set forth in the final geology report, phase two will proceed as funds are available with continued exploration and a drill program to confirm mineralization on the target areas from the surface to depth. Typically, exploration results that will warrant phase two work include:
|
●
|
Analysis of surface geochemical sample results with values that are suggestive of a mineral deposit, when considered in the context of the geologic setting of the property;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Analysis of geophysical anomalies that are suggestive of a mineral deposit considered in the context of the geologic setting of the property; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Interpretation of geological results that is indicative of a favorable setting for a mineral deposit.
|
These results are usually interpreted in conjunction with current metal-market conditions, management's corporate goals and the potential for phase two plans to facilitate the discovery process. The first phase of our two-phase exploration program on our property was completed in July 2012 and the final geology report delivered in September 2012. The final report indicates a plan for further exploration, including an initial drilling program, with recommendations and budgets.
15
Alex Burton, exploration geologist and geochemist and a member of our advisory board, is responsible for the final geology report. Based on the conclusions set forth in the report and the preliminary exploration results obtained in phase one, management is confident that our properties are sufficiently positioned geologically to proceed with phase two.
All core drill samples will be sent to the ALS Chemex Labs for assay results. In the event these first drill core sample assays show substantial gold mineralization, a geological grid map will be produced to lay out an extensive "in-fill" drill program to define a potential mineable ore body. Once an ore body is defined by these drill program, a feasibility report will be produced to prepare and perform an application to all Nevada regulatory agencies for mining operation permits.
Our ability to complete the two-phase exploration will be dependent on our available funds and the ability to raise additional necessary funds as required. Phase two will require renting certain heavy-duty equipment to open new trails into the target area and perform some open trenching to gather deeper samples. The following is our estimate of the cost to successfully complete the first two phases. Our estimates for phase two are based on the findings set forth in the final geology report and are divided into two stages.

Stage "B"
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
Stage B exploration is sequential after assay results have been evaluated. A new report is not required. Further exploration will require the drilling of a series of about a dozen Reverse Circulation drill holes to depths ranging from 400 feet to 1000 feet. This is usually followed by a series holes drilled with a diamond drill to firm up the grades obtained in the RC drilling so that greater validity can be assigned to the ore grades for reserve and resource calculations.

Note: Please be advised of the following terms used in the table above:
IP/resistivity
: During phase two, we may use a program called Induced Polarization (IP), which can be used to further define deeper mineralization zones on the properties. This is performed by placing metal electrodes at interval spacing on a laid out grid according to the suitable format for the mineralized zone and the property location. Electrical impulses are then passed through these electrodes, sending back a recorded signal that can define a certain measured decay of mineralization below the surface, thus defining potential higher-grade areas for further testing programs such as drilling.
Exposed mineralized zones
: We anticipate phase one will define possible mineralized zones on the properties, which will further define potential drill targets.
Final geology report
: The final geology report, provided by a qualified, licensed geologist, written to the requirements of the NI43.101 Technical Report, will describe in detail all of the exploration data, testing results and all other operations performed on the properties as well as a definitive further exploration program with suggested costs to enter into and perform the next phase of the expected exploration.
Our exploration expenditures for phase one have been $107,923 and we anticipate an additional $1,057,200 to complete phase two. Each phase of our proposed exploration will be assessed to determine whether the results warrant further work. If exploration results on the initial phases do not warrant drilling or further exploration, we will suspend operations on the property. We will then seek additional exploration properties and additional funding with which to conduct the work. In the event that we are unable to obtain additional financing or additional properties, we may not be able to continue active business operations.
Historically, we have incurred operating losses and will not be able to exist indefinitely without securing additional operating funds. In the view of our independent auditors, we require additional funds to maintain our operations and these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We will not be conducting any product research or development over the next 12 months. We do not expect to purchase any plant or significant equipment over the next 12 months. We do not have employees and do not expect add employees over the next 12 months. Our current management team will satisfy our requirements for the foreseeable future.
Competition
The exploration for and exploitation of mineral reserves is highly competitive with many local, national and international companies in the marketplace. We must compete against several established companies in the industry that are better financed and/or who have closer working relationships with productive mining companies. We will most likely seek a strategic relationship with a more established and larger mining company to provide assistance in developing our property into production, if exploration results so warrant. We have not entered into any agreements with any third parties to produce any minerals from our property, nor have we identified any potential partners in that regard, nor is there any assurance we will be able to secure such agreements. If we are unable to identify and/or partner with any third parties to assist us in attaining production grade minerals, we will likely be unsuccessful in producing any such minerals.
With the acquisition of DTC, we will become engaged in the security and defense detection and protection business. We believe that world concerns for safety will result in an expanded market for security products. There are many larger and well-seasoned companies engaged in the security and protection industry and DTC has not yet finalized and marketed any products. If DTC's initial products are not successful, or we are unable to develop new and unique products, we would not be able to compete with other businesses.
17
Government Regulation
Because we are engaged in the mineral exploration activities, we are exposed to many governmental and environmental risks associated with our business. We are currently in the initial exploration stages and management has not determined whether significant site reclamation costs will be required.
Environmental and other government regulations at the federal, state and local level may include:
|
●
|
surface impact;
|
|
●
|
water acquisition and treatment;
|
|
●
|
site access;
|
|
●
|
reclamation;
|
|
●
|
wildlife preservation;
|
|
●
|
licenses and permits; and
|
|
●
|
maintaining the environment.
|
Regulatory compliance in the mining industry is complex and the failure to meet and satisfy various requirements can result in fines, civil or criminal penalties or other limitations.
In the event we are able to secure funding necessary to implement a bona fide exploration program, we will be subject to regulation by numerous governmental authorities. In order to maintain our claims, we must make annual payments to the BLM and the State of Nevada. If we proceed to phase two drilling, we must secure an Access and Land Use Permit. Subsequently, operating and environmental permits will be required from applicable regulatory bodies using technical applications filed by us. The failure or delay in obtaining regulatory approvals or licenses will adversely affect our ability to explore our property and otherwise carry out our business plan.
Any exploration or production on United States Federal land will have to comply with the Federal Land Management Planning Act, which has the effect generally of protecting the environment. Any exploration or production on private property, whether owned or leased, will have to comply with the Endangered Species Act and the Clean Water Act. The costs of complying with environmental concerns under any of these acts vary on a case-by-case basis. In many instances the cost can be prohibitive to development. Environmental costs associated with a particular project must be factored into the overall cost evaluation of whether to proceed with the project.
There are no costs to us at the present time except for annual fee payments related to the claims and reclamation bonding requirements of the Bureau of Land Management in connection with compliance with environmental laws. However, because we anticipate engaging in natural resource projects, these costs could occur at any time and the potential liability extensive.
Trademarks and Copyrights
We do not own any patents, trademarks or copyrights.
Employees
We presently do not have any employees and do not anticipate adding employees until our business operations and financial resources so warrant. We consider our current management to be sufficient to satisfy our requirements for the foreseeable future. Our exploration program is contracted to Development Resources LLC. and is payable in both cash and stock. Further, we anticipate DTC adding employees as its products are developed and readied for marketing.
Facilities
We presently rent office facilities in Las Vegas, Nevada that serve as our principal executive offices. The facilities are rented on a month-to-month basis on terms of $497 per month.
18
Employee Stock Plan
We have not adopted any kind of stock or stock option plan for employees at this time.
Industry Segments
No information is presented regarding industry segments. We are presently a development stage company that has been seeking potential business opportunities in the minerals industry. With the acquisition of DTC in July 216, we are seeking business opportunities in the defense, detection and protection products Reference is made to the consolidated statements of operations included in this Form 10-K for a report of our operating history for the past two fiscal years.

As
of July 27, 2016, there
were approximately 101 stockholders of record of our common stock, which does not take into account those shareholders whose certificates are held in the name of broker-dealers or other nominee accounts.
Secondary trading of our shares may be subject to certain state imposed restrictions. Except for the OTCQB, we have no immediate plans, proposals, arrangements or understandings with any person concerning the development of a trading market in any of our securities. The ability of individual stockholders to trade their shares in a particular state may be subject to various rules and regulations of that state. A number of states require that an issuer's securities be registered in their state or appropriately exempted from registration before the securities are permitted to trade in that state. Presently, we have no plans to register our securities in any particular state.
Penny Stock Rule
It is unlikely that our securities will be listed on any national or regional exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market in the foreseeable future. Therefore our shares most likely will be subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act, commonly referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for broker-dealer transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.
The SEC generally defines a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rule 3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be a penny stock unless that security is:
|
●
|
registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the SEC;
|
|
●
|
authorized for quotation on The Nasdaq Stock Market;
|
|
●
|
issued by a registered investment company;
|
|
●
|
excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the issuer's net tangible assets; or
|
|
●
|
exempted from the definition by the SEC.
|
A broker-dealer who sells penny stocks to a person other than an established customer or accredited investor is subject to additional sales practice requirements. An accredited investor is generally defined as a person with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouse.
For transactions covered by these rules, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and must receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction, of a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, a monthly statement must be sent to the client disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to trade and/or maintain a market in our common stock and may affect the ability of stockholders to sell their shares.
These requirements may be considered cumbersome by broker-dealers and could impact the willingness of a particular broker-dealer to make a market in our shares, or they could affect the value at which our shares trade. Classification of the shares as penny stocks increases the risk of an investment in our shares.
20
Rule 144
All of our outstanding common shares were issued in private transactions and considered restricted securities, except for those shares included in our August 2012 registration statement. Rule 144 is the common means for stockholders to resell restricted securities and for affiliates, to sell their securities, either restricted or non-restricted (control) shares. Rule 144 was amended, effective February 15, 2008.
Under the amended Rule 144, an affiliate of a company filing reports under the Exchange Act who has held their shares for more than six months, may sell in any three-month period an amount of shares that does not exceed the greater of:
|
●
|
the average weekly trading volume in the common stock, as reported through the automated quotation system of a registered securities association, during the four calendar weeks preceding such sale, or
|
|
●
|
1% of the shares then outstanding.
|
Sales by affiliates under Rule 144 are also subject to certain requirements as to the manner of sale, filing appropriate notice and the availability of current public information about the issuer.
A non-affiliate stockholder of a reporting company who has held their shares for more than six months, may make unlimited resales under Rule 144,
provided
only that the issuer has available current public information about itself. After a one-year holding period, a non-affiliate may make unlimited sales with no other requirements or limitations.
An important exception to the above described availability of the amended Rule 144 is that Rule 144 is not available for either a reporting or non-reporting shell company, unless the company:
|
●
|
has ceased to be a shell company;
|
|
●
|
is subject to the Exchange Act reporting obligations;
|
|
●
|
has filed all required Exchange Act reports during the preceding twelve months; and
|
|
●
|
at least one year has elapsed from the time the company filed with the SEC current Form 10 type information reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.
|
Because the Company was previously classified as a "shell" company, stockholders holding restricted shares of common stock would not be able to rely on Rule 144 until one year after we ceased to be a shell company and filed with the SEC adequate information that we are no longer a shell company. The information included in our registration statement dated November 10, 2011 is considered adequate information and, accordingly, our stockholders, both affiliates and non-affiliates, became eligible to use Rule 144 after one year from the initial filing of the registration statement.
We cannot predict the effect any future sales under Rule 144 may have on the market price of our common stock, if a market for our shares develops, but such sales may have a substantial depressing effect on such market price.
21
Dividends Policy
We have never declared cash dividends on our common stock, nor do we anticipate paying any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
The consolidated financial statements included in the report include the financial statements of the Company and those of Long Canyon, a wholly owned subsidiary. The financial statements of DTC will be included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition, July 15, 2016, forward.
Forward Looking and Cautionary Statements
This report contains forward-looking statements relating to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "will" "should," "expect," "intend," "plan," anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," or similar terms, variations of such terms or the negative of such terms. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. Although forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment, actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Going Concern
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States applicable to a going concern. Through April 30, 2016, the Company has no revenues, has accumulated losses of $4,511,780 since inception on June 19, 2008 and had a working capital deficit of $3,061,577 and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which cast substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to continue to provide for the capital needs during the year ending April 30, 2017 by issuing debt and equity securities and by the continued support of its related parties. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence. There is no assurance that funding will be available to continue the Company's business operations.
22
Results of Operations
For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2016 compared to the fiscal year ended April 30, 2015.
We currently have no sources of operating revenues and, accordingly, no revenues were recorded for either year ended April 30, 2016 or 2015.
Total operating expenses increased from $453,544 in the year ended April 30, 2015 to $516,856 in the year ended April 30, 2016. The increase in the 2016 fiscal year was due primarily to increases in professional fees and directors' fees, partially offset by a decrease in abandoned mineral claim expense of $202,180. We were unable to renew our 30 mineral lease claims prior to April 30, 2016, and the $37,820 cost basis was expensed as abandoned mineral claims in the year ended April 30, 2016. We were unable to make the required annual mineral lease payments due in September 2014 to maintain an additional 180 mineral lease claims purchased in April 2014. Therefore, these mineral interests were not renewed and the $240,000 cost basis of the lease claims was expensed as abandoned mineral claims in the year ended April 30, 2015. In addition, management and administrative fees remained at $90,000 in the 2016 fiscal year. General and administrative expenses increased to $65,124 from $45,945, professional fees increased to $205,692 from $53,799, directors' fees increased to $116,020 from $15,000 and exploration costs decreased to $2,200 from $8,800.
Our interest expense increased from $73,543 in fiscal 2015 to $224,998 in fiscal 2016 due primarily to the overall increase in our debt, an increase in the amortization to interest expense of debt discount related to the convertible debt payable to institutional investors, and early payment penalties on the repayment of certain debt to institutional investors. A substantial portion of our interest expense is incurred to related parties.
We recognized a loss on derivative liability of $2,104,872in fiscal 2016 compared to a gain on derivative liability of $23,188 in fiscal year 2015. We estimate the fair value of the derivative for the conversion feature of our convertible notes payable using the Black-Scholes pricing model at the inception of the debt, at the date of conversions to equity, cash payments and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount and a gain or loss on change in derivative liability as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, and variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective loan agreements. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liability will fluctuate from period to period and the fluctuation may be material.
We recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of $122,222 and $19,697 in fiscal 2016 and 2015, respectively. The gain on extinguishment of debt resulted primarily as a result of the elimination of derivative liabilities upon debt extinguishment, partially offset in fiscal 2016 with a loss on extinguishment of debt resulting from the amendment of certain of our convertible notes payable on April 30, 2016.
As a result, our net loss increased to $2,724,504 in fiscal 2016 from $484,202 in fiscal 2015, primarily as a result of the loss on derivative liabilities and the increase in interest expense.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At April 30, 2016, we had total current assets of $18,192, including cash of $23, and total current liabilities of $3,079,769, resulting in a working capital deficit of $3,061,577. Included in our current liabilities and working capital deficit are derivative liabilities totaling $2,081,931 related to the conversion features of certain of our convertible notes payable. We do not believe the derivative liabilities will be required to be settled in cash. A significant portion of our current liabilities is comprised of amounts due to related parties: accrued interest payable – related parties of $17,846; convertible notes payable – related parties of $57,050; notes payable – related parties of $79,656; and payables – related parties of $565,459. We anticipate that in the short-term, operating funds will continue to be provided by related parties and other lenders.
23
At April 30, 2016, we had total convertible notes payable of $63,486, net of discount of $284,664. Several of the note agreements require repayment through conversion of principal and interest into shares of the Company's common stock. We anticipate, therefore, converting these notes payable into shares of our common stock without the need for replacement financing; however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in accomplishing this.
Pursuant to five convertible notes payable, we received total cash proceeds of $159,000 in November and December 2015 and February and March 2016. These short-term notes, which have a total principal of $172,500 at April 30, 2016 (including $13,500 total original interest discount), bear interest at annual rates ranging from 6% to 12% per annum and are convertible into common shares of the Company upon the terms and subject to the limitations and conditions set forth in the note agreements.
During the year ended April 30, 2016, net cash used in operating activities was $115,174, as a result of our net loss of $2,724,504, gain on extinguishment of debt of $122,222, and increase in prepaid expenses of $12,311, partially offset by non-cash expenses totaling $2,460,783, and increases in accounts payable of $40,863, accrued interest and fees payable of $39,233, accrued interest payable – related parties of $6,703, and payables – related parties of $196,281.
During the year ended April 30, 2015, we used net cash in operating activities of $70,263, as a result of our net loss of $484,202, non-cash gains totaling $42,885 and a decrease in prepaid expenses of $1,848, partially offset by non-cash expenses totaling $292,941 and increases in accounts payable of $9,932, accrued interest payable of $1,288, accrued interest payable – related parties of $10,238 and payables – related parties of $144,273.
During the years ended April 30, 2016 and 2015, we had no cash provided by or used in investing activities.
During the year ended April 30, 2016, net cash provided by financing activities was $115,014, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable of $159,000, partially offset by repayment of convertible notes payable of $43,986.
During the year ended April 30, 2015, net cash provided by financing activities was $70,050, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable of $68,500 and proceeds from convertible notes payable – related parties of $53,900, partially offset by payments on convertible notes payable of $30,500 and payments on convertible notes payable – related parties of $21,850.
We have not realized any revenues since inception and paid expenses and costs with proceeds from the issuance of securities as well as by loans from investor, stockholders and other related parties.
We believe a related party and one of our lenders will provide sufficient funds to carry on general operations in the near term. We expect that we will need to raise additional funds, most likely from the sale of securities or from stockholder loans, to be able to complete our exploration program. We may not be successful in our efforts to obtain equity financing to carry out our business plan and there is doubt regarding our ability to complete our planned exploration program.
As of April 30, 2016, we did not have sufficient cash to fund our operations for the next twelve months.
Effective July 18, 2016, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note with an institutional investor for $189,000, with net proceeds to the Company of $175,000. The note bears interest at an annual rate of 8%, matures on January 17, 2017 and is convertible into common shares of the Company after six months at a fixed conversion price of $0.25 per share. In the event of default, the conversion price changes to a variable price based on a defined discount to the market price of the Company's common stock. The net proceeds were used to
retire two outstanding convertible promissory notes and to provide working capital.

In the opinion of management, inflation has not and will not have a material effect on our operations until such time as we successfully complete an acquisition or merger. At that time, management will evaluate the possible effects of inflation related to our business and operations following a successful acquisition or merger.

Net Operating Loss Carryforward
We have accumulated a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $1,975,000 as of April 30, 2016. This loss carry forward may be offset against future taxable income through the year 2037. The use of these losses to reduce future income taxes will depend on the generation of sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the net operating loss carryforward. In the event of certain changes in control, there will be an annual limitation on the amount of net operating loss carryforward that can be used. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements for the years ended April 30, 2016 and 2015 because it has been fully offset by a valuation reserve. The use of future tax benefit is undeterminable because we presently have no operations.
Due to the change in ownership provisions of U.S. federal and Canada and British Columbia income tax laws, operating loss carryforwards are potentially subject to annual limitations. As a result of the change in ownership of the Company, $1,502,000 of net operating loss carryforwards have been deemed to have been forfeited. The net operating loss balance above reflects the forfeiture of this carryforward.
Critical Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basic and Diluted Loss per Common Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260,
Earnings per Share
, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted loss per share ("EPS") on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, convertible preferred stock, and convertible debt, using the if-converted 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 potentially dilutive common shares if their effect is antidilutive. As of April 30, 2016, convertible debt and related accrued interest payable were convertible into 12,730,870 shares of the Company's common stock and 1,068,333 shares of the Company's common stock were issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants.
Dividends
The Company has not adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends. No dividends have been paid during any of the periods shown.
Comprehensive Income
The Company has no component of other comprehensive income. Accordingly, net loss equals comprehensive loss for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2016 and 2015.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.
Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes under ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. The Company's predecessor operated as entity exempt from Federal and State income taxes.
ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
25
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.
Accounting Basis
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company has adopted an April 30 fiscal year end.
Derivative Liabilities
We have identified the conversion features of certain of our convertible notes payable as derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using the Black-Scholes pricing model. We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility and variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There were no new accounting pronouncements issued during the year ended April 30, 2016 and through the date of filing this annual report that the Company believes would be applicable to or have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Item 8.
Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
Financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2016 have been examined to the extent indicated in their report by Haynie & Company CPAs, independent registered public accounting firm, and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and pursuant to regulations promulgated by the SEC. The aforementioned financial statements are included herein under Item 15.
Financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2015 have been examined to the extent indicated in their report by HJ & Associates, LLC, independent registered public accounting firm, and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and pursuant to regulations promulgated by the SEC
Item 9.
Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
On January 4, 2016 (the "Resignation Date") HJ & Associates, LLC ("HJ") resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company. On January 8, 2016, the Company engaged Haynie & Company, Salt Lake City, Utah, as its new independent registered public accounting firm. The change of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm from HJ to Haynie & Company was approved unanimously by our board of directors and was solely because Haynie & Company has acquired the assets of HJ.
The reports of HJ on the Company's financial statements for the two most recent fiscal years did not contain an adverse or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the two most recent fiscal years and through the Resignation Date, there were (i) no disagreements between the Company and HJ on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of HJ, would have caused HJ to make reference thereto in their reports on the consolidated financial statements for such years, and (ii) no "reportable events" as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided HJ with a copy of this Form 8-K and requested that HJ furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not HJ agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter, dated January 8, 2016, is attached as Exhibit 16.1.
During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and in the subsequent interim period through the Resignation Date, the Company has not consulted with Haynie & Company regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Haynie & Company concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosures and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of April 30, 2016.
27
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our intent is to design this system to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
We operate with a limited number of accounting and financial personnel. Although we retain the services of an experienced certified public accountant, we have been unable to implement proper segregation of duties over certain accounting and financial reporting processes, including timely and proper documentation of material transactions and agreements. We believe these control deficiencies represent material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.
Despite the material weaknesses in financial reporting noted above, we believe that our consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in all material respects.
We are committed to the establishment of effective internal controls over financial reporting and will place emphasis on quarterly and year-end closing procedures and timely documentation and internal review of accounting and financial reporting consequences of material contracts and agreements.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. The Company's internal control over financial reporting was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other than the matters discussed above, management has concluded that there has been no significant change in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2016 that could materially affect, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
Except as set forth below, we have not entered into any other material transactions with any officer, director, nominee for election as director, or any stockholder owning greater than five percent (5%) of our outstanding shares, nor any member of the above referenced individuals' immediate family.
On May 4, 2014, the Company issued 1,507,080 shares of its common stock to EMAC Handels AG ("EMAC"), a principal stockholder, in the conversion of a $101,000 convertible note payable and accrued interest payable related party of $49,708.
On May 4, 2014, the Company issued 600,000 shares of its common stock to Velania Treuhand AG, a principal stockholder, in the conversion of a $30,000 convertible note payable.
On April 7, 2014, the Company, on behalf of its wholly owned subsidiary, Long Canyon, executed an agreement with EMAC, to acquire a 100% interest in 180 mineral lease claims in the Long Canyon Trend area of Elko, County, Nevada. The Company issued 12,000,000 restricted shares of its common stock to EMAC valued at $240,000, the historical cost basis of the mineral properties to EMAC. This amount was recorded as mineral claims, a non-current asset in the Company's consolidated balance sheets.
The Company and EMAC were unable to make the required annual mineral lease payments due in September 2014 to maintain the 275 optioned claims and the 180 purchased claims. Therefore, these mineral interests were not renewed and the $240,000 cost basis of the 180 mineral lease claims was expensed as abandoned mineral claims in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended April 30, 2015.
During the years ended April 30, 2016 and 2015, management and administrative services were compensated as per a Service Agreement between the Company and Stephen Studdert, its former Chief Executive Officer, executed on April 30, 2011, a Service Agreement between the Company and Delbert Blewett, its former Chief Executive Officer, executed on December 6, 2012 and terminated on his passing in October 2014 , and an Administration Agreement with a EMAC executed on March 15, 2011 and renewed on May 1, 2014. The fees are based on services provided and invoiced by the related parties on a monthly basis and the fees are paid in cash when possible or with the Company's common stock. The Company also, from time to time, has some of its expenses paid by related parties with the intent to repay. These types of transactions, when incurred, result in payables to related parties in the Company's consolidated financial statements as a necessary part of funding the Company's operations.
As of April 30, 2016, the Company had the following payable balances due to related parties, which resulted from transactions with significant shareholders and officers and directors of the Company.

None of our directors are deemed to be independent directors. We do not have a compensation, audit or nominating committee, rather those functions are carried out by the board as a whole
Item 14. Principal Accounting Fees and Services.
We do not have an audit committee and as a result our entire board of directors performs the duties of an audit committee. Our board of directors will approve in advance the scope and cost of the engagement of an auditor before the auditor renders audit and non-audit services. As a result, we do not rely on pre-approval policies and procedures.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Defense Technologies International Corp. (formerly Canyon Gold Corp.)
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Defense Technologies International Corp. (formerly Canyon Gold Corp.) and subsidiary as of April 30, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit 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 also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Defense Technologies International Corp. (formerly Canyon Gold Corp.) and subsidiary as of April 30, 2016, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered significant recurring losses which have resulted in an accumulated deficit. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include an adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Defense Technologies International Corp. and Subsidiary
(Formerly Canyon Gold Corp.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Years Ended April 30, 2016 and 2015
1. Nature of Operations and Continuation of Business
Defense Technologies International Corp. (the "Company ") was incorporated in the State of Delaware on May 27, 1998. Effective June 15, 2016, the Company changed its name to Defense Technologies International Corp. from Canyon Gold Corp. to
more fully represent the Company's expansion goals into the advanced technology sector.
Effective July 15, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the member's equity of Defense Technology Corporation, a privately held Colorado limited liability company ("DTC"). DTC is a developer of defense detection and protection products intended to improve security for military personnel, schools and other public facilities. See Note 3.
On July 20, 2011, the Company acquired 100% of the issued shares of Long Canyon Gold Resources Corp. ("Long Canyon"), a private British Columbia, Canada Corporation, incorporated on June 19, 2008, in a share for share exchange accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization. As a result, the consolidated financial statements of the Company (the legal acquirer) are, in substance, those of Long Canyon (the accounting acquirer) from the effective date of the acquisition. Subsequent to April 30, 2016 Long Canyon renewed leases for 30 BLM mineral lease claims, situated in the west section of the new Long Canyon Gold Trend area of east central Nevada.
The claims had previously lapsed due to late payment of the annual lease obligations.
Going Concern
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern. Through April 30, 2016, the Company has no revenues, has accumulated losses of $4,511,780 since inception on June 19, 2008 and a working capital deficit of $3,061,577 and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which cast substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to continue to provide for the Company's capital needs during the year ending April 30, 2017 by issuing debt and equity securities and by the continued support of its related parties (see Note 5). The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence. There is no assurance that funding will be available to continue the Company's business operations.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a)
Basis of Presentation
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company's fiscal year end is April 30. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Long Canyon Gold Resources Corp. ("Long Canyon"). All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
F - 8
(b)
Exploration Costs
All exploration costs, including lease payments, sampling, metallurgical, engineering, contractor costs, and efforts to obtain mineral rights have been charged to expense as incurred.
(c)
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260,
Earnings per Share
, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted loss per share ("EPS") on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, convertible preferred stock, and convertible debt, using the if-converted 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 potentially dilutive common shares if their effect is antidilutive. As of April 30, 2016, convertible debt and related accrued interest payable were convertible into 12,730,870 shares of the Company's common stock and 1,068,333 shares of the Company's common stock were issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants.
Since we had no dilutive effect of stock options, warrants or convertible debt for the years ended April 30, 2016 and 2015, basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding is the same as diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
(d)
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740,
Income Taxes
. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.
(e)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported 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 reporting period. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company's estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Financial Instruments
Pursuant to ASC 820,
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
and ASC 825,
Financial Instruments,
an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value using a hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence when measuring fair value using a hierarch based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization with the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy prioritized the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
As of April 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company believes the amounts reported for cash, payables, accrued liabilities and amounts due to related parties approximate their fair values due to the nature or duration of these instruments.
Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were estimated as follows at April 30, 2016 and 2015:

(g) Derivative Liabilities
We have identified the conversion features of certain of our convertible notes payable as derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using the Black-Scholes pricing model. We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility and variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.
(h)
Non-Monetary Transactions
All issuances of the Company's common stock for non-cash consideration have been assigned a dollar amount equaling either the market value of the shares issued or the value of consideration received whichever is more readily determinable. The majority of the non-cash consideration received pertains to services rendered by consultants and others and has been valued at the market value of the shares issued.
The Company's accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of ASC 505,
Equity Based Payments to Non Employees
. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is complete.
In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.
(i)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all investments purchased with original maturity of three or fewer months to be cash equivalents.
3. Defense Technology Corporation Acquisition
On October 5, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of Defense Technology Corporation, a privately held Colorado limited liability company with principal offices in New Port Richey, Florida ("DTC"). DTC is the developer of defense, detection and protection products to improve security for military personnel and schools and other public facilities.
In consideration for the acquisition, the Company will issue 4,000,000 shares of its common stock to the sole shareholder of DTC and certain of its note holders. The shares will be restricted from trading for a period of one year and will be released on a quarterly basis. Additionally, DTC will be able to earn additional Company preferred shares, Series "B" Convertible ("Series "B" Shares"), upon attaining certain milestone gross sales. The closing of the acquisition was scheduled on or before November 30, 2015 and was subsequently extended to December 31, 2015. The closing was further extended to and completed on July 15, 2016 to allow for completion of the audit of DTC's financial statements. Following completion of the acquisition, DTC became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effectuate a spin-off of its present subsidiary, Long Canyon Gold Resources Corp., on terms to be determined.

4. Mineral Claims
On March 12, 2011, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Long Canyon, acquired a 100% interest in 30 mineral claims located in the State of Nevada for $37,820. This amount was recorded as mineral claims, a non-current asset in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company was unable to renew the mineral claims prior to April 30, 2016, and the $37,820 was expensed to abandoned mineral claims in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended April 30, 2016. Subsequent to April 30, 2016, Long Canyon renewed the mineral claims (see Note 13).
On April 7, 2014, the Company, on behalf of Long Canyon, executed an agreement with EMAC, the majority shareholder of the Company at the date of the agreement and a related party, to acquire a 100% interest in 180 mineral lease claims in the Long Canyon Trend area of Elko, County, Nevada. The Company issued 12,000,000 restricted shares of its common stock to EMAC valued at $240,000, the historical cost basis of the mineral properties to EMAC. This amount was recorded as mineral claims, a non-current asset in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company and EMAC were subsequently unable to make the required annual mineral lease payments to maintain the claims. Therefore, these mineral interests were not renewed and the $240,000 cost basis of the claims was expensed as abandoned mineral claims in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended April 30, 2015.
The Company is committed to pay a 3% Net Smelter Royalty on all the claims acquired by Long Canyon.
5. Related Party Transactions and Balances
During the years ended April 30, 2016 and 2015, management and administrative services were compensated as per a Service Agreement between the Company and a former Chief Executive Officer executed on April 30, 2011, a Service Agreement between the Company and a former Chief Executive Officer executed on December 6, 2012, and an Administration Agreement with a related party executed on March 15, 2011 and renewed on May 1, 2014. The fees are based on services provided and invoiced by the related parties on a monthly basis and the fees are paid in cash when possible or with the Company's common stock. The Company also, from time to time, has some of its expenses paid by related parties with the intent to repay. These types of transactions, when incurred, result in payables to related parties in the Company's consolidated financial statements as a necessary part of funding the Company's operations.
See Note 4 for discussion of the acquisition of mineral claims from a related party.
As of April 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had payable balances due to related parties totaling $565,459 and $369,178, respectively, which resulted from transactions with significant shareholders and officers and directors of the Company.

On April 30, 2016, the convertible notes payable with principal balances of $11,000, $9,000, $141,150, $14,500 and $20,000 were amended to establish a conversion price of $0.05 per share, interest at 6% retroactive to the original issuance date of the notes, and a conversion date of 90 days from demand of the lender. The amendments were determined to be extinguishments of the prior debt and the issuance of new debt in accordance with ASC 470-50,
Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments
, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt totaling $33,237. In addition, the Company recorded a debt discount and a beneficial conversion feature totaling $195,650 at the inception of the new debt.

At any time for the period beginning on the date of the note and ending on the date which is 30 days following the date of the note, the Company could prepay the note upon payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal multiplied by 120%, together with accrued and unpaid interest. The amount of the prepayment increased every subsequent 30 days to 125%, 130%, 135%, 140% and 145% of the outstanding principal together with accrued and unpaid interest. After the expiration of 180 days following the date of the note, the Company had no right of prepayment.
At the inception of the convertible note to institutional investor, the Company recorded debt issuance costs of $3,000 in prepaid expenses, and a debt discount and derivative liability of $37,325 related to the conversion feature.

On February 4, 2016, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note with an institutional investor for $41,000, which matures on February 4, 2017. The Company may repay the note at any time on or before the date that is 120 days after the date of the note. If the Company does not repay the note during the first 120 days, a one-time interest charge of 12% will be charged. After the first 120 days, the note may be prepaid by the Company with the prior written consent of the investor at 125% of the principal owed.

The estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities at April 30, 2016 was calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions:
|
Risk-free interest rate
|
0.40% - 0.48%
|

|
0.57 – 0.77
|
|
Dividend yield

Expected volatility

158.45% - 167.70%
|
These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.
Accrued interest and fees payable was $63,979 and $2,383 at April 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
7. Income Taxes
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by the valuation allowances when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Net deferred tax assets consist of the following components at April 30:

At April 30, 2016, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $1,975,000 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2035. No tax benefit has been reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.
The Company has adopted the Income Tax topic of FASB ASC 740,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
. Included in the balance at April 30, 2016, are no tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is uncertain. Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, other than interest and penalties, the disallowance of the shorter deductibility period would not affect the annual effective tax rate but would accelerate the payment of cash to the taxing authority to an earlier period.
The Company's policy is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.
Due to the change in ownership provisions of U.S. federal and Canada and British Columbia income tax laws, operating loss carryforwards are potentially subject to annual limitations. As a result of the change in ownership of the Company, $1,502,000 of net operating loss carryforwards have been deemed to have been forfeit. The net operating loss balance above reflects the forfeiture of this carryforward.
8. Stockholders' Deficit
Common Stock:
