CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some of the information in this prospectus contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements represent our current expectations or forecasts of future events and are based on our management's beliefs, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to them. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include the words "anticipate," "believe," "budget," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "objective," "plan," “probable” "possible," "potential," "project" and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performances.

Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this Form 20-F may turn out to be incorrect. They can be affected by inaccurate assumptions, or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Many of these factors, including the risks outlined under "Risk Factors," will be important in determining our actual future results, which may differ materially from those contemplated in any forward-looking statements. These factors include, among others, the following:

- oil and natural gas price volatility;

uncertainties in the estimates of proved reserves, and in the projection of future rates of production and timing of development expenditures;

our ability to find and acquire additional reserves;

risks associated with acquisitions, exploration, development and production;

operating hazards attendant to the oil and natural gas business;

potential constraints on our ability to market reserves due to limited transportation space;

climatic conditions;

availability and cost of labor, material, equipment and capital;

ability to employ and retain key managerial and technical personnel;

international, national, regional or local political and economic uncertainties, including changes in energy policies, foreign exchange restrictions and currency fluctuations;

adverse regulatory or legal decisions, including those under environmental laws and regulations;

environmental risks;

the strength and financial resources of our competitors;

general economic conditions; and

our ability to continue as a “going concern”.

When you consider these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind these risk factors and other cautionary statements in this prospectus. Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, they are subject to a variety of variables which could cause actual results or trends to differ materially. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as otherwise required by United States securities laws, we are under no duty to update any of the forward looking statements after the date of this Form 20-F to conform them to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

B. Risk Factors

General Business Risks

We Have a History of Operating Losses Which May Affect Our Ability to Continue Operations.

We sustained net losses for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 of $3,248,783, $1,201,745, and $4,237,263, respectively. We also anticipate sustaining a loss from operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

Our Ability to Continue Operations as a Going Concern in the Future is Dependent on the Success of Our Investments and Our Ability to Discover Economically Recoverable Reserves

Our business success is dependent upon the success of our investments and our ability to indirectly or directly discover economically recoverable reserves, and to bring such reserves into profitable production, and is subject to a number of risks, including environmental risks, contractual risks, legal and political risks, fluctuations in the price of oil and gas, and other factors beyond our control.

The consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared by management on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a “going concern”. Management believes the “going concern” basis, which presumes the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future, is appropriate. We have experienced significant operating losses and cash outflows from operations in the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, and have no producing properties. Our ability to continue as a “going concern” is dependent on achieving profitable operations and upon obtaining additional financing. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time.

Although We Believe We Have the Sufficient Working Capital as of June 30, 2011 to Support Our Business in 2011, We May Need Additional Funds in Order to Implement Our Intended Projects and There is No Assurance that Such Funds Will Be Available As, If, and When, Needed.

Funds used in operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008 were $492,465 $(440,688), and $(1,480,714), respectively. We have been dependent upon the proceeds of equity and debt financing in addition to the disposition of assets to fund operations. No assurances can be given that our actual cash requirements will not exceed our budget, that anticipated revenues will be realized, that, when needed, lines of credit will be available if necessary or that additional capital will be available to us. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain such additional funds on terms and conditions we may deem acceptable. Failure to obtain such additional funds may materially and adversely affect our ability to acquire interests directly or indirectly in producing oil and gas and mineral properties.

We Do Not Intend to Pay Dividends In the Foreseeable Future, and thus, You Should Not Expect to Receive Dividends.

We have paid no dividends on our common shares since inception, and do not plan to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. See " Description of Common Shares. "

The Market Price of Our Common Shares Has Been, and Will Likely Continue to Be, Volatile.

The market price of our common shares has fluctuated over a wide range, and it is likely that the price of our common shares will fluctuate in the future. Further, announcements regarding acquisitions, the status of corporate collaborations, regulatory approvals or other developments by us or our competitors could have a significant impact on the market price of our common shares.

The Value and Transferability of Our Shares May Be Adversely Impacted By the Limited Trading Market For Our Shares and the Penny Stock Rules.

There is only a limited trading market for our shares on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board Exchange (“OTCBB”). There can be no assurance that this market will be sustained, or that we will be able to satisfy any future trading criteria that may be imposed by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”).

In addition, holders of our common shares may experience substantial difficulty in selling their securities as a result of the “penny stock rules” which apply to our common shares. Under the penny stock rules, the Securities and Exchange Commission imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse). For transactions covered by the rules, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities, and also may affect the ability of purchasers of our stock to sell their shares in the secondary market. It may also cause fewer broker-dealers to make a market in our common shares.

The Large Number of Shares Eligible For Future Sale By Existing Shareholders May Adversely Affect the Market Price For Our Common Shares.

Future sales of substantial amounts of common shares in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common shares. At June 10, 2011, we had 439,143,765 common shares outstanding. . We currently have 270,307,423 shares available to be sold pursuant to Rule 144. We intend to include these common shares in a future Registration Statement to be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, registering the common shares for sale.

No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that sales of shares of common shares or the availability of such shares for sale will have on the market prices of our common shares prevailing from time to time. The possibility that substantial amounts of our common shares may be sold under SEC Rule 144 into the public market may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common shares and could impair our ability to raise capital in the future through the sale of equity securities. A total of 270,307,423 are currently able to be resold under Rule 144.

Your vote may not affect the outcome of any shareholder vote since our principal stockholder currently retains approximately 51% of our outstanding stock.

For instance, Philex Mining Corporation may be able to control the outcome of all stockholder votes, including votes concerning director elections, charter and by-law amendments and possible mergers, corporate control contests and other significant corporate transactions which may not be in the interests of all shareholders.

Foreign Laws, Rules and Environmental Regulations to Which We Are Subject May Adversely Affect Our Business Operations As Well As the Market Price For Our Stock.

The production of oil and gas and the extraction of minerals by companies we invest in or by ourselves is generally subject to extensive laws, rules, orders and regulations governing a wide variety of matters, including the drilling and spacing of wells, allowable rates of production, prevention of waste and pollution and protection of the environment. In addition to the direct costs borne in complying with such regulations, operations and revenues may be impacted to the extent that certain regulations limit oil and gas and mineral production to below economic levels. Although the particular regulations applicable in each jurisdiction in which operations are conducted vary, such regulations are generally designed to ensure that oil and gas operations are carried out in a safe and efficient manner, and to ensure that similarly-situated operators are provided with reasonable opportunities to produce their respective fair share of available crude oil, natural gas, and mineral reserves. However, since these regulations generally apply to all oil and gas producers, we believe that these regulations should not put us at a material disadvantage to other oil, gas and mineral producers.

Operating Risks - Oil and Gas Exploration Activities

We Do Not Currently Directly Own Properties With Oil or Gas or Mineral Reserves. Our Failure to Find or Acquire Available Reserves May Adversely Impact Our Business Operations.

We do not own any properties or investments with oil, natural gas or mineral reserves. Our future oil, natural gas, or mineral reserves, production, and therefore, cash flow and income, as well as our success are highly dependent on success in finding or acquiring recoverable reserves by ourselves or through our investments. We cannot assure shareholders that we will be able to develop, exploit, find or acquire reserves to replace future production, if any.

Exploring For and Producing Oil and Natural Gas and Minerals Are High-Risk Activities With Many Uncertainties That Could Adversely Affect Our Business, Financial Condition or Results of Operations.

Exploration and development of oil and gas and mineral resources involve a high degree of risk, and few properties which are explored are ultimately developed into producing properties. There is no assurance that our exploration and development activities or those of companies that we invest in will result in any discoveries of commercial bodies of oil, gas or minerals. The long-term profitability of our operations will be, in part, directly related to the cost and success of our exploration programs or those of companies we invest in which may be affected by a number of factors. Substantial expenditures are required to establish reserves through drilling, to develop processes to extract the resources, and, in the case of new properties, to develop the extraction and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for extraction. Although substantial benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major deposit of oil, gas or minerals, no assurance can be given that natural resources will be discovered in sufficient quantities to justify commercial operations or that the funds required for development can be obtained on a timely basis.

If We Or Companies We Invest In Are Unable to Continue to Identify, Explore and Develop New Properties, Our Business Operations May Be Adversely Affected.

We expect that to be successful in our oil and gas and mineral exploration activities, we must continually acquire or explore for and develop new oil and gas reserves to replace those, if any, being depleted by production by ourselves or by companies we invest in. Without successful drilling or acquisition ventures, our direct and indirect oil and gas assets, mineral assets and, properties and the revenues derived there from, if any, will decline over time. To the extent we engage in drilling activities directly or indirectly, such activities carry the risk that no commercially viable oil or gas production or mineral extraction will be obtained. The cost of drilling, completing and operating oil and gas wells is often uncertain. Moreover, drilling for oil and gas and minerals may be curtailed, delayed or cancelled as a result of many factors, including shortage of available working capital, title problems, weather conditions, environmental concerns, government prohibitions, shortages of or delays in delivery of equipment, as well as the financial instability of well operators, major working interest owners, and drilling and well servicing companies. The availability of a ready market for oil and gas and minerals will depend on numerous factors beyond our control, including the demand for and supply of oil and gas and minerals, the proximity of natural gas reserves to pipelines, the capacity of such pipelines, the proximity of any smelting facilities in relation to any minerals found, fluctuations in seasonal demand, the effects of inclement weather, and government regulation. New gas wells may be “shut-in” for lack of a market until a gas pipeline or gathering system with available capacity is extended into an area.

The Exploration and Development of Oil and Gas and Mineral Properties are Subject to Operating Hazards and Risks for Which We Will Be Uninsured .

Exploration for natural resources involves many risks, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. Operations in which we expect to acquire an interest will be subject to all the hazards and risks normally incidental to exploration, development and production of resources, any of which could result in work stoppages, damage to persons or property and possible environmental damage. These include the possibility of fires, earthquake activity, coastal erosion, explosions, blowouts, oil spills or seepage, gas leaks, discharge of toxic gas, over-pressurized formations, unusual or unexpected geological conditions and the absence of economically viable reserves. These hazards may result in cost overruns, substantial losses, and/or exposure to substantial environmental and other liabilities.

Fluctuating Resource Prices May Adversely Impact Our Operations and Activities.

The price of natural resources has traditionally been subject to wide fluctuations, particularly in recent years, and is affected by numerous factors beyond our control including international, economic and political trends, expectations of inflation, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rates, global or regional consumptive patterns, speculative activities and increased production due to new extraction developments and improved extraction and production methods. The effect of these factors on the price of oil and gas and minerals, and therefore, the economic viability of any of our exploration projects or those of our investments, cannot accurately be predicted.

If We Fail to Fulfill Our Obligations Under Our Purchase Option and Joint Venture Agreements, Not Only Will Our Operations Be Adversely Affected, But We May Lose Our Interest In the Property in Question .

We may, in the future, be unable to meet our share of costs incurred under joint venture agreements or other option or joint venture agreements to which we are, or may become a party, and we may have our interest in properties, in which we may acquire interests subject to such agreements, reduced as a result. Furthermore, if other parties to such agreements do not meet their share of such costs, we may be unable to finance the cost required to complete recommended programs.

It Is Possible that Our Title for the Claims in Which We Have an Interest Will Be Challenged By Third Parties.

Although we will attempt to ascertain the status of the title for any projects in which we have or will acquire a material interest, there is no guarantee that title to such concessions will not be challenged or impugned. In some countries, the system for recording title to the rights to explore, develop, and mine natural resources is such that a title opinion provides only minimal comfort that the holder has title. Also, in many countries, claims have been made and new claims are being made by aboriginal peoples that call into question the property rights granted by the governments of those countries.

Reserve Estimates for Resources That May Be Reported By Us Are Dependent On Many Assumptions that May Ultimately Turn Out to Be Inaccurate.

Reserve estimates are imprecise and may be expected to change as additional information becomes available. Furthermore, estimates of reserves of natural resources, of necessity, are projections based on engineering data and there are uncertainties inherent in the interpretation of such data as well as the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. Reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil, gas and minerals that cannot be measured in an exact way and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the information regarding reserves of natural resources, if any, set forth herein will ultimately be produced.

Any Resource Production That We May Undertake and Marketing or That of Companies That we Have Invested In May Be Adversely Affected By Factors Beyond Our Control.

The production and marketing of resources are affected by a number of competitive factors which are beyond our control and the effect of which cannot be accurately predicted. These factors include crude oil and mineral imports, actions by foreign oil-producing nations and other mineral producers, the availability of adequate pipeline and other transportation facilities, the availability of equipment and personnel, the marketing of competitive fuels and minerals, the effect of governmental regulations, and other matters affecting the availability of a ready market such as fluctuating supply and demand.

Our Operations Will Be Subject to Numerous Environmental Risks If We Are Successful In Obtaining Properties That Have Proven Resources Or If We Undertake Exploration Activities Ourselves .

Our resource operations and those of companies we invest in, if any will be subject to compliance with applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations controlling the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment. We believe that there is a trend toward stricter standards of environmental regulation which will in all probability continue. Compliance with such laws and standards may cause substantial delays and require capital outlays in excess of those anticipated, thereby adversely affecting our earnings and competitive position in the future.

Since We May Acquire Holdings In Properties In Less Developed Countries and Have Indirectly Acquired Holdings in Properties In Less Developed Countries, Our Operations May Be Adversely Affected By Risks Associated With the Political, Economic and Social Climate of the Countries In Which We Will Operate or Have Indirect Holdings .

Since our direct and indirect exploration and development activities will occur primarily in countries other than Canada and the United States, we may be affected by possible political or economic instability in those countries. The risks include, but are not limited to, terrorism, military repression, extreme fluctuations in currency exchange rates, and high rates of inflation. Changes in resource development or investment policies or shifts in political attitude in these countries may adversely affect our business. Operations may be effected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to restrictions on production, price controls, export controls, income taxes, expropriation of property, maintenance of claims, environmental legislation, land use, land claims of local people, water use and mine safety. The effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted. Exploration and production activities in areas outside of the United States and Canada are also subject to the risks inherent in foreign operations, including loss of revenue, property and equipment as a result of hazards such as expropriation, nationalization, war, insurrection and other political risks.

We Face Competition From Larger and Better Financed Companies Seeking to Acquire Properties In Our Sphere of Operation.

The resource industry is highly competitive, and our business could be harmed by competition from other companies. Because resources are fungible commodities, the principal form of competition is price competition. We will strive to maintain the lowest exploration and production costs possible to maximize profits and insure that any companies in which we invest do the same. In addition, as an independent resource company, we frequently compete for reserve acquisitions, exploration leases, licenses, concessions and marketing agreements against companies with financial and other resources substantially larger than we possess. Many of our competitors have established strategic long term positions and maintain strong governmental relationships in countries in which we may seek entry.

We Currently Do Not Maintain Insurance Against Potential Losses and Unexpected Liabilities.

As previously stated herein, exploration for and production of resources can be hazardous, involving natural disasters and other unforeseen occurrences such as “blowouts”, “cratering”, fires and loss of well control, which can damage or destroy wells or production facilities, injure or kill people, and damage property and the environment. Although we intend to maintain insurance against many potential losses or liabilities arising from our operations in accordance with customary industry practices and in amounts that we believe to be prudent, we do not presently have such insurance coverage; and, even if we were to obtain such insurance coverage, there is no assurance that it will be adequate to protect against all operational risks, or subject to defenses or exclusions against insurance coverage.

We Are Dependent On Retaining Our Senior Management and Key Personnel.

To a large extent, we depend on the services of our senior management personnel. These individuals have critical and unique knowledge of the areas of operations that facilitate the evaluation and acquisition of potential properties in our intended sphere of operations. The loss of these experienced personnel, if that were to occur, could have a material adverse impact on our ability to compete in this region of the world. We do not maintain any insurance against the loss of any management personnel.

Our Directors May Face Conflicts of Interest In Connection With Our Participation In Certain Ventures Because They Are Directors of Other Resource Companies.

Some of our directors participate in other resource companies and to the extent that such other companies may participate in ventures in which we may participate, our directors may have a conflict of interest in negotiating and concluding terms respecting the extent of such participation. It is possible that due to our directors’ conflicting interests, we may be precluded from participating in certain projects that we might otherwise have participated in or we may obtain less favorable terms on certain projects than we might have obtained if our directors were not also the directors of other participating mineral resource companies. In their effort to balance their conflicting interests, our directors may approve terms that are equally favorable to all of their companies as opposed to negotiating terms that may be more favorable to us, but adverse to their other companies. Additionally, it is possible that we may not be afforded certain opportunities to participate in particular projects because such projects are assigned to our directors’ other companies for which the directors may deem the projects to have a greater benefit.

Our security holders may not be able to enforce U.S. civil liabilities claims thereby limiting their ability to collect on claims against us.

We are incorporated in Canada and the majority of our directors and officers are nationals and/or residents of countries other than the United States. All or a substantial portion of the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of Canada would recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against us or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, or be competent to hear original actions brought in these countries against us or such persons predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof.

ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A. Our Corporate History and Development.

We were incorporated on February 8, 1982 in British Columbia, Canada under the name Tylox Corporation. Our continuance under the Canada Business Corporation Act resulted in, among other things, our name change, first in December 1991, to Tracer Petroleum Corporation, followed in July 2003, to Forum Energy Corporation. On May 18, 2005, we changed our name to FEC Resources, Inc. We have no subsidiaries. Prior to May 18, 2005, we owned 66 2/3% of Forum Exploration, Inc. (“FEI”) a Philippine-based oil and gas company with rights to develop certain concession areas as more fully described later in this document. On May 18, 2005, we sold our interest in FEI to Forum Energy Plc (“FEP”) for shares of FEP and cash as more fully described later in this document. We currently hold 25.63% of the issued and outstanding capital of FEP, and in addition we hold a 35% interest in Metalore Mining Corporation (“MMC”), a Philippine-based company that holds the rights to a 64 hectare license which has been abandoned. We also own a 40% interest in MPSA 148, a gold exploration project, through Lascogon Mining Corporation in the Philippines.

We are engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and, when warranted, development of natural resource and mineral properties. Although we currently are not the operator with respect to interests we hold, we are actively seeking projects where our involvement would be more than management and advisory. We are currently focused on the development of one (1) mineral license in the Philippines. The license is held by Lascogon Mining Corporation (“Lascogon Mining”) which was acquired from Philex Gold Philippines Inc., a subsidiary of Philex Mining Corporation, our largest shareholder.

Our head office is located at 46 Royal Ridge Rise NW, Calgary, Alberta T3G 4V2. Our phone number is (403) 290-1676.

B. Business Overview

At this time, we do not have any significant revenue-generating assets, and as a result, rely upon equity and/or debt financing to fund ongoing operations. We have experienced large operating losses and cash outflows and, as such, our ability to continue as a “going concern” is dependant upon achieving profitable operations and upon obtaining additional financing. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. MMC had begun producing nominal quantities of iron ore which were expected to provide cash flow to us, but operations were shut down in 2006 for environmental and political reasons. After elections were completed, we filed for a mineral production and sharing agreement (“MPSA”) covering the current and surrounding area which we believed would be granted and would have allowed production to resume. To date the MPSA has not been granted and the operations of MMC are still dormant and have been abandoned.

Recent Developments

In April 2009, we signed a loan agreement with our parent company, Philex Mining Corporation. The US$273,000 loan bears interest at the Libor rate plus three percent and is repayable by 31 December 2010, though extendable upon agreement. Interest is payable every six months.

In April 2010, we completed a private placement with Philex Mining Corporation of 5,000,000 shares at US$0.50 per share.

On December 31, 2010, we determined that the results from the exploration program on MPSA 148 would no longer support its carrying value and therefore we recorded an impairment of the entire investment.

The Philippines

We are currently pursuing exploration and development opportunities for oil, natural gas, iron ore, gold, and coal in the Philippines through various companies that we hold interests in. FEP, in which we own a 25.63% equity interest. The principal asset of FEP is the oil and gas rights over a 8,800 square-kilometer block located in the South China Sea. In addition FEP holds interests in various other concessions located in the Philippines..

In addition, we are involved in the exploration for gold through our interest in Lascogon Mining Corporation.

Forum Energy Plc.

We currently own 25.63% of FEP.

FEP was established through the consolidation in 2005 of the Philippine assets of FEC Resources, Inc. of Canada, and Sterling Energy Plc of the UK, into one corporate entity. The current holdings of FEP are based mainly in the Philippines and include:

·	70% interest in Service Contract 72 (SC 72), an offshore license which contains the Sampaguita Gas Field as well as several additional oil and gas leads;

·	66.7% interest in SC 40 (Cebu), a service contract which contains the onshore Libertad Gas Field and Maya discovery and several other prospects; and

·	100% interest in Forum Energy Philippines Corporation (formerly known as Basic Petroleum and Minerals Inc.), a company with varying interests in nine (9) offshore fields west of the Philippines including a 2.27% interest in the producing Galoc Field.

SC 72 (Reed Bank) formerly GSEC101

The SC72 concession (Reed Bank), is located in the South China Sea west of Palawan Island.

The license was awarded to Sterling Energy Plc in June 2002. Exploration in the area began in 1970 and in 1976 gas was discovered following the drilling of a well. In total, four (4) wells have been drilled to date, all located at the south west end of the license. Two (2) of the wells tested gas at rates of 3.6 mmcf/d and 3.2 mmcf/d.

In 2003, Sterling reprocessed 250 km of 2D seismic and completed a feasibility study on a GTL (gas-to-liquid) development scenario for the gas field. The seismic work and the GTL study fulfilled the initial work commitments on the concession and Sterling was granted a twelve (12) month extension in June 2004. In 2005, Forum acquired new 250 square kilometers of new 3D seismic data over the license area fulfilling its work commitments required under the twelve (12) month extension.

In September 2006, results of the interpretation of the 3D seismic program at the Sampaguita gas discovery indicated a significant gas accumulation.

In 2008, FEP finalized farm-out of a 30% interest in the license to a local partner Monte Oro Resources & Energy, Inc. (Monte Oro) in which FEP benefited from an immediate cash payment of US$1.7million, securing Monte Oro’s involvement and thereby qualifying the Joint Venture for the Filipino Participation Incentive Allowance (FPIA) which entitles the Company to 7.5% of gross revenues, prior to sharing revenues with the government

On 15 February 2010, SC72 was awarded to Forum Energy in respect

On 15 February 2010, the full service contract over the area was granted to Forum.

During the first quarter of 2011, FEP completed 550 Km2 of 3D seismic and 2,200 line-Km of high resolution 2D seismic over the block. The seismic data is currently being analyzed.

SC 40 (Cebu)

The SC 40 (Cebu) contract area is located in the Visayan Basin in the central part of the Philippines archipelago. The license area covers the northern area of Cebu Island and the adjacent offshore areas in the Central Tañon Strait and Visayan Sea. Since 1994, a total of fifteen (15) wells have been drilled offshore in the Visayan Basin, thirteen (13) of these on the acreage covered by SC 40 (Cebu). Forum Pacific International (“FPI”) acquired an interest in GSEC 69, covering the acreage, in 1994. The concession was subsequently converted to a service contract, SC 40 (Cebu) in 1995.

In September 1997, FPI transferred its interest in SC 40 (Cebu) to Forum Energy International (“FEI”), at that time a wholly owned subsidiary of FPI. SC 40 (Cebu) is now held 100% by FEI. The original term of the service contract was for seven (7) years from 1995. In September 2003, FEI extended the contract for an additional three (3) years, with the following work program commitments:

·	Drill one (1) well and acquire a minimum of 250 kilometers of seismic in year 8;

·	Drill two (2) wells in year 9; and

·	Drill two (2) wells in year 10.

The requirement to acquire the seismic data was deferred by one (1) year by the Philippines Department of Energy (“DOE”) to not later than the end of September 2005, the end of year 9. FEI has the option to declare a field within the contract area commercial, and thus, relinquish 87.5% of the license area and convert the license into a development contract for a minimum twenty-five (25) year period. There are also two (2) production bonuses to pay to the DOE as follows:

·	US$1,000,000 upon production reaching 25,000 bopd;

·	US$2,000,000 upon production reaching 50,000 bopd; and

·	US$3,000,000 upon production reaching 75,000 bopd.

In any year, FEI can recover all recoverable costs from the gross income received under SC 40 (Cebu), provided that the amount does not exceed 70% of total gross income in any year. Operating expenses exceeding 70% of gross income, including years with no income, can be recovered in subsequent years.

In years where operating expenses are below 70%, it is possible to allocate the difference between the actual operating expenses and 70% against the recoverable costs. FEI is required to remit to the DOE an amount equal to 60% of the remaining gross income less FPIA of 7.5%. The remaining net income is subject to Philippine income tax, which is to be paid by the DOE out of its receipt of funds as detailed above.

SC 40 contains a number of prospects and leads including Libertad and Maya. Other prospects and leads within the SC 40 (Cebu) acreage include West Malapascua, South Guintacan, West Toledo, Agojo and North Bantayan.

2D Seismic Survey

FEP completed an offshore 2D seismic acquisition program in the Tañon Straits, west of Cebu Island, Philippines in June 2005. The survey acquired 310 kilometers of new 2D data in license Service Contract 40 (“SC40”), where FEP holds a 66.7% interest. Independent consultants, PGS Reservoir Ltd., estimate that structures already identified within the survey area could have 350 millions of barrels of oil equivalent.

The survey was conducted to improve the mapping of the central Tañon and Jibitnil Island prospects. The new lines acquired between Jibitnil and Cebu Islands will help define more precisely the Jibitnil Island structure, which is cut by several faults. In addition to seismic data, the survey included the acquisition of marine gravity and magnetic data.

Libertad Gas-To-Electricity (“GTE”) Project

The Libertad Gas Field is situated in northern Cebu, north of Cebu City. The field was discovered in the late 1950's, but was not developed. In 1993, a testing program was carried out on two (2) wells and during 1994 and 1995, five (5) additional wells were drilled on Libertad. One of these wells tested gas and subsequently was completed as a gas producer.

In 2004, Forum Energy carried out a feasibility study to determine the most commercially viable option for the development of the Libertad Gas Field. The results of this work recommended a development plan using three (3) GTE generators, with a maximum of 3.0 MW.

During December 2005, the DOE formally granted a Declaration of Commerciality for the development of the onshore Libertad Gas Field within SC40. This represents the first Declaration of Commerciality within the Philippines since Shell’s Malampaya offshore gas field development, which came onstream in 2001. The Declaration of Commerciality also allowed the retention of the portion of SC40 which contains all the currently identified prospects and discoveries.

The Libertad Gas Field will be developed as a GTE project and is expected to generate 1.7 mW of power. The field is progressing towards development, with commercial negotiation of the electricity contract underway. Once completed and equipment requirements are known, full scale development will commence.

During 2009 the Department of Energy approved the Gas Sale & Purchase Agreement in respect of the development of the Libertad Gas Field, thus enabling DESCO to proceed with plans for power generation, and production is anticipated by the third quarter of 2011.

Maya

The Maya area is located on the north eastern tip of Cebu Island. In October 2000, exploration well MST 11A was drilled.

Although the well encountered oil shows, it was terminated due to mechanical problems. A further three (3) wells were drilled in 2003, one of which, Forum 2-X (“F2X”), encountered multiple oil and gas bearing zones, but due to mechanical problems was suspended without proper testing.

FEP is considering further options in respect to Maya.

Coal Operating Contracts (“COCs”)

FEI, which is owned by FEP, was awarded two (2) coal operating contracts on Cebu Island by the DOE on February 23, 2005, located at Balamban-Naga (Central Cebu) and Dalaguete (South Cebu).

During 2008 and 2009 the COCs were divested for a combined gross consideration of US$4.5m in two independent transactions

Basic Petroleum & Minerals Inc. (“BPMI”)

In May 2005, FEP entered into an agreement with Philippines-based Basic Consolidated Inc. (“BCI”), whereby the parties agreed to work under an exclusivity period towards finalizing the purchase by FEP of BCI’s petroleum interests in the Philippines, held through a wholly-owned subsidiary, BPMI. This culminated in February 2006 with the signing of a Share Purchase Agreement whereby FEP agreed to acquire 100% of BPMI in exchange for 933,759 shares of FEP and deferred consideration.

The acquisition was approved by BCI shareholders at the company’s Annual General Meeting on March 29, 2006.

BPMI assets included interests in nine (9) Philippine offshore fields, specifically the Galoc Field (2.27% participating interest) which commenced production in Q4 2008 and is currently in Galoc is now in full production with 2.5 million barrels gross produced in 2009, and 2.69 million barrels gross in 2010. FEP received net revenues of US$0.8 million in 2009 and 2010.

FEP also had nominal production from the SC6/14 Nido/Matinloc fields, which are contained within this block.

Previously, FEP also reported that its interest in the West Linepacan oil discovery was farmed-out for a 2.275% interest carried through development.

On May 10 2011, Forum announced that it had come to a settlement with Basic Energy Corporation ("BEC") in relation to certain of its service contracts in the NW Palawan area, offshore Philippines.

In the course of an arbitration process, on 10 May 2011, BEC and Forum signed a settlement agreement (the "Agreement") in relation to disputes relating to BEC's share in the historical cost recoveries arising from Service Contract 14 A and B (Nido-Matinloc Blocks), Service Contract 14-C (Galoc Block), and other blocks of Service Contract 14 and Service Contract 6, pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement executed by BEC and Forum on 3 April 2006 (the "SPA").

If the terms and conditions of the Agreement are met, Forum will make a cash payment to BEC of US$650,000, and cause the conveyance of (i) 50% of Forum Energy Philippines Corporation's (a wholly owned subsidiary of FEP) ("FEPC") participating interests in the foregoing service contracts, and (ii) 50% of the related recoverable costs, subject to the approval of the Department of Energy.

Upon fulfillment of certain pre-conditions, the parties will submit the Agreement to an arbitration tribunal for the rendition of a final consent award and accordingly FEPC's minority participating interests in its producing fields will be reduced, and consequently Forum 's group revenues and its gross profits will be reduced accordingly, as follows:

· Galoc (SC14C-1): participating interest will fall by 50% to 1.137875%

. Galoc produced 2.69 million barrels in 2010 (gross) with an estimated 1.76 million barrels expected to be produced in 2011 (gross)

· Nido (SC14A): participating interest will fall by 50% to 4.234%. Nido produced 86,626 barrels in 2010 (gross) with an estimated 65,000 barrels expected to be produced in 2011 (gross)

· Matinloc (SC14B) and North Matinloc (SC14B-1): participating interests will fall by 50% to 6.203% and 9.7315%, respectively. Matinloc and North Matinloc had a combined production of 88,237 barrels in 2010 (gross) with an estimated 91,680 barrels expected to be produced in 2011 (gross).

If the terms and conditions of the Agreement are met:

· Forum will no longer be liable to pay potential additional consideration of up to US$ 9.03 million on the acquisition of FEPC (formerly Basic Petroleum & Minerals Inc), as was disclosed in the audited results for the year ended 31 December 2010, as announced on 8 March 2011; and

· the Directors believe that no further liabilities in respect of BEC's arbitration claims and other issues arising from the SPA will exist in relation to the service contracts included in the Agreement.

Metalore Mining Corp.

MMC commenced preliminary mining operations at the beginning of October 2005, with iron ore extraction mainly being recovered as strewn boulders and debris recovered from routing of the mine access roads leading to the main iron ore body. As of March, 2006, Metalore had successfully completed and shipped its first iron ore contract. Difficulties were encountered prior to this with overburdens of pyrites, where iron ore had been anticipated, and with environmental compliance.

Mining operations were suspended in September 2006 because of problems caused by six (6) typhoons which hit the area in a three (3) month period and due to intervention by the local government of the Province of Bulacan who are in dispute with the central government (DENR) about who has jurisdiction over the mining operations.

Metalore also decided to suspend mining operations under the Small Scale Mining Permits because of the limitations on equipment, namely the maximum of two (2) heavy excavators/bulldozers per 20 hectares.

Metalore has filed an application for an Exploration Permit over a total of 841 hectares which includes the small scale mining areas in which we were previously operating. Metalore management believed this would be approved after the May 2007 political elections and an MPSA would be granted, which is the relevant permit for large scale mining. To date there has been no further developments and Metalore operations continue to be abandoned.

MPSA148 (Philex Gold Joint Venture)

The surface investigation and limited diamond drilling that started in mid-2005 have identified gold-bearing jasperoid horizons in two (2) prospects, Lascogon and Danao, Philippines.

Starting in July 2006, some 3,000 meters of reverse circulation (RC) drilling over a 30 hectare (approx. 75 acres) area was done covering four (4) prospects. To date, we have spent in excess of $1,000,000 evaluating the property. Most of the effort has focused on the southern portion of the holding and has encountered numerous positive shows of gold and copper, but not in sufficient quantities to warrant entering commercial production.

In 2007, further trenching, drilling, sampling and assays were conducted on MPSA 148. These were done initially on the Lascogan and Danua areas, then later, surveying, drilling and sampling on the Nabago prospective area.

We recently received a technical report in respect of the Lascogon Project prepared by Mr. Dexter S. Ferriera (a senior geostatistician and mining engineer at Independent Resource Estimation or IRES) in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects . We evaluated the technical report and determined that the work completed on the Lascogon Project to date did not determine an economically viable gold reserve. Accordingly, we have fully written down our investment in Lascogon.

We still have unfunded cash calls which remain outstanding and to date, our stake in Lascogon has not yet been diluted by PGPI and this still remains an open item.

C. Organizational Structure

We have no subsidiaries.

ITEM 4A. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

N/A

ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS.

We have experienced significant operating losses and fund outflows from operations over the last few years, and as a result, our ability to continue as a “going concern” is dependent on achieving profitable operations and/or upon obtaining additional financing.

Our audited financial statements were prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP, which are different from US GAAP (refer to the Auditors’ Report dated April 28, 2011).

The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations for transactions denominated in U.S. dollars; however this risk is partially mitigated as the majority of the Company’s cash is kept in U.S. dollars. As at December 31, 2010, the Company held $2,043,652 (US$2,054,748) (2009 - $36,524 (US$34,752)) of cash denominated in U.S. dollars subject to exchange rate fluctuations between the Canadian dollars and the U.S. dollars.

The following discussion and analysis of financial results should be read in conjunction with our Audited Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, together with the notes related thereto. The discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Such information, although considered reasonable by our management at the time of preparation, may prove to be inaccurate and actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in the statements made.

Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2010 versus Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2009 (in 000’s)

We hold 8,550,200 shares (25.63%) of the capital of Forum Energy, an AIM listed company which has a participating interest in 11 service contracts in the Philippines, three of which are in production, one of which is in the development stage and seven of which are in the exploration and appraisal stage. Forum Energy and ourselves are both subsidiaries of Philex Petroleum Corporation and are therefore affiliates of each other. We advise that: (i) the sole nature of our oil and gas activities is as a holder of 25.63% of the shares of Forum Energy; and (ii) outside of information publicly made available by Forum Energy, we are not privy to information of the status of Forum Energy’s oil and gas activities on any of its projects

Forum Energy’s principal asset is the recently converted Service Contract 72 (“SC72”) (previously referred to as GSEC101), a petroleum license located offshore West of Palawan Island, Philippines. Forum Energy has completed a work program for the first sub-phase of SC72. The work program was designed to provide a more comprehensive valuation of the contract area and identify potential sites for appraisal wells. The work program included 3D seismic work over an area of up to 550 km2 over and around the Sampaguita gas discovery, and 2,200 km of high resolution 2D over existing leads within the 8,800 km2 contract area. The seismic data is now under technical analysis. Forum Energy’s share of the first sub-phase work program is estimated to cost up to approximately US $7.4 million, and will be funded

through a US $10 million facility agreement with Forum Energy’s principal shareholder, Philex Mining

Corporation (“Philex Mining”).

Lascogon Mining Corporation (“Lascogon”)

We hold a 40% interest in Lascogon, which is a party to Mineral Production Sharing Agreement No. 148 with the Government of the Philippines (“MPSA 148”) which covers an area of 2,306 hectares (the “Lascogon Project”). The Lascogon Project has not been a core project of either us or our joint venture partner and the operator of the Lascogon Project, Philex Gold Philippines Inc. (“PGPI”), an affiliate of the ours, and therefore very little activity was undertaken on the project from December 31, 2009 to December 31, 2010.

Exploration during fiscal 2009 on the Lascogon Project was limited to trenching activities as recommended by project consultant IRES to provide additional basis for resource estimation. Limited work was completed on the property during fiscal 2010. We recently received a technical report in respect of the Lascogon Project prepared by Mr. Dexter S. Ferriera (a senior geostatistician and mining engineer at Independent Resource Estimation or IRES) in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects . Our board of directors evaluated the technical report and determined that the work completed on the Lascogon Project to date did not determine an economically viable gold reserve. Accordingly, we have fully written down our investment in Lascogon.

We still have unfunded cash calls which remain outstanding and to date, our stake in Lascogon has not yet been diluted by PGPI and this still remains an open item.

Metalore Mining Corporation (“Metalore”)

We continue to hold shares of the project joint venture company, MMC, but we have effectively abandoned the property that was previously held by the joint venture company.

Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2010 versus Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2009 (in 000’s)

Our consolidated accounts show a loss for the year ended December 31, 2010 of $3,248 or $(0.01) per

share, versus a loss of $1,202 or $Nil per share for the year ended December 31, 2009. General and Administration expense were $527 for the year ended December 31, 2010 versus $456 for the same period in 2009. We recorded amortization of $1.5 for the year ended December 31, 2010 versus $2.2 for the same period in 2009. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $11.3 versus 8.0 for the same period in the previous year. The difference was because of the interest on the outstanding advance from Philex Mining. Overall expenses were similar to those experienced in the previous year. For the year ended December 31, 2010 foreign exchange loss was $59.8 versus a gain of $2.3 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Equity in loss of investments in Lascogon, Metalore and Forum Energy was $56 for the year ended

December 31, 2010 versus $1,046 for the previous year as under the equity method of accounting the

Corporation is required to report its share of net income or net loss in its statement of operations and reduce or increase its investment by the same amount. Our share of Forum Energy’s loss was a large

part of the equity in loss of investments however was significantly reduced for the year ended December 31, 2010 due to revenues that were earned by Forum Energy that offset a large part of their expenses.

No shares of Forum Energy were sold to fund operations during the year.

Interest income was $2.2 for the year ended December 31, 2010 versus $0.18 for the previous year. The

difference was a result of the interest earned on the higher cash balance in 2010.

Balance Sheet

Our current assets were $2,070 at December 31, 2010 versus $60 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The difference is mainly a result of the higher cash balance on December 31, 2010. Our assets reflect the value of Forum Energy and Lascogon on an equity basis.

Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2009 versus Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2008 (in 000’s)

We hold 8,550,200 shares or 25.84% of the capital of Forum Energy PLC (FEP).

In 2008 a majority stake in FEP (through holdings in FEC and directly) was acquired by Philex Mining Corporation.

FEP’s main asset is the recently converted Service Contract (SC72) previously referred to as GSEC101, an offshore gas asset located in the South China Sea.

Exploration activities continued on our MPSA 148 holdings in the Philippines in which we hold a 40% interest. The work program will result in a NI43-101 compliant technical report which we believe will add value to this asset. Further work is however required before this report is finalized and this is expected to be concluded within 2010.

The consolidated accounts show a loss for the year ended December 31, 2009 of $1,202 or $(0.00) per share, versus $4,237 for the previous year.

General and Administration expense were $456 for the year ended December 31, 2009 versus $608 for the same period in 2008. We recorded amortization of $2 for the year versus $2 for the same period in 2008. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $8 versus Nil for the previous year. The difference was because of the interest on the outstanding advance from Philex Mining Corporation. Overall expenses were lower due to reduced general and administrative expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2009. For the year ended December 31, 2009 foreign exchange gain was $2 versus of $55 for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Equity in loss of investments in Lascogon, Metalore, and FEP was $1,046 for the year ended December 31, 2009 versus $1,493 for the same period in the previous year as under the equity method of accounting we are required to report its share of net income or net loss in its statement of operations and reduce or increase our investment by the same amount. The Company’s share of FEP’s loss was a large part of the equity in loss of investments. Gain on dilution in FEP was $307 versus a loss of $239 for the year ended December 31, 2008. Part of the gain on dilution was due to the allocation of part of the foreign exchange translation of FEP from accumulated other comprehensive income.

No shares of FEP were sold to fund operations during the year.

Interest income was $0.2 for the year ended December 31, 2009 versus 15 for the previous year. The difference was a result of the interest earned on the higher cash balance in 2008.

Write down of investments was Nil for the year ended December 31, 2009 versus $1,964 for the year ended December 31, 2008 as in 2008 we wrote down its investment in FEP to fair value on December 31, 2008.

Our current assets were $60 at December 31, 2009 versus $293 for the year ended December 31, 2008. The difference is mainly a result of the higher cash balance on December 31, 2008. Our assets of reflect the value of FEP and Lascogon on an equity basis.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (in ‘000)

Our working capital position at December 31, 2010 was $1,683 versus a working capital deficit of $298 at

December 31, 2009 and shareholders’ equity was $2,202 at December 31, 2010 (December 31, 2009 -

$3,374).

On April 27, 2009 we reached an agreement with Philex Mining whereby our anticipated 2009 operating budget would be covered by way of a loan from Philex Mining. Interest on the loan is at Libor plus 3%. The loan was still outstanding on December 31, 2010.

On January 7, 2010 we raised US$2.5 million through a private placement to Philex Mining. The

private placement was for a total of 5 million shares at US$0.50 per share. The shares were issued on April 26, 2010.

If necessary, we are able to sell our Forum Energy shares to meet our working capital needs.

Cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $492 versus $441 for the same period in 2009 mainly as a result of the differences described in the results of operations above.

Cash used in investing activities was $Nil for the year ended December 31, 2010 versus $1.9 for the

previous year. The difference was not material.

Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $2,577 versus $295 for the previous year.

On January 7, 2010 we received proceeds of US$2.5 million for a private placement of 5,000,000 shares at US$0.50 per share.

Capital Resources

In order to fully earn a 40% interest in the joint venture with PGPI on the Lascogon Project, we were required to fund a total of US$1 million of the work program by October, 2006 which was completed.

To maintain our 40% interest, we are required to pay for 40% of the ongoing work program or our position could be diluted. At December 31, 2010 we would have had to pay US$985 (December 31, 2009 - US$957) and have not contributed any funds to the 2010 work program. In an attempt to conserve cash resources, we are in discussions on ways to continue to hold our interest without being diluted however this matter has not been resolved at this time.

We own 35% of Metalore, 40% of Lascogon and 25.63% of Forum Energy. All but Forum Energy require us to fund our share of any work programs in order to maintain our current equity holdings in each company. If Forum Energy is required to raise additional funds through equity issuances then we would have to purchase our proportionate share of these equity issuances to maintain our current equity position.

Should we be unable to meet our share of the work programs then our holdings would be diluted down accordingly. In 2007, we wrote off our investment in Metalore and in 2010, we wrote off our investment in Lascogon.

We will need to continue to raise funds through either debt, equity or the sale of assets in order to increase our operations until such time as we can find economically produce able reserves.

We don’t anticipate that we will require any additional funds for working capital for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, as we completed a private placement of 5,000,000 shares at $0.50 per share in January 2010 which is sufficient to cover operating costs for the foreseeable future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

We have no employment contracts with any officers, directors, or consultants.

We may still need to raise additional funds if the results of our exploration programs demonstrate that either further exploration or development of the properties we invest in is warranted. No assurance can be given such financing will be available to us when required, or on commercially viable terms. Currently, in order to raise capital, we have undertaken private placements and loans however we may also be forced to sell our shares of FEP. See “ RISK FACTORS .”

The following table provides information, as of the latest fiscal year, with respect to our known contractual obligations, including amounts, aggregated by contractual obligation.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. A summary of significant accounting policies is presented in Note 2 to our Financial Statements. Most accounting policies are mandated under Canadian GAAP, and therefore, do not have the ability to select alternatives. However, in accounting for oil and gas activities, companies have a choice between two acceptable accounting policies: the full-cost and the successful efforts method of accounting.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with Canadian GAAP requires management to make certain judgments and estimates. Changes in these judgments and estimates could have a material impact on our reported financial result and financial condition. The required process of estimating reserves of natural resources is critical to several accounting estimates that appear in our financial disclosures. It requires significant judgments based on available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data. These estimates may change substantially as data from ongoing development and production activities becomes available, and as economic conditions impacting oil and natural gas prices, operating costs, and royalty burdens change. Reserve estimates impact net income through depletion and the application of an impairment test. Revisions or changes in the reserve estimates can have either a positive or negative impact on net income.

Recent Canadian Accounting Related Pronouncements

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In January 2009, the CICA issued Sections 1582 – Business Combinations, 1601 – Consolidated Financial Statements and 1602 – Non-controlling Interests which replaces CICA Sections 1581 – Business Combinations and 1600 – Consolidated Financial Statements. Section 1582 establishes standards for the accounting for business combinations that is equivalent to the business combination accounting standard under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). Section 1582 is applicable for the Company’s business combinations with acquisition dates on or after January 1, 2011. Section 1601 together with Section 1602 establishes standards for the preparation of consolidated financial statements. Section 1601 is applicable for the Company’s interim and annual consolidated financial statements for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2011.

D. Exchange Controls

Investment Canada Act

The Investment Canada Act (the “ICA”) prohibits the acquisition of control of a Canadian business enterprise in Canada by non-Canadians without the prior consent of Investment Canada, the agency that administers the ICA, unless such acquisition is exempt under the provisions of the ICA. Investment Canada must be notified of such exempt acquisitions. The ICA covers acquisitions of control of corporate enterprises, whether by purchase of assets, shares or “voting interests” of an entity that controls, directly or indirectly, another entity carrying on a Canadian business.

Apart from the ICA, there are no other limitations on the right of non-resident or foreign owners to hold or vote securities imposed by Canadian law or our Certificate of Continuance. There are no other decrees or regulations in Canada which restrict the export or import of capital, including foreign exchange controls, or that affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to non-resident holders of our securities except as discussed in “Taxation”, below.

E. Taxation

The following is a summary of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable in respect of our common stock. The tax consequences to any particular holder of common stock will vary according to the status of that holder as an individual, trust, corporation or member of a partnership, the jurisdiction in which that holder is subject to taxation, the place where that holder is resident and, generally, according to that holder's particular circumstances. This summary is applicable only to holders who are resident in the United States; have never been resident in Canada; deal at arm's length with us; hold their common stock as capital property; and who will not use or hold the common stock in carrying on a business in Canada.

This summary does not take into account provincial income tax consequences. This summary assumes that the publicly announced proposals will be enacted as proposed with the effective dates set out therein; otherwise, this summary assumes that there will be no other changes in law whether by judicial or legislative action.

If a non-resident were to dispose of common stock to another Canadian corporation which deals (or is deemed to deal) on a non-arm's length basis with the non-resident, and which, immediately after the disposition, is connected with us (i.e. which holds shares representing more than 10% of the voting power and more than 10% of the market value of all of our issued and outstanding shares), the excess of the proceeds over the paid-up capital of the common stock sold will be deemed to be taxable as a dividend either immediately, or eventually, by means of a deduction in computing the paid-up capital of the purchasing corporation.

Under the Canadian Tax Act , a gain from the sale of common stock by a non-resident will not be subject to Canadian tax, provided the stockholder (and/or persons who do not deal at arm's length with the stockholder) has not held a “substantial interest” in our shares (25% or more of the shares of any class of our equity securities) at any time in the five (5) years preceding the disposition. Generally, the Canadian-United States Tax Convention (the “Tax Convention”) will exempt from Canadian taxation any capital gain realized by a resident of the United States, provided that the value of the common stock is not derived principally from real property situated in Canada.

In the case of any dividends paid to non-residents of Canada, the Canadian tax is withheld by us, which remits only the net amount to the stockholder. By virtue of Article X of the Tax Convention, the rate of tax on dividends paid to residents of the United States is generally limited to 15% of the gross dividend (or 10% in the case of certain corporate stockholders owning at least 10% of our voting shares). In the absence of the treaty provisions, the rate of Canadian withholding tax imposed on non-residents is 25% of the gross dividend. Stock dividends received by non-residents of Canada from us are taxable by Canada as ordinary dividends.

This summary is of a general nature only and is not exhaustive of all possible income tax consequences. It is not intended as legal or tax advice to any particular holder of common stock, and should not be so construed. Each holder should consult his/her own tax advisor with respect to the income tax consequences applicable to him/her in his/her own particular circumstances.

ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Currency Exchange Rate Sensitivity

The results of our operations are subject to currency translational risk, and currency transactional risk. Regarding currency translational risk, the operating results and financial position of our subsidiaries are reported in local currencies and then translated into Canadian dollars at the applicable exchange rate for preparation of our consolidated financial statements. The fluctuation of the U.S. dollar and Peso in relation to Canadian dollar will therefore have an impact upon profitability of our operations and may also affect the value of our assets and the amount of shareholders’ equity.

In regards to transactional risk, our functional currency is the Canadian dollar and our activities are predominantly executed using both the U.S. and Canadian dollars. We have done a limited number of financings, and we are not subject to significant operational exposures due to fluctuations in these currencies. Our common shares are listed on the OTC.BB and are bought and sold in US dollars. We have not entered into any agreements, or purchased any instruments, to hedge any possible currency risks at this time.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

We currently have no significant short-term or long-term debt requiring interest payments. This does not require us to consider entering into any agreements or purchasing any instruments to hedge against possible interest rate risks at this time. Our interest-earning investments are short-term. Thus, any reductions in future income or carrying values due to future interest rate declines are believed to be immaterial.

Commodity Price Sensitivity

Our future revenue and profitability will be dependant, to a significant extent, upon prevailing spot market prices for gold, oil and gas. In the past, gold, oil and gas prices have been volatile. Prices are subject to wide fluctuations in response to changes in supply of, and demand for, gold, oil and gas, market uncertainty, and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control. We currently have no significant operating revenue.

ITEM 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Board has overall responsibility for reviewing our disclosure to ensure we provide full and plain disclosure to shareholders and other stakeholders. The Board discharges its responsibilities through its committees, specifically with respect to financial disclosure. The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing our financial reporting procedures and internal controls to ensure full and accurate disclosure of our financial position.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for designing internal controls over financial reporting or causing them to be designed under their supervision in order to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US GAAP. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report (the "Evaluation Date") are not effective as discussed below.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

As of December 31, 2010, management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls over financial reporting were not effective and that there were material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. The material weaknesses were an inability to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules, as more fully described below, as the result of deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting.

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that the Company’s management considered to be material weaknesses under COSO and SEC rules were: (1) lack of a majority of independent directors on the Company’s board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) limited number of staff, not allowing for complete segregation of incompatible duties.; and (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer in connection with the preparation of our financial statements as of December 31, 2010 and communicated the matters to our management and board of directors.

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2) and (3) above did not have an affect on the Company’s financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a majority of independent directors on the Company’s board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, could impact the Company’s financial statements for the future years.

These weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting result in a remote likelihood that a material misstatement would not be prevented or detected. Management and the board of directors work to mitigate the risk of a material misstatement in financial reporting; however, there can be no assurance that this risk can be reduced to less than a remote likelihood of a material misstatement.

Management believes that the appointment of one or more independent directors, will remedy the lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company’s Board and has recently appointed an additional two directors. In addition, management believes that preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements. Further, management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge will result in proper segregation of duties..

Any effort to increase the size of the Board of Directors, appoint independent directors or personnel is conditional upon the Company to raise additional capital.

We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only the management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over financial reporting

During the year ended December 31, 2010, and subsequently there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting or that would require corrective action.

ITEM 16 . (RESERVED)

ITEM 16A. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT

The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing our financial reporting procedures, internal controls, the performance of our auditors, and the reserve evaluations prepared by our independent reserves evaluation engineering consultants. The Audit Committee is also responsible for reviewing all disclosure with respect to financial matters prior to filing or release and quarterly and annual Financial Statements prior to their approval by the full Board. Members of the Audit Committee during 2010 were Andrew Mullins, Carlo Pablo and Renato Migrino. Until our Annual General Meeting in 2010, only Renato Migrino and Andrew Mullins were members of the Audit Committee. New Audit Committee members will be appointed following our meeting of shareholders in 2011.

Our Board has determined that it has at least one (1) independent financial expert serving on its Audit Committee. This individual is Renato Migrino. Mr. Migrino is the Treasurer, Chief Financial Officer, Vice President Finance, and Compliance Officer for Philex Mining Corporation . Mr. Migrino has significant experience in the review of financial statements and related information.

Mr. Migrino is our Treasurer and therefore would not be regarded as independent.

ITEM 16 B: CODE OF ETHICS.

We have adopted a formal “Code of Ethics” applicable to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. We believe that the Code of Ethics is reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

Full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that a registrant files with, or submits to, regulatory agencies and in other public communications made by the registrant;

Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

The prompt internal reporting of violations of the standards to an appropriate person or persons identified in the standards; and

Accountability for adherence to the standards of the Code of Ethics.

The Code of Ethics (in hard copy) is available for inspection in our headquarters during regular business hours and a copy can also be provided at no charge on request

In addition, we practice corporate governance in accordance with rules and regulations in Canada.

Corporate Governance relates to the activities of the Board who are elected by and accountable to the shareholders, and takes into account the role of management who are appointed by the Board and who are charged with our on-going management. Our Board encourages sound corporate governance practices designed to promote our well being and on-going development, having always as its ultimate objective our best long-term interests and the enhancement of value for all shareholders. The Board also believes that sound corporate governance benefits our employees and the communities in which we operate. The Board believes that our corporate governance policies and practices, outlined below, are appropriate and substantially consistent with the guidelines for improved corporate governance in Canada as adopted by the Toronto Stock Exchange.

To better fulfill and implement the Board’s corporate governance policies, we have established a Corporate Governance Committee. The Corporate Governance Committee meets with and discusses current disclosure issuances with our management personnel, directors, and with both our Canadian and United States counsel, in order to not only report to the Board any matters which should be the subject of either public disclosure or remedial action, but also to assist the Board in establishing reporting and disclosure procedures to ensure that we are in compliance with our disclosure and compliance obligations under applicable laws, rules and obligations. The members of the Corporate Governance Committee are Barry Stansfield, Andrew Mullins and Riaz Sumar

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Shareholders of FEC Resources Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of FEC Resources Inc., which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as at December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 and the consolidated statements of operations and deficit, comprehensive loss and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian auditing standards and standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of FEC Resources Inc. as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010 in accordance with Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

Note 1 Nature of Operations

FEC Resources Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of Alberta, Canada and is engaged primarily in the business of exploration and development of oil and gas and other mineral related opportunities, either directly or indirectly through companies in which the Company invests. The Company is not currently directly involved in any oil and gas or mineral related exploration activities. The exploration and development of oil and gas reserves and the pursuit of other energy and mineral reserves involves significant financial risks. The success of the Company is dependent upon the success of its investments and their ability to discover economically recoverable reserves and to bring such reserves into profitable production, and is subject to a number of risks, including environmental risks, contractual risks, legal risks and political risks, fluctuations in the price of oil and gas and other factors beyond the Company’s control.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”) and except as described in Note 13, conform in all material respects with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates include the potential impairment of asset values, valuation of equity investments, determining the fair value of non-cash share based payments, future income tax asset recoverability and ability to continue as a going concern. While it is the opinion of management that these consolidated financial statements have been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below, actual results could differ from the estimates made.

a)	Basis of Presentation

These financial statements previously included the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, FEC Resources (BVI) Limited and Pacific Geothermal Energy, Inc. (“PACGEO”). During the year ended December 31, 2009, these subsidiaries were dissolved with the result that the Company no longer has any subsidiary companies. All inter-company transactions were eliminated upon consolidation.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies – (cont’d)

b) Investments

Investments in companies subject to significant influence are accounted for using the equity method. The equity method is a basis of accounting whereby the investment is initially recorded at cost and the carrying value is adjusted thereafter to include the Company’s pro-rata share of post-acquisition income or loss. The amount of the adjustment is included in the determination of net income (loss) by the Company and the investment account of the Company is also increased or decreased to reflect the Company’s share of capital transactions and changes in accounting policies and corrections of errors. Profit distributions received or receivable from the investments will reduce the carrying value of the investment. Investments accounted for on the equity basis are written down to their fair value when they have a loss in value that is other than a temporary decline. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recognized a write-down of its investments totalling $2,607,614 (2009 - $ nil: 2008- $1,964,440)

c)	Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less accumulated amortization. The Company depreciates its computer equipment at the rate of 30% per annum utilizing the declining balance method.

d)	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of these assets and their eventual disposition is less than their carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is assessed using discounted cash flows.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies – (cont’d)

e)	Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar. The Company and its investments accounted for by the equity method operate in Canada, the United Kingdom and the Philippines.

Monetary assets and liabilities of the Company’s operations denominated in currencies other than the Canadian dollar are translated into Canadian dollars at the rates of exchange at the consolidated balance sheet dates. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical exchange rates prevailing at each transaction date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates throughout the reporting period, with the exception of depreciation, depletion and amortization which is translated at historical exchange rates. Gains and losses on translation of foreign currencies are included in earnings.

The cumulative translation adjustments included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (‘‘AOCI’’) relate to unrealized translation gains and losses on the Company’s net investment in equity-accounted investees that are translated using the current rate method. The exchange gains and losses will become realized in earnings upon the disposition, liquidation or dilution of the investment that gave rise to such amounts.

f)	Stock-based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock options at fair value pursuant to CICA Handbook Section 3870, which establishes standards for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments. Compensation expense for options granted is determined based on estimated fair values of the options at the time of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

g)	Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, current income taxes are recognized for the estimated income taxes payable for the current period. Future income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the tax and accounting basis of assets and liabilities as well as for the benefit of losses available to be carried forward to future years for tax purposes that are more likely than not to be realized.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies – (cont’d)

h)	Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss for the year by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if potentially dilutive securities were exercised or converted to common stock. The dilutive effect of options and warrants and their equivalent is computed by application of the treasury stock method and the effect of convertible securities by the “if converted” method.

Common equivalent shares (consisting of shares issuable on the exercise of options and warrants) totalling Nil (2009 - 21,053,333; 2008 – 23,053,333) have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because the effect is anti-dilutive. Accordingly, there is no difference in the amounts presented for basic and diluted loss per share.

i)	Financial Instruments

The Company recognizes financial assets and liabilities on the balance sheet when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial instruments are measured at fair value on initial recognition of the instrument, into one of the following five categories: held-for trading, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, available-for-sale financial assets or other financial liabilities.

Subsequent measurement of financial instruments is based on their initial classification. Held-for-trading financial assets are measured at fair value and changes in fair value are recognized in net earnings. Available-for-sale financial instruments are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income until the instrument is derecognized or impaired. The remaining categories of financial instruments are recognized at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

The Company expenses transaction costs related to the acquisition or issuance of held-for-trading financial instruments in the period in which the costs are incurred. The Company capitalizes transaction costs related to the acquisition or issuance of all other categories of financial instruments.

Note 3 Changes in Accounting Policies

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In 2006, AcSB published a new strategic plan that will significantly affect financial reporting requirements for Canadian companies. The AcSB strategic plan outlines the convergence of Canadian GAAP with IFRS over an expected five year transitional period. In February 2008, the AcSB announced that 2011 is the changeover date for publicly accountable companies to use IFRS, replacing Canadian GAAP. The date is for interim and annual financial statements relating to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. The transition date of January 1, 2010 will require the restatement for comparative purposes of amounts reported by the Company for the year ended December 31, 2010. Adoption of IFRS as Canadian GAAP will require the Company to make certain accounting policy choices and could materially impact our reported financial position and results of operations.

Note 5 Investments – (cont’d)

i) Investment in FEP – (cont’d)

As FEP offers its shares to outside investors, the resulting dilution of the investor’s shareholdings constitutes an effective disposition necessitating recognition of a dilution gain or loss. As at December 31, 2010, the Company’s interest in FEP had been diluted to 25.63% (2009: 25.84%, 2008: 28.42%) as a result of the sale of FEP common shares and equity offerings by FEP in which the Company did not participate.

At December 31, 2010, the Company held 8,550,200 (2009 – 8,550,200) common shares of FEP with a market value of $7,737,400 (2009 – $7,646,038) based on the quoted closing price of FEP common stock on the London Stock Exchange. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company recorded a write-down of $1,964,440 as a result of the determination that the decline in market value of the FEP shares was other than temporary.

The financial position and results of operations of FEP as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 are summarized as follows:

	2010	2009

Assets	$50,365,071	$ 52,373,455

Liabilities	$ 6,347,269	$ 5,747,564

Equity	$44,017,802	$ 46,625,891

The Company is related to FEP by virtue of a common parent and 4 common directors.

ii) Investment in Lascogon Mining Corporation (“Lascogon”)

By a memorandum of an agreement dated January 2, 2006 and a settlement and release agreement dated May 11, 2006, the Company agreed to acquire a 40% interest in a mining project (Lascogon Mining Corporation) in the Philippines in partnership with Philex Gold, Inc. (“PGI”).

ii) Investment in Lascogon Mining Corporation (“Lascogon”) – (cont’d)

The project is the Mining and Production Sharing Agreement 148 (“MPSA 148”) between PGI and the Government of Philippines, which comprises 2,306 hectares. The Company agreed to acquire the interest in the project by way of assignment from Indexa Corp. (“Indexa”) to the Company of an Agreement between Indexa and PGI. Indexa is a Philippine Company who had entered into a sole Agreement with PGI for the rights to a joint exploration program. Indexa assigned its rights and obligations in their entirety to the Company, pursuant to which a new Philippine Joint Venture Company was formed, of which the Company would ultimately own 40% and PGI would own 60% equity interests respectively. For this assignment, Indexa was entitled to receive a fee which was to be determined by an independent valuation.

The commitments of the Company in this regard were to provide an initial US$250,000 ($290,900) signature bonus to PGI (paid), pay a fee of US$100,000 ($110,551) (paid) and then for the Company to contribute to the Joint Venture Company a total of US$1,000,000 ($1,105,514) from January 1, 2006 through to October 31, 2006 being estimated as sufficient funding to complete the planned exploration and prospect work program. On October 2, 2006, the Company had met all its funding obligations and fully earned its 40% interest in the Joint Venture Company. Also, as a result of the independent valuation and negotiations, the Company issued 20,000,000 common shares of the Company with a fair value of $891,360 to Indexa and a further 30,000,000 common shares of the Company into escrow, to be awarded to Indexa upon the declaration of commerciality as full and final consideration for the assignment of its rights to the Company. The 30,000,000 shares are considered contingent consideration and will be recorded as additional cost of the investment at fair value once it is likely that they will be issued.

The investment in Lascogon is summarized as follows:

Balance at December 31, 2007	$ 2,635,254
Equity loss in investment in Lascogon	(131,972)
Balance at December 31, 2008	2,503,282

The financial position and results of operations of Lascogon as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 are summarized as follows:

	2010	2009

Assets	$ 4,389,950	$ 3,901,124

Equity	$ 486,820	$ 13,418

Net income for the year ended December 31	$ 150,149	$ 110,680

During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $2,607,614 representing the amount at which the investment was being carried in the Company’s accounts. Such a write-down was determined as a result of Lascogon determining that any further development of MPSA 148 would not provide an acceptable return on the investment. Despite this impairment, the Company has maintained its ownership of its investment in Lascogon and, as at December 31, 2010, in order for the Company to maintain its 40% interest without dilution, the Company would be required to pay cash calls totaling approximately US$984,916.

The Company is related to Lascogon by virtue of a common parent and 2 common directors.

iii) Investment in Metalore Mining Corporation (“Metalore”)

During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company wrote down its investment in Metalore to $Nil by recording a charge against income in the amount of $764,675. As at December 31, 2010, the Company still holds its 35% interest in Metalore Mining Corporation; however, the project has been abandoned.

The Company has incurred expenditures in various other jurisdictions, which are subject to tax authority approval. No provision for taxes in these other jurisdictions has been recorded.

Note 11 Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments comprise primarily of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and a short-term loan. The Company has designated cash and cash equivalents as held-for-trading, which is measured at fair value. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, as well as due to related party are designated as other liabilities, which are measured at amortized cost.

a) Fair value

The carrying values of accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the relatively short periods to maturity of the instruments.

The methods and assumptions used to develop fair value measurements for those financial instruments carried at fair value in the balance sheet have been prioritized into three levels of a fair value hierarchy. Level one includes quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, level two includes inputs that are observable other than quoted prices include in Level one and level three includes inputs that are not based on observable market data. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents is a level one fair value measurement.

b) Foreign currency exchange risk

Concentration of credit risk

The Company maintains cash deposits in one chartered Canadian bank which, from time to time, exceed the amount of depositors insurance available in each respective account. Management assesses the financial condition of this bank and believes that the possibility of any credit loss is minimal.

Note 11 Financial Instruments – (cont’d)

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they fall due. The Company manages liquidity by maintaining cash balances available to meet its anticipated operational needs. Liquidity requirements are managed based on expected cash flow to ensure that there is adequate capital to meet short-term and long-term obligations. The Company has in place a planning and budgeting process to help determine the funds required to support the Company’s normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis and its growth plans. At December 31, 2010 the Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities were $96,990, all of which fall due for payment within twelve months of the balance sheet date. In addition, the Company’s short term loans were $289,750, which are due on demand. The Company has minimal long-term commitments

e)	Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair values and future cash flows of the Company will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its cash and cash equivalents. The Company did not have any borrowings outstanding as at December 31, 2010 except the loan from its parent company. The loan from the parent company has terms that include interest at LIBOR plus 3% thus exposing the Company to a potential cash flow interest rate risk due to this borrowing having a variable interest rate.

Note 12

Capital Management

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, to provide an adequate return to shareholders, to meet external capital requirements on credit facilities and to support any growth plans.

The capital of the Company consists of the items included in shareholders’ equity and cash net of debt obligations. The Company monitors capital based on the debt to debt-plus-equity ratio. Debt is total debt shown on the balance sheet, less cash. Debt-plus-equity is calculated as debt shown on the balance sheet, plus total shareholders’ equity which includes share capital, warrants, contributed surplus and deficit. Currently the Company has no debt except for a short-term loan due to its parent company. The Company’s Board of Directors approves management’s annual capital expenditures plans and reviews and approves any material debt borrowing plans proposed by the Company’s management.

Weighted average shares outstanding	437,554,724	434,143,765	434,143,765

Resource Property Costs

Under Canadian GAAP, the costs of acquiring mineral properties and related exploration and development expenditures are deferred. Under US GAAP, resource property costs related to exploration can only be deferred subsequent to the establishment of reserves. The financial statements of Lascogon Mining Corporation (“Lascogon”) reflect deferred exploration costs at December 31, 2010 of $3,681,202 (2009: $3,642,627). For purposes of US GAAP, the Company’s equity share of the income or loss in its investment in Lascogon is adjusted for its share of the expensing of exploration costs prior to the establishment of reserves under US GAAP. For the year ended December 31, 2010, this amounted to $5,187 (2009 - $98,615; 2008 - $736,995).

Resource Property Costs – (cont’d)

For purposes of Canadian GAAP, during the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $2,607,614 representing an amount which it is being carried on the Company’s books as a result of determining that any further development of MPSA 148 would not provide an acceptable return on the investment. For purposes of US GAAP, the resulting impairment charge for the year ended December 31, 2010 totalled $1,373,627 after taking into effect the balances previously expensed in respect of mineral exploration costs.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

In April 2009, the FASB issued guidance within ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations.” ASC Topic 805 amends the initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. This guidance is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements . The new standard changes the requirements for establishing separate units of accounting in a multiple element arrangement and requires the allocation of arrangement consideration to each deliverable based on the relative selling price. The selling price for each deliverable is based on vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) if available, third-party evidence if VSOE is not available, or estimated selling price if neither VSOE or third-party evidence is available. ASU 2009-13 is effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company does not expect that the provisions of the new guidance will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements – (cont’d)

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted – (cont’d)

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements , which requires additional disclosures about the amounts of and reasons for significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. This standard also clarifies existing disclosure requirements related to the level of disaggregation of fair value measurements for each class of assets and liabilities and disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and non-recurring Level 2 and Level 3 measurements. Since this new accounting standard only required additional disclosure, the adoption of the standard in the first quarter of 2010 did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Additionally, effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010, this standard will require additional disclosure and require an entity to present disaggregated information about activity in Level 3 fair value measurements on a gross basis, rather than one net amount.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors

Forum Energy Plc

Chertsey, United Kingdom

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of Forum Energy Plc as of 31 December 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended 31 December 2010. 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 audits.

We conducted our audits 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 audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit 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 audits provide 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 Forum Energy Plc at 31 December 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended 31 December 2010, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2010 AND 2009

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparation

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. The policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The Group financial statements have been prepared and approved by the Directors in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards IFRSs and IFRIC interpretations, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) (‘IFRSs’).

Changes in accounting policies

(i) New and amended standards adopted by the Group

The following new standards and amendments to standards are mandatory for the first time for the Group for financial year beginning 1 January 2010.

Standard	Date of adoption	Impact on initial application
IAS 27 - Amendment - Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements	1 July 2009	The amendment affects the acquisition of subsidiaries achieved in stages and disposals of interests. Amendment does not require the restatement of previous transactions. During the year, there have been no transactions whereby an interest in an entity is retained after the loss of control of that entity; there have been no transactions with non-controlling interests.
IFRS 3 - Revised - Business Combinations	1 July 2009	The revision to IFRS 3 introduced a number of changes in accounting for acquisition costs and recognition of intangible assets in business combinations. The revised standard does not require the restatement of previous business combinations. During the year, there have been no transactions whereby an interest in an entity is retained after the loss of control of that entity; there have been no transactions with non-controlling interests.
IAS 39 – Amendment - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement: Eligible Hedged Items	1 July 2009	The amendment clarifies the principles for determining eligibility of hedged items. The amendment did not have any impact on the current or prior years’ financial statements. Future transactions will be accounted for consistently with this amendment.
IFRS 2 - Amendment - Group Cash-settled Share-based Payment Transactions	1 January 2010	The amendments clarifies that where a parent (or another group entity) has an obligation to make a cash-settled share-based payment to another group entity’s employees or suppliers, the entity receiving the goods or services should account for the transaction as equity –settled. The amendment did not have any impact on the current or prior years’ financial statements. Future transactions will be accounted for consistently with this amendment.
‘Additional exemptions for first-time adopters’ (Amendment to IFRS 1)	1 January 2010	This is not relevant to the Group as it is an existing IFRS preparer.
Improvements to IFRSs (2009)	Generally 1 January 2010	The improvements in this Amendment clarify the requirements of IFRSs and eliminate inconsistencies within and between Standards. The improvements did not have any impact on the current or prior years’ financial statements.
IFRIC 17 - Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners	1 January 2010	The interpretation provides guidance on how to measure distribution of assets other than cash. The application of this interpretation did not have any impact on the current or prior year’s financial statements. Future transactions will be accounted for consistently with this interpretation.
IFRIC 18 - Transfer of Assets from Customers	1 January 2010	The interpretation clarifies the treatment of agreements in which an entity receives from a customer an item of property that it must use to provide the customer with an on-going access to goods or services. The application of this interpretation did not have any impact on the current or prior year’s financial statements. Future transactions will be accounted for consistently with this interpretation.
IFRIC 9/ IAS 39 - Amendment - Embedded Derivative	1 January 2010	The amendment clarifies the treatment of embedded derivatives in host contracts that are classified out of fair value through profit or loss. The application of this interpretation did not have any impact on the current or prior year’s financial statements. Future transactions will be accounted for consistently with this interpretation.
IFRIC 16 - Hedges of a Net Investment in a Foreign Operation	1 January 2010	The interpretation provides guidance for application of hedge accounting in foreign operations. The application of this interpretation did not have any impact on the current or prior year’s financial statements. Future transactions will be accounted for consistently with this interpretation.

No other IFRSs issued and adopted but not yet effective are expected to have an impact on the Group’s financial statements.

(ii) Standards, amendments and interpretations, which are effective for reporting periods beginning after the date of these financial statements which have not been adopted early:

Standard	Description	Effective date
· IAS 32	Amendment - Classification of Right Issues	1 Feb 2010
· IFRIC 19	Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments	1 Jul 2010
· IFRS 1	Amendment - First Time Adoption of IFRS	1 Jul 2010
· IAS 24	Revised - Related Party Disclosures	1 Jan 2011
· IFRIC 14	Amendment - IAS 19 Limit on a defined benefit asset	1 Jan 2011
· IFRS 7 *	Amendment - Transfer of financial assets	1 Jul 2011
· IFRS 1 *	Severe Hyperinflation and Removal of Fixed Dates for First-time Adopters	1 Jul 2011
	Improvements to IFRSs (2010) *	1 Jan 2011
· IAS 12 *	Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets	1 Jan 2012
· IFRS 9 *	Financial instruments	1 Jan 2013

The Group has not yet assessed the impact of IFRS 9. Except for the amended disclosure requirements of IAS 24 (the above revised standards), amendments and interpretations are not expected to materially affect the Group’s reporting or reported numbers.

*Not yet endorsed by European Union.

Going concern

On 15 February 2010, the Group was awarded the Service Contract over the GSEC101 licence area. The terms of this licence includes a minimum spend commitment of US$3 million which must be satisfied within a period of 18 months of award of the service contract. The Group will be able to meet the requirements of this commitment through the US$10 million facility agreement entered into between the Group and Philex Mining Corporation on 24 November 2010. Subsequent minimum spend commitments for the SC72 licence area amount to US$6 million which must be met by 30 June 2013.

On this basis and after making enquiries, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group as a whole have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) as if they formed a single entity. Inter-company transactions and balances between Group companies are therefore eliminated in full.

Business combinations

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. In the consolidated balance sheet, the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date.

The results of acquired operations are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the date on which control is obtained.

Joint ventures

The Group enters into arrangements with third parties for the joint exploration, development and production activities under contractual arrangement.

It classifies these arrangements as jointly controlled operations for the purposes of IAS 31. Accordingly, the Group only accounts for its share of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, classified in the appropriate Statement of Financial Position and Statement of Comprehensive Income headings.

The Galoc, Nido and Matinloc fields are accounted for by the Group using proportionate consolidation which brings into account the Group's share of assets, liabilities, revenue and operating costs related to their fields..

Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets are classified as held for sale when:

•	they are available for immediate sale;

•	management is committed to a plan to sell;

•	it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn;

•	an active programme to locate a buyer has been initiated;

•	the asset is being marketed at a reasonable price in relation to its fair value; and

•	a sale is expected to complete within 12 months from date of classification.

Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of:

•	their carrying amount immediately prior to being classified as held for sale in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy; and

•	fair value less costs to sell.

Following their classification as held for sale, non-current assets are not depreciated.

The results of operations during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income up to the date of disposal.

Discontinued operations are presented in the statement of comprehensive income (including the comparative period) as a single line which comprises

the post tax loss of the discontinued operation. Operations are classified as discontinued when the decision is made to dispose of the operation by the directors and the operations are actively marketed.

Associates

When the Group has the power to participate in (but not control) the financial and operating policy decisions of another entity, it is classified as an associate. Associates are initially recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost. The Group’s share of post-acquisition profit and losses is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, except that the losses in excess of the Group’s investment in the associate are not recognised unless there is an obligation to make good those losses.

Profits and losses arising on transactions between the Group and its associates are recognised only to the extent of unrelated investors’ interests in the associate. The investor’s share in the associate’s profit and losses resulting from these transactions is eliminated against the carrying value of the associate.

Foreign currency

The functional currency of the parent company and its subsidiaries is the US$. Transactions entered into by Group entities in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity are recorded at the rates ruling when the transactions occur. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates ruling at the statement of financial position date. Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of unsettled monetary assets and liabilities are similarly recognised immediately in the statement of comprehensive income.

Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are de-recognised when the contractual right to the cash flow expires or when substantially all the risk and rewards of ownership are transferred. Financial liabilities are de-recognised when the obligations specified in the contract are either discharged or cancelled.

Revenue

Revenue is derived from sales of oil to third party customers. Sales of oil are recognised at the time of delivery of the product to the purchaser. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received, excluding discounts, rebates and other sales tax or duty.

Financial assets

The Group classifies its financial assets into one of the following categories, depending on the purpose for which the asset was acquired. The Group’s accounting policy for each category is as follows:

Trade and other receivables and other financial assets – These assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise principally through the provision of goods and services to customers, but also incorporate other types of contractual monetary asset such as advances made to affiliated entities. They are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. If the need for impairment of a receivable arises, the value of the provision, representing the expected loss from not being able to recover such receivables, is recognised as a cost of sale.

Cash and cash equivalents – Cash comprises bank and cash deposits at variable interest rates. Any interest earned is accrued monthly and classified as interest income. Cash equivalents comprise short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date acquired, that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purposes of IAS 39 these amounts are classified as loans and receivables where appropriate.

Financial liabilities

Trade payables and other short-term monetary liabilities – These are initially measured at fair value and subsequently recognised at amortised cost using effective interest rate method.

Investments

Investments in quoted companies are carried at market value with any gains or losses recognised in other comprehensive income.

Share-based payments

Where share options are awarded to employees, the fair value of the options at the date of grant is charged to the statement of comprehensive income over the vesting period.

Non-market vesting conditions are taken into account by adjusting the number of equity instruments expected to vest at each balance sheet date so that, ultimately, the cumulative amount recognised over the vesting period is based on the number of options that eventually vest. Market vesting conditions are factored into the fair value of the options granted. As long as all other vesting conditions are satisfied, a charge is made irrespective of whether the market vesting conditions are satisfied. The cumulative expense is not adjusted for failure to achieve a market vesting condition.

Where the terms and conditions of options are modified before they vest, the increase in the fair value of the options, measured immediately before and after the modification, is also charged to the statement of comprehensive income over the remaining vesting period.

Where equity instruments are granted to persons other than employees, the statement of comprehensive income is charged with the fair value of goods and services received.

Tax

Income tax on the profit or loss from ordinary activities includes current and deferred tax.

Current tax is based on the profit or loss from ordinary activities adjusted for items that are non-assessable or disallowed and is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date. Income tax is charged or credited to profit or loss, except when the tax relates to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the tax is also dealt with in equity.

Deferred taxation

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised where the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the statement of financial position differs from its tax base, except for differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill for which amortisation is not tax deductible, the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting or taxable profit and on investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities where the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the difference and it is probable that the difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Recognition of deferred tax assets is restricted to those instances where it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the difference can be utilised. The amount of the asset or liability is determined using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date and are expected to apply when the deferred tax liabilities/(assets) are settled/(recovered). Deferred tax balances are not discounted.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority on either the same taxable Group company or different Group entities, which intend either to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or recovered.

Unevaluated oil and gas properties

The Group applies the full cost method of accounting, having regard to the requirements of IFRS 6 ‘Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources’. Under the full cost method of accounting, all costs associated with exploration for and evaluation of mining and oil and gas properties are capitalised in geographical pools pending determination of the feasibility of each project. Such cost pools are based on geographic areas and are not larger than a segment. The Group currently has one pool, the Philippines.

Costs which are capitalised include costs of licence acquisition, technical services and studies, exploration drilling and testing and appropriate technical

and administrative expenses but do not include general overheads or costs incurred prior to having obtained the legal rights to explore an area, which are expensed directly to the statement of comprehensive income as they occur.

When the technical and commercial feasibility of a mining or oil or gas project has been determined, the related expenditures will be transferred to property, plant and equipment as proved properties. Where a licence is relinquished, or a project is abandoned, or is considered to be of no further commercial value to the Group, the related costs will be written off to the statement of comprehensive income.

Unevaluated mining and oil and gas costs are assessed at each period end and where there are indications of impairment. Any amount by which carrying costs exceed recoverable amounts will be written off. The recoverability of unevaluated oil, gas and mining costs is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Group to obtain necessary financing to complete the development of reserves and future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of recoverable reserves.

At the completion of the exploration phase, if technical feasibility is demonstrated and commercial reserves are discovered, then, following the decision

to continue into the development phase, the carrying value of the relevant asset will be reclassified as an oil and gas asset within property, plant and equipment, but only after the carrying value of the asset has been assessed for impairment in accordance with the impairment of property, plant and equipment assets policy. Unevaluated oil and gas properties are not amortised prior to reclassification to the property, plant and equipment phase.

Property, plant and equipment

Depletion and amortisation of proved oil and gas mining properties is provided over the estimated commercial life of each property and computed using the units of production method based on proved reserves as determined annually by management. Depletion, depreciation and amortisation are included within operating expenses within the statement of comprehensive income.

Items of property, plant and equipment are initially recognised at cost. As well as the purchase price, cost includes directly attributable costs and the estimated present value of any future costs of dismantling and removing items. The corresponding liability is recognised within provisions.

Depreciation is provided on all items of property and equipment to write off the carrying value of items over their expected useful economic lives. It is applied at the following rates:

Drilling equipment	–	20% per annum straight line
Transport and motor equipment	–	20% per annum straight line
Furniture, fixtures and fittings	–	20% per annum straight line
Tools and other equipment	–	33% per annum straight line

Impairment of property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are subject to impairment tests whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell), the asset is written down accordingly. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the impairment test is carried out on the asset’s cash-generating unit (i.e. the lowest group of assets in which the asset belongs for which there are separately identifiable cash flows).

Any impairment charge is included in the administrative expenses line item in the statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent they reverse gains previously recognised in the statement of changes in equity.

Inventories

Inventories are initially recognised at cost, and subsequently at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

Weighted average cost is used to determine the cost of ordinarily interchangeable items.

Provision for abandonment costs

Provision for abandonment costs is recognised at the commencement of production. The amount recognised is the present value of the estimated future expenditure determined in accordance with local conditions and requirements. A corresponding tangible fixed asset of an amount equivalent to the provision is also created. This is subsequently depreciated as part of the capital costs of production. Any change in the present value of the estimated expenditure is reflected as an adjustment to the provision and the fixed assets.

Leased assets

Where assets are financed by leasing agreements that do not give rights approximating ownership, these are treated as operating leases. The annual rentals are charged to the statement of comprehensive income on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

Listed investments

Listed investments are held at current market value.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in Note 1, Management has made the following judgements that have

the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:

Recoverability of exploration and evaluation costs – Under the full cost accounting method of accounting for exploration costs, such costs are capitalised as intangible assets and assessed for impairment on a cost pool basis when circumstances suggest that the carrying amount off the costs pool may exceed its recoverable value and, therefore, there is a potential risk of an impairment adjustment. This assessment involves judgement as to; the likely future commerciality of the asset and when such commerciality should be determined: future revenue and costs pertaining to any concession based on proved plus probable, prospective and contingent resources and the discount rate to be applied to such revenues and cost for the purpose of deriving a recoverable value. The Management have reviewed the recoverability of the assets and consider this to be greater than the current net book value. Further information is included in Note 10.

Depreciation – Percentages are applied by the Management to the Group’s net book value of depletable assets based on future levels of production

for producing assets.

Share options – Provisions for share-based payment costs requires the selection of an appropriate valuation model, consideration as to the inputs necessary for the valuation model chosen and the estimation of the number of awards that will ultimately vest, inputs for which arise from judgements relating to the continuing participation of employees (see Note 16).

Fair value of exploration and appraisal assets – The fair value of exploration and appraisal assets is based on internal and third-party reports, further discounted to reflect future risks such as higher interest rates, smaller than expected reserves and variation to other critical assumptions.

Impairment review

While conducting an impairment review of its assets, the Group makes certain judgements in making assumptions about the likelihood of licence conversion, the future prices, reserve levels, and future development and production costs. Changes in the estimates used can result in significant charges to the statement of comprehensive income. This is performed solely for the purposes of considering the carrying value of the Group’s assets.

Legal proceedings and commercial disputes

In accordance with IAS 37 the Group only recognises a provision where there is a present obligation from a past event, a transfer of economic benefit is probable and the amount of cost of the transfer can be estimated reliably. In instances where the criteria are not met, a contingent liability may be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. Realisation of any contingent liabilities not currently recognised or disclosed in the financial statements could have a material effect on the Group’s financial position. Application of this accounting principle requires the Management to make determinations about various factual and legal matters beyond their control. Among the factors considered in making decisions on provisions are the nature of the disputes and litigations, the progress of the cases, the opinions of legal advisers, experience of similar cases and any decision of the Group’s Management as to how it will respond to any such claim or litigation.

2 SEGMENT ANALYSIS

The Group operated in one principle operating segment, ‘the exploration for and production of oil and gas’.

All the Group’s oil and gas revenues are generated in the Philippines and are made to Philippine based customers as shown in the consolidated income statement. Further information on these customers is included within Note 20.

All the Group's non-current assets are located In the Philippines as shown in the consolidated statement of financial position .

At 31 December 2010 the Group had Philippines tax losses US$1,029,000 (2009: US$873,000) which can be carried forward and applied against future profits when they are realised. Philippines’ basic corporation tax rate is 30%.

Philippine tax losses can only be carried forward for a maximum of 3 years, tax losses currently carried forward are as follows:

2008 – US$172,000

2009 – US$573,000

2010 – US$284,000

A deferred tax asset of US$1,673,000 (2009: US$261,000) in respect of the Philippines tax losses carried forward and US$1,480,000 (2009: US$940,800) in respect of the UK tax losses has not been recognised due to the uncertainty that these tax losses will be utilisable against future taxable income.

8 NON-CURRENT ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Share-based payments

On 1 August 2005, the Group implemented a Share Option Plan (the Plan) with three sub-plans (the sub-plan. Under the terms of the Plan the Group can issue up to 16% of the outstanding issued stock of the Group.

At 31 December 2010, the following share options were outstanding issued in respect of the Ordinary Shares:

The weighted average exercise price of share options was US$0.48 at 31 December 2010 and US$0.45 at 31 December 2009. The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding at the end of the year was eight years (2009: nine years).

During the year a total of 272,000 options were exercised.

As at 31 December 2010, there are 2,195,000 options in issue representing 41% of the total permissible options in issue per the terms of the option plan.

All of the 2,195,000 outstanding options are exercisable at a price higher than the current share price.

The weighted average fair value of each option granted during the year was – US$ Nil (2009: US$ Nil).

Fair value of options

Inputss to the valuation model

The fair values of awards granted under the Share Option Plan have been calculated using the Black Scholes pricing model that takes into account factors specific to share incentive plans such as the vesting periods of the Plan, the expected dividend yield on the Group’s shares and expected early exercise of share options.

Grant date	1 Aug 2005	6 Dec 2006	19 Dec 2008

Share price at date of grant	£1.12 (US$2.19)	£0.73 (US$1.39)	£0.25 (US$0.38)
Exercise price	£1.12 (US$2.19)	£0.73 (US$1.39)	£0.31 (US$0.46)

Option life	10 years	5 years	10 years
Dividend yield	-	-	-
Risk-free investment rate	4.5%	5%	4%
Employee turnover	-	-	-

Volatility has been based on the following:

(i) The annualised volatility of the Group’s shares since its flotation on the AIM market.

Based on the assumptions, the fair values of the options granted are estimated to be:

Grant date	1 Aug 2005	6 Dec 2006	19 Dec 2008

Share price at date of grant	£0.35 (US$0.51)	£0.31 (US$0.45)	£0.13 (US$0.20)

Expense arising from share-based payments

Based on the above fair values and prior year awards and the Group’s expectations of employee turnover, the 2010 expense arising from equity-settled share options and share awards made to employees was US$ Nil (2009: U$336,017). There were no other share-based payment transactions.

17 COMMITMENTS

At 31 December 2010, the Group had commitments totalling US$3 million in operational and exploration expenditure, for the first sub phase programme over Service Contract SC72 ("SC72") (31 December 2009: None).

20 FINANCIAL INTSRUMENTS

Significant accounting policies

Details of the significant account policies in respect of financial instruments are disclosed in Note 1 to the financial statements.

Financial risk management

The Board seeks to minimise its exposure to financial risk by reviewing and agreeing policies for managing each financial risk and monitoring them on a regular basis.

No derivatives or hedges were entered into during the year.

The Group is exposed through its operations to the following financial risks:

·	cash flow interest rate risk

·	foreign currency risk

·	liquidity risk

·	credit risk

·	price risk

The policy for each of the above risks is described in more detail below.

The principal instruments used by the Group, from which financial instruments risk arises are as follow:

The fair value of all the Group financial assets and liabilities is approximate to their carrying values.

Cash flow interest rate risk

The Group manage the interest rate risk associated with the Group’s cash assets by ensuring that interest rates are as favourable as possible, through the use of bank treasury deposits, whilst managing the access the Group requires to the funds for working capital purposes.

At the year end the Group had a cash balance of US$2,464,000 (2009: US$4,172,000) which was made up as follows:

	2010 US$'000	2009 US$'000

British Pounds Sterling	867	2,516
US Dollars	1,574	1,646
Philippine Peso	23	10

Included above are amounts of US$863,000 (2009: US$3,739,000) held within variable rate deposit accounts. Interest rates are 0% to 0.1% based on bank interest rates.

The Group received interest for the year as follows:

	2010 US$'000	2009 US$'000

Interest from bank deposits	2	2

The interest rate risk to the Group is minimal as there is no interest bearing debts and interest income on bank deposits is negligible.

Foreign currency risk

The Group has six overseas subsidiaries, two of which operate in the Philippines and whose expenses are mainly denominated in US Dollars. The other overseas subsidiaries transactions are also mainly denominated in US Dollars. Foreign exchange risk is inherent in the Group’s activities and is accepted as such. The Group keeps small balances in Philippine Peso to operate the local payroll and office expenses.

At 31 December 2010 and 2009, the currency exposure of the Group was as follows:

	US Dollar US$'000	UK Sterling US$'000	Philippine Peso US$'000	2009 US$'000

At 31 December 2010
Cash and cash equivalents	1,574	867	23	2,464
Trade and other receivables	861	246	44	1,151
Trade and other payables	(2,007)	(215)	(130)	(2,352)

Net assets/(liabilities)	428	898	(63)	1,263

At 31 December 2009
Cash and cash equivalents	1,646	2,516	10	4,172
Trade and other receivables	496	114	29	639
Trade and other payables	(301)	(394)	(115)	(801)

Net assets/(liabilities)	1,841	2,236	(76)	4,001

The effect of a 10% strengthening of the US Dollar against Sterling at the reporting date on the Sterling denominated balances would, all other

variables held constant, have resulted in a loss, increasing post tax losses by US$89,800 (2009: US$223,600). Conversely the effect of a 10% weakening of the US Dollar against Sterling at the reporting date would, on the same basis, have resulted in a gain decreasing post tax losses by US$89,800 (2009: US$223,600).

The effect of a 10% strengthening of the US Dollar against the Philippine Peso at the reporting date on the Philippine Peso denominated balances would, all other variables held constant, have resulted in a gain decreasing post tax losses by US$6,300 (2009: US$7,600). Conversely the effect of a 10% weakening of the US Dollar against Philippine Peso at the reporting date would, on the same basis, have resulted in a loss increasing post tax losses by US$6,300 (2009: US$7,600).

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the Group’s management of working capital.

The Group’s policy is to ensure that it will always have sufficient cash to allow it to meet its liabilities when they become due to achieve this the Group has arranged a US$10 million facility (note 21)

It seeks to maintain readily available cash balances to meet expected requirements, all bank balances are currently held on an instant access basis.

The liquidity risk of each Group entity is managed centrally by the Group treasury function. The investment budgets and work plans are set locally

and agreed by the Board annually in advance, enabling the Group’s cash requirements to be anticipated.

The contractual undiscounted amounts of financial liabilities are repayable as follows:

	2010 US$'000	2009 US$'000

1 month	1,162	430
2-3 months	1,072	-
4-6 months	-	118
6-12 months	118	262

	2,352	810

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or a counter party of a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.

The Group is mainly exposed to credit risk from credit sales.

The Group currently has only two customers which are both Philippine based oil Companies, costs of production are deducted prior to payment of the Groups share, therefore any losses would be limited to the net share of revenues. The two customers which account for 100% of the Group’s revenues are Galoc Production Company and The Philodrill Corporation.

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks and financial institutions. The majority of the Group's deposits are held with two different International banks in the UK and in the Philippines, The Group’s deposits are held with international bank in which the UK government holds a majority shareholding; which the Board considers gives a high level of security.

Maximum exposure to credit risk

The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk by class of financial instrument is shown in the table below:

	2010 Carrying value US$'000	2010 Maximum exposure US$'00	2009 Carrying value US$'000	2009 Maximum exposure US$'000

Cash and cash equivalents	2,464	2,464	4,172	4,172
Trade and other receivables	1,151	1,012	639	639


	3,615	3,476	4,811	4,811

Price risk

The Group’s oil and gas sale revenue is subject to energy market price risk. The Group does not intend to hedge the oil price risk in the short-term.

Capital

The overall objective of the Directors is to maximise shareholder returns and minimise risks by keeping a reasonable balance between debt and equity.

The Group considers the capital employed by the Group to be the entire equity attributable to shareholders of the parent.

On a regular basis, the Board of Directors receive financial and operational performance reports that enable continuous management of assets, liabilities and liquidity.

To date the Group has minimised risk by being purely equity financed, or by agreeing partnerships for the development of its portfolio of hydrocarbon assets, in 2011 the Group will draw down on its $10 million of debt (Note 21) to redress the reasonable balance between debt and equity.

21 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During the year the following related party transactions occurred within the Group:

Philex Mining Corporation are the majority shareholder and ultimate controlling party of the Group. The Group performed consultancy services for Philex Petroleum Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Philex Mining Corporation, and received total fees of US$ Nil in year (2009: 194,500).

Forum Philippines Holdings Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary within the Group, entered into a US$10m Facility Agreement (Òthe FacilityÓ) with Philex Mining Corporation on 24 November 2010.

The Facility will be available for a 3 year period from the 24 November 2010 and funds can be borrowed at an interest rate of US LIBOR + 4.5%. The principle use of the facility was to enable the Group to fund its 70% share of a first sub-phase work programme over Service Contract 72 (ÒSC72Ó). Obligations arising from funds drawn under this Facility are not convertible into the Group’s or Forum Philippines’ ordinary shares.

Amounts due to Philex Mining Corporation in respect of this facility agreement as at 31 December 2010 amounted to US$ Nil. Arrangement fees paid to Philex Mining Corporation during the year for the facility were US$200,000.

The first drawdown of the facility is expected to occur in March 2011 in the amount of US$1,000,000.

22 CONTINFENT LIABILITIES

The Group has potential additional consideration of up to US$ 9.03 million (2009: US$10.84 million) payable on the acquisition of Basic Petroleum & Minerals Inc. During 2010 US$1,797,000 was paid and an additional $1,176,000 has been provided for based on latest field production estimates for the Galoc oil field. This amount is disclosed within current liabilities. Payments of the remaining US$7.87 million are dependent upon future field production levels from the acquired oil and gas assets. The Directors consider that the maximum of any potential payments will not materialise, due to acquired field development plans.

Subsequent to the year end the Group agreed a settlement with Basic Energy Corporation ("BEC") in relation to disputes over historical cost recovery arising from Service Contract 14 A and B (Nido-Matinloc Blocks), Service Contract 14 C (Galoc Block), and other blocks of Service Contract 14 and Service Contract 6.

If the terms and conditions of the Agreement are met and approvals are forthcoming from the Department of Energy and other interested parties, Forum Energy will make a cash payment to BEC of US$650,000, and cause the conveyance of (i) 50% of Forum Energy Philippines Corporation's (a wholly owned subsidiary of FEP) ("FEPC") participating interests in the foregoing service contracts, and (ii) 50% of the related recoverable costs, subject to the approval of the Department of Energy

If the terms and conditions of the Agreement are met and approvals are forthcoming from the Department of Energy and other interested parties, the Company will no longer be liable to pay potential additional consideration of up to US$ 9.03 million on the acquisition of FEPC (formerly Basic Petroleum & Minerals Inc).

LASCOGON MINING CORPORATION

(A Subsidiary of Philex Gold Philippines, Inc.)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.	Corporate Information, Status of Operations and

Authorization for Issue of the Financial Statements

Corporate Information

Lascogon Mining Corporation (the Company), a subsidiary of Philex Gold Philippines, Inc. (PGPI), was incorporated in the Philippines on October 20, 2005 to engage in exploration, development and utilization of mineral resources. Its registered office address is Philex Building, 27 Brixton corner Fairlane Streets, Pasig City. The Company’s ultimate parent is Philex Mining Corporation (PMC). PMC is primarily engaged in large-scale exploration, development and utilization of mineral resources.

The Company was incorporated pursuant to a Heads of Agreement (HOA 1) entered into by PGPI and Transpacific Mining Limited (TML) on September 16, 2005. HOA 1 is intended to have a joint participation of both PGPI and TML in the exploration, development and commercial production of recoverable minerals with Mineral Production Sharing Agreement No. 148-99-XIII (MPSA 148) encompassing 2,306 hectares of mining property.

On December 8, 2005, PGPI and TML terminated HOA 1. On the same date, PGPI entered into another Heads of Agreement (HOA 2) with Indexa Corp. (IC), and IC, in turn, executed on the same day a Deed of Assignment, assigning its full interest over HOA 2 to FEC Resources, Inc. (FEC). The said Deed of Assignment became effective on January 2, 2006.

Among the relevant provisions of HOA 2 are:

a.	PGPI will incorporate a local subsidiary into which PGPI shall transfer its full interest over MPSA 148, together with the accumulated exploration costs of its interest thereon.

PGPI shall undertake to apply for all approvals from the Bureau of Mines and Geosciences (BMG) to permit PGPI to transfer 40% equity over this subsidiary to FEC. PGPI shall further undertake to obtain same approvals to cover FEC’s or its designate’s or affiliate’s possible increase in its equity in the local company to 60%.

c.	FEC will commit and provide the amount of United States Dollar (US$) 250,000 to PGPI after legal ownership of MPSA 148 has been transferred to the local subsidiary.

FEC will provide US$100,000 each month from January 1, 2006 to October 31, 2006 to fund expenditures on the agreed work program in HOA 2 to further determine and delineate prospective reserves of MPSA 148. Should the permit from the BMG to extend the exploration beyond October 2006 not be obtained by the subsidiary, FEC will be entitled to call the advances and demand full repayment from the local company. Repayment shall be guaranteed by PGPI.

In compliance with the above provisions of HOA 2:

a.	PGPI incorporated the Company on October 20, 2005. On December 13, 2005, PGPI executed a Deed of Assignment, assigning MPSA 148 to the Company, and transferred to the Company all accumulated costs related thereto.

b.	PGPI received from FEC the amount of US$250,000 on December 29, 2005 following the transfer of PGPI’s legal ownership over MPSA 148 to the Company in December 2005.

FEC provided US$100,000 each month from January 1, 2006 to October 31, 2006 to the Company to fund expenditures to further determine and delineate the reserves of MPSA 148. This amount is recorded by the Company as part of the “Advances from related parties” account. On November 30, 2006, PGPI was able to obtain from the BMG a permit to extend the exploration of MPSA 148 until November 2008. On September 30, 2007, FEC earned and got its 40% equity stake in the Company in view of the completion of documentation requirements of the transfer of the shares. At the time of the 40% transfer to FEC, the carrying value of portion of FEC’s advances amounted to 11,260,000 (US$250,000). Upon conversion, this resulted in an excess of 9,593,300 over the par value of the Company’s newly issued shares to FEC and accordingly, was taken up by the Company as an additional paid-in capital.

In November 2008, BMG, again, extended the permit of the Company on the exploration of MPSA 148 until November 2011.

The Company conducts its exploration activities through the contracted services of independent personnel and contractors.

Status of Operations

The Company had been conducting exploration works on its mining property in Taganaan, Surigao del Norte covered by MPSA 148. During the last quarter of 2008, the Company engaged the services of Independent Resource Estimations (IRES), an independent Qualified Person, to conduct evaluation of the property after several drilling and trenching works have been done. The Company conducted additional exploration works in 2009 to support the finalization of the mineral resource estimate. In 2010, no further exploration activities were done while the report from IRES was being reviewed and finalized.

On March 25, 2011, the Company received the report from IRES which disclosed the mineral resource estimates in the explored area of MPSA 148. Using the relevant information contained in the IRES report, the Company conducted a technical study to assess the recoverability and rate of return of the Taganaan Project (Project). The results of the technical study indicated that the financial model did not generate a positive net present value or internal rate of return. Based on the results of the technical study, the Company’s Board of Directors (BOD) decided not to restart further exploration activities until the economic circumstances surrounding the commercial viability of the Project have changed. Accordingly, the Company’s BOD resolved to provide full allowance for write-down on its deferred mine exploration costs amounting to PHP160,751,179 effective as of December 31, 2010.

As a result of the write-down of deferred mine exploration costs, the Company incurred a significant net loss amounting to PHP170,243,275 for the year ended December 31, 2010, and sustained a negative working capital and capital deficiency amounting to PHP168,092,260 and

PHP169,653,235, respectively, as of December 31, 2010.

The foregoing conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

To address the conditions identified above, PMC, through its wholly owned subsidiary, PGPI, would continue to extend financial support to the Company, as deemed needed, to support the Company’s day-to-day operations. Also, the Company intends to continuously assess the commercial viability of MPSA 148 until such time that the economic circumstances would be favorable. Further, the Company still has exploration rights over the MPSA until November 2011 and intends to renew it for the next two years.

Authorization for Issue of the Financial Statements

The financial statements were authorized for issue by the Company’s BOD on July 12, 2011.

2.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Financial Reporting Practices

Basis of Preparation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a historical cost basis and are presented in Philippine Peso (Peso), which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency. All amounts are rounded to the nearest Peso except when otherwise indicated.

Statement of Compliance

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS) and, except as described in Note 16, conform in all material respects with the United States generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP).

On December 3, 2009, the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) adopted the use of Philippine Financial Reporting Standards for Small and Medium-sized Entities (PFRS for SMEs) effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2010. Under the criteria set out by the Philippine SEC, the Company meets the definition of an SME. However, the Company availed of the exemption approved by the Philippine SEC for not applying PFRS for SMEs since it is a subsidiary of PMC, which prepares consolidated financial statements in accordance with PFRS, except for PMC’s mine products inventories that are measured at net realizable value, which was permitted by the Philippine SEC.

Changes in Accounting Policies

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except for the adoption of new and amended accounting standards that became effective beginning January 1, 2010. Adoption of the following changes in Philippine Accounting Standards (PAS), PFRS and Philippine Interpretations, based on International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) interpretations, did not have any significant impact on the Company’s financial statements:

·	PFRS 2, Share-based Payment (Amendment) - Group Cash-settled Share-based Payment Transactions

·	PFRS 3, Business Combinations (Revised)

·	PAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (Amended)

·	PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (Amendment) - Eligible Hedged Items

·	Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 17, Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners

Cash includes cash on hand and in banks.

Financial Instruments

Date of recognition

The Company recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability in the balance sheet when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Purchases and sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace are recognized on the settlement date.

Initial recognition and classification of financial instruments

Financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value. The initial measurement of financial instruments, except for those designated at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), includes transaction cost.

On initial recognition, the Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at FVPL, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity (HTM) investments and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments are acquired and whether they are quoted in an active market. Financial liabilities, on the other hand, are classified into the following categories: financial liabilities at FVPL and other financial liabilities, as appropriate. Management determines the classification of its financial assets and financial liabilities at initial recognition and, where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates such designation at every balance sheet date.

Financial instruments are classified as liability or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. Interest, dividends, gains and losses relating to a financial instrument or a component that is a financial liability are reported as expense or income. Distributions to holders of financial instruments classified as equity are charged directly to equity, net of any related income tax benefits.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities consist of loans and receivables, and other financial liabilities.

Determination of fair value

The fair value of financial instruments that are actively traded in organized financial markets is determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the close of business on the balance sheet date. For investments and all other financial instruments where there is no active market, fair value is determined using generally acceptable valuation techniques. Such techniques include using arm’s length market transactions; reference to the current market value of another instrument, which are substantially the same; discounted cash flow analysis and other valuation models.

Fair value measurements are disclosed by source of inputs using a three-level hierarchy for each class of financial instrument. Fair value measurement under Level 1 is based on quoted prices in

active markets for identical financial assets or financial liabilities; Level 2 is based on inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the financial asset or financial liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 is based on inputs for the financial asset or financial liability that are not based on observable market data.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial measurement, loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any allowance for impairment. Amortized cost is calculated taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and includes transaction costs and fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate and transaction costs. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the loans and receivables are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process. These financial assets are included in current assets if maturity is within 12 months from the balance sheet date. Otherwise, these are classified as noncurrent assets.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company’s loans and receivables include cash and advances to employees.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities are initially recorded at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any issue costs, and any discount or premium on settlement. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the amortization process.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company’s other financial liabilities include accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and advances from related parties.

Offsetting Financial Instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. This is not generally the case with master netting agreements, and the related assets and liabilities are presented gross in the balance sheet.

Impairment of Financial Assets

The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that have occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred “loss event”) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the contracted parties or a group of contracted parties is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization, and where observable data indicate that there is measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

Loans and receivables

The Company first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant and, individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables carried at amortized cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate (i.e., the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition). The carrying amount of the asset shall be reduced either directly or through the use of an allowance account, and the amount of the loss shall be recognized in profit or loss.

If it is determined that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, the asset is included in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and that group of financial assets is collectively assessed for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognized are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed. Any subsequent reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss, to the extent that the carrying value of the asset does not exceed its amortized cost at the reversal date.

Derecognition of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

Financial assets

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized when:

·	the right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired;

·	the Company retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a “pass-through” arrangement; or

·	the Company has transferred its right to receive cash flows from the asset and either (a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

When the Company has transferred its right to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a “pass-through” agreement and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognized to the extent of the Company’s continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Company could be required to repay.

Where continuing involvement takes the form of a written and/or purchased option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on the transferred asset, the extent of the Company’s continuing involvement is the amount of the transferred asset that the Company may repurchase, except that in the case of a written put option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on asset measured at fair value, the extent of the Company’s continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise price.

Financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or has expired.

Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in profit or loss.

Input Tax

Input tax represents the value-added tax (VAT) due or paid, as required by the Philippine taxation laws and regulations, on purchases of vatable goods and services. The Company can claim the input VAT against any future output VAT payable. In addition, the Company can also recover it through tax credit against future income tax liability, upon approval of the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) and/or Philippine Bureau of Customs.

A valuation allowance is provided for any portion of the input tax that cannot be claimed against output tax or recovered as tax credit against future income tax liability.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment in value, if any.

The initial cost of property and equipment comprises of its purchase price, including import duties, taxes, borrowing costs and any directly attributable costs in bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Expenditures incurred after the property and equipment have been put into operation such as repairs and maintenance and overhaul costs, are normally charged to income in the period in which the costs are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditures have resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of an item of property and equipment beyond its originally assessed standard of performance, the expenditures are capitalized as an additional cost of property and equipment.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

	No. of Years
Transportation equipment	5
Office equipment	3
Exploration equipment	3
Communication equipment	3

Depreciation of property and equipment used in exploration activity is capitalized to deferred mine exploration costs.

Depreciation of an item of property and equipment begins when it becomes available for use,

i.e., when it is in the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Depreciation ceases at the earlier of the date that the item is classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale) in accordance with PFRS 5 and the date the asset is derecognized.

The estimated useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed periodically to ensure that the periods and method of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of property and equipment.

When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, their cost and related accumulated depreciation and any allowance for impairment losses are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss.

Computer Software

Computer software is stated at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment in value, if any. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of three years.

The estimated useful lives and amortization method are reviewed periodically to ensure that the period and method of amortization are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of computer software. When computer software are retired or otherwise disposed of, their cost and related accumulated amortization and allowance for impairment losses are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss.

Deferred Mine Exploration Costs

Expenditures for exploration works on mining properties (i.e., acquisition of rights to explore, topographical, geological, geochemical and geophysical studies, exploratory drilling, trenching, sampling, and activities in relation to evaluating the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource) are deferred as incurred and included under “Deferred mine exploration costs” account in the balance sheet. If and when recoverable reserves are determined to be present in commercially producible quantities, the deferred exploration expenditures and subsequent mine development costs are capitalized as part of property and equipment.

A valuation allowance is provided for unrecoverable deferred mine exploration costs based on the Company’s assessment of the future prospects of the exploration project. Full provision is made for the impairment unless it is probable that such costs are expected to be recouped through successful exploration and development of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale. If the project does not prove to be viable or is abandoned, the deferred mine exploration costs associated with the project and the related impairment provisions are written off. Exploration areas are considered permanently abandoned if the related permits of the exploration have expired and/or there are no plans for further exploration and/or development.

Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective assets. The capitalization of borrowing costs:

(i) commences when the activities to prepare the assets are in progress and expenditures and borrowing costs are being incurred; (ii) is suspended during the extended periods in which active development, improvement and construction of the assets are interrupted; and (iii) ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the assets are completed.

100

Where funds are borrowed specifically to finance a project, the amount capitalized represents actual borrowing costs incurred less any investment income on the temporary investment of the borrowed funds. Where the funds used to finance a project form part of general borrowings, the amount capitalized is determined by applying the capitalization rate to the expenditures on the asset. The amount of capitalized borrowing cost, though, cannot exceed the actual borrowing cost incurred during the period.

Other borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

Impairment of Noncurrent Non-financial Assets

The Company’s noncurrent non-financial assets include property and equipment, and computer software. The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is an indication that a noncurrent non-financial asset or cash generating unit (CGU) may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when an annual impairment testing for such items is required, the Company makes an estimate of their recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or CGU’s fair value less costs to sell or its value-in-use, and is determined for an individual item, unless such item does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or group of assets or CGUs.

When the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, such item is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value-in-use, the estimated future cash flows to be generated by such items are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. Impairment losses of continuing operations are recognized in profit or loss in the expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.

An assessment is made at least on each balance sheet date as to whether there is indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If any indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated and a previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimate in the assets or CGU’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If so, the carrying amount of the item is increased to its new recoverable amount which cannot exceed the impairment loss recognized in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in profit or loss unless the asset or CGU is carried at its revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal, the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount less any residual value on a systematic basis over its remaining estimated useful life.

Related Party Relationships and Transactions

Related party relationship exists when the party has the ability to control, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Such relationships also exist between and/or among entities which are under common control with the reporting entity and its key management personnel, directors or stockholders. In considering each possible related party relationship, attention is directed to the substance of the relationships, and not merely to the legal form.

Capital Stock

The proceeds from the issuance of capital stock are presented in equity to the extent of the par value of the issued and outstanding shares and any excess of the proceeds over the par value of shares issued, less any incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance, net of tax, is presented in equity as additional paid-in capital.

101

Retained Earnings (Deficit)

Retained earnings represent the cumulative balance of periodic net income or loss, dividend contributions, effect of changes in accounting policy and other capital adjustments. When the retained earnings account has a debit balance, it is called “deficit.” A deficit is not an asset but a deduction from total equity.

Interest Income

Interest income is recognized as the interest accrues taking into account the effective interest yield at the market.

Expenses Recognition

Expenses are recognized in profit or loss in the period they are incurred.

Income Taxes

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

Deferred income tax

Deferred income tax is provided, using the balance sheet liability method, on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carryforward benefits of unused net operating loss carryover (NOLCO) and excess of minimum corporate income tax (MCIT) over the regular corporate income tax (RCIT) [excess MCIT] to the extent that it is probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and carryforward benefits from unused NOLCO and excess MCIT can be utilized.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax assets to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance sheet date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be available against which the deferred income tax amount can be utilized.

Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off the current income tax assets against the current income tax liabilities and the deferred income taxes relate to the same taxable entity and levied by the same taxation authority.

102

Other Comprehensive Income

Other comprehensive income comprises items of income and expense (including items previously presented under the statement of changes in equity) that are not recognized in profit or loss for the year in accordance with PFRS.

Foreign Currency-Denominated Transactions and Translations

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Outstanding monetary assets and monetary liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are restated using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency shall be translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognized in other comprehensive income, any foreign exchange component of that gain or loss shall be recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. Conversely, when a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognized in profit or loss, any exchange component of that gain or loss shall be recognized in profit or loss.

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expense. When the Company expects a provision or loss to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset only when the reimbursement is virtually certain and its amount is estimable. The expense relating to any provision is presented in profit or loss, net of any reimbursement.

Contingencies

Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed in the notes to financial statements unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed in the notes to financial statements when an inflow of economic benefits is probable. Contingent assets are assessed continually to ensure that developments are appropriately reflected in the financial statements. If it has become virtually certain that an inflow of economic benefits will arise, the asset and the related income are recognized in the financial statements.

Events After the Balance Sheet Date

Events after the balance sheet date that provide additional information about the Company’s position at the balance sheet date (adjusting events), if any, are reflected in the financial statements. Events after the balance sheet date that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements when material.

Future Changes in Accounting Policies

The following are the new and revised accounting standards and interpretations that will become effective subsequent to December 31, 2010. Except as otherwise indicated, the Company does not expect the adoption of these new and amended PAS, PFRS and Philippine Interpretations to have significant impact on its financial statements:

103

Effective in 2011

PAS 24, Related Party Disclosures (Amendment) , clarifies the definition of a related party to simplify the identification of such relationships and to eliminate inconsistencies in its application. The revised standard introduces a partial exemption of disclosure requirements for government-related entities.

·	PAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation (Amendment) - Classification of Rights Issue , amends the definition of a financial liability in order to classify rights issues (and certain options or warrants) as equity instruments in cases where such rights are given pro rata to all

of the existing owners of the same class of an entity’s non-derivative equity instruments, or to acquire a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments for a fixed amount in any currency.

Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 14, Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement (Amendment) , an interpretation of PAS 19, Employee Benefits , provides guidance on assessing the recoverable amount of a net pension asset. The amendment permits an entity to treat the prepayment of a minimum funding requirement as an asset.

Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 19, Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments , clarifies that equity instruments issued to a creditor to extinguish a financial liability qualify as consideration paid. The equity instruments issued are measured at their fair value. In case that this cannot be reliably measured, the instruments are measured at the fair value of the liability extinguished. Any gain or loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Improvements to PFRS

·	PFRS 3, Business Combinations (Revised) , clarifies that the amendments to PFRS 7, PAS 32 and PAS 39 that eliminate the exemption for contingent consideration, do not apply to contingent consideration that arose from business combinations whose acquisition dates precede the application of PFRS 3.

·	PFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures (Amendment) , emphasizes the interaction between quantitative and qualitative disclosures and the nature and extent of risks associated with financial instruments which should be applied retrospectively.

·	PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements (Amendment) , clarifies that an entity will present an analysis of other comprehensive income for each component of equity, either in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes to the financial statements.

PAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (Amendment) , clarifies that the consequential amendments from PAS 27 made to PAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates , PAS 28, Investments in Associates , and PAS 31, Interests in Joint Ventures , apply prospectively for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2010 or earlier when

PAS 27 is applied earlier.

Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 13, Customer Loyalty Programmes (Amendment) , clarifies that when the fair value of award credits is measured based on the value of the awards for which they could be redeemed, the amount of discounts or incentives otherwise granted to customers not participating in the award credit scheme, is to be taken into account.

104

Effective in 2012

PFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures (Amendments) - Transfers of Financial Assets , allows users of financial statements to improve their understanding of transfer transactions of financial assets (for example, securitizations), including understanding the possible effects of any risks that may remain with the entity that transferred the assets. The amendments also require additional disclosures if a disproportionate amount of transfer transactions are undertaken around the end of a reporting period.

PAS 12, Income Taxes (Amendment) - Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets , provides a practical solution to the problem of assessing whether recovery of an asset will be through use or sale. It introduces a presumption that recovery of the carrying amount of an asset will, normally, be through sale.

Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 15, Agreements for Construction of Real Estate , covers accounting for revenue and associated expenses by entities that undertake the construction of real estate directly or through subcontractors. This Interpretation requires that revenue on construction of real estate be recognized only upon completion, except when such contract qualifies as construction contract to be accounted for under PAS 11, Construction Contracts , or involves rendering of services in which case revenue is recognized based on stage of completion. Contracts involving provision of services with the construction materials and where the risks and reward of ownership are transferred to the buyer on a continuous basis will also be accounted for based on stage of completion.

Effective in 2013

PFRS 9, Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement , reflects the first phase of the work on the replacement of PAS 39 and applies to classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities as defined in PAS 39. In subsequent phases, hedge accounting and derecognition will be addressed. The completion of this project is expected in 2011. The adoption of the first phase of PFRS 9 will have an effect on the classification and measurement of the Company’s financial assets. The Company will quantify the effect in conjunction with the other phases, when issued, to present a comprehensive picture.

3. Management’s Use of Significant Judgments, Accounting Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with PFRS requires management to exercise judgments, make accounting estimates and use assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and related disclosures. Future events may occur which will cause the assumptions used in arriving at the accounting estimates to change. The effects of any change in accounting estimates are reflected in the financial statements as they become reasonably determinable.

Judgments, accounting estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Judgments

In the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effects on amounts recognized in the financial statements:

105

Recoverability of deferred mine exploration costs and input tax

The Company assesses impairment on its deferred mine exploration costs and input tax whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When the facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company recognized allowance for write-down of deferred mine exploration costs and input tax amounting to PHP160,751,179 and PHP10,032,574, respectively

(see Notes 1, 5 and 8). No allowance for write-down was recognized for the aforementioned assets as of December 31, 2009. The carrying amounts of deferred mine exploration costs and input tax amounted to nil as of December 31, 2010. As of December 31, 2009, deferred mine exploration costs amounted to PHP160,185,904, while input tax amounted to PHP10,082,273

(see Notes 5 and 8).

Accounting Estimates and Assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainties at the balance sheet date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are as follows:

Impairment of loans and receivables

The Company assesses on a regular basis if there is objective evidence of impairment of its loans and receivables. The amount of impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the

asset’s original effective interest rate. The determination of impairment requires the Company to estimate the future cash flows based on certain assumptions as well as to use judgment in selecting an appropriate rate in discounting. The amount of loss is recognized in profit or loss with a corresponding reduction in the carrying value of the loans and receivables through an allowance account. Allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to PHP308,208 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 (see Note 4). The aggregate carrying value of loans and receivables amounted to PHP453,766 and PHP448,896 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (see Note 12).

Impairment of noncurrent non-financial assets

The Company’s noncurrent non-financial assets include property and equipment, and computer software. The Company assesses whether there are indications of impairment on its noncurrent non-financial assets. If there are any indications of impairment, impairment testing is performed. This requires an estimation of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value-in-use (or, if applicable, the value-in-use of the CGUs to which the assets belong). Estimating the value-in-use requires the Company to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the asset or CGU and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. Impairment loss amounting to PHP18,875 of the computer software was recognized in 2010. No impairment loss was recognized in 2009 and 2008. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the carrying value of the Company’s noncurrent non-financial assets amounted to PHP301,789 and

PHP832,820 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (see Notes 6 and 7).

Recognition of deferred income tax assets

The Company determines the amount of deferred income tax assets that can be recognized based on the probable timing and level of future taxable profits that will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax assets to be utilized. In 2010 and 2009, the management has determined that it is not probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be available against which the benefits of the deductible temporary differences, carryforward benefits of unused NOLCO and excess MCIT can be utilized. Such resulted in unrecognized deferred income tax assets amounting to PHP55,222,642 and PHP4,426,324 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (see Note 11).

106

4. Advances to Employees

	2010	2009
Advances to employees	PHP341,351	PHP351,311
Less allowance for doubtful accounts	308,208	308,208
	PHP33,143	PHP43,103

The advances to employees are non-interest-bearing and are currently due and demandable. The impaired advances to employees were specifically identified.

5. Input Tax

The input tax relates to the input VAT which arose primarily from the Company’s exploration activities. The Company’s input tax can be utilized against the Company’s future output tax.

The Company’s management believes that it is probable that the carrying value of input tax would not be realized or recovered as a result of the Company’s decision not to restart further exploration activities (see Note 1). Thus, effective December 31, 2010, the Company recognized an allowance for write-down on its input tax amounting to PHP10,032,574 (see Note 16). No allowance for write-down was recognized by the Company as of December 31, 2009.

8.	Deferred Mine Exploration Costs

The deferred mine exploration costs relate to the expenditures incurred in the exploration activities for the Taganaan Project in Surigao del Norte [covered by MPSA 148 (see Note 1)]. The recovery of these costs depends upon the success of exploration activities and future development of the mining property to produce minerals in commercial quantity.

Due to inability to generate a positive net present value or internal rate of return (see Note 1), the recoverable amount of the deferred mine exploration costs is determined to be nil as of

December 31, 2010. Thus, the Company recognized allowance for write-down of deferred mine exploration costs amounting to 160,751,179 (see Note 16). No allowance for write-down was recognized as of December 31, 2009.

The carrying amount of deferred mine exploration costs amounted to nil as of December 31, 2010 and 160,185,904 as of December 31, 2009.

9. Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities

	2010	2009
Accounts payable	PHP41,222	PHP95,755
Accrued liabilities	164,864	214,864
Withholding taxes payable	33,857	35,657
Others	40,580	40,580
	PHP280,523	PHP386,856

The Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities are non-interest-bearing and are currently due. “Others” consist of SSS, Philhealth and Pag-IBIG fund payables.

10. Related Party Transactions

The Company has significant transactions with related parties involving the funding of exploration activities over MPSA 148. These related parties and corresponding nature of relationship as well as the related transaction balances follow:

108

Related Party	Relationship	2010	2009
PGPI	Parent company	PHP127,687,643	PHP125,733,449
FEC	Stockholder	39,695,563	42,750,695
PMC	Ultimate parent company	885,483	880,626
		PHP168,268,689	PHP169,364,770

PGPI and PMC have been making non-interest-bearing advances to fund the Company’s evaluation and exploration activities over MPSA 148. These advances are due on demand and will be settled through cash payments. PMC is also providing the services of senior management, engineering, geological and head office personnel at no cost to the Company.

FEC made several advances to the Company in compliance with the provisions of the HOA 2 between PGPI and FEC (see Note 1). These advances are non-interest-bearing and are denominated in US Dollar. These advances are due on demand and will be settled through cash payments. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, total outstanding advances from FEC amounted to US$905,465 and US$925,340, respectively, which have been translated to their Peso equivalent amounts of PHP39,695,563 and PHP42,750,695, respectively.

11. Income Taxes

a.	The current provision for income tax in 2010 and 2009 pertains to MCIT. The Company is covered by MCIT starting 2009, which is the Company’s fourth taxable year of operation. No current provision for income tax was recognized in 2008 since the Company had no income subjected to RCIT.

The provision for (benefit from) deferred income tax in 2010, 2009 and 2008 resulted from the tax effect of the movement in the taxable temporary difference arising from unrealized foreign exchange gain on foreign currency-denominated advances from a related party. A provision for income tax from the additional unrealized foreign exchange gain of PHP2,182,183 and

PHP1,221,449 was recognized in 2010 and 2009, respectively; while a benefit from income tax was recognized in 2008 for the reversal of the unrealized foreign exchange gain previously recognized amounting to PHP 5,774,119.

c.	The deferred income tax liability pertains to the tax effect of the cumulative unrealized foreign exchange gain on the foreign currency-denominated advances from a related party of

PHP6,209,213 and PHP4,027,030 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

d.	A reconciliation of the benefit from income tax computed at the statutory income tax rates (30% in 2010 and 2009 and 35% in 2008) based on loss before income tax to the provision for (benefit from) income tax follows:

109

	2010	2009	2008
Benefit from income tax at the statutory income tax rates	PHP(50,876,492)	PHP(550,028)	PHP(5,549,936)

e.	The Company did not recognize deferred income tax assets on the following deductible temporary differences, NOLCO and excess MCIT:

	2010	2009

Excess MCIT	3,932	3,618

f.	As of December 31, 2010, the Company’s NOLCO and excess MCIT that can be claimed as deduction from future taxable income and used as deductions from future RCIT, respectively, are as follows:

Incurred During	Available for
the Year Ended	Deduction Until	NOLCO		Excess

g.	Republic Act (RA) No. 9337 was enacted into law amending various provisions in the existing 1997 National Internal Revenue Code (Tax Code). Among the Reforms introduced by the RA that took effect in 2009 are the following:

change in RCIT rate from 32% to 35% for the next three years effective November 1, 2005 and 30% starting January 1, 2009; and

110

ii.

change in the allowable deduction for interest expense from 38% to 42% effective November 1, 2005 and 33% effective January 1, 2009.

On July 7, 2008, RA No. 9504, which amended the provisions of the 1997 Tax Code, became effective. The RA allowed corporations, except nonresident foreign corporations, to avail of an optional standard deduction (OSD) in the amount not exceeding 40% of their gross income. A corporation must signify its intention to avail of the OSD in its return, otherwise, it shall be considered as having availed of the itemized deductions. The availment of the OSD shall be irrevocable for the taxable year for which return is made.

The BIR issued Revenue Regulation (RR) No. 10-2008 for the implementing guidelines of RA No. 9504 on September 24, 2008 and RR No. 16-08, Dealing on the Optional Standard Deduction Allowed to Individuals and Corporations in Computing Their Taxable Income , for the implementing guidelines of Section 34 (L) of the 1997 Tax Code, as amended by Section 3 of RA No. 9504, on November 26, 2008. The Company opted not to avail of the OSD in 2010, 2009, and 2008.

12. Financial Instruments

The table below shows the carrying values of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities that are carried in the financial statements.

	2010		2009
Financial Assets Loans and receivables:
Cash		PHP420,623		PHP405,793
Advances to employees		33,143		43,103
		PHP453,766		PHP448,896
Financial Liabilities Other financial liabilities:
Accounts payable		PHP41,222		PHP95,755
Accrued liabilities		164,864		214,864
Advances from related parties		168,268,689		169,364,770
		PHP168,474,775		PHP169,675,389

Due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments, the carrying values of financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their fair values as of balance sheet dates.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company has no financial instruments carried at fair value. Thus, no disclosure on source of inputs using a three-level fair value hierarchy is necessary.

13. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, advances to employees, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and advances from related parties. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to provide financing for the Company’s operations. It is the Company’s policy that no trading of financial instruments shall be undertaken.

111

Risk Management Structure

The BOD is mainly responsible for the overall risk management approach and for the approval of risk management strategies and principles of the Company.

Financial Risks

The main risks arising from the Company’s financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and foreign currency risk. The BOD reviews and agrees on policies for managing these risks. While still pre-operating, the Company mainly sources its funds from related parties to meet liquidity problems.

Credit risk

Credit risk is such risk where the Company could incur a loss if its counterparties fail to discharge their contractual obligations. The Company manages credit risk by doing business only with related parties and recognized creditworthy third parties.

With respect to credit risk arising from the financial assets of the Company, which comprise of cash in bank and advances to employees, the Company’s exposure to credit risk could arise from default of the counterparty, having a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.

The table below summarizes the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk.

	2010	2009
Cash in banks	PHP391,623	PHP376,793
Advances to employees	33,143	43,103
	PHP424,766	PHP419,896

High grade credit quality financial assets pertain to financial assets with insignificant risk of default based on historical experience and/or counterparty credit standing. Substandard grade credit quality financial assets pertain to financial assets collected on their due date with persistent collection effort made by the Company. The Company’s cash in banks are of high grade credit quality while its advances to employees are substandard grade.

The Company’s cash in banks are due on demand and the unimpaired advances to employees are all currently due. The Company has impaired past due advances to employees amounting to

PHP308,208 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 which are specifically identified.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is such risk where the Company is unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due under normal and stress circumstances. The Company’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through advances from related parties.

The Company’s other financial liabilities, consisting of accounts payable, accrued liabilities

and advances from related parties, amounted to PHP168,474,775 and PHP169,675,389 as of

December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and are all payable on demand.

Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk arising from its cash and advances from FEC that are denominated in US Dollar. The foreign currency-denominated cash amounted to US$3,163 and US$3,212 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, while foreign currency-denominated advances from FEC amounted to US$905,465 and US$925,340, respectively. The Company recognized foreign exchange gains amounted to PHP 2,190,595 and PHP 1,394,013 in 2010 and 2009, respectively; and foreign exchange loss of

PHP6,507,233 in 2008 arising from the translation of these foreign currency-denominated financial instruments.

112

The exchange rates of the US Dollar to Peso are PHP43.84, PHP46.20 and PHP47.52 as of

December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The following tables summarize the impact of the financial instruments on the loss before income tax of the Company for a reasonably possible change in the exchange rates of US Dollar against the Peso:

December 31, 2010:

Change in Peso-Foreign Exchange rate	Effect on Loss Before Income Tax
Increase by 7%	PHP2,768,984
Decrease by 7%	(2,768,984)

December 31, 2009:

Change in Peso-Foreign Exchange rate	Effect on Loss Before Income Tax
Increase by 1%	PHP426,023
Decrease by 1%	(426,023)

December 31, 2008:

Change in Peso-Foreign Exchange rate	Effect on Loss Before Income Tax
Increase by 1%	PHP395,643
Decrease by 1%	(395,643)

There is no other effect on the Company’s equity other than those affecting profit or loss.

14.	Capital Management

The Company maintains a capital base to cover risks inherent in the business. The primary objective of the Company’s capital management policies is to optimize the use and earnings potential of the Company’s resources, ensuring that the Company complies with externally

imposed capital requirements, if any, and considering changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the Company’s activities. No significant changes have been made in the objectives, policies and processes of the Company from the previous years.

The table below summarizes the total capital considered by the Company:

	2010	2009
Capital stock	PHP4,166,700	PHP4,166,700
Additional paid-in capital	9,593,300	9,593,300
Deficit	(183,413,235)	(13,169,960)
Total	PHP(169,653,235)	PHP590,040

113

15.	Notes to Statements of Cash Flows

The principal noncash investing activities of the Company are as follows:

a.	In 2010, the Company reclassified the balance of the input tax amounting to PHP49,699 to deferred mine exploration costs.

b.	Depreciation and amortization expenses amounting to PHP512,156, PHP582,836 and PHP542,756 in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, were capitalized as part of deferred mine exploration costs (see Notes 6 and 7).

16.	Differences Between PFRS and US GAAP

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with PFRS which differ in certain material respects from US GAAP. The material differences between PFRS and US GAAP that apply to the Company’s financial statements are as follows:

i.	Deferred Mine Exploration Costs

PFRS allows expenditures for exploration works to be deferred until commercial exploitation is probable. The capitalized cost of exploration works is then subjected to impairment test. Under US GAAP, expenditures for exploration works are capitalized if there are already proven or probable reserves supported by final feasibility study. The Company has not yet established the proven or probable reserves on its mining property. Accordingly, the costs of mine exploration are capitalized less allowance for impairment loss under PFRS while such are expensed under US GAAP.

ii.	Deferred Income Tax Assets

Deferred income tax assets, under PFRS, are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carryforward benefits of unused NOLCO and excess MCIT to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, carryforward benefits of unused NOLCO and excess MCIT can be utilized. Under US GAAP, deferred income tax assets are recognized in full and a valuation allowance is recognized separately to the extent it is more likely than not that the deferred income tax assets will not be realized.

The Company’s financial statements are affected by these differences between PFRS and

US GAAP as follows:

e.	New Accounting Pronouncements

The following amendments to accounting standards have been issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), but are not yet effective as of December 31, 2010.

In July 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, which provides disclosure requirements about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses. The standard requires greater transparency about an entity’s financing receivables, which include loans, long-term receivables, lease receivables, and other long-term receivables. This accounting standard is effective for annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2011.

In October 2009, FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, which amends ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. This amends the criteria for separating consideration in multiple element arrangements. As a result, multiple deliverable arrangements generally will be separated in more circumstances than under existing standard. This accounting standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 15, 2010.

The foregoing amendments to the accounting standards are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
