General Overview of Business
S2G is engaged in the business of acquiring and exploring mining properties principally located in Cambodia and Quebec, Canada, with the objective of identifying gold and mineralized deposits economically worthy of continued production and/or subsequent development, mining or sale.
Recent Developments
On February 25, 2011 (“Closing”), S2G entered into the First Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Securities Exchange (the “Agreement”) with MIG International Mining Group, a company organized under the laws of the Republic of Mauritius (“MIG Mauritius”), certain shareholders of MIG Mauritius (the “MIG Mauritius Holders”) and Millennium International Group, LLC, a California limited liability company (“MIG US,” and collectively with the MIG Mauritius Holders, the “MIG Mauritius Holders”).
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company acquired 85% of the outstanding equity of MIG Mauritius (“MIG Mauritius Shares”), from the MIG Mauritius holders solely in exchange for an aggregate for fifty-seven million (57,000,000) newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”), par value $0.00001 per share (“Shamika Exchange Shares”) and five hundred thousand (500,000) shares of the Company’s Series B Performing Preferred Stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Performing Preferred Shares”), which entitles the holder, to receive a dividend equal to forty-five percent (45%) of the net operating profit, after taxes, of MIG’s mining project operations in Samlaut, Cambodia (the “Performing Preferred Shares”, collectively with the Shamika Exchange Shares, the “Exchange Shares”). The Shamika Exchange Shares were issued to the MIG Mauritius Holders on a pro rata basis, on the basis of the shares held by such MIG Mauritius Holders at the time of the Exchange. Following the closing, the former holders of the Shamika Exchange Shares will beneficially own approximately 51% of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock and 100% of the total outstanding shares of Performing Preferred Shares.
At the Closing, the Shamika Exchange Shares, the Performing Preferred Shares and the Exchange Shares shall be held in escrow until MIG Mauritius has received all required production licenses in Cambodia to mine approximately 240 square kilometers for gold and ruby mineralization in mining exploration rights located in Samlaut, Cambodia, (the “Mining Rights”) and has commenced commercial production for a period of at least two months (the “Release Conditions”). Following satisfactory proof of the Release Conditions, the Exchange Shares shall be released to the MIG Mauritius holders.

DESCRIPTION OF S2G’S BUSINESS
General Overview of Business
S2G is engaged in the business of acquiring and exploring gold and mineral properties with proven and probable reserves principally located in Cambodia and Canada, with the objective of identifying gold and mineralized deposits economically worthy of continued production and/or subsequent development, mining or sale.
On April 2, 2010, the Company acquired production exploration permits located in the Democratic Republic of Congo for the sum of $500,000. On April 6, 2011 the Company assigned all rights and interests in the assets and liabilities of Shamika Gold Mining SPRL to a related company, Shamika Congo Kahele SPRL.
On February 23, 2011, S2G acquired 85% of the outstanding equity of MIG International Mining Group, a company organized under the laws of the Republic of Mauritius, in exchange for 57,000,000 newly issued shares of Shamika common stock, par value $0.00001 per share.

Description of S2G’s Properties
Description of Samplout, Cambodia
The Samplout project comprises a project of approximately 140 sq miles in the Samplout/Samlaut area of Western Cambodia. The land is adjacent to Cambodia’s well known Pailin district, which is a proven producer of rubies. A Survey Report by Terra Insight Services suggests that the property has potential for 9,000 kilograms of rubies and 1.5 million ounces of gold. Shamika’s business plan envisages the initiation of gold and ruby alluvial production in the second half of 2011, the completion of a 43-101 Report and a program of further exploration in accordance with the recommendations.
A NI 43-101, Independent Third-Party Evaluation, will be prepared in 2011. The reader is warned that a NI 43-101 study is a Canadian report, and is not compliant with U.S. SEC regulations. The report and earlier reports not compliant with current SEC regulations used terms such as “ore”, "measured," "indicated," and "inferred" "resources," which current SEC regulations strictly forbid. An effort has been made to remove such words from this document.
Description of Montclerg
This project is situated on lands close to the town of St-Augustin de Woburn in an area known as the Eastern Townships, which is approximately 200 kilometres east of Montreal. The property consists of 23 mineral claims having an area of 17.5 square kilometres. Preliminary surveys have found traces of gold on the property and it is recommended that we undertake additional investigation to localize and determine the extent of the source. Our business plan calls for the completion of a 43-101 report and a program of further exploration based on the recommendations.
Mineralization:
Samplout Project
The project comprises an area of approximately 140 sq miles in the Samplout/Samlaut area of Western Cambodia. The land is adjacent to Cambodia’s well known Pailin district, which is a proven producer of rubies. A Survey Report by Terra Insight Services suggests that the property has potential for 9,000 kilograms of rubies and 1.5 million ounces of gold. Terra Insights Services states that in close proximity to the north and west of the license area, there are known deposits of sapphires and rubies in the province of Trat (Thailand) and Battambang (Cambodia). The most known of such deposit is Pailin: it is the main source of sapphires in Cambodia. The field is characterized by alluvial and eluvial placers that were formed during the destruction of basaltic lavas. The geologic framework is the result of a long and repeated history of sedimentation, volcanism, igneous intrusion, metamorphism, and mountain building. These processes formed ancient and recent mountain chains, folded rocks, and broad sedimentary basins throughout the region. Nonfuel mineral deposits are associated with specific geologic rock types and tectonic settings, and therefore the extensive geologic history of Asia and Pacific region has been conducive to the formation of many kinds of large and abundant mineral deposits. The geologic setting in the Asia and Pacific regions is consistent with the discovery of a number of new, important mineral belts, which may contain potential for the occurrence of undiscovered deposits. In addition, the presence of known mineral deposits suggests that well-known belts also may be areas of new discoveries.
Montclerg Property
This project is situated on lands close to the town of St-Augustin de Woburn in an area known as the Eastern Townships, which is approximately 200 kilometres east of Montreal. The property consists of 23 mineral claims having an area of 17.5 square kilometres.
Preliminary surveys have found traces of gold on the property and it is recommended that we undertake additional investigation to localise and determine the extent of the source. Property brooks Arnold Morin is located about 200 km east of Montreal and 35 km south of Lake Township Megantic in Woburn, about 15 km south of the village of St-Augustin de Woburn (maps 1: 50 000 sheets 21 th / 21 th and 2 / 7). Canada border - the U.S. is located near the eastern boundaries of the property. The property covers a total area of approximately 1750 hectares divided into a block of 41 contiguous lots. Property is situated in the southern Quebec Appalachians, either in the region of the Megantic. Property sector includes, among other things, the massive Lake Chains and granite Devinien Lake to spiders. The formation of the Arnold River, part of the Chain Lakes massif, is regarded as a scale of Grenville. The rock formation is stuck in a thrust fault against the mixing unit Cambro-Ordovician. It consists of a mixture of meta-crystalline gray sandstone, more or less dark grained ranging from fine to medium. We also find granitic gneisses and quartzo-feldspathic granulites (Cheve, 1978). The thickness of this formation may reach several kilometers in the southern part of Quebec.1
An inspection of the Morin placer occurred on November 3 and 4, 2010. Two pannings were done in favorable places for gold deposition. Two gold nuggets were found in the second panning. The SM analysis suggests that the gold is coming from a regolith. This hypothesis is possible since the river valley is perpendicular to the main glacial flow in a similar way as Gilbert River and Mining brook, where gold-bearing placers are known. The valley is of SW-NE orientation. It is this orientation (perpendicular to the main glacial flow) that preserved the pre-Johnville sediments at Mining brook and at Gilbert River.

Projected Costs for Plan of Mining Operations
Our business plan calls for significant expenses in connection with the mining plans for development of production on the properties. Until funding becomes available, the plan cannot be implemented.
We do not have sufficient funds to conduct the 2011 work phases of acquiring production permits in Cambodia and the Company will require additional financing in order to complete the exploration work.
Compliance with Government Regulation
We will be required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of governmental authorities and agencies applicable to the exploration of minerals in Cambodia, Canada. Such operations are subject to various laws governing land use, the protection of the environment, production, exports, taxes, labor standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, well safety and other matters. Unfavorable amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing operations and activities of resource exploration companies, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a materially adverse impact and cause increases in capital expenditures which could result in a cessation of operations. The Company has had no material costs related to compliance and/or permits, and anticipates no material costs in the next year.
We will have to sustain the cost of reclamation and environmental mediation for all exploration and development work undertaken. The amount of these costs is not known at this time as we do not know the extent of the exploration program that will be undertaken beyond completion of the currently planned work programs. Because there is presently no information on the size, tenor, or quality of any resource or reserve at this time, it is impossible to assess the impact of any capital expenditures on earnings or our competitive position in the event a potentially economic deposit is discovered.
If we enter into production, the cost of complying with permit and regulatory environment laws will be greater than in the exploration phases because the impact on the project area is greater. Permits and regulations will control all aspects of any production program if the project continues to that stage because of the potential impact on the environment. Examples of regulatory requirements include:
·
Water discharge will have to meet water standards;
·
Dust generation will have to be minimal or otherwise re-mediated;
·
Dumping of material on the surface will have to be re-contoured and re-vegetated;
·
An assessment of all material to be left on the surface will need to be environmentally benign;
·
Ground water will have to be monitored for any potential contaminants;
·
The socio-economic impact of the project will have to be evaluated and if deemed negative, will have to be re-mediated; and
·
There will have to be an impact report of the work on the local fauna and flora.
Competition
Many companies are engaged in the exploration and development of mineral properties. The Company is at a disadvantage with respect to those competitors whose technical staff and financial resources exceed the Company’s. Our lack of revenues and limited financial resources further hinder our ability to acquire additional mineral interest.
Employees
As of December 31, 2010, the Company had no full time employees. The Company anticipates that it will be conducting most of its business through agreements with consultants and third parties.
RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including information in the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company or that the Company currently believes are immaterial may also impair the Company’s business operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, the Company’s businesses, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
Risks Related to Our Financial Results:
Our company was recently formed, and we have not proven that we can generate a profit. If we fail to generate income and achieve profitability, an investment in our securities may be worthless.
We have no operating history and have not proved that we can operate successfully. We face all of the risks inherent in a new business. From our inception on January 13, 2010 to the end of the period ended December 31, 2010, we have not earned any revenue. The exploration for commercially exploitable mineral deposits or reserves, as well as general, legal, accounting and administrative expenses associated with our reporting requirements with the SEC, is expected to require from us total expenditures over the next twelve months in an approximate amount of $5,000,000. We presently do not have sufficient funds to pursue our stated plan of operation for the next twelve-month period. We will require additional financing for our operational expenses, and further exploration work for commercially exploitable mineral deposits or reserves. We are seeking these additional funds via equity financing, private placements or loans from our directors or current shareholders. Currently, we do not have arrangements for additional funds. Your investments in our common stock must therefore be regarded as the placing of funds at a high risk in a recently formed company with all the unforeseen costs, expenses, problems, and difficulties to which such companies without proven record are subject to.
We have had losses since our inception. We expect losses to continue in the future and there is a risk we may never become profitable.
We have incurred losses of $388,261 during the year ended December 31, 2010. In addition, during that period, we have a net working capital deficiency of $230,916 at December 31, 2010. We expect to continue to incur significant operating expenses as we maintain our current exploration programs. Our operating expenses have been and are expected to continue to outpace revenues and result in significant losses in the near term. We may never be able to reduce these losses, which will require us to seek additional debt or equity financing. If such financing is available, of which there can be no assurance, you may experience significant additional dilution.
We have no operating history. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in growing our gold and other mineral exploration activities.
We have no history of operations. As a result, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our acquisition and exploration of gold and mineral properties activities. Our success to date in entering into ventures to acquire mineral properties is not indicative that we will be successful in entering into any further ventures. Any potential for future growth in our mineral exploration activities will place additional demands on our executive officers, and any increased scope of our operations will present challenges due to our current limited management resources. Our future performance will depend upon our management and their ability to locate and negotiate additional exploration opportunities in which we are solely involved or participate in as a joint venture partner. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts. Our inability to locate additional opportunities, to hire additional management and other personnel, or to enhance our management systems, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. There can be no assurance that our operations will be profitable.
If we do not obtain additional financing, our business will fail.
We need to obtain additional financing in order to pursue our business plan. We currently do not have any operations and we have no income. We do not have any arrangements for financing and we may not be able to find such financing if required. Obtaining additional financing would be subject to a number of factors, including investor acceptance of mineral claims and investor sentiment. These factors may adversely affect the timing, amount, terms, or conditions of any financing that we may obtain or make any additional financing unavailable to us.
Our independent auditors have expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, which may hinder our ability to obtain future financing.
In their report, our independent auditors stated that our accompanying financial statements filed herewith were prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. We are uncertain if we will have sufficient cash to operate for the next twelve months, our ability to sustain our operations beyond this period without further financing cannot be assured.
We continue to experience net operating losses. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to generate a profit and/or obtain necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of our securities, increasing sales or obtaining loans and grants from various financial institutions where possible. The going concern uncertainty modification in the auditor's report increases the difficulty in meeting such goals and there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful.
Fluctuations in our operating results and announcements and developments concerning our business affect our stock price.
Our quarterly operating results, the number of stockholders desiring to sell their shares, changes in general economic conditions and the financial markets, the execution of new contracts and the completion of existing agreements and other developments affecting us, could cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially.
Our management believes that long-term profitability and growth will depend on its ability to:
§ Develop the reputation of S2G as a successful mining property acquisition and exploration company;
§ Successfully identify and exploit mining opportunities;
§ Develop viable strategic alliances; and
§ Maintain sufficient volume of successful new mining opportunities.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS AND OUR INDUSTRY
We will need to increase the size of our organization, and may experience difficulties in managing growth.
We are a small company with no employees as of December 31, 2010. We hope to experience a period of expansion in employees, facilities, infrastructure and overhead and anticipate that further expansion will be required to address potential growth and market opportunities. Future growth will impose significant added responsibilities on members of management, including the need to identify, recruit, maintain and integrate additional independent contractors and managers. Our future financial performance and our ability to compete effectively will depend, in part, on our ability to manage any future growth effectively.
We require additional working capital in order to achieve commercial production at the Samplout Property.
The company has no current operating funds to complete the intended plan of mining operations for the Samplout Property. The Company does not have sufficient funds on hand for the unpaid amounts of our estimated costs related to maintaining the minimum annual payment obligations associated with the maintenance of the Samplout Property as discussed in this Current Report and our estimated administrative costs for 12 months from the date of this Current Report. Therefore, we will need to obtain additional financing in order to complete our business plan. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had no cash. The Company has no income from operations.
Our business plan calls for significant expenses in connection with the continued evaluation and development to production of the Samplout Property. The Company does not have sufficient funds to conduct the initial mine development work on the property. The Company will require additional financing in order to complete remaining phases of mine development and production capacity. The Company will also require additional financing if the costs of the mine development for the Samplout Property are greater than anticipated.
Our proposed exploration plan is dependent on additional financing. After obtaining funding to conduct exploration and development, at the completion of each phase of our operating plan we will evaluate the results and make a determination to proceed to the next phase of mine development and its associated estimated cost. The results of each phase of work will allow us to update our geological information on the properties and will be used to base our decision to proceed to the next phase of mine evaluation and development.
Each subsequent phase of mine development will require additional funds beyond the Company’s current cash resources. The Company will need to obtain additional financing from the sale of its securities to fund these operational expenditures and future administrative costs. Our administrative costs will be dependent upon the time frame undertaken to complete the remaining phases of our plan of mining operations. We do not have funding in our current operating funds sufficient to cover our administrative costs for the period of one year from the date of this Current Report, which are estimated to be $5,000,000. To the extent we need more than one year to complete the remaining exploration or our administrative costs are higher than estimated, we will require additional financing to cover administrative costs.
We will require additional financing to sustain our business operations if we are not successful in earning revenues once initial production work is complete. We do not currently have any arrangements for financing and may not be able to find such financing if required. Obtaining additional financing would be subject to a number of factors, including the market price for gold and precious metals, investor acceptance of our property and general market conditions. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms or conditions of additional financing unavailable to us.
The most likely source of future funds presently available to us is through the sale of equity capital. Any sale of share capital will result in dilution to existing shareholders. The only other anticipated alternative for the financing of further exploration would be advances from related parties and joint venture or sale of a partial interests in the properties to a third party in exchange for cash or exploration expenditures, which is not presently contemplated.
Our officers and directors are involved in other businesses which may cause them to devote less time to our business.
Our officers' and directors' involvement with other businesses may cause them to allocate their time and services between us and other entities. Consequently, they may give priority to other matters over our needs which may materially cause us to lose their services temporarily which could affect our operations and profitability.
We are dependent on our management and the loss of any officer could hinder the implementation of our business plan.
We are heavily dependent on the members of our management team, the loss of any of whom could have a material adverse affect on our ability to implement our business plan. If, for some reason, the services of our management, or of any member of management, were no longer available to us, our operations and proposed businesses and endeavors may be materially adversely affected. There can be no assurance that our operating control systems will be adequate to support its future operations and anticipated growth. Failure to manage our growth properly could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or result of operations.
The imprecision of mineral deposit estimates may prove any resource calculations that we make to be unreliable.
Mineral deposit estimates and related databases are expressions of judgment based on knowledge, mining experience, and analysis of drilling results and industry practices. Valid estimates made at a given time may significantly change when new information becomes available. By their nature, mineral deposit estimates are imprecise and depend upon statistical inferences, which may ultimately prove unreliable. Mineral deposit estimates included here, if any, have not been adjusted in consideration of these risks and, therefore, no assurances can be given that any mineral deposit estimate will ultimately be reclassified as reserves.
We are sensitive to fluctuations in the price of gold and other minerals, which is beyond our control. The price of gold and other metals is volatile and price changes are beyond our control.
The prices for gold and other metals fluctuate and are affected by numerous factors beyond our control. Factors that affect the price of gold and other metals include consumer demand, economic conditions, over supply from secondary sources and costs of production. Price volatility and downward price pressure, which can lead to lower prices, could have a material adverse effect on the costs of and the viability of our projects.
Mineral exploration and prospecting is highly competitive and speculative business and we may not be successful in seeking available opportunities.
The process of mineral exploration and prospecting is a highly competitive and speculative business. In seeking available opportunities, we will compete with a number of other companies, including established, multi-national companies that have more experience and financial and human resources than us. Because we may not have the financial and managerial resources to compete with other companies, we may not be successful in our efforts to acquire new projects. However, while we compete with other exploration companies, there is no competition for the exploration or removal of mineral from our claims.
Compliance with environmental considerations and permitting could have a material adverse effect on the costs or the viability of our projects. The historical trend toward stricter environmental regulation may continue, and, as such, represents an unknown factor in our planning processes.
The gold and mineral mining business is subject not only to worker health and safety, and environmental risks associated with all mining businesses, but is also subject to additional risks uniquely associated with gold and other minerals mining. Although we believe that our operations will be in compliance, in all material respects, with all relevant permits, licenses and regulations involving worker health and safety, as well as the environment, the historical trend toward stricter environmental regulation may continue. The possibility of more stringent regulations exists in the areas of worker health and safety, the dispositions of wastes, the decommissioning and reclamation of mining and milling sites and other environmental matters, each of which could have an adverse material effect on the costs or the viability of a particular project.
Mining and exploration activities are subject to extensive regulation by Federal and State governments. Future changes in governments, regulations and policies, could adversely affect our results of operations for a particular period and our long-term business prospects.
Mining and exploration activities are subject to extensive regulation by Federal and State Governments. Such regulation relates to production, development, exploration, exports, taxes and royalties, labor standards, occupational health, waste disposal, protection and remediation of the environment, mine and mill reclamation, mine and mill safety, toxic substances and other matters. Compliance with such laws and regulations has increased the costs of exploring, drilling, developing, constructing, operating mines and other facilities. Furthermore, future changes in governments, regulations and policies, could adversely affect our results of operations in a particular period and its long-term business prospects.
The development of mines and related facilities is contingent upon governmental approvals, which are complex and time consuming to obtain and which, depending upon the location of the project, involve various governmental agencies. The duration and success of such approvals are subject to many variables outside of our control.
Because of the inherent dangers involved in mineral exploration and production, there is a risk that we may incur liability or damages as we conduct our business.
Exploration and establishment of mining operations to production involves numerous hazards. As a result, the Company may become subject to liability for such hazards, including pollution, cave-ins and other hazards against which the Company cannot insure or against which the Company may elect not to insure. The payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position.
If we do not conduct mineral exploration on our mineral claims and keep the claims in good standing, then our right to the mineral claims will lapse and we will lose everything that we have invested and expended towards these claims.
We must complete mineral exploration work on our mineral claims and keep the claims in good standing. If we do not fulfill our work commitment requirements on our claims or keep the claims in good standing, then our right to the claims will lapse and we will lose all interest that we have in these mineral claims.
We are subject to compliance with securities law, which exposes us to potential liabilities, including potential rescission rights.
We have periodically offered and sold our common stock to investors pursuant to certain exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) as well as those of various state securities laws. The basis for relying on such exemptions is factual; that is, the applicability of such exemptions depends upon our conduct and that of those persons contacting prospective investors and making the offering. We have not received a legal opinion to the effect that any of our prior offerings were exempt from registration under any federal or state law. Instead, we have relied upon the operative facts as the basis for such exemptions, including information provided by investors themselves.
If any prior offering did not qualify for such exemption, an investor would have the right to rescind its purchase of the securities if it so desired. It is possible that if an investor should seek rescission, such investor would succeed. A similar situation prevails under state law in those states where the securities may be offered without registration in reliance on the partial preemption from the registration or qualification provisions of such state statutes under the National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996. If investors were successful in seeking rescission, we would face severe financial demands that could adversely affect our business and operations. Additionally, if we did not in fact qualify for the exemptions upon which it has relied, we may become subject to significant fines and penalties imposed by the SEC and state securities agencies.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK
There is only a limited trading market for our common stock.
Our common stock is quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board quotation service. Our shareholders may not be able to use their shares for collateral or loans and may not be able to liquidate at a suitable price in the event of an emergency. In addition, our shareholders may not be able to resell their shares at or above the price they paid for them or may not be able to sell the shares at all. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any markets that may develop for the securities, the ability of holders of the securities to sell their securities, or the prices at which holders may be able to sell their securities.
The shares of common stock eligible for future sale could negatively affect the market price of our common stock.
The Company has approximately a total of 112,600,006 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. If the Company's stockholders sell substantial amounts of the Company's common stock in the public market, including shares issued upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants, the market price of its common stock could fall. These sales also may make it more difficult for the Company to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that the Company deems reasonable or appropriate. Stockholders who have been issued shares in the Acquisition will be able to sell their shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, beginning one year after the stockholders acquired their shares.
Our common stock may be deemed to be a penny stock and, as such, we are subject to the risks associated with “penny stocks”. Regulations relating to “penny stocks” limit the ability of our shareholders to sell their shares and, as a result, our shareholders may have to hold their shares indefinitely.
Our common stock is currently listed for trading on the Over the Counter Market, which is generally considered to be a less efficient market than markets such as NASDAQ or other national exchanges, and which may cause difficulty in obtaining future financing. Furthermore, our common stocks may be deemed to be “penny stock” as that term is defined in Regulation Section “240.3a51 -1” of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Penny stocks are stocks: (a) with a price of less than U.S. $5.00 per share; (b) that are not traded on a “recognized” national exchange; (c) whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation system (NASDAQ -where listed stocks must still meet requirement (a) above); or (d) in issuers with net tangible assets of less than U.S. $2,000,000 (if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years) or U.S. $5,000,000 (if in continuous operation for less than three years), or with average revenues of less than U.S. $6,000,000 for the last three years.
Section “15(g)” of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation Section “240.15g(c) 2” of the SEC require broker dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Potential investors in the Company’s common shares are urged to obtain and read such disclosure carefully before purchasing any common shares that are deemed to be “penny stock”.
Moreover, Regulation Section “240.15g -9” of the SEC requires broker dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker dealer to: (a) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (b) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (c) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (d) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor confirming that it accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult for investors in the Company’s common shares to resell their common shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them. Stockholders should be aware that, according to Securities and Exchange Commission Release No. 34-29093, dated April 17, 1991, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:
(i) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
(ii) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;
(iii) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons;
(iv) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and
(v) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses.
Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities.
As an issuer of “penny stock” the protection provided by the federal securities laws relating to forward looking statements does not apply to us.
Although the federal securities law provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by a public company that files reports under the federal securities laws, this safe harbor is not available to issuers of penny stocks. As a result, if we are a penny stock we will not have the benefit of this safe harbor protection in the event of any claim that the material provided by us contained a material misstatement of fact or was misleading in any material respect because of our failure to include any statements necessary to make the statements not misleading.
Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results and stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting.
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our operating results could be harmed. We may be required in the future to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires increased control over financial reporting requirements, including annual management assessments of the effectiveness of such internal controls and a report by our independent certified public accounting firm addressing these assessments. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment, regardless of whether we are required to maintain such controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a material adverse effect on our stock price.
Shares eligible for future sale, if at all, may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, as the future sale of a substantial amount of our restricted stock in the public marketplace could reduce the price of our common stock.
From time to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible, if at all, to sell all or some of their shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to Rule 144, a stockholder (or stockholders whose shares are aggregated) who has satisfied a one-year holding period may, under certain circumstances, sell within any three-month period a number of securities which does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares of common stock or the average weekly trading volume of the class during the four calendar weeks prior to such sale. Rule 144 also permits, under certain circumstances, the sale of securities, without any limitations, by a non-affiliate of our company that has satisfied a two-year holding period. Any substantial sale of common stock pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any resale prospectus may have an adverse effect on the market price of our securities.
We do not expect to pay dividends in the future. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of the Company’s stock.
We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our stock in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends on our stock will depend on our earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting us at such time as the board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, its stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.

MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.
(a) Market Information.
Quotations for our common stock are reported on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "SHMX." The following table sets forth the range of high and low bid price information for the common stock for each fiscal quarter for the past two fiscal years. High and low bid quotations represent prices between dealers without adjustment for retail mark-ups, markdowns or commissions and may not necessarily represent actual transactions:
For the periods indicated, the following table sets forth the high and low bid prices per share of our common stock. These prices represent inter-dealer quotations without retail markup, markdown, or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.
* For the period indicated, quotation of the Company’s common stock commenced on March 26, 2010.
The shares quoted are subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act"), commonly referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.
The Commission generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rule 3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be a penny stock unless that security is: registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the Commission; authorized for quotation on The NASDAQ Stock Market; issued by a registered investment company; excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the registrant's net tangible assets; or exempted from the definition by the Commission. Trading in the shares is subject to additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors, generally persons with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouse.
For transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and must have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction, of a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, and current quotations for the securities. Finally, the monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of broker dealers to trade and/or maintain a market in the company’s common stock and may affect the ability of shareholders to sell their shares.
(b) Numbers of Shareholders
The approximate number of holders of our Common Stock as of April 15, 2011 was 72.
(c) Dividends
Since inception of Shamika 2 Gold, we have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends to stockholders in the foreseeable future. In addition, any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, and such other factors as the Board of Directors deem relevant.
The shares quoted are subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act"), commonly referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.

Plan of Operation
We do not have sufficient funds to conduct work phases of further drilling and assaying, and completion of the mine plan on the properties.
Shamika 2 Gold’s goals and objective for the current year will be adjusted according to the availability of funds and changing market conditions. Management has identified several work programs for its Samplout and Montclerg properties. Management’s goal is to raise at least $5,000,000 to move these properties forward. As additional funds become available, management plans to continue to advance its current properties. Management’s goal is to perform additional evaluation and exploration with a view to possibly obtaining an operating partner on the Cambodia project to allow the Company to achieve production on the Samplout property. Management estimates that the initial cost to pursue this course of action to be approximately $5,000,000. Management has had and will continue to have discussions both for acquisitions and financing with the goal that both the properties and financing can be arranged in a coordinated time frame. Management’s focus in these efforts is to enhance shareholder value and create a base of operations from which future expansion and growth can occur.
Much of the past year has been spent on organization activities including obtaining trading status on the OTC as well as a number of changes at the management and director level of the Company. While the effects from some of the changes continue, we believe that our reorganizational efforts have been successful and a stronger and more experience management team is in the process of being created, which will lay the foundation of our future growth.
Samplout Project
Shamika 2 Gold’s Samplout project in place in Cambodia is scheduled for development as funding, which is not yet available, allows. Samplout covers an area of approximately 100 sq. km of gold and ruby mineralization. The estimated primary gold resources are estimated to be 1,500,000 ounces with a recovery rate of 60% and estimated ruby gem weight of 9,000 kg with a recovery rate of 60%. The Company is planning financing between $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 that will be used to obtain a production licence, build the basic infrastructure and bring one or more operating partners to effect exploitation using dredging equipment and another using heavy equipment. These operating partners will be regional operators with extensive experience in these types of production. The Company intends on conducting a NI-43-101 and develop a drilling program to establish and confirm the resources.
Cost and revenue assumptions-Samplout
The focus of our initial operating plan is aimed at the exploitation of a gold and ruby bearing zone in Battambang and Pailin Provinces in the Kingdom of Cambodia. As soon as funding permits, S2G plans to complete an NI-43-10 and will establish a drilling program of nearby known target areas of gold and ruby mineralization with a view to beginning production in the near future.
Until we realize production from the Samplout Property we will not generate significant revenues and may not be successful. Once we are able to start, if we can’t generate sufficient revenues to continue operations, we will be forced to suspend or cease operations.
No Operating History- Need for Additional Capital
There is no historical information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are at an exploration stage operation and have had no revenues. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. We must raise approximately $5 to $10 million in planned equity financing over the next two years in order to carry-out our Plan of Operations as discussed further above.
We have no assurance that future financings will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available to us on acceptable terms, we may be unable to continue our operations.
Results of Operations for the Period from Inception through December 31, 2010
We have earned no revenues from Shamika 2 Gold’s inception on January 13, 2010 to December 31, 2010. We do not anticipate earning revenues unless we enter into commercial production on the Samplout Property, which will not happen for the foreseeable future. We have only commenced the exploration stage of our business and can provide no assurance that we will discover economic mineralization on the property, or if such minerals are discovered, that we will enter into commercial production.
We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $284,762 and a loss from discontinued operations of $103,499 for fiscal 2010. These operating expenses were comprised of organizational costs of $86,750 legal and professional fees of $118,827 and various general and administrative expenses of $34,591 as well as management fees paid to related companies of $40,000. We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue exploration activities. For these reasons our auditors believe that there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expense consisted of accounting and professional fees and other general expenses. General and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 were $34,591.
Net loss for the fiscal year ended to December 31, 2010 was a loss of $388,261.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Currently, we do not maintain a any cash accounts. Our expenses were paid and cash was provided through a management agreement with a related party.
At December 31, 2010, our cash was $-0- and we had currently liabilities of $738,913. Since our inception on January 13, 2010, to the end of the period ended December 31, 2010, we have incurred losses of $388,261. We attribute our net loss to having no revenues to offset our operating expenses.
We have no cash flow from operations and do not have cash and or equivalents to meet our core operational requirements for the next 12 months, but we will also be required to raise additional working capital to fund our Plan of Mining Operations of approximately $5 to $10 Million in planned equity financing over the next two years in order to carry-out the Plan of Operations as discussed further above.
We have no assurance that future financings will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available to us on acceptable terms, we may be unable to continue our operations. Should our costs and expenses prove to be greater than we currently anticipate, or should we change our current Plan of Mining Operations in a manner that will increase or accelerate our anticipated costs and expenses, such as through the acquisition of new properties, the depletion of our working capital would be accelerated. To the extent that it becomes necessary to raise additional cash in the future as our current cash and working capital resources are depleted, we will seek to raise it through the public or private sale of debt or equity securities, the procurement of advances on contracts or funding from joint-venture or strategic partners, debt financing or term loans, or a combination of the foregoing. We also may seek to satisfy indebtedness without any cash outlay through the private issuance of debt or equity securities.
We have no assurance that future financings will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available to us on acceptable terms, we may be unable to continue our operations.
Future Plans
Shamika 2 Gold’s goals and objective for the current year will be adjusted according to the availability of funds and changing market conditions. Management has identified several work programs for its Samplout and Montclerg properties. Management’s goal is to raise at least $5,000,000 to move these properties forward. As additional funds become available, management plans to continue to advance its current properties. Management’s goal is to perform additional evaluation and exploration with a view to possibly obtaining an operating partner on the Cambodia project to allow the Company to achieve production on the Samplout property. Management estimates that the initial cost to pursue this course of action to be approximately $5,000,000. Management has had and will continue to have discussions both for acquisitions and financing with the goal that both the properties and financing can be arranged in a coordinated time frame. Management’s focus in these efforts is to enhance shareholder value and create a base of operations from which future expansion and growth can occur.
GOING CONCERN
In connection with their audit report on our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2010, Hancock Askew & Co., LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern because such continuance is dependent upon our ability to generate revenues and raise capital.
We have explored, and continue to explore, all avenues possible to raise the funds required. We have no revenue-producing activity. We also need capital to fund overhead and administrative costs as well as transaction expenses. We have met our operating costs to date through the equity and debt financing from our shareholders and other investors; however, there can be no assurance that our shareholders and other investors will be able or willing to make additional investments in the future to fund continued operations.
The Company requires further funding to continue to develop its mines and fund corporate overhead. Although we believe that there is a reasonable basis that we will successfully raise the needed funds, we cannot provide assurance that sufficient capital to sustain operations can be met. Moreover, the Company cannot provide assurance that it will maintain a level of profitability sufficient to meet operating expenses and corporate overhead.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, as well as the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The use of estimates, judgments, and assumptions creates a level of uncertainty with respect to reported or disclosed amounts in our consolidated financial statements or accompanying notes. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates, judgments, and assumptions, including those that management considers critical to the accurate presentation and disclosure of our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates, judgments, and assumptions on historical experience, current trends, and various other factors that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the inherent uncertainty in using estimates, judgments, and assumptions, actual results may differ from these estimates.
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. We believe the following assumptions and estimates are the most critical to understanding and evaluating our reported financial results.
Management has reviewed these critical accounting estimates and related disclosures with our Board of Directors.
Mineral Properties, Mineral Claim Payments and Exploration Expenses
The Company expenses all costs related to the acquisition, maintenance and exploration of the unproven mineral properties to which it has secured exploration rights. If and when proven and probable reserves are determined for a property and a feasibility study is completed, then subsequent development costs of the property are capitalized. Once capitalized, such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserves. To date, excluding the mineral properties acquired in the Aultra Gold, Inc. asset acquisition, the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of its exploration prospects, therefore all costs have been expensed.
The Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment under ASC 930 Extractive Activities - Mining (ASC 930) annually. An impairment is recognized when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the mineral property. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the mineral property over its estimated fair value. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations. If a change were to occur in any of the above-mentioned factors or estimates as it relates to capitalized assets, the likelihood of a material change in our reported results may occur.
Convertible Instruments
The Company reviews the terms of convertible debt and equity instruments to determine whether there are conversion features or embedded derivative instruments including embedded conversion options that are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. In circumstances where the convertible instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including conversion options that are required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single compound instrument. Also, in connection with the sale of convertible debt and equity instruments, the Company may issue free standing warrants that may, depending on their terms, be accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, rather than as equity. In addition, certain conversion features are recognized as beneficial conversion features to the extent the conversion price as defined in the convertible note is less than the closing stock price on the issuance of the convertible notes. A change the market price of our common stock would result in a change in the number of shares that would be issued based on the conversion features of the related convertible notes.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ASC 820, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements: In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued accounting guidance intended to improve disclosures related to fair value measurements. This guidance requires significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements to be disclosed separately along with the reasons for the transfers. Additionally, in the reconciliation for the fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be presented separately (cannot net as one number). This guidance also provides clarification for existing disclosures on (i) level of disaggregation and (ii) inputs and valuation techniques. In addition, this guidance includes conforming amendments for employers’ disclosure of postretirement benefit plan assets. This guidance was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll-forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
1. Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
A. On March 25, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Registrant dismissed its independent registered public accounting firm, Gruber & Company, LLC (“Gruber”).
B. The report of Gruber on the predecessor company Aultra for the year ending December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles other than going concern.
C. The decision to change accountants was approved by the Registrant's Board of directors on March 25, 2011, and on such date Hancock Askew & Co, LLP (“Hancock”) was engaged as the Registrant's new independent registered public accountants. The Registrant did not consult Hancock regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant's financial statements, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event in connection with its report on the Registrant’s financial statements.
D. During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through the date of dismissal, there were no disagreements with Gruber on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Gruber, would have caused it to make reference to the matter in connection with its reports. There were no "reportable events" in connection with its report on the Registrant’s financial statements.
E. The Registrant has made the contents of its Form 8-K available to Gruber and requested it to furnish a letter to the Commission as to whether Gruber agrees or disagrees with, or wishes to clarify the Registrant's expression of their views. The Registrant will amend this Current Report to include such letter as Exhibit 16.1.
2. New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
The Registrant has engaged Hancock as its new independent certified public accounting firm to audit the Registrant’s financial statements December 31, 2010. During the two most recent years or any subsequent interim period prior to engaging Hancock, the Registrant did not consult such firm on any of the matters regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or contemplated, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant’s financial statements or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or event identified in response to (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event as that term is used in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
ITEM 9A
ITEM 9A (T).
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Since its appointment, the President of Shamika 2 Gold, Inc. acts both as our chief executive officer and principal accounting officer and is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for the Company.
We are required to maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of December 31, 2010, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision, and with the participation of management, Robert Vivian, acting as our chief executive officer and principal accounting officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.
Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and principal accounting officer concluded that, as of the end of the fiscal period ending December 31, 2010 our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports we submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our chief executive officer and principal accounting officer in a manner that allowed for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management or board override of the control.
The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's CEO and CFO and effected by the company's board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that: pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
As of December 31, 2010 management assessed the effectiveness of our 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 and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.
Identified Weaknesses
The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board was the lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.
·
-We lack sufficient trained personnel with experience in accounting and financial reporting functions due to the size of our Company and our lack of financial resources to pay such personnel; and
·
-We do not have a sufficient number of employees to adequately segregate accounting duties to provide for sufficient internal controls.
Management also believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.
The Company does not have an adequate segregation of duties due to a limited number of employees among whom duties can be allocated. In particular there is not a segregation of access to cash and the ability to authorize and record transactions.
Management's Remediation Initiatives
In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated a plan to appoint one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management.
Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board. While we are actively seeking outside members, including candidates with accounting experience, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be successful. Given the size of our company, lack of revenues and current lack of financing to continue with our business, it is unlikely that anyone will agree to join our Board until general economic conditions and our own business prospects improve significantly.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
During the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2010, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that we believe could materially affect, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC.

OTHER INFORMATION
On January 13, 2010, Shamika Gold Mining SPRL, a subsidiary, was contributed as initial capital to the Company. During 2010 the Company spent resources on permits to develop the Congo claims: the Lubutu project consists in 72 mining blocks controlled, covering 61 km2 located on lands in Lubutu, Pting the province of Maniema. This location is in the heart of the Kibara Metallogenic Belt approximately 300 kilometers northwest of Lake Kivu. The Poko project consists in an exploration permit located on lands in the Kilo-Moto Greenstone belt area in Congo’s Eastern region covering an area of 120 mining blocks and 101 km2. During the fourth quarter the Company reallocated its resources to find other projects and to focus efforts on the Cambodia project (see note 10), ceased expenditures and further, the Company decided to abandon its efforts on the Congo properties. There was no activity on the Congo properties subsequent to year-end. On April 6, 2011 the Company assigned all rights and interests in the assets and liabilities of Shamika Gold Mining SPRL to a related company, Shamika Congo Kahele SPRL. The Company has no continuing involvement in Shamika Gold Mining SPRL. As a result of the decision to abandon the Congo projects prior to the issuance of financial statements, the Company has accounted for the subsidiary disposal as discontinued operations as of December 31, 2010.
On April 14, 2011, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the issuance of an aggregate of 4,800,000 shares of Common Stock to its founders. The market price on April 14, 2011 was $0.26 per share, so the value of this share grant was $1,248,000.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Shamika 2 Gold, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Shamika 2 Gold, Inc. as of December 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the period from inception (January 13, 2010) to December 31, 2010. Shamika 2 Gold, Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Shamika 2 Gold, Inc. as of December 31, 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from inception (January 13, 2010) to December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Shamika 2 Gold, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has limited liquidity and has incurred a loss from operations and other conditions exist which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1. Nature of Operations
a) Organization and Change of Business
Aultra Gold Inc. (" Aultra"), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 26, 2005 and was primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties until April 2006. On April 26, 2006, there was a change in management and direction and Aultra engaged in the acquisition and licensing of online gaming technologies. In 2008 and 2009, Aultra changed strategy to focus on exploration and mining and had acquired interests in certain mining properties in Nevada, Oregon, and Montana.
On January 6, 2010, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. (“Dutch Gold”) acquired 6.4 million shares of Aultra common stock which was a 67% controlling interest of Aultra for a purchase price of one million newly-issued shares of Dutch Gold’s common stock. On January 6, 2010, Aultra entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Dutch Gold to be effective as of December 31, 2009 in which Aultra sold substantially all of its assets to Dutch Gold. As consideration for these assets, Dutch Gold issued 9,614,667 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to the Aultra shareholders. In accordance with the transaction, Dutch Gold acquired substantially all of the assets related to Aultra’s gold and mineral business, including inventory, accounts receivable, certain supply and distribution and other vendor contracts, good will and other various assets and intangibles.
On January 13, 2010, Aultra entered into an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange (the “Exchange”) with Shamika Gold Inc. ("SGI") and the shareholders of SGI pursuant to which Aultra acquired all of the outstanding shares of SGI. For accounting purposes, this is a reverse acquisition with SGI the accounting acquirer of Aultra. For legal purposes Aultra issued shares to the SGI shareholders followed by a merger and recapitalization of Aultra whereby SGI shares were cancelled and Aultra is the surviving entity.
SGI is a Canadian private corporation created by Articles of incorporation on January 13, 2010. SGI primary business activity consists of mining property acquisition, mineral exploration and development.
As a result of the transaction, 50 million shares were outstanding with 25.5 million (approximately 51%) held by the SGI shareholders, 23.5 million issued to settle liabilities and obligations of Aultra and approximately 1 million held by the former Aultra shareholders.
Upon consummation of the Exchange, the business plan of SGI was adopted and Aultra changed its name to Shamika 2 Gold, Inc. (the “Company”).

b) Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company’s financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of $388,261 for the period from January 13, 2010 (inception) to December 31, 2010. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of acquisitions. Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Significant Accounting Policies
a) Basis of Accounting
These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and include our accounts and the accounts of our majority-owned controlled subsidiary. As the Company has not generated any revenues from is principal intended activity of mining operations, the Company is considered to be in the exploration stage. The Company currently operates in one reportable segment. Summarized below are those policies considered particularly significant to the Company.
b) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of any contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues earned and expenses incurred during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
c) Financial Instruments and Financial Risk
The Company’s financial instruments consists of cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, the fair values of which approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the Company’s debt instruments are calculated based upon the availability of debt instruments with similar terms, rates, privileges and credit quality.

Significant Accounting Policies-continued
d) Cash and Concentrations
Financial instruments, which could potentially subject the Company to credit risk, consist primarily of cash. Cash is managed for the Company by a related party, Shamika Resources Inc. The Company is at risk of loss to the extent that the related party does not uphold its obligations to the Company.
The Company’s operations are all related to the minerals and mining industry. A reduction in mineral prices, political unrest in the countries in which the Company operates or other disturbances in the minerals market could have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations.
e) Environmental Costs
Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are charged to operations or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations, and which do not contribute to current or future revenue generation, are charged to operations. Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable, and the cost can be reasonably estimated. Generally, the timing of these accruals coincides with the earlier of completion of a feasibility study or the Company’s commitments to plan of action based on the then known facts. Management has determined that recording a liability pertaining to environmental expenditures as of December 31, 2010 is not needed.
f) Per Share Data
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus common stock equivalents (if dilutive) related to warrants and convertible notes.
The Company has excluded all common equivalent shares outstanding for warrants and convertible notes from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because all such securities are anti-dilutive for the periods presented. As of December 31, 2010, 166,668 warrants had been issued which represent potential shares which may be issued resulting from the provisions of convertible notes and approximately 210,000 common shares that may be issued upon the conversion of convertible notes.

Significant Accounting Policies-continued
g) Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes. Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. ASC 740 also requires that uncertain tax positions are evaluated in a two-step process, whereby (1) it is determined whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority would be recognized.
h) Revenue Recognition
The Company plans to recognize revenue from the sale of product when an agreement of sale exists, product delivery has occurred, title has transferred to the customer and collection is reasonably assured. The price to be received is based upon terms of a sales contract. The Company has not generated revenue activity for the periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.
i) Stock Based Compensation
The Company has adopted ASC 718, Stock Compensation, which requires the Company to measure the compensation cost of stock options and other stock-based awards to employees and directors at fair value at the grant date and recognize compensation expense over the requisite service period for awards expected to vest. The Company has not issued any stock based compensation awards in 2010.
The Company may periodically issue stock for payment of certain professional fees and these stock issuances are expensed based on the market value of the stock on the date granted. The Company expenses these professional fees at the time of stock issuance as the stock issuance date approximates the date the services are performed. No such issuances were made in 2010.
j) Asset Retirement Obligation
The Company follows ASC 410-20, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated retirement costs. The standard applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and normal use of the asset.
Shamika 2 Gold Inc.
An Exploration Stage Company
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010
j) Asset Retirement Obligation - continued
ASC 410-20 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The fair value of the liability is added to the carrying amount of the associated asset and this additional carrying amount is depreciated over the life of the asset. The liability is accreted at the end of each period through charges to operating expense. If the obligation is settled for other than the carrying amount of the liability, the Company will recognize a gain or loss on settlement. The Company has no mining projects in production as of December 31, 2010, and the asset retirement obligations are usually created as part of the production process. Accordingly, at December 31, 2010, the Company had no asset retirement obligations.
k) Mineral Properties, Mineral Claim Payments and Exploration Expenses
The Company expenses all costs related to the acquisition, maintenance and exploration of the unproven mineral properties to which it has secured exploration rights. If and when proven and probable reserves are determined for a property and a feasibility study is completed, then subsequent development costs of the property are capitalized. Once capitalized, such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserves. To date, excluding the mineral properties in the Democratic Republic of Congo which were discontinued subsequent to year end (see note 4), the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of its exploration prospects, therefore all costs have been expensed. The costs related to acquisition, maintenance and exploration were not material for the years presented in the consolidated statement of operations.
The Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment under ASC 930 Extractive Activities - Mining (ASC 930) annually. An impairment is recognized when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the mineral property. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the mineral property over its estimated fair value. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.

December 31, 2010
l) Convertible Instruments
The Company reviews the terms of convertible debt and equity instruments to determine whether there are conversion features or embedded derivative instruments including embedded conversion options that are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. In circumstances where the convertible instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including conversion options that are required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single compound instrument. Also, in connection with the sale of convertible debt and equity instruments, the Company may issue free standing warrants that may, depending on their terms, be accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, rather than as equity. When convertible debt or equity instruments contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and accounted for separately, the total proceeds allocated to the convertible host instruments are first allocated to the fair value of all the bifurcated derivative instruments. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the convertible instruments themselves, usually resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their face amount. When the Company issues debt securities, which bear interest at rates that are lower than market rates, the Company recognizes a discount, which is offset against the carrying value of the debt. Such discount from the face value of the debt, together with the stated interest on the instrument, is amortized over the life of the instrument through periodic charges to income.
In addition, certain conversion features are recognized as beneficial conversion features to the extent the conversion price as defined in the convertible note is less than the closing stock price on the issuance of the convertible notes.
Fees incurred in the placement of the convertible notes are deferred and recognized over the life of the debt agreement as an adjustment to interest expense using the interest method.
m)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ASC 820, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements: In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued accounting guidance intended to improve disclosures related to fair value measurements. This guidance requires significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements to be disclosed separately along with the reasons for the transfers. Additionally, in the reconciliation for the fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be presented separately (cannot net as one number). This guidance also provides clarification for existing disclosures on (i) level of disaggregation and (ii) inputs and valuation techniques. In addition, this guidance includes conforming amendments for employers’ disclosure of postretirement benefit plan assets. This guidance was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll-forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

3. Business Acquisitions
Prior to the reverse acquisition discussed herein, Aultra Gold Inc. was an exploration and mining company with certain claims and permits and limited operational activity.
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, on January 6, 2010 Dutch Gold Resources Inc. (Dutch Gold) acquired 6,442,500 shares of Aultra which comprised a 67% controlling interest in Aultra after giving effect to a 1 for 10 reverse stock split completed by Aultra just prior to the transaction. Dutch Gold issued one million shares of Dutch Gold’s common stock with a fair value at date of closing of $135,000 as consideration for the purchase.
On January 6, 2010, Dutch Gold also entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Aultra pursuant to which, Dutch Gold acquired all of Aultra’s assets which at the time consisted of mining property rights to several parcels in Montana, Nevada and Oregon. As consideration for these assets, Dutch Gold issued 9,614,667 shares of Dutch Gold common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to Aultra's shareholders at a total value of $1,297,980.
As a result of the January 6, 2010 transactions with Dutch Gold, Aultra was 67% owed by Dutch Gold, and was a publically traded company with no assets, approximately $900,000 in carry over liabilities and no means of generating any future revenues.
On March 26, 2010, Aultra Gold, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange with SGI. Pursuant to the agreement Aultra Gold, Inc. acquired all of the outstanding SGI shares from the SGI shareholders in exchange for an aggregate of 25,500,000 newly issued shares of Aultra’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share resulting in, SGI and its 99.9% owned subsidiary Shamika Gold Mining Sprl., a Congolese limited partnership became subsidiaries of Aultra. Aultra shares were issued to the SGI shareholders on a pro rata basis, on the basis of the shares held by such SGI shareholders at the time of the transaction. In addition, Aultra issued 23,547,067 shares of its common stock to various former Aultra Shareholders to satisfy certain liabilities at the time of the transaction in the amount of $301,000 and of this amount Dutch Gold receiving 4,950,000 shares. Upon completion of the transaction, there were 50,000,000 shares of Aultra outstanding including 952,933 shares retained by the former Aultra shareholders.
This transaction represents a reverse acquisition with SGI being the acquirer. The business purpose of this transaction was for SGI to be a publically traded company and have access to capital markets in the United States.
As Aultra had no operations subsequent to the Asset Purchase Agreement noted above, issuing shares that would result in SGI having a controlling interest allowed Aultra shareholders an exit strategy or way to get value.
As a result of the acquisition by SGI, Dutch Gold assumed the remaining Aultra liabilities of $616,154 which represents amounts owed to Ron Perttu at the time of the transaction.
At the effective time of the acquisition, Aultra’s board of directors and officers was reconstituted by the resignation of: Rauno Perttu from his role as President, Secretary and director, Daniel Hollis from his role as Chief Financial Officer and director, and the appointment of Robert Vivian as President and Chief Executive Officer and Terence Orstlan as Secretary and Director. Therefore, subsequent to the acquisition, Dutch Gold no longer has a controlling interest in Aultra.
Subsequent to the transaction, Aultra changed its name to Shamika 2 Gold, Inc and adopted the business plan of the Company.

Discontinued Operations
On January 13, 2010, Shamika Gold Mining SPRL, a subsidiary was contributed as initial capital to the Company. During 2010 the Company spent resources on permits to develop the Congo claims: the Lubutu project consists in 72 mining blocks controlled, covering 61 km2 located on lands in Lubutu, Pting the province of Maniema. This location is in the heart of the Kibara Metallogenic Belt approximately 300 kilometers northwest of Lake Kivu. The Poko project consists in an exploration permit located on lands in the Kilo-Moto Greenstone belt area in Congo’s Eastern region covering an area of 120 mining blocks and 101 km2
During the fourth quarter the Company reallocated its resources to find other projects and to focus efforts on the Cambodia project (see note 10), ceased expenditures and further, the Company decided to abandon its efforts on the Congo properties. There was no activity on the Congo properties subsequent to year-end. On April 6, 2011 the Company assigned all rights and interests in the assets and liabilities of Shamika Gold Mining SPRL to a related company, Shamika Congo Kahele SPRL. The Company has no continuing involvement in Shamika Gold Mining SPRL. As a result of the decision to abandon the Congo projects prior to the issuance of financial statements, the Company has accounted for the subsidiary disposal as discontinued operations as of December 31, 2010. The value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of Shamika Gold Mining SPRL was as follows:
No tax benefits were recorded on results of discontinued operations as realization of such does not meet recognition criteria.

7. Income Taxes
The Company had net operating loss carry-forwards available to offset future taxable income approximating $388,000 as of December 31, 2010. Such operating losses expire in 2030.
The Company has determined that realization of a deferred tax asset that has resulted from the net operating losses is not likely and therefore a full valuation allowance has been recorded against this deferred income tax asset. The deferred tax asset, which is fully reserved by a valuation allowance, approximates $130,000 as of December 31, 2010. There are no other material deferred tax positions recorded by the Company.
Total income tax expense (benefit) differed from the amounts computed by applying the U.S. Federal statutory tax rates to pre-tax loss for the period ending December 31, 2010 as follows:
We do not have an accrual for uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2010. If interest and penalties were to be assessed, we would charge interest to Interest Expense, and penalties to Other Operational Expense. It is not anticipated that unrecognized tax benefits would significantly increase or decrease within 12 months of the reporting date.

8. Convertible Note
The Company had a convertible promissory note outstanding at December 31, 2010 in the amount of $78,500. The note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum and matures September 16, 2011. The Company has the option to repay the note at a premium or to pay all outstanding principal and interest at maturity. If not repaid prior to or upon maturity, the note will automatically convert into common shares. Under the convertibility terms of the convertible promissory note, the principal, plus accrued interest can be converted at any time or upon maturity, at the option of the holder, either in whole, or in part, into fully paid common shares of the Company. The note contains a beneficial conversion feature which allows the holder of the note to convert the note into common shares of the Company at a price less than fair market value at date of conversion. The Company has computed and recorded a $56,845 value for the beneficial conversion feature pertaining to the convertible note. This amount is recorded as a discount to the principal amount of the note and is amortized to interest expense utilizing the straight-line method over the term of the related note as the results are not materially different from those which would result from the interest method. As of December 31, 2010, $53,526 in unamortized discount remained associated with the beneficial conversion feature. The effective interest rate on the debt for 2010 approximates 89%. During 2010, the Company recognized interest expense on the agreement of $4,594 which was comprised o $276 in contractual interest, $3,319 in amortization of the debt discount and $999 in amortization of the deferred financing costs.
9. Commitments
On December 20, 2010, the Company entered into the Montclerg Property- Property Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Lam Chan Tho (“Tho”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company will acquire all of the interests in certain mineral claims owned by Tho in consideration for five million shares of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and payment of a royalty of two and one half percent of the net smelter returns, as further described in the Agreement. This Agreement has not yet been finalized but is committed to close in 2011.
10. Subsequent Events
On January 3, 2011, the Company issued a Secured Convertible Note in the amount of $50,000 to Asher Enterprises Inc. due September 3, 2011 and bearing interest at the rate of 8% per annum.
