NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and Notes thereto together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2013. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to fairly state the financial position of the Company at September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, the results of its operations for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, and its cash flows for the six month periods ended September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012. In addition, some of the Company’s statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q may be considered forward-looking and involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact expected results. The results of operations for the three and six month period ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Chile Mining Technologies, Inc. (the “Company” or “Chile Mining” ), and its subsidiary Minera Licancabur S.A. (“Minera”) (99.99% owned by the Company). All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Organization

On May 12, 2010, the Company entered into and closed a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Minera, a Chilean company, and its shareholders, pursuant to which the Company acquired 99.9% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Minera in exchange for 6,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, which constituted 83.33% of the Company’s issued and outstanding capital stock on a fully-diluted basis as of and immediately after the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement and after giving effect to the Cancellation Agreement described below. The acquisition was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein Minera is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of the acquired entity have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), who is also one of the former shareholders of Minera, retained one share of Minera, constituting 0.1% of Minera’s issued and outstanding capital stock. The acquisition of Minera was structured to allow the CEO to retain one share of Minera in order to comply with Chilean legal requirements to have at least two record owners of its capital stock. Upon the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, the CEO entered into a nominee agreement with the Company pursuant to which he agreed to act as the record holder of such share, but agreed that all other rights to the share, including the right to receive distributions on the share, vote the share and be the beneficial owner of the share, rest in the Company.

As a condition precedent to the consummation of the Share Exchange Agreement, on May 12, 2010, the Company also entered into a cancellation agreement (the “Cancellation Agreement”) with Halter Financial Investments, LP (“HFI”) and Mr. Pierre Galoppi, the controlling stockholders, whereby HFI and Mr. Galoppi agreed to the cancellation of an aggregate of 3,600,500 shares of common stock owned by them.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS (Cont’d)

Private Placement Transaction

On May 12, 2010, the Company also completed a private placement transaction with a group of accredited investors. Pursuant to a securities purchase agreement that was entered into with the investors and Minera (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), the Company issued to the investors an aggregate of 2,089,593 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $5,809,000, or $2.78 per share, and warrants (the “Closing Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,044,803 shares of our common stock. The Closing Warrants have a term of four years, with an exercise price of $3.61 per share (subject to customary adjustments), are exercisable on a net exercise or cashless basis and are exercisable by investors at any time after the closing date.

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also agreed to certain “make good” provisions. Under the “make good” provisions, the Company issued additional warrants (the “Make Good Warrants”) to the investors to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,089,593 shares of its common stock, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, which will only become exercisable if the company does not meet certain financial performance targets in 2011 and 2012. The “make good” provisions established minimum net income thresholds of $14,382,102 and $15,179,687 for the 2011 and 2012 fiscal years, respectively. If, in a given fiscal year, 90% of the applicable minimum net income threshold is not met, such aggregate number of Make Good Warrants will become exercisable equal to the amount by which the Company’s actual net income is less than the applicable financial target, divided by the financial target, and multiplied by 2,089,593. In connection with the private placement, the Company also entered into (i) a registration rights agreement, pursuant to which the Company is obligated to register the shares of common stock issued to investors, including the shares of common stock underlying the warrants, within a pre-defined period and (ii) a closing escrow agreement, with Halter Financial Securities, Inc., as placement agent, and Securities Transfer Corporation, as escrow agent, for deposit of funds by the investors. The company also entered into lock-up agreements with each of its directors and officers, pursuant to which each of them agreed not to transfer any shares of capital stock held directly or indirectly by them for a one year period following the effective date of a registration statement covering the shares issued in connection with the private placement.

Convertible Promissory Note and Make Good Warrant

Halter Financial Group, L.P. (“HFG”) provided certain advisory services to the Company in connection with the acquisition of Minera and the private placement transaction described above. Pursuant to an advisory agreement that Minera entered into with HFG on April 16, 2009, HFG agreed to (a) advise Minera with regard to its desire to effect a combination transaction with a U.S. domiciled public shell corporation, (b) help Minera identify suitable investment bank(s) to act as placement agent for its contemplated private placement transactions and (c) counsel management on matters related to the operating a U.S. domiciled public company. Under the terms of the advisory agreement, HFG was entitled to receive a cash payment of $450,000 at the closing of the reverse acquisition of Minera. In lieu of such cash payment, HFG agreed to accept a cash payment of $260,000 and a promissory note issued by the Company in the principal amount of $190,000 that accrues simple annual interest at a rate of 3% per annum (the “HFG Note”). The HFG Note is due and payable on the sooner of the closing of our next equity financing (including the receipt of additional funds by the Company from any subsequent closing of the May 12 private placement) or the 180th day following the date of its issuance. In addition, at any time that the HFG Note remains outstanding, it may be converted at HFG’s option into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $2.78. At the closing, HFG was also issued a “Make Good” warrant, to purchase up to 985,104 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “HFG Make Good Warrant”). The terms of the HFG Make Good Warrant are identical to the terms of the Make Good Warrants issued to the investors in the private placement.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. This contemplates that assets will be realized and liabilities and commitments satisfied in the normal course of business.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS (Cont’d)

Going Concern

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $8,150,591 and has incurred a deficit of $18,903,423 for the cumulative period to September 30, 2013. On May 8, 2012, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Investors (i) up to $3.5 million of eleven percent (11%) secured convertible notes (the “Notes”) and warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock. The Notes and warrants were issued in two tranches. The first tranche issued on May 8, 2012 contained (i) Notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $2,120,000 and (ii) Investor Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 530,000 shares of Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,120,000. The second tranche issued on June 7, 2012 contained (i) Notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,015,000 and (ii) Investor Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 253,750 shares of Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,015,000.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2012, the Company raised and issued to an accredited investor $150,000 of eleven percent (11%) unsecured convertible note to purchase the Company’s common stock. In addition, on July 12, 2013, the Company raised and issued to an accredited investor $73,500 face value of eight percent (8%) secured convertible note. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the production of copper. Management has plans to seek additional capital through private placements and public offering of its capital stock. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Although there are no assurances that management's plans will be realized, management believes that the Company will be able to continue operations in the future. 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.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)-Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment (“ASU 2012-02”), to establish an optional two- step analysis for impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangibles other than goodwill. The standard is effective for financial statements of periods beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which requires entities to disclose additional information for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). For items reclassified out of AOCI and into net income in their entirety, entities are required to disclose the effect of the reclassification on each affected line item of net income. For AOCI reclassification items that are not reclassified in their entirety into net income, a cross reference to other required U.S. GAAP disclosures is required. This information may be provided either in the notes or parenthetically on the face of the statement that reports net income, provided that all the information is disclosed in a single location. However, an entity is prohibited from providing this information parenthetically on the face of the statement that reports net income, if it has items that are not reclassified in their entirety into net income. The guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-01, "Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities". This ASU clarifies that the scope of ASU No. 2011-11, "Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities." applies only to derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse purchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with specific criteria contained in FASB Accounting Standards Codification or subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In August 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-03, Technical Amendments and Corrections to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 114, Technical Amendments Pursuant to SEC Release No. 33-9250, and Corrections Related to FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-22 (SEC Update) in (“ASU 2012-03”). This update amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of SAB No. 114. The adoption of ASU 2012-03 is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In July 2013, the FASB amended its guidance related to the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits. The standard provides that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The guidance is to be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impacts of this guidance.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, "Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date." This ASU addresses the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of certain obligations resulting from joint and several arrangements including debt arrangements, other contractual obligations, and settled litigation and judicial rulings. This ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance.

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, "Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity." This ASU addresses the accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. The guidance outlines the events when cumulative translation adjustments should be released into net income and is intended by FASB to eliminate some disparity in current accounting practice. This ASU is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance.

CAPITAL STOCK (Cont’d)

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also agreed to certain “make good” provisions. Under the “make good” provisions, the Company issued additional warrants (the “Make Good Warrants”) to the investors to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,089,593 shares of its common stock, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, which will only become exercisable if the company does not meet certain financial performance targets in 2011 and 2012. The “make good” provisions established minimum net income thresholds of $14,382,102 and $15,179,687 for the 2011 and 2012 fiscal years, respectively. If, in a given fiscal year, 90% of the applicable minimum net income threshold is not met, such aggregate number of Make Good Warrants will become exercisable equal to the amount by which the Company’s actual net income is less than the applicable financial target, divided by the financial target, and multiplied by 2,089,593. Halter Financial Group, L.P. (“HFG”) provided certain advisory services to the Company in connection with the acquisition of Minera and the private placement transaction. At the closing, HFG was also issued a “Make Good” warrant, to purchase up to 985,104 shares of the Company's common stock (the “HFG Make Good Warrant”).

IMPAIRMENT OF MINING RIGHTS

The Company has expensed the mining rights, since the Company currently has no formal plan to exploit these mining rights.

8(a) DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Derivative financial instruments, as defined in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815-10-15-83 Derivatives and Hedging, consist of financial instruments or other contracts that contain a notional amount and one or more underlying (e.g. interest rate, security price or other variable), require no initial net investment and permit net settlement. Derivative financial instruments may be free-standing or embedded in other financial instruments. Further, derivative financial instruments are initially, and subsequently, measured at fair value and recorded as liabilities or, in rare instances, assets.

The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow, market or foreign-currency risks. However, the Company has entered into certain other financial instruments and contracts, such as secured convertible debenture and warrant financing arrangements that are either (i) not afforded equity classification or (ii) embody risks not clearly and closely related to host contracts. As required by ASC 815, these instruments are required to be carried as derivative liabilities, at fair value, in the financial statements.

At inception, warrants were classified as liabilities due to the fact that they were considered not to be indexed to the company's own stock and due to the firm registration rights embodied in the agreements. At March 31, 2012 all variability and rights resulting in liability classification were removed and the instruments were re-measured and reclassified to equity.

The following table summarizes the common shares indexed to the derivative instruments as of September 30, 2013 and inception of the instruments:

At March 31, 2012 all variability and rights resulting in liability classification were removed and the instruments were re-measured and reclassified to equity

8(b) MAY 2010 PRIVATE PLACEMENT

On May 12, 2010, the Company commenced a private placement of (i) 2,089,593 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $5,809,000, or $2.78 per share, (ii) Closing Warrants to purchase up to 1,044,803 shares of common stock, and (iii) Make Good Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,089,593 shares of common stock (the “May 2010 Private Placement). In connection with the May 2010 Private Placement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement related to the common stock and warrants that requires the Company to, among other things, file a Registration Statement within 65 days from the closing of the May 2010 Private Placement and achieve effectiveness as soon as possible , but in no event later than the 180th day following the Final Closing Date or the 5th trading day following the date on which the Company is notified that the initial Registration Statement will not be reviewed or is no longer subject to review and comments. The Registration Rights Agreement does not provide for an alternative or contain a penalty in the event the Company is unable to fulfill its requirements. As a result of the registration rights obligation to file within a specified period, which is presumed not to be within the Company’s control, the Company is required to classify the common stock outside of stockholders’ equity as redeemable common stock. At March 31, 2012 the Company reclassified these securities to permanent equity due to the fact that the registration requirement had been met.

8(b) MAY 2010 PRIVATE PLACEMENT (Cont’d)

The Closing warrants included in the May 2010 Private Placement are indexed to 1,044,803 shares of the Company’s common stock and may be exercised until the fourth anniversary of their issuance at an exercise price of $3.61 per share. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also agreed to issue Make Good warrants to investors to purchase up to an aggregate amount of 2,089,593 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share which became exercisable when the Company did not meet certain financial performance targets in 2011 and 2012. The “make good” provisions established minimum net income thresholds of $14,382,102 and $15,179,687 for the 2011 and 2012 fiscal years, respectively. If, in a given fiscal year 90% of the applicable minimum net income threshold was not met, such aggregate number of Make Good warrants became exercisable equal to the amount by which the Company’s actual net income was less than the applicable financial target, divided by the financial target, and multiplied by 50% of the total warrant shares underlying the warrant agreement. The Closing and Make Good warrants were evaluated under the guidance of ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities and Equity for purposes of their classification. Due to the Make Good warrants contingent exercise provisions, they did not meet the definition of “indexed to a Company’s own stock” and were required to be classified as liabilities and measured at inception and an ongoing basis at fair value. As of March 31, 2012 the Make Whole warrants were no longer contingently exercisable and the registration rights agreement had been fulfilled. Accordingly, at March 31, 2012, the warrants met the 8 conditions for equity classification provided in ASC 815-40 and were revalued and reclassified to equity.

The total basis in the financing was allocated first to derivative instruments, required to be classified as liabilities with the remaining basis being allocated to the common stock.

Amounts related to the warrants are recorded as deferred finance costs and amortized through charges to interest expense over the term of the arrangement using the effective interest method while amounts related to the common stock directly offset the carrying value of the redeemable common stock.

8(c) CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE AND MAKE GOOD WARRANT

HFG provided certain advisory services to the Company in connection with the acquisition of Minera and the May 2010 Private Placement. Pursuant to an advisory agreement that Minera entered into with HFG on April 16, 2009, HFG agreed to (a) advise Minera with regard to its desire to effect a combination transaction with a U.S. domiciled public shell corporation, (b) help Minera identify suitable investment bank(s) to act as placement agent for its contemplated private placement transactions and (c) counsel management on matters related to the operating a U.S. domiciled public company. Under the terms of the advisory agreement, HFG was entitled to receive a cash payment of $450,000 at the closing of the reverse acquisition of Minera. In lieu of such cash payment, HFG agreed to accept a cash payment of $260,000 and the HFG Note in the principal amount of $190,000 that accrues simple annual interest at a rate of 3% per annum. The HFG Note is due and payable on the sooner of the closing of the next equity financing (including the receipt of additional funds by the Company from any subsequent closing of the May 12 private placement) or the 180th day following the date of its issuance. In addition, at any time that the HFG Note remains outstanding, it may be converted at HFG’s option into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $2.78.

The Company has evaluated the terms and conditions of the HFG Note under the guidance of ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The embedded conversion feature (“ECF”) is an equity-linked feature that is not clearly and closely related to the risks of the host debt instrument. However, current accounting standards afforded an exemption to bifurcation of the ECF because it is both indexed to the Company’s own stock and otherwise met the definition of Conventional Convertible based upon the fixed conversion price.

At the closing, the Company had also issued to HFG the HFG Make Good Warrant for the purchase of up to 985,104 shares of common stock. The terms of the HFG Make Good Warrant are identical to the terms of the Make Good Warrants issued to the investors in the private placement and accordingly, they did not meet the definition of “indexed to a Company’s own stock” and were required to be classified as liabilities and measured at inception and an ongoing basis at fair value. As of December 31, 2012, HFG had exercised warrants for 492,552 common shares.

The fair value of the HFG Note was estimated based upon the present value of its future cash flows, using credit risk adjusted rates, as enhanced by the fair value of the ECF. Since the Company does not have an established credit rating, the credit risk adjusted yield of 15.51% was determined by reference to comparable instruments in public markets and industry-specific risk. The fair value of the ECF was determined using the Monte Carlo Simulation (“MCS”). MCS is an option-based model that embodies assumptions that would likely be considered by market participants who trade the financial instrument. In addition to more traditional assumptions, such as stock price, trading volatilities and risk-free rates, MCS assumptions include credit risk, interest risk and redemption considerations. Significant assumptions included in the MSC valuation technique were as follows:

    Assumption  
Linked common shares   68,345  
Stock price $  2.78  
Expected life (years)   4.00  
Volatility (based on peers)   58.24%- 63.55%  
Risk adjusted yield   15.51%- 16.94%  
Risk adjusted interest rate   1.52%- 1.65%

The advisory fee expense was determined based upon the fair value of the HFG Note and the HFG Make Good Warrants. In accordance with APB 14, the premium on the HFG Note, representing the difference between the fair value and the face value of the note, was recorded to additional paid in capital.

On May 8, 2012, the Company also entered into Loan Repayment Agreements (the “Repayment Agreements”) with HFG (“Lender”). Pursuant to the Repayment Agreements, Lender agreed that the Company is entitled to defer payment, and the Lender shall not demand payment, of any amounts due under certain loans made by the Lender to the Company, and the Lender shall not commence the exercise of any remedies it may have against the Company or any of its assets arising out of the Company’s breach of its obligations under the loans until the later of: (i) twelve (12) months from the date of closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) such time as the Company reports positive net income in quarterly or annual financial statements filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the deferment shall be operative only so long as any notes remain outstanding.

The following table illustrates the initial allocation:

    Initial  
    Allocation  
Convertible Promissory Note $  190,000  
Make Good warrants   62,176  
Additional paid in capital   13,835

Fair value Disclosures:

ASC 820, Fair value Measurements and Disclosures, provides requirements for disclosure of liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to the initial recognition. Financial instruments arising from the May 2010 Private Placement that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are (i) the investor warrants, (ii) the broker warrants, (iii) the credit facility warrants and (iii) Make Good warrants, respectively.

The warrants were valued using the Lattice technique, and the Company estimated (i the volatility, based upon a reasonable peer group, (iii) the risk free rate as the published rate for zero coupon government securities with terms consistent with the contractual term.

Fair value hierarchy:

(1)

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, or derived there from. The Company used its trading market price as of March 31, 2012 as input into the model which is a Level 1 input.

(2)

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable. The Binomial Lattice model provides for multiple assumptions related to volatility and risk free rate over the remaining term of the warrants. The equivalents or averages of these assumptions are also provided above. The Company uses the current published yields for zero- coupon US Treasury Securities for its risk free rate. The Company did not have a historical trading history sufficient to develop an internal volatility rate for use in the Binomial Lattice model. As a result, the Company has used a peer approach wherein the historical trading volatilities of certain companies with similar characteristics and who had a sufficient trading history were used as an estimate of the Company’s volatility. In developing this model, no one company was weighted more heavily.

(3)

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs. Inputs for which any parts are Level 3 inputs are classified as Level 3 in their entirety. The remaining term used equals the remaining contractual term as our best estimate of the expected term. The probability-weighted outcomes of achieving the performance conditions are also a Level 3 input.

Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of the Company’s common stock, which has a high estimated volatility. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income will reflect the volatility in these estimate and assumption changes.

The following tables summarize the effects on the Company’s income (loss) associated with changes in the fair values of the derivative financial instruments for the year ended March 31 2012:

May 2010 Private Placement:      
       Investor warrants $  468,072  
       Broker warrants   84,251

SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES


$3,135,000 Face Value Secured Convertible Notes, due May 8, 2017 $  1,752,672  

On May 8, 2012, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Investors (i) up to $3.5 million of eleven percent (11%) secured convertible notes (the “Notes”) and warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock. The Notes and warrants were issued in two tranches. The first tranche issued on May 8, 2012 contained (i) Notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $2,120,000 and (ii) Investor Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 530,000 shares of Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,120,000. The second tranche issued on June 7, 2012 contained (i) Notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,015,000 and (ii) Investor Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 253,750 shares of Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,015,000. The notes are payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, with the first payment due on September 30, 2012. The Notes mature on May 8, 2017. The notes are convertible at the option of the holder at any time on or prior to the Maturity Date into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $2.00 per share (subject to appropriate adjustments for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction after the issuance date). The Investor Warrants have a strike price of $2.00 per share (subject to appropriate adjustments for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction after the issuance date). The Investor Warrants are immediately exercisable, on a net exercise or cashless basis, and have a term of five years.

The Company has evaluated the terms and conditions of the convertible notes and warrants under the guidance of ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The conversion features meet the definition of conventional convertible for purposes of applying the conventional convertible exemption. The definition of conventional contemplates a limitation on the number of shares issuable under the arrangement. The notes are convertible into a fixed number of shares and there are no down round protection features contained in the contracts. Since the convertible notes achieved the conventional convertible exemption, the Company was required to consider whether the hybrid contracts embody a beneficial conversion feature. A beneficial conversion feature is present when the fair value of the underlying common share exceeds the effective conversion price of the conversion option. The effective conversion price is calculated as the basis in the financing arrangement allocated to the hybrid convertible debt agreement, divided by the number of shares into which the instrument is indexed. As a result of this evaluation under the aforementioned standards, the Company concluded that a beneficial conversion feature was present in the amount of $1,024,247 in the $3,135,000 face value convertible note. The warrants did not contain any terms or feature that would preclude equity classification.

The purchase price allocation for the convertible notes resulted in a debt discount of $1,734,994. The discount on the notes will be amortized through periodic charges to interest expense over the term of the debenture using the effective interest method. Amortization of debt discount amounted to $133,608 during the six month period ended September 30, 2013. In addition, amortization of deferred finance charges amounted to $61,910 for the six month period ended September 30, 2013, resulting in balance of $441,786 as of September 30, 2013. The purchase price allocation is as follows:

          Inception  
Gross proceeds       $  3,135,000  
Less: Financing costs       $ 614,394  
Net proceeds       $  2,520,606  
Allocated as follows:            
Carrying value (fair value of debt component)         (1,400,006 )
Paid in capital (warrants) $  (710,747 )

9(b) UNSECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES

On December 13, 2012, CMT consummated a private placement financing with a group of accredited investors for an aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $150,000 In connection with the financing, the Company issued to investors unsecured convertible notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $150,000. The convertible notes have a five year term, carry an interest rate of 11% per annum, and are convertible into the Company’s common stock at $2.00 per share. Net proceeds from the offering are expected to be used for general corporate purposes and working capital.

9(c) SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTE

As of September 30, 2013, the estimated fair value of our convertible promissory notes is as follows:

Convertible Notes   September 30, 2013  
$ 73,500 face value convertible note due March 17, 2014 $  100,415  

On July 12, 2013, the Company issued a $73,500 8% convertible note with a term to March 17, 2014 (the “Maturity Date”). The principal amount of the note and interest is payable on the maturity date. The note is convertible into common stock beginning six months after the issuance date, at the holder’s option, at a 58% discount to the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the common stock during the 10 trading day period prior to conversion. In the event the Company prepays the note in full, the Company is required to pay off all principal, interest and any other amounts owing multiplied by (i) 110% if prepaid during the period commencing on the closing date through 30 days thereafter, (ii) 115% if prepaid 31 days following the closing through 60 days following the closing, (iii) 120% if prepaid 61 days following the closing through 90 days following the closing, (iv) 125% if prepaid 91 days following the closing through 120 days following the closing, (v) 130% if prepaid 121 days following the closing through 150 days following the closing, and (vi) 135% if prepaid 151 days following the closing through 180 days following the closing. The terms of the convertible note provide for certain redemption features which include features indexed to equity risks. In the event of default, the amount of principal and interest not paid when due bear interest at the rate of 22% per annum and the note becomes immediately due and payable. Should that occur the Company is liable to pay the holder 150% of the then outstanding principal and interest (the “default put”).

The Company has evaluated the terms and conditions of the convertible note under the guidance of ASC 815. The conversion feature did not meet the definition of “indexed to a company’s own stock” provided for in ASC 815 due to the down round protection feature. Therefore, the conversion feature requires bifurcation and liability classification. Additionally, the default put requires bifurcation because it is indexed to risks that are not associated with credit or interest risk. As a result, the compound embedded derivative comprises of (i) the embedded conversion feature and (i) the default put. Rather than bifurcating and recording the compound embedded derivative as a derivative liability, the Company

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, based on the funds available to the Company, in order to maintain its daily operations. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management to sustain the future development of the business.

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. The Company upon approval from its Board of Directors will balance its overall capital structure through new share issues or by undertaking other activities as deemed appropriate under the specific circumstances. As such, the Company is dependent on external financing to fund its daily operations. In order to procure materials and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed.

Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the foregoing paragraph and the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.

There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the period ended September 30, 2013

12.

INVENTORY

The quantity of material in ore on the leach pad is based on surveyed volumes of mined material. Sampling and assaying determine the estimated amount of copper contained in material delivered to the leach pad. As at March 31, 2013 there was only supply inventory ($nil as of September 30, 2013).

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK FACTORS

The fair value of a financial instrument is the estimated amount that the Company would receive or pay to settle the financial assets and financial liabilities as at the balance sheet date. The book value of sundry assets and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and due to related party approximate fair values at the balance sheet dates.

The fair value of the long-term debt has been estimated by discounting future cash flows at a rate offered for debt of similar maturities and credit quality.

All financial instruments except for derivative financial instruments and cash and cash equivalent are classified as level 3. Both cash and cash equivalents and derivative financial instruments are classified as level 1.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK FACTORS (Cont’d)

Interest rate risk

The company’s exposure to interest rate fluctuations is not significant.

Credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of amounts receivable. The Company is not exposed to material losses on its accounts receivable and future revenues.

Commodity price risk

The ability of the Company to develop its properties and the future profitability of the Company is directly related to the market price of certain minerals. The Company does not currently use derivative financial instruments to reduce its exposure to commodity price risk.

Liquidity risk

The Company’s exposure to liquidity risk is dependent on the collection of amounts receivable and the ability to raise funds to meet purchase commitments and to sustain operations. The company controls its liquidity risk by managing working capital and cash flows.

Foreign currency risk

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk as substantially all of the Company’s cash is denominated in Chilean Pesos. This risk is partially mitigated by the fact that a significant portion of the costs associated with the mining claims and deferred exploration expenditures are incurred in Chilean Pesos.

RESTRICTED CASH

On May 8, 2012, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Investors (i) up to $3.5 million of eleven percent (11%) secured convertible notes (the “Notes”), which mature on the five year anniversary of the date of issuance and shall be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at $2.00 per share (subject to adjustment) and (ii) warrants (the “Investor Warrants,” and together with the Notes, the “Securities”) to purchase such number of shares of Common Stock equal to fifty percent (50%) of the number of shares of Common Stock that the Notes purchased by the Investors may be convertible into, at an exercise price of $2.00 per share (subject to adjustment).

On May 8, 2012, the Company completed an initial closing pursuant to the Purchase Agreement in which the Company sold and issued to Investors (i) Notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $2,120,000 and (ii) Investor Warrants to initially purchase an aggregate of 530,000 shares of Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,120,000.

On June 7, 2012, the Company completed its second and final closing pursuant to the Purchase Agreement in which the Company sold and issued to investors (i) Notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,015,000 and (ii) investor Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 507,500 shares of Common Stock, for an aggregate gross proceeds of $1,015,000.

As a result of the two closings, the Company sold and issued to investors a total amount of $3,135,000 in notes and warrants to purchase a total of 1,037,500 shares of Common Stock. In accordance with these agreements, the Company must keep the equivalent of one year worth of interest payments in an escrow account at all times. As interest payments become due, the Company must continually maintain one year’s worth of payments in the escrow account and as such cannot use this for any other purpose. As of September 30, 2013, the Company was in default of the restricted cash balance required from this agreement. The Company plans to replenish the account in the third quarter of the current fiscal year.

Overview

We are a mineral extraction company based in the Republic of Chile, with copper as our principal “pay metal.” Our founders, Messrs. Jorge Osvaldo Orellana Orellana and Jorge Fernando Pizarro Arriagada, have refined the electrowin process in a way that permits it to be used at a relatively small mine and/or tailings sites. Electrowinning is a process in which positive and negative electrodes are placed in an acidic solution containing copper ions, and an electric current passed through the solution causes the copper to be deposited on the negative electrodes so that it can be collected. We have obtained rights to conduct our mineral extraction operations at several sites in and around the Coquimbo region, which is located in north-central Chile, approximately 400 kilometers north of Santiago. While these sites each have their own mineral deposits, we will procure the majority of our source material from non-traditional sources, including tailings, ore, or a combination thereof, by purchasing rights to such source material at smaller sites, where it is not economical for larger open-pit mining companies to operate, due largely to the transportation costs associated with moving source materials to fixed processing sites.

By utilizing Minimum Intrusion Non-traditional Input, or MINI, plants, we are able to build scalable, less expensive plants closer to source material deposits, thereby resulting in significant processing savings. In addition, since smaller sites generally require higher copper prices, due to transportation costs, to operate profitably, these deposits can currently be purchased at a discount. By utilizing this strategy, we are able to reduce costs and operate profitably with smaller deposits.

25


The initial design capacity of each MINI plant is between approximately 1,200 and 2,000 metric tons of annual copper cathode output. Each MINI plant can be expanded on a modular basis in increments of 1,500 metric tons. We believe that the installed cost for a new 1,500 metric ton MINI plant, with the ability to produce tailings, at the average location, is about $3,000,000, or $2,000 per metric ton of annual capacity. Expanding the capacity of an existing MINI plant will cost between $400 and $800 per metric ton, depending on the site. Once the available source material deposits at and around the site of an existing MINI plant have been depleted, we anticipate that we can recover up to 70% of the cost of constructing a new MINI plant by relocating the support structures and processing equipment from the original MINI plant.

By reducing unit costs and carefully managing the average source material grade, we estimate that the MINI plant technology will allow us to break even at copper prices as low as US$1.00 per pound, or US$2,204 per metric ton. As of November 12, 2013, copper was trading at $7,123.50 per metric ton on the London Metals Exchange, or LME. As the price of finished copper has increased, however, there has been increased interest in raw copper ore from a number of “higher cost” producers that can increase their production volumes by buying ore in the market from small miners. Historically, these producers would not have been interested in raw ore purchases, as they could not generate profits at lower finished copper prices. However the increase in finished copper prices has made third-party purchase attractive for a number of additional producers. While the additional producers entering the market for minerals has not had an effect on the cost of the ore, it has put the miners into a stronger negotiating position on the sales of their ore. As such, the market now demands that producers must purchase the ore by providing payment upon delivery of the ore, as opposed to the historical practice of providing payment following the sale of the finished copper. This shift in the market has affected our need for working capital substantially, in that we now require approximately $1 million per MINI plant to purchase enough ore to operate at full capacity.

Initially, we plan to sell our copper cathodes to Madeco, the largest cable producer in Chile. Based on our discussions with Madeco, we expect that the selling price will be at a 3% discount from the price for copper, adjusted for purity, on the LME. We expect that sales will be made under purchase orders where cash will be paid upon delivery. We anticipate that this arrangement will provide us with immediate cash flow with which we will use to fund our current operations. In the future, as business volume grows, we may elect to sell our copper cathodes at the generally higher prices prevailing on the LME.

Since our inception on January 2, 2008, we have focused our activities on acquiring mineral rights and sites on which to construct our MINI plants. Since starting construction in the fall of 2008, we have successfully completed our first scalable MINI plant, designated as the Ana Maria plant, located about 30 kilometers northeast of the town of Illapel, in the mining district of Matancilla. We have been testing the production of copper cathodes at the Ana Maria plant since late April 2009. In July 2009, we produced our first commercial run of copper cathodes.

We commenced operations at the Ana Maria plant in July 2009. The Ana Maria plant was taken off-line the first week of May 2010 in order to increase the capacity of this facility. As a result, the total capacity of the Ana Maria plant increased from 120 metric tons per month to 180 metric tons per month, effectively increasing its capacity by 50%. We resumed operations at the plant with the additional capacity in place at the beginning of August 2010. We believe that the site can be progressively expanded to about 5,000 metric tons per annum on a modular basis in increments of 500 to 1,000 metric tons, subject to the market price for copper and the grade and quantity of source materials available to be processed. In addition, we are also further enhancing our electrowin-based recovery techniques to reduce costs and improve the yield of the copper out of the mineral spectrum.

Our second plant, Santa Filomena, is approximately 75% complete as of the date of this report, and we have also begun preparatory work at one additional site we have under our control, in anticipation of the construction of additional MINI plants over the next 18 to 24 months.

The table below summarizes the capacity of each of our current and planned MINI plants.

District Plant Initial Production Initial Capacity/Year
Matancilla Ana Maria Operating 1,200 MT (1)
Salamanca Santa Filomena 1st Calendar Quarter 2014 1,200 MT
Combarbala Gabriella 2nd Calendar Quarter 2014 1,200 MT

(1) Since we commenced operations at the Ana Maria plant, total annual capacity has been increased to 2,225 metric tons. To date, the majority of our capital expenditures have been used for the construction of our facilities.

Sales. We had sales on $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared with sales of $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2012. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we had just raised capital and were working on repair and maintenance at our Ana Maria plant in order to resume production. As a result, we had not begun to generate revenues at this time. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had minimal working capital and as a result was not able to produce any revenue.

Cost of sales. Cost of sales includes direct costs associated with the sale of our products. Cost of sales was $205,434 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared with $258,183 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of 20%. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we were working to resume and increase copper production at the Ana Maria plant. In addition, we also developed several mines in order to deliver mineral to the plant during the quarter. Due to our capital infusion coming in the middle of the quarter ended June 30, 2012, our cost of sales expenses were limited by the timing. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, we were operating with limited working capital, which resulted in limited cost of sales expenses.

Gross loss. Gross loss is equal to the difference between our sales and the cost of sales. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, we had a gross loss of $205,434, as compared with a gross loss of $258,183 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in gross loss was primarily due to the factors discussed above.

Operating expenses. Our operating expenses consist of impairment of mining rights, salaries and wages, general and administrative expenses and professional fees.

27


Impairment of mining rights. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, impairment of mining rights was $nil, as compared with $1,592 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. We have expensed mining rights because we currently have no formal plans to exploit these mining rights.

Salaries and wages. Salaries and wages amounted to $54,083 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $67,159 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, an decrease of 20%. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012 the Company had completed a recent capital raise and was beginning to grow the Company to support copper production. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 the Company operated with limited resources and as a result, it maintained a smaller staff, and minimized salaries and wages wherever possible.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of building maintenance and repairs, energy costs, and general expenses. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013, were $185,997, as compared with $393,318 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of 53%. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012 the Company had completed a recent capital raise and was beginning to grow the Company to support copper production. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company operated with limited resources and worked to minimize general and administrative expenses.

Professional fees. Professional fees consist of legal fees, accounting fees and other fees associated with our operations as a public company. For the three months ended June 30, 2013, professional fees were $16,760, as compared with $76,200 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, a decrease of 78%. It is necessary to hire specialized professionals at times to complete tasks outside of the Company’s current expertise. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, the Company was growing to support the planned production of copper which required more specialized assistance. During the quarter ended September 30, 2013, the Company operated with limited resources and as a result limited all professional fees during the quarter.

Amortization of deferred finance costs. On May 12, 2010, we consummated a private placement of common shares, warrants and make good warrants. The direct financing costs were allocated to the financial instruments (redeemable common stock and warrants), based upon their relative fair values. Amounts related to the warrants were recorded as deferred finance costs and amortized through charges to interest expense over the term of the arrangement using the effective interest method, while amounts related to the common stock directly offset the carrying value of the redeemable common stock. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, we amortized deferred finance costs of $nil, as compared to $27,275 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

On May 8, 2012, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors for the sale and issuance of eleven percent (11%) secured convertible notes and warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock. The Company evaluated the terms and conditions of the convertible notes and warrants under the guidance of ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The financing costs are being amortized over the term of the notes. Amortization of the deferred finance charges amounted to $30,955 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, and $30,955 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Fair value adjustment relating to convertible debt. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, we had $26,915 fair value adjustment to convertible debt, as compared to $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2012. On July 12, 2013, the Company issued an 8% convertible note in principal amount of $73,500 with a term to March 17, 2014 (the “Maturity Date”). The principal amount of the note and interest is payable on the maturity date. The note is convertible into common stock beginning six months after the issuance date, at the holder’s option, at a 58% discount to the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the common stock during the 10 trading day period prior to conversion. In the event the Company prepays the note in full, the Company is required to pay off all principal, interest and any other amounts owing multiplied by (i) 110% if prepaid during the period commencing on the closing date through 30 days thereafter, (ii) 115% if prepaid 31 days following the closing through 60 days following the closing, (iii) 120% if prepaid 61 days following the closing through 90 days following the closing, (iv) 125% if prepaid 91 days following the closing through 120 days following the closing, (v) 130% if prepaid 121 days following the closing through 150 days following the closing, and (vi) 135% if prepaid 151 days following the closing through 180 days following the closing. The terms of the convertible note provide for certain redemption features which include features indexed to equity risks. In the event of default, the amount of principal and interest not paid when due bear interest at the rate of 22% per annum and the note becomes immediately due and payable. Should that occur, the Company is liable to pay the holder 150% of the then outstanding principal and interest.

28


Imputed interest expense. Imputed interest expense is related to unsecured, no interest promissory notes from related parties . These loans were valued at fair value at inception. We recognized a discount on the face value of the loans at inception to adjust the carrying value to the fair value. Discounts associated with these notes are being amortized over the lives of the promissory notes using the effective interest method, with interest expense being recorded as an expense in the related period. We recognized interest expense to amortize discounts on promissory notes to related parties for the three months ended September 30, 2013, in the amount of $77,000, as compared with $78,714 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

The Company has evaluated the terms and conditions of the convertible notes and warrants under the guidance of ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The conversion features meet the definition of conventional convertible for purposes of applying the conventional convertible exemption. The definition of conventional contemplates a limitation on the number of shares issuable under the arrangement. The notes are convertible into a fixed number of shares and there are no down round protection features contained in the contracts. Since the convertible notes achieved the conventional convertible exemption, the Company was required to consider whether the hybrid contracts embody a beneficial conversion feature. A beneficial conversion feature is present when the fair value of the underlying common share exceeds the effective conversion price of the conversion option. The effective conversion price is calculated as the basis in the financing arrangement allocated to the hybrid convertible debt agreement, divided by the number of shares into which the instrument is indexed. As a result of this evaluation under the aforementioned standards, the Company concluded that a beneficial conversion feature was present in the amount of $1,024,247 in the $3,135,000 face value convertible note. The warrants did not contain any terms or feature that would preclude equity classification. The purchase price allocation for the convertible notes resulted in a debt discount of $1,734,994. The discount on the notes will be amortized through periodic charges to interest expense over the term of the debenture using the effective interest method. Amortization of debt discount amounted to $68,128 during the three months ended September 30, 2013 ($45,604 for September 30, 2012)

Net loss. As a result of the cumulative effect of the foregoing factors, we generated a net loss of $665,272 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to a net loss of $979,000 for three months ended September 30, 2013.

Sales. We had sales of $50,326 for the six months ended September 30, 2012, as compared with sales of $34,829 for the six months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of 45%. During the six months ended September 30, 2013, we were operating with limited resources and were only able to generate production at the beginning of this period. During the six months ended September 30, 2012, the Company completed a capital raise and was in the process of upgrading its Ana Maria plant to begin producing copper. As a result, the Company had limited production during this period.

29


Cost of sales. Cost of sales includes direct costs associated with the sale of our products. Cost of sales was $531,213 for the six months ended September 30, 2013, as compared with $656,563 for the six months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of 19%. During the six months ended September 30, 2012, we continued to prepare our plant to begin producing copper and were able to process our first sales. As a result we incurred costs for supplies, the preparation and upgrades to the Ana Maria plant and extracting ore from the mines and delivering this to the plant. During the six months ended September 30, 2013, the Ana Maria plant was operating at limited capacities and we incurred costs associated with operating and maintaining the plant at this level.

Gross loss. Gross loss is equal to the difference between our sales and the cost of sales. For the six months ended September 30, 2013, we had a gross loss of $480,887, as compared with a gross loss of $621,563 for the six months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in gross loss was primarily due to the decrease of cost of sales as discussed above.

Operating expenses. Our operating expenses consist of impairment of mining rights, salaries and wages, general and administrative expenses and professional fees.

Impairment of mining rights. For the six months ended September 30, 2013, impairment of mining rights was $2,922, as compared with $5,120 for the six months ended September 30, 2012. We have expensed mining rights, since we currently have no formal plans to exploit these mining rights.

Salaries and wages. Salaries and wages amounted to $112,393 for the six months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $89,853 for the six months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of 25%. After completing our private placement in the June 2012 quarter, we began growing the Company as required to support the production of copper, but because of the timing of the raise late in the first fiscal quarter, we incurred less salaries and wages than normal. During the six months ended September 30, 2013, we operated with limited capacity over the two quarters, which resulted in a slight increase in salaries and wages even with limited production.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of building maintenance and repairs, energy costs and general expenses. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2013, were $470,023, as compared with $890,975 for the six months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of 47%. This decrease is the result of growing the Company to support the production of copper. During the six months ended September 30, 2013, the Company was operating with limited resources and as a result minimized general and administrative expenses wherever possible. During the six months ended September 30, 2012, the Company was preparing to support the production of copper, which required an expansion of general and administrative expenses.

Professional fees. Professional fees consist of legal fees, accounting fees and other fees associated with our operations as a public company. For the six months ended September 30, 2013, professional fees were $108,500, as compared with $274,200 for the six months ended September 30, 2012. This decrease was due to the fact that during the six months ended September 30, 2013 the Company was operating with limited resources and minimized professional fees wherever possible. During the six months ended September 30, 2012 the Company closed fund raises on May 8, 2012 and June 7, 2012. In preparing for the fund raises the Company’s public company expenses increased significantly in order to ensure its filings were complete and up to date. In addition, the Company uses outside contractors for specialized services where necessary. In raising funds and completing all of our reporting requirements, we incurred significantly increased professional fees.

Amortization of deferred finance costs. On May 12, 2010, we consummated a private placement of common shares, warrants and make good warrants. The direct financing costs were allocated to the financial instruments (redeemable common stock and warrants), based upon their relative fair values. Amounts related to the warrants were recorded as deferred finance costs and amortized through charges to interest expense over the term of the arrangement using the effective interest method, while amounts related to the common stock directly offset the carrying value of the redeemable common stock. For the six months ended September 30, 2013, we amortized deferred finance costs of $nil, as compared to $54,550 for the six months ended September 30, 2012.

On May 8, 2012, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors for the sale and issuance of eleven percent (11%) secured convertible notes and warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock.

30


The Company evaluated the terms and conditions of the convertible notes and warrants under the guidance of ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The financing costs are being amortized over the term of the notes. Amortization of the deferred finance charges amounted to $61,910 for the six months ended September 30, 2013 and $48,788 for the six months ended September 30, 2012.

Fair value adjustment relating to convertible debt. For the six months ended September 30, 2013, we had $26,915 fair value adjustment to warrants, as compared to $nil for the six months ended September 30, 2012. On July 12, 2013, the Company issued a 8% convertible note in principal amount of $73,500 with a term to March 17, 2014 (the “Maturity Date”). The principal amount of the note and interest is payable on the maturity date. The note is convertible into common stock beginning six months after the issuance date, at the holder’s option, at a 58% discount to the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the common stock during the 10 trading day period prior to conversion. In the event the Company prepays the note in full, the Company is required to pay off all principal, interest and any other amounts owing multiplied by (i) 110% if prepaid during the period commencing on the closing date through 30 days thereafter, (ii) 115% if prepaid 31 days following the closing through 60 days following the closing, (iii) 120% if prepaid 61 days following the closing through 90 days following the closing, (iv) 125% if prepaid 91 days following the closing through 120 days following the closing, (v) 130% if prepaid 121 days following the closing through 150 days following the closing, and (vi) 135% if prepaid 151 days following the closing through 180 days following the closing. The terms of the convertible note provide for certain redemption features which include features indexed to equity risks. In the event of default, the amount of principal and interest not paid when due bear interest at the rate of 22% per annum and the note becomes immediately due and payable. Should that occur, the Company is liable to pay the holder 150% of the then outstanding principal and interest.

Imputed interest expense. Imputed interest expense is related to unsecured, no interest promissory notes from related parties. These loans were valued at fair value at inception. We recognized a discount on the face value of the loans at inception to adjust the carrying value to the fair value. Discounts associated with these notes are being amortized over the lives of the promissory notes using the effective interest method, with interest expense being recorded as an expense in the related period. We recognized interest expense to amortize discounts on promissory notes to related parties for the six months ended September 30, 2013, in the amount of $77,000, as compared with $155,277 for the six months ended September 30, 2012.

On May 8, 2012, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors for the sale and issuance of eleven percent (11%) secured convertible notes and warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock. The Company evaluated the terms and conditions of the convertible notes and warrants under the guidance of ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The purchase price allocation for the convertible notes resulted in a debt discount of $1,143,154. The discount on the notes will be amortized through periodic changes to interest expense over the term of the debenture using the effective interest method. Imputed interest expense amounted to $133,608 during the six month period ended September 30, 2013 and $75,446 during the six months ended September 30, 2012.

Net loss. As a result of the cumulative effect of the foregoing factors, we generated a net loss of $1,474,218 for the six months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to a net loss of $2,215,772 for six months ended September 30, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2013, we had cash of $1,065 and had a working capital deficit of $8,150,591. The following table provides detailed information about our net cash flow for the periods indicated.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $729,840 for the six months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $2,252,597 for the same period in 2012. The decrease during the six month period ended September 30, 2013, was mainly due to the decreased net loss, decreased imputed interest expense as well as the increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company was operating with limited capital, whereas during the prior period the Company had received additional capital and was working to resume production.

Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $325,818 for the six months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to net cash used of $1,959,260 for the same period in 2012. This decrease was due to the increase in restricted cash and the decrease in acquisition of property plant and equipment during the six months ended September 30, 2013.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $446,527 for the six months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $4,200,955 for the same period in 2012. This decrease was mainly due to the proceeds from our capital leasing and the private placement completed in the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

In the first fiscal quarter of 2013, we completed a private placement in which we sold and issued to certain accredited investors (i) eleven percent (11%) secured convertible notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $3,135,000, which notes are convertible into shares our common stock at $2.00 per share (subject to adjustment) and (ii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 783,750 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share (subject to adjustment). As a result of this private placement, we raised approximately $3.1 million in gross proceeds, which left us with approximately $2.6 million in net proceeds after the deduction of offering expenses.

Overall Liquidity and Capital Resources

Through the course of our operations we have determined that our MINI plants which process tailings will now require an additional module at a cost of $500,000 in order to more efficiently process the tailings. Accordingly, the total cost of construction per such MINI plant has increased from our initial estimates of $2,500,000 to approximately $3,000,000. In addition there has been a significant increase in demand for raw copper ore. As a result, the market now demands that any producer must purchase the ore by providing payment at the delivery of the ore, and therefore, we now require approximately $500,000 per MINI plant to purchase enough ore to operate at full capacity.

Initially, we estimated that it would cost approximately $2,500,000 in working capital per plant to construct and operate the plant to capacity. However, as discussed above, we now require approximately $3,500,000 in working capital per MINI plant in order to construct and operate the plant to capacity.

As discussed above, in May and June 2012 we raised $3,135,000 in a private placement transaction. Approximately $1.25 million of the proceeds of the transaction were used for upgrades to our Ana Maria facilities and attempting to secure sources of mineral for our plants for the future, with the remaining proceeds used for working capital and transaction expenses, including interest payments due on the convertible notes sold in the transaction. In order to operate our existing facilities at full capacity we will require additional funding, primarily for the procurement of raw minerals.

Obligations under Material Contracts

As of September 30, 2013, there were outstanding loans made to the Company in the aggregate amount of $5,160,583. On May 8, 2012, we and certain creditors which had loaned us an aggregate of approximately $4,267,774 entered into separate loan repayment agreements whereby the creditors each agreed to allow us to defer repayment of their respective loans until the later of (i) May 8, 2013, and (ii) such time as we report positive net-income on our quarterly or annual financial statements filed with the SEC.

The following table lists the loans which will be deferred in accordance with the loan repayment agreements:

Creditor   Amount of Loan(s) Deferred  
Jorge Fernando Pizarro Arriagada   CLP$104,579,970  
Iván Orlando Vergara Huerta   CLP$165,770,750  
Jorge Orellana   CLP$103,985,073  
Geominco E.I.R.L   CLP$1,409,005,176

Inflation

Inflation does not materially affect our business or the results of our operations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to our stockholders.

Seasonality

The price of copper on the LME fluctuates during the year, with prices tending to be stronger in the April to September period, and weaker in the October to March period, subject to global supply and demand.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those we believe are most important to portraying our financial conditions and results of operations and also require the greatest amount of subjective or complex judgments by management. Judgments and uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under various conditions or using different assumptions. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act).

As required by Rule 13a-15(e), our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Jorge Osvaldo Orellana Orellana, and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Gerard Pascale, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2013. Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, Messrs. Orellana and Pascale, determined that because of the material weaknesses described in Item 9A “Controls and Procedures” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, which we were still in the process of remediating as of September 30, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. See Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, for the description of these weaknesses.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.

During its evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2013, our management identified material weaknesses related to our need to increase our qualified accounting personnel and to enhance the supervision, monitoring and reviewing of financial statements preparation processes. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, our management has identified the steps necessary to address the material weaknesses, and in the three months ended September 30, 2013, we continued to implement these remedial procedures. In addition to holding regular Board and Audit Committee meeting, the Company has increased its qualified accounting staff.

Other than in connection with the implementation of the remedial measures described above and in the 10-K, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
