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 condensed 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, 2012. 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 June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012, the results of its operations for the three month periods ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, and its cash flows for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011. 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-month period ended June 30, 2012 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.

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, bear 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% (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.

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficit of $3,726,664 and has incurred a deficit of $14,260,819 for the cumulative period to June 30, 2012. 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 issue and sell 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 507,500 shares of Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,015,000. 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.

COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION

On May 12, 2010, Chile Mining Technologies, Inc (The “Company”) completed an acquisition of Minera pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement. 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.

All long term liabilities are valued at fair market value at inception. These long term notes do not bear interest and had a maturity date of March 31, 2013. On May 8, 2012, the Company entered Loan Repayment Agreements (the “Repayment Agreements”) with holders of promissory notes of the Company (each, a “Lender”). Pursuant to the Repayment Agreements, each 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 Company recognized a discount on the face value of the loans at inception to adjust the carrying value to the fair value. Fair value was calculated by using the net present value of the loans, at an assumed interest rate of 18%. The amount of the discount, being $1,404,458 was recorded in “Additional paid in capital” on the opening balance sheet.

During the year ended March 31, 2011, the promissory note holders forgave $661,552 in debt. The transaction was accounted for as a capital transaction with related parties and the company credited ‘Additional paid in capital’ with $661,552.

In addition, the Company credited additional paid in capital with $13,835 (refer to Note 8 (c))

On May 8, 2012, the Company entered Loan Repayment Agreements (the “Repayment Agreements”) with holders of promissory notes of the Company (each, a “Lender”). Pursuant to the Repayment Agreements, each 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 discounts 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. The Company recognized interest expense to amortize discounts on promissory notes to related parties for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 in the amount of $76,563 ($80,847 in 2011).

As a condition precedent to the consummation of the Share Exchange Agreement, on May 12, 2010, the Company also entered into the Cancellation Agreement 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.

On May 6, 2010, the Company entered into a letter agreement that outlined the proposed terms of a standby facility of credit with AIBC International Corp.(SR), or AIBC. Under the letter agreement, the Company could request an advance from AIBC for up to an aggregate of $3 million, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. In connection with the execution of the letter agreement, the Company issued to AIBC 75,000 shares of common stock.

On May 12, 2010, the Company also completed a private placement transaction with a group of accredited investors. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement that was entered into with the investors and Minera, 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 the Closing Warrants to purchase up to 1,044,803 shares of common stock.

IMPAIRMENT OF MINING RIGHTS

Except for the mining sites currently being exploited, all other mining rights obtained by the Company have been expensed, since the Company currently has no formal plan to exploit these mineral 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.

The following table summarizes the components of the derivative liabilities as of June 30, 2012 and inception of the instruments:

          Inception  
May 2010 Private Placement:   June 30, 2012     May 12, 2010  
Investor warrants $  -   $  1,519,144  
Broker warrants   -     273,442  
Credit facility warrants   -     523,440  
Make Good warrants   -     131,891  
Acquisition advisory fees:            
Make Good warrants   -     62,176  
Total derivative liabilities $  -   $  2,510,093  

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 June 30, 2012 and inception of the instruments:

At March 31, 2012 all variability and rights resulting in liability classification were removed and the instruments were remeasured 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.

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 Company amortized deferred finance cost by $27,275 during the quarter ended June 30, 2012. Deferred finance costs outstanding as of June 30, 2012 relating to this financing is $ 81,043.

The direct financing costs are allocated to the financial instruments (redeemable common stock and warrants), based upon their relative fair values. 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%. 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 June 30, 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 Loan Repayment Agreements (the “Repayment Agreements”) with HBG ( “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:

Convertible Promissory Note $  190,000

SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES

$3,135,000 Face Value Secured Convertible Notes

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 issue and sell 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 507,500 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 initial 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.

Accounting for the Financing:

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. The calculation of the effective conversion amount did not result in a beneficial conversion feature. Additionally, 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 $1,143,154. 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. Imputed interest expense amounted to $29,842 during the three month period ended June 30, 2012. In addition, amortization of deferred finance charges amounted to $17,833 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012. The purchase price allocation is as follows:

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 quarter ended June 30, 2012.

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 June 30, 2012 the amount of copper contained in material delivered to the leach pad is at a level of 1%.Expected copper recovery rates are determined using small-scale laboratory tests, historical trends and other known factors, including mineralogy of the ore and rock type. The ultimate recovery of copper contained in leach stockpiles can vary from a very low percentage to over 90 percent depending on several variables, including type of processing, metallurgical processes and mineralogy. As at June 30, 2012 the amount of inventory on balance sheet represents supplies inventory only.

In November 2010, Minera signed a ten year lease with an option to purchase for two properties owned by Mr. Santiago Lay in Arica, Republic of Chile. Minera would be obligated to pay a total monthly rent of $32,051 for the first 12 months (15 million Chilean Pesos) which will be adjusted and offset with future royalty payments. The Royalty established was equivalent to ten percent of the net value of the ore to be extracted and sold, metallic or nonmetallic, taking as reference the rates established by ENAMI monthly. However, Minera, at its full cost, considered installing a plant to process the ore extracted. The royalty was to be paid monthly, starting in month thirteen counted from the signing of the contract. All direct and indirect expenses related to the program of exploration, conceptual study and feasibility study will be at the total and exclusive charge of Minera and not adjustable with the rent or royalty.

Minera only paid two months of the actual minimum rent and therefore failed to deliver on the remaining balance owed on the purchase of the property. As a result of this agreement lapsing, the option to purchase this property was nullified and subsequent to the year end Minera let this agreement lapse. On May 19, 2012, Minera signed an agreement with Santiago Lay releasing it from any liabilities and future payments due from this agreement. With this agreement, Mr. Lay agreed to repay deposits paid by Minera as well as provide partial compensation for the work and studies performed on this property to a maximum of $560,000. Minera and Mr. Lay agreed to use this compensation to repay Minera’s loan of $500,000 with interest of $60,000 payable to Exportadora e Importadora Bengolea (Bengolea). In accordance with the final contract, Mr. Lay is currently repaying this loan directly to Bengolea.

On June 28, 2012 Minera contracted with Narnia Uno Al Las Veinte to acquire 90 hectares of mining property located in the Commune of Illapel for a total purchase price of $222,000 (CLP112, 000,000). All rights to the property belonged to the seller and the property was properly registered under the Conservatory of Mines of the City of Illapel (ROL #43011253-8). All properties and rights will transfer from seller to buyer provided price of CLP 112,000,000 is met. As of June 30, 2012, Minera had made payments totaling $64,000 (CLP 32,000,000 ) toward the purchase price and incurred an additional $7,881 expenses related to the acquisition. Additional monthly payments will be made through February 2013 to complete the sale.

Value added tax balance represents net VAT recoverable which may be refunded or applied toward future corporate tax liability.

15.

LOAN FROM NON RELATED PARTY

During the year ended March 31, 2012, Minera received a loan from Exportadora e Importadora Bengolea (Bengolea), a non-related party for $500,000 for additional working capital. This loan is free of interest and payable in six monthly equal installments commencing six months after the receipt of loan. Minera will be obligated to pay interest at 10% per annum in the event of default. The Company defaulted on the loan and in settlement of the $500,000, Bengolea agreed to accept a one-time payment of interest of $60,000. On May 19, 2012 Minera finalized an agreement between one of its debtors and Bengolea that released Minera from this loan through repayment of the loan with accrued interest (refer to Note 14).

COMMITMENTS

During the year ended March 31, 2012, the Company received a loan from Exportadora e Importadora Bengolea (Bengolea), a non-related party for $500,000 for additional working capital. Associated with this loan, the company was committed to supply 100MT of cathodes per month to a customer for a period of 12 months for a total of 1,200MT commencing May, 2011. The selling prices are based on London metal prices less 8% commission. Any short supply will be carried forward to next month until the supply of 1,200MT is complete. As of March 31, 2012, the Company did not supply any cathodes and since the production from the Ana Maria plant was significantly limited Bengolea agreed to void the loan conditions for a full refund of their money plus a one-time payment of interest of $60,000. On May 19, 2012 the Company finalized an agreement between one of its debtors and Bengolea that released the Company from this loan through repayment of the loan with accrued interest (refer to Note 14).

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.

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.

22


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.

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$2,205 per metric ton. As of August 13, 2012, copper was trading at $7,495 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   2nd Quarter 2013   1,200 MT
Combarbala   Gabriella   2nd 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.

Sales. We had sales of $34,829 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared with sales of $63,209 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of 45%. During the first half of the quarter ended June 30, 2012, we had limited funds to operate. As a result, we were not able to operate our plant. We had an agreement with a 3rd party to process copper powder provided we delivered enough mineral to their plant to cover half of the costs. We were only able to deliver a small amount of mineral with our limited resources. Because our plant has not been in operation for a period of time, it will require additional time to ensure it is fully operational. As a result, we had no production from our own plant during the current quarter. For the quarter ended June 30, 2011, we also had limited resources and limited production from our Ana Maria Plant.

Cost of sales. Cost of sales includes direct costs associated with the sale of our products. Cost of sales was $378,361 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared with $341,242 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of 11%. During the first half of the quarter ended June 30, 2012, we had limited funds to operate. As a result, we were not able to operate our plant. We incurred expenses in an agreement with a 3rd party whom agreed to process our mineral to produce copper powder. We were only able to deliver a limited amount of mineral and as a result still incurred expenses associated with this limited production. Since the first close of our fund raise on May 8, 2012 the company has been incurring expenses to develop mines in order to ensure the delivery of mineral to the plant as well as complete all of the necessary testing and equipment improvements to ensure the plant is operational in the near term. The lower cost reflected in the June 30, 2011 period is due to the fact that we were operating with limited resources.

24


Gross loss. Gross loss is equal to the difference between our sales and the cost of sales. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we had a gross loss of $343,532, as compared with a gross loss of $278,033 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in gross loss was primarily due to the decrease in sales and increase 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 three months ended June 30, 2012, impairment of mining rights was $3,528, as compared with $701 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. 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 $22,694 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to $40,684 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of 44%. During the first half of the quarter ended June 30, 2012 we encountered significant working capital challenges and were forced to limit all overhead costs. With limited production in both periods, we worked hard to minimize salaries and wages as much as 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 June 30, 2012 were $497,657, as compared with $318,659 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This significant increase is the result of preparing the Company for our fund raises of May 8, 2012 and June 7, 2012, as well as ramping up the operations of the Company once we received the funds. 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. To support these activities, the Company incurred significantly more general and administrative expenses. During the quarter ended June 30, 2011 the Company operated with limited resources and therefore incurred fewer general and administrative expenses.

Professional fees. Professional fees consist of legal fees, accounting fees and other fees associated with our private placement transaction and operations as a public company. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, professional fees were $198,000, as compared with $13,884 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This increase was due to the fact that we 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 ramping our operations we incurred significantly increased professional fees. During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Company was operating with limited resources and as a result was forced to limit all 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 three months ended June 30, 2012, we amortized deferred finance costs of $27,275, as compared to $27,275 for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

On May 8, 2012, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors for issue 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 $17,833 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 and $nil for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Fair value adjustment relating to warrants. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we had no fair value adjustment to warrants, as compared to $433,477 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. On May 12, 2010, we commenced a private placement of common shares, warrants and make good warrants. 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 which results in no fair value adjustment relating to the warrants for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

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 June 30, 2012, in the amount of $76,563, as compared with $80,847 for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

On May 8, 2012, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors for issue 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 $29,842 during the three month period ended June 30, 2012 and $0 during the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Net loss. As a result of the cumulative effect of the foregoing factors, we generated a net loss of $1,216,924 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to a net loss of $326,606 for three months ended June 30, 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,018,579 and had a working capital deficit of $3,726,664. The following table provides detailed information about our net cash flow for the periods indicated.

Cash Flow

    Three Months Ended June 30,  
    2012     2011  
Net cash used in operating activities $  (1,177,611 ) $  (692,733 )
Net cash used in investing activities   (361,923 )   (16,277 )
Net cash provided by financing activities   2,539,480     634,484  
Effect of exchange rate change in cash   18,333     76,293  
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents   1,018,279     1,767  
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of the period   300     437,124  
Cash and cash equivalent at end of the period $  1,018,579   $  438,891  

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $1,177,611 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to $692,733 for the same period in 2011. The increase during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, was mainly due to the increased net loss and the decrease on accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $361,923 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to $16,277 for the same period in 2011. This increase was mainly due to the increase in restricted cash.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $2,539,480 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to $634,484 for the same period in 2011. This increase was mainly due to the proceeds from 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 issued and sold 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 realized that 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, due to the higher copper prices, 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 of March 31, 2011, we determined that in order to fully operate on our business plan, we would need an aggregate of approximately $2.1 million to operate at full capacity at our Ana Maria and Filomena plants. In addition, we determined that we would need approximately $0.7 million for working capital. Accordingly, we completed the private placement transaction noted above in the first fiscal quarter of 2013, in which we raised approximately $3.1 million in gross proceeds, which left us with approximately $2.8 million in net proceeds after the deduction of offering expenses.

Obligations under Material Contracts

As of March 31, 2012, 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 at 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
Importadora y Exportadora Bengolea Ltda.   US$500,000
Halter Financial Group   US$190,000

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, 2012.

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). Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

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 June 30, 2012. 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, 2012, which we were still in the process of remediating as of June 30, 2012, 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, 2012, 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 March 31, 2012, 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, 2012, our management has identified the steps necessary to address the material weaknesses, and in the first quarter of fiscal 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 first quarter of fiscal 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
