• During the fiscal year, following the announcement of an exploration budget of $3.4 M, a total of 3,012 meters of Diamond drilling from 15 drill holes have been completed at the Selinsing property.  Drill results were released subsequent to the year end in July 2011 indicating that the high grade shoots extended below the existing pit and mineralization is still open at depth.

Financial Results and Discussion
 
For the year ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded gold sales of $52,379,851, produced 44,438 ounces of gold and sold 40,438 ounces of gold at an average realized price of $1,400 from its Selinsing Gold Mine. Gold sales for July and August of $4,247,500 and related production costs were capitalized against the Selinsing Gold Property. The operation generated an income of $35,374,349 net of operating and corporate expenses, or $0.21 per share. This was reduced to a net income of $31,252,160, or $0.19 per share after other losses and taxes compared to a net loss of $3,034,838, or ($0.02) per share reported for the corresponding period in fiscal 2010. The other losses were mainly due to $5,905,306 caused by changes in fair value on derivative liabilities and accretion expense related to convertible debt, offset partially by interest income.
  
Financing Activities
 
On August 11, 2010, a financing totaling CAD 13 million was closed and comprised of the private placement of $7,653,600 (CAD 8,000,000) in convertible notes (the "Notes") and a $4,753,500 (CAD 5,000,000) forward sale of gold (the "Forward Sale"). 
The funds are for the planned exploration programs; closing the acquisition of a prospective exploration property adjacent to the Selinsing gold project where the Company�s gold treatment plant is located; and for the gold treatment plant extension with a second mill.  With the additional funding, the Company expects to be able to increase gold resources and enhance gold production through increased plant throughput.
