Selected Financial Data
Financial Results
The net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012 was $4,053,512 (or a net loss of $0.08 per basic and diluted share), compared to $3,817,547 (or a net loss of $0.08 per basic and diluted share) for the prior year's comparative quarter. This loss was made up of $1,037,042 in net exploration expenditures, $2,541,548 in general and administrative expenses, and other losses totaling $474,922. Some of the factors of note when comparing the current quarter to the prior year's comparative quarter are as follows:
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's working capital position at March 31, 2012 was $38,585,346, compared with $40,742,549 at December 31, 2011. The decrease in working capital of $2,157,203 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2012 was primarily due to cash used in operating activities of $3,277,980 and purchase of property and equipment of $1,143,188. The decrease was primarily offset by funds received from sale of marketable securities of $718,275, on exercise of warrants of $1,898,995 and stock options of $20,000. In management's opinion, the Company currently has sufficient working capital to fund its proposed exploration programs and administrative expenditures through and beyond the next twelve months. Presently, the Company has no revenues and obtains its cash requirements through the issuance of shares, its joint venture partners, attracting additional joint venture partners and the sale of available investments and marketable securities in order to finance further property acquisitions and to explore and develop its mineral properties.
Share Data
The Company's shares are traded on the TSX Venture Exchange and, since January 30, 2012, on the NYSE Amex. At May 14, 2012, the Company had 53,226,200 common shares issued and outstanding.
