Geostar Mineral Corporation
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations and Organization
Geostar Mineral Corporations (the Company) principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources in Canada. The Company has not presently determined whether its properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Geostar have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with Geostars audited 2007 annual financial statements and notes thereto. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements, which would substantially duplicate the disclosure required in Geostars 2007 annual financial statements have been omitted.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies Geostar will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next twelve months. Realization value may be substantially different from carrying values as shown, and these financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should Geostar be unable to continue as a going concern. As of July 31, 2008 Geostar has a working capital deficiency, has not generated revenues and has accumulated losses of $571,166 since inception. The continuation of Geostar as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of Geostar to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding Geostars ability to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During the period ended July 31, 2008 the Company recognized a total of $4,500 for donated services at $250 per month for nine months for donated rent and at $250 per month for nine months for consulting services provided by the President and Director of the Company. These transactions are recorded at the exchange amount which is the amount agreed to by the transacting parties.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
This section of the report includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.
Plan of Operation
We are a start-up, exploration stage corporation and have not yet generated or realized any revenues from our business operations.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated until we begin removing and selling minerals. There is no assurance we will ever reach this point. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than the sale of minerals found on the property. That cash must be raised from other sources. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by others. We must raise cash to implement our project and stay in business.
We will be conducting research in the form of exploration of the property. We are not going to buy or sell any plant or significant equipment during the next twelve months.
The property is located 170 miles east of Vancouver, near Beaverdell on the West Kettle River. The property is in the Greenwood Mining Division, and is centered at approximately 49o22N. latitude and 119o06W. longitude. The Beaverdell community lies 3 miles to the north, on Highway 33; Kelowna and the junction with Highway 97 lies 50 miles to the north, while Rock Creek and the junction of Highways 3 and 33 is 27 miles to the south. A network of secondary roads, including the rail bed of the abandoned Kettle River Railway access most parts of the property. The property is situated within the Monashee Mountains and elevations range from 2,500 feet along the West Kettle River to 3,200 feet at the northwestern edge of the property.
Our exploration target is to find an ore body containing gold. Our success depends upon finding mineralized material. This includes a determination by our consultant if the property contains reserves. Mineralized material is a mineralized body, which has been delineated by appropriate spaced drilling or underground sampling to support sufficient tonnage and average grade of metals to justify removal. If we dont find mineralized material or we cannot remove mineralized material, either because we do not have the money to do it or because it is not economically feasible to do it, we will cease operations and you will lose your investment.
We do not have sufficient funds to continue exploring the property.
8
In addition, we may not have enough money to complete our exploration of the property. If it turns out that we have not raised enough money to complete our exploration program, we will try to raise additional funds from a second public offering, a private placement or loans. At the present time, we have not made any plans to raise additional money and there is no assurance that we would be able to raise additional money in the future. In we need additional money and cant raise it, we will have to suspend or cease operations.
We must conduct exploration to determine what amount of minerals, if any, exist on our properties and if any minerals which are found can be economically extracted and profitably processed.
The property is undeveloped raw land. To our knowledge, the property has never been mined. The only event that has occurred is the staking of the property by Madman Mining Co. and a physical examination of the property by Mr. Protskiv, our president and director. The registering of the cells was included in the $2,200 paid to Madman Mining Co. No additional payments were made or are due to Madman Mining Co. for its services. The claims were recorded in Mr. Protskivs name to avoid incurring additional costs at this time. The additional fees would be for incorporation of a British Columbia corporation and legal and accounting fees related to the incorporation. On November 3, 2006, Mr. Protskiv executed a declaration of trust acknowledging that he holds the property in trust for us and he will not deal with the property in any way, except to transfer the property to us. In the event that Mr. Protskiv transfers title to a third party, the declaration of trust will be used as evidence that he breached his fiduciary duty to us. Mr. Protskiv has not provided us with a signed or executed bill of sale in our favor. Mr. Protskiv will issue a bill of sale to a subsidiary corporation to be formed by us should mineralized material be discovered on the property. Mineralized material is a mineralized body, which has been delineated by appropriate spaced drilling or underground sampling to support sufficient tonnage and average grade of metals to justify removal. Before minerals retrieval can begin, we must explore for and find mineralized material. We have to determine if it is economically feasible to remove the mineralized material. Economically feasible means that the costs associated with the removal of the mineralized material will not exceed the price at which we can sell the mineralized material. We cant predict what that will be until we find mineralized material. Mr. Protskiv does not have a right to sell the property to anyone. He may only transfer the property to us. He may not demand payment for the claims when he transfer them to us. Further, Mr. Protskiv does not have the right to sell the claims at a profit to us if mineralized material is discovered on the property. Mr. Protskiv must transfer title to us, without payment of any kind, regardless of what is or is not discovered on the property.
We do not know if we will find mineralized material. We believe that activities occurring on adjoining properties are not material to our activities. The reason being is that whatever is located under the adjoining property may or may not be located under our property.
We do not claim to have any minerals or reserves whatsoever at this time on any area of our property.
9
We intend to implement an exploration program which consists of core sampling. Core sampling is the process of drilling holes to a depth of up to 300 feet in order to extract samples of earth. Mr. Protskiv, after confirming with our consultant, will determine where drilling will occur on the property. Mr. Protskiv will not receive fees for his services. The samples will be tested to determine if mineralized material is located on the property. Based upon the tests of the core samples, we will determine if we will terminate operations; proceed with additional exploration of the property; or develop the property. The proceeds from this offering are designed to only fund the costs of core sampling and testing. We intend to take our core samples to analytical chemists, geochemists and registered assayers located in Vancouver, British Columbia. We have not selected any of the foregoing as of the date of this report, as we do not have the funds to do so.
We do not intend to interest other companies in the property if we find mineralized materials. We intend to try to develop the reserves ourselves through the use of consultant. We have no plans to interest other companies in the property if we do not find mineralized material. To pay the consultant and develop the reserves, we will have to raise additional funds through a second public offering, a private placement or through loans. Further, there is no assurance we will be able to raise any additional funds even if we discover mineralized material and have a defined ore body.
If we are unable to complete any phase of exploration because we dont have enough money, we will cease operations until we raise more money. If we cant or dont raise more money, we will cease operations. If we cease operations, we dont know what we will do and we dont have any plans to do anything.
We dont intend to hire additional employees at this time. All of the work on the property will be conducted by unaffiliated independent contractors that we will hire. The independent contractors will be responsible for surveying, geology, engineering, exploration, and excavation. The geologists will evaluate the information derived from the exploration and excavation, and the engineers will advise us on the economic feasibility of removing the mineralized material.
10
Milestones
The following are our milestones, however we do not have the funds to complete them:
1. |
We must raise $44,000 in order to continue exploration of the property. We dont know how long that will take. | |
2. |
Spring 2009 - Retain our consultant to manage the exploration of the property. Cost - $5,000 to $15,000. Time of retention 0-90 days. To carry out this milestone, we must hire a consultant. There are a number of mining consultants located in Vancouver, British Columbia that we intend to interview. | |
3. |
Summer 2009 - Core drilling. Core drilling will cost $20.00 per foot. Core drilling we be subcontracted to non-affiliated third parties. Cost - $24,000. Time to conduct the core drilling - 90 days. To carry out this milestone we must conduct the core drilling. The driller will be retained by our consultant. | |
4. |
Fall 2009 - Have an independent third party analyze the samples from the core drilling. Determine if mineralized material is below the ground. If mineralized material is found, we will attempt to define the ore body. We estimate that it will cost $3,000 to analyze the core samples and it will take 30 days. Delivery of the samples to the independent third party is necessary to carry out this milestone. |
The cost of the subcontractors is included in the cost of the exploration services to be performed. All funds for the foregoing activities will be obtained from our public offering.
Limited Operating History/Need for Additional Capital
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are an exploration stage corporation and have not generated any revenues from operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in the exploration of our properties, and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services.
To become profitable and competitive, we conduct research and exploration of our properties before we start production of any minerals we may find.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
If we find mineralized material and it is economically feasible to remove the mineralized material, we will attempt to raise additional money through a subsequent private placement, public offering or through loans.
11
At the present time, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional cash. If we need additional cash and can't raise it we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely. Other than as described in this paragraph, we have no other financing plans.
We have the right to conduct exploration activity on one property containing four MTO cells.
Since inception, we have issued 5,511,400 shares of our common stock and received $51,140.
We issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock to our sole officer and director pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1993. The purchase price of the shares was $50. This was accounted for as an acquisition of shares. Andriy Protskiv covered our initial expenses for incorporation, accounting and legal fees and for registering the property, all of which was paid directly to our staker, attorney and accountant. The amount owed to Mr. Protskiv was paid back to him in full in August 2007.
We also issued 511,400 shares of common stock and raised $51,140.
As of July 31, 2008, our total assets were $2,549 and our total liabilities were $11,574. We have insufficient funds to conduct our exploration activity.
