Clarification as to whether identified significant deficiencies constitute
a
material weakness(es).
We
do not

of
accounting personnel made available by consolidation of offices with our Plum
Mine operation, (ii) use of outside consultants, and (iii) oversight from our
Audit Committee. We have amended the disclosure to reflect this explanation
and
accordingly amended the disclosure in our 10-QSB for the quarter ended March
31,
2006.
