Re: Palomine Mining Inc.
Amendment no. 1 to Form SB-2
Registration no. 333-123465
Dear Mr. Larabie:
We have reviewed your amendment and have the following
comments.
General
1. Please see our prior comment 8. Please explain why you believe
that it is appropriate to require securityholders to find a state
exemption for resales when that exemption is an integral part of
this
offering. Include a risk factor that Palomine does not intend to
register in any state and that it will be up to the individual
security holder to arrange for exemptions to allow sales of
Palomine`s securities in any particular state. Also note the
costs
of this approach.
Mineralization
2. Define "anomalous" as used in this section.
Plan of Business
3. Update the disclosure herein to the latest practicable date.
4. See our prior comment 13. We understand that Palomine is
obligated to invest certain amounts in the Gab Claim within
certain
periods. Revise the disclosure to state unambiguously that
Palomine
is required to make those investments by certain dates in the
property or lose its interest in the claim.
5. Further, disclose in more specific detail how management
expects
to raise the necessary funds to meet these obligations.
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
6. We note your supplemental statement that Palomine "will not
have
any business relationships with Mr. Larabie`s other business
interests." Please advise how this will be applied in the light
of
the disclosure that "our bylaws provide that each officer who
holds
another office or possesses property that may lead to a conflict
of
interest shall, in writing, disclose the fact and the nature,
character and extent of the conflict and abstain from voting with
respect to any resolution in which the officer has a personal
interest."
Financial Statements
General
7. Provide a current consent in any amendment and be aware of the
updating requirements of Item 310(g) of Regulation S-B.
Part II
Exhibit 23
8. See prior comment 21. We cannot locate the copy of Mr. Glen
MacDonald`s assessment report. Please advise.
