ITEM 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS



Company History


The Company was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Idaho on November 9, 1935, under the name of Montgomery Mines, Inc. In April, 1978 controlling interest in the Montgomery Mines Corporation was obtained by a group of the Thunder Mountain property holders. That group then changed the corporate name to Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. with the primary goal to further develop their holdings in the Thunder Mountain Mining District, Valley County, Idaho.  In August 1985, the Company's shareholders approved an increase in the authorized common stock, $0.05 par value, from 7,500,000 shares to 12,000,000 shares.  


Change in Status


The Company has recently moved its status from Idaho to Nevada. On December 10, 2007, articles of incorporation were filed with the Secretary of State in Nevada for Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc., a Nevada



3






Corporation.  The Directors of Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. (Nevada) were the same as for Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. (Idaho).  


On January 25, 2008, the shareholders approved the merger of Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. (Idaho) with Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. (Nevada). The terms of the merger were such that the Nevada Corporation was the surviving entity.  The number of authorized shares for the Nevada Corporation is 200,000,000 shares of common stock and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock.


The Company is structured as follows: The Company owns 100% of the outstanding stock of Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc., a Nevada Corporation. Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc. owns 100% of the outstanding stock of South Mountain Mines, Inc., an Idaho Corporation.


We have no patents, licenses, franchises or concessions which are considered by the Company to be of importance. The business is not of a seasonal nature. Since the potential products are traded in the open market, we have no control over the competitive conditions in the industry. There is no backlog of orders.


There are numerous Federal and State laws and regulation related to environmental protection, which have direct application to mining and milling activities. The more significant of these laws deal with mined land reclamation and wastewater discharge from mines and milling operations. We do not believe that these laws and regulations as presently enacted will have a direct material adverse effect on its operations.


Subsidiary Company


On May 21, 2007, the Company filed of articles of incorporation with the Secretary of State in Nevada for Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. G. Peter Parsley was appointed as President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole Director.  The financial information for the new subsidiary is included in the consolidated financial statements.


On September 27, 2007, Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc., completed the purchase of all the outstanding stock of South Mountain Mines, Inc., an Idaho corporation.  The sole asset of South Mountain Mines, Inc. consists of seventeen patented mining claims, totaling approximately 326 acres, located in the South Mountain Mining District, Owyhee County, Idaho. The Stock Purchase Agreement was previously filed as an Exhibit to a Form 8-K filed on June 11, 2007.


Current Operations


Thunder Mountain Gold is a mineral exploration stage company with no producing mines.  The Company intends to remain in the business of exploring for mining properties that have the potential to produce gold, silver, base metals and other commodities.


Reports To Security Holders


The Registrant does not issue annual or quarterly reports to security holders other than the annual Form 10-KSB and quarterly Forms 10-QSB as electronically filed with the SEC.  Electronically filed reports may be accessed at www.sec.gov.  Interested parties also may read and copy any materials filed with the SEC at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, N. W., Washington, D.C. 20549.

Information may be obtained on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1 (800) SEC-0330.


Risk Factors  


Our business, operations, and financial condition are subject to various risks. This is particularly true since we are in the business of conducting exploration for mineral properties that have the potential for discovery of economic mineral resources.  We urge you to consider the following risk factors in addition to the other information contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB:


We have very limited income and resources and we expect losses to continue for at least the next three years.

Our only continuing source of funds is through sales of equity positions received from investors, which may not be sufficient to sustain our operations.  Any additional funds required would have to come from the issuance of debt or the sale of our common stock.  There is no guarantee that funds would be available from either source.  If we are unsuccessful in raising additional funds, we will not be able to develop our properties and forced to liquidate assets.  


The Company will likely need to raise additional capital to continue our operations, and if we fail to obtain the capital necessary to fund our operations, we will be unable to continue our exploration efforts and may have to cease operations.


At December 31, 2007, we had cash position of $499,777.  The Company is planning of raising additional funds in 2008 to meet our current operating and capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, we have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we cannot assure that estimates and assumptions will remain unchanged. For the year ended December 31, 2007 net cash used for operating activities was $346,322, which includes $83,609 for 2007 shareholder maintenance, accounting, auditing and filing.  Our future liquidity and capital requirements will depend on many factors, including timing, cost and progress of our exploration efforts, our evaluation of, and decisions with respect to, our strategic alternatives, and costs associated with the regulatory approvals. If it turns out that we do not have enough money to complete our exploration programs, we will try to raise additional funds from a second public offering, a private placement or loans.


We know that additional financing will be required in the future to fund our planned operations. We do not know whether additional financing will be available when needed or on acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional financing when necessary, we may have to delay our exploration efforts or any property acquisitions or be forced to cease operations. Collaborative arrangements may require us to relinquish our rights to certain of our mining claims.


Our exploration efforts may be adversely affected by metals price volatility causing us to cease exploration efforts.


We have no earnings. However, the success of any exploration efforts is derived from the price of metal prices that are affected by numerous factors including: 1) expectations for inflation; 2) investor speculative activities; 3) relative exchange rate of the U.S. dollar to other currencies; 4) global and regional demand and production; 5) global and regional political and economic conditions; and 6)



5






production costs in major producing regions. These factors are beyond our control and are impossible for us to predict.


There is no guarantee that current favorable prices for metals and other commodities will be sustained. If the market prices for these commodities fall we will temporarily suspend or cease exploration efforts.


Our mineral exploration efforts may not be successful.


Mineral exploration is highly speculative. It involves many risks and often does not produce positive results. Even if we find a valuable mineral deposit, it may be three years or more before production is possible because of the need for additional detailed exploration, pre-production studies, and permitting, financing, construction and start up.


During that time, it may become economically unfeasible to produce those minerals. Establishing ore reserves requires us to make substantial capital expenditures and, in the case of new properties, to construct mining and processing facilities. As a result of these costs and uncertainties, we will not be able to develop any potentially economic mineral deposits.


We face strong competition from other mining companies for the acquisition of new properties.


If we do find an economic mineral reserve, and it is put into production, it should be noted that mines have limited lives and as a result, we need to continually seek to find new properties. In addition, there is a limited supply of desirable mineral lands available in the United States or elsewhere where we would consider conducting exploration activities. Because we face strong competition for new properties from other exploration and mining companies, some of whom have greater financial resources than we do, we may be unable to acquire attractive new mining properties on terms that we consider acceptable.


Mining operations may be adversely affected by risks and hazards associated with the mining industry.


Mining operations involve a number of risks and hazards including: 1) environmental hazards; 2) political and country risks; 3) industrial accidents; 4) labor disputes; 5) unusual or unexpected geologic formations; 6) high wall failures, cave-ins or explosive rock failures, and; 7) flooding and periodic interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions.  Such risks could result in: 1) damage to or destruction of mineral properties or producing facilities; 2) personal injury; 3) environmental damage; 4) delays in exploration efforts; 5) monetary losses, and; 6) legal liability.


We have no insurance against any of these risks. To the extent we are subject to environmental liabilities, we would have to pay for these liabilities. Moreover, in the event that we ever become an operator of a mine, and unable to fully pay for the cost of remedying an environmental problem, should they occur, we might be required to suspend operations or enter into other interim compliance measures.


Because we are small and do not have much capital, we must limit our exploration. This may prevent us from realizing any revenues, thus reducing the value of the stock and you may lose your investment as a result.

Because our Company is small and does not have much capital, we must limit the time and money we expend on exploration of interests in our properties. In particular, we may not be able to: 1) devote the time we would like to exploring our properties; 2) spend as much money as we would like to exploring



6






our properties; 3) rent the quality of equipment or hire the contractors we would like to have for exploration; and 4) have the number of people working on our properties that we would like to have.  By limiting our operations, it may take longer to explore our properties. There are other larger exploration companies that could and may spend more time and money exploring the properties that we have acquired.


We will have to suspend our exploration plans if we do not have access to all  the supplies and materials we need.


Competition and unforeseen limited sources of supplies in the industry could result in occasional spot shortages of supplies, like dynamite, and equipment like bulldozers and excavators that we might need to conduct exploration. We have not attempted to locate or negotiate with any suppliers of products, equipment or materials. We will attempt to locate products, equipment and materials after we have conducted preliminary exploration activities on our properties. If we cannot find the products and equipment we need in a timely manner, we will have to delay or suspend our exploration plans until we do find the products and equipment we need.


We face substantial governmental regulation and environmental risks, which could prevent us from exploring or developing our properties.


Our business is subject to extensive federal, state and local laws and regulations governing development, production, labor standards, occupational health, waste disposal, use of toxic substances, environmental regulations, mine safety and other matters. New legislation and regulations may be adopted at any time that results in additional operating expense, capital expenditures or restrictions and delays in the exploration, mining, production or development of our properties.


At this time, we have no specific financial obligations for environmental costs. Various laws and permits require that financial assurances be in place for certain environmental and reclamation obligations and other potential liabilities. Once we undertake any trenching or drilling activities, a reclamation bond and a permit will be required under applicable laws. Currently, we have no obligations for financial assurances of any kind, and are unable to undertake any trenching, drilling, or development on any of our properties until we obtain financial assurances pursuant to applicable regulations to cover potential liabilities.


If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to detect fraud or report our financial results accurately, which could harm our business and we could be subject to regulatory scrutiny.

 

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”), we are required, to perform an evaluation of our internal controls over financial reporting. In upcoming years we will be required to have our independent registered public accounting firm test and evaluate the design and operating effectiveness of such internal controls and publicly attest to such evaluation. We have prepared an internal plan of action for compliance with the requirements of Section 404, have completed our effectiveness evaluation. Although we believe our internal controls are operating effectively, we cannot guarantee that we will not have any material weaknesses as reported by our independent registered public accounting firm. Compliance with the requirements of Section 404 is expected to be expensive and time-consuming. If we fail to complete this evaluation in a timely manner, or if our independent registered public accounting firm cannot attest to our evaluation, we could be subject to regulatory scrutiny and a loss of public confidence in our internal controls. In addition, any failure to implement required new or improved



7






controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations.


ITEM  2 - DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES


The Company, including its subsidiaries, owns rights to claims and properties in for mining areas of Nevada and Idaho.  None of the properties contain any known probable (indicated) or proven (measured) ore reserves under the definition of ore reserves that meet the definition of reserves as defined by SEC Industry Guide 7.


Thunder Mountain Gold


West Tonopah Claim Group, Esmeralda County, Nevada


Eight unpatented lode mining claims were staked by Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. totaling approximately 160 acres located in the Tonopah Mining district of Esmeralda County, Nevada.  The claims are located on what has been interpreted to be the offset portion of the West End and Ohio veins along the south limb of the West End Rhyolite intrusive dome.  The target is projected to be 500 to 800 feet deep and could initially be tested by surface drilling.  The typical veins historically mined in this area are projected to be 10-20 feet thick, with ore shoots up to 50 feet thick.  Grades historically mined in the area were 15 to 20 ounces per ton (opt) silver and 0.15 to 0.20 opt gold.  There is approximately 3,000 feet of relatively unexplored strike length and the veins could extend to depths of 2,000 feet.  


During the period 1900 to 1952, the Tonopah District produced 174,153,600 ounces silver and 1,861,000 ounces of gold from 8,798,000 tons of ore for an average grade of approximately 20 opt silver and 0.21 opt gold.  Approximately 50% of this production came from what are called the “contact veins” in the western part of the district where the mineralization occurs near the contacts of the Mizpah Andesite and Tonopah Formation Rhyolite with the domed-shaped West End Rhyolite intrusive sill.  


Clover Mountain Claim Group, Owhyee County, Idaho


Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. staked the Clover Mountain claim group that consists of 40 unpatented lode mining claims totaling approximately 800 acres.  A geologic reconnaissance program in the fall of 2006 identified anomalous gold, silver, and other base metals in rock chips and soils at Clover Mountain.  Mineralization appears to be associated with subtle stockwork veining in a granitic stock which has been intruded by northeast and northwest trending rhyolitic dikes.  The property is overlain by locally silicified rhyolitic tuff.


Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc.


Stock Ownership in South Mountain Mines


Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc. completed the acquisition of 100% ownership of South Mountain Mines, Inc. on September 27, 2007.




8






Trout Creek Claim Group, Lander County, Nevada


A total of 58 lode mining claims were staked by Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc. on the Trout Creek target in the Reese River Valley area south of Battle Mountain, Lander County, Nevada.  The target is defined by a regional gravity high-low flexure and also by a magnetic anomaly recently confirmed through ground magnetic survey initiated by the Company during the summer of 2007.  


Notice was received early in 2008 by Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc. that a number of the TC claims had been located on a section of land on which the BLM did not control the mineral rights but had been subject to a split estate land exchange.  This was not indicated on the map that the Company used to lay out the claim package.  However, the Company believes the primary target is within the valid set of claims.  Additional claims have been staked in the area to cover the identified target associated with a gravity and magnetic anomaly.  A total of 60 claims are now controlled by the Company.


South Mountain Mines, Inc.


South Mountain Project, Owyhee County, Idaho


The sole asset of South Mountain Mines, Inc. consists of 17 patented mining claims, totaling approximately 326 acres, located in the South Mountain Mining District, Owyhee County, Idaho.  In addition to the patented claim package, in 2007 the Company staked 14 additional unpatented claims in areas of favorable geology.


A four-month due diligence period prior to completing the acquisition allowed the Company to determine that there were no significant environmental issues associated with the South Mountain Mines properties.  Extensive title work was also completed, and no breaks in the chain of title were discovered, including potential segregation of the surface and mineral ownership on any of the patented claims.  Water rights history for the site was also researched.


Geologic work completed during the due diligence period included confirmation of the surface mapping and the collection of surface rock chip sampling in specific areas of interest.  A limited ground magnetometer survey was undertaken over known and projected mineralized horizons, and sufficient information was gathered to warrant follow-up work.  


A contractor opened the Laxey tunnel portal and secured the underground workings so that access could be gained for examination of the tunnel conditions and to conduct a limited verification sampling program.  The tunnel and stopes were found to be in excellent condition with timbering required only in areas of the larger intrusive dikes.  Access was gained to the back of the tunnel to the Texas stope area. A confirmatory and limited chip channel sampling program was conducted in areas of previous sampling programs done in the 1950s by Bunker Hill and others.   A total of six samples were collected and analyzed by ALS Chemex lab in Elko, Nevada.  The average of the six underground samples was 9.1% zinc, 11 opt silver, 2.15% copper, 1.5% lead and 0.011 opt gold.


In addition to the underground sampling, an approximate 500-ton lower-grade stockpile remaining from the floatation mill that operated in the 1950s was systematically sampled.  The stockpile sample yielded values of 7.13% zinc, 2.0 opt silver, 0.058 opt gold, 0.3% lead and .35% copper.  A second stockpile sampling program was undertaken on the estimated 750-ton stockpile of test ore mined by South Mountain Mines, Inc. during the 1980s.  South Mountain Mines had previously segregated high



9






and low grade material, but had mixed them during reclamation work completed in 2006.  A track-mounted backhoe was used to carefully sample and then reclaim the stockpile on one-foot increments, with the samples submitted to ALS Chemex in Elko, Nevada.  The composite grade of the samples was 3.43 opt silver, 0.092 opt gold, 7.22% zinc, 0.30% copper and 1.3% lead.


The underground stockpile sampling confirmed the high-grade nature of precious and base metals associated with the South Mountain Mine.  They are also backed up by the mined ore that was direct-shipped to a Utah smelter during the World War II era when underground mining  yielded 53,653 tons of ore grading 10.6 opt silver, 0.058 opt gold, 14.5% zinc, 2.4% lead and 1.4% copper (based on smelter returns).  In addition, the underground exploration work completed by South Mountain Mines, Inc. resulted in a feasibility study with a resource base of about 470,000 tons of ore grading 7.53 opt silver, 0.05 opt gold, 9.77% zinc, 0.94% copper and 1.4% copper.  Shortly after completion of the feasibility study in 1986, South Mountain Mines, Inc. made the decision to place the property on care and maintenance and it remained so until the Company acquired it in 2007.


Late in the 2007 field season, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) completed a reclamation project on the historic mill tailings located immediately adjacent to the Company’s patented claims.  There had been no significant environmental concerns associated with the estimated 20,000-ton tailings repository were identified by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality study, or by water samples taken by South Mountain Mines or by Thunder Mountain Resources, the BLM contracted with North Wind to shape the tailings for drainage, then cover them with plastic liner, 18-inches of topsoil, reseed, fence and construct diversion ditches around the tailings area.  The Company worked with the BLM to complete the work, and the approximate 2,500 cubic yards of topsoil was mined off of the Company’s patented claims.  


The Company is planning an extensive program for South Mountain Mines:


·

During the first quarter of 2008, a contract was given to Kleinfelder, a consulting group with an office in Boise, Idaho and with “43-101 Qualified” staff to complete both the compilation of historic data and a Technical Report.


·

Up to 3,000 feet of core drilling will be initiated from the surface to intercept the downdip portions of the Texas and DMEA 2 zones.


·

The Sonneman portal will be opened and the 2,500 +/- feet of tunnel rehabilitated so that underground sampling and mapping can be completed.  Underground drilling may also be completed.  Reports from representatives of South Mountain Mines, Inc. have indicated that the workings should be in excellent shape and a majority of ventilation pipe and electrical equipment was left in place after the shut down in 1986.


·

Surface mapping and sampling will continue resulting in the potential acquisition of additional claims and property positions.


·

Limited pre-feasibility work will commence and will, in part, evaluate the marketability of a concentrate from South Mountain.  The work completed by South Mountain Mines, Inc. will be utilized to the extent applicable.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities; Use of Proceeds From Registered Securities:


During 2007 the Company issued securities in transactions summarized below without registration of the securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). The Company believes that each transaction was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof, Regulation D promulgated thereunder ("Regulation D”): On February 15, 2007, Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. initiated a private offering of common stock to purchase, in the aggregate, 2,500,000 shares of common stock of Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc., par value $0.05, at a price of $0.05 per share. The offering was limited to Directors, Management, and key consultants for the Company. The offering was fully subscribed and the offering was closed on April 15, 2007.  In conjunction with the private placement, the Company obtained a fairness opinion in connection with the offering. All shares purchased are restricted and all investors were required to sign a Shareholder Rights Agreement. The Agreement generally provides that common stock purchased cannot be sold until the agreement terminates. Generally, the Shareholder Rights Agreement terminates upon the occurrence of the earlier of: (i) the closing of a consolidation, merger, other reorganization, or similar transaction of the Company with or into any other entity or entities pursuant to which the Restricted Shareholders of the Company subsequent to the consolidation, merger, or other reorganization or similar transaction shall own less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting securities of the surviving entity; (ii) a sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (iii) the effectuation of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the corporation is disposed of to other than Restricted Shareholders; or (iv) thirty-six (36) months from the date of the Agreement. Upon termination of the Shareholder Rights Agreement, the Company agrees to bear all costs and expenses of transfer (excluding any income tax or commissions) including removal of any restrictive stock legend, issuance of new stock certificates, or legal opinions. The only transfers allowed are restricted to transfers occurring on the death of a purchaser or transfers to another purchaser in the offering. A total of $125,000 was raised through the private placement, and there were no fees associated with the placement.

On July 20, 2007, a grant of 60,000 shares of Company stock was granted to Jerritt Collord, son of Jim Collord, President, in payment for part of his work to develop a computer-based database for the exploration data provided by South Mountain Mines, Inc. on the South Mountain Mine.  Development of the database was critical in facilitating the decision to acquire South Mountain Mines, Inc.  The grant was approved by Resolution of the Board, excluding Jim Collord.

ITEM 6 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PLAN OF OPERATION


The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand our financial condition. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and the accompanying notes (“Notes”).


Plan of Operation:


The financial condition of the Company was positive during 2007 and the metals commodity markets continued to be favorable during the year.  Positive advances were made with the exploration program that resulted in the acquisition of South Mountain Mines, Inc. and the staking of the unpatented TC Claims in the prolific Eureka – Battle Mountain gold trend in Nevada.  


The Company’s plan of operation for the next twelve months, subject to maintaining sufficient funds, is as follows:


During 2008 the Company is planning on focusing on advancing exploration work on their properties, with most of the focus being on their South Mountain Mine property.  In addition, the Company will continue grass roots exploration efforts in Idaho, Nevada, Washington State and Arizona looking for geologically and geochemically favorable areas.  The focus will remain on precious and base metals, and uranium.


At the Company’s other properties (TC Claims, Clover Mountain and West Tonopah), continued evaluation of their geologic setting will continue.  A minor rotary drill program at the favorable West Tonopah property may be undertaken, this dependent upon funding and drill rig availability.  In order to focus efforts on South Mountain, potential joint venture partners may be sought for the other properties.


In order to facilitate the next phase of Company growth and exploration work, in February 2008 the Company hired Eric T. Jones on a part time basis as Chief Financial Office and Vice President, Investor Relations and Business Development.  The Company also closed its Elko, Nevada and opened one in Boise, Idaho.  This location is more appropriate to carry on the expanded work program on South Mountain, and is conveniently located for G. Peter Parsley, Vice President of Exploration for the Company and President of Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc., and Eric T. Jones, both of whom live in Boise.  Jim Collord, President, will work out of his home office in Elko as well as the Boise office.


Results of Operations


The Company had no operations in 2007 or 2006. The Company had no production from operations for 2007 or 2006. For 2007 and 2006, gross revenues were $0.  General and administrative costs in 2007 increased by $221,759 over 2006, to $354,988 as of December 31, 2007, primarily as a result of the expanded work required to fully evaluate the potential acquisition of all the outstanding stock of South Mountain Mines, Inc.  The Company reported a net loss of $392,709 ($0.04 per share) in 2007, compared to a net loss of $171,879 ($0.02 per share) in 2006.  Net loss per share was based on weighted average number of shares of 10,665,585 or the year ended December 31, 2007 and 8,056,394 for the year ended December 31, 2006.


14







Liquidity and Capital Resources:


At December 31, 2007, we had cash position of $499,777.  The Company is planning of raising additional funds in 2008 to meet our current operating and capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, we have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we cannot assure that estimates and assumptions will remain unchanged. For the year ended December 31, 2007 net cash used for operating activities was $346,322, which includes $83,609 for 2007 shareholder maintenance, accounting, auditing and filing.  Our future liquidity and capital requirements will depend on many factors, including timing, cost and progress of our exploration efforts, our evaluation of, and decisions with respect to, our strategic alternatives, and costs associated with the regulatory approvals. If it turns out that we do not have enough money to complete our exploration programs, we will try to raise additional funds from a second public offering, a private placement or loans.


We know that additional financing will be required in the future to fund our planned operations. We do not know whether additional financing will be available when needed or on acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional financing when necessary, we may have to delay our exploration efforts or any property acquisitions or be forced to cease operations. Collaborative arrangements may require us to relinquish our rights to certain of our mining claims.


The Company has a positive cash-position and maintained its liquid assets in a Merrill Lynch Working Capital Management Account.  The Company’s cash and liquid assets are considered adequate to meet its current and near-term corporate obligations.  With the funds received from the private placement (see below) and the exercise of options ($57,800), expenses for 2007 and a portion of 2008 are adequate.  In order to carry out the detailed expanded exploration work at South Mountain and other properties, the Company will be undertaking at least one additional private placement in mid-2008.  With this, Management believes that its funds are sufficient to meet its exploration and corporate expenses incurred during the next 12 months.  


The Company purchased minor equipment during 2007 that will be utilized for their future corporate and exploration efforts.  Equipment purchased included small tools and a used small diesel generator for use at South Mountain.


Private Placement


On February 16, 2007 the Board initiated a private offering of 2.5 million shares the Company’s common stock, par value $0.05, at a price of $0.05 per share.  The offer was limited to Directors, Management and key consultants for the Company.  The price per share for the offering was established after receiving a fairness opinion from a third-party securities broker, Public Securities, Inc. of Spokane, WA.  All stock purchased under the private offering will be subject to certain restrictions, specifically the purchasers will be restricted from selling or otherwise transferring the stock for a period of three years, unless and only in the case of a merger, consolidation of the Company, or sale or disposition of all assets of the Company. An 8-K was filed with the SEC regarding the private offering on February 21, 2007. The private offering was completed by March 16, 2007.  A total of $125,000 was raised from the private offering with no associated fees.

Critical Accounting Policies:


In December 2001, the SEC requested that registrants (under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) list their three to five most “critical accounting polices” in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. We believe that the following accounting policies fit this definition:


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make a variety of estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and (ii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods covered by the financial statements.


Our management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.  As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the future resolution of the uncertainties increase, these judgments become even more subjective and complex.  Although we believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.  Changes in estimates and assumptions based upon actual results may have a material impact on our results of operation and/or financial condition.  Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to the financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A.


We have identified our critical accounting policies, the application of which may materially affect the financial statements, either because of the significance of the financial statement item to which they relate, or because they require management’s judgment in making estimates and assumptions in measuring, at a specific point in time, events which will be settled in the future.  The critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates which management believes have the most significant effect on the financial statements are set forth below:


·

Expenses and disclosures associated with accounting for stock-based compensation.  As of January 1, 2006, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”), which requires the measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument on the grant-date fair value of the award.  We have chosen to use the modified prospective transition method under SFAS 123(R).  We used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair market value of stock options issued under our stock-based compensation plan, which determines the recognition of associated compensation expense.  This valuation model requires the use of judgment in applying assumptions of risk-free interest rate, stock price volatility and the expected life of the options. The appropriate judgment is required in the assumptions and estimates used in this valuation.

·

Estimates regarding income taxes. We have significant current income tax assets recorded in our financial statements that are based on our estimates relating to federal and state income tax benefits. Our judgments regarding federal and state income tax rates, items that may or may not be deductible for income tax purposes and income tax regulations themselves are critical to the Company’s financial statement income tax items.  In 2006, the Company paid $503,514 in federal and state income tax for their 2005 income tax returns.  The Company expects a refund of income tax in the amount of $194,581 from operating loss carryback due to expenses incurred during 2007.



16






Other Information:


The Company had one full-time and one three-quarter time employees during the year ended December 31, 2007, and one full-time employee for the year ended December 31, 2006.  A third employee, Eric Jones, was hired in mid-February 2008 on a three-quarter time basis.


Off Balance-Sheet Arrangements:


During the 12 months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc.

(An Exploration Stage Company)


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. (An Exploration Stage Company) (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

THUNDER MOUNTAIN GOLD, INC.

(An Exploration Stage Company)


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Business Operations


Business Operations


Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. (“Thunder Mountain” or “The Company”) was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Idaho on November 9, 1935, under the name of Montgomery Mines, Inc.  In April 1978, the Montgomery Mines Corporation was obtained by a group of the Thunder Mountain property holders and changed its name to Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc., with the primary goal to further develop their holdings in the Thunder Mountain Mining District, Valley County, Idaho.  Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc., takes its name from the Thunder Mountain Mining District in Valley County, Idaho, where its principal lode mining claims were located.  In recent years the Company’s activities have been restricted to maintaining its property position and exploration activities.  During 2005, the Company sold its holdings in the Thunder Mountain Mining District and continued its exploration activities.  During 2007, the Company acquired the South Mountain Mines property in southern Idaho.  


Principles of Consolidation


The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated and any significant related party transactions have been disclosed.  


Income Taxes  


Income taxes are recognized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” whereby deferred income tax liabilities or assets at the end of each period are determined using the tax rate expected to be in effect when the taxes are actually paid or recovered.  A valuation allowance is recognized on deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some or all of these deferred tax assets will not be realized.


In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2006.  The purpose of FIN 48 is to clarify and set forth consistent rules for accounting for uncertain tax positions in accordance with SFAS 109, “Accounting For Income Taxes”.  The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of this interpretation are required to be reported separately as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the year of adoption.  The adoption of FIN 48 had no material impact on the financial statements.  The Company has evaluated all tax positions for open years and has concluded that they have no material unrecognized tax benefits.  


Exploration Stage Enterprise


The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting and according to the provisions of SFAS No. 7, “Accounting for Development Stage Enterprises,” as it devotes substantially all of its efforts to acquiring and exploring mining interests that will eventually provide sufficient net profits to sustain the Company’s existence.  Until such interests are engaged in commercial production, the Company will continue to prepare its financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with entities in the exploration stage.  


Investments


Marketable securities are stated at market value.  The market value is based on quoted market prices or other fair value estimates provided by third party portfolio managers.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Business Operations - (Continued)


Exploration Costs


Exploration costs are charged to operations when incurred.


Property and Equipment


Property and equipment are carried at cost.  Depreciation is computed using straight line depreciation methods with useful lives of three to seven years.  Major additions and improvements are capitalized.  Costs of maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the life of the associated assets, are expensed currently.  When there is a disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in net income.  


Accounting Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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.  


Comprehensive Income


In 1998, the Company adopted SFAS 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” issued by the FASB.  The Company reports accumulated other comprehensive income as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and in its statements of operations.


Earnings Per Share


The Company computes basic earnings per common share by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share are calculated by including all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents such as stock options.  At December 31, 2007, certain individuals had options to purchase 75,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.09 per share and 80,000 shares at $0.11 per share.


Share-Based Compensation


Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS 123(R), a revision of SFAS 123, “Share-based payment”.  SFAS 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees and directors, including grants of employee stock options, be measured at fair value and expensed in the statement of operations over the service period.  See Note 3 for additional information.  In addition to the recognition of expense in the financial statements, under SFAS 123(R), any excess tax benefits received upon exercise of options will be presented as a financing activity inflow rather than as an adjustment of operating activity as presented in prior years.  


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The purpose of this statement is to permit entities to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair market value that are not currently required to be measured at fair market value.  This statement also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities.  The Company is in the process of reviewing and evaluating SFAS 159, but does not believe that its adoption will have a material impact on the financial statements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Business Operations - (Continued)


In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, “Fair Value Measurement”, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The purpose of this statement is to define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, and expand disclosures about fair value measurements.  The Company is in the process of reviewing and evaluating SFAS 157, but does not believe that its adoption will have a material impact on the financial statements.  


In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  The Company is in the process of reviewing and evaluating SFAS 160, but does not believe that its adoption will have a material impact on the financial statements.  


In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141(R) “Business Combinations”, which is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  The Company is in the process of reviewing and evaluating SFAS 141(R), but does not believe that its adoption will have a material impact on the financial statements.


Reclassifications


Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior year’s data to the current presentation.  These reclassifications have no effect on the results of reported operations or stockholders’ equity.  


Fair Values of Financial Instruments


The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, and income taxes payable (receivable) approximated their fair values as of December 31, 2007 and 2006.  


Cash and Cash Equivalents

2.

Investments


The Company has adopted SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.”  SFAS No. 115 establishes generally accepted accounting principles for the financial accounting and measurement and disclosure principles for (1) investments in equity securities that have readily determinable fair market value and (2) all investments in debt securities.  


Investments in small local mining companies are stated at estimated fair value and classified as non-current investments.

Share-Based Compensation


Effective for January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method.  The Company previously accounted for these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB25) and related interpretations and disclosure requirements established by SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”.  


On October 15, 2006, options to purchase 285,000 shares of the Company’s restricted stock at $0.11 per share were issued to the Company’s five directors; and options to purchase 75,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock at $0.11 per share were issued to the Company’s accounting and legal consultants. The fair value of the options granted were recognized as Directors’ fees of $31,065 and Legal and accounting expense of $8,175 during the year ended December 31, 2006.


At December 31, 2007, 155,000 stock options were outstanding and not exercised.  


The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in:


Dividend yield

0%

 

Expected volatility

146%

 

Risk-free interest rate

4.76%

 

Expected term (in years)

5

 


The average risk-free interest rate is based on the five-year US treasury security rate in effect as of the grant date.  The expected volatility is determined using a weighted average of weekly historical volatility of the stock price over a period of one year prior to the grant dates.  


For the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company recognized $60,534, in share-based compensation expense.  


A summary of the status of outstanding and exercisable stock options as of the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, are as follows:

Share-Based Compensation – (Continued)


The weighted-average grant date fair value of the options granted during the year ended December 31, 2006 was $0.106 per share. There were no options exercised during 2006 and no options were granted during 2007.  The options granted during 2006 and 2005 contained an anti-dilution clause and resulted in 800,253 shares issued for the 580,000 options exercised in 2007.  The Company compared the fair value of the options pre- and post-modification to determine the incremental value.  Additional compensation of $60,534 was recorded as a result of the modification.  The income tax effect of anti-dilution compensation is immaterial.  The Company received $57,800 in cash from the options exercised in 2007.  The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised during the year ended December 31, 2007, was $182,279.


Treasury Stock


During 2005, and in connection with the Company’s sale of patented and unpatented claims in the Thunder Mountain Mining district, the Company purchased 1,883,525 shares of its own common stock for $376,705, and returned these shares to the Company’s treasury.  The shares were repurchased to increase the Company’s net book value per share and to successfully consummate the purchase of Dewey’s interest in the Thunder Mountain property.  The Company cancelled these shares during 2006 and reduced shares issued and outstanding.

Income Taxes


At December 31, 2004, the Company had $927,305 in net tax operating loss carryforwards that were used to offset taxable income in 2005.

The Company made an $8,000,000 donation to the Trust for Public Land during 2005 by selling property and mining claims at less than fair value.  The Trust for Public Land is a nonprofit public benefit corporation under Section 501(C)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and the donation qualifies as a charitable contribution.  The contribution deduction is limited to 10% of taxable income for the year in which the deduction was made and is permitted to carry over to the five succeeding tax year’s contributions that exceed the 10% limitation.  The deductions in succeeding years are also subject to the 10% limitation.  At December 31, 2007, $7,889,500 of charitable contribution deduction carryforwards remained.  Under FAS 123R the company has recognized approximately $100,000 of stock based compensation that is not deductible for tax purposes.  The charitable contribution carry forward and the stock based compensation would result in a recorded deferred tax asset of approximately $2,800,000.  However, since the company has no revenue from operations in recent years and has no current operations, the deferred tax asset is fully reserved and is not reflected herein.

Related Party Transactions


In July 2007, the Company granted 60,000 shares in payment for professional services to Jerritt Collord, son of Jim Collord, President of the Company.  Jerritt used his professional computer skills to digitize South Mountain Mines, Inc., exploration data in preparation for a three-dimensional resource model.  


Mr. Charles Cleveland, Attorney at Law, has been utilized by the Company as corporate counsel.  Through participation in the private placement, Mr. Cleveland has acquired over 5% of the outstanding common stock.

ITEM 8 – CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS  WITH ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE


During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the engagement of DeCoria, Maichel, and Teague, P.S. as the Company’s independent auditors.   In addition, the firm of Ted Sharp and Associates were engage to facilitate the Company’s efforts to achieve Sarbanes Oxley 404 compliance.


During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, there were no disagreements between the Company and its independent certified public accountants concerning accounting and financial disclosure.  


ITEM 8A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


At the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of, and with the participation of, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a – 15(e) and Rule 15d – 15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).  Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were adequately designed and effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports that it files or submits to the SEC under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in applicable rules and forms.


Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have also determined that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow for accurate required disclosure to be made on a timely basis.


Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external reporting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Management evaluates the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – “Integrated Framework.”  Management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 and concluded that it is ineffective in assuring that the financial reports of the Company are free from material errors or misstatements.


Management has identified three areas that contain material weaknesses and is taking action to remedy and remove those weaknesses in its internal controls over financial reporting:



34






·

Lack of segregation of duties of functions that contribute to the financial reporting processes. Due to the size of the Company and the associated limitations of staffing, segregation of duties issues may not be avoidable; however, the Company is evaluating engaging additional resources on a contract basis to alleviate these issues, and is committed to implement additional detective controls.  

·

Inadequate knowledge and expertise in the Company in the preparation of financial statements according to generally accepted accounting standards in the United States.  Management is evaluating engaging additional resources on a contract basis to add the appropriate expertise to its financial reporting system.

·

Lack of an independent board of directors, including a financial expert, and a Code of Ethics.  The current board of directors is evaluating expanding the board of directors to include a financial expert and independent directors.  The current board is composed of five members and may be expanded to as many as nine members under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.


Changes in internal controls over financial reporting


During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Background and experience:


E. James Collord has a MS degree in exploration geology from the Mackay School of Mines, University of Nevada, Reno (1980).  He has been a mining professional for over 35 years, employed in a variety of capacities, including mill construction superintendent, exploration geologist, mine construction and reclamation manager, and in environmental and lands management.  During the period 1975 through 1997, Jim worked for Freeport Exploration where he worked with a successful exploration team that discovered several Nevada mines.  Later in his Freeport career, he managed mining operations and lead permitting efforts.  For the period 1997 through 2005, Jim was Environmental and Lands Superintendent at Cortez Gold Mines, a large Nevada mine that was a joint venture between Placer Dome and Kennecott Minerals. After retirement from Cortez, and until his employment by Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. in April 2007, he managed the Elko offices for environmental and hydrogeologic consulting groups. He is the grandson of Daniel C. McRae, the original locator of the gold prospects in the Thunder Mountain Gold Mining District in the early 1900s.


G. Peter Parsley has a Masters in Science degree in geology from the University of Idaho.  He has been a mining professional since 1985 and has experience in gold exploration, mine development, construction, reclamation, and environmental compliance and permitting.  He was associated with the Thunder Mountain Project starting in1985 when he was project manager for the exploration program by USMX/Dakota Mining that defined the Dewey mineralization.  After that, he served as President and Exploration Manager for Triumph Gold Corporation that had interests in the United States, China and South America.  Mr. Parsley was appointed Vice President and Exploration Manager for Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. on April 1, 2006, and was appointed as President of Thunder Mountain Resources in early 2007.


Eric T. Jones has over 18 years of varied mining, financial and entrepreneurial experience.  He has held positions for Hecla Mining at their Rosebud Mine in Nevada and Stibnite, Idaho.  For Dakota Mining, Mr.



36






Jones was Mine General Manager for the Stibnite, Idaho gold heap leach operation.  He was also engaged as a manager of a successful Boise, Idaho-based private investment fund during the period 1997-2002.  Mr. Jones currently works with various successful entities in business development.  Due to Eric’s varied business experience, in 2006 the Board appointed him to the position of Secretary/Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer.  In February 2008 Eric went to work for Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. as Vice President of Investor Relations and Business Development, as well as Chief Financial Officer.


Dr. Robin S. McRae is a graduate of the Pacific College of Optometry and is a retired Boise optometrist.  He is also the grandson of Daniel C. McRae, and is the son of Robert J. McRae, author of numerous geological reports concerning the Thunder Mountain Mining District.  His knowledge of mining and related exploratory activities is derived from three generations of ownership of the Sunnyside group of claims that the Registrant previously owned.


Edward D. Fields is a professional mineral resource geologist with over 40 years of experience.  He was Manager of Mineral Resources for Boise Cascade Corporation (1983-1999), and was responsible for the discovery of a significant underground gold resource in Washington State.  He also worked for Kennecott Copper Company at their Ok Tedi Mine in Papua New Guinea and as Chief Geologist for the Duval Corporation at the Battle Mountain, Nevada copper-gold mine.  Mr. Fields has a MS degree in geology from the University of Wyoming.


Directorships in reporting companies:


None of the directors of the Registrant is a director of any other corporation subject to the requirements of Section 12 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934.


Significant Employees:


Peter Parsley was a full-time employee for the Company during 2007.  Jim Collord commenced working for the Company in April 2007 when work on evaluation of South Mountain intensified.  Jim is working as a partial time employee with pay rate equal to 75% of a typical salary of a President of an exploration company.  


Eric Jones became an employee in February 2008 (as discussed above).  Eric is also a partial time employee.


Family Relationships:


Dr. Robin S. McRae is the cousin of E. James Collord, the President of the Registrant.  Both are grandsons of the original locator of the Thunder Mountain Mining District, Valley County, Idaho.


Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings:


None of the officers and directors of the Registrant have been involved in any bankruptcy, insolvency, or receivership proceedings as an individual or member of any partnership or corporation; none have ever been convicted in a criminal proceeding or is the subject of a criminal proceeding presently pending.  None have been involved in proceedings concerning his ability to act as an investment advisor, underwriter, broker, or dealer in securities, or to act in a responsible capacity for an investment company, bank savings and loan association, or insurance company or limiting his activity in connection with the purchase and sale of any security or engaging in any type business practice. None have been enjoined



37






from engaging in any activity in connection with any violation of federal or state securities laws nor been involved in a civil action regarding the violation of such laws.


Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance:


Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company’s directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially owns more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of change in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company.  Officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.  To our knowledge, no persons failed to file on a timely basis, the identified reports required by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act during fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.


Audit Committee:


The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the oversight and management of the Company.  The Board does not have a separately-designated standing audit committee because the entire Board of Directors acts as the Company’s audit committee. The Board of Directors has determined that none of the Board of Directors can be classified as an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in Item 401(e) of Regulation S-B. The Board of Directors does not contain a member that can be classified as an "audit committee financial expert" under the referenced definition. The Board of Directors believes that attracting and retaining board members that could be classified as an "audit committee financial expert" is unlikely due to the high cost of such Director candidates.


Compensation Committee:


There is no Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.  Compensation of employees is reviewed and approved by the Board.


Code of Ethics:


The Board of Directors has not currently adopted a code of ethics.  The Board is undertaking the evaluation of a code of ethics and expects to finalize and adopt a code during 2008.  


ITEM 10 - EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION


Pete Parsley maintained his full-time position as Exploration Manager during 2007 at $96,000 per year.  Jim Collord was placed on salary as President starting in April 2007 at 75% of a full-time rate of $110,000 per year, or $80,000 per year.  


Summary Compensation Table
