PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Siberian Energy Group Inc.

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Siberian Energy Group Inc. (a development stage company) as of March 31, 2011, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, and the cumulative period of development stage activity (January 1, 2003 through March 31, 2011).  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Siberian Energy Group Inc. as of December 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated April 15, 2011, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements with an explanatory paragraph describing conditions that raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the balance sheet from which it has been derived.

SIBERIAN ENERGY GROUP INC. (A Development Stage Company)
 

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
 

1.  Basis of Presentation:

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Siberian Energy Group Inc. (the Company) include the accounts of the Company and its 100% owned subsidiaries.  These financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) interim reporting, and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.  These consolidated financial statements and notes herein are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, include all the adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial positions, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.  Accounting policies used in fiscal 2011 are consistent with those used in the cumulative period of Development Stage Activity – January 1, 2003 through December 31, 2010.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.  Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of operating results for any future interim period or the full year.
 
2.  The Company and Description of Business:

The Company has been in the development stage since its inception of its current endeavors.

Kondaneftegaz

The Company, through its subsidiary Kondaneftegaz, LLC (KNG), has been engaged in the business of exploiting and developing certain oil and gas and other petroleum products licenses issued for a period of five years by Russia’s subsurface management authorities in October 2007. The two licensed areas lie in the Karabashsky zone in the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous area of the Russian Federation.  KNG has its principal place of business in the city of Khanty-Mansiysk, Russia.
 
KNG was acquired together with the vast collection of geological information data (oil and gas properties, unproved) on the Karabashski zone of Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous district of the Tuymen region of the Russian Federation through the issuance of shares and warrants as follows:
 
Restricted common shares issued for
     
  oil and gas properties, unproved in 2006
    27,143  
Restricted common shares issued in
       
  connection with license acquisition by KNG in 2007
    28,571  
Restricted common shares issued in 2006
    2,857  
Total restricted common shares issued
    58,571  
         
Stock warrants issued in 2006
       
for purchase option
    3,572  
 
As a result of the purchase, a calculated acquisition value of $3,928,000 was assigned to the oil and gas properties, unproved that considered the approximate market value of the stock issued ($122.50) on the transaction date including $3,675,000 assigned to 30,000 shares issued in 2006 and $253,000 assigned to 3,572 stock warrants issued.  A value of $1,320,000 was assigned to the acquisition of licenses by KNG based on the market value of the 28,571 shares on the date of issue.

On September 30, 2008, the Company sold a 51% interest in KNG to a Russian oil and gas company, and a 5% interest to two Russian individuals for $223. This Russian company has committed to lead the exploration works on the licensed areas by accepting the operator’s role and agreeing to provide funding for KNG’s activities. Simultaneously with the sale of 56% of KNG, the Company made available all geological data to the operator to be used in the program of geological studies in the region. Since no consideration was received and the Company has no intent to further utilize this geological data, a loss on the deemed disposition of these unproven oil and gas properties of $3,928,000 has been recorded.  Operations of KNG prior to September 30, 2008 are included in the consolidated accounts of the Company in the accompanying financial statements.  Effective September 30, 2008, the Company's 44% investment in KNG is recorded on the equity method of accounting.  At September 30, 2008, KNG’s assets were $13,572 and liabilities were $135,740.  Since 56% of the Company was sold for a nominal amount, a non-cash impairment charge of $525,947 has been recorded to reduce the carrying value of the 44% investment in KNG to zero.

 
F-8

 
KNG previously prepared and coordinated with the Russian authorities an exploration works program on the Karabashski-61 and Karabashski-67 license areas.  Certain preliminary exploration activities were performed on the licensed areas over the past several years; however, KNG subsequently determined to cease exploration activities on the licensed areas.  As such, we do not anticipate KNG generating any revenues moving forward. The Company is currently evaluating spinning or selling off its investment in KNG.

Zauralneftegaz

Zauralneftegaz Ltd. (ZNG, Ltd.) is the Company’s 50% owned joint venture with Baltic Petroleum Limited, UK created in 2005, which operates through its Russian subsidiary Zaural Neftegaz (ZNG).  ZNG has been involved in oil and gas research activities in the Kurgan region of the Russian Federation. During 2003 through 2008 it has completed seismic studies and drilling programs in the Kurgan region, after which date Kurgan operations were put on hold until further economical advisability is confirmed. The Company believes ZNG, Ltd. has created value through the geological results of the two exploratory wells and other data gathered in the area, and ZNG, Ltd. is considering its options with regard to realizing this value by either a farm out or a direct sale of geophysical and seismic data to a third party operating in the area.

Activities of ZNG for the period March 2003 through October 2005 are included in the consolidated accounts of the Company in the accompanying financial statements.  Effective October 14, 2005, the Company’s investment in Joint Venture has been recorded on the equity method of accounting.  Since the cumulative losses of the Joint Venture exceed the Company’s investment, the investment asset is carried at zero value as of and through March 31, 2011.

Both equity investments are recorded at zero on the accompanying balance sheets.  Although management is hopeful, the Company is uncertain when and if any income will be realized from these investments.  On a moving forward basis, the Company anticipates further business expansion.  It is constantly evaluating new mineral resource assets, both explored and unexplored, as part of its growth strategy.

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 13, 1997, and previously provided comprehensive outpatient rehabilitation services to patients suffering from work, sports and accident related injuries.  All activities related to the Company’s previous business ventures were essentially discontinued prior to January 1, 2000.  Predecessor names of the Company since its inception include Trans Energy Group, Inc., King Incorporated and Advanced Rehab Technology Corporation.
 
3.  Income Taxes:

At March 31, 2011, the Company effectively has U.S. tax net operating loss carryforwards totaling approximately $4,488,000.  These carryforwards may be used to offset future taxable income, and expire in varying amounts through 2031.  No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements, however, because the Company believes there is at least a 50% chance that the carryforwards will expire unused.  Accordingly, the $1,571,000 estimated cumulative tax benefit of the loss carryforwards have been offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

4.  Loss Per Common Share:

Basic and diluted loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Shares issuable for common stock options and warrants may have had a dilutive effect on earnings per share had the Company generated income during the periods through March 31, 2011.
 
5.  Going Concern:

These financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, however, since inception of its current endeavor in 2003, it has not earned substantial revenues and is considered to be in the development stage, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Management is of the opinion that sufficient financing will be obtained from external sources to provide the Company with the ability to continue its operations in the near term.

For the cumulative period ended March 31, 2011, the Company has obtained cash financing from organizing stockholders and employees in the form of loans, advances, and deferred salaries.  However, there can be no certainty as to availability of continued financing in the future.  Failure to obtain sufficient financing may require the Company to reduce its operating activities.  A failure to continue as a going concern would then require stated amounts of assets and liabilities to be reflected on a liquidation basis which could differ from the going concern basis.

6.  Reverse Stock Split:

On February 28, 2011, the Company, with the consent of its stockholders, approved a 1:70 reverse stock split of the outstanding common stock effective March 15, 2011.  Additionally, the Company re-authorized 100,000,000 shares of $.001 par value common stock and 10,000,000 shares of $.001 par value preferred stock.  Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted as if these changes to the Company’s capital structure occurred on January 1, 2003.

7.  Subsequent Events:

On April 27, 2011, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the Agreement) with Rare Minerals Corporation (RMC), a privately held corporation, to acquire all of the outstanding shares of RMC.  This agreement became effective on May 11, 2011, which is the date the Company took control of RMC.

RMC was formed as a Nevada corporation on December 9, 2010. RMC’s wholly-owned subsidiary is OOO Koklanovskoe (Koklanovskoe), a Russian limited liability company. Koklanovskoe holds a license (KUG00939TE) for the Koklanovskoe Molybdenum-Tungsten deposit in the Kurgan Region of the Russian Federation. Through the acquisition of this license, the Company plans to enter the market for the exploration and production of rare and semi-rare earth metals and precious minerals.

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of RMC by issuing 65,200,000 shares of restricted common stock (representing 99% of the Company’s then outstanding common stock) to the RMC shareholders. As a result of the Agreement, control of the Company changed to the former RMC Shareholders, subject to certain voting restrictions in relation to the appointment of the Company’s Board of Directors during the first year subsequent to the effective date of the Agreement.

The fair value of the common stock issued to RMC shareholders on May 11, 2011, the acquisition date, was $.37 per share which equates to $24,124,000 of common stock being issued.

RMC was not formed until December 9, 2010, therefore the Agreement would have had no effect on the three months ended March 31, 2010.

On April 22, 2011, the Company entered into employment contracts with two senior management employees that set annual compensation at a combined $255,000 per annum.  These agreements expire at various times during 2011.

Effective May 5, 2011, David Zaikin resigned as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Michael Hellenbrand was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer to fill the vacancy left by Mr. Zaikin’s resignation. Mr. Zaikin continues to serve as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company.

On June 15, 2011, the Company purchased certain geological data from two shareholders for 1,500,000 shares of restricted common stock.  The fair value of the common stock issued to these two shareholders on this date was $.23 per share which equates to $345,000 of common stock being issued.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure through the date these financial statements were available to be issued, June 21, 2011.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT:

Siberian Energy Group Inc. was formed as a Nevada corporation on August 13, 1997, as Advanced Rehab Technology Corporation. Subsequently, on March 9, 2001, the Company changed its name to Talking Cards, Inc.; on February 12, 2002, the Company changed its name to Oysterking Incorporated; on December 3, 2002, the Company changed its name to 17388 Corporation Inc., at which point the controlling interest of the Company was sold and a new board of directors was appointed; on May 5, 2003, the Company changed its name to Trans Energy Group Inc.; and on December 3, 2003, the Company changed its name to Siberian Energy Group Inc.

On September 17, 1999, the Company affected a 1-for-30 reverse stock split. A subsequent 3-for-1 forward split was consummated on October 2, 2000 and a further 1:2 reverse stock split was affected on May 2, 2005.  As described below, effective March 15, 2011, the Company affected a 1:70 reverse stock split with the shares held by remaining shareholders rounded up to a minimum of 100 shares on a per shareholder basis (collectively the “Stock Splits”). All share amounts, trading prices, and option and warrant exercise prices, subsequently listed are retroactively adjusted to reflect these Stock Splits unless otherwise provided.

In the spring of 2003, a majority of the Company's shares were purchased by new shareholders who stepped into the management of the Company and defined its new business direction as an oil and gas exploration company.

On May 9, 2003, the Company entered into an Acquisition Agreement (the "Acquisition Agreement") by and among the Company, Zaural Neftegaz, a Russian corporation ("ZNG"), the shareholders of ZNG and Oleg Zhuravlev, President of ZNG, and a former Director of the Company. Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, the Company acquired a 51% interest in ZNG by issuing to ZNG 28,571 shares of the Company's common stock. In June 2004, the Company purchased the remaining 49% of ZNG in exchange for 98,571 shares of the Company's common stock, making ZNG a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company had no affiliation with ZNG prior to the acquisition in May 2003.

The activities of ZNG were carried out through the Joint Venture Shareholders' Agreement ("Joint Venture") entered into on October 14, 2005 with Baltic Petroleum (E&P) Limited ("BP" or "Baltic") and Zauralneftegaz Limited, the joint venture company ("ZNG, Ltd."), as contemplated by the Option Agreement, as amended (the "Option"). The Company closed the Joint Venture and transferred 100% of the outstanding stock of ZNG to ZNG, Ltd. in connection with the terms and conditions of the Joint Venture. As a result of such transfer, the Company holds 50% of the outstanding stock of ZNG, Ltd., which holds 100% of the outstanding stock of the Company's former wholly-owned subsidiary, ZNG.  ZNG, Ltd. operates through ZNG and is engaged in the exploration and development of, production and sale of, oil and gas assets in the Western Siberian region of the Russian Federation and the former Soviet Union.   
   
On December 13, 2006, we entered into an Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Key Brokerage LLC ("Key Brokerage"), pursuant to which we purchased 100% of the stock of Kondaneftegaz LLC ("KNG"), a Russian limited liability company, which was created in 2004 for the purpose of oil and gas exploration in the Khanty-Mansiysk district of Western Siberia, Russia. In addition to acquiring 100% of the stock of KNG, we received the geological information package on the Karabashski zone of Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous district (Tuymen region of Russian Federation) ("Geological Data").

On or about September 30, 2008, we entered into an Agreement of Purchase and Sale with Limited Liability Company Neftebitum, a Russian limited liability company, and two Russian individuals, pursuant to which we sold fifty-six percent (56%) of the ownership interest of KNG, as described in greater detail below.

Description of KNG

KNG was created in 2004 for the purpose of oil and gas exploration in the Khanty-Mansiysk district of Western Siberia, Russia. In October 2007, KNG was awarded two oil and gas exploration licenses in Khanty-Mansiysk region in Western Siberia, Russia for the Karabashsky-61 and Karabashsky-67 blocks located in the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Region, Russian Federation.  The license areas together cover 166,000 acres and are situated in the territory of the Urals oil and gas bearing area.  KNG also has eight more outstanding applications for exploration licenses filed with the Russian authorities, which auctions have not occurred to date.

The right to use the subsurface resources of the Karabashski-61 and Karabashki-67 Fields is granted for the term of validity of the license (five (5) years), from the date of its state registration (October 22, 2007), subject to the completion of certain exploration activities on the license blocks. The term of use of the subsurface resources can be extended to finish exploration and estimation of deposit or for liquidation work, if the terms of usage of the subsurface resources are not breached.
   
On or about September 30, 2008, we entered into an Agreement of Purchase and Sale with Limited Liability Company Neftebitum, a Russian limited liability company (“Neftebitum”), Sergey V. Prokopiev, an individual and Russian citizen, and Oleg G. Shelepov, an individual and Russian citizen (collectively, the “Purchasers” and the “Sale Agreement”).  The Company’s Board of Directors approved and ratified the Company’s entry into the Sale Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein on or about October 30, 2008.  Pursuant to the Sale Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to the Purchasers an aggregate of fifty-six percent (56%) of the registered capital of KNG for aggregate consideration of 5,600 Russian Rubles (approximately $223).  Neftebitum agreed to purchase a 51% interest for total consideration of 5,100 Russian Rubles (approximately $203) and Mr. Prokopiev and Mr. Shelepov agreed to each purchase a 2.5% interest for consideration of 250 Russian Rubles each (approximately $10).

Pursuant to the Sale Agreement, the Sellers were obligated to maintain KNG’s main priority of performing geological studies and exploring for hydrocarbon deposits in the Karabashsky-61 and Karabashsky-67 blocks (the “Blocks”).  Further, the Purchasers were obligated to provide financing, by way of direct financing or third-party loans, in the amounts necessary to comply with the licensing agreements for the Blocks.  The Company’s and the Purchasers’ relationship is regulated by an Operating Agreement, which was entered into in connection with the Sale Agreement.  Lastly, the Sale Agreement provides that in connection with Neftebitum obtaining a majority interest in KNG, it is obligated to be a guarantor and accept joint responsibility with KNG for repayment of any financing the Purchasers obtain for KNG.

KNG previously prepared and coordinated with the Russian authorities an exploration works program on the Karabashski-61 and Karabashski-67 license areas.  Certain preliminary exploration activities were performed on the licensed areas over the past several years; however, KNG subsequently determined to cease exploration activities on the licensed areas.  As such, we do not anticipate KNG generating any revenues moving forward. The Company is currently evaluating spinning or selling off its investment in KNG.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company owned a 44% interest in KNG. Effective September 30, 2008, the Company's 44% investment in KNG is recorded on the equity method of accounting. The operations of KNG prior to September 30, 2008 are included in the consolidated accounts of the Company in the accompanying financial statements.

After careful consideration of the current financial position of KNG, the Company has applied an impairment charge to the value of investment in KNG which resulted in carrying it at zero value.
 
Description of ZNG

ZNG has been involved in the oil and gas research activities in the Kurgan region of the Russian Federation. During 2003-2008 it has completed seismic studies and a drilling program in the Kurgan region of Siberia, Russia. The Company believes ZNG, Ltd. has created value through the geological results of the two exploratory wells and other data gathered in the area and ZNG, Ltd. is considering its options with regard to realizing this value in connection with a potential direct sale of geophysical and seismic data to a third party operating in the area.

Between 2003 and 2007, ZNG carried out extensive seismic and gas seismotomographic studies on its 4 licensed blocks acquired in 2003 through a government tender (which have since expired): the Privolny, Mokrousovsky, West-Suersky and Orlovo-Pashkovsky blocks, and drilled 2 exploratory wells on the Privolny and Mokrousovsky blocks. Based on the interpretation of seismic and seismotomographic surveys and analysis of samples from the wells, ZNG prepared a comprehensive analysis of geological resources of the Kurgan region.  Both the Privolny-1 and Mokrousovsky-1 studies confirmed the presence of hydrocarbons and contributed greatly to the understanding of geological resources in the region. However, a substantial amount of further exploration studies and work is required before a conclusion on the future potential of the blocks can be drawn. Upon the expiration of the license terms of these blocks in March 2008, ZNG kept the preferential right to re-apply for the licenses.  
 
The Company’s investment in the Joint Venture is recorded on the equity method of accounting.  Since cumulative losses of Joint Venture exceed the Company’s investment, the investment asset is carried at zero value as of and through March 31, 2011.

As of the date of this filing, Baltic has advised us that Baltic and as a result, ZNG, has withdrawn from any further exploration activities in the Kurgan region and that they will not expend any further resources on such activities moving forward.  Baltic has however advised us that they believe they may be able to sell ZNG’s previously prepared seismic and geological studies and data in the future, assuming other exploration companies in the area desire to purchase such information, of which there is no assurance.
   
Joint Venture

The operations of the Joint Venture were funded via loans provided to ZNG, Ltd. and ZNG by Caspian Finance Limited ("Caspian"), a financing company wholly-owned by Baltic.  Loans are guaranteed by ZNG, Ltd.’s holdings in ZNG.  As of March 31, 2011, the total funding provided to ZNG, Ltd. and ZNG by Baltic was equal to approximately $23.5 million plus accrued interest of approximately $5 million. The loans are not dilutive to the Company's ownership in ZNG.

RMC Operations:

RMC, which the Company acquired ownership of pursuant to the Share Exchange (described above), which was consummated in May 2011, was formed as a Nevada corporation on December 9, 2010. RMC’s wholly-owned subsidiary is OOO Koklanovskoe, a Russian limited liability company (“Koklanovskoe”). Koklanovskoe holds a license (KUG00939TE) for the Koklanovskoe Molybdenum-Tungsten deposit in the Kurgan Region of the Russian Federation (the “License” and the “Deposit”).

Through the acquisition of the License, the Company plans to enter the market for the exploration and production of rare and semi-rare earth metals and precious minerals.

The Deposit is a molybdenum-tungsten stockwork deposit that was identified and subsequently explored between 1985 and 1988.  The Deposit is located in the Russian Urals, approximately 45 kilometers (“km”) south-east from the town of Kamens-Uralskiy which is also the nearest rail head.  The Deposit area can be accessed via all seasonal roads from the town of Kataysk which is located approximately 30 km to the north-east.

Recent Events:

Effective May 5, 2011, David Zaikin resigned as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Michael Hellenbrand was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company to fill the vacancy left by Mr. Zaikin’s resignation.  Mr. Zaikin continues to serve as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company.

In April 2011, and effective as of January 1, 2011, the Company entered into extensions to the Employment Agreements of David Zaikin, its Chairman and Elena Pochapski, its Director and Chief Financial Officer, which Employment Agreements were extended until December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively.  Mr. Zaikin’s Employment Agreement extension set his annual compensation at $180,000 and Ms. Pochapski’s Employment Agreement extension set her annual compensation at $75,000.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of any contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates. We base our estimates on various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe the following critical accounting policy affects our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:

Going Concern

The Company's financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, since inception of its current endeavors in 2003, the Company has not earned any revenues from production of hydrocarbons or minerals and is considered to be in the development stage, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is of the opinion that sufficient financing will be obtained from external sources to provide the Company with the ability to continue its operations. Since inception, the Company has obtained cash financing from organizing stockholders and employees in the form of loans, advances and deferred salaries, as well as through financing previously received of $25,000 to $85,000 per month in management fees from its Joint Venture, which management fees the Company has not received since October 2007, and which the Company does not believe will ever resume. There can be no certainty as to availability of continued financing in the future. Failure to obtain sufficient financing may require the Company to reduce its operating activities. A failure to continue as a going concern would require stated amounts of assets and liabilities to be reflected on a liquidation basis which could differ from the going concern basis.

PLAN OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NEXT TWELVE MONTHS

We are a development stage company which is seeking opportunities for investment in and/or acquisition of small to medium companies in Russia, specifically in the oil and gas industry.

We currently hold investments in ZNG, Ltd. and KNG.  Both companies were previously involved in oil and gas exploration in the Western Siberia region of Russia; provided however, as described above, ZNG, Ltd. has advised us that it will no longer undertake any further exploration activities in Western Siberia and we have recently been advised that KNG has determined not to undertake any further exploration activities. 

In May 2011, as described above, we obtained ownership of RMC and its rights to the Deposit.  The Company plans to explore the Deposit (funding permitting) in the hopes of discovering commercial quantities of molybdenum, tungsten, iron ore, gold, fluorite, bismuth, copper and other rare and semi-rare earth metals and precious minerals.  The Company believes that the Deposit is potentially suitable for open-pit mining.

Additionally, moving forward, the Company may focus on the acquisition of additional assets which involve less exploration risk; however, the Company has not entered into any definitive agreements to date, and there can be no assurance that any such agreements will be entered into on favorable terms, if at all.
 
Historically, we have obtained cash financing from organizing stockholders in the form of loans and advances. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of 2005 and the fourth quarter of 2010, we restructured much of our debt through the issuance of shares of our common stock to our creditors and in certain cases, in 2005, obtained waiver letters, postponing certain of our liabilities until such time as we have generated sufficient profits to pay such debts.

In connection with the Joint Venture, the Company previously received monthly management fees, which varied from $25,000 to $85,000 per month. Due to the “transition period” of the Joint Venture’s exploration activities and subsequent decision of Baltic not to pursue further exploration activities through ZNG, no management fees have been paid since October 2007, and the Joint Venture will not pay any management fees in the future.  As the Company will not receive any management fees moving forward, the Company believes that its organizing stockholders will continue to provide financing for the Company, of which there can be no assurance.

 
-8-

 
In the past, we have obtained cash financing from organizing stockholders in the form of loans and advances, as a result, amounts totaling $172,027 and $125,631 were payable to the stockholders as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.   

There can be no certainty as to the availability of continued financing in the future. Failure to obtain sufficient financing may require us to reduce our operating activities. A failure to continue as a going concern would then require stated amounts of assets and liabilities to be reflected on a liquidation basis which could differ from the going concern basis.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011, COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010

We had no revenues or other income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 or 2010.    The Company does not anticipate generating revenues until such time, if ever, as we are able to generate sufficient funding to continue our business plan and complete exploration and mining activities on the Deposit, and then only if such property contains commercial quantities of minerals and we are able to successfully extract and sell such materials, of which there can be no assurance.

We had total expenses of $161,255 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to total expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010, of $146,894, which represented an increase in total expenses from the prior period of $14,361 or 9.8%.

The main reasons for the increase in total expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010, were a $12,320 or 20.5% increase in professional and consulting fees, to $72,471 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $60,151 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, and a $10,869 or 360% increase in marketing and other fees, to $13,885 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $3,016 for the three months ended March 31, 2010,  , which increases were mainly due to certain one-time expenses associated with the Company’s 1:70 reverse stock split and the cost of mailing notice of and holding the Company’s 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, as well as fees paid to relist the Company on the OTCBB in March 2011, offset by a $8,400 or 10.3% decrease in salaries to $73,400 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $81,800 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, due to a decrease in the value of the monthly shares due to the Company’s President, Helen Teplitskaia for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010, and the termination of the employment of the Company’s Moscow, Russia representative.

We had a net loss of $161,255 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to a net loss of $146,894 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, an increase in net loss of $14,361 or 9.8% from the prior period, which increase in net loss was due to the increase in total expenses as described above.  
   
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had total assets consisting solely of current assets of $676 as of March 31, 2011, which included cash of $450; and prepaid expenses and other current assets of $226.

On April 27, 2011, with a closing date of May 11, 2011, we entered into the Share Exchange with RMC (described in greater detail above under “Rare Minerals Acquisition”) and acquired rights to the Deposit, which will be shown as a long-term asset on the Company’s balance sheet as of June 30, 2011 in the Company’s Form 10-Q Quarterly Report for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.
 
 
-9-

 
We had total liabilities of $520,371 as of March 31, 2011, which were solely current liabilities and which included $172,027 of accounts payable to related party stockholders in connection with those shareholders paying certain of our expenses from the period between September 2010 and March 31, 2011 and advisory fees accrued to a shareholder of the company for the period between October 2010 and March 31, 2011; $76,425 of accounts payable to Baltic in connection with a $29,000 loan advanced to the Company from Baltic, interest on such loan, and certain other expenses owed to Baltic; $50,753 of accounts payable to others for advisory and professional services rendered; and $221,166 of accrued payroll, which included $90,000 payable to our Chief Executive Officer, David Zaikin, $37,524 payable to our Chief Financial Officer, Elena Pochapski, and $69,242 of accrued salary payable to our former Chief Executive Officer, Shakeel Adam.

We had negative working capital of $519,695 and a total pre-development and development stage accumulated deficit of $16,263,011 as of March 31, 2011.

In October 2010, the Company entered into Debt Conversion Agreements with nine (9) creditors of the Company (the majority of which were shareholders and related parties of the Company), pursuant to which such creditors agreed to convert an aggregate of $2,554,459 of debt owed to such creditors by the Company into 331,748 shares of restricted common stock of the Company, at the rate of one share for each $7.70 of debt converted (the “Conversion”).

Because our cumulative losses associated with the operations of ZNG exceeded our investment as of the date of the Joint Venture, ZNG, Ltd. is carried on our balance sheet at $-0- as of March 31, 2011. Our investment in ZNG, Ltd. will exceed $-0- at such time as ZNG, Ltd. has cumulative earnings sufficient to repay all loans to Baltic as provided in the Joint Venture, if ever.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company owns a 44% interest in KNG. The Company’s investment in KNG is recorded on the equity method of accounting effective October 1, 2008. After careful consideration of the current financial position of KNG, the Company applied an impairment charge to the value of the investment in KNG which resulted in carrying it at zero value.
   
We had $17 of net cash flow used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011, which was mainly attributable to adjustments to reconcile $161,255 of net loss, offset by an inc
