The current delay resulting from incomplete prior records and new operation additions, the project is nearing completion 7. Commenced due diligence on a number of complementary business opportunities, including on-line precious metal trading and precious metal recycling and recovery, both of which would expand the Company's operations and services, thereby increasing revenue potential and shareholder value. 8.

Preliminary financials will be posted to the company's web site before official filing of final documents with the OTC Disclosure Service.
The increased demand for all precious metals, particularly gold, is supported by the recent World Gold Council (WGC) complete Third Quarter Gold Market Outlook that reports increased 2010 worldwide demand across all sectors. Demand is seen coming from the jewelry sector, as well as from institutions, including central banks, and a jump in industrial demand "on the back of renewed growth in the electronics industry, due to the majority of semi-conductors being wired by gold."
This growing demand is expected to continue to grow through 2011 and beyond which has already placed the Company's broad range of Precious Metal services in high demand and additional agreements and business unit activations are anticipated. The Company believes the G7 governments, with the USA as the leader, will continue to debase their currencies thereby further pushing gold and silver back into the forefront as inflationary safe-havens and value-storage.
The Company will continue to provide regular updates regarding progress on the implementation of its new business model.
