Balance, end of period
     
 
       

On November 23, 1998, the Company granted Coral Gold Corp.(“Coral”) a company with

Directors in common, an option to earn 50% of the Company’s 50% interest in the Bralorne and Loco properties and in the Avino-Bralorne joint ventures. In order to earn its interest, Coral paid $500,000 on acquiring the option, paid $200,000 during the year ended January 31, 2000 and is required to make further payments of $200,000 per year until 2003, and $250,000 in 2004. The Company has not received the required payments. During the period Coral abandon the option.

On July 31, 2002 the Company agreed to transferred its interest in the project to Bralorne-Pioneer Gold Mines Ltd. a public company with Directors and management in common, in consideration of $1 and Bralorne assuming the full amount of the debenture principal and interest payable under the terms of the debentures. The transfer is subject to regulatory and shareholder approval.

4. Share Capital

Issued during the period:
                               
For cash
    250,000       150,000                  
For debt
                    885,839       336,589  
Balance, end of period
    5,713,525     $ 13,081,787       5,463,525     $ 12,931,788  
 
                               

  c)   During the period, 250,000 options were exercised at a price of $0.60 per share.

d) Stock based compensation

In the nine month period the Company granted 446,000 fixed share purchase options. The Company accounts for its grants under the fair value method. Under the fair value method, options granted to non-employees are charged against income at the time of granting while no compensation expense is recorded for options granted to employees when the exercise price of the Company’s employee stock awards is not less than the fair value of the options at the date of grant. During the period the Company charged compensation costs of $22,600 against income, which was the estimated fair value of share purchase options granted to non-employees. The Company granted 792,911 share purchase options to employees at $0.58 per share until October 23, 2007. The exercise price of all options granted to employees was not less than the fair value of the options at the date of the grant. The Company granted 50,000 share purchase options to non-employees exercisable at $0.58 per share until October 23, 2007.

The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 3%, dividend yield of 0%, volatility factor of 65%, and an expected life of 5 years. Had compensation cost for the stock based employee compensation been recorded, based upon the fair value of share options, additional compensation expense for the nine month period ended October 31, 2002 would have been $178,992. The pro forma loss per share, assuming this additional compensation expense, would be as follows:

4. Share Capital, continued

                 
    October 31, 2002
 
  3 months   9 months
 
       
Loss for the period
    242,427       331,483  
Loss per share
  $ (0.04 )   $ (0.06 )

Pro forma results may be materially different than actual results realized.

The Black-Scholes valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which are fully transferable and highly traded. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

Outstanding share purchase options, which were issued prior to February 1, 2002, have neither been charged to income nor included in the calculation of pro forma loss, in accordance with Section 3870 of the CICA Handbook, which is to take effect prospectively.

5. Debentures Payable

On August 31, 1995, the Company together with Bralorne-Pioneer (collectively the “Issuers”) completed a joint offering of 2,000 Mortgage Bond units. Each unit consisted of one U.S. $1,000 face value debenture. The debentures bear interest at 7% payable annually, and by amendment the debentures mature and are due on October 25, 2002. The debentures are not redeemable prior to maturity date. The debentures were secured by a first charge over the Issuers’ interest in the Bralorne project. The debentures are joint and several obligations of the Issuers, with recourse against Avino Limited to Avino’s interest in the Bralorne project.

During the period, the Company transferred its interest in the Bralorne project and other assets of the related joint venture to Bralorne-Pioneer Gold mines Ltd, in a non-cash transaction. Consideration for the transfer was the assumption by Bralorne-Pioneer Gold Mines Ltd. of the Company’s 50% share of the secured, limited recourse debentures and accrued interest thereon. (See Note 4).

6. Related Party Transactions

Related party transactions not disclosed elsewhere in these statements are as follows:

a) During the period the company paid, or made provision for the future payment of the following amounts to related parties:

i) $13,422 to a private company with two common directors for administrative expenses
