Balance, end of period
    7,491,525     $ 13,921,247       6,188,525     $ 13,346,387  
 
                               

  c)   During the period, the company completed a Private Placement offering of 1,000,000 units at $0.42 each. Each warrant comprised one common share of the Company and one share purchase warrant entitling the investor to purchase an additional common share at a price of $0.52 until August 14, 2005. 500,000 of the units were tax-flow through units.

A further 36,000 units were issued as Finders’ Fees in connection with this offering.

d) During the period, 267,000 warrants were exercised at a price of $0.58 per share.

e) Stock based compensation

In the nine month period the Company granted 515,000 fixed share purchase options. The options entitle the holder to purchase a common share of the Company for $1.20 until October 21, 2008. 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 $102,900 against income, which was the estimated fair value of 150,000 share purchase options granted to non-employees.

Notes to Financial Statements, Page 3

4. Share Capital (Continued)

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 69%, and an expected life of 5 years. Had compensation cost for the 365,000 share purchase options granted to employees been recorded, based upon the fair value of share options, additional compensation expense for the nine month period ended October 31, 2003 would have been $250,390. The pro forma loss per share, assuming this additional compensation expense, would be as follows:

                 
    October 31, 2003
 
  3 months   9 months
 
       
Loss for the period
    426,917       537,691  
Loss per share
  $ (0.06 )   $ (0.08 )

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.

f) Private placement offering

In the period the Company offered by way of a private placement 2,000,000 units at a price of $1.27 per unit. Each unit comprises one common share and a two-year share purchase warrant exercisable at $1.58 per share.

5. Related Party Transactions
