Property, Equipment and Mineral Development

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost.  Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred, and renewals and improvements that extend the useful life of assets are capitalized. Depreciation on property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the assets' estimated useful lives as follows:

 

Mining equipment              

7-8 years

Vehicles                                

5 years

Office equipment               

4-10 years

 

At December 31, 2013 and 2012 we owned a Mill located near Eureka, Nevada.  The Mill has been idle since acquisition; therefore, no depreciation expense has been recognized on the Mill.  Our other fixed assets were fully depreciated during 2012, thus we had $0 and $51 depreciation expense during 2013 and 2012, respectively.
