EXPLANATORY NOTE

Eastern Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 (the “Report”) on the date hereof in reliance on Order Under Section 17A and Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Granting Exemptions from Specified Provisions of the Exchange Act and Certain Rules Thereunder (the “Order”) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 14, 2012 (Securities Exchange Act of 1934 – Release No. 68224).

The Company was not able to meet the SEC mandated filing deadline due to Hurricane Sandy. The Company’s legal counsel, Gottbetter & Partners, LLP (“G&P”), is located in New York, New York and its offices were closed for two days during the hurricane. G&P counsels and advises the Company with respect to the preparation of the Company’s periodic reports that it files with the SEC and, because of Hurricane Sandy, G&P was not able to provide this support service in a timely fashion. Because of this hurricane related delay, the Company was not able to file the Report until today.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Basis of Presentation and Merger

These financial statements represent the consolidated financial statements of Eastern Resources, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Elkhorn Goldfields, Inc. and Montana Tunnels, Inc. The term “ESRI” refers to Eastern Resources, Inc., before giving effect to the Merger (defined below), the term “MTMI” refers to Montana Tunnels Mining, Inc., a Delaware corporation, the term “EGI” refers to Elkhorn Goldfields, Inc., a Montana corporation, and the terms “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Eastern Resources, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including MTMI and EGI, after giving effect to the Merger.

On April 6, 2012, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with ESRI, a public company. ESRI was merged into EGI and MTMI. EGI and MTMI, as the Surviving Corporation, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of ESRI. We issued 180,000,000 shares of our common stock and 10,000,000 series A convertible redeemable preferred stock to acquire EGI and MTMI, which resulted in the stockholders of EGI and MTMI owning approximately 91.6% of our outstanding common stock and 100% of our series A convertible preferred stock after the consummation of the Merger.

On April 6, 2012, (i) MTMI Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation formed on February 27, 2012 and a wholly-owned subsidiary of ESRI (“MTMI Acquisition Sub”), merged with and into MTMI, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Elkhorn Goldfields LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“EGLLC” or “Parent”), with MTMI as the surviving corporation and (ii) EGI Acquisition Corp., a Montana corporation formed on February 27, 2012 and a wholly-owned subsidiary of ESRI (“EGI Acquisition Sub”), merged with and into EGI, a wholly-owned subsidiary of EGLLC, with EGI as the surviving corporation (collectively, the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger and the Split-Off, ESRI discontinued its pre-Merger business and acquired the business of MTMI and EGI as of April 6, 2012, and will continue the existing business operations of MTMI and EGI as a publicly-traded company under the name Eastern Resources, Inc.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2012. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. It is recommended that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in the Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 12, 2012 and the amendments to that filing on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC.

EASTERN RESOURCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1 - Description of Business

Elkhorn Goldfields, Inc. (“EGI”) and Montana Tunnels Mining, Inc. (“MTMI”) (collectively, “Elkhorn”) were formed for the purpose of acquiring, holding, operating, selling, and otherwise dealing in assets of mining operations with gold and other metal reserves and exploration potential. Elkhorn’s objective is to operate mines and expand its interests through acquisition and exploration. Elkhorn has one mineral property that has completed the permitting process. That property has developed the 650-foot underground access tunnel to reach the top of the ore body and is in the process of installing required infrastructure to allow access to the lower levels of ore. In addition, a second property has completed the permitting, except for posting the required reclamation bonding. Lastly, Elkhorn has several mineralized targets in the exploration stage. The permitted or nearly permitted mines include Golden Dream Mine (formerly referred to as the Sourdough Mine) and Montana Tunnels Mine (“Montana Tunnels”), and the mineralized properties available to develop mine plans are East Butte, Gold Hill/Mount Heagan, and Carmody (collectively, the “Elkhorn Project”), and the expansion of the previously operated Diamond Hill Mine. All the mines and properties are located in Jefferson County, Montana, with the exception of the Diamond Hill Mine, which is in Broadwater County, Montana. Elkhorn maintains its principal executive office in Denver, Colorado.

On April 6, 2012, EGLLC entered into a merger agreement with ESRI, whereas EGI and MTMI would become wholly owned subsidiaries of ESRI in exchange for 180,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. ESRI discontinued its pre-merger business and acquired the business of MTMI and EGI, and will continue the existing business operations of MTMI and EGI as a publicly-traded company under the name Eastern Resources, Inc.

On May 8, 2012, we declared a 2 to 1 forward stock split on our Common Stock outstanding in the form of a dividend, with a record date of May 17, 2012, with a payment date of June 8, 2012. We have reflected the effect of this forward stock split on a retroactive basis on all common stock share amounts disclosed throughout this report.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ESRI and its subsidiaries, EGI and MTMI. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, approximated fair value as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments.

The Company applies the guidance to non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. The financial and non-financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows:

Level 1:

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2:

Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability; or

Level 3:

Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The following assets are measured at fair value as of September 30, 2012:

Description	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3			Total

Ore Purchase Contract	$	-	$	-	$	(22,734,479	)	$	(22,734,479	)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Ore Purchase Contract: Based on contract terms, projected future gold prices, and discount rate commensurate with estimates of contemporary credit risk using a discounted cash flow model. The model is most sensitive to the future price of gold.

There were no changes to the valuation techniques used during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and year ended December 31, 2011.

The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the nine month period ended September 30, 2012:

Management’s Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 3 - Management’s Plan

At September 30, 2012, the Company has not generated any revenues to fund operations. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to meet financial requirements for mine development and raise additional capital, which will require the issuance of additional debt and/or equity securities. All of the company’s mining projects have been placed in care and maintenance until the Company secures additional financing. These factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 5 – Customer Deposits

During 2011, the Company received an up-front payment of $10,000,000, through an ore purchase agreement from a related party, dated April 15, 2011, to sell 80% of the first 41,700 ounces of gold and 6.5% of the gold produced after 250,000 ounces from the Golden Dream Mine at the Elkhorn Project. For each ounce of gold delivered under the Minerals Product Receivables Purchase Agreement (the "MPRPA"), the Company will pay the related party, subject to certain adjustments, (i) with respect to 80% of the first 41,700 ounces sold, the lesser of $500 per ounce or the latest COMEX spot gold price at the time of sale and (ii) with respect to each ounce of gold over 250,000 ounces, the lesser of $600 or the latest COMEX spot gold price at the time of sale. All pricing is subject to adjustment by an agreed upon inflation factor.

The Agreement included an embedded derivative, which is valued using a discounted cash flow model with the major inputs of: (i) a 25% discount rate, (ii) gold future pricing, (iii) April 15, 2011 measurement date, and (iv) and management’s forecast to produce 72,727 ounces by December 2014. The Company recognized a $13,025,932 loss on related party ore purchase agreement to reflect the difference between fair value of gold at the agreement date and the contract price of gold in the Agreement. As the result, the offering will be amortized by the Company with the delivery of the gold. The fair value of the embedded derivative fluctuates with changes in the price of gold. The change in fair value of the embedded derivative from the date of closing to September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 resulted in a cumulative loss of $8,300,853 and $5,793,013, respectively, which was recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the change in fair value of the derivative instrument.

During 2012, the Company received an up-front payment of $660,000, from an unrelated party, expanding the MPRPA. Pursuant to the agreement, the ounces of gold payable under the existing MPRPA will be increased by 2,000 ounces, from 33,360 ounces to a total of 35,360 ounces. The gold payable rate under the MPRPA will be reduced from 80% to 50% with a production cost paid to the company of $500 per ounce upon delivery. The percent of production that the MPRPA holder can purchase after the Golden Dream Mine has produced an initial 250,000 ounces has increased from 6.5% to 6.87% at a production cost of $600 per ounce paid to Elkhorn at delivery.

The up-front payments of $10,660,000 have been recognized as refundable customer deposits until the gold is sold. The refundable customer deposits are considered current due to the party’s making the payments having the right, upon written notice, at their option to demand repayment of the upfront cash deposit, without interest, for any shortfall in delivered ounces and the uncertainty of the commencement of ore production and the price of gold.

Convertible Bridge Loans

During February 2012, the Company entered into three convertible bridge loans with related parties totaling $1,800,000. The loans are unsecured and call for 12% annual interest on the outstanding unpaid principal. The loans are convertible into common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share, with the holder receiving one five-year warrant attached to each share. Two warrants will allow the holder the rights to acquire an additional share of common stock for $1.50. In addition, the holder will be issued warrants exercisable at $0.01 per share, exercisable at the time of closing a private placement offering (“PPO”) or the next round of funding. If the share value of the PPO is less than $1.25, an appropriate number of warrants may be exercised by the holder giving the holder additional shares at the cost of $0.01 per share to effect conversion at a 25% discount from the share price of the PPO or the next round of funding. If the PPO does not close within 180 days after the closing of the Merger (April 6, 2012), the holder may “put” the Conversion Shares to the Company at $2.00 per share. The loans matured during August 2012 and prior to that date, the Company did not make the required payments due under the terms of the convertible bridge loans which resulted in an event of default.

During April, 2012, the Company entered into a bridge loan with an unrelated party for $100,000. The loan is unsecured, has an annual interest rate of 12% on the outstanding, unpaid principal and matures in October, 2012. Prior to the maturity date, the holder may convert the entire principal and accrued interest then outstanding into common stock of the Company. Furthermore, should the Company secure financing prior to the maturity date; the bridge loan shall automatically convert into common stock of the Company at a cost of $1.00 per share. The holder will receive one five-year warrant attached to each share of stock. Two warrants will acquire an additional share of common stock for $1.50 of acquirer. In addition, the holder will be issued warrants exercisable at $0.01 per share, exercisable at the time of closing a private placement offering ("PPO") of acquirer or the next round of funding of acquirer. If the share value is less than $1.25, an appropriate number of warrants may be exercised by the holder giving the holder additional shares at the cost of $0.01 per share to effect conversion at a 25% discount from the share price of the PPO or the next round of funding .If the Company is unable to close a financing within 180 days after the closing of the Holder’s applicable closing date, the holder shall have the right to require the Company to purchase all of the Conversion Shares (the “Put Right”) for $1.50 per share (“Put Price”).Holder shall exercise the Put Right within 30 days after the maturity date. Subsequent to September 30, 2012 the Company did not make the required payments due under the terms of the bridge loan which resulted in an event of default.

At the discretion of the investor the outstanding principal amount and all accrued interest is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase common stock. The 950,000 warrants were valued at $774,129 applying the Black-Scholes pricing model. Using the value of the warrants the Company calculated the value of the beneficial conversion options to be $521,981 to be amortized over the remaining estimated life. The value of the warrants under this agreement was determined using the following assumptions: lives of 5 years, exercise price of $2.00, no dividend payments, 118.00% volatility, and a risk free rate of 0.83%.

The Company agreed to file the registration statement no later than ninety (90) calendar days following the final closing of the private placement and use its best efforts to ensure that such registration statement is declared effective within one hundred fifty (150) calendar days of filing with the SEC (the “Effectiveness Deadline”).

If the Company is late in filing the registration statement or if the registration statement is not declared effective by the Effectiveness Deadline, monetary penalties payable by the Company to each holder of registrable securities will commence to accrue and cumulate at a rate equal to one percent (1.0%) of the purchase price per share paid by such holder for the registrable securities for each full period of 30 days that (i) the Company is late in filing the registration statement or (ii) the registration statement is late in being declared effective by the SEC (which shall be pro-rated for any period less than 30 days); provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate of any such penalties exceed ten percent (10%) of the purchase price per share paid by such holder for the registrable securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payments shall be owed with respect to any period during which all of the holder’s registrable securities may be sold by such holder under Rule 144 or pursuant to another exemption from registration. Moreover, no such payments shall be due and payable with respect to any registrable securities we are unable to register due to limits imposed by the SEC’s interpretation of Rule 415 under the Securities Act.

The Company has agreed to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement through the earlier of second anniversary of the date the registration statement is declared effective by the SEC or until Rule 144 of the Securities Act is available to the holders to allow them to sell all of their registrable securities thereunder. The holders of any registrable securities removed from the registration statement as a result of any Rule 415 or other comments from the SEC shall have “piggyback” registration rights for the shares of common stock or common stock underlying such warrants with respect to any registration statement filed by us following the effectiveness of the registration statement which would permit the inclusion of these shares. As of September 30, 2012, the Company has accrued a $38,000 for potential penalties related to the registration of the shares from the private stock sale.

Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock

The authorized share capital of the Company includes 10,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) with a par value of $0.001 per share. The holder of the Preferred Stock is entitled to receive, out of funds legally available therefor, cumulative non-compounding preferential dividends at the rate of 12% non-cumulative of the stated value of $6.00 per share per year. No dividends may be declared or paid on the shares of common stock or any other capital stock of the Company so long as any shares of the Preferred Stock remain outstanding. As of September 30, 2012, no dividends have been declared on the Preferred Stock. However, the Company has accrued dividends in arrears totaling $3,500,000 to the benefit of the Preferred Stock shareholders. The Preferred Stock has been designated to pay off the push down obligation which has been collateralized by assets of the Company. As money is distributed to the holder of the Preferred Stock either as a dividend or in redemption, it must be used to pay the interest and principle on the push down obligation that is reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The Preferred Stock has been initially recorded at its estimated fair value of $8,009,150 based upon the discounted cash flows to be received by stock holders.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The Preferred Stock redemption rights can be exercised by the stockholder the earlier of October 6, 2012 or with the production of 25,000 ounces of gold. The redemption is not considered probable because the Company’s mines are on care and maintenance and redemption would place the Company in insolvency, which by state law is not permitted. As of September 30, 2012 the Company did not adjust the carrying value for any changes in the redemption value because redemption is contingent on ore production and not probable until the Company secures additional funding.

Stock Option Plan

The Company's stockholders approved the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan") on April 5, 2012 pursuant to which a total of 20,000,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance to eligible employees, consultants, and directors of the Company. The 2012 Plan provides for awards of non-statutory stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance share awards, and restrictive stock awards within the meaning of Section 422 of the IRC of 1986, as amended and stock purchase rights to purchase shares of the Company's common stock.

The 2012 Plan is administered by the Board, which has the authority to select the individuals to whom awards will be granted and to determine whether and to what extent stock options and stock purchase rights are to be granted, the number of shares of common stock to be covered by each award, the vesting schedule of stock options (generally straight line over a period of three years), and all other terms and conditions of each award. Stock options have a maximum term of ten years and incentive stock options have a maximum term of five years. It is the Company's practice to grant options to employees with exercise prices equal to or greater than the estimated fair market value of its common stock. The 2012 Plan shall terminate within ten years.

The fair value of each award is estimated on the date of grant. Stock option values are estimated using the Black Scholes option valuation model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected term of the option award, expected stock price volatility, and expected dividends. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. For purposes of estimating the expected term of options granted, the Company aggregates option recipients into groups that have similar option exercise behavioral traits. Expected volatilities used in the valuation model are based on the average volatility of stock for three publicly traded companies determined to be in a similar industry and with the same market capitalization as the Company. The risk free rate for the expected term of the option is based on the United States Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The valuation model assumes no dividends. The forfeiture rate is 15%. During the period ended September 30, 2012, the Company has recorded stock based compensation expense of $1,213,154 associated with stock options. As of September 30, 2012, the Company has estimated approximately $6,730,000 of future compensation costs related to the unvested portions of outstanding stock options. Stock based compensation related to common stock issued to a third party vendor in exchange for services of $536,913, with no forfeiture rate, was included in general and administrative expenses in the statement of operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2012. As of September 30, 2012, the Company has estimated approximately $536,000 of future general and administrative expense related to the unvested portions of outstanding stock options.

Recent Developments

Merger with MTMI and EGI

On April 6, 2012, ESRI, MTMI Acquisition Sub, EGI Acquisition Sub, MTMI, EGI and EGLLC entered into a merger agreement, which closed on the same date, and pursuant to which (i) MTMI Acquisition Sub merged with and into MTMI with MTMI as the surviving corporation and (ii) EGI Acquisition Sub merged with and into EGI with EGI as the surviving corporation. As a result of the Merger, MTMI and EGI became our wholly-owned subsidiaries.

As the result of the Merger and the change in business and operations of the Company to engaging in exploration and production activities in the precious metal industry, a discussion of the past financial results of ESRI is not pertinent, and the historical financial results of MTMI and EGI, the accounting acquirers, prior to the Merger are considered the historical financial results of the Company. The following discussion highlights our plan of operations and the principal factors that have affected our financial condition as well as our liquidity and capital resources for the periods described. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. The following discussion and analysis are based on MTMI’s and EGI’s financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with U.S. generally, accepted accounting principles. You should read the discussion and analysis together with such financial statements and the related notes thereto.

The following discussion and analysis provides information which management believes is relevant for an assessment and understanding of the statements of financial condition and results of operations presented herein. The discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited and unaudited financial statements and related notes and the other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Expansion of Minerals Product Receivables Purchase Agreement

On August 20, 2012, the Company entered into a letter of intent with a related party referenced above. Pursuant to this letter agreement, the ounces of gold payable under the existing Minerals Product Receivables Purchase Agreement (the "MPRPA") between the Company and the related party will be increased by 37,640 ounces, from 33,360 ounces to a total of 71,000 ounces. The gold payable rate under the MPRPA will be reduced from 80% to 50% with a production cost paid to the Company of $500 per ounce on delivery. The tail, which is due after the Golden Dream Mine has produced an initial 250,000 ounces, will be increased from 6.5% to 15% at a production cost of $600 per ounce paid to the Company at delivery. The Company will realize up to $12,500,000 from the forward sale of the full 37,640 ounces which will be recognized as a refundable customer deposit until the gold is sold.

Funds from the successful sale of these additional ounces of gold will be used to continue the development of the Company's Golden Dream Mine. The Company has completed approximately 650 feet of underground development, has complete surface infrastructure, and most recently installed a water treatment system giving it the capability to fully develop the Golden Dream Mine.

On September 28, 2012, the Company expanded its current MPRPA by an additional $660,000. The $660,000 payment has been recognized as a refundable customer deposit until the gold is sold. Pursuant to the agreement, the ounces of gold payable under the existing MPRPA will be increased by 2,000 ounces, from 33,360 ounces to a total of 35,360 ounces. The gold payable rate under the MPRPA will be reduced from 80% to 50% with a production cost paid to the company of $500 per ounce upon delivery. The percent of production that the MPRPA holder can purchase after the Golden Dream Mine has produced an initial 250,000 ounces has increased from 6.5% to 6.87% at a production cost of $600 per ounce paid to Elkhorn at delivery.

On October 30, 2012, the Company further expanded its MPRPA by an additional $100,000. Pursuant to the agreement, the ounces of gold payable under the existing MPRPA, which was last expanded on September 28, 2012, will be increased by an additional 303 ounces, from 35,360 ounces to a total of 35,663 ounces. The percent of production that the MPRPA holder can purchase after the Golden Dream Mine has produced an initial 250,000 ounces has increased from 6.87% to 6.93% at a production cost of $600 per ounce paid to Elkhorn at delivery.

To reflect these and previous charges to the MPRPA, on October 18, 2012 we amended and restated the MPRPA. The Amended and Restated MPRPA will provide for an increase of ounces of gold payable by 46,640 ounces to a total of 80,000 ounces. The gold payable rate under the Amended and Restated MPRPA will be reduced from 80% to 50% with a production cost paid to EGI of $500 per ounce on delivery. The tail, which is due after EGI’s Golden Dream Mine has produced an initial 250,000 ounces, will be increased from 6.5% to 15% at a production cost of $600 per ounce paid to Elkhorn at delivery. The forward sale of the additional 46,640 ounces of gold is projected to give us a cash infusion of $15,391,200 with a targeted closing date in the fourth quarter of 2012.

General Overview

Elkhorn Goldfields, Inc. (“EGI”) and Montana Tunnels Mining, Inc. (“MTMI”) (or combined as “Elkhorn”) were formed for the purpose of acquiring, holding, operating, selling, and otherwise dealing in assets of mining operations with gold and other metal reserves and exploration potential. Elkhorn’s objective is to operate mines and expand its interests through acquisition and exploration. Elkhorn has one mineral property, the Golden Dream Mine, that has completed the permitting process, is in the process of installing required infrastructure and has developed the 650 foot underground access ramp to reach the upper levels of the ore body and a second property, the Montana Tunnels Mine, that has completed the permitting except for posting the required reclamation bond. In addition, Elkhorn has several mineralized targets which are in the exploration stage. The permitted and nearly permitted mines consist of the Golden Dream Mine (formerly referred to as the Sourdough Mine) and the Montana Tunnels Mine. The mineralized targets are the East Butte, Gold Hill/Mount Heagan, Carmody, and the expansion of the previously operated Diamond Hill Mine. All the mines and properties are located in Jefferson County, Montana with the exception of the Diamond Hill Mine which is in Broadwater County, Montana. Elkhorn maintains its principal executive office in Denver, Colorado.

Results from Operations

Three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Revenue from the Sale of Gold

Elkhorn had no revenues from the sale of gold from the Golden Dream Mine or the Montana Tunnels Mine in 2012 or 2011. In August, 2011, they did realize gross revenue of $573,942 from the sale of 874 tons of stockpile of rock from past mining (resulting in 303 oz. of gold) from the East Butte mine, part of the Golden Dream Mine properties. The related ore processing costs of $133,863 are included in general & administrative expense in 2011.

Operating Expenses

General and administrative expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $1,295,156 and $4,305,989 as compared to $262,319 and $883,864 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. In June, 2011, development of the Golden Dream Mine commenced which resulted in the capitalization of payroll and related costs. As development of the Golden Dream Mine has been placed on care and maintenance temporarily halted in the second quarter of 2012, payroll and related costs are being expensed for the second and third quarters of 2012. Furthermore, general and administrative expenses increased in 2012 due to an increase in professional fees related to the Merger and compensation expense related to the employee stock option plan of $1,213,154, stock options related to a corporate advisory agreement of $536,913 and marketing warrants of $306,568 issued in 2012. This is offset partially by ore processing costs in August 2011 from the sale of stockpiled ore from past mining included in general & administrative costs in 2011.

Accretion expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $351,992 and $1,055,973 as compared to $307,843 and $1,069,461 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The decrease in 2012 as compared to 2011 is due to a reduction in accretion expense for reclamation of the L-Pit at Montana Tunnels Mine. Management re-evaluates annually the timing of the deferred site closure and reclamation costs related to Montana Tunnels Mining mill and mine sites. They anticipate that reclamation of the mine and mill would be completed in 2024 which is extended several years from previous estimates. This extension is due to management pursuing financing to commence development of the M-Pit, which would extend the mine life by 9 years. The total cost of reclamation is consistent with previous estimates, however by extending the timeline, has reduced the related accretion expense. Estimated future costs are discounted to their present value using a 12% discount rate.

Mine care and maintenance for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $285,517 and $684,641 as compared to $196,078 and $641,643 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in mine care and maintenance was due to certain expenses that were capitalized as part of the development of the Golden Dream Mine in 2011 and not being capitalized in 2012 due to the Golden Dream Mine development being in care of maintenance starting in the second quarter of 2012.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $0 and $2,082 as compared to $88 and $5,562 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. Depreciation, depletion and amortization is calculated on the units of production basis over the remaining proven and probable reserves of the mine. Montana Tunnels Mine ceased mining during 2008 after completion of the L-Pit and completed milling of stockpiled ore during April, 2009 at which time the mine was placed on care and maintenance. Accordingly, there was no depreciation expense related to Montana Tunnels Mine for the periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. Capitalized depreciation expense related to the development of the Golden Dream mine for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $78,678, and $4,270 respectively.

Total operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $1,932,665 and $6,048,685 as compared to $766,328 and $2,600,530 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Other Income and Expense

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $2,917,905 and $7,608,495 as compared to $2,020,861 and $6,062,583 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $8,637 and$48,613 as compared to $59 and $47,608 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. Interest income is earned from restricted cash held directly by a surety in the form of certificates of deposit related to reclamation obligations. Interest income earned throughout the year is remitted to the Company in the fourth quarter of each calendar year.

Amortization of debt discount for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $568,333 and $568,333 as compared to $0 and $0 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The amortization of debt discount in 2012 reflects expensing the remaining deferred financing from push down debt.

Loss on ore purchase derivative for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $1,407,694 and $1,407,694 as compared to $0 and $13,025,932 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The loss relates to MPRPA as the Company recognized the difference in the fair value of gold at the agreement date and the contract price of gold in the agreement. The change in fair value of the embedded derivative for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $2,095,776 and $2,507,840 as compared to $1,489,960 and $4,216,849 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The loss relates to the change in the fair value of the commodity future prices of the MPRPA from the date of closing to September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively to reflect the loss in the change in fair value of the derivative instrument.

Going Concern

As reflected in our financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we have generated significant losses and substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay for development and operations. We believe that the completion of a proposed $8.5 million private placement will be sufficient to get us to a point where the Golden Dream Mine will begin extracting and selling mineral and providing sufficient cash flow for operations of that mine, for care and maintenance of the Montana Tunnels Mine and to cover other general and administrative expenses; however, because we have not generated revenues since Montana Tunnels Mine shuttered mining in 2008, there is no assurance we will ever reach that point. Also, we believe we will be successful in our capital raising efforts; however, there can be no assurance we will be successful in raising additional debt or equity financing to fund our operations on terms agreeable to us.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We have funded our operations and mine development primarily through issuances of debt and equity securities. However, to reach full production of the Golden Dream Mine and begin the “M” pit production at Montana Tunnels Mine, we plan to raise $38.5 million in additional capital in 2012 and 2013, which will be deployed in two stages from Q4, 2012 thru Q2, 2014. We believe that raising the additional capital will allow the Golden Dream Mine to be in full production in the second Quarter of 2013 and for the Montana Tunnels Mine to be at or near commercial production sometime in the fourth quarter of 2014.

During Stage 1 (Q4, 2012 and Q1, 2013), we expect to invest $8.5 million of capital to enable the continued development of the Golden Dream Mine focusing on the continued development of the primary access ramp into the main ore body, to complete a raise bore tunnel as a secondary egress and escape way and to refurbish the Diamond Hill mill at MTMI’s site, readying it for production for ores from the Golden Dream Mine.

During Stage 2 (beginning in Q2 2013 through Q2 2014), we expect to invest an additional $30 million of capital to move forward the Montana Tunnels Mine “M” Pit expansion plan.

As additional equipment and financing becomes available in 2013, we plan to double the size of the MTMI earth moving fleet with the goal of removing four (4) million tons of waste rock per month. Our plan is to complete the Montana Tunnels Mine development and full mill start up by the second or third quarter of 2014.

These projections are based on certain assumptions including, but not limited to, our success in raising the required capital in our planned private placements. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in our capital raising efforts. Failure to reach our capital targets could adversely affect our ability to achieve our target projections.

Liabilities

At September 30, 2012 we had liabilities of $119,393,796 compared to liabilities of $103,259,388 at December 31, 2011. Total current liabilities were $72,810,157 at September 30, 2012 as compared to $61,607,537 at December 31, 2011. The increase in liabilities from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 is attributable to an increase in push down debt, interest and the redeemable obligation of EGLLC and its affiliate of $5,647,558, the addition of $1,900,000 in bridge loans, the addition of $432,260 of promissory notes, the increase in reclamation liability of $1,055,973 and the increase in the embedded derivative based on the contract terms, projected future gold prices and discount rate commensurate with estimates of contemporary credit risk using a discounted cash flow model as it relates to the MPRPA of $3,915,534. The remainder of the increase is from an increase in accounts payables and accrued liabilities of $3,197,923.

The refundable customer deposit, ore purchase agreement liability under the MPRPA is comprised of $10,660,000 of up-front consideration, a recognized loss of $1,407,694 as of September 30, 2012 and $13,025,932 as of December 31, 2011 reflecting the difference between the fair value of the commodity future prices of the gold at the agreement date and the contract price of gold. The change in fair value of the embedded derivative of $8,300,853 is a reflection of the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument contract from the date of closing to September 30, 2012. The change in fair value of the derivative instrument contract from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 was $2,507,840.

Our assets serve as collateral for multiple loans and a redemption obligation of EGLLC and MFPI*. Although we are not a maker or guarantor on the secured loans or redemption obligation, these loans and obligation have been “pushed down” to us as reflected in our financial statements. The redemption obligation was extended by MFPI to compensate and induce certain of its lenders who are also the Secured Lenders of EGLLC, obligating MFPI to purchase, at the Secured Lenders’ option, the $5,950,000 equity investment made in an investment fund that is an owner of EGLLC and is managed by Black Diamond Financial Group LLC (“Black Diamond”). Our mining properties and equipment have been pledged as collateral to the Secured Lenders under two filed and recorded mortgages. The loans of the EGLLC and MFPI are accruing interest between 15% and 18% per year. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the outstanding principal and interest on these loans was $51,990,850 and $46,343,292, respectively.

EGI also owes $919,779 in Series A 8% bonds. The bonds mature during July 2012, with interest accruing at 8%. In the case of default, interest on the bonds accrues at 12%. The Company recorded accrued interest of $182,003 as of September 30, 2012 and $106,358 as of December 31, 2011. The loans are currently in default and due on demand.

During 2012, the Company entered into a series of promissory notes with related parties for a total of $432,260. The notes mature on September 30, 2012 and accrue interest at a rate of 6%. The maturity dates of the notes have been extended to May 2013. During October, 2012, promissory notes totaling $107,060 were paid in full.

Cash; Funds Raised

Our consolidated cash and cash equivalents balance at September 30, 2012 was $579,855 as compared to $358,125 at December 31, 2011.

In February 2012, EGI entered into three convertible bridge loans with related parties totaling $1,800,000. The loans are unsecured and call for 12% annual interest on the outstanding unpaid principal and mature on August 29, 2012. The Company did not make the required payments due under the terms of the convertible bridge loans which resulted in an event of default.

In April, 2012, EGI entered into an additional bridge loan with an unrelated party for $100,000. This loan is unsecured, has an annual interest rate of 12% on the outstanding, unpaid principal and matures in October, 2012. Subsequent to September 30, 2012 the Company did not make the required payments due under the terms of the bridge loan which resulted in an event of default.

In May and June 2012, we raised $380,000 in a unit private placement.

On September 6, 2012, we issued a short term unsecured 6% promissory note due September 30, 2012 to Black Diamond Holdings, LLC (“BDH”), in the principal amount of $150,000. The maturity date on this note was extended to May 31, 2013.

During the third quarter of 2012, EGI entered into a series of promissory notes with related parties raising a total of $267,260. These notes accrue interest at a rate of 6% and originally had maturity dates of September 30, 2012 or October 18, 2012. The maturity dates of the notes have been extended to May 2013. During October, 2012, EGI promissory notes totaling $107,060 were repaid in full.

All of the funds raised by us and EGI through these private placements are being used for working capital purposes.

On August 13, 2012, EGI entered into a binding letter of intent with Black Diamond, the Manager of BDH, agreeing to the expansion of the existing Minerals Product Receivables Purchase Agreement (the “MPRPA”) between EGI and BDH. The revised MPRPA will provide for an increase of ounces of gold payable by 38,000 ounces to a total of 71,000 ounces. The gold payable rate under the MPRPA will be reduced from 80% to 50% with a production cost paid to EGI of $500 per ounce on delivery. The tail, which is due after EGI’s Golden Dream Mine has produced an initial 250,000 ounces, will be increased from 6.5% to 15% at a production cost of $600 per ounce paid to Elkhorn at delivery. The forward sale of the additional 38,000 ounces of gold is projected to give us a cash infusion of $12,500,000 with a targeted closing date of September 30, 2012. There can be no assurances, however, that EGI will be able to sell all of the additional ounces of gold under the amended MPRPA.

* “MFPI” - MFPI Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability Company whose sole members are Michael Feinberg and Patrick Imeson.

During September 2012, the Company received an up-front payment of $660,000, from an unrelated party, expanding the MPRPA. Pursuant to the agreement, the ounces of gold payable under the existing MPRPA will be increased by 2,000 ounces, from 33,360 ounces to a total of 35,360 ounces. The gold payable rate under the MPRPA will be reduced from 80% to 50% with a production cost paid to the company of $500 per ounce upon delivery. The percent of production that the MPRPA holder can purchase after the Golden Dream Mine has produced an initial 250,000 ounces has increased from 6.5% to 6.87% at a production cost of $600 per ounce paid to Elkhorn at delivery.

We will need, and we intend, to raise additional capital to provide financing for our ongoing operations and the operations of our two mining subsidiaries MTMI and EGI, to execute our business plan, build our operations and become profitable. Also, we will need to obtain additional capital to maintain our public company regulatory requirements. In order to obtain capital, we will need to sell additional shares of our common stock or debt securities, or borrow funds from private lenders or banking institutions. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional funding as necessary, we may have to suspend our operations temporarily or cease operations entirely.

Subsequent Event

During October 30, 2012, the Company expanded its MPRPA by an additional $100,000. Pursuant to the agreement, the ounces of gold payable under the existing MPRPA, which was last expanded on September 28, 2012, will be increased by an additional 303 ounces, from 35,360 ounces to a total of 35,663 ounces. The percent of production that the MPRPA holder can purchase after the Golden Dream Mine has produced an initial 250,000 ounces has increased from 6.87% to 6.93% at a production cost of $600 per ounce paid to Elkhorn at delivery.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

The management of Eastern Resources, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, consisting of Thomas H. Hanna, Jr., our then-Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, ESRI conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of March 31, 2012, the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, ESRI’s then-chief executive and chief financial officer concluded, as of the Evaluation Date, that ESRI’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the identification of a material weakness in ESRI’s internal control over financial reporting which is identified below.

Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. In evaluating the effectiveness of ESRI’s internal control over financial reporting, ESRI’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, ESRI’s then-sole officer concluded that, during the period covered by this quarterly report, ESRI’s internal controls over financial reporting were not operating effectively. Management did not identify any material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2012; however, it did identify the following deficiencies that, when aggregated, may possibly be viewed as a material weakness in ESRI’s internal control over financial reporting as of that date:

We did not have an audit committee. We are not currently obligated to have an audit committee, including a member who is an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K, under applicable regulations or listing standards; however, it is management’s view that such a committee is an important internal control over financial reporting, the lack of which may result in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of internal controls and procedures.

Management believes that the material weakness set forth in the item above did not have an effect on our financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board of Directors resulted in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.

Management's Remediation Initiatives

The material weaknesses identified above reflect ESRI’s management and control profile prior to the closing of the Merger. Following the closing of the Merger, we now have a segregation of duties at the executive level with a new chief executive officer and a chief financial officer with technical accounting experience. We also have a number of employees supporting these executive functions. Additionally, our Board of Directors is now comprised of four members, one of whom we have determined is independent.

We believe that this post-Merger structure plus other enhancement measures that we expect to introduce, including the establishment of an audit committee, will enable us to establish, monitor and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in ESRI’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

As initially disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2012, on May 24, 2010, the Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) issued an “Action Memorandum” which documented the determination that soil removal was necessary to mitigate threats posed by elevated levels of lead and arsenic in the soil located on property in close proximity to MTMI’s mine. The work of clean-up conducted by the EPA of the site commenced in June 2010 and was completed by August of the same year. On August 26, 2010, MTMI and the EPA entered into an “Access and Compensation Agreement” which detailed the responsibilities of both the EPA and MTMI with respect to the clean-up and disposal of contaminated soils from the site. On October 26, 2011 the EPA proposed a settlement of $380,000. On November 04, 2011, MTMI agreed to the EPA proposed amount of $380,000 but added a stipulation that the amount be payable over time depending upon the status of MTMI’s operations. On February 21, 2012, MTMI was informed by the EPA that the EPA had agreed to the total amount of $380,000 with payments to be made on a monthly schedule of $2,500 per month with a balloon payment at month 36.
