PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Name, Incorporation and Principal Offices

We were incorporated on May 16, 2006 under the laws of the State of Nevada under the name Harborside Ventures, Inc. Effective September 16, 2008 we changed our name to Impala Mineral Exploration Corp., effected a 10 for 1 stock split of our common stock and increased our authorized capital to 5,000,000,000 shares of common stock having a $0.001 par value.

Our principal offices are located at

520-470 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 1V6; our telephone number is (604) 689-7178.

Overview

We are an

exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. In May 2006, we acquired a 100% undivided interest in four quartz claims located in the Whitehorse Mining District of the Yukon Territory.

The property underlying the quartz claim interests does not contain any known mineral deposits or reserves of minerals. Accordingly, exploration of the property is required before we can determine whether any commercially viable mineral deposit may exist. Our plan of operations is to carry out preliminary exploration work on the property in order to ascertain whether advanced exploration is warranted to determine whether the property possesses commercially exploitable mineral deposits. We will not be able to determine whether or not the property contains a commercially exploitable mineral deposit, or reserve, until appropriate exploratory work is done and an economic evaluation based on that work concludes economic viability.

We have obtained a geological report on the property underlying our mineral claim interests. The geological report has recommended an exploration program consisting of two phases: phase one of our planned exploration program is estimated to cost CDN$13,750 and phase two of our planned exploration program is estimated to cost CDN$8,470 (approximately $11,259 and $6,936, respectively, based on the noon buying rate as certified by the Bank of Canada on April 13, 2009 of CDN$1.2212 : US$1.00). We have determined to proceed with the recommended exploration program and, if warranted, complete full exploration of the property underlying our mineral claim interests. At December 31, 2008, we had cash of $nil and a working capital deficit of $115,517. As such, we will require financing in order to complete phase one of our recommended work program as well as any further exploration to determine whether sufficient mineralized material, if any, exists to justify eventual mining and production. Even if we determine that a mineral deposit exists on the property, an economic evaluation must be completed before the economic viability of commercial exploitation of the property could be completed. Both advanced exploration and an economic determination will be contingent upon the results of our preliminary exploration programs and our ability to raise additional financing in order to proceed with advanced exploration and an economic evaluation. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain any additional financing to fund our exploration activities.

Exploration Stage Company

We are considered an exploration or exploratory stage company because we are involved in the examination and investigation of land that we believe may contain valuable minerals, for the purpose of discovering the presence of ore, if any, and its extent. Because we are an exploration stage company, there is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on the property underlying our mineral claim interests, and a great deal of further exploration will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility for our future exploration is determined. We have no known reserves of any type of mineral. To date, we have not discovered an economically viable mineral deposit on the property, and there is no assurance that we will discover one.

Our Mineral Claim Interests

We entered into a Quartz Claims Acquisition Agreement with Oro Quest Ltd. effective as of May 25, 2006, whereby we obtained a 100% interest in four quartz claims located in the Whitehorse Mining District of the Yukon Territory, Canada, in consideration of: (i) the repayment by us to Oro Quest of all staking and quartz claims application costs to the Whitehorse Mining District of the Yukon Territory which were incurred by Oro Quest in acquiring the claims and (ii) the issuance by us to Oro Quest of an aggregate of 60,000 common shares of our common stock at a deemed issuance price of $0.005 per share (on a post-reverse split basis).

The quartz claims that are the subject of our mineral property interests are known as the "DIO Claims" and are located in the Whitehorse Mining District in the Yukon Territory, Canada. The claims are accessed from the Pilot Mountain Subdivision Road, a subdivision along the north side of the Takhini Hot Springs Road approximately five kilometres from its junction with the North Klondike Highway, known locally as the Mayo Road. A power line crosses the Pilot Mountain Subdivision Road approximately 400 metres from its junction with the Takhini Hot Springs Road. About 200 metres east off the Pilot Mountain Road along the power line, the baseline of the DIO Claims is intersected.

The Claim information is as follows:

Claim Name	Grant Numbers	Expiry Date
DIO 1	YC 54160	October 18, 2009
DIO 2	YC 54161	October 18, 2009
DIO 3	YC 54162	October 18, 2009
DIO 4	YC 54163	October 18, 2009

The following figure shows the location of the DIO Claims:

Property Underlying Our Mineral Claim Interests

We obtained a geological report on the property underlying our mineral claim interests, which report was prepared by Larry W. Carlyle, P. Geol., F.G.A.C., in December, 2006. The following description of the property, its history and geology is taken from the contents of such report. This report makes reference to a previous report written by Mr. Carlyle and others relating to the property underlying our mineral claim interests.

Property Description, Location and Access

The quartz claims that are the subject of our mineral property interests are known as the "DIO Claims" and are located in the Whitehorse Mining District in the Yukon Territory, Canada. The claims are accessed from the Pilot Mountain Subdivision Road, a subdivision along the north side of the Takhini Hot Springs Road approximately 5 kilometres from its junction with the North Klondike Highway, known locally as the Mayo Road. A power line crosses the Pilot Mountain Subdivision Road approximately 400 metres from its junction with the Takhini Hot Springs Road. About 200 metres east off the Pilot Mountain Road along the power line, the baseline of the DIO Claims is intersected.

Regional Geology

From the early 1990s to the present, the Yukon Geological Survey has done significant work to extend geological units from British Columbia, through the Yukon Territory, and into Alaska. Prior mapping of the area in the 1960s had the bedrock geology in the area of the DIO Claims broken into two sedimentary units: Upper Triassic Lewes River Group and Lower Jurassic Laberge Group. Geological reinterpretation has these rocks overlying the Devonian to Permian Stikine Terrane. The northwest striking syncline mapped in the 1960s approximately 6 kilometres north of the property is probably expressed by the U-shaped exposure of mid-Cretaceous pluton.

Property Geology and Property Work

The chief country rock on the DIO Claims is a blocky fine-grained grey limestone having a west strike and a slight southwest dip. The copper, silver, gold, lead and minor molybdenum mineralization is within vuggy quartz-calcite stringers thought to have a hydrothermal origin. The mineralization is contained in the minerals: galena, chalcopyrite, tetrahedrite, arsenopyrite, and molybdenite.

The mineralized stringers are believed to be filling shears created in the competent limestone by the intrusion of dark grey to green andesite dykes containing up to 1% pyrite. The dykes have strikes of Azimuth 315 degrees to 325 degrees and dips of 82 degrees to 87 degrees to the northeast. Strong bleaching, argillic and limonitic alteration was observed in the mineralized shears.

The claims are north along strike from the Whitehorse Copper Belt, situated west of the Yukon Territory capital, Whitehorse, and parallel the Yukon River valley. The Copper Belt has seen extensive development since the staking of the Copper King Claim in 1898. The belt is known to extend for at least 30 kilometres (18.6 miles); from just south of the junction of the South Klondike Highway (Carcross Road) with the Alaska Highway to west of the Whitehorse subdivision of Porter Creek. As stated in his report, Mr. Carlyle does not believe that this is the full extent of the belt because he has visited a similar copper showing just southeast of Aishihik Lake while he worked as a geologist for Whitehorse Copper Mines from 1972 to 1974.

The Little Chief and Middle Chief deposits, which were being mined during Mr. Carlyle's employment with Whitehorse Copper Mines, were considered to be roof-pendants of skarn altered meta-sediments within Cretaceous granite and granodiorite. Magnetite and chlorite were the most common skarn minerals but there were also lesser amounts of garnet, diopside and other skarn minerals.

Although no skarn mineralization was recognized by Mr. Carlyle and others who visited the DIO Claims during 1987 and 1988, there may be skarn mineralization present that went unobserved at that time.

The presence of the best mineralization at the Little Chief and Middle Chief Mines being within roof pendants is significant in exploring the DIO Claims. The syncline about six kilometres north of the property (See "Regional Geology") could indicate the existence of roof pendants on the claims. The mineralized fractures located on the claims having a similar strike to that for the syncline increases this probability.

To Mr. Carlyle's and the Company's knowledge, little or no further work has been done on this property since the work done during the 1987 - 1988 seasons.

Our Planned Exploration Program

Our planned exploration program consists of two phases, as described below:

Phase One

Phase one of our planned exploration program consists of prospecting, geological mapping, geophysical and geochemical surveys. The budget for this is broken down as follows:

Proposed Budget: Phase One
Prospecting and geological mapping (7 days @ $500/day)	CDN$ 3,500
Follow-up geophysical and VLF-EM (very low frequency electromagnetic) surveys (5 days @ $700/day)	3,500
Soil and rock sampling (100 samples @ $20/sample)	2,000
Room and board, transportation and shipping	1,500
Report writing and supervision (4 days @ $500/day)	2,000
Contingency (10%)	1,250
Total:	CDN$13,750

Phase Two

Phase two of our planned exploration program consists of back hoe, blast or hand trenching and sampling of mineralized showings located in phase one.

Proposed Budget: Phase Two
Small back hoe rental ($70/hr (wet) @ 2 days @ 10 hrs/day)	CDN$ 1,400
Mobilization and demobilization costs	500
Explosives	600
Geologist and labourer/blaster (4 days @ $700/day)	2,700
Rock samples (50 samples @ $20/sample)	1,000
Room and board, transportation and shipping	500
Report writing and supervision (2 days @ $500/day)	1,000
Contingency (10%)	770
Total:	CDN$8,470

The total estimated costs of phase one of CDN$13,750 and phase two of CDN$8,470 equal approximately $11,259 and $6,936, respectively, based on the noon buying rate as certified by the Bank of Canada on April 13, 2009 of CDN$1.2212 : US$1.00.

Plans Regarding Exploration Program

We expect to commence phase one of the exploration program in the summer of 2009, depending on the availability of personnel and equipment and the availability of financing. Upon completion of phase one, and subject to the results of phase one, we intend to undertake phase two in the summer of 2010, subject to the availability of financing.

We will determine whether to proceed with further exploration work upon completion of phase two. In completing this determination we will assess whether the results of the entire exploration up to that time are sufficiently positive to enable us to obtain any additional financing that we will then require. This analysis will include an assessment of the market for financing of junior mineral exploration projects at the time of our assessment.

To date, we have spent no exploration expenditures on the property underlying our mineral claim interests, other than amounts spent in completing the geological report on the property. We have not chosen anyone specific to conduct exploration work on the property. We intend to choose a geologist recognized in the Yukon Territory who has had experience working in the regional area of the property.

Compliance with Government Regulation

We will be required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of governmental authorities and agencies applicable to the exploration of minerals in the Yukon Territory. Work permits, if needed, will be subject to review by the proper authorities. At this time the proposed phase one of our planned exploration would not need permits to proceed.

Pursuant to the Quartz Mining Act (Yukon Territory, Canada), to keep quartz claims in good standing in the Yukon Territory there must be CDN$100 (approximately $82 based on the noon buying rate as certified by the Bank of Canada on April 13, 2009 of CDN$1.212 : US$1.00) of exploration expenditures performed per claim each year. In event that work is not performed on a quartz claim, the CDN$100 per claim can be paid in lieu of performing such work. In the case of our claim interests, CDN$400 of exploration expenditures must be spent before October 18, 2009 in order to maintain the claims subject to our interests in good standing for an additional year. In the event that more than CDN$100 per claim is spent, this can be pooled to keep the claim in good standing for more than one year.

Any testing work undertaken on the property underlying our mineral claim interests must be conducted in a manner that minimizes disruption to the environment and must comply with applicable legislation including the Waters Act (Yukon Territory).

Additional approvals and authorizations may be required from other government agencies, depending upon the nature and scope of the proposed exploration program. The amount of these costs is not known at this time, and because we do not know the size or quality of any resource or reserve at this time, it is impossible to assess the impact of any capital expenditures on earnings or our competitive position.

Competition

We are a junior mineral resource exploration company. We compete with other mineral resource exploration companies for financing and for the acquisition of new mineral properties. Many of the mineral resource exploration companies with whom we compete have greater financial and technical resources than those available to us. Accordingly, these competitors may be able to spend greater amounts on acquisitions of mineral properties of merit, on exploration of their mineral properties and on development of their mineral properties. In addition, they may be able to afford more geological expertise in the targeting and exploration of mineral properties. This competition could result in competitors having mineral properties of greater quality and interest to prospective investors who may finance additional exploration and development. This competition could adversely impact on our ability to achieve the financing necessary for us to conduct further exploration of our mineral properties.

We will also be competing with other junior mineral exploration companies for financing from a limited number of investors that are prepared to make investments in junior mineral exploration companies. The presence of competing junior mineral exploration companies may impact on our ability to raise additional capital in order to fund our exploration programs if investors are of the view that investments in competitors are more attractive based on the merit of the mineral properties under investigation and the price of the investment offered to investors.

We will also be competing with other junior and senior mineral companies for available resources, including, but not limited to, professional geologists, camp staff, helicopter or float planes, mineral exploration supplies and drill rigs.

Employees

As of the date of this report we have no significant employees other than the officers and directors described in Item 10 of this report. We intend to retain independent geologists and consultants on a contract basis to conduct the work programs on the property underlying our mineral claim interests in order to carry out our plan of operations.

Research and Development Expenditures

We have not incurred any research or development expenditures since our incorporation.

Subsidiaries

We do not have any subsidiaries.

Patents and Trademarks

We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patent or trademark.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to other information in this annual report in evaluating our company and its business before purchasing shares of our common stock. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed due to any of the following risks. The risks described below may not be all of the risks facing our company. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial may also impair our business operations. You could lose all or part of your investment due to any of these risks.

Risks related to our company
Because we have only recently commenced business operations, we have no history of earnings and no foreseeable earnings, and we may never achieve profitability or pay dividends.

We were incorporated on May 16, 2006, and to date have been involved primarily in organizational activities, evaluating resource projects and acquiring our interest in certain mineral claims in the Yukon Territory, Canada. Therefore, our ability to operate our business successfully remains untested. If we are successful in developing the property that is the subject of our mineral claim interests, we anticipate that we will retain future earnings and other cash resources for the future operation and development of our business as appropriate. We do not currently anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Payment of any future dividends is solely at the discretion of our board of directors, which will take into account many factors including our operating results, financial conditions and anticipated cash needs. For these reasons, we may never achieve profitability or pay dividends.

We have yet to attain profitable operations, and because we will need additional financing to fund our exploration activities, our accountants believe there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We have incurred a net loss of $206,817 for the period from May 16, 2006 (incorporation) to December 31, 2008, and we have no revenues to date. At December 31, 2008, we had cash of $nil and a working capital deficit of $115,517. As such, we will need to generate additional financial resources in order to complete phase one of the exploration program recommended by our consulting geologist as well as any further exploration. There can be no assurances that we will continue to obtain additional financial resources and/or achieve profitability or positive cash flows. If we are unable to obtain adequate additional financing, we will be required to curtail operations and exploration activities. These factors raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.

Our financial statements included with this annual report have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. Our auditors have made reference to the substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern in their audit report on our audited financial statements for the period from incorporation to December 31, 2008. If we are not able to achieve revenues, then we may not be able to continue as a going concern and our financial condition and business prospects will be adversely affected.

Because of the speculative nature of exploration of mining properties, there is substantial risk that no commercially exploitable minerals will be found and our business will fail.

We are in the initial stages of exploration of the property underlying our mineral claim interests, and thus have no way to evaluate the likelihood that we will be successful in establishing commercially exploitable reserves of valuable minerals on the property. Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new mineral exploration companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The search for valuable minerals as a business is extremely risky. We may not find commercially exploitable reserves of minerals on the property underlying our mineral claim interests. Exploration for minerals is a speculative venture necessarily involving substantial risk. The expenditures to be made by us on our exploration program may not result in the discovery of commercial quantities of ore. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the exploration of the property underlying our mineral claim interests that we plan to undertake. Problems such as unusual or unexpected formations, the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labour, and other risks involved in mineral exploration, often result in unsuccessful exploration efforts. In such a case, we would be unable to complete our business plan. In addition, any determination that the property contains commercially recoverable quantities of ore may not be reached until such time that final comprehensive feasibility studies have been concluded that establish that a potential mine is likely to be economically viable. There is a substantial risk that any preliminary or final feasibility studies carried out by us will not result in a positive determination that the property can be commercially developed.

We will require significant additional financing in order to continue our exploration activities and our assessment of the commercial viability of the property underlying our mineral claim interests. Even if we discover commercial reserves on the property underlying our mineral claim interests, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to successfully advance the property into commercial production.

The property underlying our mineral claim interests does not contain any known bodies of ore. Our business plan calls for significant expenditures in connection with the exploration of the property. We will require additional financing in order to maintain our administrative costs for the next twelve months and to complete phase one of the exploration program on the property, as recommended by our consulting geologist. In addition, we will require further financing in order to complete phase two of the exploration program on the property and to conduct the economic evaluation that would be necessary for us to assess whether sufficient mineral reserves exist to justify commercial exploitation of the property underlying our mineral claim interests. We currently are in the exploration stage and have no revenue from operations. We currently do not have any arrangements in place for additional financing, and we may not be able to obtain financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will not be able to continue our exploration activities and our assessment of the commercial viability of the property. Further, if we are able to establish that development of the property is commercially viable, our inability to raise additional financing at that stage would result in our inability to place the property into production and recover our investment.

Our exploration activities may not be commercially successful, which could lead us to abandon our plans to develop the property underlying our mineral claim interests and our investments in exploration.

Our long-term success depends on our ability to establish commercially recoverable quantities of ore on the property underlying our mineral claim interests. Mineral exploration is highly speculative in nature, involves many risks and is frequently non-productive. Substantial expenditures are required to establish proven and probable reserves through drilling and analysis, to develop metallurgical processes to extract metal, and to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining. Whether a mineral deposit will be commercially viable depends on a number of factors, which include, without limitation, the particular attributes of the deposit, such as size, grade and proximity to infrastructure; metal prices, which fluctuate widely; and government regulations, including, without limitation, regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. We may invest significant capital and resources in exploration activities and abandon such investments if they are unable to identify commercially exploitable mineral reserves. The decision to abandon a project may reduce the trading price of our common stock and impair our ability to raise future financing. We cannot provide any assurance to investors that we will discover or acquire any mineralized material in sufficient quantities on the property underling our mineral claim interests to justify commercial operations. Further, we will not be able to recover the funds that we spend on exploration if we are not able to establish commercially recoverable quantities of ore on the property.

Because access to the property underlying our mineral claim interests is often restricted by inclement weather, we will be delayed in our exploration and any future mining efforts.

Due to snow and snowfall in the area, surface exploration of the property subject to our mineral claim interests is restricted to the summer months and early fall. As a result, any attempts to visit, test or explore the property are largely limited to the few months out of the year when weather permits such activities. These limitations can result in significant delays in exploration efforts, as well as mining and production in the event that commercial amounts of minerals are found. This may cause our business venture to fail and result in the loss of your entire investment in our common stock.

As we undertake exploration of the property underlying our mineral claim interests, we will be subject to compliance with government regulation that may increase the anticipated time and cost of our exploration program.

There are several governmental regulations that materially restrict the exploration for minerals. We will be subject to the mining laws and regulations of the Yukon Territory as we carry out our exploration program. We may be required to obtain work permits, post bonds and perform remediation work for any physical disturbance to the land in order to comply with these regulations. While our planned exploration program budgets for regulatory compliance, there is a risk that new regulations could increase our time and costs of doing business and prevent us from carrying out our exploration program.

If there is a defect with respect to title of our mineral claim interests, our business may fail.

We own an interest in certain quartz claims in the Yukon Territory, Canada. Although we believe that we have taken all appropriate steps to determine that we have title to interest in these claims, there is no guarantee that there are no defects with respect to title of the mineral claims. The property may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers or native land claims, and title may be affected by undetected defects. If we do not have clear title to our mineral claim interests, our business may fail and you may lose your entire investment in our common stock.

If we are unable to maintain our mineral claim interests, then our business will fail.

We own a 100% interest in certain mineral claims in the Yukon Territory, Canada, which claims are governed by the Quartz Mining Act (Yukon Territory, Canada). To keep our interests in these claims in good standing in the Yukon Territory, there must be CDN$100 (approximately $82 based on the noon buying rate as certified by the Bank of Canada on April 13, 2009 of CDN$1.2212 : US$1.00) of exploration expenditures performed per claim each year. In the event that work is not performed on a property, the CDN$100 per claim can be paid in lieu of performing such work. In the case of our claim interests, CDN$100 of exploration expenditures must be spent before October 18, 2009 in order to maintain the claims in good standing for an additional year. If we fail to meet these requirements on a timely basis, the claims subject to our interests will lapse. Accordingly, you could lose all or part of your investment in our common stock.

We are subject to risks inherent in the mining industry, and at present we do not have any insurance against such risks. Any losses we may incur that are associated with such risks may cause us to incur substantial costs which will have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations.

Any mining operations that we may undertake in the future will be subject to risks normally encountered in the mining business. Mining for valuable minerals is generally subject to a number of risks and hazards, including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, labour disputes, unusual or unexpected geological conditions, pressures, cave-ins, changes in the regulatory environment and natural phenomena such as inclement weather conditions, floods, blizzards and earthquakes. At the present we do not intend to obtain insurance coverage and even if we were to do so, no assurance can be given that such insurance will continue to be available or that it will be available at economically feasible premiums. Insurance coverage may not continue to be available or may not be adequate to cover any resulting liability. Moreover, insurance against risks such as environmental pollution or other hazards as a result of exploration and production is not generally available to companies in the mining industry on acceptable terms. We might also become subject to liability for pollution or other hazards which may not be insured against or which we may elect not to insure against because of premium costs or other reasons. Losses from these events may cause us to incur significant costs that could have a material adverse effect upon our financial performance and results of operations. Such costs could potentially exceed our asset value and cause us to liquidate all of our assets, resulting in the loss of your entire investment in our common stock.

If we do not find a joint venture participant for the continued exploration of the property underlying our mineral claim interests, we may not be able to advance the exploration work.

If the initial results of our mineral exploration program are successful, we may try to enter into a joint venture agreement with a third party for the further exploration and possible production of the property underlying our mineral claim interests. We would face competition from other junior mineral resource exploration companies if we attempt to enter into a joint venture agreement with a third party. A prospective joint venture participant could have a limited ability to enter into joint venture agreements with junior exploration companies, and will seek the junior exploration companies who have the properties that it deems to be the most attractive in terms of potential return and investment cost. In addition, if we entered into a joint venture agreement, we would likely assign a percentage of our mineral claims interests to the joint venture participant. If we are unable to enter into a joint venture agreement with a third party, we may fail and you will lose your entire investment in our common stock.

We rely on key members of management, the loss of whose services would have a material adverse effect on our success and development.

Our success depends to a certain degree upon certain key members of the management. These individuals are a significant factor in our growth and success. The loss of the service of members of the management could have a material adverse effect on us. In particular, our success is highly dependant upon the efforts of our sole executive officer and our directors, the loss of whose services would have a material adverse effect on our success and development.]

Because our executive officer has other business interests, he may not be able or willing to devote a sufficient amount of time to our business operation, causing our business to fail.

Laurence Stephenson, our President, Principal Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and a director, is spending only approximately 10% of his business time on providing management services to us. While we believe that he presently possesses adequate time to attend to our interests, it is possible that the demands on Mr. Stephenson from his other obligations could increase with the result that he may no longer be able to devote sufficient time to the management of our business. This could negatively impact our business development.

Because of the fiercely competitive nature of the mining industry, we may be unable to maintain or acquire attractive mining properties on acceptable terms, which will materially affect our financial condition.

The mining industry is competitive in all of its phases. We face strong competition from other mining companies in connection with the acquisition of properties producing, or capable of producing, precious and base metals. Many of these companies have greater financial resources, operational experience and technical capabilities. As a result of this competition, we may be unable to maintain or acquire attractive mining properties on terms we consider acceptable or at all. Consequently, our revenues, operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Risks related to our common stock
Because our stock is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board and not a larger or more recognized exchange, investors may find it difficult to sell their shares or obtain accurate quotations for share prices.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. Investors may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock than would otherwise be the case if our common stock was listed on a more recognized stock exchange or quotation service. In addition, trading in our common stock is currently subject to certain rules under the Exchange Act, which require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a "penny stock." Penny stocks are generally non-FINRA equity securities with a market price less than $5.00 per share. The penny stock rules require broker-dealers selling penny stocks to make certain disclosures about such stocks to purchasers thereof, and impose sales practice restrictions on broker-dealers in certain penny stock transactions. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by these rules may discourage them from effecting transactions in our common stock, which could limit the liquidity of the common stock and the ability of our stockholders to sell their stock in the secondary market.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock into the public market by selling stockholders may result in significant downward pressure on the price of our common stock and could affect the ability of our stockholders to realize any current trading price of our common stock.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could cause a reduction in the market price of our common stock. We filed a registration statement on Form SB-2 with the SEC, which was declared effective on October 17, 2007. The selling stockholders thereunder may be reselling up to approximately 41% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock (and, if the share purchase warrants are exercised with respect to the 30,000,000 shares underlying such share purchase warrants registered, then the selling stockholders may be reselling up to approximately 58% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock). As a result of such registration statement, a substantial number of our shares of common stock which have been issued are available for immediate resale, which could have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock. As a result of any such decreases in price of our common stock, purchasers who acquire shares from the selling stockholders may lose some or all of their investment.

Any significant downward pressure on the price of our common stock as the selling stockholders sell the shares of our common stock could encourage short sales by the selling stockholders or others. Any such short sales could place further downward pressure on the price of our common stock.

Our stock is a penny stock. Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC's penny stock regulations and FINRA's sales practice requirements, which may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

Our common stock is subject to the "Penny Stock" Rules of the SEC, which will make transactions in our common stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our common stock.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board of FINRA, which is generally considered to be a less efficient market than markets such as NASDAQ or the national exchanges, and which may cause difficulty in conducting trades and difficulty in obtaining future financing. Further, our securities are subject to the "penny stock rules" adopted pursuant to Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules apply generally to companies whose common stock trades at less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain limited exemptions. Such rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade "penny stock" to persons other than "established customers" complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided not to trade "penny stock" because of the requirements of the "penny stock rules" and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. In the event that we remain subject to the "penny stock rules" for any significant period, there may develop an adverse impact on the market, if any, for our securities. Because our securities are subject to the "penny stock rules", investors will find it more difficult to dispose of our securities. Further, it is more difficult: (i) to obtain accurate quotations, (ii) to obtain coverage for significant news events because major wire services, such as the Dow Jones News Service, generally do not publish press releases about such companies, and (iii) to obtain needed capital.

In addition to the "penny stock" rules promulgated by the SEC, FINRA has adopted rules that require a broker-dealer to have reasonable grounds for believing that an investment is suitable for a customer when recommending the investment to that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our financial condition, changes in financial condition, plan of operations and results of operations should be read in conjunction with (i) our audited financial statements as at December 31, 2008, December 31, 2007 and for the period from inception (May 16, 2006) to December 31, 2008 and (ii) the section entitled "Business", included in this annual report. The discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this annual report.

Plan of Operations

Our plan of operations for the next twelve months is to complete the following objectives within the time periods specified, subject to our obtaining the funding necessary for the continued exploration of the property underlying our mineral claims:

We intend to conduct phase one of our recommended exploration program on the property underlying our mineral claim interests. Phase one will consist of prospecting, geological mapping, geophysical and geochemical surveys, and is estimated to cost approximately CDN$13,750 (approximately $11,259 based on the noon buying rate as certified by the Bank of Canada on April 13, 2009 of CDN$1.2212 : US$1.00). We expect to commence phase one of our exploration program in the summer of 2009, depending on the availability of personnel and equipment and the availability of financing.

We anticipate spending approximately $7,000 in ongoing general and administrative expenses per month for the next twelve months, for a total anticipated expenditure of $84,000 over the next twelve months. The general and administrative expenses for the year will consist primarily of professional fees for the audit and legal work relating to our regulatory filings throughout the year, as well as transfer agent fees and general office expenses.

Thus, we estimate that our expenditures over the next twelve months will be approximately $95,000 ($11,259 to complete phase one of our recommended exploration program and $84,000 to cover ongoing general and administrative expenses). As at December 31, 2008, we had cash of $nil and a working capital deficit of $115,517. Our ability to complete phases one and two of our recommended exploration program of the property underlying our mineral claim interests, and to pay our general and administrative expenses for the next twelve months, will be subject to us obtaining financing.

Financial Condition

During the twelve-month period following the date of this annual report, we anticipate that we will not generate any revenue. Accordingly, we will be required to obtain additional financing in order to pursue our plan of operations during and beyond the next twelve months. We believe that debt financing will not be an alternative for funding as we do not have tangible assets to secure any debt financing. We anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. However, we do not have any financing arranged and we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund any additional and more advanced exploration programs beyond our initial aforementioned exploration program. In the absence of such financing, we will not be able to continue exploration of the property underlying our mineral claim interest and our business plan will fail. Even if we are successful in obtaining equity financing to fund any continuation of our exploration program, there is no assurance that we will obtain the funding necessary to pursue any advanced exploration of the property underlying our mineral claim interest. If we do not continue to obtain additional financing, we will be forced to abandon our mineral claim interest.

We may consider entering into a joint venture arrangement to provide the required funding to develop the property underlying our mineral claim interest. We have not undertaken any efforts to locate a joint venture participant. Even if we determined to pursue a joint venture participant, there is no assurance that any third party would enter into a joint venture agreement with us in order to fund exploration of the property underlying our mineral claim interest. If we entered into a joint venture arrangement, we would likely have to assign a percentage of our interest to the joint venture participant.

Results of Operations

The following sets table sets out our losses for the periods indicated:

	Year Ended December 31, 2008	Year Ended December 31, 2007	For the Period from Inception (May 16, 2006) to December 31, 2008

Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2008 and 2007

Revenues

We had no operating revenues since our inception (May 16, 2006) to December 31, 2008. We anticipate that we will not generate any revenues for so long as we are an exploration stage company.

Expenses

Our expenses in the year ended December 31, 2008 decreased to $69,756 from $114,874 in the year ended December 31, 2007, primarily as a result of a foreign exchange gain in the year ended December 31, 2008 (as opposed to a loss in the prior year) and a decrease in our office and administration and travel expenses during the year ended December 31, 2008 as compared to the prior year.

Net Loss

Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $69,756, compared to $114,874 for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had cash of $nil and a working capital deficit of $115,517 at December 31, 2008.

We estimate that our total expenditures over the next twelve months will be approximately $95,000, as outlined above under the heading "Plan of Operations".

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $28,002 during the year ended December 31, 2008, as compared to $73,615 during the year ended December 31, 2007. Net cash used in operating activities from our inception on May 16, 2006 to December 31, 2008 was $110,896.

Cash from Financing Activities

During the year ended December 31, 2008, we received $19,814 net cash from financing activities from loan payable. During the year ended December 31, 2007, we received $2,500 net cash from financing activities from the sale of our common stock. We have funded our business to date primarily from sales of our common stock. From our inception on May 16, 2006 to December 31, 2008, we raised a total of approximately $91,000 from private offerings of our securities.

There are no assurances that we will be able to achieve further sales of our common stock or any other form of additional financing. If we are unable to achieve the financing necessary to continue our plan of operations, then we will not be able to continue our exploration of the property underlying our mineral claim interest and our venture will fail.

Going Concern

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive exploration activities. For these reasons our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 that they have substantial doubt we will be able to continue as a going concern.

Future Financings

We anticipate continuing to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our planned exploration activities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.

Exploration Stage Company

The Company complies with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 7 and its characterization of the Company as a development stage enterprise.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

Foreign Currency Translation

The financial statements are presented in United States dollars unless otherwise noted. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation", foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated into their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the year. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.

Mineral Property Costs

The Company is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred in accordance with EITF 04-2, "Whether Mineral Rights are Tangible or Intangible Assets". At the end of each fiscal quarter end, the Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment under SFAS 144, "Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets". If proven and probable reserves are established for a property and it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed, costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve.

Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred.

As of the date of this annual report, the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties and have incurred only acquisition and exploration costs which have been expensed.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant areas requiring management's estimates and assumptions are determining the fair value of share transaction.. Other areas requiring estimates include deferred tax balances, valuation allowances, allocations of expenditures to resource property interests and asset impairment tests.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of bank overdraft, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, loan payable and amounts due to related party approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

Environmental Costs

Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations, and which do not contribute to current or future revenue generation, are expensed. Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable, and the cost can be reasonably estimated. Generally, the timing of these accruals coincides with the earlier of completion of a feasibility study or the Company's commitments to plan of action based on the then known facts.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

At December 31, 2008, a full deferred tax asset valuation allowance has been provided and no deferred tax asset benefit has been recorded.

The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48"), on January 1, 2007. Previously, the Company had accounted for tax contingencies in accordance with SFAS No.5, "Accounting for Contingencies". As required by Interpretation 48, which clarifies SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", the Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would make more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting this standard, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. At the adoption date, the Company applied Interpretation 48 to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remained open. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the financial statements during the year ended December 31, 2008.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Dilutive earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of the Company. Because the effect of conversion of the Company's dilutive securities is anti-dilutive, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods presented.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R "Share Based Payments", using the fair value method. The Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options. Accordingly no stock-based compensation has been recorded to date. The Company has not issued any stock options since its inception. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 163, "Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts - An interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60". SFAS 163 requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. It also clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities, and requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, except for some disclosures about the insurance enterprise's risk-management activities. SFAS 163 requires that disclosures about the risk-management activities of the insurance enterprise be effective for the first period beginning after issuance. Except for those disclosures, earlier application is not permitted. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles". SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. It is effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, "The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles". The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133". SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-3, "Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset is Not Active" ("SFAS 157-3"). The FSP provides guidance clarifying how SFAS No. 157 should be applied when valuing securities in markets that are not active. The guidance states that significant judgment is required in valuing financial assets and clarifies how management's internal assumptions should be considered when relevant observable data does not exist, how observable market information in a market that is not active should be considered when measuring fair value, and how the use of market quotes should be considered when assessing the relevance of observable and unobservable data available to measure fair value. The FSP is effective upon issuance and includes financial statements for the period ending on or before September 30, 2008. The Company has adopted SFAS 157-3 prospectively beginning July 1, 2008, and the adoption of FSP FAS 157-3 did not have a material impact on the Company.

STATEMENT OF STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Impala Mineral Exploration Corp. (formerly Harborside Ventures, Inc.)

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Impala Mineral Exploration Corp. (formerly Harborside Ventures, Inc.) (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the period from May 16, 2006 (inception) through December 31, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Impala Mineral Exploration Corp. (formerly Harborside Ventures, Inc.) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the period from May 16, 2006 (inception) through December 31, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has not generated revenues since inception, has incurred losses in developing its business, and further losses are anticipated. The Company requires additional funds to meet its obligations and the costs of its operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in this regard are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

IMPALA MINERAL EXPLORATION CORP.
(Formerly Harborside Ventures, Inc.)

(An Exploration Stage Company)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008

Note 1 Nature and Continuance of Operations

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 16, 2006 under the name Harborside Ventures, Inc. and is in the exploration stage. Effective September 16, 2008, the Company changed its name to Impala Mineral Exploration Corp. through a merger with its wholly-owned subsidiary incorporated solely for the purpose of the name change. After the merger, the Company was the surviving corporation. The Company has acquired a mineral property located in the Yukon Territory, Canada and has not yet determined whether this property contains reserves that are economically recoverable. The recoverability of costs incurred for acquisition and exploration of the property will be dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, confirmation of the Company's interest in the underlying property, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to satisfy the expenditure requirements under the property agreement and to complete the development of the property and upon future profitable production or proceeds for the sale thereof.

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has not generated revenues to date, has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $206,817 and has a working capital deficiency of $115,517 as at December 31, 2008. Further losses are anticipated in the development of its business raising doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due and ultimately upon generating profitable operations in the future. . Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with loans from directors and or private placement of common stock (see Note 8).

Note 3 Mineral Property

Quartz Claims

By "Quartz Claims Acquisition Agreement" dated May 25, 2006, the Company acquired a 100% undivided right, title and interest in and to the mineral property, known as "Quartz Claims", located in the Whitehorse Mining District of the Yukon Territory, Canada by the issuance of 60,000 common shares of the Company's capital stock at an issuance price of $0.005 per share for a total of $300 and repayment of staking and application costs of $6,586 (CAD$6,000) from an unrelated party. The Company issued the 60,000 common shares during the year ended December 31, 2007.

All costs on the Quartz claims have been expensed to date as the Company does not have sufficient funding to carry out its planned exploration program.

Note 4 Loan Payable

In February 2008, the Company signed a promissory note with a non-related party for $16,420 (Cdn$20,000), which bears an interest rate of 30% per annum, is unsecured and is repayable in six months. The due date has been extended to May 1, 2009 with all other terms remaining the same. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company accrued interest of $4,657 (Cdn$5,000) which is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

During the year, the Company signed a promissory note with a non-related party for $3,395, which is non interest bearing, unsecured and is repayable at February 1, 2010.

Note 5 Capital Stock

During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company issued the following:

On September 16, 2008, the Company effected a 10:1 forward stock split of the authorized, issued and outstanding common stock. As a result, the authorized share capital increased from 500,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share to 5,000,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share. The issued and outstanding share capital increased from 7,406,001 shares of common stock to 74,060,010 shares of common stock. All share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company issued the following:

(a) 30,000,000 shares of common stock for total cash proceeds of $3,000. $2,000 out of the total proceeds were received in the period ended December 31, 2006 and the balance of $1,000 was received in the fiscal 2007;

(b) 44,000,000 units at a price of $0.002 per unit for total proceeds of $88,000. $86,500 out of the total proceeds were received in the period ended December 31, 2006 and the balance of $1,500 was received in the fiscal 2007. Each unit consisted of one common share and one non-transferable warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock for a two year period commencing June 8, 2007, at an exercise price of $0.005 per share until June 8, 2008 and at an exercise price of $0.01 per share thereafter; and

(c) 60,000 shares of common stock at an issuance price of $0.005 per share for a total of $300 for a mineral property (Refer to note 3);

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008

Note 6 Due to Related Party

As at December 31, 2008 $5,278 (2007 - $847) was due to the former President and Director of the Company. These amounts are unsecured, do not bear interest and have no specific terms of repayment.

All related party transactions are in the normal course of business and are measured at the exchange amount, which is the amount, which is the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties.

Note 7 Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Income tax expense differs from the amount that would result from applying the U.S. federal and state income tax rates to earnings before income taxes. The Company has a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $206,800 available to offset taxable income in future years which expires in fiscal 2026. Pursuant to SFAS 109, the potential benefit of the net operating loss carryforward has not been recognized in the financial statements since the Company cannot be assured that it is more likely than not that such benefit will be utilized in future years.

The Company is subject to United States federal and state income taxes at an approximate rate of 35%. The reconciliation of the provision for income taxes at the United States federal statutory rate compared to the Company's income tax expense as reported is as follows:

	December 31, 2008 $	December 31, 2007 $

Income tax recovery at statutory rate	24,410	40,210

Valuation allowance change	(24,410)	(40,210)

Provision for income taxes	-	-

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences in the recognition of income and expenses for financial reporting and tax purposes. The significant components of deferred income tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008

Note 7 Income Taxes (continued)

	December 31, 2008 $	December 31, 2007 $

Deferred income tax assets:

Net operating loss carryforward	72,380	47,990

Valuation allowance	(72,380)	(47,990)

Net deferred income tax asset	-	-

The Company has recognized a valuation allowance for the deferred income tax asset since the Company cannot be assured that it is more likely than not that such benefit will be utilized in future years. The valuation allowance is reviewed annually. When circumstances change and which cause a change in management's judgment about the realizability of deferred income tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation allowance is generally reflected in current income.

The Company has not filed any income tax returns since inception. The Company has uncertain tax positions for which the possible liability for penalties and interest is not currently reliably estimable by management. Management has considered the likelihood and significance of possible penalties associated with its current and intended filing positions and has determined, based on their assessment, that such penalties, if any, would not be expected to be material.

As the Company has incurred losses since inception there would be no known or anticipated exposure to penalties for income tax liability.

As a result of the implementation o f FIN 48, the Company performed a comprehensive review of its portfolio of uncertain tax positions in accordance with recognition standards established by FIN 48. In this regard, an uncertain tax position represents the Company's expected treatment of a tax position taken in a filed tax return or planned to be taken in a future tax return that has not been reflected in measuring income tax expense for financial reporting purposes. As a result of this review, the Company did not have any uncertain tax positions that would require additional liabilities or which such classification would be required. The amount of unrecognized tax positions did not change and management does not believe there will be any material changes in its unrecognized tax positions over the next twelve months.

Note 8 Subsequent Events

On February 20, 2009, the Company issued 150,000 units at $0.10 per unit, for the total proceeds of $15,000. Each unit is comprised of one common share and one non-transferable common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the subscriber to purchase an additional common share at $0.20 per share until February 20, 2011.

In March 2009, the Company received an additional $15,000 share subscription.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

We have had no disagreements with our principal independent accountants.

ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Laurence Stephenson, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report, based on his evaluation of these controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act.

The management of the Company assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on this assessment, management determined that, during the year ended December 31, 2008, our internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules, as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies in the design or operation of the Company's internal control that adversely affected the Company's internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

Management identified the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting:

The Company does not have a separate Audit Committee. The entire Board of Directors acts as the Company's Audit Committee, and as of December 31, 2008 there was a lack of independent directors and the Board of Directors had not identified an "expert", one who is knowledgeable about reporting and financial statement requirements.

The Company has limited segregation of duties which is not consistent with good internal control procedures.

The Company does not have a written internal control procedurals manual which outlines the duties and reporting requirements of the Directors and any staff to be hired in the future. This lack of a written internal control procedurals manual does not meet the requirements of the SEC or good internal controls.

The Company has not instituted effective controls over financial disclosure and the reporting processes.

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2), (3) and (4) above did not have an affect on the Company's financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of independent directors on the Company's board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, can impact the Company's financial statements for the future years.

The Company and its management will endeavor to correct the above noted weaknesses in internal control once it has adequate funds to do so. We intend to establish an audit committee, appoint sufficient independent members thereto and identify an "expert" for the committee to advise other members as to correct accounting and reporting procedures. In addition, we intend to establish a written policy manual outlining the duties of each of the officers and staff of the Company to facilitate better internal control procedures.

Management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the Company's internal controls and procedures and its internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only the management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last quarter of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
