Mexus Gold US (MXSG)

[gitreal]

Same rules as GORO did.

Huh?? The following is from GORO's 2014 10-K. They clearly were not calling themselves a production phase company, the way that Mexus is implying they are, or soon will be, in today's PR. No reserves, therefore not a production phase company. I suppose you could make the case they didn't say they actually were a production company, just transitioning to one. That would be splitting hairs.

We are considered an “exploration stage” company under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Industry Guide 7, Description of Property by Issuers Engaged or to be Engaged in Significant Mining Operations (“Guide 7”), because we do not have reserves as defined under Guide 7. Reserves are defined in Guide 7 as that part of a mineral deposit which can be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination. The establishment of reserves under Guide 7 requires, among other things, certain spacing of exploratory drill holes to establish the required continuity of mineralization and the completion of a detailed cost or feasibility study. Since we have no reserves as defined in Guide 7, we have not exited the exploration stage and continue to report our financial information as an exploration stage entity as required under relevant accounting principles. Although for purposes of ASC 915 Development Stage Entities we have exited the development stage and no longer report inception to date results of operations, cash flows and other financial information, we will remain an exploration stage company under Guide 7 until such time as we demonstrate reserves in accordance with the criteria in Guide 7.
