Inc.) of all outstanding limited partnership interests of Peru Exploration and all outstanding shares of Peru Exploration&#146;s general partner. The shares received by the Company represent approximately 17.8% of the outstanding common shares of
Bear Creek. In addition, the Company has non-transferable preemptive rights, until April 25, 2005, to participate in any offering of common stock undertaken by Bear Creek on a pro rata basis in order to allow it to maintain its percentage interest
in the common shares of Bear Creek. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">Pursuant to
the terms of the exchange, the Company is restricted from publicly selling all but 2% of its shares of Bear Creek for six months following the exchange, at which time an additional 15% of the shares held by the Company will be released from such
restrictions. For a period of 12 months thereafter, the restrictions lapse with respect to additional increments of the shares every three months, with 91% of the shares released from such restrictions 18 months following the exchange. The
restrictions lapse with respect to the remaining 9% of the shares every six months thereafter in 3% increments, with 100% of the shares released from such restrictions 36 months following the exchange. The Company will record, in the second quarter
of 2003, an after tax gain based upon the fair value of the common shares received, which is currently estimated to be approximately $2,000. These common shares will be recorded as investment securities and classified as available for sale. The
Company&#146;s ability to realize the recorded value of its shares of Bear Creek is subject to various risks, including Bear Creek&#146;s performance in the future, volatility in the market price for the shares and the existence of sufficient market
liquidity to absorb the Company&#146;s position, all of which are beyond the Company&#146;s control. In addition, the restrictions on the Company&#146;s ability to sell its Bear Creek stock could negatively impact the value it will ultimately

STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">Based on the feasibility study, we forecast that the Las Cruces project will be a low cost producer, with an operating cash cost per pound
of copper estimated to average $0.33. Based on an assumed copper price of $0.80 per pound, we believe the Las Cruces project will have the potential for strong margins and after-tax internal rate of return, assuming that we fund 70% of the
project&#146;s capital expenditures through debt financing. As of May 9, 2003, the spot price for copper was approximately $0.73 per pound. However, based on historical fluctuations in copper prices, which have ranged from a high of $1.60 in 1989 to
a low of $0.59 in 2001, we believe $0.80 per pound is a reasonable price for purposes of estimating the internal rate of return of the project. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P><P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">In addition to assumptions regarding copper prices, our analysis of the economic viability of the Las Cruces project is based on estimates
regarding the total costs to bring the Las Cruces project into commercial production. These estimates are based largely on the feasibility study, which was completed in 2001. Since that time, we have obtained additional information regarding the
expected development costs through the permitting process as well as additional internal analysis. We have identified factors that would increase both expected development costs and operating costs. However, we have also identified potential ways to
reduce certain costs contemplated by the feasibility study. It is difficult to predict whether the net effect of the cost increases and potential cost savings will have a significant effect on the expected total costs of development of the Las
Cruces project. One key factor affecting development costs, for example, is the exchange rate of the euro relative to the U.S. dollar. The exchange rate fluctuates and we cannot predict what the exchange rates will be over the course of development
of the project. We do know, however, that the exchange rate for one U.S. dollar has decreased from approximately 1.138 euros, at the time the feasibility study was completed, to its current level of approximately 0.87 euro. If this trend continues,
our actual development costs will likely be higher than our estimates based on the feasibility study. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

permitting process and indicates the government&#146;s environmental approval of the project. The positive declaration is also a prerequisite for the regional government to issue a mining concession and allows the regional water authority to
finalize the processing of the water permit applications. The mining concession will give us the mining rights and access to all the necessary utilities required to develop the project. In connection with its review of the mining concession
application, the Regional Government of Andalusia requested us to undertake a program of additional geotechnical studies to supplement the information contained in the feasibility study. We have completed these studies. This work has delayed the
granting of the mining concession. Nevertheless, we expect the mining concession and initial water permits to be granted by mid 2003. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

the project into a low cost, environmentally responsible copper mine. We have given environmental considerations high priority in project design and development at the Las Cruces project. Waste dumps will be continually contoured and reclaimed to
enhance the appearance of the Las Cruces project. Protection of the area&#146;s water resources affected by the mine has been carefully studied and planned. Water Management Consultants, a hydrological engineering and design company, developed the
water management plan, including the extraction system for dewatering the overlying sand aquifer and re-injection into the aquifer. Water needed to process the ore will be pumped 15 kilometers from a sewage processing plant and treated before use.

volatile and are affected by numerous factors beyond our control, including expectations regarding inflation, global and regional demand, speculative activities, political and economic conditions, and production costs in major copper producing
regions. The aggregate effect of these factors on copper prices is impossible for us to predict. A decrease in copper prices could adversely affect our ability to finance the development of the Las Cruces project, which would have a material adverse
affect on our results of operations and financial condition. A $0.01 decrease in the cash price per pound of copper could reduce annual cash flows from the Las Cruces project by up to $1 million. </FONT></P><P

by up to $24 million. We have not entered into any foreign currency contracts or other derivatives to establish a foreign currency protection program. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P><P

a variable interest rate equal to the prime rate. At March 31, 2003, the prime rate was 4.25%. A 1% increase in the prime rate would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $0.3 million. The credit facility will expire on January 3,
2005, unless terminated earlier. Leucadia may terminate the credit facility on December 15 of any year, provided Leucadia notifies us of the termination before September 15 of that year. Leucadia has notified us that it does not intend to terminate
the credit facility prior to January 2, 2004. We have not undertaken any hedging activities with respect to the credit facility. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P><P

MK GOLD COMPANY
NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(All dollar amounts in thousands)
1. UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The interim financial information included herein is unaudited; however, the information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. The consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 ("2002 10-K"). The results of operations for the
three months ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2002 was extracted from the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the
2002 10-K and does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual consolidated financial statements.
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," which is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. SFAS No. 143 requires recognition of the fair value of liabilities associated with the retirement
of long-lived assets when a legal obligation to incur such costs arises as a result of the acquisition, construction, development and/or the normal operation of a long-lived asset. Upon recognition of the liability, a corresponding asset is recorded
and depreciated over the remaining life of the long-lived asset. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 143 as of January 1, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 did not have a significant effect on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.
In December 2002, the FASB issued
SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123." SFAS No. 148, which is effective for years ending after December 15, 2002, provides alternative methods
for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and requires prominent disclosure about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on
reported results. The adoption of SFAS No. 148 did not have a significant effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
The Company accounts for stock options granted using Accounting Principles Board APB Opinion 25. Accordingly, no compensation cost has
been recognized for its fixed stock option plans. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those plans consistent with SFAS No. 123, the
Company's net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share would have changed to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

2. PROJECT
DEVELOPMENT
The Company, through its wholly
owned subsidiary Cobre Las Cruces, S.A., owns the exploration and mineral rights to the Las Cruces project, a development stage copper project in the Pyrite Belt of Spain. The Las Cruces project was acquired by the Company on September 1, 1999 when
the Company acquired Cobre Las Cruces, formerly known as Riomin Exploraciones, S.A., from Rio Tinto plc. All development costs since the date of acquisition, including interest and costs for the independent feasibility study, have been capitalized.
The principal source of funding for project development has been the Company's credit facility with Leucadia National Corporation.
In May 2002, the Department of Environment of the Regional Government of Andalusia, Spain issued a positive Declaration of Environmental
Impact for the Las Cruces project. Receipt of the positive declaration is a key milestone in the project's permitting process and indicates the government's environmental approval of the project. The positive declaration is also a
prerequisite for the regional government to issue a mining concession and allows the regional water authority to finalize the processing of the water permit applications. The mining concession will give the Company the mining rights and access to
all the necessary utilities required to develop the project.
In connection with its review of the Company's mining concession application, the Regional Government of Andalusia requested the Company to undertake a program of additional geotechnical studies to supplement the information
contained in the feasibility study. The Company has completed these studies. This work has delayed the granting of the mining concession. Nevertheless, the Company expects the mining concession and initial water permits to be granted by mid 2003.
In May 2003, the Ministry of Economy for Spain
granted, and Cobre Las Cruces accepted, a Regional Incentives Subsidy of 36.9 million euros (approximately $40,500 at an exchange rate of .91 euro per dollar) for the development of the Las Cruces project. The European Union had previously
authorized this subsidy.
9
MK GOLD COMPANY
NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(All dollar amounts in thousands)
Receipt of the subsidy is subject to several conditions, including job creation,
minimum equity requirements for Cobre Las Cruces, and qualifying capital expenditures of at least 264 million euros (approximately $290,000) for engineering, plant, land and equipment. In order to receive the subsidies, at least 25% of the
qualifying capital expenditures must be incurred by March 27, 2004 and the full amount of qualifying capital expenditures must be incurred by March 27, 2006. Once the conditions have been met, the Company will be eligible to receive the subsidy.
The Company has submitted other subsidy
applications to the regional government of Andalusia, which have been authorized by the European Union. These subsidies, if granted, could provide additional funds for the development of the project. The regional government is in the final steps of
reviewing these applications.
Mining at the Las
Cruces project will be subject to permitting, obtaining financing, engineering and construction. Although the Company believes necessary permitting for the project will be obtained, the Company cannot guarantee that such will be the case, and no
assurance can be given that the Company will obtain financing for the project. Further, there may be other political and economic circumstances that could prevent the Company from completing development of the project.
3. MINING JOINT VENTURE
The Company owns a 25% undivided interest in the Castle
Mountain Venture ("CMV"), which prior to May 2001 operated a gold mine in San Bernardino County, California. During the second quarter of 2001, gold reserves at the mine were exhausted, mining operations ceased, and mine closure and
reclamation activities began. Mining closure and reclamation activities continued during the first quarter of 2003. The results for the CMV have been proportionally reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Gold production at the Castle Mountain Mine continued during
the first quarter of 2003 as residual gold was recovered from the leach pads during the closure and reclamation phase. Residual gold production is expected to continue into 2004 as a result of continued leaching. As part of closure activities at the
mine, mining equipment and assets were sold during the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, resulting in a gain on sale of assets of $2 and $564, respectively.
4. UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATE
In July 2000, the Company acquired 20 of 39 limited partner units of Peru Exploration Venture LLLP ("Peru Exploration"), an
Arizona limited liability limited partnership. The partnership was formed in June 2000 with Bear Creek Mining Company, an Arizona corporation, as the general partner. The Company's commitment to the partnership was $1,000 over a two-year
period, which it had fully funded as of December 31, 2001. The Company has no continuing obligation with respect to partnership activities.
The Company has accounted for this investment using the equity method of accounting and, as a result of recording its share of Peru
Exploration's losses, had reduced its investment balance to zero as of December 31, 2002. Since the Company had no obligation or commitment to provide any additional
10
MK GOLD COMPANY
NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(All dollar amounts in thousands)
funds to Peru Exploration, application of the equity method of accounting was suspended once its investment was reduced to zero. The
Company's share of loss from the partnership for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 was zero and $128, respectively.
On April 21, 2003, the Company exchanged all of its limited partnership units of Peru Exploration for a total of 4,821,905 common shares
of Bear Creek Mining Corporation ("Bear Creek"), a publicly traded Canadian mineral exploration company (TSX Venture Exchange: BCM). The exchange was made in connection with the acquisition by Bear Creek (formerly EVEolution Ventures,
Inc.) of all outstanding limited partnership interests of Peru Exploration and all outstanding shares of Peru Exploration's general partner. The shares received by the Company represent approximately 17.8% of the outstanding common shares of
Bear Creek. In addition, the Company has non-transferable preemptive rights, until April 25, 2005, to participate in any offering of common stock undertaken by Bear Creek on a pro rata basis in order to allow it to maintain its percentage interest
in the common shares of Bear Creek.
Pursuant to
the terms of the exchange, the Company is restricted from publicly selling all but 2% of its shares of Bear Creek for six months following the exchange, at which time an additional 15% of the shares held by the Company will be released from such
restrictions. For a period of 12 months thereafter, the restrictions lapse with respect to additional increments of the shares every three months, with 91% of the shares released from such restrictions 18 months following the exchange. The
restrictions lapse with respect to the remaining 9% of the shares every six months thereafter in 3% increments, with 100% of the shares released from such restrictions 36 months following the exchange. The Company will record, in the second quarter
of 2003, an after tax gain based upon the fair value of the common shares received, which is currently estimated to be approximately $2,000. These common shares will be recorded as investment securities and classified as available for sale. The
Company's ability to realize the recorded value of its shares of Bear Creek is subject to various risks, including Bear Creek's performance in the future, volatility in the market price for the shares and the existence of sufficient market
liquidity to absorb the Company's position, all of which are beyond the Company's control. In addition, the restrictions on the Company's ability to sell its Bear Creek stock could negatively impact the value it will ultimately
receive for the shares. As a result, the amount the Company will realize from this investment is uncertain.
5. INDUSTRY SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company operates primarily in two industry segments, gold sales and copper project. All of the Company's revenue is derived from gold sales. The Company is not economically dependent on a
limited number of customers for the sale of its gold because gold commodity markets are well-developed worldwide. During 1999, the Company acquired the Las Cruces project, which is a copper project in the development stage. All copper project assets
relate to the Las Cruces project and are located in Spain.
6.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
At March 31,
2003, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $33,400 under its $40,000 credit facility with Leucadia National Corporation (the "Credit Facility"). For the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, approximately $349 and $350,
respectively, in interest and commitment fees were
11
MK GOLD COMPANY
NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(All dollar amounts in thousands)
paid to Leucadia under the Credit Facility. Approximately $342 and $344, respectively, in interest relating to the Las Cruces project was
capitalized during these periods. Loans outstanding under the Credit Facility bear interest equal to the prime rate and interest and commitment fees are payable quarterly. The prime rate at March 31, 2003 was 4.25%. In May 2003, the Credit Facility
was amended, effective January 2, 2003, to extend the expiration to January 3, 2005.
7. LEGAL CONTINGENCIES
From time to time, the Company becomes subject to litigation which arises in the course of its business. Based on discussions with counsel, management is of the opinion that the litigation in which the Company is currently involved
will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position of the Company, its consolidated results of operations or liquidity.
8. INCOME TAXES
Due to past net operating losses, the Company has recorded a gross deferred tax asset of approximately $20,399 as of March 31, 2003. The
Company has also recorded a valuation allowance of $18,293 against this asset, resulting in a net deferred tax asset of $2,106. Deferred tax liabilities more than offset the deferred tax asset, resulting in a net deferred tax liability of $3,967.
The provision for income taxes in the first quarter of 2003 represents state income taxes payable to the State of California. The Company's net operating losses are not available to reduce California state income taxes. California has
disallowed net operating loss offsets for 2002 and 2003. In 2002, the Company utilized a portion of its net operating losses to offset the federal income taxes that otherwise would have been due.
9. BANKRUPTCY RECOVERY
As part of a court approved bankruptcy plan of Washington

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This section discusses our consolidated financial condition,
liquidity and capital resources and results of operations. You should read this analysis in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2002. This section also contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements regarding our plans, objectives, goals, strategies and financial performance. Our actual
results could differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of factors set forth under "Cautionary Statement for Forward-Looking Information" below.
Las Cruces Project
On September 1, 1999, we acquired the entire share capital
and subordinated debt of Riomin Exploraciones, S.A., from Rio Tinto plc. After this acquisition, we changed the name of Riomin Exploraciones, S.A., to Cobre Las Cruces, S.A. Cobre Las Cruces has permits to investigate four contiguous areas in
southwestern Spain, one of which contains the Las Cruces copper deposit. Las Cruces is 20 kilometers northwest of Seville, in an area with a well-developed infrastructure that will support the project's needs for water, power and
transportation.
Project Feasibility.
Bechtel International, Inc., an international engineering and construction company, completed an independent feasibility study for the Las Cruces project in 2001. The feasibility study incorporated results of an environmental impact study
completed by FRASA Ingenieros Consultores, a team of national and international environmental engineering experts based in Madrid.
Based on the feasibility study, we forecast that the Las Cruces project will be a low cost producer, with an operating cash cost per pound
of copper estimated to average $0.33. Based on an assumed copper price of $0.80 per pound, we believe the Las Cruces project will have the potential for strong margins and after-tax internal rate of return, assuming that we fund 70% of the
project's capital expenditures through debt financing. As of May 9, 2003, the spot price for copper was approximately $0.73 per pound. However, based on historical fluctuations in copper prices, which have ranged from a high of $1.60 in 1989 to
a low of $0.59 in 2001, we believe $0.80 per pound is a reasonable price for purposes of estimating the internal rate of return of the project.
In addition to assumptions regarding copper prices, our analysis of the economic viability of the Las Cruces project is based on estimates
regarding the total costs to bring the Las Cruces project into commercial production. These estimates are based largely on the feasibility study, which was completed in 2001. Since that time, we have obtained additional information regarding the
expected development costs through the permitting process as well as additional internal analysis. We have identified factors that would increase both expected development costs and operating costs. However, we have also identified potential ways to
reduce certain costs contemplated by the feasibility study. It is difficult to predict whether the net effect of the cost increases and potential cost savings will have a significant effect on the expected total costs of development of the Las
Cruces project. One key factor affecting development costs, for example, is the exchange rate of the euro relative to the U.S. dollar. The exchange rate fluctuates and we cannot predict what the exchange rates will be over the course of development
of the project. We do know, however, that the exchange rate for one U.S. dollar has decreased from approximately 1.138 euros, at the time the feasibility study was completed, to its current level of approximately 0.87 euro. If this trend continues,
our actual development costs will likely be higher than our estimates based on the feasibility study.
14
Our forecasts
regarding the Las Cruces project are also subject to a number of other risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from our forecasts as a result of our need for financing, potential delays in development of the Las Cruces
project, the imprecision of estimates, the uncertainty of government subsidies, uncertainties associated with closure guarantees or other requirements that may be imposed by the Spanish government, volatility of copper prices, fluctuations in the
value of the euro relative to the U.S. dollar and other factors, including those set forth under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Cautionary Statement for Forward Looking
Information" and elsewhere in this report.
Permitting, Subsidies and Development Activities.
In June and July 2001, we submitted subsidy applications to central and regional governments in Spain. Upon their review of the applications, these governments recommended
subsidies of up to 53 million euros, or approximately $58 million, subject to final consideration following European Commission review. Because the recommendation exceeded 50 million euros, it required the authorization of the European Commission.
The European Commission reviewed the recommended subsidies and considered them to be compatible with the European Commission Treaty.
In May 2003, the Ministry of Economy for Spain granted, and Cobre Las Cruces accepted, a Regional Incentives Subsidy of 36.9 million euros
(approximately $40.5 million at an exchange rate of .91 euro per dollar) for the development of the Las Cruces project. Receipt of the subsidy is subject to several conditions, including job creation, minimum equity requirements for Cobre Las
Cruces, and qualifying capital expenditures of at least 264 million euros (approximately $290 million) for engineering, plant, land and equipment. In order to receive the subsidies, at least 25% of the qualifying capital expenditures must be
incurred by March 27, 2004 and the full amount of qualifying capital expenditures must be incurred by March 27, 2006. Once these conditions have been met, we will be eligible to receive the subsidy.
Additional subsidies from the regional government of
Andalusia, if granted, could provide additional funds for the development of the project. The regional government is in the final steps of reviewing these applications that were submitted in 2001.
We submitted initial water permit applications in December
2000 to the regional water authority of the Spanish central government. In March 2001, we submitted to the government of Andalusia a mining concession application accompanied by environmental impact and project feasibility studies. We submitted
additional water permit applications in April and May 2001, including a permit application for effluent discharge. We have had frequent and responsive interaction with local, regional and central governments in Spain to resolve technical issues and
to facilitate the permitting process.
In May
2002, the Department of Environment of the Regional Government of Andalusia, Spain issued a positive Declaration of Environmental Impact for the Las Cruces project. Receipt of the positive declaration is a key milestone in the project's
permitting process and indicates the government's environmental approval of the project. The positive declaration is also a prerequisite for the regional government to issue a mining concession and allows the regional water authority to
finalize the processing of the water permit applications. The mining concession will give us the mining rights and access to all the necessary utilities required to develop the project. In connection with its review of the mining concession
application, the Regional Government of Andalusia requested us to undertake a program of additional geotechnical studies to supplement the information contained in the feasibility study. We have completed these studies. This work has delayed the
granting of the mining concession. Nevertheless, we expect the mining concession and initial water permits to be granted by mid 2003.
15
While we believe that we will receive these permits, we could encounter unexpected difficulties or further delays. Therefore, we cannot
assure you that we will receive them on a timely basis or at all.
We need to purchase 1,174 hectares, or approximately 4.5 square miles, of land and associated rights-of-way to complete the final processing of some of our additional water permit applications. If negotiations with
landowners are unsuccessful, we will initiate proceedings to cause the regional government to expropriate that land. Expropriation is commonly used in Spain, in accordance with government laws. Land acquisition activities are expected to begin once
the mining concession and initial water permits are granted. Construction and mine development can begin before all land acquisition is finalized.
Environmental Considerations.
Since our acquisition of the Las Cruces project, we have focused our efforts primarily on developing
the project into a low cost, environmentally responsible copper mine. We have given environmental considerations high priority in project design and development at the Las Cruces project. Waste dumps will be continually contoured and reclaimed to
enhance the appearance of the Las Cruces project. Protection of the area's water resources affected by the mine has been carefully studied and planned. Water Management Consultants, a hydrological engineering and design company, developed the
water management plan, including the extraction system for dewatering the overlying sand aquifer and re-injection into the aquifer. Water needed to process the ore will be pumped 15 kilometers from a sewage processing plant and treated before use.
Financing.
Funding for the development
and advancement of the Las Cruces project has principally come from our operating cash flows, cash reserves and credit facility with Leucadia National Corporation. Our current cash resources will not be sufficient to cover all projected expenses
necessary to bring the Las Cruces project into commercial production. We estimate that the total capital costs to bring the Las Cruces project into commercial production are approximately $290 million, including working capital, land purchases and
contingencies, but excluding interest and other financing costs. As described under "Project Feasibility" above, our estimated capital costs are subject to a number of uncertainties and our actual capital costs could be higher than our
estimates.
We are exploring various financing
alternatives for projected costs and expenses associated with the Las Cruces project. In addition, we will need to repay our credit facility. We will not be able to fund the project and repay the credit facility solely from debt financing. We will
need to raise a significant amount of the funds from equity investors, which we are considering doing through a subscription rights offering to our existing stockholders. Although we believe that a rights offering is a viable option, we cannot
assure you that we will actually commence a rights offering or that, if commenced, such a rights offering will be successful. If we commence a rights offering, we do not expect to do so until the mining concession and initial water permits have been
obtained for the Las Cruces project.
We are also
considering other sources of financing, including product off-take agreements, which are a type of product sales agreement, supplier financing and equipment leasing. We plan to secure debt financing for approximately 70% of the project's
capital requirements. We expect debt financing to be primarily funded through a syndicated project financing facility using a lead international bank experienced in mining project financing. While we believe that we will be able to obtain financing
for the Las Cruces project, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain financing on favorable terms or at all. If we are unable to obtain financing when needed, the development of the Las Cruces project could be delayed significantly. Any
significant delay could increase the costs of developing the Las Cruces project or prohibit us from completing development of the project.

Results of Operations
Gold Production.
Our attributable
share of gold production from the Castle Mountain Venture for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was 1,228 ounces, compared to 3,916 ounces for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This represents a 69% decrease in production totaling 2,688
ounces. The decrease in production is due to declining residual gold recovery from the leach pads. Future gold production will continue to decline as residual gold is recovered from the leach pads during the closing and reclamation phase at the
mine. Residual gold production is expected to continue into 2004.
Revenue.
Our revenues come from the sale of gold from the Castle Mountain Mine. Gold production is limited to residual production during reclamation and closure at the mine. Therefore, our revenue will continue to
decrease significantly until residual gold production ceases at the mine, which we expect to be in 2004. Once this residual gold production ceases, based on our current operations, we will have no revenues until production begins at the Las Cruces
project.
Our product sales revenue decreased
$1.1 million, or 71%, to $0.4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2003, compared to $1.5 million for the same period in 2002. The decrease in revenue is due to declining gold production, partially offset by higher realized gold
prices. Future product sales revenue will continue to decline as residual gold production decreases during the reclamation and closure phase at the Castle Mountain Mine.
During the three month period ended March 31, 2003, we sold no ounces of gold under forward sales contracts
and 1,200 ounces of gold on the spot market. During the same period in 2002, we sold no ounces of gold under forward sales contracts and 5,050 ounces of gold on the spot market. We had no ounces of gold sold under forward sales contracts as of March
31, 2003. While we have used forward sales contracts in the past, we expect that our future gold sales from residual production at the Castle Mountain Mine will be made primarily at spot prices.
For the three month period ended March 31, 2003, the average
price realized per ounce of gold was $354, compared to $291 per ounce for the same period in 2002. The average spot price for the three month period ended March 31, 2003 was $352 per ounce, compared to $290 per ounce for the same period in 2002.
Gross Profit.
We recognized a gross
profit from product sales of $0.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2003, compared to $0.3 million for the same period in 2002. Gross profit decreased primarily due to declining gold production. Future gross profit should continue
to decline as residual gold production decreases at the Castle Mountain Mine.
Exploration Costs.
Exploration costs increased 29% for the three month period ended March 31, 2003, compared to the same period in 2002. The increase in expenditures is due to more properties
being evaluated in 2003. During the first quarter of 2003, we focused our exploration efforts on our exploration programs in Nevada and Spain.
General and Administrative Expenses.
General and administrative expenses increased 20% for the three month period ended March 31,
2003, compared to the same period in 2002. The higher expenses in 2003 were due to increased legal, audit and payroll related costs.
Gain on Sale of Assets.
We recognized a gain on sale of assets of $0.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2002 from
sales of mining equipment and assets as part of closure
17
activities at the Castle Mountain Mine. Asset sales did not result in material gains in the comparable period in 2003.
Unconsolidated Affiliate.
In July 2000, we became a
limited partner in Peru Exploration Venture LLLP. The principal objective of the partnership is to acquire precious and base metal properties in Peru. We have accounted for this investment using the equity method of accounting. Our commitment to the
partnership was $1.0 million over a two-year period, which was fully funded as of December 31, 2001. Our share of loss from the partnership for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 was zero compared to $0.1 million for the same period in 2002.
On April 21, 2003, we exchanged all of our
limited partnership units of Peru Exploration Venture LLLP for a total of 4,821,905 common shares of Bear Creek Mining Corporation, a publicly traded Canadian mineral exploration company (TSX Venture Exchange: BCM). The exchange was made in
connection with the acquisition by Bear Creek (formerly EVEolution Ventures, Inc.) of all outstanding limited partnership interests of Peru Exploration and all outstanding shares of Peru Exploration's general partner. The shares received by us
represent approximately 17.8% of the outstanding common shares of Bear Creek. In addition, we have non-transferable preemptive rights, until April 25, 2005, to participate in any offering of common stock undertaken by Bear Creek on a pro rata basis
in order to allow us to maintain our percentage interest in the common shares of Bear Creek.
Pursuant to the terms of the exchange, we are restricted from publicly selling all but 2% of our shares of Bear Creek for six months following the exchange, at which time an additional 15% of the
shares held by us will be released from such restrictions. For a period of 12 months thereafter, the restrictions lapse with respect to additional increments of the shares every three months, with 91% of the shares released from such restrictions 18
months following the exchange. The restrictions lapse with respect to the remaining 9% of the shares every six months thereafter in 3% increments, with 100% of the shares released from such restrictions 36 months following the exchange. We will
record, in the second quarter of 2003, an after tax gain based upon the fair value of the common shares received, which is currently estimated to be approximately $2 million. These common shares will be recorded as investment securities and
classified as available for sale. Our ability to realize the recorded value of our shares of Bear Creek is subject to various risks, including Bear Creek's performance in the future, volatility in the market price for the shares and the
existence of sufficient market liquidity to absorb our position, all of which are beyond our control. In addition, the restrictions on our ability to sell our Bear Creek stock could negatively impact the value we will ultimately receive for the
shares. As a result, the amount we will realize from this investment is uncertain.
Bankruptcy Recovery.
As part of a court approved bankruptcy plan of Washington Group International, Inc., in the second quarter of 2002 we received an initial distribution of 13,889 shares of
common stock and warrants to purchase an additional 23,667 common shares of Washington Group, with a combined market value of $0.3 million. We recorded this amount as income in the second quarter of 2002. In the third quarter of 2002, we received an
additional distribution of 4,845 common shares and warrants to purchase an additional 8,257 common shares of Washington Group, with a combined market value of $0.1 million. We recorded this amount, net of related legal expenses, as income in the
third quarter of 2002. In the first quarter of 2003, we received an additional distribution of 2,100 common shares and warrants to purchase an additional 3,578 common shares of Washington Group, with a combined market value of $0.03 million. We
recorded this amount as income in the first quarter of 2003. The securities are classified as available for sale and any unrealized gains and losses are reflected as a component of other comprehensive income.
18
Interest
Expense.
Interest expense for the first quarter of 2003 and 2002 consisted primarily of the cost of the commitment fee on our credit facility, which is based on the amount available under the facility. For the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, we
capitalized $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively, in interest relating to the Las Cruces project.
Income Tax Provision.
The provision for income taxes in the first quarter of 2003 represents state taxes relating to California. We
have not recorded a deferred tax benefit for our first quarter 2003 loss due to the uncertainty of our ability to generate sufficient income in the future to utilize the loss. We recorded no federal income tax provision during the first quarter of
2002 as any tax that otherwise would have been due was fully offset by our net operating loss carryforwards.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of funds are our available resources of cash and cash equivalents, equity securities, cash generated from residual gold production at the Castle Mountain Mine and our credit
facility. At March 31, 2003, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1.0 million, equity securities of $0.4 million and gold bullion of $0.1 million, representing a decrease in cash and cash equivalents, equity securities and gold bullion of $0.3
million from December 31, 2002. At March 31, 2003, we had $6.6 million of available borrowings under our credit facility. We expect that our cash and cash equivalents and available borrowings under our credit facility will be sufficient to cover
operating expenses through 2003. However, our cash resources will not be sufficient to cover all projected costs and expenses necessary to commence mining at the Las Cruces project. Basic engineering and land acquisition activities are scheduled to
begin at the project once the mining concession and initial water permits have been granted. We will require financing in order to proceed with basic engineering and land acquisition activities. We estimate that the capital cost will be
approximately $290 million to bring the Las Cruces project into production, excluding interest and other financing costs.
Until May 2001, our revenues came from two sources, contract mining at the Castle Mountain Mine and the sale of gold from the mine. Since
the completion of mining activities at the Castle Mountain Mine in May 2001, our only source of revenue has been sales of residual gold recovered from the leach pads during the closure and reclamation phase at the mine. Based on our current
operations, expected overhead expenses and exploration costs, we will not have positive cash flow from operations before production of refined copper begins at the Las Cruces project.
Net cash used by operating activities was $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared to
net cash provided by operating activities of $0.5 million for the same period in 2002. The decrease in cash from operations during the first quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002 is due primarily to decreased gold sales and increased
exploration and general and administrative expenditures.
In March 1998, we entered into a $20 million credit facility with Leucadia National Corporation. Through various amendments, the most recent of which was entered into in May 2003 and effective January 2, 2003, the credit facility was
amended to increase the amount of the facility to $40 million and to extend the expiration to January 3, 2005. Leucadia may terminate the credit facility on December 15 of any year, provided Leucadia notifies us of the termination prior to September
15 of that year. Leucadia has notified us that it does not intend to terminate the credit facility prior to January 2, 2004. At March 31, 2003, we had outstanding borrowings under the credit facility of $33.4 million. Loans outstanding under the
credit facility bear interest equal to the prime rate and interest and commitment fees are payable quarterly. The prime rate at March 31, 2003 was 4.25%. Interest paid to Leucadia under the credit facility for the three months ended March 31, 2003
was approximately $0.35 million. A substantial
19
portion of these interest payments relates to financing for the Las Cruces project. Interest related to the Las Cruces project is capitalized
and is not reflected as interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations. Instead, capitalized interest is added to mining properties, plant and mine development on our consolidated balance sheets.
We are exploring various financing alternatives for projected
costs and expenses associated with the Las Cruces project. In addition, we will need to repay our credit facility. We will not be able to fund the project and repay the credit facility solely from debt financing. We will need to raise a significant
amount of the funds from equity investors, which we are considering doing through a subscription rights offering to our existing stockholders. Although we believe that a rights offering is a viable option, we cannot assure you that we will actually
commence a rights offering or that, if commenced, such a rights offering will be successful. If we commence a rights offering, we do not expect to do so until the mining concession and initial water permits have been obtained for the Las Cruces
project. If we experience additional delays in permitting or in securing additional financing, we will likely have to seek an extension of the term of the credit facility with Leucadia. If we are unable to obtain an extension from Leucadia, we may
need to seek alternative financing, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all.
We are also considering other sources of financing, including product off-take agreements, which are a type of product sales agreement,
supplier financing and equipment leasing. We plan to secure debt financing for approximately 70% of the project's capital requirements. We expect debt financing to be primarily funded through a syndicated project financing facility using a lead
international bank experienced in mining project financing. While we believe that we will be able to obtain financing for the Las Cruces project, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain financing on favorable terms or at all. If we are
unable to obtain financing when needed, the development of the Las Cruces project could be delayed significantly. Any significant delay could increase the costs of developing the Las Cruces project or prohibit us from completing development of the
project.
Our sources of funds available to fund
new mining projects are limited. We used a significant portion of our existing sources of funds to acquire the Las Cruces project for $42 million in September 1999. Accordingly, our ability to begin new mining projects depends on our ability to
obtain additional sources of funds to finance these mining projects. While we believe that we may be able to obtain financing for new mining projects through project financing or otherwise, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain
financing on favorable terms or at all.
Additions to mining properties, plant and mine development totaled $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003, compared to $0.9 million for the same period in 2002. For all periods presented, additions to mining
properties, plant and mine development consisted of: (1) mine development expenditures; (2) construction expenditures for buildings, machinery, plant and equipment; (3) expenditures for mobile mining service equipment; and (4) capitalized interest.
Development costs incurred at the Las Cruces project, including interest costs, are capitalized and are reflected as investing activities in our consolidated statements of cash flows. The principal source of funds that we used to fund project
development at the Las Cruces project was our credit facility with Leucadia.
Upon completion of production at a mine, we must make expenditures for reclamation and closure of the mine. We provide for future reclamation and mine closure liabilities on a units-of-production
basis. At March 31, 2003, we had accrued $1.9 million for these costs, including $1.8 million for the Castle Mountain Mine. In addition to the accruals, we and Viceroy Resource Corporation, the owner of the remaining 75% interest in the Castle
Mountain Venture, are depositing cash, including all proceeds from the sale of plant and equipment, in a separate fund to cover future reclamation costs at the venture properties. Our contributions to this fund totaled $2.1 million at March 31,
2003. We review the
20
adequacy of our reclamation and mine closure liabilities in light of current laws and regulations and adjust our liabilities as necessary.
As shown below, at March 31, 2003, our
contractual cash obligations totaled approximately $34 million.

This amount represents the outstanding principal balance under our $40 million credit facility with Leucadia at March 31, 2003. Leucadia may terminate the credit
facility on December 15 of any year, provided Leucadia notifies us of the termination prior to September 15 of that year. Leucadia has notified us that it does not intend to terminate the credit facility prior to January 2, 2004. The credit facility
has an expiration date of January 3, 2005.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Surety bonds and letters of credit totaling $2.4 million, of which our share is $0.72 million, have been provided as required by various governmental agencies for environmental protection, including reclamation bonds of $0.49 million
relating to the Castle Mountain Mine and $0.23 million relating to the American Girl Mine. If closure and reclamation obligations under these agreements are not met, the agencies could draw on these bonds and letters of credit to fund expenditures
for reclamation and closure requirements. We own a 53% undivided interest in the American Girl Mining Joint Venture, which operated the American Girl Mine. Mining operations ended at the American Girl Mine in 1996, and reclamation was completed in
2000.
Share Repurchase Program
Our board of directors has authorized us to repurchase of up
to 2 million shares of our outstanding common stock. As of May 9, 2003, we had repurchased 173,700 shares under our repurchase program. We have not repurchased any shares since the fourth quarter of 1998.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
See note 1 to the consolidated financial
statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 for additional information regarding forward sales activities.
Copper Price Risk
Our future profitability and long-term viability will depend, in large part, on the market price of copper. Market prices for copper are
volatile and are affected by numerous factors beyond our control, including expectations regarding inflation, global and regional demand, speculative activities, political and economic conditions, and production costs in major copper producing
regions. The aggregate effect of these factors on copper prices is impossible for us to predict. A decrease in copper prices could adversely affect our ability to finance the development of the Las Cruces project, which would have a material adverse
affect on our results of operations and financial condition. A $0.01 decrease in the cash price per pound of copper could reduce annual cash flows from the Las Cruces project by up to $1 million.
From time to time, we may seek to mitigate the risk of
fluctuations in copper prices through periodic forward sales. Forward sales transactions result in a reduction in possible revenue if the contract price is less than the market price at the time of settlement. Additional risks associated with
forward sales activities could result if we are unable to meet the delivery requirements of forward sales contracts or to
22
extend delivery dates if necessary. The relative risks and benefits of engaging in forward sales activities depend on prevailing market
conditions.
Gold Price Risk
The results of our operations from residual gold production
at the Castle Mountain Mine are affected significantly by the market price of gold. Gold prices are influenced by numerous factors over which we have no control, including expectations with respect to the rate of inflation, the relative strength of
the U.S. dollar and other currencies, interest rates, global or regional political or economic crises, demand for gold for jewelry and industrial products and sales by holders and producers of gold in response to these factors. A 10% decrease in the
price of gold could reduce our expected 2003 product sales revenue by up to $0.2 million.
In the past we have entered into option contracts and forward sales contracts to establish a minimum selling price on some of the ounces of gold that we produce. We do not enter into option or sales
contracts for the purpose of speculative trading. Our current policy provides for the use of forward sales contracts for up to 80% of the remaining residual production at the Castle Mountain Mine. However, we expect to sell the remaining production
primarily at spot prices at various times. At March 31, 2003 and 2002, we had no ounces of gold sold under forward sales contracts.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Portions of our activities are located in Spain and Peru. We also conduct exploration activities in other countries from time to time. Our
future profitability could be impacted by fluctuations in foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. A 10% increase in the value of the euro relative to the U.S. dollar could increase our estimate of the cost to develop the Las Cruces project
by up to $24 million. We have not entered into any foreign currency contracts or other derivatives to establish a foreign currency protection program.
Interest Rate Risk
At March 31, 2003, we had borrowed $33.4 million under our credit facility with Leucadia National Corporation. The credit facility carries
a variable interest rate equal to the prime rate. At March 31, 2003, the prime rate was 4.25%. A 1% increase in the prime rate would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $0.3 million. The credit facility will expire on January 3,
2005, unless terminated earlier. Leucadia may terminate the credit facility on December 15 of any year, provided Leucadia notifies us of the termination before September 15 of that year. Leucadia has notified us that it does not intend to terminate
the credit facility prior to January 2, 2004. We have not undertaken any hedging activities with respect to the credit facility.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on their evaluation as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our chief executive office
