General and Administration

Comparison of the quarterly results

Overall, there was a 30% increase in general and administration expenses to $108,062 in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 from $83,268 in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 and a 1.7% decrease from $106,163 recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The variances were as follows:

i.  The Company recorded $240,000 stock based compensation during the second

    quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to nil during the comparable period

    in fiscal 2011 and nil recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2012;

ii. The Company recorded a loss on foreign exchange of $21,180 during the

second quarter of fiscal 2012, as compared to a foreign exchange gain of

$1,495 in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 and a $16,775 loss recorded

in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 on the translation of our

international subsidiaries;
iii.Promotion and trade show costs increased to $29,596 in the second

quarter of fiscal 2012 from $20,923 in the second quarter of 2011. The

primary difference is a result of marketing costs targeting the social

media network. There was also an increase from the $21,303 recorded in

the first quarter of fiscal 2012 because of the additional investor

relations costs; 
iv. Salaries and benefits increased during the second quarter of fiscal 2012

to $14,286 from $8,643 recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2011,

due to additional administration required for its property record

keeping, regulatory filings and other legal document filings;
v. Filing fees increased during the second quarter of fiscal 2012 to

$10,264 compared to $1,886 incurred in the comparable period in fiscal

2011 primarily because of additional TSX-V filings related to stock

options and annual fees; and,
vi. The Company incurred $19,945 in accretion of finance fees and interest

accruals on the loan payable in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 and

nil in the comparable period in fiscal 2011;

The Company recorded a net loss of $384,365 during the second quarter of fiscal 2012, as compared to a net loss of $83,816 during the second quarter of fiscal 2011. The primary reason for difference is the $240,000 stock based compensation expense and the $21,180 foreign exchange loss.

iii.Promotion and trade show costs decreased to $50,899 in the first six

months of fiscal 2012 from $58,296 in the first six months of fiscal

during the first six months of fiscal 2011;
iv. Salaries and benefits increased during the first six months of fiscal

Exploration Programs

Nivloc Mine, Nevada Property

The Nivloc Mining Project is an advanced exploration project focused on the past-producing Nivloc silver-gold mine in the Silver Peak mining district in Nevada.

To date the Company has completed a 10,500 metres drill program consisting of 37 drill holes. The Company plans to continue the drilling program in October / November of 2012, which program will be funded by the exercise of outstanding warrants and a planned private placement. Drill hole results from drill hole 1 through drill hole 34 have been announced by the Company and these results have been filed on SEDAR and can be reviewed on the Company’s website at www.immc.ca.

Simon Mine, Nevada Property

The Simon Mine is a former producing polymetallic mine, located in the Walker-Lane Trend south of Reno, Nevada. Shut down in the late 1960s, this project now presents itself as an exploration and development play offering both size and grade potential for long-term mining. Historical records of ore shipped from the 905 drift (89 rail cars) indicate average grades 12 oz Ag, 0.04 oz Au, 9% Pb, 5.7% Zn and 3% Cu. (These historic figures are considered relevant and demonstrate the potential of the property, but need to be verified by the Company). A drilling program began in February, 2010 and was completed in August, 2010. Results were reported for seven drill holes. The Company plans to carry out a phase II drill program sometime in 2012/2013.

Subsequent Events

At August 16, 2012, the Company announced by news release, filed on SEDAR and the Company’s website, the results of its initial National Instrument 43-101 compliant independent Mineral Resource Estimate on its Nivloc Silver and Gold Project located in Southwest Nevada, USA (the “Nivloc Property”). The independent technical report on the Nivloc Property (the “Technical Report”), dated effective December 31, 2011, concludes that the area tested by the 2011 drilling program contains an Inferred Mineral Resource, at 40 g/t Ag cut-off, of 1,640,000 tonnes at a grade of 106.47 g/t Ag and 0.78 g/t Au. The Technical Report recommends a Phase 1 exploration program having these objectives: 1) improving the level of confidence within the drilled area by tightening the drill spacing (at least 11 drill holes); 2) expanding the currently defined resource area by drill testing along strike towards the northeast and southwest (at least 5 drill holes); and 3) initiating preliminary metallurgical, and engineering studies and baseline data collection in anticipation of an underground exploration and development program (Phase II). This recommended work program is expected to upgrade the resource from the inferred to the indicated category, but there can be no assurance of such an expected upgrade. The recommended program includes a total of 16 drill holes (4,000 meters) and is estimated to cost approximately $1.3 million. The Technical Report will be filed on SEDAR on or before August 31, 2012.

Management is focused on precious metal polymetallic projects in the Americas and is working towards building a strong, stable and well financed mineral exploration and small mines mining company.
