METALINE CONTACT MINES
CONDENSED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2005
 
NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Metaline Contact Mines (hereinafter “Metaline” or “the Company”) was incorporated in November of 1928 under the laws of the State of Washington for the purpose of engaging in mining and the buying and selling of ores, metals, and minerals.
The Company was reorganized and recapitalized in 1960 and its articles of incorporation were amended to expand its business purposes to include various additional business activities. Metaline has continued its operations since its formation and has historically acquired land, mineral rights, patented lode mining claims, and timber in the Pacific Northwest.
In the last quarter of 1996, Metaline transferred substantially all of its assets to a limited liability company.
The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.
NOTE 2 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The foregoing unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Regulation S-B as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements furnished herein include all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions and could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005.

NOTE 3 — RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 153 (hereinafter “SFAS No. 153”). This statement addresses the measurement of exchanges of nonmonetary assets. The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, “Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions,” is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. SFAS No. 153 amends APB Opinion 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. This statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for nonmonetary asset exchanges incurred during fiscal years beginning after the date of this statement is issued. Management believes the adoption of this statement will not impact the financial statements of the Company.
NOTE 4 — MINERAL PROPERTIES
Pend Oreille/Metaline Zinc Mines
The Company is receiving royalty payments related to a lease agreement with Teck Cominco American, Inc. (hereinafter “Teck Cominco”). Under the terms of the agreement, Teck Cominco has the right to explore, develop, and mine the Company’s underground mineral rights in Pend Oreille County, Washington for a period of twenty years with an option renewal period of the same length. Teck Cominco is currently obligated to pay the Company $3,880 per quarter, with ascending quarterly increments at each successive five year interval. The lease characterizes the aforementioned quarterly disbursements as “advance royalty payments” which may be fully offset against a three-percent production royalty retained by the Company. The lease agreement gives Teck Cominco the option to purchase 200 surface acres of the leased property for fair market value during the lease term. From the inception of the lease through June 30, 2005, the Company has received $113,379 in payments from Teck Cominco.
Golden Chest Mine
In January 2004, the Company issued 466,954 shares of its common stock to Paymaster Resources Incorporated (hereinafter “Paymaster”), a related party (due to common officers and directors), in order to acquire Paymaster’s interest in the Golden Chest Mine minerals lease to patented mining claims in Shoshone County, Idaho. In this transaction, the Company also acquired Paymaster’s interest in an exploration agreement with New Jersey Mining Company, which relates to the aforementioned mining claims.
During the 2 nd quarter of 2005, the Company received production royalties from New Jersey Mining Company of $1,324 from development ore mined in 2004. The terms of the lease require the owner of the real property (mine) to receive one-half of the royalty payments in the form of rent.

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During 1998, Metaline Contact Mines, LLC (“The LLC”) sold property for a net gain of $5,958,762. Metaline’s share of this gain, before adjustments of the Company’s investment from The LLC’s operating results and write down from its substantial decrease in ownership of The LLC, was $507,858. The Company recorded a related party receivable of $109,413 for the balance of the distribution. Due to uncertainty as to the date this receivable will be collected, this asset together with accrued interest at the rate of 7 percent per annum is recorded as a non-current asset.
Over the years, Metaline has executed agreements with Nor-Pac Limited Company (hereinafter “Nor-Pac”), an affiliated company. In November of 2004, The LLC assigned its rights, title and interest in the Company’s aforementioned related party receivable of $109,413 and accrued interest to Nor-Pac.
NOTE 6 — INCOME TAXES
At June 30, 2005, the Company had a net deferred tax asset of approximately $218,000, principally arising from net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes, which was calculated using a 34% tax rate. This resulted in a decrease to the net deferred tax asset of approximately $8,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. As management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset, the Company has a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred tax asset.
At June 30, 2005, the Company has a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $641,000, which will fully expire in the year 2024.
NOTE 7 — STOCK OPTIONS
The Company did not engage in stock option activity during the first two quarters of 2005. Summarized information about stock options outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2005 is as follows:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations
    RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
    The Company had gross operating revenues from its 2 mineral projects of $5,204 during the second quarter of 2005, versus $8,680 in 2004, broken down as follows:
 
    Golden Chest Mine
 
    The Company’s Golden Chest Mine generated revenues from operations of $1,324 in the second quarter of 2005, versus $4,800 in the second quarter of 2004. The decrease of $3,476 was the difference between the fair market value of the stock payment received during the second quarter of 2004 from New Jersey Mining Company (hereinafter “New Jersey”) during the exploration agreement on the mine, and actual cash NSR royalty payments received in the second quarter of 2005 from the development ore mined during the 2004 ramp project.
 
    Pend Oreille/Metaline Zinc Mines
 
    The amount of the advanced royalties received from Teck Cominco American Incorporated (hereinafter “Teck Cominco”) under the New Cominco Lease remained constant at $3,880 in the second quarters of 2005 and 2004.
 
    Operating Loss
 
    The Company experienced an overall operating loss of $7,199 in the second quarter of 2005, versus $5,992 in the second quarter of 2004. The increased loss was mainly due the decrease in revenues received from the Golden Chest Mine project discussed above.
 
    There was a $2,269 decrease in administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2005 to $12,403, versus $14,672 in the second quarter of 2004. The decrease is attributable to: a decrease of $490 in accounting fees; $608 in financial printing expenses; $1,738 in rent expense; and $1,760 in transfer agent fees. These decreases were, however, offset by increases of $1,345 in promotional fees, and other office expense-type items. Promotional expenses have been increasing due to management’s efforts to introduce the Company and its projects to the investment community.
 
    Other Income
 
    During the second quarter of 2005, the Company’s other income increased by $516, to $2,341, from $1,825 in 2004, due to an increase in dividend income of $368, and the Company having no loss on its 7% membership interest in Metaline Contact Mines LLC. Interest income remained constant at $1,915 for the second quarters of 2005 and 2004.
 
    FINANCIAL CONDITION
 
    It is management’s opinion that the Company can continue as an on-going business at its current level of operations for approximately 2 years without the infusion of additional capital. Additional capital could be obtained from: increased revenues from operations; the sale of shares of the Company’s authorized, but unissued, common stock; and/or the sale of certain of the Company’s assets.

Table of Contents

    On the subject of increasing revenues from operations, production decisions on the Company’s mineral projects are under the sole control of third parties; namely, Teck Cominco and New Jersey. However, during the second quarter of 2005, New Jersey commenced commercial mining operations at the Company’s Golden Chest Mine. Anticipated production is 50 metric ton per day from which the Company will receive NSR production royalties. At this time, however, the Company is unable to project the impact these NSR royalty revenues will have on the Company’s future earnings due to the newness of the mining operation.
 
    LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
    Traditionally, the Company has funded its capital requirements from revenues from operations, dividends earned on its cash accounts, and other income. As of June 30, 2005, the Company’s cash position was $84,794, compared to $90,652 on June 30, 2004. The Company has no debt, and does not expect to incur any debt in the immediate future. The Company’s most significant cash requirements are professional fees and expenses associated with its Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements.
 
    The Company has a related party receivable from Nor-Pac Limited Company in the amount of $109,413, with accrued interest of $34,466, as of June 30, 2005. The Company believes it has the ability to collect this receivable in the event of a shortfall of cash. In addition, the Company owns 60,000 shares of New Jersey common stock with a recorded value of $25,600, which shares could be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
 
    Subsequent Event
 
    On July 28, 2005, the Company received NSR production royalties from New Jersey, as follows: $777.00 from the sale of sulfide concentrates generated from commercial mining operations at the Golden Chest Mine during a portion of the second quarter of 2005; and $75.31 from the sale of the balance of the higher-grade material recovered from the cleanout of New Jersey’s ball mill from development ore mined during the 2004 ramp project.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
    The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. On that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s current disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2005 in ensuring that all material information required in this quarterly report has been made known to them in a timely fashion.
    There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal controls over financial reporting.
 
    For further information refer to the Controls and Procedures section in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2004, incorporated herein by reference.
