PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
Item 1.
 
Introduction to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Golden River Resources Corporation (“Golden River Resources” or the “Company”) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2010.
 
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and consolidating entries, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010, the results of its consolidated operations for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and the changes in its consolidated cash flows for the six month periods ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, have been included.  The results of consolidated operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Foreign Currency Translation

Prior to July 1, 2009, the Company’s functional and reporting currency was the Australian dollar and its subsidiary, Golden Bull Resources Corporation’s functional currency was the Canadian dollar. However, as a result of the purchase of the controlling interest in Acadian Mining Corporation in Canada in July 2009, the Company’s fiscal 2010 revenue and expenses are primarily denominated in Canadian dollars (CDN$). ASC Topic 830 “Foreign Currency Matters” states that the functional currency of an entity is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Accordingly the Company determined that from July 1, 2009 the functional and reporting currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar. Assets, liabilities and portions of equity were translated at the rate of exchange at July 1, 2009 and portions of equity were translated at historical exchange rates.  Revenue and expenses were translated at actual rates. Translation gains and losses were included as part of accumulated other comprehensive loss.
 
Restatement of comparative numbers was made for the change in functional and reporting currency. The change was adopted prospectively beginning July 1, 2009 in accordance with ASC Topic 830.
 
Restatement of Financial Statements
 
The financial statements for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 have been restated to revise the fair value amounts related to the assets and liabilities of Acadian Mining Corporation (Acadian).
 
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company completed the accounting for the acquisition of Acadian and as a result, adjustments were made to the preliminary fair value accounting at the date of acquisition. The preliminary fair value estimates and the final fair value amounts of the assets and liabilities of Acadian at acquisition date are disclosed in note 2.
 
UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED, ALL FINANCIAL INFORMATION PRESENTED IS IN CANADIAN DOLLARS.

GOLDEN RIVER RESOURCES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010
 
(1)           Organisation
 
Golden River Resources Corporation (“Golden River Resources” or the “Company”), formerly Bay Resources Ltd, is incorporated in the State of Delaware. The principal shareholders of Golden River Resources are companies associated with the President of Golden River Resources and his spouse. These companies owned 96.7% of Golden River Resources as of December 31, 2010.
 
During fiscal 1998, Golden River Resources incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Baynex.com Pty Ltd, under the laws of Australia. On August 21, 2000, Golden River Resources incorporated a new wholly owned subsidiary, Bay Resources (Asia) Pty Ltd under the laws of Australia. In April 2008, the Company deregistered inactive subsidiaries Baynex.com Pty Ltd and Bay Resources (Asia) Pty Ltd. In May 2002, the Company incorporated a new wholly owned subsidiary, Golden Bull Resources Corporation (formerly 4075251 Canada Inc), a corporation incorporated under the laws of Canada. Golden Bull Resources Corporation is undertaking exploration activities for gold in Canada.
 
Golden River Resources, as part of its business strategy, is increasing its gold and base metal exploration activity in Canada and is continually sourcing new ground in Canada which is one of the most prospective areas for new gold discoveries. On March 17, 2009, the Company announced that it had reached agreement with Acadian Mining Corporation (TSX: ADA) ("Acadian") to subscribe in a private placement transaction giving Golden River Resources a 68.67% holding of Acadian. Golden River Resources currently holds 387,345,200 common shares in Acadian for a 71.53% interest.
 
The financial statements presented herein have been prepared on a consolidated basis to include the accounts of Golden River Resources, Acadian and its other subsidiaries (collectively “the Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, Golden River Resources is an exploration stage company which has not yet commenced revenue producing operations and has incurred losses since its inception. The Company has historically relied on loans and advances from corporations affiliated with its President and fund raising through the sale of equity instruments. The Company’s ability to continue operations through fiscal 2011 is dependent upon loans from affiliates, future funding from capital raisings, or its ability to commence revenue producing operations and positive cash flows.
 
(2)           Restatement of Financial Statements
 
The financial statements for the six month period ended December 31, 2009 have been restated to revise the fair value amounts related to the assets and liabilities of Acadian.
 
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company completed the accounting for the acquisition of Acadian and as a result, adjustments were made to the preliminary fair value accounting at the date of acquisition. The following table discloses the preliminary fair value estimates and the final fair value amounts of the assets and liabilities of Acadian at acquisition date.
 
The aggregate effect of these changes to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed represents a material retrospective adjustment to provisional amounts previously recorded by the Company which were reflected in the December 31, 2009 interim financial statements filed by the Company.

(3)           Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505) – Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash. ASU 2010-01 clarifies that the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or shares with a potential limitation on the amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive is considered a share issuance. ASU 2010-01 is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009 and should be applied on a retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2010-01 did not have any impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-13, Share Based Payment Awards Denominated in Certain Currencies. The ASU guidance issued to amend ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation clarifies that an employee share-based payment award that has an exercise price denominated in the currency of the market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity shares trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity should not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. This amended guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2010-13 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
(4)           Affiliate Transactions
 
Golden River Resources advances to and receives advances from various affiliates.  All advances between consolidated affiliates are eliminated on consolidation.
 
The Company has entered into an agreement with AXIS Consultants Pty Ltd (“AXIS”) to provide geological, management and administration services to the Company. AXIS is affiliated through common management. The Company is one of ten affiliated companies to which AXIS provides services. Each of the companies has some common Directors, officers and shareholders. Golden River Resources holds a 9.09% interest in AXIS at a cost of A$1 and is accounted for under the cost method. Any profits generated by AXIS are returned to its shareholders in the form of dividends.
 
During the six months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, AXIS advanced the Company CDN$602,633 and CDN$251,091 respectively and provided services in accordance with the service agreement of CDN$66,607 and CDN$74,515 respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2010, the Company repaid CDN$1,622,400. The amounts owed to AXIS at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was CDN$340,556 and CDN$853,252 respectively and are reflected in non-current liabilities – advances from affiliates. During the six months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 AXIS did not charge interest.
 
During the 2009 fiscal year, in order to settle the first tranche of the acquisition of Acadian, Wilzed Pty Ltd, a company associated with Mr Joseph I Gutnick, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company advanced CDN$582,790 (A$650,000) to the Company. The Company repaid the advance on July 24, 2009. Wilzed did not charge interest on the advance.

In September, 2009, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with Northern Capital Resources Corp (“NCRC”) whereby NCRC would subscribe for 8.5 million shares at an issue price of US$1.00 per share to raise US$8.5 million. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, the Company (i) issued 5,056,671 shares of common stock at an issue price of US$1.00 per share raising CDN$5,582,790 during September 2009, (ii) on March 31, 2010, the Company issued 4,903,680 shares of common stock at a purchase price of US$1.00 per share for aggregate proceeds of CDN$5,181,196, and (iii) on July 14, 2010, the Company issued 1,427,580 shares at an issue price of US$1.00 per share, raising CDN$1,475,261. Effective as of December 31, 2010, the Company issued 32,448,000 shares at an issue price of US$0.05 per share, raising CDN$1,622,400. The proceeds have been utilized to help fund the acquisition of shares in Acadian and for working capital purposes. Mr Joseph Gutnick is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NCRC and certain companies with which Mr Gutnick is affiliated owned approximately 43.67% of the outstanding common stock of NCRC. NCRC currently holds approximately 96.578% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. The amount owed to NCRC at December 31, 2010 under current liabilities – advances from affiliates was CDN$205,211.
 
During the period ended December 31, 2009, Acadian shared office facilities with Royal Roads Corp and Buchans River Ltd (non-consolidated entities of Acadian) and Acadian charges common costs to these companies. The amount was offset against interest owing to Royal Roads on intercompany advances. The amount owing to Royal Roads Corp was repaid by Acadian in November 2009 on behalf of ScoZinc Ltd, a 100% owned subsidiary of Acadian.
 
In July 2009, Acadian acquired the remaining 50% of the 15 Mile Stream mineral claims for a cash payment of CDN$70,000 and a non-interest bearing note for CDN$1.0 million due July 2010 and a 1% net smelter royalty payable to Mr. Will Felderhof, the former President and CEO of Acadian, and members of his family. On July 8, 2010, the Company extended the terms of the CDN$1.0 million note for a further 12 months and paid a CDN$100,000 principal payment. Amounts due are reflected in current liabilities – note payable at December 31, 2010.
 
(5)           Stockholders’ Equity
 
On September 2, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company and the holder of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock approved a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the Common Stock and approved the mailing of an Information Statement to stockholders in relation to the reverse stock split, which became effective on November 1, 2010. The Company has accounted for this reverse stock split and accordingly, all share and per share data has been retroactively restated.
 
(6)           Issue of Options under Stock Option Plan
 
The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 718 Compensation-Stock Compensation ( “ASC 718”), which addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which a company receives employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of that company or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the company’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments.
 
The Company has accounted for all options issued based upon their fair market value using either the Black Scholes or Binomial option pricing method. Prior to 2006, the Company used the Black Scholes option pricing method to determine the fair market value of options issued. In 2006, the Company changed from using the Black Scholes option pricing method to the Binomial option pricing model. The Binomial option pricing model breaks down the time to expiration into a number of steps or intervals and can therefore be used to value American style options, taking into account the possibility of early exercise and reflect changing inputs over time. The options issued in 2006 have three vesting periods and therefore, the Company believed the Binomial option pricing model is a more accurate measure of the fair value of the options.
 
In October 2004, the Board of Directors and Remuneration Committee of the Company adopted a Stock Option Plan and agreed to issue 140,000 options to acquire shares of common stock in the Company, at an exercise price of US$10.00 per option, subject to shareholder approval which was subsequently received on January 27, 2005. All such options were vested by July 2006. The exercise price of US$10.00 was derived from the issue price of common stock from the placement of shares on September 30, 2004 and is considered by the Company’s Directors to be the fair value of the common stock.  The options expire on October 15, 2014.
 
The Company calculated the fair value of the 140,000 options using the Black Scholes valuation method using a fair value share price of US$10.00, strike price of US$10.00, maturity period of 5 years 7 ½ months, risk free interest rate of 5.15% and volatility of 20%.  This equates to a value of US$3.185 per option. The total value of the options equates to CDN$1,645,780 (US$1,352,820) and such amount was amortized over the vesting period. At December 31, 2010, the options were fully vested.
 
Consistent with the provisions of ASC 718, the Company recorded the fair value of stock option grants in stockholders equity. Under ASC 718 an equity instrument is not considered to be issued until the instrument vests. Accordingly, as provided in ASC 718 effective July 1, 2005, the Company has reversed CDN$551,000 (US$445,900) being the unamortized restricted stock compensation at June 30, 2005 included in stockholders equity for the unvested portions of stock option grants awarded prior to the effective date of ASC 718.

On October 19, 2006, the Directors of the Company agreed to offer a further 465,000 options under the Stock Option Plan. The options have no issue price, an exercise price of US$3.084 and a latest exercise date of October 19, 2016. The options vest 1/3 on October 19, 2007 (“T1”), 1/3 on October 19, 2008 (“T2”) and 1/3 on October 19, 2009 (“T3”). The Company obtained an external valuation on the options from an unrelated third party.
 
The Company, through an unrelated third party consultant, has calculated the fair value of the 465,000 options using the binomial option pricing model using a fair value share price of US$3.00, exercise price of US$3.08, expected life T1 - 5 years 6 months, T2 - 6 years, T3 - 6 years 6 months, risk-free interest rate of 4.75% and volatility of 90%. The total value of the options equates to CDN$1,207,860 (US$1,060,200) and such amount was amortised over the vesting period. At December 31, 2010, the options were fully vested.

(7)           Profit(Loss) per share
 
Basic profit/(loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. In prior periods the Company had on issue 1,000,000 special warrants which are exercisable at any time until expiration and for no consideration. On July 1, 2009 the Company re-purchased the warrants and immediately cancelled the options.
 
Profit/(Loss) per share
 
The Company calculates profit/(loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”.

(9)           Fair Value Of Financial Instruments
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, receivables, prepaid expenses and deposits, accounts payable and accrued expenses, note payable and advances from affiliates. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their respective fair values because of the short maturities of those instruments. The fair values of advances from affiliates are not practicable to estimate as no similar market exists for these instruments and as it does not have a specified date of repayment.
 
(10)         Reclassifications
 
Certain amounts in the 2009 financial statements are reclassified to conform to the 2010 presentation with no effect on the results of operations.

(12)         Mineral Rights
 
The fair-value of the mineral rights acquired in the acquisition of Acadian was based upon a valuation report prepared by an investment banking firm with substantial experience in merger and acquisition transactions including provision of fairness opinions and valuations.  Accordingly, the Company has attributed a fair value of CDN$43,790,000 to mineral rights.
 
(13)         Cash held for Site Remediation

(14)         Property, Plant and Equipment
 
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost.  The Company records depreciation and amortization, when appropriate, using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Additions, major renewals and replacements that increase the property's useful life are capitalized. Property sold or retired, together with the related accumulated depreciation is removed from the appropriate accounts and the resultant gain or loss is included in net income (loss).

(16)         Other Current Liability
 
ScoZinc (a subsidiary of Acadian) entered into lease agreements for heavy equipment with an Equipment Supplier ("Equipment Supplier") which transferred substantially all the benefits and risks of ownership to ScoZinc. ScoZinc's obligations under the leases were guaranteed by the Company. As Acadian had guaranteed the payment obligations with regard to such lease agreements, the accompanying financial statements reflect an accrual of the estimated amount owing under the guarantee which amounted to approximately CDN$2.1 million and CDN$1.9 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
 
During November 2010, Acadian entered into an agreement with the Equipment Supplier to make monthly installment payments through May 2011 totaling CDN$900,000 which would satisfy in full the aforementioned obligation under the guarantee.  Acadian has made payments aggregating CDN$200,000 in accordance with the agreement through December 31, 2010.
 
The agreement contains a provision that states that in the event Acadian fails to make any of the payments as required, the Equipment Supplier shall be entitled to take any and all actions available to it to enforce its rights under the guarantee.  In the period in which all of the payments required under the agreement have been made in full and upon being relieved of its obligation by the Equipment Supplier, the remaining balance of the accrued liability will be derecognized and a related gain of approximately CDN$1.2 million will then be recorded by Acadian.
 
(17)         Income Taxes
 
The Company recognises deferred tax assets or liabilities for the expected future consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amount of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

(18)         Subsequent Events
 
The Company has evaluated significant events subsequent to the balance sheet date and has determined that there were no subsequent events or transactions which would require recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements, other than noted herein.
 
Acadian announced on February 8, 2011 that it had signed a letter of intent with Selwyn Resources Ltd. (“Selwyn”) whereby Selwyn would acquire the zinc and lead assets of Acadian for a cash consideration of CDN$10 million. The sale will be consummated by Selwyn acquiring all of the issued and outstanding shares of ScoZinc Limited (“ScoZinc”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Acadian, which holds all of the assets associated with the Scotia Mine located in Nova Scotia (“Acquisition”). Selwyn and Acadian have agreed to an exclusive period expiring on February 14, 2011 to complete a binding letter agreement for the Acquisition. Upon completion of the Acquisition, Selwyn will own the mine-mill complex and an extensive mineral claims package owned by ScoZinc. The Acquisition is subject to completion of formal documentation, regulatory approval and the achievement of certain conditions prior to closing, including Selwyn being satisfied with the results of an environmental audit by an independent consulting group and Selwyn receiving an independent NI 43-101 Technical Report confirming the Mineral Resources reported by ScoZinc. The parties have agreed to act expeditiously and in good faith in finalizing and executing a binding letter agreement and, thereafter, a more formal agreement of purchase and sale. Acadian has agreed to the payment of a break fee in the amount of $1.5 million if it receives and accepts an unsolicited superior proposal. During the exclusive period, Acadian has agreed to negotiate exclusively with Selwyn. Acadian estimates, after costs per the agreement including costs for site remediation,that the net proceeds from the sale of ScoZinc will be approximately CDN $6,500,000.
 
The carrying value of ScoZinc assets are CDN$10.0 million and liabilities CDN$3.5 million as of December 31, 2010 and consists of the following:

Item 2.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
FUND COSTS CONVERSION
 
The consolidated statements of operations and other financial and operating data contained elsewhere here in and the consolidated balance sheets and financial results have been reflected in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.
 
The following table shows the average rate of exchange of the Canadian dollar as compared to the US dollar and Australian dollar during the periods indicated:
 
6 months ended December 31, 2009 CDN$1.00 = US$.9532
6 months ended December 31, 2010 CDN$1.00 = US$1.0001
6 months ended December 31, 2009 CDN$1.00 = A$1.0675
6 months ended December 31, 2010 CDN$1.00 = A$.98420
 
Prior to July 1, 2009, the Company’s functional and reporting currency was the Australian dollar and its subsidiary, Golden Bull Resources Corporation’s functional currency was the Canadian dollar. However, as a result of the purchase of the controlling interest in Acadian Mining Corporation in Canada in July 2009, the Company’s fiscal 2010 revenue and expenses are primarily denominated in Canadian dollars (CDN$). ASC Topic 830 “Foreign Currency Matters” states that the functional currency of an entity is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Accordingly the Company determined that from July 1, 2009 the functional and reporting currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar. Assets, liabilities and portions of equity were translated at the rate of exchange at July 1, 2009 and portions of equity were translated at historical exchange rates.  Revenue and expenses were translated at actual rates. Translation gains and losses were included as part of accumulated other comprehensive loss.
 
Restatement of comparative numbers was made for the change in functional and reporting currency. The change was adopted prospectively beginning July 1, 2009 in accordance with ASC Topic 830.
 
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in Canadian dollars (CDN$). A number of the costs and expenses of the Company are incurred in US and Australian dollars and the conversion of these costs to CDN$ means that the comparison of the six months ended December 31, 2010 to the six months ended December 31, 2009 does not always present a true comparison.
 
Golden River Resources as part of its business strategy increased its gold exploration activity in Canada. On March 17, 2009, the Company announced that it had reached agreement with Acadian Mining Corporation (TSX: ADA) ("Acadian") to subscribe in a private placement transaction for up to 33,811,133 common shares ("Offering") in Acadian for aggregate gross investment of up to CDN$10 million. Throughout July 2009, Golden River Resources subscribed for further shares to a value of CDN$4 million and at July 31, 2009, the Company held a 52.764% interest in Acadian. As a result, Golden River Resources has since that time consolidated the results of Acadian. On September 30, 2009, a further closing for an aggregate of CDN$1 million occurred increasing the Company interest in Acadian to 57.145% and during October 2009, Golden River Resources completed its subscription in Acadian by subscribing for shares to the value of CDN$4 million which increased its interest in Acadian to 68.765%. In July 2010, Golden River Resources acquired further shares in Acadian and currently holds 71.53% of Acadian.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATION
 
Three Months Ended December 31, 2010 vs.Three Months Ended December 31, 2009.
 
Costs and expenses increased from CDN$1,325,000 in the three months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$1,371,000 in the three months ended December 31, 2010.
 
The increase in costs and expenses is a net result of:
 
a)  
a decrease in stock based compensation from CDN$6,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$nil for the three months ended December 31, 2010 as a result of the number of options being fully expensed prior to the current period. See Note 6 concerning the Company’s outstanding stock options.
 
b)  
an increase in the exploration expenditure expense from CDN$584,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$761,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010. For Golden River Resources, the costs related to consultants providing exploration reviews and advice on the Slave and Committee Bay properties as no field work was undertaken during the three months ended December 31, 2009 or 2010 by the Company. Included within exploration expenditure expense for the three months ended December 31, 2010 is work undertaken by Acadian for field exploration activities on its gold properties and certain maintenance work on its Scotia mine which is currently on care and maintenance and an increase in site remediation accrual for Acadian’s exploration and mining sites and write off of reclamation costs. In the quarter ended December 31, 2009, Acadian’s exploration expenditure was higher than the current year as it was required to conduct a large exploration program to maintain its properties and there was an increase in the provision for site remediation.

c)  
a decrease in interest expense from CDN$40,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$(107,000) for the three months ended December 31, 2010. The interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2010 relates to the reversal of accruals for interest on the Komatsu liability following confirmation from Komatsu of the amount owing.
 
d)  
a decrease in legal, accounting and professional expense from CDN$187,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$165,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010. Included within legal, accounting and professional expense for the three months ended December 31, 2010 is CDN$62,000 which relates to the Company’s tax compliance work, CDN$51,000 for costs associated with the Company’s SEC compliance obligations and CDN$52,000 for Acadian which relates to general legal work, audit and stock transfer costs. The decrease is primarily the result of a reduction in legal costs of Acadian following the settlement of the CCAA proceedings and a legal dispute in the prior year.
 
e)  
an increase in administrative costs including salaries from CDN$376,000 in the three months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$424,000 in the three months ended December 31, 2010. Included within administrative expense for the three months ended December 31, 2010 is CDN$368,000 for Acadian compared to CDN$277,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 which includes head office salaries, rent, office related costs and travel. The increase relates to the increased cost of the new Acadian President & CEO and an increase in office and statutory filing costs.
 
As a result of the foregoing, the loss from operations decreased from CDN$1,325,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$1,371,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010.
 
The Company recorded a foreign currency exchange loss of CDN$21,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010 compared to a foreign currency exchange gain of CDN$10,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2009, primarily due to revaluation of advances from affiliates which are denominated in Australian dollars.
 
The Company recorded a profit on disposal of plant and equipment of CDN$48,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010 for which there was no comparable amount for the three months ended December 31, 2009. Acadian disposed of surplus equipment which generated the profit.
 
The Company has recorded a writeoff of plant and equipment of CDN$170,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010 for which there was no comparable amount for the three months ended December 31, 2009.

Six Months Ended December 31, 2010 vs. Six Months Ended December 31, 2009.
 
The financial statements for the six month period ended December 31, 2009 have been restated to revise the fair value amounts related to assets and liabilities of Acadian. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company completed the accounting for the acquisition of Acadian and as a result, adjustments were made to the preliminary fair value accounting at the date of acquisition. The following table discloses the preliminary fair value estimates and the final fair value amounts of the assets and liabilities of Acadian at acquisition date.
 
The aggregate effect of these changes to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed represents a material retrospective adjustment to provisional amounts previously recorded by the Company which were reflected in the December 31, 2009 interim financial statements filed by the Company.

Golden River Resources, as part of its business strategy, increased its gold exploration activity in Canada. On March 17, 2009, the Company announced that it had reached agreement with Acadian Mining Corporation (TSX: ADA) ("Acadian") to subscribe in a private placement transaction for up to 33,811,133 common shares ("Offering") in Acadian for aggregate gross investment of up to CDN$10 million.
 
Throughout July 2009, Golden River Resources subscribed for further shares to a value of CDN$4 million and at July 31, 2009, the Company held a 52.764% interest in Acadian. As a result, Golden River Resources has since that time consolidated the results of Acadian. On September 30, 2009, a further closing for an aggregate of CDN$1 million occurred increasing the Company interest in Acadian to 57.145% and during October 2009, Golden River Resources completed its subscription in Acadian by subscribing for shares to the value of CDN$4 million which increased its interest in Acadian to 68.765%. During the six months ended December 31, 2010 the Company purchased an additional 49,233,866 shares increasing its holding in Acadian to 71.53% at December 31, 2010.
 
As a result of the acquisition of Acadian, commencing at the end of March 2009, there is a lack of comparability between the Company’s results for the six months ended December 31, 2009 (as the results of Acadian were only consolidated for five months) and the six months ended December 31, 2010.
 
Costs and expenses increased from CDN$2,573,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$3,174,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2010. As a result of the acquisition of Acadian, a comparison of costs and expenses from 2009 to 2010 is not necessarily accurate.
 
 
 
18

 
 
The increase in costs and expenses is a net result of:
 
a)  
a decrease in stock based compensation from CDN$39,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$nil for the six months ended December 31, 2010 as a result of options being fully expensed prior to the current period. See Note 6 concerning the Company’s outstanding stock options.
 
b)  
an increase in the exploration expenditure expense from CDN$1,284,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$1,590,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010. In relation to Golden River Resources, the costs related to consultants providing exploration reviews and advice on the Slave and Committee Bay properties as no field work was undertaken during the six months ended December 31, 2009 or 2010. Included within exploration expenditure expense for the six months ended December 31, 2010 is CDN$986,000 for field exploration activities on Acadian’s gold properties and certain maintenance work on its Scotia mine which is currently on care and maintenance.
 
c)  
a decrease in interest expense from CDN$139,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$(65,000) for the six months ended December 31, 2010. The interest expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2010 relates to the reversal of accruals for interest on the Komatsu liability following  confirmation of the final amount owing.
 
d)  
an increase in legal, accounting and professional expense from CDN$306,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$401,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010. Included within legal, accounting and professional expense for the six months ended December 31, 2010 is CDN$146,000 which relates to the Company’s tax compliance work, CDN$96,000 for costs associated with the Company’s SEC compliance obligations and $159,000 for Acadian which relates to general legal work, audit and stock transfer costs. The increase in the current year relates to professional services on tax related matters.
 
e)  
an increase in administrative costs including salaries from CDN$585,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$995,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2010. Included within administrative expense for the six months ended December 31, 2010 is CDN$940,000 for Acadian which includes head office salaries, rent, office related costs and travel. The increase relates to the increased cost of the new President & CEO of Acadian, increased travel and accommodation costs of Acadian in its activities, supplies and office and general costs.
 
As a result of the foregoing, the loss from operations increased from CDN$2,573,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 to CDN$3,174,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010.
 
The Company recorded a foreign currency exchange gain of CDN$5,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 compared to a foreign currency exchange loss of CDN$147,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010, primarily due to revaluation of advances from affiliates.
 
The Company recorded a profit on disposal of plant and equipment of CDN$48,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010 for which there was no comparable amount for the six months ended December 31, 2009. Acadian disposed of surplus equipment.
 
The Company has recorded a writeoff of plant and equipment of CDN$170,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010 for which there was no comparable amount for the six months ended December 31, 2009.  Acadian wrote down the carrying value of plant and equipment after a physical review.
 
The Company obtained control of Acadian in July, 2009 and since that date the Company has consolidated the results of Acadian. In accordance with US GAAP, the Company calculated the difference between the fair value of assets acquired at acquisition date and the carrying value of its investment in an unconsolidated entity (Acadian) at acquisition date. For the six months ended December 31, 2009, the Company recorded an adjustment to fair value on stepped acquisition of CDN$7,433,000. There was no comparable adjustment in the six months ended December 31, 2010.
 
The Company has recorded a gain on bargain purchase of CDN$10,305,000 which is disclosed separately on the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2009. The gain represents the excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired over (i) fair value of the non controlling interest; (ii) fair value of the equity investment held prior to acquisition; and, (iii) the cash consideration paid, subsequent to acquiring a majority interest in Acadian.
 
The Company has recorded interest income of CDN$1,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 and  for the six months ended December 31, 2010.
 
The loss before income tax and equity in profits/(losses) of non-consolidated entities for the six months ended December 31, 2010 was CDN$3,442,000 compared to a profit for the six months ended December 31, 2009 of CDN$15,171,000.
 
 
 
19

 
 
The Company has recorded a provision for tax of CDN$105,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010 compared to a provision for tax of CDN$2,624,000  for the six months ended December 31, 2009, as a result of the acquisition of majority interest in Acadian. The accounting standards require the Company to recognize a provision for tax for the difference between the fair value of the net assets of Acadian and  the acquisition cost.
 
The loss before equity in profits of unconsolidated entities for the six months ended December 31, 2010 was CDN$3,547,000 compared to a profit for the six months ended December 31, 2009 of CDN$12,547,000.
 
As noted above, the Company held a 19.89% interest in Acadian at June 30, 2009 which increased to 52.764% at July 31, 2009. The Company accounted for its 19.89% interest in Acadian for the month of July 2009 using the equity method of accounting. Further, the Company via Acadian, held a 29.18% interest in Royal Roads Corp which was accounted for using the equity method of accounting and its share of the loss of the unconsolidated entities for the six months ended December 31, 2009 was CDN$326,000. Acadian sold its interest in Royal Roads in April 2010.
 
The net loss was CDN$3,547,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010 compared to a net profit of CDN$12,873,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009.
 
The share of the loss attributable to the non-controlling interests of Acadian amounted to CDN$795,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010 compared to CDN$971,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009.
 
The net loss attributable to Golden River Resources stockholders amounted to CDN$2,752,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010 compared to a net profit of CDN$13,844,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
For the six months ended December 31, 2010, net cash used by operating activities was CDN$1,174,000 primarily consisting of the net loss of CDN$3,547,000; site remediation CDN$400,000; write down of plant and equipment of CDN$170,000, reclamation costs of CDN$377,000 and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of CDN$1,063,000; net cash used in investing activities of CDN$1,420,000 being primarily the net cost of the additional investment in Acadian; and net cash provided by financing activities of  CDN$2,147,000 primarily consisting of funds from the sale of common stock of CDN$3,097,000, borrowings from affiliates of CDN$672,000 and repayments to affiliates of CDN$1,622,000.
 
In the six months ended December 31,2010, the Company raised, in private placement transactions with Northern Capital Resources Corp (“NCRC”), CDN$3,097,661 through the issue of 33,875,580 shares of common stock.
 
As of December 31, 2010, the Company had short-term obligations of CDN$4,791,000 comprising accounts payable and accrued expenses, lease liabilities and a note payable.
 
We have CDN$510,000 in cash at December 31, 2010.
 
Since fiscal 2004, we have undertaken field exploration programs on our Committee Bay and Slave properties. In relation to the Committee Bay properties, this was more than the minimum required expenditure and as a result, we have not had a legal obligation to undertake further exploration on these properties. However, our properties are prospective for gold and other minerals and commencing in fiscal 2011, we will be required to undertake field exploration programs on both the Slave and Committee Bay properties in order to maintain the leases. The Company will be required to incur expenditure or make payments in lieu of expenditure of CDN$397,000 prior to the end of 2011. Further, Acadian has an obligation to spend amounts on its mineral properties in order to maintain the leases and is required to spend CDN$1,400,000 on gold exploration properties and CDN$350,000 on base metal exploration properties during fiscal 2011. Our budget for general and administration costs for fiscal 2011 is CDN$500,000 and Acadian’s budget for the general and administration costs for fiscal 2011 is CDN$1,300,000.
 
Acadian announced on February 8, 2011 that it had signed a letter of intent with Selwyn Resources Ltd. (“Selwyn”) whereby Selwyn would acquire the zinc and lead assets of Acadian for a cash consideration of CDN$10 million. The sale will be consummated by Selwyn acquiring all of the issued and outstanding shares of ScoZinc Limited (“ScoZinc”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Acadian, which holds all of the assets associated with the Scotia Mine located in Nova Scotia (“Acquisition”). Selwyn and Acadian have agreed to an exclusive period expiring on February 14, 2011 to complete a binding letter agreement for the Acquisition. Upon completion of the Acquisition, Selwyn will own the mine-mill complex and an extensive mineral claims package owned by ScoZinc. The Acquisition is subject to completion of formal documentation, regulatory approval and the achievement of certain conditions prior to closing, including Selwyn being satisfied with the results of an environmental audit by an independent consulting group and Selwyn receiving an independent NI 43-101 Technical Report confirming the Mineral Resources reported by ScoZinc. The parties have agreed to act expeditiously and in good faith in finalizing and executing a binding letter agreement and, thereafter, a more formal agreement of purchase and sale. Acadian has agreed to the payment of a break fee in the amount of $1.5 million if it receives and accepts an unsolicited superior proposal. During the period, Acadian has agreed to negotiate exclusively with Selwyn. Acadian estimates that the net proceeds from the sale of ScoZinc will be approximately CDN$6,500,000. Acadian, at the time of sale, estimates the carrying value of ScoZinc assets will be CDN$10.0 million and liabilities CDN$3.5 million.

We are currently investigating other capital raising opportunities which may be in the form of either equity or debt, to provide funding for working capital purposes and future exploration programs. There can be no assurance that such capital raising will be successful, or that even if an offer of financing was received by the Company, it is on terms acceptable to the Company.
 
Cautionary Safe Harbor Statement under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
 
Certain information contained in this Form 10-Q’s forward looking information within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995 (the “Act”) which become law in December 1995.  In order to obtain the benefits of the “safe harbor” provisions of the act for any such forwarding looking statements, the Company wishes to caution investors and prospective investors about significant factors which among others have affected the Company’s actual results and are in the future likely to affect the Company’s actual results and cause them to differ materially from those expressed in any such forward looking statements.  This Form 10-Q report contains forward looking statements relating to future financial results.  Actual results may differ as a result of factors over which the Company has no control including, without limitation, the risks of exploration and development stage projects, political risks of development in foreign countries, risks associated with environmental and other regulatory matters, mining risks and competition and the volatility of gold and copper prices, movements in the foreign exchange rate and the availability of additional financing for the Company. Investors are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We disclaim any intent or obligation to update publicly these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Additional information which could affect the Company’s financial results is included in the Company’s Form 10-K on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
Item 3.
 
At December 31, 2010, the Company had outstanding loan facilities of CDN$545,000. No interest is currently payable of the loan.
 
The Company reports in CDN$ and holds cash in Australian dollars. At December 31, 2010, this amounted to A$28,697. A change in the exchange rate between the A$ and the CDN$ will have an effect on the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and create a foreign exchange gain or loss. A movement of 1% in the A$ versus the CDN$ exchange rate will have a CDN$287 effect on the consolidated balance sheet and income statement of operations.
 
Item 4.
 
(a)
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, such principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report at the reasonable level of assurance.
 
 (b)
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of fiscal 2011 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
 
 (c)
Other
 
We believe that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.  Therefore, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide such reasonable assurance of achieving our desired control objectives, and our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded, as of December 31, 2010, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in achieving that level of reasonable assurance.
