Prospectus Summary
Please note that throughout this prospectus, the words "we", "our" or
"us" refers to Hudson Ventures, Inc. and not to the selling
stockholders.
Hudson Ventures Inc.
We intend to commence business operations in the mineral property
exploration sector. To date, we have not conducted any exploration
activities. We have entered into two mineral property option agreements
whereby we may acquire a 90% interest in a total of 13 mineral claims
located in the Whitehorse and Watson Lake Mining Districts, Yukon
Territory, Canada. We refer to these mineral claims respectively as the
Wheaton River Property and the McConnell River Property. These options
are exercisable by us completing aggregate exploration expenditures of
$195,000 on the Wheaton River Property by December 31, 2004 (as the
terms of the original option agreement were amended by deleting the
reference to "December 31, 2002" in section 2.1(C) and inserting
"December 31, 2003" and further by deleting the reference to "December
31, 2003" in section 2.1(D) and inserting "December 31, 2004"; thus, by
December 31, 2003, we are required to incur Property Expenditures in the
amount of $15,000 US and we are required to incur Property Expenditures
in the amount of an additional $180,000 US by December 31, 2004;
"Property Expenditures" means all reasonable and necessary monies
expended on or in connection with exploration and development;) and
$25,000 on the McConnell River Property by June 30, 2004 (on June 1,
2003, for the sum of $1000 Cdn., Glen Macdonald agreed to amend the term
of the option for the McConnell River property by extending the time by
which we must complete the aggregate exploration expenditures on the
McConnell River property until June 30, 2004 by specifically amending
the terms of the Option Agreement by deleting the reference to "June 30,
2003" in section 2.1(B) and inserting "June 30, 2004"; thus, by June 30,
2004, we are required to incur Property Expenditures in the amount of
$25,000 US; "Property Expenditures" means all reasonable and necessary
monies expended on or in connection with exploration and development).
To date, $5,000 has been expended toward the Wheaton River Property. Our
corporate activities to date have mainly been of an organizational
nature including the acquisition of our two options and the preparatory
work in conjunction with filing this registration statement. To date, we
have not incurred any exploration expenditures on the McConnell River
Property.
Our objective is to conduct mineral exploration activities on the
Wheaton River Property and the McConnell River Property in order to
assess whether these claims possess commercially viable mineralization
of gold and/or silver. There can be no assurance that a commercially
viable deposit exists on either property until sufficient and
appropriate geological work, including economic feasibility has been
performed. Our proposed exploration program is designed to search for
commercially exploitable deposits.
We were incorporated on November 30, 2001 under the laws of the state of
Nevada. Our principal offices are located at 444 East Columbia Street,
New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada.
The Offering
Securities Being Offered Up to 1,587,000 shares of our common
stock. The offering price will be determined by
market factors and the independent decisions of
the selling shareholders.
Offering Price The selling shareholders will sell our
shares at $0.50 per share until our shares are
quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, and
thereafter at prevailing market prices or
privately negotiated prices. We determined
this offering price arbitrarily based upon the
price of the last sale of our common stock to
investors.
Terms of the Offering The selling shareholders will determine
when and how they will sell our common stock
offered in this prospectus.
Termination of the Offering The offering will conclude when all of the
1,587,000 shares of our common stock have been
sold, the shares no longer need to be
registered to be sold or we decide to terminate
the registration of shares.
Securities Issued
And to be Issued 3,087,000 shares of our common stock are
issued and outstanding as of the date of this
prospectus. All of our common stock to be sold
under this prospectus will be sold by existing
shareholders.
Use of Proceeds We will not receive any proceeds from the
sale of our common stock by the selling
shareholders.

Risk Factors
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You
should carefully consider the risks described below and the other
information in this prospectus before investing in our common stock. If
any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results and
financial condition could be seriously harmed. The trading price of our
common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose
all or part of your investment.
Risks Related To Our Financial Condition and Business Model
If we do not obtain additional financing, our business will fail.
Our current operating funds are less than necessary to complete the
exploration of the optioned mineral claims, and therefore we will need
to obtain additional financing in order to complete our business plan.
As of July 31, 2003, we had cash in the amount of $25,938.00. We
currently do not have any operations and we have no income. Our
business plan calls for significant expenses in connection with the
exploration of our optioned mineral claims. While we have sufficient
funds to conduct the $15,000 phase one recommended exploration program
on the Wheaton River Property, we will require additional financing of
$180,000 in order to complete the full-recommended exploration program
and to exercise the option relating to the property. Under an amendment
to the option agreement for the Wheaton River Property, the terms of the
original option agreement were amended by deleting the reference to
"December 31, 2002" in section 2.1(C) and inserting "December 31, 2003"
and further by deleting the reference to "December 31, 2003" in section
2.1(D) and inserting "December 31, 2004"; thus we are required to incur
Property Expenditures in the amount of $15,000 US by December 31, 2003,
and we are required to incur Property Expenditures in the amount of an
additional $180,000 US by December 31, 2004; "Property Expenditures"
means all reasonable and necessary monies expended on or in connection
with exploration and development. To date, $5,000 has been expended
toward the Wheaton River Property.
We will require an additional $25,000 to complete recommended
exploration of the McConnell River Property and to earn an interest in
the property. Under an amendment to the option agreement for the
McConnell River Property, the terms of the Option Agreement were amended
by deleting the reference to "June 30, 2003" in section 2.1(B) and
inserting "June 30, 2004"; thus, by June 30, 2004, we are required to
incur Property Expenditures in the amount of $25,000 US; "Property
Expenditures" means all reasonable and necessary monies expended on or
in connection with exploration and development. To date, we have not
incurred any exploration expenditures on the McConnell River Property.
We will also require additional financing if the costs of the
exploration of our optioned mineral claims are greater than anticipated.
We will require additional financing to sustain our business operations
if we are not successful in earning revenues once exploration is
complete. We do not currently have any arrangements for financing and
we can provide no assurance to investors that we will be able to find
such financing if required. Obtaining additional financing would be
subject to a number of factors, including the market prices for gold and
silver, investor acceptance of our property, and investor sentiment.
These factors may make the timing, amount, terms or conditions of
additional financing unavailable to us.
The most likely source of future funds presently available to us is
through the sale of equity capital. Any sale of share capital will
result in dilution to existing shareholders. The only other anticipated
alternative for the financing of further exploration would be the
offering by us of an interest in our properties to be earned by another
party or parties carrying out further exploration thereof, which is not
presently contemplated.
If we do not complete the required capital expenditure requirements
mandated in our option agreements, we will lose our interest in the
Wheaton River Property and the McConnell River Property and our business
will fail.
We are obligated to incur exploration expenditures totaling $195,000 in
order to exercise the option to acquire a 90% interest in the Wheaton
River Property. Under an amendment to the option agreement for the
Wheaton River Property, the terms of the original option agreement were
amended by deleting the reference to "December 31, 2002" in section
2.1(C) and inserting "December 31, 2003" and further by deleting the
reference to "December 31, 2003" in section 2.1(D) and inserting
"December 31, 2004"; thus we are required to incur Property Expenditures
in the amount of $15,000 US by December 31, 2003, and we are required to
incur Property Expenditures in the amount of an additional $180,000 US
by December 31, 2004; "Property Expenditures" means all reasonable and
necessary monies expended on or in connection with exploration and
development. To date, $5,000 has been expended toward the Wheaton
River Property.
We must also incur expenditures of $25,000 to acquire a 90% interest in
the McConnell River Property. Under an amendment to the option agreement
for the McConnell River Property, the terms of the Option Agreement were
amended by deleting the reference to "June 30, 2003" in section 2.1(B)
and inserting "June 30, 2004"; thus, by June 30, 2004, we are required
to incur Property Expenditures in the amount of $25,000 US; "Property
Expenditures" means all reasonable and necessary monies expended on or
in connection with exploration and development. To date, we have not
incurred any exploration expenditures on the McConnell River Property.
While our existing cash reserves are sufficient to enable us to complete
phase one of the geological exploration program recommended on the
Wheaton River Property, we will require substantial additional capital
to fund the continued exploration of our optioned mineral claims and
exercise the options described above. If we do not meet the exploration
expenditures required by the option agreements, we will forfeit our
interest in the Wheaton River Property and the McConnell River Property
and will have no interest in either mineral claim block. We have no
agreements for additional financing and we can provide no assurance to
investors that additional funding will be available to us on acceptable
terms, or at all, to continue operations, to fund new business
opportunities or to execute our business plan. If we lose our interest
in the optioned mineral claims, then there is a substantial risk that
our business will fail.
Because we have not commenced business operations, we face a high risk
of business failure.
We have not begun the initial stages of exploration of our optioned
mineral claims, and thus have no way to evaluate the likelihood that we
will be able to operate our business successfully. We were incorporated
on November 30, 2001 and to date have been involved primarily in
organizational activities and the acquisition of an interest in the
optioned mineral claims. We have not earned any revenues as of the date
of this prospectus. Potential investors should be aware of the
difficulties normally encountered by new mineral exploration companies
and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of
success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses,
difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with
the exploration of the mineral properties that we plan to undertake.
These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated
problems relating to exploration, and additional costs and expenses that
may exceed current estimates.
Prior to completion of our exploration stage, we anticipate that we will
incur increased operating expenses without realizing any revenues. We
therefore expect to incur significant losses into the foreseeable
future. We recognize that if we are unable to generate significant
revenues from the exploration of our optioned mineral claims and the
production of minerals thereon, if any, we will not be able to earn
profits or continue operations.
There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the
likelihood that we will prove successful, and we can provide investors
with no assurance that we will generate any operating revenues or ever
achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing
these risks, our business will most likely fail.
Because of the speculative nature of the exploration of mining
properties, there is substantial risk that no commercially exploitable
minerals will be found on either of our properties and our business will
fail.
The search for valuable minerals as a business is extremely risky. We
can provide investors with no assurance that the Wheaton River Property
and the McConnell River Property contain commercially viable
mineralization of gold and silver. Exploration for minerals is a
speculative venture necessarily involving substantial risk. The
expenditures to be made by us in the exploration of the optioned mineral
properties may not result in the discovery of commercial quantities of
ore.
Problems such as unusual or unexpected formations and other conditions
are involved in mineral exploration and often result in unsuccessful
exploration efforts. In such a case, we would be unable to complete our
business plan.
Because of the inherent Risks involved in mineral exploration, there is
a risk that we may incur liability or damages as we conduct our
business. In such circumstances, our business may fail.
The search for valuable minerals involves numerous hazards and only a
very few exploration projects actually become producing mines. As a
result, we may become subject to liability for such hazards, including
pollution, cave-ins and other hazards against which we cannot insure or
against which we may elect not to insure. If we realize any of the
above liabilities in the course of our exploration of the Wheaton River
Property or the McConnell River Property, we may become subject to
penalties or lawsuit damages that may prevent us from pursuing our
business plan, or may jeopardize all of our assets. In such
circumstances, our shareholders will lose all of their investment.
Even if we discover commercial reserves of precious metals on our
optioned mineral properties, we may not be able to obtain commercial
production.
The optioned mineral properties do not contain any known bodies of ore.
If our exploration programs are successful in establishing ore of
commercial tonnage and grade, we will require additional funds in order
to place the Wheaton River Property and the McConnell River Property
into commercial production. At this time, we can provide investors with
no assurance that we will be able to obtain such financing.
We need to continue as a going concern if our business is to succeed.
The Independent Auditor's Report to Hudson Ventures Inc. audited
financial statements for the period ended July 31, 2003, indicates that
there are a number of factors that raise substantial doubt about our
ability to continue as a going concern. Such factors identified in the
report are: we are in a net loss position; we have not obtained
profitable operations; and we are dependent upon obtaining adequate
financing. If we are not able to continue as a going concern, it is
likely investors will lose their investments.
Risks Related To Our Market and Strategy
If we do not obtain clear title to the mining properties, our business
may fail.
While we have obtained geological reports with respect to the optioned
mineral properties, this should not be construed as a guarantee of
title. The properties may be subject to prior unregistered agreements
or transfers or native land claims, and title may be affected by
undetected defects and therefore we may loose our interest in our
optioned mineral properties. Our optioned mineral properties have not
been surveyed and therefore, the precise locations and areas of the
properties may be in doubt.
Risks Related To This Offering
Because our directors own 48.58% of our outstanding common stock, they
will make and control corporate decisions that may be disadvantageous to
other minority shareholders.
Mr. Dana Upton and Mr. Nikoloas Bekropoulos, both directors of our
company, own an aggregate of 48.58%of the outstanding shares of our
common stock. Accordingly, they will have a significant influence in
determining the outcome of all corporate transactions or other matters,
including mergers, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially
all of our assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in
control. The interests of Mr. Upton and Mr. Bekropoulos may differ from
the interests of the other stockholders and thus result in corporate
decisions that are disadvantageous to other shareholders.
Because our president has other business interests, he may not be able
or willing to devote a sufficient amount of time to our business
operations, causing our business to fail.
Our president, Mr. Upton is presently required to spend only 25% of his
business time on business management services for our company. While Mr.
Upton presently possesses adequate time to attend to our interests, it
is possible that the demands on Mr. Upton from his other obligations
could increase with the result that he would no longer be able to devote
sufficient time to the management of our business. In addition, Mr.
Upton may not possess sufficient time for our business if the demands of
managing our business increased substantially beyond current levels.
Because management has only limited experience in mineral exploration,
the business has a higher risk of failure.
Our management has only limited experience in mineral exploration, with
the exception of our president who has extensive experience in the
mining and exploration industry, but has not practiced in this industry
for almost ten years. As a result of this inexperience and hiatus from
the mining and exploration industry, there is a higher risk of our being
unable to complete our business plan in the exploration and exploitation
of our optioned mineral properties.
If a market for our common stock does not develop, shareholders may be
unable to sell their shares.
There is currently no market for our common stock and we can provide no
assurance that a market will develop. We currently plan to apply for
listing of our common stock on the NASD over the counter bulletin board
upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this
prospectus forms a part. However, we can provide investors with no
assurance that our shares will be traded on the bulletin board or, if
traded, that a public market will materialize. If no market is ever
developed for our shares, it will be difficult for shareholders to sell
their stock. In such a case, shareholders may find that they are unable
to achieve benefits from their investment.
If the selling shareholders sell a large number of shares all at once or
in blocks, the market price of our shares would most likely decline.
The selling shareholders are offering 1,587,000 shares of our common
stock through this prospectus. The selling shareholders are required to
sell their shares at $0.50 per share until the company's shares are
quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and thereafter they can sell at
prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. Our common
stock is presently not traded on any market or securities exchange, but
should a market develop, shares sold at a price below the current market
price at which the common stock is trading will cause that market price
to decline. Moreover, the offer or sale of a large numbers of shares at
any price may cause the market price to fall. The outstanding shares of
common stock covered by this prospectus represent approximately 51.60%
of the common shares outstanding as of the date of this prospectus.
Forward-Looking Statements
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks
and uncertainties. We use words such as anticipate, believe, plan,
expect, future, intend and similar expressions to identify such forward-
looking statements. You should not place too much reliance on these
forward-looking statements. Our actual results are most likely to
differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking
statements for many reasons, including the risks faced by us described
in the Risk Factors section and elsewhere in this prospectus.
Use of Proceeds
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock
offered through this prospectus by the selling shareholders.
Determination of Offering Price
The selling shareholders are required to sell our shares at $0.50 per
share until our shares are quoted on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board, and
thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices.
Dilution
The common stock to be sold by the selling shareholders is common stock
that is currently issued and outstanding. Accordingly, there will be no
dilution to our existing shareholders.
Selling Shareholders
The selling shareholders named in this prospectus are offering all of
the 1,587,000 shares of common stock offered through this prospectus.
These shares were acquired from us in a private placement that was
exempt from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act of
1933. None of our selling share holders are broker-dealers or have any
affiliation with any broker dealers.

(1) Based on 3,087,000 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding as of September 15, 2003.
(2) Assumes the sale of all shares registered by each selling
shareholder.
The named party beneficially owns and has sole voting and investment
power over all shares or rights to these shares. The numbers in this
table assume that none of the selling shareholders sells shares of
common stock not being offered in this prospectus or purchases
additional shares of common stock, and assumes that all shares offered
are sold.
Except as disclosed below, none of the selling shareholders:
(a) has had a material relationship with us other than as a
shareholder at any time within the past three years; or
(b) has ever been one of our officers or directors.
1. Sarah Upton is the daughter of Dana Upton, our President and a
director.
2. George Upton is the son of Dana Upton, our President and a
director.
Plan of Distribution
The selling shareholders may sell some or all of their common stock in
one or more transactions, including block transactions:
1. On such public markets or exchanges as the common stock may from
time to time be trading;
2. In privately negotiated transactions;
3. Through the writing of options on the common stock;
4. In short sales; or
5. In any combination of these methods of distribution.
The selling shareholders are required to sell our shares at $0.50 per
share until our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, and
thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices.
The shares may also be sold in compliance with the Securities and
Exchange Commission's Rule 144.
The selling shareholders may also sell their shares directly to market
makers acting as principals or brokers or dealers, who may act as agent
or acquire the common stock as a principal. Any broker or dealer
participating in such transactions as agent may receive a commission
from the selling shareholders, or, if they act as agent for the
purchaser of such common stock, from such purchaser. The selling
shareholders will likely pay the usual and customary brokerage fees for
such services. Brokers or dealers may agree with the selling
shareholders to sell a specified number of shares at a stipulated price
per share and, to the extent such broker or dealer is unable to do so
acting as agent for the selling shareholders, to purchase, as principal,
any unsold shares at the price required to fulfill the respective
broker's or dealer's commitment to the selling shareholders. Brokers or
dealers who acquire shares as principals may thereafter resell such
shares from time to time in transactions in a market or on an exchange,
in negotiated transactions or otherwise, at market prices prevailing at
the time of sale or at negotiated prices, and in connection with such re-
sales may pay or receive commissions to or from the purchasers of such
shares. These transactions may involve cross and block transactions that
may involve sales to and through other brokers or dealers. If
applicable, the selling shareholders may distribute shares to one or
more of their partners who are unaffiliated with us. Such partners may,
in turn, distribute such shares as described above. We can provide no
assurance that all or any of the common stock offered will be sold by
the selling shareholders.
If our selling shareholders enter into arrangements with brokers or
dealers, as described above, we are obligated to file a post-effective
amendment to this registration statement disclosing such arrangements,
including the names of any broker dealers acting as underwriters.
We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common
stock. The selling shareholders, however, will pay any commissions or
other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of
the common stock.
The selling shareholders must comply with the requirements of the
Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act in the offer and sale of
the common stock. In particular, during such times as the selling
shareholders may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the common
stock, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, they must
comply with applicable law and may, among other things:
1. Not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our
common stock;
2. Furnish each broker or dealer through which common stock may be
offered, such copies of this prospectus, as amended from time to time,
as may be required by such broker or dealer; and
3. Not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce
any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The Securities Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that regulate
broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks.
Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than
$5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities
exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price
and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities
is provided by the exchange or system).
A purchaser is purchasing penny stock which limits the ability to sell
the stock. The shares offered by this prospectus constitute penny stock
under the Securities and Exchange Act. The shares will remain penny
stock for the foreseeable future. The classification of penny stock
makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a
secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to
liquidate his or her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the
purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in Hudson
Ventures Inc. will be subject to rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the
Securities and Exchange Act. Rather than creating a need to comply with
those rules, some broker-dealers will refuse to attempt to sell penny
stock.
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in
a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a
standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which:
- contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the
market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;
- contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the
customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with
respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of the
Securities Act of 1934, as amended;
- contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market,
including "bid" and "ask" prices for penny stocks and the significance
of the spread between the bid and ask price;
- contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary
actions;
- defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the
conduct of trading penny stocks; and
- contains such other information and is in such form (including
language, type, size, and format) as the Securities and Exchange
Commission shall require by rule or regulation;
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction
in a penny stock, the customer:
- with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
- the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the
transaction;
- the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or
- other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of
the market for such stock; and
- monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny
stock held in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction
in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-
dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is
a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's
written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a
written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed
and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure
requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in
the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these
penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling
those securities.

Disclosure of Commission Position of Indemnification for Securities Act
Liabilities
Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Nevada
Revised Statutes and our Bylaws. We have been advised that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In
the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities is
asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in
connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the
opinion of our legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit the question of whether such indemnification is
against public policy to court of appropriate jurisdiction. We will
then be governed by the court's decision.
Organization within Last Five Years
We were incorporated on November 30, 2001 under the laws of the state of
Nevada.
We own two options to acquire a 90% interest in certain mineral claims
situated in the Yukon Territory, Canada pursuant to agreements dated
January 21, 2002 and January 22, 2002 respectively.
Mr. Dana Upton, our president, secretary, treasurer and a director, Mr.
Nikolaos Bekropoulos, and Mr. Philip Taneda have been our sole promoters
since our inception. Mr. Upton and Mr. Bekropoulos purchased 750,000
shares each of our common stock at a price of $0.001 US per share on
December 10, 2001. Mr. Upton and Mr. Bekropoulos paid a total purchase
price of $750.00 each for these shares.
Description Of Business
In General
We intend to commence operations as a exploration stage company. We
plan to ultimately engage in the acquisition and exploration of mineral
properties and exploit mineral deposits demonstrating economic
feasibility. We have entered into two mineral property option
agreements whereby we may acquire a 90% interest in a total of 13
mineral claims located in the Yukon Territory, Canada. These claims are
respectively referred to as the Wheaton River Property and the McConnell
River Property. In the Yukon Quartz Mining Act, a mineral claim is
defined as "a plot of ground staked out and acquired under the
provisions of the Act.."
Our mineral claims interests are described below under the headings
"Wheaton River Property Option Agreement" and "McConnell River Property
Option Agreement". Our plan of operation is to carry out exploration
work on the Wheaton River and McConnell River Properties in order to
ascertain whether these claims possess commercially exploitable
quantities of gold and/or silver. There can be no assurance that a
commercially exploitable mineral deposit, or reserve, exists on the
Wheaton River or McConnell River Properties until appropriate
exploratory work is done and an economic evaluation based on such work
concludes there is economic feasibility.
Economic evaluation to determine economic feasibility will only occur if
a defined body of ore is proven on one of our properties. If warranted,
we will hire an engineering firm specializing in the economic evaluation
process.
The first phases of the exploration programs on both the Wheaton River
Property and the McConnell River Property will be conducted by one or
more qualified geologists and their staff and will be paid according to
industry scale. At present, we have not engaged the services of any
geologist to perform the recommended exploration programs.
Wheaton River Property Option Agreement
We have obtained the option to acquire a 90% interest, subject to a 1%
net smelter returns royalty, in nine mineral claims situated in the
Yukon Territory, Canada. A net smelter returns royalty is the amount of
money that we would receive from the sale of minerals from the property
to a smelter, less refining charges, ore treatment charges, penalties
and transportation costs.
We refer to the nine mineral claims described above as the Wheaton River
Property. We acquired our interest in the Wheaton River Property
pursuant to an agreement dated January 21, 2002 between Glen Macdonald
and us. Glen Macdonald holds the exclusive right to explore and extract
minerals from the Wheaton River Property. We paid cash consideration to
Glen Macdonald for the grant of the option and geological report in the
amount of $7,500 on January 21, 2002. The option agreement was
negotiated as an arm's length transaction. It provides that we will have
exercised the option and thereby acquired an undivided 90% interest in
the Wheaton River Property when we have:
(A) paid Glen Macdonald $7,500(which we paid upon the execution of the
option agreement);
(B) incurred an aggregate of $195,000 of property exploration
expenditures on the Wheaton River Property within the following periods:
(1) $15,000 by December 31, 2003;
(2) a further $180,000 by December 31, 2004.
Under an amendment to the option agreement for the Wheaton River
Property, the terms of the original option agreement were amended by
deleting the reference to "December 31, 2002" in section 2.1(C) and
inserting "December 31, 2003" and further by deleting the reference to
"December 31, 2003" in section 2.1(D) and inserting "December 31, 2004";
thus we are required to incur Property Expenditures in the amount of
$15,000 US by December 31, 2003, and we are required to incur Property
Expenditures in the amount of an additional $180,000 US by December 31,
2004; "Property Expenditures" means all reasonable and necessary monies
expended on or in connection with exploration and development. To
date, $5,000 has been expended toward the Wheaton River Property.
In the event that we spend, in any of the above periods, less than the
required sum, we may, at our option, pay to Glen Macdonald the cash
difference between the amount actually spent and the required
exploration expenditure in full satisfaction of the exploration
expenditures to be incurred. In the event that we spend, in any period,
more than the required sum, then the excess will be carried forward and
applied to the required exploration expenditures to be incurred in
subsequent periods.
If we fail to make any required payment, or incur any required
exploration expenditures, our option will terminate and we will have no
further rights to the Wheaton River Property. Property exploration
expenditures include all costs of acquisition and maintenance of the
property, all expenditures on the exploration and development of the
property and all other costs and expenses of whatsoever kind or nature,
including those of a capital nature, incurred or chargeable with respect
to the exploration of the property. In addition, until we have secured
a 90% interest in the Wheaton River Property, we are obligated to
maintain in good standing the Wheaton River Property by:
(A) completing and filing assessment work or making of payments in
lieu thereof; and
(B) performing all other actions necessary to keep the Wheaton River
Property free and clear of all liens and other charges.
All payments necessary to maintain the Wheaton River Property in good
standing with the Yukon Territory for the next twelve-month period have
been made.
McConnell River Property Option Agreement
We have obtained the option to acquire a 90% interest, subject to a 1%
net smelter returns royalty, in four mineral claims situated in the
Watson Lake Mining District, Yukon Territory, Canada. We refer to these
mineral claims as the McConnell River Property. We acquired our
interest in the McConnell River Property pursuant to an agreement dated
January 22, 2002 between Glen Macdonald and us. Glen Macdonald holds the
exclusive right to explore and extract minerals from the McConnell River
Property. We paid cash consideration to Glen Macdonald for the grant of
the option and a geological report in the amount of $2,500 on January
22, 2002. The option agreement was negotiated as an arm's length
transaction. We are entitled to exercise the option to acquire the 90%
interest in the McConnell River Property when we have:
(A) paid Glen Macdonald $2,500(which we paid upon the execution of the
option agreement);
(B) incurred an aggregate of $25,000 of property exploration
expenditures on the McConnell River Property by June 30, 2003. Under an
amendment to the option agreement for the McConnell River Property, the
terms of the Option Agreement were amended by deleting the reference to
"June 30, 2003" in section 2.1(B) and inserting "June 30, 2004"; thus,
by June 30, 2004, we are required to incur Property Expenditures in the
amount of $25,000 US; "Property Expenditures" means all reasonable and
necessary monies expended on or in connection with exploration and
development).
To date, we have not incurred any exploration expenditures on the
McConnell River Property. In the event that we spend, in any of the
above periods, less than the required sum, we may, at our option, pay to
Glen Macdonald the difference between the amount actually spent and the
required exploration expenditure in full satisfaction of the exploration
expenditures to be incurred. In the event that we spend, in any period,
more than the required sum, then the excess will be carried forward and
applied to the required exploration expenditures to be incurred in
subsequent periods.
If we fail to make any required payment, or incur any required
exploration expenditures, our option will terminate and we will have no
further rights to the McConnell River Property. Property exploration
expenditures include all costs of acquisition and maintenance of the
property, all expenditures on the exploration and development of the
property and all other costs and expenses of whatsoever kind or nature,
including those of a capital nature, incurred or chargeable with respect
to the exploration of the property. In addition, until we have secured
a 90% interest in the McConnell River Property, we are obligated to
maintain in good standing the McConnell River Property by:
(A) completing and filing assessment work or making of payments in
lieu thereof;
(B) performing all other actions necessary to keep the McConnell River
Property free and clear of all liens and other charges.
All payments necessary to maintain the McConnell River Property in good
standing with the Yukon Territory the next twelve-month period have been
made.
Description of the Wheaton River Property
The Wheaton River Property comprises nine mineral claims located in the
Whitehorse Mining District of the Yukon Territory, Canada. Mr. Barclay
Macdonald staked and recorded the claims on behalf of Glen Macdonald on
February 19, 2000. Subject to our option, Mr. Macdonald owns a 100%
interest in the mineral rights respecting the claims. The claims expire
on August 19, 2003. The claims can be extended for one year by
conducting work on the claims equal to $100 per claim unit. Accordingly,
these claims will be extended for one year if we conduct $900 worth of
work on them by August 19, 2003. On July 23, 2003, the Minister for
Energy, Mines and Resources granted a one year relief from having to
perform assessment work, or make payment in Lieu, for these nine mineral
claims located in the Whitehorse Mining District of the Yukon Territory,
Canada. Accordingly, the expiration dates of these claims, if not
extended, is August 19, 2004.
Description of the McConnell River Property
The McConnell River Property comprises four mineral claims in the Watson
Lake Mining District of the Yukon Territory, Canada. Mr. Graham
Davidson staked and recorded these claims on behalf of Glen Macdonald on
December 17, 2000. Subject to our option, Mr. Macdonald owns a 100%
interest in the mineral rights respecting the claims. The claims expire
on June 17, 2003. The claims can be extended for one year by conducting
work on the claims equal to $100 per claim unit. Accordingly, these
claims will be extended for one year if we conduct $400 worth of work on
the claims on or before June 17, 2003. On July 23, 2003, the Minister
for Energy, Mines and Resources granted a one year relief from having to
perform assessment work, or make payment in Lieu, for these four mineral
claims located in the Whitehorse Mining District of the Yukon Territory,
Canada. Accordingly, the expiration dates of these claims, if not
extended, is June 17, 2004.
Location of the Wheaton River Property
The Wheaton River Property covers a broad northwest trending ridge south
of Pugh Peak (referred to locally as "Gold Hill"), extending from the
Wheaton River to Hodnett Lakes on NTS Map Sheet 105D-6. The property
lies 40 kilometers south of Whitehorse at geographical coordinates 60
16'N latitude, 135 06'W longitude .The Alaska and Klondike Highways, and
the Wheaton River-Mount Skukum all-season gravel road provide access to
the area. A four-wheel drive road follows Thompson Creek from the
Wheaton Road to the property.
Location of the McConnell River Property
The McConnell River Property is located 260 kilometers northeast of
Whitehorse, Yukon and 40 kilometers south of Ross River, Yukon at
latitude 61 35' N and longitude 132 35W. The claims straddle the
headwaters of Seagull Creek and McConnell River and are situated 30
kilometers east of the South Canol Road (Hwy 8). A 20 kilometer
four-wheel drive road originating from the South Canol Road provides
access to south Seagull Lake in the claims area. The main showing is
connected to the access road by a 10 kilometer four-wheel drive road.
Access during the 2000 exploration season was by all-terrain vehicle
initially, and then by road using 4x4 pickup trucks.
History of the Wheaton River Property
The Wheaton River/Lake Bennett district was first explored by
prospectors traveling along the major lakes and rivers of southwestern
Yukon in the early 1890's. The original claims recorded in the district
were those of prospectors Corwin and Rickman who, in 1893, located
antimony showings on Carbon Hill and gold-silver bearing quartz veins at
an undisclosed site. Antimony is a element that is often found with gold
in rocks. It is known as an indicator mineral.
The Klondike Gold Rush brought a great influx of people to the Yukon,
many of whom crossed Lake Bennett en route to Dawson City. These
individuals strayed into the Wheaton Valley, locating claims in the
Schnabel Creek drainage in 1903. More intensive exploration began in
1906 after the discovery of free gold and gold-silver tellurides on Gold
Hill by D. Hodnett and J. Stagar, and the rediscovery of the Corwin-
Rickman antimony-silver showings on Carbon and Chieftain Hills. Wagon
roads were built along the Wheaton River, Thompson Creek and Stevens
Creek to provide access to numerous adits and pits on Mount Anderson.
Limited mining of high grade gold and silver bearing ore occurred on the
Gold Reef vein at the northeastern end of Gold Hill and on the Becker-
Cochran (Whirlwind) property on the west face of Mount Anderson. Adits
and shafts on Mount Stevens and Wheaton Mountain were probably
exploratory; no record of ore production exists.
The Tally-Ho Mine on Tally-Ho Mountain was the most significant
operation during the early years of activity in the area. For example,
there is a record of a shipment in 1918, of 14 tons of hand-sorted ore
grading 2.35 oz/ton gold, 5.1 oz/ton silver and 7% lead which was
smelted at Tacoma.
On Montana Mountain, Colonel Conrad and associates developed several
gold and silver bearing quartz veins on the slope above Windy Arm,
Tagish Lake. A small mill on the shore of Windy Arm processed ore
extracted from the Venus, Montana and Big Thing quartz veins between
1906 and 1920.
From the mid-1920's to the late 1960's, little exploration of
significance took place. By 1970's, many of the old showings were
restaked as an increase in the value of base and precious metals
rekindled the interest of prospectors and mining companies in the area.
The Venus and Arctic mines operated on Montana Mountain between 1969-
1971. The Venus Mine was again rehabilitated during 1980-1981 and a new
mill was installed at the southern end of Windy Arm.
On the area covered by our claims, recent exploration started in 1984
to1985 when Wheaton River Joint Venture performed prospecting, grid
development, mapping, geochemical and geophysical surveys, and bulldozer
trenching and road building. Mineralized quartz veins and stockworks
were discovered in several locations along the five kilometer long
ridge. During 1987 and 1988 Ranger Pacific Minerals Ltd. and others
performed additional geochemical and geophysical survey work, and blast
trenching to better define target zones previously identified and to
further explore the property. During the period 1991 to 2000 exploration
work done by the owners has included bulldozer trenching, road
construction, geological mapping and prospecting. Exploration and
development costs incurred to date, on the property have a replacement
value exceeding US $400,000 with some US $200,000 being expended since
1996.
History of the McConnell River Property
The McConnell River district was first explored by placer gold miners
traveling along the major lakes and Rivers of southwestern Yukon in the
early 1890's, prior to the discovery of gold in the Klondike (1896).
The first major exploration of the district commenced following the
construction of the Canol Pipeline road as part of the World War II
effort. The region has been subject of several exploration booms since
1945 led by major mining companies including Noranda, RioTinto,
Anaconda, Utah Mines, Equity Silver, Hudson Bay Mining and others. As a
result of these regional exploration programs, several major mineral
deposits were defined and an effective database developed for the area.
The area now covered by the McConnell River claims has been included in
various projects at different times since massive sulphide material was
first located in 1962. The property or portions thereof have been
explored by:
- the Pelly Minerals Syndicate (Canex, KerrAddison, Noranda and
Homestake), which conducted hand trenching, mapping and a magnetic
survey in 1963;
- Mayo Silver Mines Limited and Canol Mines Limited which bulldozer
trenched and drilled 1452 meters (7 holes) in 1969;
- Seagull Joint Venture (Great Western Petroleum Corp. and Lornex
Mines Ltd.) which carried out mapping and geochemical sampling in 1981;
- Equity Silver Mines Ltd., and Fairfield Mines Ltd. performed
mapping, geochemical sampling, geophysical surveying (Magnetics, I.P.
and VLF) in 1987 and constructed 6.4 kilometers of roads and diamond
drilled 8 holes in 1988.
The claims were acquired by the present owners who conducted geophysical
(electromagnetic and magnetic) and geochemical surveys, constructed a
new access road and conducted bulldozer trenching from 1996 to 2000.
Geophysical surveying is the search for mineral deposits by measuring
the physical property of near-surface rocks, and looking for unusual
responses caused by the presence of mineralization. Electrical,
magnetic, gravitational, seismic and radioactive properties are the ones
most commonly measured. Electromagnetic surveys involve measuring the
strength of the earth's magnetic field. Variations in the magnetic
readings on a property may indicate the increased likelihood of precious
or base minerals in the area.
Geo-chemical surveys involve using chemical tests in the search for
mineral deposits by analyzing stream or lake sediments, natural waters,
soil, rocks or vegetation for unusually high traces of metals.
During the 2000 season a four-man exploration crew, based from Ross
River, conducted a soil geochemical survey and VLF-EM and magnetometer
geophysical survey's over part of the B1-4 claims. A VLF-EM survey
consists of two separate tests: a very low frequency survey that uses
radio waves to determine whether rocks on a mineral property conduct
electricity. Almost all of the precious and base metals that we seek
are above average conductors of electricity and will affect VLF
readings. The second test, the electromagnetic survey, is as described
above.
The surveys were undertaken to try to locate the source of gold-silver
bearing float mineralization located earlier and to extend known massive
sulphide mineralization. A bulldozer was utilized to rebuild part of a
4x4 access trail, and to trench sulphide showings. Geological mapping to
investigate new target areas was carried out. Geological mapping
involves plotting exploration results on a map in order to determine
possible mineralized areas.
Geological Report: Wheaton River Property
We have obtained a geological evaluation report on the Wheaton River
Property. The geological report was prepared by William Timmins of
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The geological report summarizes
the results of the prior exploration of the Wheaton River Property and
the geological formations on the property that were identified as a
result of this prior exploration.
In his geological report, Mr. Timmins recommends proceeding with a two-
phase, staged exploration program on the Wheaton River Property based on
his conclusion that prospecting, geophysical surveys and soil and rock
sampling are the exploration techniques that have been the most
successful in locating gold and silver mineralization in the region.
The initial phase of the recommended geological work program is
comprised of Geological review and Geophysical surveys of the Wheaton
River Property in order to make a preliminary assessment of
mineralization. A budget of $15,000 is estimated to be required to
support this initial geological work program. The components of the
budget for this initial geological work program are as follows:
PHASE 1
Geological Review $2,000
Sampling and Assaying $1,000
Consulting and Report Writing $2,000
Geophysical Surveys
-Induced Polarization
-Ground Magnetometer
-Max-Min (EM) $10,000
----------------------- ----------
-
Total $15,000
Mr. Timmins recommended that the second phase of the exploration program
consist of Diamond drilling, core logging and assay sampling. This
second phase of the geological work program is estimated to require a
budget of $180,000. Mr. Timmins concluded in his geological report that
the decision to proceed with each subsequent phase of the exploration
program should be contingent upon reasonable encouragement having been
gained from the results of the previous exploration program.
PHASE 2
Diamond Drilling 1400 Meters HQ @ $100/metre $140,000
Geological Mapping $ 10,000
Geophysical Surveying 30,000
Grand Total Phase 1 and Phase 2 $195,000
We have decided to accept the recommendation of the geological report
and proceed with this initial geological work program. We will make a
decision whether to proceed with phase two of the staged exploration
program upon completion of this initial geological work program and an
analysis of the results of this first phase of the exploration program.
The results of our Phase One exploration program will be considered
favorable if we discover mineralization on the property in sufficient
enough quantities that there is a potential for an economic deposit.
Our consulting geologist will make this determination based on the
results and the possibility of encountering additional mineralization.
Samples are now being obtained, recorded and scheduled to be sent for
assay in September 2003.
Should we determine at any time not to proceed to the next phase of the
geological work program, we will use our remaining operating capital, if
any, to obtain an option or options on other mineral claims. Funds will
then be used to conduct mineral exploration activities on those claims.
It is likely we will need further financing to pay for that exploration.
The two-phase program recommended in the report constitutes a
reconnaissance exploration program, which is only an initial phase of a
full exploration effort. If we complete both phases of the exploration
program and the results of these efforts are positive, we will still
have to undertake an extensive and additional exploration program which
might consist of further soil sampling, geophysical surveys, trenching
or drilling before we will be able to identify commercially-viable
reserves. The costs of these subsequent programs will be significantly
more than the costs set forth above for the initial two phase
exploration program.
Geological Report: McConnell River Property
We have obtained a geological evaluation report on the McConnell River
Property. The geological report was prepared by William Timmins of
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The geological report summarizes
the results of the prior exploration of the McConnell River Property and
the geological formations on the property that were identified as a
result of this prior exploration.
In his geological report, Mr. Timmins recommends proceeding with a two-
phase, staged exploration program on the McConnell River Property based
on his conclusion that prospecting, geophysical surveys and soil and
rock sampling are the exploration techniques that have been the most
successful in locating gold and silver mineralization in the region. The
initial phase of the recommended geological work program is a Geological
review including sampling and Geophysical Surveys of the McConnell River
Property in order to make a preliminary assessment of mineralization. A
budget of $25,000 is estimated to be required to support this initial
geological work program. The components of the budget for this initial
geological work program are as follows:
Phase 1
-Geological Review $2,000
-Sampling and Assaying $2,000
-Exploration Grid $4,000
-Geological Mapping $4,000
Geophysical Surveys
-Induced Polarization
-Ground Magnetometer
-Max-Min (EM) $10,000
-Consulting and Report Writing $3,000
----------------------- -----------
Total $25,000
Grid emplacement involves dividing a portion of the property being
explored into small sections. The geologist overseeing the exploration
program will record results based on the section from which a sample is
taken, or various surveys are performed.
Geological mapping and sampling will consist of a geologist and his
assistant gathering chip samples and grab samples from grid areas with
the most potential to host economically significant mineralization based
on their observation of any surface rocks. Grab samples are soil
samples or pieces of rock that appear to contain precious metals such as
gold and silver. All samples gathered are sent to a laboratory where
they are crushed and analysed for metal content.
We have decided to accept the recommendation of the geological report
and proceed with this initial geological work program. We will make a
decision whether to proceed with phase two of the staged exploration
program upon completion of this initial geological work program and an
analysis of the results of this first phase of the exploration program
by a qualified geologist.
Should we determine at any time not to proceed to the next phase of the
geological work program, we will use our remaining operating capital, if
any, to obtain an option or options on other mineral claims. Funds will
then be used to conduct mineral exploration activities on those claims.
It is likely we will need further financing to pay for that exploration.
If we complete both phases of the exploration program and the results of
these efforts are positive, we will still have to undertake an extensive
and additional exploration program which might consist of further soil
sampling, geophysical surveys, trenching or drilling before we will be
able to identify commercially-viable reserves. The costs of these
subsequent programs will be significantly more than the costs set forth
above for the initial two phase exploration program.
Mr. Timmins recommended that the second phase of the exploration program
consist of Diamond drilling, core logging and assay sampling Additional
geological mapping, and additional geophysical surveying This second
phase of the geological work program is estimated to require a budget of
$145,000.
PHASE 2
Diamond Drilling 1200 Meters HQ @ $100/metre $120,000
Geological Mapping $ 5,000
Geophysical Surveying $ 20,000
Grand Total Phase 1 and Phase 2 $170,000
(Phase II is contingent upon reasonable encouragement having been gained
from the results of the previous exploration program.)
Drilling involves extracting a long cylinder of rock from the ground to
determine amounts of metals contain in rock located at different depths.
Pieces of the rock obtained, known as drill core, are analysed for
mineral content.
Competition
The mineral industry is intensely competitive in all its phases. We
will compete with many companies possessing greater financial resources
and technical facilities than us for the acquisition of mineral
concessions, claims, leases and other mineral interests as well as for
the recruitment and retention of qualified employees. Our main
competition will come into affect when and if we reach the production
phase. This depends chiefly on how much it will cost to extract and
process the ore.
We must overcome significant barriers to enter into the business of
mineral exploration as a result of our limited operating history. There
can be no assurance that Hudson Ventures Inc. will be able to compete
effectively with current or future competitors or that the competitive
pressures faced by us will not have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and operating results.
Qualifications of William Timmins P.Eng.
Mr. Timmins is a consulting geologist, with offices at 405-455 Granville
St. Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Mr.Timmins has been practicing his profession for the past 38 years,
having been engaged in the evaluation, exploration and the development
of mineral properties through out Canada, the United States, Central and
South America, Australia and New Zealand.
Mr. Timmins has been a Professional Engineer registered with the
province of British Columbia since 1969.
Compliance with Government Regulation
We will commence business in the Yukon Territory when we commence the
first phase of our planned exploration program. We will be required to
register as an extra-provincial company under the Company Act prior to
conducting business in the Yukon Territory. The anticipated cost of the
extra-provincial registration is approximately $500. We have not as yet
registered as an extra-provincial company under the Company Act of the
Yukon Territory, but will do so sometime prior to commencing our
exploration program.
We will be required to conduct all mineral exploration activities in
accordance with the Yukon Courts Mining Act, an Act of Parliament of
1921. We will be required to obtain work permits from the Ministry of
Energy, Mines and Resources for any exploration work that results in a
physical disturbance to the land. We will be required to obtain
additional work permits if we proceed with the second phase of our
exploration program. There is no charge to obtain a work permit under
the Mining Act. We will incur the expense of our consulting geologist
to prepare the required submission to the Ministry of
Energy Mines and Resources. As the exploration program proceeds to the
trenching, drilling and bulk-sampling stages, we may be required to post
small bonds and file statements of work with the Ministry of Energy
Mines and Resources. We will be required by the Environmental
Regulations Act and Inland Water Act to undertake remediation work on
any work that results in physical disturbance to the land. The cost of
remediation work will vary according to the degree of physical
disturbance.
As mentioned above we will have to sustain the cost of reclamation and
environmental mediation for all exploration and other work undertaken.
The costs of complying with environmental regulations will likely be
less than $1,000 through phase two on each property. Because these costs
are nominal, We have not budgeted for regulatory compliance costs in the
proposed exploration programs recommended by the geological reports.
The amount of these costs is not known at this time as we do not know
the extent of the exploration program that will be undertaken beyond
completion of the recommended exploration program. Because there is
presently no information on the size, tenor, or quality of any resource
or reserve at this time, it is impossible to assess the impact of any
capital expenditures on earnings or our
competitive position.
An environmental review is not required under the Environmental
Regulations Act and Inland Water act to proceed with the recommended
exploration program on our mineral claims.
Employees
We have no employees as of the date of this prospectus other than our
three Directors. All directors are part time employees, with Mr.
Bekropoulos and Mr. Taneda contributing their time on an as needed basis
and Mr. Upton spending 25% of his time managing the company.
Research and Development Expenditures
We have not incurred any exploration expenditures to date. We have not
incurred any other research or development expenditures since our
incorporation.
Subsidiaries
We do not have any subsidiaries.
Patents and Trademarks
We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patents or
trademarks.
Plan of Operations
Our current business plan is to conduct exploration sufficient to
determine whether there is reason to begin extensive and costly
exploration programs on the Wheaton River and McConnell River
properties. This will constitute phase one of the exploration programs
recommended by the geological reports respecting these properties. We
anticipate that these programs will cost approximately $40,000.
Specifically, we anticipate spending the following over the next 12
months:
- $12,000 on professional fees, including professional fees payable
in connection with the filing of this registration statement;
- $15,000 for the first phase of the exploration program on the
Wheaton River Property, as recommended by Mr. William Timmins, the
author of the geological report on the Wheaton River Property; and
- $25,000 for the first phase of the exploration program on the
McConnell River Property, as recommended by Mr. William Timmins, the
author of the geological report on the McConnell River Property;
Total expenditures over the next 12 months are therefore expected to be
approximately $52,000.
Wheaton River Property
We are able to proceed with phase one of the exploration program on the
Wheaton River Property without additional financing. Completion of
these exploration expenditures will also enable us to meet the
exploration expenditure requirement under the option agreement for the
period through December 31, 2003.
Under an amendment to the option agreement for the Wheaton River
Property, the terms of the original option agreement were amended by
deleting the reference to "December 31, 2002" in section 2.1(C) and
inserting "December 31, 2003" and further by deleting the reference to
"December 31, 2003" in section 2.1(D) and inserting "December 31, 2004";
thus we are required to incur Property Expenditures in the amount of
$15,000 US by December 31, 2003, and we are required to incur Property
Expenditures in the amount of an additional $180,000 US by December 31,
2004; "Property Expenditures" means all reasonable and necessary monies
expended on or in connection with exploration and development. To
date, $5,000 has been expended toward the Wheaton River Property.
We plan on proceeding with phase one of the exploration program on the
Wheaton River Property, as soon as we can obtain the necessary permits
and clearances. We anticipate proceeding with phase two of the
exploration program in the spring of 2004. We will obtain a geological
report upon the completion of each phase summarizing the results of that
phase. The costs of the geological reports are included in the cost of
the exploration program. We have sufficient cash on hand in order to
complete the first phase work program on the property.
McConnell River Property
Our cash reserves are not sufficient to meet our obligation to incur an
additional $25,000 in exploration expenditures on the McConnell River
Property. Contingent upon us raising additional financing, we
anticipate proceeding with phase one exploration of the McConnell River
Property in late 2003. We anticipate proceeding with phase two of the
exploration program in the spring of 2004. We will obtain a geological
report upon the completion of each phase summarizing the results of that
phase. The costs of the geological reports are included in the cost of
the exploration program.
We will assess whether to proceed to phase two of the recommended
geological exploration program upon completion of an assessment of the
results of phase one of the geological exploration programs on each
property. Based on the results of the phase one program on each
property, we will likely proceed with a phase two program on the most
promising property first. We will require additional funding in the
event that we decide to proceed with phase two of either exploration
program.
The anticipated cost of phase two of the exploration program is $180,000
for the Wheaton River Property and $145,000 for the McConnell River
Property, which is well beyond our projected cash reserves. Unless we
raise and spend $180,000 on the Wheaton River Property by December 31,
2003, we will lose our interest in the property. Once we have incurred
exploration expenditures on the McConnell River Property, we will have
no further obligations pursuant to our option agreement. Under an
amendment to the option agreement for the McConnell River Property, the
terms of the Option Agreement were amended by deleting the reference to
"June 30, 2003" in section 2.1(B) and inserting "June 30, 2004"; thus,
by June 30, 2004, we are required to incur Property Expenditures in the
amount of $25,000 US; "Property Expenditures" means all reasonable and
necessary monies expended on or in connection with exploration and
development).
We anticipate that additional funding will be required in the form of
equity financing from the sale of our common stock. However, we cannot
provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise
sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund both phases
of the exploration program. We believe that debt financing will not be
an alternative for funding the complete exploration program. We do not
have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing.
Our cash reserves are not sufficient to meet our obligations for the
next twelve-month period. As a result, we will need to seek additional
funding in the near future. We currently do not have a specific plan of
how we will obtain such funding; however, we anticipate that additional
funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our
common stock. We may also seek to arrange a short-term loan through our
President, although no such arrangement has, as yet, been made. At this
time, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be
able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock or
through a loan from our President to meet our obligations over the next
twelve months. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future
equity financing.
If we do not complete the exploration expenditures required under the
option agreement for the Wheaton River and McConnell River properties,
then we will lose all our rights and interest in these properties. If we
do not secure additional financing to incur the required exploration
expenditures, we may consider bringing in a joint venture partner to
provide the required funding. We have not undertaken any efforts to
locate a joint venture partner. Should we locate a joint venture
partner, we will likely have to transfer part of our interest in the
Wheaton River Property or the McConnell River Property to the partner in
order to induce it to fund exploration. Terms of such a transfer and
the amount of funding the joint venture partner would provide would be
subject to negotiation.
We cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to
locate a joint venture partner who will assist us in funding the
exploration of the Wheaton River Property or the McConnell River
Property. If we are unable to maintain our property interests, we will
be forced to suspend our operations pending additional financing and our
ability to acquire interests in alternate mineral properties. We have
no specific plans in this regard.
Results of Operations for Period Ending July 31, 2003
We did not earn any revenues during the period ending July 31, 2003.
We are presently in the exploration stage of our business and we can
provide no assurance that we will discover commercially exploitable
levels of mineral deposits on our properties, or if such mineral
deposits are discovered, that we will enter into commercial production
of our mineral properties.
We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $38,295.00 for the
period from inception to July 31, 2003. These operating expenses were
comprised primarily of professional fees attributable to our corporate
organization, the preparation and filing of this registration statement,
administrative services and the acquisition of our options to acquire
the Wheaton River and McConnell River Properties.
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon
obtaining financing to pursue exploration activities. For these reasons
our auditors stated in their report that they have substantial doubt
Hudson Ventures Inc. will be able to continue as a going concern.
Description of Properties
Our executive offices are located at 444 East Columbia Street, New
Westminster, British Columbia. Mr. Dana Upton, our president, provides
this office space to us free of charge.
We own two options to acquire a 90% interest in the Wheaton River and
McConnell River Properties, as described in detail in this Prospectus
under the heading Wheaton River Property Option Agreement and McConnell
River Option Agreement. We do not own or lease any property other than
our options to acquire an interest in the Wheaton River Property and the
McConnell River Property.
The Wheaton River Property comprises nine claims in the Whitehorse
Mining District of the Yukon Territory, Canada. The McConnell River
Property comprises of four claims and Mr. Glen Macdonald is the
registered owner of both the claims. The claims expire on August 19,
2003 and June 17, 2003. On July 23, 2003, the Minister for Energy, Mines
and Resources granted a one year relief from having to perform
assessment work, or make payment in Lieu, for the above mineral claims
located in the Whitehorse Mining District of the Yukon Territory,
Canada. Accordingly, the expiration dates of these claims, if not
extended, is August 19, 2004 and June 17, 2004 respectively.
There are no mines or physical equipment or property located on the
mineral claims. There is no source of power to the mineral claims.

same house address as such person.
Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
No Public Market for Common Stock
There is presently no public market for our common stock. We anticipate
applying for trading of our common stock on the over the counter
bulletin board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of
which this prospectus forms a part. However, we can provide no
assurance that our shares will be traded on the bulletin board or, if
traded, that a public market will materialize.
Stockholders of Our Common Shares
As of the date of this registration statement, we had forty (40)
registered shareholders.
Rule 144 Shares
A total of 1,500,000 shares of our common stock will be available for
resale to the public after September 15, 2003 in accordance with the
volume and trading limitations of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended. In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a
person who has beneficially owned shares of a company's common stock for
at least one year is entitled to sell within any three month period a
number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:
1. 1% of the number of shares of the company's common stock then
outstanding which, in our case, will equal approximately 30,870 shares
of common stock as of the date of this prospectus; or
2. the average weekly trading volume of the company's common stock
during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form

Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not one of our company's affiliates
at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has

Registration Rights
We have not granted registration rights to the selling shareholders or

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws
that prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes,
however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving
effect to the distribution of the dividend:
1. we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the
usual course of business; or
2. our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities
plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of
shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving
the distribution.
We have not declared any dividends, and we do not plan to declare any
dividends in the foreseeable future.

(Stated in U.S. Dollars)
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Shareholders of
Hudson Ventures Inc.
(An exploration stage company)
We have audited the balance sheets of Hudson Ventures Inc. (an
exploration stage company) as at July 31, 2003 and 2002, and the
statements of loss, cash flows, and stockholders' deficiency for the
year ended July 31, 2003, and for the period from November 30, 2001
(date of inception) to July 31, 2002. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based
on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with United States generally
accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and
perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Company as at July 31,
2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the
year ended July 31, 2003, and for the period from November 30, 2001
(date of inception) to July 31, 2002, in conformity with United States
generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1(c)
to the financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $38,295
since inception, has not attained profitable operations and is dependent
upon obtaining adequate financing to fulfill its development activities.
These factors raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to
continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these
matters are also discussed in Note 1(c). These consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

HUDSON VENTURES INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 2003 AND 2002
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
a) Organization
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada, U.S.A., on
November 30, 2001.
b) Exploration Stage Activities
The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation
and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations.
It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of
mining properties. Upon location of a commercial minable reserve,
the Company expects to actively prepare the site for its extraction
and enter a development stage.
c)Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming
the Company will continue as a going concern.
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has
incurred a net loss of $38,295 for the period from November 30,
2001 (inception) to July 31, 2003, and has no sales. The future of
the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and
upon future profitable operations from the development of its
mineral properties. Management has plans to seek additional
capital through a private placement and public offering of its
common stock. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of
liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot
continue in existence.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States. Because a precise determination of many assets and
liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of
financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of
estimates which have been made using careful judgement.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 2003 AND 2002
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)
2.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
The financial statements have, in management's opinion, been properly
prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the
framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below:
a)Mineral Property Option Payments and Exploration Costs
The Company expenses all costs related to the maintenance and
exploration of mineral claims in which it has secured exploration
rights prior to establishment of proven and probable reserves. To
date, the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of
its exploration prospects, therefore, all costs are being expensed.
b)Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.
c)Income Taxes
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 109 - "Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS 109). This standard
requires the use of an asset and liability approach for financial
accounting, and reporting on income taxes. If it is more likely
than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not
realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.
d)Loss Per Share
Loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period plus common share equivalents,
such as options, warrants and certain convertible securities. This
method requires primary earnings per share to be computed as if the
common share equivalents were exercised at the beginning of the
period or at the date of issue, and as if the funds obtained
thereby were used to purchase common shares of the Company at its
average market value during the period.

2003, respectively, to acquire a 90% interest in a total of thirteen
mineral claims located in the Whitehorse and Watson Lake Mining
Districts in Yukon Territories, Canada.
In order to earn its interests, the Company made cash payments

totalling $220,000 as follows:
Exploration expenditures:
- $15,000 by December 31, 2003;
- A further $25,000 by June 30, 2004;
- A further $180,000 by December 31, 2004.
The properties are subject to a 1% net smelter return royalty.
4. CONTINGENCY

to option agreements. In order to retain its interest, the Company
must satisfy the terms of the option agreements described in Note 3.
5.RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

- $4,100) for management services provided by two directors of the
Company.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(a) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(b) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of this registration statement, or most recent
post-effective amendment, which, individually or in the aggregate,

shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities,
other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of our
directors, officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense of
any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by one of our directors,
officers, or controlling person sin connection with the securities being
registered, we will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has
been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and we will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.
