NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN

Maverick Minerals Corporation (“the Company”) was incorporated on August 27, 1998 under the Company Act of the State of Nevada, U.S.A. to pursue opportunities in the business of franchising fast food distributor systems. On May 23, 2001, the Company changed its direction to the energy and mineral resource fields, as an exploration stage company, and still is an exploration stage company.

On April 21, 2003 the Company closed a transaction, as set out in the Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement) with UCO Energy Corporation (“UCO”) to purchase the outstanding equity of UCO. To facilitate the transaction, the Company consolidated its share capital at a ratio of one for five. Subsequent to the share consolidation, the Company issued 37,580,400 common shares in exchange for all the issued and outstanding common shares of UCO. As a result of the transaction, the former shareholders of UCO held approximately 90% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company. The acquisition of UCO was recorded as a reverse acquisition for accounting purposes as a recapitalization of UCO. A net distribution of $944,889 was recoded in connection with the common stock of the Company for the acquisition of UCO in respect of the Company’s net liabilities at the acquisition date. The Company had minimal assets and had liabilities owing to suppliers as well as amounts owing under agreements with third parties as well as related parties and as there were no other business interests, the Company was acting as a public shell company. The financial statements are now presented as a continuation of UCO. UCO was in the business of pursuing opportunities in the coal mining industry. The Company has since disposed of its mining and oil and gas interests and is seeking new projects in these industries.

These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As at March 31, 2007, the Company has negative working capital of $1,190,829 (December 31, 2006 - $1,156,275), and had an accumulated deficit of $1,754,713 at March 31, 2007. The continuation of the Company is dependent upon obtaining a successful new exploration project, the continuing support of creditors and stockholders as well as achieving and maintaining a profitable level of operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management anticipates that it requires approximately $1,065,000 to December 31, 2008 to continue operations. To the extent that cash needs are not achieved from operating cash flow and existing cash on hand, the Company plans to raise necessary cash through equity issuances and/or debt financing. Amounts raised will be used to continue the development of the Company's explorations activities, and for other working capital purposes.

Management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in any of its plans. Although there are no assurances that management's plans will be realized, management believes that the Company will be able to continue operations in the future. 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.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2007, for US GAAP accounting purposes, the Company has adopted SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and No. 140” (“SFAS 155”). SFAS 155 allows any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” to be carried at fair value in its entirety, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. In addition, SFAS 155 requires that beneficial interests in securitized financial assets be analyzed to determine whether they are freestanding derivatives or contain an embedded derivative. There in no impact on the Company’s March 31, 2007 quarterly financial statements resulting from the adoption of SFAS 155.

The FASB has issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The provisions of FIN 48 are to be applied to all tax positions upon initial adoption, with the cumulative effect adjustment reported as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company did not have any unrecognized benefits at January 1, 2007. In addition, no adjustments were recognized for uncertain tax benefits during the year. Accordingly, there is no impact on the Company’s March 31, 2007 consolidated financial statements resulting from the adoption of FIN 48.

FIN 48 requires that interest expense and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits be recognized in the Statement of Loss and Comprehensive Loss. FIN 48 allows recognized interest and penalties to be classified as either income tax expense or another appropriate expense classification. If the Company recognizes interest expense or penalties on future unrecognized tax benefits, they will be classified as income tax expense.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of SFAS No. 157.

In February 2007, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities". FASB 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FASB 159 allows entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible financial assets and liabilities at fair value that are not otherwise required to be measured at fair value. If a company elects the fair value option for an eligible item, changes in that item's fair value in subsequent reporting periods must be recognized in current earnings. FASB 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to draw comparison between entities that elect different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of FASB 159.
