Risks Associated with Mining

All of our properties are in the exploration stage. There is no assurance that any of our properties contain any mineral resources in commercially exploitable quantities. If we do not discover any mineral resource in a commercially exploitable quantity, our business will fail and investors may lose all of their investment in our company.

Despite our acquisition of mineral claims and rights, we have not established that any of them contain any commercially exploitable mineral reserves, nor can there be any assurance that we will ever find commercially exploitable mineral reserves. The probability of an individual prospect ever having a commercially exploitable mineral reserve is extremely remote; in all probability our mineral resource properties do not contain any reserves and any funds that we spend on exploration will probably be lost. The search for valuable minerals as a business is extremely risky. We can provide investors with no assurance that any exploration on our properties will establish that commercially exploitable reserves of minerals exist on our mineral properties. Additional potential problems that may prevent us from discovering any reserves of minerals on our property include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to exploration and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. Most of these factors are beyond our control, and any of them could increase costs and make extraction of any identified mineral resource unprofitable.

If we are unable to establish the presence of commercially exploitable reserves of minerals on our property, our ability to fund future exploration activities will be impeded, we will not be able to operate profitably and investors may lose all of their investment in our company.

We face intense competition in the mineral exploration and exploitation industry and we compete with our competitors for financing, for new mineral resource properties and for qualified managerial and technical employees.

Our competition includes large established mining companies with substantial capabilities and with greater financial and technical resources than those available to us. As a result of this competition, we may have to compete for financing and be unable to acquire financing on terms we consider acceptable. This competition could adversely affect our ability to acquire suitable prospects for exploration in the future. We may also have to compete with the other mining companies in the recruitment and retention of qualified managerial and technical employees. If we are unable to successfully compete for financing or for qualified employees, our exploration programs may be slowed down or suspended. If we are unable to successfully compete for the acquisition of suitable prospects for exploration in the future, there can be no assurance that we will acquire any interest in additional mineral resource properties. The occurrence of any of these things may cause us to cease operations as a company.

Because of the inherent dangers involved in mineral exploration and exploitation, there is a risk that we may incur liability or damages as we conduct our business.

The search for valuable minerals involves numerous hazards. 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. At the present time we have no coverage to insure against these hazards. The payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on our financial position.

Our title to our resource properties may be challenged by third parties or the licenses that permit us to explore our properties may expire if we fail to timely renew them and pay the required fees.

We have investigated the status of our title to our mineral resource properties and we are satisfied that the title to these properties is properly registered in the name of our company, but we cannot guarantee that the rights to explore our properties will not be revoked or altered to our detriment. The ownership and validity of mining claims and concessions are often uncertain and may be contested. Should such a challenge to the boundaries or registration of ownership arise, the resolution of disputes or the process of clarifying the accuracy of our mining license registration could take substantial time and money. Further, the preservation of our title to our mineral properties requires that we continue to expend money or work the claims. If we fail to expend the necessary amount of money or if we fail to work our mineral claims, then our title to our mineral properties could expire or be forfeit.

Mineral prices are subject to dramatic and unpredictable fluctuations.

The market price of precious metals and other minerals is volatile and has fluctuated widely, particularly in recent years. The prices of various metals are affected by numerous factors beyond our control, including international economic and political trends, expectations of inflation, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rates and global or regional consumption patterns, speculative activities and increased production due to improved mining and production methods. The supply of and demand for metals are affected by various factors, including political events, economic conditions and production casts in major mineral producing regions. Variations in the market prices of metals may impact on our ability to raise funding to continue exploration of our properties. In addition, any significant fluctuations in metal prices will impact on our decision to accelerate or reduce our exploration activities. If the price of precious metals and other minerals should drop significantly, the cost of mineral extraction may be higher than is economically feasible. The marketability of minerals is also affected by numerous other factors beyond our control, including government regulations relating to royalties, allowable production and importing and exporting of minerals, the effect of which cannot be accurately predicted.

Mineral operations are subject to government regulations which could have the effect of reducing or preventing us from exploiting any possible mineral reserves on our properties.

Exploration activities are subject to national and local laws and regulations governing prospects, taxes, labor standards, occupational health, land use, environmental protection, mine safety and others which may in the future have a substantial adverse impact on our company’s prospects. In order to comply with applicable laws, we may be required to make capital expenditures until a particular problem is remedied. Existing and possible future environmental legislation, regulation and action could cause additional expense, capital expenditure, restriction and delay in the activities of our company, the extent of which cannot be reasonably predicted. If we violate any applicable law or regulation, we could be forced to stop work and we could be fined. If we are forced to suspend our activities or if we are required to pay a large fine for a violation of these applicable laws and regulations, our business could be adversely affected.

Our operations may be subject to environmental regulations which may result in the imposition of fines and penalties.

Our operations may be subject to environmental regulations promulgated by government agencies from time to time. Environmental legislation provides for restrictions and prohibitions on spills, releases or emissions of various substances produced in association with certain mining industry operations, such as seepage from tailings disposal areas, which would result in environmental pollution. A breach of such legislation may result in the imposition of fines and penalties. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which means stricter standards, and enforcement; fines and penalties for non-compliance are more stringent. Environmental assessments of proposed projects carry a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and directors, officers and employees. The cost of compliance with changes in governmental regulations has a potential to reduce the profitability of operations.

Risks Related To Our Company

The fact that we have not generated any operating revenues for the last five years raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We have not generated any operating revenues for the last five years and we will, in all likelihood, continue to incur operating expenses without revenues until our mining properties are fully developed and in commercial production. We had cash in the amount of $8,625 as of December 31, 2008. As a result, we need to generate significant revenues from our operations or obtain financing. We cannot assure that we will be able to successfully explore and develop our mining properties or assure that viable reserves exist on the properties for extraction. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. It is unlikely that we will generate any funds internally until we discover commercially viable quantities of precious metals and other minerals. If we are unable to generate revenue from our business in the next twelve months, we may be forced to delay, scale back, or eliminate our exploration activities. If any of these actions were to become necessary, we may not be able to continue to explore our properties or operate our business and if either of those events happen, then there is a substantial risk our business would fail.

9

We have a limited operating history on which to base an evaluation of our business and prospects.

As of the date of this Report, we have not yet located any mineral reserve. As a result, we have never had any revenues from our operations. In addition, we have no operating history related to the acquisition and exploration of our mineral properties. We have no way to evaluate the likelihood of whether our mineral properties contain any mineral reserve or, if they do that we will be able to build or operate a mine successfully. We anticipate that we will continue to incur operating costs without realizing any revenues during the period when we are exploring our properties. We expect to continue to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future. We recognize that if we are unable to generate significant revenues from mining operations and any dispositions of our properties, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations. At this early stage of our operation in this industry, we also expect to face the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies at the start up stage of their business development. We cannot be sure that we will be successful in addressing these risks and uncertainties and our failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. 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.

We have not generated any revenue from our business and we may need to raise additional funds in the near future. If we are not able to obtain future financing when required, we might be forced to discontinue our business.

Because we have not generated any revenue from our business and we cannot anticipate when we will be able to generate revenue from our business, we will need to raise additional funds for the further exploration and future development of our mining claims and to respond to unanticipated requirements or expenses. We do not currently have any arrangements for financing and we can provide no assurance to investors we will be able to find such financing if required. We have no assurance that additional funding will be available to us for further exploration and development of our projects or to fulfill our obligations under any applicable agreements. Although we have been successful in the past in obtaining financing through the sale of equity securities, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that the terms of such financing will be favorable. Failure to obtain such additional financing could result in a delay or indefinite postponement of further exploration and development of our projects with the possible loss of such properties.

Our Articles of Incorporation indemnify our officers and directors against all costs, charges and expenses incurred by them.

Our Articles of Incorporation contain provisions limiting the liability of our officers and directors for their acts, receipts, neglects or defaults and for any other loss, damage or expense incurred by our company which shall happen in the execution of the duties of such officers or directors, unless the officers or directors did not act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of our company. Such limitations on liability may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our officers and directors and may discourage or deter our shareholders from suing our officers and directors based upon breaches of their duties to our company, though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and our shareholders.

Risks Relating to our Securities

Investors’ interests in our company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share if we issue additional shares or raise funds through the sale of equity securities.

We are currently without a source of revenue and will most likely be required to issue additional shares to finance our operations and, depending on the outcome of our exploration programs, may issue additional shares to finance additional exploration programs of any or all of our projects or to acquire additional properties. If we are required to issue additional shares to raise financing, your interests in our company will be diluted and you may suffer dilution in your net book value per share depending on the price at which such securities are sold. If we issue any such share purchase warrants and share purchase options, and they are exercised, there will be a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting power of all other shareholders. The dilution may result in a decline in the market price of our common shares.

10

Investors’ interests in our company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share if we issue employee/director/consultant options.

We may in the future grant to some or all of our directors, officers, insiders, and key employees options to purchase our common shares as non-cash incentives to those persons. Such options may be granted at exercise prices equal to market prices, or at such other price as may be permitted under the policies of any stock exchange upon which our securities are traded (currently, our common shares are listed for trading on the OTC BB), when the public market is depressed. The issuance of additional shares will cause our existing shareholders to experience dilution of their ownership interests.

We Do Not Plan to Pay any Dividends in the Foreseeable Future

The Company has never paid a dividend and it is unlikely that the Company will declare or pay a dividend until warranted based on the factors outlined below. The declaration, amount and date of distribution of any dividends in the future will be decided by the Board of Directors from time-to-time, based upon, and subject to, the Company’s earnings, financial requirements and other conditions prevailing at the time.

In the Event that Key Employees Leave the Company, the Company Would Be Harmed Since We are Heavily Dependent Upon Them for All Aspects of Our Activities

The Company is heavily dependent on key employees and contractors, and on our sole officer and director, the loss of any of whom could have, in the short-term, any negative impact on our ability to conduct our activities and could cause a decline in profitability of our properties or additional costs from a delay in development or exploration of properties. The Company has consulting agreements with key employees and contractors, and an employment agreement with our sole officer and director.

We face exposure to fluctuations in the price of our common stock due to the very limited cash resources we have.

The Company has very limited resources to pay its professionals. If we are unable to pay professionals in order to perform various professional services for the company, it may be difficult, if not impossible, for the Company to maintain its reporting status under the Exchange Act. If the Company felt that it was likely that it would not be able to maintain its reporting status, it would make a disclosure by filing a Form 6-K with the SEC. In any case, if the Company was not able to maintain its reporting status, it would become “delisted” and this would potentially cause an investor or an existing shareholder to lose all or part of his investment.

The Company does not anticipate any contingency upon which it would voluntarily cease filing reports with the SEC, even though it may cease to be required to do so.

It is in the compelling interest of the Company to report its affairs quarterly, annually and currently, as the case may be, generally to provide accessible public information to interested parties, and also specifically to maintain its qualification for the OTCBB, if and when the Registrant's intended application for submission is effective.

Success of the Company will depend on the Developments of an Active Trading Market.

While the Company's common shares (“Common Shares”) are included on NASD Over the Counter Bulletin Board, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for the Common Shares will develop. In the absence of such a market, investors may be unable to readily liquidate their investment in the Common Shares. The market for equity securities in general has been volatile and the trading price of the Common Shares could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to general market trends, changes in general conditions in the economy, the financial markets and other factors that may be unrelated to the Company's performance.

11

Low-Priced Stocks Subject to Greater Disclosure Requirements.

The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules (“Penny Stock Rules”) that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. The Common Shares of the Company may fall within the Commission's definition of a penny stock. The closing price of the Company's shares on July 23, 2009 was $0.07. Penny stocks generally are 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 prices and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system). The Penny Stock Rules require a broker-dealer, prior to effecting a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the Penny Stock Rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such rules, the broker-dealer must receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that is subject to the Penny Stock Rules. At any time when the Company's common stock is subject to the Penny Stock Rules, shareholders may find it more difficult to sell their shares.

Information on the Company

A.

History and Development of the Company

Historical Overview

The Company was incorporated as a federal company pursuant to the laws of Canada under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the “Act”) on October 30, 1997, under the name 3430502 Canada Ltd. Since that time, the Company has changed its name four times: (1) On or about December 4, 1997, the Company changed its name to Four Crown Foods Inc.; (2) On or about June 5, 2000, the Company changed its name to Universal Domains Incorporated; (3) On or about September 20, 2004, the Company changed its name to Pure Capital Incorporated; and (4) On or about February 6, 2007, the Company changed its name to Tombstone Exploration Corporation.

Prior to current operations, the Company most recently operated as an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, development, production, and acquisition of crude oil and natural gas. Although the Company acquired a 75% working interest in the Puckett Field located in the State of Mississippi, and became partnered with Hawkeye Drilling Co. in March 2003, this relationship was abandoned in 2003 as the drilling was unsuccessful. Then, in January 2004, Hawkeye Drilling obtained a Court Order for the return of the Company’s interest in the Puckett Field. Subsequently, and upon information and belief, Hawkeye Drilling has sold its interest in the Puckett Field to a third-party.

Until March 2003, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary VCL Communications Corp. (“VCL”), was in the business of providing teleconferencing services to clients in North America. In March 2003, the Company decided to discontinue providing teleconferencing services in order to focus on the oil and gas business.

Prior to the Company’s central operation model shifting to the oil and gas industry, the Company was involved in the food and beverage retail business (the “Food Retail Business”). Prior to December 31, 2001 the Company discontinued its Food Retail Business operations. The Company commenced a domain registration business upon the acquisition on April 12, 2000 of the license rights to a domain registration agreement for the “.cc” Internet registration domain. The Company withdrew from the domain registration business during fiscal 2001. In October, 2001 the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of VCL, a teleconferencing services company targeting clients throughout North America.

12

In November 2003, the Company ceased all operations. From that time until November 1, 2006, the Company’s goals were to continue to reduce the liabilities of the Company in an effort to obtain additional financing and explore the possibilities of starting a new operating business, and/or merge with or become acquired by another company or entity.

On November 1, 2006, the Company began negotiations with Redhawk for the acquisition of several mining and mineral right claims located in the State of Arizona. On November 27, 2006, the Company and Redhawk, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, finalized the transaction, which closed on December 4, 2006.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, at closing, the Company issued to Redhawk Eight Million (8,000,000) restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock valued at Ten Cents ($0.10) per share (“Acquisition Shares”) and cash in the amount of One Hundred Thousand ($100,000) dollars (“Acquisition Cash”).

In exchange for the aforementioned Acquisition Shares and Acquisition Cash, the Company received from Redhawk full rights and title to certain mining and exploration claims (the “Mining Claims”) located in the State of Arizona, along with other equipment and property.

A more detailed discussion of the Company’s business and properties are set forth below, and incorporated herein by reference.

Tombstone Exploration holds 100% of the mineral rights to approximately 13,500 acres in the historical western Tombstone silver mining district. The center of the property is Section 16, 2 miles southwest of the Tombstone town, Cochise County, Arizona. Section 16 comprises many of the historical silver producers in the district including: San Pedro group (Fox claims), State of Maine, Merrimac, Free Coinage, Chance, Bonanza, Santa Ana, Solstice, Annex 40 and 41 (Ace-in-the-Hole), Black Horse, the Joseph group, Mamie, Sailor, Randolph, and Groundhog. The total strike length extension of these structures is estimated to be in excess of 7,000 meters.

Mineralized structures are deep seated fracture/fault zones are considered to be the mineralizing conduits in the district. They trend north-northeast and dip steeply to west. Other than the fracture filling ore type, manto-type (lensoid, strata-bound) mineralization has been also recognized in the district. The main host rocks are quartzites, and limestones of the Bisbee Group intruded by the Uncle Sam porphyry complex, also a host rock. In general, the fracture filling mineralized structures are mostly associated with the quartzites and Uncle Sam rock units, while the manto-type mineralized structures are predominantly associated with limestones and limey siltstones.

These ore deposits are of polymetallic character, and are predominantly silver-rich, with significant mineralization of gold, lead, zinc and copper. Manganese oxides which are ore carriers and mineral hosts are observed at the upper sectors of the structures.

Two drilling programs have been completed during the field sessions of 2007 and 2008 consisting of 15 drill holes totaling 3,051 m (10,160 ft). 12 out of 15 drill holes were designed to test the central zone of the Bonanza structure. Three drill holes were located at Ace-in-the Hole and Black Horse area to test these structures. The 2007 drilling program was done by reverse circulation and the 2008 drilling was done by core diamond drilling, using HQ diameter and triple tube technology for better recovery.

The primary focus of operations will be to generate revenue from the production of silver, gold and manganese as well as additional base minerals such as copper, lead and zinc. Through expansion, we will acquire new properties, as well as integrate the extraction of precious metals, rare earth and other minerals. The goal is to produce metals and minerals at or below standard industry costs. The historical nature of mining activities of our present holdings and the acceptance of governmental agencies will enable easier startup here than in non-mining oriented locations.

The significant potential for silver recovery will likely draw considerable interest from major silver producing companies, as well as precious metals mining concerns. With the variety of the metals projected for extraction, the Company expects to attract major attention and support from the state, local and federal governments

13

Following identification of suitable areas during our drilling programs, which we anticipate will continue in the future, the Company may initiate mineral extraction if sufficient funding and permitting are secured. These efforts will provide an operating financial base from which to expand. Continuing geological research, testing and drilling is planned based on the initial geological report. This will assist in the identification of key target areas, as well as establish reserve categories.

Discussions with precious metal processing and consulting companies to assist in the design of the overall operation of the Tombstone property have been initiated. Relationships have already been established with refineries, assay companies and engineering firms supporting worldwide mineral processing operations.

To the best of our knowledge, we now control more mining acreage in the mineral rich Tombstone district than any other company. Management has structured and positioned the Company to capitalize on today's increasing demand and prices for precious metals and base metals such as copper, lead and zinc. Accordingly, we have acquired the mineral rights to approximately 13,500 acres of historical mining land in the areas around Tombstone, Arizona. The Company is the largest land holder in the Tombstone mining district. Through expansion, Tombstone Exploration will acquire new properties, as well as integrate the extraction of precious and base metals. The goal is to produce metals and minerals below standard industry costs.

B.

Business Overview

We are in the mineral resource business. This business generally consists of three stages: exploration, development and production. We are a mineral resource company in the exploration stage because we have not yet found mineral resources in commercially exploitable quantities, and are engaged in exploring land in an effort to discover them. Mineral resource companies that have located a mineral resource in commercially exploitable quantities and are preparing to extract that resource are in the development stage, while those engaged in the extraction of a known mineral resource are in the production stage.

Mineral resource exploration can consist of several stages. The earliest stage usually consists of the identification of a potential prospect through either the discovery of a mineralized showing on that property or as the result of a property being in proximity to another property on which exploitable resources have been identified, whether or not they are or have in the past been extracted.

After the identification of a property as a potential prospect, the next stage would usually be the acquisition of a right to explore the area for mineral resources. This can consist of the outright acquisition of the land or the acquisition of specific, but limited, rights to the land (e.g., a license, lease or concession). After acquisition, exploration would probably begin with a surface examination by a prospector or professional geologist with the aim of identifying areas of potential mineralization, followed by detailed geological sampling and mapping of this showing with possible geophysical and geochemical grid surveys to establish whether a known trend of mineralization continues underground, possibly trenching in these covered areas to allow sampling of the underlying rock. Exploration also commonly includes systematic regularly spaced drilling in order to determine the extent and grade of the mineralized system at depth and over a given area, as well as gaining underground access by ramping or shafting in order to obtain bulk samples that would allow one to determine the ability to recover various commodities from the rock. If minerals are found, exploration might culminate in a feasibility study to ascertain if the mining of the minerals would be economic. A feasibility study is a study that reaches a conclusion with respect to the economics of bringing a mineral resource to the production stage.

We will focus on the exploration and acquisition of mineral properties in the United States, and specifically, hold a majority of our interests in the State of Arizona. There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of our properties and further exploration work may be required before a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility is determined.

14

For further information, see Item 3D – Risk Factors.

Though we have conducted drilling at our Tombstone property in 2007 and 2008, we have not identified the existence of any commercially viable mineral deposits at the Tombstone Property. We are in the process of conducting prospecting and sampling as necessary. We anticipate a Phase 2 drilling program to commence sometime in either September or October 2009, subject to obtaining sufficient financing.

2007 Drilling Program

In early March 2007, we commenced our reverse circulation drill program. On or about March 21, 2007, we completed the first reverse circulation drill hole (RT-1) to a depth of 500 feet and intercepted ore grade silver/gold mineralization when it hit its target at the Tombstone property.

Thirty-five feet averaging 0.0108 opt Au and 2.43 opt Ag was drilled. The RT-1 intercept occurred from 415 feet to 450 feet in a vertical hole. Included within the mineralized zone are two consecutive five foot intervals (from 430-435 and 435-440 feet) that assayed 0.008 opt Au, 6.16 opt Ag and 0.046 Au, 3.30 opt Ag, respectively. This zone was identified as the Bonanza Vein structure and the ore zone was penetrated approximately 185 feet below the lowest level of the Bonanza Mine.

The 2007 Drill Program consisted of distinct drill sites that were designed to intercept extensions of the State of Maine mine, Merrimac zone, Bonanza-Solstice mines and the Ace-in-the-Hole-Black Horse mine sub-parallel trends. These zones are north-easterly trending. Core holes were HQ size and were drilled using triple tube core technology to assure that the most complete core recovery was achieved. Drill hole spacing was approximately 100 meters between drill hole sites. The four mineralized zones were tested over strike lengths ranging from 200 meters to 500 meters. All available historical data indicates that there were no historical mining activities conducted below the water level in the areas covered by the 2007 Drill Program.

Following the 2007 Drill Program, and in January 2008, the Company received assay results for 115 samples taken from its Tombstone Project property within T20S R22E Sections 16 and 17.

It was determined that more detailed sampling would be required to further assess the Santa Ana Mine workings. The Joseph Vein is a steeply dipping mineralized shear zone in the Bisbee Group rocks where it is exposed in the Santa Ana mine.

2008 Drill Program – Phase 1

On or about April 1, 2009, the Company began to conduct geological mapping and sampling that, combined with historical data, provided the basis for 2008 core drilling program.

On May 29, 2008, the Company engaged Layne Christensen Company (NASDAQ: LAYN) of Mission Woods, Kansas to conduct its 2008 drilling program, which commenced on June 17, 2008 and continued through September 2008.

On October 9, 2008, the Company announced the completion of its 2008 Drill Program which consisted of 2,593 feet of core drilling at its silver project in Tombstone. Six diamond drill holes (DDH) were drilled, TEMC 101,102,103,104,105 and 106, to test the extension of the mineralization zones of the Bonanza and Santa Ana structures, both of which possess historical data from within the mining district. Both structures exhibit open ends at the south and north, as well down dip.

Holes were drilled as HQ diameter and using triple-tube technology, yielding a recovery over 90% in most instances. RQD is estimated at 45%, average.

15

Five out of the six DD holes intersected the projected targets at different levels at the south, central and north of the structures, while DDH TEMC 101 provided a great deal of information regarding the Bonanza structure which seems to be bent in an opposite direction in depth. This particular piece of information has been physically confirmed in the Bonanza mine workings where the structure becoming sub-vertical at 200 feet approximately, and then switches the dip to east, rather than dipping west as observed at the upper sectors of the shafts.

The 2008 Drill Program revealed a new mineralized structural corridor between the State of Maine and Merrimac veins at the southern portion of the property. The corridor extends for over one mile, and locally exhibits 80-100' width with some feldspar porphyry dikes in between.

The results of this Phase 1 drill program have resulted in identifying a very mineral rich zone that Tombstone management believes is a significant precious metals and base metals discovery. The Company intends an aggressive exploration and comprehensive drilling program, which is planned for 2009.

Following the completion of the Phase 1 Drill Program in 2008, the Company, on April 17, 2009, received assay results from rock chip samples on its Tombstone properties.

Outcrop samples taken from horizontal projections of mineralized structures away from historical mine workings indicate continuity of silver, gold, lead, zinc, copper and manganese enrichment along these structural corridors through the property package. Samples from two structures were collected and taken to Copper States Analytical Lab in Prescott, AZ for gold, silver, lead, zinc, copper and manganese assays.

National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report

In May 2008, we filed our initial National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report. SRK Consulting of Tucson, Arizona has completed the NI 43-101 technical report. SRK is an independent, international consulting group, employing leading specialists in environmental science and mineral engineering. Its seamless integration of services, and global base, has made the company a significant international practice in due diligence, feasibility studies and confidential internal reviews. SRK's global experience and reputation for excellence is widely recognized among the major financial institutions and are repeatedly called upon to advise on and evaluate projects for all types of market transactions. Formed in 1974, SRK employs more than 600 professionals internationally in 31 permanent offices on 6 continents.

National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) and administered by the provincial securities commissions that govern how issuers disclose scientific and technical information about their mineral projects to the public. It covers oral statements as well as written documents and websites. It requires that all disclosure be based on advice by a “qualified person” and in some circumstances that the person be independent of the issuer and the property.

SRK Consulting made the following recommendations:

It is strongly recommended that an extended program of vertical and inclined core drilling be conducted at the Tombstone Property. Drilling would be aimed at determining mineralization grades and fissure vein characteristics such as horizontal and vertical extent, relationships to other veins, widths and depths below the water table. It would also provide geotechnical information, samples for bulk density measurements, and samples for preliminary metallurgical testing. It is difficult to say how many drill holes would be indicated. A program is suggested that would include a minimum of five 1000-foot core holes along existing mineralized structural zones to define depth potential below the water table. A program of twenty 500-ft drill holes (RC) can be used to explore along strike of mapped extensions to known structures.

1.

Conduct additional inclined and vertical drilling for the following purposes:

·

Evaluate the width of structural targets such as dikes, fissures, and veins;

·

Confirm silver mineralization across the targets;

·

Evaluate potential mineralization below the water table in the target areas;

·

Provide fresh samples for mineralogical and metallurgical testing; and,

16

·

Conduct in-fill and/or extension drilling where necessary.

Any additional drilling should be by the core drilling methods with HQ size core. The drilling should include some oriented drillcore, targeting the northeast-trending fissures, to intercept the greatest possible thickness and depth of mineralized rock. Additional drilling should be directed toward evaluating mineralization below the water table.

The recommended drilling will provide additional structural and assay information to allow for possible delineation of mineralized zones, and will provide additional geotechnical information. Closer spaced drillhole definition of higher grade and thicker mineralization should be the goal.

2.

Conduct down-hole surveys to measure drill-hole deviation, particularly for drill holes in excess of 100 m.

3.

Devise a suitable numerical drill log that will allow inclusion of detailed lithology, alteration and mineralization information, in numeric form, in addition to assay data, to allow for digital drill logs.

4.

Convert historical hard copy drill logs to digital format logs.

Revenues

To date we have not generated any revenues from the Tombstone Property.

Principal Market

We do not currently have any market, as we have not yet identified any mineral resource on the Tombstone Property that is of a commercially exploitable quantity. If we succeed in identifying a mineral resource in commercially exploitable quantities, our principal markets should consist of metals refineries and base metal traders and dealers.

Seasonality of our Business

Our mineral exploration activities are not subject to extreme seasonal variation since the Tombstone Property is located in Arizona. Field work, however, is best carried out in temperatures averaging 10 to 15 degrees Celsius. Our other operations, such as metallurgical review and analysis of geochemical survey results, can be carried out all year round.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

The Tombstone Property is easily accessible by major highways and roads. The closest suitable source of power for development is the transmission line between Tombstone and Sierra Vista, which runs parallel to the highway and through the property. If a mineral resource is found on our Tombstone Property, power generation would be required.

Patents and Licenses; Industrial, Commercial and Financial Contracts; and New Manufacturing Processes

In conducting our business operations, we are not dependent on any patented or license processes, technology, industrial, commercial or financial contract or new manufacturing processes.

Competitive Conditions

We compete with other mining companies, some of which have greater financial resources and technical facilities, for the acquisition of mineral interests, as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees.

17

The mineral property exploration business, in general, is intensively competitive and there is not any assurance that even if commercial quantities of ore are discovered, a ready market will exist for sale of same. Numerous factors beyond our control may affect the marketability of any substances discovered. These factors include market fluctuations; the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets and processing equipment; and government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of mineral and environmental protection. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may make it difficult for us to receive an adequate return on investment.

We compete with many companies possessing greater financial resources and technical facilities for the acquisition of mineral concessions, claims, leases and other mineral interests as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees. Low metal prices and an instable market, even among competition, leads us to assume that we will not face any difficulties retaining geologists or other consultants compared to our competition.

Competition in the usual context, and as experienced by manufacturers of automobiles, durable goods, clothing, electronics, and the providers of most services simply is not a factor in the minerals market. The demand for minerals always exceeds supply, and historically prices have consistently risen. The only major factor for competition is the cost of production.

Although, competition over cost of production exists, there is little competition in the marketplace for the company’s products. The market absorbs all precious metals and most base metals produced at prevailing prices. Larger producers can hedge future production to enable easier management of expected revenue in times of price fluctuation, whereas junior companies usually sell at market prices. In today’s market larger producers have pulled back from hedging.

The primary competition in the precious metals market is for talent in the workforce. As prices have risen many new companies have started operations or are in the midst of exploration and proving of reserves. It is in this area that competition exists for experienced geologists, project managers, and mining executives. In many areas there also is a shortage of mining labor.

Tombstone Exploration believes it can overcome this competition due to its location in a historical mining area, year-round working conditions and nearness to major population centers of Tucson and Phoenix, AZ. Additionally, experienced mining professionals have assisted in developing the corporation and have many contacts in the industry.

In the local area of Tombstone, there is essentially no competition. Several small companies and a junior Canadian firm (Southern Silver Exploration) hold small parcels of land. To our knowledge, we are the largest individual holder of land. Pure Capital controls land from approximately the city limits to the protected San Pedro River Basin area.

Environmental Regulations

Mineral property exploration in Arizona is governed by the State of Arizona Office of Mine Inspector as well as Title 30 of the Code of Federal Regulations, both seek to regulate and promote the development of safe and environmentally conscious mining operations.

Governmental Regulations

Mining operations are subject to a wide range of government regulations such as restrictions on production, price controls, tax increases, expropriation of property, environmental protection, protection of agricultural territory or changes in conditions under which minerals may be marketed. Mining operations may also be affected by claims of native peoples, any of which could have the effect of reducing or preventing us from exploiting any of our properties.

We will be required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of governmental authorities and agencies applicable to the exploration of minerals in the State of Arizona and in the United States generally.

18

Our mineral claims entitle our company to continue exploration activities on our properties, subject to our compliance with various United States federal and state laws governing land use, the protection of the environment and related matters.

C.

Organizational Structure

We have a wholly owned subsidiary, Tombstone Exploration and Mining Corporation (“TEMC”), a Nevada corporation that is qualified to do business in the State of Arizona. All of our operations are conducted through TEMC.

D.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Our principal executive office is located at 1515 Red Top Rd. P.O. Box 1280, Tombstone, AZ. 85638. We operate out of a mobile facility that is approximately 1,200 square feet and accommodates all operating needs. The facility is equipped with five (5) offices, a reception area and a conference room. We own the mobile facility, which is adequate for our current operations. Additionally, we share this space with our wholly owned subsidiary, TEMC. Should we require additional space, we believe that such space can be secured on commercially reasonable terms by securing other mobile facilities.

This space accommodates all of our executive and administrative offices. We believe that this existing space is adequate for our current needs. Should we require additional space, we believe that such space can be secured on commercially reasonable terms.

Our property consists of mineral rights to approximately 13,500 acres of historical mining land southwest, south and southeast of Tombstone, Arizona. We control one of the largest mining properties in Arizona.

The Tombstone Project is located approximately 65 miles southeast of Tucson, AZ and is easily accessible by major highways and roads. An overview map is shown below, followed by a detailed look at the magnitude of the property size compared to the city of Tombstone.

The Tombstone Project consists of the following claims:

Arizona Mining Claims Township 20 S Range 22E:

AMC364521 - AMC364556: Silver Bullet #1 thru #36 – Sec. 9

AMC364557 – AMC364572: Silver Bullet #37 thru #52 – Sec. 10

AMC364573 – AMC364576: Silver Bullet Extension #53 thru #56 – Sec. 15

On February 27, 2007, the Company closed a transaction pursuant to which it acquired various mineral rights claims from Donald Heck as Trustee of the Tombstone Silver Mines Secured Creditors Trust. The Purchase Agreement is incorporated by reference herein.

The following is a summary of the claims acquired from Donald Heck:

20

In April 2007, the Company was granted permits giving the Company the exclusive right to explore 3,070 acres of prospective Arizona State lands (the ``Parcels''), which were approved by the Arizona State Lands Department. Upon exploration and verification of mineable minerals and base metals, the Company will then immediately seek to obtain state mineral leases on these Parcels. The Parcels include a 100 acre area that was evaluated by Interstat Resources, Inc. for its open pit silver potential in 1985. The Interstat report assay records show values ranging up to 220.07 opt Ag and 0.980 opt Au were encountered across narrow structures. In 1986, the state issued a recommendation that Interstat be granted a mineral lease to mine a 50,000 ton deposit of +1.5 opt Ag (Au values were not noted) by open pit methods from surface to 100 feet in depth. Much of this resource appears to be in the mineralized hangwall of the State of Maine mine.

On December 11, 2007, the Company applied for the additional exploration permits from the State of Arizona Land Department. The application encompassed approximately 2,730 acres in the Tombstone Mining District, principally the Bisbee Group sediments and metasediments that have been highly productive in both the Tombstone Mining District and in the Warren (Bisbee) Mining District, Arizona. This application was conditionally approved in February 2008.

The Company has continued to submit all necessary documentation to renew BLM claims, leases and mineral rights to property totaling approximately 13,500 acres.

Industry of Interest

The precious metals and base metals industry produces over $100B in metal production per year. The industry is essentially two sectors: the major producers and the junior exploration and mining companies.

The major producers such as Barrick, Newmont and Phelps Dodge, produce the majority of precious and base metals from large scale, geologically scattered operations. Property expansion by the majors typically comes from joint venture, consolidation or acquisition with junior exploration and mining companies. This occurs usually because a junior finds it difficult to initiate full scale operations due to the significant front end development costs. The majors can absorb and develop the newly discovered fields with little impact to overhead operations and can fund direct operations through forward sale of metals.

Juniors typically spend the majority of their money locating new potentially rich areas, proving up a portion of reserves through geological studies, analyses and drilling, and then initialing small scale operations. During that period most successful juniors draw the attention of and team in some way with a major producer.

Cost of operations/production is the driver in the industry. All product produced, particularly in the precious metals industry, is absorbed by the market. Demand exceeds supply. The most profitable companies have the lowest per ounce/pound cost of production. The highest return to investors, however, comes from junior companies, when successful, where per share prices are lower until a viable project is proven. Risk, though, is often higher with junior companies, unless and until they locate and acquire viable projects and adequate funding.

The prime customers for the precious metals sector of the industry are the refiners such as Englehart, Johnson Maffey, etc. These companies serve as the distributor of product between the producers and the consumers. The majority of precious metals produced are utilized by the industrial and electronics industry, the automotive industry, the jewelry industry and the investment community.

As metals prices have risen, so too has the interest in new areas for exploration and eventual production. The past two decades has seen a significant expansion of interest into Central and South America, as well as developing third world countries. Today’s price levels combined with the political uncertainties of many foreign projects, and the inability for year-round operations in portions of Alaska and northern Canada, has produced a resurgence of junior companies in the mainland United States. However, many juniors target only one or two categories of metals. This model of operation limits their chance for success for production or buyout.

The keys to success for today’s junior exploration and mining companies are four: 1. Property holdings and potential; 2. location; 3. metal diversity; and 4. cost of development and operation.

The Tombstone Property

The Tombstone District sits astride a regional NE trending structure. This structure is visible on topographic maps as well as satellite images of the American Southwest. It is a northeast trending rift structure or shear traceable from southwest of the Huachuca Mountains of Arizona northeast to Silver City, New Mexico.

The majority of veins and mineralized structures within the Tombstone District and neighboring districts exhibit the same northeast alignment as the above noted structure. In neighboring districts along the NE rift, silver and gold mineralization occur in igneous and sedimentary rocks, suggesting ore mineralization is pervasive and of considerable extent along this northeast trending, regional rift.

This structural trend of mineralization presents an exploration potential of tremendous magnitude, with precious metals and base metals distributed along and adjacent to the structure.

Geologic evaluation of ore-bearing structures within the Tombstone basin suggest that mineralization similar to that historically mined, could support an open pit heap leach operation such as that conducted by Tombstone Exploration, Inc., circa 1980 to 1985.

23

Mesothermal replacement deposits primarily of silver, gold, zinc and lead in the upper Paleozoic section and copper in the lower Paleozoic section below Tombstone are thought to continue at depth.

Copper replacement deposits in The Abrigo and Martin Formations as seen at Bisbee may be similar to those suspected beneath the West Tombstone/Charleston areas.

Multiple porphyry copper centers are known to occur elsewhere associated with Laramide-age granodiorite and quartz monzonite plutons. One such center, confirmed by deep drilling by ASARCO in 1973-74, occurs near the Robbers Roost, on Company property, where intense argillic alteration and mineralized breccia pipe emplacement are exposed by erosion.

Surface examination of the West Tombstone area reveals there are numerous veins and structures that have not been mined or explored. The close proximity of many of these structures and veins may allow for Slot or Open Pit mining methods if sufficiently high silver-gold values are carried between.

The high degree of vein wall rock alteration indicates the silver and gold mineralization should extend away from the veins into the wall rocks. Most of the veins observed appear to be fissure fillings within fractured intrusive dikes and sills. Aplite and Andesite porphyry dike rocks appear in fissure veins of the West Tombstone-Solstice area.

Skarn mineralization appears to underlie a portion of the project area. Observed locally, the Skarn mineralization appears to be contained beneath a series of low angle or thrust faults as seen on the face of the Ground Hog hill and constituting the Limestone-volcanic contact at the western end of the Carbonate patented lode claim.

Most prominent structures are veins occupying N-NE trending fault zones and shears. Ore appears to have been mined where highly manganiferous vein material is present in the NE structures.

In the west portions of the property, the limestone is altered into rocks typically identified with Carlin-Type Gold deposits. The limestone is intensely silicified and is locally jasperoidal.

This intense alteration was observed to occur in the footwall of a low angle, reverse fault. This is a typical location for the deposition of Carlin-Type mineralization as ore bearing fluids tend to pond or be trapped beneath impermeable rocks or clays associated with these faults.

Stratigraphy

The rocks composing the Tombstone district range from pre-Cambrian to Quaternary in age.

The oldest rock in the district is a fine-grained, greenish-grey schist, evidently pre-Cambrian and correlated with the Pinal schist of Bisbee. Granitic and porphyritic rocks that have been tentatively aged as pre-Cambrian intrude the Pinal schist.

The Bolsa quartzite lies unconformably over the pre-Cambrian, and locally is about 450 feet thick. This is succeeded by about 700 feet of the Cambrian Abrigo Limestone. Overlying the Abrigo is 350 feet of the Devonian Martin Limestone, followed by the Mississippian Escabrosa Limestone of about 500 feet thickness.

The Escabrosa Limestone is not easily distinguishable from the overlying Naco Limestone of Pennsylvanian and Permian age. Up to 3,000 feet of Naco Limestone is known. The Naco Limestone, intruded by dikes and sills of quartz latite porphyry, possibly erupted prior to deposition of the Mesozoic sedimentary units.

Unconformably overlying the Naco is the Bisbee group consisting of conglomerate, sandstone, quartzite, shale and limestone. Fossils in these beds indicate a Mesozoic age. The thickness of the Bisbee group is unknown. Following the deposition of sediments, The Schieffelin granite and the Uncle Sam porphyry were emplaced.

Last emplaced were the porphyritic andesite dikes, which occupy the NE trending shear zone structures.

Description of Claims

Our Tombstone Property consists of hundreds of contiguous mineral claims. The Company owns a 100% interest in all of these mineral claims, estimated at approximately 13,500 acres.

Permitting

Preparation of the Arizona Department of Water Resources Notice of Intent to Drill and Abandon an Exploration/Specialty Well permit documents is complete.

Development Strategy & Plan of Operations for the Next Twelve Months

The Company’s development strategy is to focus on and solidity the fundamental keys to success for a junior exploration and mining concern. These keys were identified in the Industry discussion.

1.

Property holdings and potential.

Plan: Continue geological analyses including mapping, and identification of drill targets. Focus on these targets for drilling, sampling and identifying potential reserves. Expand target areas as drilling progresses and studies expand knowledge of properties.

2.

Location

Plan : The Company’s property location in a known metal and mineral rich area with easy access, historical production, mining friendly community and ease of permitting puts Pure Capital in position for success. The Company will continue to identify areas on the property for mill site operation, improve off-road access and work closely with the city of Tombstone and the community at large to offer employment opportunities. The Company will also interface with the state levels in Arizona to establish itself as a significant contributor to the state economy.

3.

Metal diversity

Plan: A significant number of metals and minerals have already been identified on the company property including silver and gold, as identified in the geological report. The Company, with the help of consulting organizations, will further explore the range of metals and minerals, and the ability to extract/produce product for market. In the non precious metals areas, the Company will likely seek joint venture partners who will add to the success and financial returns for our shareholders.

4.

Cost of development and operation

Plan: The Company may establish a small production operation, subject to permitting, financing and sufficient resources, to begin silver and gold production with material from existing known sites. As drill targets identify key areas for metal bearing ore, the operation will be expanded to two large scale mill sites. The Company firmly believes from the geological report, sampling and historical production in the area, that a low cost / high profit operation will be developed.
