CREAM MINERALS LTD.

#1400 - 570 Granville Street
Vancouver, British Columbia
V6C 3P1

INFORMATION CIRCULAR

(As at July 31, 2003, except as indicated)

This information circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of Cream Minerals Ltd. (the "Company") for use at the annual general meeting of the Company to be held on September 25, 2003, and at any adjournments thereof.  Unless the context otherwise requires, references to the Company include the Company and its subsidiaries.  The solicitation will be conducted by mail and may be supplemented by telephone or other personal contact to be made without special compensation by officers and employees of the Company.  The cost of solicitation will be borne by the Company.

APPOINTMENT OF PROXYHOLDER

A duly completed form of proxy will constitute the person(s) named in the enclosed form of proxy as the shareholder's proxyholder.  The persons whose names are printed in the enclosed form of proxy for the Meeting are officers or Directors of the Company (the "Management Proxyholders").

A shareholder has the right to appoint a person other than a Management Proxyholder, to represent the shareholder at the Meeting by striking out the names of the Management Proxyholders and by inserting the desired person's name in the blank space provided or by executing a proxy in a form similar to the enclosed form.  A proxyholder need not be a shareholder.

VOTING BY PROXY

Common shares of the Company (the "Shares") represented by properly executed proxies in the accompanying form will be voted or withheld from voting on each respective matter in accordance with the instructions of the member (the "shareholder") on any ballot that may be called for.

If no choice is specified and one of the Management Proxyholders is appointed by a shareholder as proxyholder, such person will vote in favour of the matters proposed at the Meeting and for all other matters proposed by management at the Meeting.

The enclosed form of proxy also confers discretionary authority upon the person named therein as proxyholder with respect to amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of the Meeting and with respect to other matters which may properly come before the Meeting.  At the date of this Information Circular, management of the Company knows of no such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting.

COMPLETION AND RETURN OF PROXY

Completed forms of proxy must be delivered to the office of the Company's registrar and transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company of Canada by mail in the enclosed self-addressed envelope or failing that, by mail or by hand at 9th Floor, 100 University Avenue, Toronto, ON, Canada, M5J 2Y1, 


-2-

 

or by fax 1-(866) 249-7775, not later than forty-eight (48) hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, prior to the time of the Meeting, unless the chairman of the Meeting elects to exercise his discretion to accept proxies received subsequently.

NON-REGISTERED HOLDERS

Only registered shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting.  Most shareholders of the Company are "non-registered" shareholders because the Shares they own are not registered in their names but are instead registered in the name of the brokerage firm, bank or trust company through which they purchased the Shares.  More particularly, a person is not a registered shareholder in respect of Shares which are held on behalf of that person (the "Non-Registered Holder") but which are registered either: (a) in the name of an intermediary (an "Intermediary") that the Non-Registered Holder deals with in respect of the Shares (Intermediaries include, among others, banks, trust companies, securities dealers or brokers and trustees or administrators of self-administered RRSP's, RRIFs, RESPs and similar plans); or (b) in the name of a clearing agency (such as The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited ("CDS")) of which the Intermediary is a participant.  In accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 54-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators, the Company has distributed copies of the Notice of Meeting, this Information Circular and the Proxy (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") to the clearing agencies and Intermediaries for onward distribution to Non-Registered Holders.

Intermediaries are required to forward the Meeting Materials to Non-Registered Holders unless a Non-Registered Holder has waived the right to receive them.  Very often, Intermediaries will use service companies to forward the Meeting Materials to Non-Registered Holders.  Generally, Non-Registered Holders who have not waived the right to receive Meeting Materials will either:

(a)

be given a form of proxy which has already been signed by the Intermediary (typically by a facsimile, stamped signature), which is restricted as to the number of shares beneficially owned by the Non-Registered Holder but which is otherwise not completed.  Because the Intermediary has already signed the form of proxy, this form of proxy is not required to be signed by the Non-Registered Holder when submitting the proxy.  In this case, the Non-Registered Holder who wishes to submit a proxy should otherwise properly complete the form of proxy and deliver it to Computershare Trust Company of Canada as provided above; or

(b)

more typically, be given a voting instruction form which is not signed by the Intermediary, and which, when properly completed and signed by the Non-Registered Holder and returned to the Intermediary or its service company, will constitute voting instructions (often called a "proxy authorization form") which the Intermediary must follow.  Typically, the proxy authorization form will consist of a one page pre-printed form.  Sometimes, instead of the one page pre-printed form, the proxy authorization form will consist of a regular printed proxy form accompanied by a page of instructions which contains a removable label containing a bar-code and other information.  In order for the form of proxy to validly constitute a proxy authorization form, the Non-Registered Holder must remove the label from the instructions and affix it to the form of proxy, properly complete and sign the form of proxy and return it to the Intermediary or its service company in accordance with the instructions of the Intermediary or its service company.

In either case, the purpose of this procedure is to permit Non-Registered Holders to direct the voting of the Shares which they beneficially own.  Should a Non-Registered Holder who receives one of the above forms wish to vote at the Meeting in person, the Non-Registered Holder should strike out the names of the Management Proxyholders and insert the Non-Registered Holder's name in the blank space provided.



-3-



In either case, Non-Registered Holders who wish their shares to be voted at the Meeting should carefully follow the instructions of their Intermediary, including those regarding when and where the proxy or proxy authorization form is to be delivered.

REVOCABILITY OF PROXY

Any registered shareholder who has returned a proxy may revoke it at any time before it has been exercised.  In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a proxy may be revoked by instrument in writing, including a proxy bearing a later date, executed by the registered shareholder or by his attorney authorized in writing or, if the registered shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal or by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized.  The instrument revoking the proxy must be deposited at the registered office of the Company, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the date of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, or with the chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting.  Only registered shareholders have the right to revoke a proxy.  Non-Registered Holders who wish to change their vote must, at least 7 days before the Meeting, arrange for their respective Intermediaries to revoke the proxy on their behalf.

VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF

Presently, the Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 common shares without par value (the "common shares"), of which 22,173,777 common shares are issued and outstanding as at July 31, 2003.  The holders of common shares are entitled to one vote for each common share held.  Holders of common shares of record at the close of business on August 15, 2003 will be entitled to receive notice of and vote at the meeting.

To the knowledge of the Directors and senior officers of the Company, no person beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or exercises control or direction over shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to all shares of the Company, except the following:

INDEBTEDNESS TO COMPANY OF DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND SENIOR OFFICERS

There is no indebtedness of any Director, executive officer, senior officer, proposed nominee for election as a Director or associate of them, to or guaranteed or supported by the Company or any of its subsidiaries either pursuant to an employee stock purchase program of the Company or otherwise during the most recently completed financial year.

INTEREST OF INSIDERS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS

For the purposes hereof, an "insider" is a director or senior officer of the Company, a director or senior officer of a company that is itself an insider or subsidiary of the Company, or a person whose control, or direct or indirect beneficial ownership, or a combination thereof, over securities of the Company extends to securities carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to all the Company's outstanding voting securities

No insider or proposed nominee for election as a Director of the Company and no associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons has or has had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction since the commencement of the Company's last completed financial year or in any proposed transaction which in either such case has materially affected or will materially affect the Company, except as follows:

Shares for Debt

Subsequent to March 31, 2003, after receiving regulatory approval, the Company issued an aggregate 2,209,256 common shares to two individual insiders and to a private company controlled by an insider at a price of $0.15 per share.  The common shares are subject to a four-month hold period expiring September 13, 2003, and were issued in satisfaction of the Company's indebtedness to the three parties in the amount of $331,389.

APPOINTMENT OF AUDITOR

Unless otherwise instructed, the proxies given pursuant to this solicitation will be voted for the appointment of Morgan & Company, Chartered Accountants, of #1488 - 700 West Georgia Street
Vancouver, British Columbia, V7Y 1A1, British Columbia, as the auditor of the Company to hold office for the ensuing year at a remuneration to be fixed by the Directors.

MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS

Effective August 1, 2001, the Company entered into a Shareholder and Operating Agreement to be provided with management, administrative, geological and other services by LMC Management Services Ltd. ("LMC"), a private company held jointly by the Company and other public companies, to provide services on a full cost recovery basis to the various public entities currently sharing office space with the Company.  Certain directors and/or officers of the Company are also directors and/or officers of LMC.

As at March 31, 2003, the Company had a payable to LMC of $7,855, or approximately one month of working capital, for providing administrative, geological and management functions to the Company.  During the most recently completed financial year, the sum of $96,555 was paid to LMC, for providing administrative, geological and management functions to the Company.



-9-

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

Except as set out herein, no Director or senior officer of the Company or any proposed nominee of management of the Company for election as a Director of the Company, nor any associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons, has any substantial interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership or otherwise, in matters to be acted upon at the Meeting.

PARTICULARS OF OTHER MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

(a)

General Authority to Conclude Placements or Transactions

Under British Columbia corporate law, directors are vested with the authority to issue shares for cash, property (including settlement of debt) or services, providing that the valuation of non-cash consideration is fair and reasonable and in the best interest of the Company and the shares issued for such consideration are reasonably valued.  The Company uses the prevailing trading price of its Common Shares as quoted on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") as a benchmark for valuing its shares.  Pursuant to regulatory policies and prevailing industry standards, the Company may apply a discount of up to 25% from such market prices to reflect the fact that the purchasers of such treasury shares are generally subject to restrictive hold periods, for some period of time after completion of the share sale, pursuant to applicable securities legislation.  Under certain policies of the Exchange, issuances of shares by way of private placement in a number in excess of 25% of a listed company's then outstanding shares may require prior shareholders' approval.  In order to avoid the necessity and added expense of having to convene an additional shareholders' meeting in the event that arrangements satisfactory to the board are reached for a private placement transaction involving the issuance of shares prior to the shareholders' meeting to be held in 2004, management proposes to request advance approval at this time from the shareholders.  The limitations on the approval sought are that any transaction effected by the Company to issue shares must be to parties substantially at arms-length to the Company, must be completed prior to the date of the next Annual General Meeting and must receive the acceptance for filing of the regulatory officials of the Exchange.  The share issuances may occur in one or more transactions and with one or more recipients.  

Management proposes that shareholders favourably consider and approve the following resolution:

"Resolved as an ordinary resolution, that the directors of the Company be authorized to re-capitalize the Company, through the issuance of Common Shares for cash, property (including settlement of debts) or services, by issuing, in one or more private placements, such number of securities as would constitute in total an amount of Common Shares that exceeds 25% of the total number outstanding as at August 15, 2003 (the "Record Date"), during the next 12 month period."

The directors of the Company believe that passing an ordinary resolution giving effect to the foregoing is in the best interests of the Company and recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the resolution.  In the event the resolution is not passed, the Exchange may not approve any private placements which result in the issuance or possible issuance of a number of shares which exceeds the 25% figure, without specific shareholder approval.  Such restriction could impede the Company's timely access to required funds.







-10-


(b)

Existing Stock Options

The Company may grant additional stock options, subject to all necessary regulatory approvals.  Under the current TSX Venture Exchange policies, Shareholder approval is not required for the grant of stock options if granted in accordance with the policy.  However, TSX Venture Exchange policy requires that any decrease in the exercise price of stock options held by insiders be approved by a majority of the shareholders at the Meeting excluding insiders and their associates (the "Disinterested Shareholders").  Therefore, the Disinterested Shareholders of the Company will be asked to authorize the Directors in their discretion to amend stock options granted to insiders, subject to all necessary regulatory approvals.

Accordingly, the Disinterested Shareholders of the Company will be asked at the Meeting to pass an ordinary resolution, the text of which will be in substantially the form below:

"Resolved as an ordinary resolution of the Disinterested Shareholders of the Company that Directors in their discretion be authorized to amend stock options previously granted to insiders, subject to all necessary regulatory approvals."

The number of shares under option from time to time and the exercise prices of such options, and any amendments thereto, will be and have been determined by the Directors in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange.

(c)

Other Matters

Management of the Company is not aware of any other matter to come before the Meeting other than as set forth in the notice of Meeting.  If any other matter properly comes before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy to vote the shares represented thereby in accordance with their best judgment on such matter.

AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Shareholders of Cream Minerals Ltd.


We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Cream Minerals Ltd. as at March 31, 2003 and 2002, and the consolidated statements of operations and deficit and cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian 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.


In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at March 31, 2003 and 2002 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years ended March 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.  As required by the Company Act (British Columbia), we report that, in our opinion, these principles have been applied on a consistent basis.

CREAM MINERALS LTD.

(an exploration stage company)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Years ended March 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001



1.

Going concern and nature of operations


Cream Minerals Ltd. (the "Company") is incorporated in the Province of British Columbia under the Company Act (British Columbia), and its principal business activity is the exploration and development of mineral properties.


These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue realizing its assets and discharging its liabilities in the normal course of business.  Accordingly, they do not give effect due to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities, contingent obligations and commitments in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those in these financial statements.  As disclosed in the financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficiency as at March 31, 2003, of  $478,129 (2002 - $285,499) and an accumulated deficit of $13,734,680 (2002 - $12,478,243).  


The Company has capitalized $527,656 in acquisition and related costs to the Kaslo Silver property, the Raven and other Canadian properties and the Nuevo Milenio property.  On the Nuevo Milenio property, tax payments are required to be made twice yearly on an escalating basis, in January and July of each year, to maintain the concessions.  The Company must make cash payments of $25,000 and issue 200,000 common shares in fiscal 2004 to maintain its mineral property interests.  Subsequent to March 31, 2003, cash payments of $7,500 were made and 100,000 common shares were issued.   


Without additional external funding to meet existing obligations and to finance further exploration and development work on its mineral properties, there is substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  Although the Company has been successful in raising funds to date, there can be no assurance that additional funding will be available in the future.  The financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities that would be necessary if the Company were unable to achieve profitable mining operations or obtain adequate financing.


2.

Significant accounting policies


(a)

Basis of consolidation


These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").  These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Cream Minerals de Mexico, S.A. de C.V.  


(b)

Use of estimates


The presentation 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates include the determination of impairment of mineral property interests, investments, reclamation obligations and classification of accounts receivable between current and non-current assets.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Years ended March 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001




2.

Significant accounting policies (continued)


(c)

Cash and cash equivalents


Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with maturities of less than ninety days from the original date of acquisition.


(d)

Fair value of financial instruments


The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, taxes recoverable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and accounts payable to related parties approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.  The Company has concluded that it is not practicable to determine the fair value of its amounts due to related parties.


(e)

Mineral property interests


Mineral property acquisition costs and exploration and development costs are recorded at cost and deferred until the property to which they relate is placed into production, sold, allowed to lapse or abandoned.  These costs will be amortized over the estimated useful life of the property following commencement of commercial production or written off if the property is sold, allowed to lapse or abandoned.


Mineral property acquisition costs include cash expenses and the fair market value of common shares, based on the trading price of the shares, issued for mineral property interests, pursuant to the related property agreements.  Payments relating to a property acquired under an option or joint venture agreement, where payments are made at the sole discretion of the Company, are recorded as mineral property costs upon payment.


Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for the current stage of explorations of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title.  Property title may be subject to unregistered prior agreements and non-compliance regulatory requirements.


The amount shown for mineral property interests represents costs incurred to date and the fair market value of common shares issued and does not necessarily reflect present or future value.


(f)

Investments


The Company accounts for its portfolio investments as long-term investments.  They are recorded at cost unless a permanent impairment in value has been determined, at which time they are written down to market value.


(g)

Income taxes


Income taxes are calculated using the liability method of accounting.  Temporary differences arising from the difference between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its carrying amount on the balance sheet are used to calculate future income tax liabilities or assets.  Future tax assets are recognized to the extent that they are considered more likely than not to be realized.  Future income tax liabilities or assets are calculated using the tax rates anticipated to apply in the periods that the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Years ended March 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001




2.

Significant accounting policies (continued)


(h)

Translation of foreign currencies


The Company's operations in Mexico are considered to be integrated for the purposes of foreign currency translation.  Its monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date, non-monetary assets and related amortization at historical rates, and revenue and expense items at the exchange rates prevailing on transaction dates.  Foreign currency translation gains or losses are included in the consolidated statements of operations and deficit.  


(i)

Share option plan


The Company has adopted the new Canadian standard for accounting for stock-based compensation.  As permitted by the standard, the Company has elected not to follow the fair value method of accounting for stock options granted.  Under this method, no compensation expense is recognized when the options are granted pursuant to the plan.  


In accordance with the standard, the fair value of any options granted after April 1, 2002, are disclosed within the notes to the accounts.  There were no such options granted in fiscal 2002 therefore no such disclosure has been made.  Any consideration paid by directors and employees on exercise of stock options or purchase of shares is credited to share capital.


(j)

Loss per common share


Loss per common share has been calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year.  The Company has adopted the revised recommendations of the CICA, whereby new rules are applied in the calculation of diluted earnings per share.  The revised standard has been applied on a retroactive basis and did not result in any restatement of the Company's financial statements.  Basic and diluted losses per share are the same, as the effect of potential issuances of shares under warrant or share option arrangements would be anti-dilutive.

CREAM MINERALS LTD.

Quarterly and Annual Report

SCHEDULE C:  MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION


PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS


On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to present the Annual Report of Cream Minerals Ltd. for the year ended March 31, 2003.


Currently, Cream is engaged in an exploratory program on the Nuevo Milenio Claims, an exciting gold-silver prospect, located south of Tepic in the municipality of Xalisco, State of Nayarit, Mexico.  We are also enthusiastic about the exploration potential on our newest acquisitions, the Bayonne Aquamarine property, and the Goldsmith and Lucky Jack gold properties, all located in southeastern British Columbia.  


NUEVO MILENIO SILVER-GOLD PROPERTY, MEXICO


The Nuevo Milenio property, located south of Tepic in the municipality of Xalisco, State of Nayarit, Mexico, covers a small caldera approximately five kilometres in diameter.  The caldera's rim is partially defined by rhyolitic intrusions and domes.  Three styles of gold-silver mineralization have been identified on the property, i) narrow bonanza-grade veins which were the target of early Spanish explorers; ii) broad vein and stockwork zones discovered in trenching; and iii) disseminated deposits hosted in silicified and argillized tuffs.  The principal structures are defined by numerous colonial workings.  The project is in the early stages of exploration and there are no known records of past diamond drill work.  Work completed to date has been extensively documented and defines the geology and geochemistry of a few areas within the 3,000-hectare property.  


In the second quarter of fiscal 2003 Cream completed a five-hole diamond-drilling program totalling 726 meters to test the depth dimensions of three mineral zones on the property.  The program consisted of five, minus 45o holes, with mixed results.   


All of the mineralized zones have former workings that have been subjected to deep surface leaching of gold-silver values and now show only limonitic stained silicified and argillized rocks on surface.  In the workings, fresh exposures show vuggy silica, coarse and fine quartz veinlets, stockwork filling and brecciation filled with chalcedonic quartz with locally fine scattered pyrite.  Pyrite to date has not been commonly observed in outcrop.  The mineralized zones show evidence of multiple hydrothermal mineralizing events.  Three target zones, Chacuaco, Dos Hornos and Once Bocas have provided encouraging surface results and cover relatively large areas in terms of several hundreds of meters in both potential width and length.


Soil sample results indicate that there is a broad mineralized zone trending northwest across Cerro Chacuaco.  The target zone appears to have a surface expression of some 400 metres east-west and some 200 metres north-south and is open to the south.  This part of the mineralized zone lies in an area where erosion has recently removed a basalt cover within a caldera.  Geologically, tertiary basalt flows cover part of the caldera and part of the mineralized zone, thus protecting much of it from weathering and intense surface leaching.  In those areas where surface leaching appears to have been less intense because of protection by basalt, or where erosion has caused partial removal of the leached cap, there exists the likelihood of higher gold-silver values being near surface and therefore having potential for open pit mining or bulk-tonnage targets.



CREAM MINERALS LTD.

Quarterly and Annual Report

March 31, 2003

 

Additional geologic and geochemical investigation of the La Curva caldera is under way.  An independent geological consultant has recommended hand trenching and select sampling of the disseminated target areas to gather further data on precious metal concentrations and other elements.  Rock chip sampling is proposed along with a further reconnaissance review and diamond drilling.

BAYONNE AQUAMARINE PROPERTIES


During the year, Cream optioned the Bayonne Aquamarine properties located in the Nelson Mining Division, British Columbia.


Dr. J.H. Montgomery, Ph.D. P.Eng., in a letter dated January 24, 2003, has provided a preliminary evaluation of several aquamarine deposits based upon an examination of a suite of aquamarine specimens in host matrix.  Dr. Montgomery is a qualified person in gemstone evaluation.  The letter is divided into three parts: Geological setting, Description of Specimens and Recommendations.


Geological Setting


Currently, the deposits are covered by five claim groups: Lloyds Mine (4 units), OMG (14 units), Cultus (2 units), Rusty (4units) and Toby (12 units) for a total of 36 units or 900 hectares.  Additional staking is in progress to cover the prospective ground.  The beryl/aquamarine deposits are at or near the eastern and southern contacts of the Shaw Creek Intrusive (Unit KBSC), one of the eight divisions of the Cretaceous/Jurassic bayonne batholith.  The deposits occur mainly in the pegmatites, which intrude either the KBSC division of the batholith or contact rocks intruded by that division.  The intrusive rock is termed by Reeser (1996) as biotite leucogranodiorite with megacrysts of potassium feldspar.  The pegmatites are composed mainly of coarse crystals of quartz, feldspar, biotite and beryl.  Access to most of the properties is by road with short hikes, but some helicopter trips were necessary.


Description of Specimens


A suite of samples examined by Dr. Montgomery contained coarse crystals of coloured beryl (blue and green) in coarse quartz-feldspar-biotite pegmatite.  Photographs on Cream's website show the general character of the mineralization.  The beryl crystals range in size from 0.5 cm To 20.0 cm in length with diameters from 0.4 to 7.0 cm.  Colour ranges from blue to bluish-green.  The majority of the crystals are non-gem aquamarine and non-gem emerald.  One small crystal of clear, light blue aquamarine noted is of gem quality.

 


CREAM MINERALS LTD.

Quarterly and Annual Report

March 31, 2003

 

Recommendations


Dr. Montgomery recommends that the presence of large crystals of green and blue beryl over a wide area and the presence of one crystal of gem quality aquamarine is sufficient to warrant an exploration program over the areas in which the beryl-bearing pegmatites occur along the intrusive contact of Shaw Creek granodiorite.  The preliminary program should consist of geological mapping and geochemical surveys for beryllium and chromium.  Anomalies may be evaluated with follow-up trenching.


Cream recently commenced a fieldwork program consisting of a geological crew mapping and sampling crystals throughout the property.


GOLDSMITH PROPERTY


Cream entered into an option agreement to acquire the Goldsmith property consisting of 14 mineral units in three (3) mineral claims, located near Kaslo, British Columbia.  The Goldsmith property was initially staked in 1903 when rich gold bearing quartz veins were discovered by placer miners working on Poplar Creek, which runs through the northwest corner of the property and flows into the Lardeau River.


The property is underlain by carbonaceous phyllitic rocks of the Index Formation, which are cut by Mesozoic metadiorite dikes.  Numerous, irregular quartz veins are associated with the intrusive rocks and can carry very high quantities of free gold.  Gold content is irregular within the veins and smaller veins appear to be of higher grade than the larger ones.  Westmin Resources last worked the area in 1980 and 1981 and discovered an extensive gold soil anomaly on the Property.  Cream plans to investigate this anomaly along with prospecting and trenching in preparation for diamond drill testing.


LUCKY JACK PROPERTY


Cream entered into an option agreement to acquire the Lucky Jack Claim Group consisting of six (6) mineral claims, located near Kaslo, British Columbia.  The Lucky Jack Claim Group is adjacent to the Goldsmith Property and shares the same history and geology.  


A detailed exploration program is being planned on the Goldsmith and Lucky Jack properties, subject to the Company obtaining sufficient financing.


MANITOBA NICKEL PROPERTY


During the year, Cream acquired a 30,000-hectare mineral lease in northern Manitoba.  The property is entirely covered by unconsolidated tills, alluvial sediments and a thin veneer of Paleozoic sediments below which the geology is believed to consist of rocks belonging to the extension of the Thompson Nickel Belt.  The property adjoins a similar size mineral lease held by ValGold Resources Ltd. ("ValGold").  A ground geophysical survey completed by ValGold on a small portion of its property identified a large magnetic anomaly, which may represent a near flat-lying massive sulphide target.  In the Thompson belt such targets have the potential to host economic concentrations of nickel, copper and platinum group elements.


Cream intends to have the property covered by an airborne geophysical survey in order to further define targets for diamond drill testing.  The survey will include both magnetic and electromagnetic coverage.

KASLO SILVER PROPERTY, BRITISH COLUMBIA


The 4000-hectare Kaslo Silver property is located 12 kilometres west of the town of Kaslo in southeastern British Columbia.  The property encompasses the historic Keen Creek Silver belt and includes ten former high-grade silver mines that operated on the property from 1895 to 1953.  Historical records show that silver grades ranged from 100 to 5000 grams per tonne.


Work in 1998 found that silver mineralization is controlled by two major shear zones that have been traced across the property for a distance of at least 7 kilometres.  To date, over 14 kilometres of sub-parallel shear structures have been identified by geophysics along the two zones, which are believed to extend the entire 11-kilometre length of the property.


Three of the more promising areas yielded excellent silver assays.  Some of these are (1) Bismark, Hole 98GC-8 - 313.72 g/t silver over 9.3 metres from 15.8 to 25.1 metres.  (2) Cork South, Hole 98CP-4 - 209.30 g/t silver over 21.1 metres from 3.9 to 25.0 metres and (3) Silver Bear, Trench T97-11, 194.5 g/t silver, 1.37% lead and 2.10% zinc from 0 to 40 metres (representing a true width of 10 metres).


Preliminary metallurgical testing was completed on a representative composite of 3 of 6 samples taken from the Silver Bear Zone by excavator from an 80-metre long section of the 25-metre by 6-kilometer long mineralized shear zone.  The head grade of the composite material was 780 g/t silver, 13.2% lead and 6.8% zinc.


After testing, the composite material was shown to readily produce both a high-grade lead concentrate with a recovery of 87 percent and a good grade of zinc concentrate with a recovery in excess of 50 percent.  Silver recovery associated with the lead concentrates was between 60 and 70 percent while an additional 10 percent recovery reported to the zinc concentrate.


Subject to financing, Cream plans to collect a 5,000 to 10,000 tonne bulk sample from each of Silver Bear and Cork South and have them processed at a nearby mill.  It is expected that the value of the metals recovered from the program will pay the cost.  Expenditures in the current fiscal year have been related to maintenance of the property.  The property has been written down by $1,103,700 to a nominal carrying value of $1 in accordance with the recommendations of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants Accounting Guideline 11, to reflect the extended period of minimal activity on the property.


TERRA GAIA INC.


Cream entered into an agreement with Terra Gaia Inc. (formerly Terra Gaia Environmental Group Inc.) ("Terra Gaia") by which it could acquire up to 100% of the outstanding shares of Terra Gaia, a private Canadian company.  Cream was to have completed a financing to raise approximately $3.2 million, which was to be advanced to Terra Gaia pursuant to the agreement, to be used to build and operate a proposed demonstration plant and provide working capital for Terra Gaia.  In consideration for Cream's arrangement of the financing, Terra Gaia would have issued shares to Cream in an amount equal to 50% of the then outstanding share capital of Terra Gaia.  Cream decided not to pursue the opportunity provided by the Terra Gaia transaction.  Cream believes in the economic viability of the Terra Gaia technology and retains 100,000 shares at a cost of $25,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of Cream Minerals Ltd. ("Cream") for the years ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, and related notes thereto.  Cream's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.  


Overview


Cream is a mineral exploration company with no producing properties and consequently has no current operating income or cash flow.  All of Cream's short to medium-term operating and exploration cash flow must be derived from external financing.  Cream is in the process of attempting to raise additional financing to complete its proposed exploration programs for fiscal 2004.  


Cream's accounting policy is to capitalize all costs relating to the acquisition, exploration and development of its mineral property interests until the property to which they relate is placed into production, sold, allowed to lapse or abandoned.  As at March 31, 2003, Cream has capitalized $527,656 (2002 - $1,344,708) on the acquisition and exploration of mineral property interests.


Until June 30, 2001, Cream received management, office, administrative, and geological services from Lang Mining Corporation ("Lang Mining"), a private company owned by the president of Cream, and reimbursed Lang Mining on a cost plus 15% basis.  Cream also paid to Lang Mining management fees of $7,500 during that year.  The administration fees and services contract with Lang Mining expired on June 30, 2001, but Cream continued with the contract until July 31, 2001.  Effective January 1, 2003, Cream commenced paying Lang Mining $2,500 per month for the services of the President and Chairman of the Company, for a total of $7,500 in fiscal 2003.  These services are not provided through LMC Management Services Ltd. ("LMC").


Effective August 1, 2001, Cream has contracted its management, administrative, geological and other services to LMC, a private company held with a group of other public companies, to provide services on a full cost recovery basis to the various public companies currently sharing office premises.


Financing Activities and Capital Expenditures


For the year ended March 31, 2003 ("fiscal 2003"), Cream completed a private placement of 1,166,666 units at $0.15, each unit comprised of a common share and one share purchase warrant, exercisable at $0.20 in the first year and $0.25 in the second year for proceeds of $175,000.  This compares to $150,000 received from a private placement of 1,500,000 units at a price of $0.10 completed in the year ended March 31, 2002 ("fiscal 2002").  The funds were primarily used for exploration of the Nuevo Milenio property in Nayarit, Mexico and administration expenses.  


During fiscal 2003, Cream expended $30,890 on acquisition costs and $259,432 on exploration and development costs on the Nuevo Milenio, Kaslo and other properties compared to $184,524 on exploration and development costs and $29,130 on acquisition costs in fiscal 2002, which were expended primarily on the Nuevo Milenio, Blue Jay and Profit Lake properties.  No major exploration work has been carried out on the Kaslo Silver property and in accordance with CICA Accounting Guideline 11, the Company has written the property down in fiscal 2003 by $1,103,700 to a nominal carrying value of $1.  Additional property write-downs included $3,674 expended on the Raven property.  A sampling program was carried out on the property in fiscal 2003.  Due to weather conditions the program was not completed.  The Canadian properties, including the Raven and Bayonne properties are carried at a total cost of $29,754, $27,376 of which is acquisition costs and $2,378 is exploration expenditures.



CREAM MINERALS LTD.

Quarterly and Annual Report

March 31, 2003

 

Cream has the right and option to earn 100% interest in the Bayonne Aquamarine properties by making payments totalling $100,000 and issuing 500,000 common shares over four years as follows: Cash payments of $5,000 on regulatory approval (paid), $5,000 at the end of six months, $10,000 at the end of 12 months, and $20,000, $30,000 and $30,000 at the end of 24, 36 and 48 months respectively, from the date of regulatory approval.  Share payments include 100,000 common shares upon regulatory approval (issued) and each twelve-month interval thereafter to a total of 500,000 common shares.  A royalty is payable consisting of a 2% Net Products Return ("NPR") Royalty from the production of gemstones from the property, one half of which may be purchased upon commencement of commercial production for $1,000,000.


Cream entered into an option agreement to acquire the Goldsmith property consisting of 14 mineral units in three (3) mineral claims, located near Kaslo, British Columbia.  The option allows Cream to obtain a 100% interest in and to the property by making payments to the Optionors of $110,000 ($2,500 paid subsequent to March 31, 2003) and issuing 200,000 common shares (50,000 issued subsequent to March 31, 2003) over a six-year period.  Upon fulfilling the above obligations, Cream will hold a 100% interest in the Property subject only to a 2.0% Net Smelter Return royalty ("NSR").  Cream has the right to reduce the NSR to 1.0% by the payment of $1,000,000 to the Optionors at any time up to and including the commencement of commercial production.


Cream entered into an option agreement to acquire the Lucky Jack Claim Group property consisting of six (6) mineral claims, located near Kaslo, British Columbia.  The Lucky Jack Claim Group is adjacent to the Goldsmith Property and shares the same history and geology.  The option allows Cream to obtain a 100% interest in and to the Property by making payments to the Optionor of $110,000 ($5,000 paid subsequent to March 31, 2003) and issuing 200,000 common shares (50,000 issued subsequent to March 31, 2003) over a six-year period.  Upon fulfilling the above obligations, Cream will hold a 100% interest in the Property subject only to a 2.0% NSR.  Cream has the right to reduce the NSR to 1.0% by the payment of $1,000,000 to the Optionor at any time up to and including the commencement of commercial production.


During the year, Cream acquired a 30,000-hectare mineral lease in northern Manitoba.  A minimum work deposit of $16,503 has been filed with the Manitoba Director of Mines with respect to this lease.


Cream halted all further exploration of the Profit Lake property in Ontario and the Blue Jay property in British Columbia acquired in fiscal 2001 and the early part of fiscal 2002 due to unsatisfactory exploration results.  After a short exploration program on the properties, Cream determined that the properties did not meet expectations and during fiscal 2002 Cream wrote off $37,914 of exploration expenditures and acquisition costs relating to these properties.  


Cream currently maintains an interest in the Raven Mineral claims, which are under option and are located on the west coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia.  The option agreement calls for the issuance of 200,000 common shares and payments totalling $380,000 over a five-year period.  The first year's commitment included a $50,000 exploration program, which was completed.  The first year's payment of $30,000 and issuance of 50,000 common shares were made.  Cream has written the property down to a nominal carrying value of $1, and is currently reviewing the status of the property with the optionors.  Cream and the optionors of the Raven property have agreed that the property and share payments on this property are to be deferred.  No cash or share payments were made to the optionors in fiscal 2003 or fiscal 2002.  The optionors will retain a 3% NSR royalty if the Company continues to maintain its interest in the property.  Cream can acquire 1.5% of the NSR from gold and silver and 2.0% of the NSR on base metals and other minerals for a total of $1,500,000.  



CREAM MINERALS LTD.

Quarterly and Annual Report

March 31, 2003

 

Current assets decreased to $24,301 in fiscal 2003 as compared to $34,085 in fiscal 2002.  The Company is unable to meet its current commitments of $502,430 (2002 - $319,583) from existing cash balances, and as a result, the Company issued 2,209,256 common shares to three related parties at a price of $0.15 per share subsequent to the year ended March 31, 2003, in settlement of indebtedness in the amount of $331,389, which balance is included in the current commitments noted above.   


Investments in marketable securities were valued at $33,335 in fiscal 2003 as compared to $36,498 in fiscal 2002.  The book value of these securities is $43,894.  Cream retains 100,000 shares of Terra Gaia Inc., a private company, at a cost of $25,000.  Shares with a book value of $41,796 are investments in companies with officers and directors in common with the Company.


All of Cream's short to medium-term operating and exploration cash flow must be derived from external financing.  As discussed below, Cream is in the process of attempting to raise additional financing to complete its proposed exploration programs for fiscal 2004.  In the event that market conditions prevent Cream from receiving external financing, Cream will be forced to review its property holdings and prioritize project exploration to fit within cash availability.  Cream's primary exploration focus is currently on the Nuevo Milenio property in Mexico and the Goldsmith, Lucky Jack and Bayonne Aquamarine properties in British Columbia.  


With respect to its other mineral property interests, Cream had planned a $3 million exploration program that would include geological mapping, expanded geophysical surveys, gravity surveys, additional soil sampling and 12,100 meters of diamond drilling over existing zones and new targets, on the Black Bear, Black Fox and Ben Hur areas of the Kaslo Silver Property.  This program is contingent on obtaining additional financing.  


During the year ended March 31, 2001, Cream acquired three mining lots in the State of Nayarit, Mexico, by denouncement (the Nuevo Milenio property).  An exploration program was conducted on the property in fiscal 2003 at a total cost of $248,631 for a total expenditure to date on the property of $497,901.  In Mexico, tax payments are due in January and July of each year for all mineral property concessions.  These payments escalate and are indexed for all exploration permits.  To date, Cream has made all required tax payments.   The Company has an additional drilling and exploration program planned for the Nuevo Milenio property of $250,000.  This program is contingent on obtaining financing for the program.  


Cream has made all the share issuances and cash payments on its current mineral property interests, other than the payments due on the Raven property.  It does not currently anticipate any deficiencies in long-term liquidity but if any such deficiencies arise, Cream would expect to raise additional funds through private placements of its shares, or some other form of equity financing.  


The Company's ability to continue in operation is dependent on the continuing support of its creditors and funding from related parties, and the Company's ability to secure additional financing.  While it has been successfully in securing additional financing in the past, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future.  Accordingly, these financial statements do not reflect adjustment to the carrying value of assets and liabilities and balance sheet classifications that would be necessary if going concern assumptions were not appropriate.  Some adjustments could be material and there is significant doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Operating Results


Cream currently has a working capital deficiency of $478,129 (2002 - $285,499), and an accumulated deficit of $13,734,680 (2002 - $12,478,243).  


Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2003 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2002


For the year ended March 31, 2003, Cream incurred a loss of $1,256,437 or $0.07 per common share, compared to $306,380, or $0.02 per common share for the year ended March 31, 2002.  Total operating expenses, before interest income and mineral property write-downs were $149,400 in fiscal 2003 as compared to $146,121 in fiscal 2002.  In fiscal 2003 Cream wrote down the Kaslo property by $1,103,700 to a nominal carrying value of $1 as no significant exploration activity has been carried out of the property due to financial constraints for several years.  Total mineral property write-downs in fiscal 2003 totalled $1,107,374 as compared to write-downs in fiscal 2002 of the Profit Lake, Blue Jay and Raven mineral property interests for a total of $161,466.  


Legal, accounting and audit fees decreased from $34,481 in fiscal 2002 to $18,871 in fiscal 2003.  Certain accounting functions were performed by a contractor in fiscal 2002, but are now offset by an increase in salaries and benefits from $48,952 in fiscal 2002 to $55,239 in fiscal 2003.  


Shareholder communications increased from $22,287 in fiscal 2002 to $35,334 in fiscal 2003.  Listing and filing fees increased from $8,507 in fiscal 2002 to $10,149 in fiscal 2003.  Transfer agent fees increased from $6,274 in fiscal 2002 to $6,946 in fiscal 2003.  Website, printing, answering investor queries, and other related costs increased from $7,506 in fiscal 2002 to $18,239 in fiscal 2003.  Stock option compensation of $5,939 is included in fiscal 2003 with no comparative expenditure in fiscal 2002.  Annual report and proxy solicitation costs are also included in shareholder communications expenses, as are the costs of preparing maps and other figures used for display purposes.  During the year ended March 31, 2003, there were no investor relations consultants under contract to Cream.  


Travel and conference costs of $845 in fiscal 2002 compare to $532 in fiscal 2003.  Management fees were paid to Lang Mining Corporation ("Lang Mining"), a private company controlled by the president of the Company for the services of the president and chairman of $7,500 in each fiscal year.  The Company has agreed to pay a management fee of $2,500 per month to Lang Mining commencing January 1, 2003.  The management fees paid in fiscal 2002 were paid to Lang Mining for the three months ended June 30, 2001, when the office administration services contract with Lang Mining expired and LMC Management Services Ltd. ("LMC") commenced providing office and other administrative services to the Company.  Office and administration expenses have decreased from $30,765 in fiscal 2002 to $10,652 in fiscal 2003, due to the Company's effort to continue to decrease overhead.  


Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2002 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2001


For the year ended March 31, 2002, Cream incurred a loss of $306,380 or $0.02 per common share, compared to $239,201, or $0.02 per common share for the year ended March 31, 2001.  Total operating expenses, before interest income were $146,121 in fiscal 2002 compared to $241,682 in fiscal 2001.  Cream wrote down the Profit Lake, Blue Jay and Raven mineral property interests for a total of $161,466 in fiscal 2002.  There were no write-downs of mineral property interests in fiscal 2001.



CREAM MINERALS LTD.

Quarterly and Annual Report

March 31, 2003

 

Cream's expenditures for fiscal 2002 continue to reflect an overall decrease in activity over the prior year as Cream has been under pressure to conserve cash flow.  


Legal, accounting and audit fees increased from $19,003 in fiscal 2001 to $34,481 in fiscal 2002, as certain accounting functions are performed by a contractor, offset by a decrease in office and administrative expenses which decreased from $74,575 in fiscal 2001 to $30,765 in fiscal 2002, reflecting the reduced activity.  Shareholder communications and travel and conferences decreased from $45,266 and $2,936, respectively, in fiscal 2001 to $22,287 and $845, respectively, in fiscal 2002.  Salaries and benefits decreased from $68,273 in fiscal 2001 to $48,952 in fiscal 2002.  There were severance costs incurred in fiscal 2001.  In fiscal 2002, there were no investor relations consultants under contract to Cream.  


Effective April 1, 2000, Cream adopted the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with the recommendations of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants.  Under this method, future income tax assets and liabilities are based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities measured using current income tax rates.  Cream has applied the new recommendations retroactively.  The adoption of the liability method of tax allocations did not result in any adjustment to opening retained earnings.  


General


Subject to regulatory approval and subsequent to the year ended March 31, 2003, Cream has retained the services of Renmark Financial Communications Inc. ("Renmark") to provide investor relations services.  Renmark will distribute news and information on Cream and provide consistent and timely contact with Cream's shareholders, other investors and industry professionals on behalf of Cream.  Renmark will receive a fee of $4,000 per month starting August 2003.  The term of the contract is for 12 months, with a minimum 6-month service period.  Renmark and its employees are at arm's-length to Cream.

During fiscal 2003, 1,151,000 stock options were granted to employees, directors and consultants at $0.15 per share expiring between April 26, 2007 and May 17, 2007.  During fiscal 2003 10,000 stock options were exercised at a price of $0.10 and 261,400 options with an exercise price of $0.30 expired, unexercised.  Stock options granted during fiscal 2003 were issued pursuant to a stock option plan approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held in September 2000 and approved by the TSX Venture Exchange.

CREAM MINERALS LTD.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002

(Unaudited - prepared by management)



1.

Going concern and nature of operations


The accompanying financial statements for the interim periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, are prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in Canada and are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for fair presentation of the financial position, operations and changes in financial results for the interim periods presented.  The financial statements for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  These financial statements do not contain the detail or footnote disclosure concerning accounting policies and other matters, which would be included in full year financial statements, and therefore should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2003.  


Cream Minerals Ltd. (the "Company") is incorporated in the Province of British Columbia under the Company Act (British Columbia), and its principal business activity is the exploration and development of mineral properties.


These financial statements are prepared on a going-concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue realizing its assets and discharging its liabilities in the normal course of business.  Accordingly, they do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities, contingent obligations and commitments in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those in these financial statements.  The Company has a working capital deficiency as at June 30, 2003, of $229,687.


Without additional external funding to meet existing obligations and to finance further exploration and development work on its mineral properties, there is substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to operate as a going concern.  Although the Company has been successful in raising funds to date, there can be no assurance that additional funding will be available in the future.  The financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities that would be necessary if the Company were unable to achieve profitable mining operations or obtain adequate financing.


Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for the current stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title.  Property title may be subject to unregistered prior agreements and non-compliance regulatory requirements.


2.

Mineral property interests


Goldsmith property


The Company holds an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Goldsmith property located near Kaslo, British Columbia.  The option agreement calls for the issuance of 200,000 common shares (50,000 issued) and cash payments totalling $110,000 ($2,500 paid) over six years.  The optionors will retain a 2% net smelters return royalty ("NSR") on all metals.  Cream has the right to reduce the NSR to 1.0% by the payment of $1,000,000 to the Optionor at any time up to and including the commencement of commercial production.


Lucky Jack property


The Company entered into an option agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the Lucky Jack mineral claims located near Kaslo, British Columbia.  The option agreement calls for the issuance of 200,000 common shares (50,000 issued) and payments totalling $110,000 ($5,000 paid) over 6 years.  The optionor will retain a 2% NSR royalty on all metals.  Cream has the right to reduce the NSR to 1.0% by the payment of $1,000,000 to the Optionor at any time up to and including the commencement of commercial production.

SCHEDULE C:  MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION


NUEVO MILENIO SILVER-GOLD PROPERTY, MEXICO


The Nuevo Milenio property, located south of Tepic in the municipality of Xalisco, State of Nayarit, Mexico, covers a small caldera approximately five kilometres in diameter.  The caldera's rim is partially defined by rhyolitic intrusions and domes.  Three styles of gold-silver mineralization have been identified on the property, i) narrow bonanza-grade veins which were the target of early Spanish explorers; ii) broad vein and stockwork zones discovered in trenching; and iii) disseminated deposits hosted in silicified and argillized tuffs.  The principal structures are defined by numerous colonial workings.  The project is in the early stages of exploration and there are no known records of past diamond drill work.  Work completed to date has been extensively documented and defines the geology and geochemistry of a few areas within the 3,000-hectare property.  


All of the mineralized zones have former workings that have been subjected to deep surface leaching of gold-silver values and now show only limonitic stained silicified and argillized rocks on surface.  In the workings, fresh exposures show vuggy silica, coarse and fine quartz veinlets, stockwork filling and brecciation filled with chalcedonic quartz with locally fine scattered pyrite.  Pyrite to date has not been commonly observed in outcrop.  The mineralized zones show evidence of multiple hydrothermal mineralizing events.  Three target zones, Chacuaco, Dos Hornos and Once Bocas have provided encouraging surface results and cover relatively large areas in terms of several hundreds of meters in both potential width and length.


Soil sample results indicate that there is a broad mineralized zone trending northwest across Cerro Chacuaco.  The target zone appears to have a surface expression of some 400 metres east west and some 200 metres north south and is open to the south.  This part of the mineralized zone lies in an area where erosion has recently removed a basalt cover within a caldera.  Geologically, tertiary basalt flows cover part of the caldera and part of the mineralized zone, thus protecting much of it from weathering and intense surface leaching.  In those areas where surface leaching appears to have been less intense because of protection by basalt, or where erosion has caused partial removal of the leached cap, there exists the likelihood of higher gold-silver values being near surface and therefore having potential for open pit mining or bulk-tonnage targets.


Additional geologic and geochemical investigation of the La Curva caldera is under way.  An independent geological consultant has recommended hand trenching and select sampling of the disseminated target areas to gather further data on precious metal concentrations and other elements.  Rock chip sampling is proposed along with a further reconnaissance review and diamond drilling.


MANITOBA NICKEL PROPERTY


Cream has a 30,000-hectare mineral lease in northern Manitoba.  The property is entirely covered by unconsolidated tills, alluvial sediments and a thin veneer of Paleozoic sediments below which the geology is believed to consist of rocks belonging to the extension of the Thompson Nickel Belt.  The property adjoins a similar size mineral lease held by ValGold Resources Ltd. ("ValGold").  A ground geophysical survey completed by ValGold on a small portion of its property identified a large magnetic anomaly, which may represent a near flat-lying massive sulphide target.  In the Thompson belt such targets have the potential to host economic concentrations of nickel, copper and platinum group elements.


Cream intends to have the property covered by an airborne geophysical survey in order to further define targets for diamond drill testing.  The survey will include both magnetic and electromagnetic coverage.

KASLO SILVER PROPERTY, BRITISH COLUMBIA


The 4000-hectare Kaslo Silver property is located 12 kilometres west of the town of Kaslo in southeastern British Columbia.  The property encompasses the historic Keen Creek Silver belt and includes ten former high-grade silver mines that operated on the property from 1895 to 1953.  Historical records show that silver grades ranged from 100 to 5,000 grams per tonne.


Subject to financing, Cream plans to collect a 5,000 to 10,000 tonne bulk sample from each of Silver Bear and Cork South and have them processed at a nearby mill.  It is expected that the value of the metals recovered from the program would pay the cost of sampling and recovery.  


All planned exploration activity is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain financing.

BAYONNE AQUAMARINE PROPERTIES


Cream has the right and option to earn 100% interest in the Bayonne Aquamarine properties by making payments totalling $100,000 and issuing 500,000 common shares over four years as follows: Cash payments of $5,000 on regulatory approval (paid), $5,000 at the end of six months, $10,000 at the end of 12 months, and $20,000, $30,000 and $30,000 at the end of 24, 36 and 48 months respectively, from the date of regulatory approval.  Share payments include 100,000 common shares upon regulatory approval (issued) and each twelve-month interval thereafter to a total of 500,000 common shares.  A royalty is payable consisting of a 2% Net Products Return ("NPR") Royalty from the production of gemstones from the property.  Cream has the right to reduce the NPR to 1.0% by the payment of $1,000,000 to the Optionor at any time up to and including the commencement of commercial production.


Geological Setting


Currently, the deposits are covered by five claim groups: Lloyds Mine (4 units), OMG (14 units), Cultus (2 units), Rusty (4units) and Toby (12 units) for a total of 36 units or 900 hectares.  Additional staking is in progress to cover the prospective ground.  The beryl/aquamarine deposits are at or near the eastern and southern contacts of the Shaw Creek Intrusive (Unit KBSC), one of the eight divisions of the Cretaceous/Jurassic bayonne batholith.  The deposits occur mainly in the pegmatites, which intrude either the KBSC division of the batholith or contact rocks intruded by that division.  The intrusive rock is termed by Reeser (1996) as biotite leucogranodiorite with megacrysts of potassium feldspar.  The pegmatites are composed mainly of coarse crystals of quartz, feldspar, biotite and beryl.  Access to most of the properties is by road with short hikes, but some areas require helicopter transport.


Recommendations


Dr. Joseph Montgomery, geological consultant to the Company, recommends that the presence of large crystals of green and blue beryl over a wide area and the presence of one crystal of gem quality aquamarine is sufficient to warrant an exploration program over the areas in which the beryl-bearing pegmatites occur along the intrusive contact of Shaw Creek granodiorite.  The preliminary program should consist of geological mapping and geochemical surveys for beryllium and chromium.  Anomalies may be evaluated with follow-up trenching.


Cream recently commenced a fieldwork program consisting of a geological crew mapping and sampling crystals throughout the property.

GOLDSMITH PROPERTY


Cream entered into an option agreement to acquire the Goldsmith property consisting of 14 mineral units in three (3) mineral claims, located near Kaslo, British Columbia.  The option allows Cream to obtain a 100% interest in and to the property by making payments to the Optionors of $110,000 ($2,500 paid) and issuing 200,000 common shares (50,000 issued) over a six-year period.  Upon fulfilling the above obligations, Cream will hold a 100% interest in the Property subject only to a 2.0% Net Smelter Return royalty ("NSR").  Cream has the right to reduce the NSR to 1.0% by payment of $1,000,000 to the Optionors at any time up to and including the commencement of commercial production.


The Goldsmith property was initially staked in 1903 when rich gold bearing quartz veins were discovered by placer miners working on Poplar Creek, which runs through the northwest corner of the property and flows into the Lardeau River.


The property is underlain by carbonaceous phyllitic rocks of the Index Formation, which are cut by Mesozoic metadiorite dikes.  Numerous, irregular quartz veins are associated with the intrusive rocks and can carry very high quantities of free gold.  Gold content is irregular within the veins and smaller veins appear to be of higher grade than the larger ones.  Westmin Resources last worked the area in 1980 and 1981 and discovered an extensive gold soil anomaly on the Property.  Cream plans to investigate this anomaly along with prospecting and trenching in preparation for diamond drill testing.


LUCKY JACK PROPERTY


Cream entered into an option agreement to acquire the Lucky Jack Claim Group property consisting of six (6) mineral claims, located near Kaslo, British Columbia.  The Lucky Jack Claim Group is adjacent to the Goldsmith Property and shares the same history and geology.  The option allows Cream to obtain a 100% interest in and to the Property by making payments to the Optionor of $110,000 ($5,000 paid) and issuing 200,000 common shares (50,000 issued) over a six-year period.  Upon fulfilling the above obligations, Cream will hold a 100% interest in the Property subject only to a 2.0% NSR.  Cream has the right to reduce the NSR to 1.0% by payment of $1,000,000 to the Optionor at any time up to and including the commencement of commercial production.


A detailed exploration program is being planned on the Goldsmith and Lucky Jack properties, subject to the Company obtaining sufficient financing.


MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements of Cream Minerals Ltd. ("Cream") for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, and related notes thereto.  Cream's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.  


Overview


Cream is a mineral exploration company with no producing properties and consequently has no current operating income or cash flow.  All of Cream's short to medium-term operating and exploration cash flow must be derived from external financing.  Cream is in the process of attempting to raise additional financing to complete its proposed exploration programs for fiscal 2004.  


Cream's accounting policy is to capitalize all costs relating to the acquisition, exploration and development of its mineral property interests until the property to which they relate is placed into production, sold, allowed to lapse or abandoned.  As at June 30, 2003, Cream has capitalized $584,348 (June 30, 2002 - $1,378,728) on the acquisition and exploration of mineral property interests.


Effective January 1, 2003, Cream commenced paying Lang Mining Corporation ("Lang Mining"), a private company owned by the president of Cream, a fee of $2,500 per month for the services of the President and Chairman of the Company.  These services are not provided through LMC Management Services Ltd. ("LMC").


Effective August 1, 2001, Cream has contracted its management, administrative, geological and other services to LMC, a private company held with a group of other public companies, to provide services on a full cost recovery basis to the various public companies currently sharing office premises.


Financing Activities and Capital Expenditures


During the three months ended June 30, 2003 ("June 2003"), Cream expended $24,422 on acquisition costs and $42,077 on exploration and development costs on the Nuevo Milenio, Raven, Bayonne, Goldsmith and Lucky Jack properties compared to $nil on acquisition costs and $34,620 on exploration and development costs in the three months ended June 30, 2002 ("June 2002"), which were expended primarily on the Nuevo Milenio property.  


Financial Constraints


All of Cream's short to medium-term operating and exploration cash flow must be derived from external financing.  As discussed below, Cream is in the process of attempting to raise additional financing to complete its proposed exploration programs for fiscal 2004.  In the event that market conditions prevent Cream from receiving external financing, Cream will be forced to review its property holdings and prioritize project exploration to fit within cash availability.  Cream's primary exploration focus is currently on the Nuevo Milenio property in Mexico and the Goldsmith, Lucky Jack and Bayonne Aquamarine properties in British Columbia.  



CREAM MINERALS LTD.

Quarterly Report

June 30, 2003

 

With respect to its Kaslo Silver property, which was written down to a nominal carrying value of $1 in the year ended March 31, 2003, Cream had planned a $3 million exploration program that would include geological mapping, expanded geophysical surveys, gravity surveys, additional soil sampling and 12,100 meters of diamond drilling and bulk sampling over existing zones and new targets, on the Black Bear, Black Fox and Ben Hur areas of the property.  This program is contingent on obtaining additional financing.  


During the year ended March 31, 2001, Cream acquired three mining lots in the State of Nayarit, Mexico, by denouncement (the Nuevo Milenio property).  In Mexico, tax payments are due in January and July of each year for all mineral property concessions.  These payments escalate and are indexed for all exploration permits.  To date, Cream has made all required tax payments, including the payment made in July 2003.  The Company has an additional drilling and exploration program planned for the Nuevo Milenio property of $250,000.  This program is contingent on obtaining financing.  


Cream has made all the share issuances and cash payments on its current mineral property interests, other than the payments due on the Raven property, on which the optionors have agreed to an indefinite deferral.  


The Company's ability to continue in operation is dependent on the continuing support of its creditors and funding from related parties, and the Company's ability to secure additional financing.  While it has been successful in securing additional financing in the past, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future.  Accordingly, these financial statements do not reflect adjustment to the carrying value of assets and liabilities and balance sheet classifications that would be necessary if going concern assumptions were not appropriate.  Some adjustments could be material and there is significant doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.


Current assets decreased to $26,356 in June 2003 as compared to $36,813 in June 2002.  The Company is unable to meet its current commitments of $256,043 (March 31, 2003 - $502,430) from existing cash balances.  Due to its inability to meet its financial commitments, and the reliance on the Company's major shareholder for financial support, and to improve the working capital position of the Company, 2,209,256 common shares were issued to three related parties at a price of $0.15 per share in the three months ended June 30, 2003, in settlement of indebtedness in the amount of $331,389.

Office and administrative expenses decreased from $21,751 in June 2001 to $3,495 in June 2002, reflecting the reduced activity.  Shareholder communications and travel and conferences increased from $1,150 and $nil, respectively, in June 2001 to $8,641 and 3,632, respectively, in June 2002, partly due to increased exchange and filing fees.  Salaries and benefits increased from $12,179 in June 2001 to $14,477, which includes a portion of stock option compensation of $7,234 incurred in the quarter.  The stock option compensation is a non-cash expense.  Stock option compensation totals $7,234 in June 2002, with no comparable expense in June 2001.  There were no investor relations' consultants under contract in fiscal 2003.  Additional costs of $600 incurred in the quarter relating to the Raven mineral project were written off.
