Some comments from their filings:
The Life Extension Program will prevent people from getting sick, and therefore will reduce the cost of medical treatments by preventing diseases.
PREVENT...WOW. What a great mining company.

The Company is not now conducting any mining operations, and has no plan to re-open mining operations. The Company has applied for a license in Las Vegas, Nevada to operate a hotel and casino and conduct Life Extension programs.
(SO THE COMPANY HAS $2,000,000,000 worth of equity in reserves and no plans to mine them. Instead their plan is to conduct Life Extension Programs...)

5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Grand American Bank Trust (GABT) owns approximately 60% of the Company's Class "A" common stock as of December 31, 1998.
6. PROVEN GOLD AND SILVER RESERVES The process of estimating mineral reserves is very complex, requiring significant subjective decision in the evaluation of available geological, engineering, and economic data for each reserve. The data for a given reserve may change substantially over time as a result of additional development activity, production under varying economic conditions, etc.
Consequently, material revision to the existing reserve estimates may occur in the future. Although, every reasonable effort was made to ensure that the reserve estimates reported represent the most accurate assessment possible, the significance of the subjective decision required, the variances in the available data for various reserves, make these estimates generally less precise than other estimates in connection with financial disclosure. Proven reserves are estimated quantities of gold and silver which geological and engineering data demonstrate, with reasonable certainty, to be recoverable in future years from known reserves under existing economic and operating conditions.
Stickel and Associates, independent consultants in applied geology, geophysics and engineering, has estimated 7,000,000 troy ounces of gold and 19,000,000 troy ounces of silver. The values of these reserves based on average market prices as of December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 are as follows:
6.
12-31 -98 12-31-97 (Dollars in Thousands)
Gold (7,000,000 troy ounces) @$290.34/troy ounce $2,032,380 @$293/troy ounce $2,051,000
Silver (19,000,000 troy ounces) @$5.945/troy ounce 112,955 @$4.82/troy ounce 91,580
TOTAL $2,142,580 $2,145,335

Minerals Mining and Energy Corp. 7750 E1 Camino Real, Suit K Rancho La Costa, Ca. 92008 Attention: Stewart Douglas, President Subject: Review of Literature and Inspection of Gold Claims in Plumas County, California, Blackhawk, Alan, MMC and Dean Lode Claims Consisting of 750 Acres. References: 1) Geology of the Pulga and Bucks Lake Quadrangles, Butte and Plumas Counties California, USGS Prof. Paper 731, date 1973.
2) Examination and Sampling of the Blackhawk and Sections 13 Claims, Plumas County, California, by Mm. H.Bird, dated June 1, 1976.
3) Bucks Lake Quadrangle, Map, USGS, 1:62,500, date 1950.
Gentlemen: This letter presents our present geological engineering evaluation of the subject gold and silver claims that are located in Plumas County, California.
We visited and inspected the property on April 19, and 20, 1985. The property consists of approximately 750 acres of lode claims with a reported overlying of a few placer claims. The properties lie about 5 and 11 miles directly west of Quincy on the Bucks Lake Road.
The claims are named Blackhawk, Alan, MMC, and Dean. The Blackhawk, Alan and MMC claims lie in Sections 21, 22, and 27 of T24N, R8E. The Dean claims lie in the northwest corner of Section 13, T24N, R8E.
GEOLOGY
These claims lie along the southwest and northwest borders of a northwest trending zone or band of highly fractured peridotite altered to serpentine. Broad fault zones bound the peridotite bodies or bands and there are no indications of heat alterations. There has been no production from hard rock mining, however, significant placer hydraulicking and sluicing has occurred. The placer deposits occur in two periods of erosion, the Present and the Tertiary. Although, concentrations of gold have only been found in the Blackhawk and Dean claims, it does occur scattered throughout the peridotite.
PRESENCE OF GOLD AND SILVER
Reference 2 indicates that there is a conservative 10,000,000 tons of hard rock ore reserves. Rock chip and channel samples were obtained from 10 to 50 foot sections of road cuts and outcrops on these claims and it is reported "consistently assayed high in gold (AU)". The highest gold value was 2.80 oz/ton, however, the overall average was .7 oz/ton. Silver (AG) ranged from a trace to 2.62 oz/ton. These values varied greatly, depending upon the freshness of the outcrop. assays also indicated the presence of platinoid metals.
Total amount of gold and silver in these claims is 7,000,000 oz. of gold and 19,000,000 oz. of silver. These figures were compiled from data presented in Reference 2.
It is reported that during the summer of 1983, approximately $30,000 worth of placer gold was dredged from one of the creeks flowing through the Blackhawk claims. This gold was dredged from an area of the creek about 100 yards long.
