EXPLANATORY NOTE


This Amendment No. 1 (the Amendment) to the Current Report on Form 8-K, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 3, 2013 (the “Original Filing”), is filed solely for the purpose of adding the “forward looking statement” legend and amending Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement to correct the shareholder’s interest in the Company and add information about the Conveyed Property (as defined in the Original Filing).

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS


There are statements in this current report that are not historical facts and constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These forward looking statements can be identified by use of terminology such as "believe," "potential," "may," "will,” and similar expressions.  You should be aware that these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control, such as the volatility in mineral resources markets, economically insufficient mineralized material, fluctuations in extraction and production costs, and inability to raise capital to continue operations.  For a complete discussion of risks, you should refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, especially Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors.  Although management believes that the assumptions underlying the forward looking statements included in this current report are reasonable, they do not guarantee our future performance, and actual results could differ from those contemplated by these forward looking statements.  The assumptions used for purposes of the forward-looking statements specified in the following information represent estimates of future events and are subject to uncertainty as to possible changes in economic, legislative, industry, and other circumstances.  As a result, the identification and interpretation of data and other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from and among reasonable alternatives require the exercise of judgment.  To the extent that the assumed events do not occur, the outcome may vary substantially from anticipated or projected results, and, accordingly, no opinion is expressed on the achievability of those forward-looking statements.  In the light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the results and events contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this current report will in fact transpire.  You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their dates.  We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements.


Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.


Material Terms of the Agreement


On June 3, 2013, Joshua Gold Resources Inc. (the “Company”) entered into and closed a mineral property acquisition agreement (the “Agreement”) with Midnight Capital Corp., an entity formed under the laws of Canada (“MCC”), pursuant to which MCC agreed to sell to Company an undivided one hundred percent (100%) interest in and to certain mineral interests consisting of six (6) staked land claims located in the Townships of Neville and St. Louis, Ontario, Canada (the “Neville Property Claims”).  As consideration for the sale of the Neville Property Claims, the Company paid One and No/100 Dollars (CDN $1) and issued 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  As of the date of this filing, CDN $1 is approximately USD $0.97.

Scott Keevil is the president and sole shareholder of MCC.  Mr. Keevil is also the beneficial owner of 3,666,667 shares, representing a 4.63% beneficial ownership interest in the Company immediately prior to the closing of the Agreement.


The description of the Agreement above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.


Description of Cree Lake Property Claims


Mineral rights were acquired at the Neville Property Claims through claim staking.  The claims are an area of open Crown land or Crown minerals rights that a licensed prospector marked out with a series of claim posts and blazed lines.  The mining claims were staked in square or rectangular share with boundaries running north, south, east and west astronomically.  Claim posts are erected at the corner of each mining claim, and claim boundaries between each post are marked by blazes cut into trees and by cut underbrush.  Claim corner post tags identify the individual claim number are affixed by nails to each corner post.


The Ontario Mining Act authorizes the staking of mineral claims (such as those claims comprising the Conveyed Property) where the Crown owns the minerals and the carrying out of assessment/exploration work on the mining claims by the claim holder.  The mineral claims comprising the Neville Property Claims are exploration claims only and allow for the carrying out of assessment/exploration work on the claims by the claim holder.  Mining (i.e. extraction of the minerals) cannot take place until the claims are brought to lease.  Mining leases are issued for the express purpose of undertaking mineral development or mining. The claim holder is entitled to a lease upon fulfilling the requirements of the Mining Act. Currently, the Company is the holder of the mineral rights to the Neville Property Claims, and the Crown is the holder of the surface rights.


Upon recording of the mineral claims with the provincial mining recorder’s office, the claims will remain good standing for a period of two years. The claims can be renewed by performing the minimum specified assessment work within 2 years of the recording date for the claim. Specifically, the claims will remain in good standing due to assessment work completed by previous claim owners until 2014.


The property is referred to as the Neville Property Claims and the identifying claim information is provided below:

Summary of Known Rock Formations, Previous Operations, and Believed Mineralization at the Neville Property Claims


The rock formations on the Neville Property Claims are predominantly composed of Early Archean supracrustal rocks, dominantly of greenschist facies metamorphic rank and are deformed by an east-southeast trending syncline or synclinorium.  These rocks are part of larger belt of greenschist metamorphic rocks referred to as the Swayze Greenstone Belt, which is the southwestern extension of the prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt that is host to several world-class mining camps.


Locally, rock formations strike generally at 300 degrees and dip steeply to the southwest.  Rocks within the central claim area are predominantly composed of tholeiitic metavolcanics that structurally vary from massive to foliated flows. Quartz veins or “pods” within flow units are common.  Bordering the tholeiitic metavolcanics along southwest boundary of the property are calc-alkalic metavolcanics frequently containing quartz veins and felsic lapilli.


Bordering the tholeiitic metavolcanics to the northeast are the Late Archean orthogneissic rocks of the Kenogamissi Granitic Complex.  These rocks are quite heterogeneous and are of amphibolite metamorphic rank.  Numerous batholiths and plutons of tonalite, granodiorite and granitic composition are found with the complex.  The complex was emplaced into the greenstone rocks of the Swayze belt as a dome and caused a deformation aureole of severe flattening and recumbent folding.  It is within these highly strained rocks that the gold mineralization of the Chester Mine and Cote Lake Deposit of Iamgold, located immediately south of the Neville Property Claims.


The Neville Claims are presently without known mineral reserves and the proposed work program is exploratory in nature.  A map of the property is provided below:
