Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On March 19, 2012, American Strategic Minerals Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an agreement with California Gold Corp. (“California Gold”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to provide California Gold with a geological review (the “Report”) on or prior to March 30, 2012, of the Company’s Bull Canyon and Martin Mesa properties pursuant to which California Gold may determine and identify the approximate locations and scope of geologic formations that could contain potential gold deposits on these properties.

In consideration for delivery of the Report, California Gold agreed to pay the Company $125,000, which payment may, at the election of California Gold, be paid in cash or in unregistered shares of California Gold common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “California Gold Common Stock”), issued by California Gold.  In the event that California Gold elects to deliver the California Gold Common Stock, it shall deliver such number of shares of California Gold Common Stock that shall be equal to the number which results from dividing $125,000 by the lesser of: (i) the closing price of a share of the California Gold Common Stock as quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board on March 19, 2012 or (ii) the purchase price per share of California Gold Common Stock paid by investors in California Gold sold in California Gold’s next financing, if any, on or before March 30, 2012.
