These stock dividends relate to the time when the Company was known as "Great West Gold, Inc."

The Management of this Company is determined to immediately terminate this completely unfounded speculation that the Company did not effect these aforesaid stock distributions as promised. The Management of the Company has tired of various E Mail and telephonic communications accusing the Company of not having completed these Stock Distributions. Our attention has been drawn to various "Internet Stock Chat Forums" where it alleged that the Company did not in fact, effect these stock distributions, as it had promised. This is not the case, we wish to set the record straight on this point. We ask that stockholders contact ourselves directly and not base their decisions upon baseless nonsense written in the majority of these internet chat forum postings.

Stockholders may rest assured that these Stock Dividends were effected, as promised, the Company has previously reported that we are in possession of these complete and accurate stockholder registers for each of these Companies; and that these shares are being held "on book" for and behalf of the eligible Stockholders.

We would ask that stockholders E Mail ourselves at [e-mail], we will then be in a position to clarify their stockholdings in these various companies. All enquiries are to please include the stockholder's full name, address, fax number and telephone number. The telephone or fax number being particularly important as our Investor Relations E Mail responses to stockholder enquiries are very frequently returned to ourselves as undeliverable, primarily as "Spam"; this is causing us further problems in communications with our stockholders and is equally frustrating for both ourselves and for stockholders. We would prefer to be in a position where we could respond to our stockholders either by telephone or by fax, in this event.

The Company understands that stockholders are anxious to get clarification on their holdings given the fact that the Company is now in advanced negotiations to dispose of its interests in the following gold mining exploration properties: "Mockingbird", "Golden Eagle" and "Ambassador".

The Company is also, at this time, in preliminary discussions to dispose of the balance of its Gold Exploration properties; namely "Bouse" and "South Copperstone". Stockholders will be advised accordingly, should these discussions progress to a more serious level however, very commitment. The Company is however, extremely committed to a similar transaction in respect of these properties and as fast as is possible.

The Company owns a majority interest in the "Ambassador", "Golden Eagle", "South Copperstone", "Bouse" and in the "Mockingbird" Gold Mining Exploration properties.

The majority of the balance of the stockholder interests in these Gold Mining Exploration properties; are held by the Company stockholders through various historical stock distributions. All and any sales of these Gold Mining Exploration properties will benefit the minority stockholders in these Gold Mining Exploration projects, on the same basis as the Company.
