Golden Minerals Company

Everybody,

Since I have purchased shares in AUMN and I live in Colorado, I will be going to the shareholders meeting in Golden on 8/30. Be sure I will be listening and taking notes, and if anyone has anything specific they want me to discuss, please LMK. Also, if anyone else from this board is planning on being there, please PM me and we can meetup while you're in town.

Also, I spoke this Jerry Danni for a bit this morning. For what it's worth, he said that they are chomping at the bit (my words) to start to market this newco starting 9/2, as there is a lot to tell to the world. I mentioned that I was very supportive of the new entity as ECU has the massive resource and AUMN has the $ to exploit it.

All the best
