      <title>[Industry Bulletin] Gold In The Ground For As Low as $25/oz (Incl. Infrastructure!) In Some Cases</title>

      <description>
        <![CDATA[<p>When you see viable gold producers selling at infrastructure value and less, with prices sometimes below any level yet seen in this gold bull to date you have to sit up and take a hard look. The gold price in AUD is currently $975 and for your reference I am referring to companies with a cash cost of around $500 per ounce or better. The emerging producers have reached such bazaar &ldquo;la la land&rdquo; valuations that you are effectively buying ounces of gold in the ground for as low as $25 with infrastructure thrown in for free in some cases.</p>
<p>The following five year chart illustrates how far these stocks have fallen.</p>
<p align="left"><img src="http://www.kitco.com/ind/Charnock/images/jul232008_1.jpg" /></p>
<p>As you see the RSI above is below the 25 level (black circle) for the first time in five years which is proof that this is a deeply over sold sector. Note: the Australian XGD (gold index) is weighted and dominated by the heavy weight gold miners and this tends to hide the true state of the rest of the sector. Thanks to Nick Laird at Sharelynx for this chart series which are available for reference at the Gold Index page in GoldOz and in much greater depth / variety at Nicks site.</p>
<p>Looking back gold was $US 347 back at the beginning of this chart but more importantly the AUD gold price was $533 at that time (at 65c to the USD). This provided little room for profit margin for most companies.</p>
<p>Cost of production at $500 provided a $33 margin which was not exactly robust or safe to invest in. The lending institutions insisted on hedge books and stock prices were poor. Things have changed dramatically and even with a new cost of $600 per ounce there is now a margin of $AUD375 an ounce which is over 11x the $33 margin of 5 years ago in this example. This example of a new indicative profit margin is now wide enough to provide a safe margin for a reasonable variation of price and cost.</p>
<p>There is another significant factor at play on the positive side. These mining operations have been making great strides in terms of understanding their ore bodies and ground positions. They have also made great progress in improving the JORC (Australian reporting standard) status of their resources. Then you have to consider the operational improvements along with key operational stages which are advancing. By this I refer to movement from development ore to stoping (underground mining method) operations with a corresponding increase in volume and grade. It also means a shift from open pit to underground ore in other cases. As production increases for these smaller stocks their own leverage to the gold price escalates as unit costs are lowered and capacity to unlock hidden resources is liberated by the additional cash flow.</p>
<p>I have long stated that the business of mining is quite separate to the trading that occurs in the shares in these stocks. This has not been as obvious for several years as it is right now. Many investors have written to me asking why the price of companies are not reflecting the current price of gold - so the best way to cover this is to put my answer in an article for anybody to read.</p>
<p>Share transactions are essentially a derivative of the business of mining. The ownership shares in these stocks fluctuate on news, sentiment and aggregate perception of future or current earnings. Therefore fundamental analysis is not the only answer &ndash; hence the current lack of correlation to the gold price. Technical analysis is not the only answer either and especially for smaller turn over circumstances. For T/A to be more accurate you need large volume in the same manner that predictive statistics used in surveys need population size to get a more accurate picture.</p>
<p>Many of these smaller producers do not have large cash reserves or highly solid balance sheets however they do have cash cover and prudent management with a clear understanding of risk management and how to run on the &ldquo;smell of an oily rag&rdquo; &ndash; cheaply. They have had to be savvy to survive and grow their businesses. Many have greater potential than most investors can imagine due to two important factors &ndash; leverage and organic growth off a low base. Much easier to get a ten bagger out of a perfectly sound stock with a market cap of $40M - $100M that has all these right elements going forward. Links to editorials that link to the web sites of two examples of this type of situation are included at the base of this article however the list is not exhaustive and your own DD is essential.</p>
<p>Sovereign Risk and More on Global Sentiment</p>
<p>You have to be mindful of risk and this is also a lesson learned and repeated over and over by the banking industry over time as they move from over easy credit and greed to restricted credit and fear along with the business cycle. An important aspect of risk is Sovereign Risk which is measured by political stability, business climate and currency / repayment risk. This is not effective as a predictive mechanism however because crisis events manifest quickly even if they do evolve slowly. The Asian and sub prime crisis events are perfect examples of this point.</p>
<p>The mechanism of Sovereign Risk Rating does offer useful comparison on a country to country basis (also across time) and provides an easy to measure quantitative approach to measure safe investing regimes. However such rating systems can also be over simplistic and the weightings of the various factors do not necessarily reflect their individual influence on risk. This is not to invalidate this rating process &ndash; merely to recognize its efficacy (or ability to be effective, produce the desired result).</p>
<p>A combination of many of these types of analysis however can be combined to form a more useful and accurate picture of Country risk and potential compatibility for your hard earned investment capital. From an institutional risk rating system in 2007 - a score of 1 being the highest ranking down to 100 being the lowest - Australia scored a rank of 18 which was highly credible.</p>
<p>Australia also has asset backing in terms of our mineral wealth which is comforting, like a strong company balance sheet &ndash; and an optimum A1 Coface Credit Rating for 2008 which is the top rating. Another index that essentially measures the integration or interface of a Country into the global market place is called the Globalization Index and Australia ranks highly again at 13th in the world.</p>
<p>On a Competitive Scale Index Australia ranked 12th in the world and in terms of doing business here the World Bank rates us at 9th from the top position. An Economic Freedom Index rated Australia at number 4 ahead of the USA, Canada, Chile, Switzerland, the UK and Singapore. The UNDP Human Development Index which essentially measures quality of life and purchasing power parity rated Australia at number 3 in the world only behind Iceland and Norway. Source: MH Bouchet / Ceram &ndash; Global Finance.</p>
<p>Australia is a great place to live in and invest capital by all of these standards and this is why I absolutely question the validity of the international investment sentiment in our gold and broader mining industry at present, particularly the mid cap and emerging gold producers.</p>
<p>As corporate activity, technology and resource demand continue to shrink the meaning of sovereign boundaries between nations we will gradually move towards equilibrium of all sorts of things. The financial world moves the fastest (usually) and I refer to international stock markets following the Dow, banking regulations, broad contagion of sentiment particularly, even fashion and diet (and weight problems) as the Corporate machine moves forward towards One World.</p>
<p>Of course resources are internationally priced, varied only by exchange rates and price rises in commodities have outpaced any and all currency strength as a trend and I for one believe this trend will continue. Equities have been out of favor and financial conditions precipitated by the sub prime debacle have forced stocks out of many weak or unfortunate hands. This is going to be regretted as the savvy have accumulated the soon to be coveted Australian precious metals sector.</p>
<p>What to do and how to do it &ndash; and  when?</p>
<p>I cannot predict the beginning of this event for you at this time although I do currently see signs of absolute bottom for many of these stocks &ndash; the rally is getting closer and it will most likely start with mini waves. For the less able, financial and or risk tolerant you may wish to wait and watch for confirmation of the turn over the coming weeks or months. You will miss the powerful leverage gained from being the first on the scene which can only be enjoyed by the liberated true contrarian.</p>
<p>From experience I notice that this current share price behavior is just now beginning to resemble pre-rally traits. Stronger mornings led by pull backs to early morning levels and mixed cross sections of rises sufficient to notice that all is no longer falling. This went on for several weeks at this time of the year in years gone by &ndash; years that eventuated in strong rallies. But the question is what do you have to do to find the right investments?</p>
<p>You have to get data and do the research &ndash; there are many sources of this type of data and we cover Australia as a specialty. We have been busy preparing a treat for our public visitors and subscribers, both extant and new over the past few weeks and many will not have noticed due to the lack of interest in this sector &ndash; a good sign actually.</p>
<p>You have to have a broad knowledge of the sector. We have created a guide to the Australian mining industry by grouping the key producers that specialize in gold, the developers of new mines and the leading explorers into separate pages at the site. A separate page lists many of the more advanced companies involved in PGM and silver activities. This investment research tool also links to stock prices for international investors or those that want a simple Company guide and access to share price data.</p>
<p>You have to understand the currency implications of your investment. We have also added currency conversion facilities to assist offshore investors to evaluate value in terms of their own currency. You have to understand the ground positions of Companies and profitability of the operations so we created a monster mines guide and links to Australian mining authorities for deeper research.</p>
<p>We added links to Australian brokers and other educational sites including the international gold sites that have done so much to inform about and alert investors to this bull market to date. We are all (gold industry writers, miners, analysts) working hard to bring you the message and cover the topics and provide prudent analysis.</p>
<p>We will be locking many of the more specialized pages away for the eyes of subscribers only in the near future as we add greater levels of data but for now it is all accessible and free. Readers at this site are welcome to stop by and search through our resources if they wish. Global financial conditions are still in favor of gold, silver, PGM&rsquo;s, new cleaner energy solutions and all commodities.</p>
<p>Good trading / investing.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p><strong>MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - June 26, 2008) - Golden Tag Resources Ltd (TSX VENTURE:GOG)</strong> is pleased to announce encouraging results in recent diamond drilling on the Lingo Gold Occurrence on the Aquilon Main Gold Property in James Bay, Quebec. The outcropping, high grade gold-bearing vein was tested with tight grid pattern (approx. 10 x 10 metre centres) of 47 shallow, vertical holes over a strike length of 100 metres and down its shallow dip (30&ordm;NNE) for 90 metres. Assays returned grades of up to:<br /><br /><strong>- 3,230.89 grams gold per tonne (g/T Au) over 0.80 metres (m) (94.23 ounces gold per ton over 2.62 feet), including,<br /><br />- 12,906.5 g/T Au over 0.20 m. (376.44 ounces gold per ton over 0.65 feet).</strong><br /><br />The very high gold intersection contained 7 to 10% visible gold similar to visible gold samples returned in surface trenching and drilling conducted by Sirios Inc. and SOQUEM INC. in 2002. Drilling confirms the very high grade mineralization plunges down-dip, shallowly to the north-northeast. At least 12 other gold occurrences are known on the property within the Wolf Lake Shear zone, a 300 metre wide, east-trending shear zone which has been mapped for 5 kilometres across the property. None of these occurrences have been tested in this manner with closely-spaced grid drilling.<br /><br />Golden Tag Resources acquired a two stage option on the Aquilon Main property in 2003; initially to earn a 40% interest in the project with a second option to earn into an overall 60% interest. Golden Tag has now met work commitments and is in a position to vest in the first option. The Company is now reviewing these results in conjunction with all prior exploration results from the property to identify a clear approach for future exploration and vesting in the property.<br /><br />Over twenty gold-bearing intersections with composite assay values of more than 2.0 g/t Au have been returned from the program, Table 1. High grade intersections from Table 1 include:</p>
<p><img src="http://www.agoracom.com/agoraimages/GOGAquilonAssay.jpg" height="263" width="504" /></p>
<p>The 2008 diamond drill program consisted of 47 NQ holes (Fig. 1) totalling 1,074 meters. Drilling tested the Lingo gold occurrence at relatively shallow depths (4.3 to 60 m) on a close grid pattern of vertical holes to trace the mineralized quartz vein from surface trenches to a vertical depth of 30 m. The high grade gold-bearing zone has a strike length of 10 to 20 metres and plunges NE to NNE. Mineralization is considered open at depth. Mineralization is characterized by the presence of visible gold in narrow (less than 1.0m) quartz &plusmn; carbonate veins hosted in sericitized and silicified felsic volcanic rocks. The veins have very low sulphide content.<br /><br />Mapping and prior exploration of the property has identified at least 8 high grade gold occurrences along the East-West trend of the Wolf Lake Shear zone, including the recent discovery of the Red Toad Showing on its' eastern margin by Golden Tag (see Press Release: July 24, 2004). Quartz veining at Lingo is persistent along strike and beyond the limits of the current program of drilling.<br /><br />The very high grade assay interval of 3,230.89 g/T Au over 0.80 m in hole AQ-08-06 includes a reported value of 12,906.5 g/T Au over 0.20 m (376.44 ounces gold per ton over 0.65 feet). The later value is considered a MINIMUM value for this interval of core. The interval contains 7 to 10% visible gold as pinpoints, specks and blebs measuring up to 4 mm by 9 mm within a coarse-grained quartz vein (true width 12 cm). The sample was assayed by screened analysis. Assays of both fine (414 grams in weight) and coarse fractions (17 grams in weight) returned the upper limit assay of this method, 10,000 ppm Au. Reassaying of the fine fraction only by concentrate gold method returned 12 906.5 g/T Au. The original coarse fraction is destroyed in the screen analysis and could not be reassayed. Because of the nature of the sample, the coarse fraction can be assumed to have contained more than this reported grade.<br /><br /><strong>Assay Method and Quality Control</strong><br /><br />A total of 706 half drill core samples were collected, split in half, and one half sent to a commercial laboratory for analysis and other half retained for future reference. A strict QA/QC program was followed which included mineralized standards and blanks for each batch of samples. Analytical services were provided by ALS-Chemex, Val d'Or, Quebec.<br /><br />Significant assay results were also duplicated at the laboratory. Samples were prepared using standard preparation procedures used by ALS-Chemex. Samples were assayed by fire assay with atomic absorption spectrometry finish on a 50 grams nominal sample weight, giving a lower limit of detection of 0.005 ppm and an upper limit of detection of 10 ppm (10 g/T Au). Samples yielding greater than10 ppm were re-assayed using fire assay and gravimetric finish, giving a lower limit of detection of 0.05 ppm and an upper limit of detection of 1000 ppm. Samples showing visible gold, or where initial fire assays with result exceeding 5 ppm, were analysed with metallic screen assays and fire assay. The entire sample was pulverized and screen to 100-micron. The metallic sieve assay gives a lower limit of detection of 0.05 ppm and an upper limit of detection of 10,000 ppm. The very high grade gold sample was assayed by concentrate gold method of analysis.<br /><br />The diamond drilling program was conducted under the supervision of Mr David Rigg, P.Geo. and CEO of the Company and Mr Roger Moar, Consulting Geologist, P.Geol.; Qualified Persons under National Instrument 43-101 guidelines. Both have reviewed and verified the technical content of this press release.<br /><br />Golden Tag Resources Ltd. is a junior exploration company actively exploring for high grade gold and silver deposits at the San Diego silver-lead-zinc project in Durango State, Mexico; the Aquilon gold project in James Bay, Quebec; and the McCuaig gold project in Red Lake, Ontario.<br /><br />Golden Tag is a member of the Agoracom Investor Relations group at: <a href="http://www.agoracom.com/IR/goldentag" target="_blank"><span style="color: #cc0000;">www.agoracom.com/IR/goldentag</span></a>.<br /><br />To be added to the investor e-mail list, please send to<br /><a href="mailto:gog@agoracom.com" target="_blank"><span style="color: #cc0000;">gog@agoracom.com</span></a><br /><br />Statements in the release that are "forward-looking statements" are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties.

        <![CDATA[<p style=""><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - June 23, 2008) - Golden Tag Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:GOG) ("Golden Tag") and ECU Silver Mining Inc. (TSX:ECU) ("ECU") are pleased to report results from two holes, SD-07-24 and SD-08-33, that were recently completed as part of the exploration program at the jointly held San Diego Property in Durango State, Mexico. Results from hole SD-08-33 are considered the most encouraging results reported to date from the property and suggest potential for the discovery of a deep seated massive sulphide replacement (Mantos-type) deposit.<br /><br />Mantos-type sulphide deposits can form massive sulphide lenses representing major sources of precious and base metals in a high-grade, high tonnage ratio. These deposits are interpreted to form in carbonate-rich rocks, like limestone, at the contact of a hot intrusive body where the limestone/marble host rock is replaced by metal-bearing solutions. A similar environment was extensively mined by Grupo Mexico at the near-by Santa Maria deposit.<br /><br />Our latest exploration results suggest that we encountered an environment having several similarities with Mantos-type deposits. The objective of our next drilling phase will be to test the continuity of this type of mineralization at depth.</span></p>

<p style=""><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="">                  </span><br />Highlights from hole SD-08-33 are:<br style="" /><br style="" /></span></span></p>
<p style=""><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style=""> <img src="http://www.agoracom.com/agoraimages/GOGJune23SanDiegoTable.jpg" height="382" width="473" />         </span></span></span><br /><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Detailed results from the holes with true widths and Silver Equivalent grades are reported in Table 1.<br /><br />Hole SD-08-33 was drilled from the south portion of the property to follow-up on previously reported holes SD-07-20 and 07-22 (see press release of April 7, 2008) and test the Montanez Zones, Cantarranas and SD Veins. The environment of mineralization intersected in hole SD-08-33 includes two semi-massive and massive sulphides zones located along favourable diorite/marble contacts, with associated sulphide replacement of adjacent marbles. One of these zones can be linked to the Cantarranas Vein and the Ag-Vein Zone, where they appear to be merging at depth; whereas the other zone (Contact Zone) is a new structure located further to the north and once again associated to a diorite/marble contact.<br /><br />Hole SD-07-24 was a step-out hole behind hole SD-07-10 to follow-up on:<br /><br />- a near surface oxide zone - called the "Oxi-Zone" - that had previously returned high silver grades of up to 969 g/t Ag over 0.45 m and 627 g/t Ag over 0.95 m and,<br /><br />- to intersect the La Cruz Vein at depth.<br /><br />Drill results confirm the extension of the La Cruz Vein structure to depths of 500 m below surface with an intersection of 1,100 g/t Ag and 2.4 g/t Au over 0.65 m with 12.6% Pb, 6% Zn and 0.6% Cu. Drilling on the Oxi Zone showed that it is located at a diorite/marble interface and follows a conjugate set of fractures with opposing dips (Oxi Zone-A and B). A new geological feature was also intersected at depth and appears to correspond to a redox zone (Reduction-Oxidation front) developed along a narrow, steeply-dipping fault zone with extensive hematite replacement. This redox zone acted as geochemical trap for gold and copper. Assays from this zone returned 5.6 g/t Au over 1.30 m with 1% Cu.<br /><br />The results from current drilling are considered to be the most encouraging results to date from the property. In addition to the 43-101 mineral resources currently identified within several laterally and vertically persistent polymetallic vein sets; drilling has now demonstrated good potential for a deep seated sulphide source capable of generating extensive replacement (Mantos-type) sulphide zones along diorite/marble contacts.<br /><br />The drill section including holes SD-07-20, 07-22 and 08-33 shows that:<br /><br />- Stringer-style mineralization, encountered close to surface in hole SD-07-20, changes with depth into narrow massive sulphide veins, 275 metres vertically below in hole SD-07-33;<br /><br />- Individual zones such as the Ag-Vein Zone and Cantarranas Vein are getting more closely spaced with depth and together define a mineralized envelope with a true thickness of at least 20 metres in hole SD-08-33;<br /><br />- At depths of more than 400 metres, in the eastern sector of the property, deformation gradually changes from a brittle to more ductile style and is associated with increasing development of marble and pervasive silicification.<br /><br />These observations can be linked to hydrothermal activity derived from the hot diorite intrusion coring the centre portion of the property. Massive to semi-massive sulphide zones recently encountered at depth bring further evidences that the system once active at San Diego had the potential to develop massive sulphide lenses of a similar nature to those found in Mantos-type deposit environments. In this larger scale model, the laterally extensive fracture-type veins observed on surface are the actual surface expression of this deep-seated mineralizing activity.<br /><br />In view of the excellent exploration results obtained in the eastern sector of the property, Golden Tag and ECU will now focus on planning additional drilling as part of the Phase 4 exploration campaign. To this effect, the companies have recently signed a 5,000 metre drill contract with Layne de Mexico from Hermosillo that will supply a track-mounted drill designed for deep drilling. Drilling is scheduled to start in early September.<br /><br />As part of this process, the joint-venture partners will continue their review and integration of all results to date in a 3-D MineSight database. All remaining assay results from Phase 3 program will be released as they become available.<br /><br />Golden Tag and ECU Silver concluded their Phase 3 diamond drilling program at the end of March 2008. During this program initiated in October 2007, a total of 16 new holes, with the extension of one prior hole, were completed for a total of 6,655 metres of drilling. There are 9 holes that remained to be reported.<br /><br />Quality Control: The drilling program is supervised by Ms. Kateri Marchand, P.Geo. and is a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101 guidelines and she has confirmed all disclosures in this release. Details of the QA/QC program followed at San Diego are available in previous press releases. Analyses were performed by ALS Chemex accredited assay laboratories of Guadalajara, Hermosillo and Chihuahua (Mexico). Conversion factors used to convert to silver equivalents are shown at bottom of Table 1. Readers are cautioned that until a pre-feasibility study is completed, there are no assurances that these mineralized zones will be economically viable.<br /><br />ECU Silver Mining Inc. is focused on the exploration, development and mining of gold, silver and base metals at its Velardena District Properties in Durango, Mexico. The area includes five historical mines - Santa Juana, Terneras, San Mateo, San Juanes, and the San Diego mine. ECU is defining the "Mineralized Corridor" at Santa Juana and also further defining several higher grade narrow veins within the area. ECU's mission is to become a pre-eminent silver producer through the development of existing, and additional potential resources at Velardena.<br /><br />Golden Tag Resources Ltd. is a junior exploration company actively exploring for high grade gold and silver deposits at the San Diego silver-lead-zinc project in Durango State, Mexico; the Aquilon gold project in James Bay, Quebec; and the McCuaig gold project in Red Lake, Ontario.<br /><br />Golden Tag is a member of the Agoracom Investor Relations group at </span><a href="http://www.agoracom.com/IR/goldentag" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">www.agoracom.com/IR/goldentag</span></a><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">.

        <![CDATA[    	 		 	 	 		 	   			  	<p>MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - May 16, 2008) - Golden Tag Resources Ltd. (&quot;Golden Tag&quot; or the &quot;Company&quot;) (TSX VENTURE:GOG) announced today that its Board of Directors has approved in principle the adoption of a Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement (the &quot;Rights Plan&quot;). The Rights Plan is being adopted to ensure the fair treatment of all Golden Tag shareholders in connection with any possible future take-over bids for the outstanding common shares of Golden Tag. The Rights Plan will provide shareholders with adequate time to properly evaluate and assess a take-over bid without facing undue pressure or coercion.<br /> <br />The Rights Plan also provides the Board with additional time to consider any take-over bid and, if applicable, to explore alternative transactions in order to maximize shareholder value. The Rights Plan is not designed to prevent take-over bids that treat Golden Tag shareholders fairly. Pursuant to the terms of the Rights Plan, any bid that meets certain criteria intended to protect the interests of all shareholders are deemed to be &quot;Permitted Bids&quot;. A Permitted Bid must be made by way of a take-over bid circular prepared in compliance with applicable securities laws and, in addition to certain other conditions, must remain open for 60 days. In the event a take-over bid does not meet the Permitted Bid requirements of the Rights Plan, the rights issued under the plan will entitle shareholders, other than any shareholder or shareholders involved in the take-over bid to purchase additional common shares of Golden Tag at a significant discount to the market price of the common shares at that time. In addition, the Rights Plan includes a &quot;Grandfathered Person&quot; exemption whereby any shareholder who holds greater than 20% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Golden Tag, as of the date of the Rights Plan, is deemed not to be making a take-over bid, nor is a Grandfathered Person making a take-over bid if they increase their pro rata interest by 1% or less of the then outstanding common shares. However, a shareholder will cease to be a Grandfathered Person if that shareholder increases its percentage interest by more than an additional 1% of the then outstanding common shares.<br /> <br />The Rights Plan is not being adopted in response to any formal proposal to acquire control of Golden Tag.<br /> <br />The Rights Plan is subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange and will be presented for ratification by the shareholders at the Golden Tag annual and special meeting. This meeting was originally scheduled for June 25, 2008 but will be re-scheduled in order to allow consideration of a resolution to ratify the Plan. A follow-on announcement will be made in the near future with the new meeting date. If ratified by the shareholders, the Rights Plan will have a term of three years. The Rights Plan is also subject to execution of definitive agreements with the Company's transfer agent.</p>  	<p>The TSX Venture Exchange has not reviewed and does not accept responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of the contents of this release.</p>     <div> 	 	<p><strong>For more information, please contact</strong></p></div><div> 	  	 		Golden Tag Resources LTD.<br />Marc Carrier<br />President<br />514-426-8542<br />514-426-8543  (FAX)<br /><a href="mailto:pres@goldentag.ca" target="_blank">pres@goldentag.ca, </a></div><div> </div><div>or </div><div> </div><div>Agoracom Investor Relations </div><div> </div><div>GOG@agoracom.com </div>]]>

Did not an IPO in a mining company specializing in potash used as a fertilizer open up above its issue price by 58%?</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></p><p style="line-height: normal;"><span>Chemically, potash consists of potassium carbonate, but also might contain potassium oxide or potassium chloride, depending on how pure you consider the mixture. Usually, potash takes the form of powdery salts. Modern methods of extraction almost all rely upon deposits mined from ores, like sylvanite.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></p><p style="line-height: normal;"><span>Nowadays our potash comes from mining and goes toward inorganic fertilizer rich in potassium.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></p><p style="line-height: normal;"><span>Why are other mining entities acting so well, especially those with the following significant products:</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></p><ul><li style="line-height: normal;"><span>Antimony</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span> </li><li style="line-height: normal;"><span>Beryllium</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span> </li><li style="line-height: normal;"><span>Cadmium</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span> </li><li style="line-height: normal;"><span>Chromium</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span> </li><li style="line-height: normal;"><span>Cobalt</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span> </li><li style="line-height: normal;"><span>Manganese</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span> </li><li style="line-height: normal;"><span>PGMs</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span> </li><li style="line-height: normal;"><span>Rhodium</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span> </li><li style="line-height: normal;"><span>Tungsten</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span> </li><li style="line-height: normal;"><span>Vanadium</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></li></ul><p style="line-height: normal;"><span>How about simple iron ore and all those involved in all the criteria of exploration and development of crude oil? That is an extractive industry as is precious metals mining.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></p><p style="line-height: normal;"><span>Your answer may be that gold is different but it is not. You might say others think that gold has topped, but it hasn&rsquo;t.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></p><p style="line-height: normal;"><span>The stimulants economically are the same for potash, iron ore and the other items listed above as it is for gold. It is the growth in Asia, the consequences of the effort to maintain the social order as the financial order implodes, and the condition of the US dollar.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></p><p style="line-height: normal;"><span>Nothing happens by chance but for argument sake lets call it an opportunity to be seized.

You may recall that I suggested to you that one major company would consolidate the industry. Keep that concept in mind. Major gold producers are in need of new production. This is FACT.<br /><br />South African companies are in need of major projects OUTSIDE of the RSA. For the RSA gold producer there is no expansion of reserves in RSA because, even if they have it, they cannot produce it as the energy situation is already stressed beyond demand. This is a long-term problem unfortunately.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></p><p style="line-height: normal;"><span>The major consolidator of the Gold mining industry may have gotten too greedy in waiting for future reserve properties to become ever cheaper and cheaper for acquisition or joint venture.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></p><p style="line-height: normal;"><span>The game being played by design or serendipity is to depress the juniors or to take advantage of the decline in the juniors as a result of the poor share price action through starving the junior or explorer of financing.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></p><p style="line-height: normal;"><span>Depressing the price of the shares of most junior situations results in starving precious metals juniors of financing and their shareholders would be ripe for a bid for the company at a price much lower then their highs when gold was at $600. It may also make the smaller company eager to make deals at less than advantageous conditions for their investors.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"></span></p><p style="line-height: normal;"><span>The key here is that the gold producing industry is in need of new resources as present resources are depleting.

        <![CDATA[<p>Golden Tag Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:GO<wbr/>G) (&quot;Gol<wbr/>den Tag&quot;) and ECU Silver Mining Inc. (TSX:ECU) (&quot;ECU<wbr/>&quot;) are pleased to report additional diamond drill hole results from its exploratio<wbr/>n program at their jointly held San Diego property, Durango State, Mexico.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Partial drill results from recent holes, SD-07-23 and SD-08-26, drilled in the Eastern sector of the property continue to expand mineraliza<wbr/>tion as well as confirm high grade nature of the main Montanez, Cantarrana<wbr/>s Veins and subsidiary<wbr/>, El Jal Veins and Canta-Spla<wbr/>y Vein.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In addition, recent sampling of old workings conducted on the Porvenir Vein confirmed the high grade potential of this vein.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Results from drilling with true widths are reported in Table 1. Highlights from drilling include:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Montanez Vein</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The vein strikes ESE and dips 87 degrees S and is hosted in the Hangingwal<wbr/>l portion of the Montanez Zone. It has been confirmed over a strike length in excess of 600 metres.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>- 1,786 g/t Ag over 1.25 m (SD-08-26) with 6.38% Pb and 4.33% Zn</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Cantarrana<wbr/>s Veins</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The vein strikes E-W and dips 80 degrees S with a confirmed strike length of 400 metres.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>- 1,365 g/t Ag over 0.75 m (SD-08-26) with 21.40% Pb and 6.90% Zn; and,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>- 1,060 g/t Ag over 0.55 m (SD-08-26) with 14.95% Pb and 3.85% Zn</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Canta-Spla<wbr/>y Vein</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This Vein is oriented ENE and dips 80 degrees NW and is confirmed over a strike distance of 350 metres.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>- 620 g/t Ag over 0.75 m (SD-08-23) with 1.73% Pb</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>El Jal Vein</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The Vein trends NE and dips 60 degrees SE with a confirmed strike length of 400 metres.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>- 933 g/t Ag over 0.22 m (SD-08-23) with 5.84% Pb and 1.74% Zn</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And, undergroun<wbr/>d sampling of:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Porvenir Vein</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This Vein, located in the north-east<wbr/>ern corner of the property, is E-W oriented and steeply dipping to the south and can be traced on surface for over 100 metres.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>- 2,012 g/t Ag over 0.12 m with 1 g/t Au, 29.9% Pb and 4.3% Zn</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Results from current drilling continue to be encouragin<wbr/>g for potential resource expansion and lie outside the current area of Resource modelling. The holes confirm:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>- Further extension to the ENE for the Canta-Spla<wbr/>y Vein (SD-08-23)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>- Further extension to 300 m below depth for both the El Jal Vein (SD-08-23) and Cantarrana<wbr/>s Veins (SD-08-26) as well as confirmati<wbr/>on of increasing metal grades with depth;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>- Presence of a very rich silver area within the Montanez Vein (SD-08-26) located only 70 m below surface that can be linked to last year's DDH SD-07-01 and -01A situated 120 metres to the west that respective<wbr/>ly returned grades of 3,680 g/t Ag over 0.75 cm with 7.85% Pb and 10.9% Zn and, 1,395 g/t Ag over 0.55 cm with 14.8% Pb and 8.63% Zn.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>- High grade potential of the Porvenir Vein, an E-W oriented structure (undergrou<wbr/>nd sampling).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The San Diego property hosts a well-devel<wbr/>oped pattern of high-grade Ag-Pb-Zn tabular veins that show persistent continuity both along strike and at depth. At least two main systems of Veins are recognized<wbr/>, an E-W system that includes the Cantarrana<wbr/>s, Rata and SD Veins and, a NW-SE system that includes the Montanez, La Cruz and Trovador Veins. The other veins on the property, the NE trending El Jal Vein and ENE striking Canta-Spla<wbr/>y Vein, are recognized as subsidiary structures<wbr/>. Together, all of these veins represent the surface expression of a deep-seate<wbr/>d epithermal system of mineraliza<wbr/>tion. In some instances, the veins are simple fractures filled with mineralizi<wbr/>ng fluids like the El Jal Vein. In other cases, such as the La Cruz and Montanez, the veins can be associated to fault corridors developed along contact zones between the intrusive rock (diorite/m<wbr/>onzonite) and the hosting limestone. Broader zones of sulphide mineraliza<wbr/>tion offering large tonnage bulk mining potential (see Company press release of March 3, 2008) appear to be related to fracturing and replacemen<wbr/>t near or along the contacts of the intrusive bodies within limestone with skarn alteration and marble contact metamorphi<wbr/>sm.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Informatio<wbr/>n gathered from completion of hole SD-07-26 further suggests that the Cantarrana<wbr/>s Vein would, like La Cruz and Montanez Veins, be associated to a fault corridor (the Grey Fault Zone) located along a diorite/ma<wbr/>rble contact. This broader Cantarrana<wbr/>s structure appears to join with the silver-ric<wbr/>h stringers zone identified in hole SD-07-20 hosting silver grades as high as 4,420 g/t Ag over 0.58 m (see press release of March 3rd, 2008) that is also related to the same diorite/ma<wbr/>rble contact.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Golden Tag and ECU Silver initiated their Phase 3 diamond drilling program in October 2007. A total of 16 holes have been completed to date for a total of 6,650 metres of drilling. Six drill holes have now been reported. Constructi<wbr/>on of a new drill road in the hilly south portion of the property was completed to allow drilling the highly prospectiv<wbr/>e area east of the central Diorite. Hole SD-08-33 was recently completed from this road to follow-up on previously reported holes SD-07-20 and 07-22 and test the Montanez Zones, Cantarrana<wbr/>s and SD Veins. Assay results from Hole SD-08-33 are currently unavailabl<wbr/>e, however, visual observatio<wbr/>ns made on core are very encouragin<wbr/>g. The environmen<wbr/>t of mineraliza<wbr/>tion intersecte<wbr/>d includes semi-massi<wbr/>ve and massive sulphides as vein infill with associated sulphide replacemen<wbr/>t of adjacent marbles; increasing vein widths up to 2 m (core width) and a new mineralize<wbr/>d vein structure at the diorite/ma<wbr/>rble contact.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Visual results from Hole SD-08-33 suggest continued improvemen<wbr/>t in the mineralize<wbr/>d system at depth with strong vertical continuity of the main veins, increasing skarn alteration and contact metamorphi<wbr/>c effects; and potential for more extensive replacemen<wbr/>t sulphide zones at even greater depth along the diorite contacts.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Assay results and visual observatio<wbr/>ns from the most recent drill holes point to the need to conduct deeper drilling. The actual drill rig utilized to complete Phase 3 drilling not being adequate to perform deep holes, the joint-vent<wbr/>ure has decided to end the Phase 3 program after Hole SD-08-33. A minimum 5,000 metre follow-up Phase 4 program utilizing a more proficient drill will be undertaken shortly. In the interim, the joint-vent<wbr/>ure partners will review and integrate Phase 3 results in a 3-D MineSight model to efficientl<wbr/>y structure and develop the deeper Phase 4 program. Assay results from the remaining Phase 3 program will be released when available.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Quality Control:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The drilling program is supervised by Ms. Kateri Marchand, P.Geo. and Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101 guidelines and she has confirmed all disclosure<wbr/>s in this release. Details of the QA/QC program followed at San Diego are available in previous press releases. Analyses were performed by ALS Chemex accredited assay laboratori<wbr/>es of Guadalajar<wbr/>a (Mexico) and Vancouver (Canada) as well as non-certif<wbr/>ied ERSA laboratory of Torreon, Coahuila.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Conversion factors used to convert to silver equivalent<wbr/>s are shown at bottom of Table 1 and 2. Readers are cautioned that until a pre-feasib<wbr/>ility study is completed, there are no assurances that these mineralize<wbr/>d zones will be economical<wbr/>ly viable.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>ECU Silver Mining Inc. is focused on the exploratio<wbr/>n, developmen<wbr/>t and mining of gold, silver and base metals at its Velardena District Properties in Durango, Mexico. The area includes five historical mines - Santa Juana, Terneras, San Mateo, San Juanes, and the San Diego mine. ECU is defining the &quot;Mine<wbr/>ralized Corridor&q<wbr/>uot; at Santa Juana and also further defining several higher grade narrow veins within the area. ECU's mission is to become a pre-eminen<wbr/>t silver producer through the developmen<wbr/>t of existing, and additional potential resources at Velardena.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Golden Tag Resources Ltd. is a junior exploratio<wbr/>n company actively exploring for high grade gold and silver deposits at the San Diego silver-lea<wbr/>d-zinc project in Durango State, Mexico; the Aquilon gold project in James Bay, Quebec; and the McCuaig gold project in Red Lake, Ontario.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Golden Tag is a member of the Agoracom Investor Relations group at <a href="http://www.agoracom.com/IR/goldentag">www.agorac<wbr/>om.com/IR/<wbr/>goldentag</a>.
