2011 Highlights

• On March 10, 2011, the Company completed a short-form prospectus financing of 28.75 million common shares at a price of C$1.40 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds C$40,250,000.
  
• On March 14, 2011, the Company completed its earn-in/option agreement with DynaResource de Mexico S.A. de C.V. (“DynaMexico”) for its 50% equity interest on the San José de Gracia project by reaching the expenditure funding requirement of $18,000,000.
  
• On November 23, 2011, the Company announced an updated Technical Report for the San José de Gracia project, dated effective September 5, 2011, which significantly increased the Company’s mineral resource estimate at San José de Gracia. The estimate includes an indicated resource at Tres Amigos of 913,000 tonnes grading 5.00 grams per tonne gold, or 147,000 ounces of gold, and an aggregate inferred resource at all four veins of 5,813,000 tonnes grading 5.16 grams per tonne gold, or 963,000 ounces of gold, representing an increase of 56% from the last mineral resource estimate.
  
• On October 14, 2011, the Company acquired the remaining 30% interest in the Caballo Blanco project held previously by Almaden Minerals Ltd. Goldgroup now owns 100% of the Caballo Blanco project.

The inferred mineral resource estimate summed to 419,000 ounces of gold (24.0 million tonnes grading 0.54 g/t Au).
