Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
On May 18, 2012, Golden Minerals Company issued a press release reporting its resource estimate for its Velardeña operations. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The attached press release has been corrected to reflect in the paragraph below the measured, indicated and inferred resource table on page 1 the correct cut off grade of a net smelter ratio of $120.00 per tonne, rather than $120.000 per troy ounce as stated in the press release when originally issued..
The information in this Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
