ROB MCEWEN INVITES INVESTORS
TO US GOLD’S AGM IN TORONTO ON JUNE 11, 2009
1 KING WEST HOTEL, GRAND BANKING HALL AT 4:00 pm EASTERN
Dear Investor,
Rob McEwen, Chairman and CEO of US Gold, invites you to attend the Company’s 2009 Annual Meeting! Rob will be providing shareholders and interested individuals an update on US Gold’s activities and his outlook for gold.
US Gold has a lot to talk about this year! The Company’s gold resources in Nevada’s prolific Cortez Trend are growing in size and importance. El Gallo, a new high-grade silver discovery in Mexico, is near surface, close to mining infrastructure and rapidly expanding. In addition, the Company’s recent financing has given it one of the strongest balance sheets in the exploration sector.
The meeting will be held in the Grand Banking Hall at 1 King West Hotel in downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Doors will open at 3:30 pm Eastern. Directions can be found by clicking on the following: http://www.usgold.com/news/pdf/usgold_agm_invite_2009.pdf.
Sincerely,
Rob McEwen | |
