Many
of our shareholders are asking what we are doing to let the world
know about Santa Fe Gold Corporation. Here are a few of the most
recent activities being used to get out our story:
Over
the airwaves in The Big Apple:
Dale
Jackson, host of the radio program "Money on the Mark", recently
visited the Banner mill and Summit silver-gold mines to see our
operations firsthand in order to be able to tell our story with
conviction. He did so in preparation for an interview to be
broadcast this weekend in New York City. The interview will
feature Dr. Carson, R. J. Bommarito and Paul Moore, the General
Manager of Lordsburg Mining Company, and will air July 4, 2010 at
10:00 pm EDT on "The Apple" - 970 on the am dial in NYC
(50,000 watts). It will also stream on www.am970theapple.com at
the same time. Our commercial will air during the break to further
support the effort.
The
target audience for this show is an average listener who has little
direct experience with gold, silver and mining stocks. For many
longtime followers of Santa Fe Gold Corporation, the interview will
cover a lot of familiar ground. The main purpose of this show is to
engage for the very first time those who have not heard about us.
That is what many people have been asking for - more exposure.
Many
of you have not met Paul Moore, our General Manager, so this is an
opportunity to become acquainted.
The
one hour interview has been recorded already, and you can listen to
it ahead
of time
by clicking here.
It will also air again in a few months on the same station.
Meanwhile, we have the right to distribute it freely and I would
encourage you to pass it along to your acquaintances.
Dr.
Carson on the road - again:
Dr.
Pierce Carson, CEO, has recently traveled to NYC for the express
purpose of being introduced to a group of about 35 investors and
institutions. The potential activity that could come out of this
meeting alone is tremendous.
As
reported last month, prior to his trip to the UK Dr. Carson was in
NYC being introduced to another group of private and institutional
investors. This group has invited him back for a follow-up visit in
light of the fact that our mill commissioning is proceeding so well.
We
are discussing yet another trip to NYC to meet with the Rodman and
Renshaw investors and institutions for the purpose of reporting on
our progress.
KITCO:
Kitco's web site is the most accessed precious metals information
site online. As earlier reported, we are continuing to advertise on
KITCO
with a banner ad and
a section for investor inquiries, both located on the home page. We
receive inquiries weekly, often from around the world, asking for
further information about Santa Fe Gold Corporation. Interest
continues to grow.
Undiscovered
Equities-
an IR firm:
Recently
Santa Fe Gold Corporation contracted Undiscovered
Equities
to act on our behalf in order to bring our story more attention.
Undiscovered Equities is located in Boca Raton, Florida with another
office in NYC. They are helping on numerous fronts. As you may
recall, they last featured Dr. Carson at a conference they sponsored,
followed by some private meetings in February.
Since
then, they have been contacting shareholders with current
information. I have personally received a few calls from them on
that score, as have many of you with whom I have spoken. In
addition, they plan another series of introductory meetings, and have
tasked their team with calling their own proprietary list of
potential investors. They are also exposing us regularly to those on
their email list.
In
February they conducted and distributed an interview with CEO Pierce
Carson which can be viewed
here
. They are doing a great job! You can sign up for their email
updates on their website.
MONEY
TV:
We
began working with Don Baillargeon andMoney
TVa
few months ago and have recorded several interviews in the ensuing
months. The first was a video
interview
featuring Dr. Carson. Subsequent updates have been interviewing R.
J. Bommarito, Director of Shareholder Communication. Each of these
subsequent updates are just under three minutes in length. Here are a
few the most recent ones:

As
a reminder, we are still on air on the Larry Kudlow Saturday morning
radio show in NYC with a one minute commercial run once per hour
called "The Corporate Profile Minute". You can hear the
commercial here.
The
Korelin
Economics Report -
The original radio program dealing exclusively
with
"asset
based investing"
listened to by over
2 million people
last year.

Korelin and Steve Carr interview R. J. Bommarito on their weekend
radio show. Each segment is less then five minutes in length. Click

Summary:
We
are making significant progress on the IR front:
There
are other events and meetings that are taking place at the same time
We
have received visitors to the mill and the mine by substantial
investors
We
have participated in a number of phone conferences
We
continue email delivery of information
We
have fielded many shareholder inquiries by phone
We
have placed a substantial number of outgoing calls
Our
shareholders are influencing others
Many
brokers are adding to their own as well as their clients'
positions
Analysts
are preparing to initiate coverage of us
Our
website is constantly being updated with all the latest information
More
plans to travel are being discussed
All
in all, the number of new
eyes
on our firm since we entered production is growing. It appears that
that many of them are only waiting for the next guy to do something
before they commit.
We
are also making progress on the production front: A strong case can
be built that our risk profile is now the best it has EVER been.
We
anticipate a very low production cost per ounce
We
are located right here in the southwest USA
We
have commenced production
We
have money in the bank
We
are achieving high concentration ratios, thereby minimizing the
shipping costs of our final product
That
and so much more all contribute to the establishment of an operation
with some of the lowest cost production in the world.
We
are also proceeding carefully and deliberately on the planning front:
We
are exploring in and around the mill and the mine to expand our
resource
We
are continuing to make progress on the world-class Ortiz gold
project and have engaged specialized consulting firms
We
are pursuing our strategy of obtaining additional ore to feed the
under-utilized Banner mill.
We
continue to hire and train additional personnel in anticipation of
round the clock mill and mine operations
We
are bringing to bear our decades of collective experience to
increase efficiencies at every turn
We
are continuing to see record precious metals prices:
With
gold at all time highs recently
The
US dollar nearing a top (its reversal will be bullish for gold
prices)
Politicians
around the world are spending money at historically unprecedented
levels
The
Euro is having its struggles
All
of that, in addition to a reported shortage of physical gold and
silver, should point to higher precious metal prices.
Taken
together, these efforts and circumstances should result in enhanced
profits for Santa Fe Gold Corporation. It has never been a better
time to consider an investment in Santa Fe Gold Corporation.
