GOLDEN MINERALS CLOSES $3.0M SALE OF CELAYA PROPERTY

Golden Minerals Company has sold, through its wholly owned Mexican subsidiary, its remaining interest in the company's Celaya exploration property to a Mexican subsidiary of The Electrum Group LLC.

Golden Minerals will receive a payment of $3.0-million (U.S.) in exchange for selling 100 per cent of its remaining mining concessions and related interests in the Celaya silver and gold project located in Guanajuato, Mexico, to Electrum. The funds will be used to further exploration activities at the company's El Quevar silver project in Argentina as well as other exploration projects in Mexico.

"The addition of $3.0-million cash to our treasury will position us to continue our exploration programs in Mexico and Argentina without the need for additional financing," commented Golden's president and chief executive officer, Warren M. Rehn.
