VANCOUVER, May 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - (Silverado - OTCBB:
SLGLF/Frankfurt: SLGL). Silverado Gold Mines Ltd. announces that it was the
subject of a cease trade order by the British Columbia Securities
Commission ('BCSC'), dated May 13, 2008.
The Executive Director of the BCSC ordered that trading in Silverado
cease in the province of British Columbia until the company files material
change reports, together with previously disseminated news releases
concerning its disclosure of gold mineral resources on its Alaska
properties.
More specifically, the Executive Director (BCSC) ordered that trading
in the securities of Silverado cease until :
1. "Silverado files a news release and material change report disclosing
a material change to gold mineral resources on its Alaskan
properties". (This pertains to Silverado's Investor Facts Sheet of
July 27, 2007, posted on the company's website.)
2. "Silverado files a news release and material change report disclosing
the results of a preliminary assessment for gold on its Alaskan
properties." (This requires the company file with the BCSC a material
change report together with a copy of its previously disseminated news
release issued April 16, 2008.)
3. "Silverado files a news release and material change report disclosing
an inferred mineral resource and the results of a preliminary
assessment for stibnite on its Alaskan properties." (This requires the
company file with the BCSC a material change report together with a
copy of its previously disseminated news release issued May 5, 2008.)
4. "Silverado files a news release and material change report disclosing
the Memorandum of Understanding, and files the Memorandum of
Understanding." (This requires the company file with the BCSC a
material change report together with a copy of its previously
disseminated news release issued December 22, 2006, in relation to the
company's green fuel project.)
5. "Either:
a. Silverado files a preliminary prospectus and prospectus in the
required form for the Distributions, and the Executive Director
issues receipts for the preliminary prospectus and prospectus, or
b. Silverado files Reports of Exempt Distribution, if Silverado relied
on exemptions from the registration and prospectus requirements of
the Act for Distributions that were available to it and require a
Report of Exempt Distribution."
The company, and its legal counsel, are presently preparing the
necessary documentation for filing, including Reports of Exempt
Distribution, to satisfy the concerns of the BCSC, and anticipate that a
further corrective news release will be issued in the immediate future.
