wholly owned subsidiary of Golden, has taken up, paid for and acquired
22,056,980 or 94.26% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Kootenay on
a fully diluted basis in connection with Golden's previously announced cash
offer for the common shares of Kootenay. The offer price was $0.66 Cdn per

common shares of Kootenay under the provisions of Part 16 of the Business
Corporations Act, Alberta, will be mailed to the remaining shareholders of
Kootenay today. Upon completion of this compulsory acquisition, it is
anticipated that Kootenay will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Golden.

directors of Kootenay except for John C. Marsh have resigned and the following
individuals have been appointed as directors of the Corporation including:
Hee-Cheol Koo, Byung-wook Hwong, Jong Ho Kang and John C. Marsh.
