Great West Gold, Inc. - Update on UK Listings.

NEW YORK -- Great West Gold, Inc. (OTCBB:GWGO) confirms that it has acquired the "Treasure King" Gold Mining Project and the "Yaba" Gold Mining Project in Yavapai County, Arizona

Great West Gold, Inc. is planning (in and during March of 2006) to dispose of its shareholding

Shareholders will be advised as to the "Record Dates" and the "Pay Dates" for these additional Stock Dividends to be paid to Great West Gold, Inc. shareholders.

Great West Gold, Inc. confirms that the other five Companies will be quoted on an OTC Market in London in and during March of 2006 and clarify the position of these outstanding issues as follows :-

RATIONALE:-

Great West Gold, Inc. acquired five Gold Mining Exploration projects (Western Gold Limited, Golden Sierra Limited, Copperstone Mining Limited, Ambassador Gold Limited and Golden Eagle Mining Limited) based primarily in Arizona, USA with the intention of developing and progressing the exploration of these Gold Mining claims, two of which have proven Reserves of Gold. The continual slide in Great West Gold, Inc's share price made it impossible for the Company to raise sufficient funds to develop these Gold Mining Claims without severely eroding shareholder value.

Great West Gold, Inc. promised its shareholders that it would create value for them and eventually managed to solve this problem by disposing of each of these five Gold Mining claims into five new separate Companies (Windsor Resources, Inc., Sentinel Resources, Inc., Golden Eagle Inc, Ambassador Gold, Inc and Copperstone Mining, Inc.). where it had been intended that these companies would be listed on the OTC Pink Sheets Market as separate entities and with separate Management. This would allow each of these Companies to raise the cash required to develop and progress the development of each of these mines whilst allowing Great West Gold, Inc. shareholders to directly participate in each of these companies as shareholders.

Great West Gold, Inc. is maintaining an interest in each of these five new projects through its holding in Western Diversified Mining Resources, Inc., a company in which it holds a 71.43% shareholding.

EVALUATION OF GOLD MINING EXPLORATION ASSETS:-

Each of the five Gold Mining Exploration companies has had extensive geological work conducted thereon. Great West Gold, Inc. has published extensive reports on two of these companies which show actual Proven Gold Reserves.

LISTING OF THE NEW FIVE COMPANIES SHARES:-

It was intended that each of these five new Gold Mining Exploration companies seek an immediate admission to the OTC Pink Sheets Market. However, various material changes to the OTC Pink Sheets Market Rules and Regulations have forced Great West Gold, Inc. to restructure its plans due to the extended period of time it will take to gain the admittance of these five new Gold Mining Companies for trading on the OTC Pink Sheets Market. Great West Gold, Inc. shareholders would have been unable to trade their shares in Windsor Resources, Inc. on the OTC Pink Sheets Market as they would have been restricted for a period of one year from the date of their issue under Regulation 144.

Great West Gold, Inc. has resolved this problem as follows:-

1. The shares held in each of the five new Gold Mining Exploration Holdings have been disposed of to five new "Holding Companies" (Bouse Mining Holdings plc, Sentinel Resource Holdings plc, Copperstone Mining Holdings plc, Ambassador Gold Holdings plc and Golden Eagle Mining Holdings plc) and are incorporated in the United Kingdom. For the purposes of this Announcement, these shall be referred to as the "United Kingdom Holding Companies".

2. These five new United Kingdom "Holding Companies" are in the process of seeking a listing of these companies on a "third tier" OTC Market in London.

3. Upon the listing of these five new United Kingdom "Holding Companies" on the London OTC Market, these companies are each entitled to admit their shares for trading on the OTC Pink Sheets Market through an "Unsolicited Trade" based upon the fact that these United Kingdom Companies are termed "Foreign Issuers".

4. These companies will then create an American Depositary Receipt ("ADR") Level I Programme where these ADR's in each of the five United Kingdom "Holding Companies" will be entitled to admit these ADR's for trading on the OTC Pink Sheets Market through an "Unsolicited Trade".

5. Shareholders will then be in a position to trade their Ordinary Shares in all of these five new "United Kingdom Holding Companies" on either the London OTC Market or on the USA OTC Pink Sheets Market. These shares will not be restricted in any manner.

6. Shareholders will be permitted to convert all or part of their shareholdings in each of these five new "United Kingdom Holding Companies" into ADR's which will provide them with a third equity instrument to trade on the USA OTC Pink Sheets Market.

Group Company to effect all of these Corporate Finance transactions and to implement the various admissions of these equity instruments to the OTC Pink Sheets Market and to the to the "third tier" United Kingdom Stock Exchange as well the implementation of the ADR Level I Programme..

VARIOUS CONDITIONS PRECEDENT:-

Each of the "United Kingdom Holding Companies" is in the process of obtaining a CUSIP Number, ISIN Number and Trading Symbol prior to its quotation on the OTC Pink Sheets Market and will file an Information Statement as well as its Financial Statements with the OTC Pink Sheets Market under Rule 15c-211.

Each of the "United Kingdom Holding Companies" will then institute an American Depositary Receipt ("ADR") Level I Programme. These ADR's will each have an ISIN Number, CUSIP Number and Trading Symbol and prior to being admitted for trading on the OTC Pink Sheets Market.

Each one ADR in respect of the "United Kingdom Holding Companies" will comprise of 1,000 Ordinary Shares in that "United Kingdom Holding Company".

The "United Kingdom Holding Companies" have appointed a Share Transfer Agent to deal with the share transfers for the five Company's listings on the both the OTC Pink Sheets Market and on a "third tier" United Kingdom Stock Exchange.

The settlement of the dealing in the ADR's will be dealt with separately by a Depositary Receipt Company.

The shares quoted on a "third tier" United Kingdom Stock Exchange will probably be settled through the CREST settlement system.

ADVANTAGES OF THE LONDON LISTINGS :-

London is now the Global centre of Mining and the ability of the five new United Kingdom Mining Holding Companies to raise significant funding will be hugely increased. The strong currency of the Pound Sterling compared to the US Dollar will be of huge benefit to our shareholders. Each of the five new United Kingdom Mining Holding Companies are still in discussions to appoint experienced Mining operators as well as independent Non Executive Directors to its Board of Directors that are not associated with Great West Gold, Inc. This process is delaying the admittance of these Companies to the UK OTC Market.

SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS:-

Great West Gold, Inc. and St James Capital Holdings, Inc. are "fast tracking" this process and will be continually updating its shareholders on progress. Great West Gold, Inc. is updating its web site with a "FAQ" Section, "Live Chat" as well as the installation of a USA Toll Free Number to deal with shareholder enquiries. We had promised to effect this but due to extensive work commitments by our external web designers, this has not as yet been completed.

Great West Gold, Inc. is of the opinion that it could have improved its Investor Relations and is now hoping to rectify this problem "going forward".

DISTRIBUTION OF SHARE CERTIFICATES:-

The Share Certificates in respect of Bouse Mining Holdings plc, Ambassador Gold plc, Sentinel Resources, plc, Copperstone Mining Holdings plc and Golden Eagle Mining plc will be posted to the Great West Gold, Inc. shareholders and during this month. This delay was being caused by the appointment of a SEC approved Transfer Agent who has the capabilities of dealing with this "dual listing" of the Company's Ordinary Shares, but this problem was solved. The current delay is the constitution of each of the Board of Directors.

FUTURE PLANS FOR GREAT WEST GOLD, INC.:-

As at January 4, 2006 after the distribution of the shares in the last of the five Gold Mining Exploration Companies, Great West Gold, Inc. will hold its 71.43% share of Western Diversified Mining Resources, Inc.

Great West Gold, Inc. will now distribute its entire shareholding in Western Diversified Mining Resources, Inc. to Great West Gold, Inc. shareholders as a Stock Dividend. Shareholders will be advised as to the "Record Date" and the "Pay Date" in respect thereof.

Great West Gold, Inc. will then admit Western Diversified Mining Resources, Inc. for trading on the London OTC Market as well as on the USA OTC Pink Sheets Market with a Level I ADR Programme.

This will result in a change of name for Great West Gold, Inc. along with a new ISIN Number, CUSIP Number and Trading Symbol. This will be effected in and during late April of 2006.
