On November 27, 2013, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) announced the temporary suspension, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), of trading in the securities of Nevada Gold Corp. (“NVGC”), of Del Mar, California at 9:30 a.m. EST on November 27, 2013, and terminating at 11:59 p.m. EST on December 11, 2013.

The SEC order reflects that the SEC suspended trading in the securities of NVGC because of questions regarding the accuracy and adequacy of assertions by NVGC, and by others, to investors in press releases and promotional material concerning, among other things, the company’s assets, operations, and financial condition. This order was entered pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act.

The SEC cautions broker-dealers, shareholders, and prospective purchasers that they should carefully consider the foregoing information along with all other currently available information and any information subsequently issued by the company.

Brokers and dealers should be alert to the fact that, pursuant to Rule 15c2-11 under the Exchange Act, at the termination of the trading suspension, no quotation may be entered unless and until they have strictly complied with all of the provisions of the rule. If any broker or dealer has any questions as to whether or not he has complied with the rule, he should not enter any quotation but immediately contact the staff in the Division of Trading and Markets, Office of Interpretation and Guidance, at (202) 551-5777. If any broker or dealer is uncertain as to what is required by Rule 15c2-11, he should refrain from entering quotations relating to NVGC securities until such time as he has familiarized himself with the rule and is certain that all of its provisions have been met. If any broker or dealer enters any quotation which is in violation of the rule, the SEC will consider the need for prompt enforcement action.
