Location: The Marlin Project is located in the western highlands of Guatemala, 48 kilometers southwest of the city of Huehuetenango, which in turn, is approximately 300 kilometers by road north-west of the capital, Guatemala City. The project lies within a highly prospective land package of approximately 100,000 hectares in Western Guatemala.

Project Description: The Marlin deposit was first discovered in 1998, and Glamis Gold acquired its 100% interest in the property through the merger with Francisco Gold Corp in July 2002. During its due diligence review, Glamis established an initial gold equivalent resource of 1.4 million ounces. Upon completing the acquisition, a drill program was initiated to extend the Main zone, which also led to the discovery of major extensions to the south and southeast. The ore body is still open along strike to the west and down-dip to the south.

Based on the subsequent feasibility study, Glamis commenced construction of a combined open pit and underground operation in the first quarter of 2004. Construction is currently ahead of schedule and commercial production is expected in the fourth quarter of 2005. Mill capacity has been expanded to 5,000 tonnes per day to accommodate additional high grade feed recently found in the La Hamaca Zone and other satellite properties. The project is fully permitted and enjoys strong local support, as well as backing by the Guatemalan Government and the World Bank.

Key Operating Parameters

Exploration: Underground definition drilling from the bottom of the recently completed decline ramp is further defining the main Marlin ore body in preparation for production.  Within the district, several highly prospective targets have been identified, including a 405,000 oz. gold equivalent, inferred resource at La Hamaca, three kilometers to the north of the main Marlin ore body.  Continued success in these outlying targets could, over time, turn Marlin into a major gold and silver producing district.  The highest priority targets are shown on the following illustration.
