This will be bigger than BRE-X in one or two ways...

A]Scam of immense proportions including the Bolivian officials
B]A major gold find and the stock will soar to a minimum of $10.00

We welcome and fully support Golden Eagle's investment in Bolivia. As the Vice-Minister of Mining I will review Mr. Paravicini's findings and have them reviewed by Mr. Giovanni Viscarra, a geologist on whom I rely regarding the Tipuani area." Giovanni Viscarra was the
mine superintendent for Golden Eagle's subsidiary operating in Cangalli through most of 1996 until he left for health reasons.

Alvaro Riveros, Bolivia's Vice-Minister for Natural Resources, when reached in Africa at a conference, stated: "Bolivian miners have known for centuries that the Tipuani Mining District generally, and the Cangalli area specifically, contain incredible gold resources. This most recent study of the concessions under Golden Eagle's control now confirms exactly how incredible.

"Bolivia is very proud to have such a substantial gold reserve within its territory." (Mr. Riveros is a shareholder in Golden Eagle.)

Paravicini's geological report states that 15 target areas, representing approximately 80% of the concession's surface area, were studied over the course of 10 months during the later part of
1997 and the early part of 1998.

While the company had acquired a Diamec 252 diamond drill to assist Paravicini in his sampling program on the Cangalli concessions, Paravicini and Dr. Donald Hausen, a member of the
company's Technical Advisory Board, recommended against its use due to the deposit's characteristics. Instead, a program of channeling, trenching and pitting was chosen because increased representative sample size.

Since deep drilling was not going to be used, Paravicini created 3-dimensional modeling of the
ore blocks based on deep sampling made possible by the steep, naturally-trenched terrain, and
by shaft and pit sampling possible at depth. Sampling was conducted in sufficient detail to be
able to compute grade and quality.

The sites for inspection, sampling and measurement were spaced closely enough, and the
geologic character was so well defined, that size, shape, depth and mineral content was well
established as to either resource or reserve calculations. Paravicini emphasized other important
factors relative to his sampling program and report:

-- All sampling was performed by Paravicini, or experienced,
independent field geologists under his control and direction.

-- Either Paravicini, or his staff, maintained strict control of the
samples once taken, including the chain of custody until those
samples were placed in the control of Inspectorate-D.C. Griffith
Laboratories.

-- The samples were prepared within the control of Inspectorate-D.C.
Griffith Laboratories, fire assays were performed on those
prepared samples, and the resulting bead was subjected to an
Atomic Absorption finish. All samples were subjected to duplicate
analysis, with approximately 20% of the samples subjected to
triplicate analysis. The lowest of the assays obtained was always
used instead of the average.
