Why Invest in Silver.....

Silver is a precious metal that is most widely used in industrial productions. Experts' reports have identified a global shortage of silver and this shortage will only get more significant with time. Annually, supply of silver is about 10% short of demand in the past 10 years. This has driven the price of silver to increase from USD4.50 /oz. in 2003 to the current price of USD30/oz.

The all-time high price for silver peaked on the 18th of January 1980 at USD49.45 per troy ounce. Three days later, on 21st January 1980, gold price reached USD850 per troy ounce. Gold / Silver price ratio was approximately 16 times.

The historic gold to silver ratio was set to approximately 1 to 16. That is, one ounce of gold is worth 16 ounces of silver. The average price for gold in the past two years was about USD1, 650 while silver sat at around USD30 making the Gold / Silver ratio approximately 50 times. Market analysts and experts said that the 1 to 16 ratio will return again as it always has throughout history. When this happens, silver will be worth a great deal more than it is today.

Therefore, many market analysts have concluded that the correct price/value for silver should be around USD100 per troy ounce.

Of course, nobody can forecast the future market with a 100% certainty but the trend is pointing towards a higher price in silver. Within the past 10 years, silver price has increased 6 folds. There is no reason not to believe that the price of silver will double or triple within the next 10 years.

While Virgin Gold is a conservative corporation when it comes to investing in profit generating operations, the management is strongly optimistic that our future investments in Silver Mining and Exploration ventures will proof to be very beneficial to our shareholders.

CPS-SILVER

The management is pleased to announce the launch of Convertible Preferred Shares, CPS-SILVER effective today, 1st of March 2013. This offer is made available to all current and new shareholders of VGMC.

The objective is to exploit the market potential of the strong underlying growth potential of Silver over the next five (5) years. As subscribers to our CPS-PLATINUM know, since its launch six months ago Platinum has consistently outperformed Gold. In fact, due to the exceptional performance of Platinum, shareholders who subscribed CPS-PLATINUM in October 2012 will this month already recover 100% of their original investment. It is our intention to recreate a similar performance for CPS-SILVER.

Details of our CPS-SILVER Offer to shareholders are as follows:

1. Initial Offer Price – USD0.90 in March 2013
2. Projected monthly increment of USD0.05 thereafter until further notice.
3. Minimum initial subscription of 5,000 shares, thereafter blocks of minimum 100 shares thereafter per shareholder.
4. Every subscription to 1,000 CPS-SILVER entitles the shareholder to a dividend of 4 troy ounces (1 troy ounce = 31.1034768 grams) Silver, payable each calendar month. 
• E.g. A shareholder subscribes to 10,000 CPS-SILVER on 3rd of March, dividend of 40 oz. of Silver is paid on 3rd day of each subsequent month. Silver dividends will be paid in ounces of Silver into shareholders’ SILVER ACCOUNT to be convertible to Credits (USD) in shareholders’ Credit Account at real time spot silver prices and vice versa.
5. The minimum initial subscription offer of 5,000 CPS-SILVER also applies to CPS-PLATINUM holders. In the same way as CPS-PLATINUM’s standard minimum initial subscription of 10,000 shares applies to CPS-SILVER shareholders.
6. In summary, the launch of CPS-SILVER offers the unique opportunity to become an active shareholder of VGMC by subscribing to a minimum of 5,000 CPS-SILVER or 10,000 CPS-PLATINUM or both.
7. Direct Referral Incentives for CPS-SILVER are structured in the same manner as CPS-PLATINUM whereby direct referrals generate a 10% monetary incentive calculated on the number of shares multiplied by price per share and payable at real time on completed transactions.
8. Our Group Bonus is applicable to all shareholders of CPS-SILVER, CPS-PLATINUM or both.
9. The Group Bonus is calculated based on the total number of newly subscribed CPS-SILVER and CPS-PLATINUM in any one month. Please note: the Group Bonus applies to both types of CPS- offerings. Meaning CPS-SILVER holders can earn group bonus on newly subscribed CPS-SILVER andCPS-PLATINUM, equally CPS-PLATINUM holders can also earn from subscribed new CPS-SILVER and CPS-PLATINUM.
10. A limited number of CPS-SILVER is allocated to every shareholder this month. We apply this limited offer (quota setting) every month to balance the requirement of investment into income generating operations for the company.
11. Shareholders with at least 10,000 CPS-PLATINUM may subscribe to a maximum of 20,000 CPS-SILVER.
12. Non CPS-PLATINUM holders may subscribe up to 10,000 CPS-SILVER in March 2013. This quota will be increased over the coming months.
13. A public listing of Silver assets/interests of VGMC will automatically trigger the conversion of CPS-SILVER stocks into common shares that will be listed at zero conversion cost.

We continue to work hard to create value for our shareholders and I trust you agree with me that the above represents an excellent opportunity for our shareholders. Please do not hesitate to contact us through the ticketing system if you require any further information.

The 2013 Million Dollar Challenge Reward

Dear Shareholders:

I am pleased to be able to introduce the 2013 ‘Million Dollar Challenge’ Reward we are offering to our shareholders by way of acknowledging and rewarding your loyalty and commitment to our business. It is our strategy to invest in good investor relations through well executed incentive campaigns that reinforce the good image and integrity of our business. Virgin Gold’s management has been able to offer several highly rewarding incentives for shareholders over the past three (3) years and our ‘Million Dollar Challenge’ Reward is set to be equally successful.

This is the first time that we are able to offer a global promotion; previous campaigns have always been limited to specific countries and regions. Whilst this has been very effective and successful during the formative years of our business, we are now adopting a pan-global approach to enable everyone to participate in the Virgin Gold opportunity. We will no longer organise weekly and monthly gala style events in selected countries where internationally renowned artists performed to local guests and shareholders. There will be no more car ownership incentive campaigns, which were limited to a few countries. Any previous promotional offers, such as trips to our Premier Center and the give-away commemorative coins are now discontinued.

For 2013 I have allocated a substantial budget to rewarding shareholders in an equitable manner. Shareholders from all countries qualify for this and any future promotions, regardless of nationality or region, because the wealth of this corporation is to be shared with each and every shareholder.

The philosophy and principles of this year’s incentive programme is the sharing of the wealth of this company with our loyal and dedicated shareholders who have been supportive throughout our time of change and growth, championing the vision and upholding the integrity and good image of this corporation.

2013 Million Dollar Challenge Reward Promotion Period: March – October 2013 (8 months)

Challenge	Reward
Challenge 1: Group Bonus of USD10,000 for any of the 6 months of the promotion	Reward 1: USD50, 000 cash incentive
Challenge 2: Group Bonus of USD20, 000 for any of the 6 months of promotion	Reward 2: USD100, 000 cash incentive
Challenge 3: Group Bonus of USD30, 000 or above for any of the 6 months of promotion	Reward 3: USD200, 000 cash incentive
Challenge 4: Group Bonus of USD50, 000 for any of the 6 months of promotion	Reward 4: USD400, 000 cash incentive
Challenge 5: Group Bonus of USD100, 000 or above for any of the 6 months of promotion	Reward 5: USD1, 000, 000 cash incentive

The above incentive will be awarded to qualifying shareholders during our annual gala dinner in December 2013 or January 2014 by me personally. I wish you every success with the 2013 Million Dollar Challenge Reward and thank you for your continued and valued support.

Platinum ....

Platinum has been widely known as “white gold” and “rich man’s gold” for a long time. The value of platinum is historically higher than gold but in the past few years, market speculation and global economic imbalances have contributed to the higher trading value of gold when compared to platinum. In eventuality however, platinum will again have a higher price than gold.
Today, Platinum is still considered far more valuable than gold due to these facts:

The annual supply of platinum is around 130 tons. This is about 6% of annual gold production and less than 1% of silver production. Platinum is among the rarest metal in Earth's crust and has the lowest availability in un-mined reserves and it is nonetheless a very precious commodity.
Relative to volume mined, platinum has many more industrial uses than either silver or gold. In fact, more than 50% of yearly production of platinum has been consumed in contrast with 85% of global gold demand being used for store-of-value adornment.
The supply/demand dynamics of platinum is very tight and getting tighter over time as emerging economies of the world increase their demand for this rare element. In the long run, supply will be unable to meet the demand and this will result in long term appreciation of Platinum price in the spot market.

While no one should speculate that platinum price is to double or triple within the next few years, platinum investment is more conservative and a safer strategy compared to gold and silver.

Virgin Gold has decided to hold stakes in Platinum mining ventures since the beginning of 2012 and we are pleased that we are now able to offer this similar investment opportunity to all our shareholders.

The management is confident that the CPS-Platinum investment will yield a higher return for its shareholders in monetary value. When we first offered CPS-GOLD in January 2010, spot gold price was about USD1, 100 per troy ounce. Now, at the same time in October 2012 that we are offering CPS-PLATINUM to our shareholders, the spot price for platinum is about USD1, 500. With that said, current shareholders will benefit more from this offering as dividend per investment is higher in comparison to the initial offering of CPS-GOLD.

When CPS-PLATINUM gets listed in 2016, shareholders will certainly enjoy the appreciation in assets.
