Operations</b></font></p> <p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"><font size="2">        Golden Minerals Company (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, completed a business combination (the "Transaction") on September 2, 2011 with ECU Silver Mining Inc. ("ECU"). The primary asset acquired in the Transaction was the 100% interest in the Velardeña and Chicago precious metals mining operations in Mexico (the "Velardeña Operations") (see Note 24). The Company is primarily engaged in the operation and further development of the Velardeña Operations, the continued advancement of its El Quevar advanced exploration property in Argentina, and the continued rationalization of our portfolio of exploration properties in South America and Mexico.</font></p> <p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"><font size="2">        Upon emergence from Chapter 11 reorganization on March 24, 2009, the Company became the successor to Apex Silver Mines Limited ("ASML") for purposes of reporting under the U.S. federal securities laws. Upon emergence from the Chapter 11 reorganization and as required by U.S. GAAP and per the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, "Business Combinations", ("ASC 805"), and ASC 852, "Reorganizations" ("ASC852"), the Company applied fresh start accounting and adjusted all of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities to their respective fair values based on the Company's reorganization value.</font></p> <p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"><font size="2">        The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under which an entity is considered to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the continuing operations of the Company are dependent upon its ability to secure sufficient funding and to generate future profitable operations. The underlying value and recoverability of the amounts shown as mineral properties in the consolidated balance sheet are dependent on the ability of the Company to generate positive cash flow from operations and to continue to fund exploration and development activities that would lead to profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of the mineral properties. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in generating future profitable operations or securing additional funding in the future on terms acceptable to the Company or at all.</font></p></div> | |

When a mineral property is determined to have proven and probable reserves, subsequent development costs are capitalized to mineral properties. For acquired mineral properties with proven and probable reserves, the Company capitalizes acquisition costs and subsequent development costs. When mineral properties are developed and operations commence, capitalized costs are charged to operations using the units-of-production method over proven and probable reserves. Upon abandonment or sale of a mineral property, all capitalized costs relating to the specific property are written off in the period abandoned or sold and a gain or loss is recognized in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.</font></p> <p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"><font size="2">        Mineral properties acquired in the ECU merger were recorded at estimated fair market value based on valuations performed with the assistance of an independent appraisal firm and a minerals engineering company.

On a quarterly basis the Company evaluates its exploration properties to determine if they meet the Company's minimum requirements for continued evaluation. The rights to the properties that do not meet the minimum requirements are relinquished and the carrying values, if any are written off and reflected in other operating gains and losses, net on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Costs of exploration subsequent to the application of fresh start accounting have and will continue to be expensed.</font></p></div> | |
