In recent years, CFDs have grown in global appeal to retail investors as an investment vehicle that allows for the small investor to put less capital at risk to participate in movements in larger blocks of securities. Similar to its strategy in the Forex market, the Company is seeking global exposure (non-US residents) to the CFD market, where retail investors overseas are increasingly finding this an attractive method to invest.

“We are continuing to build our company through acquisitions that fit our growth strategy. Nexus gives us the ability to expand our opportunities outside of the U.S. as we look to establish a presence in the CFD markets overseas,” stated Darren Dunckel, CEO of Forex International Trading Corp. “We believe this acquisition could generate a great deal of interest in our state-of-the-art retail trading platform as we give our international clients the ability to trade forex and contracts for difference. We anticipate the due diligence process and review process by the Financial Services Authority to take approximately 45 to 60 days.”

Max Asmelash, Director of Nexus Capital stated, “As a company authorized by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) throughout the European Union, Nexus is a licensed and regulated firm and we have been seeking to partner with an organization like Forex International Trading to expand our business. Through this transaction we will have available to us a powerful web-based trading platform solution that will allow us to cross market both our CFD offering and our forex offering to an international retail client base. We look forward to working together in building a global power house online trading firm.”

The letter of intent for the most part is non-binding on the parties. The acquisition is subject to certain requirements including due diligence, approval from the FSA, execution of a mutually-acceptable definitive purchase agreement and various other customary conditions. Accordingly, no assurances can be made that the transaction will be consummated.

“We are pleased to have secured the financing needed for the permitting process,” said Patrick Champney, Chief Executive Officer. “This is an important step. We still must obtain sufficient funding to actually begin mine operations after acquiring the necessary permits.”

Sierra Resource Group, Inc. owns an 80% interest in the Chloride Copper Mine. The Chloride Copper Mine property consists of 37 unpatented lode mining claims and 12 mill site claims. It is located 24km northwest of Kingman, in the Wallapai District, Mohave County, Arizona. The open pit mine and the existing SX/EW processing plant operated at the site from 1995 before being idled in 1996 due to low copper prices.

The Chloride Copper Mine deposit is hosted by Late Tertiary conglomerates and, to a lesser extent, by Quaternary alluvium and Cretaceous granitic rocks. Copper mineralization at Chloride Copper Mine is in the form of mineralized lenses contained within a paleochannel approximately a few thousand feet long and up to 750 feet wide. The source of copper at Chloride Copper Mine is interpreted to be the low grade porphyry-type copper mineralization at Alum Wash, about 3.5 miles northeast of the Chloride Copper Mine deposit. The mineralization is characterized by dark blue to black rock similar to the Exotica deposit, a satellite of the huge Chuquicamata copper deposit in Chile.

The current investment climate in Ecuador is extremely favorable, as compared to other Latin American countries. A dollarized economy, combined with a stable political culture and low wage levels, create many opportunities for foreign investors. Other investment advantages include an abundance of natural resources and the fastest growing economy in the region, with a non-oil GDP growth rate of 6% for 2010.

Some key facts include:

* Geological studies performed by the British, Swedish and Ecuadorian Geological Surveys through the late 1990s have suggested that Ecuador has tremendous potential for discovery of new economic ore deposits.

* There are new laws protecting the Ecuadorian Economy and Environment seen as progressive.

* Ecuador’s Minister of Production Nathalie Cely Suarez, in talks with Bloomberg, commented that the Country’s non-oil GDP expected to rise 6% in 2010.

* In January 2010, Agencia de Regulacion y Control Minero (”ARCM”) was established to be responsible for compliance of resource companies and their activities with Ecuador’s new mining law. A prerequisite of the new mining law is the confirmation of the mining company’s concession titles in Ecuador.

* All business in Ecuador is transacted in US currency, encouraging stability and inward investment.

* Oil and Mining are valued at 27% of the economy of Ecuador and the government recognizes their value and is working to develop more investment.

* There is a good labor pool available in Ecuador, which makes investing in Ecuador particularly attractive.

“We believe Ecuador has key elements required to see its mining sector explode,” commented Barry Lucas, Elray’s Executive Chairman. “These include excellent geological potential, stable economy and a business-oriented government.”

(CGFIA.OB)Colorado Goldfields Inc. To Acquire Gavilanes Property in Durango, Mexico

The property, which has been targeted as possible acquisition, is located 8 kilometers northeast of the historic Pinos gold deposits where veins with reported bonanza grades of more than 180 grams per ton gold were mined historically on northwest striking veins making the Pinos district the largest gold producer in the State of Zacatecas during the Colonial Period. Historic records suggest the average mined grade was 98 grams per ton silver and 57 grams per ton gold. Management has traveled to this mining location after careful historical review and together with the property owners expressed willingness to contribute the project to Alto’s existing portfolio subject to final negotiation.

President and CEO Mark Daniel Klok has stated, “The field visit recently made was done to inspect the producing gold mine targeted for acquisition and to review the expansion plans which management has proposed on this project. These discussions have marked an important step toward the transition of the company to becoming a producer of gold in 2010. Additionally the field visit allowed our group to tour the company’s exploration properties Los Tres Machos and Zuna while reviewing the next phase of exploration work planned by our geological staff.”
