**Statement
      Regarding Forward-Looking Statements**





*The
      statements contained in this report on Form 10-QSB that are not purely
      historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable
      securities laws. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our
      “expectations,” “anticipation,” “intentions,” “beliefs,” or “strategies”
regarding the future. Forward looking statements also include statements
      regarding fluctuations in the price of gold or certain other commodities, (such
      as silver, copper, diesel fuel, and electricity); changes in national and local
      government legislation, taxation, controls, regulations and political or
      economic changes in the United States or other countries in which we may carry
      on business in the future; business opportunities that may be presented to
      or
      pursued by us; our ability to integrate acquisitions successfully; operating
      or
      technical difficulties in connection with exploration or mining activities;
      the
      speculative nature of gold exploration, including risks of diminishing
      quantities or grades of reserves; and contests over our title to properties.
      All
      forward-looking statements included in this report are based on information
      available to us as of the filing date of this report, and we assume no
      obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. Our actual results
      could differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Among the factors
      that could cause actual results to differ materially are the factors discussed
      in Item 1, “Business - Risk Factors” in our Form 10-KSB for the year ended
      December 31, 2005.*

GOLDSPRING,
      INC.


NOTES
      TO
      FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


March
      31,
      2006 AND 2005





**NOTE
      1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, GOING CONCERN, MANAGEMENT PLANS AND BASIS OF
      PRESENTATION**





**Description
      of Business**





We
      are a
      North American precious metals mining company with an operating gold and silver
      test mine in northern Nevada. Our Company was formed in mid-2003, and we
      acquired the Plum property in November 2003. In our relatively short history,
      we
      secured permits, built an infrastructure and brought the Plum exploration
      project into test mining production. During 2005, we acquired additional
      properties around the Plum project in Northern Nevada, expanding our footprint
      and creating opportunities for exploration. We are an emerging company, looking
      to build on our success through the acquisition of other mineral properties
      in
      North America with reserves and exploration potential that can be efficiently
      put into near-term production. Our objectives are to increase production;
      increase reserves through exploration and acquisitions; expand our footprint
      at
      the Plum mine; and maximize cash flow and the return for our shareholders.
      We
      were incorporated in the state of Florida effective October 19, 1999 under
      the
      name of Click and Call, Inc.. On June 7, 2000, we filed an amendment to our
      Articles of Incorporation changing our name to STARTCALL.COM, INC. On March
      10,
      2003, we changed our name to GoldSpring, Inc. The primary nature of our business
      is the exploration and development of mineral producing properties.





**Going
      Concern**





The
      financial statements are presented on the basis that our company is a going
      concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction
      of
      liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time.
      We have incurred operating losses since its inception. This condition raises
      substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.





**Management
      Plans**





Our
      plans
      for the continuation of our company as a going concern include developing our
      Plum Mine into a profitable operation and potentially supplementing financing
      of
      our operations through sales of our unregistered common stock and borrowings
      from affiliates and other shareholders. There are no assurances, however, with
      respect to the future success of these plans. The financial statements do not
      contain any adjustments, which might be necessary, if we are unable to continue
      as a going concern.





**Basis
      of Presentation**





The
      accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in
      accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
      information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of
      Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
      footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
      financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal
      recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
      included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006
      are
      not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
      ending December 31, 2006. For further information, refer to the financial
      statements and footnotes thereto included in our Form 10-KSB Report for the
      fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

**NOTE
      2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**




**Forward-Looking
      Statements**





The
      following discussion contains, in addition to historical information,
      forward-looking statements regarding GoldSpring, Inc. (“we,” the "Company," or
      "GSPG"), that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ
      materially. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Report that
      are
      not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking
      statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as
      "may," "will," "expect," "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "could," "estimate,"
      or "continue" or the negative or other variations thereof or comparable
      terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Factors that
      could cause or contribute to such differences include possible need for
      additional financing; dependence on management; government regulation; and
      other
      factors discussed in this report and the Company's other filings with the
      Securities and Exchange Commission.





Summarized
      below are the significant accounting policies of GoldSpring, Inc. (“we,”
“GoldSpring,” or the “Company”)


Unless
      otherwise indicated, amounts provided in these notes to the financial statements
      pertain to continuing operations.




*Principles
      of Consolidation*




The
      consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our company and its
      wholly owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company transactions and balances
      have been eliminated in consolidation.




*Cash
      and Cash Equivalents*




We
      consider all highly liquid debt securities purchased with original or remaining
      maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value
      of
      cash equivalents approximates fair value.




*Fair
      Value of Financial Instruments*




The
      carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts
      payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair market value because of the
      short
      maturity of those instruments. Furthermore, convertible debenture and other
      notes payable amounts approximate fair value at March 31, 2006 and 2005.
      Pursuant to EFIT No. 0027 “Application
      of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”  we
      were
      required allocate value to the warrant issued with the debenture, and to record
      a discount on the debenture for its conversion feature. We are in default on
      these convertible debentures and thus have recorded these notes at face
      value.




*Credit
      Risk*




It
      is our
      practice to place our cash equivalents in high-quality money market securities
      with a major banking institution. Certain amounts of such funds are not insured
      by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. However, we consider our credit
      risk associated with cash and cash equivalents to be minimal.




*Impairment
      of Long Lived Assets and Long Lived Assets to be Disposed Of*




In
      August
      2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of
      Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment
      or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which supersedes both SFAS No. 121,
“Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
      to
      Be Disposed Of” and the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting
      Practice Bulletin (“APB”) Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations —
Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary,
      Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions,” for the disposal of
      a segment of a business (as previously defined in that opinion).This statement
      establishes the accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by
      sale
      and applies to all long-lived assets, including discontinued operations. This
      statement requires those long-lived assets be measured at the lower of carrying
      amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing
      operations or discontinued operations. Therefore, discontinued operations will
      no longer be measured at net realizable value or include amounts for operating
      losses that have not yet occurred.




F-6




SFAS
      No.
      144 retains the fundamental provisions of SFAS No. 121 for recognizing and
      measuring impairment losses on long-lived assets held for use and long-lived
      assets to be disposed of by sale, while also resolving significant
      implementation issues associated with SFAS No. 121. We adopted SFAS No. 144
      in
      our evaluation of the fair value of certain assets described in these financial
      statement footnotes.




*Inventories*




We
      state
      inventories at the lower of average cost or net realizable value. At March
      31,
      2006 and 2005, our inventories consisted of $0 and $106,732, respectively,
      of
      doré and bullion in our accounts at refineries. At March 31, 2005 we had $0 of
      supplies and reagents compared to $41,377at March 31, 2006. We were unable
      to
      estimate our in-process inventories at March 31, 2005, as our gold production
      processes are still in their inception stage, and we do not yet have sufficient
      data available to accurately calculate in-process inventory. We value
      inventories at the lower of full cost of production or net realizable value
      based on current metals prices. We determine net realizable value by estimating
      value based on current metals prices, less cost to convert stockpiled and
      in-process inventories to finished products.


*Revenue
      Recognition*




Sales
      of
      gold and silver dore are recorded when title and risk of loss transfer to the
      refiner at current spot metals prices. Sales are calculated based upon assay
      of
      the dore’s precious metal content and its weight. Recorded values are adjusted
      upon final settlement from the refiner that usually occurs within 24 days of
      delivery. If we have reason to believe that the final settlement will materially
      affect our recognition of revenue because of a difference between the refiner’s
      assay of precious metals contained in the dore and ours, we establish a reserve
      against the sale.




*Stock
      Issued For Services*




We
      base
      the value of stock issued for services on the market value of our common stock
      at the date of issue or our estimate of the fair value of the services received,
      whichever is more reliably measurable.




*Deferred
      Financing Charges*




During
      the first quarter of 2006 we recorded deferred financing charges associated
      with
      the issue of promissory notes payable totaling $0. We amortize the charges
      over
      the respective lives of the promissory notes payable as interest expense. During
      the quarter ended March 31, 2006 we recognized $76,824 of interest expense
      related to the amortization of deferred financing fees.




*Plant
      and Equipment*




We
      state
      plant and equipment at cost. We provide depreciation and amortization in amounts
      sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their
      estimated service lives or productive value.




We
      capitalize expenditures for renewals and improvements that significantly extend
      the useful life of an asset. We charge expenditures for maintenance and repairs
      to operations when incurred. When assets are sold or retired, the cost of the
      asset and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts
      and
      any gain or loss is recognized at such time. We use the straight-line method
      of
      depreciation for financial reporting purposes, depreciating assets over useful
      lives ranging from 3 to 7 years.






We
      review
      the carrying value of our plant and equipment assets on a quarterly basis.
      Where
      information and conditions suggest impairment, we write down these assets to
      net
      recoverable amount, based on estimated future cash flows that may be attained
      from them.




F-7





*Mineral
      Properties*




We
      defer
      acquisition costs until we determine the viability of the property. Since we
      do
      not have proven and probable reserves as defined by Industry Guide 7,
      exploration expenditures are expensed as incurred.




We
      expense holding costs to maintain a property on a care and maintenance basis
      as
      incurred.




We
      review
      the carrying value of our interest in each property on a quarterly basis to
      determine whether an impairment has incurred in accordance with the Financial
      Accounting Standards Board (FASB) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or
      Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”




Where
      information and conditions suggest impairment, we write down these properties
      to
      net recoverable amount, based on estimated future cash flows. Our estimate
      of
      gold price, mineralized materials, operating capital, and reclamation costs
      are
      subject to risks and uncertainties affecting the recoverability of our
      investment in property, plant, and equipment. Although we have made our best
      estimate of these factors based on current conditions, it is possible that
      changes could occur in the near term that could adversely affect our estimate
      of
      net cash flows expected to be generated from our operating properties and the
      need for possible asset impairment write-downs.




Where
      estimates of future net operating cash flows are not available and where other
      conditions suggest impairment, we assess if carrying value can be recovered
      from
      net cash flows generated by the sale of the asset or other means.




We
      carry
      our property acquisition and capitalized plant and equipment costs at cost
      less
      accumulated amortization and write-downs.




*Reclamation
      Liabilities and Asset Retirement Obligations*




Minimum
      standards for site reclamation and closure have been established by various
      government agencies that affect certain of our operations. We calculate our
      estimates of reclamation liability based on current laws and regulations and
      the
      expected undiscounted future cash flows to be incurred in reclaiming, restoring,
      and closing our operating mine sites. When we incur reclamation liabilities
      that
      are not be related to asset retirements we recognize the obligations in
      accordance with Statement of Position No. 96-1.




In
      August
      2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting
      for Asset Retirement Obligations.”




SFAS
      143
      established a uniform methodology for accounting for estimating reclamation
      and
      abandonment costs. The Standard requires that the fair value of a liability
      for
      an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is
      incurred. SFAS No. 143 requires us to record a liability for the present value
      of our estimated environmental remediation costs and the related asset created
      with it when a recoverable asset (long-lived asset) can be realized. In our
      case, the long-lived asset is directly related to the mining infrastructure
      costs being expensed by our Company. Since we do not yet have proven or probable
      reserves as defined by Industry Guide 7, and in accordance with FASB No. 143
      our
      asset retirement obligation was expensed directly to reclamation expense.




*Earnings
      Per Common Share*




In
      calculating earnings per common share, we compute basic earnings per share
      by
      dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding,
      excluding the dilutive effects of common stock equivalents. For the periods
      ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, we had net losses for which the affect of common
      stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive, accordingly only basic loss per share
      is presented.




*Recent
      Authoritative Pronouncements*




F-8





On
      December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued
      Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or Statement, No. 123 (revised
      2004), Share-Based Payment ("Statement 123(R)"), which is a revision of FASB
      Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("Statement 123").
      Statement 123(R) supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB
      25"), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB Statement No.
      95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in Statement 123(R) is
      similar to the approach described in Statement 123. Statement 123(R) requires
      that all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock
      options, be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values.
      Pro
      forma disclosure is no longer permitted. Statement 123(R) is effective for
      small
      business issuers at the beginning of the first interim or annual period
      beginning after December 15, 2005. As permitted by Statement 123, we currently
      account for share-based payments to employees using APB 25's intrinsic value
      method. We adopted Statement 123(R) on January 1, 2006 using the modified
      prospective method.




In
      November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
      (SFAS) 151, "Inventory Costs - an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4." SFAS
      151
      seeks to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense,
      freight, handling costs and wasted material (spoilage) in the determination
      of
      inventory carrying costs. The statement requires such costs to be treated as
      a
      current period expense. This statement is effective November 1, 2005 for the
      Company. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 151 will have
      a
      significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.




In
      May
      2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections -
      a
      Replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3." SFAS 154 requires
      retrospective application to prior period financial statements of changes in
      accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the
      period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. SFAS 154 also
      redefines "restatement" as the revising of previously issued financial
      statements to reflect the correction of an error. This statement is effective
      for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning
      after December 15, 2005 (or fiscal 2007 for the Company). The Company does
      not
      believe that the adoption of SFAS 154 will have a significant impact on its
      consolidated financial statements.





*Use
      of Estimates*




In
      preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
      principles, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
      reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
      assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues
      and
      expenditures during the reported periods. Actual results could differ materially
      from those estimates. Estimates may include those pertaining to the estimated
      useful lives of property and equipment and software, determining the estimated
      net realizable value of receivables, and the realization of deferred tax assets.




*Risks
      and Uncertainties*




We
      regularly evaluate risks and uncertainties and, when probable that a loss or
      expense will be incurred, record a charge to current period operations.




*Income
      Taxes*




We
      recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between
      the
      financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted
      tax rates and laws that are expected to be recovered. We provide a valuation
      allowance for deferred tax assets for which we do not consider realization
      of
      such assets to be more likely than not.

**NOTE

**LIQUIDATED
      DAMAGES**





For
      the
      first quarter of 2005 (ended March 31, 2005), we recorded liquidated damages
      expenses due to investors of our March 2004 offering and subsequent November
      30,
      2004 restructuring as follows:




Liquidated
                damages relating to:November
                30, 2004 Non-Registration Provisions
            
            $
            1,776,104Failure
                to timely deliver shares upon notice of converting note
                holders
            
            
            98,529$
            1,874,633







These
      liquidated damages ceased in October 2005 when our Registration Statement was
      declared effective.




*Non-Registration
      Provisions*




Our
      November 2004 subscription agreement required us to file a registration
      statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than December
      30,
      2004 and to cause the registration statement to be declared effective no later
      than February 14, 2005. Our former Chief Executive Officer withdrew our pending
      registration statement and did not submit a new registration statement during
      the period of his purported control of our company. His failure to submit the
      registration statement to the SEC by December 30, 2004 triggered liquidated
      damages to accrue under the November 2004 subscription agreement. Accordingly,
      at December 31, 2004, we had accrued $222,013 of liquidated damages relating
      to
      Non-Registration Provisions. The liquidated damages continued to accrue in
      the
      amount of $222,013 for each 30-day period after December 30, 2004 until our
      registration statement was declared effective in October 2005.




*Failure
      to Timely Deliver Conversion Shares*




On
      December 20, 2004, we received notice from holders of approximately $500,000
      of
      convertible notes payable of their intention to convert into shares of our
      common stock. As a result, we recorded the issuance of 4,243,791 shares on
      December 20, 2004. We were required to deliver certificates representing
      unrestricted, free-trading stock within three business days of our receipt
      of
      the notices of conversion (the “Delivery Date”). The failure to deliver the
      shares by the Delivery Date resulted in liquidated damages of 1% of the Note
      principal amount being converted per business day after the Delivery Date.
      Our
      former Chief Executive Officer did not deliver the stock certificates within
      the
      required period. On March 18, 2005 we delivered the certificates representing
      the shares of common stock to these converting note holders. The 84 -day delay
      in delivering the shares resulted in liquidated damages of $403,175. We
      recognized these damages during the fourth quarter of 2004 and the first quarter
      of 2005. We issued convertible notes for the amount of liquidated damages due.




F-10


**MANDATORY
      REDEMPTION PAYMENT**




Under
      the
      terms of the November 2004 subscription agreement, convertible note holders
      have
      the right to a mandatory redemption payment in the event we are prohibited
      or
      otherwise fail to deliver shares of our common stock to converting note holders.
      The mandatory redemption payment is calculated as an amount equal to multiplying
      the number of shares of common stock otherwise deliverable upon conversion
      of
      the note’s principal and interest multiplied by the highest price of our common
      stock for the period beginning with the Deemed Conversion Date (the date the
      holder elects to convert the note) and ending with the payment date. On March
      7,
      2005, we received a mandatory redemption payment demand relating to our failure
      to deliver stock certificates representing 29,573,803 shares of our common
      stock. Under the mandatory redemption payment provisions of the November 2004
      subscription agreement, we repurchased the 29,573,803 shares of common stock
      at
      $0.23 per share, or $6,801,975. We issued a secured convertible note in the
      aggregate amount of $6,885,184 with a 12% interest rate for the 29,573,803
      shares and accrued interest.




LEGAL
      PROCEEDINGS




***The
      State Court Case***




On
      November 9, 2004, we filed a lawsuit in Maricopa County (Arizona) Superior
      Court
      against defendants Stephen B. Parent, Ron Haswell, Walter Doyle, Seth Shaw,
      Antonio Treminio, together with their spouses, and Ecovery, Inc., a Nevada
      corporation, or Ecovery.




The
      12-count complaint alleges claims for violations of Arizona’s racketeering act,
      state-law securities fraud (primary and secondary liability), common-law fraud,
      negligent misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence/gross
      negligence, breach of contract, unjust enrichment/restitution, theft/conversion,
      conspiracy liability, and injunctive relief. In essence, the complaint alleges
      that Stephen Parent misrepresented the value of certain placer mining claims
      that his company, Ecovery, sold to us in 2003 in exchange for approximately
      99,000,000 shares of our stock; that Ecovery no longer had good title to the
      mining claims when they were sold to us; that Mr. Parent and the other
      named defendants conspired to defraud us out of approximately 24,000,000 shares
      of our stock; and that Mr. Parent misappropriated more than $300,000 in company
      funds.




On
      November 29, 2004, we moved for a temporary restraining order, or TRO,
      prohibiting Mr. Parent and his spouse from selling, transferring, assigning,
      or
      otherwise disposing of up to approximately 123,000,000 shares of our stock
      in
      their possession. After a hearing, at which the Parents appeared through
      counsel, the Honorable Anna M. Baca granted the motion, conditioned on the
      posting of an $8 million bond. We did not post the bond, and the TRO was
      subsequently dissolved.




On
      or
      about December 9, 2004, Mr. Parent and fellow GoldSpring directors Jerrie W.
      Gasch and Purnendu K. Rana Medhi purportedly seized control of our company.
      Afterward, the Parent-led GoldSpring purported to fire Greenberg Traurig, LLP,
      or GT, as counsel for our company in this litigation and to hire Ronan &
Firestone, PLC, or Ronan, as substitute counsel. Thereafter, on December 22,
      2004, Ronan filed a stipulation to dismiss the lawsuit, purportedly on behalf
      of
      our company. Also on December 22, 2004, the Parents filed their answer, in
      which
      they generally denied the allegations of the complaint.




On
      December 29, 2004, GT filed a motion on behalf of our company to strike the
      stipulation to dismiss that Ronan had filed. Judge Baca heard oral argument
      on
      the motion on February 2, 2005 and took the matter under advisement. Further
      oral argument was heard on March 22, 2005. In light of the preliminary
      injunction that was issued in a related shareholder action in federal district
      court (discussed below), and the resolutions passed by our Board of Directors
      on
      February 22, 2005, Judge Baca granted the motion in an Order dated March 22,
      2005 and struck Ronan’s purported stipulation to dismiss.




F-11


In
      the
      same ruling, Judge Baca said that “there are serious conflicts in the continued
      representation of the Parents in this lawsuit by Gust Rosenfeld.” The Court was
      referring to the fact that Parent had hired Gust Rosenfeld as our counsel after
      purportedly taking over our company on December 9, 2004. The Court therefore
      ordered further briefing on whether Gust Rosenfeld should be disqualified as
      the
      Parents’ counsel. Shortly thereafter, on March 28, 2005, Gust Rosenfeld
      voluntarily withdrew as the Parents’ counsel. The Parents have since retained
      new counsel. The discovery process is currently ongoing.




Mr.
      Treminio has since been dismissed from the suit in accordance with the terms
      of
      a prior settlement agreement between Mr. Treminio and GoldSpring, Inc..
      Mr. Shaw filed an answer, *in
      pro per* ,
      on
      April 6, 2005, and generally denied the allegations of the complaint. Mr.
      Haswell, Mr. Doyle and Ecovery, Inc. have filed answers and generally denied
      the
      allegations of the complaint.




***The
      Federal Court Case***




*Background*




Stephen
      B. Parent and several others purporting to represent a majority of the
      shareholders of our company adopted Consent Resolutions in Lieu of a Special
      Meeting of Shareholder’s dated December 9, 2004, and Mr. Parent, Jerrie W.
      Gasch, and Purnendu K. Rana Medhi, each of whom served as a director of our
      company until Mr. Medhi’s resignation in April 2005, adopted Directors’ Consent
      Resolutions (together the “December Consent Resolutions”) dated December 10,
      2004. Taken together, the December Consent Resolutions, by their purported
      terms, removed John F. Cook, Robert T. Faber, Leslie L. Cahan, Todd S. Brown,
      Christopher L. Aguilar, Stanley A. Hirschman, and Phil E. Pearce as directors,
      rescinded the restructuring of a $10 million financing transaction entered
      into
      in March 2004, removed Mr. Faber as President of our company, named Mr. Parent
      as President of our company and his wife as Secretary of our company, designated
      Mr. Parent as the sole signing officer of our company’s bank accounts, and
      terminated our company’s legal counsel.




On
      December 22, 2004, Robert T. Faber and Leslie L. Cahan (collectively, the
“plaintiffs”), who are shareholders and directors of our company, filed a
      lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona,
      entitled Robert T. Faber, et al. v. Stephen B. Parent, et al., No.
      CV04-2960-PHX-EHC (“the Litigation”). The plaintiffs asserted claims in both
      their individual capacities and derivatively, on behalf of our company, against
      directors Stephen B. Parent, Jerrie W. Gasch, and Purnendu K. Rana Medhi
      (collectively, the “defendants”), alleging that, by adopting the Consent
      Resolutions, the defendants had unlawfully orchestrated an illegal coup to
      wrest
      control of our company from its current officers and directors. As discussed
      below, Messrs. Gasch and Medhi no longer support the Parent-led
      board.




*The
      Temporary Restraining Order*




Following
      a hearing on December 22, 2004, at which the Court heard evidence and argument
      of counsel, the Honorable Earl H. Carroll issued a December 23, 2004 Order
      Granting Plaintiffs’ Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, or TRO. The TRO
      precluded defendants and their agents from (1) making any withdrawals from
      any
      bank accounts of our company, other than reasonable withdrawals necessary to
      the
      daily operations of the business; (2) rescinding or interfering in any way
      with
      any transactions approved by our company’s Board of Directors prior to December
      9, 2004; (3) entering into any contracts or agreements with third parties on
      behalf of our company or disposing of or transferring any property or assets
      of
      our company; and (4) issuing or otherwise transferring any stock or debentures.




The
      Court
      subsequently continued the TRO through February 15, 2005 and confirmed that
      none
      of the defendants were to receive any payments from our company during the
      pendency of the TRO. Despite the Court’s Order, the defendants have since
      produced business records of our company demonstrating that, after adopting
      the
      December Consent Resolutions, the defendants arranged for our company to pay
      them a collective total of $38,721, including $20,869 in payments to Stephen
      Parent.




*The
      Preliminary Injunction and Notice of Appeal*




F-12


Following
      additional hearings in which the Court heard witness testimony and evidence,
      the
      Court issued an Order on February 15, 2005 granting plaintiffs’ Motion for a
      Preliminary Injunction. The Preliminary Injunction ordered the reinstatement
      of
      our company’s Board of Directors as it existed prior to December 10, 2004. As a
      result of the Court’s Order, John F. Cook, Robert T. Faber, Christopher L.
      Aguilar, Todd S. Brown, Leslie L. Cahan, Stanley A. Hirschman, and Phil E.
      Pearce have been reinstated as directors. Stephen B. Parent, Jerrie W. Gasch,
      and Purnendu K. Rana Medhi remained directors until Mr. Medhi’s resignation in
      April 2005. The Court’s February 15 Order also stayed the implementation of the
      Consent Resolutions, and directed us to hold a special shareholders meeting
      within 30 days.




In
      concluding that the Preliminary Injunction should issue, the Court stated,
“The
      Court is specifically concerned about the irreparable injury that would occur
      to
      GoldSpring and its shareholders and investors if Defendants [Mr. Parent, his
      wife, Jerrie W. Gasch, and Purnendu K. Rana Medhi] are permitted to manage
      the
      corporation. There is substantial evidence of Parent’s wrongdoing in his former
      position as CEO of GoldSpring, such as his misappropriation of corporate assets
      for his personal use. The Defendants’ attempt to rescind the [financing]
      transaction that was approved at the Board of Directors meeting on November
      30,
      2004 could adversely impact GoldSpring’s ability to meet its obligations under
      the agreement. Rescission of the refinancing transaction would prove detrimental
      for GoldSpring because the corporation would be forced to pay the $200,000.00
      monthly penalty for failing to file the S-1 Registration with the SEC within
      ninety (90) days of the March 22, 2004 agreement between GoldSpring and [various
      investors]. This penalty had accrued to over $1,000,000.00 as of November 30,
      2004.”




Thereafter,
      the defendants filed a motion for reconsideration in which they asked that
      the
      Preliminary Injunction be dissolved or, alternatively, that the Court clarify
      the injunction order and require the plaintiffs to post a bond. On February
      25,
      2005, the Court held a hearing on the defendants’ motion for reconsideration.
      The Court denied the defendants’ requests to dissolve the Preliminary Injunction
      and to require the posting of a bond. In response to defendants’ request for
      clarification of the injunction order, the Court ordered that our company is
      not
      to issue additional shares prior to the special shareholders meeting, and that
      the record date for the special shareholders meeting shall be December 9,
      2004.




Our
      company believed that this ruling would disenfranchise the investors that
      participated in the November 30, 2004 restructuring transaction by preventing
      them from receiving and voting the shares they are entitled to receive through
      the conversion of their notes. A December 9, 2004 record date would also have
      disenfranchised all shareholders that acquired their stock on the open market
      after December 9, 2004.




Therefore,
      on February 28, 2005, our company filed a legal memorandum with the Court
      addressing these issues. In it, we pointed out that applicable federal
      securities laws require us to provide shareholders with current financial
      statements, which will not be available until March 31, 2005, and that Florida
      law and our company’s bylaws require that a record date be fixed in advance
      rather than in the past. On March 14, 2005, the Court held a hearing on these
      issues. After hearing argument of counsel, the Court indicated that it agreed
      with our position.




Accordingly,
      on March 17, 2005, the Court vacated its earlier Order directing us to hold
      a
      special shareholders meeting and setting December 9, 2004 as the record date
      for
      purposes of that meeting. The Court also vacated the provision of its February
      25 Order prohibiting us from issuing additional shares. Finally, the Court
      reaffirmed its earlier Order reinstating our Board of Directors as it existed
      prior to December 10, 2004. In doing so, the Court ordered that the reinstated
      board shall remain in place until the Court orders otherwise.




On
      April
      13, 2005, a notice of appeal was filed on behalf of defendants (the Parents,
      the
      Gaschs, and the Medhis) seeking to reverse the Court’s March 17 Order. On April
      21, 2005, the Gaschs moved to dismiss their appeal. On June 10, 2005, the
      defendants (the Parents) filed their opening appellate brief. The plaintiffs
      filed their response brief on August 16, 2005. The defendants’ response brief
      was filed on October 3, 2005. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals held oral
      arguments on the appeal on January 12, 2006.




On
      January 23, 2006, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
      issued a Memorandum disposition in the matter of *Faber
      v. Parent* ,
      stating, “We reverse the district court’s decision to grant the preliminary
      injunction for failure to comply with the requirements of Rule 52(a). However,
      the injunction shall remain intact for a reasonable time not to exceed 90 days
      from the date on which this disposition is filed or until an earlier date on
      which the district court enters a succeeding preliminary injunction. During
      this
      time, the district court may issue a new preliminary injunction if, after
      undertaking the required analysis and making the necessary findings, it deems
      such an injunction appropriate.” The preliminary injunction, issued by the
      district court on February 15, 2005, had reinstated GoldSpring’s Board of
      Directors as it existed prior to Mr. Parent’s takeover of GoldSpring on December
      10, 2004. The Memorandum disposition also stated that, “If, after further
      proceedings, the district court does not order a new preliminary injunction,
      we
      leave it to the district court to restore, as near as possible, the situation
      that would have existed if the preliminary injunction had never been granted.”

*The
      Investors’ Motion to Intervene*




On
      March
      2, 2005, Longview Fund LP, Longview Equity Fund, Longview International Equity
      Fund, and Alpha Capital AG (collectively, the “Investors”) moved to intervene in
      the litigation. In doing so, the Investors sought to dissolve the portion of
      the
      Court’s February 25, 2005 Order that prohibited our company from issuing stock
      to them under the refinancing transaction.




In
      their
      motion to intervene, the Investors alleged that they are holders of more than
      $3
      million of Convertible Notes issued by us, which they received pursuant to
      the
      transaction in March 2004. The Investors further alleged that, under the terms
      of the Convertible Notes, they are entitled to convert the notes, in whole
      or in
      part, into our stock at any time. The Investors contended that, by preventing
      us
      from issuing stock, the Court’s February 25 Order is a de facto preliminary
      injunction in favor of the defendants, and effectively deprived the Investors
      of
      much of the benefits to which they are contractually entitled. Because the
      defendants had not met the requirements for injunctive relief, the Investors
      argued, that portion of the Court’s Order should be dissolved. Alternatively,
      the Investors asked the Court to order the defendants to post a $3.5 million
      bond to protect the Investors against any damages stemming from the de facto
      injunction.




On
      March
      7, 2005, the defendants filed their response to the Investors’ motion. They
      contended that Judge Carroll’s February 25 Order was not an injunction and, in
      any event, that the Investors had failed to meet the requirements for
      intervention. Accordingly, they argued that the motion should be denied.




On
      March
      18, 2005, the Court issued an Order denying the Investors’ motion as moot. The
      Court reasoned that, since its March 17 Order lifted the prohibition on the
      issuance of additional shares of our stock, the Investors had, in essence,
      already received the relief they requested in their motion to intervene.
      Therefore, the issues raised in that motion had become moot.




*The
      Company’s Motion Re: the Gust Rosenfeld Retainer*




After
      purportedly seizing control of our company on December 9, 2004, Stephen Parent,
      acting as the putative president of GoldSpring, authorized the payment of a
      $250,000 retainer to the law firm of Gust Rosenfeld using funds of our company.
      On March 1, 2005, we filed a motion for an order requiring Gust Rosenfeld to
      provide a detailed accounting of its use of these funds and to refund the unused
      portion.




On
      March
      14, 2005, Gust Rosenfeld sent us a refund check for $83,903.38 and a “ledger”
showing how the firm spent the other $166,096.62. Among other things, the ledger
      revealed that Gust Rosenfeld withdrew approximately $109,000 as payment for
      its
      attorneys’ fees and costs. The ledger also showed payments to other lawyers and
      outside vendors totaling approximately $57,000. Included in this amount were
      two
“refund” payments to Stephen Parent totaling $21,000.




We
      have
      filed a reply brief asking the Court to order Gust Rosenfeld to provide a more
      detailed accounting of its expenditures, including billing invoices for legal
      services it purportedly rendered to our company. We have also asked the Court
      to
      require Gust Rosenfeld to provide a written explanation for the payments to
      other lawyers and outside vendors, as well as the so-called refund payments
      to
      Parent.




*The
      “New” Consent Resolutions*




On
      March
      21, 2005, defendants Stephen and Judith Parent filed a “Motion for Order” asking
      the Court to remove certain directors of our company’s Board of Directors.
      Attached to the motion was a “Consent in Lieu of a Special Meeting of the
      Shareholders of GoldSpring, Inc.,” dated March 18, 2005 (the “March Consent”).
      The March Consent was nearly identical to the one adopted by the Parents and
      others on December 9, 2004. It purported to remove directors Robert T. Faber,
      John F. Cook, Leslie L. Cahan, Todd S. Brown, Christopher L. Aguilar, Stanley
      A.
      Hirschman, and Phillip E. Pierce as directors of our company. The March Consent
      was signed by shareholders Stephen Parent; Judith Parent; Aztech Environmental
      Industries, Inc.; Jasmine House, LLC; Frontline 2001, LLC; Jubilee Investment
      Trust PLC; Ronald M. Haswell; Mark and Jennifer Ward; Walter T. Plummer; Lynn
      Zollinger; Maia Ray; and Rita Hardy.




F-14





On
      March
      25, 2005, our company and the plaintiffs filed a joint response to the Parents’
Motion for Order. In it, we argued that (1) the shareholders who signed the
      March Consent did not hold a majority of our company’s stock, which rendered the
      Consent ineffective; (2) the Parents solicited more than ten shareholders,
      and
      therefore violated Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 14a; and (3) the
      Parents cannot obtain the relief they seek because they have not asserted an
      affirmative claim in court.




The
      Parents filed a reply and supplemental reply on March 20, 2005, and April 11,
      2005, respectively. In the reply, the Parents argued that the shareholders
      who
      signed the Consent do, in fact, hold a majority of the outstanding shares as
      of
      the date it was executed, and that any shares issued after that date are not
      to
      be counted. They also denied having solicited more than ten persons and denied
      any obligation to state an affirmative claim before seeking the relief asked
      for
      in their motion. In their supplemental reply, the Parents referred to our
      company’s recent Form 8-K filing (the “8-K”) with the Securities and Exchange
      Commission. In the 8-K, we disclosed that our company had issued (1) 59,203,918
      shares of restricted common stock in connection with the Settlement Agreement
      Regarding Failure to File a Registration Statement; (2) six secured convertible
      notes in an aggregate amount of $6,584,005 in connection with the Settlement
      Agreement Regarding Mandatory Redemption Payment; and (3) convertible notes
      in
      the amount of $403,175 in connection with the Settlement Agreement Regarding
      Failure to deliver shares due upon conversion. The Parents contended that the
      transactions referred to in the 8-K constituted an unfair dilution of the
“non-Merriman shareholders’” stock holdings.




On
      April
      20, 2005, we filed a Supplemental Notice to inform the Court that Messrs. Gasch
      and Medhi do not support the March Consent. In addition, we informed the Court
      that Mr. Gasch had signed a Declaration that (1) Mr. Gasch never agreed to
      serve
      on the proposed board of directors contemplated by the March Consent, (2) that
      Mr. Gasch does not support the March Consent and, if the March Consent
      constituted a valid shareholder resolution (which we do not believe) Mr. Gasch
      would immediately vote to reinstate the entire Board of Directors as it
      currently exists, (3) Mr. Gasch denounces and rescinds the purported Director’s
      Consent Resolutions dated December 10, 2004 and no longer supports any of the
      resolutions or purported corporate actions contemplated in that purported
      consent, and (4) Mr. Gasch has terminated Gust Rosenfeld as his counsel because
      he no longer wishes to be associated with or jointed represented by Mr. Parent.
      Mr. Medhi also informed us that he resigned as a director of our Board of
      Directors as currently constituted and as a member of the board of directors
      designated by earlier consent resolution. We informed the Court that these
      developments constitute additional reasons to deny the Parents’
motion.





On
      January 23, 2006, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
      issued a Memorandum disposition in the matter of *Faber
      v. Parent* ,
      reversing the Preliminary Injunction, which had been granted by the United
      States District Court for the District of Arizona on February 15, 2005 for
      Mr.
      Parent’s failure to comply with the requirements of Rule 52(a). The Court of
      Appeals ordered that the injunction shall remain intact for a reasonable period
      of time not to exceed 90 days or until an earlier date on which the district
      court enters a succeeding preliminary injunction. The Court of Appeals remanded
      the case to the district court to allow the district court to conduct further
      proceedings, which may include issuing a new preliminary
      injunction.





SALE
      OF
      ASSETS




On
      March
      21, 2006, the Company completed the sale of its Canadian subsidiaries, Clear
      Hills Iron Ltd. and Peace River Energy Ltd. to CaNev Resources, a Canadian
      Corporation. The assets divested in the transaction include 32 industrial
      (non-energy) mineral permits covering approximately 800 square miles in northern
      Alberta, Canada. In consideration for the assets, GoldSpring will receive
      CDN$1.1 million. CDN$100,000 of the sales price will be paid in cash, and the
      balance will be paid through a three percent production royalty.




EMPLOYMENT
      AGREEMENTS




F-15


We
      have
      an employment agreement with Robert T. Faber extending through August 2009.
      The
      employment agreement provides for Mr. Faber to serve as our Chief Financial
      Officer and was not modified after Mr. Faber was appointed President and Chief
      Executive Officer. The employment agreement provides for base compensation
      of
      $120,000 per year, subject to increases to up to $200,000 per year if our
      company achieves designated revenue levels. The employment agreement also
      provides for incentive compensation as determined by our board of directors.
      In
      addition, the employment agreement provides for Mr. Faber to be granted options
      to purchase shares of our common stock at prices ranging from $.50 to $2.00
      per
      share. Mr. Faber is entitled to a use of a company car, contributions to a
      401(k) plan, and life insurance coverage.




The
      employment agreement with Mr. Faber contains a covenant not to compete with
      our
      company for a period of two years immediately following termination of
      employment. We may terminate Mr. Faber for “cause” as defined in the employment
      agreement. We will be required to pay Mr. Faber’s compensation during the term
      of the agreement if we terminate him without cause.




**NOTE
      7 - NOTE FINANCINGS**





*Convertible
      Debentures-Investors*




We
      completed a private placement of securities transaction during March 2004
      (the “March Offering”). In connection with the offering, we received gross
      proceeds of $10 million from a group of accredited institutional and individual
      investors. Subsequent to the closing of the March Offering, we failed to meet
      certain provisions of the offering that required for us to provide for an
      effective registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
      Commission.





As
      a
      result, and effective November 30, 2004, we restructured the private
      placement transaction and entered into a new subscription agreement. In
      connection with the restructuring, we exchanged 8% convertible notes in the
      aggregate principal amount of approximately $11.1 million and four-year
      warrants to purchase approximately 27.8 million shares of common stock at
      an exercise price of $0.20 per share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments,
      for
      21,739,129 shares of common stock and 21,739,129 warrants to purchase shares
      of
      common stock issued in the March Offering. The principal amount of the
      convertible notes consist of the original $10.0 million investment plus
      approximately $1.1 million of accrued penalties associated with the delay
      in effectiveness of our registration statement covering the resale of the shares
      of common stock held by the investors. (See Notes 9 and 12).




The
      8%
      convertible notes mature in November 2006. We must make monthly payments of
      102% of 1/20 th of the
      initial principal amount, together with accrued interest. We have the option
      to
      repay such amounts in shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal
      to
      85% of the average of the five lowest closing bid prices of our common stock
      during the 20 trading days preceding each payment date. We may prepay the
      outstanding principal amount by paying the holders of the notes 115% of the
      then-outstanding principal amount. Each holder of notes may convert the notes
      into shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.20 per share,
      which is subject to anti-dilution adjustments. During the first 20 days
      following the closing date, the conversion price may be reduced to a price
      equal
      to 70% of the average of the five lowest closing prices of our common stock
      during the 20 trading days preceding the closing date.




On
      April
      1, 2005, we failed to make our first payment on the notes and were in default
      of
      the terms of the convertible notes. On December 20, 2004, we received notice
      from holders of approximately $3.8 million of convertible notes of their
      intention to convert into shares of our common stock. The applicable conversion
      rate was approximately $0.11 per share, and we were obligated to issue
      33,817,594 shares of our common stock. Under the terms of the subscription
      agreement, we had three business days following receipt of the notice of
      conversion of notes to deliver to the note holders’ free-trading common stock
      certificates (the “Delivery Date”). Although the shares were due to be delivered
      in December 2004, they were not delivered until 2005. As a result of our failure
      to deliver shares, we were subject to liquidated damages that were settled
      by
      the issuance of notes payable to the investors.




*Convertible
      Debentures-Mandatory Redemption Payment*




The
      failure to deliver the shares by the Delivery Date resulted in liquidated
      damages of 1% of the note principal amount being converted per business day
      after the Delivery Date. We did not deliver the share certificates within the
      period required in the subscription agreement and as a result, in March of
      2005,
      John V. Winfield, a major shareholder and note holder elected to demand payment
      of approximately $6.9 million pursuant to the mandatory redemption payment
      provisions of the subscription agreement and forfeit his right to receive the
      shares in favor of the payment.




F-16


On
      March
      31, 2005, we entered into a Settlement Agreement (“Settlement”) with the Mr.
      Winfield and agreed to convert the mandatory redemption payment into six
      Convertible Debentures (“the Debentures”). Accordingly, we accrued a liability
      for approximately $6.9 million and reduced our paid-in-capital account for
      approximately $3.5 million (See Note 12). The Debentures are subject to various
      covenants and conditions, including, but not limited to anti-dilution rights
      and
      protective rights.




The
      Debentures accrue interest at 12% per annum and are payable in monthly
      installments of principal and interest over a 24 month period with the remaining
      entire balance of unpaid principal and interest due on March 31, 2007. The
      debentures are subject to the following terms:




*Conversion
      Rights*




The
      Debentures are convertible, in all or in part, into shares of our common stock
      (“Conversion Shares”) at any time. The conversion price shall be equal to the
      lesser of: (i) eighty-five percent (85%) of the average of the five (5) lowest
      closing bid prices of the common stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the
      twenty (20) trading days preceding the date the Company was obligated to pay
      the
      mandatory redemption Payment; and (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the average
      of the five (5) lowest closing bid prices of the common stock as reported by
      Bloomberg L.P. for the twenty (20) trading days preceding the date of any such
      conversion; provided , however ,
      until
      the effective date of the registration statement (see below), the conversion
      price shall be fifty-percent (50%) of the average of the five (5) lowest closing
      bid prices of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the twenty
      (20)
      trading days preceding the date of any such conversion. In no event shall the
      conversion price be higher than (i) $0.1131 and (ii) the conversion price of
      the
      convertible notes (See Note 6), as adjusted from time to time, whichever is
      lower.




*Security
      Agreement*




Pursuant
      to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the Debentures are granted a priority
      collateralized position, second only to our note payable to the Brockbank Trust
      in substantially all of our assets.




*Mandatory
      Registration Rights*




The
      terms
      of the Debenture agreement require that we must file with the Securities and
      Exchange Commission on a Form SB-2 registration statement, or such other form
      that we are eligible to use, to register the Conversion Shares, together with
      any other shares of Common stock issuable hereunder for resale and distribution
      under the 1933 and cause to be filed not later than April 30, 2005 and declared
      effective not later than June 30, 2005. If we fail to make effective a
      registration statement we are subject to liquidated damages, an amount equal
      to
      two percent (2%) for each thirty (30) days or part thereof, thereafter of the
      principal amount of the Debenture remaining unconverted and purchase price
      of
      Conversion Shares issued upon conversion of the Debenture owned of record by
      the
      holder. The Company must pay the liquidated damages in cash or an
      amount ****** equal
      to
      two hundred percent of such cash liquidated damages if paid in additional shares
      of registered un-legended free ****** trading
      shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2005 we had failed to make any
      monthly payments on the debentures and are in default.




On
      December 20, 2004, we received notice from holders of approximately $500,000
      of
      convertible notes payable of their intention to convert into shares of our
      common stock. As a result, we recorded the issuance of 4,243,791 shares on
      December 20, 2004. We were required to deliver certificates representing
      unrestricted, free-trading stock within three business days of our receipt
      of
      the notices of conversion (the “Delivery Date”). The failure to deliver the
      shares by the Delivery Date resulted in liquidated damages of 1% of the Note
      principal amount being converted per business day after the Delivery Date.
      Our
      former Chief Executive Officer did not deliver the stock certificates within
      the
      required period. On March 18, 2005 we delivered the certificates representing
      the shares of common stock to these converting note holders. The 84 -day delay
      in delivering the shares resulted in liquidated damages of $403,175. We
      recognized these damages during the fourth quarter of 2004 and the first quarter
      of 2005. We issued convertible notes for the amount of liquidated damages
      due




F-17


Accordingly,
      at March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2005, we classified the following convertible
      debentures as current liabilities as follows:

*Promissory
      Notes Payable—July Financing*




In
      July
      of 2005, we borrowed $1.2 Million from companies controlled by John V. Winfield,
      a major shareholder. Proceeds from the notes were reduced by a 33.3% original
      issue discount and other origination fees. Net proceeds received by the Company
      from the borrowing were $740,000. The notes accrue interest at 15% per annum
      and
      are payable in monthly installments of principal and interest over a 24 month
      period with the remaining entire balance of unpaid principal and interest due
      on
      July 15, 2007.




The
      notes
      are collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets subject to the
      security interest of the Brockbank Trust. As of March 31, 2006 we had failed
      to
      make any monthly payments on the notes and are in default.




*Promissory
      Notes Payable—September Financing*




In
      September of 2005, we borrowed $300,000 from Longview Fund L.P., a major
      shareholder. Proceeds from the notes were reduced by a 33.3% original issue
      discount and other origination fees. Net proceeds received by the Company from
      the borrowing were $165,500.The notes accrue interest at 15% per annum and
      are
      payable in monthly installments of principal and interest over a 24 month period
      with the remaining entire balance of unpaid principal and interest due on July
      15, 2007. The notes are collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s
      assets subject to the security interest of the Brockbank Trust and the Winfield
      convertible debentures of March 2005.




The
      notes
      share a security interest with the Winfield notes issued in July 2004. As of
      March 31, 2006 we had failed to make any monthly payments on the notes and
      are
      in default.




*Promissory
      Notes Payable—December Financing*




In
      December of 2005, we borrowed $575,000 from Longview Fund L.P., a major

      and was payable including accrued interest on or before March 15, 2006 and
      has
      not been repaid




Accordingly,

**Item

      Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations**





The
      following discussion provides information that we believe is relevant to an
      assessment and understanding of the consolidated results of operations and
      financial condition of our company. It should be read in conjunction with the
      Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes.





The
      following discussion addresses matters we consider important for an
      understanding of our financial condition and results of operations as of and
      for
      the quarter ended March 31, 2006, as well as our future results.





*Overview*





We
      are a
      North American precious metals mining company with an operating gold and silver
      test mine in northern Nevada. Our Company was formed in mid-2003, and we
      acquired the Plum property in November 2003. In our relatively short history,
      we
      secured permits, built an infrastructure and brought the Plum exploration
      project into test mining production. During 2005, we acquired additional
      properties around the Plum project in Northern Nevada, expanding our footprint
      and creating opportunities for exploration. We are an emerging company, looking
      to build on our success through the acquisition of other mineral properties
      in
      North America with reserves and exploration potential that can be efficiently
      put into near-term production. Our objectives are to increase production;
      increase reserves through exploration and acquisitions; expand our footprint
      at
      the Plum mine; and maximize cash flow and the return for our
      shareholders.




We
      are
      starting to experience the benefits of the operational improvement program
      that
      we initiated in 2005, including our first reported net profit for the first
      quarter of 2006. This program began with a complete review of every facet of
      the
      operation to insure maximum efficiency. We have nearly completed our review
      of
      the various processes and have implemented several changes, which have increased
      efficiencies. Most recently, we have made the decision to take over our mining
      operations, which were previously performed by an outside contractor. We plan
      to
      have our mining operation in place by the end of May 2006. Based on our mine
      plan and internal calculations, we anticipate that taking over the mining
      operations will reduce our gold production costs by $40 per ounce, resulting
      in
      a production cost of less than $350 per ounce.




Our
      first
      quarter production has been hampered by inclement weather in northern Nevada
      in
      late 2005 and early 2006. Our Plum Mine received fourteen inches of rain between
      mid-December and the end of February, filling our leach ponds, including our
      one
      hundred year storm pond, nearly to capacity. The high levels of effluents in
      the
      ponds prevented us from adding additional reagents to our leach pads. Because
      we
      were unable to add new material to the pad and put it under leach, we made
      the
      decision to cease mining operations in early-January. Our team at the mine
      did
      an excellent job, in a challenging situation, to insure the environmental
      integrity of our operation. The team worked closely with the regulatory
      authorities throughout this process. In order to resume mining and processing
      with the necessary reagents, the level of effluents in the ponds must be reduced
      through evaporation. We expect to resume normal operations by the end of May
      2006.




Our
      Company has been involved in litigation with its founder since late 2004 when
      he
      attempted a takeover of the Company through a purported consent solicitation
      in
      violation of federal securities laws. On April 18, 2006, the United States
      District Court for the District of Arizona issued an Order Granting a
      Preliminary Injunction, which stayed the implementation of the Consent
      Resolutions purportedly passed on December 9, 2004. This preliminary injunction
      removes a serious distraction that has plagued our Company since December 2004.
      We believe this matter is now behind us, allowing us to redirect our human
      and
      capital resources to our current mining operations and further potential
      opportunities to continue to expand our business. The Court’s decision also
      provides clarity to our investors and shareholders regarding control and
      direction of the Company. With the Federal Court nearly litigation behind us,
      we
      are actively seeking financing to meet our working capital needs and fuel our
      growth




***Results
      of Operations and Operational Plan***




Our
      Plum
      Mine, which is located in Storey County, Nevada, went into test mining
      production in late third quarter 2004. We have not established reserves on
      this
      exploration project. Therefore, all of our activities on this property are
      considered test mining or exploratory in nature. One of our top priorities
      is to
      improve efficiencies and increase test mining production at our Plum Mine.
      In
      March 2005, we initiated a program to improve the operational efficiency of
      our
      mining operation. As part of this program, we consolidated our corporate office
      with the Plum Mine office. We also made improvements to our processing plant
      and
      took over crushing operations from our third-party contractor, reducing costs
      and increasing our control over the crushing process. Our improvement program
      continued throughout the year. In November 2005, we retained licensed mining
      engineer Jim Golden to conduct a comprehensive review of all aspects of the
      Plum
      Mine operation, including the overall mine plan, with the objective of further
      improving efficiency, increasing production, and reducing costs. Mr. Golden
      has
      over twenty years of experience in the mining industry, including ten years
      with
      Peter Kiewit’s mining division, where he was a district manager. Since 1990, Mr.
      Golden has owned his own consulting firm, where he has provided consulting
      services throughout the world for over fifty mining companies. We have also
      assembled a team of professional mining consultants, who are recognized experts
      in their respective disciplines, to assist in the process of reviewing the
      operation. The team includes Jeff Butwell, a metallurgist; John Esser, an
      electrical engineer; Dennis Anderson, a geologic, soils and environmental
      engineer; and Stephen Russell, a geologist with twenty-five years of
      comprehensive mining experience. Furthermore Mine Development and Associates
      of
      Reno, Nevada is expected to complete a detailed mine plan and a reserve report
      for the Plum Mine by the end of May 2006. Recent changes have included revising
      the mine plan to reflect the current higher gold prices; adding various
      efficiencies in the processing area; and re-positioning personnel to maximize
      overall performance. The mine plan and reserve report are the culmination of
      a
      twelve-month undertaking by our Company and Mine Development & Associates.
      In a further effort to reduce costs and increase efficiencies, we have decided
      to take over the mining operations from our outside contractor. We expect to
      complete this transition by the end of May 2006. Based on our mine plan and
      internal calculations, we anticipate that taking over the mining operations
      will
      reduce our gold production costs by $40 per ounce, resulting in a production
      cost of less than $350 per ounce.

Our
      first
      quarter production has been hampered by inclement weather in northern Nevada
      in
      late 2005 and early 2006. Our Plum Mine received fourteen inches of rain between
      mid-December and the end of February, filling our leach ponds, including our
      one
      hundred year storm pond, nearly to capacity. The high levels of effluents in
      the
      ponds prevented us from adding additional reagents to our leach pads. Because
      we
      were unable to add new material to the pad and put it under leach, we made
      the
      decision to cease mining operations in early-January. Our team at the mine
      did
      an excellent job, in a challenging situation, to insure the environmental
      integrity of our operation. The team worked closely with the regulatory
      authorities throughout this process. In order to resume mining and processing
      with the necessary reagents, the level of effluents in the ponds must be reduced
      through evaporation. We expect to resume normal operations by the end of May
      2006.




We
      also
      plan to continue our exploration program in 2006. In March 2006, we retained
      Larry Martin, a registered geologist, to oversee our exploration program at
      the
      Plum Mine and in the Comstock Lode district. Mr. Martin has over twenty-five
      years of diverse geological and exploration experience in the mining industry.
      He has worked for several major mining enterprises, including Peter Kiewit,
      where he served as manager of geological services. We have allocated a budget
      of
      $500,000 to explore and develop our claims at the Plum Mine. We expect to begin
      exploration in summer of 2006. We intend to target our exploration toward
      replenishing and expanding our mineralized material inventory at our existing
      mine and toward developing new mineral properties. The successful location
      of
      additional mineralized material on the existing property would allow us to
      expand the size and the lifespan of the Plum mining project, exclusive of new
      property acquisitions. It is our belief that we possess an advantage with our
      status as likely the only heap leach gold mining permit holder in the area.
      This
      permit is relatively difficult to obtain, and it is one that we can expand
      to
      include new areas in the event we locate and wish to process new
      deposits.




In
      December 2005, we initiated a review of the invoices of our mining contractor.
      Specifically, we sought to reconcile the volume of material for which we were
      billed with the volume of material that was actually mined. We used an outside
      surveyor to conduct a comprehensive analysis of bank cubic yards mined. The
      results of the survey indicated that we had been over-billed by over $450,000.
      We met with the mining contractor in early 2006 to discuss this issue and
      presented our proposed billing adjustment. The mining contractor has contracted
      an engineering firm to perform an independent analysis of the data generated
      from our surveys to determine the accuracy of our calculations. We anticipate
      a
      resolution of this issue by June of 2006.




In
      March
      21, 2006, we completed the sale of our Canadian subsidiaries, Clear Hills Iron
      Ltd. and Peace River Energy Ltd., to CaNev Resources, a Canadian Corporation.
      The assets divested in the transaction were 32 industrial (non-energy) mineral
      permits covering approximately 800 square miles in northern Alberta, Canada.
      We
      sold these assets for CDN$1.1 million, of which CDN$100,000 was cash with the
      balance being paid through a three percent production royalty. The gain on
      the
      sale of these mineral permits is reflected in Other Income (Expense) under
      Gain
      on sale of fixed assets on the Consolidated Statement of
      Operations.




***Placer
      Claims, Water Rights, and Mineral Permits***




We
      originally became a mineral company through an acquisition of unpatented placer
      mineral claims and the Big Mike copper claims in June 2003 from Ecovery, Inc.
      The transaction had an effectuation date of March 11, 2003. Specifically, that
      acquisition provided us with a number of Nevada-based placer claims, including
      the Gold Canyon and Spring Valley claims, and 17 unpatented lode claims called
      the Big Mike Copper property. This acquisition did not include any real property
      rights. In November 2003, we acquired the Plum mine facility as well as water
      rights that are usable at Plum Mine and the Gold Canyon and Spring Valley placer
      claims. In a separate transaction, we obtained mineral permits in Alberta,
      Canada in May 2004




2


The
      Big
      Mike Copper property is located in Pershing County, Nevada. It covers a total
      of
      310 acres and consists of 17 unpatented lode claims and one placer claim. We
      have not established any proven or probable reserves that meet the requirements
      of SEC Industry Guide 7. We have not completed any exploration activity on
      the
      project. The property includes an open pit, mineralized material in a stockpile
      and waste dumps. We are actively exploring opportunities to bring this project
      into production. The options being considered include finding a joint venture
      partner or selling the property and retaining a production royalty.

During the
      first quarter
      of 2005, we sold 992 ounces of gold at an average price of $ 542 per ounce
      compared to gold sales of 1,192 ounces at an average price of $ 429 per ounce
      for the same period of 2005. Our gold production for the first quarter 2006
      was
      adversely impacted by the weather conditions from mid December 2005 through
      February 2006. The accumulation of precipitation during this period filled
      our
      leach ponds, including our one hundred year storm pond, to capacity preventing
      us from adding additional reagents to our leach pads, which slowed production.
      In early January, we ceased mining since we could not efficiently leach any
      new
      material further reducing production. In spite of these unusual challenges,
      we
      were able to continue processing solution and producing gold during this
      period

      Mining Expenses in the first quarter of 2006 were $ 843,945 less than the first
      quarter of 2005. In early 2005 we initiated an operational improvement program.
      This program focused on enhancing the efficiencies of **e** ach
      of
      our processes as well as insuring we had the right personnel. **** We
      believe we are now starting to experience the benefits of the operational
      improvement program. We expect to realize further improvements in the upcoming
      months.




**General
      and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and March
      31, 2005 were $180,073 and $323,433, respectively. The $143,360 decrease in
      G&A is based primarily upon the relocation of our Corporate office to the
      Plum Mine and the consolidation of functions reducing the number of Corporate
      employees.**




The
      $310,271 variance in consulting and professional services in the first quarter
      2006 when comparing the same period in 2005 reflects a reduction in legal fees.
      In the first quarter 2005, we expensed approximately $180,000 of legal fees
      incurred by our Company’s founder during his purported takeover of our Company
      in December 2004.

The
      liquidated damages included in the tables above stemmed from Non-Registration
      Events Provisions in our November 2004 Subscription Agreement (“Non-Registration
      Provisions”). The Non-Registration Provisions required us to file a registration
      statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than December
      30,
      2004 and to cause the registration statement to be declared effective no later
      than February 14, 2005. Our former Chief Executive Officer withdrew our pending
      registration statement and did not submit a new registration statement. His
      failure to submit the registration statement to the SEC by December 30, 2004
      triggered liquidated damages to be incurred at a rate of two percent (2%) of
      the
      principal amount of the Debenture for each thirty day period or part thereof
      for
      not having an effective Registration Statement. We have the option to pay the
      liquidated damages in cash or common stock. If we choose to pay in stock, we
      are
      required to pay 200% of the liquidated damages amount. Because our Company
      does
      not currently have sufficient funds to pay in cash, we intend to meet this
      obligation by issuing common shares. Thus, the total amount of liquidated
      damages recorded for the third quarter represents 200% of the cash total. The
      liquidated damages ceased when our registration statement became effective
      on
      October 3, 2005.




Interest
      expense for the first quarter of 2006 was $494,537 higher than the same quarter
      of 2005. This variance reflects the issuance of $6,885,184 interest bearing
      note
      issued in March 2005 pursuant to the November 2004 subscription agreement.
      Specifically, we received a mandatory redemption payment demand relating to
      our
      failure to deliver stock certificates representing 29,573,803 shares of our
      common stock. Under the mandatory redemption payment provisions of the November
      2004 subscription agreement, we repurchased the 29,573,803 shares of common
      stock at $0.23 per share, or $6,801,975. We issued a secured convertible note
      in
      the aggregate amount of $6,885,184 with a 12% interest rate for the 29,573,803
      shares and accrued interest. The incremental interest recognized on this note
      for the first quarter 2006 was approximately $300,000. At March 31, 2006, our
      Company had approximately $14,266,028 of outstanding debt bearing an average
      interest rate of 15%, and at March 31, 2005, our Company had approximately
      $15,270,472 of outstanding debt bearing an average interest rate of 12%.




***Liquidity
      and Capital Resources***




We
      are
      actively seeking additional capital to meet our working capital needs and to
      grow our business. We recognize that our cash resources are limited. Our
      continued existence and plans for future growth depend on our ability to obtain
      the capital necessary to operate, through the generation of revenue or the
      issuance of additional debt or equity. In 2005, we raised an aggregate of
      $1,575,000 through five financing transactions. In the first quarter 2006,
      we
      completed two additional financing transaction, which provided us with $400,000
      in funding. While this additional funding may meet our immediate working capital
      needs, if we are not able to generate sufficient revenues and cash flows or
      obtain additional or alternative funding, we will be unable to continue as
      a
      going concern. We have yet to realize an operating profit at our Plum Mine
      location. As disclosed in the report of our independent registered public
      accounting firm in our financial statements included in this Form 10-KSB for
      the
      year ended December 31, 2005, our recurring losses and negative cash flow from
      operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
      concern.


Furthermore,
      the litigation in which our Company has been involved since late 2004 has
      strained the Company’s financial resources. (See Part II, Item 1, “Legal
      Proceedings,” for a detailed discussion.) If we are unable to resolve the
      litigation in the near future, the ongoing legal costs may impact our ability
      to
      continue as a going concern.




In
      the
      first quarter of 2006, we completed additional financing transactions, which
      provided us with $400,000 in funding. In consideration for the funding, we
      issued promissory notes with a term of ninety (90) days and an interest rate
      of
      sixteen percent (16%) per annum. The default interest rate on the note is
      twenty-two percent (22%). The funds were used for working capital and general
      corporate purposes.




In
      April
      2006, we obtained a financing commitment in the amount of $1.8 million from
      a
      group of our existing investors. We expect to close the transaction in the
      next
      90 days, subject to completion of certain closing conditions. Upon closing,
      the
      funds will be deployed to expand our Plum Mine operation in northern Nevada.
      Specifically, we plan to take over the mining operations from our contract
      miner
      and have committed $500,000 to conduct further exploration at the Plum property.
      We believe, with this additional financing, that we have sufficient resources
      to
      operate throughout the next twelve months.




Our
      operations are significantly affected by changes in the market price of gold.
      Gold prices can fluctuate widely and may be affected by numerous factors, such
      as expectations for inflation, levels of interest rates, currency exchange
      rates, central bank sales, forward selling or other hedging activities, demand
      for precious metals, global or regional political and economic crises, and
      production costs in major gold-producing regions, such as South Africa and
      the
      former Soviet Union. The aggregate effect of these factors, all of which are
      beyond our control, is impossible for us to predict. The demand for and supply
      of gold affect gold prices, but not necessarily in the same manner as supply
      and
      demand affect the prices of other commodities. The supply of gold consists
      of a
      combination of new mineral production and existing stocks of bullion and
      fabricated gold held by governments, public and private financial institutions,
      industrial organizations, and private individuals. As the amount produced in
      any
      single year constitutes a small portion of the total potential supply of gold,
      normal variations in current production do not have a significant impact on
      the
      supply of gold or on its price. If gold prices decline substantially, it could
      adversely affect the realizable value of our assets and potential future results
      of operations and cash flow.

      and Procedures**




Based
      on
      the most recent evaluation, which was completed within 90 days of the filing
      of
      this Form 10-QSB, we believe our company’s disclosure controls and procedures
      (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) are effective to ensure
      that information required to be disclosed by us in this report is accumulated
      and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer
      and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
      regarding required disclosure. We have identified conditions as of March 31,
      2006 that might be considered material weaknesses in internal controls that
      include: 1) a lack of segregation of duties in accounting and financial
      reporting activities; and 2) the lack of a sufficient number of qualified
      accounting personnel. We are in the process of taking corrective measures to
      remedy the deficiencies in future periods.

      II - OTHER INFORMATION**





**Item
      1.**  **Legal
      Proceedings**





***The
      State Court Case***




On
      November 9, 2004, we filed a lawsuit in Maricopa County (Arizona) Superior
      Court
      against defendants Stephen B. Parent, Ron Haswell, Walter Doyle, Seth Shaw,
      Antonio Treminio, together with their spouses, and Ecovery, Inc., a Nevada
      corporation, or Ecovery.




The
      12-count complaint alleges claims for violations of Arizona’s racketeering act,
      state-law securities fraud (primary and secondary liability), common-law fraud,
      negligent misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence/gross
      negligence, breach of contract, unjust enrichment/restitution, theft/conversion,
      conspiracy liability, and injunctive relief. In essence, the complaint alleges
      that Stephen Parent misrepresented the value of certain placer mining claims
      that his company, Ecovery, sold to us in 2003 in exchange for approximately
      99,000,000 shares of our stock; that Ecovery no longer had good title to the
      mining claims when they were sold to us; that Mr. Parent and the other
      named defendants conspired to defraud us out of approximately 24,000,000 shares
      of our stock; and that Mr. Parent misappropriated more than $300,000 in company
      funds.




On
      November 29, 2004, we moved for a temporary restraining order, or TRO,
      prohibiting Mr. Parent and his spouse from selling, transferring, assigning,
      or
      otherwise disposing of up to approximately 123,000,000 shares of our stock
      in
      their possession. After a hearing, at which the Parents appeared through
      counsel, the Honorable Anna M. Baca granted the motion, conditioned on the
      posting of an $8 million bond. We did not post the bond, and the TRO was
      subsequently dissolved.




On
      or
      about December 9, 2004, Mr. Parent and fellow GoldSpring directors Jerrie W.
      Gasch and Purnendu K. Rana Medhi purportedly seized control of our company.
      Afterward, the Parent-led GoldSpring purported to fire Greenberg Traurig, LLP,
      or GT, as counsel for our company in this litigation and to hire Ronan &
Firestone, PLC, or Ronan, as substitute counsel. Thereafter, on December 22,
      2004, Ronan filed a stipulation to dismiss the lawsuit, purportedly on behalf
      of
      our company. Also on December 22, 2004, the Parents filed their answer, in
      which
      they generally denied the allegations of the complaint.




On
      December 29, 2004, GT filed a motion on behalf of our company to strike the
      stipulation to dismiss that Ronan had filed. Judge Baca heard oral argument
      on
      the motion on February 2, 2005 and took the matter under advisement. Further
      oral argument was heard on March 22, 2005. In light of the preliminary
      injunction that was issued in a related shareholder action in federal district
      court (discussed below), and the resolutions passed by our Board of Directors
      on
      February 22, 2005, Judge Baca granted the motion in an Order dated March 22,
      2005 and struck Ronan’s purported stipulation to dismiss.




In
      the
      same ruling, Judge Baca said that “there are serious conflicts in the continued
      representation of the Parents in this lawsuit by Gust Rosenfeld.” The Court was
      referring to the fact that Parent had hired Gust Rosenfeld as our counsel after
      purportedly taking over our company on December 9, 2004. The Court therefore
      ordered further briefing on whether Gust Rosenfeld should be disqualified as
      the
      Parents’ counsel. Shortly thereafter, on March 28, 2005, Gust Rosenfeld
      voluntarily withdrew as the Parents’ counsel. The Parents have since retained
      new counsel. The discovery process is currently ongoing.




Mr.
      Treminio has since been dismissed from the suit in accordance with the terms
      of
      a prior settlement agreement between Mr. Treminio and GoldSpring, Inc..
      Mr. Shaw filed an answer, *in
      pro per* ,
      on
      April 6, 2005, and generally denied the allegations of the complaint. Mr.
      Haswell, Mr. Doyle and Ecovery, Inc. have filed answers and generally denied
      the
      allegations of the complaint.




***The
      Federal Court Case***

*Background*




Stephen
      B. Parent and several others purporting to represent a majority of the
      shareholders of our company adopted Consent Resolutions in Lieu of a Special
      Meeting of Shareholder’s dated December 9, 2004, and Mr. Parent, Jerrie W.
      Gasch, and Purnendu K. Rana Medhi, each of whom served as a director of our
      company until Mr. Medhi’s resignation in April 2005, adopted Directors’ Consent
      Resolutions (together the “December Consent Resolutions”) dated December 10,
      2004. Taken together, the December Consent Resolutions, by their purported
      terms, removed John F. Cook, Robert T. Faber, Leslie L. Cahan, Todd S. Brown,
      Christopher L. Aguilar, Stanley A. Hirschman, and Phil E. Pearce as directors,
      rescinded the restructuring of a $10 million financing transaction entered
      into
      in March 2004, removed Mr. Faber as President of our company, named Mr. Parent
      as President of our company and his wife as Secretary of our company, designated
      Mr. Parent as the sole signing officer of our company’s bank accounts, and
      terminated our company’s legal counsel.




On
      December 22, 2004, Robert T. Faber and Leslie L. Cahan (collectively, the
“plaintiffs”), who are shareholders and directors of our company, filed a
      lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona,
      entitled Robert T. Faber, et al. v. Stephen B. Parent, et al., No.
      CV04-2960-PHX-EHC (“the Litigation”). The plaintiffs asserted claims in both
      their individual capacities and derivatively, on behalf of our company, against
      directors Stephen B. Parent, Jerrie W. Gasch, and Purnendu K. Rana Medhi
      (collectively, the “defendants”), alleging that, by adopting the Consent
      Resolutions, the defendants had unlawfully orchestrated an illegal coup to
      wrest
      control of our company from its current officers and directors. As discussed
      below, Messrs. Gasch and Medhi no longer support the Parent-led
      board.




*The
      Temporary Restraining Order*




Following
      a hearing on December 22, 2004, at which the Court heard evidence and argument
      of counsel, the Honorable Earl H. Carroll issued a December 23, 2004 Order
      Granting Plaintiffs’ Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, or TRO. The TRO
      precluded defendants and their agents from (1) making any withdrawals from
      any
      bank accounts of our company, other than reasonable withdrawals necessary to
      the
      daily operations of the business; (2) rescinding or interfering in any way
      with
      any transactions approved by our company’s Board of Directors prior to December
      9, 2004; (3) entering into any contracts or agreements with third parties on
      behalf of our company or disposing of or transferring any property or assets
      of
      our company; and (4) issuing or otherwise transferring any stock or debentures.




The
      Court
      subsequently continued the TRO through February 15, 2005 and confirmed that
      none
      of the defendants were to receive any payments from our company during the
      pendency of the TRO. Despite the Court’s Order, the defendants have since
      produced business records of our company demonstrating that, after adopting
      the
      December Consent Resolutions, the defendants arranged for our company to pay
      them a collective total of $38,721, including $20,869 in payments to Stephen
      Parent.




*The
      Preliminary Injunction and Notice of Appeal*




Following
      additional hearings in which the Court heard witness testimony and evidence,
      the
      Court issued an Order on February 15, 2005 granting plaintiffs’ Motion for a
      Preliminary Injunction. The Preliminary Injunction ordered the reinstatement
      of
      our company’s Board of Directors as it existed prior to December 10, 2004. As a
      result of the Court’s Order, John F. Cook, Robert T. Faber, Christopher L.
      Aguilar, Todd S. Brown, Leslie L. Cahan, Stanley A. Hirschman, and Phil E.
      Pearce have been reinstated as directors. Stephen B. Parent, Jerrie W. Gasch,
      and Purnendu K. Rana Medhi remained directors until Mr. Medhi’s resignation in
      April 2005. The Court’s February 15 Order also stayed the implementation of the
      Consent Resolutions, and directed us to hold a special shareholders meeting
      within 30 days.




In
      concluding that the Preliminary Injunction should issue, the Court stated,
“The
      Court is specifically concerned about the irreparable injury that would occur
      to
      GoldSpring and its shareholders and investors if Defendants [Mr. Parent, his
      wife, Jerrie W. Gasch, and Purnendu K. Rana Medhi] are permitted to manage
      the
      corporation. There is substantial evidence of Parent’s wrongdoing in his former
      position as CEO of GoldSpring, such as his misappropriation of corporate assets
      for his personal use. The Defendants’ attempt to rescind the [financing]
      transaction that was approved at the Board of Directors meeting on November
      30,
      2004 could adversely impact GoldSpring’s ability to meet its obligations under
      the agreement. Rescission of the refinancing transaction would prove detrimental
      for GoldSpring because the corporation would be forced to pay the $200,000.00
      monthly penalty for failing to file the S-1 Registration with the SEC within
      ninety (90) days of the March 22, 2004 agreement between GoldSpring and [various
      investors]. This penalty had accrued to over $1,000,000.00 as of November 30,
      2004.”




Thereafter,
      the defendants filed a motion for reconsideration in which they asked that
      the
      Preliminary Injunction be dissolved or, alternatively, that the Court clarify
      the injunction order and require the plaintiffs to post a bond. On February
      25,
      2005, the Court held a hearing on the defendants’ motion for reconsideration.
      The Court denied the defendants’ requests to dissolve the Preliminary Injunction
      and to require the posting of a bond. In response to defendants’ request for
      clarification of the injunction order, the Court ordered that our company is
      not
      to issue additional shares prior to the special shareholders meeting, and that
      the record date for the special shareholders meeting shall be December 9,
      2004.




6


Our
      company believed that this ruling would disenfranchise the investors that
      participated in the November 30, 2004 restructuring transaction by preventing
      them from receiving and voting the shares they are entitled to receive through
      the conversion of their notes. A December 9, 2004 record date would also have
      disenfranchised all shareholders that acquired their stock on the open market
      after December 9, 2004.




Therefore,
      on February 28, 2005, our company filed a legal memorandum with the Court
      addressing these issues. In it, we pointed out that applicable federal
      securities laws require us to provide shareholders with current financial
      statements, which will not be available until March 31, 2005, and that Florida
      law and our company’s bylaws require that a record date be fixed in advance
      rather than in the past. On March 14, 2005, the Court held a hearing on these
      issues. After hearing argument of counsel, the Court indicated that it agreed
      with our position.




Accordingly,
      on March 17, 2005, the Court vacated its earlier Order directing us to hold
      a
      special shareholders meeting and setting December 9, 2004 as the record date
      for
      purposes of that meeting. The Court also vacated the provision of its February
      25 Order prohibiting us from issuing additional shares. Finally, the Court
      reaffirmed its earlier Order reinstating our Board of Directors as it existed
      prior to December 10, 2004. In doing so, the Court ordered that the reinstated
      board shall remain in place until the Court orders otherwise.




On
      April
      13, 2005, a notice of appeal was filed on behalf of defendants (the Parents,
      the
      Gaschs, and the Medhis) seeking to reverse the Court’s March 17 Order. On April
      21, 2005, the Gaschs moved to dismiss their appeal. On June 10, 2005, the
      defendants (the Parents) filed their opening appellate brief. The plaintiffs
      filed their response brief on August 16, 2005. The defendants’ response brief
      was filed on October 3, 2005. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals held oral
      arguments on the appeal on January 12, 2006.




On
      January 23, 2006, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
      issued a Memorandum disposition in the matter of *Faber
      v. Parent* ,
      stating, “We reverse the district court’s decision to grant the preliminary
      injunction for failure to comply with the requirements of Rule 52(a). However,
      the injunction shall remain intact for a reasonable time not to exceed 90 days
      from the date on which this disposition is filed or until an earlier date on
      which the district court enters a succeeding preliminary injunction. During
      this
      time, the district court may issue a new preliminary injunction if, after
      undertaking the required analysis and making the necessary findings, it deems
      such an injunction appropriate.” The preliminary injunction, issued by the
      district court on February 15, 2005, had reinstated GoldSpring’s Board of
      Directors as it existed prior to Mr. Parent’s takeover of GoldSpring on December
      10, 2004. The Memorandum disposition also stated that, “If, after further
      proceedings, the district court does not order a new preliminary injunction,
      we
      leave it to the district court to restore, as near as possible, the situation
      that would have existed if the preliminary injunction had never been granted.”




On
      April
      18, 2006, the United States District Court for the District of Arizona issued
      an
      Order Granting a Preliminary Injunction in favor of the Plaintiff in the matter
      of Faber
      et al. v. Parent et al., No. CV 04-2960-PHX-EHC .
      The
      Order accomplished the following:




(i)
      it
      stayed the implementation of the Consent Resolutions purportedly passed on
      December 9, 2004 to effect the attempted takeover of the Company by Stephen
      Parent’s group;




(ii)
      it
      denied Defendants’ motion for an Order removing seven current directors from
      Goldspring’s Board (which would have had the effect of allowing Parent to
      rescind the refinancing transaction dated November 30, 2004 with the Merriman
      investors); and




(iii)
      it
      granted GoldSpring’s Motion for an Order requiring the law firm of Gust
      Rosenfeld PLC to provide a detailed accounting of the unreturned portion of
      the
      $250,000 retainer (namely $166,096.62), given to Gust Rosenfeld PLC by Mr.
      Parent in December 2004.




*The
      Investors’ Motion to Intervene*




On
      March
      2, 2005, Longview Fund LP, Longview Equity Fund, Longview International Equity
      Fund, and Alpha Capital AG (collectively, the “Investors”) moved to intervene in
      the litigation. In doing so, the Investors sought to dissolve the portion of
      the
      Court’s February 25, 2005 Order that prohibited our company from issuing stock
      to them under the refinancing transaction.




In
      their
      motion to intervene, the Investors alleged that they are holders of more than
      $3
      million of Convertible Notes issued by us, which they received pursuant to
      the
      transaction in March 2004. The Investors further alleged that, under the terms
      of the Convertible Notes, they are entitled to convert the notes, in whole
      or in
      part, into our stock at any time. The Investors contended that, by preventing
      us
      from issuing stock, the Court’s February 25 Order is a de facto preliminary
      injunction in favor of the defendants, and effectively deprived the Investors
      of
      much of the benefits to which they are contractually entitled. Because the
      defendants had not met the requirements for injunctive relief, the Investors
      argued, that portion of the Court’s Order should be dissolved. Alternatively,
      the Investors asked the Court to order the defendants to post a $3.5 million
      bond to protect the Investors against any damages stemming from the de facto
      injunction.

On
      March
      7, 2005, the defendants filed their response to the Investors’ motion. They
      contended that Judge Carroll’s February 25 Order was not an injunction and, in
      any event, that the Investors had failed to meet the requirements for
      intervention. Accordingly, they argued that the motion should be denied.




On
      March
      18, 2005, the Court issued an Order denying the Investors’ motion as moot. The
      Court reasoned that, since its March 17 Order lifted the prohibition on the
      issuance of additional shares of our stock, the Investors had, in essence,
      already received the relief they requested in their motion to intervene.
      Therefore, the issues raised in that motion had become moot.




*The
      Company’s Motion Re: the Gust Rosenfeld Retainer*




After
      purportedly seizing control of our company on December 9, 2004, Stephen Parent,
      acting as the putative president of GoldSpring, authorized the payment of a
      $250,000 retainer to the law firm of Gust Rosenfeld using funds of our company.
      On March 1, 2005, we filed a motion for an order requiring Gust Rosenfeld to
      provide a detailed accounting of its use of these funds and to refund the unused
      portion.




On
      March
      14, 2005, Gust Rosenfeld sent us a refund check for $83,903.38 and a “ledger”
showing how the firm spent the other $166,096.62. Among other things, the ledger
      revealed that Gust Rosenfeld withdrew approximately $109,000 as payment for
      its
      attorneys’ fees and costs. The ledger also showed payments to other lawyers and
      outside vendors totaling approximately $57,000. Included in this amount were
      two
“refund” payments to Stephen Parent totaling $21,000.




We
      have
      filed a reply brief asking the Court to order Gust Rosenfeld to provide a more
      detailed accounting of its expenditures, including billing invoices for legal
      services it purportedly rendered to our company. We have also asked the Court
      to
      require Gust Rosenfeld to provide a written explanation for the payments to
      other lawyers and outside vendors, as well as the so-called refund payments
      to
      Parent.




*The
      “New” Consent Resolutions*




On
      March
      21, 2005, defendants Stephen and Judith Parent filed a “Motion for Order” asking
      the Court to remove certain directors of our company’s Board of Directors.
      Attached to the motion was a “Consent in Lieu of a Special Meeting of the
      Shareholders of GoldSpring, Inc.,” dated March 18, 2005 (the “March Consent”).
      The March Consent was nearly identical to the one adopted by the Parents and
      others on December 9, 2004. It purported to remove directors Robert T. Faber,
      John F. Cook, Leslie L. Cahan, Todd S. Brown, Christopher L. Aguilar, Stanley
      A.
      Hirschman, and Phillip E. Pierce as directors of our company. The March Consent
      was signed by shareholders Stephen Parent; Judith Parent; Aztech Environmental
      Industries, Inc.; Jasmine House, LLC; Frontline 2001, LLC; Jubilee Investment
      Trust PLC; Ronald M. Haswell; Mark and Jennifer Ward; Walter T. Plummer; Lynn
      Zollinger; Maia Ray; and Rita Hardy.




On
      March
      25, 2005, our company and the plaintiffs filed a joint response to the Parents’
Motion for Order. In it, we argued that (1) the shareholders who signed the
      March Consent did not hold a majority of our company’s stock, which rendered the
      Consent ineffective; (2) the Parents solicited more than ten shareholders,
      and
      therefore violated Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 14a; and (3) the
      Parents cannot obtain the relief they seek because they have not asserted an
      affirmative claim in court.




The
      Parents filed a reply and supplemental reply on March 20, 2005, and April 11,
      2005, respectively. In the reply, the Parents argued that the shareholders
      who
      signed the Consent do, in fact, hold a majority of the outstanding shares as
      of
      the date it was executed, and that any shares issued after that date are not
      to
      be counted. They also denied having solicited more than ten persons and denied
      any obligation to state an affirmative claim before seeking the relief asked
      for
      in their motion. In their supplemental reply, the Parents referred to our
      company’s recent Form 8-K filing (the “8-K”) with the Securities and Exchange
      Commission. In the 8-K, we disclosed that our company had issued (1) 59,203,918
      shares of restricted common stock in connection with the Settlement Agreement
      Regarding Failure to File a Registration Statement; (2) six secured convertible
      notes in an aggregate amount of $6,584,005 in connection with the Settlement
      Agreement Regarding Mandatory Redemption Payment; and (3) convertible notes
      in
      the amount of $403,175 in connection with the Settlement Agreement Regarding
      Failure to deliver shares due upon conversion. The Parents contended that the
      transactions referred to in the 8-K constituted an unfair dilution of the
“non-Merriman shareholders’” stock holdings.

On
      April
      20, 2005, we filed a Supplemental Notice to inform the Court that Messrs. Gasch
      and Medhi do not support the March Consent. In addition, we informed the Court
      that Mr. Gasch had signed a Declaration that (1) Mr. Gasch never agreed to
      serve
      on the proposed board of directors contemplated by the March Consent, (2) that
      Mr. Gasch does not support the March Consent and, if the March Consent
      constituted a valid shareholder resolution (which we do not believe) Mr. Gasch
      would immediately vote to reinstate the entire Board of Directors as it
      currently exists, (3) Mr. Gasch denounces and rescinds the purported Director’s
      Consent Resolutions dated December 10, 2004 and no longer supports any of the
      resolutions or purported corporate actions contemplated in that purported
      consent, and (4) Mr. Gasch has terminated Gust Rosenfeld as his counsel because
      he no longer wishes to be associated with or jointed represented by Mr. Parent.
      Mr. Medhi also informed us that he resigned as a director of our Board of
      Directors as currently constituted and as a member of the board of directors
      designated by earlier consent resolution. We informed the Court that these
      developments constitute additional reasons to deny the Parents’
motion.

**Item
      3.**  **Defaults
      Upon Senior Securities**





In
      connection with our acquisition of the Plum Mining Company, LLC, we issued
      a
      promissory note to the seller for $1 million (the balance of the purchase
      price). At March 31, 2006, the outstanding balance on the Note was $400,000.
      We
      are in default on this Note.




Under
      the
      terms of our November 2004 subscription agreement, we issued 8% convertible
      notes in the aggregate principal amount of $11.1 million to an investor group.
      Under the terms of the notes, our first principal and interest repayment was
      scheduled for April 1, 2005. We are in default on these notes. The default
      interest rate is 12%.




In
      March
      2005, we issued a secured convertible note in the aggregate amount of $6,885,184
      with a 12% interest rate for the 29,573,803 shares and accrued interest due
      under the mandatory redemption payment provisions of our November 2004
      subscription agreement. Payments on this note were scheduled to begin on April
      1, 2005. We are in default on this note, causing the interest rate to increase
      to the default rate of 18%.




On
      July
      15, 2005, we completed a financing transaction, which provided us with $800,000
      in funding. In consideration for the financing, we issued promissory notes
      with
      a face value of $1.2 million, reflecting an original issue discount of
      thirty-three and one-third (33.3%) percent. The term of the notes is two years,
      with an optional extension of one year at the option of the investor. The annual
      interest rate on the notes is 15% of the face value and is payable monthly.
      On
      September 28, 2005, we completed another financing transaction under the same
      terms and conditions as the July 2005 financing. The September 2005 financing
      provided us with $200,000 in funding. We have not made the monthly interest
      payments on these notes, and thus we are in default. The default interest rate
      on these notes is 22%.




During
      the fourth quarter of 2005, we completed three financing transactions, which
      provided us with a total of $575,000 in funding. In consideration for the
      financing, we issued promissory notes with a term of ninety (90) days and an
      interest rate of sixteen percent (16%) per annum. The default interest rate
      on
      the notes is twenty-two percent (22%). These notes had a maturity date of May
      15, 2006, at which time all outstanding principal and interest became due.




We
      are
      working with the above-referenced note holders to cure the defaults. The above
      referenced notes have a total value of approximately $11,141,149 at March 31,
      2006. While failure to reach a resolution would likely cause us to seek external
      funding in order to meet our obligations, there can be no assurance that such
      funding would be available.
