PART I: Global Gold and Van Krikorian Authorize the Filing of a Criminal Complaint in a Civil Dispute.

Skype Me™!
It is September 2010.

The Legal Counsel for Global Gold in Armenia, criminal lawyer Hrayr Ghoukassian, is given a mandate by Van Krikorian, the Corproate Counsel for Global Gold to file a criminal complaint against me (Bill (Vasilios) Mavridis) and  Mr. Azat Vartanyan, the General Manager of Caldera in Armenia.

BACKGROUND
Van Krikorian. the Chairman and CEO of Global Gold Corporation, signed a Letter Agreement with Bil Mavridis, President of Caldera Resources, in December 18, 2009, to form a Joint Venture to develop the Marjan Gold and Silver project in Armenia.

Caldera was to pay $150,000 by closing and $2,850,000 before December 2012. Caldera would be the Operator and responsible for investing $3,000,000 on the project.

Global Gold transfered the license of the Marjan Project to a new Armenian subsidiary, Marjan Mining Company LLC.  Upon closing the shares of Marjan Mining Company LLC would be held by the Joint Venture vehicle, Marjan-Caldera Mining LLC, a Delaware company.

On March 24, 2010 a Joint Venture agreement was finalized between the parties and on June 18, 2010 the transaction was approved byt he TSX Venture exchange. Resolutions were signed that transfered 100% of the shares of Marjan Mining Company in Armenia to the Jont Venture, which was now held 55% by Caldera and 45% by Global Gold.

The resolutions also appointed Bill Mavridis as President of the JV and the Representative of the sole shareholder of Marjan Mining Company, the holder of the license of the Marjan Project. Caldera was also named the operator.

To effect control of the project in Armenia , as Operator Caldera had to prove it controlled the shares of Marjan Mining in Armenia and therefore moved to register the transfer of the shares, as was approved by the resolutions signed between the parties.

From June 18 to August 11, 2010 Caldera kept pushing to register the transfer of Marjan Mining to the Joint Venture in Armenia, to establish local control of the Joint Venture. As per the directions of Mr. Van Krikorian, the JV was deposited with the State Registry of Legal entities in Yerevan, Armenia. On August 11, 2010 the State Registry approved the registration of the shares to the Joint Venture. This was done with the help of Global Gold employee in Armenia.

When that happend Van Krikorian objected claiming he never agreed to do that!

It appears that Mr. Krikorian of Global Gold never had any intent to sell the Marjan project to Caldera, and when he lost control of it in Armenia, he bagan a scheme to take it back.

THE ALLEGED CRIME
Bill Mavridis and Azat Vartanian stole 100% of the shares of Marjan Mining Company from Global Gold, a theft equal to $2,850,000 dollars.

On September 3rd 2010, Mr. Van Krikorian send an email to Bill Mavridis, the President of Calders Resources Inc, claiming Caldera breached the Joint Venture Agreement. But he alledgedly wanted to find a solution between the parties.

What was the solution?

To pretend to find a solution while at the same time initiating a criminal complaint in Armenia claiming I stole the shares of Marjan Mining Company and also organized to sue the Department of Justice of Armenia State Registry office for accepting to register the transfer fo the shares, which was approved by resolution in by Global Gold and Caldera.

Local Villagers at MELIQ, OPPOSE Global Gold Corp's gold mining project in Armenia

The TOUKHAMNUK GOLD MINE License is coming up for renewal on February 28, 2015 and Global Gold Corp (OTCmarkets:GBGD) may lose the license. Frankly they should lose the license since they have failed to meet their contractual obligations under the terms of their mining contract. GBGD, has failed to mine 153,000 tones of ore through open pit operations and 1,095,250 tones od ore through underground mining operations. In fact, according to Government of Armenia RECORDS, GBGD only mined 86,400 tones of ore from open pit operations at the Toukhmanuk gold mine between 2006 - 2012. Nowhere near the 1,259,400 tones of ore required to be mined under the terms of the mining license issued in 2006. Even the local community opposes GBGD's subsidiary, Mego-Gold, to build a third tailings dam in the area to support future plans to operate the mine exclusively as an open pit operation. They failed to follow the terms of the first mining contract and now they want to be rewarded with

GAME OVER: Van Krikorian and Global Gold Corp.

It's time to say goodbye to Global Gold Corp  (pink: GBGD) and its sketchy President,  Van Krikorian . After years of defrauding employees and suppliers in the Republic of Armenia out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, swindling joint venture partners out of over US$12MM, and partially embezzling and money laundering these proceeds, its time to say goodbye to Global Gold Corp (pink: GBGD) and its President, CEO, Chairman, Director and Corporate Counsel,  Van Krikorian . On December 4, 2017, GBGD through the fraudulent actions of its President, Mr. Van Krikorian  along with the complicit support of its Board of Directors, transferred all of GBGD's assets and claims to its officers and directors, consolidated its shares 251:1, ceased becoming a reporting issuer, and went dark, leaving behind US$20,917,023 in liabilities, broken promises. dreams and a trail of fraud. I am sure that this tale is not over.  With the assets of GBGD in the hands of Van Krikorian and

Van Krikorian's TOUKHMANUK Gold Project is BANKRUPT

While visiting the PDAC, the international mining convention in Toronto, I met representatives of the Armenian Government at the Lydian booth. It was confirmed to me that Global Gold's project in Armenia is BANKRUPT. I have always said that the 2 million ounce GOLD resource that Van Krikorian was promoting at TOUKHMANUK was a complete fraud. Global Gold Corp is now defunct and delinquent and no longer files any financial statements. Don't be fooled by the $3.00 price quote, GBGD has rolled-back its shares 251x and now has approximately 386,000 shares outstanding. The company has transferred all its assets to its officers and directors and left $20 million in debts behind. Now its flagship asset is bankrupt, leaving behind unpaid salaries and unpaid bills in Armenia.
