10:55p ET Thursday, March 22, 2001 Dear Friend of GATA and Gold: Here's the text of the invitation to the GATA African Gold Summit that is being mailed to gold mining company executives and government mining ministry officials. While attendance at the summit will be by invitation only, we'll have plenty to tell about what happens there. CHRIS POWELL, Secretary/Treasurer Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee Inc. * * * The Gold-Anti Trust Action Committee cordially invites you to attend the GATA African Gold Summit in Durban, South Africa, on Thursday, May 10, 2001. There will be a reception dinner on the eve of the summit, Wednesday, May 9, at the Durban Hilton Hotel. An array of speakers will present evidence that the price of gold has been manipulated since 1994 by a cartel of bullion banks and a faction of the United States government. Gold has been held hundreds of dollars below its natural equilibrium price. As a result of this collusion, the economies of the gold-producing countries of Africa have suffered severely and unnecessarily. At the conclusion of the summit, GATA will suggest an action plan so that the delegates can see for themselves that our assertions are correct. The gold cartel will not be able to withstand this scrutiny politically, as their manipulation will be exposed to the world. Then the price of gold will soar, resulting in much stronger economic growth for Africa. The program will be finalized in the weeks to come, but it will include presentations by Reginald H. Howe, Frank Veneroso, James Turk, and Peter Hambro. Howe will elaborate on the lawsuit he filed in U.S. District Court in Boston on December 7, 2000, against the Bank for International Settlements, U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, New York Federal Reserve Bank President William J. McDonough, J.P. Morgan & Co. Inc., Chase Manhattan Corp., Citigroup Inc., Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Deutsche Bank AG, and the U.S. treasury secretary. Veneroso will present evidence from the public domain that clearly identifies a reckless and dangerous central bank gold loan structure that far exceeds what is generally understood in the gold industry. The biographies of those who have committed to speak at the summit are attached for your review. A workshop environment will be encouraged so that delegates' questions may be fully addressed. We hope that you will be able to attend, as the outcome of the summit may be historic. Acceptances of attendance should be acknowledged to Rhoda Fowler, GATA African Gold Summit coordinator in Durban, South Africa, on telephone +27 +31 202 1831, fax +27 +31 201 64 98 or email [EMAIL PROTECTED] Her mobile number is 083 301 0064.
