Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) limits disclosure for U.S. reporting purposes to mineral deposits that a company can economically and legally extract or produce.  We use terms such as “reserves,” “resources,” “geologic resources,” “proven,” “probable,” “measured,” “indicated,” or “inferred,” which may not be consistent with the reserve definitions established by the SEC Industry Guide 7.  Laws of foreign countries including Armenia and Chile are not consistent with SEC Industry Guide 7 regarding use of such terms.  We are required to adhere to the mining laws and requirements of the countries we operate in which include developing reserves as well as exploration and mining activities pursuant to laws in the countries where we operate and to be in compliance with license requirements.  We acknowledge that due to the differences in laws of the countries in which we operate and SEC Industry Guide 7, our mining activities are being reported for informational and disclosure purposes based on foreign country requirements but also that the SEC does not recognize any of our properties as having proven or probable reserves established under SEC Industry Guide 7.  Under SEC Industry Guide 7, we can only state that we are in the exploration stage and have found consistencies in mineralization amongst our drilling results, even though we have foreign country approved reserves, resources, mining licenses, and sales of concentrate.

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
(1) GENERAL OVERVIEW
 
Global Gold is currently in the exploration stage. It is engaged in exploration for, and development and mining of, gold, silver, and other minerals in Armenia, Canada and Chile. Until March 31, 2011, the Company's headquarters were located in Greenwich, Connecticut and as of April 1, 2011 the Company’s headquarters are in Rye, NY.  Its subsidiaries and staff maintain offices in Yerevan, Armenia, and Santiago, Chile. The Company was incorporated as Triad Energy Corporation in the State of Delaware on February 21, 1980 and, as further described below, conducted other business prior to January 1, 1995. During 1995, the Company changed its name from Triad Energy Corporation to Global Gold Corporation to pursue certain gold and copper mining rights in the former Soviet Republics of Armenia and Georgia. The Company has not established proven and probable reserves in accordance with SEC Industry Guide 7 at any of its properties.  The Company's stock is publicly traded. The Company employs approximately 100 people globally on a year round basis and an additional 200 people on a seasonal basis.   
 
Although the Company competes with multi-national mining companies which have substantially greater resources and numbers of employees, the Company’s long term presence and the expertise and knowledge of its personnel in Armenia and in Chile allow it to compete with companies with greater resources.
 
In Armenia, the Company’s focus is on the exploration, development and production of gold at the Toukhmanuk property in the North Central Armenian Belt and the Marjan and an expanded Marjan North property.  In addition, the Company is exploring and developing other sites in Armenia, including the Getik property.  The Company also holds royalty and participation rights in other locations in the country through affiliates and subsidiaries.
 
In Chile, the Company is engaged in identifying gold exploration and production opportunities and has a bonus interest in the Pureo property.

In Canada, the Company had engaged in uranium exploration activities in the provinces of Newfoundland and Labrador, but has phased out this activity, retaining a royalty interest in the Cochrane Pond property in Newfoundland.

The Company also assesses exploration and production opportunities in other countries.
 
The subsidiaries of the Company are as follows:
 
On January 24, 2003, the Company formed Global Oro LLC and Global Plata LLC, as wholly owned subsidiaries, in the State of Delaware. These companies were formed to be equal joint owners of a Chilean limited liability company, Minera Global Chile Limitada ("Minera Global"), formed as of May 6, 2003, for the purpose of conducting operations in Chile.  On December 2, 2011, the Company sold these subsidiaries to Amarant Mining Ltd. (“Amarant”).
 
On August 18, 2003, the Company formed Global Gold Armenia LLC ("GGA"), as a wholly owned subsidiary, which in turn formed Global Gold Mining, LLC ("GGM"), as a wholly owned subsidiary, both in the State of Delaware. GGM was qualified to do business as a branch operation in Armenia and owns assets, royalty and participation interests, as well as shares of operating companies in Armenia.
 
On December 21, 2003, GGM acquired 100% of the Armenian limited liability company SHA, LLC (renamed Global Gold Hankavan, LLC ("GGH") as of July 21, 2006), which held the license to the Hankavan and Marjan properties in Armenia.  On December 18, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Caldera outlining the terms of a joint venture on the Company’s Marjan property in Armenia (“Marjan JV”).  On March 12, 2010, GGH transferred the rights, title and interest for the Marjan property to Marjan Mining Company, a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Armenia (“Marjan RA”) which is a wholly owned subsidiary of GGM.   On October 7, 2010, the Company terminated the Marjan JV.  See Legal Matters for an update on the Marjan JV.

On August 1, 2005, GGM acquired 51% of the Armenian limited liability company Mego-Gold, LLC, which is the licensee for the Toukhmanuk mining property and seven surrounding exploration sites.  On August 2, 2006, GGM acquired the remaining 49% interest of Mego-Gold, LLC, leaving GGM as the owner of 100% of Mego-Gold, LLC.  
 
On January 31, 2006, GGM closed a transaction to acquire 80% of the Armenian company, Athelea Investments, CJSC (renamed "Getik Mining Company, LLC") and its approximately 27 square kilometer Getik gold/uranium exploration license area in the northeast Geghargunik province of Armenia.  As of May 30, 2007, GGM acquired the remaining 20% interest in Getik Mining Company, LLC, leaving GGM as the owner of 100% of Getik Mining Company, LLC.  
 
On January 5, 2007, the Company formed Global Gold Uranium, LLC ("Global Gold Uranium"), as a wholly owned subsidiary, in the State of Delaware, to operate the Company's uranium exploration activities in Canada.
 
On August 9, 2007 and August 19, 2007, the Company, through Minera Global, entered agreements to form a joint venture and on October 29, 2007, the Company closed its joint venture agreement with members of the Quijano family (“Quijano”) by which Minera Global assumed a 51% interest in the placer and hard rock gold Madre de Dios and Pureo properties in south central Chile, near Valdivia. The name of the joint venture company is Compania Minera Global Gold Valdivia S.C.M. (“Global Gold Valdivia” or “GGV”).  On August 14, 2009, the Company amended the above agreement whereby Global Gold Valdivia became wholly owned by the Company and retained only the Pureo Claims Block (approximately 8,200 hectares), transferring the Madre De Dios claims block to the sole ownership to members of the Quijano family.  On October 27, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with Conventus Ltd. a BVI corporation (“Conventus”) for the sale of 100% interest in GGV which was amended (with Conventus and Amarant) and was closed on December 2, 2011.  See Description of Properties and Subsequent Events for an update on GGV.
 
On September 23, 2011 “Global Gold Consolidated Resources Limited” was incorporated in Jersey as a 51% subsidiary of the Company pursuant to the April 27, 2011 Joint Venture Agreement with Consolidated Resources.  See Description of Properties (Toukhmanuk and Getik) for more information.

On November 8, 2011 “GGCR Mining, LLC” was formed in Delaware as a 100%, wholly owned, subsidiary of Global Gold Consolidated Resources Limited.
 
The Company is a reporting company and is therefore subject to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and accordingly files its Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Definitive Proxy Statements, Current Reports on Form 8-K, and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

(2) INITIAL ARMENIAN MINING PROJECT
 
In 1996, the Company acquired rights under a Joint Venture Agreement with the Ministry of Industry of Armenia and Armgold, S.E., the Armenian state enterprise, formed to provide capital and multistage financing of the Armenian gold industry, which rights were finalized under the Second Armenian Gold Recovery Company Joint Venture Agreement, dated as of September 30, 1997.
 
As of January 31, 1997, the Company and Global Gold Armenia Limited, the Company's then wholly-owned Cayman Islands subsidiary ("GGA Cayman"), reached an initial agreement with First Dynasty Mines, Ltd., whose name changed to Sterlite Gold Ltd.  On July 5, 2002  ("Sterlite"), a Canadian public company and whose shares were traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange with respect to the initial Armenian project. The Company, GGA Cayman and Sterlite entered into a definitive agreement, dated May 13, 1997. Under such agreement, Sterlite acquired all of the stock of GGA Cayman, subject to certain conditions, by advancing funds in stages necessary for the implementation of the tailings reprocessing project and the preparation of engineering and business plan materials for the Armenian Joint Venture and delivering  4,000,000 shares of First Dynasty (later Sterlite) Common Stock to the Company (the "FDM Agreement"). The parties thereafter amended the FDM Agreement on July 24, 1998. Pursuant to the FDM Agreement, the Company retained the right until December 31, 2009 to elect to participate at a level of up to 20% with Sterlite, or any of its affiliates or successors in interest, in any exploration project undertaken by them in Armenia. As of December 31, 2004, the Company did not own any shares of Sterlite common stock. In 2006, Vedanta Resources plc ("Vedanta") acquired control of Sterlite through Twin Star International Limited ("TSI"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Vedanta.  In September 2007, Vedanta (and Sterlite) announced that they had closed a stock sale transaction with GeoProMining Ltd., which made GeoProMining Ltd. and its affiliates the successors to the 20% obligation.

(3) ARMENIA PROPERTIES
 
The Company operates an office in Yerevan, Armenia where it manages its exploration and mining activities as well as reviews potential acquisitions. A map showing the location of the properties in Armenia (below) and other information on the properties are located on the Company's website.
 
 
Hankavan
 
Hankavan is located in central Armenia in the Kotayk province between Vanadzor and Meghradzor north of the Marmarik River.
 
GGH acquired Hankavan licenses in December of 2003 through the acquisition of the Armenian company, SHA, LLC (since renamed Global Gold Hankavan, LLC ("GGH")), and conducted a drilling program along with other exploration activities to confirm the historical feasibility work done on the copper, molybdenum and gold mineralization in the Soviet era. GGH also expanded its exploration activities to six other, smaller license areas in and around Hankavan.  In addition, GGH conducted exploration and planned to determine the feasibility of a quick start mining operation for copper oxide in this area.  These activities have not been actively pursued pending performance of a conditional, confidential settlement agreement with the Armenian Government entered as of February 25, 2008.
 
See Item 1A “Risk Factors” and Item 3 “Legal Proceedings”, below.

Marjan
 
The Marjan mining property is located in Southwestern Armenia, along the Nakichevan border in the Syunik province.  The property is accessible by car or truck through existing paved and dirt roads.  The property includes two parts; Marjan Central, where early drilling and underground exploration has been carried out and Marjan North (Mazmazak), which is situated some 1.5 km north of Marjan Central.  The whole property is roughly rectangular in shape, 3.2 km wide by 6.1 km long.  The approximate geographic coordinates of the property are, 39° 24’ 00” Latitude and 45° 51’ 00” Longitude.  Electric power is proximate to the property.  There is also a river which passes in the immediate proximity to the property.  The Company does not have any facilities or material equipment at the property.  The Company has an Armenian government approved and licensed mining plan and has done exploration work at the property but has not developed any significant surface or underground works or infrastructure with the exception of approximately 62 kilometers of roads built.  Approximately 60,000 tonnes of mineralized rock has been mined and stockpiled.  All equipment needed is brought to the site on an as needed basis from the Company’s other properties or from contractors.
 
The area of the Marjan Property is underlain by Tertiary volcanic rocks, which have been intruded by north-northwest trending dioritic dykes.  The bulk of the gold and silver mineralization is contained within polymetallic sulphide veins, which are associated with north-northwest trending hydrothermal alteration zones.  These alteration zones are readily observed on the surface as rusty to grey zones on outcrops.  Two types of gold mineralization have been observed.  These are gold mineralization associated with sulphide veins in volcanic rocks, and gold mineralization adjacent to dioritic dykes, which intrude the volcanic rocks.
 
The Company does not currently have established reserves at the Marjan Property, except as reported by the Republic of Armenia State Committee on Reserves (“GKZ”) and is focusing on exploration work based on Armenian historical GKZ records (please refer to the “Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors” on page 3 of this report).  The Company has done geological mapping, ground geophysical surveys, trenching and diamond drill testing at Marjan and continues its exploration work there based on the Armenian historical GKZ records in conjunction with the exploration work and results done so far.  Additional exploration and mining work will need to be funded with additional funds raised through joint ventures, debt, equity or a combination thereof.

The Marjan property is a lode deposit which will be mined using open pits and underground adits.  The Company has one National special mining license #HA-L-14/526 which covers surface rights for mining, exploration and related purposes for gold and non-ferrous metals (please refer to the “Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors” on page 3 of this report).  The license area is defined by the following coordinates:

X = 4366800
4.
X = 4360400
   
 
Y = 8572000
 
Y = 8575250
   
 
In 2009, GGH engaged in mapping, sampling, drill analysis and other exploration work at Marjan and expanded Marjan North area.  As of December 31, 2011, the Company has not generated any revenue from sales of any concentrate or other mineralized material at the property.  As of December 31, 2011, the Company has spent approximately $3,516,500 on mining and exploration activities at this property, excluding acquisition and capital costs.
 
This property was previously explored during the Soviet era.  SHA, LLC applied for an original license from the Armenian Government.  GGM acquired 100% of SHA, LLC, the Armenian company which held the license to the property in December 2003.  On April 28, 2008, the Company was issued a twenty-five year “special mining license” for the Marjan property effective April 22, 2008 and expiring April 22, 2033 which expands the prior license term and substantially increases the license area from approximately 1,400 acres to approximately 4,800 acres.  The Company is required to pay annual governmental fees of approximately $55,000.  The Company is also required to perform work at the property as submitted and approved in its mining plan which includes mining of 50,000 tonnes of mineralized rock annually, and to have additional reserves approved under Armenian Law in order to maintain the licenses in good standing (please refer to the “Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors” on page 3 of this report).  On March 12, 2010, GGH transferred the rights, title and interest for the Marjan property to Marjan Mining Company, a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Armenia (“Marjan RA”).  Marjan Mining Company is the licensee of the Marjan Property.

 On December 18, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Caldera outlining the terms of a joint venture on the Company’s Marjan property in Armenia (“Marjan JV”).
 
Key terms included that Caldera would, subject to terms and conditions, earn a 55% interest in the Marjan Gold-Silver-Polymetallic Project after completing a bankable feasibility study on the project or spending US$3.0M on the property.
 
As additional consideration, Caldera made a non-refundable US$50,000 deposit by December 30, 2009 and was required to issue 500,000 shares of the company on a post-consolidated basis.  Caldera would also make a payment of US$100,000 no later than March 30, 2010. A definitive agreement was to be signed as soon as possible, upon completion of due diligence review, respective board approvals and any regulatory approval that may be required.  The Company received the US$50,000 deposit on December 29, 2009.  

On March 24, 2010, the Company signed an agreement with Caldera establishing the terms for a joint venture on the Company’s Marjan property in Armenia (“Marjan JV”) which amended the December 18, 2009 agreement.
 
Key terms included that Caldera would own 55% of the shares of a newly created joint venture company, become the operator of the project, and be responsible for all expenses.  To maintain its 55% interest, Caldera would be obligated to spend up to US$ 3,000,000 on the Property, issue 500,000 shares of Caldera and make a payment of US$ 100,000 on or before March 30, 2010 to Global Gold Corporation.  The joint venture board would have two Caldera representatives and one Global Gold representative.  However, certain actions including adoption of the annual operating and capital budgets require unanimous consent.  Should Caldera not perform in accordance with the terms of the Marjan JV, then Global Gold would have 100% interest of the Marjan JV transferred back and Caldera would receive an NSR on the Marjan property equal to .5% for each tranche of US$ 1,000,000 up to a maximum NSR of 3% without any prorating.

Also under the joint venture agreement Caldera would own 100% in the Marjan Gold-Silver Project by making quarterly payments totaling US$ 2,850,000, starting September 30, 2010.  If Caldera missed one of its quarterly payments based on its failure to raise funds from capital markets, it would be entitled to an automatic 30 day extension from each quarterly payment; if Caldera defaulted on an extended payment then Caldera forfeits its shares of the Marjan JV, be relieved of its investment commitment, but still be liable for the payments to Global Gold which accrues interest at 10%, and possibly retain a royalty interest as described above.  If Caldera made its payments and completed its obligations, Global Gold would retain a 1.5% NSR on all production on the Central zone and a 2.5% NSR on all production on the Northern zone.  Caldera could prepay the payments, fulfill the investment commitment, and take 100% interest of the JV at any time.

The agreement was subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange and the Board of Directors of the respective companies.  As of April 30, 2010, Caldera paid the Company $100,000.  Caldera further informed the Company that it received TSX Venture Exchange approval on the transaction, which subsequently proved to be untrue.  On October 7, 2010, the Company terminated the Marjan JV for Caldera’s non-payment and non-performance as well as Caldera’s illegal registrations in Armenia and other actions.  In October 2010, Caldera filed for arbitration in New York City.  In September 2010, at Caldera’s invitation, the Company filed to reverse the illegal registration in Armenia.  That litigation and the New York arbitration were subsequently resolved in favor of the Company, restoring the Company’s 100% ownership of Marjan.  See Legal Matters and Subsequent Events for an update on the Marjan JV.

Toukhmanuk
 
The Toukhmanuk property is adjacent to the Hankavan property in central Armenia, between the Aragatsotn and Kotayk provinces. The property includes seven surrounding exploration sites as well as other assets.  The property is located approximately 60 km (72 km by road) north of Yerevan, close to the Town of Aparan and some 75 km (by road) from the Alaverdi copper smelter in northern Armenia.  Access to the Toukhmanuk Property is by paved road (about 57 km from Yerevan to the turn-off of the road north of Aparan and about 15 km by dirt road from Aparan to Melikkyugh, the nearby village to the site).  Local infrastructure is available at the site and at nearby towns.  Infrastructure at the site includes electrical power, cell phone network and road building equipment.  Logistical support, in terms of power, is available at the Toukhmanuk site, and at Melikkyugh, which is linked by a 10 Kv line to the Armenian Power grid.  Water is available from natural sources within the property, independent of community sources.  In addition to the central property, the acquisition included a 200,000 tonne per year capacity plant.  The Company has maintained the plant’s crushers, mills, and gravitation circuits in good condition while also adding a hydro cyclone and flotation cells, as well as building a new tailings dam.  Other major assets at the property include several bulldozers, excavators and a track trencher which are all in good condition.  The property also includes some temporary housing units, and hangers which are used to store core samples, a gold room, and a new ISO certified laboratory.

The area of the Toukhmanuk Property is underlain predominantly by Jurassic volcanic rocks and Cretaceous intrusive rocks.  The volcanic rocks comprise andesites and dacites, and the intrusive rocks are dominantly granitic with minor granitic gneiss and amphibolites.  Parts of the area are also covered by Tertiary volcanic rocks including obsidian and perlites.  Gold mineralization in the Toukhmanuk area is hosted by both volcanic and intrusive rocks.
 
On October 27, 2009, the Company issued a press release announcing the first stage of approval of reserves for its Toukhmanuk expansion. The Republic of Armenia’s State Natural Resources Agency (the "Agency") issued its certificate based on the proposal of the Agency’s State Geological Expert Commission made during its October 23, 2009 session. The total ore reserve approved was roughly 21,900,000 tonnes with an average gold grade of 1.62 grams per tonne at a cut off grade of 0.80 grams per tonne and an average silver grade of 4.88 grams per tonne.   Total approved reserves in the C1 and C2 categories are roughly 35.614 tonnes (or 1,145,000 ounces) of gold and 107 tonnes (or 3,440,000 ounces) of silver. In its approval, the Agency added that the “approved reserves entirely correspond to the requirements for Measured and Indicated reserves under International Standards."   
 
On November 18, 2009, the Company issued a press release announcing that following up on the issuance of the approving a first stage gold reserve, the Republic of Armenia’s State Natural Resources Agency (the “Agency”) has delivered its full decision with backup calculations on November 13, 2009 confirming an additional gold resource in the inferred category. The Agency issued its decision based on the proposal of the Agency’s State Geological Expert Commission made during its October 23, 2009 session. A copy of the official approval and a partial unofficial translation are available on the company’s website www.globalgoldcorp.com and attached to this Annual Report on Form 10-K as Exhibit 10.21.
 
The approved gold resource in the Inferred category is 35 tonnes (or 1,225,276 ounces), which together with the approved 1.145 million ounces of reserves marks a sharp increase from the 8.0 tonnes approved under GKZ decision N28 of January, 26, 2004. The reserve and resource estimates were concluded at a cutoff grade of 0.8 grams per tonne.
 
 
The Company has done geological mapping, ground geophysical surveys, trenching and diamond drill testing at Toukhmanuk and continues its exploration work there based on the Armenian historical GKZ records in conjunction with the exploration work and results done so far (please refer to the “Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors” on page 3 of this report).  On October 17, 2011, the Company received an updated NI-43-101 format independent technical report prepared by Behre Dolbear International Limited for the Toukhmanuk and Getik properties in Armenia and reporting on new discoveries at Toukhmanuk which is available on the Company’s website.   The Behre Dolbear analysis reported 39.23 metric tonnes at grades of 2.07 g/t gold and 14.07 g/t silver using a cut-off grad of 0.6 g/t gold in measured, indicated and inferred resource categories totaling 2,606,000 ounces of gold and 17,769,000 ounces of silver.   Additional exploration work will need to be funded with additional funds raised through joint ventures, debt, equity or a combination thereof.

Lichkvadz-Tei and Terterasar
 
Lichtvadz-Tei and Terterasar are located in the southern Armenia province of Syunik.
 
On August 15, 2005, GGM entered into a joint venture agreement with Iberian Resources Limited’s subsidiary, Caucusus Resources Ltd. (“CR”) to form the Aigedzor Mining Company, LLC ("AMC") on an 80% CR, 20% GGM basis in anticipation of jointly acquiring and developing (a) for the Lichkvadz-Tei and Terterasar mining properties as well as the associated plant and assets in southern Armenia through the Armenian limited liability company Sipan 1, LLC ("Sipan 1") which is the licensee; and (b) mineral exploration and related properties within a 20 kilometer radius of the southern Armenian town of Aigedzor.

On December 19, 2006, GGM entered a "Restructuring, Royalty, and Joint Venture Termination Agreement" with CR. The agreement restructures the parties' Aigedzor Mining Company Joint Venture to transfer GGM 's 20% interest to CR in exchange for: one million dollars; a 2.5% Net Smelter Return (“NSR”) royalty payable on all products produced from the Lichkvaz and Terterasar mines as well as from any mining properties acquired in a 20 kilometer radius of the town of Aigedzor in southern Armenia; the right to participate up to 20% in any new projects undertaken by Iberian or its affiliates in Armenia until August 15, 2015; and five million shares of Iberian's common stock, which are restricted for one year. On February 28, 2007, Iberian Resources Limited announced its merger with Tamaya Resources Limited (“Tamaya”), and Tamaya is now developing those properties.  As part of the merger, the five million shares of Iberian’s common stock were exchanged for twenty million shares of Tamaya’s common stock without any restrictions.  GGM retains the right to participate up to 20% in any new projects undertaken by Tamaya or its affiliates in Armenia until August 15, 2015 and the 2.5% Net Smelter Return royalty as described above.  During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company sold all 20,000,000 shares of the Tamaya Resources Limited Stock that it owned.  In 2008, Tamaya and Iberian Resources filed for bankruptcy in Australia.  In 2009, the bankruptcy administrators sold the shares of Sipan 1, LLC to Terranova Overseas company organized in the United Arab Emirates  which, on information and belief, includes local and foreign investors and  which also assumes the continuing obligations of Sipan 1, LLC to Global Gold. .  The Company has taken action to protect its rights.  On information and belief, the license for Lichkvadz-Tei was terminated by Armenian authorities in March 2009 and is still in litigation.

Santa Candelaria
 
Santa Candelaria is located in Comuna de Diego de Almagro, Region III of Chile.
 
The Company, on January 15, 2003, entered into an option/purchase/lease agreement with Alfredo Soto Torino and Adrian Soto Torino for the purchase of copper gold properties in Chanaral District III Chile (the Candelaria 1 to 3, the Santa Candelaria 1 to 8 and the Torino I mining claims 1 through 7 and Torino II mining claims 1 through 11) (the "Chilean Agreement"). The Company currently refers to all of the properties acquired by the Chilean Agreement as "Santa Candelaria." The Agreement was converted into a purchase agreement on February 4, 2004.

After certain exploration activities, including limited drilling in 2005, the Company determined that it should discontinue its exploration operations at Santa Candelaria, and wrote down its investment. Further, on January 13, 2006, Minera Global entered into a purchase, option, and royalty agreement with Mr. Adrian Soto Torino, a citizen of Chile ("AST") to transfer the mining concessions Candelaria 1, 2, and 3 to AST to mine the gold property and pay Minera Global a net smelter royalty of 10% until such time as Minera Global has been paid $75,000 and thereafter a net smelter royalty of 2% for the life of the mine. All liabilities and fees associated with the property are the responsibility of AST, and Minera Global retains the option to reacquire the mining concession upon 60 days notice and payment of 1,000,000 Chilean pesos (approximately $2,000 USD using exchange rates at December 31, 2009).

The Company transferred all of its rights to Santa Candalaria to Amarant as part of the transaction described above which closed on December 2, 2011.
 
See Item 1A “Risk Factors”, below.
 
(5) CANADA PROPERTIES
 
A map showing the location of the properties in Canada and other information about the properties are located on the Company's website.  The Company has phased out its Canadian properties, retaining a royalty interest in the Cochrane Pond property in Newfoundland.
 
Cochrane Pond
 
The Cochrane Pond property is located in southeastern Newfoundland, Canada.
 
On April 12, 2007, Global Gold Uranium entered an agreement to acquire an option for the Cochrane Pond license area (the "Option Agreement") with Commander Resources Ltd. ("Commander") and Bayswater Uranium Corp. ("Bayswater"). The Cochrane Pond property consists of 2,600 claims within 61,000 hectares (approximately 150,708 acres).  The Agreement is subject to the conclusion of an option agreement.  Major terms include the following: Global Gold Uranium may earn a 51% equity interest over a period of four years in Cochrane Pond Property by completing; Cash payments of US $700,000 over four year period; Share issuance of 350,000 shares of Global Gold Corporation (50 % each to Commander and Bayswater (the “CPJV”)) over a four year period; and Property expenditures over four year period of C$3.5 million as further described in exhibit 10.3 on Form 8-K filed on April 16, 2007.  As of June 30, 2007, the Company has paid $200,000 and issued 150,000 shares of the Company's common stock, 75,000 shares each to Commander and Bayswater.
 
On October 17, 2008, the parties terminated the Option Agreement, and Global Gold Uranium entered into an agreement (the “Royalty Agreement”) with Commander and Bayswater pertaining to the Cochrane Pond property.  The Royalty Agreement grants the Company a royalty in the Cochrane Pond property and terminates the Company’s existing rights and obligations associated with the Cochrane Pond property.  The key terms of the Royalty Agreement are that the CPJV shall provide a royalty to the Company for uranium produced from the Cochrane Pond property in the form of a 1% gross production royalty from the sale of uranium concentrates (yellowcake) capped at CDN $1million after which the royalty shall be reduced to a 0.5% royalty.  In consideration for the royalty, the Company shall pay $50,000 cash, $25,000 each to Bayswater and Commander within 30 days, all as further described in exhibit 10.3 of Form 8-K filed on October 22, 2008.    As of November 13, 2008, the Company has paid $25,000 each to Bayswater and Commander.

(6) ENVIRONMENT AND ETHICAL MATTERS
 
The Company's policy on environmental matters is stated in its Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (which is posted on the Company’s website), and requires compliance with all relevant laws and regulations and includes a zero tolerance policy on corruption.  The Company’s Insider Trading and Public Information Policy, Charter of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, Charter of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, and its Nominating and Governance Charter are also posted on its website and require compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.  Specifically, the Company intends to conduct its business in a manner that is compatible with the balanced environmental and economic needs of the  communities in which it operates.  In 2007, the Company instituted a whistleblower program to encourage reporting of any non compliance with such policies and procedures.  
 
The Company is committed to continuous efforts to improve environmental performance throughout its operations. Accordingly, the Company's policy is to: comply with international standards as developed by the World Bank; comply with all applicable environmental laws and regulations and apply responsible standards where laws and regulations do not exist; assess all projects which will include a review of the environmental issues associated with project development; make available these assessments to the appropriate government agencies for review and approval; encourage concern and respect for the environment; emphasize every employee's responsibility in environmental and safety performance; foster appropriate operating practices and training; manage its business with the goals of preventing incidents and controlling emissions and wastes to below harmful levels; design, operate, and maintain facilities to this end; respond quickly and effectively to incidents resulting from its operations, in cooperation with industry organizations and authorized government agencies; and undertake appropriate reviews and evaluations of its operations to measure progress and to foster compliance with these policies. The Company had budgeted approximately $34,700 for environmental compliance in 2011 of which approximately $23,000 remains unexpended as of the date of this filing.  The cost for the Company to maintain environmental compliance has had no substantial limitation or restriction upon our ability to carry out our mining operations.
 
ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS
 
You should carefully consider the following risk factors, together with all of the other information contained in this Annual Report, on Form 10-K before making an investment decision with respect to our common stock.  Any of the following risks, as well as other risks and uncertainties described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations and could adversely affect the value of our Common Stock.
 
EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY
 
The Company did not engage in the active conduct of a trade or business aside from development and exploration activities, it has not generated any revenues to date, with the exception of revenue from the transaction with Iberian Resources at the end of 2006, the sale of Chilean interests in the Amarant/Conventus transaction in 2011, and minimal sales of concentrate from Toukhmanuk.  Although the Company maintains mining licenses in Armenia and has reserves according to the laws of Armenia, the Company has not established proven and probable reserves in accordance per SEC Industry Guide 7 at any of it’s properties (please refer to the “Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors” on page 3 of this report).  The Company may encounter problems, delays, expenses and difficulties typically encountered in the development stage, many of which may be outside of the Company's control.  These problems include, but are not limited to, issues interpreting and proving historical mining data, obtaining and maintaining quality equipment, licensing difficulties, and financing problems.
 
LIQUIDITY RISK – GOING CONCERN

The Company needs additional funds in order to conduct any active mining development and production operations in the foreseeable future. Especially in light of the international financial crisis starting in 2008, there can be no assurance that any financing for acquisitions or future projects will be available for such purposes or that such financing, if available, would be on terms favorable or acceptable to the Company.   As such, our independent registered public accounting firm has concluded that additional revenue arrangements or financing is needed to enable us to fund our future operations, which raises substantial about our ability to operate as a going concern, and accordingly has included this uncertainty in their report on our December 31, 2011 consolidated financial statements.
 
 
20

 
 
COMPETITION
 
There is intense competition in the mining industry. The Company is competing with larger mining companies, many of which have substantially greater financial strengths, and capital, marketing and personnel resources than those possessed by the Company.  Although the Company competes with multi-national mining companies which have substantially greater resources and numbers of employees, the Company’s long term presence and the expertise and knowledge of its personnel in Armenia and in Chile allow it to compete with companies with greater resources.
 
NEED FOR KEY PERSONNEL
 
The Company presently has officers and operation managers intimately familiar with the operation of mining projects or the development of such projects and with experience in former Soviet countries and South America. While the Company does not believe the loss of any director or officer of the Company will materially and adversely affect its long-term business prospects, the loss of any of the Company's senior personnel might potentially adversely affect the Company until a suitable replacement could be found. The Company continues to employ independent consultants and engineers, and employs through subsidiaries personnel with mining, geology, and related backgrounds in Armenia, and in Chile.
 
MANAGEMENT SALARIES

As of December 31, 2011, the Company owes unpaid wages of approximately $518,000 to management.  The Company is accruing interest at an annual rate of 9% on the net of taxes wages owed to management.  As of December 31, 2011, the Company had accrued interest of approximately $94,000.  The Company’s failure to remain current in its salary obligations exposes the Company to the potential loss of key personnel.
 
TRADING MARKET
 
The Company's Common Stock is traded on the OTCQB exchange of the OTC Market. As a result, our stockholders may find it more difficult to buy or sell shares of our common stock than it would be if our stock were listed on a national securities exchange.
 
LACK OF INSURANCE PROTECTION
 
The Company may not be able to obtain adequate insurance protection for its foreign investments.
 
FLUCTUATION IN MINERAL PRICES
 
The prices of gold and other minerals historically fluctuate and are affected by numerous factors beyond the Company's control and no assurance can be given that any reserves proved or estimated will actually be produced.
 
MINING RISKS
 
The Company's proposed mining operations will be subject to a variety of potential engineering, seismic and other risks, some of which cannot be predicted and which may not be covered by insurance.
 
There are risks inherent in the exploration for, and development of, mineral deposits. The business of mining by its nature involves significant risks and hazards, including environmental hazards, industrial incidents, labor disputes, discharge of toxic chemicals, fire, cave ins, drought, flooding and other acts of God.
 
The occurrence of any of these can delay or interrupt exploration and production, increase exploration and production costs and result in liability to the owner or operator of the mine. The Company may become subject to liability for pollution or other hazards against which it has not insured or cannot insure, including those in respect of past mining activities for which it was not responsible.
 
 
21

 
 
MINING CONCESSIONS, PERMITS AND LICENSES
 
The Company's mining and processing activities are dependent upon the grant of appropriate licenses, concessions, leases, permits and regulatory consents which may be withdrawn or made subject to limitations. Although the Company believes that the licenses, concessions, leases, permits and consents it holds will be renewed, if required, when they expire, according to the current laws applicable in the respective countries, subject to the licensing issues disclosed below in "Foreign Risks," there can be no assurance that they will be renewed or as to the terms of any such renewal. Mineral rights within the countries in which the Company is currently operating are state-owned. Also see discussion under Foreign Risks and Item 3. “Legal Proceedings,” below.  

EXPLORATION RISKS
 
Minerals exploration is speculative in nature, involves many risks and frequently is unsuccessful. There can be no assurance that any mineralization discovered will result in an increase in the proven and probable reserves of the Company. If reserves are developed, it can take a number of years from the initial phases of drilling and identification of mineralization until production is possible, during which time the economic feasibility of production may change. Substantial expenditures are required to establish ore reserves through drilling, to determine metallurgical processes to extract metals from ore and, in the cases of new properties, to construct mining and processing facilities. As a result of these uncertainties, no assurance can be given that the exploration programs undertaken by the Company will result in any new commercial mining operations being brought into operation.
 
FOREIGN RISKS
 
The value of the Company's assets may be adversely affected by political, exchange rate, economic and other factors in Chile, Canada and Armenia. Armenia is a former Soviet country in transition, and presents concomitant risks. In particular, in the past, the Company has experienced delays in the bureaucratic process and has experienced dealings with corrupt officials at the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources in Armenia. The Company practices a zero tolerance program on corruption.
 
GGH, which was the license holder for the Hankavan and Marjan properties, was the subject of corrupt and improper demands and threats from the former Minister of the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources of Armenia, Vardan Ayvazian. The Company reported this situation to the appropriate authorities in Armenia and in the United States. Although the Minister took the position that the licenses at Hankavan and Marjan were terminated, other Armenian governmental officials assured the Company to the contrary and Armenian public records confirmed the continuing validity of the licenses. The Company received independent legal opinions that all of its licenses are valid and remain in full force and effect, continued to work at those properties, and engaged international and local counsel to pursue prosecution of the illegal and corrupt practices directed against the subsidiary, including international arbitration. On November 7, 2006, the Company initiated the thirty-day good faith negotiating period (which is a prerequisite to filing for international arbitration under the 2003 SHA, LLC Share Purchase Agreement) with the three named shareholders and one previously undisclosed principal, Mr. Ayvazian The Company filed for arbitration  under the rules under the International Chamber of Commerce, headquartered in Paris, France, ("ICC") on December 29, 2006. The forum for this arbitration is New York City, and the hearing is currently still pending.  On June 25, 2008, the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled that Mr. Ayvazian was required to appear as a respondent in the ICC arbitration.  On September 5, 2008, the ICC International Court of Arbitration ruled that Mr. Ayvazian shall be a party in accordance with the decision rendered on June 25, 2008 by the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York.  Subsequently, in December 2011 the ICC Tribunal decided to proceed only with the three named shareholders; in March 2012, GGM filed an action in Federal District Court pursuant to that court’s decisions for damages against Ayvazian and/or to conform the ICC Tribunal to the precedents.  In addition and based on the US Armenia Bilateral Investment Treaty, GGM filed a request for arbitration against the Republic of Armenia for the actions of the former Minister of Environment and Natural Resources with the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes, which is a component agency of the World Bank in Washington, D.C., ("ICSID") on January 29, 2007. On August 31, 2007, the Government of Armenia and GGM jointly issued the following statement, "{they} jointly announce that they have suspended the ICSID arbitration pending conclusion of a detailed settlement agreement. The parties have reached a confidential agreement in principle, and anticipate that the final settlement agreement will be reached within 10 days of this announcement." The Company has learned from public records that GeoProMining Ltd., through an affiliate, has become the sole shareholder of an Armenian Company, Golden Ore, LLC, which was granted an illegal and competing license for Hankavan. GeoProMining Ltd. is subject to the 20% obligations as successor to Sterlite Resources, Ltd.  As of February 25, 2008 GGM entered into a conditional, confidential settlement agreement with the Government of the Republic of Armenia to discontinue the ICSID arbitration proceedings. This agreement does not affect the pending ICC arbitration or litigation involving similar subject matter.

NO DIVIDENDS
 
The Company currently anticipates that it will retain all of its future earnings, if any, for use in its operations and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the near term future. There can be no assurance that the Company will pay cash dividends at any time, or that the failure to pay dividends for periods of time will not adversely affect the market price for the Company's Common Stock.

CONTROL OF THE COMPANY
 
Drury J. Gallagher, the Chairman Emeritus, Treasurer, Secretary, and Director, and Van Z. Krikorian, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and Director, own 3,455,786 (4.12%), and 3,925,000 (4.68%) shares, respectively, or a total of 7,380,786 (8.81%) shares, out of the 83,805,475 shares of the Company's Common Stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2011.  The two Company officers, director Nicholas J. Aynilian who owns 2,103,873 (2.51%) and NJA Investments, which is controlled by Nicholas J. Aynilian, owns 1,400,000 (1.67%) shares of Common Stock, entered into a shareholders agreement, dated January 1, 2004, that provides for each of the parties to the Agreement to vote for such individuals as directors.
 
Ian Hague, a Company director and Firebird Mangement, LLC manager, owns a total of 33,831,748 (40.37%) shares, and Firebird Management, LLC owns a total of 16,865,034 (20.12%) shares, out of the 83,805,475 shares, of the Company's Common Stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2011.
 
If these stockholders act in concert, they could control matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and could have the ability to prevent or cause a corporate transaction, even if other stockholders, oppose such action.  The concentration of voting power could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control which could cause our stock price to decline.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES
 
The Company rented office space in a commercial building at 45 East Putnam Avenue, Greenwich, CT where it signed a 5-year lease starting on March 1, 2006 at a starting annual rental cost of $44,200. On October 1, 2006, the Company expanded its office space by assuming the lease of the adjacent office space. The assumed lease had less then one year remaining, through September 30, 2008, at an annual rental cost of $19,500.  The assumed lease was extended for an additional year through September 30, 2009 at an annual rental cost of $22,860 for that period.  The assumed lease was further extended through October 15, 2009 at which point the Company vacated the additional space.  Messrs. Gallagher and Krikorian gave personal guarantees of the Company's performance for the first two years of the lease.  The lease terminated on March 31, 2011 and the Company entered a new 5-year lease starting on April 1, 2011 at a starting annual rental cost of $63,045.  The new lease is for office space in a commercial building at 555 Theodore Fremd Avenue, Rye, NY 10580.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
GGH, which was the license holder for the Hankavan and Marjan properties, was the subject of corrupt and improper demands and threats from the former Minister of the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources of Armenia, Vardan Ayvazian. The Company reported this situation to the appropriate authorities in Armenia and in the United States. Although the Minister took the position that the licenses at Hankavan and Marjan were terminated, other Armenian governmental officials assured the Company to the contrary and Armenian public records confirmed the continuing validity of the licenses. The Company received independent legal opinions that all of its licenses are valid and remain in full force and effect, continued to work at those properties, and engaged international and local counsel to pursue prosecution of the illegal and corrupt practices directed against the subsidiary, including international arbitration. On November 7, 2006, the Company initiated the thirty-day good faith negotiating period (which is a prerequisite to filing for international arbitration under the 2003 SHA, LLC Share Purchase Agreement) with the three named shareholders and one previously undisclosed principal, Mr. Ayvazian The Company filed for arbitration  under the rules under the International Chamber of Commerce, headquartered in Paris, France, ("ICC") on December 29, 2006. The forum for this arbitration is New York City, and the hearing is currently still pending.  On June 25, 2008, the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled that Mr. Ayvazian was required to appear as a respondent in the ICC arbitration.  On September 5, 2008, the ICC International Court of Arbitration ruled that Mr. Ayvazian shall be a party in accordance with the decision rendered on June 25, 2008 by the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York.  Subsequently, in December 2011 the ICC Tribunal decided to proceed only with the three named shareholders; in March 2012, GGM filed an action in Federal District Court pursuant to that court’s decisions for damages against Ayvazian and/or to conform the ICC Tribunal to the precedents.  In addition and based on the US Armenia Bilateral Investment Treaty, GGM filed a request for arbitration against the Republic of Armenia for the actions of the former Minister of Environment and Natural Resources with the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes, which is a component agency of the World Bank in Washington, D.C., ("ICSID") on January 29, 2007. On August 31, 2007, the Government of Armenia and GGM jointly issued the following statement, "{they} jointly announce that they have suspended the ICSID arbitration pending conclusion of a detailed settlement agreement. The parties have reached a confidential agreement in principle, and anticipate that the final settlement agreement will be reached within 10 days of this announcement." The Company has learned from public records that GeoProMining Ltd., through an affiliate, has become the sole shareholder of an Armenian Company, Golden Ore, LLC, which was granted an illegal and competing license for Hankavan. GeoProMining Ltd. is subject to the 20% obligations as successor to Sterlite Resources, Ltd.  As of February 25, 2008 GGM entered into a conditional, confidential settlement agreement with the Government of the Republic of Armenia to discontinue the ICSID arbitration proceedings. This agreement does not affect the pending ICC arbitration or litigation involving similar subject matter.

On June 17, 2010, Global Gold Corporation and its subsidiary GGM, LLC (collectively “Global”) and Caldera Resources, Inc (“Caldera”) announced TSX-V approval of their March 24, 2010 joint venture agreement to explore and bring the Marjan property into commercial production.  As previously reported, the property is held with a twenty-five year “special mining license,” effective April 22, 2008 and expiring April 22, 2033, which expanded the prior license term and substantially increased the license area.  The license required payments of annual governmental fees and   the performance of work at the property as submitted and approved in the mining plan which includes mining of 150,000 tonnes of mineralized rock between April 22, 2008 and April 21, 2011, as well as exploration work to have additional reserves approved under Armenian Law in order to maintain the licenses in good standing.  Caldera advised Global as well as governmental authorities that it would not be complying with the work requirements which prompted 90 day termination notices from the government and the October 7, 2010 joint venture termination notice from Global, which Global had agreed to keep the termination notice confidential until October 15, 2010.  

The joint venture agreement provided that Caldera would be solely responsible for license compliance and conducting the approved mining plan, and that “[i]n the event that Caldera does not, or is otherwise unable to, pursue this project and pay to Global Gold the amounts provided for hereunder, Caldera’s rights to the Property and the shares of Marjan-Caldera Mining LLC shall be forfeited and replaced by a Net Smelter Royalty (the “NSR”).” Caldera did not meet the threshold to earn any NSR under the agreement, and its notice of license non-compliance as well as its failure to pay resulted in an automatic termination of its rights by operation of the agreement.  The agreement provided that Caldera would deliver 500,000 of its shares to Global, “subject to final approvals of this agreement by the TSX Venture Exchange.” The TSX Venture Exchange approval was issued in June and Caldera failed to deliver the shares.  Subject to a 30 day extension if it could not raise the funds in capital markets, Caldera agreed to make a $300,000 payment to the Company on September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2010; $250,000 on March 30, 2011, June 30, 2011, September 30, 2011, December 30, 2011, March 30, 2012, June 30, 2012, and September 30, 2012; and $500,000 on December 31, 2012.  Caldera raised sufficient funds, but did not make these payments.
 
 
24

 
 
The agreement was subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange and the Board of Directors of the respective companies.  As of April 30, 2010, Caldera paid the Company $100,000.  Caldera further informed the Company that it received TSX Venture Exchange approval on the transaction, which subsequently proved to be untrue.  On October 7, 2010, the Company terminated the Marjan JV for Caldera’s non-payment and non-performance as well as Caldera’s illegal registrations in Armenia and other actions.  In October 2010, Caldera filed for arbitration in New York City.  In September 2010, at Caldera’s invitation, the Company filed to reverse the illegal registration in Armenia.  That litigation and the New York arbitration were subsequently resolved in favor of the Company, restoring the Company’s 100% ownership of Marjan.  See Subsequent Events for an update on the Marjan JV.

The Company was aware that another company was trading shares in the U.S. with the name Global Gold Corp.  The Company’s counsel sent the other company a cease and desist letter for using the similar name and requested that it change its name which it has done.
 
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not materially affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.  The Company has been brought to court by several disgruntled former employees and contractors for unpaid salaries and invoices, respectively, as well as some penalties for non payment which totals approximately $175,000.  The Company has recorded a liability for the actual unpaid amounts due to these individuals of approximately $85,000 as of December 31, 2011.  The Company is currently, and will continue to, vigorously defending its position in courts against these claims that are without merit.  The Company is also negotiating directly with these individuals outside of the courts in attempt to settle based on the amounts of the actual amounts due as recorded by the Company in exchange for prompt and full payment.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
COMPARISON OF TWELVE-MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND TWELVE-MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010
 
During the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2011, the Company's administrative and other expenses were $3,302,010 which represented an increase of $1,539,162 from $1,762,848 in the same period last year. The expense increase was primarily attributable to higher stock compensation expense of $328,092 more than the prior year’s period, compensation expense of $354,161 more than the prior year’s period, rent expense of $50,033 more than the prior year’s period, insurance expense of $23,494 more than the prior year’s period, professional fees of $121,431 higher than the prior year’s period and by legal fees of $608,416 higher than the prior year’s period.  

 During the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2011, the Company's mine exploration costs were $1,925,781 which represented an increase of $1,205,958 from $719,823 in the same period last year. The expense increase was primarily attributable to the increased mining activity at the Toukhmanuk property of $1,250,289 offset by decreased mining activity at the Chilean property of $41,439.  
During the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2011, the Company's amortization and depreciation expenses were $739,459 which represented a decrease of $296,292 from $1,035,751 in the same period last year. The expense decrease was primarily attributable to the decreased depreciation expense of $171,564 and a decreased amortization expense of $124,728.

During the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2011, the Company had interest expenses of $419,649 which represented a decrease of $243,570 from $663,219 in the same period last year.  The expense decrease was attributable to a decrease in interest expense of $350,121 on note payable to directors due to the director loans being converted to stock in October 2010 offset by an increase in interest expense on a secured line of credit in Armenia of $101,659. 

During the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2011, the Company had revenue of $81,702 which represented a decrease of $276,765 from $358,467 in the same period last year.  The decrease in revenue is attributable to a decrease in sales of gold concentrate of $276,765 from the Toukhmanuk property because of operational funding delays.  

The Company had interest income of $667 in 2011 which represented a decrease of $6,091 from $6,758 from the same period last year.   The decrease is attributable to lower average cash balances in the Armenia bank accounts.
 
Assets for sale decreased to $0 as of December 31, 2011 due to the closing of the sale, on December 2, 2011, of all assets held for sale as of December 31, 2010.  Deposits on contracts and equipment decreased by $542,048 at December 31, 2011 from $1,002,195 due to the completion of contracts and the receipt of equipment purchased.

Current liabilities increased by $4,834,926 as of December 31, 2011 as a result of the classification of a $5,000,000 amount paid in connection with the formation of a joint venture with Consolidated Resources as a current liability pending closing or termination of the agreement and an increase in secured line of credit - short term portion of $96,000, offset in part by reductions in wages payable of $282,492 and advance from customer of $81,702.  Secured line of credit – long term portion was $1,422,128 as of December 31, 2011 which decreased by $816,308 from $2,238,486 as of December 31, 2010 due to loan repayments made of $561,051, reclassification of $96,000 to short term, and currency changes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
The Company continues to experience liquidity challenges.

As of December 31, 2011, the Company's total assets were $3,721,984, of which $29,132 consisted of cash or cash equivalents.
 
The Company's expected plan of operation for the calendar year 2012 is:
 
(a) To implement the joint venture agreement with Consolidated Resources USA, LLC, to continue to operate expanded mining operations at Toukhmanuk, to generate income from offering services from the ISO certified lab operating at Toukhmanuk, and to continue to explore this property to confirm and develop historical reserve reports, to explore and develop the Getik property in Armenia and to generate cash flow and establish gold, silver and other reserves;
 
(b) To implement exploration recommendations from the October 17, 2011 Behre Dolbear technical report, as updated, related to the Toukhmanuk and Getik properties;

(c)  To mine, develop, and explore at the Marjan property in Armenia;

(d) To implement the sale agreement, as amended, with Conventus Ltd./Amarant Mining Ltd  in Chile;
 
(e) To review and acquire additional mineral bearing properties in Chile, Armenia, and other countries; and
 
(f) Pursue additional financing through private placements, debt and/or joint ventures.
 
The Company retained the right until December 31, 2009 to elect to participate at a level of up to 20% with Sterlite Gold Ltd. or any of its affiliates in any exploration project undertaken in Armenia. This agreement is governed by New York law and includes New York courts as choice of forum. On October 2, 2006, Vedanta Resources Plc announced that its tender offer to take control of Sterlite Gold Ltd. was successful which made it a successor to the twenty percent participation with Sterlite Gold Ltd. In September 2007, Vedanta (and Sterlite) announced that they had closed a stock sale transaction with GeoProMining Ltd., which made GeoProMining Ltd. and its affiliates the successors to the 20% participation right.  The Company continues to review legal options to enforce the 20% right.
 
The Company retains the right to participate up to 20% in any new projects undertaken by the Armenian company Sipan 1, LLC and successors to and affiliates of Iberian Resources Limited, which merged with Tamaya Resources Limited, in Armenia, until August 15, 2015.  In addition, the Company has a 2.5% NSR royalty on production from the Lichkvaz-Tei and Terterasar mines as well as from any mining properties in a 20 kilometer radius of the town of Aigedzor in southern Armenia.  On February 28, 2007, Iberian Resources Limited announced its merger with Tamaya Resources Limited.  However, as of December 31, 2008, Iberian Resources and Tamaya filed for bankruptcy in Australia and the Company has taken action to protect its rights.  In 2009, the bankruptcy administrators sold the shares of Sipan 1, LLC to Terranova Overseas company organized in the United Arab Emirates which, on information and belief, includes local and foreign investors and  which also assumes the continuing obligations of Sipan 1, LLC to Global Gold. 

 
28

 
 
The Company also anticipates spending additional funds in Armenia and Chile for further exploration and development of its other properties as well as acquisition of new properties.  The Company is also reviewing new technologies in exploration and processing.  The Company anticipates that it will issue additional equity or debt to finance its planned activities.  The Company anticipates that it might obtain additional financing from the remaining holders of its Warrants to purchase 1,650,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.10 per share, which will provide for an additional $165,000 but these warrants have not been exercised as of the date of this filing.

The Company may engage in research and development related to exploration and processing during 2012, and is purchasing processing plant and equipment assets to expand production.

The Company has received a going concern opinion from its independent public accounting firm.  This means that our auditors believe that there is doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we raise additional capital to pay our bills.  This is because the Company has not generated any substantial revenues.  The Company has been able to continue based upon its receipt of funds from the issuance of equity securities and by acquiring assets or paying expenses by issuing stock, debt, or sale of assets. The Company's continued existence is dependent upon its continued ability to raise funds through the issuance of securities. Management's plans in this regard are to obtain other financing until profitable operation and positive cash flow are achieved and maintained.

Besides the funding from agreements with both Amarant Mining Ltd. and Consolidated Resources USA, LLC, there are no firm commitments from third parties to provide additional financing and the Company needs additional funds in order to conduct any active mining development and production operations in the foreseeable future. Especially in light of the international financial crisis starting in 2008, there can be no assurance that any financing for acquisitions or future projects will be available for such purposes or that such financing, if available, would be on terms favorable or acceptable to the Company.
  
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Stock Based Compensation - The Company periodically issues shares of Common Stock for services rendered or for financing costs. Such shares are valued based on the market price on the transaction date.  The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs.
 
The Company accounts for the grant of stock and warrant awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”).  ASC 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of warrants and stock options and other equity based compensation.

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no restrictions and are fully transferable.  In addition, option models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility.
 
For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, net loss and loss per share include the actual deduction for stock-based compensation expense. The total stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $423,804 and $140,712, respectively. The expense for stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense item.
 
Comprehensive Income - The Company has adopted ASC Topic 220, "Comprehensive Income."  Comprehensive income is comprised of net income (loss) and all changes to stockholders' equity (deficit), except those related to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distribution to owners.

The following table summarizes the computations reconciling net loss to comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Comprehensive loss
  $ (7,066,544 )   $ (4,080,032 )
 
Acquisition, Exploration and Development Costs - Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized. Additionally, mine development costs incurred either to develop new ore deposits and constructing new facilities are capitalized until operations commence.  All such capitalized costs are amortized using a straight-line basis on a range from 1-10 years, based on the minimum original license term at acquisition, but do not exceed the useful life of the capitalized costs.  Upon commercial development of an ore body, the applicable capitalized costs would then be amortized using the units-of-production method.  Exploration costs, costs incurred to maintain current production or to maintain assets on a standby basis are charged to operations.  Costs of abandoned projects are charged to operations upon abandonment.  The Company evaluates, at least quarterly, the carrying value of capitalized mining costs and related property, plant and equipment costs, if any, to determine if these costs are in excess of their net realizable value and if a permanent impairment needs to be recorded.  The periodic evaluation of carrying value of capitalized costs and any related property, plant and equipment costs are based upon expected cash flows and/or estimated salvage value in accordance with ASC Topic 360, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - Management reviews and evaluates the net carrying value of all facilities, including idle facilities, for impairment at least annually, or upon the occurrence of other events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. We estimate the net realizable value of each property based on the estimated undiscounted future cash flows that will be generated from operations at each property, the estimated salvage value of the surface plant and equipment and the value associated with property interests. All assets at an operating segment are evaluated together for purposes of estimating future cash flows.
 
 ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
The Company does not hold any market risk sensitive instruments nor does it have any foreign currency exchange agreements.  The Company maintains an inventory of unprocessed ore and gold concentrate which are carried on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 at $560,560 and $3,994, respectively, and unprocessed ore and gold concentrate of $537,946 and $7,714, respectively, as of December 31, 2010 with our Armenian subsidiary Mego-Gold LLC.  The Company does not maintain any commodity hedges or futures arrangements with respect to this unprocessed ore.
 
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions in the United States and Armenia.  Bank deposits in the United States did not exceed federally insured limits as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.  As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had approximately $30,360 and $9,866, respectively, in Armenian bank deposits and $0 and $859, respectively, in Chilean bank deposits, which may not be insured. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through December 31, 2011 and as of the date of this filing.
 
The majority of the Company's present activities are in Armenia and Chile. As with all types of international business operations, currency fluctuations, exchange controls, restrictions on foreign investment, changes to tax regimes, political action and political instability could impair the value of the Company's investments.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Security Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information that would be required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the President and Chief Operating Officer and Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, respectively), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of December 31, 2011, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on the foregoing, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report.
 
(b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  As defined in the securities laws, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Principal Executive and Principal Financial Officers and effected by our Board of Directors, management, and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2011, based on the framework in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
 
 
31

 
 
Management, including the Principal Executive and Principal Financial Officers, based on their evaluation of the Company's internal control over financial reporting, have concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2011.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to Section 404(c) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
 
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

  REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
Global Gold Corporation and Subsidiaries (An Exploration Stage Company)
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Global Gold Corporation and Subsidiaries (An Exploration Stage Company) (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. We have also audited the amounts presented for the period January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2011 included in the statements of stockholders’ equity (deficit) and in the total amounts presented in the statements of operations and cash flows for the period January 1, 1995 (inception) to December 31, 2011.  We did not audit the financial statements for the period beginning January 1, 1995 through December 31, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the amounts presented for the period January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2011included in the statements of stockholders’ equity (deficit) and in the total amounts presented in the statements of operations and cash flows for the period from January 1,1995 (inception) to December 31, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant losses as more fully described in Note 2. These issues raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

GLOBAL GOLD CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
 (An Exploration Stage Company)
 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010
 
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Global Gold is currently in the exploration stage. It is engaged in exploration for, and development and mining of, gold, silver, and other minerals in Armenia, Canada and Chile. Until March 31, 2011, the Company's headquarters were located in Greenwich, Connecticut and as of April 1, 2011 the Company’s headquarters are in Rye, NY.  Its subsidiaries maintain offices and staff in Yerevan, Armenia, and Santiago, Chile. The Company was incorporated as Triad Energy Corporation in the State of Delaware on February 21, 1980 and, as further described below, conducted other business prior to January 1, 1995. During 1995, the Company changed its name from Triad Energy Corporation to Global Gold Corporation to pursue certain gold and copper mining rights in the former Soviet Republics of Armenia and Georgia. The Company has not established proven and probable reserves in accordance with SEC Industry Guide 7 at any of its properties.  The Company's stock is publicly traded. The Company employs approximately 100 people globally on a year round basis and an additional 200 people on a seasonal basis.   
 
In Armenia, the Company’s focus is on the exploration, development and production of gold at the Toukhmanuk property in the North Central Armenian Belt,  the exploration and development of the Marjan and an expanded Marjan North property.  In addition, the Company is exploring and developing other sites in Armenia, including the Getik property.  The Company also holds royalty and participation rights in other locations in the country through affiliates and subsidiaries.
 
In Chile, the Company is engaged in identifying gold exploration and production opportunities and has a bonus interest at Puero property.
 
In Canada, the Company has engaged in uranium exploration activities in the provinces of Newfoundland and Labrador, but has phased out this activity, retaining a royalty interest in the Cochrane Pond property in Newfoundland.
 
The Company also assesses exploration and production opportunities in other countries.
 
The subsidiaries of the Company are as follows:
 
On January 24, 2003, the Company formed Global Oro LLC and Global Plata LLC, as wholly owned subsidiaries, in the State of Delaware. These companies were formed to be equal joint owners of a Chilean limited liability company, Minera Global Chile Limitada ("Minera Global"), formed as of May 6, 2003, for the purpose of conducting operations in Chile.  On December 2, 2011, the Company sold these subsidiaries to Amarant Mining Ltd. (“Amarant”).
 
On August 18, 2003, the Company formed Global Gold Armenia LLC ("GGA"), as a wholly owned subsidiary, which in turn formed Global Gold Mining, LLC ("GGM"), as a wholly owned subsidiary, both in the State of Delaware. GGM was qualified to do business as a branch operation in Armenia and owns assets, royalty and participation interests, as well as shares of operating companies in Armenia.
 
On December 21, 2003, GGM acquired 100% of the Armenian limited liability company SHA, LLC (renamed Global Gold Hankavan, LLC ("GGH") as of July 21, 2006), which held the license to the Hankavan and Marjan properties in Armenia.  On December 18, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Caldera outlining the terms of a joint venture on the Company’s Marjan property in Armenia (“Marjan JV”).  On March 12, 2010, GGH transferred the rights, title and interest for the Marjan property to Marjan Mining Company, a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Armenia (“Marjan RA”) which is a wholly owned subsidiary of GGM.   On October 7, 2010, the Company terminated the Marjan JV.  See Legal Matters and Subsequent Events for an update on the Marjan JV.

On August 1, 2005, GGM acquired 51% of the Armenian limited liability company Mego-Gold, LLC, which is the licensee for the Toukhmanuk mining property and seven surrounding exploration sites.  On August 2, 2006, GGM acquired the remaining 49% interest of Mego-Gold, LLC, leaving GGM as the owner of 100% of Mego-Gold, LLC.  See Agreements and Subsequent Events for an update on Mego-Gold, LLC.

On January 31, 2006, GGM closed a transaction to acquire 80% of the Armenian company, Athelea Investments, CJSC (renamed "Getik Mining Company, LLC") and it’s approximately 27 square kilometer Getik gold/uranium exploration license area in the northeast Geghargunik province of Armenia.  As of May 30, 2007, GGM acquired the remaining 20% interest in Getik Mining Company, LLC, leaving GGM as the owner of 100% of Getik Mining Company, LLC.  See Agreements and Subsequent Events for an update on Getik Mining Company, LLC.
 
On January 5, 2007, the Company formed Global Gold Uranium, LLC ("Global Gold Uranium"), as a wholly owned subsidiary, in the State of Delaware, to operate the Company's uranium exploration activities in Canada.
 
On August 9, 2007 and August 19, 2007, the Company, through Minera Global, entered agreements to form a joint venture and on October 29, 2007, the Company closed its joint venture agreement with members of the Quijano family (“Quijano”) by which Minera Global assumed a 51% interest in the placer and hard rock gold Madre de Dios and Pureo properties in south central Chile, near Valdivia. The name of the joint venture company is Compania Minera Global Gold Valdivia S.C.M. (“Global Gold Valdivia” or “GGV”).  On August 14, 2009, the Company amended the above agreement whereby Global Gold Valdivia became wholly owned by the Company and retained only the Pureo Claims Block (approximately 8,200 hectares), transferring the Madre De Dios claims block to the sole ownership to members of the Quijano family.  On October 27, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with Conventus Ltd. a BVI corporation (“Conventus”) for the sale of 100% interest in GGV which was amended (with Conventus and Amarant) and was closed on December 2, 2011.  See Agreements Section and Subsequent Events for an update on GGV.
 
On September 23, 2011 “Global Gold Consolidated Resources Limited” was incorporated in Jersey as a 51% subsidiary of the Company pursuant to the April 27, 2011 Joint Venture Agreement with Consolidated Resources.  See Agreements Section for more information on Consolidated Resources agreements.

On November 8, 2011 “GGCR Mining, LLC” was formed in Delaware as a 100%, wholly owned, subsidiary of Global Gold Consolidated Resources Limited.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements present the available exploration stage activities information of the Company from January 1, 1995, the period commencing the Company's operations as Global Gold Corporation and Subsidiaries, through December 31, 2011.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a. Basis for Presentation - The consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2011 and 2010, and for the years then ended were prepared assuming that the Company would continue as a going concern. Since its inception, the Company, an exploration stage enterprise, has generated revenues of $632,854 (other than interest income, the proceeds from the sale of an interest in an Armenian mining venture with Iberian Resources Ltd., and the sale of common stock of marketable securities received as consideration, therewith) while incurring losses in excess of $44,000,000.  Management pursued additional investors and lending institutions interested in financing the Company's projects. However, there is no assurance that the Company will obtain the financing that it requires or will achieve profitable operations. The Company expected to incur additional losses for the near term until such time as it would derive substantial revenues from the Armenian mining interests acquired by it or other future projects. These matters raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplated the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The accompanying consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the years then ended did not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation.
 
b. Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

c. Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents consist of all cash balances and highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less when purchased and are carried at fair value.
 
 
F-7

 
 
d. Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company adopted FASB ASC 820-Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or operating results, but did expand certain disclosures.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:
 
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
   
Level 2:     Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
   
Level 3:     Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
 
The Company did not have any Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

The Company discloses the estimated fair values for all financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair value short-term financial instruments including cash, receivables, and accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximates book value due to their short-term duration.

Cash and cash equivalents include money market securities and commercial paper that are considered to be highly liquid and easily tradable. These securities are valued using inputs observable in active markets for identical securities and are therefore classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.
 
In addition, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” effective for January 1, 2008. This guidance expands opportunities to use fair value measurements in financial reporting and permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company did not elect the fair value option for any of its qualifying financial instruments.

e. Inventories - Inventories consists of the following at December 31, 2011 and 2010:
 
   
2011
   
2010
 
             
Ore
  $ 537,946     $ 560,560  
Concentrate
    7,714       3,994  
Materials, supplies and other
    212,775       175,542  
Total Inventories
  $ 758,435     $ 740,096  
 
Ore inventory consists of unprocessed ore at the Toukhmanuk mining site in Armenia. The concentrate and unprocessed ore are stated at the lower of cost or market.
 
f. Deposits on Contracts and Equipment - The Company made several deposits for purchases, the majority of which is for the potential acquisition of new properties, and the remainder for the purchase of mining equipment.
 
g. Tax Refunds Receivable - The Company is subject to Value Added Tax ("VAT tax") on all expenditures in Armenia at the rate of 20%. The Company is entitled to a credit against this tax towards any sales on which it collects VAT tax. The Company is carrying a tax refund receivable based on the value of its in-process inventory which it intends on selling in the next twelve months, at which time they will collect 20% VAT tax from the purchaser which the Company will be entitled to keep and apply against its credit.

 
F-8

 
 
h. Net Loss Per Share - Basic net loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding. Potential common shares includable in the computation of fully diluted per share results are not presented in the consolidated financial statements as their effect would be anti-dilutive.  The total number of warrants and options that are exercisable at December 31, 2011 and 2010 was 4,569,167 and 5,094,167, respectively.

i. Stock Based Compensation - The Company periodically issues shares of common stock for services rendered or for financing costs. Such shares are valued based on the market price on the transaction date.  The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs.

The Company accounts for the grant of stock and warrants awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (ASC 718).  ASC 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of warrants and stock options and other equity based compensation.

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility.
 
For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, net loss and loss per share include the actual deduction for stock-based compensation expense. The total stock-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $357,600 and $140,712, respectively. The expense for stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense item.
 
j. Comprehensive Income - The Company has adopted ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income.”  Comprehensive income is comprised of net income (loss) and all changes to stockholders' equity (deficit), except those related to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distribution to owners.
 
The following table summarizes the computations reconciling net loss to comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.
 
   
Year Ending December 31,
 
             
   
2011
   
2010
 
             
Net loss
  $ (6,536,765 )   $ (3,842,602 )
Unrealized gain arising  during year
  $ (529,779 )   $ (237,430 )
Comprehensive loss
  $ (7,066,544 )   $ (4,080,032 )
 
k. Income Taxes -   Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.
 
l. Acquisition, Exploration and Development Costs - Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized. Additionally, mine development costs incurred either to develop new ore deposits and constructing new facilities are capitalized until operations commence.  All such capitalized costs are amortized using a straight-line basis on a range from 1-10 years, based on the minimum original license term at acquisition, but do not exceed the useful life of the capitalized costs.  Upon commercial development of an ore body, the applicable capitalized costs would then be amortized using the units-of-production method.  Exploration costs, costs incurred to maintain current production or to maintain assets on a standby basis are charged to operations.  Costs of abandoned projects are charged to operations upon abandonment.  The Company evaluates, at least quarterly, the carrying value of capitalized mining costs and related property, plant and equipment costs, if any, to determine if these costs are in excess of their net realizable value and if a permanent impairment needs to be recorded.  The periodic evaluation of carrying value of capitalized costs and any related property, plant and equipment costs are based upon expected cash flows and/or estimated salvage value in accordance with ASC Topic 360, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."
 
 
F-9

 
 
m. Foreign Currency Translation - The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar. All transactions initiated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC Topic 830 “Foreign Currency Matters” as follows.
 
i) monetary assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date;
 
ii) non-monetary assets at historical rates; and
 
iii) revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the period.
 
Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in the statement of operations.
 
For foreign operations with the local currency as the functional currency, assets and liabilities are translated from the local currencies into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period to approximate translation at the exchange rate prevailing at the dates those elements are recognized in the financial statements. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive loss. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the exchange rate for the Armenian Dram (AMD) was $386 AMD and $363 AMD for $1.00 U.S.
 
The functional currency of the Company's Armenian subsidiaries is the local currency. The financial statements of the subsidiary are translated to U.S. dollars using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and the average rate of exchange for the period for revenues, costs, and expenses. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
 
n. Principles of Consolidation - Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and include the accounts of the Company and more-than-50%-owned subsidiaries that it controls.   Inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 o. Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization - Capitalized costs are depreciated or depleted using the straight-line method over the shorter of estimated productive lives of such facilities or the useful life of the individual assets. Productive lives range from 1 to 20 years, but do not exceed the useful life of the individual asset. Determination of expected useful lives for amortization calculations are made on a property-by-property or asset-by-asset basis at least annually.
 
p. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - Management reviews and evaluates the net carrying value of all facilities, including idle facilities, for impairment at least annually, or upon the occurrence of other events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. We estimate the net realizable value of each property based on the estimated undiscounted future cash flows that will be generated from operations at each property, the estimated salvage value of the surface plant and equipment and the value associated with property interests. All assets at an operating segment are evaluated together for purposes of estimating future cash flows.
 
q. Licenses - Licenses are capitalized at cost and are amortized on a straight-line basis on a range from 1 to 10 years, but do not exceed the useful life of the individual license.  At December 31, 2011 and 2010, amortization expense totaled $339,895 and $464,623, respectively.  Amortization expense over the next five years will be:

r. Reclamation and Remediation Costs (Asset Retirement Obligations) - Costs of future expenditures for environmental remediation are not discounted to their present value unless subject to a contractually obligated fixed payment schedule. Such costs are based on management's current estimate of amounts to be incurred when the remediation work is performed, within current laws and regulations. The Company has accrued approximately $34,700 as December 31, 2011 which it needs to pay towards it environmental costs which remain unpaid as of the date of this filing.  The Company mined approximately 21,400 tonnes in 2011 and approximately 21,000 in 2010.
 
It is possible that, due to uncertainties associated with defining the nature and extent of environmental contamination and the application of laws and regulations by regulatory authorities and changes in reclamation or remediation technology, the ultimate cost of reclamation and remediation could change in the future.
 
s. Revenue Recognition - Sales are recognized and revenues are recorded when title transfers and the rights and obligations of ownership pass to the customer. The majority of the company's metal concentrates are sold under pricing arrangements where final prices are determined by quoted market prices in a period subsequent to the date of sale. In these circumstances, revenues are recorded at the times of sale based on forward prices for the expected date of the final settlement.  In 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized $81,702 and $358,467, respectively, of sales from its Toukhmanuk property in Armenia.  The Company also possesses Net Smelter Return (“NSR”) royalty from non-affiliated companies.  As the non-affiliated companies recognize revenue, as per above, the Company is entitled to its NSR royalty percentage and royalty income is recognized and recorded.  In 2011 and 2010, the Company did not recognize any income from royalties.

t. New Accounting Standards:
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs,” (“ASU 2011-04”). This standard results in a common requirement between the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board for measuring fair value and disclosing information about fair value measurements. ASU 2011-04 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We do not expect the adoption of this accounting pronouncement to have any effect on our financial position and results of operations.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, "Comprehensive Income: Presentation of Comprehensive Income." ASU 2011-05 will require companies to present the components of net income and other comprehensive income either as one continuous statement or as two consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. ASU 2011-05 does not change the items which must be reported in other comprehensive income, how such items are measured or when they must be reclassified to net income. ASU 2011-05 will be effective for the first interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Further, in December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, "Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05." The Company believes the adoption of this guidance concerns disclosure only and will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, the Company will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to our consolidated financial statements.

10. CONCENTRATION RISK

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions in the United States and Armenia.  Bank deposits in the United States did not exceed federally insured limits as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.  As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had approximately $30,360 and $9,867, respectively, in Armenian bank deposits and $0 and $859, respectively, in Chilean bank deposits, which may not be insured. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through December 31, 2011 and as of the date of this filing.

The majority of the Company's present activities are in Armenia and Chile. As with all types of international business operations, currency fluctuations, exchange controls, restrictions on foreign investment, changes to tax regimes, political action and political instability could impair the value of the Company's investments.

Aynilian ($154,030.68), and Mr. Drury Gallagher ($106,350).  On October 19, 2010, the Company’s non-interested members of the Board of Directors approved a restructuring in aid of settlement of all this debt to extinguish and convert this outstanding debt.  Pursuant to the restructuring, the loans were cancelled and became convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.15 per share.  As of October 22, 2010, the Company had been given acceptance for the entire conversion.  The transaction benefited the Company by reducing the current debt by $5,312,642.95 and eliminating the interest from continuing to accrue on these debts.  The Company issued a total of 35,417,619 shares of the Company’s common stock which are restricted in exchange for the debt cancellation.  The conversion of debt by Mr. Hague did impact his 1.75% NSR royalty on the Pureo property in Chile and remains in force.

On December 28, 2010, the Company’s Director and Treasurer, Drury Gallagher, made an interest free loan of $23,500 which has been repaid as of December 31, 2011.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company owed Drury Gallagher, the Company’s Director and Treasurer, approximately $4,127 for expense reimbursement which bears no interest and has been repaid as of December 31, 2011.

As of December 31, 2011, the Company owes unpaid wages of approximately $518,000 to management.  The Company is accruing interest at an annual rate of 9% on the net of taxes wages owed to management.  As of December 31, 2011, the Company had accrued interest of approximately $94,000.

As of December 31, 2011, the Company had loans due to employees in Armenia of approximately $256,000.  The loans accrue interest at an annual rate of 14%.  The Company did not have any accrued interest as of December 31, 2011.
 
12. INCOME TAXES
 
Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

At December 31, 2011, the Company had net deferred tax assets of $16,528,000. The Company has provided a valuation allowance, which increased during 2011 by $2,520,000 against the full amount of its deferred tax asset, since the likelihood of realization cannot be determined .

The Company had net operating loss carry forwards for tax purposes of approximately $32,200,000 at December 31, 2011 expiring at various dates from 2015 to 2030. A significant portion of these carry forwards are subject to limitations on annual utilization due to "equity structure shifts" or "owner shifts" involving "5 percent stockholders" (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), which resulted in more than a 50 percent change in ownership.
 
13. COMMON STOCK
 
On August 1, 2005, GGM entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire the Armenian limited liability company Mego-Gold, LLC which is the licensee for the Toukhmanuk mining property and surrounding exploration sites as well as the owner of the related processing plant and other assets.  On August 2, 2006, GGM exercised its option to acquire the remaining forty-nine percent (49%) of Mego-Gold, LLC, in exchange for one million dollars ($1,000,000) and five hundred thousand (500,000) restricted shares of the Company's common stock with a contingency allowing the sellers to sell back the 500,000 shares on or before September 15, 2007 for a payment of $1 million if the Company's stock is not traded at or above two dollars and fifty cents ($2.50) at any time between July 1, 2007 and August 31, 2007. On September 12, 2006, GGM loaned two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000) to Karapet Khachatryan ("Maker"), one of the sellers of Mego-Gold LLC, a citizen of the Republic of Armenia, as evidenced by a convertible promissory note payable (“Note”) to GGM, with interest in arrears on the unpaid principal balance at an annual rate equal to ten percent (10%). At any time following September 18, 2006, the Company, at its sole option, had the right to convert all of Maker's debt from the date of the Note to the date of conversion into shares of common stock of the Company at the conversion price of $1.50 per share with all of such shares as security for all obligations. Maker pledged two hundred fifty five thousand (255,000) shares of the Company's common stock as security for his obligations thereunder. On September 16, 2007, the contingency period expired without exercise, extension or amendment. The Company has accounted for this by booking the 500,000 shares, at the fair market value of $1,000,000, into Additional Paid-In Capital.  The Company also booked the $200,000 secured loan into Note Receivable and accrued interest, from inception of Note as per the terms of the Note above, into Additional Paid-In Capital.  On February 12, 2008 the Company exercised its option and converted the Note and accrued interest into one hundred fifty two thousand seven hundred seventy eight shares (152,778), which were then cancelled.  As a result, the Company recorded bad debt expense of $151,250 for the difference in the value of the stock and the amount owed to the Company.

(“Global Gold Valdivia” or “GGV”). 
 
Key agreement terms for the Madre De Dios joint venture agreement include a 1,000,000 euro payment from Global Gold (paid as of October 30, 2007), and the following joint venture terms equity interests set at 51%-49% in favor of Global Gold; of the 3 directors, two (Mr. Krikorian and Dr. Ted Urquhart, Global's Vice President in Santiago) are appointed by Global Gold; Global Gold commits to finance at least one plant and mining operation within 6 months as well as a mutually agreed exploration program to establish proven reserves, if that is successful, two additional plants/operations will be financed; from the profits of the joint venture, Global Gold will pay its partner an extra share based on the following scale of 28 million euros for (a) 5 million ounces of gold produced in 5 years or (b) 5 million ounces of gold proven as reserves according to Canadian National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) standards in 5 years.  The 6 month obligation was amended and extended by the October 27, 2007 Pact to a period of 3 years.  The definitions of proven and probable reserves in NI 43-101 reports differ from the definitions in SEC Industry Guide 7.  Also, the SEC does not recognize the terms “measured resources and indicated resources” or “inferred resources” which are used in NI 43-101 reports.  The Company has not financed any plants as of December 31, 2009.

On July 24, 2009, Global Gold entered into an amendment with members of the Quijano family (“Quijano”) to the October 29, 2007 Global Gold Valdivia joint venture subject to final board approval on or before July 31, 2009 whereby GGV will become wholly owned by Global Gold and retain only the Pureo Claims Block (approximately 8,200 hectares), transferring the Madre De Dios claims block to the sole ownership to members of the Quijano family.  On July 28, 2009, the amendment was approved by the Company’s board of directors.

Quijano shall be entitled a 3% NSR royalty interest in all metals produced from the properties retained in GGV up to a maximum of 27 million Euros, subject to Quijano’s initial repayment of $200,000 to Global Gold. For three years,  GGV or its designee shall have a right of first refusal on any bona fide offers for all or any part of the properties transferred to Quijano (to be exercised within five (5) days).  For three years, Quijano shall also have a right of first refusal on any bona fide offers for all or any part of the properties retained by GGV or its designee (to be exercised within twenty (20) days).

Key terms include that Caldera shall own 55% of the shares of a newly created joint venture company, become the operator of the project, and be responsible for all expenses.  To maintain its 55% interest, Caldera is obligated to spend up to US$ 3,000,000 on the Property, issue 500,000 shares of Caldera and make a payment of US$ 100,000 on or before March 30, 2010 to Global Gold Corporation.  The joint venture board shall have two Caldera representatives and one Global Gold representative.  However, certain actions including adoption of the annual operating and capital budgets require unanimous consent.  Should Caldera not perform in accordance with the terms of the Marjan JV, then Global Gold will have 100% interest of the Marjan JV transferred back and Caldera will receive an NSR on the Marjan property equal to .5% for each tranche of US$ 1,000,000 up to a maximum NSR of 3% without any prorating.

Also under the joint venture agreement Caldera will own 100% in the Marjan Gold-Silver Project by making quarterly payments totaling US$ 2,850,000, starting September 30, 2010.  If Caldera misses one of its quarterly payments based on its failure to raise funds from capital markets, it is entitled to an automatic 30 day extension from each quarterly payment; if Caldera defaults on an extended payment then Caldera shall forfeit its shares of the Marjan JV, be relieved of its investment commitment, but still be liable for the payments to Global Gold which shall accrue interest at 10%, and possibly retain a royalty interest as described above.  If Caldera makes its payments and completes its obligations, Global Gold will retain a 1.5% NSR on all production on the Central zone and a 2.5% NSR on all production on the Northern zone.  Caldera can prepay the payments, fulfill the investment commitment, and take 100% interest of the JV at any time.
 
The agreement was subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange and the Board of Directors of the respective companies.  As of April 30, 2010, Caldera paid the Company $100,000.  Caldera further informed the Company that it received TSX Venture Exchange approval on the transaction, which subsequently proved to be untrue.  On October 7, 2010, the Company terminated the Marjan JV for Caldera’s non-payment and non-performance as well as Caldera’s illegal registrations in Armenia and other actions.  In October 2010, Caldera filed for arbitration in New York City.  In September 2010, at Caldera’s invitation, the Company filed to reverse the illegal registration in Armenia.  That litigation and the New York arbitration were subsequently resolved in favor of the Company, restoring the Company’s 100% ownership of Marjan.  See Legal Matters and Subsequent Events for an update on the Marjan JV.

16. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
GGH, which was the license holder for the Hankavan and Marjan properties, was the subject of corrupt and improper demands and threats from the former Minister of the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources of Armenia, Vardan Ayvazian. The Company reported this situation to the appropriate authorities in Armenia and in the United States. Although the Minister took the position that the licenses at Hankavan and Marjan were terminated, other Armenian governmental officials assured the Company to the contrary and Armenian public records confirmed the continuing validity of the licenses. The Company received independent legal opinions that all of its licenses are valid and remain in full force and effect, continued to work at those properties, and engaged international and local counsel to pursue prosecution of the illegal and corrupt practices directed against the subsidiary, including international arbitration. On November 7, 2006, the Company initiated the thirty-day good faith negotiating period (which is a prerequisite to filing for international arbitration under the 2003 SHA, LLC Share Purchase Agreement) with the three named shareholders and one previously undisclosed principal, Mr. Ayvazian The Company filed for arbitration  under the rules under the International Chamber of Commerce, headquartered in Paris, France, ("ICC") on December 29, 2006. The forum for this arbitration is New York City, and the hearing is currently still pending.  On June 25, 2008, the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled that Mr. Ayvazian was required to appear as a respondent in the ICC arbitration.  On September 5, 2008, the ICC International Court of Arbitration ruled that Mr. Ayvazian shall be a party in accordance with the decision rendered on June 25, 2008 by the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York.  Subsequently, in December 2011 the ICC Tribunal decided to proceed only with the three named shareholders; in March 2012, GGM filed an action in Federal District Court pursuant to that court’s decisions for damages against Ayvazian and/or to conform the ICC Tribunal to the precedents.  In addition and based on the US Armenia Bilateral Investment Treaty, GGM filed a request for arbitration against the Republic of Armenia for the actions of the former Minister of Environment and Natural Resources with the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes, which is a component agency of the World Bank in Washington, D.C., ("ICSID") on January 29, 2007. On August 31, 2007, the Government of Armenia and GGM jointly issued the following statement, "{they} jointly announce that they have suspended the ICSID arbitration pending conclusion of a detailed settlement agreement. The parties have reached a confidential agreement in principle, and anticipate that the final settlement agreement will be reached within 10 days of this announcement." The Company has learned from public records that GeoProMining Ltd., through an affiliate, has become the sole shareholder of an Armenian Company, Golden Ore, LLC, which was granted an illegal and competing license for Hankavan. GeoProMining Ltd. is subject to the 20% obligations as successor to Sterlite Resources, Ltd.  As of February 25, 2008 GGM entered into a conditional, confidential settlement agreement with the Government of the Republic of Armenia to discontinue the ICSID arbitration proceedings. This agreement does not affect the pending ICC arbitration or litigation involving similar subject matter.

On June 17, 2010, Global Gold Corporation and its subsidiary GGM, LLC (collectively “Global”) and Caldera Resources, Inc (“Caldera”) announced TSX-V approval of their March 24, 2010 joint venture agreement to explore and bring the Marjan property into commercial production.  As previously reported, the property is held with a twenty-five year “special mining license,” effective April 22, 2008 and expiring April 22, 2033, which expanded the prior license term and substantially increased the license area.  The license required payments of annual governmental fees and   the performance of work at the property as submitted and approved in the mining plan which includes mining of 150,000 tonnes of mineralized rock between April 22, 2008 and April 21, 2011, as well as exploration work to have additional reserves approved under Armenian Law in order to maintain the licenses in good standing.  Caldera advised Global as well as governmental authorities that it would not be complying with the work requirements which prompted 90 day termination notices from the government and the October 7, 2010 joint venture termination notice from Global, which Global had agreed to keep the termination notice confidential until October 15, 2010.  

The joint venture agreement provided that Caldera would be solely responsible for license compliance and conducting the approved mining plan, and that “[i]n the event that Caldera does not, or is otherwise unable to, pursue this project and pay to Global Gold the amounts provided for hereunder, Caldera’s rights to the Property and the shares of Marjan-Caldera Mining LLC shall be forfeited and replaced by a Net Smelter Royalty (the “NSR”).” Caldera did not meet the threshold to earn any NSR under the agreement, and its notice of license non-compliance as well as its failure to pay resulted in an automatic termination of its rights by operation of the agreement.  The agreement provided that Caldera would deliver 500,000 of its shares to Global, “subject to final approvals of this agreement by the TSX Venture Exchange.” The TSX Venture Exchange approval was issued in June and Caldera failed to deliver the shares.  Subject to a 30 day extension if it could not raise the funds in capital markets, Caldera agreed to make a $300,000 payment to the Company on September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2010; $250,000 on March 30, 2011, June 30, 2011, September 30, 2011, December 30, 2011, March 30, 2012, June 30, 2012, and September 30, 2012; and $500,000 on December 31, 2012.  Caldera raised sufficient funds, but did not make these payments.
 
The agreement was subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange and the Board of Directors of the respective companies.  As of April 30, 2010, Caldera paid the Company $100,000.  Caldera further informed the Company that it received TSX Venture Exchange approval on the transaction, which subsequently proved to be untrue.  On October 7, 2010, the Company terminated the Marjan JV for Caldera’s non-payment and non-performance as well as Caldera’s illegal registrations in Armenia and other actions.  In October 2010, Caldera filed for arbitration in New York City.  In September 2010, at Caldera’s invitation, the Company filed to reverse the illegal registration in Armenia.  That litigation and the New York arbitration were subsequently resolved in favor of the Company, restoring the Company’s 100% ownership of Marjan.  See Legal Matters and Subsequent Events for an update on the Marjan JV.

The Company was aware that another company was trading shares in the U.S. with the name Global Gold Corp.  The Company’s counsel sent the other company a cease and desist letter for using the similar name and requested that it change its name which it has done.
 
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not materially affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.  The Company has been brought to court by several disgruntled former employees and contractors for unpaid salaries and invoices, respectively, as well as some penalties for non payment which totals approximately $175,000 and $350,000 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The Company has recorded a liability for the actual unpaid amounts due to these individuals of approximately $85,000 and $130,000 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The Company is currently, and will continue to, vigorously defending its position in courts against these claims that are without merit.  The Company is also negotiating directly with these individuals outside of the courts in attempt to settle based on the amounts of the actual amounts due as recorded by the Company in exchange for prompt and full payment.
 
17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In accordance with ASC 855, “Subsequent Events” the Company evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date of December 31, 2011 through the date of this filing.

On February 6, 2012, the Company received consent from shareholders representing a majority over 65% of its outstanding Common Stock to transfer the 100% interest in Mego-Gold, LLC and Getik Mining Company, LLC into GGCR Mining, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, owned by a joint venture company, Global Gold Consolidated Resources Limited, a Jersey Island private limited company (“GGCR”), per the terms of the April 27, 2011 Joint Venture Agreement with Consolidated Resources Armenia, an exempt non-resident Cayman Islands company (“CRA“). The JVC will issue new shares to the Company such that following any reverse merger or initial public offering of JVC's shares ("IPO"), Global Gold shall directly or indirectly hold the greater of (a) 51% of the equity of JVC, or (b) $40.0 million in newly issued stock of JVC, calculated based on the volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of such shares over the first 30 (thirty) days of trading following the IPO, assuming issuance of all shares issuable in the IPO, and assuming issuance of all shares issuable as management shares and conversion of the Notes issued under the Instrument (as defined) and all other convertible securities and exercise of any warrants or other securities issued in connection with the IPO, such that if following any reverse merger or IPO, the value of $40.0 million in newly issued shares based on VWAP of JVC shares is greater than the Global Gold's 51% equity ownership in JVC valued as above, new shares in JVC will be issued to the Global Gold such that the aggregate value of Global Gold's ownership in JVC is shares having a value of $40.0 million based on VWAP, and the Company shall remain in control of the JVC following the public listing, all as further described in exhibit 10.34 below.  The Board of Directors of Global Gold Corporation previously approved the same transaction, discussed above, on January 5, 2012.
 
Based on the approval of the Board of Directors of Global Gold Corporation (“GGC” and “the Company”) received on January 5, 2012 and on receiving consent from its shareholders representing over a 65% majority of its outstanding Common Stock on February 6, 2012, as the Company reported on Form 8-K dated February 9, 2012, to transfer the 100% interest in Mego-Gold, LLC (“Mego” and “MG”) and Getik Mining Company, LLC (“Getik”) into GGCR Mining, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GGCR Mining”), owned by a joint venture company, Global Gold Consolidated Resources Limited, a Jersey Island private limited company (“GGCR”), per the terms of the April 27, 2011 Joint Venture Agreement with Consolidated Resources Armenia, an exempt non-resident Cayman Islands company (“CRA”).  The Company entered into the following agreements on or about February 19, 2012 updating previous agreements, all as further described in the exhibits attached, on the following dates:

In a final, non-appealable decision issued and effective February 8, 2012, the Armenian Court of Cassation affirmed the July 29, 2011 Armenian trial court and December 12, 2012 Court of Appeals decisions which ruled that Caldera Resources, Inc.'s ("Caldera") registration and assumption of control through unilateral charter changes of the Marjan Mine and Marjan Mining Company, LLC were illegal and that ownership rests fully with Global Gold Mining, LLC (a wholly owned subsidiary of Global Gold Corporation).  The official versions of the Armenian Court decisions are available through http://www.datalex.am/ .
 
 
F-26

 
 
Based on Caldera's report of TSX-V approval, on June 17, 2010, Global Gold and Caldera announced they were proceeding with their March 24, 2010 joint venture agreement to explore and bring the Marjan property into commercial production. In late August 2010, Global learned that Caldera had circumvented the agreement by unilaterally and illegally registering changes to the Armenian project company's charter to Global's detriment. Such changes could only have been properly made with the signature of one of three authorized Global officers. However, Caldera was somehow able to register changes without Global's consent or knowledge. Without even advising Global that it had made those changes to take control, Caldera tried to have Global sign a resolution that would have authorized Caldera's illegal acts. Global refused. In addition, Caldera advised that it would not be performing the mining license requirements, failed to perform, and materially breached the agreements in other ways.
 
After a detailed notice sent on September 2, 2010 and attempts to work out a solution failed, Global filed an action in the appropriate Armenian court to rescind the illegal registration on September 22, 2010, and terminated the joint venture with Caldera on October 7, 2010. Global had agreed to keep the termination notice confidential until October 15, 2010, all as previously reported in Global's SEC filings.

On October 10, 2010 Caldera wrote to Global that "any claims of illegal registrations and request for changes must be addressed to Administrative Court in Armenia." Later, Caldera intervened in the Armenian case as a third party. After trial, court examination, and a 22 page opinion, the July 29 verdict reinstated Global as the sole shareholder of Marjan Mining Company. The lower court specifically identified both Caldera's President Vasilios (Bill) Mavridis and its country representative Azat Vartanian as responsible for Caldera's actions in this case.

Caldera appealed the Armenian Administrative Court decision.  In a December 12, 2011 decision, the 54 page opinion concluded that the "Court of Appeals found that all material evidence necessary for the resolution of this case have already been duly examined and evaluated by the Administrative Court." Further, the "Court of Appeals found that the conclusion made by the Administrative Court that the application by Marjan Caldera Mining, LLC to make changes of the ownership of shares of Marjan Mining Company, LLC was made by the person not having such authorities is valid," and that the appeal filed by Caldera Resources, Inc aimed at revoking the Administrative Court's decision "is not substantiated and shall be rejected."

Caldera appealed again to the highest court with jurisdiction in Armenia, and the February 8, 2012  Court of Cassation decision recited its standards for accepting appeals-- when the case is important to uniform application of law in Armenia or is one that involves a material violation of substantive or procedural rights. Caldera had actually filed three separate appeals in the names of Caldera Resources, Inc., Marjan Caldera Mining, LLC and the Marjan Mining Company, LLC. None of the Caldera arguments were meritorious, and the Court of Cassation decision concluded that "the decision becomes effective as of the moment of its passing [February 8, 2012], and is not subject to being appealed."

On March 2, 2012, in accordance with the time limit imposed by Armenian law, the State Registry of the Republic of Armenia issued a new certificate reinstating Global Gold Mining, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Global Gold Corporation, as the 100% owner of the Marjan Mining Company and Mr. Ashot Boghossian as the General Director of Marjan Mining. The online summaries of the Registry's corrected records are available at www.e-register.am/en/companies/73713 .

On March 29, 2012, in the independent New York City arbitration case Global Gold received a favorable ruling in its arbitration proceeding in New York with Caldera, see Exhibit 10.48. The arbitrator issued a Partial Final Award which orders the Marjan Property in Armenia to revert to Global Gold Mining based on the two failures to meet conditions precedent to the March 24, 2010 agreement.  First, Caldera failed and refused to deliver the 500,000 shares to Global. Second, Caldera did not submit the final joint venture agreement to the TSX-V for approval until the middle of the arbitration proceedings, instead relying on superseded versions in its regulatory submissions and submitting “Form 5Cs” to the TSX-V which were false representations of Caldera’s obligations to Global.    The Partial Award states “By misrepresenting its payment obligations to the TSX-V, Caldera painted a false financial picture to the TSX-V and the investing public.”  In addition, the arbitrator found that had he not come to the conclusions above, “Caldera and its officers effectively breached the JV Agreement and the terms of the Limited Liability Agreement” in multiple ways, including Caldera’s failure to make quarterly payments to Global.  The award orders reversion of the Marjan property to Global, return of amounts paid to Global by Caldera returned as the JV Agreement did not go into effect, an Net Smelter Royalty to Caldera of 0.5% for each tranche of $1 million actually spent on the property, and further proceedings on Global’s claims for damages with a preliminary hearing set for April 25, 2011.  As previously reported, Global’s records establish that Caldera did not spend $1 million on the Marjan property.  The parties' arbitration agreement further provides that the award “shall be final and non-appealable” and for the award of attorney fees, arbitrator’s fees, and other costs.

As of the filing date of this report, Global has reestablished control of Marjan Mining Company and the Marjan property, is proceeding with plans to mine in compliance with the mining license, and is implementing additional exploration.  
   
On February 24, 2012, Jeffrey Marvin resigned as a Director from the Global Gold Corporation for personal reasons.  Mr. Marvin did not hold any positions on any committee of the board of directors for Global Gold Corporation.
 
On April 13, 2012, the Company entered into an "Amended Joint Membership Interest Purchase Agreement" with Amarant Mining Ltd. ("Amarant") to amend the parties' December 2, 2011 "Joint Membership Interest Purchase Agreement" as follows: the 1 million dollar payment from Amarant due the Company on December 15, 2011 shall be paid by April 20, 2012; the three "Additional Payments" of 1 million dollars due on each of December 15, 2012, December 15, 2013, and December 15, 2014 shall all be paid in a lump sum of three million dollars prior to May 31, 2012, as further described in Exhibit 10.49.

On April 13, 2012, the Company also received a guaranty from Contender Kapital of Stockholm Sweden that if Amarant fails to make the 1 million dollar payment to the Company on or before Friday April 20, 2012, Contender Kapital will satisfy the 1 million dollar payment, as further described in Exhibit 10.50.
