On

Gold Corp. issued a press release furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On
April, 30, 2008, Vista Gold Corp. (Vista or the Company) announced that it
had received correspondence from the local La Paz office of the Mexican
Environmental and Natural Resource Service (SEMARNAT) which indicates that
staff in that office are of the opinion that the Change of Land Use Permit
approved by SEMARNAT in 1997 in relation to Vistas Paredones Amarillos Project
is no longer valid. This permit is
necessary for the development of the Paredones Amarillos Project to proceed.
Vista has been advised by its advisors that the permit remains valid and is
investigating the basis for the staffs position, and intends to take immediate
steps to confirm the validity of the permit and if necessary, to address any
issues identified by SEMARNAT. Vistas management believes that any related
issues will be resolved without any significant delay to the expected timing
for completion of the definitive (bankable) feasibility study or the proposed
timetable for development of the Paredones Amarillos Project but will provide
further information as soon as it is in a position to do so.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and
Exhibits.
(d) Exhibits.
Exhibit 99.1
Press Release of Vista Gold
Corp. dated April 30, 2008
This filing contains
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act of
1933 and U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and forward-looking information
within the meaning of Canadian securities laws.
All statements, other than statements of
historical facts, included in this filing that address activities, events or
developments that Vista expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future,
including such things as contemplated development scenarios for the Paredones
Amarillos Project; progress, scheduling and the performance and results of
feasibility studies including the ongoing bankable feasibility study for the
Paredones Amarillos Project; status of permits for the Paredones Amarillos Project
and anticipated timing of commencement of construction and commencement of
production at the Paredones Amarillos Project; Vistas future business strategy,
competitive strengths, goals, operations, plans, potential project development,
future share price and valuation, future gold prices, Vistas potential status
as a producer, and other such matters are forward-looking statements. When used in this press release, the words estimate,
plan, anticipate, expect, intend, believe and similar expressions are
intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results,
performance or achievements of Vista to be materially different from any future
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Such factors
include, among others, risks relating to delays and incurrence of additional
costs in connection with the feasibility study underway at our Paredones
Amarillos Project including uncertainty relating to timing and receipt for
required governmental permits; uncertainty of feasibility study results and
preliminary assessments and of estimates on which such results are based; risks
relating to delays in commencement and completion of construction at the
Paredones Amarillos Project; risks of significant cost increases; risks of
shortages of equipment or supplies; risks that Vistas acquisition, exploration
and property advancement efforts will not be successful; risks relating to
fluctuations in the price of gold; the inherently hazardous nature of
mining-related activities; uncertainties concerning reserve and resource
estimates; potential effects on Vistas operations of environmental regulations
in the countries in which it operates; risks due to legal proceedings; risks
relating to political and economic instability in certain countries in which it
operates; uncertainty of being able to raise capital on favorable terms or at
all; and external risks relating to the economy and credit markets in general;
as well as those factors discussed in Vistas latest Annual Report on Form 10-K
and other documents filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and
Canadian securities commissions.
Although Vista has attempted to identify important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those described in
forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results not
to be as anticipated, estimated or intended.
There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate
as actual results and future events could differ materially from those
anticipated in such statements. Except
as required by law, Vista assumes no obligation to publicly update any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
events or otherwise.
