Happy birthday, John Embry, and thanks for everything

1:10a ET Saturday, March 4, 2006

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Friday night's party in Toronto for Sprott Asset Management's
chief investment strategist, John Embry, was supposed to
honor him upon his 65th birthday for his long career in the
investment business. But he used it to salute the Gold
Anti-Trust Action Committee and those of its principals who
were on hand and to remark that his work with GATA has
been some of the most important work of his life.

Perhaps no one has done more than Embry in forcing the
financial industry to confront GATA's findings. Indeed,
because of Embry's stunning endorsement of GATA's findings
while he was managing the precious metals fund of Royal Bank
of Canada, it became terribly difficult for people in mining
and mine finance to dismiss arbitrarily the gold price
suppression scheme as mere paranoia. And when Embry moved to
Sprott Asset Management and wrote with GATA consultant Andrew
Hepburn the Sprott report, quot;Not Free, Not Fair -- the Long-Term
Manipulation of the Gold Price,quot; disparagement of GATA
suffered a huge blow and gold price suppression simply
became undiscussable in establishment company because it no
longer could be rebutted, much less even disputed.

Of course Embry was a featured speaker at GATA's Gold
Rush 21 conference in Dawson City, Yukon Territory, Canada,
last August. His address received a standing ovation and
prompted more questions from the audience than any other
address at the conference. (You can see Embry's
presentation and all the presentations at Gold Rush 21 by
purchasing the conference DVD over the Internet at
www.GoldRush21.com.)

Many members of Canada's financial establishment were
among the hundreds in the audience Friday night as Embry
once again made people confront the gold price suppression
scheme, just as he had done on ROB-TV in Canada on
Wednesday's quot;Market Callquot; program with host Jim O'Connell
-- who attended Friday's party and whose own courage in
allowing the issue to be raised with national and
international audiences must be acknowledged.

So GATA offers Embry its fondest appreciation and
deepest admiration as we strive together to establish free
markets in gold and silver as matters of basic human right.

CHRIS POWELL, Secretary/Treasurer
