I had sent the IR an email asking about those stock divy's we never received. Here is the reply I received. If anyone can translate this into something I can understand then TIA.

Dear Sir

FORTRESS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. (formerly GREAT WEST GOLD, INC.)

have been asked to respond to stockholder queries (for a limited time) by both the Company’s President, Peter J Bezzano and by its CEO, Mr Alan Santini; until such time as the Company has appointed an Investor Relations firm.

Please be advised that the Company started trading yesterday, Monday October 8, 2007 under its new Trading Symbol “FFGO” and its new CUSIP Number : 34958T107. The Company has filed a Form 8-K to this effect, with the SEC.

The Company has a professional IR company preparing its new Corporate web site and I am not sure as to when it will be completed. Stockholders will be notified accordingly.

I can confirm that the Company did effect 5 (five) separate distributions (spin offs) to its stockholders, as follows br]

1) Ambassador Gold Holdings Plc – For Stockholders of Record as at January 2, 2006.

2) Bouse Mining Holdings Plc - For Stockholders of Record as at November 7, 2006.


3) Copperstone Mining Holdings Plc - For Stockholders of Record as at December 2, 2005.


4) Golden Eagle Mining Holdings Plc - For Stockholders of Record as at January 4, 2006.


5) Sentinel Resource Holdings Plc - For Stockholders of Record as at November 14, 2005.

We are in possession of the stockholder registers for each of those companies. We are maintaining these stockholder registers “in house” at this time, to reduce costs.

Should you require to know the exact stockholding that you have in each of those five companies (if eligible on the "Record Dates"), kindly advise me as to the stockholder name and address and we will be in a position to scrutinise the stockholder registers and advise you accordingly.

All shares in these companies are being held “on book” for on behalf of the shareholders. The Company is expecting to effect deals on each of these five mining holdings, fairly shortly and stockholders will be advised accordingly. Please note that whilst Great West Gold, Inc. is now primarily focussed on credit/debit card and payment solutions, it still holds the same Gold Mining Exploration assets, these stockholdings are completely unaffected.

The Company did effect certain stock splits and its Transfer Agent (Computershare) does hold a large number of shares “on book” for stockholders, in respect of these “Dividend Shares”. These are unrelated to the above-mentioned five distributions. We are in possession of that schedule and we are in a position to advise you if shares of the Company’s Common Stock are being held by that Transfer Agent. We will require the stockholder name and address.

Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require any additional information.

Kind Regards

Stephen Lumb
