Re: Goldspring,

Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule
14A 2008
Filed February 25, 2010
File No. 000-32429
Dear Ms.
Parker:
Pursuant to your request, find below
our response to the SEC Comment Letter dated March 12, 2010. Once again, we
thank you for your assistance in review of our filings. Your input is
invaluable to us in our efforts to fully comply with SEC regulations and also to
improve the quality of our disclosure documents.
Preliminary Proxy Statement
Filed February 25, 2010
1.
We
note that you have included a “Written Consent” and a “Consent Card” at
the beginning of the filing, before the Notice. Both the
“Written Consent” and the “Consent Card” are followed by blanks to be
filled in by shareholders. This method of presenting both may
cause confusion to the shareholders as to what needs to be completed by
them and returned, and may result in their filling out duplicative
information. Please revise to remove the “Written Consent” and
the “Consent Card” from the beginning of the document and provide one
consent card at the end.
To
eliminate any potential confusion and to ensure shareholders do not fill out
duplicative information, we have removed the “Written Consent” and “Consent
Card” from the beginning of the document and instead replaced with one Consent
Card at the end of the filing.
2.
We
note the first sentence of the “Written Consent of the Shareholders of
GoldSpring, Inc. in Lieu of a Special Meeting of
Shareholders.” Please ensure that you are not requesting the
shareholders to represent that they are “holding a majority of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock,” since the minority shareholders
should not be required to make this
representation.

The
Written Consent is being deleted per paragraph 1 above so this change is not
applicable.
3.
We
note that you have captioned your filing as a “Notice of Shareholder
Action to be Taken by Written Consent in March 2010 or Thereafter” and
“Proxy Statement for Written Consent in Lieu of Special Meeting of
Shareholders.” The “notice” caption makes it seem that the action will be
taken without the need for any further action by the
shareholders. The “proxy statement” caption suggests that you
are simultaneously proxies and consents. Please revise for
clarity. For example, you may wish to describe this document as
a “Consent Solicitation Statement.”
To
improve the clarity of our proxy statement, we have amended our notice caption
to state “Consent Solicitation Statement.”
In
connection with our response to the Commission’s Comment Letter, the Company
makes the following acknowledgements and representations:
·
the
company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in
the filing;
·
staff
comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments do not
foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the
filing; and
·
the
company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceedings
initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities
laws of the United States.
Again, thank you very much for your
time and assistance during this process. Please feel free to contact
either me or our counsel, Jolie Kahn (at joliekahnlaw@sbcglobal.net
or (212) 422-4910) with any further comments regarding the foregoing or if we
can be of any further assistance.
Very
truly yours,
