LEXINGTON, Ky., Sept. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- VHGI Holdings (OTC Bulletin Board: VHGI) VHGI Gold LLC, its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, wishes to update their investors and stockholders on the progress of the due diligence process on the Gold Creek Placer Mining Prospect in Montana.

This process, announced July 15, 2010, has proven these leases simply fall outside of the proposed business plan being brought forward by Eric Leonetti, VP / COO of VHGI Gold. "We have decided after a lengthy due diligence period concerning this placer mining prospect that we are not going to move forward on this project at this time," stated Mr. Leonetti, adding, "we remain confident that these Montana leases are worthy of being mined just not by us, at this time, based on the cost structure of the project. We wish the current lease holders well as we suspended this relationship on good terms and may keep in touch with them as they progress on the project without us."
