AMENDMENT OF CHARTER, BYLAWS, OR OTHER DOCUMENTS

This Information Statement is being mailed to the shareholders of record on November 8, 2007 of International Gold Resources, Inc. ("IGR" or the "Company"), commencing on or about December 21, 2007, in connection with the prior approval by written consent, on November 8, 2007, by the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company, of the corporate action referred to below and its subsequent adoption, also on November 8, 2007, by the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock as permitted pursuant to Section 242 of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL").  A copy of the foregoing written consent is attached as Appendix A to this Information Statement.

Accordingly, all necessary corporate approvals in connection with the matters discussed herein have been obtained, and this Information Statement is furnished solely for the purpose of informing the Company’s shareholders pursuant to Section 228(e) of the DGCL and including information under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), of the matters discussed herein.  For this reason, IGR is not calling a special meeting of the shareholders in respect of the corporate action referred to below and is not asking shareholders for a proxy or consent.

The total amount of Common Stock outstanding on November 8, 2007 was 118,668,232 shares, with 120,000,000 shares authorized (par value of $.00002 per share), and the total amount of Preferred Stock outstanding on November 8, 2007 was 100 shares, with 20,000,000 shares authorized (par value of $.001 per share).  The Common Stock shareholders and the Preferred Stock shareholders each vote as a single class, and both classes are entitled to one vote per share on all matters.  The Common Stock is traded on the “pink sheets” and there has been no registration statement filed for the Common Stock pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”).

IGR, as authorized by the necessary approvals of the Board and the holders of a majority of shares of the outstanding Common Stock (51.24%), has approved the adoption of an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation, a copy of which is attached hereto as Appendix B (the "Amendment"), to add or change, as the case may be, the following provisions:

·

The Corporation shall increase the authorized aggregate number of shares of Common Stock from 120,000,000, $0.00002 par value per share, to 200,000,000, $0.00002 par value per share.

·

Cumulative voting shall not be allowed in the election of directors.

·

Special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation may only be called by the Board pursuant to an affirmative resolution approved by an affirmative vote of the directors then in office.

The Amendment is scheduled to take place on or about January 11, 2008, but no earlier than 20 days from the date this Information Statement is first sent to the shareholders of IGR.

PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF THE AMENDMENT

The purpose and effect of the Amendment is threefold.  First, the Amendment increases the Company’s authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (there will be no affect on the Company’s authorized or outstanding shares of Preferred Stock).  More particularly, IGR will have 118,668,232 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding with an additional 81,331,768 authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock after the Amendment becomes effective.  The shares of Common Stock will continue trading on the pink sheets and there will be no registration statement filed for the Common Stock pursuant to the 1933 Act.  Second, the Amendment clarifies that cumulative voting, which enables a significant group of stockholders, though a minority, to elect a candidate of their choice, is not allowed.  Cumulative voting is not currently provided for in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, although it is permissible pursuant to Section 214 of the DGCL.  Third, the Amendment clarifies that special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation only may be called by the Board.  Pursuant to Section 211(d) of the DGCL, special meetings of the stockholders may be called by the Board or by such person(s) as authorized by the Board.

The above described changes to the Certificate of Incorporation are not intended to have any anti-takeover effect and are not part of any series of anti-takeover measures contained in any debt instrument or the Company's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws in effect on the date of this Information Statement.  However, IGR shareholders should note that the availability of additional authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock could make any attempt to gain control of the Company or its Board more difficult or time consuming and that the availability of the additional authorized and unissued shares might make it more difficult to remove the Company's management.  Although the Board presently has no intentions of doing so, shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock could be issued by the Board to dilute the percentage of Common Stock owned by a significant shareholder and increase the cost, or the number, of voting shares necessary to acquire control of the Board or to meet voting requirements imposed by Delaware law with respect to a merger or other business combination involving IGR.  The Company's management is not presently aware of any specific efforts to accumulate Company stock.

NO RIGHTS OF APPRAISAL

Pursuant to the DGCL, no stockholder that objects to the Amendment will have any right to receive from us the fair value of his, her, or its shares.  The DGCL provides that any provision of our Certificate of Incorporation may be amended by approval of the Board and the affirmative written consent of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon; provided that, any amendment that would adversely affect the rights of the holders of any class or series of capital stock must be approved by the holders of a majority of the shares of such class or series.  The Amendment was adopted by the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote thereon.

VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF

The following table sets forth information as of November 8, 2007 concerning shares of Common Stock with $0.00002 par value, and Preferred Stock, with $0.001 par value (the “Voting Securities”).  On November 8, 2007, the Company had 118,668,232 shares of Common Stock outstanding and 100 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding.
