ITEM 2.02 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

On May 21, 2009, beginning at 10:00 a.m. MST, Apollo Gold Corporation ("Apollo") hosted a conference call with investors to discuss Apollo's financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009. The conference call was made available to the public via conference call and audio webcast and a written presentation that accompanied the conference call was made available to the public at the time of the call and webcast through Apollo's website. The related written presentation referenced during the call is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached hereto are being furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for purpose of
Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Cautionary Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements.

The written presentation attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 contains and the conference call included "Forward-Looking Statements" within the meaning of section 21E of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "may," "should," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "schedules," "predicts," "intends," "continue," or the negative of such terms, or other comparable terminology. All statements regarding timing of gold pours and commencement of production at Black Fox, future throughput rates at the Black Fox mill, future production at recovery rates at Black Fox, expected cash costs at Black Fox, capital commitments at Black Fox, future work programs for the continued development at Black Fox, utilization of the $70 million project facility, placing the Montana Tunnels mine on care and maintenance and the associated costs therewith, statements respecting reserves relating to the Montana Tunnels mine, the timing of completion of an NI 43-101 for Apollo's Huizopa project, future capital expenditures at Apollo's Black Fox, Montana Tunnels and Huizopa projects and the sufficiency of cash funds are forward-looking statements that involve various risks and uncertainties. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include: additional operational, geotechnical, processing and remediation problems at the Montana Tunnels mine, unexpected changes in business and economic conditions, political or economic instability, significant decreases in gold, zinc or lead prices, results of drilling and other exploration activities at Huizopa, difficulties or delays in permitting at Black Fox, changes in interest and currency rates, local and community impacts and issues, labor accidents, environmental risks and other factors disclosed under the heading "Risk Factors" in Apollo's most recent annual report on Form 10-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and elsewhere in Apollo's documents filed from time to time with the Toronto Stock Exchange, the NYSE Amex exchange, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulatory authorities. All forward-looking statements included in this presentation are based on information available to Apollo on the date hereof. Apollo assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.


Non-GAAP Financial Measures.

The written presentation attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 contains and the conference call included certain non-GAAP financial measures including the term "total cash cost." The term "total cash cost" is a non-GAAP financial measure and is used on a per ounce of gold basis. Total cash cost is equivalent to direct operating cost as found on Apollo's Consolidated Statements of Operations and includes by-product credits for payable silver, lead, and zinc production. Apollo has included total cash cost information to provide investors with information about the cost structure of Apollo's mining operation. This information differs from measures of performance determined in accordance with GAAP in Canada and in the United States and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. This measure is not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. For a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to Apollo's Statements of Operations, see Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Apollo's most recent annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Cautionary Note to United States Investors Concerning Estimates of Mineral Resources.

The written presentation attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 uses and the conference call referenced the term mineral "resources." US investors are advised that while the term is recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the US Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize it. US investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in this category will ever be converted into mineral reserves.
