doc min;
And an example:
A = magic(100);
[Amin minidx] = min(A(:));

I think you are looking for the minimum across both dimensions; something like this:
A = magic(5);
minValue = min(min(A));
[ind1, ind2] = find(A==minValue);
There are other ways to do this. For example, you can reshape the 2D array into a 1D array, and call min(), but then you have to convert the index back to the equivalent value for the 2D array using ind2sub(). I'm not sure wich is fast for large arrays, but the above method is more intuitive (in my opinion).
