Golden Independence Provides Independence Project Update

Golden Independence Mining Corp. (CSE: IGLD) (OTCQB: GIDMF) (FSE: 6NN) (the "Company" or "Golden Independence") is pleased to provide an update on ongoing permitting and project-related activities at it's Independence heap-leach development project in Nevada.

  • NDEP approval for geochemical sampling & analysis plan
  • Commencement of NV Energy engineering study
  • NOI for additional resource and geotechnical drilling
  • Re-sampling and assaying of 725 feet of historical core drilling

"We continue to advance the Independence project along the development path, in addition to derisking the project." commented Jeremy Poirier, Chief Executive Officer. "We have engaged the leading power provider, NV Energy, to complete a scoping study along a new services corridor for stand-alone development. With the water rights we have already secured, the power corridor represents the last outstanding piece of critical project infrastructure required. In addition, we continue to refine the resource model with the resampling of over 725 feet of historical core and through the permitting for additional oxide resource expansion and geotechnical drilling. The expedited permitting and development timeline represents a significant strength of the project, relative to other projects in the State of Nevada."

NDEP Approval of Geochemical Sampling and Analysis Plan

The State of Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP) has approved the Company's geochemical sampling and analysis plan for the proposed open-pit heap-leach operation as outlined in the January 2022 Preliminary Economic Assessment. This represents the culmination of over one year's worth of humidity cell testing and analysis of 150 selected representative samples.

Commencement of Scoping Study with NV Energy

The Company has engaged NV Energy, the leading power and utility company servicing northern and southern Nevada, to provide an engineering study on providing independent power services for the development and operation of the Independence project. The commencement of this study comes as a result of a successful wildlife and fauna study across the proposed new corridor for independent power and services to support the proposed project.

NOI for Additional Resource and Geotechnical Drilling

The Company has filed two (2) amended Notice of Intent permits with the Nevada Bureau of Land Management (Nevada BLM) for additional oxide resource expansion and geotechnical drilling totalling 41 proposed drill holes totaling an estimated 27,500 feet.

Resampling and Assaying of Historical Core Drilling

The Company has also undertaken a program of relogging and resampling of historical drilling, as the deeper drilling on the project targeting the skarn mineralization left the upper portions of mineralization uninvestigated. Specifically, 725 feet of samples from IND#1 (from 144.5 - 136.5 ft and 325 - 607 ft) and IND#7 (8 - 97 ft, 197.5 - 213 ft, 236 - 312 ft, and 2,604 - 2,703 ft) have been sent to the lab for assays.

The technical content of this news release has been reviewed and approved by R. Tim Henneberry, P.Geo. (BC), a Director and President of Golden Independence Mining Corp. and a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101.

Golden Independence Acquires Fraser Lake Copper Porphyry Project

Golden Independence Mining Corp. (CSE: IGLD) (OTCQB: GIDMF) (FSE: 6NN) (the "Company" or "Golden Independence") announces the acquisition by staking of the Fraser Lake copper project located in the Quesnel Trough of Central British Columbia.

"The addition of the Fraser Lake copper project provides the Company with portfolio diversification, at a very low cost due to staking and without the typical encumbrances of royalties or work commitments," commented Jeremy Poirier, Chief Executive Officer. "This large land position within the prolific Quesnel Trough is prospective for copper porphyries of which gold and molybdenum are typically associated. We are currently reviewing the historical data on the project, including geophysical surveys completed in the late 2000's, and will provide an update on exploration plans once completed."

Golden Independence Announces Results from Ongoing Exploration at the Independence Project, Nevada

Golden Independence Announces Results from Ongoing Exploration at the Independence Project, Nevada

Golden Independence Mining Corp. (CSE: IGLD) (OTCQB: GIDMF) (FSE: 6NN) (the "Company") is pleased to provide an update from ongoing exploration activities at the Company's Independence Oxide Heap Leach project (the "Project") which adjoins Nevada Gold Mines' Phoenix-Fortitude mining operations in the Battle Mountain-Cortez trend of Nevada.

Since tabling a PEA for near-surface heap-leach operation at the Project, the Company has been focused on improving the metrics of the project which yielded an after-tax NPV5% of US$45M and IRR of 22%. Specifically, exploration has been focused on delineating additional near-surface oxide resources to expand the open pit and reclassify waste with mineralized material. Both of the aforementioned would have the possibility to increase the production profile, extend the mine life, and improve project economics from a cost and valuation perspective (i.e., NPV and IRR).

(CSE:BOOM)(OTC PINK:GGDCF)(Frankfurt:W9F) (the "Company" or "Galloper") is pleased to announce that Phase 1 diamond drilling has commenced at the Company's Glover Island Project where Galloper's 100%-owned claims cover most of the 40-km-long under-explored Island situated in the prolific "Four Corners" region of Western Newfoundland featuring major deposits of gold, copper and salt

Galloper's initial drilling is targeting a significant expansion of the known orogenic gold system at Glover Island, while a potential new discovery is emerging adjacent to the gold trend on the western side of the Island where a multi-kilometre-long copper anomaly has been identified through recent Galloper soil sampling combined with an historic VTEM Survey.
