Golden Ridge Resources Completes Airborne Geophysical Survey and Mobilizes Drilling Crews to Its Heritage Project, Newfoundland and Labrador

(TheNewswire)



Golden Ridge Resources Ltd. ("Golden Ridge" or the "Company") (TSXV:GLDN) is pleased to announce the completion of a property-wide high-resolution airborne magnetic survey completed at its Heritage epithermal Au-Ag project (the "Heritage Project"), located on the Burin peninsula near Point May, Newfoundland and Labrador. The survey provided high-resolution magnetics coverage over its Heritage, Eagle's Talon and Eagle's Claw projects

Drilling is expected to commence this week, with the initial holes to be drilled at the Eagle zone. This will be the largest drill program conducted to date on the Heritage Project. The Company will also be reviewing historic core for additional assaying as only select intervals over the previous years have been sent for analysis.

Highlights of the Airborne Geophysical Survey

- A total of 2,286-line kilometers were flown

- High resolution 75m line spacing was flown over known mineral occurrences which will greatly aid the Company as it prepares for its maiden drill program and field programs.

- Processing of data and inversions currently underway with final results expected forthwith

- The survey represents the first ever airborne geophysical survey completed on the Heritage Project and will greatly aid the Company's exploration efforts moving forward.

Drill Plan Highlights

- Drilling on the Heritage Project will initially focus on the Eagle zone which is currently the most robust and well defined epithermal system discovered on the property.

- Initial drilling will target lateral and at depth extensions on the Eagle zone to continue to define and confirm structural control on high grade Au-Ag mineralization.

- The Eagle zone currently extends for 750m along strike and approximately 50m in width. Drilling has been confined to approximately 100m of true vertical depth. The Eagle zone is currently open to the north and south and at depth.
