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.

- 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.

Indicator Minerals in Gold Exploration (Updated 2024)

Indicator Minerals in Gold Exploration (Updated 2024)

Indicator minerals, also known as pathfinder minerals, are used by those engaged in mineral exploration to effectively narrow down the search area for many different types of ore deposits.

When found as grains in sediments and/or rocks, these minerals give clues as to the presence and location of specific types of mineralization. They tend to be used in the search for gold, copper, nickel, tungsten, diamond and platinum-group metals deposits.

In indicator mineral-based exploration programs, sediments and rocks are either geochemically tested or visually inspected for clues about the distance and direction of their source. When it comes to visual inspection, rocks are examined for certain grain morphologies and surface textures in order to obtain information about transport distance and bedrock source.

"This is the time where a lot of the hyperbolic statements that people like me make, and have been making for the last three or four years — this is the time where it's really ripe for those things to actually play out."
