Project Description Submission and Update
The Company, working with its consultants, continues to advance the Independence project with an updated NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate anticipated in mid H1 2021, followed by a PEA during H2 2021.

This proposal has been sent to the BLM for their review and commentary.
In Q4 2020, Golden Independence completed a 23 hole RC drill program at the Independence project designed to confirm and expand the project's Historical resource. Assays from seven of these holes have been released to date with the balance anticipated before the end of Q1 2021. Results from these holes will be incorporated into the upcoming NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate.
An additional 13 RC holes were completed in Q1 2021 with assays pending. Results from these drill holes may or may not be included in the upcoming resource estimate subject to receipt of assays.
