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

Vancouver – Golden Independence Mining Corp. (CSE: IGLD) (OTCQB: GIDMF) (FSE: 6NN) (the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on ongoing exploration activities at the Company’s Independence Oxide Heap Leach Project which adjoins Nevada Gold Mines’ The Phoenix-Fortitude mining operations in the battle mountain– Trendy Cortez from Nevada.

Since filing a PEA for a near-surface heap leach operation at the project, the company has focused on improving project metrics that yielded an after-tax NPV of 5% of 45 million US dollars and IRR of 22%. Specifically, exploration has focused on delineating additional near-surface oxide resources to expand the open pit and reclassify the waste with mineralized material. Both of the above would have the potential to increase the production profile, extend mine life, and improve project economics from a cost and evaluation perspective (i.e. d. NPV and IRR).

Jeremy PoirierCEO and Director of Golden Independence, said, “We continue to look for opportunities to improve the December 2021 Preliminary economic assessment. The objective of the current exploration program is to identify locations for possible follow-up drilling to expand near surface oxide resources. We are encouraged by the initial results of sampling at the proposed open pit, as not only does it have the potential to increase oxide ounces, but those ounces would already be largely accounted for in the economy as they are currently classified as waste, notwithstanding the potential for additional ‘high quality’ food.

The exploration program consists of surface sampling both within the current open pit and east and west of the pit boundary, in addition to sampling from previously unsampled drill holes conducted by previous operators.
