ASX/Media Announcement 16 January 2019

Bonanza Intercept of 4m at 44.7g/t Gold at Kouri

Highlights:

  • Exceptional high grade shallow gold intercepts obtained from a newly identified footwall shear, which lies adjacent to the 1.4Moz gold Mineral Resource at Kouri, including:

o 4m at 44.7g/t gold from 34m, including 2m at 89.5g/t gold (BARC327); and

o 3m at 8.4g/t gold from 10m, including 1m at 18.8g/t gold (BARC333).

  • Intercept of 4m at 44.7g/t gold ( 178.8m x g/t gold ) is the best gold intercept obtained at Kouri to date and is located ~500m from the Mineral Resource within a river channel with alluvial sediment cover.

  • Recent structural study completed by SRK interpreted the footwall shear as the main fluid transfer pathway for the mineralising fluids into the Mineral Resource area.

  • Footwall shear and its associated > 5km long magnetic anomaly to be a prioritised for further drilling.

  • Identification of the footwall shear and new intercepts highlight the significant potential to further extend the Mineral Resource.

Emerging West African gold explorer, Golden Rim Resources Ltd (ASX: GMR) ( Golden Rim or the Company ), is pleased to provide the results from its reverse circulation ( RC ) drilling program conducted in the 1.4Moz gold Mineral Resource area at its 100% owned Kouri Gold Project ( Kouri ) in Burkina Faso (Figure 1).

The new RC drilling comprises 23 holes (BARC314 – BARC336) for 2,867m. Hole details are provided in Table 1 and significant assay results are listed in Table 2. Hole locations and new drilling intercepts are depicted on Figure 2.

A number of significant new gold intercepts were obtained from a footwall shear, which lies adjacent to the Mineral Resource, including:

  • 4m at 44.7g/t gold from 34m, including 2m at 89.5g/t gold from 34m (BARC327);

  • 3m at 8.4g/t gold from 10m, including 1m at 18.8g/t gold from 11m (BARC333); and

  • 12m at 0.7g/t gold from 32m (BARC328).

The recent structural study competed by SRK Consulting ( SRK ) at Kouri interpreted the main cross-cutting east-west magnetic linear anomaly in the Mineral Resource area as a footwall shear and that this footwall shear may be the main fluid transfer pathway that mobilised mineralising fluids into the Mineral Resource area.

Golden Rim Resources Ltd I ABN 39 006 710 774 I Level 2, 609 Canterbury Road, Surrey HillsVIC3127, Australia I PO Box 124, Surrey Hills VIC 3127, Australia www.goldenrim.com.au I [email protected] I T + 61 3 9836 4146

The footwall shear is associated with a magnetic high anomaly that extends for at least 5km within the Kouri licence (Figure 2). To date, only limited drilling has been conducted along the footwall shear and Golden Rim is now planning a systematic drilling program to test the anomaly to the east and west of the high grade intercepts. Further, there are a number of additional similarly oriented shear zones throughout the Kouri project area that offer attractive future exploration targets (Figure 1).

The new high grade gold mineralisation lies in a river channel under alluvial sediment cover. The river channel is dry for most of the year and trenching is to commence shortly to confirm the orientation of the mineralisation prior to further drilling.

Commenting on the latest results from Kouri, Golden Rim’s Managing Director, Craig Mackay, said:

“We are excited about the very high grade gold intersections obtained from the footwall shear and the river channel to the west of the 1.4Moz gold Mineral Resource at Kouri.

The magnetic anomaly associated with the footwall shear offers a highly attractive exploration target. The anomaly extends for more than 5km within the Kouri licence and then continues for at least the same distance into the Goueli and Margou licences that Golden Rim is currently in the process of acquiring.

To date, the footwall shear has only been subjected to limited drilling and therefore we look forward to systematically testing this target.”

Appendix 1: JORC Code (2012 Edition), Assessment and Reporting Criteria

Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data

Criteria JORC Code Explanation Explanation
Sampling
Techniques
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels,
random chips, or specific specialised industry
standard measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as down hole
gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments,
etc.). These examples should not be taken as
limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
The sampling described in this report refers to reverse
circulation (RC) drilling.
RC samples are collected by a three-tier riffle splitter using
downhole sampling hammers with nominal 127 to 140mm
holes.
Samples were all collected by qualified geologists or under
geological supervision.
The samples are judged to be representative of the rock
being drilled.
The nature and quality of sampling is carried out under
QAQC procedures as per industry standards.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure
sample representivity and the appropriate
calibration of any measurement tools or systems
used.
Sampling is guided by Golden Rim’s protocols and Quality
Control procedures as per industry standards.
To ensure representative sampling, 1m RC samples are
collected from a cyclone, passing them through a 3-tier riffle
splitter (producing a 2kg sample). Duplicate samples are
taken every 30thsample.
Measures were taken to avoid wet RC drilling.
Aspects of the determination of mineralisation
that are Material to the Public Report.
In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been
done this would be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse
circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m
samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to
produce a 30g charge for fire assay’). In other
cases, more explanation may be required, such
as where there is coarse gold that has inherent
sampling problems. Unusual commodities or
mineralisation types (e.g. submarine nodules)
may warrant disclosure of detailed information.
RC samples are crushed through a RDS Boyd crusher to -
2mm and pulverised via LM2 to a nominal 90% passing -
75μm.
All drill samples were submitted to BIGS Laboratory in
Ouagadougou for preparation and analysis.
A 200g sub-sample is taken from the RC samples for
analysis. A 50g charge weight is fused with litharge-based
flux, cupelled and the prill dissolved in aqua regia and gold
tenor is determined by AAS.
Drilling
Techniques
Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-
hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka,
sonic, etc.) and details (e.g. core diameter, triple
or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-
sampling bit or other type, whether core is
oriented and if so, by what method, etc.).
The RC rig used by Ausdrill was a track mounted DRA 600
rig with a 500 psi/1350cfm compressor.
RC drilling was carried out using a 4.5-inch face sampling
hammer. All drill holes were planned to be drilled at -55
degrees. This is considered an optimum angle for
intersecting the mineralisation.
Downhole surveying occurred (where-ever possible) at 30m
intervals down hole.
The location of each hole was recorded by hand held GPS
with positional accuracy of approximately +/-5m.
Drill sample
recovery
Method of recording and assessing core and chip
sample recoveries and results assessed.
All RC samples are weighed to determine recoveries.
Samples are recovered directly from the rig (via the cyclone
and a 3-tier riffle splitter) in 1m intervals.
Measures taken to maximise sample recovery Drill samples are visuallychecked for recovery,moisture and

Criteria JORC Code Explanation Explanation
and ensure representative nature of the samples. contamination.
RC recoveries are logged and recorded in the database.
Overall recoveries are >95% for the RC. There are no
significant sample recovery problems.
A technician is always present at the rig to monitor and
record recovery.
The RC rig has an auxiliary compressor and boosters to help
maintain dry samples. When wet samples are encountered,
the RC drilling is discontinued.
Whether a relationship exists between sample
recovery and grade and whether sample bias
may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain
of fine/coarse material.
No relationship is seen to exist between sample recovery
and grade.
No sample bias is due to preferential loss/gain of any
fine/coarse material due to the acceptable sample recoveries
obtained by both drilling methods.
Logging Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a level
of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource
estimation, mining studies and metallurgical
studies.
Logging of RC samples recorded lithology, mineralogy,
mineralisation, weathering, alteration, colour and other
features of the samples.
The geological logging was done using a standardised
logging system. This information and the sampling details
were transferred into Golden Rim’s drilling database.
All drilling has been logged to a standard that is appropriate
for the category of Resource which is being reported.
Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in
nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc)
photography.
Logging is both qualitative and quantitative, depending on
the field being logged.
The total length and percentage of the relevant
intersections logged.
100% of each relevant intersection is logged in detail.
Sub-sampling
techniques
and sample
preparation
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter,
half or all core taken.
No drill core was reported in this announcement
If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary
split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry.
RC samples were collected on the rig using a three-tier riffle
splitter. The majority of the samples were dry.
On the rare occasion that wet samples were encountered,
they were dried prior to splitting with a riffle splitter.
The standard RC sample interval was 1m.
The entire auger sample was submitted for assay, so no
sub-sampling is required.
For all sample types, the nature, quality and
appropriateness of the sample preparation
technique.
Samples were transported by road to BIGS Laboratory in
Ouagadougou.
The sample preparation for all samples follows industry best
practice.
At the laboratory, all samples were weighed, dried and
crushed to -2mm in a jaw crusher. A split of the crushed
sample was subsequently pulverised in a ping mill to achieve
a nominal particle size of 90% passing 75 μm.

Page | 8

==> picture [595 x 85] intentionally omitted <==

Criteria JORC Code Explanation Explanation
Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-
sampling stages to maximise representivity of
samples.
Golden Rim has protocols that cover the sample preparation
at the laboratories and the collection and assessment of data
to ensure that accurate steps are used in producing
representative samples.
The crusher and pulveriser are flushed with barren material
at the start of every batch.
Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is
representative of the in-situ material collected,
including for instance results for field
duplicate/second-half sampling.
Sampling is carried out in accordance with Golden Rim’s
protocols as per industry best practice.
Field QC procedures involve the use of certified reference
material as assay standards, blanks and duplicates for the
auger samples.
Field duplicates were taken on 1m RC splits using a riffle
splitter.
Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the
grain size of the material being sampled.
The sample sizes are considered appropriate to correctly
represent the style of mineralisation, the thickness and
consistency of the intersections.
Quality of
assay data and
laboratory
tests
The nature, quality and appropriateness of the
assaying and laboratory procedures used and
whether the technique is considered partial or
total.
For the RC samples the laboratory used an aqua regia
digest followed by fire assay with an AAS finish for gold
analysis.
The analytical method is considered appropriate for this
mineralisation style and is of industry standard.
The quality of the assaying and laboratory procedures are
considered to be appropriate for this deposit type.
For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld
XRF instruments, etc., the parameters used in
determining the analysis including instrument
make and model, reading times, calibrations
factors applied and their derivation, etc.
No geophysical tools were used to determine any element
concentrations.
Nature of quality control procedures adopted (e.g.
standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory
checks) and whether acceptable levels of
accuracy (i.e. lack of bias) and precision have
been established.
Sample preparation checks for fineness were carried out by
the laboratory as part of their internal procedures to ensure
the grind size of 90% passing 75 microns.
Internal laboratory QAQC checks are reported by the
laboratory.
Review of the internal laboratory QAQC suggests the
laboratory is performing within acceptable limits.
For RC samples, Golden Rim inserts one blank, one
standard and one duplicate for every 30 samples.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying
The verification of significant intersections by
either independent or alternative company
personnel.
Reported results are compiled and verified by the
Company’s Senior Geologist and the Managing Director.
The use of twinned holes. None of the drill holes in this report are twinned.
Documentation of primary data, data entry
procedures, data verification, data storage
(physical and electronic) protocols.
Primary field data is collected by Golden Rim geologists on
standardised logging sheets. This data is compiled and
digitally captured.

Page | 9

==> picture [595 x 85] intentionally omitted <==

Criteria JORC Code Explanation Explanation
The compiled digital data is verified and validated by the
Company’s database geologist.
Discuss any adjustment to assay data. The primary data is kept on file. There were no adjustments
to the assay data.
Location of
data points
Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate
drill holes (collar and down-hole surveys),
trenches, mine workings and other locations used
in Mineral Resource estimation.
RC Collar locations were recorded by hand held GPS with a
positional accuracy of approximately +/- 5 metres.
Down-hole surveys were completed at the end of every RC
hole (where possible) using a Reflex down-hole survey tool.
Measurements were taken at approximately every 50
meters.
At the completion of the program all holes will be surveyed
with a DGPS, which has locational accuracy of +/- 0.1m, X,
Y and Z.
Specification of the grid system used. Location data was collected in either UTM grid WGS84, zone
31 North or UTM grid WGS84, zone 30 North
Quality and adequacy of topographic control. Topographic control was established by using a survey base
station.
Data spacing
and
distribution
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results. RC Drilling conducted has been conducted along a line, with
holes spaced at 50m along that line.
Whether the data spacing and distribution is
sufficient to establish the degree of geological
and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral
Resource and Ore Reserve estimation
procedure(s) and classifications applied.
RC drill collar spacing and distribution are sufficient for
exploration drilling.
Whether sample compositing has been applied. There was no sample composting.
Orientation of
data in relation
to geological
structure
Whether the orientation of sampling achieves
unbiased sampling of possible structures and the
extent to which this is known, considering the
deposit type.
All RC drill holes reported here were drilled approximately at
right angles (180 degrees) to the strike of the target
mineralisation.
If the relationship between the drilling orientation
and the orientation of key mineralised structures
is considered to have introduced a sampling bias,
this should be assessed and reported if material.
No orientation-based sampling bias has been identified in
the data at this point.
Sample
security
The measures taken to ensure sample security. Samples are stored on site prior to road transport by
Company personnel to the laboratory in Ouagadougou,
Burkina Faso.
Audits or
reviews
The results of any audits or reviews of sampling
techniques and data.
There has been no external audit or review of the
Company’s techniques or data.

Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.
The Kouri Project covers part of a highly prospective Lower
Proterozoic Birimian, Samira Hill Greenstone belt and is
traversed by a significant NE-trending fault splay which is
connected to the major Markoye Fault system. This fault
system controls several major gold deposits in Burkina
Faso, including Kiaka (5.9 Moz), Bomboré (5.2 Moz) and
Essakan (7 Moz).
The mineralisation lies in a package of highly altered
volcanic and volcaniclastic host rocks and is associated with
a major gold-in-soil anomaly and a prominent dilational
structural jog along a regional NE-trending shear zone.
Drill hole

intercept
lengths
These relationships are particularly important in
the reporting of Exploration Results.
The reported RC results are from exploration drilling,
designed to test possible extensions to the known Mineral
Resource..
If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect
to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should
be reported.
The orientation of the mineralised zone has been
established and the RC drilling was planned in such a way
as to intersect mineralisation in a perpendicular manner.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths
are reported, there should be a clear statement to
this effect (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width not
known’).
Not applicable in this document
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and
tabulations of intercepts should be included for
any significant discovery being reported These
should include, but not be limited to a plan view of
drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional
views.
Maps are provided in the main text.
Balanced
reporting
Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration
Results is not practicable, representative
reporting of both low and high grades and/or
widths should be practiced to avoid misleading
reporting of Exploration Results.
The accompanying document is considered to represent a
balanced report.
Other
substantive
exploration
data
Other exploration data, if meaningful and material,
should be reported including (but not limited to):
geological observations; geophysical survey
results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples
– size and method of treatment; metallurgical test
results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical
and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or
contaminating substances.
There is no other exploration data which is considered
material to the results reported in the announcement.
Further work The nature and scale of planned further work (eg
tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or
large-scale step-out drilling).
Promising results will be followed up (where practicable)
with trenching and RC drilling.
Exploration and infill drilling will continue to target projected
lateral and depth extensions of the mineralisation and to
increase the confidence in the Mineral Resource.
Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of
possible extensions, including the main geological
interpretations and future drilling areas, provided
this information is not commercially sensitive.
