______

KADA GOLD PROJECT, GUINEA

During the quarter, Golden Rim completed seven diamond drill holes (KDH004 – KDH008, KDH010 – KDH011) for 1,570m and eight RC drill holes (KRC001 – KRC008) for 1,036m in its first round of Mineral Resource definition drilling at Kada. The drilling is focussed in an area where Newmont outlined a non-JORC gold resource in 2012 after completing nearly 34,000m of drilling. Delivery of the maiden JORC 2012 resource for Kada remains on track for H2 CY21.

Drill hole collar details are provided in Table 1 and the hole locations are depicted on Figure 1.

Golden Rim received assays during the quarter for the first two diamond holes (KDH004 & KDH005) which both lie on drill section 1,224,200mN (Figure 2).

The new assay results are encouraging with broad, sub-parallel zones of gold mineralisation obtained in both KDH004 and KDH005. Best gold intersections from these holes (0.3g/t gold cut-off) include:

KDH004: 18m at 1.3g/t gold from 0m

13m at 1.2g/t gold from 30m

31m at 0.6g/t gold from 130m KDH005: 16m at 1.6g/t gold from 27m

13m at 0.9g/t gold from 144m 10m at 1.1g/t gold from 164m 17m at 1.0g/t gold from 183m 20m at 1.2g/t gold from 204m 22m at 0.6g/t gold from 232m 24m at 0.7g/t gold from 259m 20m at 0.5g/t gold from 302m

The gold intersections in the oxide and transition zones are generally higher in grade than the intersections in fresh rock. On drill section 1,224,200mN the oxide and transition zones extend to ~60m and ~120m respectively below surface.

Previous Newmont oxide gold intersections on 1,224,200mN include 41m at 2.1g/t gold from 0m (NSC003), 40m at 1.6g/t gold from 0m (NSAC104), 30m at 1.8g/t gold from 11m (NSRC196), 61m at 1.3g/t gold from 7m (NSRC197 and 56m at 1.6g/t gold from 0m (NSAC167) (Figure 2). The strongest gold oxide mineralisation on 1,224,200mN lies west of KDH004 and KDH005 and has been tested by KDH007 and KRC006 recently completed by Golden Rim. Assays for these latter holes were pending at quarter end.

The gold zones lie within a 500m wide corridor, with the oxide zone of the corridor almost entirely mineralised. The Newmont gold resource area incorporates the gold zones for a strike length of approximately 800m.

Figure 2. Drill section 1,224,200mN with assays for KDH004 & KDH005. Assays for KDH007 & KRC006 on this section were pending at the end of the quarter.

With the onset of the rainy season, Golden Rim postponed its major regional auger drilling program exploring for gold mineralised saprolite (weathered bedrock) outside the Newmont gold resource area and under the shallow laterite and soil cover, which lies across the bulk of the project area. A total of total of 2,921 holes for 30,506m were completed. Assays for 1,782 holes were pending at quarter end.

The auger drilling has identified strongly gold anomalous bedrock in the corridor for 1.4km north and 2.4km south of the Newmont gold resource area, suggesting there is excellent potential to significantly extend the gold zones along strike (Figures 1 & 3).

KOURI GOLD PROJECT, BURKINA FASO

During the quarter, Golden Rim completed five diamond drill holes (DDH001 – DDH005) for a total of 802m at the Diabatou Gold Shoot to follow-up high-grade gold intersections obtained in previous RC drilling. Drill hole collar details are provided in Table 2 and the hole locations are depicted in Figure 4.

DDH004 intersected 3m at 10.9g/t gold , from 201m, 50m beneath the bottom of the current Mineral Resource pit shell and 70m beneath an intercept of 2m at 14.4g/t gold in previous RC hole MRC040. The new high-grade intersection extends the Diabatou Gold Shoot at depth from 140m to 190m below surface and the shoot remains open at depth.

==> picture [488 x 307] intentionally omitted <==

Golden Rim also completed three diamond drill holes (BADH016 – BADH018) for 330m targeting extensions to areas of high-grade gold mineralisation obtained in previous drill holes in the Central Lodes. Drill collar details are provided in Table 2. Hole locations are depicted on Figure 5.

Hole BADH016 returned a high-grade gold intersection of 4m at 23.3g/t gold from 67m, including 1m at 85.4g/t gold . The new intersection lies on a parallel gold lode located 25m east of a highgrade gold lode intersected in previous RC holes, including BARC279 which returned 6m at 25.2g/t gold from 8m, including 1m at 114g/t gold , and BARC278 which returned 3m at 9.3 g/t gold from 53m.

Figure 5. Plan depicting the location of new diamond holes BADH016, BADH017 and BADH018; previous DD/RC drill holes; and auger holes in the Central Lodes.

These gold intersections are interpreted to be related to a high-grade gold shoot (Kom Gold Shoot) which is comprised of a series of close-spaced, parallel lodes over a strike extent of approximately 300m. The lodes remain open at depth and along strike to the northeast and southeast. The highestgrade portion of the shoot (+20g/t gold) is interpreted to plunge almost vertically.

The Kom Gold Shoot lies on a line of gold lodes (Kom Lodes) which comprise the southern portion of the Central Lodes (Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource of 1.9Moz at 1.2g/t gold[1] ) and where occurrences of very high-grade gold mineralisation are known. Rock chip sample assays up to 818g/t gold and drill intercepts up to 7m at 11.0g/t gold from 141m, including 1m at 60g/t gold (BARC001) were previously reported by Golden Rim on the Kom Lode, 750m along strike to the northeast of the Kom Gold Shoot.

There are a several extensive gaps in the RC/diamond drilling coverage along the Kom Lodes. An area northeast of the Kom Gold Shoot where Golden Rim obtained auger samples up to 2,449ppb gold (2.4g/t gold) offers a priority target for follow-up drilling.

With the onset of the rainy season, drilling at Kouri, including follow-up on the Kom Gold Shoot, has been postponed until October – November.

1 ASX announcement: Kouri Mineral Resource Increases by 43% Increase to 2 Million ounces Gold dated 26 October 2020 (Total Mineral Resource includes: Indicated Mineral Resource of 7Mt at 1.4g/t gold and Inferred Mineral Resource of 43Mt at 1.2g/t gold for 2Moz gold. Includes Central Lodes Mineral Resource: Indicated Mineral Resource of 7Mt at 1.4g/t gold and Inferred Mineral Resource of 41Mt at 1.2g/t gold for 1.9Moz gold).

PAGUANTA COPPER-ZINC-SILVER-LEAD PROJECT, CHILE

During the quarter, Golden Rim received assay results from 12 rock chip samples collected at the Loreto porphyry copper target, part of its Paguanta Project in Chile. It received anomalous molybdenum results (up to 25ppm Mo ) in samples located northwest (on the other side of a major drainage with recent sediment cover) and south of previous samples with anomalous molybdenum.

As molybdenum is a geochemically immobile element, it is an excellent porphyry pathfinder, highlighting the centre of the porphyry cell. The new results suggest the porphyry centre at Loreto may be approximately 2.3km x 1km , double the area suggested by previous sampling (Figure 6).

Golden Rim is preparing access agreements with landowners before constructing an access road and commencing exploration at Loreto.

ABOUT GOLDEN RIM RESOURCES

Golden Rim Resources Limited is an ASX listed exploration company with a portfolio of advanced minerals projects in Guinea and Burkina Faso, West Africa and in Chile, South America.

The Company recently announced an agreement to acquire the Kada Gold Project in eastern Guinea. Guinea remains one of the most under-explored countries in West Africa. Kada was previously explored by Newmont who completed 34km of drilling and defined a non-JORC gold resource. With infill drilling Golden Rim believes a maiden JORC Mineral Resource can be defined at Kada in the nearterm.

The Company discovered and has outlined a 2Moz Mineral Resource at the Kouri Gold Project, located in north-east Burkina Faso. Kouri is currently Golden Rim’s flagship project and it covers 325km[2 ] of highly prospective Birimian greenstones. As exploration progresses, significant additional gold mineralisation, including a high-grade gold shoot, has been discovered and the gold inventory at Kouri is expected to grow.

In northern Chile, Golden Rim has the Paguanta Silver-Lead-Zinc-Copper Project. Historically a silver mine, the Company has outlined a Mineral Resource comprising 6.8Moz silver, 74Mlb lead and 265Mlb zinc at Paguanta. The Mineral Resource remains open. In addition, the project has several exceptional porphyry-copper targets that remain untested. With Golden Rim’s focus on gold in West Africa, the Company is seeking to divest the project.
