Goldstrike Provides Corporate Update

Goldstrike Resources Ltd. (GSR.V)

 is pleased to provide a corporate update regarding the status of the Company and its assets.

COVID-19 ResponseIn response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Goldstrike corporate office in downtown Vancouver is currently closed. All staff are working from home and steps have been taken to ensure operations are proceeding as effectively as possible. Goldstrike will continue to monitor the situation and act within the guidelines and recommendations of the provincial, territorial, and federal governments in which it operates.

Plateau PropertyGoldstrike’s 662 km2 Plateau Property, located 120 km east of Mayo, Yukon Territory, remains the Company’s flagship property and core asset. This newly discovered, district-scale gold system hosts high-grade gold along a 50-kilometre strike length in the underexplored Selwyn Basin. In addition to Plateau, the Selwyn Basin also hosts recent discoveries by ATAC Resources Ltd.  of Carlin-type deposits at the Osiris project (1.68M oz gold (Au), inferred resource), and the carbonate-replacement-type Tiger deposit (464,000 oz Au, measured + indicated resource).  The Selwyn Basin also hosts the Yukon’s newest and largest gold mine: Victoria Gold Corp.’s Eagle Deposit (3.3M oz Au, proven + probable reserves). Most recently, Seabridge Gold announced an agreement to acquire the 3 Aces gold project (located in the southeast corner of the Selwyn) from the Golden Predator Mining Corp. Due to these many new and evolving projects, industry and academic interest in the Selwyn remains strong.  

Data EvaluationOver the last year, Goldstrike and our team of consultants have been evaluating the massive data package that was obtained by Newmont during its option agreement term with Plateau from 2017 to 2019. This data includes airborne geophysical surveys, such as airborne EM (electro-magnetic), airborne magnetic and radiometric, and property-wide LiDAR surveys. Newmont also completed geochemical surveys, such as its proprietary regional stream sediment sampling (BLEG) survey and obtained more than 5,500 soil samples. Using this data set, Goldstrike’s goals are to further develop and expand known showings at Plateau, and to evaluate the mineral potential of underexplored areas of the property.

Access ImprovementsGoldstrike has undertaken plans to improve access to the Goldstack zone (Discovery hole - 13.25 g/t Au over 17.5m,) to reduce or remove the need for helicopter support. The zone is located less than 1 kilometre from Goldstack Lake, the primary float-plane access point for the Plateau Property.

Future Exploration PlansA 2018 orientation IP (induced polarization) survey at Goldstack indicated the zone displays a distinct and robust chargeability signature. The Company believes at this time that IP surveying is the most effective tool available for finding similar or larger zones of mineralization in the immediate area, and as such is designing a large-scale IP survey over the Goldstack area.

PartnershipsOn a corporate level, the Company is discussing multiple options and structures to move the Plateau Project forward and build value. For more information, an updated corporate presentation can be found on our new website here.

Beyond PlateauGoldstrike Resources continues to be a pure gold explorer. The Company is currently evaluating gold projects of merit across Canada and the United States with the intention of acquisition. The Goldstrike team is committed to grow the Company and build value for our shareholders.

Annual FilingsThe company is pleased to announce that it has filed its audited annual financial statements and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis (the “MD&A”) for the financial year ended December 31, 2019 (collectively, the “Annual Filings”) on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (“SEDAR”).  To review a copy of the Annual Filings, please visit www.sedar.com.

Message from the President“During these challenging times, our first and foremost priority is the safety and well-being of our staff. We are taking the time now to form strategies to safely and effectively execute meaningful work programs this season. We firmly believe that gold exploration in stable jurisdictions is where real value will be built for our investors. As the Company sits today, we have over $2M cash in the bank, just under 10M shares outstanding, and an excellent core asset. Having the right team, financial support and structure, we are uniquely positioned to seize opportunities as they present themselves.”
