GOLDCLIFF EXPANDS SURFACE SAMPLING TO ADVANCE DRILL
TARGETING AT KETTLE VALLEY GOLD-SILVER PROJECT
Vancouver, B.C. – George Sanders, President of Goldcliff Resource Corporation (“Goldcliff” or the
“Company”) (TSX.V: GCN | OTC: GCFFF), reports that the Company has initiated an expanded
surface sampling program at its Kettle Valley gold-silver project near Rock Creek, B.C. The
program is focused on increasing sample density in and around previously identified anomalous
soil and rock geochemical results, with the objective of refining and prioritizing future drill targets.
Background and Previous Results
Initial geochemical soil sampling conducted in 2021 outlined several anomalous trends, including a
strong gold-silver soil anomaly in the northern portion of the Cliff Zone, now referred to as
the North Cliff Zone. Reconnaissance prospecting and preliminary surface sampling completed at
that time confirmed anomalous to elevated values, including:
Rock samples exceeding 0.30 g/t gold (Au)
Sample 21-35 returning 2.62 g/t Au and 181 g/t silver (Ag)
In November 2025, construction of drill access trails and four drill pads in the North Cliff Zone
provided new bedrock exposure. Follow-up sampling confirmed the presence of free gold, with
assays of up to 2.70 g/t Au, as previously reported in the Company’s April 8, 2026 news release.
Subsequently, in early April 2026, Goldcliff completed a trenching program consisting of eight
hand-dug trenches (5.2 to 22 metres in length) designed to create continuous bedrock exposure
for mapping and sampling (see April 14, 2026 news release). Assay results from this program
remain pending.
Current Program: Increasing Data Density to Refine Drill Targets
Following compilation and review of prospecting, trail exposure, and trenching data, the Company
has identified significant areas within the North Cliff Zone that remain under-sampled.
The current program is designed to:
Substantially increase surface rock sample density
Improve correlation between gold-silver grades, lithology, and structural controls
Enhance geological understanding of mineralization continuity
This work is expected to support the refinement of priority drill targets and improve confidence
in drill hole planning.
Next Steps
Results from the ongoing sampling program, together with pending trench assay results, will be
integrated into the Company’s geological model to guide the next phase of exploration, including
drilling.
Annual General and Special Meeting
At the Company’s Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders held April 30, 2026, all
items were approved, specifically the re-election of Directors, the appointment of Auditors and the
Company’s 10% Rolling Stock Option Plan.
