CAUTIONARY STATEMENT:
The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold within
the United States
or to, or
for the benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) except in compliance with the registration
requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This release does
not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy of any of GoGold's securities in

.
This news release may contain "forward-looking information" as defined in applicable Canadian securities legislation. All statements
other than statements of historical fact, included in this release, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Parral tailings
project, the Los Ricos project, future operating margins, future production and processing, and future plans and objectives of
GoGold, constitute forward looking information that involve various risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking information is based on
a number of factors and assumptions which have been used to develop such information but which may prove to be incorrect,
including, but not limited to, assumptions in connection with the continuance of GoGold and its subsidiaries as a going concern,
general economic and market conditions, mineral prices, the accuracy of mineral resource estimates, and the performance of the

differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking information.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from GoGold's expectations include exploration and development
risks associated with the GoGold's projects, the failure to establish estimated mineral resources or mineral reserves, volatility of

Cautionary non-GAAP Measures and Additional GAAP Measures
Note that for purposes of this section, GAAP refers to IFRS. The Company believes that investors use certain non-GAAP and
additional GAAP measures as indicators to assess mining companies. They are intended to provide additional information and should
not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared with GAAP. Non-GAAP and additional GAAP
measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures
presented by other companies.
Additional GAAP measures that are presented on the face of the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income
include "Operating income (loss)". These measures are intended to provide an indication of the Company's mine and operating
performance. Per ounce measures are calculated by dividing the relevant mining and processing costs and total costs by the tonnes
of ore processed in the period. "Adjusted cash costs per ounce" and "Adjusted all-in sustaining costs per ounce" are used in this
analysis and are non-GAAP terms typically used by mining companies to assess the level of gross margin available to the Company
by subtracting these costs from the unit price realized during the period. These non-GAAP terms are also used to assess the ability
of a mining company to generate cash flow from operations. There may be some variation in the method of computation of these
metrics as determined by the Company compared with other mining companies. In this context, "Adjusted cash costs per ounce"
reflects the cash operating costs allocated from in-process and dore inventory associated with ounces of silver and gold sold in the
period. "Adjusted cash costs per ounce" may vary from one period to another due to operating efficiencies, grade of material
processed and silver/gold recovery rates in the period. "Adjusted all-in sustaining costs per ounce" include total cash costs,
exploration, corporate and administrative, share based compensation and sustaining capital costs. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP
and GAAP measures, please refer to the Management Discussion and Analysis dated
February 13, 2023
for the three months
ended
December 31, 2022
, as presented on SEDAR.
