Golden Ridge Resources Acquires GOLD Project Near Bralorne
GOLDEN RIDGE RESOURCES ACQUIRES GOLD PROJECT NEAR BRALORNE
Kelowna, British Columbia – April 25, 2018 - Golden Ridge Resources Ltd. (“Golden Ridge” or the
“Company”) (TSXV: GLDN) is pleased to announce that it has signed an option agreement (the
“Agreement”) whereby Golden Ridge can acquire a 100% interest in the Royalle property (the “Royalle
Property”) located in British Columbia’s prolific Bralorne mining camp , by incurring cert ain exploration
expenditures and making cash and share payments over a four year period.
About the Royalle Property*
From 1928 to 1971, the Bralorne and nearby Pioneer and King mines produced a total of 4.15 million
ounces of gold from 7.9 million tons of ore, at an a verage head grade exceeding half-an-ounce per ton.
Previous drilling on the Royalle Property focused on the numerous bedrock gold showings exposed at high
elevations. Recent Aeromag, AeroTEM II and ZTEM heli -borne geophysical surveys have confirmed that
government geology maps correctly interpreted the Cadwallader Break, the regional-scale fault structure
responsible for gold mineralization at Bralorne, to be underlying Cadwallader Creek on the Royalle
Property (Figure 1). Drill holes have now been planned to target the interpreted 2nd and 3rd order fault
splays which branch off the Cadwallader Break, since it is these structures that host the high-grade gold-
quartz veins at Bralorne.
CEO Michael Blady comments that, “ The geological and stru ctural setting of the Royalle P roperty is
analogous to that of the nearby Bralorne ** and Pioneer Mines **. The rocks which lie along the
Cadwallader Break on the Royalle are similar to the serpentinites and Pioneer Greenstones hosting veins
at Bralorne. Most of the arsenic and gold anomalies on the property appear to be associated with the
contacts of serpentinites along t he Cadwallader Break . We believ e the Royalle P roperty has excellent
potential for the discovery of a large tonnage high-grade gold deposit. An aggressive diamond drilling
program is planned for the Fall/Winter of 2018 to test the targets outlined by our geological team, which
are hidden beneath the alluvial valley cover.”
The property is accessed via the all-season Lillooet-Pioneer road, making the property ideal for low-cost,
year-round drilling. Golden Ridge will immediately begin the permitting process for a Fall/Winter diamond
drilling program.
