GOLDEN RIDGE RESOURCES DRILLS 7.42 METRES OF 4.94g/t Au and 48.44g/t Ag (468.31g/t AgEq) AT

THE HERITAGE PROJECT, NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR

Kelowna, British Columbia – February 10, 2021 - Golden Ridge Resources Ltd. (“Golden Ridge” or the

“Company”) (TSXV: GLDN) is pleased to announce results from holes HE-EZ-20-07 to HE-EZ-20-09 drilled

at the Eagle Zone, as part of the Company’s recently completed 5,182 meter diamond-drill program at the

Heritage epithermal Au-Ag project (“Heritage” or the “Property”), located along Highway 220, near Point

May, Newfoundland and Labrador. All three holes hit significant intersections of epithermal veining,

alteration, ginguro textures and Au-Ag mineralization. Notably, hole HE -EZ-20-07 is one of the deepest

holes drilled on the Property to date and was targeted to test the downdip intersection of the sub-

vertically dipping high-grade zone intersected in holes HE -EZ-20-04 and HE -EZ-20-06 (see news release

dated January 19 th, 2021). HE -EZ-20-07 successfully extended this zone at depth and intersected the

highest-grade interval of the campaign to date returning 7.42m of 4.94g/t Au and 48.44g/t Ag (468.31g/t

AgEq). The zone remains open at depth and along strike.

Highlights

- Ongoing drilling from the Eagle Zone continue to increase its dimensions which currently covers

at least 750m in strike length, 50m in width and 250m in depth, representing a large, robust and

open Au-Ag epithermal system.

- Hole HE-EZ-20-07, which intersected 7.42m of 4.94g/t Au and 48.44g/t Ag (468.31g/t AgEq) is

one of the deepest holes drilled on the Property to date and s trongly suggests that grades

increase with depth.

- Historical drilling within the northern part of the Eagle Zone focused on shallow depths (historic

drilling generally focused on depths of less than ~100m), and the down dip extension of the

high-grade zone encountered in HE-EZ-20-07 was further tested in holes HE-EZ-20-16 to HE-EZ-

20-21 (assays pending).

- Holes HE-EZ-20-08 and HE -EZ-20-09 continued to build on A u-Ag mineralization at depths of

~200m within the southern part of the Eagle Zone. Epithermal -style mineralization intersected

within the zone remains open at depth.

Only 1,914m of drilling have no w been assayed and reported from the recently completed 5,182m

program, representing only 37% of the total meterage drilled. Additional results to report include assays

for holes targeting the Turpin, Pinnacle and Lunch Spot Zone’s situated along a 2.5km magnetic anomaly,

as well as additional holes at the Eagle Zone.

“We are extremely pleased that all drill hole results to date from the Eagle Zone have intersected

significant intervals of strong epithermal-style veining, alteration with gold and silver-rich mineralization.

While previous operators focused on relatively shallow depths, hole HE-EZ-20-07 which intersected 7.42m

of 4.94g/t Au and 48.44g/t Ag (468.31g/t AgEq) and was designed to test the down -dip extension of a

zone previously discovered by the Company , has shown us that the Eagle Zone is much bigger than we

originally thought, and it continues to grow with ongoing results. We also are eagerly awaiting results

from the project’s Turpin, Pinnacle and Lunch Spot Zone’s which lie 800 meters to the east of the Eagle

Zone, where epithermal style mineralized bodies extend along a 2.5km parallel magnetic anomaly.” stated

Golden Ridge CEO, Michael Blady.

1 Gold (AuEq) and silver (AgEQ) equivalent grades are calculated using 100-day moving -average metal prices of gold at

US$1,888/oz. and silver at US$25.08/oz. Gold equivalent grade is calculated as AuEq (g/t) = Au (g/t) + Ag (g/t) * 0.0133. Silver

equivalent grade is calculated at AgEq (g/t) = Ag (g/t) + Au (g/t) / 0.0133. The factors for gold (0.0133) and silver (0.0133) will

change depending on the metal price . The metal price numbers listed above were used to determine the conversion factors

presented herein. Metal recoveries have not been applied in the gold-equivalent calculation.

2 The intervals reported in these tables represent drill intercepts and insufficient data are available at this time to state t he

true thickness of the mineralized intervals. All gold values are uncut.
