Golden Ridge Resources Outlines Widespread Soil Anomaly
GOLDEN RIDGE RESOURCES OUTLINES WIDESPREAD SOIL ANOMALY
Kelowna, British Columbia – December 18, 2019 - Golden Ridge Resources Ltd. (“Golden Ridge” or the
“Company”) (TSXV: GLDN) is pleased to report positive soil geochemical results from the Main, Cliff, Goat
and ME Zones on its Ball Creek Property (“Ball Creek” or the “Property”), located in BC’s Golden Triangle
District. The results are highlighted by a Cu-Mo-Au-Ag-Pb-Zn anomaly which extends for approximately
5km in north-south distance and remains open on several sides.
Plan view maps of the soil results can be viewed at http://goldenridgeresources.com/projects/maps-
dec2019/
Highlights:
• 5 km long multi-element soil anomaly spanning the Main, Cliff, Goat and ME Zones.
• Results from the ME Zone define a roughly 1500m x 500m N-S trending area (open to the east) of
extremely anomalous Cu -Au-Ag-Mo with individual soils as high as 2 ,900ppm Cu, 3.21g/t Au,
36.5g/t Ag, and 760ppm Mo.
• Several new targets have been generated for ground truthing and drill testing during the 2020
exploration season.
ME Zone
A very high tenor anomaly was identified below treeline at the ME Zone, which has limited exposure and
therefore lacks previous investigation. The new anomaly is extremely encouraging with 11 soils >0.5g/t
Au up to 3.2g/t Au, 28 soils >5g/t Ag up to 36.5g/t Ag, 42 samples >500ppm Cu up to 2,900ppm Cu and 50
samples >50ppm Mo up to 760ppm Mo. Analysis of the results indicate both epithermal and porphyry
style geochemical signatures . Limited historic mapping identified Early Jurassic, Texas Creek Suite
intrusions, which host mineralization on other properties in the Golden Triangle including at KSM, Red
Mountain, Valley of the Kings, Premier, Spectrum and Snip1.
Next Steps
Outcrop exposure in the ME is limited by thick coastal underbrush. The Company plans to follow -up on
the new anomaly with several lines of IP , to define potential zones of mineralization below surface .
Additional sampling will also be carried out to extend the 2019 soil lines , which remain open. This work
will be conducted to support the Company’s objective of further diamond drilling in the 2020 field season.
Additional Results
Additional positive results from the 2019 regional geochemical program on other parts of the Property
are currently being compiled and will be released in the coming weeks.

QA/QC Procedures
All soil samples were dried and sieved to -180 micron (80 mesh) at ALS Global’s prep facility in Terrace,
BC. After preparation in Terrace, the prepared pulps were shipped to ALS Global’s analytical laboratory in
North Vancouver, BC. All soil assays are determined by AuME-TL43 method. A 25g aliquot of the prepared
pulp is cold digested with HNO3, then HCl is added and the sample is heated at 130˚C for 40 minutes.
Digestion is carried out in disposable plastic bottles to eliminate cross -contamination from digestion
vessels and heated via graphite block for even heating. The resulting solution is analyzed via ICP-MS and
ICP-AES and is corrected for inter element spectral interferences.
Any samples with an assay that reports gold concentrations equal to or higher than 1.0 g/t Au are analysed
by an overrange method (Au-AROR43). The analytical results are verified with the application of industry
standard Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QA-QC) procedures.
