GoldHaven Completes Phase I at Rio Loa and Prepares for Phase II

Vancouver, British Columbia, April 26th, 2021 – GoldHaven Resou rces Corp. ("GoldHaven" or

the "Company") (CSE: GOH) (OTCQB: GHVNF) (FRA: 4QS) is pleased to a nnounce the re-

sults of the recently completed Phase 1, 5-hole (1,793 meters) reverse circulation (“RC”) drill

program at Rio Loa that was designed to test a series of geochemically (lead-arsenic) and geophys-

ically (magnetics and IP) defined high sulphidation epithermal gold targets associated with a broad

zone of steam heated alteration (silica-clay). Although none of the RC holes reached their planned

depths due to the presence of clay-rich ground water, higher te mperature alteration minerals and

anomalous pathfinder geochemical elements (arsenic, bismuth, co pper molybdenum) consistent

with the highest levels of epithermal gold deposits were identified at depth.

The pathfinder elements and high temperature alteration increase the Company’s confidence in the

target area and support follow up diamond drilling at Rio Loa. Holes RCRL-004 and 005 were

terminated in anomalous pathfinder elements and represent attractive Phase 2 follow up diamond

drill targets.

Rio Loa is located 25 km south of Gold Field’s Salares Norte deposit (5.2 million ounces equiv-

alent of Gold scheduled to produce 450,000oz of Gold per annum 1,2) and 6 km south of Gold

Field’s Horizonte discovery.

Daniel Schieber GoldHaven's CEO comments: “The Phase I RC drilling program at Rio Loa iden-

tified favourable alteration and pathfinder element ge ochemistry that will allow the company to

vector toward gold mineralization in the upcoming Phase 2 diamond drilling campaign.” .

“GoldHaven's team is committed to exploring its highly prospective 251 square km land package

in the Maricunga. After closing an above market priced financing in March, GOH is well financed

for Phase 2 and will be busy during the summer working on preparing Coya and Roma for drill-

ing.”

Drill Program Description

RC drilling at Rio Loa was conducted in February and March, 2021 and was focused within a clay-

silica hydrothermal alteration footprint measuring at least 3.25 by 1.25 kilometers which is inter-

preted to represent a steam heated alteration zone that may be related to epithermal gold mineral-

ization at depth (Figure 1). All 5 holes in the Phase 1 program intersected significant intervals of

silicification and argillic alteration which remain open at depth.

Quality Control, Quality Assurance and Core Handling Protocols

RC cuttings are sampled over two metre intervals on the drill p latform by quartering the entire

sample in a riffle splitter. One sample was sent to the laborat ory, the other w retained as a du-

plicate. Control samples (accredi ted standards and blanks) are inserted into the sample intervals

regularly prior to despatch to an ISO 9001:2008 certified labor atory in Chile. Samples are dried

(if necessary), weighed, crushed (80% <2mm) and 400-600 g riffle split out and pulverized to 95%

< 106µm. The remainder is retained (coarse reject). Pulps are analyzed for Au by fire assay (40g)

with ICP AES finish, for Ag by four acid digest with AAS and fo r 32 multielement by four acid

ICP-AES.

Path Forward

In addition to Rio Loa and Alicia, GoldHaven controls five other high priority assets which will

continue to be tested, drilled and advanced. As a result, these ongoing exploration efforts will

keep the Company busy during 2021. The Company is advancing its Apolo Project’s Roma and

Alicia properties as well as its Coya assets and preparing them for drill testing. These targets have

been designated as high-priority based on extensive and pervasive alteration, favourable geology,

highly anomalous rock geochemistry results, and their relative proximity to existing deposits.

including Salares Norte (Goldfie lds), Esperanza (Kingsgate Cons olidated), La Coipa (Kinross),

Cerro Maricunga (Fenix Gold), Lobo Marte (Kinross), Volcan (Volcan), Refugio (Kinross/Bema),

Caspiche (Goldcorp/Barrick), Cerro Casale (Goldcorp/Barrick). The Company has agreements in

place to acquire seven high priority exploration targets as identified by geological studies. To date,

Goldhaven has identified “High Priority” targets on four of the seven exploration properties and,

will commence a drilling program during the first quarter of 2021. The four priority targets include

Coya, located approximately 16 km northeast of the Kinross La C oipa mine; the second is Rio

Loa, a project located 25 km south of Gold Field’s Salares Nort e deposit (5.2 million ounces of

Gold equivalent1; the third and fourth projects are Alicia and Roma which are a pproximately 35

km. south of the Salares Norte deposit. These exploration targets have been designated High Pri-

ority due to extensive, pervasive alteration, favourable geology, highly anomalous rock geochem-

ical results, and their relative proximity to existing deposits.
