GoldHaven Issues Letter to Shareholders
Vancouver, British Columbia – (Cision – May 27, 2022) – GoldHaven Resources Corp. (CSE:
GOH) (OTCQB: GHVNF) (FSE: 4QS) (“GoldHaven” or the “Company”) shares the following
letter to Shareholders from GoldHaven’s recently appointed CEO, Justin Canivet, CFA.
Dear GoldHaven Shareholders,
Good morning. It is my sincere pleasure to be writing this, my first letter to you. I feel somewhat
remiss for not having delivered my inaugural shareholder address a little sooner, but I am a
“details" guy, and paying close attention to the details takes time.
“Give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I will
spend the first four sharpening the axe.”
- Abraham Lincoln
I appreciate your patience these past few months, but please know that in the spirit of Mr. Lincoln‘s
wise words, I have been diligently sharpening the GoldHaven axe. And as your CEO, I would
like to emphasize five of my top strategic priorities:
Prudent Expense Management
I have tightened monthly burn to ensure that the Company’s cash position can facilitate as much
groundwork as possible.
Implementing a more “Laser-Focused” Strategy
I have refined work programs so that we allocate capital responsibly to the projects that have shown
the most promising early technical indicators.
Company-wide Risk Mitigation
I have taken the steps necessary to minimize risk exposure.
Being Opportunistic
All opportunities that are accretive to GOH shareholders will be considered.
Telling the GoldHaven Story
Over the years I have consulted with many public companies across several different sectors. What
I have found to be most effective as a corporate communication strategy is something I have
personally coined as my “3M” communication strategy. Messaging. Materials. Marketing. Then
wash, rinse, repeat as they say. We will be telling the GoldHaven story to everyone. Note that I
have also changed our wire distribution provider to Cision, so our news will reach ALL
terminals and news outlets going forward.

The fact of the matter is, external market forces beyond our control have created challenges. The
COVID-19 pandemic, global armed conflict, and rising inflation have all had a real economic
impact .Nobody is immune. The junior exploration sector has been under pressure. The price of
gold has fluctuated, rallying to over $2,000/ounce this past March, but is now hovering in the
$1,800-$1,900 range. While price fluctuations will continue, I am confident in a strong long-term
trend.
With a project portfolio spanning Northern Chile, British Columbia and Newfoundland,
GoldHaven holds claim to some of the most proliferous exploration ground in the western
hemisphere. The technical expertise we have is second to none. With proper decision making and
responsible allocation of capital, GoldHaven is well-positioned for success.
Smoke Mountain, British Columbia (Canada)
As you know, initial exploration at Smoke Mountain resulted in the identification of a 2.5-
kilometre-long Cu-Au-Zn mineralization trend (click here for news release).
Surge Copper’s Berg property adjoins Smoke Mountain to the south and contains multiple newly
discovered electromagnetic targets underscoring their view that this, “district hosts a large
porphyry cluster with significant exploration potential” (Surge Copper’s News Release, dated
April 12, 2022, click here).
Surge Copper’s CEO, Leif Nilsson has confidence that this district has significant untapped
exploration potential and could one day be considered as one of the largest copper districts in
Canada (click here).
I am thrilled to let you know that Phase II work at Smoke Mountain is scheduled to begin in the
coming days and will consist of approximately 30 days of field work. Results from surface
sampling are expected in August/September depending on lab turn around. Airborne LiDAR,
MAG, Radiometrics and Z-Tipper Axis Electromagnetic (ZTEM) surveying will also be
flown over the course of the summer all of which together will enhance our geological
understanding of the project, increase confidence in our existing targets and generate new ones.
Depending on what we see from this next campaign, we are presently considering further follow-
up fieldwork in the Fall of this year which could potentially yield results that would warrant
follow-up ground-based induced polarization surveying followed by prioritization for drill testing
targets in 2023.
I have also put the wheels in motion for beginning a dialogue with the local indigenous
communities in the area of Smoke Mountain as we recognize the importance of establishing a
respectful working relationship.
Pat’s Pond, Newfoundland (Canada)
We are also keen to continue exploration in Newfoundland. Pat’s Pond has shown promising
early results from Phase I surface sampling (rocks). Staying true to our laser focus, we have

chosen to move away from O’Neill as the early technical indicators there were not very
supportive. We will focus on Pat’s Pond going forward.
GoldHaven has also applied for the province’s JEA (Junior Exploration Assistance) program,
which will allow for $150,000 of additional exploration capital.
And at long last we have received the requisite exploration permitting for Pat’s Pond, and I am
presently negotiating a comprehensive Phase II follow-up campaign, which will include further
fieldwork (geology and prospecting), a soil geochemistry survey over the most prospective
portion of the property and an airborne magnetic survey over the entire property. These efforts
will help us to better define the true resource potential there.
Chile
The political situation in Chile remains a risk, and the cost of exploration is high - particularly for
junior explorers. I am carefully considering all factors in my evaluation of GoldHaven’s go-
forward strategy in Chile.
Measures have already been taken to mitigate risk exposure. GoldHaven’s Chile Advisory
Board remains intact, and Chris Benn - a well-known geochemist/geologist who has served as
Chief Geochemist for a number of majors in the region - has recently completed a follow-up
analysis on the additional sample material that was collected at our Alicia and Roma claims prior
to work being shut down there.
Chris’ analysis indicates that further trenching and surface sampling is required to have a
proper understanding of the economic geology at Alicia and Roma and to allow for a more
systematic ranking of the 12 high priority targets previously identified.
Given all of these factors, I have decided that our best approach in Chile right now is to take the
time to responsibly monitor the ongoing political situation and carefully evaluate all possible
strategic opportunities to ensure we extract the most value possible from our assets there. This
will take a bit of time, and as such, we will be reporting back to you in the coming months with a
more concrete decision regarding our go forward approach in Chile.
Unprecedented Times, Focused Measures
Thank you for your continued support and I very much look forward to reporting our progress
as we execute on our laser-focused strategy towards unlocking the highest resource potential
possible. I appreciate the importance of keeping shareholders informed and I am committed to
ensuring regular, timely communication with you as we move forward. Yes, markets have been
challenging in recent months, but we rise to the challenge. This is a rebuilding phase for
GoldHaven, and I am truly optimistic about our future.

About GoldHaven Resources Corp.
GoldHaven Resources Corp. is a Canadian junior precious metals exploration Company focused
on acquiring and exploring highly prospective land packages in both Canada and Chile.
GoldHaven maintains a strategic presence in the gold and silver rich Maricunga Gold Belt of
Northern Chile which is host to several mining and advanced exploration projects including
Salares Norte (Gold Fields), Esperanza (Kingsgate Consolidated), La Coipa (Kinross), Cerro
Maricunga (Fenix Gold), Lobo Marte (Kinross), Volcan (Volcan), Refugio (Kinross/Bema),
Caspiche (Goldcorp/Barrick), and Cerro Casale (Goldcorp/Barrick). The Company has identified
a total of 12 high-priority targets at it’s Alicia and Roma project areas in the Maricunga within a
prominent regional NW-SE structural trend along strike from Gold Field’s Salares Norte deposit
(5.2 million ounces of Gold1). These targets have been designated “High Priority” due to the extent,
pervasive alteration, favourable geology, highly animals rock geochemical results, and their
relative proximity to existing deposits. GoldHaven is also making exploration progress at its
Smoke Mountain property (Canada) which is strategically located in the Central British Columbia
Porphyry-Epithermal Belt in close proximity to Surge Copper’s Berg project, as well as its Pat’s
Pond and O’Neill claims in Newfoundland’s Central Newfoundland Gold Belt (Canada). Pat’s
Pond is strategically located in close proximity to Marathon Gold’s Valentine Lake gold project
and on strike from the Boomerang/Domino VMS deposit. Both project areas in Canada are highly
prospective for gold, copper, silver and zinc and all project areas have large scale discovery
potential.
