DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
(GSRI:CSE)
VANCOUVER, June 9, 2022 /CNW/ - Golden Shield Resources Corp. (CSE: GSRI) (Frankfurt: 4LE0)
(“Golden Shield” or the “Company”) announced today that it has entered into an agreement with
Canaccord Genuity Corp. (the “Agent”), pursuant to which the Agent will act as agent for the Company on
a ‘best efforts’ agency basis in connection with a private placement of 10,909,090 units (the “Units”) of the
Company at a price of C$0.55 per Unit (the “Offering Price”) for gross proceeds to the Company of
C$6,000,000 (the “Offering”). Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (a
“Common Share”) and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole Common Share
purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common
Share (a “Warrant Share”) at a price of C$1.00 for a period of 24 months following the closing date of the
Offering.
The Warrants will be subject to an accelerated expiry date, which comes into effect if the trading price of
the Company’s common shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) close at or above C$1.10
per common share for any five days over any period of seven consecutive trading days. If that event occurs,
the Company will give an expiry acceleration notice (“Notice”) to Warrant holders and the expiry date of
the Warrants will be deemed to be 21 days from the date of the Notice.
The Company has agreed to grant the Agent an option (the “Over-Allotment Option”) to sell up to an
additional 1,636,364 Units at the Offering Price, exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time up to 48 hours
prior to the closing of the Offering to cover over-allotments, if any. If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised
in full, an additional approximately C$900,000 in gross proceeds will be raised pursuant to the Offering and
the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering will be approximately C$6,900,000.
The net proceeds from the Offering will be used to advance exploration, as well as for working capital and
general corporate purposes.
The Units will be offered for sale by way of private placement pursuant to applicable exemptions from the
prospectus requirements in all of the Provinces of Canada. The Agent will also be entitled to offer the Units
for sale in the United States pursuant to available exemptions from the registration requirements of the
United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and in those other jurisdictions outside of Canada and
the United States provided it is understood that no prospectus filing or comparable obligation arises in such
other jurisdiction.
The Offering is scheduled to close on or about June 28, 2022 and is subject to certain conditions including,
but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the CSE.
The Company announces that, in light of the announcement of the Offering, it will no longer proceed with
the non-brokered private placement announced on June 1, 2022.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the
United States, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation
2
or sale would be unlawful. The securities being offered have not been, nor will they be, registered under
the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) or under any U.S. state securities
laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption
from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, as amended, and applicable state securities laws.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This news release includes certain “Forward-Looking Statements” within the meaning of the United States
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and “forward-looking information” under applicable
Canadian securities laws. When used in this news release, the words “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”,
“expect”, “target”, “plan”, “forecast”, “may”, “would”, “could”, “schedule” and similar words or expressions,
identify forward-looking statements or information. These forward-looking statements or information relate
to, among other things: the intended use of proceeds from the Offering and the expected closing date of
the Offering.
Forward-looking statements and forward-looking information relating to any future mineral production,
liquidity, enhanced value and capital markets profile of Golden Shield, future growth potential for Golden
Shield and its business, and future exploration plans are based on management’s reasonable assumptions,
estimates, expectations, analyses and opinions, which are based on management’s experience and
perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, and other factors that management
believes are relevant and reasonable in the circumstances, but which may prove to be incorrect.
Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things, the price of silver, gold and other metals;
costs of exploration and development; the estimated costs of development of exploration projects; Golden
Shield’s ability to operate in a safe and effective manner and its ability to obtain financing on reasonable
terms.
These statements reflect Golden Shield’s respective current views with respect to future events and are
necessarily based upon a number of other assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable
by management, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, political and social
uncertainties and contingencies. Many factors, both known and unknown, could cause actual results,
performance or achievements to be materially different from the results, performance or achievements that
are or may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements or forward-looking information and
Golden Shield has made assumptions and estimates based on or related to many of these factors. Such
factors include, without limitation: the Company’s dependence on one mineral project; precious metals price
volatility; risks associated with the conduct of the Company’s mining activities in Mexico; regulatory, consent
or permitting delays; risks relating to reliance on the Company’s management team and outside contractors;
risks regarding mineral resources and reserves; the Company’s inability to obtain insurance to cover all
risks, on a commercially reasonable basis or at all; currency fluctuations; risks regarding the failure to
generate sufficient cash flow from operations; risks relating to project financing and equity issuances; risks
and unknowns inherent in all mining projects, including the inaccuracy of reserves and reso urces,
metallurgical recoveries and capital and operating costs of such projects; contests over title to properties,
particularly title to undeveloped properties; laws and regulations governing the environment, health and
safety; operating or technical difficulties in connection with mining or development activities; employee
relations, labour unrest or unavailability; the Company’s interactions with surrounding communities and
artisanal miners; the Company’s ability to successfully integrate acquired assets; the speculative nature of
exploration and development, including the risks of diminishing quantities or grades of reserves; stock
market volatility; conflicts of interest among certain directors and officers; lack of liquidity for shareholders
3
of the Company; litigation risk; and the factors identified under the caption “Risk Factors” in Golden Shield’s
management discussion and analysis. Readers are cautioned against attributing undue certainty to
forward-looking statements or forward-looking information. Although Golden Shield has attempted to
identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that
cause results not to be anticipated, estimated or intended. Golden Shield does not intend, and does not
assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements or forward-looking information to reflect
changes in assumptions or changes in circumstances or any other events affecting such statements or
information, other than as required by applicable law.
