Golden Reign Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: GRR) (the “Company” or “Golden Reign”) is pleased to announce that

it has received its environmental permit for the DEVELOPMENT, CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION of up

in the last 13 years. The Company will be the third gold producer within the country and o ur high grade, San

Albino Gold Project will be the first newly permitted commercial gold processing operation in the country within

years.

“Receiving this permit not only shows the quality and commitment of the GRR team in Nicaragua but

also the commitment of the Nicaraguan Government to the mining industry in the country. The issuance

of the environmental permit for the San Albino Gold Deposit marks a major milestone for the Company.

It is the culmination of extensive work by the Golden Reign team along with our consulting engineers,

in collaboration with Nicaraguan governmental agencies and interested parties. We are particularly

pleased to report that our project proposal met with overwhelming public support from our local

communities in Nueva Segovia.” stated Kevin Bullock, Golden Reign’s CEO

On August 25, 2017, the Company held its Public Consultation Meeting, a key step in the EIA permitting process.

The meeting was attended by representatives from the Ministry of the Environment and Natural Resources

(MARENA), the Ministry of Energy and Mines ( MEM), the National Forestry Institute (INAFOR), a number of

other ministries and variety of businesses, municipal authorities, a non-governmental organization, local judicial

and political party representatives, as well as members of the public. Of the over 700 people in attendance , 551

registered participants represented 17 different communities and the local municipality of El Jicaro. The Company

delivered an in -depth 3 -hour presentation on the San Albino Gold Project, explaining the proposed mining

operations, as well as its potential economic and social impact. The meeting also provided a forum for questions

and responses. The Public Consultation Meeting went extremely well, with the project receiving the support of

all parties present.

Golden Reign’s next step is to finalize an EPCM contract and, in due course, commence detailed engineering and

construction of a high grade, high margin gold mine at San Albino . The Company’s P reliminary Economic

Assessment, carried out in 2014 to early 2015, shows robust economics for a high margin gold mine with an open-

pit grade of over 7 g/t gold equivalent (AuEq) and a stripping ratio of 5.2:1 (please see news release #15-1, dated

March 16, 2015).

Concurrent with the permitting process, Golden Reign has continued to advance exploration at Las Conchitas. An

update, including initial trenching results, will be released once received. Las Conchitas is located immediately

south of our high-grade San Albino Gold Deposit which contains Indicated Resources of 95,000 ounces AuEq at

8.47 g/t and Inferred Resources of 805,000 ounces AuEq at 7.43 g/t (see news release dated January 7, 2013), and

is situated near the southern end of the Corona de Oro Gold Belt, a 3 kilometre wide by 20 kilometre long corridor

bearing hundreds of historical mines and workings.
