Golden Birch Resources Provides Corporate Update
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR DISSEMINATION INTO THE UNITED STATES OR THROUGH U.S.
NEWSWIRE SERVICES
Timmins, Ontario (May 18, 2021) - Golden Birch Resources Inc. (GBRX: CSE) (“Golden Birch” or the “Company”) is
pleased to announce changes to its board of directors and management and to announce exploration updates to its
drill program at the Omu prospect, Keveri Project, in Papua New Guinea.
Board and Management Updates:
The Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) is pleased to announce that David Drinkwater has rejoined the
Board as a director and as Chair of the Board and welcomes Steve Balch to the Board as a new director. David has
held a number of senior executive roles in different Canadian businesses, several board positions with public
companies and he was a partner in a leading law firm. Steve brings extensive technical and corporate experience
from over 35 years in the mineral exploration industry, in both Canada and abroad. His background as a geophysicist,
developer of innovative mineral exploration technology and co-founder, director and senior manager of publicly
listed companies will contribute to the Board’s breadth and depth of skills.
Iain Martin will assume the role of interim CEO and President replacing Alan Martin, who has resigned as a director
and officer of the Company to pursue his interest in incubating early-stage exploration ventures. Alan was the
founder of Golden Birch and was instrumental in advancing its exploration program. The Board would like to thank
Alan for his contributions as director, CEO and President and wishes him all the best in his future endeavours.
Exploration Highlights:
The Company’s drill program in PNG has been interrupted by COVID-19 related factors. However, the
Company has received the assay results on its first hole, Hole OMU21DD001, which was completed on
February 12, 2021 to a depth of 217.1 metres (“m”).
This first drill hole provided valuable information about the mineralized system present at Omu and
enables the Company to more fully understand and plan future drill holes.
The hole yielded 10m of 0.1% Copper (“Cu”) at 36m, 4m of 0.11% Cu at 84m, and 4m of 0.2% Cu at
212.1m.
Variable copper mineralization from 38m to 217m downhole is associated with strong epidote
alteration and fracturing evidence of hydrothermal alteration.
The Company believes that Hole OMU21DD001 intersected the outer parts of a mineralized system
which is structurally controlled. The weak copper mineralization in Hole OMU21DD001 represents the
up-dip portion of the IP Main Target anomaly.
The Company is working towards completing 3,000m of drilling to earn a 51% interest in the Keveri
Exploration License, with the objective of then completing a further 10,000m to earn an 85% interest
in Exploration License.
Due to COVID-19, exploration activities for the Keveri Project have been paused and will resume when
the situation presents a lower risk for workers and local landowners associated with the project.
Golden Birch maintains a minimal crew at the Waki Camp.

Figure 1. Location of Hole OMU21DD001 and the proposed position of hole 2 (OMU002) at Dino’s pad. Hole 2 will target the
Omu Main IP chargeability anomaly. Additional drill holes (3,4,5,6 and 7) are proposed to test the southeast part of Omu
prospect, towards a new area called Omu SE. Omu SE is believed to be the location of the source intrusion(s) responsible for
the mineralization at Omu Main. An eighth drill hole is proposed to test the Omu northeast target, which has anomalous copper
in both outcrop and soils and a strong IP anomaly.
Please note that a more detailed report of the exploration results is available on the Golden Birch website.
Mr. Ian Taylor, MAusIMM(CP), a consultant to the Company and a Qualified Person as defined by National
