On February 9, 2016, the Company announced a positive Preliminary Economic Assessment

(PEA) for the Ootsa Property with potential for low capital cost, low risk and rapid pay back

utilizing existing infrastructure in the district with a contract mining and toll milling scenario.

The study recommends that Gold Reach continue to advance the Ootsa Project with extended

and advanced technical studies with the intention of moving the p roject toward a production

decision.

The current technical report supporting the resource statement and PEA is available on SEDAR or the Company’s website at

www.goldreachresources.com and has an effective date of January 2016. The resource estimate uses $8.50 per tonne NSR cut -

off value. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and by definition do not demonstrate economic viability. There is no

certainty that all or any part of the mineral resource wi ll be converted into mineral reserves. A ‘Measured Mineral Resource’ is

that part of a mineral resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape and physical characteristics are so we ll

established that they can be estimated with confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and econo mic

parameters, to support production planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. An ‘Indicated Mineral

Resource’ is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape and physical characterist ics

can be estimated with a level of confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and economic paramet ers,

to support mine planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. Copper Equivalent (CuEq) calculations are

based on base case metal price (US$3/lb Cu, US$1260/oz Au, US$10.30/lb Mo, and US$17/oz Ag) and process recovery

assumptions, and take into account smelter payable rates and refining costs. M&I = measured and indicated.
