Drill Results

NEWS RELEASE

Golden Tag Drills 1,095 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.6 m and 541 g/t Ag.Eq over

1.7 m at San Diego

Toronto, Ontario, March 23, 2022: Golden Tag Resources Ltd. (“Golden Tag ” or the " Company")

(TSX.V: GOG) (OTCQB: GTAGF) is pleased to announce complete results from diamond drillhole s

21-62 and 22-63, part of the ongoing exploration program at the Company’s 100% owned San Diego

Project, located in Durango Mexico.

Key highlights from holes 21-62 & 22-63 include:

• High-grade intersection of 1,095 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.6 metres (“m”) within the CSplay

Zone, located ~ 75 m SW and 75 m vertically below similar results as published on

February 15, 2022. The CSplay Zone has a minimum vertical strike length of 300 m

and follow up drilling is being planned.

• 541 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.66 m, within a broader interval of 166 g/t Ag.Eq over 10.15 m,

in the Canta Zone.

• Several other high-grade intersections, located close to surface, including 244 g/t

Ag.Eq over 1.75 m, 182 g/t Ag.Eq over 2.00 m, 504 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.20 m, and 295 g/t

Ag.Eq over 2.10 m.

Greg McKenzie, President and CEO commented: "The two holes reported today showcase how the

San Diego Project can deliver exceptionally high- grade mineralization, relatively close to surface.

During Q1/22 we have now reported a total of four high- grade intersections each in excess of 1,000

g/t Ag.Eq, from within the CSplay Zone which has a known vertical strike of length of 300 m. We are

also pleased with the additional high-grade results within the Montanez and the 57 Target area.”

Hole 21-62 & 22-63

Holes 21-62 and 22- 63 were drilled at a shallow dip (- 45 degrees) to test an area north of the 57

Target, a series of epithermal breccias and quartz-carbonate vein mineralization which returned 72 g/t

Ag.Eq over 273. 7 m, including 861 g/t Ag.Eq over 10.0 m, as previously reported in news releases

dated September 8 and May 27, 2021 discussing hole 21-57 (see Figure 1)(1). Mineralization within

the 57 Target is a complex interplay of several vein trends proximal to the southern contact of the

Central Diorite, notably late -stage northeast trending epithermal veins intersecting with the west-

northwest trending San Jose Zone system of quartz-sulfide veins with associated albite alteration. The

Company is currently following up with detail surface mapping to better understand the geometry of

the 57 Target mineralization.

The San Jose Zone was intersected at the top of both holes with hole 21-62 returning 244 g/t Ag.Eq

over 1.75 m (13.95 to 15.70 m) and hole 22-63 returning 178 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.75 m (15.00 to 15.75

m). Several northeast trending epithermal quartz-carbonate-sulfide veins were intersected within the

Central Diorite in both holes. The most notable of these intersections was within Zone 57 NE B which

returned 504 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.20 m (162.50 to 163.70 m) in hole 21-62 and 295 g/t Ag.Eq over 2.10

m (213.40 to 215.50 m) in hole 22- 63. Zone 57 NE A returned 182 g/t Ag.Eq over 2.0 m (114.50 to

116.50 m) in hole 21-62 and 158 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.70 m (142.50 to 143.20 m) in hole 22- 63. Zone 57

NE A can be traced over a minimum strike length of approximately 50 m and Zone 57 NE B can be

traced over a minimum strike length of approximately 75 m and is expected to merge into the 57

Target.

Hole 22-63 was extended to cut across the Montanez, Canta and CSplay Zones. The Montanez Zone

appears to split into several veins at its western extent within the Central Diorite, with the best

intersection within the zone returning 491 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.5 m (295.00 to 295.50 m). Further

downhole, several mineralized veins within the east -west trending Canta Zone coalesced into an

intersection which returned 541 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.66 m (358.34 to 360.00 m) within a broader interval

of 166 g/t Ag.Eq over 10.15 m (352.70 to 362.85 m) (see Figure 2). This intersection is located

approximately 100 m west of the Canta intersections from holes 21-61A & 61W1, which included 388

g/t Ag.Eq over 2.1 m , as previously reported on February 15, 2022. The Canta Zone can be traced

over a minimum strike length of 375 m on property.

The northeast trending CSplay Zone was cut deeper downhole in hole 22-63 returning 1095 g/t

Ag.Eq over 0.57 m (392.33 to 392.90 m). This CSplay intersection is located approximately 75 m

southwest and 75 vertical m below the high-grade results within holes 21-61 & 61A including

1,064 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.5 m, 1,004 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.22 m and 1,110 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.65 m , as

previously reported on February 15, 2022. The CSplay Zone can be traced over a strike length

of 300 m on the property.

(1) All results in this release are rounded. Assays are uncut and undiluted. Widths are core-lengths, not true widths as

a full interpretation of actual orientation of mineralization is not complete. Intervals of vein mineralization were chosen

based on a 110 g/t Ag.Eq cutoff. Silver equivalent: Ag.Eq g/t was calculated using 3-year trailing average commodity

prices of $ 20.60/oz Ag, $0.90/lb Pb, $1.20/lb Zn, $1 650/oz Au, and $ 3.25/lb Cu. The calculations assume 100%

metallurgical recovery and are indicative of gross in-situ metal value, the Company is planning to perform additional

metallurgical studies later in 2022 . The 57 Target drill intercepts from hole 21-57, which were released in 2021, were

calculated using the current silver equivalent parameters outlined above.

Sample Analysis and QA/QC Program

Golden Tag Resources uses a quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program that monitors the

chain of custody of samples and includes the insertion of blanks, duplicates, and reference standards

in each batch of samples sent for analysis. Drill core is photographed, logged, and cut in half with one

half retained in a secured location for verification purposes and one half shipped for analysis. Sample

preparation (crushing and pulverizing) is performed at ALS Geochemistry, an independent ISO

9001:2001 certified laboratory, in Zacatecas, Mexico and pulps are sent to ALS Geochemistry in

Vancouver, Canada for analyses. The entire sample is crushed to 70% passing -2 mm and a riffle split

of 250 grams is taken and pulverized to better than 85% passing 75 microns. Samples are analyzed

for gold using a standard fire assay with Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) (Au-AA23) from a 30-

gram pulp. Gold assays greater than 10 g/t are re- analyzed on a 30- gram pulp by fire assay with a

gravimetric finish (Au- GRA21). Samples are also analyzed using a 35 element inductively coupled

plasma (ICP) method with atomic emission spectroscopy (AES) on a pulp digested by aqua regia (ME-

ICP41). Overlimit sample values for silver (>100 g/t), lead (>1%), zinc (>1%), and copper (>1%) are

re-assayed using a four-acid digestion overlimit method with ICP -AES (ME-OG62). For silver values

greater than 1,500 g/t samples are re-assayed using a fire assay with gravimetric finish on a 30-gram

pulp (Ag-GRA21). No QA/QC issues were noted with the results reported herein.

True widths of drill intercepts have not been determined. Assays are uncut except where indicated.
