Drill hole QGQ26-29 was collared at the same drill padas QGQ24-25 and was aligned to 170°/-72° dip to target internallymodelled data adjacent the strike of the greenstone contact verticallybelow the Company’s earlier drilling. QGQ26-29 was drilled to adepth of about 660m (2,166 ft) and successfully intercepted numerousinternally modelled zones and may have identified a new mineralizedzone near the end of hole, about 600m (1,969 ft) vertically below theinitial Discovery trench and QGQ24-17 collar. The end of QGQ26-29 isdescribed as andesitic tuff with moderatesericite-silica alteration. Quartz-carbonate veinlets compriseapproximately 3–5%, locally increasing to 10–12% and overallapproximately 2% disseminated and replacement pyrite. Logging andsampling is in progress with assays from the topof hole currently pending. Maps are available at https://goldencariboo.com/news/ Assay results for drill hole QGQ25-28, collared about80m north of QGQ26-29, are nearly completed in full and expected to bein hand within the week. Results will be released when they comeavailable. The Company’s Mineral Resource Estimate is inprogress with validation of all databases in progress along withadditional technical studies. The latest drill hole is planned to beincluded in the MRE along in addition to the Company’s 28 other NQsized drill holes. The Company’s 29 drill holes are intended to beincluded in the Resource, along with up to ninehistorical drill holes from the Property. Golden Cariboo’s President and CEO, J. FrankCallaghan, exclaims “We are very pleased withthe early indications from drill hole QGQ26‑29. The successfulinterception of multiple target zones and the emergence of a possiblenew mineralized horizon half a kilometer deep highlights the momentumbuilding across the Project. With additional assays expected shortlyand our Mineral Resource Estimate progressing well, Golden Cariboo issteadily advancing toward a clearer picture of the Property’s longterm potential.” The technical information in this news release has beenreviewed and approved by David Mark, an independent consultantcommissioned by the Company.

About Golden Cariboo ResourcesLtd Golden Cariboo Resources Ltd. is rediscovering theCariboo Gold Rush by proceeding with highly targeted drilling andtrenching programs on its Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine property which isbordered by Osisko Development (NSE:ODV/TSXV:ODV), partly intertwinedwith them at the north end of the Cariboo Gold Project, and locatedalong a favourable corridor adjacent to the Spanish and Eureka thrust Click Image To View Full Size faults over a 94,899 hectare (234,501 acre) area.Historically, over 101 placer gold creeks on the 90-kilometer (56mile) trend, from the Cariboo Hudson mine north to the Quesnelle GoldQuartz Mine property, have recorded production with successful placermining continuing to this day. Golden Cariboo’s Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine propertyis 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) northeast of, and road accessible from,Hixon in central British Columbia. The Property includes the QuesnelleQuartz goldsilver deposit, which was discovered in 1865 and developedover a footprint of about 150m x 150m (< 6 acres) at the Main zonestraddling Hixon Creek. Overall, the geological setting of the goldmineralization at the Company’s Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine propertyshows strong similarities with the Spanish Mountain gold deposit,situated 120 km (75 miles) towards the southeast along the samegeological trend. As a sediment-hosted vein (SHV) deposit, the SpanishMountain deposit is considered to belong to the epizonal orogenicsubclass of gold deposits which include some of the world’s largestdeposits such as Muruntau, Uzbekistan and Bendigo, Australia.
