Golden Spike Issues Shares Under Gregory River Property Option Agreement

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 20, 2022 / Golden Spike Resources Corp. (CSE:GLDS) ("Golden Spike" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that, further to its news release issued on July 21, 2022, as a result of its acquisition (the "Acquisition") of Golden Horizon Exploration Corp. ("Golden Horizon"), it has assumed Golden Horizon's interest in a mineral property option agreement dated October 14, 2021, as amended (the "Option Agreement") between Golden Horizon as optionee (the "Optionee") and certain optionors of the Property (collectively, the "Optionors"). Pursuant to the Option Agreement, the Optionors have granted the Optionee the option to acquire a 100% interest (the "Option") in the mineral property claims known as the Gregory River Property located in Newfoundland & Labrador (the "Property"), subject to a 2% net smelter royalty.

Pursuant to the Option Agreement, in order to exercise the Option, the Optionee must:

  1. make a cash payment of $20,000 on the signing of the Option Agreement, which payment was made by Golden Horizon prior to completion of the Acquisition;
  2. incur $75,000 of certain expenditures on the Property on or before January 1, 2022, which expenditures were incurred by Golden Horizon prior to completion of the Acquisition;
  3. issue 1,000,000 common shares (the "Initial Consideration Shares") on or before the earlier of: (i) the listing of the Optionee's common shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "Listing Date"), and (ii) December 31, 2022;
  4. make a further cash payment of $45,000 and issue an additional 1,500,000 common shares (the "Subsequent Consideration Shares") on or before: (i) the first anniversary of the Listing Date; and (ii) June 30, 2023; and
  5. incur an additional $200,000 of certain expenditures on the Property on or before December 31, 2022.

(All figures are in Canadian dollars)

As a result of the Acquisition, the board of directors of the Company have determined the Listing Date to be the closing date of the Acquisition and as such, the Company has issued the Initial Consideration Shares to the Optionors in accordance with, and in the proportions set forth in, the Option Agreement. The Initial Consideration Shares were issued at a deemed price of $0.20 per Initial Consideration Share, being the closing price of the Company's common shares on September 19, 2022.

The Initial Consideration Shares are, and the Subsequent Consideration Shares will be, subject to a 4-month statutory resale restriction in accordance with applicable securities laws. Additionally, 875,000 of the Initial Consideration Shares are subject to a contractual restriction on transfer, with 125,000 of the Initial Consideration Shares being released from the restriction on transfer on each of the 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 and 21-month anniversaries of the Listing Date.

The Property is subject to a 2% net smelter returns royalty interest (the "NSR") of the Optionors calculated in accordance with the Option Agreement. At any time following the completion of the Option exercise, the Company will have the right to purchase one-half of the NSR from the Optionors for $1,500,000, leaving the Optionors with a 1% NSR. A copy of the Option Agreement is available on www.sedar.com under the Company's profile.

"We are very pleased to have completed the Acquisition of Golden Horizon resulting in an option to purchase a 100% interest in its Gregory River Property located in a very prospective mineral belt in Newfoundland" stated Golden Spike CEO Keith Anderson.

Gregory River Property

The Property is comprised of 124 claims under 15 mineral licences, covering 3,100 hectares or 7,660 acres and is located on the western portion of the island of Newfoundland, approximately 14 Kilometres ("km") south of the community of Trout River and 40 km northwest of Corner Brook. The Property is situated within the Bay of Islands Ophiolite Complex of rocks, comprised of a sequence of faulted and moderately deformed ultramafic to mafic intrusive rocks, sheeted diabase dikes, basaltic pillow lavas, and narrow zones of sedimentary rocks.

Historical work on the Property dates back to the 1920's and has identified numerous high priority gold and base metal targets and untested anomalies within the claim package that can be intermittently traced within the Property for approximately 12 km along a north-northeast trend. Based on the historical work, the Property has the potential to host multiple known deposit types and styles of mineralization, including: 1. Copper-gold-zinc mineralized, Cyprus-style - volcanogenic massive sulfides or VMS, 2. Stratigraphic gold-rich exhalative zones, 3. Structurally-controlled, copper and gold mineralized quartz lode veins, and 4. Low-sulphidation epithermal gold mineralization.

The VMS style of mineralization and geological setting identified at the Property is highly analogous, and along a north-northwest trend to the York Harbor Metals Inc. copper and zinc-rich VMS mineralization that occurs approximately 37 km to the south, within the southern portion of Bay of Islands Ophiolite Complex of rocks.

The Company is currently reviewing and compiling all of the historical data from the Property and once complete will initiate a first phase exploration program, starting this fall. Full details regarding the program will be provided upon completion of the compilation and receipt of exploration permits.
