Golden Dawn Reports Preliminary Metallurgical Results From May Mac Mine & Receives $1M USD From RIVI Capital LLC - Seite 3

Note: the potential quantity and grade of the above exploration targets for the Lexington, Golden Crown and May Mac deposits are conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to define mineral resources, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in these targets being delineated as mineral resources.

A combined resource total of 500,000 oz gold equivalent therefore seems to be a reasonable goal based on these exploration targets and a reasonable measure of exploration success.

The current N.I. 43-101 resource estimates and PEA for the Lexington, Golden Crown Mines and a N.I. 43-101 report for the May Mac Mine, can be found on SEDAR or the company's website. www.goldendawnminerals.com

A modest exploration program for the recently acquired KRR Property will be also conducted to delineate priority targets among the 29 historic mines and 40 significant showings (all historic mines are within a 15 km radius of the Greenwood Mill) on the 11,000 hectare land package that lies contiguous to the company's Greenwood Mill. This program is designed to utilize state-of-the-art geophysical techniques to test two inferred source intrusive areas on the KRR Land package and discover additional mill feed from the historic mines for the Greenwood Mill.
