Geophysical Results Show Multiple Anomalies at

Korongou

Fourteen coincident chargeability high and resistivity high IP geophysical anomalies have been identified within the Guitorga gold anomaly at the Banouassi prospect, Korongou.

The anomalies may be related to areas of disseminated sulphides (chargeability highs) and silicification (resistivity highs) which are frequently associated with gold mineralisation.

The geophysical anomalies and previously identified auger gold geochemical anomalies at

Guitorga are now the priority targets for the current RC drilling program.

A magnetic low anomaly and significant conductive anomaly are also associated with the

Guitorga gold anomaly and are thought to be related to hydrothermal alteration and shearing.

More than 22 additional priority anomalies, that are both chargeable and resistive, have been identified throughout the Korongou permit providing excellent new gold targets for Golden Rim's on-going exploration.

At the Kogli prospect, a strong, 2.1km long, coincident chargeability and resistivity anomaly was identified. A single previous drill hole (NKRC005) returned 4m at 9.2 g/t gold, including

1m at 31.5 g/t gold.

Golden Rim Resources Ltd (Golden Rim; ASX: GMR) today announced it had received the processed results, including a final report, for the electric and magnetic ground geophysical surveys carried out by SAGAX Afrique S.A. (SAGAX) at the Korongou Project in Burkina Faso.

The work conducted by SAGAX included a 428.8km Gradient Array Induced Polarisation (IP)
survey; a 431.3km ground magnetic survey; and two, 5km long, dipole-dipole IP test lines.

Gradient Array IP Survey

The Gradient Array IP survey was conducted on 100m spaced lines, with recordings every 25m along the lines. With positive initial results the survey was extended from 284km to 428.8km and covered the entire 16km strike length of the gold-bearing central shear zone at Korongou.
The survey identified two main chargeability high zones located in the NE and the SW of the survey area (Figure 1). SAGEX interpreted a total of 533 chargeability anomaly axes, or lineaments, and compiled an interpretation map which highlights the structural framework of the shear zone.
The NE chargeability zone corresponds with the Banouassi prospect. A number of parallel, NE- trending, chargeability high anomalies were identified within the 3.5km extent of the Guitorga gold

anomaly and a strong 700m long, E-W trending chargeability high anomaly was identified to the east of the MCA pit and this anomaly extends into the Guitorga gold anomaly.
The resistivity data also shows a series of anomalies with a general NE trend. Areas where chargeability high and resistivity high anomalies coincide are regarded as excellent targets for gold mineralisation (Figure 2).
At least 14 chargeable and resistive anomalies are associated with the Guitorga gold anomaly. Gold mineralisation is frequently associated with disseminated sulphides (i.e. pyritisation that increases chargeability) and silicification (increase of the resistivity by the reduction of the porosity of the rock) and as such these coincident geophysical anomalies are priority targets for the RC drilling program currently underway at Korongou.
More than 22 additional priority anomalies, that are both chargeable and resistive, have been identified throughout the Korongou permit providing excellent new gold targets for Golden Rim's on-going exploration.
At the Kogli prospect, which lies 5.5km SW of the Banouassi prospect, a strong, 2.1km long coincident chargeability and resistivity anomaly was identified. A single previous RC drill hole (NKRC005) returned 4m at 9.2 g/t gold (40m - 44m), including 1m at 31.5 g/t gold.
The gold mineralisation in NKRC005 is associated with disseminated sulphides and silicification within sheared mafic volcanics. Auger drilling has been completed over a limited portion of the geophysical anomaly. This auger drilling returned a peak value of 212 ppb gold.
To the SW of the Kogli prospect no auger drilling has been conducted by Golden Rim to date. A systematic auger drilling program to follow-up the significant geophysical anomalies in this area is planned.
The general resistivity distribution pattern at Korongou shows alternating resistive and conducting horizons trending in a N600 direction. There is a major conductive corridor that trends at N600 across the entire survey area and it appears to be associated with the Guitorga gold anomaly in the eastern portion of the grid (Figure 3). Conductive trends are frequently related to deeper clay profiles associated with substantial faults or shear zones.

Ground Magnetic Survey

The ground magnetic survey covered 431.3km and was also conducted on 100m spaced lines, with continuous recordings along the lines.
Two main trends were observed in the magnetic data: ~N600, like the majority of the chargeable and resistive trends, and N900 to N1200. The distribution pattern of the magnetic anomalies suggests the presence of several sinistral deformation corridors or shear zones at Korongou.
A coincident magnetic low anomaly was identified with the Guitorga gold anomaly and this anomaly may be related to magnetite destruction in the rocks due to hydrothermal alteration associated with gold mineralisation (Figure 4).

Dipole-Dipole IP Survey

Two, 5km long, IP test lines (5600E and 6500E) were surveyed with the dipole-dipole array across the Guitorga gold anomaly. The primary use of the dipole-dipole survey is to evaluate the depth continuity of chargeability (and resistivity) anomalies.

Page | 2 32854_2


The survey showed that a number of the IP anomalies within the Guitorga gold anomaly do have strong extensions at depth (minimum of 200m) suggesting the possible continuity of the gold mineralisation at depth (Figure 5).
SAGEX recommended a number of follow-up dipole-dipole IP lines which are being considered by
Golden Rim.
Golden Rim's Managing Director, Craig Mackay, said "The new geophysical results provide useful additional information that will assist Golden Rim with its targeting for the current and future drilling programs at Korongou."

"The coincident IP chargeability and resistivity anomalies within the Guitorga auger gold anomaly are encouraging and suggest there may be coherent zones of sulphides and/or silicification in the bedrock beneath the gold anomaly which may host significant gold mineralisation. Drilling of these geophysical and geochemical anomalies is currently underway."

"The strong IP anomaly identified at the Kogli prospect is exciting. A single previous drill hole intersected high grade gold mineralisation. Further drilling will be conducted at Kogli once the funding from the Balogo sale has been obtained," he said.

Appendix 1: JORC Code (2012 Edition), Assessment and Reporting Criteria



Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data

Criteria

JORC Code Explanation

Explanation

Sampling

Techniques

Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry

standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole

gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments,

etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.

Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate

calibration of any measurement tools or systems used.

Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases where 'industry standard' work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg 'reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay'). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information.

Ground Magnetic Survey: used two magnetometers GSM-19 Over Hauser of GEM Systems for the survey. The precision of these devices is 0.1 nT.

One was used as a base station (3 seconds) and the other (with GPS module) was running on the lines at a speed of 2 seconds.

There was no sample compositing.

Orientation of data in relation to geological structure

Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type.

If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the orientation of key mineralised structures

is considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this should be assessed and reported if material.

Survey lines were orientated at approximately 90 degrees to the general strike direction.

Section 2: Reporting of Exploration Results

Criteria

JORC Code explanation

Explanation

Mineral tenement and land tenure status

Type, reference name/number, location and ownership including agreements or material

issues with third parties such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title

interests, historical sites, wilderness or national park and environmental settings.

The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate in the area.

The ground geophysical surveys were carried out over the Korongou permit. Golden Rim is in an agreement to acquire 90% of the Project.

Tenure is in good standing.

Page | 9 32854_2

Exploration done by other parties

Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties.

The area that is presently covered by the Korongou permit has undergone some previous mineral exploration.

Geology

Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.

The Korongou Project covers part of a highly prospective Lower Proterozoic Birimian,

Samira Hill Greenstone belt and is traversed by

a significant NE-trending fault splay which is connected to the major Markoye Fault system. This fault system controls a number of major gold deposits in Burkina Faso, including Kiaka (5.9 Moz), Bomboré (5.2 Moz) and Essakan (6.2 Moz).

The mineralisation lies in a package of highly altered volcanic and volcaniclastic host rocks and is associated with a major gold-in-soil anomaly and a prominent dilatational structural jog along a regional NE-trending shear zone.

Drill hole

Information

A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes:

o easting and northing of the drill hole collar elevation or RL (Reduced Level - elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar

o dip and azimuth of the hole

o down hole length and interception depth

o hole length.

If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case.

No drilling was carried out as part of the survey.

Data aggregation methods

In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated.

Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail.

The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated.

No drilling was carried out as part of the survey, therefore no data aggregation was required.

Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths

These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results.

If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported.

If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement

to this effect (eg 'down hole length, true width not known').

No drilling was carried out as part of the survey.

Diagrams

Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views.

Maps are provided in the main text.

Balanced reporting

Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration

Results is not practicable, representative

reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results.

All results of significance have been included in this report.

Other substantive

Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical

No significant exploration data has been omitted.

exploration data

survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples - size and method of treatment;

metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock

characteristics; potential deleterious or

contaminating substances.

Further work

The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling).

Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive.

RC drilling and auger drilling will be used to test the geophysical anomalies for economic gold mineralisation.

Further work will be dependent on the results from this work.
