Gold Resource Corporation Provides an Update on Positive Year-To-Date 2023 Drill Results At the Don David Gold Mine
Gold Resource Corporation provided an update on results for the ongoing expansion and infill drill programs at the Don David Gold Mine (DDGM) which continue to provide evidence of adding additional higher grade resources from the north-west Arista, south-central Switchback, the Three Sisters and newly discovered Gloria vein systems.

Hole No. 523021: Switchback Vein System: 5.85 m with NSR value of $131/t @ 0.05 g/t Au, 99.16 g/t Ag, 0.38% Cu, 1.07% Pb, 4.35% Zn; Includes: 0.64 m with NSR value of $757/t @ 0.11 g/t Au, 539 g/t Ag, 1.75% Cu, 7.6% Pb, 26.8% Zn. Currently five underground diamond drill rigs are in operation at DDGM where a total of 61 drill holes for over 14,200 meters have been completed year-to-date in 2023. The program continues to advance 2023 exploration objectives of identifying and defining additional mineral resources and upgrading current inferred resources. Results from the 2023 drilling program are pending incorporation into the upcoming 2023 resource estimate. Three Sisters and Gloria Vein Systems: Expansion drilling is ongoing underground from Level 3 targeting the Three Sisters vein system, located north of and between the Arista and Switchback vein systems. Significant mineralized intercepts continue to be drilled at Three Sisters and the system remains open to the north-west, up-dip and at depth. Notably, several drill hole intercepts are well north of the current resource shells and the successful results here are key in continuing to guide the direction of the 2023 expansion drill program in this zone. After detailed reinterpretation of 2022 drill data, a new vein system was discovered via the continuation of drill holes to the west beyond the Three Sisters vein system to where a new, previously unrecognized vein system, with significant base metal mineralization was intersected. This new system (Gloria) is located west of Three Sisters and north and east of the Arista vein system. Located along a structural weakness at the lithological contact between Tertiary volcanics and Cretaceous basement sediments, initial drill results show good potential to add new additional base metal resources from this zone. The interplay of the Gloria vein system with the Three Sisters vein system is now a primary focus of the 2023 expansion drilling program with two diamond drill rigs on Level 3 continuing to focus on step-out and infill holes on both vein systems. Highlights from Hole No. 523016 which intersected both the Three Sisters and Gloria vein systems are as follow: Hole No. 523016: 3.24 m @ 3.22 g/t Au, 77.47 g/t Ag, 0.09% Cu, 0.69% Pb, 1.42% Zn (Sandy 2); 2.25 m @ 0.07 g/t Au, 32.24 g/t Ag, 0.32% Cu, 0.33% Pb, 5.69% Zn (Gloria HW split); Includes: 1.05 m @ 0.1 g/t Au, 47.6 g/t Ag, 0.39 % Cu, 0.48% Pb, 11.5% Zn; 2.44 m @ 0.07 g/t Au, 17.98 g/t Ag, 0.03% Cu, 1.84% Pb, 6.44% Zn (Gloria FW split); Includes: 0.6 m @ 0.1 g/t Au, 34.3 g/t Ag, 0.04 % Cu, 2.03% Pb, 14.95% Zn. Arista Vein System: Infill and step-out drilling from Level 21 drill stations in the Arista vein system successfully intercepted a series of closely spaced veins down-dip below and along strike to the north-west of the existing Arista mine workings. Infill drilling results during this period along the north-west extension of the Arista vein system continues to show structural continuity (along strike and at depth) and economic potential within these veins beyond areas previously modelled and outside the current resource shell. Of important note, 1) the presence of accessible high-grade gold mineralization immediately below the current productive Level 21 of the Arista mine, and 2) evidence of the robust vertical nature of the Arista epithermal vein system with the continuation of high-grade precious metals at depth. Select highlights from year-to-date 2023 holes in the north-west Arista vein system include: Hole No. 523015: 2.95 m @ 1.53 g/t Au, 105.76 g/t Ag, 0.08% Cu, 0.54% Pb, 4.96% Zn (Daira); Includes: 0.53 m @ 8.31 g/t Au, 498 g/t Ag, 0.02% Cu, 2.32% Pb, 23.4% Zn; 1.73 m @ 16.03 g/t Au, 7.28 g/t Ag, 0% Cu, 0.09% Pb, 1.13% Zn (Marena); Includes: 0.93 m @ 29.8 g/t Au, 12 g/t Ag, 0% Cu, 0.16% Pb, 2.09% Zn; Hole No. 523018: 2.96 m @ 0.18 g/t Au, 109.2 g/t Ag, 0.07% Cu, 1.97% Pb, 12.28% Zn (Veta 3); Includes: 0.99 m @ 0.43 g/t Au, 264 g/t Ag, 0.05% Cu, 3.14% Pb, 17.45% Zn; 3.41 m @ 0.03 g/t Au, 86.44 g/t Ag, 0.03% Cu, 0.33% Pb, 4.82% Zn (Chuy 2); Includes: 1.14 m @ 0.05 g/t Au, 194 g/t Ag, 0.05% Cu, 0.66% Pb, 5.03% Zn; 5.02 m @ 0.04 g/t Au, 123.58 g/t Ag, 0.05% Cu, 0.82% Pb, 9.49% Zn (Viridiana); Includes: 1.08 m @ 0.03 g/t Au, 207 g/t Ag, 0.02% Cu, 0.46% Pb, 23.00% Zn.
