New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 76% This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (24% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 18% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (76% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m. Market cap is less than US$10m (€3.06m market cap, or US$3.24m). Duyuru • Oct 07

Gold Line Resources Ltd. Provides an Update on Exploration Activities on Its 100%-Owned Paubacken and Storjuktan Projects Located in the Gold Line Belt, Northern Sweden Gold Line Resources Ltd. provided an update on exploration activities on its 100%-owned Paubacken and Storjuktan projects located in the Gold Line Belt, northern Sweden. The summer 2023 exploration was designed to progress existing targets and identify additional targets through execution of systematic exploration programs consisting of regional till sampling and base-of-till /top of bedrock drilling. Program Overview. Paubacken: 1,181 meters ("m") in 71 BoT drill holes were completed at the Aida zone. These holes were designed to systematically test prospective structural corridors at the Aida target to define additional drill targets and increase the footprint size of anomalous 2021 and 2022 results. Logging of drill chips and assays of samples is underway. In addition, 3,050 regional B Horizon (below topsoil) till samples were collected covering 1,350 hectares ("ha") over a 12 kilometer ("km") strike length of the northern extent of the first order Gold Line Belt structural corridor and associated second-order structures within the Paubacken exploration permit. Results are pending. Storjuktan: 4,357 regional B Horizon samples covering approximately 2,000 ha over multiple untested structural corridors within the central portion of the 25,000 ha Storjuktan project area were completed to identify additional areas of hydrothermal anomalism and assess regional upside. Results are pending. BoT sampling: Two BoT samples from directly above the till bedrock interface and two bedrock samples within the top of bedrock are collected for all drill holes. All samples are screened with X-ray fluorescence ("XRF") and analysed using a multi-element suite at MSALABS in Storuman, Sweden. Glacial till geochemical sampling: All samples are collected from the glacial till-derived B Horizon soil layer and screened using handheld XRF for pathfinder elements. The sampling density was very high, every 20 m on 100 m spaced lines. Anomalous areas identified will be tested for gold ("Au") at an external laboratory in Fourth Quarter 2023. Paubacken 2023 Exploration Program. The 2023 exploration program at Aida was designed to step out on known mineralization and identify additional areas of hydrother mal alteration and mineralization along the structural corridor and develop additional targets for follow up. Follow up drilling in 2022 included 14.6 m of 2.5 g/t Au starting at 142 m depth in AID-2022-001 along the structure, 50 m down drip from the initial intercept. In addition, a regional till sampling survey was completed over the northern portion of the project area. The survey focused on the northern extension of the regional Gold Line first order structure corridor and associated second order splay structures within the Paubackan permit area. In total 3,050 regional B Horizon soil samples were collected covering 1, 350 ha over a 12 km strike length of the regional structural corridor. The objective of the program was to identify additional zones of anomalous hydrothermal alteration within the larger Paubacken project area for follow up investigation. The Paubacken Project consists of 3 licenses totaling 17,097 ha that cover the central part of an emerging district in north central Sweden known as the "Gold Line Belt". The Gold Line Belt is host to several significant gold deposits, including gold deposits, including gold and gold deposits.
