"2021 was a transformative year for the Company, with significant milestones achieved including more than doubling the Company's Resources with our initial Mineral Resource Estimate at Los Ricos North, and a Preliminary Economic Assessment at Los Ricos South released. These were catalysts for the Company which helped to generate significant returns for our shareholders," said Brad Langille, President and CEO stated. "In 2022, we see the opportunity to continue achieving an exceptional return for our shareholders, propelled by some of these key milestones:

Aggressive exploration program targeting substantial district wide growth in resource ounces including 100,000 metres of drilling at Los Ricos North and South
Updated Mineral Resource Estimates at Los Ricos North and Los Ricos South before year end
a Pre-Feasibility Study being completed at Los Ricos South

With the above milestones coupled with the cash flows from the Parral and the Company's strong balance sheet, GoGold is well positioned to generate significant value growth for shareholders in 2022."

Los Ricos North
In 2022, the Company will focus an aggressive drilling and exploration campaign to increase the Mineral Resource Estimate for the Los Ricos North property. Key focus areas of this program will be El Favor East and Gran Cabrera.

El Favor East
The Company will focus on building on the new discovery in El Favor East where there is a clear path to discover additional ounces as the deposit remains open up-dip, down-dip, and along strike. This represents a high probability area for adding ounces, as evidenced by the geophysical anomalies. See the Figure 1 showing the targeted drilling areas as well as the geophysical map.

Gran Cabrera
Gran Cabrera, in Los Ricos North, has been an area where the Company's exploration team has been conducitng detailed sampling and mapping for the past 5 months. The team has identified dozens of historical underground workings along an E-W trending structure over a distance of 1,700 metres along strike and widths extending more than 20 metres. The Company has received assays for 179 samples, of which 95 were above a cut-off of 30 g/t silver equivalent ("AgEq"). The average of those samples was 215 g/t AgEq. Drilling pads are prepared, with drilling to commence in the second week of January along with a geophysical IP survey. The Company sees an exploration potential similar to the El Favor deposit.

Gran Cabrera is located approximately 2 kilometres northwest of La Trini, see Figure 3 for a map showing location.

Geology and Sampling Plan
In 2022, the Company will focus a dedicated team of geologists to map and sample other prospective areas within Los Ricos in order to develop drilling targets for 2023.

Mineral Resource Estimate
In December 2021, the Company released its initial Mineral Resource Estimate at Los Ricos North which showed an Indicated Mineral Resource of 88 million ounces AgEq and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 73 million ounces AgEq.

Los Ricos South

Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS")
The Los Ricos South PFS is anticipated to be completed prior to end the of 2022. Currently, the metallurgical work is approaching completion, site design work is underway, and the Company's technical team is working towards permit submission.

Exploration and Resource Expansion
In 2022, the Company plans to initiate a drilling program on the Jamaica target in Los Ricos South (see Figure 4). The Company's exploration team has been completing detailed mapping and sampling at Jamaica over the last six months and sees the same structure that was drilled in the main zone at Los Ricos South extending for several kilometres over the Jamaica claims. This offers the potential for an additional bulk tonnage target in Los Ricos South.

Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA")
In January 2021, the Company released its initial PEA at Los Ricos South. Highlights of the PEA, with a base case silver price of US$21.00/oz and gold price of US$1,550/oz are as follows:

After-Tax NPV (discount rate of 5%) of $295 Million with an After-Tax IRR of 46% (Base Case);
11-year mine life producing a total of 69.6 million payable AgEq ounces, consisting of 42.9 million silver ounces, 352,000 gold ounces and 4.5 million copper pounds;
Initial capital costs of $125 million, including $16 million in contingency costs, over an expected 18-month build, and additional sustaining capital costs of $62 million over the life of mine ("LOM");
Average LOM operating cash costs of $8.65/oz AgEq, and all in sustaining costs ("AISC") of $11.35/oz AgEq
At approximate spot metal prices of $24.40 silver/oz and $1,800 gold/oz, provides an After-Tax NPV (using a discount rate of 5%) of $408 million and an IRR of 58%.
