Zinc

52% price increase in 2016

>50% reduction LME zinc stockpiles in past 4 years

Forecasts of large supply deficit for the next 2 years and beyond

Paguanta Mineral Resource (Sept, 2012)

Page 11

At a 3% zinc cut-off, the higher grade Mineral Resource mainly associated with the Cathedral Vein is 1.8Mt at 5.6% zinc, 2.0% lead, 125 g/t silver and 0.2 g/t gold or 1.8Mt at 9.8% ZnEq*

Majority of the Mineral Resource contained in the Measured and Indicated categories

All veins remain open at depth and along strike & there is significant scope to increase the resource

~30% of the mineralised intercepts were not assayed for gold

*ZnEq = zinc equivalent calculation details provided in Appendix 1.

This information was prepared and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004. It has not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported. Golden Rim will shortly conduct further drilling at Paguantaand intends to prepare a JORC 2012 Mineral Resource in 1st Half 2017.

Paguanta Exploration Target

Page 12

Notes:• Cautionary Statement: The potential quantity (tonnage) and

grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of Mineral Resources.

• Mining Plus created an indicative mineralisation model to identify the potential location and size of the immediate strike and dip extensions to the current mineralised system utilising Leapfrog Geo implicit modelling software to create solids at a 3% cut-off grade and a maximum vein width of 5m.

• The Exploration Target was based on drilling data, surface geochemical data and a 3D model of Induced Polarisation (IP) chargeability data. The surface geochemical data (1,930 samples) and IP geophysical data (survey by Zonge, Chile, 2012) were utilised to support the continuity of mineralisation in areas where drilling was more sparse.

• A total of 28 RC drill holes (3,626m) and 11 diamond drill holes (1,338m) were used to prepare the Exploration Target. The holes are generally drilled on lines spaced from 20m – 250m apart, with a spacing along the lines ranging from 30m – 200m*.

• A base for the Exploration Target was set at 3250mRL – 200m below the base of the current drilling. The Exploration Target extends along strike for 250m from the eastern-most drill hole.

• The Exploration Target was calculated using a SG of 3.2 g/cm3

* Drill hole location diagram in Quarterly Activities Report for the period ending 30 September 2016

The Exploration Target represents potential polymetallic endowment at Paguanta beyond the existing Mineral Resource.

GMR finalised the sale of its Balogo Gold Project in Burkina Faso to MNG Gold on the 3rd March 2016 for US$8m in cash

GMR is looking to create value from its remaining 3 gold assets in Burkina Faso while it focuses on Chile. These assets include:

Korongou, 90% ownership (GMR expenditure US$4.4m)

Yako, 100% ownership (GMR expenditure US$0.7m)

Babonga, 100% ownership (GMR expenditure US$0.1m)

GMR is pursuing a sale or a joint venture on the 3 projects.

The transaction would provide a buyer or joint venture partner with a highly prospective and strategic licence package in Burkina Faso, which has seen major gold discoveries & significant M&A activity in the past few years

GMR’s drilling at Korongou has discovered significant gold mineralisation.

GMR believes Korongou offers a near-future, gold mine development opportunity.

RC drilling intercepts include:

21m at 5.6 g/t gold from 13m 10m at 4.5 g/t gold from 15m

Initial Exploration Target of approximately 500,000 ounces to 611,000 ounces of gold

Exploration Target is open along strike & at depth (900mgap area, with bedrock auger results up to 4.4 g/t gold)

GMR has discovered significant new gold mineralisation that we believe could provide the basis for a new gold mine development

Notes:•The Exploration Target was estimated using the following parameters: 0.5 g/t gold cut-off grade; maximum of 100m strike extent from drill holes (wherethe continuity of the mineralisation is supported by mapping, the location of artisanal workings or anomalous auger results); maximum of 70m verticalextent below surface for the Guitorga North, Guitorga South and Diabouga areas; maximum of 120m vertical extent below surface for theMCA/MCB Pits area; minimum downhole width of 2m; and SG of 2.5.•A total of 94 RC drill holes were used to prepare the Exploration Target. The holes are generally drilled on lines spaced from 40m – 100m apart, with aspacing along the lines ranging from 40m – 50m.

Cautionary Statement: The potential quantity (tonnage) and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resources and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of Mineral Resources.

Zinc Equivalent (ZnEq) Calculation Details

• Metal prices quoted on Kitco.com on 14 July 2016 were utilised in the ZnEq calculationand included the following: Zn = US$0.98/lb; Pb = US$0.85/lb; Ag = US$20.36/oz andAu = US$1344/oz).

• Non-optimised metallurgical recoveries were derived from testwork as part of thefeasibility study at Paguanta and include 82%, 80% and 90% for Zn, Pb and Agrespectively. For Au a 90% recovery has been assumed, which Golden Rim believes isa reasonable average for an epithermal style of deposit.

• It is Golden Rim’s opinion that all elements included in the metal equivalent calculationhave a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold.

• The ZnEq calculation formula is as follows: ZnEq = (Zn% x 0.82) + (Pb% x 0.80 x 0.87)+ (Au% x 0.90 x 19,996) + (Ag% x 0.90 x 302).
