Golden Dawn Minerals Inc. Provides Update on Greenwood Mine and Mill Following the Heavy Rains in Southwest BC

To date, the heavy rains and flooding in southwestern British Columbia have had no material impact on Golden Dawn's infrastructure and field operations. There was no significant rainfall in the area of the Greenwood Mill and tailings storage facility and the infrastructure remains in excellent condition and under 24-hour security. Similarly, no impacts were observed at the Lexington mine and the nearby May Mac mine and tailings storage. Golden Dawn continues to monitor these properties regularly. All of Golden Dawn's other exploration properties are unaffected by the flooding.

Our priority remains the health, safety, and well-being of our employees, contractors and communities.

Although the Company believes that such statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts; they are generally, but not always, identified by the words "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "intends," "estimates," "projects," "aims," "potential," "goal," "objective," "prospective," and similar expressions, or that events or conditions "will," "would," "may," "can," "could" or "should" occur, or are those statements, which, by their nature, refer to future events. The Company cautions that forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Company's management on the date the statements are made and they involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Consequently, there can be no assurances that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Except to the extent required by applicable securities laws and the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, the Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements if management's beliefs, estimates or opinions, or other factors, should change. Factors that could cause future results to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements include the possibility that the TSX Venture Exchange will not approve the proposed share consolidation, and that the Company may not be able to raise sufficient additional capital to continue its business. The reader is urged to refer to the Company's reports, publicly available through the Canadian Securities Administrators' System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) at www.sedar.com for a more complete discussion of such risk factors and their potential effects. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of any of securities of the Company in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful, including any of the securities in the United States of America.
