KLONDIKE EXPLORATION DATA SHARING AGREEMENT
Goldbank Mining Corp. has agreed to
enter into an exploration data sharing agreement with Anthony Beruschi providing for the
comprehensive exchange of exploration data and results on more than 3,433 hard rock (quartz)
mineral claims located in the prolific placer gold producing Klondike goldfields in the Yukon
Territory, Canada. Goldbank and Mr. Beruschi each hold a large number of quartz (hard rock)
mineral claims in the Klondike goldfields.
Goldbank's Leota gold project comprises 1,049 quartz (hard rock) mineral claims (totalling
approximately 210 square kilometres (21,000 hectares)) located within 50 kilometres of Dawson City with
excellent access by paved highway and existing roads servicing the robust placer mining in the
Klondike goldfields. The Leota gold project overlies the principle eastern ridges and tributaries of
Hunker Creek, a famous placer-gold producing watershed in the Klondike goldfields. Documented
placer gold production from Hunker Creek is in excess of four million ounces of gold. The hard rock
source of the Hunker Creek placer gold, and the substantial hard rock source of placer gold mined to
date from the Klondike goldfields and currently being placer mined from the rest of the Klondike
goldfields has not yet been discovered.
Mr. Beruschi's private companies directly and indirectly own 2,384 quartz (hard rock) mineral claims
totalling approximately 480 square kilometres (48,000 Ha) located both immediately adjacent to
Goldbank's Leota project and throughout the Klondike goldfields primarily in four property
groupings.
The 2023 exploration season has commenced with continuing testing of anomalies by mechanical
trenching, continuing geological mapping utilizing previous, and new results to identify drill targets
and with plans to conduct drone LiDAR (light detection and ranging) and geophysical surveys over prospective areas on the
property areas. Past, present and future exploration results will be confidentially shared between the parties.
Jim Boyce, president of Goldbank, said: "Our exploration data sharing agreement is an important
step forward providing valuable information and insights as we explore and develop, focusing on our
high priority gold targets in the Klondike goldfields." "We are very excited to bring together our
years of knowledge and data to pinpoint the most significant targets as we work to find the hard
rock sources of the Klondike's placer gold production."
Mr. Beruschi holds, directly and indirectly, 35.84 per cent of the issued and outstanding common shares of
Goldbank on a non-diluted basis and is a control person of Goldbank. Mr. Beruschi is also a control
person of Goldbank insider Blizzard Finance Corp. which owns 15.48 per cent of the issued and
outstanding common shares of Goldbank on a non-diluted basis. Mr. Beruschi has joined Goldbank
as vice-president, business affairs. Goldbank has granted 6,996,000 options exercisable at seven cents
per share for a period of 10 years. The options are granted pursuant to the company's stock option
plan and are subject to applicable regulatory hold periods.
Goldbank's Leota gold project is subject to a 3-per-cent NSR (net smelter return). Goldbank is focused on exploration and
development of its Leota gold project in the Klondike goldfields and accordingly the exploration
data sharing agreement continues and affirms Mr. Beruschi's rights to acquire additional mineral
claims in the Klondike and Yukon Territory generally.
