GOLDEN PEAK ACQUIRES STRATEGIC LAND PACKAGE IN HEMLO GOLD CAMP
 
Vancouver, BC - October 28, 2016 - Golden Peak Minerals Inc. (TSXV:GP) ("Golden Peak" or the "Company") is pleased to 
--->announce that it has entered into option agreements to acquire a 100% interest in a significant land position totaling
---> approximately 7,250 hectares known as the Heikki project, within the Hemlo Gold Belt, Ontario (the "Property"). The H
--->emlo Gold camp historically produced approximately 24 million ounces of gold from the Golden Giant, David Bell and Pag
--->e Williams mines over the course of 31 years. As of January 2016, proven and probable reserves from the Hemlo Mines wa
--->s 917,000 ounces grading 2.16 g/t Au. The Golden Giant Mine, which was decommissioned in 2005, is now part of the Davi
--->d Bell and Williams mines owned by Barrick Gold and remains in production.

Todd Hanas, President of Golden Peak commented, "We are extremely pleased to put together this strategic land position
---> totaling close to 7,250 hectares. The Heikki project lies within a significant gold belt that has yielded millions of
---> ounces of gold production over the years.  Golden Peak is excited to now control key properties with exceptional expl
--->oration potential noting the geological similarities to other known gold occurrences in the area."

The Company's land position envelops a swath of metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks sandwiched between the Cedar La
--->ke granodioritic pluton to the south and the Gowan Lake and Musher Lake plutons to the north. The Hemlo mines are post
--->ulated to occur within the south limb of a geosyncline whilst the metasedimentary/metavolcanic sequence of rocks is hy
--->pothesized to occur within the north limb of this syncline which is approximately 1.5 kilometers north of the Hemlo Mi
--->nes. This makes this area prospective ground for exploration as the potential for gold discoveries may be analogous to
---> the Hemlo Mine geological setting.

The Company plans to commence reviewing airborne geophysical data in order to focus on the most prospective areas of t
--->his land package, which is approximately 1.5 kilometers in aerial extent from east to west, and approximately 2.0 kilo
--->meters from north to south.
