Toronto, ON – March 4, 2013 – Golden Star Resources Ltd. (NYSE MKT: GSS; TSX: GSC; GSE: GSR) (“Golden Star” or the “Company”) today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2012. All references to currency are to US dollars.
Sam Coetzer, President and CEO of Golden Star, commented: “The Company ended 2012 on a positive note, generating net income of $9.1 million in the fourth quarter. For the year, revenue increased to $550.5 million and cash flow provided by operations increased to $94.3 million, up 17% and 300% year-over-year, respectively. We also confirm that the Company delivered on production and cost guidance for this year.”
“Looking back, the Company had a transformational 2012, in which we restarted the relatively low cost Bogoso non-refractory plant, and we made several significant changes to our management team and Board of Directors, in addition to commencing the move of our headquarters to Toronto. We expect to unlock significant value for our shareholders over the next three to four years through further lowering of our production costs by continuing to shift the majority of our production to non-refractory ores at Wassa and developing our high grade Prestea Underground mine. The combination of our current operations of Bogoso and Wassa with the Prestea Underground project and the discovery of significant additional reserves at Wassa, we are in a strong position to grow as a mid-tier gold producer.”

Fourth Quarter 2012 Financial Highlights
| • | Revenue improvement: For the fourth quarter, the Company recorded revenue of $149.7 million and net income attributable to Golden Star of $9.1 million, or $0.04 per share, compared to 2011 fourth quarter revenue of $118.8 million and net income attributable to Golden Star of $7.2 million, or $0.03 per share. Included in 2012 fourth quarter net income is a gain of $9.2 million on the sale of the Company’s Saramacca exploration asset, which more than offset the $2.5 million in higher general and administrative costs (primarily higher due to charges related to the head office move). |
| • | Operating cash flow improvement: Operating cash flow, after changes in working capital, provided $35.6 million, up from $19.5 million in 2011. |
Full Year 2012 Financial Highlights
| • | Revenue improvement: For the 2012 full year the Company recorded revenue of $550.5 million compared to 2011 revenue of $471.0 million. The revenue improvement was the result of more ounces sold at higher gold prices than in the previous year. The higher gold sales were due to the re-start of ore processing at Bogoso’s non-refractory processing plant in early 2012, which contributed an incremental 38,113 ounces to 2012’s total gold sales. |
| • | Strong realized gold prices: The gold price realized by the Company averaged $1,662 per ounce during 2012, up 6% from $1,564 per ounce in 2011. |

| • | Improvement in operating cash flow: After changes in working capital, operations provided $94.3 million of operating cash flow, up from $23.6 million in 2011. The increase was related primarily to increases in revenue from more ounces of gold sold at higher gold prices. Lower reclamation spending also contributed to the improvement in 2012 operating cash flow. |
| • | Reduced total debt position: The Company redeemed $125 million of its 4% convertible debentures due November 30, 2012, using cash and the issuance of $77.5 million of new 5% convertible debentures due June 1, 2017, for a net debt reduction of $47.5 million during the year. |
| • | Cash operating costs: Consolidated 2012 cash operating costs totaled $342.3 million, up 7% from $319.8 million in 2011. The increase in costs was primarily due to the start-up of Bogoso’s non-refractory plant early in 2012, which produced an additional 38,113 ounces. |

Full Year 2012 Operational Highlights
Bogoso/Prestea
| • | The Bogoso/Prestea refractory plant processed 2.5 million tonnes in 2012, which yielded 134,266 ounces of gold. Metallurgical recovery at the refractory processing plant was 71.2% in 2012, an improvement from 69.8% in 2011. |
| • | The Bogoso/Prestea non-refractory plant processed 0.9 million tonnes of ore in 2012, which yielded 38,113 ounces of gold as compared to zero production in 2011. Ore processing was restarted at the Bogoso/Prestea non-refractory plant in the first quarter of 2012 following completion of the plant renovation project in late 2011. |
| • | Bogoso/Prestea’s revenue totaled $286.6 million during 2012, up $64.1 million from $222.5 million in 2011. The increase in revenue was generated by the 38,113 ounces of gold produced from the non-refractory plant during 2012. In addition Bogoso/Prestea’s realized gold price averaged $1,663 per ounce of gold in 2012, 5% higher than the realized $1,584 per ounce in 2011. |
| • | In May 2012, the Company completed a preliminary economic assessment (“PEA”) of the West Reef area of the Prestea Underground mine located near the Bogoso/Prestea mining operation in Ghana. Based on the results of the PEA, the Company is now preparing a feasibility study to better define the economic potential of this underground property which is expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2013. |

Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information:
Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information: Some statements contained in this news release are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other applicable securities laws. Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. Such statements include comments regarding expected reductions in operating costs and increases in margins and production from non-refractory ore; the timing of the Prestea Underground feasibility study; planned exploration activities; anticipated capital (including both sustaining and development capital) expenditures in 2013; the Company’s 2013 production and cash operating cost estimates; the Company’s 2013 operational objectives; and sources of and adequacy of cash to meet capital and other needs. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include timing of and unexpected events at the Bogoso/Prestea oxide and sulfide processing plants; variations in ore grade, tonnes mined, crushed or milled; variations in relative amounts of refractory, non-refractory and transition ores; delay or failure to receive board or government

approvals and permits; the availability and cost of electrical power; timing and availability of external financing on acceptable terms; technical, permitting, mining or processing issues; changes in U.S. and Canadian securities markets; and fluctuations in gold price and input costs and general economic conditions. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting the Company will be those anticipated by management. Please refer to the discussion of these and other factors in our Form 10-K for 2012. The forecasts contained in this press release constitute management’s current estimates, as of the date of this press release, with respect to the matters covered thereby. We expect that these estimates will change as new information is received and that actual results will vary from these estimates, possibly by material amounts. While we may elect to update these estimates at any time, we do not undertake to update any estimate at any particular time or in response to any particular event. Investors and others should not assume that any forecasts in this press release represent management’s estimate as of any date other than the date of this press release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures: In this news release, we use the terms “cash operating cost per ounce.” Cash operating cost per ounce is equal to total cash costs less production royalties and production taxes, divided by the number of ounces of gold sold during the period. We use cash operating cost per ounce as a key operating indicator. We monitor this measure monthly, comparing each month’s values to prior period’s values to detect trends that may indicate increases or decreases in operating efficiencies. This measure is also compared against budget to alert management to trends that may cause actual results to deviate from planned operational results. We provide this measure to our investors to allow them to also monitor operational efficiencies of our mines. We calculate this measure for both individual operating units and on a consolidated basis. Cash operating cost per ounce should be considered as Non-GAAP Financial Measures as defined in SEC Regulation S-K Item 10 and other applicable securities laws and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are material limitations associated with the use of such non-GAAP measures. Since this measure does not incorporate revenues, changes in working capital and non-operating cash costs, it is not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Changes in numerous factors including, but not limited to, mining rates, milling rates, gold grade, gold recovery, and the costs of labor, consumables and mine site general and administrative activities can cause these measures to increase or decrease. We believe that these measures are the same or similar to the measures of other gold mining companies, but may not be comparable to similarly titled measures in every instance.
For additional information regarding the Company’s mineral reserves and resources, please refer to the Company’s February 5, 2013 press release entitled “Golden Star Announces Mineral Reserves and Resources Estimates as at December 31, 2012”.
