This brochure contains statements that plan for or anticipate the future. Forward-looking statements include statements about the Company's ability to develop and produce gold or other precious metals, statements about our future business plans and strategies, statements about future revenue and the receipt of working capital, and most other statements that are not historical in nature. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words such as "anticipate," "plan," "believe," "expect," "estimate," and the like. Because forward-looking statements involve future risks and uncertainties, there are factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied, including those described in our filings with the SEC. Prospective investors are urged not to put undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. This presentation is to be read in conjunction with the most current 10K available at the Securities & Exchange Commission website www.sec.gov. or www.Goldresourcecorp.com Forward Looking Statements 2

Gold 30 Gold manipulators under fire Circular process of “spoofing” futures markets and direct market manipulation is under investigation and individuals being prosecuted “ex-Deutsche Bank trader David Liew pled guilty in Federal Court to “spoofing” and direct manipulation of precious metals markets, and was subsequently banned permanently from the industry.” Friday June 23, 2017 http://www.newsmax.com/Finance/PeterReagan/Gold-Price-Manipulation-Silver/2017/06/08/id/794998/

Gold 31 Gold manipulators under fire CFTC crackdown on metal manipulators U.S. said to be planning more charges against bank traders Deutsche Bank has wound down most of its metals trading desk since ~2014 “After pleading guilty to fraud charges last week and agreeing to cooperate, Liew has become a prime government witness for U.S. prosecutors investigating whether traders at the world’s biggest banks conspired to manipulate prices in silver, gold, platinum and palladium. His chats with colleagues -- part of an FBI affidavit filed in Chicago and placed under seal -- provide a window into the investigation by the Justice Department, which began looking into such activities at a dozen of the biggest global banks two years ago.” It’s positive that regulators are charging individuals / not just banks ‎June‎ ‎5‎,  ‎2017‎ https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-06-05/chats-by-metals-trader-reveal-spoofing-tricks-from-the-master
