Gold Resource Corporation (Gold Resource) Announces an Update

Results from an internal analysis of step-out drilling at its Arista deposit estimates of in-place mineralized material at the Arista deposit, based on the Company's modeling of the Arista and Baja veins, equals 2,962,000 tonnes grading 6.50 g/t gold (Au), 506 g/t silver (Ag), 0.60% copper (Cu), 2.24% Lead (Pb), 6.75% zinc (Zn) over a nominal 3.6 meters true width.

Gold Resource Corporation's president William W. Reid stated, "We made our production decision in 2007 with just a mineralized material estimate of 300,000 AuEq ounces. We could do that because we followed our financial performance criteria of being able to pay back the project capital in one year or less. By October of 2008 we announced our mineralized material estimate of 1.6 million AuEq ounces (metal prices used at that time were different from those used in the present calculation). This allowed for an expanded production profile with mine life of 4.7 years. We are pleased that drilling over the past year, with only one drill, has allowed that estimate to now increase to approximately 2.4 million AuEq* ounces and an estimated 9 year mine life. Based on our increased understanding of this exciting, high-grade geologic system, which we believe we have only just begun to test with drilling, we have no hesitation increasing our near term mineralized material target to 3.5 million gold equivalent ounces."

Mr. Reid continued, "Our first year production target of 70,000 ounces of gold comes from the El Aguila open pit's gold and silver deposit which contains no base metals. Our second year through year nine production targets come from our Arista deposit's polymetallic veins with a breakdown of values of approximately 68% precious metals (gold and silver) and 32% base metals (copper, lead and zinc). We are fortunate that these base metal revenues, when used as byproduct credits, are anticipated to pay for the project's total cash operating costs so we are targeting our gold and silver cash costs to be 'zero' from the second year of operations. Production targets are 110,000 oz/AuEq** in the second year with a target of 180,000 to 200,000 oz/AuEq** in the third through ninth year."
