Standard” or the “Company”) today announced that Larry Radford will
be stepping down from his role as Chief Operating Officer (“COO”)

operational responsibilities in Nevada and Mark Laffoon, currently
Project Director for Gold Standard, will assume project planning
responsibilities.
Jason Attew, President and CEO, commented, "On
behalf of the board and employees of Gold Standard, I want to thank
Larry for his dedicated service to the Company as COO and wish him
the best in his new role as CEO of Argonaut Gold. Larry joined us
as part of the reconstitution of management in 2021 and we have
benefited greatly from his leadership, expertise, and experience in
the mining industry. We have deep technical bench strength at Gold
Standard and are pleased to have Jeff and Mark assume additional
responsibilities. As evidenced by the results of our Feasibility
Study released last month, we believe the South Railroad Project is
one of the best undeveloped gold projects in a Tier-1 jurisdiction
and we continue to advance towards our goal of becoming the
low-cost junior producer of choice in Nevada."
Currently Gold Standard’s Process Manager, Mr.
Fuerstenau has over 35 years of experience in the mining industry
and was previously with Equinox Gold as the General Manager of the

Imperial County, California. Prior to that, he held positions with
Newmont, Goldcorp, Pegasus Gold, and Meridian Gold.
Currently Gold Standard’s Project Director, Mr.
Laffoon has over 40 years of experience in the mining industry,
including significant time in Nevada with both Newmont and Barrick
Gold. At Newmont, Mr. Laffoon was responsible for the mine
development and surface mine operations engineering department
focused on the Carlin Trend. At Barrick Gold, he contributed to the
opening of the Cortez Hills open pit mine and was the construction
manager of the Goldrush underground portal.
