COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., April 09, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gold Resource Corporation (NYSE American:GORO) (the
“Company”) today announced the northwest expansion of the Arista Mine’s Arista vein system with twelve additional step-out and
infill drill holes. Intercepts include 2.00 meters of 6.68 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 864 g/t silver; 2.08 meters of 1.98
g/t gold and 1,583 g/t silver; and 1.55 meters of 9.36 g/t gold and 75 g/t silver. Gold Resource Corporation is a gold and
silver producer, developer and explorer with operations in Oaxaca, Mexico and Nevada, USA. The Company has returned $110
million to shareholders in monthly dividends since commercial production commenced July 1, 2010 and offers shareholders the option

From two underground exploration drill pads located on level 4 in the Arista Mine’s Arista vein system, twelve
drill holes intercepted multiple veins including Splay 31, Santa Cecilia, Alta and additional new veins yet to be named (see table
and map below). These drill holes extend the known mineralization of the Arista vein system along strike to the northwest and
both up and down-dip. The veins in this area of the Arista Mine remain open.

“It is great to see the Arista vein system’s mineralization expand again to the northwest and both up and
down-dip within this swarm of veins,” stated Mr. Barry Devlin, Vice President of Exploration for Gold Resource Corporation.
“The known veins in this area had previously pinched down in width and to see them begin to swell again to form a new ore-shoot,
along with adding new additional veins, is exciting. We look forward to testing the extensions of both these known and yet to
be named veins as the Arista Mine continues to grow.”
