MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Golden Star Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) and all information in this
financial report are the responsibility of the Company's management (“Management”). The consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board (“IFRS”) and, where appropriate, include Management’s best estimates and judgments.
Management maintains a system of internal control designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded from
loss or unauthorized use, and that financial information is timely and reliable. However, any system of internal control over
financial reporting, no matter how well designed and implemented, has inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect all
misstatements.
The Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring that Management fulfills its responsibilities for financial reporting and is
ultimately responsible for reviewing and approving the consolidated financial statements.
The Board carries out this responsibility principally through its Audit Committee. The Board of Directors appoints the Audit
Committee, and all of its members are independent directors. The Audit Committee meets periodically with Management and
the Auditors to review internal controls, audit results, accounting principles and related matters. The Board of Directors
approves the consolidated financial statements on recommendation from the Audit Committee.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC” or “Auditors”), an independent firm of Chartered Professional Accountants, was
appointed by the shareholders at the last annual meeting to examine the consolidated financial statements and provide an
independent audit opinion. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has full and free access to the Audit Committee.
