New Presentation

Granite Creek is pleased to announce that a new corporate presentation referencing the combined projects and the Company's vision for growth of resources is available on the Company's website. Building out from the base of NI 43-101⁽¹⁾ compliant resources of 23.76 million tonnes (oxide and sulphide combined) grading 0.85% Cu, 0.31 g/t Au, 3.14 g/t Ag, containing (446 Mlbs Cu, 237,000 ozs Au and 2.4M ozs Ag), the Company is developing plans for resource expansion as well as assessing targets for potential new discoveries. The Company will continue to update and refine the website and materials over the coming weeks to relay the potential of the southern portion of the Minto Copper Belt, including Carmacks and Carmacks North.

Fall Drill Program

The Company completed 1,067 meters of drilling in five holes on the combined Carmacks and Carmacks North projects in October and November of this year. The program was designed to build the basis for resource delineation at Carmacks North Zone A (formerly known as Stu Zone A) and to test for potential sulphide mineralization expansion at Carmacks in Zone 13. The Company is pleased to announce that significant copper mineralization was encountered in all five holes and assays are currently pending.

ZONE A

Diamond drillholes STU20-001 and STU20-002, drilled at 215^o azimuth and -70 and -45 dip respectively, were collared 40m meters northwest of historic hole 80-9 and targeted higher-grade mineralization (See Figure 1 below). Both holes intersected several sections of oxide and sulphide mineralization with geologists observing chalcopyrite, bornite, malachite, and azurite in the core. The longest mineralized interval in STU20-001 was from 151.60-172.52m. Significant mineralized intervals in STU20-002 were from 27.37-34.86m and 57.55-71.75m.

Drillhole STU20-003, drilled at 215^o azimuth and -45 dip, was collared 47m SE of hole DDH 80-9 and 18m SE of historic hole 80-14. Although STU20-003 was collared quite close to DDH 80-14, the differing azimuth of 215^o vs. 241^o was planned to test a different part of the modeled zone. STU20-003 collared in oxide mineralization directly below the casing from 11.50-36.30m, and then intersected sulphide mineralization from 60.93-81.77m, 113.17-120.30m, and 189.67-194.39m.

ZONE 13

Two vertical holes were drilled at the Carmacks deposit on Zone 13 targeting an area where previous drillholes had intersected significant widths of sulphide mineralisation. CRM20-001 was collared just behind WC-135 and targeted to test behind long sulphide intersection in holes WC-134 and WC-135 (see Figure 4 below). CRM20-001 intersected mineralization from 102.85-230.12m. No results have been received from the lab yet, but chalcopyrite, bornite and rare molybdenite were observed in the core. Based on the success of the first hole, CRM20-002 was drilled 50m to the east of and behind the first hole. CRM20-002 intersected mineralization from 174.40-195.68m and 222.22-223.60m. A fault located below the first zone of mineralization has offset the mineralization in a yet to be determined direction.
