David Martin, VP Exploration for Great Atlantic, states "we are very encouraged by our initial exploration program on the Golden Trust Gold Property. The proportion of soil samples anomalous for gold is significant with anomalous samples concentrated in a few areas representing targets for 2021 exploration. A northeast trending fault is also reported in this region of the property, representing a favourable structure for gold mineralization.

The 2020 reconnaissance soil sampling program was conducted within the northern region of the Golden Trust Property. Twenty-three samples (approximately 18% of the samples) returned anomalous values of 6-52 ppb gold of which eleven samples (approximately 9% of samples) returned 11-52 ppb gold and 4 samples exceeded 20 ppb gold (24-52 ppb Au). The gold anomalies occur as single sample anomalies and as clusters of anomalous samples. Highlights include:

• Sixteen of 50 samples (approx. 32%) along an approximate 1.3-kilometer section of a soil line returned 6-26 ppb gold with 6 samples returning 11-26 ppb gold. A northeast trending fault is reported in this region.

• Three of six samples along an approximate 130-meter section of a soil line returned gold values of 14, 19 and 52 ppb.

• Scattered additional gold anomalies up to 28 ppb gold.

Key points for the Golden Trust Property include:

• Southern boundary is located 1 km north of the Valentine Gold Project of Marathon Gold Corp. The property is approximately 44 km southwest of Great Atlantic's Golden Promise Property and approximately 31 km southwest of the Duck Pond VMS deposit.

• Within the prospective Victoria Lake Supergroup which hosts numerous epigenetic gold & volcanogenic massive sulfide occurrences (including the Duck Pond base metal/precious metal deposit).

• Within the Exploits Subzone of the Dunnage Zone and east of a major (Appalachian-scale) collisional boundary, and suture zone.

• Government till samples (2008) returned elevated to anomalous values for gold in various regions of the Golden Trust Property.

• The property, totalling 2,400 hectares, occurs within an under-explored area of the Newfoundland central gold belt.

The 2020 soil samples were analyzed by Eastern Analytical Ltd. The soil samples were dried and sieved to -80 mesh. Subsamples of the sieved portions were analyzed for gold by fire assay - atomic absorption (AA) and for 34 elements by four acid - ICP-OES. Great Atlantic is independent of Eastern Analytical Ltd.

Readers are warned that mineralization at the Valentine Gold Project, Golden Promise Property, Duck Pond Deposit and elsewhere within the Exploits Subzone is not necessarily indicative of mineralization within the Golden Trust Property.
