VANCOUVER, October 17, 2023 - Great Atlantic Resources Corp. (TSXV.GR) (the "Company" or "Great Atlantic") is pleased to announce it has completed its 2023 exploration program at its Golden Promise Gold Property, located in the central Newfoundland gold belt. The program included prospecting and rock geochemical sampling in various region of the property and soil geochemical in one area in the southern region of the property. Rock and soil samples have been submitted to an independent laboratory for gold and multi-element analysis. The focus of the work is to further define trenching and drilling targets.
The 2023 program targeted multiple target areas within the Golden Promise Property. The property consists of 14 mineral licences. Prospecting and rock geochemical sampling were conducted within 11 licences with samples collected from outcrop, subcrop and glacially transported float. A total of 220 rock samples were collected. Fifty soil samples were collected within one licence. The samples have been submitted to Eastern Analytical Ltd. for gold and multi-element analysis. The analytical results are pending for all soil samples and 212 rock samples.
One priority area of focus during the 2023 program was within the southwest region of the property, northeast of the gold bearing Linda / Snow White quartz vein system. This is an area of gold soil geochemical anomalies identified by the Company during 2018 and 2020 (see Great Atlantic News Releases of September 27, 2018, and November 20, 2020).

The 2023 soil sampling was conducted in this area to further define gold geochemical anomalies. Over half of the 2023 rock samples were collected in this region of the Golden Promise Property
