Granada Gold Mines Engages a Resource Development Advisor
Rouyn Noranda, Q.C., July 10, 2024 - Granada Gold Mine Inc. (TSXV: GGM) (OTC: GBBFF) (Frankfurt: B6D)
(the “Company” or “Granada”) is pleased to engage John Glew as a Resource Development Advisor for
the Granada Gold Mine Property.
Mr. John Glew recently worked for Lafarge Canada – Quebec Atlantic Canada, Sales Manager for
Projects and Mobile Plants. Lafarge is Canada’s largest provider of sustainable and innovative building
solutions including Aggregates, Cement, Ready Mix and Precast Concrete, Asphalt and Paving, and Road
and Civil Construction.
Mr. Glew, in his significant experience, advised on and developed opportunities in excess of $200 million
in remote areas, and transitioned self-operations into long-term, integrated supplier contracts. He
established relationships with clients, managed sales processes, contract negotiations and delivery of
products and services.
The current mandate for Mr. Glew is to provide a preliminary assessment of the aggregate potential
within the next 30 days for Granada’s high-grade open pit.
CEO Frank J Basa of Granada Gold Mines , stated, "The development of the Granada Gold Mine would
maximize the use of all mined material. The company has initiated a program to evaluate the use of waste
rock. The company has reprocessed the historic 540,000 tonne waste ore dump to Ministry of
Environment standards and sold it to a local construction company for aggregate sales for road bedding
and water shoreline erosion control. With the successful implementation and execution of the waste rock
program, the company is confident that any future waste rock can be repurposed as aggregate.”
Qualified person
The technical information in this news release was reviewed and approved by Matthew Halliday, P.Geo.,

Instrument 43-101.
About Granada Gold Mine Inc.
Granada Gold Mine Inc. continues to develop and explore its 100% -owned Granada Gold Property near
Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, which is adjacent to the prolific Cadillac Break. The Company owns 14.73 square
kilometers of land in a combination of mining leases and claims. The Company is undergoing a large drill
program with 30,000m out of 120,000m complete. The drills are currently paused to provide the technical
team with the necessary time to evaluate and assimilate existing data.
The Granada Shear Zone and the South Shear Zone contain, based on historical detailed mapping as well
as from current and historical drilling, up to twenty -two mineralized structures trending east -west over
five and a half kilometers. Three of these structures were mined historically from fou r shafts and three
open pits. Historical underground grades were 8 to 10 grams per tonne gold from two shafts down to 236
m and 498 m with open pit grades from 3.5 to 5 grams per tonne gold.
Mineral Resource Estimate
On August 20, 2022 the Company released an updated NI 43-101 technical report supporting the resource
estimate update for the Granada Gold project (Please see July 6, 2022 news release) reporting that the
Granada deposit contains an updated mineral resource, at a base case cut-off grade of 0.55 g/t Au for pit
constrained mineral resources within a conceptual pit shell and at a base case cut-off grade of 2.5 g/t for
underground mineral resources within reasonably mineable volumes, of 543,000 ounces of gold
(8,220,000 tonnes at an average grade of 2.05 g/t Au) in the Measured and Indicated category, and
456,000 ounces of gold (3,010,000 tonnes at an average grade of 4.71 g/t Au) in the Inferred category.
Please see Table 1 below for full details. Report reference: Granada Gold Project Mineral Resource
Estimate Update, Rouyn -Noranda, Quebec, Canada authored by Yann Camus, P.Eng. and Maxime
Dupéré, B.Sc, P.Geo., SGS Canada Inc. dated August 20th, 2022 and wi th an effective date of June 23rd,
2022.
Table 1: Mineral Resource Estimate Showing Tonnes, Average Grade, and Gold Ounces
Cut-Off
(g/t Au) Classification Type Tonnes Au (g/t) Gold Ounces
0.55 / 2.5 Measured1 InPit+UG 4,900,000 1.70 269,000
Indicated InPit+UG 3,320,000 2.57 274,000
Measured & Indicated InPit+UG 8,220,000 2.05 543,000
Inferred InPit+UG 3,010,000 4.71 456,000
(1) The 1930-1935 production was removed from these numbers (164,816 tonnes at 9.7 g/t Au / 51,400
ounces Au).
(2) The Independent QP for this resources statement is Yann Camus, P.Eng., SGS Canada Inc.
(3) The effective date is June 23rd, 2022.
(4) CIM (2014) definitions were followed for Mineral Resources.
(5) Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. An
Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to a Measured and Indicated
Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Minera l Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the
majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued
exploration.
(6) No economic evaluation of the resources has been produced.
(7) All figures are rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimate. Totals may not add due to
rounding
(8) Composites have been capped where appropriate. The 2.5 m composites were capped at 21 g/t Au in the
thin rich veins and at 7 g/t Au in the low-grade volumes.
(9) Cut-off grades are based on a gold price of US$1,700 per ounce, a foreign exchange rate of US$0.78 for
CA$1, a processing gold recovery of 93%.
(10) Pit constrained mineral resources are reported at a cut-off grade of 0.55 g/t Au within a conceptual pit
shell
(11) Underground mineral resources are reported at a cut -off grade of 2.5 g/t Au within reasonably
mineable volumes.
(12) A fixed specific gravity value of 2.78 g/cm3 was used to estimate the tonnage from block model volumes
(13) There are no mineral reserves on the Property.
(14) The deepest resources reported are at a depth of 990 m.
(15) SGS is not aware of any known environmental, permitting, legal, title -related, taxation, socio -political,
marketing or other relevant issues that could materially affect the mineral resource estimate.
(16) The results from the pit optimization are used solely for the purpose of testing the “reasonable prospects
for economic extraction” by an open pit and do not represent an attempt to estimate mineral reserves. There
are no mineral reserves on the Property. The results are used as a guide to assist in the preparation of a
mineral resource statement and to select an appropriate resource reporting cut-off grade.
The property includes the former Granada Gold underground mine which produced more than 50,000
ounces of gold at 10 grams per tonne gold in the 1930’s from two shafts before a fire destroyed the surface
buildings. In the 1990s, Granada Resources extracted a bulk sample (Pit #1) of 87,311 tonnes grading 5.17
g/t Au. They also extracted a bulk sample (Pit # 2) of 22,095 tonnes grading 3.46 g/t Au.
