Resource Acquisitions on the Cadillac Break Are Positive for Granada Gold Mine
January 22, 2025 , Rouyn Noranda, Quebec, Granada Gold Mine Inc. (TSXV: GGM) (the “Company” or
“Granada”) is pleased to showcase recent property transactions on the Cadillac Break. With the recent
increase in the price of gold, and the acute shortage of permitted mineable resources on the Cadillac
Break located in the Rouyn-Noranda-Val d’Or area, operating gold mining companies have been buying
up companies and resources to sustain their “Fill the Mill” operating requirements.
Frank J. Basa., President and CEO notes, “The current Granada Gold Mine resource valuation has the
potential to increase. In addition, with the continuation at Granada of the planned deep drill program and
ongoing bulk sampling program, it is expected that Granada’s gold resource estimate will increase.”
Recent Resource Valuations Highlights:
Granada Gold Mine high-grade open pit measured and indicated resource at 543,000 ounces
at 2.05 grams per tonne gold (20 percent of the mineralized zone explored) (see below and
news release August 22, 2022). Fully permitted to go into production as a shipper. Meets the
“Fill the Mill” requirements.
$25 million for Yorbeau Resources Inc’s Rouyn Property immediately adjacent to Granada
Gold Mine property (see news release October 2, 2024). Resource is not permitted to go into
production.
$204 million for O3 Mining Inc’s Marban Alliance property (see news release December 12,
2024). Resource is not permitted to go into production.

About Granada Gold Mine Inc.
Granada Gold Mine Inc. continues to develop and explore its 100% owned Granada Gold Property near
Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, and 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 currently undergoing a
large drill program with 20,000m out of 120,000m complete. The drills are currently paused to provide
the technical team with the necessary time to evaluate, assimilate existing data and wait for improved
market conditions.
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 four 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.
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.
