complete.

About GPAC

Great Pacific Gold has a portfolio of high- grade gold projects in Papua New Guinea (“PNG”) and

Australia.

In PNG, Great Pacific Gold recently assembled a 2500 sq. km mineral exploration land package in

PNG. The land package comprises of exploration licenses (EL). It includes both early -stage and

advanced-stage exploration targets with high -grade epithermal vein and porphyry -style

mineralization present.

The Arau Project consists of two exploration licenses, located in the Kainantu region, and includes

the Mt. Victor Prospect, where previous drilling found a multiple phase intrusion complex hosting

copper and gold mineralization.

The Wild Dog Project consists of two granted exploration licenses, EL 2761 and 2516, located on

the island of New Britain and about 50 km southwest of Rabaul and Kokopo, PNG.

The Kesar Creek Project consists of one exploration license, EL 2711, and is contiguous with the

K92 Mining Inc. tenements.

The Tinga Valley Project consists of one exploration license, EL 2720. The OK Tedi Copper Gold Mine

is 140km to the northwest along the same belt is a superb geological comparison to the Tinga Valley

Property.

In Australia, Great Pacific Gold began with two, 100% owned, high- grade gold projects called the

Lauriston and Golden Mountain Projects, and has since acquired a large area of granted and

application tenements containing further epizonal (low-temperature) high-grade gold mineralization

and associated intrusion-related gold mineralization all in the state of Victoria, Australia. The Great

Pacific Gold land package, assembled over a multi- year period, notably includes the Lauriston

Project which is a 535 sq. km property immediately to the south of and within the same geological

framework that hosts Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd’s Fosterville Gold Mine and associated exploration

tenements. The Golden Mountain Project is an intrusion- related gold project on the edge of the

Strathbogie granite and occurs at the northern end of the Walhalla Gold Belt. The acquired projects

include the epizonal gold Providence Project containing the Reedy Creek goldfield which adjoins the

Southern Cross Gold’s (ASX:SXG) Sunday Creek exploration project and a large group of recently

consolidated granted tenements called the Walhal la Gold Belt Project, which contain a variety of

epizonal and intrusion related style gold mineralization. Additionally, Great Pacific Gold has another

gold-focused project called the Moormbool project which has epizonal style gold mineralization and

associated potential intrusion-related gold mineralization, as well as the Beechworth Project occurs

in the northeast of the state and contains intrusion related and mesozonal gold mineralization.

All GPAC’s properties in Australia are 100% owned and have had historical gold production from

hard rock sources despite limited modern exploration and drilling.
