GRANDE PORTAGE RESOURCES COMPLETES DRILL PROGRAM AT

THE HERBERT GOLD PROJECT IN SE ALASKA

VANCOUVER, BC, November 10, 2020 – Grande Portage Resources Ltd. (TSX -V “GPG”); (OTCQB:

“GPTRF”); (Frankfurt: “GPB”); (" Grande Portage " or " the Company ") announced today that it has

completed its previously announced two -rig drill program at the Herbert Gold project in SE Alaska . The

Company completed 21 holes and approximately 8500 metres of its 2020 “step out” (all beyond the limits of

the existing resource) program.

The Company’s drilling continued to test the project’s three primary veins but also penetrated the eastern

extension of the North vein, Sleeping Giant , Ridge, and Elusive veins a s well as numerous subsidiary veins

and structures in between.

Final sample results are expected throughout November, December , and into 2021 due to unprecedented

delays at the assay labs principally due to protocols of the ongoing Covid -19 pandemic. Lab results will be

reported in future disclosures as they are received from the lab and QA/QC has been met. Samples taken for

assay are split from the core with a diamond saw with one half being sent to Bureau Veritas Labs, Richmond,

B.C., an independent lab from the Company. The Company geologist , who is logging the core , identifies

certain sections which could contain coarse gold and marks them for the special preparation procedure of

metallic screening which captures the nuggety gold in the assay. Known standards and blanks are inserted into

the stream of samples on a regular basis. Additionally, all core is photographed with a high resolution camera

for future viewing. Duplicates, blanks, and certified standards report acceptable results.

Ian Klassen, Grande Portage’s President remarked, “ We are delighted to have conduc ted a thorough test

with two rigs this season. Our team has known that the Herbert gold discovery has significant expansion

potential and this is evidenced by the fact we continue to intercept gold bearing veins laterally and at depths

not encountered before. We are anxious to receive the balance of the season’s assays in due course."

This news release has been prepared and approved by Carl Hale, CPG, a geologist with more than 40 years of

experience and a Qualified Person as defined under NI #43-101.

on SEDAR.COM ) is reported at a base case mineral resources cut -off grade of 2.50 grams per tonne gold

(g/t Au) and consists of: An indicated resource of 606,500 ounces of gold at an average grade of 10.03 g/t Au

(1,880,500 tonnes); and an inferred resource of 251,700 ounces of gold at an average grade of 14.15 g/t Au

(553,429 tonnes). The resource assumes undergrou nd m ining techniques, a gold price of $1,300 and are

reported at a 2.5 gpt cut-off. Composites were capped at 125 gpt. Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves

and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part o f the Mineral

Resources will be converted to Mineral Reserves. The estimate of Mineral Resources requires assumptions

that are believed to be reasonable and may be materially affected by environmental permitting, legal, title,

sociopolitical, marketing or other relevant issues.
