VANCOUVER, British Columbia – June 24, 2025 - GREAT ATLANTIC RESOURCES
CORP. (TSXV.GR) (the “Company” or “Great Atlantic”) is pleased to announce it has
received a grant for up to $25,000 from the New Brunswick Department of Natural Resources and
Energy Development for exploration on the Company’s Glenelg Gold – Antimony – Vanadium
Property, located in southwest New Brunswick.
The grant to Great Atlantic was awarded through the Department of Natural Resources and
Energy Development Junior Mining Assistance Program (NBJMAP). The grant funds will
support planned 2025 exploration at the Glenelg Property for a variety of metals including gold,
antimony, vanadium, titanium and lithium.

“We are very appreciative of this support from the New Brunswick government for work at
Glenelg which will support development of the various exploration targets for various
commodities including gold, antimony, vanadium, titanium and lithium on the proper ty” states
Christopher Anderson, President, CEO and Director for Great Atlantic.
Great Atlantic is planning exploration in multiple target areas within the Glenelg Property during
2025. Some work has already been completed with rock samples being collected for gold and
multi-element analysis in the southern region of the property in the area of the Johnson Lake gold
– silver mineral occurrence (New Brunswick Department of Natural Resources and Energy
Development, Mineral Occurrence Database, Reference No. 1304). Great Atlantic confirmed
highly anomalous levels of gold during 2023 in an outcrop in this area with a grab sample
returning 0.501 grams / tonne ( g/t) gold (see Company news release of November 30, 2023).
Great Atlantic collected another grab sample from this outcrop during 2024 which returned a
highly anomalous value of 0.462 g/t gold. This outcrop is altered and pyrite bearing.
The Company is planning exploration during 2025 within the south – central region of the property
in the area of an antimony bearing vein (quartz -carbonate-stibnite) discovered during 2022 with
high grade antimony . The vein occurs in a highway -cut bedrock exposure. Massive stibnite
(antimony sulfide) occurs locally within the vein at the exposure. An initial 2022 grab sample
(1.83 kilograms sample weight) returned a high-grade antimony value of 23.4% (see Company
news release of August 16, 2022). The northwest striking and steeply dipping vein is up to 0.6
meters wide where the 2022 grab sample was collected. Four samples were collected from the
3
same section of the vein during 2023 (within an approximately 0.6 meters by 0.4 meters area)
including two samples returning high grade antimony values of 13.75% (6.36 kilograms sample
weight) and 13.70% (4.94 kilograms sample weight) (see Company news release of April 30,
2024).
A third area of 2025 focus is within the northern region of the property where 2023 rock samples
returned anomalous lithium values (see Company news release of March 14, 2024). An outcrop
grab sample from a highly oxidized and locally faulted outcrop returned an anomalous value of
820 parts per million (ppm) lithium. A grab sample from a granite boulder with quartz veins
returned an anomalous value of 920 ppm lithium. The distance between these two rock sample
locations is approximately 320 meters in a northwest – southeast direction.
Local sampling of the Bocabec Gabbro is also planned during 2025 to analyze for vanadium and
titanium. A 2018 outcrop grab sample from the Bocabec Gabbro (southeast region of the property)
returned 0.33% V2O5 and 10.3% TiO2 (see Company news release of May 6, 2019).
Prospecting and rock geochemical sampling as well as soil geochemical sampling and geophysical
surveys are currently planned during 2025 within the Glenelg property to define trenching and
diamond drilling targets. Rock and soil samples collected during 20 25 will be submitted to an
independent, certified laboratory for gold and multi-element analysis.
Gold analysis of the 2023 and 2024 rock samples discussed in this news release was by fire assay
– AA while antimony analysis of 2022 and 2023 rock samples discussed in this news release was
4
by XRF (following lithium borate fusion). The 2023 rock samples yielding anomalous lithium
values were analyzed by four acid digestion – ICP-AES analysis. Vanadium and titanium analysis
of the 2018 rock sample discussed in this news release was by XRF fusion. ALS Canada Ltd., a
certified laboratory independent of Great Atlantic, conducted the analysis of these rock samples.
The 20 18-2024 exploration programs at the Glenelg Property were supervised by a Qualified
Person while the 2025 exploration program is being supervised by a Qualified Person.
Part of the northern boundary of the Glenelg Property borders the Clarence Stream Project of
Galway Metals Inc. Galway reported a NI 43 -101 resource estimate for the project during 2022,
reporting total Indicated resources of 12,396,000 tonnes at 2.31 g/t gold and total Inferred
resources of 15,963,000 tonnes at 2.60 g/t gold . Readers are warned that mineralization at the
Clarence Stream Project is not necessarily indicative of mineralization within the Glenelg
Property.
David Martin, P.Geo. (New Brunswick and Newfoundland and Labrador), a Qualified Person as
defined by NI 43-101 and VP Exploration for Great Atlantic, approved the technical information
contained in this News Release.
