FOCUSED ON EXPLORING ATLANTIC CANADA
VANCOUVER, British Columbia – Aug 10th, 20 21 – GREAT ATLANTIC ESOURCES
CORP. (TSXV.GR) (the “Company” or “Great Atlantic”) is pleased to announce it has begun
an additional diamond drilling program by the Company, at the Keymet Silver Mine located in
Northern New Brunswick.
“Great Atlantic retains a portfolio of 100% owned projects and currently has two of these
projects under option. In addition to our option partners, Great Atlantic will also be conducting
drilling and exploration programs on some of these assets, while looking further at alternative
avenues to unlock their value.
Our main focus, which we are currently drilling, is on our high-grade Gold Resource in
central Newfoundland, The Golden Promise Gold property, where we have a high -grade
resource and multiple new gold discoveries awaiting their turn for a drill bit. This project is
situated in the hottest emerging Gold Belt’s in North America” states Chris Anderson CEO

The Keymet exploration program will test numerous target areas in the northwest region of the
property. The Company previously discovered high grade gold, silver, copper and zinc in this
region, including a drill intercept of 9.04% zinc, 9.19% copper and 1,158 gams per tonne (g/t)
silver over 3.00 meters core length and a boulder sample returning 51 grams / tonne (g/t) gold.
Great Atlantic has recently received a p ermit for 10 drill holes in the North west region of the
property. Certain holes will target three polymetallic (zinc, copper, lead and silver) vein type
occurrences. Other holes will target untested electromagnetic anomalies. One short hole is planned
under a gold-bearing outcrop. A 2015 grab sample from this outcrop re turned 1.14 grams / tonne
(g/t) gold.
The first hole of the program will test the possible extension of the Elmtree Silver Mine vein
occurrence southeast of the historic shaft. High grade silver and lead is reported at this occurrence
by the New Brunswick Department of Energy and Resource Development.

Drilling is underway at the Elmtree 12 vein system including one hole testing the system deeper.

during 2015 - 2018 drilling programs including:
• Ky-15-3: 16.68% Zn, 1.11% Cu, 0.44% Pb and 152 g/t Ag over 1.80 meters.
• Ky-15-4: 8.68% Zn, 0.29% Cu, 0.20% Pb and 44 g/t Ag over 4.28 meters.
• Ky-17-6: 7.67% Zn, 1.57% Cu, 0.48% Pb and 209 g/t Ag over 4.95 meters.
• Ky-18-10: 7.91% Zn, 0.53% Cu, 0.21% Pb and 77 g/t Ag over 3.27 meters.
• Ky-18-12: 8.90% Zn, 3.81% Cu, 0.60% Pb and 157 g/t Ag over 1.20 meters.
• Ky-18-14: 9.04% Zn, 9.19% Cu, 2.16% Pb and 1,158 g/t Ag over 3.00 meters.
• Ky-18-14: 12.08% Zn, 0.31% Cu, 0.30% Pb and 59 g/t Ag over 4.50 meters.
Vein hosting high grade zinc, copper and silver in Ky-18-14
Drilling is planned to further test a polymetallic vein discovered by the Company southwest of the
Elmtree 12 vein system . Drill hole Ky -17-8 intersected this vein, returning 18.8% zinc, 3.55%
copper, 1.16% lead and 576 g/t silver over 1.27 meters core length.
