Southern New Brunswick

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, February 26 2021 - GREAT ATLANTIC RESOURCES

CORP. (TSXV.GR) (the “Company” or “Great Atlantic”) is pleased to announce it begun its

maiden diamond drilling program at its Mascarene Property, located in southwest New Brunswick.

2

The current drilling program is being conducted in an area of anomalous rock and soil samples

identified by the Company during 2020 and within the magnetic high trend. Rock samples

collected by the Company during 2020 prospecting and trenching programs returned

anomalous values for zinc and copper including bedrock samples of 7810 ppm zinc (0.781%

Zn), 5800 ppm zinc (0.58% Zn), 806 ppm copper and 583 ppm copper and a float sample

returning 1100 ppm copper . Some rock and soil samples from this area returned anomalous

values for gold. The drilling program will be a minimum 600 meters with at least 3 holes to be

completed.

The current drilling program is also testing within a broad northeast trending zone of magnetic

high anomalies (identified during a 2001 government airborne magnetic survey ). This zone of

magnetic high anomalies extends through the entire Mascarene Property, including the east region

where dr illing is underway. Gold, silver, copper, nickel , cobalt and / or zinc mineralization is

reported locally within and / or adjacent to this magnetic trend including two mineral occurrences

with historic workings (Oliver Cameron Mine and Wheal Louisiana Mine occurrences) and within

a small quarry referred to as the North Pit. Great Atlantic’s management speculate this magnetic

high trend to be associated with a buried mafic intrusion(s) and a possible target for mafic intrusive

hosted copper-nickel-cobalt deposits.

The Mascarene Property covers an area of approximately 2,080 hectares. The property is located

approximately 6 kilometers southwest of the town of Saint George. Access is excellent with paved

provincial roads transecting the property and within close proximity of the property.
