FOCUSED ON EXPLORING ATLANTIC CANADA
VANCOUVER, British Columbia – June 25, 20 20 – GREAT ATLANTIC RESOURCES
CORP. (TSXV.GR) (the “Company” or “Great Atlantic”) is pleased to announce it is
commenced the 2020 exploration program at its Keymet Precious Metal - Base Metal Property,
located in northeast New Brunswick. The 2020 program will focus on gold exploration in the
southwest to central regions of the property. The Company has identified exploration targets in
these regions based on historical work. Reported historic highlights in th ese regions include a
reported trench chip sample of 2.5 grams / tonne ( g/t) gold over 6.1 meters length, rock grab
samples up to 4.3 g/t gold and soil samples of 217 and 325 parts per billion (ppb).

The Company has commenced prospecting and rock – soil geochemical sampling in the southwest
to central regions of the Keymet Property to define trenching and drilling targets. Geophysical
surveys are also planned for these regions during 2020 to further define exploration targets.
Company management have evaluated historical public records and have identified targets for
focused 2020 gold exploration in these regions of the property. Reported historical highlights for
these regions include:
• 2.5 grams / tonne (g/t) gold over 6.1 mete rs and 1.9 g/t gold over 1.5 metes in historical
trench (1980s).
• 3.3 g/t gold over 0.60 meters in historical trench and 4.3 g/t gold in grab sample (Alcida
East Gold occurrence).
• Gold soil geochemical anomalies were reported during 2005, including reported high
values for gold of 217 and 325 ppb.
Three gold deposits with reported mineral resources are reported west of the southwest region
of the Keymet Property within adjacent mineral claims. Great Atlantic has no interest in these
adjacent mineral claims. These deposits, referred to as the West Gabbro Zone, Discovery Zone
and South Gold Zone, are reported within 2 kilometers of the Keymet Property southwest
boundary.

Micon International Limited reported 43 -101 compliant mineral resources for the West Gabbro
Zone (WGZ), South Gold Zone (SGZ) and Discovery Zone (DZ) in Technical Report on the
Mineral Resource Estimate for the Elmtree Gold Property (Effective Date: 4 March 201 1) for
CNRP Mining Inc. and Gorilla Resources Corp. The reported resources include:
• WGZ: Indicated Resources: 1,611,000 tonnes @ 1.91 g/t gold
• WGZ Inferred Resources: 2,053,000 tonnes @ 1.67 g/t gold
• SGZ: Inferred Resources: 2,237,000 tonnes @ 0.74 g/t gold
• DZ: Inferred Resources: 741,000 tonnes @ 1.18 g/t gold
As reported by Micon International Limited, the resources were estimated using a three -
dimensional block modelling approach. For each mineralized zone, wireframe models were built
up from intersected geologic limits. Grade interpolation for the WGZ was conducted using the
inverse distance cubed technique while interpolations for the DZ and SGZ were conducted using
the nearest neighbour technique due to limited drill hole information. The cut -off grade used was
0.5 g/t gold.
Readers are warned that mineralization at the West Gabbro Zone, South Gold Zone and Discovery
Zone on adjacent mineral claims west of the Company’s Kemet Property is not necessarily
indicative of mineralization on the Keymet Property.
Great Atlantic is also planning exploration during 2020 in the northwest region of the Keymet
Property with the focus being gold. Since acquiring the property, the Company has discovered
gold bearing float and gold in bedrock (in drill holes and trenches) in this region of the property
as well as veins containing high grade zinc, lead, copper and / or silver (see news releases on the
Company’s website). This included high grade gold in one boulder sample, which returned 51
g/t gold. Planned work in the northwest region of the property include prospecting, rock – soil
geochemical sampling and geophysical surveys to define trenching and drilling targets . The
southwest - central regions will be the main focus during 2020.
The Keymet Property hosts the historic Keymet Mine, located in the northwest region of the
property. The Keymet Mine operated during the mid -1950s, producing copper, lead, zinc and
silver. Production at this mine was terminated due to a fire at the site.
Readers are warned that historical records referred to in this News Release have been examined
but not verified by a Qualified Person. Further work is required to verify that historical records
referred to in this News Release are accurate.
David Martin, P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43 -101 and VP Exploration for Great
Atlantic, is responsible for the technical information contained in this News Release.
