The 2024 program at Golden Trust consists of prospecting and rock – soil geochemical sampling. Work
is planned in areas not previously explored by the Company and in areas of gold soil anomalies
identified by the Company during 2020 and 2022 exploration programs.
Great Atlantic identified gold soil geochemical anomalies during 2020 and 2022 reconnaissance
level soil sampling programs in multiple areas within the northern region of the Golden Trust
Property. Analytical high values for these samples included 52 parts per billion (ppb) gold and
72 ppb gold, both samples within an approximately 350 meters long target area in the northwest
region of the property
(see Company news releases of January 27, 2021, and February 17, 2023).
The 2024 program will include prospecting and rock – soil geochemical sampling in the northern region
of the property, the objectives to further define target areas for future gold exploration and locate sources
of gold soil anomalies in this region of the property; and reconnaissance level prospecting and rock
geochemical sampling +/- soil geochemical sampling to identify target areas in other regions of the
property.

The Golden Trust Property (2,400 hectares) is relatively under-explored. Great Atlantic management
have not found any reports of diamond drilling within the property.
Key points for the Golden Trust Property include:
Located 1 km north of the Valentine Gold Mine of Calibre Mining Corp. and approximately
44 km southwest of Great Atlantic's flagship Golden Promise Property.
Located within the prospective Victoria Lake Supergroup which hosts numerous
epigenetic gold & volcanogenic massive sulfide occurrences
Located within the Exploits Subzone of the Dunnage Zone and east of a major
(Appalachian-scale) collisional boundary, and suture zone.
Government till samples (2008) returned elevated to anomalous values for gold in various
regions of the Golden Trust Property.
Readers are warned that mineralization at the Valentine Gold Mine
and Golden Promise Property and
elsewhere within the Exploits Subzone is not necessarily indicative of mineralization within the Golden
Trust Property.
The 2020 and 2022 soil samples referred to in this news release were analyzed by Eastern Analytical
Ltd. The samples were analyzed for gold by fire assay – atomic absorption (AA) and for 34 elements by
four acid – ICP-OES. Great Atlantic is independent of Eastern Analytical Ltd. The 2020 and 2022
exploration programs at Golden Trust were supervised by a Qualified Peron.
