We are pleased to provide an update on the bulk sample program currently underway at the Golden
Promise Property, Jaclyn Main Zone. The program is being conducted and managed by our partner
Novamera Inc. ("Novamera"), which has now commenced drilling the first production hole. Casing has
been successfully set through the overburden, and drilling has transitioned into bedrock - marking a
significant step in the program's execution.
Initial field activities included additional testing and commissioning of Novamera's proprietary Surgical
Mining™ technologies, ensuring that all systems perform to design specifications and operational risks
are minimized. With these processes now substantially complete, extraction of the first hole is expected
to begin by the end of the week.
Novamera's field team and operating partners have demonstrated exceptional adaptability, and
commitment to operational excellence throughout the commissioning phase. As the project advances
into the winter season, operations are expected to continue on schedule, supported by robust planning
and proactive risk management.
This milestone represents a major advancement in validating the Surgical Mining™ approach and
underscores the shared commitment of Great Atlantic Resources and Novamera to innovation,
performance, and the responsible development of new mining technologies that deliver value to
shareholders and the broader industry.

"While the team did experience an initial delay due to unforeseen technical challenges, I'm
pleased to say that those issues seem to have been fully resolved and operations are now back
on track,"
said Christopher R. Anderson, President and CEO of Great Atlantic Resources Corp.
"This milestone reflects the strength of our partnership with Novamera Inc. and the resilience of
our team. The Golden Promise bulk sample program remains a cornerstone of our strategy, and
we're confident in its potential to deliver meaningful results for our shareholders. At the same
time, we continue to advance our broader portfolio of projects across Newfoundland and New
Brunswick to build long-term value, and are continuing discussions with potential new
partnerships."
Golden Promise Mines Inc.
is a wholly owned subsidiary of GR has conducted exploration programs for
gold during 2025 within multiple mineral licences at the 100% owned Golden Promise Property. The
work to date has included trenching (southwest region - see Great Atlantic news release of September
4, 2025), prospecting, rock - soil geochemical sampling, and magnetometer geophysics. Exploration is
continuing at multiple licences at Golden Promise.
Trenching is also planned during 2025 in a target
area in the southwest region of the property in an area northwest-north of the gold-bearing
Linda - Snow White showing (a gold-bearing quartz vein system) pending receipt of required
permits.
Prospecting and rock geochemical sampling were conducted at the adjacent East Golden
Promise Property and Southwest Golden Promise Property, both 100% owned by Golden Promise
Mines Inc. Analytical results are pending for 2025 samples (rock and soil) submitted to date.

Great Atlantic has completed and is conducting exploration during 2025 on multiple projects in New
Brunswick and Newfoundland. This involved exploration for multiple metals including gold, tungsten,
antimony, lithium, vanadium, cobalt, copper, lead and zinc.
Great Atlantic recently completed a program of prospecting and rock geochemical sampling at its 100%
owned South Quarry Tungsten Property. The primary focus of the work was continued exploration for
tungsten mineralization in various target areas. Work in previous years by the Company has confirmed
tungsten mineralization in bedrock and glacial float within the property including high grade tungsten in
two quarries in the northern region of the property (see Company news releases). A secondary focus of
the 2025 program was exploration for gold and emeralds. Great Atlantic had previously confirmed green
beryl crystals at a location in the northern region of the property and is continuing to evaluate emerald
potential within the property. Close to 50 rock samples have been collected from various regions which
will submitted to an independent, certified laboratory for analysis (gold, tungsten, beryllium and other
pathfinder elements).

also been conducted during 2025 and is ongoing at the Company's Glenelg Gold - Antimony - Vanadium
Property, Mascarene Precious Metal - Base Metal Property and Southwest New Brunswick Tin -
Tungsten Project, all located in New Brunswick. A magnetometer geophysical survey was also
completed at the Glenelg Property.
Tungsten mineralization was confirmed in a historic trench at
the Flume Ridge mineral claim at the Southwest New Brunswick Tin - Tungsten Project (see
Company New Release of September 19, 2025).
Analytical results are pending for rock samples
submitted to date from these properties.
