Group Eleven Announces Completion of Tellus Airborne
Geophysical Survey Over Stonepark, PG West and Silvermines,
Ireland
Vancouver, Canada, May 21, 2019 – Group Eleven Resources Corp. (TSX.V: ZNG; OTCQB: GRLVF; FRA: 3GE)
(“Group Eleven” or “Company”) is pleased to announce that, further to the Company’s news release
dated September 27, 2018, the Geological Survey of Ireland’s (“GSI”) airborne geophysical (‘Tellus’) survey
over the Company’s Stonepark , PG West and Silvermines projects in the Republic of Ireland is now
complete. Data is currently being processed by the GSI and is expected to be publicly released sometime
in the third quarter of 2019.
“We are excited to overlay the upcoming Tellus geophysical data on our recently-released preliminary drill
results at Stonepark PG West,” stated Bart Jaworski, CEO of Group Eleven. “Combining these data sets will
help us further refine our high-priority drill targets and potentially lead to new and exciting ideas ahead of
our ‘Big Drill’ campaign later this year. Identifying mineralized corridors connecting known mineralization
in the camp, including Pallas Green1, Stonepark2, Carrickittle-Kilteely, Ballywire, Oola and Gortdrum – will
take us a big step closer towards our vision of discovering Ireland’s next Tier 1 zinc deposit.”
Details on Tellus survey : The Tellus survey covered 2,100 square kilometres of Magnetics, EM and
Radiometrics data over Group Eleven’s exploration ground in the highly prospective Limerick and
Silvermines geological basins. The survey is expected to advance high-priority, drill targets in the region.
How does Tellus help exploration? The Tellus survey is designed to ‘sense’ hidden geological features not
apparent through surface mapping or shallow geophysical techniques. It attempts to 'see through'
Ireland's often deep glacial deposits and extensive peat and soil cover. The results are expected to provide
clues to the location of hidden zinc deposits.
What is Tellus? The Tellus survey , is a nation wide geochemical and geophysical data programme
undertaken by the GSI and funded by the Department of Communications, Climate Action and
Environment (“DCCAE”). Its aim is to benefit the mineral, agricultural and environmental sectors in
Ireland. For further information about the survey, see DCCAE’s announcement dated August 9th 2018.
Why explore for zinc in Ireland? Zinc is the fourth most consumed metal in the world after iron, aluminium
and copper. Presently, global inventories of zinc total less than six days of global consumption – over a
decade low. Ireland is one of the largest zinc producers in Europe and host to some of the world’s largest
zinc deposits. Modern exploration in the Irish Zinc District spans the last 70 years. Group Eleven believes
new major deposits remain to be discovered via comprehensive re-evaluation of the region’s geology
coupled with new exploration techniques such as airborne geophysical surveys, ground -based seismic
surveys, artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies.

About Group Eleven Resources
Group Eleven Resources Corp. (TSX.V: ZNG; FRA: 3GE and OTC: GRLVF) is a mineral exploration company
focused on advanced stage zinc exploration in Ireland. The Company’s large land package allows Group
Eleven to leverage new geological approach and geophysical technology to systematically rethink k ey
aspects of the Irish zinc district. The Company’s two key projects in Ireland include: a 60% interest in the
Ballinalack project (joint ventured with Nonfemet - one of the largest zinc producers in China), located in
north-east Ireland, hosting potential Navan Bed mineralization in the Pale Beds; and a 75.56% interest in
the Stonepark project (joint ventured with Arkle Resources plc), located near Limerick, next to one of the
world’s largest undeveloped zinc deposits: Glencore’s Pallas Green deposit. The Company’s team includes
accomplished mining professionals with direct experience in finding mines, building companies and
exploring Irish zinc deposits.
