The current program consists of prospecting and rock / soil geochemical sampling, being focused in a new target area in the east region of the East Golden Promise Property. Soil samples will be collected in an area of gold soil anomalies identified during 2022. Fifteen soil samples were collected during 2022 along an east-west traverse approximately 300 meters long. Ten of the 2022 soil samples returned anomalous gold values of 10 parts per billion (ppb) and higher, including 71 ppb gold and 137 ppb gold (see Company news Release of April 18, 2023). The 2022 soil samples were analyzed by Eastern Analytical Ltd. for gold by fire assay – AAS.

Prospecting and rock geochemical sampling are underway in the east region of the property. This includes the area of the gold soil anomalies discussed in the preceding paragraph. Rock samples collected in this area during 2022 returned anomalous gold values up to 0.084 parts per million gold (84 ppb Au) from loose rock near bedrock (see Company news release of December 7, 2022) while a 2021 rock sample collected from glacial float in this area returned 123 ppb gold. The 2021 and 2022 rock samples were analyzed for gold by fire assay – AAS (2021 samples by Eastern Analytical Ltd. and 2022 samples by ALS Canada Ltd.). Both Eastern Analytical Ltd. and ALS Canada Ltd. are independent of Great Atlantic and Golden Promise Mines Inc.

The objective of the 2024 program is to determine the extent of the gold anomalies and identify trenching targets. No diamond drill holes or trenches are reported in this target area.

The East Golden Promise Property is one of eight central Newfoundland gold properties owned by Golden Promise Mines Inc. and located within the Exploits Subzone of the Newfoundland Dunnage Zone. One of these gold properties (Golden Trust) is located within one kilometer of the Valentine Gold Mine of Calibre Mining Corp. which is also located within the Exploits Subzone. Readers are warned that mineralization at the Valentine Gold Mine is not necessarily indicative of mineralization at the East Golden Promise Property or any of the other central Newfoundland gold properties of Golden Promise Mines Inc.
