The 2023 work involved prospecting and rock geochemical sampling at eleven properties in
The 2023 work focused on exploration for multiple commodities including gold, silver, antimony, copper, lead, zinc, cobalt, nickel, tungsten and vanadium.
Rock samples were collected from outcrop (grab samples), subcrop and glacial float.
Just under half of the rock samples (approximately 46%) were collected at Great Atlantic's flagship Golden Promise Gold Property in central
'It has been a busy and challenging 2023, but we have successfully managed to address all the requirements across various projects in our portfolio. We anticipate encouraging results, as the season has unearthed various new targets and showings in both the precious metals and rare element fronts. We are especially encouraged by the expansion of the new Gold Targets identified at Golden Promise in NLFD, and our Keymet Precious and Base Metals project in

The Company has received analytical results to date for only twenty 2023 rock samples (eight samples from Golden Promise, five samples from Pilley's Island and seven samples from Glenelg). The highlight for these samples is an outcrop grab sample collected at the Glenelg Property which returned 0.50 grams / tonne gold representing the first gold bearing outcrop discovered by Great Atlantic in a target area.
The soil geochemical sampling conducted during 2023 was more limited. This included 50 soil samples collected at the Golden Promise Property and 41 soil samples collected at the Keymet Property, both sampling programs part of gold exploration programs. The analytical results are pending for these soil samples.
