[{"type":"text","content":"Great Atlantic Completes Hole One - Extends the Jacklyn North Zone By 50 Meters - Hit Multiple Intervals of Quartz Veining - Assays Pending - Central NewfoundlandVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 11 2020 / GREAT ATLANTIC RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV:GR) (the \"Company\" or \"Great Atlantic\") is pleased to announce it has completed the first hole of the Fall 2020 Phase 2 diamond drilling program at its Golden Promise Gold Property, located within the central Newfoundland gold belt. The first hole (GP20-146) was completed at the Jaclyn North Zone, testing the continuation of gold bearing veins along strike to the east. The drill hole intersected quartz veins and quartz veined intervals containing sulfide mineralization.Drill hole GP20-146 tested east of the Jaclyn North Zone (JNZ) along its projected strike. The JNZ is part of the Jaclyn Zone, being located within the northern region of the Golden Promise Property. The Jaclyn Zone hosts five gold bearing quartz veins systems, including the JNZ and Jaclyn Main Zone (JMZ). The JNZ is reported to strike slightly northeast, being located approximately 250 meters north of the JMZ. GP20-146 was collared approximately 50 meters east of the eastern-most historic JNZ drill hole. GP20-146 was drilled slightly southeast at a 50-degree dip to a length of a 140 Meters. The hole intersected quartz veins at various depths (veins up to approximately 0.9 meters core length) with pyrite, arsenopyrite and / or chalcopyrite. Drill core from hole GP20-146 is being geologically logged and sampled. Drill core samples along with inserted standard and blank samples will be submitted to a certified Laboratory for gold assays and multi-element analysis.The drill is being moved approximately 50 meters northeast of GP20-146 to further test the continuation of quartz veins. Additional planned holes in this area will test for the source(s) of high- grade boulders discovered by the Company during 2017 trenching east of the JNZ. Boulder grab sample assays collected during the 2017 program included 163.9, 208.5 and 332.6 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Great Atlantic News Release of August 31, 2017).Quartz Vein Boulder with Visible Gold from 2017 Trench 4 east of JNZ(2.9 Kg Grab Sample Returned 332.6 g/t Au)In-fill drilling is also planned during the current Phase 2 drilling program at the JMZ in an area of multiple gol...
