Regional Project Acquisition

The Company also announces acquisition of an additional claim package as part of its regional exploration program.  The "Red Lake North" (or "RLN") property consists of 3,220 hectares of mineral claims located in what are interpreted to be the Woman Lake and Flat Lake assemblages of the Balmer Sequence, approximately 70 kilometres northeast of Red Lake. Figure 1 .  Of importance, third party logging activities are planned for 2021 that will provide road access to the RLN property for the first time, facilitating low cost exploration.

The property hosts local D2 fold culminations which are important controls of gold mineralization elsewhere in the Red Lake area, and contain several gold-in-quartz vein type historical showings, including limited historical drilling.  The best results consist of generally less than 1 metre wide veins assaying up to approximately 20 – 25 g/t gold, described in historical reports (e.g. Flint Rock Mines Ltd., assessment files, Resident Geologist's office, Red Lake . Fyon, A. J. and O'Donnell, L. 1986, O.G.S. M.P. 132, p. 269, 270, 274).

Great Bear can acquire a 100%, royalty-free interest in the RLN property through an option agreement with Perry English , Gravel Ridge Resources Ltd., and 1544230 Ontario Inc. (a company controlled by Perry English ), whereby Great Bear will pay a total of $125,000 over a period of four years, and issue 10,000 shares to the vendors.  The agreement and the issuance of the shares are subject to TSX-V approval.

About the Dixie Project

The Dixie Project is 100% owned, comprised of 9,140 hectares of contiguous claims that extend over 22 kilometres, and is located approximately 25 kilometres southeast of the town of Red Lake, Ontario . The project is accessible year-round via a 15 minute drive on a paved highway which runs the length of the northern claim boundary and a network of well-maintained logging roads.

The Dixie Project hosts two principal styles of gold mineralization:

• High-grade gold in quartz veins and silica-sulphide replacement zones ( Dixie Limb , Hinge and Arrow zones) . Hosted by mafic volcanic rocks and localized near regional-scale D2 fold axes. These mineralization styles are also typical of the significant mined deposits of the Red Lake district.
  
  
• High-grade disseminated gold with broad moderate to lower grade envelopes (LP Fault). The LP Fault is a significant gold-hosting structure which has been seismically imaged to extend to 14 kilometres depth (Zeng and Calvert , 2006), and has been interpreted by Great Bear to have up to 18 kilometres of strike length on the Dixie property. High-grade gold mineralization is controlled by structural and geological contacts, and moderate to lower-grade disseminated gold surrounds and flanks the high-grade intervals. The dominant gold-hosting stratigraphy consists of felsic sediments and volcanic units.
