GR · Price

Executive Summary

  • Great Atlantic Resources reported new tungsten‑bearing scheelite occurrences at its Flume Ridge claim in southwest New Brunswick, including historic drill intercepts and recent rock sampling results.
  • The company announced the closure of two tranches of its May 1 2025 private placement (flow‑through units and hard‑dollar units), raising a total of $249,875, and confirmed no further shares will be issued for this financing.

Key Details

  • Flume Ridge Claim Overview
  • One of eight 100% owned mineral claims comprising Great Atlantic’s southwest New Brunswick tin‑tungsten property.
  • Historical data (2009) showed two drill holes intersecting 0.608 % W (0.76 % WO₃) over 0.57 m and 0.557 % W (0.70 % WO₃) over 0.65 m.
  • 2009 trenches exposed scheelite‑bearing quartz veins; a 2018 bedrock grab returned 1.58 % W (1.99 % WO₃); a 2020 float boulder sample returned 1.66 % W (2.09 % WO₃).

  • 2025 Rock‑Sample Program

  • Collected 28 rock samples from float boulders, subcrop, outcrops, and historic trench strips during spring‑summer 2025.
  • Preliminary UV‑lamp scans identified scheelite mineralization in several shallow trench samples.
  • Some subcrop/outcrop samples are highly altered (silicified) and contain pyrite sulphide mineralization.
  • Samples have not yet been analyzed; they will be sent to a certified independent lab for gold and multi‑element analysis, including tungsten.
