CEO Greg McCunn stated that the company aims to monetize Reedy Creek to fund increased activity in Papua New Guinea, where drilling is set to commence at the Kesar Creek Project, adjacent to K92 Mining.

Great Pacific Gold Corp. (TSXV: GPAC) (OTCQX: FSXLF) has announced high-grade Phase 2 soil sampling results and a focused drilling program at its Kesar Project in Papua New Guinea. The project, contiguous with K92 Mining's tenements, has shown promising results, including soil samples assaying 47.6 g/t Au and 35.7 g/t Au, and rock samples of 94.3 g/t Au and 56.5 g/t Au. GPAC plans to commence a Phase 1 diamond drill program in October, targeting high-grade epithermal vein style gold-copper mineralization with 2,000 to 3,000 meters of planned drilling using two diamond drill rigs for two months.

Great Pacific Gold Corp. (TSXV: GPAC) (OTCQX: FSXLF) has announced a focused exploration strategy for its core projects in Papua New Guinea (PNG) and Victoria, Australia. The company aims to develop gold-copper resources on five key assets:

• Kesar in PNG's Eastern Highlands, adjacent to K92 Mining's tenements
• Arau in PNG's Eastern Highlands, including the Mt. Victor target
• Wild Dog in PNG's East New Britain province
• Lauriston in Victoria, Australia, near Agnico Eagle's Fosterville operations
• Walhalla in Victoria, Australia, including the Pinnacles target

GPAC has completed various exploration activities across these projects and plans to publish NI 43-101 compliant technical reports for Lauriston and Walhalla. The company is also evaluating options for its non-core Australian assets.

Great Pacific Gold Corp. (GPAC) has completed Phase 2 sampling at the Kesar Creek Project in Papua New Guinea. The program collected 667 soil samples and 8 rock chip samples. Kesar Creek is located near multiple epithermal vein and porphyry deposits, adjacent to K92 Mining Inc.'s project. Previous GPAC sampling revealed high-grade gold results aligning with K92's Kora Deposit, which has 2.3M oz at 10.24 g/t Au equivalent (M&I) and 3.9M oz at 8.6 g/t Au equivalent (Inferred).

The Phase 1 program yielded high-grade assays, including 244 g/t Au from underground workings and 116 g/t Au from outcrop. GPAC's COO, Rex Motton, expressed optimism about future results and plans for additional work, including trenching of key areas.

Great Pacific Gold Corp. (TSXV: GPAC) (OTCQX: FSXLF) has appointed Greg McCunn as CEO and director, effective August 1, 2024. McCunn, a Professional Engineer with over 30 years of experience in mining, has led multiple junior mining companies and raised over $600 million in financing.

Great Pacific Gold Corp. (GPAC) has commenced drilling at its Arau Project in Papua New Guinea. The company has completed road rehabilitation and constructed nine drill pads. A reverse circulation (RC) drill rig has been mobilized to the site, marking GPAC's first drilling on its PNG projects. Concurrently, GPAC is preparing the Kesar Creek Project for a drilling program, with an ongoing phase 2 soil program nearing completion. The company has also started road rehabilitation work at the formerly producing Wild Dog Project in East New Britain Province.

The Arau Project includes the Mt. Victor Prospect, where previous drilling found a multiple phase intrusion complex hosting copper and gold mineralization. GPAC plans to drill approximately 2000 meters to confirm copper-gold porphyry mineralization. Additionally, an extensive soil sampling program of 377 samples has been completed in the southern exploration licence, EL2715, with assays expected in the coming weeks.

Great Pacific Gold Corp. (TSXV: GPAC, OTCQX: FSXLF) has provided an update on its gold-copper projects in Papua New Guinea, covering approximately 2500 sq km. Key developments include:

Arau Project: Located in the Kainantu region, the Arau Project, which includes the Mt. Victor Prospect, is preparing for a 2000-meter reverse circulation drilling program starting in early July. Recent activities include road access rehabilitation and soil sampling in the southern exploration area, EL2715.

Kesar Creek Project: Situated next to K92 Mining Inc.’s tenements, the project has returned high-grade assays from rock chip and soil sampling, with notable results such as 244 g/t Au. The company is tightening its soil program and preparing for the initial drilling phase.

Wild Dog Project: Located on New Britain Island, the project involves two exploration licenses, with EL 2516 granted in April 2024. Environmental assessments and road rehabilitation work are underway, which are important for local access and the exploration program.

Great Pacific Gold has announced promising high-grade gold assays from its recent drilling at the Comet discovery within the Lauriston Gold Project in Victoria, Australia. Key results include a 4m intersection at 22.3 g/t gold from 101.9m in drill hole CDH10. Additional deep high-grade intervals were found, including 0.35m at 55.6 g/t gold from 130.4m in CDH09. These findings highlight the significant potential of the Comet system. The drill results indicate stacked zones of mineralization, with geological structures suggesting further exploration potential. The assays cover nine diamond drill holes totaling 1,380m and include a variety of high-grade gold intervals, showcasing the promising nature of this discovery.
