Notes for Editors:

Greatland Gold plc (AIM:GGP) is a mining development and exploration company with a focus on precious and base metals . The Company's flagship asset is the world-class Havieron gold-copper deposit in the Paterson region of Western Australia, discovered by Greatland and presently under development in Joint Venture with Newcrest Mining Ltd.

Newcrest holds a joint venture interest of 70% (30% Greatland). Newcrest may also acquire an additional 5% joint venture interest and, if exercised, Newcrest will be entitled to an overall joint venture interest of 75% (Greatland 25%).

Havieron is located approximately 45km east of Newcrest's Telfer gold mine and, subject to positive decision to mine, will leverage the existing infrastructure and processing plant to significantly reduce the project's capital expenditure and carbon impact for a low-cost pathway to development.

An extensive growth drilling programme is presently underway at Havieron with a focus to continue to expand our understanding of this world class ore body. Construction of the box cut and decline to develop the Havieron deposit commenced in February 2021.
