The Company notes the outcome for Resolution 2 and recognises
the differing interpretations of the benefits of Non-Executive
Directors holding options and believes there are benefits for wider
shareholder alignment vis-à-vis its potential to impact the
perception of independence.
The growth of Greatland in recent years has been substantial and
its success has been supported by the contribution of an
experienced Board and executive management team. The Company's view
is that a strong Board and executive team is essential for
Greatland's continued success, particularly as it moves through
development and into maiden production of its flagship asset.
Greatland would like to reiterate that the Board considers all
the Non-Executive Directors to be independent in judgement and
character. In demonstrating its commitment to continued strong
corporate governance, in September 2021 the Board recognised the
need to strengthen its independence by appointing Paul Hallam as a
Non-Executive Director of the Company, which increased the ratio of
Board independence from 50% to 75%. Furthermore, the Board
recognises the value of good governance and complies with the
guidelines contained in the QCA Corporate Governance Code and is
undertaking a search for additional high quality Non-Executive
Directors.

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.
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 maiden
Pre-Feasibility Study released on the South-East crescent on 12
October 2021. Construction of the box cut and decline to develop
the Havieron deposit commenced in February 2021.
Greatland has a proven track record of discovery and exploration
success. It is pursuing the next generation of tier-one mineral
deposits by applying advanced exploration techniques in
under-explored regions. The Company is focused on safe, low-risk
jurisdictions and is strategically positioned in the highly
prospective Paterson region. Greatland has a total six projects
across Australia with a focus on becoming a multi-commodity mining
company of significant scale.
