April 22, 2020, Vancouver, B.C. – Gold Terra Resource Corp. (TSX-V: YGT; Frankfurt: TX0; OTC Pink: TRXXF) (“Gold Terra” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the results of 10 holes from Sam Otto South (See Map) on its 100% wholly-owned Yellowknife City Gold (“YCG”) project in the Northwest Territories.

This drilling targeted the expansion of the known mineralization in the ‘main zone’ and the new ‘hanging wall zone’ at Sam Otto South. All 10 holes intersected gold mineralization, indicating the potential to add to the current inferred mineral resource dated November 4, 2019 (the “Mineral Resource Estimate”), as detailed in the technical report prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”), available under our profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. To date, Gold Terra has released the assay results of 18 holes from its 36 holes drilled this winter at Sam Otto with assays pending.

Highlights include:

• 1.33 g/t Au over 9.77m and 0.99 g/t Au over 8.24m (TSO20-060)
• 2.50 g/t Au over 5.75m (TSO20-071)
• 1.80 g/t Au over 6.30m (TSO20-067)

President and CEO David Suda stated: “We are confirming the continued expansion of gold mineralized zones at Sam Otto. In addition to expanding known mineralization, we are successfully drilling new zones which bolster our confidence in the possibility of adding gold ounces to the next resource update of Sam Otto.”

The Company has recently concluded its winter drilling program with the completion of two deep holes testing an induced polarization anomaly (from the recently completed geophysical survey) coinciding with the interpreted northern extension of the main structures that host the past producing Con and Giant mines (production of 14 million ounces of gold). All core has been cut, sampled and shipped for assay. The core displays zones of shearing and alteration similar to the Campbell Shear mineralization of the Con mine.

Technical Summary:

The drill holes reported today were following up on holes TSO18-035 (2.16 g/t Au over 27.12m (news release March 9, 2018)) and TSO19-043 (0.77 g/t Au over 14.00m (news release September 9, 2019)) that formed the core area of Sam Otto South. This drilling covered 250m of strike length and 200-250m maximum depth at approximately 50m centers. Results from this area include:

• 1.33 g/t Au over 9.77m and 0.99 g/t Au over 8.24m in TSO20-060
• 1.81 g/t Au over 3.91m and 2.50 g/t Au over 5.75m in TSO20-071

The drill results reported today (Link to table and maps of all results in this release) also extended the hanging wall zone in Sam Otto South over a strike length of 250 metres and it remains open to the north. Prior to the 2020 drilling, Gold Terra had limited results from the hanging zone except for two holes drilled 250m apart which returned intercepts of 2.93 g/t Au over 7.0 m (TSO19-044) and 1.24 g/t Au over 11.0m (TSO19-047(news release September 9, 2019)) respectively. Only a very small portion of the hanging wall zone was included in the Mineral Resource Estimate. The drill results obtained to date have expanded the mineralized zone:

• 1.39 g/t Au over 25.00 in hole TSO20-058 (news release February 24, 2020)
• 1.08 g/t Au over 5.00m in hole TSO20-059
• 1.31 g/t Au over 4.97m in hole TSO20-061
• 0.56 g/t Au over 24.50m in hole TSO20-066
• 1.80 g/t Au over 6.30m in hole TSO20-067

Technical Appendix:

This news release reports the assay results from 10 holes totaling 2,510m from which 2,064 core samples were assayed. Assay results range from non-detectable gold to a highest assay of 6.34 g/t Au. The Company inserts certified standards and blanks into the sample stream as a check on laboratory Quality Control (“QC”). Drill core samples are cut by diamond saw at Gold Terra's core facilities in Yellowknife. A halved core sample is left in the core box. The other half core is sampled and transported by Gold Terra personnel in securely sealed bags to ALS Chemex's (“ALS”) preparation laboratory in Yellowknife. After sample preparation, samples are shipped to ALS's Vancouver facility for gold analysis. Gold assays of >3 g/t are re-assayed on a 30 g split by fire assay with a gravimetric finish. Samples with visible gold are additionally assayed using a screen metallics method. ALS is a certified and accredited laboratory service. ALS routinely inserts certified gold standards, blanks and pulp duplicates, and results of all QC samples are reported.

Drill holes were drilled at right angles to the zones of mineralization and dip angles of holes were designed to intersect the zones as close to normal as possible. Zones reported here are interpreted to be 85-95 percent of true thickness.

The Company announced an inferred mineral resource estimate of 735,000 ounces of gold in November 2019, (News release November 4th 2019). The YCG Project is located in the same archean belt where the former high-grade Con and Giant gold mines have produced over 14 million ounces of gold. The YCG project is located north and south of the city and along the same mineralized district scale as the past producer Con and Giant Mines.
