Group Eleven Intersects 8.7m of 23.9% Zn+Pb and 85 g/t Ag; Expands Zinc-Rich Massive Sulphide Zone at Ballywire

Vancouver, November 14, 2024 - Group Eleven Resources Corp. (TSXV: ZNG) (OTC Pink: GRLVF) (FSE: 3GE) ("Group Eleven" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results from latest five step-out holes of the 2024 drill program at the Company's 100%-owned Ballywire zinc-lead-silver discovery ("Ballywire"), PG West Project ("PG West"), Republic of Ireland.

Highlights:

• G11-3552-19 intersected (from 194.5m):
  • 15.3m of 14.5% Zn+Pb (11.4% Zn and 3.1% Pb) and 56 g/t Ag, including
  • 8.7m of 23.9% Zn+Pb (18.8% Zn and 5.1% Pb) and 85 g/t Ag, including
  • 3.4m of 32.6% Zn+Pb (24.9% Zn and 7.7% Pb) and 88 g/t Ag
  • Located 50m NNW from G11-3552-17 (released 24-Sep-2024)

  • Located 260m SW of above holes, 50m NNW from G11-3552-18 (released 22-Oct-2024)
• Above holes add at least 50-100m to the lateral (up and down dip) extent of the recently announced flat-lying zone of zinc-rich massive sulphide lenses at the base of the Waulsortian Limestone, with the zone extending for at least 360m along strike and remaining open
• Massive sulphide zone is pierced by the above intercepts and four previously released holes:
  • G11-3552-12: 29.6m of 10.6% Zn+Pb and 78 g/t Ag (released 11-Jun-24)

  • G11-3552-17: 4.2m of 15.2% Zn+Pb and 34 g/t Ag (released 24-Sep-24)
  • G11-3552-18: 11.8m of 11.6% Zn+Pb and 48 g/t Ag (released 22-Oct-24)
• Two-rig drill program at Ballywire continues with the next assay results expected in due course

"It is exciting to announce G11-3552-19 today as it represents the best hole drilled to date at Ballywire in terms of zinc-dominant massive sulphide," stated Bart Jaworski, CEO. "The hole intersected an interpreted true width of 8.7m of continuous massive sulphide grading an impressive 24% Zn+Pb - and at a relatively shallow depth of 200m. Altogether, today's results significantly expand the emerging flat-lying, zinc-rich massive sulphide zone at Ballywire to at least 360m along strike and 100-150m along dip. The massive sulphide zone is open and appears to be strengthening to the northeast, towards shallowing stratigraphy. Ongoing drilling is testing this area with two rigs. We look forward to providing further results as we continue our step-out drilling within the 2.6km corridor of robust mineralization drilled thus far and along our broader 6km long prospective trend."

Recent Holes from 2024 Drill Campaign at Ballywire Discovery

The Ballywire prospect at the Company's 100%-owned PG West Project in Republic of Ireland, is a new zinc-lead-silver discovery (first announced Sept-2022). In addition to 37 holes drilled and reported by Group Eleven to date, the most recent five step-out holes (G11-3552-19 to -23) of the 2024 program are reported today (see Exhibits 1 to 6).

High-grade mineralization from G11-3552-19, -20 and -21 consists predominantly of massive and semi-massive sulphide (sphalerite, galena, pyrite, chalcopyrite and suspected tennantite-tetrahedrite), as well as, disseminated and vein hosted sulphide mineralization. Mineralization occurs along and/or close to the base of the Waulsortian Limestone (see Exhibit 1 and 2).

Overall, recent drilling suggests the emergence of two distinct styles of mineralization. First, relatively flat-lying zinc-rich massive sulphide lenses and second, 'other mineralization', dominated by variably dipping massive sulphides, as well as, vein-hosted and disseminated mineralization (see Exhibits 1-3). Both styles occur at or near the base of the Waulsortian Limestone and offer great exploration opportunities as drilling progresses.

Exhibit 5. Summary of Assays from G11-3552-19 at Ballywire

Note: True width of the overall mineralized package in all holes above is estimated at approx. 90-100% of the intersected interval; G11-3552-19 hosts continuous zinc-rich massive sulphide over 8.7m starting from 199.69m

Exhibit 6. Summary of Assays from G11-3552-20 to -23 at Ballywire

Note: True width of the overall mineralized package in all holes above is estimated at approx. 90-100% of the intersected interval; G11-3552-19 hosts continuous zinc-rich massive sulphide over 8.7m starting from 199.69m

Looking forward, two drill holes (G11-3552-24 and -25; see Exhibit 4) are in progress with results expected in due course. Exhibit 4 shows drilling to date across 1.25km of the overall 2.6km long trend (see Exhibit 3) of significantly mineralized drill intercepts (open in all directions). A photo of the 8.7m interval of massive sulphide in G11-3552-19 will be put on Group Eleven's website (www.groupelevenresources.com).

Notes to Exhibit 8: (a) Pallas Green MRE is owned by Glencore (see Glencore's Resources and Reserves Report dated December 31, 2023); (b) Stonepark MRE: see the 'NI 43-101 Independent Report on the Zinc-Lead Exploration Project at Stonepark, County Limerick, Ireland', by Gordon, Kelly and van Lente, with an effective date of April 26, 2018, as found on SEDAR; and (c) the historic estimate at Denison was reported by Westland Exploration Limited in 'Report on Prospecting Licence 464' by Dermot Hughes dated May, 1988; the historic estimate at Gortdrum was reported in 'The Geology and Genesis of the Gortdrum Cu-Ag-Hg Orebody' by G.M. Steed dated 1986; and the historic estimate at Tullacondra was first reported by Munster Base Metals Ltd in 'Report on Mallow Property' by David Wilbur, dated December 1973; and later summarized in 'Cu-Ag Mineralization at Tullacondra, Mallow, Co. Cork' by Wilbur and Carter in 1986; the above three historic estimates have not been verified as current mineral resources; none of the key assumptions, parameters and methods used to prepare the historic estimates were reported and no resource categories were used; significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimates can be verified and upgraded to be compliant with current NI 43-101 standards; a Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify them as a current mineral resource and the Company is not treating the historic estimates as current mineral resources. 'Rathdowney Trend' is the south-westerly projection of the Rathdowney Trend, hosting the historic Lisheen and Galmoy mines.
