GTA Gta Resources And Mining Inc.

GTA Resources and Mining Inc. (TSX VENTURE:GTA) reports results from its
recently completed drill program on the Northshore Property. The property is
located 4 km. south of Schreiber, Ontario and is situated within the western
portion of the Hemlo - Schreiber Greenstone Belt. The latest drill program was
completed in late October 2013, and consisted of five holes totaling 853 metres.
Two of these holes tested the Afric Gold Zone and were highlighted by a high
grade interval of 9.47 grams/tonne (g/t) gold over 9.0 metres (m) hosted within
a 201 m wide zone of anomalous gold returning a length weight average grade of
0.73 g/t gold in drill hole WB-13-51.


The initial three holes, WB-13-48, WB-13-49 and WB-13-50 were drilled to further
evaluate the recently identified Gino Vein (see press release dated July 18,
2013). This high grade gold vein system is located in an area of sparse
drilling, approximately 250 m north of the main Afric Zone and 100 m south of
the historical workings at the Northshore Mine. All three holes successfully cut
the steeply dipping east-west trending quartz-carbonate vein system returning
high-grade intercepts of 46.4 g/t gold over a 1.0 m, 41.6 g/t gold over 1.0 m
and 6.38 g/t gold over 2.0 m. All intercepts occur at vertical depths of less
than 125 metres.


A summary of the results from holes WB-13-48 to WB-13-52 is as follows:

Note - Reported drill intercepts are core lengths and not true widths. At   
this time there is insufficient data to calculate true orientations. None of
the reported broader intercepts required capping based on the previously    
established capping parameters for the Northshore Property.

The Northshore Property is subject to an option agreement with Balmoral
Resources Ltd., whereby GTA can earn an initial 51%. GTA has made all of the
share and cash payments and GTA fully expects to earn a 51% vested interest in
early 2014. GTA can then elect to earn up to a 70% interest in the Northshore by
making an additional cash payment of $ 100,000, issuing 1,000,000 shares, and
incurring additional exploration expenditures of at least $ 3.0 million by
September 2016.


Since optioning Northshore in September, 2011, GTA has completed 11,390 metres
of diamond drilling (52 holes) and has outlining the Afric Zone as a 500 x 350
meter porphyry style gold system, tested to a depth of 350 metres vertically
from surface, and remaining open at depth and to the northeast. The recent
drilling has concentrated on developing a higher grade core within the larger
system. Additionally the newly discovered Gino Vein represents a narrow high
grade opportunity.


QA/QC: The planning, execution and monitoring of GTA's exploration programs on
the Northshore Project are under the supervision of Robert (Bob) Duess, P. Geo.
(Ontario), VP Exploration of GTA. Mr. Duess is a qualified person as defined by

Mr. Duess has supervised the work programs on the Northshore Property,
supervised the collection of the samples and drill core described herein and
reviewed the assays and QA/QC data. Mr. Duess has also reviewed and approved
this release.
