ASX ANNOUNCMENT

11 March 2022

Unmarketable Parcel Share Sale Facility

Great Northern Minerals Limited ("Great Northern Minerals" or the "Company") (ASX:GNM) is pleased to announced that it has established a share sale facility (Facility) for small shareholders who hold parcels of fully paid ordinary shares in the Company (Shares) valued at less that A$500 as at 4:00pm (AWST) on Wednesday, 9 March 2022 (Record Date) (Unmarketable Parcel). The Facility is being established in accordance with the Company's constitution and the ASX Listing Rules.

Great Northern Minerals appreciates that Unmarketable Parcels can be difficult or expensive to sell, so the Company is offering the Facility to enable eligible shareholders who hold less than A$500 worth of Shares to sell their Shares without having to act through a broker or pay brokerage or handling fees. The Company will pay all costs associated with the sale and transfer of Shares through the Facility (excluding any tax consequences of the sale, which will be the responsibility of relevant shareholder). A copy of the letter and Share Retention form (Retention Form) being dispatched to eligible shareholders is attached.

The Facility, whilst benefitting small shareholders, will also benefit Great Northern Minerals as it is expected to significantly reduce the administration costs associated with maintaining a large number of small shareholdings on the Company's share register.

Based on the Share price at the close of trading on the Record Date of A$0.006, a holding of 83,333 Shares or less constitutes an Unmarketable Parcel.

Shareholders holding an Unmarketable Parcel who wish to retain their shareholding in the Company

need to give the share registry, Computershare Investor Services Pty Limited, written notice by returning the Retention Form by no later than 2:00pm (AWST) on 29 April 2022 or acquire additional Shares prior to that time such that their holdings comprise a marketable parcel, otherwise their Shares will be sold through the Facility.

Shareholders wishing to take advantage of the Facility and have their Shares sold do not need to

take any action.

Great Northern Minerals has mandated CPS Capital Group Pty Ltd as the broker to facilitate the sale of the Unmarketable Parcels.

Great Northern Minerals will arrange to complete share sale process of Unmarketable Parcels as soon as practicable after the closing date for the Facility of 29 April 2022 and will forward all sale proceeds to participating shareholders as soon as practicable following the settlement.
