Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 1, 2024) - Exploits Discovery Corp. (CSE: NFLD) (OTCQB: NFLDF) (FSE: 634) ("Exploits" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has engaged HiSeis, an industry leader in hard rock seismic surveys, for the interpretation of the seismic dataset on its Bullseye gold property in Central Newfoundland. This data was provided by the Company's neighbour, New Found Gold Corp. ("NFG"), in March 2024 in exchange for permissions to extend their survey lines through the Bullseye claims. NFG's aggressive 3D seismic survey covered 47km2 of its Queensway North project area that straddles the Appleton structural zone where seven high-grade gold discoveries have been announced over the past 16 months. The Company anticipates the seismic interpretation will be completed by this summer.
Ron Schop, CEO of HiSeis, stated, "We are excited to be working with Exploits at its Bullseye property, with the goal to extract maximum value from the 2D and 3D seismic data that we acquired last year. Seismic is the only geophysical method today that can effectively produce subsurface data at the scale required to understand the deeper structures that drive mineralization in proximity to the Appleton fault. We will be using our EpiCentre platform to combine all the common datasets and efficiently and effectively interact with the talented exploration team at Exploits."
Jeff Swinoga, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Engaging the same reputable consultants as NFG underscores our commitment to leveraging top-tier expertise. The seismic data holds promise in revealing potential deep-seated structures beneath our Bullseye gold property that may have the potential to host localized high-grade gold mineralization. HiSeis is in the process of incorporating all relevant geophysical information as well as the geological and assay data generated from over 13,000 metres of diamond drilling data completed at Bullseye since 2023. The forthcoming interpretation will be valuable in designing drill programs for greater exploration success at depth within the four target areas recently announced at Bullseye. We will also continue to refine our search for high grade gold mineralization at our large Gazeebow South property further north along the Appleton Fault Zone."
