New Found Announces Completion of 3-D Seismic Survey

New Found Gold Corp. (“New Found” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: NFG, NYSE-A: NFGC) is pleased to announce the successful completion of its 3-D seismic survey on its Queensway Project. New Found’s 100%-owned Queensway project comprises a 1,662km2 area, accessible via the Trans-Canada Highway, 15km west of Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador.

Highlights

  • The acquisition phase of the 3-D seismic survey, which was initially announced on March 7, 2023 and began on June 26, 2023, is now complete. The survey was finished on schedule and on budget.
  • The survey was conducted by HiSeis, an industry leader in hard rock seismic surveys, utilizing approximately 20,000 energy source points spaced at 12.5m intervals along 260km of source lines, as well as approximately 25,000 geophone receiver stations, generating 3-D seismic data across a 47km2 grid.
  • Source lines were spaced at 100m intervals and perpendicular receiver lines were constructed at 100m interims to optimize resolution from 200-1,000m in depth, with good resolution penetrating to 3,000m.
  • The final phase of the program consisting of data cleaning, compilation and interpretation is now underway with a targeted completion date of October 2023, while more detailed interpretive work will continue into Q1 2024.
  • Upon receipt of the initial interpretation, the Company intends to generate drill targets for immediate testing in Q4 of 2023.
  • New Found today released a video about the seismic survey that can be viewed by clicking this link.

Greg Matheson, COO of New Found, stated: “The successful completion of the acquisition phase of the 3-D seismic survey is the culmination of nearly two years of planning and will provide us with an industry leading, unparalleled view of the subsurface of Queensway. Through the knowledge gained by 435,000m of drilling, we know that Queensway presents a highly faulted and complex plumbing system that has proven drillhole after drillhole to be host to high-grade gold. This environment is an ideal candidate for 3-D seismic and is expected to aid in identifying the plumbing features of this orogenic system. We anticipate that this product will greatly benefit our interpretation of the geological environment beyond the known mineralized zones and represents a long-term investment into the Queensway Project.”

Although the Company believes that such statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts; they are generally, but not always, identified by the words “expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “interpreted”, “intends”, “estimates”, “projects”, “aims”, “suggests”, “indicate”, “often”, “target”, “future”, “likely”, “pending”, “potential”, “goal”, “objective”, “prospective”, “possibly”, “preliminary”, and similar expressions, or that events or conditions “will”, “would”, “may”, “can”, “could” or “should” occur, or are those statements, which, by their nature, refer to future events. The Company cautions that forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Company's management on the date the statements are made, and they involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Consequently, there can be no assurances that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Except to the extent required by applicable securities laws and the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, the Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements if management's beliefs, estimates or opinions, or other factors, should change. Factors that could cause future results to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements include risks associated with the use and interpretation of the results of the 3-D seismic survey, the final phase of the program, possible accidents and other risks associated with mineral exploration operations, the risk that the Company will encounter unanticipated geological factors, risks associated with the interpretation of assay results and the drilling program, the possibility that the Company may not be able to secure permitting and other governmental clearances necessary to carry out the Company's exploration plans, the risk that the Company will not be able to raise sufficient funds to carry out its business plans, and the risk of political uncertainties and regulatory or legal changes that might interfere with the Company's business and prospects.
