Toronto, ON, December 8th, 2022 – NEWFOUNDLAND DISCOVERY CORP. (CSE: NEWD, OTC: NEWDF, FSE: M4K-FF) (“Newfoundland Discovery” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that Gitennes Exploration Inc. (“Gitennes”) has commenced a diamond drilling program at the JMW property (“JMW”) in the Chapais-Chibougamau area of Quebec. The Company entered into an option agreement Gitennes on November 3rd, 2022. Details can be found on the announcing and subsequent news releases at the Company’s website.
The diamond drilling program is planned for approximately 1,200 metres in six diamond drill holes and is a follow up on results of the previously completed Induced Polarization (“IP”) geophysical survey and historical work. Three distinct styles of mineralization/targets have been identified on JMW (Figure 2) and thirteen zones of interest from the IP survey are highlighted by chargeability anomalies (See Figure 2 dark lines). Strong anomalies occur in the sedimentary rocks and these rocks are known to host gold deposits and occurrences in the Chapais-Chibougamau area. The planned diamond drill program will target both sedimentary and intrusive rocks.
