NEW FOUND ANNOUNCES INITIATION OF MAIDEN RESOURCE AND
PRELIMINARY ECONOMIC ASSESSMENT FOR THE QUEENSWAY PROJECT

 

Vancouver, BC, November 6, 2024 - New Found Gold Corp. (“New Found” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: NFG, NYSE-A: NFGC) is pleased to announce initiation of work towards a maiden resource estimate and preliminary economic assessment (“PEA”) for the Queensway Project (“Queensway” or the “Project”), which comprises a 1,756 km2 area, accessible via the Trans-Canada Highway, 15km west of Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador.

 

Highlights:

 

The Company has engaged SLR Consulting (“SLR”) to deliver a maiden resource estimate and PEA, with an anticipated completion date of Q2 2025. The appointment of SLR to deliver a maiden resource and PEA is an important milestone for the Project as it will provide the first assessment of mineral inventory and project economics, including cash flows, NPV, IRR, and payback period.

 

SLR, including its Mining Advisory Group (formerly Roscoe Postle Associates Inc.), is a leader in Mineral Resource estimation and mining project advisory with extensive experience in estimating gold mineralized systems with recent involvement with projects on the island of Newfoundland, including producing mineral resource estimates, mining studies and National Instrument 43-101 technical reports. SLR’s mining advisory services include geological, mining, metallurgical, tailings, and environmental consulting.

 

The goals of the resource estimate and PEA are to identify possible project development scenarios and demonstrate the financial potential for the Project. In addition, the PEA will define work programs that will allow the Company to advance the Project.

 

Ron Hampton, Chief Development Officer of New Found, stated: “We are excited to initiate this study work that will be invaluable to defining our strategic development pathway. We believe the resource estimate and PEA is an important step in understanding the value potential of the Project and will provide the Company with a clear path forward to continue advancing Queensway.”

Forward-Looking Statement Cautions

 

This press release contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation, relating to the maiden resource estimate and PEA for the Project; the goals and benefits of the resource estimate and PEA; the timing of the resource estimate and PEA; exploration, drilling and mineralization on the Project; the extent of mineralization and the discovery of zones of high-grade gold mineralization; plans for future exploration and drilling and the timing of same; the merits of the Queensway project; and funding of the drilling program. 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 Company’s ability to complete the maiden resource estimate and PEA, the results and timing of the maiden mineral resource estimate and PEA, 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 exploration, drilling and assay results, 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. The reader is urged to refer to the Company's Annual Information Form and Management’s discussion and Analysis, publicly available through the Canadian Securities Administrators’ System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR+) at www.sedarplus.ca for a more complete discussion of such risk factors and their potential effects.
