Seven Completed Survey Lines Highlight a 1.8-Kilometer Anomaly with Geometry and Intensity Comparable to the Leviathan Discovery

Survey Completed: Approximately 28 line-kilometers of induced polarization ("IP") surveying have now been completed across seven lines at the Hook target, expanding upon a previously announced reconnaissance line which returned exceptionally high chargeability, up to 40 mV/V.

Strong Continuity: The completed survey has now outlined the chargeability feature extending over a strike length of ~1.8 kilometers.

Strongest Response Near Surface: The highest-intensity portion of the anomaly, ranging from 20-40 mV/V, is modelled to begin within approximately 100 meters of
