Exploits Discovery Corp. (CSE: NFLD) (OTCQB: NFLDF) (FSE: 634) is pleased to report its gold assay results from its recent diamond drilling campaign focused on the western flank of the Appleton Fault Zone on its Bullseye property. The Company has received the latest assay data from its first six drill holes. Drill hole #25, north of New Found Gold Corp.’s K2 gold zone discovery, confirmed the presence of gold bearing structures on the west side of the interpreted Glenwood Shear. In addition, the Company is pleased to announce that it has extended the high-grade zone at its Horseshoe gold discovery. Drill hole #30 revealed a gold intercept of 25.36 g/t Au over 1.60 metres from localized veining containing visible gold at a vertical depth of approximately 260 metres below surface, deeper than the previously announced Horseshoe gold zone.
Highlights Include:
Jeff Swinoga, President and CEO, commented, “We are pleased with these new drill results. Not only do the gold assays demonstrate that there is gold mineralization on Bullseye’s west side of the AFZ, but our team was also able to show that the previous high grade gold results at our Horseshoe gold discovery extend at depth with a gold intercept of 25.36 g/t over 1.60 metres. The next set of assay results will be from our follow-up drilling into our Horseshoe and Saddle gold zones, on the eastern side of the Bullseye claims, where we previously announced gold intercepts such as 67.55 g/t over 3.30 metres.”
Jeff further commented, “In addition, we plan on announcing the latest results of our 2024 extensive till sampling program on our large Gazeebow South property this quarter. As at today’s date, the Company has approximately $5 million in cash and is well positioned for 2025 with a strategic land position and supportive shareholders, including Eric Sprott.”
Photo A: Select core photos from drill hole BE-24-030. Visible gold was observed from 382.45 – 383.05m within a section of core displaying quartz veining and the presence of sulphidized stylolites. (*Note that these photos are not intended to be representative of all gold mineralization in BE-24-030).
Figure 1: Plan map of Bullseye property; recent collars from Phase 4 drilling. Drill holes BE-24-025 and 026 were designed to test mineralization associated with the Glenwood Shear. Drill Holes BE-24-027 to 030 were designed to test the presence of mineralized secondary structures that may splay from the western side of the AFZ, as it proceeds through the Bullseye property. Drill hole BE-24-030 was purposefully extended considerably beyond the western side of the AFZ, in order to appraise the deep extension of the cluster of gold mineralization previously encountered in the Horseshoe Zone drilling.

Bullseye Gold Property
The Bullseye claims were staked by Exploits in September 2022 and are contiguous to NFG’s Queensway and Kingsway projects. The Company considers these to be highly prospective because geological interpretation shows they directly overlay a 1,200 by 800 metre segment of the AFZ and its related splay structures.
Quality Assurance – Quality Control
All prospective NQ core is logged and delineated for sampling by an Exploits’ professional geologist. The core is subsequently halved by a diamond-bladed core saw by the Company’s technicians with one half being placed in a bag with a unique sample identification. The remaining half core is retained within the Company’s secure storage facility in Gander, NL. Sample bags are sealed and then shipped directly to Eastern Analytical Ltd. Certified standards and blanks are inserted at defined intervals following the Company’s QA/QC documented procedures, representing approximately 5% of all samples sent for assaying. All core samples are currently analyzed at Eastern Analytical Ltd. of 403 Little Bay Road, Springdale, NL, a commercial laboratory that is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited and completely independent of Exploits. Samples are analyzed using fire assay (30g) with AA finish (Au-FAA 30 ppb process) and/or a four-acid digestion followed by multi-element ICP-OES analysis. All samples with visible gold or assaying above 10.0 g/t Au are further assayed using metallic screen to mitigate the presence of the nugget effect of coarse gold. Metallic screen assays are reported as ‘Weighted Averaged ppb’ directly calculated from the lab.
