Exploring for Gold and Finding a Long-Lost Second World War Bomber at the Queensway Project
(TSX-V: NFG | NYSE-A: NFGC)

In September of 1943, Gander air base was home to a squadron of B-24 Liberator bombers. The planes were meant to defend the east coast of Canada from U-Boats and other wartime threats. On a routine test flight on September 4, 1943, Wing Commander J.M. Young lost control of the bomber and plunged directly into Gander Lake, where the plane has rested ever since. 

This year, ocean hydrographer Kirk Regular of the Marine Institute was working on the lake for New Found Gold when he decided to look for the B-24. He spoke with CBC's David Newell.
 

All the best,

And look at that!  The stock is up .12 on news that a B-24 was found at the bottom of Gander Lake.  Imagine what it would do to the sp if they put out news that they hit 120 g/t over 4 m at Big Dave.

I would encourage shareholder's to emal the company this is absolutely ridiculous! Really a B24 bomber is of interest to investor's!

It is of interest if we are about to explode to the upside via B24 bomber IKE

  NFG was doing a survey of the lake bottom between Queensway North and Queensway South. Perhaps someone thought it was valuable information to have seeing how the Appleton and JBP Faults extend out beneath Gander Lake. It is possible to mine beneath ponds and lakes in case you were wondering. Finding the WW2 bomber was secondary and not the main goal of the team doing the work. The plane ...more

It is also possible to drill on the lake during the winter with both diamond core and reverse circulation drills.
Comment by Dixiedee on Jul 19, 2022 2:47pm
I believe the winter on the ice is the preferred method on lakes

They have been drilling on lakes for more than 50 years. In Campbell Chibougamau they had a couple of problems when mining, a couple of drill holes had not been properly capped and when mining they occasionally had a hole with hundreds of feet of pressure pouring into the freshly blasted area.

  Unfortunately Gander Lake rarely freezes. It is a very deep lake exceeding 1000 feet in depth in some places. So I don't think drilling out there would be possible. Not even on a barge due to how rough it gets. Lol

A frozen lake with at least 30 inches of ice is a mandatory prerequisite.
Comment by wajac on Jul 19, 2022 7:46pm
Right on mega! I was about to post the same information but you beat me to it. I've lived here over 30 years and it may have frozen over a couple of times and then to a depth that would not support a barge.

Not of interest to investors but very important to the aviation community. This is one of three bombers believed resting on the bottom of Gander Lake. It will be raised to the surface, rerstored and, most likely, put on display here in Gander. Apparently the remains of the three airmen are still on board and will have to be removed and handled, I would think, in accordance with military ...more
