[{"type":"text","content":" Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 23, 2023) - Emperor Metals Inc. (CSE: AUOZ) (\"Emperor\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to update shareholders on its progress toward drilling at Duquesne West during Q2 of 2023. Highlights: Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) model refinement through the process of consolidating and adjusting historic drilling data. Due diligence on third-party data sets and incorporation of additional geological data into the Block Model to aid phase I drilling. Applied for drilling permits, hired contractors, and released an RFQ for drilling preparation. CEO John Florek commented, \"Emperor is conducting due diligence on third-party data sets as we incorporate additional geological data into our A.I. Block Model. We are at a critical phase in our planning, and a deeper understanding of the controls of mineralization of this deposit is crucial for Q2 targeting.\" The new A.I. model is being refined by reviewing all historical drilling and normalizing the data to develop Emperor's first-ever Duquesne West 3D A.I. aided geological model. Consolidating and adjusting several databases for the preparation for A.I. technology is a rigorous process. The resulting amalgamated database incorporates data from six (6) companies that have conducted exploration drilling on the property since 1987, including Noranda, Santa-Fe, and Kinross. This model contains 102,479 meters of drilling (327 Holes) that, in current dollar terms, represents +/- $30 Million CAD to leverage future exploration drilling. Emperor has developed a strategy to drill along high-grade trends; this approach will target a range of opportunities to expand and improve the quality of the resource. Emperor has applied for drilling permits and has hired several contracting companies to support this project. An RFQ (Request for Quotations) for drilling contractors will be released soon to begin the process of drilling preparation in Q2.
