(the \"Company\" or \"ReconAfrica\") (TSXV: RECO) (OTCQX: RECAF) (\n \n Frankfurt\n \n : 0XD) provides an operational update including the planned acquisition of the first Enhanced Full Tensor Gravity (\"eFTG\") survey conducted in\n \n Namibia\n \n .\n \n \n \n Operational Update\n \n \n \n On\n \n June 28, 2022\n \n , ReconAfrica engaged a leading airborne geophysical survey provider to conduct an eFTG survey over an area of nearly 2,200 square kilometers (540,000 acres) in ReconAfrica's 25,000 square kilometers (6.3 million acres) PEL073 exploration license in north-eastern\n \n Namibia\n \n . The eFTG is the advanced high resolution airborne gravity survey which specifically allows earth scientists to identify changes in sub-surface rock density with the goal of highlighting stratigraphic or structurally controlled hydrocarbon traps. More specifically, this relatively new technology is a sophisticated application of gravity techniques that not only adds three-dimensional detail to subsurface gravity images but is also capable of differentiating the geometry at different litho-stratigraphic levels (layers of rock) below the Earth's surface.\n \n \n After recently making significant progress in scheduling and permitting of acquisition of this data, the Company is advised that it will be completed by\n \n late-January 2023\n \n . Our initial interpretation will follow shortly thereafter.\n \n \n When calibrated by existing 2D seismic data, the eFTG imaging greatly enhances ReconAfrica's capacity to extrapolate structural geometry in three dimensions. As a result of the excellent performance of our geophysical acquisition team and lead contractor, Polaris Natural Resource Development, we are ahead of schedule on the Phase 2 extension 2D seismic program and are currently acqui...
