Meeting Overview The meeting featured a presentation by Ian Bliss, President and CEO of Norgenshield Resources, focusing on the exploration process and findings at the Root & Cellar project for 2024. The discussion highlighted the project's potential for gold, silver, tellurium, and copper, along with insights into the challenges and advancements in understanding the geological system. Key Discussion Points - Overview of the Root & Cellar project located on the Burin Peninsula of Newfoundland. - Exploration for epithermal gold, silver, tellurium, and porphyry copper. - Unique aspects of Root & Cellar, including its association with tellurium and its potential as a critical metal investment. - Challenges faced in exploration due to the cryptic nature of the geological systems and lack of prior data. - The model-driven approach to exploration adopted by Northern Shield. - The cumulative effect of small discoveries leading to a robust understanding of the project. - The significance of...
Mr. Bliss has over 20 years experience in the mineral exploration industry having studied geology at the University of New Brunswick.
From 1995 to 2000, Mr. Bliss was an independent consulting geologist responsible for exploration projects for Nuna-Minerals A/S, in Nuuk, Greenland and, in 2000, for Crew Development in Norway. In Greenland, he worked in some of the most remote and rugged terrain using a model driven approach to efficiently explore large tracts of land despite short explorations seasons.
Mr. Bliss implemented a similar approach at Northern Shield to generate nickel projects that subsequently resulted in partnerships and investments with major mining companies including Impala, South 32, Teck. It was under his guidance that Northern Shield became known around the world as a leader in grass roots exploration for Nickel, Copper and the Platinum Group Elements. It was his understanding of geological models that led to Northern Shield acquiring a unique epithermal gold project here in the Burin Peninsula they call Root & Cellar.
Mr. Bliss has served as President of Northern Shield since its inception in 1999.

Speaker 1: Hello everyone. Today I'm joined with Ian Bliss, President and CEO of Norgenshield Resources. Speaker 1: Ian will be providing a brief presentation. Following that we will have a live Q&A, So please feel free to participate by submitting your questions in the bottom right corner of your screen in that chat box. Speaker 1: Also, just to note, this event is being recorded and will be made available for replay Speaker 1: later today. Speaker 1: With that said, Ian, thank you for taking the time out of your day. The floor is yours. Speaker 2: Thank you very much, Kyle. Speaker 2: Good afternoon, everyone. My presentation today is only intended as a very brief summary of the exploration process and findings of 2024 at Root & Cellar and why we believe we are Speaker 2: well poised for success in the next phase of drilling plan for the new year. Speaker 2: As I say, it's just meant to be a brief summary, but just to provide some background, Rooten Cellar is located on the Burin Peninsula of Newfoundland and is being explored for epithermal gold, silver and tellurium, along with porphyry copper. Speaker 2: And it exhibits all the characteristics Speaker 2: of a very large and high-grade epithermal system. Speaker 2: It sits in the Avalon terrain of Newfoundland, which is broadly similar to the Golden Triangle of BC, which takes a lot more attention than its equivalent Speaker 2: in Newfoundland. Speaker 2: But we believe that's shortly going to change. Speaker 2: What sets Smooten Cellular apart is its association with tellurium, a rare critical metal used in solar panels, and which is often found in conjunction with very large epithermal systems and porphyry Copper. Speaker 2: And so that association positions the project as a promising investment opportunity for...
