Vancouver, British Columbia – TheNewswire – April 4, 2024 – Leocor Gold Inc. (the “Company” or “Leocor“) (CSE: LECR, OTCQB: LECRF) is pleased to announce plans for summer exploration programs at its Baie Verte project, which comprises both the Dorset Gold Project, and the Copper Creek project, among others, located in north central Newfoundland, Canada.
The Company is targeting its Baie Verte holdings with multiple drill programs this summer. The scope and details (drill type, meterage, exact locations) are currently under discussion and will be released upon finalization in the coming weeks.
The Dorset Gold Project is already established as containing several known gold zones, and presents additional, highly prospective exploration targets. The 2024 program will be designed to test priority zones within a prominent 1 x 2 km gold-in-soil anomaly delineated by Leocor in 2022. Copper Creek is a copper target with compelling historical results. The Company is eager to begin detailed prospecting within areas of interest and systematically testing known zones of copper mineralization.
Dorset Gold Project
Located south of the Pine Cove Gold Mine, Dorset features multiple zones of high-grade gold mineralization. The Company completed a Rotary Air Blast (“RAB”) drill program in late 2022 that tested six different target areas for gold and/or copper mineralization with 18 drill holes. The program was designed to follow up on previously announced soil and GT (GroundTruth Exploration) Probe results.
Highlights from the 2022 RAB program include*:
-
Sharpie Ridge Target: 2.32 grams-per-tonne (“g/t”) gold (“Au”) over 10.67m; including 10.2 g/t Au over 1.52m. New target that is open along strike and at depth.
-
Braz NE Target: 3.18 g/t Au over 4.57m from surface. New target that is open along strike and at depth.
-
Dorset Main Target: 1.41 g/t over 7.62m. Confirming geometry of the mineralized zone.
* See Leocor News Release dated December 1, 2022.
The Dorset project is highly prospective for additional high-grade gold zones and the 2024 program will be designed to test some of the priority zones within a prominent 1 x 2 km gold-in-soil anomaly delineated by Leocor in 2022.

Copper Creek Claims
The Copper Creek portion of the Baie Verte Project has had little copper-focused work completed over the past few years and provides excellent exploration potential. In 2021 the Company completed exploration work at Dorset and Copper Creek that included soil sampling, GT Probe sampling, geophysics, LiDAR and high-resolution drive imagery surveys*. Highlights of the program include:
-
Multiple targets identified along 7km northeast trending zone of anomalous gold in soils and a 4km subparallel trend of anomalous copper (+/- gold) in soils with results up to 1601 ppb gold (“Au”) and 2862 ppm copper (“Cu”).
-
Indications of two styes of mineralization on the project including VMS style copper (+/-gold-zinc) mineralization and structurally controlled gold mineralization with similarities to the nearby Pine Cover Mine.
Shawn Ryan, Leocor’s Technical Advisor, said at the time, “Here we have an area that has seen a lot of previous exploration work, from gold to base metal and the detailed 2021 soil program outlined a brand new 6.5 Km mineralized gold trend that has not been previous seen. And the soil work also outlined a nice base metal Copper-Zinc target measuring 1200m by 400m sitting directly across from the old Terra Nova base metal deposit. Having one of these anomalies is impressive but having two is exceptional.”
* See Leocor News Release dated May 19, 2022.
Historic results* at Copper Creek includes grab sample values of 1019 – 9414 ppm Cu and assays of up to 4.4% Cu while channel sampling yielded assays of up to 0.85% Cu over 2m (Dunsworth, 2004).
Channel sampling, by Anaconda, returned assays of up to 0.196% Cu over/2 m (Dunsworth, 2004). However, further southwestward extension of the T5 site, by Chan, in 2007 (via a 2×14 m trench) revealed a notable increase in sulphide content and grades; samples from a 1 m wide subzone of semi-massive to massive sulphide (60-70% pyrite) returned several assays in the range of 1.46% – 7.1% Cu.
Prospecting performed in 2015, along the access road, trending 100-300 m NW of the T5 site, resulted in the discovery of several roadside ditch exposures of chalcopyrite mineralized, sheared/chloritized, gabbro to micro gabbro, which returned sample assays of 1.3% & 3.22% Cu as well as several values in the range of 1760 – 9770 ppm Cu. Soil sampling, also carried out in 2015 – involving several 100-200 m-spaced sample lines emplaced across the general strike of the above mineralized chlorite and chlorite-sericite- quartz schist zones – returned consistently anomalous Cu results of 100-762 ppm. Three closely spaced soil samples taken over the T5 site (prior to the 2004 trenching) returned Cu assays of 237 ppm, 522 ppm & 586 ppm Cu.

About Leocor’s Baie Verte Project
The Baie Verte Peninsula represents one of the more productive and historical gold and base metal mining districts in Canada. The former Terra Nova base metal mine – one of several copper mines of the region, which operated during the late 1880’s to early 1900’s – lies 200 meters west of Leocor’s Copper Creek claims. Former gold mining operations in the area include the Goldenville mine (of 1903-1906), located 8 km NE of the property, and the more recent Nugget Pond mine (1997-2000) of the eastern Baie Verte Peninsula area. Currently producing mines in the area include the Rambler base metal-gold mine (1961-present), located 14 km ESE of Baie Verte, and the Pine Cove and Stogertite mines (collectively, 2011-present) located 1.6 km and 5.4 km NE of the current property.
The Baie Verte project combines the Dorset, Dorset Extension, Five Mile Brook and Copper Creek projects consisting of fourteen mineral licenses, totalling 80 claims, and covering 1995 hectares (19.95 square km).
The Dorset Gold Project is a 275-ha gold exploration project, located south of the Pine Cove Gold Mine, and features multiple zones of high-grade gold mineralization. The Main Dorset Zone includes three historic showings, referred to as Dorset 1, 2 and 3 Showings. High-grade grab samples from Dorset 1 returned 407.9, 349.2, 147.1, 143.9, 138.2, 108 g/t Au, among others. Grab samples from Dorset 2 returned 167.0, 96.12, 84.3, 49.7, 23.8,4.33 and 1.33 g/t Au (MacDougall and Walker, 1988).
Historic select sampling at the Braz Zone returned values of 314 g/t Au, 40 g/t Au, 31.4 g/t Au, 21.2 g/t Au, 19.2 g/t Au, and 14.8 g/t Au. Historic channel sampling across the vein returned 9.5 g/t Au over 0.4m, 5.7 g/t Au over 0.5m and 1.2 g/t Au over 0.65m. Weighted averages of historic rock sampling encompassing vein and mineralized wall rock returned values of 5.8 g/t Au over 1.9m, 3.1 g/t Au over 2m and 2.5 g/t Au over 1.5m (MacDougall, 1990).
Copper Creek (1,025-ha) hosts several gold prospects and copper occurrences associated with extensive alteration/shear zones developed within a thrust-faulted sequence of quartz-Fe-carbonate-fuchsite-altered gabbros, ultramafics and mafic volcanics, of the Advocate (ophiolite) Complex, and intermediate to silicic volcaniclastics & tuffs and micro gabbroic dykes/sills, of the Flatwater Pond (cover sequence) Group.
Five Mile Brook (350-ha) has been subject to minimal exploration in the past but shows potentially important geological continuity to the Company’s Dorset Gold Project, which lies directly contiguous to the northern boundary.

As global efforts to combat climate change intensify, the adoption of clean energy has become a central goal in national energy policies. Against this backdrop, the emergence of blockchain technology has brought unprecedented changes to the energy trading market, particularly in the renewable energy sector. Blockchain’s decentralized, transparent, and secure nature has significantly advanced the development of this market. The SPUSDT platform leverages the combination of blockchain technology and the USDT stablecoin to usher in a new era of sustainable energy trading.
In recent years, blockchain technology has gradually expanded from the financial sector into other industries, with the energy sector benefiting greatly. Traditional energy markets often rely on centralized trading models, where power producers and consumers must transact through intermediaries, which increases costs and reduces efficiency. Blockchain technology simplifies or eliminates these intermediaries through decentralized distributed ledgers, empowering market participants to engage in peer-to-peer transactions. In this context, the launch of the SPUSDT platform represents a deep integration of blockchain and energy, bringing innovative solutions to the renewable energy market.
How Blockchain Transforms Renewable Energy Trading
The most significant change blockchain brings to renewable energy trading is its transparency and immutability. Through blockchain technology, the SPUSDT platform ensures that all energy transactions are recorded on-chain, and this data is publicly transparent, allowing any user to review transaction records. This transparency not only enhances trust in the market but also reduces fraudulent activities. In traditional energy trading, information asymmetry has long plagued the market, with trust issues between producers and consumers leading to inefficient transactions. With blockchain, SPUSDT guarantees that all transaction information is made public, safeguarding the interests of all parties involved.
In addition to transparency, blockchain’s decentralized nature opens up new possibilities for the renewable energy market. Traditional power markets are dominated by large power companies, with complex and costly trading processes. For small and medium-sized energy producers, especially households and small businesses that install solar panels, entering the market has been challenging. However, through the SPUSDT platform, blockchain’s decentralized architecture enables any energy producer to easily access the market and directly connect with consumers. Whether it’s household users selling excess solar power or businesses purchasing clean energy, SPUSDT provides a convenient and efficient trading channel. This decentralized trading model not only lowers transaction costs but also increases market liquidity and participation.
Smart Contracts Enable Automated Trading
Another major advantage of blockchain is the application of smart contract technology, which ensures the automation of energy trading. In traditional energy transactions, the process is often cumbersome, involving multiple parties in negotiations, contract signing, payment, and settlement. Through the SPUSDT platform, smart contracts automatically execute the trading process. Once the conditions of a transaction are met, the smart contract finalizes the settlement without human intervention. For example, when a solar energy producer sells electricity through the SPUSDT platform, the smart contract automatically adjusts the transaction price based on real-time electricity generation and preset conditions, and releases the payment as soon as the electricity is delivered. This automated process reduces transaction complexity and improves security and efficiency.
The application of smart contracts also eliminates trust issues in transactions. By relying on pre-programmed smart contracts, both parties can trust the blockchain code to execute the transaction, reducing the risk of human manipulation. For instance, if the energy producer fails to deliver the agreed-upon electricity on time, the smart contract automatically adjusts the transaction outcome, ensuring the consumer’s rights are protected. This trustless mechanism significantly enhances transaction security, reduces the risk of default, and attracts more market participants.
Blockchain Technology Promotes Traceability in Energy Markets
Traceability is another key issue in energy markets, especially in renewable energy trading, where verifying the origin of energy is a priority for many businesses and consumers. Through the SPUSDT platform, blockchain technology provides an ideal solution for tracking renewable energy. Every energy transaction is recorded on the blockchain, from production to final consumption, making it fully traceable. This transparent record system allows consumers to confirm whether the electricity they purchase comes from renewable sources, helping them make more environmentally conscious choices. For companies with carbon neutrality goals, this traceability is particularly important, providing reliable evidence that verifies their use of clean energy and enhancing their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance.
At the same time, blockchain traceability provides additional assurance for regulation and compliance in energy markets. In traditional energy markets, data is often fragmented and difficult to access, making it challenging for regulators to monitor real-time market activities, which can lead to non-compliance issues. Through blockchain technology, all transaction data on the SPUSDT platform can be monitored in real time, ensuring market transparency. This transparency not only improves compliance but also provides regulators with effective tools for market oversight, ensuring the legality and fairness of energy trading.
Blockchain technology is rapidly transforming the global energy market, particularly in the renewable energy sector. Decentralization, transparency, automation, and traceability—core features of blockchain—are critical to the widespread adoption and development of renewable energy. The SPUSDT platform leverages these technological advantages to lead the global sustainable energy trading revolution. By combining blockchain with the USDT stablecoin, SPUSDT not only provides a high-efficiency, secure, and transparent environment for solar energy trading but also drives the decentralization and democratization of energy markets. As blockchain technology continues to evolve and energy markets undergo further reforms, the SPUSDT platform is poised to become a central force in advancing global renewable energy, contributing to the green transformation of the world’s energy markets.
