Kirkland Lake Discoveries Corp. announced the drilling permit for the Goodfish Kirana property has been approved by the Ministry of Northern Development, Mines, Natural Resources and Forestry (NDMNRF) effective June 6, 2023, for three years. In addition, the high-resolution airborne magnetic survey recently undertaken at the Lucky Strike property has been completed.

Data compilation and processing of the survey data is currently underway. The 2,105 line-kilometre survey across the Lucky Strike property was completed in a timely and efficient manner by ALS GoldSpot Discoveries Ltd.'s ("ALS GoldSpot") Geophysical Services division from June 5 to 14, 2023. The survey parameters included a flight-line azimuth of 0deg/180deg and flight-line spacing of 100 m with infill lines complete in selected areas at 50 m spacing.ie lines at 500 m spacing had an azimuth of 090deg/270deg.

This high-resolution survey utilized ALS GoldSpot's M-PASS system, a proprietary platform that has been designed to collect co-referenced triaxial magnetic, Very Low Frequency (VLF) electromagnetic multi-band radiometric, and LiDAR data sets specifically designed to support exploration efforts and Artificial Intelligence ("AI") analyses. Once the data sets are received, the Company will undertake a geophysical and structural interpretation. This interpretation will be incorporated with the current geological understanding and known mineral showings of the Lucky Strike property, using ALS GoldSpot's proprietary AI algorithms. The results of this data analysis will help guide future exploration plans, including follow-up field and drilling activities.
