The Company's exploration plan is designed to support expanded drilling and a more systematic evaluation of the mineralized footprint at the Project, including expanded in-fill drilling to further define the current mineralized footprint and allow for expansion of the known mineralization through extensive step-outs. Provenance CEO and President, Rob Clark, stated, "This marks another important step forward for the Company as we execute on key initiatives to systematically de-risk and advance this high-quality asset."

The Company will continue to file audited annual financial statements (due within 120 days of December 31) and six-month interim financial reports (due within 60 days of June 30).
