April 16, 2015 – Equitas Resources Corp. (TSXv: EQT) (FSE: T6UN) (“Equitas” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on the recently completed VTEM airborne survey at the Garland Project in the Voisey’s Bay area of Labrador, Canada.
Initial inspection of the data acquired during the Geotech Ltd. B-field VTEMsurvey at its Garland Project has identified four distinct areas of anomalous conductivity prospective for nickel-copper sulphide mineralization.
The VTEM data is being further interpreted and refined by Geophysicist Alan King of Geoscience North. Alan is a recognized expert in electromagnetic exploration methods and previously served as the Chief Geophysicist for Vale’s global exploration operations. He has worked as a geophysicist in exploration and resource development globally since 1976. Equitas will report the detailed target characteristics when final geophysical interpretations have been integrated into the exploration model.
