"We are very pleased to receive the recovery permit for this area off the
coast of Nova Scotia. We appreciate the cooperation and support from the
proper authorities in granting us permission to proceed. We believe this
site contains a large discontinuous assemblage of coins and maritime
artifacts," stated Peter Knollenberg, Chairman of Sovereign.
Based on the Company's extensive research and reconnaissance dives it
determined the larger portion of the wreckage site is in deeper waters.
"Sovereign now has access to very experienced deep water hard-hat divers
through our acquisition of an important ownership interest in REDS Caribbean
LTD. The company is a commercial deepwater diving and engineering company
based in Trinidad that now provides us with the in-house capability to
perform deep water operations," explained Robert Baca, Sovereign's President
& CEO.
"The combination of our first hand coastal knowledge, recent subsea mapping
utilizing the latest developments in sensing technology, and the many
reconnaissance hours spent on the site by our North American divers coupled
with the deepwater experience of our REDS Caribbean divers has me very
excited and optimistic about this recovery season. Never before has such a
professional, technical and experienced team of divers, archeologists and
curator been assembled here for such an important recovery operation. This
is a very large project to bring history from the depths of the ocean to
benefit the people of Nova Scotia, Sovereign and the general public at
large," stated Captain Robert MacKinnon, who heads Sovereign's Nova Scotia
operations.
