Treasure & Shipwreck Recovery Posts Cannon Find Video, Provides Update on Operations

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Dec. 17, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NetworkWire – Treasure & Shipwreck Recovery, Inc. (OTC: BLIS) (“TSR” or “the Company”) announces that it has posted to YouTube.com a video of the cannon recently found off the east coast of Florida. Research suggests the cannon and anchor found are likely from the same 17^th century shipwreck. The video can be viewed at https://youtu.be/pPqghpKjgJM.

The origin of the 7-foot-long cannon is now being researched. With other research complete, the geographic parameters of the area to be claimed in a U.S. Court Admiralty has been established. With a successful admiralty claim, TSR will be in control as a salvor, and can reduce the wreck and cargo to its possession in the court.

Using scanning equipment and a dive crew, the area between the targets found will be surveyed to identify and gather artifacts.

TSR is in possession of objects from the site which will be used to turn over to the U.S. Marshal for the “arrest” of the site for purposes of the court claim. After the arrest occurs, TSR will take possession of the site as a custodian before the final orders of salvor and ownership occurs. Since the area is outside of state waters, no other permissions are required. The Company is now purchasing larger amounts of equipment for dive and scanning operations.

The Company is currently updating its website and will be announcing other projects and news over the next weeks.
