Founders Metals (OTCQX: FDMIF) has announced significant drill results from its ongoing 60,000-metre drilling campaign at the Antino Gold Project in Suriname. The company reported impressive high-grade gold mineralization at depth, including 18.0 metres of 6.14 g/t gold and 5.0 metres of 10.61 g/t gold from approximately 450 meters vertical depth in drill hole FR138.
The deep drilling program has successfully doubled the vertical extent from 280m to ~500m, with systematic drilling intercepting multiple kilometre-scale, gold-bearing shears. The company currently has four drill rigs operating at Antino, focusing on continued drilling along strike and depth at Upper Antino, drilling at Maria Geralda, completing the Parbo auger program, and conducting surface exploration programs.
Founders Metals (OTCQX: FDMIF) reports significant progress in its surface exploration program at the Antino Gold Project in Suriname. At the Maria Geralda target, exploration revealed a 1.3 km strike length with gold grades up to 7.47 g/t, with 61% of samples showing anomalous results. The Parbo target demonstrated a substantial 1,200 x 600-metre auger anomaly with samples reaching 51.42 g/t Au and a newly discovered 15-metre-wide oxidized shear zone yielding grab samples up to 26.85 g/t Au.
The company's exploration strategy focuses on structures within the Central Guiana Shear Zone, with Maria Geralda showing two distinct mineralization styles: high-grade shear-hosted and lower-grade bulk tonnage. With the dry season beginning, Founders plans to continue systematic drilling at Maria Geralda and initiate a Phase 1 diamond drill program at Parbo in Q4.
