If You Invested in GO METALS CORP (GOCOF)

Go Metals Corp (CSE: GOCO, OTC: GOCOF) is a Canadian exploration company focused on critical metals and related mineral systems. According to multiple company news releases, Go Metals targets projects in Canada that are prospective for metals such as copper, nickel, cobalt, vanadium, titanium and scandium, as well as natural (geologic) hydrogen. The company describes its strategy as aiming to help create a sustainable future by exploring for metals used in batteries, critical infrastructure and the broader green energy transition.

Go Metals operates primarily in Quebec and Yukon. Several news releases state that the company "targets Canadian critical metal projects" and works "predominantly in Canada". Its projects include the Monster iron oxide copper-gold (IOCG) project in the Dawson Region of Yukon, the HSP and Clyde nickel-copper sulphide projects, and the KM98 critical metals project in the Côte-Nord region of Quebec. Together, HSP, Clyde and KM98 form a land package of approximately 416.5 square kilometres north of Havre-Saint-Pierre, within the Nitassinan of Ekuanitshit.

Critical metals exploration focus

In several "About Go Metals" sections, the company is described as a critical mineral exploration company that focuses on metals such as copper and nickel for use in batteries and critical infrastructure projects. The company also highlights vanadium and titanium at its KM98 project, and cobalt at its Monster project. This emphasis on critical metals aligns with its stated goal of contributing to a sustainable future and the green energy transition.

Go Metals’ exploration portfolio includes:

• Monster Project (Yukon) – Described as the company’s flagship IOCG project and a significant copper target in the Dawson Mining District of Yukon. News releases characterize Monster as a district-scale IOCG system with high-grade copper and cobalt mineralization at surface and large magnetic and gravity anomalies suggesting depth potential. The project area includes Wernecke breccia and is fully permitted for advanced exploration activities through 2032 under a Class 3 exploration licence.
• HSP and Clyde Projects (Quebec) – These projects are part of a large land package north of Havre-Saint-Pierre. Company disclosures state that HSP, Clyde and KM98 host multiple nickel-copper sulphide targets within the same regional anorthosite complex. The contact between the anorthosite complex and footwall gneiss at HSP is identified as the host of nickel-copper mineralization.
• KM98 Critical Metals Project (Quebec) – KM98 is described as a group of critical metals targets within the Havre-Saint-Pierre anorthositic suite, in the same complex as HSP. The property is approximately 60 kilometres north of Havre-Saint-Pierre and is road accessible. Company news notes that KM98 hosts large electromagnetic and magnetic anomalies and that reconnaissance work has identified massive and semi-massive oxide mineralization and nickel-copper sulphide targets.

KM98 Fe-Ti-V and critical metals work

Recent news releases describe KM98 as a Vanadium Titanomagnetite (Fe-Ti-V) project. Go Metals reports multiple titanium-vanadium-bearing massive oxide occurrences discovered during reconnaissance. The company’s geological team identified magnetite-rich zones with vanadium and titanium values that it compares to other vanadium-titanium magnetite projects. Further work includes scanning electron microscope studies by IOS Géosciences to understand the deportment of critical metals within titanomagnetite and ilmenite, and metallurgical testing to evaluate recovery and concentrate quality for magnetite, ilmenite, vanadium and other elements such as nickel, cobalt, copper and scandium.

Go Metals has also outlined a sampling and metallurgical testing program at KM98, including bulk sampling along a 12-kilometre magnetic anomaly and metallurgical test work in Chicoutimi, Quebec. The stated objective is to generate initial data on magnetite and ilmenite concentrates and establish baseline recovery data to support potential future economic studies.

Monster IOCG copper-cobalt project

The Monster Project in Yukon is repeatedly highlighted as the company’s flagship asset. Company disclosures describe Monster as a district-scale IOCG system, one of the few of its kind in Canada, with high-grade copper and cobalt mineralization at surface and three large-scale magnetic and gravity anomalies. The property totals approximately 62 square kilometres and encapsulates the largest known portion of the Wernecke breccia, extending over 17 kilometres along trend. It is located in the Dawson Region, in the traditional territory of the Tr'ondëk Hwëch'in First Nation, and is accessible by helicopter.

Go Metals has outlined a diamond drill program at Monster targeting priority zones named Beast, Bloom and Arena. The company reports high copper and cobalt values in rock and soil samples, and notes that only limited historical drilling has been completed. The project is fully permitted for advanced exploration activities through a Class 3 licence valid into the next decade, which the company identifies as a key factor for continued exploration work.

Natural hydrogen exploration and Deep Hydrogen subsidiary

Beyond metals, Go Metals has expanded into natural (geologic) hydrogen exploration. A series of news releases describe the creation of a wholly owned subsidiary, Deep Hydrogen Corp., with a mandate to explore for natural hydrogen (also referred to as geologic, white or gold hydrogen) in the Canadian Shield. The company reports staking five new road-accessible claim blocks in Ontario and Quebec, totalling several thousand hectares, based on analysis of geological units, fault and fracture networks, and surficial hydrogen indicators.

These projects, named Hydra, Fornax, Ursa, Aquila and Cygnus, are described as being located near ultramafic and mafic lithologies, regional faults, and circular forest anomalies. Go Metals explains that it uses AI and traditional prospecting techniques to identify circular vegetation patterns, sometimes referred to as forest rings or circular vegetation anomalies, which may be related to subsurface gas pathways and hydrogen potential. The company also notes that hydrogen exploration is an emerging activity in Canada and that the regulatory framework is evolving by province.

Use of AI and GeoDL exploration tools

Go Metals emphasizes the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in its exploration approach. The company develops and uses a suite of AI exploration tools under the "GeoDL" banner. According to company descriptions, GeoDL learns from multiple layers of merged data, including structural, geophysical, geochemical, geographical and satellite-derived inputs, to identify combinations and patterns that may not be readily visible to the human eye.

In addition, Go Metals has entered into a pilot program with MineCompare AI to evaluate large language models tailored for geological data. The stated goal is to support advanced analysis and peer benchmarking of its exploration projects, particularly the Monster IOCG project. The pilot focuses on streamlining data integration and accelerating insight generation by combining public and proprietary datasets, with the intention of enhancing technical evaluations while maintaining a focus on high-value exploration activities.

Partnerships and research collaborations

Go Metals’ disclosures reference several technical and academic collaborations. For KM98, the company reports working with IOS Géosciences in Chicoutimi, Quebec, on metallurgical testing and mineralogical analysis. It has also announced a partnership with l'Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) and Université du Québec à Chicoutimi (UQAC) for a proposed research initiative in the HSP anorthosite complex, subject to grant funding through the Fonds de recherche du Québec – Nature et technologies.

For natural hydrogen exploration, Go Metals has engaged Enki GeoSolutions in Quebec. Enki GeoSolutions and its principal, a geologist with experience in petroleum and natural hydrogen, have collaborated with INRS on research reports about the potential for natural hydrogen in Quebec. These relationships are presented by the company as part of its technical and scientific foundation for evaluating hydrogen targets.
