District to Mineral-Scale Geometry of the World-Class Antino

Orogenic Gold System, Southeastern Suriname (Guiana Shield)

, written by Founders Metals' Chief

Geologist, Vincent Combes. You can access a downloadable version of the paper

.

Colin Padget, Founders' President & CEO commented: "This research underscores the significance of

integrating district to mineral scale geological data to refine gold exploration strategies at Antino. The

Company's success to date has been predicated on having a solid geological understanding of the

area, which continues to be further defined with ongoing exploration. Our strategy for 2025 remains

focused on expanding the more advanced targets along strike and at depth and testing new prospective

areas."

Key Takeaways of Publication

Gold mineralization in the Antino district is preferentially hosted within shear zones and

intermediate intrusive bodies at lithological boundaries

Key deformation events created extensive veining, brecciation, and shear zones, all of which are

important pathways for gold mineralization

Later stage deformation played a crucial role in the high-grade concentration of gold at Antino

Confirmation that the location and shape of tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) complexes

are important in strain accumulation and distribtution at Antino
