Diamond Core Drilling Underway at Firefox’S Must Ajärvi GOLD Project , Finland
DIAMOND CORE DRILLING UNDERWAY AT FIREFOX’S MUST AJÄRVI GOLD PROJECT , FINLAND
VANCOUVER, BC – (September 18th, 2019) – FireFox Gold Corp. (“FireFox” or the “Company”) is pleased to
report that diamond core drilling has started at its 100% owned Mustaja rvi Gold Project in the Central
Lapland Greenstone Belt, Finland. This phase of drilling consists of nine planned drill holes, with total
length of approximately 1,500 metres. The program has two primary objectives: (1) to follow up the high-
grade mineralization intersected earlier this year, and (2) to increase the strike length of the mineralization
by stepping out beyond the historic mineralization located near the center of the Mustaja rvi property.
The first four drill holes will follow up the high -grade gold mineralization (2m @ 45.1 g/t Au) intersected
during the Company´s P hase 1 drilling last winter (see FireFox news release dated 21 Jan, 2019). Of these
four holes, two will target the continuation of this high-grade gold zone another 25m and 50m down dip,
respectively. The remaining two holes are planned to test the strike extent of this mineralization 25m east
and west.
The fifth hole will test the continuation of mineralization encountered in two historical Outokumpu drill
holes, one of which intersected 2.7m @ 14.6 g/t Au. Drill hole six will be an attempt to duplicate an
Outokumpu hole that intersected 12m @ 2.7 g/t Au despite suffering severe core loss up to 50%. The aim
of these holes is to better understand the true width and grades of the near-surface mineralization.
Cautionary note: The historic Outokumpu drilling suffered from significant core loss due to faulting and
fracturing; reported widths may not represent true thickness. While the Company believes the preceding
historical drilling and sampling data are reliable, readers are cautioned that a “qualified person” (as defined
by National Instrument 43 -101) has not yet completed sufficient work to verify the historical information,
and therefore the information should not be relied upon. Outokumpu data retrieved from the Geological
Survey of Finland (GTK) database.
The remaining three holes are step-out holes further away from the central Mustajärvi mineralization. Two
drill holes will be located approximately 450m northeast from known drilling. These holes will target an
interpreted dilational jog along the shear zone which is associated with two distinct geochemical gold-in-
till anomalies. Another drill hole will be located 250m southwest of the central Mustajärvi drill holes. It will
target an interpreted flexure in the Mustajärvi shear zone that is associated with a strong IP chargeability
anomaly and low resistivity values.
Assay results from these holes are expected during late October and early November.
About the Mustajärvi Gold Project
The Mustaja rvi Gold Project (the “Project”) consists of an exploration permit and exploration reservations
covering over 15km2. The project area is flat, glacial till -covered terrain in the Lapland region of northern
Finland, 17 km east of the town of Kittila , with road and power on the property. The Project is situated in
the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt, which hosts several recent gold discoveries. The Project occupies
more than two kilometres strike length of the Venejoki Thrust Zone, which is believed to be a splay of the
Sirkka Thrust Zone, an important host to gold mineralization in the belt. The observed gold mineralization,
structural setting and work to date support the potential for a high -grade orogenic gold deposit on the
Mustaja rvi property.
