Founders Metals Announces Scientific Publication on Antino Gold Project
Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF) announces the publication of a peer-reviewed scientific article in Ore Geology Reviews about the structural controls on gold mineralization at the Antino Gold Project in southeastern Suriname.
The research paper, authored by Founders Metals' Chief Geologist Vincent Combes, reveals that gold mineralization in the Antino district is primarily found within shear zones and intermediate intrusive bodies at lithological boundaries. The study highlights how key deformation events created extensive veining, brecciation, and shear zones, which serve as important pathways for gold mineralization.
The research confirms that later stage deformation was important for high-grade gold concentration at Antino, and emphasizes the significance of tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) complexes in strain accumulation and distribution.
Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF) annuncia la pubblicazione di un articolo scientifico sottoposto a revisione paritaria in Ore Geology Reviews riguardante i controlli strutturali sulla mineralizzazione dell'oro presso il Progetto Oro Antino nel sud-est del Suriname.
Il documento di ricerca, scritto dal Geologo Capo di Founders Metals, Vincent Combes, rivela che la mineralizzazione dell'oro nel distretto di Antino si trova principalmente all'interno di zone di taglio e corpi intrusivi intermedi ai confini litologici. Lo studio evidenzia come eventi di deformazione chiave abbiano creato ampie venature, breccia e zone di taglio, che fungono da importanti percorsi per la mineralizzazione dell'oro.
La ricerca conferma che la deformazione in fasi successive è stata importante per la concentrazione di oro ad alta legge ad Antino e sottolinea l'importanza dei complessi tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) nell'accumulo e distribuzione delle deformazioni.
Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF) anuncia la publicación de un artículo científico revisado por pares en Ore Geology Reviews sobre los controles estructurales en la mineralización de oro en el Proyecto de Oro Antino en el sureste de Surinam.
El documento de investigación, escrito por el Geólogo Jefe de Founders Metals, Vincent Combes, revela que la mineralización de oro en el distrito de Antino se encuentra principalmente dentro de zonas de cizallamiento y cuerpos intrusivos intermedios en los límites litológicos. El estudio destaca cómo eventos clave de deformación crearon extensas venas, brechas y zonas de cizallamiento, que sirven como importantes caminos para la mineralización de oro.
La investigación confirma que la deformación en etapas posteriores fue importante para la concentración de oro de alta ley en Antino y enfatiza la importancia de los complejos tonalita-trondhjemita-granodiorita (TTG) en la acumulación y distribución de la deformación.
Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF)는 수리남 남동부의 안티노 금 프로젝트에서 금 광물화에 대한 구조적 제어에 관한 동료 검토 과학 기사의 출판을 발표했습니다.
Founders Metals의 수석 지질학자인 빈센트 콤베스가 저술한 이 연구 논문은 안티노 지역에서 금 광물화가 주로 전단대와 리토로지 경계에 있는 중간 침입체 내에서 발견된다고 밝혔습니다. 이 연구는 주요 변형 사건이 어떻게 광범위한 vein, brecciation 및 전단대를 생성했는지를 강조하며, 이들이 금 광물화의 중요한 경로 역할을 한다고 설명합니다.
연구는 후속 단계의 변형이 안티노에서 고품위 금 농축에 중요했음을 확인하고, 변형 축적 및 분포에서 톤알라이트-트론드헨미트-그라노디오라이트(TTG) 복합체의 중요성을 강조합니다.
Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF) annonce la publication d'un article scientifique évalué par des pairs dans Ore Geology Reviews concernant les contrôles structurels sur la minéralisation de l'or au Projet d'Or Antino dans le sud-est du Suriname.
Le document de recherche, rédigé par le géologue en chef de Founders Metals, Vincent Combes, révèle que la minéralisation de l'or dans le district d'Antino se trouve principalement au sein de zones de cisaillement et de corps intrusifs intermédiaires aux limites lithologiques. L'étude met en évidence comment des événements de déformation clés ont créé d'importantes veines, brèches et zones de cisaillement, qui servent de voies essentielles pour la minéralisation de l'or.
La recherche confirme que la déformation à un stade ultérieur a été importante pour la concentration d'or de haute qualité à Antino, et souligne l'importance des complexes tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) dans l'accumulation et la distribution de la déformation.
Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF) gibt die Veröffentlichung eines von Fachkollegen geprüften wissenschaftlichen Artikels in Ore Geology Reviews bekannt, der sich mit den strukturellen Kontrollen der Goldmineralisierung im Antino Gold Projekt im Südosten von Surinam beschäftigt.
Das Forschungspapier, verfasst von Vincent Combes, dem Chefgeologen von Founders Metals, zeigt, dass die Goldmineralisierung im Antino-Distrikt hauptsächlich innerhalb von Scherungszonen und intermediären intrusiven Körpern an lithologischen Grenzen vorkommt. Die Studie hebt hervor, wie wichtige Deformationsereignisse umfangreiche Aderbildung, Brecciation und Scherungszonen geschaffen haben, die als wichtige Wege für die Goldmineralisierung dienen.
Die Forschung bestätigt, dass spätere Deformationen für die Konzentration von hochgradigem Gold in Antino wichtig waren, und betont die Bedeutung von Tonalit-Trondhjemit-Granodiorit (TTG)-Komplexen bei der Akkumulation und Verteilung von Deformation.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 10, 2025) - Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF) (FSE: 9DL0) ("Founders" or the "Company") announces the recent publication of a peer-reviewed scientific journal article providing new insights into the structural controls on gold mineralization at the Antino Gold Project ("Antino") and surrounding area in southeastern Suriname. Ore Geology Reviews published 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 here.
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
