FireFox Gold Corp Engages Goldspot Discoveries for Target Generation Program

27.07.2020  |  CNW
VANCOUVER, July 27, 2020 - FireFox Gold Corp. ("FireFox" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its summer exploration program, including the commencement of the next-generation integrated interpretation and targeting exercise for the Company's gold projects in the Central Lapland Region of Finland.

FireFox has engaged GoldSpot Discoveries Corp. (TSXV: SPOT) ("GoldSpot"), a leader in utilizing artificial intelligence for target generation in mineral exploration. GoldSpot will apply machine learning and its proprietary expertise to delineate new drill-ready targets for orogenic gold mineralization, as well as identify prospective areas regionally. The process will involve analyzing all available geological and remote sensing data from FireFox's properties, including information from the current field program such as the results of the ongoing high-resolution airborne magnetics survey. GoldSpot will work closely with the FireFox technical team, as well as FireFox's Technical Advisor and orogenic gold specialist, Dr. Richard Goldfarb.

FireFox's chairman, Patrick Highsmith, remarked on the alliance with GoldSpot, "We are very excited to unleash GoldSpot's cutting-edge technology on our gold projects in northern Finland. Our new integrated team encompasses FireFox's deep Finland expertise and more than 120 years of economic geology experience, and the structural geology, geophysics, geochemistry, and technology mavens from GoldSpot. We believe the future of gold discovery will be driven by high-quality data, technical excellence, and smart application of machine learning."

Denis Laviolette, Executive Chairman and President of GoldSpot Discoveries, commented "GoldSpot Discoveries is excited to bring our big data solution to Finland, a world class mining jurisdiction that is notoriously rich in data. We believe FireFox's gold projects have incredible potential and GoldSpot will be able leverage its team and technology to unlock significant value. We believe GoldSpot's approach to integrating FireFox's existing and newly generated datasets with the Geological Survey of Finland's impeccable geodatabase (which includes over 130 years of historical data), will provide FireFox with a significant advantage over other explorers in the area."

GoldSpot's subject matter experts will homogenize, integrate, process and interpret exploration datasets such as mapped or logged lithology, geophysics, surface and downhole geochemistry, and structural data. These interpreted and derived products will be used as input layers to GoldSpot's proprietary AI (machine learning) techniques, which will then be validated by their team of expert geoscientists, in collaboration with the FireFox team.

Summer Exploration Program Update

FireFox is also pleased to report that its previously announced summer exploration program is well underway. The 2,100 line-kilometre unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) based magnetic survey is approximately 50% complete with results expected by the middle of August (see news release dated July 14, 2020 and note revision to 2,100 from 1,100 line-kilometres). Trenching is underway at the Jeesiö Project and the reconnaissance mapping and sampling program is ongoing. Several batches of samples have already been dispatched to the laboratory for gold and multi-element analyses.
