Founders Metals Completes High-Resolution Soil Campaign at the Elmtree Gold Project

By: Newsfile

Edmonton, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - September 9, 2021) - Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) ("Founders" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has completed a property-wide Ion Leach soil sampling program at its Elmtree Gold Project in northeastern New Brunswick (fig. 1). A total of 3,715 samples were collected over the 1,026-hectare property. This high-resolution sampling campaign represents the most comprehensive geochemical survey on the property to date. It leverages the sensitivity of the Ionic Leach analytical method to identify new exploration targets and better define the extent of known gold mineralization on the property.

The completed survey includes 2,565 samples on a 25 x 50 m grid surrounding the West Gabbro and Discovery Zones' known gold mineralization and expands upon numerous historical gold-in-soil anomalies. In addition, 1,150 more broadly spaced samples were collected in the northern part of the property and cover several previously unsampled areas of interest identified from preliminary drone magnetics and compiled historical data. All samples have been submitted to ALS Global for analysis, and the results are pending.

Founders Metals CEO, John Williamson, commented, "The recently completed, property-wide soil program provides an essential dataset to the Founders' technical team. Integrating the survey results with historical work on the property and the data from our recently completed high-resolution drone magnetics survey will refine our targeting during the upcoming Fall 2021 drill campaign. We're excited to be moving on to the next exploration steps and toward further developing the Elmtree Gold Project."
