The Antino Gold District
Located in the heart of the Guiana Shield, the Antino Gold District consists of shear zone and intrusion-hosted orogenic gold systems developed within highly prospective greenstone belt geology and major regional structures. Drilling at Antino to date has identified two advanced targets, Upper Antino and Lower Antino, as well as several other earlier-stage targets, each located several kilometres apart.
Founders is advancing Antino through a systematic, district-scale exploration strategy, integrating diamond drilling, geophysics, geochemical sampling, and geological modelling to expand the footprint of known mineralization and evaluate multiple priority target areas across the broader district.
