Antino Gold Project
The Antino Gold Project is a gold exploration project located in southeastern Suriname, within the mineral-rich Guiana Shield – one of the world’s most prospective greenstone belts.
The Project spans 200 square kilometres and is positioned approximately 275 km southeast of Paramaribo, the capital of Suriname. The site is accessible year-round via a private airstrip at the Antino Camp or by barge along the Lawa River.
The Guiana Shield hosts several major gold deposits, many of which are situated within regionally extensive greenstone belts comprising of metamorphosed volcanic and sedimentary sequences intruded by granitic bodies.
In Suriname, the gold-rich greenstone belts extend throughout much of northeast and east portions of the country. At Antino, the project is underlain by volcano-sedimentary stratigraphy which is well-known to host large-scale gold deposits in the region. Notable projects include Rosebel (12.5 Moz) and Merian (11.8 Moz) mines.
Gold mineralization at Antino is associated with the Antino Shear Zone. Mineralization along this structure is associated with higher-order faults or splays that offer significant opportunity for new discoveries along strike.
