What are the key high-grade intercepts at Maria Geralda?

Question

Accepted Answer

Key high-grade gold intercepts reported at Maria Geralda
Founders Metals reported several near-surface high-grade gold intercepts at Maria Geralda from its deep auger program, including multiple intervals exceeding 4.0 g/t Au. The strongest reported intercepts include 30.0 m of 4.52 g/t Au (MGAD061) and 23.0 m of 5.31 g/t Au (MGAD062), alongside 19.0 m of 4.02 g/t Au (MGAD064) and 9.0 m of 6.24 g/t Au (MGAD074). In some holes, mineralisation continued to the 30 m auger limit, with all current mineralisation hosted in saprolite.
Near-surface intervals with the highest grades
The near-surface results highlighted at Maria Geralda include 30.0 m at 4.52 g/t Au in MGAD061 and 23.0 m at 5.31 g/t Au in MGAD062. Other high-grade intercepts listed are 19.0 m at 4.02 g/t Au in MGAD064 and 9.0 m at 6.24 g/t Au in MGAD074.
Additional high-grade intercepts from the deep auger holes
The release also singled out 30.0 m at 3.69 g/t Au in MGAD060 and 17.0 m at 2.94 g/t Au in MGAD063 as part of the same near-surface high-grade footprint. It further states that results include 9.0 m of 6.24 g/t Au (MGAD074) as an additional highlighted interval from the new auger holes.
Mineralisation reaching the 30 m auger limit in multiple holes
In several Maria Geralda holes, gold mineralisation continued to the end of drilling at the 30 m auger limit. The report specifically notes this for MGAD060 and MGAD061, indicating that the shoot remains open at depth based on the auger results.
Historical channel result east of the current auger grid
East of Maria Geralda, a historical high-grade channel returned 12.3 m at 4.52 g/t Au. The stated grade and width pattern is described as similar to the high-grade gold shoot defined by the deep auger drilling, pointing to the possibility of a second, vertically stacked mineralised shoot within the broader northwest-oriented structure.
