Investor presentation summary
31 Jul, 2026Project overview and regional context
Antino Gold Project covers 102,360 ha in Suriname's Guiana Shield, a geologically rich but under-explored region with significant gold potential.
The Guiana Shield shares geological continuity with West Africa's Birimian Shield, known for large gold deposits.
Suriname has a 25+ year history of large-scale gold mining, producing over 500,000 oz/year, and is attracting growing international investment.
The project benefits from strong local relationships, infrastructure, and a predominantly local workforce.
Exploration highlights and discoveries
Five separate high-grade shear zones identified, with drilling commencing late Q1 2026.
New discovery at Antino West (June 2026) extends mineralization 2,500 m along strike and over 500 m deep, with notable intercepts such as 53.1m of 1.21 g/t Au.
Upper Antino demonstrates persistent high-grade mineralization at depth, including 9.0 m of 12.21 g/t Au at 320 m vertical depth.
Lower Antino shows scale and consistent grade, with intercepts like 90.0 m of 1.02 g/t Au and remains open along strike and depth.
Ten major discoveries since 2023, with emerging targets such as Da Vinci, Van Gogh, Maria Geralda, and Parbo.
Resource growth and potential
Over 500,000 ounces of historical reported gold production; large, high-quality historical datasets support ongoing exploration.
Deposits in the Guiana Shield typically grow through adjacent discoveries, as seen at Rosebel and Merian.
All mineralized zones at Antino remain open along strike and at depth, indicating significant expansion potential.
Maria Geralda target is expanding with high-grade auger and drill results, and further drilling is planned.
Antino North and Northeast have confirmed new mineralized systems, with results such as 24.6 m of 2.81 g/t Au and 58.5 m of 1.00 g/t Au.
