FireFox Gold Corp. has discovered the new high-grade Lammas Zone at its 100%-owned Mustajärvi Gold Project in Lapland, Finland, with discovery hole 26MJ032 intersecting 21.0 metres averaging 4.13 g/t gold from a depth of 114.0 metres, including 1.0 metre at 21.6 g/t gold.

The new zone is located nearly a kilometre east of the main Mustajärvi Shear Zone. In addition to the headline intercept, the discovery hole returned a second interval of 4.2 metres averaging 3.41 g/t gold from 138.0 metres depth, including 1.0 metre at 7.22 g/t gold, alongside deeper narrow intervals of 1.0 metre at 3.01 g/t gold from 186.0 metres and 1.0 metre at 1.82 g/t gold from 191.0 metres.

The arrival of a second drill rig at the project has enabled the company to test a broader array of priority targets across the property. FireFox is currently working toward completing a maiden mineral resource estimate for the Mustajärvi project in early 2027.

The technical team has completed two additional reconnaissance holes, designated 26MJ033 and 26MJ035, along a 250-metre trend at the Lammas structure. Assay results for both holes are currently pending.

“The results from this hole indicate just how much potential for discovery and expansion remains in the Mustajärvi Shear Zone system. Here at Lammas, work is just beginning, but this structural trend appears to have continuity over some appreciable distance. It is common in orogenic gold systems to find mineralization along multiple structures, either parallel splays of a fault system or stepovers where one system is offset but continues. We have now drill-tested the structure in both directions along strike from the discovery hole, and geophysics and BoT geochemistry suggest that it could continue across the highway onto our northern block and eventually to ground held by Agnico Eagle Mines, more than 1 kilometre away. We plan to return to drilling on the structure in the coming weeks when winter conditions provide better access. In the meantime, we look forward to assays from the two other holes we have completed at Lammas, as well as from our other drilling at multiple targets throughout the project.”

Work at the Lammas target forms part of the ongoing exploration campaigns leading up to the anticipated maiden resource estimate.
