(\"FireFox\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that it has secured two new properties near Rupert Resources' Area 1 targets in the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt (\"CLGB\") of\n \n Finland\n \n .\n \n \n \n Keulakko Property\n \n \n \n The 4.78 km\n \n 2\n \n Keulakkopäärinne (\"Keulakko\") property adjoins the western boundary of the Company´s Sarvi property and will be incorporated into the Sarvi Project on the northern boundary of Rupert Resources' Area 1 tenements. Keulakko is located approximately 2km north of the Sirkka Shear Zone and approximately 4km northwest of Rupert's Ikkari gold discovery. Bedrock in the Keulakko area consists of mafic volcanic rocks of the Kautoselkä Formation and graphitic tuffs of the Porkonen Formation.\n \n \n The area has seen some historical exploration, including reconnaissance till sampling and diamond core drilling by the Geological Survey of\n \n Finland\n \n (\"GTK\"). The public GTK database indicates that these programs yielded elevated gold-in-till values and short gold-bearing drill intercepts such as\n \n 0.45m\n \n @ 3.5 g/t Au and\n \n 4.6m\n \n @ 0.55 g/t Au. The GTK recommended further work in the area following the positive reconnaissance results.  FireFox has applied for and been granted an exploration reservation for Keulakko, which allows for non-mechanized exploration work for 2 years, and the exclusive right to apply for an exploration permit. The Keulakko area was part of FireFox´s detailed UAV magnetic survey during the summer (see Company news release dated\n \n August 26\n \n \n th\n \n , 2020).\n \n \n \n Lehto2 Property\n \n \n \n During the summer of 2020, FireFox geologists conducted significant reconnaissance mapping and sampling on the Lehto and Kolho pro...
