Trillium Gold Mines Taps AI for Leo Property Exploration
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada -- August 13, 2020 -- NewsGenie -- Trillium Gold Mines Inc. (TSXV:TGM) has commissioned Windfall Geotek to deploy its CARDS Artificial Intelligence (AI) system on the Leo Property, a greenfield exploration project 15km south of Great Bear Resources’ Dixie project. The goal is to identify high-grade gold targets.

Russell Starr, CEO of Trillium Gold Mines, stated that AI will help focus on high-quality targets and speed up the discovery of gold mineralization by evaluating large geological datasets.

Windfall Geotek's CARDS analysis identifies high exploration potential areas by analyzing drill hole, rock, soil sample, and data site information. The MCubiX data mining engine recognizes patterns and identifies new mineralization signatures often missed by the naked eye.

According to Starr, this collaboration will accelerate gold targeting and allow the team to manage field programs on the Newman Todd and Rivard Properties.
The Newman Todd project is located near active forest fires north of Red Lake, but work continues with vigilant monitoring. The Leo Property, 35 kilometers southeast of Red Lake, features similar geological characteristics to regional projects.
