Drill resultsSeeing Beyond the Treeline: The Drone as a Scout and Partner
Nuvau Minerals describes the use of a drone, piloted by certified operator Denis who is trained to fly with and without line of sight, added to its exploration team last year at Matagami. The drone performs pre-entry flyovers before prospecting to confirm outcrops identified by LiDAR, spot wetlands and impassable areas, identify access routes, and assess terrain for drilling or geophysical targets. It also helped locate old drill pads and survey new sectors planned for geophysical work.

CorporateRevealing the Invisible: Hydrogeochemistry Applied to Deep Exploration in Matagami
A hydrogeochemical survey at Matagami, conducted with Orflow Geosciences, collected 68 groundwater samples from 20 drillholes at depths between 80 and 1,400 m across two prospective areas. Zinc and associated metal concentrations define a roughly 500 × 500 m halo at McLeod East, spatially independent from the main McLeod deposit and in an untested area, with values described as typical of proximal halos to volcanic massive sulphide systems. The second area returned no significant anomalies. Nuvau's Matagami land position includes more than 8,000 historical drillholes.
