Harvest Gold (TSXV:HVG) President and CEO Rick Mark believes the company has a strong position in QuƩbec's Abitibi greenstone belt, emphasizing the highly prospective Urban-Barry belt, "a very well-known mine-producing belt."

In an interview with the Investing News Network, Mark also honed in on QuƩbec's supportive mining environment and accessible properties, which keep exploration costs "relatively very inexpensive."

Satellite Imagery and Gold Exploration

Exploring for gold is a costly endeavor that often comes with great risks, especially for junior mining companies.

That’s where the use of satellite imagery and remote sensing comes in. Using satellite systems scanning for gold helps explorers survey land without having to invest heavily in equipment or develop on-site infrastructure.
