- Abitibi Greenstone gold belt, which hosts the Douay gold project, has produced more than 200 Moz of gold to date.

- Maple Gold’s leadership consists of ex-Ivanhoe Mines (TSX:IVN) and Inmet Mining alumni, with directors and advisors from Ivanhoe, Inment, Wheaton PM (TSX:WPM), Goldcorp and Placer Dome.
