VANCOUVER, BC, March 5, 2025 /CNW/ - First Mining Gold Corp. ("First Mining" or the "Company") (TSX:FF.TO) (OTCQX:FFMGF) (FRANKFURT:FMG) is pleased to announce its 2025 exploration programs at the Duparquet Gold Project ("Duparquet Project" or the "Project") located in the Abitibi region of Quebec, Canada. The 2025 program at the Duparquet Project will be the largest exploration drill program undertaken by the Company since acquiring full ownership of the Project in 2022. First Mining will aim to complete an approximate 18,000 m of exploration drilling this year, focusing on advancing priority targets that are aligned to resource growth potential which will further unlock an important regional gold endowment supportive of future development optionality at the Duparquet Project. The program is built upon key target centres that the Company has previously identified and significantly de-risked, for an expansion of internal successes and recent discoveries while also pursuing new regional exploration opportunities.
