Hmmm...I've tried to log onto Leapfrog but it refused to
allow me to sign in giving me a bad username/password
msg. I requested a reset password email and it continues to
not accept any password I try to establish even with the #,
upper case and number of character parameters.
I'll try later. Did anyone else find this problem?

I attempted to download Leapfrog but the status has

Hi Fafurdinov,
To take part in this Challenge all you need is a brain full
of innovative ideas, and a computer with an internet
connection. Once the Challenge launches, everyone will
download the data, and create submissions that outline
where they think the next big gold discovery on our
property is.
Good luck in the challenge!

Hi Abdelrazek,
To create a team you must wait for the Challenge to
officially launch. Once this happens, there will be a
button here on the HeroX page that will say "create a
team" and you will be able to create a team with other
innovators. Once the Challenge launches, if you are not
able to figure it out, please write again and I can email
you detailed instructions!

Hi All - here's more Sigma-Lamaque Style Geology reading
as you prepare to enter the Gold Rush Challenge!
The following link will take you to a report from our
neighboring Lamaque South Gold Project, situated right next
door to Sigma-Lamaque (ie the place where the Gold Rush
Challenge data will come from). The geology, ore deposit
types and mineralization styles/controls of the two areas,
separated by only 1-2 kilometers, is identical. Have a look!

Hey Everyone,
I didn't read all comments below but I did read quite a few
and a recurring question is "do you have anything to get us
started?". Anyone looking at getting a head start before the
data comes out can look at already existing data on the preexisting mines. Look at things like grade and tonnage
produced, associated minerals, deposit types/characteristics
in the Val D'or area.

The data capture is in the process of being completed,

are many sources of data being compiled and digitized

validation and georeferencing is being performed in this
