Abcourt receives government authorizations to undertake stripping and drilling work for its Flordin and Discovery Properties and presents a Corporate and Operational Update
May 28 2024 - 4:15PM
Abcourt Mines Inc. (“Abcourt” or the “Company”) (TSX
Venture : ABI) is pleased to announce that it has just
obtained from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests of
Quebec, the necessary authorizations to undertake stripping and
drilling work (Impact Work Authorization, ATI) for its Flordin and
Discovery properties in the Lebel-sur-Quévillon area. Abcourt will
shortly undertake field work on these properties with the aim of
determining, based on the results obtained, future locations which
will be subject to monitoring by stripping and drilling. The first
phase of work which will begin in June will be concentrated between
the Flordin deposit and Cartwrigth with the aim of validating the
possible connection between the two mineralized zones. Note that
the sector is sub-outcropping with little overburden. Despite the
prospecting efforts that have already been carried out in the past
on our properties, it is worth mentioning that the price of gold
has never been so high historically. A gold index considered to be
marginal at the time becomes, with the current gold price, a new
gold opportunity. It is with this renewed vision that the Abcourt
field team will undertake the 2024 field work.
Pascal Hamelin, President and CEO
comments: “The field work which will begin on our
Quévillon properties will make it possible to clearly target the
next impact works. To this end, the Company holds all the
authorizations required to carry them out. The price of gold has
never been so high and the Company is positioning itself according
to its same strategic business plan, which is to develop economical
gold resources within a 100 km radius around its Sleeping Giant
mill.”
Sleeping Giant Mine Operational Update
Abcourt has completed the bulk sampling program
of the Pershing-Manitou deposit at its Sleeping Giant mill.
Analysis of the sampling results by an independent consultant is
underway. A report will be published in the coming weeks.
Operations at the Sleeping Giant project continue with underground
drilling to increase total mineral resources and convert inferred
resources to indicated resources. Underground teams are busy
rehabilitating underground infrastructures as well as hoisting
mineralized material to supply the ore processing plant. Abcourt
therefore began pouring gold bar from the Sleeping Giant project in
May. Over the coming months, Abcourt plans to continue supplying
the mill with material from its Sleeping Giant project.
