Abcourt Mines Highlights Significant Gold Intersections and Drilling Success
Abcourt Mines Reports Exciting Drilling Results on Flordin Property
Abcourt Mines Inc. (TSX Venture: ABI) (OTCQB: ABMBF) is thrilled to announce the results of its recent drilling campaign at the Flordin property. Recent assay results revealed a remarkable intersection of 3.7 g/t gold over an impressive 11 meters, showcasing the potential of this site. This high-grade discovery happened just below the Cartwright stripping, less than three meters from the surface.
The easternmost hole, FL-25-277, revealed 1.4 g/t gold over 13 meters, suggesting strong mineralization continuity. Furthermore, the westernmost hole, FL-25-286, confirmed ongoing mineralization with 0.4 g/t gold over 16 meters.
Characteristics of Gold Mineralization on the Flordin Property
The geological features of the Cartwright area point to a unique mineralization, primarily composed of gold-bearing pyrite bands mixed with silica and hematite, devoid of quartz veins. Interestingly, similar findings were reported from previous drilling in the central property area.
A detailed petrographic analysis is currently being executed by geological expert Ms. Lucie Mathieu, Ph.D. at GEOX Consulting Inc., aimed at comparing mineralization types at the Cartwright zone to those in the Central and South zones located about 2 kilometers away. A complementary geochemical study is also in progress to understand the lithologies and alterations across the mineralized segments.
Objectives of the 2025 Flordin Drilling Campaign
The 2025 drilling campaign set forth two main objectives:
Objective 1: Verify the continuity of gold mineralization under the recently completed Cartwright stripping operations, where a total of nine drill holes totaling 1,227 meters were executed. Each of the drilled holes has returned gold values across extensive lengths. Notably, hole FL-25-274 yielded remarkable results of 3.5 g/t gold over 27.5 meters, including a peak of 12.1 g/t over 7.5 meters.
Objective 2: Confirm the presence of the South Zone, first discovered by Cambior in 1988, and understand its mineralization characteristics. Drilling here consisted of four deep holes for a total of 2,403 meters, and results also displayed promising gold values over lengthy sections, such as one hole returning 1.1 g/t gold over 47.2 meters, with 7.6 g/t over 3 meters.
Summary of Gold Assay Results from 2025 Drilling
Every drill hole from the 2025 campaign successfully intercepted gold values, reinforcing the mineral potential of the property. The summary of significant gold assay results includes:
- FL-25-273: 1.2 g/t over 18.5 meters, 0.6 g/t included over 8.5 meters.
- FL-25-274: 3.5 g/t over 27.5 meters, highlighting the richness of this section.
- FL-25-282: 1.1 g/t gold over 47.2 meters, showcasing the robust mineralization.
Specifically, the data from hole FL-25-284 illustrates a promising 3.7 g/t gold over 11 meters. Each drilling endeavor showcases variability in grade and thickness but uniformly indicates significant gold mineralization across the property.
Looking Forward: Future Drilling Phases
Pascal Hamelin, CEO of Abcourt, expresses excitement regarding the drilling campaign's outcomes. He emphasizes that this operation yielded a prominent identification of high-grade gold mineralization over a distance exceeding 2 kilometers. The second phase of drilling will aim to connect various mineralized zones horizontally, further establishing the potential of the Flordin project.
The strategic positioning of the Flordin project, located just 20 kilometers north of Lebel-Sur-Quévillon and near key transportation routes, enhances its viability for exploration and future development.
