Abcourt Mines Inc. announced that a new drilling program is starting on its Flordin property (100% ABI) in the Lebel-sur-Quévillon area. The drill is already in action to carry out a minimum campaign of 1,300 metres. The objective of this campaign is to validate the lateral and depth continuity of a gold-bearing shear zone in the eastern sector of the property that has historically returned 6.49 g/tgold over 2.1 m and 22.63 g/t gold over 3.5 m (hole FL-18-254).

Following the compilation of data and re-verification of existing drill core, Abcourt's team confirmed that the mineralized zone is not associated with quartz-carbonate veins but rather with a shear zone in a basalt strongly altered in ankerite and hematite. The mineralization consists of fine disseminated cubic pyrite. In addition, Abcourt's team hypothesizes that the two high-grade gold zones are likely connected and form a single mineralized zone of multi-metre-thick high-grade gold.

It should also be noted that the gold shear was intersected within 40 meters of surface. This drilling campaign will develop new gold potential that has been undervalued in the past. It should also be noted that the latest Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) completed in 2023 by Innovexplo is available on SEDAR+ for consultation.

It reports a NI 43-101 compliant resource of 1,530,000 tonnes of measured and indicated grade at a grade of 2.15 g/t gold for a total of 107,000 ounces of gold. This new drilling campaign will potentially increase the resources of the main deposit as the newly exposed shear zone is located in a less densely drilled area of the property.
