LaFleur Minerals Expands Abitibi Holdings and Prepares Beacon Mill Restart

LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) is making strategic moves to solidify its position in Québec's prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt. The company recently announced the acquisition of 27 mineral claims totaling approximately 701 hectares adjacent to its McKenzie East Project, expanding its total land position to more than 23,100 hectares across 490 claims. This acquisition includes the historical Maruska gold showing, which LaFleur plans to explore through data compilation, drilling, and other activities. This expansion aligns with the company's district-scale strategy in a region known for its robust infrastructure and access to mining resources.

In tandem with its land consolidation, LaFleur is refurbishing its 100%-owned Beacon Gold Mill, expecting to restart operations in the coming months. The mill will initially process existing stockpiles and potentially material from its Swanson Gold Project. The company's recent Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for the Swanson Gold Project highlighted low CAPEX and robust economics, reinforcing its development pathway. The combination of expanded land holdings, exploration opportunities, and planned mill operations underscores LaFleur's commitment to becoming a significant player in the Abitibi region.

LaFleur Minerals is focused on district-scale gold projects, with its flagship Swanson Gold Project spanning approximately 19,214 hectares. The project includes several prospects rich in gold and critical metals, previously held by Monarch Mining, Abcourt Mines, and Globex Mining. The Beacon Gold Mill, capable of processing over 750 tonnes per day, is central to the company's strategy, potentially handling material from Swanson and offering custom milling services for nearby projects.
