LaFleur Minerals Raises C$11M to Restart Gold Production at Beacon Mill

LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) has successfully raised over C$11 million through public and private offerings to restart gold production at its Beacon Gold Mill and advance exploration across its Quebec properties. The company plans to process mineralized material from its Swanson Gold Deposit, initially targeting 750 metric tons per day (TPD) and increasing throughput to 1,250 TPD as mining operations expand. LaFleur’s Swanson and recently acquired McKenzie East Gold projects span approximately 23,000 hectares within Canada’s prolific Abitibi Gold Belt. The company continues drilling programs to expand its resource base. With gold prices rising substantially since early 2025 and base-case planning reflecting lower historical prices, LaFleur expects strong profitability from its planned production operations.

LaFleur Minerals is focused on developing district-scale gold projects in the Abitibi Gold Belt near Val-d’Or, Québec. The company’s mission is to advance mining projects with a laser focus on its PEA-stage Swanson Gold Project and the Beacon Gold Mill, which have significant potential to deliver long-term value. The Swanson Gold Project is approximately 19,214 hectares and includes several prospects rich in gold and critical metals previously held by Monarch Mining, Abcourt Mines, and Globex Mining. LaFleur has consolidated a large land package along a major structural break hosting the Swanson, Bartec, and Jolin gold deposits. The project is easily accessible by road, allowing direct access to several nearby gold mills. The recently refurbished Beacon Gold Mill is capable of processing over 750 tonnes per day and is being considered for processing mineralized material from Swanson and for custom milling operations for other nearby gold projects.

LaFleur recently released the results of a positive Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for the Swanson Gold Project and the planned restart of the Beacon Gold Mill. The company’s newsroom at https://ibn.fm/LFLRF provides the latest updates. This development positions LaFleur as a potential near-term gold producer in a rising gold price environment, with a clear pathway to production and robust economics highlighted in the PEA.
