LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) (FSE: 3WK0) has announced the acquisition of a 100% interest in 27 mineral claims totaling approximately 701.7 hectares in Québec's Abitibi Gold Belt. The newly acquired claims are adjacent to the company's McKenzie East Project in the Val-d'Or mining district and were purchased from an arm's-length third party for cash consideration of C$35,000.
The acquisition supports LaFleur's strategy of consolidating prospective exploration ground in the Val-d'Or region, where it is advancing the PEA-stage Swanson Gold Project and preparing the fully permitted Beacon Gold Mill for a return to production. The property hosts the historical Maruska gold showing and contains no associated net smelter return royalty. The company also highlighted plans to resume drilling at the Swanson Gold Deposit following recent results that extended gold mineralization below the current resource and demonstrated continued potential for resource growth.
This strategic land consolidation comes as LaFleur focuses on developing district-scale gold projects in the Abitibi Gold Belt. The Swanson Gold Project is approximately 19,214 hectares and includes several prospects rich in gold and critical metals. The project is easily accessible by road, providing direct access to several nearby gold mills, including LaFleur's own Beacon Gold Mill, which is capable of processing over 750 tonnes per day. The company recently released positive Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) results for both the Swanson Gold Project and the planned restart of the Beacon Gold Mill.
The acquisition of these claims strengthens LaFleur's land position in a highly prospective area and aligns with its mission to advance mining projects with significant potential to deliver long-term value.
