As part of the optimization of the mining plan with a view to support a prefeasibility study and starting production, Abcourt has carried out, from December 2023 to July 31, 2024, 33 underground drilling holes totaling 3,650 meters. According to the mining plan, the Zone 20 West stope is among the first stopes to be put into production at start-up. 11 holes totaling 1,118 metres were drilled in the Zone 20 West sector to better define the dimension and grade of the planned stope. Abcourt presents the results of 6 drill holes totaling 641 meters drilled in Zone 20 West from level 235. The 5 other holes drilled in the sector are awaiting results. The highlights of the analysis results, included in this press release, are as follows: 125.67 g/t Au over 0.5 meter in hole 23-489. 46.08 g/t Au over 1 meter in hole 23-485.
