Linear Minerals Assayed 21.10 Percent Copper in Surface Samples at the Lac Coulombe Property, Quebec

LINE · Price

Executive Summary

  • Linear Minerals reported high‑grade copper surface samples from the Lac Coulombe Property, including up to 21.10 % Cu in six Toupin Showing samples.
  • Anomalous gold (up to 1.518 ppm Au) and silver (up to 48.2 ppm Ag) were also identified, primarily associated with the high‑copper zones.
  • The company received an ATI (Impact‑causing Exploration Work) permit, enabling trenching and drilling on the property, and plans follow‑up exploration to evaluate both copper and hydrogen potential.

Key Details

  • Copper Assays: 0.5 ppm – 211,000 ppm (21.10 % Cu). Highest values from Toupin Showing (six samples: 4.6 %–21.10 % Cu); Mount Louise Showing one sample at 0.8 % Cu; Lac Coulombe Showing one sample at 0.21 % Cu.
  • Gold Assays: <0.001 ppm – 1.518 ppm Au. Highest gold (1.518 ppm) from a Lac Coulombe sample, with other anomalous values linked to high‑copper zones.
  • Silver Assays: 0.01 ppm – 48.2 ppm Ag. Peak silver (48.2 ppm) from Toupin Showing; additional 9.53 ppm Ag in Lac Coulombe sample.
  • Nickel Assays: 1.8 ppm – 1,730 ppm Ni. Single high‑nickel sample (1,730 ppm) from historical Laurier Juteau Ni Showing.
  • Sampling Program: Collected 29 grab and channel‑cut samples (including two field duplicates). Samples processed by AGAT Laboratories using fire assay for Au and 4‑acid digestion for metals.
  • Permit Acquisition: Received an ATI permit authorizing trenching and drilling in high‑grade surface sampling areas of the Lac Coulombe Property.
  • Future Work: Company intends to conduct follow‑up trenching and drilling to further delineate high‑grade copper zones and assess hydrogen potential on the property.
  • Qualified Person: Afzaal Pirzada, P.Geo., reviewed and approved all scientific and technical information in accordance with NI 43‑101.

Notable Quotes

“The initial surface sampling results are highly encouraging and validate the historic showings on Lac Coulombe. With the ATI permit now secured, we can move quickly to more definitive trenching and drilling to unlock the full potential of this district,” – Gurminder Sangha, CEO & Director.
