LaFleur Minerals Reports Assay Results Highlighting 2.05 g/t Au over 158.25 metres, Confirming Strong Gold Continuity at Swanson Gold Project

Executive Summary

• LaFleur Minerals released assay results from 12 validation drill holes at the Swanson Gold Deposit, confirming strong gold continuity with multiple long‑interval intercepts (e.g., 2.05 g/t Au over 158.25 m).
• Additional regional exploration of 28 holes (6,617 m) intersected shallow mineralization, including a notable 5.78 g/t Au over 2.05 m at the historic Jackson Showing.
• Results bolster the upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) and support Swanson’s role as a long‑term feed source for the nearby Beacon Gold Mill.

Key Details

• Validation Drill Highlights
• Hole SW-25-066: 2.05 g/t Au over 158.25 m (incl. 8.61 g/t over 6.40 m, 11.90 g/t over 0.50 m).
• Hole SW-25-075: 2.97 g/t Au over 66.0 m (incl. 91.10 g/t Au over 1.5 m).
• Hole SW-25-077: 3.15 g/t Au over 51.4 m (incl. 92.9 g/t Au over 0.75 m).

• Additional intercepts: 1.15 g/t Au over 80.3 m; 1.37 g/t Au over 80.8 m; 2.97 g/t Au over 66.0 m with 91.1 g/t high‑grade zone.

• Regional Exploration Highlights

• Hole SW-25-042: 5.78 g/t Au over 2.05 m (Jackson Showing).
• Hole SW-25-040: 1.58 g/t Au over 11.05 m.
• Hole SW-25-041: 0.67 g/t Au over 7.45 m.

• Hole SW-25-046: 1.41 g/t Au over 6.00 m.

• Program Scope

• Validation drilling: 12 holes, total 2,619 m.

• Regional exploration: 28 holes, total 6,617 m across a 18,300‑ha (459‑claim) property.

• Technical Context

• Data verification performed per NI 43‑101 by Qualified Person Louis Martin, P.Geo.

• QA/QC procedures included certified reference materials, blanks, and field duplicates; assays conducted by AGAT Laboratories using fire assay with atomic absorption finish.

• Implications for Development

• Strong continuity and high‑grade zones improve confidence in the mineral resource model, expected to enhance resource classification and reduce strip ratios.
• Supports a robust PEA anticipated within the next month, positioning Swanson as a scalable open‑pit source of mill feed for the fully permitted Beacon Gold Mill.

Notable Quotes

• Paul Ténière, CEO: “The validation drilling has confirmed the size, continuity, and widespread nature of gold mineralization at Swanson, delivering compelling technical information that de‑risks the project and strengthens its development thesis.”
