Renforth Resources expands Surimeau district project in Quebec with acquisition of additional mineralized target

Renforth Resources Inc (CSE:RFR) (OTCQB:RFHRF) (FRA:9RR) has informed shareholders that its Surimeau district project in Quebec has increased in size.  In a statement, the company said the project has been expanded to about 260 square kilometers, with the addition of 81 claims covering about 4,520 hectares.   The project hosts the Huston Target, located to the west of the Surimau Target area in the Pontiac, and south of IAMGOLD Corporation’s (NYSE:IAG) (TSE:IMG) (FRA:IAL) Westwood Mine.  READ: Renforth Resources completes spring 2021 drill program at Surimeau district property, Quebec Renforth said the newly acquired area hosts the Huston Target, documented in the early 1980s as a privately-held property, which was subsequently acquired and drilled by Hecla Mining Company (NYSE:HL) (FRA:HCL). Results of drilling by Hecla accessible via SIGEOM document the presence of copper and gold above background levels.   In addition, Renforth said the vendors of the property carried out a small surface grab sample program targeting their interpretation that the property hosts a deep-seated splay of the Cadillac Break, as seen in their inversion of geophysical data. Their field findings included copper and nickel above background levels in grab samples taken from areas of alteration accessible by road and due to logging operations.  Renforth noted it acquired these claims from an unrelated party in November of 2020 via the issuance of 4 million company shares and is now in the process of registering these claims to its name. The acquisition of the Huston Target area was a strategic one, occurring as Renforth finished consolidating the Surimeau project, which encompasses five target areas for base metals and two target areas for precious metals, bringing one of the last historically documented targets into the Surimeau project to make six target areas for base metals. "Renforth has assembled a very large and underexplored land package with known historical showings in both base and precious metals, with road access in mature mining camps,” said CEO Nicole Brewster. “This property is located within one of the best mining-friendly jurisdictions in the world. Our initial drilling on this property, focused on our Victoria West target area, delivering visual nickel, copper and zinc sulphide mineralization in each of 15 holes drilled over only 2.2km of strike within a 20km geophysical anomaly, assays are awaited. I am quite looking forward to exploring our brownfield nickel rich VMS discovery further.” Contact the author: patrick@proactiveinvestors.com Follow him on Twitter @PatrickMGraham
