Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc. [TSXV: LME; OTCQB: LMEFF; FSE: 5YD] reported assay results from company’s recent Fall diamond drilling program totalling 1,821 metres completed in eight drill holes at the A-Zone/McLeod/CRK Zone at the Ishkōday Project, located in the Beardmore–Geraldton Greenstone Belt of north-western Ontario, approximately 220 km northeast of Thunder Bay.
Drill Hole LBX25-101 — Highlights: 1.50 metres at 0.88 g/t Au, 13.60 g/t Ag, 0.24% Cu, 5.61% Zn (159.20 m to 160.70 m), including 0.50 metres at 2.06 g/t Au, 31.10 g/t Ag, 0.53% Cu, 12.35% Zn (159.70 m to 160.20 m); 1.60 metres at 1.16 g/t Au, 10.21 g/t Ag, 0.30% Cu, 4.39% Zn (187.70 m to 189.30 m) and 3.00 metres at 0.97 g/t Au, 4.04 g/t Ag, 0.14% Cu, 2.21% Zn (190.50 m to 193.50 m).
Drill Hole LBX25-102 — Highlights: 0.50 metres at 3.89 g/t Au, 38.70 g/t Ag, 0.42% Cu, 5.37% Zn (45.00 m to 45.50 m); 1.00 metre at 2.04 g/t Au, 0.80 g/t Ag, 0.01% Cu, 0.02% Zn (108.50 m to 109.50 m); 2.04 metres at 2.63 g/t Au, 2.38 g/t Ag, 0.02% Cu, 0.17% Zn 205.96 m to 208.00 m), including 1.00 metre at 5.14 g/t Au, 4.60 g/t Ag, 0.04% Cu, 0.30% Zn (207.00 m to 208.00 m) and 0.50 metres at 2.60 g/t Au, 13.60 g/t Ag, 0.10% Cu, 6.75% Zn (230.30 m to 230.80 m).
Drill holes LBX25-101 and LBX25-102 were planned as part of Laurion’s model-guided A-Zone program to test interpreted mineralized horizons and strengthen continuity across the northeastern portion of the zone. The drill holes were positioned to validate structural interpretations and increase confidence in zones where both historical drilling and more recent company-led drill programs have identified broad anomalous gold mineralization with localized higher-grade intervals. The assay results provide additional technical data that will support the refinement of future targeting and improve predictability for the company’s subsequent drill campaigns.
“We are advancing the A-Zone through disciplined, high-confidence drill targeting designed to create measurable project value,” said Cynthia Le Sueur-Aquin, President and CEO. “Our objective is to complete drilling that answers specific geological questions, strengthens continuity, and improves predictability — because better technical clarity today supports stronger outcomes tomorrow for our shareholders.”
Drill hole LBX25-101 is situated approximately 265 metres southwest of LBX25-100, with LBX25-102 positioned an additional 335 metres southwest, extending drill coverage along the interpreted A-Zone mineralized corridor into a sparsely drilled area. LBX25-101 was established as a step-back collar to test projected mineralized horizons and structural continuity beyond the denser drill grid. Targeting incorporated projected intercept positions from holes LBX22-055, LBX22-056, LBX22-056A, LBX22-057, and historic hole K56 to improve geological and structural constraint across this portion of the zone.
Drill hole LBX25-102 was collared adjacent to the access road approximately 1.0 km south of the River Road, located north of the McLeod Zone and southwest of drill hole LBX21-041, to support continued drill coverage along this portion of the interpreted mineralized trend. This collar location enabled efficient drill access while extending geological coverage into a less densely tested portion of the corridor.
Intervals represent core length. The interval widths reported are down-hole widths. The true widths of the mineralized zones are not known at this time as there is insufficient information to determine the orientation of the mineralization.
Laurion Mineral Exploration is a mid-stage junior mineral exploration company with 278,716,413 common shares outstanding, with approximately 73.6% held by insiders and long-term “Friends and Family” investors, reflecting strong alignment between management, the Board, and shareholders.
The company’s primary focus is the 100%-owned, district-scale Ishkōday Project, a 57 km² land package hosting gold-rich polymetallic mineralization.
