LaFleur Minerals announced wide gold intercepts from its drilling program at the Swanson Gold Project, confirming mineralization continuity and supporting expansion beyond current resource and open-pit limits, which strengthens the project's development prospects tied to a planned mill restart.

LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) (FSE: 3WK0) reported results from its ongoing drilling program at the Swanson Gold Project, highlighting broad and continuous gold mineralization that supports expansion potential beyond the current mineral resource model and planned open-pit limits.

The company said the infill program successfully confirmed continuity of mineralization across large gaps in historic drilling data while also identifying higher-grade sub-intervals, including 232.0 g/t gold over 0.5 meters. LaFleur said the results strengthen confidence in the scale of the Swanson system as it advances development plans tied to its recently released preliminary economic assessment and planned restart of the 100%-owned Beacon Gold Mill.
