Abcourt apppoints Robert Gagnon as Vice President Exploration
12 July 2023 - 9:00PM
Abcourt Mines Inc. (“Abcourt” or the
“Corporation”) (TSX Venture: ABI) is pleased to
announce the appointment of Mr. Robert Gagnon, geo., as
Vice-President Exploration for Abcourt.
In his new role, Mr. Gagnon will lead all
exploration activities on Abcourt's mining properties, including
the evaluation of partnerships to accelerate the development of
certain Abcourt properties.
Robert Gagnon holds a bachelor's degree in
geology from the University of Quebec in Chicoutimi and is a member
of the Ordre des géologues du Québec. Mr. Gagnon has extensive
experience in managing exploration projects and evaluating
deposits. He was President of Pershimex Resources Corporation from
2013 until its amalgamation with Abcourt in May 2023 and as such,
has a very good knowledge of the mining properties thus acquired
from Pershimex.
Abcourt owns several gold and polymetallic
properties that have strong exploration potential in Abitibi.
Abcourt also owns the Sleeping Giant mine and mill which could
potentially be fed by other deposits which would complement the
future production of Sleeping Giant. As an example, Abcourt
recently published a mineral resource estimate for the Discovery
and Flordin deposits located 80 km from the Sleeping Giant
mill.
Pascal Hamelin, President and Chief Executive
Officer, comments: "Abcourt continues to implement its action plan
to develop the mining camp around its Sleeping Giant plant, and
Robert will be an asset to our team in order to accelerate the
development of our existing deposits or the discovery of new
deposits within our properties. His expertise and
knowledge of Abitibi will make a significant contribution to
Abcourt. »
Robert Gagnon, VP Exploration, comments: “I am
pleased to join the Abcourt team and to be able to bring my
expertise of nearly 25 years in mineral exploration. Our portfolio
of diversified properties, combined with the plant and the Sleeping
Giant mine, makes our company an example of complete integration in
Abitibi. I am proud to be able to integrate the structure set up by
Abcourt and thus be able to contribute to the development of its
quality assets. »
