Abcourt Intersects a New Mineralized Zone in a Hole Grading 0.9 g/t Gold over 19
Metres on its Flordin Property
Rouyn-Noranda, Canada, April 23, 2025– Mines Abcourt Inc. (“Abcourt” or the “Company”) (TSX
Venture : ABI) (OTCQB : ABMBF) is pleased to announce that a new mineralized zone has been
intercepted in hole FL-25-283 on the Flordin Property, located in the Lebel-sur-Quévillon area, Quebec.
This new gold zone, which returned 0.9 g/t gold over 19 metres, including 3.1 g/t gold over 3.1 metres
is located approximately 150 metres deep. The mineralization is included in a zone of alteration rich in
albite (to be confirmed), sericite, carbonate and hematite, thus giving the rock the characteristic reddish-
beige hue. Mineralization consists mainly of clusters of disseminated fine pyrite. It should be noted that
the new gold-bearing zone is magnetic and is found within a large, altered zone, thus giving the rock a
reddish-beige colour contrasting with the rather greenish mafic lavas. A petrographic study is currently
underway to identify the mineralogy of the altered zone. This study is conducted by Ms. Lucie Mathieu,
Ph.D. of GEOX Consulting Inc.
Follow-up by prospecting will be done in the spring in this area to validate the presence of this
characteristic altered zone on the surface. Please note that assay results are still being interpreted for
the latest holes drilled in the Cartwright area and will be released as soon as they are validated by the
technical team. The Flordin project is advantageously located less than 20 km north of the municipality
of Lebel-sur-Quévillon and less than 1.5 km north of the transcontinental network of the Canadian
National Railway.
Pascal Hamelin, President and Chief Executive Officer commented: Hole FL-25-283 intersected a
gold mineralized zone relatively close to surface in an altered zone, still unknown until recently. This type
of alteration and mineralization appears to be different from what is observed in the South Zone area and
the Cartwright area. A petrographic and geochemical study is currently underway and will allow us to
correctly characterize this important altered zone of almost 20 metres thick.
Hole FL-25-283 intersected three different mineralized zones from north to south. The following are
descriptions and summaries of the main geological features of each of the three zones:

Mr. Robert Gagnon, P.Geo. Vice-President, Exploration of the Company, has verified and approved the
technical information contained in this press release.
Quality Control Measures (QA/QC)
Following an analytical quality assurance and quality control program, blank samples and certified
reference materials were added to the NQ half core samples and were shipped and analyzed by the
MSALABS laboratory in Val-d'Or, Quebec using the Photon Assay TM method. The samples were
crushed to 70% passing two millimeters with a 500-gram division for gamma ray assay for gold.
According to MSALABS' internal procedure, blank and standard samples are inserted. MSA operates
numerous laboratories around the world and maintains ISO-17025 accreditation for many metal
determination methods. MSA is an ISO-17025 accredited laboratory for the photonic analysis method.
The drilling, core description and assay preparation work was carried out under the supervision of
Robert Gagnon, P.Geo., Vice-President of Exploration of Abcourt Mines, a Qualified Person as defined
by NI 43-101.
