Renforth Resources Inc (CSE:RFR, OTCQB:RFHRF). has announced additional positive assay results from the 2021 portion of the 15,000 meters (m) drilled at its Parbec surface gold deposit in Quebec.
In a statement, the company said the interval of 9.5m of 4.66 grams per ton (g/t) gold included a sub-interval of 1m which assayed 31.2 g/t of gold.
Renforth said the drill program, which consisted of 49 drill holes, was designed to infill gaps within the mineralized model, as well as test several historic holes in order to validate 13,000m of drill data excluded from the May 2020 Mineral Resource Estimate for Parbec and to begin to test the deposit at depth.

The company also said that assay results from 10 drill holes remain to be received and released once completed.
Meanwhile, Renforth said it is currently planning a return to the field this fall on the wholly owned 260 square-kilometer (km 2) Surimeau battery metals property, specifically the 5km long Victoria West target, with nickel, copper, and zinc sulphides observed on surface and within initial drilling.
The company intends to, upon receipt of required permits, strip an area of surface mineralization at Victoria West in order to get a better look at the mineralized system between and outside of two areas of the existing outcrop. In addition, Renforth also intends to fly a detailed magnetic survey and produce a high-resolution photo-mosaic of Victoria West using drone-mounted geophysical equipment.
A drone survey is a low-impact and cost-effective way to obtain very accurate information with a quick turnaround, and the data will be used in the planning of Renforth’s next drilling at Surimeau.
