Abcourt Intersects a New Mineralized Zone in a Hole Grading 0.9 g/t Gold over 19 Metres on its Flordin Property

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 gt gold over 19 metres, including 3.1 gt 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.

Juniors Gain Momentum as Gold Price Surges

As the gold price continues its upward trajectory, investors are turning their attention to junior exploration companies poised to capitalize on this bullish trend.

The gold price has reached unprecedented levels in 2025, with spot gold peaking at US$3,495.65 per ounce on April 22nd. This surge has been attributed to a combination of factors, including inflationary pressures, central bank demand and geopolitical tensions.

For junior exploration companies, these elevated prices present transformative opportunities, reshaping project viability and investor appeal.

Gold Price Hits New Record, Touching US$3,500 for First Time

The gold price reached yet another record high on Tuesday (April 22), hitting US$3,500 per ounce.

In trading on Monday (April 21), the precious metal surged past the US$3,400 mark; it then briefly touched US$3,500 early on Tuesday morning before settling in the US$3,425 to US$3,450 range.

Gold has been on the rise all year, with the latest boost coming after US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell spoke at the Economic Club of Chicago on April 16. In his remarks, he said he expects US President Donald Trump's tariff policy to negatively impact American economic growth and further fuel inflation in the country.

Gold's momentum was boosted in the following days as Trump made his own statements suggesting he is seeking ways to remove Powell as the head of the US central bank. However, the Fed operates at arm's length, and it would require an act of Congress to remove Powell from his post. Powell's term is set to expire in May 2026.
