Surimeau hosts several target areas, both for critical and strategic metals, as well as for gold, the company said, adding that the targets have been identified on the basis of prior work carried out by Renforth on the property, including verification of the presence of mineralization.

"The zinc-nickel occurrences at Surimeau bear a striking geological similarity to the Outokumpu, Finland deposits, which have a similar, and unusual, association of these two elements in what appears to be a tectonically juxtaposed magmatic nickel and zinc-rich volcanogenic massive sulfide-type settings”, Renforth’s principal technical advisor on the Surimeau property, James Franklin, said in a statement.

“This geological setting is an almost unique association in Canada (there is at least one other occurrence), but a substantial and productive resource in Finland", he added.
