LaFleur Minerals Inc. has appointed Paul Ténière, Peter Espig and Jeff Swinoga to its board of directors as the company advances development of the Swanson Gold Project and plans to restart gold production at the Beacon Gold Mill in Québec's Abitibi Gold Belt. The company stated the new directors bring extensive experience across mining operations, capital markets and corporate leadership, supporting governance and strategic oversight during its next phase of project development and planned production restart in Val-d'Or, Quebec. Preet Gill and Harveer Sidhu have resigned from the board effective March 15, 2026.
The appointments come as LaFleur Minerals focuses on developing district-scale gold projects in the Abitibi Gold Belt near Val-d'Or. The company's mission is to advance mining projects with a focus on its resource-stage Swanson Gold Project and the Beacon Gold Mill, which have significant potential to deliver long-term value. The Swanson Gold Project encompasses approximately 18,304 hectares and includes several prospects rich in gold and critical metals previously held by Monarch Mining, Abcourt Mines, and Globex Mining.
LaFleur has recently consolidated a large land package along a major structural break that hosts the Swanson, Bartec, and Jolin gold deposits and several other showings which make up the Swanson Gold Project. The project is easily accessible by road, allowing direct access to several nearby gold mills, further enhancing its development potential. The company's fully-permitted and refurbished Beacon Gold Mill is capable of processing over 750 tonnes per day and is being considered for processing mineralized material from Swanson and for custom milling operations for other nearby gold projects.
The board changes represent a strategic move to strengthen the company's leadership as it transitions toward production. The new directors' combined expertise in mining operations and capital markets is expected to provide crucial oversight during this critical development phase. The company's focus on the Abitibi Gold Belt, one of Canada's most prolific gold-producing regions, positions it within a well-established mining jurisdiction with existing infrastructure and skilled workforce.
