Emperor Metals Inc. is a high-grade gold exploration and development company focused on Quebec’s Southern Abitibi Greenstone Belt, utilizing AI-driven exploration techniques. The company is dedicated to unlocking the significant resource potential of the Duquesne West Gold Project and the Lac Pelletier Project, both located in this Tier 1 mining district.
The flagship Duquesne West Gold Project hosts a high-grade historical resource of 727,000 oz of gold at 5.42 g/t Au, with an average thickness of 5.71 meters. The 2024 drill program focused on expanding the resource footprint, optimize the stripping ratio, and de-risk a potential mining scenario based on the newly developed conceptual open-pit model, which complements the historical underground model. An updated Mineral Resource Estimate is expected early Q2 2025.
The recently acquired Lac Pelletier Project presents significant near-term production potential and is under a purchase agreement expected to close by March 31, 2025. The project currently hosts a historical estimated mineral resource of 681,200 tonnes grading 4.08 g/t Au for 89,400 oz of gold (Measured and Indicated), along with an additional 1,099,000 tonnes grading 3.89 g/t Au for 137,600 oz of gold (Inferred), as reported in Maritime’s May 11, 2022, press release (available on SEDAR+).
The company is led by a dynamic group of resource sector professionals who have a strong record of success in evaluating and advancing mining projects from exploration through to production, attracting capital and overcoming adversity to deliver exceptional shareholder value.
The flagship Duquesne West Gold Property is located 32 km northwest of the city of Rouyn-Noranda and 10 km east of the town of Duparquet.
