Nelligan Project

Work has tested the Renard and Renard Ouest zones mainly and focused on infill drilling to improve resource classification as well as on exploration drilling for potential extensions at depth and along strike of the deposit. “We are very pleased to see the progress of work on the Nelligan project. Despite the difficult conditions imposed by the new reality of sanitary measures, the IAMGOLD team was able to deploy and complete a drilling program that will allow us to know a little more about the deposit. " says Jonathan Hamel, Interim President and CEO of Vanstar. The results of the summer campaign are expected to be released in the coming weeks. A drilling campaign for the winter of 2021 is currently in the planning stages and metallurgical tests will be carried out in the coming months.
