Azincourt Energy Completes Harrier Prospecting Program and Commences Drilling At Snegamook Uranium Deposit
Azincourt Energy Corp., a company listed on the TSX.V and FSE, has successfully completed its 2026 prospecting program at the Harrier Project in Labrador, Canada. The program focused on the Snegamook uranium deposit, which is located within the Central Mineral Belt. Over 19,851 meters of drill holes were completed on the project, with 124 drill holes targeting the Snegamook uranium deposit alone.
Historical surface rock samples revealed grades up to 7.48% U₃O₈, while samples from 10 separate zones returned more than 1.0% U₃O₈.
The company believes that additional systematic exploration is warranted, but historical results have not been independently verified. The diamond drilling program began in late September and is expected to consist of approximately 2,000 meters in 6 to 7 drill holes at the Snegamook uranium deposit. The goal of this drilling is to gather more geological and confirmatory information for a potential future mineral resource estimate, subject to verification of historical data, the results of the 2026 program, and the availability of sufficient data meeting NI 43-101 requirements.
CEO Mark Tommasi stated, "With prospecting completed and drilling now underway at Snegamook, we are moving into the next phase of exploration at Harrier." The company's immediate focus is on testing selected historical mineralized intervals at Snegamook while prioritizing targets across the broader project for future drilling.
