The La Grande Project
What is the La Grande Gold Project?
La Grande is the flagship gold project of Lux Metals Corp., located in Quebec's James Bay region. The Project is anchored by the high-grade Zone 32 gold system, where over 40,000 metres of historic diamond drilling have outlined gold mineralization across 600 metres of strike and 350 metres of vertical depth, with the system open in all directions. Read the full La Grande Project overview.
Where is the La Grande Project located?
La Grande sits in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec, Canada, approximately 85 kilometres southeast of Radisson, the regional service hub. The Property is transected by the all-season Transtaiga Road and lies within the same regional belt as the producing Eleonore gold mine.
How big is the La Grande Project?
The Project comprises 300 Exclusive Exploration Rights covering 15,357.35 hectares in two contiguous blocks, spanning approximately 40 kilometres of prospective Archean greenstone belt. The Zone 32 gold system accounts for roughly two kilometres of this trend; the remaining 38 kilometres have seen limited or no drilling.
What infrastructure serves the La Grande Project?
La Grande benefits from year-round access via the all-season Transtaiga Road, Hydro-Quebec's LG-3 airstrip directly east of the Property with the Sakami Camp 10 kilometres away, a high-voltage power transmission line crossing the Property, and year-round helicopter support from Radisson. Few exploration-stage projects match this position. Full detail in the James Bay Gold District overview.
Zone 32 and Historic Drilling
What is the Zone 32 gold system?
Zone 32 is the high-grade core of the La Grande Project. Historic exploration delineated a shear-hosted gold mineralized envelope extending 600 metres along strike, 350 metres in vertical depth, and approximately 300 metres in horizontal width, open along strike, at depth, and laterally. Related zones in the same corridor include Pari, Breche, Mico-Milan, the Vein Zone, Zone 30 down-plunge, and Zone 103 immediately north.
What are the best historic drill results at La Grande?
The headline historic intercept is 83.8 metres at 7.95 g/t gold (hole LGS97-98), within a broader interval of 103.8 metres at 6.52 g/t gold. Other notable intercepts include 56.0 metres at 2.73 g/t (LGS97-83), 38.5 metres at 4.32 g/t (LGS98-125), and 36.0 metres at 3.37 g/t (LGS97-103). The full intercept set and geological context are in the Zone 32 article.
Historic drill results were generated by previous operators of the Property. Reported lengths are downhole (core) lengths; true widths have not been determined. The independent qualified person inspected drill core from a representative subset of mineralized intervals and considers the drilling database to be internally consistent and generally reliable, though QA/QC documentation prior to 2003 is incomplete. Refer to the NI 43-101 Technical Report dated January 12, 2026, on SEDAR+ for complete details.
Does La Grande have a mineral resource estimate?
La Grande does not have a current mineral resource estimate. Historical estimates were completed for Zone 32 between 1999 and 2011 by previous operators; these predate current CIM Definition Standards, have not been verified, and should not be relied upon. They are discussed with full cautionary language in the Zone 32 article. The 2026 drill program is designed to expand and infill the Zone 32 system.
What type of gold deposit is La Grande?
Zone 32 is interpreted as a shear-zone, intrusion-hosted Archean orogenic gold system, hosted within the La-Grande-Sud Tonalite at the structural contact with mafic volcanic rocks of the Yasinski Group. This is the same deposit family responsible for many of the Superior Province's most productive gold camps. The deposit model, mineralization styles, and alteration are detailed in the Zone 32 article.
How deep does gold mineralization extend at La Grande?
Gold mineralization at Zone 32 has been confirmed from surface to a vertical depth of approximately 300 metres in the main envelope, and the system remains open. Historic hole LGS12-224 intersected 1.93 g/t gold over 37.0 metres approximately 400 metres down-plunge from the main envelope, confirming the system extends well beyond the currently defined zone.
Historic drill results were generated by previous operators of the Property. Reported lengths are downhole (core) lengths; true widths have not been determined. Refer to the NI 43-101 Technical Report dated January 12, 2026, on SEDAR+ for complete details.
The 2026 Exploration Program
What is Lux Metals' 2026 exploration program?
The 2026 program at La Grande includes an initial 5,000 metre diamond drill campaign at Zone 32, field mapping, prospecting and surface sampling across priority areas, and evaluation of ultra high-resolution drone magnetic surveys. The program was outlined in the Company's May 26, 2026 news release following receipt of drill permits.
Has Lux Metals received drill permits for La Grande?
Yes. Lux Metals announced on May 26, 2026 that it received drill permits for the La Grande Gold Project, clearing the regulatory pathway for the 2026 exploration program. Quebec's permitting framework for exploration, including Exclusive Exploration Rights and the MRNF process, is explained in Gold Exploration in Quebec.
When will Lux Metals begin drilling at La Grande?
An initial 5,000 metre diamond drill program at Zone 32 is anticipated to commence in Q3 2026. Drilling will focus on expanding the Zone 32 mineralized envelope down-plunge and along strike, infill drilling within the known system, testing parallel structures, and initial testing of regional targets. Refer to the Company's news releases for current updates.
Planned exploration activities are forward-looking and subject to weather, logistics, financing, and final program design. There is no guarantee that exploration activities will result in the delineation of a mineral resource or an economic ore body. See the forward-looking statements notice at the bottom of this page.
What did the 2026 surface exploration program find?
Field crews completed a two-week program from June 1 to 15, 2026, collecting 100 rock samples across 19 traverses and 55 soil samples across 9 lines in areas of the 40 kilometre trend with limited historical exploration. Widespread sulphide mineralization was observed, and all samples were submitted to AGAT Laboratories for gold and multi-element analysis, with results pending. Full details in the June 25, 2026 news release.
The presence of visible sulphides, alteration, or structural features observed in the field does not necessarily indicate the presence of gold mineralization. These observations are geological indicators only and should not be considered representative of mineral grades or economic potential. Analytical results are pending.
What other gold targets exist beyond Zone 32?
The remaining 38 kilometres of the La Grande trend host several high-priority surface targets. Wogogoosh has returned grab samples up to 34 g/t gold across a 500 metre mineralized strike length, and Orezone has returned grab samples up to 24 g/t gold across a 500 by 200 metre mineralized outcrop exposure. Both occur along the same structural corridor as Zone 32.
Grab samples are selective by nature and are unlikely to represent average grades on the Property. Grab sample results should not be considered representative of the mineralization hosted on the Property as a whole.
Location and Jurisdiction
Why is James Bay a good region to explore for gold?
The James Bay region of Quebec has attracted billions of dollars of investment over the past two decades, anchored by the producing Eleonore gold mine (Dhilmar Ltd.) and a growing roster of advanced projects from Critical Elements Lithium Corporation, Patriot Battery Metals, and Winsome Resources. La Grande sits in the heart of this district. Read the full James Bay Gold District overview.
Is Quebec a good jurisdiction for mineral exploration?
Quebec is one of Canada's most established mining jurisdictions, with a long track record of gold and lithium discovery in the James Bay region and significant provincial infrastructure, including Hydro-Quebec's regional road, airstrip, and power network that directly serves the La Grande Property. Lux Metals received its 2026 drill permits in May. Quebec's permitting, tenure, and investment framework are covered in Gold Exploration in Quebec.
Who is Dahrouge Geological Consulting?
Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd. leads the Company's geological programs at La Grande. Dahrouge is one of the most recognized exploration consulting firms operating in Quebec, with an operational presence in James Bay spanning nearly two decades, and was instrumental in the discovery of Patriot Battery Metals' Corvette lithium deposit.
