【SMM Flash】Germanium Mining Advances Germanium-Silver-Zinc Exploration at Lac du Km 35 Project in Québec

Published: Jul 9, 2026 09:23

Germanium Mining has completed a Time Domain Electromagnetic (TDEM) ground survey and commenced an airborne magnetic survey at its wholly owned Lac du Km 35 property in Québec, Canada. The company is targeting germanium-silver-zinc mineralization within the project area and expects final airborne survey results by mid-July 2026.

The survey covers an area surrounding the Laganière showing and several historic geophysical anomalies, with the objective of identifying new conductive zones that may host critical metal mineralization. Sampling at the Laganière showing has returned approximately 186 ppm germanium, representing one of the highest-grade germanium occurrences reported in Québec. Germanium Mining plans to conduct additional mapping and sampling before launching an initial diamond drilling program in early 2027, consisting of approximately six to ten drill holes totaling around 2,500 metres.
