Kenorland Minerals has signed purchase agreements to acquire full ownership of additional mineral claims in northern Ontario, Canada.

The company will expand its Lang Lake Project by acquiring 10,200ha of claims from the McVicar Agreement Area in Ontario’s Birch-Uchi Subprovince.

Additionally, Kenorland will augment its Muskrat Dam Project through the purchase of 58,700ha of claims from the Rottenfish Agreement Area within the Muskrat Dam greenstone belt.

The Lang Lake Project currently spans 84,000ha within the Birch-Uchi Subprovince and includes significant geological features such as folded iron formations.

It is situated along the same strike as the Dorothy and Dobie deposits, which together hold 99,600oz of gold, as well as the former Golden Patricia Mine, which produced 635,000oz of gold.

The company has identified a 2km trend of anomalous gold as a priority target following data compilation and digitisation.

A systematic exploration programme is under way, including partially completed phase one light detection and ranging (LiDAR) surveys and a planned phase two initiative involving around 2,000 soil samples for further target development.

Meanwhile, the Muskrat Dam Project covers 142,500ha in the Muskrat Dam greenstone belt, predominantly underlain by volcanic rocks at the boundary between Island Lake and the North Caribou Subprovinces.

Historically focused on volcanogenic massive sulphide and nickel-copper potential, this area also shows potential for orogenic-style gold mineralisation due to its volcanic-sedimentary sequences intersected by major structures.

The company plans to conduct further LiDAR surveys in phase one and collect approximately 4,400 soil samples in phase two to enhance target identification.

For the McVicar Agreement Area, the terms include a $100,000 (C$138,486) cash payment, $250,000 in company shares under escrow and a $1m milestone payment contingent on confirming a significant gold resource, along with a 1% net smelter return royalty.

The Rottenfish Agreement Area acquisition involves a $150,000 cash payment, milestone payments linked to exploration and development achievements, and a similar 1% royalty arrangement.

In December 2025, Kenorland identified significant gold-in-till geochemical anomalies at the Western Wabigoon and Flora projects in north-western Ontario.
