Renforth Resources Inc (CSE:RFR, OTCQB:RFHRF) announced it has started a 3,000-metre drill program on its Surimeau district property to get a better sense of the nickel-cobalt-copper-zinc mineralization.
The firm recently intersected mineralization in trenching at Lalonde.
Drilling will also occur deeper under previously drilled nickel-cobalt-copper-zinc mineralized intercepts in the vicinity of the Victoria stripped area located approximately four kilometers south of Lalonde.

Renforth is planning to sink six holes at Lalonde and another three at Victoria, according to a statement.
"We are, of course, happy to be drilling again, especially at Lalonde which has no surviving historic drill information,” Renforth CEO Nicole Brewster said in a statement.
“Deeper drill data at Victoria will help us in our modelling of the mineralization and our geochemical search for the source, or a greater concentration, of the VMS mineralization we have seen to date.”
Brewster added: “With the size of the two mineralized systems we have lots of work to do, as winter arrives our geologists are happy to stay in town and drive to the drill and core shack for this program, developing our knowledge base for these two battery metals mineralized systems in Quebec.”
Renforth is focused on finding battery metals in Quebec. Its wholly owned 330-square kilometer Surimeau property hosts several known areas of polymetallic "battery metals" mineralization, each with various levels of exploration, as well as a significant amount of unexplored ground.
