Argyle Announces Research Partnership With the National Institute of Scientific Research (INRS) to Conduct Phase 1 Exploration Work on Silica Project in Quebec
Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - July 22, 2024) - Argyle Resources Corp. (CSE: ARGL) (FSE: ME0) is pleased to announce the commencement of its silica exploration program on Matapedia-Awantjish property (the "Property") undertaken in partnership with the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS).
加拿大卡爾加里-(新聞稿2024年7月22日)。Argyle Resources Corp. (CSE:ARGL) (FSE:ME0)很高興地宣佈,與Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS)合作,在Matapedia-Awantjish產權(“產權”)上啓動其硅礦勘探計劃。
The Matapedia silica property includes 16 cells located in the lower St-Lawrence area, some 36km from the coastal village of Grand-Metis. This general region also houses port infrastructure as well as railway connecting the area to the Great Lakes or to the eastern USA. The Property has also been the subject of historical exploration work by the Quebec Ministry of Natural Resources.
Matapedia硅礦產權包括16個單元,位於下聖勞倫斯地區,距離Grand-Metis海濱村莊約36公里。該地區還擁有港口基礎設施以及鐵路,將該地區連接到五大湖或美國東部。此項產權還曾經受到魁北克自然資源部歷史勘探工作的研究。
The Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS) is a premier research and training institute. Professor Richer-LaFlèche's team possesses outstanding expertise in geology, geochemistry, and geophysics, particularly in the areas of industrial silica. Pr Richer-LaFleche and his team carried out, for Orbite Aluminae, the first geological and geophysical studies on the Grande-Vallee aluminous clay project (Orignal Formation) (Orbite Aluminae).
Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique(INRS)是一所傑出的研究和培訓機構。Richer-LaFlèche教授的團隊在岩石學、地球化學和地球物理學方面擁有傑出的專業知識,特別是在工業硅方面。Richer-LaFleche教授及其團隊曾爲Orbite Aluminae在Grande-Vallee鋁礬土項目(Orignal Formation)(Orbite Aluminae)上開展了第一次地質和地球物理研究。
Jeff stevens, CEO of Argyle Resources commented, "the INRS will bring valuable insights and technical capabilities to the silica exploration program. Their involvement will help to facilitate a rigorous management of the phase 1 exploration process at our silica properties."
Argyle Resources公司的首席執行官Jeff Stevens評論說:“INRS將爲硅礦勘查計劃帶來寶貴的見解和技術能力。他們的參與將有助於在我們的硅礦產權上實施嚴格的第一階段勘查流程管理。”

Silica is an oxide of silicon (silicon dioxide) which is primarily found in quartzite. High Purity Quartzite (HPQ) is ideal for industrial processing. Typically, quartz deposits are widely dispersed in nature, but the presence of ore bodies capable of yielding high-purity quartz is exceedingly rare. Silicon, derived from high-quality quartz, is the most common material for semiconductors due to its high stability as an atom, and that it doesn't break easily under high temperatures.
硅是硅(二氧化硅)的一種氧化物,主要存在於石英岩中。高純化石英石(HPQ)非常適合工業加工。通常,石英礦牀在自然界中廣泛分佈,但能產生高純度石英的礦體的存在非常罕見。由高品質石英衍生的硅是半導體中最常見的材料之一,因其作爲一個原子的高穩定性以及在高溫下不易斷裂的特性。
The European Union has declared Silicon a critical raw material as a wide range of modern technologies depend on it to make various industrial and consumer products. Silicon was added to the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) List of Critical Materials for Energy in 2023. And on June 10, 2024, the Government of Canada updated its Critical Minerals List, emphasizing the growing importance of silicon metal in key technologies for a low-carbon economy, such as semiconductors, batteries, and solar panels. This aims to support Canadian mining and manufacturing by ensuring they can meet increasing global demand for sustainably sourced minerals.
歐盟已將硅材料列爲關鍵原材料,因爲許多現代技術都需要它來生產各種工業和消費品。硅於2023年被添加到美國能源部(DOE)的關鍵材料清單中。2024年6月10日,加拿大政府更新了其關鍵礦物清單,強調硅金屬對低碳經濟的關鍵技術(如半導體、電池和太陽能電池板)的日益重要性。這旨在支持加拿大采礦和製造業,以確保它們能夠滿足日益增長的全球對可持續採礦的需求。
"Argyle Resources is grateful to be working in a research partnership with the INRS, with their expertise and guidance being invaluable. We are excited to initiate a work program this season and will share details for both in short order," Jeff Stevens further commented, "With silicon being recently added to the Canadian Critical Minerals List in 2024, we are excited to be pursing exploration efforts on our three 100% owned silica exploration properties in Quebec, beginning with Matapedia silica property in 2024."
“Argyle Resources很榮幸能與INRS開展研究合作,他們的專業知識和指導是非常寶貴的。我們很高興本季度能夠啓動工作計劃,並將很快分享詳情,”Jeff Stevens進一步評論道,“2024年硅被加入到加拿大關鍵礦產清單中後,我們非常興奮地開始在我們在魁北克擁有的三個100%的硅礦產權上開展勘探工作,首先是在Matapedia硅礦產權上。”
