IntroductionGéologie Québec presents all the targets of economic

interest identifi ed during its 2012 geoscience projects. Geo-science knowledge acquisition is one of the main missions of Géologie Québec. This knowledge is acquired in order to encourage the mining industry to develop Québec’s mineral resources by increasing exploration activity and discovering new deposits.

During their fi eldwork, geologists of the Ministère des Ressources naturelles identifi ed zones with a favourable geological setting for mineral exploration. These areas of interest have not been studied in detail but warrant further investigations by exploration companies. Newly acquired data on these areas of interest will be made public during Québec Mines 2012.

2012 Mineral Exploration TargetsIn this document, a target corresponds to a zone where

the geological setting is favourable for mineral exploration. The data provided on these targets are essentially based on fi eld observations and are not, for the moment, archived in Québec’s Geomining Information System (SIGEOM). They may eventually be classifi ed as a “showing” once their eco-nomic value has been confi rmed, notably by geochemical analyses.

As a result of the geoscience projects completed in 2012, 61 targets have been identifi ed. There are three categories of

targets: (1) ponctual targets measuring less than 100 metres, (2) local targets between 100 metres and 1 kilometre in size, and (3) regional targets greater than 1 kilometre in size.

Target locations are shown on the map of Québec and briefl y described in a table including, among other, their precise geographical location, the name of the project from which they originate and the corresponding poster number. For further information, those who plan to attend Québec Mines 2012 are invited to consult the posters of knowledge acquisition projects and meet the project geologists, to fi nd out more about these new exploration targets and about the mineral potential in Québec’s various regions. In addition, these various targets are located on the site “ Gestion des titres miniers, GESTIM “ at the following address:

https://gestim.mines.gouv.qc.ca/MRN_GestimP_Presentation/ODM02101_login.aspx

For further details concerning our geoscience knowledge acquisition projects, interested parties can inquire at the Bureau d’exploration géologique du Québec or communicate by e-mail with the persons in charge:

Ministère des Ressources naturelles et de la Faune; PRO 2012-02 8 pages. (This document identifi es new exploration targets including 10 uranium-dominant targets from two geophysical airborne magnetic and gamma ray spectrometry surveys over Labrador Trough area and Core Zone of the Churchill Province).

Please note that other areas of economic interest identifi ed though an evaluation of the potential for orogenic gold mineralization north of the Ungava Orogen will also be presented at the Quebec Mining 2012, poster 359. Finally, other targets have been indentifi ed during 2012 in the following publications:
