CALGARY, Alberta, Feb. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Integral Metals Corp. (CSE: INTG | FSE: ZK9) (the “Company” or “Integral”) is pleased to announce that it has signed a Letter of Engagement (“LOE”) with WSP Canada Inc. (“WSP”) for an Archaeological Impact Assessment (“AIA”) at the Company’s fully permitted KAP Project, located in the Northwest Territories. This assessment is a key step in the Company’s preparation for a summer 2025 drill program.
The AIA will be led by WSP’s experienced team of archaeologists, who will oversee fieldwork and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements. The initial stages of the project include drafting an application for the assessment, expected to be submitted in March, followed by the development of a detailed work plan to guide the assessment prior to drilling.
“The signing of this engagement with WSP is an important milestone as we prepare to advance exploration on the KAP Project,” said Paul Sparkes, CEO of Integral Metals. “With the project already permitted, we are focused on meeting regulatory obligations while ensuring our activities are conducted responsibly and with respect for cultural heritage. We look forward to working closely with local communities as we move forward.”
The KAP Project is a highly prospective exploration target with historical geochemical and geophysical anomalies, including indications of zinc, gallium, and germanium enrichment, that warrant further investigation through geological sampling and drilling. By proactively completing an AIA, Integral Metals is ensuring compliance while advancing exploration in an environmentally and socially responsible manner.
