The Brabant Lake zinc-copper property, located in central northern Saskatchewan, is Manicouagan's most advanced project. The property hosts a deposit that was drill tested by Phelps Dodge Canada in 1994. The deposit is found in two zones; the Upper Zone and the Lower Zone. Past drilling focused on the Upper Zone however, Lower Zone grades are typically twice that of the Upper Zone making the Lower Zone a priority exploration target. Diamond drilling by Manicouagan initiated in late 2006 confirmed higher-grade portions of the deposit, and results from the first 20 holes from the Lower Zone have returned an average grade of 9.40% Zinc over 6.43 metres.
