Exploration Targets
Historical records indicate no assays were done for cobalt nor platinum-palladium, and that all drilling was limited to a small area measuring 330 x 300 metres.
3D geological modelling indicates the main intrusive system is open to the north (down-dip), open to the east, and a 2007 airborne geophysical survey indicates the presence of EM conductors stretching to the east from the known mineralized body.
Quebec government stream geochemical surveys indicate anomalies of up to 400 ppm Ni in sediments, located 1,100 metres north of the deposit. In addition, other ultramafic intrusive bodies on the Property have never been drilled.
The Property is considered highly prospective as the host layered intrusions include websterite, minor harzburgite and norite, as well as high-tenor mineralization (3-4% Ni in 100% sulfides). A Voisey’s Bay type metallogenic model applies well to this property, in that late-tectonic fertile mafic-ultramafic bodies intrude older sulfid
