Power Nickel Defines Initial Volume on its High-Grade Cu-Pt-Pd-Au-Ag Zone 5km Northeast of its Main Nisk Deposit
Discovery Hole had over One Oz/Tonne Combined Platinum and Palladium over 7.75 Metres
As previously stated (
Given the triple amount of massive chalcopyrite observed in hole PN-24-044 compared to PN-23-031A, the focus of the Wildcat drilling program has now shifted to defining the extent of the mineralized zone. The remaining EM anomalies shall be tested later.
A series of off-section drillholes were planned on a 50 m grid to start defining the volume of the high-grade PGM mineralized zone. The current hole PN-24-047, planned to test the lateral continuity of the zone to the east, encountered the anticipated zone at a downhole depth of approximately 150 m (Figure 2).
"We are even more encouraged to extend what appears to be a very high-grade PGM rich zone laterally from the initial discovery. We still need assay results to confirm, but it certainly looks better and better. Subsequent holes will continue testing the east and west extensions. I've already alluded to this, but this PGM discovery adds an exciting and valuable dimension to the
"PN-24-047 is the first lateral hit that provides us with an initial geometry and volume of the zone. It also was the first hole where we can see Nickel-bearing pentlandite in the massive sulfide…making a very interesting mix. Can't wait to see the assays on this one! We like what we see so we will be aggressively attacking the zone, starting with closely spaced drillholes and later with more distant step-out holes." stated
