QUEBEC – Vancouver's Nickel North Exploration is pleased with the initial diamond drilling results from the Hawk Ridge property in the Ungava Bay area.
Assays from the Gamma zone included 7.01 metres grading 2.11% Ni, 2.73% Cu and 0.62 g/t PGM from a depth of 60.5 metres. Within that intersection were 4.35 metres at 3.37% Ni, 4.28% Cu and 0.86 g/t PGM and 3.35 metres at 4.24% Ni, 4.70% Cu and 0.95 g/t PGM.
The Gamma zone occurs near the middle of the Hawk Ridge property and at the surface, said Nickel North, the mineralized horizon can be traced for at least 850 metres along strike. The mineralized zone consists of medium-to-coarse-grained interstitial copper-nickel-platinum group magmatic sulphides and disseminated sulphides in a coarse grained gabbro. Drilling in 2013 confirmed that the mineralized horizon maintains it mineralogical character and metal grades and widths down-dip for at least 380 metres.
