Apr 28, 2010 (A Wilson) - Grab samples collected by Wallbridge in 2006 returned assays up to 8.42%Cu, 1.23% Ni, 4.01 g/t Pt, 5.31 g/t Pd and 0.08 g/t Au. The most significant intercepts came from drill hole WIS-078 which returned 0.5 m of 26.69 g/t TPM, 2.35% Cu, 1.25% Ni and 13.7 m of 0.99 g/t TPM, 0.11% Cu and 0.04% Ni. Mineralization in the trenches had very limited strike length (3 m). There are several small discontinuous chalcopyrite stringers less than 1 m long and 1 cm wide. The stringers fill brittle fractures.
