Jun 23, 2016 (A Wilson) - Sulphides occur in fine grained dissemination, mm blebs and stringers in quantities up to 5%. Locally 2-4 mm chalcopyrite stringers are observed. An assay from this zone ranged up to 55 ppm palladium, 184 ppm platinum and 39 ppb Au. The best assays from DEN-03 returned values of 3579 ppm Cu, 5624 ppm Ni, 71 ppb Au, 144 ppb Pt, 243 ppb Pd and 278 Au+Pt+Pd. Best assays from DEN-05 returned 1795 ppm Cu, 2212 ppm Ni, 58 ppb Au, 189 ppb Pt and 305 ppb Pd. Palladium values in DDH DEN-05 returned values up to 730 ppb over 0.52 m. The highest copper values from the same drill hole were 2077 ppm Cu and 4560 ppm Ni over 0.59 m. On the south contact outside the New Wine Showing, the best sample returned 84 ppm Pd, 81 ppm Pt and 23 ppm Au.
