Sep 27, 2023 (C Lee) - Sulphide mineralization occurs in fractured and sheared gabbro. Mineralized zones near drill hole sites measure 5 to 50 meters squared. Grab samples from these zones yielded up to 2.3% Cu and up to 1.36% Ni. The sulphides occur as disseminated and blebby, with lesser veinlets, breccia zones and net-textured patches. Rare semi-massive (25–75% total sulphide) to massive (>75% total sulphide) sulphide veins and pods occur near the basal contact of the intrusion. (AF 20000020478)
