- Hole ND‑10‑1 – 4.53 % Ni over 0.7 m at 57.5 m depth.
- Recent Geophysical Survey: TDEM survey conducted 28 Nov 2024–21 Dec 2024 by Expert Geophysics Ltd. to define drill targets.
- Future Plans: Formulation of an exploration program for 2026‑2027, including surface sampling and potential diamond drilling on the Turtle Pond claims.
Notable Quotes
“The Glatz, Double E and Night Danger nickel‑copper showings display similar nickel and copper tenors as what we find near surface at our Kenbridge nickel‑copper‑cobalt project. Acquisition of these claims complement the company's larger objective of developing the Kenbridge nickel‑copper‑cobalt project into an operating mine with a central milling facility.” – Mark Appleby, President & CEO
