down-hole borehole geophysics on each
completed hole to best determine the ori-
entation and extent of the electromagnetic
anomaly.
A total of 14 holes were drilled last
year in the area outlined by Anomaly D.
The first assay results were released in
November.
The first four holes (3,671 metres) inter-
sected a disseminated halo of nickel-copper
mineralization with credits in palladium,
platinum, gold, silver and cobalt. The best
interval from this first round of assays was
in hole EL-17-04 which averaged 7.2%
nickel, 3.4% copper, 0.82 g/t palladium,
0.78 g/t platinum, 0.40 g/t gold, 10 g/t
silver and 0.195% cobalt over 4.8 metres.
This was intersected at the bottom of a
broader 48.2-metre interval starting 108.4
metres down-hole which averaged 1.1%
nickel, 0.69% copper, 0.38 g/t palladium,
0.23 g/t platinum, 0.16 g/t gold, 3.1 g/t sil-
ver and 0.032% cobalt.
Assay results from the company's
"discovery hole" were announced in
December. Hole EL-17-14 was collared
200 metres east of the historic E&L miner-
alization and was drilled towards the east
into an area untested by the 1960s Silver
Standard drilling.
The hole intersected massive sulphide
mineralization that averaged 8.3% nickel
and 4.2% copper over 16.75 metres within
a broader 40.4-metre section averaging
3.9% nickel and 2.3% copper from 100.4
to 140.8 metres down hole (approximate
true width). The 16.75-metre massive
sulphide intercept also included 6.4 g/t
combined platinum-palladium, 0.19%
cobalt, 1.1 g/t gold and 11.1 g/t silver.
Additional assay results from hole
EL-17-09 and 10 also returned excellent
results. Hole 10 cut 8.3% nickel, 4.1%
copper, 0.19% cobalt, 4.3 g/t palladium,
1.9 g/t platinum, 1.1 g/t gold and 10.2 g/t
silver over 10.3 metres (approximate true
width). Holes 9 and 10 tested the same
target intersected in discovery hole 14 but
from a different drill pad.
More importantly, however, the com-
pany reported that it observed structural
features in the rocks (pipe-like struc-
