Hole GCL09-11, the last hole of the 2009 winter drilling program, returned elevated nickel mineralization grading up to 0.34% nickel over a 2.4-meter drilled width from 372.50 to 374.90 meters, which includes 0.5% nickel over 0.7 meters.
The host rock is a channel peridotite flow horizon similar to that hosting the Langmuir Nickel Discovery Zone (W4), where drilling in May of 2007 had intersected 1.14% nickel over 72.5 meters., and the recent significant W2 Nickel Discovery of 1.72% nickel over 3.0 meters , about 1.5 km east of the Langmuir Nickel Discovery Zone. Company geologists have not yet determined whether this is a new channel flow horizon hosting nickel sulphides or is the same flow horizon hosting nickel mineralization in either the Langmuir Nickel Discovery Zone (W4) or the W2 Discovery.
