 over 46 metres (150.9 feet). Hole C1-4B drilled at -70 degrees on the same set-up encountered multiple mineralized mafics from 5.40 m. to 71.01 m. (215.2 feet).

Drill core currently being examined through thin section has clearly demonstrated magmatic, textured sulfides with sections of massive pyrhotite. Individual assays in the massive mineralized areas return multiple individual grades exceeding 2 percent and 3 percent Ni with peak values up to 4.7 percent Ni.

A late-stage barren granitic plug has crosscut the mineralized mafics and consequently dilutes overall grades to some degree. Even so, the holes have returned numerous significant mineralized intercepts, and have proven the existence of a much larger system than previously known.

The following is a summary of the latest drilling results: -0-

Hole C3-7 is a 100 m. step-out to the south of C3-2 previously released. 23.7 m. mineralized section including 6.31 m. (20.7 feet) 1.03 percent Ni, .371 percent Cu, .034 percent Co (1.435 combined). C3-7 is also the farthest hole south in the C3 area and remains 500 m. north of the drilling and the same zone in the C1 area.

Hole C1-4 is the furthest hole drilled to the south of the entire system and is 50 m. from the northern edge of Long Pond Long Pond may refer to:

The data will assist in correlating the association of the two systems.

Down-hole pulse EM was also tested on the last two holes, C1-4 and C1-4B (Holes 22 and 23) and has proven to be extremely useful on a localized basis. The survey has indicated the presence of even better conductive conductive

The property has clearly proven to management that it has the potential to host a significant nickel, copper deposit and we anxiously anticipate an early winter program in 1996.
