Three styles of nickel-copper mineralisation identified:
1. Extensive disseminated nickel in the Mulga Tank Dunite:
2 m at 1.3% nickel including 1 m at 2% nickel and multiple zones of 0.5 m at 0.5% to 1.2% nickel within an intercept of 115 m at 0.3% nickel;
other thick intercepts of 21 m at 0.4% nickel and 59 m at 0.3% nickel.
2. High tenor veins at the base of the Mulga Tank Dunite:
0.25 m at 3.8% nickel, 0.7% copper and 0.7 g/t PGE and 0.3 m at 0.7% nickel.
3. High tenor nickel sulphide in multiple komatiites in a flow channel:
0.75 m at 0.85% nickel, 0.35% copper and 0.28 g/t PGE (Pt+Pd+Au); and
6.7 m at 0.5% nickel.
Significant follow-up work including drilling required throughout the project area.
Impact Minerals Limited
(ASX:IPT) is pleased to announce that assays from its maiden drill programme at the Mulga Tank Project 200 km north east of Kalgoorlie have confirmed the widespread presence of nickel and copper sulphide mineralisation over an area of about 15 sq km within and close to the Mulga Tank Dunite within E39/988 (Impact 20% and earning a further 50% from Golden Cross Resources Limited).
