Kuniko Ltd (ASX:KNI) has drilled multiple mineralized intercepts with massive sulphides in two additional drill holes at its Ertelien Nickel Project, in Norway.
“The exploration team is off to a cracking start this year, first with a successful maiden drilling campaign at the Ertelien Nickel Project, and now with momentum building as the Skuterud Cobalt drilling campaign runs in parallel and drilling at our Undal- Nyberget Copper Project is set to launch in the coming weeks.” CEO, Antony Beckmand, said.
“Spearing further massive sulphide mineralization at the Ertelien Nickel Project continues to encourage us of the potential of this project. Importantly, the observations are correlating with the historic work and drill core inventory, which once validated, will enable the project to be on a fast track toward a maiden resource estimate.
We look forward to continuing to report the results of our first quarter drilling programmes as we progress and as core assay results are received in the time ahead.”
The Ertelien Ni-Cu-Co deposit is a brownfield site located on the highly prospective, wholly owned, Ringerike Battery Minerals Project, in central-southern Norway, north-west of Oslo.
A maiden diamond drilling programme at the Ertelien Nickel Project commenced during January 2023, with a planned 1,470m in five diamond core (DD) holes.
Following the promising observations of the first drill hole, KNI_ER001, Kuniko has completed a second twin hole in a key area of the Ertelien deposit. Previous exploration license holder, Blackstone Ventures Inc., originally drilled a hole known as ER2006-05 in the same section line as ER2006-06B, and in connection with efforts to validate the historical drillhole database, Kuniko has drilled KNI_ER003 to twin this important hole.
Kuniko’s own drillhole KNI_ER003 has intersected notable mineralization over comparable intersections to the original Blackstone drillhole data.
