Seymour and Wallbridge begin Nickel-Copper-PGE exploration programme
at Wakami
VANCOUVER, April 13 /CNW/ - Seymour Exploration Corporation and Joint
Venture partner Wallbridge Mining Company Limited have commenced work on
the Wakami nickel-copper property located in the southwestern part of
the Swayze greenstone belt in Ontario. The Wakami property covers a 2 km
x 1.5 km magnetic anomaly. There is no known outcrop in the area, which
is covered by a sand plain. A recent OGS publication, "Magmatic
Nickel-Copper-PGE Occurrences and Ultramafic Bodies in Ontario"
identifies the feature as the Wakami peridotite intrusion, on the basis
of boulders found immediately south of the anomaly.
A high-resolution airborne magnetic survey was recently completed to
better define the characteristics of the target magnetic feature. The
magnetic data provides a clear image of the complex target anomaly which
covers an area of approximately three square kilometers. These data will
also be beneficial for the exploration of the surrounding area. The
survey has detailed several structural features and dykes in the area
which will assist in the interpretation of the structural setting.
All available information for the area including the nickel and
copper soil geochemical anomalies, the presence of ultramafic boulders
and the magnetic anomaly support the possible presence of an environment
conducive to hosting magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization.
On the strength of the favourable indicators, the Joint Venture
partners have developed a $600,000 exploration program for the property.
Phase 1 of this program is scheduled to commence in early May, and will
include linecutting, geological mapping and prospecting, soil
geochemistry, and ground geophysics.
