Noront gave visual info on this core but as yet no assay received. This core contains a lot of massive sulphides and yes one would expect some great results. Here's the visual.


Hole NOT-07-27 was drilled at local grid collar location 50+60E at 12+15N with an initial azimuth of 90 degrees and an initial dip of -45 degrees. After passing through 16.8 meters of overburden and limestone this hole entered granodiorite and remained in granodiorite until 112.5 meters, when it entered mineralized peridotite until 117 meters downhole. Massive sulphides were then encountered between 117 and 152 meters followed by semi-massive sulphides until 155 meters. Mineralized peridotite was then encountered for the next 10 meters until 162 meters, followed by 6 meters (until 168 meters) of weakly mineralized to barren peridotite. The hole then entered granodiorite and was terminated at 183 meters. This hole was drilled along the same E-W section as holes NOT-07-05, 06, 07, and 08 to delineate the mineralized zone in more detail.
