NI 43-101 Update (September 2012): 11.1 Mt @ 1.68% Ni, 0.87% Cu, 0.89 gpt Pt and 3.09 gpt Pd and 0.18 gpt Au (Proven & Probable Reserves) / 8.9 Mt @ 1.10% Ni, 1.14% Cu, 1.16 gpt Pt and 3.49 gpt Pd and 0.30 gpt Au (Inferred Resource)
This is the 43-101 in very nice terms from the website...
It shows all metals not just the Ni.. Are they going to update all metals in the 43-101 because the PGE's could be more than double or tripple with those massive pockets they have found recently... Hole 70W1 and 75 vicinity..
