Auroch Minerals: Exploring High-Grade Nickel Sulfides in Western Australia

Auroch Minerals (ASX:AOU) explores high grade nickel sulfide projects within Norseman Wiliuna Greenstone Belt, a tier-one jurisdiction, containing some of the best nickel sulfide deposits globally.

Auroch’s flagship Nepean nickel project was a historic mining area that generated over 32 kilotons of nickel at less than 500 meters deep. There is a massive exploration potential as the company plans to drill past a pegmatite vein to access the Nepean deeps target area. Compared to Western Area’s (ASX:WSA) Flying Fox nickel mine, it had a similar pegmatite vein. Their deep mining of over 1200 meters produced over 100 kilotons of nickel.
