North American Nickel Maniitsoq Filed Program Underway

North American Nickel (TSXV:NAN) has provided an update on its planned 2016 exploration project at its 100 percent owned Maniitsoq nickel-copper-cobalt-PGM project in Greenland.
As quoted in the press release:

The Company’s key objective this year is to carry out follow-up drilling at multiple mineralized targets in order to determine if one or more zones have the potential to warrant delineation drilling. Concurrently, the Company will be continuing the systematic exploration of the district scale Maniitsoq property and advancing corporate social responsibility and infrastructure-related activities.
The 2016 exploration program comprises approximately 10,000 metres of diamond drilling, surface and borehole geophysics, mapping, sampling, prospecting, structural geological studies and 3D modeling.
A key component of the Company’s evolving exploration strategy is the integration of conventional geophysical tools with new complementary targeting tools. At the prospect scale, structural studies, detailed mapping and 3D modeling are being integrated with borehole and surface geophysical data in order to enhance drill hole targeting. At the regional scale, the new Worldview satellite imagery and lithogeochemical data are being integrated with airborne and surface geophysical data in order to define the extents of prospective norite stratigraphy and prioritize exploration targets for potential drill testing.
Work contracts have been awarded to Boart Longyear Drilling and Crone Geophysics and Exploration Ltd., both ofMississauga, Ontario, and to Insight Geophysics Inc. of Oakville, Ontario. Logistical support contracts have been awarded to Xploration Services Greenland A/S and Air Greenland A/S, both of Nuuk, Greenland.
