Northern Shield Mobilizes Drill to Huckleberry

Northern Shield (TSXV:NRN) has announced that a drill crew has been mobilized to the Huckleberry nickel-copper-platinum project in Quebec.
As quoted in the press release:

Four to five drill-holes totaling 2000 metres are planned for the initial drilling program at Huckleberry. While the drill-holes are targeting certain EM anomalies identified from the VTEM (Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic) survey, the drill-hole locations are also selected to add geological knowledge at depth in different portions of the Huckleberry Intrusion. It is anticipated the program will take approximately 1 month to complete.
“We are very pleased with the progress of exploration,” states Northern Shield President and CEO, Ian Bliss. “The geology at Huckleberry is complex, but thanks to the tireless effort of our geoscientists and the input from our partners at South32, we have moved very quickly from a handful of samples to a drilling program. We look forward to seeing what comes out of the ground.”
The drilling program at Huckleberry will be overseen by Christine Vaillancourt, P. Geo., a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101.
