Western Areas Announces Nickel Intersection

Western Areas (TSX:WSA,ASX:WSA) announced  a number of significant intersections of nickel sulphides at the Sunrise deposit at the Forrestania nickel project.

As quoted in the press release:

Mineralisation is interpreted to be contained within ultramafic rocks that lie approximately 200m above the basal contact. All holes intersecting nickel sulphides do so at approximately the same stratigraphic level, confirming the continuity of the mineralisation.

The mineralised horizon is steeply dipping and generally comprised of two zones, which are between 1m to 4m wide, separated by about 10m – 20m. Downhole EM (DHEM) has been undertaken on all completed holes and the data is being used to determine the most prospective portions of the mineralisation.
