Western Areas NL & Troy Resources NL:New Nickel Sulphide Discovery

Western Areas NL (TSX:WSA)(ASX:WSA) and Troy Resources NL (TSX:TRY)(ASX:TRY)reported that diamond drilling has intersected a potentially significant zone of nickel sulphide mineralisation at shallow depth in ‘Area C’ of the Sandstone Joint Venture.

The press release is quoted as saying:

Diamond drilling commenced at Sandstone in early March to follow up anomalous nickel results intersected in shallow drilling in four different areas (Areas A to D). The previous results were reported in the December Q 2009 activities report. Areas A to D occur along a greater than 7km long belt in the southern part of the Sandstone JV tenements (Figures 1 and 2). There is minimal outcrop or previous drilling along this belt and the intersection in WAD 002 is the first known significant occurrence of nickel sulphides reported at Sandstone.
