International Cobalt Receives Confirmation of Anomalous Cobalt in Mount Thom Property Drill Core

International Cobalt (CSE:CO) has announced that it has received data on anomalous cobalt that has been confirmed in several mineralized locations on 3 drill cores selectively analyzed this winter using an XRF (X-Ray Fluorescent) unit by Supreme Metals Corp.

According to the press release the Mount Thom Property in Nova Scotia is now believed to be a copper-cobalt-gold variant of an IOCG mineralization event and further investigation of the Property is ongoing.

As quoted in the press release:

The property has excellent logistics; it is located about midway between Truro and New Glasgow, Nova Scotia and within 1-3 km to the west of the trans-Canada Highway #104. Good secondary road access exists on the Property and to the main outcrop showing. Hydro lines, including a major transmission line, presently exist on the Property.

A site visit earlier this winter on the property located the main mineralized outcrop on the property containing pyrite, chalcopyrite and bornite within the iron carbonate (ankerite) hematized matrix of the brecciated host metasediments. A large area, in excess of 100 square meters of crackled brecciated bleached metasedimentary rock (believed to be a silty shale protolith) was also located to the west of this mineralized outcrop.
