M2 Cobalt (TSXV:MC, FSE:A0K, OTCQB:MCCBF) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has successfully mobilized a second drill rig and has commenced drilling at its Bombo and Bombo NW targets at Bujagali. This follows completion of a successful induced polarization (“IP”) program which helped to finalize initial drill collars. It is currently anticipated that the drill program at Bombo will comprise at least 1,000 metres of diamond core drilling.
The IP program at Bombo and Bombo NW highlighted several chargeability highs which coincide with the rock and soil Ni – Co – Cu geochemical anomalies, magnetics and in some cases density or ground gravity anomalies. The initial drill program is designed to test a number of targets across a broad area in what is now believed to be the Bombo Complex (a series of ultramafic bodies).
Simon Clarke, CEO said, “we have always been excited about the potential of Bombo, especially given the historic work done there. Our geochemical and geophysical programs have shown widespread surface and near surface mineralization of highly anomalous nickel, copper and cobalt. We are delighted to be able to launch an initial drill program to test this ultramafic style of mineralization further as we look to build on the highly successful work done to-date on these targets.
There is growing demand for nickel sulphides as a critical ingredient in cathode formulation for lithium-ion batteries. The potential of Bombo in this regard, as well as for copper and cobalt, adds another dimension to this discovery.”
