Fjordland and Commander Begin Drilling at South Voisey’s Bay Nickel Project, Labrador

Fjordland Exploration (TSX-V: FEX) and project partner Commander Resources (“Commander”) (TSX.V: CMD) are pleased to announce that they have begun drilling at their South Voisey’s Bay Project (the “SVB Property”) located in Labrador, Canada.

The initial program will comprise a minimum of 1000 metres of core drilling in 5 to 7 holes designed to test a number of conductors at the Sandy Target. The SVB property currently comprises 29,450 hectares and is located in central Labrador some 80 kilometres south of Vale’s Voisey’s Bay Nickel mine and covers parts of the Pants Lake Gabbro Complex.

The Pants Lake Complex contains host rocks with alteration and nickel mineralization styles consistent with high nickel prospectivity. In 2014 Commander and Fjordland completed a UTEM 3 and ground magnetic survey over a portion of the claims referred to as the Sandy Target.
This survey outlined a strong horizontal conductor and 4 strong sub-vertical conductors near the Worm Gabbro, a possible feeder dyke to the larger gabbro bodies.
