Garibaldi Resources (TSX.V: GGI) (the “Company” or “Garibaldi”) is pleased to report that an ongoing drill program utilizing two rigs continues to expand northwest British Columbia’s first nickel-copper rich sulphide system at the Company’s 100%-owned Nickel Mountain Project near Eskay Creek.
Dr. Peter Lightfoot, an internationally recognized nickel sulphide expert and a technical adviser for Garibaldi, commented:
“The host rocks at Nickel Mountain comprise a differentiated sequence of variable-textured and orbicular-textured gabbros and olivine gabbro with abundant disseminated interstitial sulphide. The exceptional tenor of the sulphide is a compelling feature of Nickel Mountain.
When viewed in a global context, Nickel Mountain is a classic example of an intrusion produced by open system emplacement of silicate and sulphide magma through a dynamic magma tube within a differentiated gabbroic complex. This intrusion represents an open system magma highway along which successive batches of silicate and sulphide magma were emplaced.”
