Power Nickel Announces New Assay Results from its Polymetallic Lion Zone Discovery
Power Nickel Inc. (TSXV: PNPN) (OTCBB: PNPNF) has announced assay results from the first five holes of its summer 2024 drilling campaign at the polymetallic Lion Zone discovery. Highlights include:
- PN-24-063: 5.00 m of 5.93% CuEq, including 3.00 m of 7.10% Cu
- PN-24-066: 12.05 m of 2.97% CuEq, including 3.00 m of 1.95% Cu
- PN-24-067: 12.15 m of 2.36% CuEq, including 2.35 m of 7.41% Cu
The results were obtained from targets outside the main Lion Zone in the Halo area. The company has since retargeted drills at a lower pitch further west, finding the main Lion Zone again. Assays on these new holes are pending. The company expects to report on the remaining holes in October.
Power Nickel Inc. (TSXV: PNPN) (OTCBB: PNPNF) ha annunciato i risultati delle analisi dei primi cinque fori della sua campagna di perforazione estiva del 2024 alla scoperta polimetallifera della Lion Zone. I punti salienti includono:
- PN-24-063: 5,00 m di 5,93% CuEq, inclusi 3,00 m di 7,10% Cu
- PN-24-066: 12,05 m di 2,97% CuEq, inclusi 3,00 m di 1,95% Cu
- PN-24-067: 12,15 m di 2,36% CuEq, inclusi 2,35 m di 7,41% Cu
I risultati sono stati ottenuti da obiettivi al di fuori della principale Lion Zone nell'area Halo. L'azienda ha successivamente riposizionato le trivelle a un angolo più basso più a ovest, trovando nuovamente la principale Lion Zone. Gli esami su questi nuovi fori sono in attesa. L'azienda prevede di riferire sui fori rimanenti in ottobre.

Les résultats ont été obtenus à partir de cibles en dehors de la principale zone Lion dans la zone Halo. L'entreprise a depuis réorienté les forages à un angle plus bas plus à l'ouest, retrouvant à nouveau la principale zone Lion. Les analyses de ces nouveaux forages sont en attente. L'entreprise prévoit de faire un rapport sur les forages restants en octobre.
Power Nickel Inc. (TSXV: PNPN) (OTCBB: PNPNF) hat die Analyseergebnisse der ersten fünf Bohrlöcher seiner Sommer-Bohrkampagne 2024 im polymetallischen Lion Zone Fund bekannt gegeben. Die Höhepunkte umfassen:
- PN-24-063: 5,00 m mit 5,93% CuEq, einschließlich 3,00 m mit 7,10% Cu

Die Ergebnisse wurden aus Zielen außerhalb der Haupt-Lion Zone im Halo Bereich erzielt. Das Unternehmen hat die Bohrungen anschließend weiter westlich mit einem flacheren Winkel neu ausgerichtet und die Haupt-Lion Zone erneut gefunden. Die Analysen dieser neuen Löcher stehen noch aus. Das Unternehmen rechnet damit, im Oktober über die verbleibenden Löcher zu berichten.

Table 1 below presents the significant results of previously released holes, and the current assays. The complete set of results obtained demonstrates a tremendous success rate, which contributes to a continuously increasing level of confidence about the continuity of the zone.
Assays from the remaining holes are now in at the laboratory and the Company expects to report on those in October.
"As we have previously described, the thickness of the massive chalcopyrite zone within the core is ranging from up to 5-10 m true width but decreases to less than 1 metre laterally. The new results, combined with the ongoing structural interpretation and 3D modeling, suggests an inverse relation between thickness and strain intensity. As illustrated on Figure 1, results obtained at depth below the current zone show a decreasing thickness, suggesting that the Zone could be transposed into a deformation corridor (fault); in such scenario, the possibility that the zone regains in thickness on the other side of the fault is very real. It is in our short-term plan to step out a few hundreds of metres from the discovery zone, and explore for such potential offsets," commented Ken Williamson, VP of Exploration.
Figure 2 and Figure 3 below are cross-sections through the Lion Zone, along the holes reported in this current release, presenting the new assay results in their geological context. Core photos provide a visual support, allowing appreciation of the good correlation between sulphides presence and reported polymetallic grades.
QAQC and Sampling
GeoVector Management Inc ("GeoVector") is the Consulting company retained to perform the actual drilling program, which includes core logging and sampling of the drill core.
All samples were submitted to and analyzed at Activation Laboratories Ltd ("Actlabs"), an independent commercial laboratory for both the sample preparation and assaying. Actlabs is a commercial laboratory independent of Power Nickel with no interest in the Project. Actlabs is an ISO 9001 and 17025 certified and accredited laboratories. Samples submitted through Actlabs are run through standard preparation methods and analysed using RX-1 (Dry, crush (< 7 kg) up to
GeoVector's QAQC program includes regular insertion of CRM standards, duplicates, and blanks into the sample stream with a stringent review of all results.
The results presented in the current Press Released are complete within the mineralized intervals, but results are still pending for the top portion of both holes reported. QAQC and data validation was performed on these portions of the holes where assays are fully integrated, and no material error were observed.
