i always thought they were just hoping for a small presence of nickel? when i spoke to the company a few weeks ago they said they just wanted to find SOME nickel, and if its presence was confirmed it could justify their further exploration of some higher grade targets.
given they found such a large column, albeit of low grade, i'm not surprised they are encouraged with this result. it's basically what they were aiming to find
