    Rock chip sample grading 0.82% Cu, 0.21% Ni, 1.14g/t Pt, 0.79g/t Pd, 0.18g/t Au, 4g/t Ag, 16.1 g/t Se and 0.03% Co
    A check rock chip sample in the vicinity of a high Cu - Ni sulphide occurrence previously sampled, returned a value of 0.18g/t Au, 4.3 g/t Ag, 0.82% Cu, 0.21% Ni and 0.03% Co.

    The sample was re-assayed for Platinum and Palladium and returned values of 1.14g/t Pt and 0.79g/t Pd (Assays for other PGEs (Osmium, Iridium, Rhodium, and Ruthenium) are yet to be conducted).

    Dr Dave Holwell of the University of Leicester's Department of Geology and contributing author to the recent Society of Economic Geologists publication "Magmatic Ni - Cu - PGE deposits" has visited the site and has reviewed the current results.
    He commented:
    "This is most certainly an exciting discovery. The mineralisation at Sron Gharb has the characteristics of a classic magmatic Cu-Ni sulphide deposit with elevated precious metals. The ratios of sulphur and selenium indicate that the magma has been contaminated by sulphur-bearing crustal rocks - a key factor in helping to generate deposits of this kind. Intriguingly, the geochemical signatures show that the sulphides cannot have gained their high precious metal contents without the presence of a much larger magmatic system than is current exposed. If this has been preserved beneath the current surface (as a larger intrusion or conduit system), it could represent a potential host for massive sulphide mineralization at depth."
