| ABSTRACT: | Legend Mining Limited (“Legend”) is pleased to provide aircore assay results for a further 24 drillholes and additional petrology from the current and ongoing aircore drilling programme at Area D, Rockford Project in the Fraser Range of Western Australia (see Figure 1). A technical discussion is contained in the body of this announcement. Legend Managing Director Mark Wilson said, “These new results confirming a third mineralised intrusive body, support Legend’s earlier statements that Area D is prospective for multiple such intrusions. Also the anomalous nickel-copper assays in holes 249/252/253 some 800m east of holes 167/230 add a dimension to that previously identified intrusion. We see these and other recent results as demonstrating the prospectivity for nickel-copper-cobalt deposits at not only Area D but the whole of our Rockford Project and indeed the entire Fraser Zone” Drillhole RKAC249 and 50m infill holes RKAC252-253 all returned anomalous Ni-Cu values associated with a medium grained olivine-rich gabbronorite cumulate (see Table 1). Whilst no sulphides were observed in drill chips, the peak nickel value of 0.64% Ni in RKAC253 cannot be fully explained by nickel-in-olivine, suggesting a sulphide source for the nickel. These three holes lie on the margin of a 1.5km circular magnetic low located 800m east of the previously identified mineralised intrusive body in RKAC167/230 (see Figure 2). The olivine-rich gabbronorite in RKAC249/252/253 and the cumulate pyroxene-rich gabbronorite in holes RKAC167/230 are interpreted to be part of the same intrusive body and have greatly increased the size of the intrusion. | |
