ABSTRACT:Legend Mining Limited (“Legend”) is pleased to announce drill assay results from the recently completed diamond and reverse circulation (“RC”) drilling at Areas N, E, F and O, see Figure 1. Three new bedrock conductors have also been identified from the most recent regional moving loop electromagnetic (“MLTEM”) surveys in the south of the Rockford Project in the Fraser Range district of Western Australia. Final assay results have now been received from selected core samples (see Footnote 2, Table 1) from diamond holes RKDD003-004 and four metre composite samples from RC holes RKRC008- 010. The tenor of nickel and copper values from two sulphide bearing pyroxenitic units were consistent with field observations and drill core logging, see Photo 1. Several intervals with high MgO (18-27%) values and up to 0.16% Ni in the two diamond holes are of particular interest, as they are indicative of mafic/ultramafic lithologies. The true significance of these intervals and other assay results will not be fully understood until integrated with the petrology results which are expected by the end of September 2017. Legend Managing Director Mark Wilson said “We are looking forward to the petrology results to confirm we have intersected mafic/ultramafic intrusions into sulphur rich metasediments at Area N. This is a geological setting consistent with Nova style nickel-copper orebodies. We are also currently conducting innovative low frequency fixed loop EM surveys at Area N to assist in identifying the next round of diamond drill targets at this location.”
