New Drill Result Highlights:
- Drill hole WMP-195 intersected 7.46 metres of 1.36 % nickel, 1.02 % copper, and 1.59 g/t TPM (including 0.67 g/t platinum, 0.74 g/t palladium, and 0.18 g/t gold) from 58.60 to 66.06 metres down hole;
- Drill hole WMP-180 intersected 8.68 metres of 0.46 % nickel, 0.95 % copper, and 2.54 g/t total precious metals ("TPM", including 1.07 g/t platinum, 0.81 g/t palladium, and 0.66 g/t gold) from 43.70 to 52.38 metres down hole;
- Drill hole WMP-182 intersected 7.70 metres of 0.86 % nickel, 0.98 % copper, and 2.19 g/t TPM (including 0.85 g/t platinum, 1.06 g/t palladium, and 0.28 g/t gold) from 61.00 to 68.70 metres down hole;
- Drill hole WMP-176 intersected 1.61 metres of 0.90 % nickel, 8.02 % copper, and 10.70 g/t TPM (including 5.55 g/t platinum, 3.09 g/t palladium, and 2.06 g/t gold) from 18.33 to 19.94 metres down hole; and
- Drill hole WMP-175 intersected 3.78 metres of 0.75 % nickel, 2.12 % copper, and 2.79 g/t TPM (including 0.94 g/t platinum, 1.62 g/t palladium, and 0.23 g/t gold) from 9.62 to 13.40 metres down hole.
"The near-surface intersections at Parkin are encouraging and indicate a significant expansion of the thicker and higher grade core of mineralization. The zones remain open for further expansion to depth," said Marz Kord, President and CEO of Wallbridge. "These strong results show that our team is successfully continuing to delineate new areas of mineralization along the nine kilometer strike length of our Parkin Offset dyke".
