The core lengths presented in the above table are the intersected core lengths and do not represent true widths. The composite lengths are core weighted. These holes will form part of a resource calculation scheduled to be completed towards the end of this year. To date 56 diamond drill holes have been drilled on the property with 32 unreleased boreholes pending assay results.
"The detailed in-fill drill program will ensure the maximum efficiency of our mining operations on this project," said Liberty's Vice President of Exploration, William Randall. "We continue to see the deposit grow with boreholes such as MCW-07-78 and MCW-07-81 extending the previously known zone by 10 to 15 metres," he added.
Groves Nickel Copper PGM Project
Liberty plans to fly an airborne VTEM survey over the recently acquired land package, including the Groves Ni-Cu-PGM deposit. The survey is designed to acquire a geophysical response over the known mineralized portion of the gabbroic intrusion, as well as test the full extent of the intrusive. This will allow Liberty's geological team to determine the possible extensions of the Ni and Cu mineralization identified, as well as locate prospective targets in the surrounding area. The property is scheduled to be ready for diamond drilling by late spring 2008.
"Airborne VTEM surveys have proven extremely useful in the past, and it will offer an excellent platform on which to base our upcoming exploration campaign at the Groves property," said William Randall, commenting on the proposed plans. "We are also going to fly the same system over our McWatters deposit, to see if we can identify a signature pertaining to the massive nickel sulphides lying approximately 120 metres below surface. If we are successful, this will open up the possibility of identifying numerous targets that have never been found," he added.
The project was supervised by Liberty's Vice President of Exploration, William Randall MSc (Geology), Chris Albert BSc (Geology), and by Richard Allard P. Geo, a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. According to the company sampling protocol, half of the diamond drill core is sampled and sent to ALS CHEMEX in Timmins to be prepared for analysis. The prepared samples are then forwarded to the ALS CHEMEX Laboratory in Vancouver for analysis. Base metal values are analyzed by aqua regia digestion and ICP-AES finish. A rigorous QA/QC program is implemented consisting of regular insertion of standards and blanks to ensure laboratory integrity.
