Miskamowin Nickel Project
Takara is pleased to announce that it has elected to re-activate its interest in three Mineral Exploration Licence application renewals that have the potential for nickel sulphide mineralization, located west of Thompson, Manitoba.
The Miskamowin Project is located in an underexplored area known to host ultramafic rocks correlative with the Thompson Nickel Belt, and is prospective for the identification of new ultramafic magmatic sulphide Ni deposits, particularly with the use of modern geological and geophysical techniques. In 2010 Geotech was engaged to complete a 2,410 line-km helicopter VTEM survey. Several prospective targets for Ni sulphide targets have been interpreted and recommended for ground follow up such as ground geophysical and follow up drill testing.
The Miskamowin Project remains under an option with the vendor. Takara has vested at 100% interest in the project, however, certain discovery bonus payments are payable to the original vendor in the event that certain milestones are met (see news release dated January 26, 2009).
The permit areas are located in the vicinity of Nelson House, Manitoba and are located close to small settlements with some infrastructure. Highway access is possible to some of the licenced areas, and a combination of foot, water, and aircraft access will be possible for all licence areas. The Company expects to begin First Nations consultations in the near future.
