NickelSearch launches exploration program

NickelSearch (ASX:NIS) has started a 1,500-meter reverse circulation (RC) drilling program at the Surprise Copper Prospect. This project is part of the Mt Isa North Copper-Uranium Project in Northwest Queensland. The goal is to validate and expand existing high-grade copper mineralization identified from previous explorations.

NickelSearch's strategic exploration efforts

NickelSearch Ltd has initiated its first drilling program at the Surprise Copper Prospect, aiming to confirm and extend historical copper mineralization results. This program consists of approximately 1,500 meters of drilling across eleven holes, with past data indicating substantial copper and gold grades. Historically, the Surprise Copper-Gold Mine has produced high-grade material, suggesting potential for further exploration success. This initiative is part of NickelSearch's broader strategy to explore and develop its assets in the Mt Isa region, with expectations for drilling completion in two weeks and results due early next year. The company focuses on leveraging modern exploration methods to enhance shareholder value.
