RC Drill Program At the King Solomon Nickel Project
VANCOUVER – Visionary Metals Corp. reported on the Reverse Circulation (RC) drill program at its King Solomon Nickel Project in Central Wyoming. 6 meters (m) of 0.52% nickel (“Ni”) including 1.5 m of 0.7% Ni in hole KSR23-004, approximately 220 m from last year’s intercept of 44 m of 0.23% Ni, including 17 m of 0.42% Ni in KSR22-003. Disseminated nickel mineralization in 12 of 14 holes drilled within 1 kilometer (km) by 600 m ultramafic body. Intercumulus, magmatic nickel sulfides identified in polished thin-section analysis of RC chips.
“We are encouraged to see widespread nickel mineralization in all but two RC drill holes in 2023 and look forward to an expanded diamond core drilling program at King Solomon in 2024,” said CEO Wes Adams. “The 2023 RC drill program confirmed our hypothesis that King Solomon is a large, disseminated nickel sulfide deposit and core drilling in 2024 is expected to better define distribution of mineralization, and determine true widths and grades, as RC drilling is only an indicative exploration tool. The fact that we have consistently identified magmatic sulfides in thin section analysis is also encouraging and suggests that there may be additional high-grade nickel mineralization within the system, as demonstrated in hole KSR23-004.”
The King Solomon nickel deposit represents the first of several nickel bearing ultramafic bodies identified during regional exploration along a structural corridor that has now been traced for 100 km and bears similar characteristics to other productive nickel deposits which have disseminated mineralization near surface and high-grade massive sulfide mineralization at depth. Ground based electromagnetic surveys will be conducted in Spring of 2024 to identify possible high-grade nickel sulfide targets at depth at King Solomon and at other Visionary prospects, regionally.
