NAN-V: The drill and drilling equipment that will be used at North American Nickel Inc.'s Imiak Hill conduit complex have arrived in Nuuk, Greenland, and has been offloaded from the ship. The drill crews and North American Nickel's geological team will be arriving in Nuuk on June 13.
North American Nickel has finalized its geological team for the 2014 Maniitsoq program. The team has been assembled, and is led by chief operating officer Neil Richardson. It is a bigger, more experienced group this year and will work in two shifts. It consists of team A: Jim Sparling (project manager), Chris Roney and Darrel Turcotte; and, team B: Jamie Lavigne, Kevin Wells and Scot Halladay. The two teams represent combined exploration/mining experience of over 150 years.
NAN president, Dr. Mark Fedikow, and principal nickel consultant, Patti Tirschmann, will also spend time on the ground at Maniitsoq this season reviewing core, mapping and assisting the geological teams.
Ground geophysics update
Crone Geophysics has now completed 655 gravity stations and 67 kilometres of surface time-domain electromagnetics (TDEM) at the Imiak Hill conduit complex (IHCC).
The gravity crew has completed an additional 126 stations at Fossilik and the TDEM crews are now working on the Fossilik grid, and have approximately 20 kilometres of surveying remaining to complete the spring geophysical program.
The results from both programs are expected over the next few weeks.
