This part of NIB's release really interesting...... Significant enrichment in gallium and indium has been documented at Niblack. Individual samples assayed up to 112.5 g/t gallium and 55.3 g/t indium, with an average of all samples of massive sulphide totalling 45.5 g/t and 22.2 g/t respectively. These rare metals can be important smelter byproduct credits and will add to the gross metal value of mineralization at Niblack. Gallium and indium are used in a variety of new technology applications and have experienced a strong demand-driven market in recent years. For example, indium, which is used in the manufacture of high-definition LCD television and computer screens, has had an eightfold price increase over the past five years and is currently trading near $750 (U.S.) per kilogram.
