Ok, it's a fight to the death. You think 20 million tons, I think 500K. Easy to be scared I guess.

There could be a lot more to find I will admit. But these nickel plugs are usually short.

Down-Plunge Drilling at Lanfranchi

Along with the extension of the Lanfranchi decline, a dedicated drill drive is being developed to enable underground drilling to be conducted down-plunge of the Lanfranchi orebody following upon a highly successful platform EM drill program.

During the last quarter, two contact parallel EM platform holes were drilled in the footwall of the down-plunge extension of the Lanfranchi orebody. Hole LAN120 intersected broad zones of mineralization and several intervals of massive sulphide. The better mineralized zones of drill-hole LAN120 returned intersections of 9.6m at 7.9% Ni and 30.0m at 5.2% Ni. The second drill-hole, LAN121 did not return any significant results.

“The recent massive sulphide intersections and strong geophysical responses provide a high level of confidence for down plunge continuity of the Lanfranchi ore body,” states Brilliant CEO John Williamson. “An extension of this nickel sulphide mineralization will increase the resource inventory and lengthen the mine life.”
