Mr. Stanley Ford and Mr. John Mooney report
Labrador International Mining, the operator of the Labrador Nickel Syndicate
(Labrador 50%; Pallaum 25%; GlobeNet Resources 25%) has either been unable
or unwilling to deliver to the management committee a work program for the 1998
field season for its South Voisey's Bay properties within the time requirements set
out in the joint venture agreement. Pallaum and GlobeNet are calling a meeting of
the management committee for mid May to present a work program for the 1998
field season. These South Voisey's Bay properties are in the midst of and
adjoining the Teck/Donner South Voisey's Bay project area.
Adlatok River 2
The Adlatok River 2 property has exposed olivine gabbro over 4km. Regionally,
this extensive olivine gabbro is over 25km long on which Teck Corp will be
executing a two phase $14.8-million, plus work and drill program this season.
Teck has identified its drill areas to date as the North Gabbro and the South
Gabbro. Adlatok River 2's central location with 4km of exposed olivine gabbro is
designated as the Central Gabbro and lies in the core area of the Teck/Donner
work program.
Adlatok River 2 has undergone a series of programs which have included
extensive geophysical studies and subsequent shallow drilling. These programs
have yielded the following indications of potential massive sulphide mineralization
on the style of the world class Voisey's Bay Ni-Cu-Co deposit: magnetic EM and
UTEM surveys have all identified coincident geophysical anomalies within the
Central Gabbro; previous drilling encountered leopard-textured troctolite at the
northern and southern reaches of the Central Gabbro; previous drilling
encountered a thin layer of massive sulphides at the basal contact with the gneiss in
the southern sector of the Central Gabbro.
Given the highly prospective indicators of its potential to host a Voisey's Bay-style
deposit, the Adlatok River 2 property is highly regarded and a prime target in the
South Voisey's Bay region.
Adlatok River 1
Adlatok River 1 is also adjacent to Teck's current drill program. Adlatok River 1
is north-northeast of Major General's Sarah Lake property and Northern Abitibi's
South Voisey's Bay property.
Work reportedly conducted on Major General's property, specifically the
down-hole EM survey on SVB-97-92, has indicated the presence of an off-hole
conductor that has been interpreted by Teck's consulting geophysicist to be close
to 100m in thickness within a favourable troctolite unit which is trending to the
north-northeast. This unit is the eastern extension of the troctolite unit that occurs
on Northern Abitibi and on which three separate drill holes have encountered
massive sulphide mineralization.
A two phase, $1-million work and drill program is being prepared for the Adlatok
River 2 and 1 properties during the 1998 season.
