I think the 10% section was right close to the footwall but the lens is downdipping and future drilling will therefore have to go deeper to intersect the same lens.

<--Seems like that old shallow drill rig Nuinsco was using hit the richest part of the
discovery core, near the bottom or base 37m of 2.5% Nickel and 3.2 of 10.8% Nickel
??). I wonder was there any nickel deeper in the ground on that discovery hole.??? >

dm,
yes and no. YEs the richest grade is at the bottom, and no, it is not open at depth, they entered into a fotwall after that. Lens dipping southwest, next hole probably will be at L10+00N and in theory (guess/wish) they should hit sulphydes about 100+ meters depth.
