Sultan (ASX:SLZ) hits Kulin nickel target
Sultan Resources’ early stratigraphic diamond drill hole results confirm a significant thickness of ultramafic target rock ideal for hosting a significant nickel deposit at its Kulin Hill in Western Australia’s eastern Wheabelt.
The ultramafic/mafic sequence in the main target areas shows an extension 256m downhole before a series of felsic and mafic gneisses intersected.
A total of 160 samples were selected and processed for geochemical analysis and sent to one of the main accredited laboratories in Perth.
The highly anticipated initial encouraging signs come following a frustrating wait for the company while waiting for the waterlogged salt lake target area to dry out, delaying access.
While waiting, the technical team designed a geophysics programme over parts of the salt lake reserve which would be the precursor to a wider drill programme testing the prospect.
“A detailed assessment of the geochemistry is currently underway, with results of this analysis expected in the coming weeks,” the Company said.
