Kingsrose Mining reported assay results from its first two holes drilled at the Råna Nickel project in northern Norway. Hole 23BRU001 intersected 2.5m @ 1.00% Ni, 0.14% Cu, and 0.08% Co, including 1.0m @ 1.94% Ni, 0.18% Cu, and 0.18% Co 20m southwest and along strike of a historical massive sulfide intercept, in turn located some 70 meters south of the inferred historical mine infrastructure. Drill hole 23BRU003 intersected 50m @ 0.43% Ni, 0.1% Cu, and 0.02% Co 20m down dip from historic intercepts of broad zones of mineralization. Notably, DHEM surveying identified a strong off-hole conductor along strike to the west of 23BRU001 as well as to the west of 23BRU003. Drill hole 23BRU002 was abandoned due to excessive deviation before reaching the target depth.
