Kingsrose Mining reported the remaining assay results from its 2023, 12-hole, 4318m diamond drilling program at the Råna project in northern Norway. At the Rånbogen prospect, two additional drill holes intersected massive sulfide mineralization, grading e.g. 1.4m @ 1.8% Ni, 0.2% Cu, 0.19% Co in drill hole 23RAN004 or 13.3m @ 0.4% Ni, 0.1% Cu, 0.02% Co in drill hole 23RAN005. Several outcropping massive sulfide targets associated with conductive anomalies remain to be tested at the prospect.
1.1km east-northeast of the Rånbogen prospect, drill hole 23RAN006 intersected a new zone of massive sulfides (“Malmhaugen”), returning e.g. 5.2m @ 0.4% Ni, 0.2% Cu, 0.11% Co. Further geophysical surveying and drilling are planned in the area. At the Bruvann prospect, drill hole 23BRU005 intersected a narrow high-grade nickel-sulfide zone grading 2.6m @ 1.0% Ni, 0.1% Cu, 0.03% Cu, including 0.6m @ 3.2% Ni, 0.3% Cu, 0.07 % Co, some 200m to the west of the historic Bruvann mine.
