Nordic Nickel reported assay results for an additional three drill holes from ongoing drilling at its Pulju Nickel project in northern Finland. Highlighted intercepts include for example 86m @ 0.18% Ni in drill hole HOT004, 54m @ 0.19% Ni in drill hole HOT005, or 70m @ 0.18% Ni in drill hole HOT010. The company notes that the encountered mineralization complements and extends previously intersected mineralization and that the grade is consistent with the current Mineral Resource Estimate for Hotinvaara (133.8Mt @ 0.21% Ni and 0.01% Co). An updated MRE is scheduled for later this year. To date, a total of 24 diamond drill holes for a total of 13,836.6m have been completed.

Weighted average composite nickel intersections highlighted by blue (Ni-sulphide/Nitotal>50%) and red cylinders (Ni-sulphide/Ni-total<50%). Cut-off: >1500ppm Ni-total with max. 6m internal dilution.” (Source: www.nordicnickel.com)
