Churchill kimberlite find shows significant grades

摘要

At the Churchill joint-venture project in eastern Nunavut, mini-bulk samples collected from isolated surface showings of four new kimberlite dyke discoveries show significant diamond grades running in the range of 0.39 to 2.04 carats per tonne. This past summer, Shear Minerals (SRM-V, SRMUF-O) discovered four distinct kimberlite dyke systems while drilling and prospecting in different areas of the Churchill project holdings. PST003, Notch and Jigsaw were found in the Sedna corridor and Kahuna was discovered in the Josephine River corridor. They are spatially distinct, steeply-dipping bodies that occur over a broad area of the project in multiple directions. The kimberlite dykes range from 0.5 to 4 metres wide and are highly diamondiferous.
