High-Grade Nickel/Copper Massive Sulphide Mineralization At Luanga
VANCOUVER - Bravo Mining Corp. announced high grade nickel and copper assay results from diamond drill hole DDH22LU047 at its Luanga platinum group metals (palladium + platinum + rhodium) + gold + nickel (PGM+Au+Ni) project, located in the Carajas Mineral Province, state of Para, Brazil. The high-grade intercept of 11.04m grading 2.04% nickel and 1.23% copper occurs in massive and semi-massive sulphides – a style of mineralization not previously observed at Luanga, increasing the target type potential at the project. Palladium, platinum and rhodium assay results are pending.
Highlights: 11.04m @ 2.04% nickel and 1.23% copper, from 131.11m, including 4.54m @ 2.77% nickel and 1.23% copper, from 132.26m, and including 0.80m @ 10.82% copper and 0.98% nickel, from 136.80m; Contractors arriving onsite this week to commence Downhole Transient Electromagnetic (DHTEM) surveying at Luanga, starting with DDH22LU047; and Palladium, platinum and rhodium results are pending.
"As announced high-grade nickel-copper mineralization at these concentrations, has not been observed previously at Luanga and could represent a new type of mineralization that occurs within the Luanga PGM deposit, or a potential indication of feeder zones," said Luis Azevedo, Chairman and CEO. "DHTEM surveying will commence shortly, which should allow us to vector in on the continuation of high-grade nickel/copper massive sulphides, guiding follow-up drilling."
