Significant Exploration Target Outlined At The Nikolai Project


VANCOUVER - Millrock Resources Inc. announced that a significant exploration target of Ni-Cu-Co-PGE mineralization has been identified at Millrock’s Nikolai Project. The Nikolai Project is located within Alaska’s Delta Mining District, approximately 130 kilometers by road south of Delta Junction and approximately 280 kilometers southeast of Fairbanks. The Eureka zone consists of disseminated Ni-Cu-Co-PGE mineralization initially discovered by a subsidiary of INCO and further expanded by Pure Nickel Inc.

President and CEO, Gregory Beischer, said, “Our exploration geologists have outlined a block of mineralized rock that could likely be converted to a NI43-101 compliant Inferred Resource with a single drill program estimated to cost approximately $2 million. If successful, Millrock estimates the resulting Inferred Resource may comprise a deposit with approximately 400,000 metric tonnes of contained nickel metal, plus copper, cobalt, and platinum group metals. Other companies exploring similar deposits have significantly higher market capitalization than Millrock. Establishing an Inferred Resource at Nikolai could substantially increase the value of the Company. The planned drilling program would delineate an Inferred Resource over a 400-meter-long strike length. However, indications from sparse drilling along strike in both directions indicate the suspected deposit may be in excess of five kilometers long and contain a very large, albeit low-grade metal endowment.”
