Welcome To The Inspiration Mining HUB On AGORACOM

The company is exploring for nickel deposits on its Langmuir property near Timmins, Ontario; for nickel-gold-copper on its Cleaver and Douglas properties; and for molybdenum and rare earth elements at recently acquired Desrosiers property.

One last bite from that magazine article published last week to go with the VTEM chat

"The Langmuir No. 2, on the other hand, produced 1.1 million tonnes grading 1.54 per cent nickel. Currently, Inspiration is taking a look at a northwards extension of this mine, which will be mineable via open pit. Its strike length reaches roughly 525 metres on surface, with up to 15 metres of overburden, and it remains open to the north and at depth.

Despite the presence of two mines, much of the remaining property has gone underexplored, and Miller estimates that Inspiration itself has only drilled between 10 and 15 per cent of the site. Roughly 3.5 kilometres of distance separates the two existing mines, and geophysical work done last summer may hint at some additional ore bodies not only between the two, but in other areas of the property as well.

This will translate to four or five drills working steadily on the property through the year on exploring new targets and developing old ones. Nearly 50,000 metres are expected to be drilled by Timmins-based Crites Drilling. As the year progresses, development work will be performed on the Langmuir No. 1 ramp, with some dewatering to allow for additional drilling of difficult targets that are otherwise inaccessible from surface."

You can bet the upcoming GEOTECH VTEM will be money well spent.
