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.
Just looking over his estimates that were dated for drills holes recived up until about Sept 20/07
Langmuir #1 Mine: he had drill holes L105 1 thru 57, Although there were 66 holes drilled for 15,000 meters and 57 were recieved back as of Sept 20/07
Langmuir South: he based his estimate on a single hole from the March 07/07 reported results (2.6 million LBS)
Langmuir #2 Mine North Zone: Prior to June 30/07 he used the 63 holes reported for a total of 8500 meters. For the South Zone he also threw in 3 holes from a March 07/07 releases
So he said that after identifying several targets and anomalies, that his Nickel estimate would likely increase as ISM continued drilling and exploration after the time of writing.
"The main objectives for the company for the remainder of 2007 and 2008 are to continue outlining the known nickel mineralization at the Langmuir No.2 Mine – North Zone and the Langmuir No.1 Mine and to locate other sources of nickel mineralization (40-60 targets) in one of several horizons with the largest covering a strike length of approximately 5 km.
At Langmuir 2 the Company continues to have prospective exploration to depth and to the Northeast. Harron’s 2004 Report suggests mineralization at Langmuir 2 could extend down 400 metres or more, and the Company has drilled deeply recently to confirm the extension of mineralization to depth. These results are not yet known.
To the northeast, past geochemical and geophysical surveys have shown nickel anomalies and mineralized trends which run along parts of the diagonal length of Langmuir properties. This may continue to the Lutha property, northeast of Langmuir, which remains to be explored by the Company." So since the time of writing the report which we all got to see in October 2007, ISM has indeed drilled and drilled.
