We have compared NOT's discorery with maybe the next Voisey's Bay but we should talk compare it instead with the RAGLAN mine in northern Quebec opened by Falconbridge. There is no PGE in Voisey's Bay but there is in RAGLAN. It's like what we have found un Double Eagle. Read the above from The NORTHERN MINER ARTICLE :
In terms of the style of mineralization, Eagle One most resembles the Raglan and Expo Ungava deposits in northwestern Quebec and the Jinchuan deposit in China, all of which contain similar grades of these base and precious metals. At Raglan, mineralization consists of individual lenses of sulphides associated with ultramafic flows and subvolcanic intrusions. Nine peridotitic bodies containing pervasive sulphide mineralization, mainly 1-3% finely disseminated pyrrhotite and pentlandite, occur over a distance of 55 km. Thicknesses vary from a few metres to tens of metres, and strike length can vary from tens of metres to 200 metres. The main deposit, Katinniq, consists of over 20 discrete lenses that vary in size from 10,000 tonnes to 1.4 million tonnes with grades ranging from 2.5-5% nickel.
The flows hosting the Raglan deposits are thought to have been fed by the ultramafic intrusions that also host the Nunavik Nickel project belonging to Canadian Royalties (CZZ-T, CRYAF-O). These intrusions occur along a belt several tens of kilometres long in a structural position similar to that of Eagle One along the Sachigo greenstone belt.
So we have maybe another RAGLAN !
