May 27th news...) Latest drilling at Eagle Two (Anomaly AT2) continues to delineate, at depths now exceeding 400 meters vertically below surface, significant copper - nickel mineralization. The most visually impressive and deepest core intercepts of mineralization have been encountered in some of the most recently completed holes, indicating significant improvement with depth.
2) Hole 40 is visually the most interesting hole drilled to date at Eagle Two, encountering a total core length of 24.7 meters, of intermittent sulphide lenses within the shear hosted sulphide zone, starting at a vertical depth of 270.8 meters, of which 17.2 meters contained strongly mineralized sulphides in one continuous lense with visual copper (chalcopyrite) and nickel (pentlandite) mineralization.
yes, we hve NI too in Eagle 2
June 24 th ...The consistency of exceptional drill results at the Double Eagle project continued to add to the potential of this discovery. Thirty five holes were completed by early 2008 on the Eagle One magmatic massive sulphide deposit, the assay and drill hole data is currently being reviewed and compiled as required for an initial resource estimate, that is progressing extremely well. Noront continues to actively explore and stake ground in the area and currently holds 100% of over 48,600 hectares of prospective ground and is joint venture with several other resource companies on approximately 68,000 hectares. Collectively Noront holds interest in approximately 116,800 hectares or 1,166 square kilometers of staked land within the Ring of Fire exploration area.
The Noront discovery triggered an unprecedented staking rush in the area, including in excess of 100 mining exploration companies and a few major mining companies. The Ring of Fire area now totals approximately 4,000 square kilometers of staked land.
Noront holds 25% of staked land most in the best location..
