Samples From The South Okak Property


ONTARIO - Northern Graphite Corporation reported on the field season on the South Okak nickel/copper/cobalt property in Labrador. Rock samples were collected throughout the property, including 15 samples from historical drill core, and over 40 kilometers of high-resolution magnetometer data was acquired over two high priority target areas as part of the program.

A majority of the samples were taken from numerous gossans that are located on structures which cross-cut the main northwest trending suture that traverses through the area and also hosts the Voisey's Bay deposits. Some of these gossans are over 2km in length and represent multiple exploration targets. One sample returned 1.1% Cu, 0.85% Ni and 0.13% Co and another 1.1% Cu, 0.43% Ni and .085% Co. As per the table below, a number of samples also exceeded 1.0% Ni equivalent. These are significant values given they were collected from highly weathered gossanous material.

Gregory Bowes, CEO, said, "The Voisey's Bay deposits are contained within large, lower grade mineralized halos and this extensive, widespread mineralization is similar to what we are seeing at South Okak. Voisey's Bay was discovered by sampling gossans which are generally lower grade than any mineralization lying below due to weathering."

3D modeling of the ground magnetometer surveys has now been completed for the 1558 Zone and illustrates the value of a detailed reinterpretation of historical results. Reinterpretation of this zone along with newly acquired data from 2021 field work clearly indicates its untested potential . Modeling of other zones is on-going.
