Vancouver — Aimed a testing the downdip extension of surface mineralization discovered at the Nickelby claims, partners Wolfden Resources (YWO-V) and Jonpol Explorations (JON-T) have launched a drill program over the Sapawe platinum-palladium property near Thunder Bay.

The showing, measuring 500 metres by 200 metres, is a coarse-grained ultramafic spotted with pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite.

The latest prospecting program also returned up to 1.77% copper, 0.27% nickel, 1.56 grams platinum, 1.99 grams palladium and 0.56 gram gold from nearby road rubble.

Three samples from the Whit area returned up to 0.36% copper, 0.05% nickel, 1.02 grams platinum, 1.29 grams palladium and 0.35 gram gold.
