XANDER RESOURCES ENGAGES GEOTECH TO FLY VTEM SURVEY AT TIMMINS NICKEL PROJECT

Xander Resources Inc., further to its news release dated Nov. 4, 2021, announcing commencement of fieldwork at its Timmins nickel project, has contracted the services of Geotech Airborne Geophysical Surveys to carry out a 163-line-kilometre VTEM survey.

The survey is expected to be flown in late-February and will be completed over the 50 claims contiguous to Canada Nickel’s MacDiarmid project that comprise the South Block of the property where in May, 2021, Canada Nickel announced a secondary discovery through the identification of significant intersections of mineralized dunite similar to the average mineralization initially discovered at Crawford. Geophysical surveys reveal that the MacDiarmid target to be approximately 1.8 kilometres long indicating a structural footprint averaging 400 metres in width 15 per cent larger than Canada Nickel’s original Crawford’s Main zone discovery.

The objective of the geophysical survey is to build upon a historical magnetic survey which has identified magnetic targets indicative of mafic-ultramafic bodies favourable to hosting magmatic sulphides. The company expects to have interpretations completed and initial drill targets selected shortly thereafter for drill testing.

Xander’s chief executive officer, Deepak Varshney, comments: “Utilizing the VTEM, with its exceptional ability to identify deep hidden structures, should provide us a much clearer picture of what targets to prioritize for our first drill program. The VTEM data will provide the final pieces to our puzzle by connecting modern geophysics with associated geological evidence as we work toward a potential important new discovery at our Timmins project.”
