Galileo Mining Ltd Announces Em Surveying of Massive Sulphide in Aircore Drilling Has Commenced At the Company's 100% Owned Norseman Project in Western Australia
EM surveying is a very useful tool in exploration due to the conductive response of sulphide minerals that can contain nickel, copper, cobalt and palladium. Massive and semi-massive nickel deposits frequently exhibit conductive signatures when a current is passed through the earth. However, disseminated sulphides, and d eposits with complex geometry, may only provide subdued conductive responses. As the sulphides in aircore drilling at Norseman are at shallow depth, a moving loop survey using a 100m loop size has been designed to maximise any subtle change in response that may be related to accumulations of massive, semi-massive and/or disseminated sulphides.
