Churchill Resources focuses on TB-01 nickel target with positive exploration potential for nickel-copper-cobalt

Churchill Resources Inc. provides an update on the Taylor Brook nickel project, where drilling is on hold for surveys to refine chargeability targets. Soil sampling and lithogeochemical work have identified Ni-Cu-Co sulphides near surface and at depth. The Fall 2024 drill program targeted high chargeability/low resistivity areas. Results are pending analysis.

The Fall drilling program intersected mafic to ultramafic intrusive rocks, confirming a regional magmatic system on the property. Evidence of multiple intrusive pulses, assimilation of country rock xenoliths, and nickel-copper-cobalt sulphide blebs were found at the TB-01 target. Mineralized glacial float samples correlated with soil anomalies and drilled units. Assay results are pending.

Drilling at the Layden Extension Grid found that IP chargeability anomalies at TB-08 and TB-06 were due to layered fine-grained magnetite within magmatic intrusive rocks. Minor disseminated pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite were noted in a few oxide layers. The IP chargeability targets are being surveyed to enhance 3-D modelling and target definition at depth.

Churchill Resources Inc. is advancing the TB-01 target area within the Taylor Brook Gabbro Complex for nickel-copper-cobalt discovery potential. The Company’s Fall 2024 drill program has identified Ni-Cu-Co sulphides near surface and at depth. Geophysical surveys are ongoing to pinpoint chargeability targets for trenching and more drilling in Q1-Q2 2025.
