Objectives

Objectives.

  • Focused primarily on nickel sulphide exploration, in terrains where potential for commodities other than nickel are present.

  • Take advantage of rising commodity prices through re evaluation , discovery and development of near mine extensional resources.

Strategy.

  • The earl identification of areas and ro ects that are ros ective for economic y p j p p

  • nickel mineralization (re-evaluation using new prices, new technologies).

  • Deliver cost effective exploration success using rigorous and systematic approach to prioritize and evaluate exploration targets(re-interpretation of available data to .

  • identify predictable patterns)

  • Develop Innovative exploration models that focus on big systems.

  • Identify and acquire advanced projects to increase the potential for success.

Commitment.

  • Build a team of professionals with proven track record in transition from idea to mine.

  • Maintain high standards in respect to workplace health, safety and environmental .

  • management

  • Work closely with key stakeholders.
