Infinity Stone Ventures Corp (CSE:GEMS) has provided an update on the soil sampling program at its Zen-Whoberi property, located north of Mont Laurier, Quebec, and also announced the appointment of Case Lewis as an independent director of the company.
The soil geochemical survey of 950 samples taken on the Zen-Whoberi property revealed two new anomalous copper zones and two new anomalous nickel-cobalt zones. The cobalt zone is located 800 metres north of the known mineralization at the property, and trends roughly east-west for at least one kilometre and 100 metres in width.
New trails on the property will ease the tasks of stripping and blasting. The nickel-cobalt anomalies will also be analyzed for platinum group metals (PGM), as previous work had identified a correlation between sulphides and PGM content in drill core, particularly CB-06-05 (GM 61701), the company said.
