Black Tusk Resources (TUSK) is evaluating one of its properties for nickel potential.

The Vancouver-based mineral explorer is reviewing its Lorrain Property in order to fully appreciate its potential for hosting nickel mineralization.

The Lorrain claim package covers 2,208.4 hectares in 38 contiguous claims located in western Quebec.

The property overlays favourable geologic and geophysical features for hosting nickel.

The region of Quebec where the property is located contains PGE and nickel properties located within 15 kilometres, including the Lac Croche and Delhi deposits to the north and the Pyke, Lac Kelly, and Mine Lorrain to the east.

The company is now compiling all of the geologic and exploration records that are available for the Lorrain property, concentrating on the nickel potential.

Future work will likely include mapping and sampling the original outcrop where nickel was discovered at the Guimond-Church showing. As well, a detailed magnetic survey is recommended to better define the magnetically high ridge that traces the host ultramafic through the property.

Drilling might be considered for 2023.

Black Tusk also holds other significant assets in Quebec and will continue the exploration of those projects next year.

Black Tusk Resources is up 27.27 percent, trading at $0.070 at 11:09 am ET.
