Higher-Grade Nickel Sulphides Confirmed at Zeb Across Multiple Zones - Mineralisation Remains Open

Core Insights - ZEB Nickel Corp. has confirmed the presence of higher-grade nickel-copper-PGE mineralization at the Zeb Nickel Project in Limpopo, South Africa, following a two-hole drilling program that validates the geological model and indicates that mineralization remains open along strike and at depth [2][24]. Group 1: Geological Model and Mineralization - The Zeb mineral system consists of four stacked horizons, with Zone 1 being the near-surface bulk-tonnage nickel-bearing unit, and Zone 2 containing similar Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization to that found at Ivanhoe Mines's Platreef Mine [4][24]. - Drilling results from two holes (Z031 and Z033) confirmed the presence of mineralized material in both Zone 1 and Zone 2, with significant intersections indicating thicker, higher-grade intervals beneath the historical resource [7][8]. - Zone 2 reported assay results of up to 2.27 m at 0.27% Ni, 0.17% Cu, and 2.27 g/t 3PGE+Au, while Zone 3 showed up to 0.70 m at 0.65% Ni and 0.40% Cu within a broader interval of 2.73 m at 0.39% Ni [7][13]. Group 2: Exploration Potential - The data suggests that the Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization in Zone 2 may extend fully beneath Zone 1, indicating increased potential for a significant Ni-Cu-PGE resource [9][24]. - The consistent intersection of semi-massive sulphide mineralization in Zone 3 supports the potential for a large, continuous magmatic system, which could lead to further discoveries [10][12]. - The geological model proposes that additional down-dip drilling may intersect significantly higher-grade Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization, supported by analogous mineralization styles observed at neighboring world-class deposits [11][24]. Group 3: Company Overview - ZEB Nickel Corp. is focused on exploring and developing world-class mineral deposits, particularly those critical for rechargeable battery production, including nickel, graphite, lithium, cobalt, manganese, copper, and aluminum [25]. - The Zeb Nickel Project is strategically located in the Bushveld Complex in South Africa and is recognized as a developing Class 1 nickel sulfide project [25].
