Group Ten explores Yukon PGE claims

Group Ten Metals Inc. June 22 said it has begun 2017 exploration at its nickel-copper-platinum group elements properties in southwestern Yukon.

This work, which is expected to be carried out in July, includes mapping, prospecting and surface sampling at the Ultra, Spy and Catalyst projects.

The work at Spy, which is roughly 25 miles (40 kilometers) the Wellgreen nickel-PGE-copper project, will focus primarily on defining the orientation of the Spy ultramafic sill and sighting optimal locations for a potential drill program later this year.

The broader program aims to further define known showings and test additional prospective ground and geophysical/geochemical anomalies across each of the three projects.

In addition, the company is completing advanced due diligence on a number of properties it is considering for acquisition.

This evaluation is focused on quality, undervalued assets in established, world-class districts of politically-stable jurisdictions with excellent access and infrastructure.
