Location
- The Soissons NMEF Ni-Cu-Co project is located from 50 to 100 kilometers southeast of the town of Kuujjuaq, Nunavik, Quebec.The Soissons Ni-Cu-Co project is located approximately 150 kilometers south-east of Kuujjuaq, Quebec, and 250 kilometers west of the Voisey’s Bay mine, Labrador.
Property
- The project contains 31 claims in three separate blocks. The project is a joint venture between Midland and the Nunavik Mineral Exploration Fund (NMEF).
Highlights
- Contains a series of mafic intrusions of the Soissons suite.
- Recent geochronological work by the Geological survey of Canada recently returned an age of 1311±1.1 Ma for the Soissons suite, close to the age of the Voisey’s Bay troctolite (1332.7±1 Ma), host to the world-class Ni-Cu-Co Voisey’s Bay deposit. The Soissons intrusions also belong to the Nain plutonic suite (1330 to 1290 Ma).
- Unexplained Ni-Cu lake sediment as well as till anomalies are associated with the Soissons intrusions.
- Very little previous exploration in the area.
Partnership
- 50% Midland, 50% Nunavik Mineral Exploration Fund (NMEF). The NMEF is the operator.
