[{"type":"text","content":"Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Tartisan Nickel Corp. (CSE: TN, FSE: A2DPCM) (“Tartisan”, or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that strategic exploration on the Kenbridge Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project, Kenora, Ontario has commenced. As previously press released, Tartisan has a detailed three-pronged exploration strategy for the Kenbridge Deposit. First, analysis of the structural and deformational setting of the Kenbridge Project through surface mapping and geophysics as Tartisan’s data analysis from the Canadian Arrow Mines Limited acquisition shows a number of very interesting mineralized zones that do not appear to have been fully explored. Second, MineMap Pty Ltd of Perth, Australia has been evaluating the resource base of the Kenbridge deposit from both open pit and underground perspectives. Key to the relevance of this effort is that the principal resource consultant for MineMap is a past Falconbridge employee and has a detailed prior knowledge of the Kenbridge Deposit. This resource calculation, with the insights into potential future mine planning that a resource distribution can provide, is a key factor in updating the NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Kenbridge Nickel-Copper Deposit. Third, as previously announced, Tartisan has contracted Abitibi Geophysics Inc. Thunder Bay, Ontario office to provide the geophysical surveys that will define the geophysical character of the Kenbridge Deposit from the mineralized outcrops at surface to the high-grade drill-intersected mineralization at the base of the 632m shaft and below within the Kenbridge deformation zone. Abitibi will use this data to survey the rest of the northeast-trending deformation zone as well as on subsidiary related structural settings seen on the Kenbridge property. Tartisan Nickel Corp CEO Mark Appleby said, “Since the original magnetic survey by Falconbridge Nickel in 1955, approximately 10 detailed geophysical surveys have been conducted over the Kenbridge Deposit and Property, but none were deep-seeking geophysical studies. Since our purchase of the Canadian Arrow assets in February 2018, we have undertaken a careful review of the asset. Our geophysical programs should put our whole geophysical database into a real discovery context so that when we go to drill the Kenbridge Property, we will have the best possible target definition.” Tartisan will cont...
