Black Hawk to test Kirkland Lake bet

Black Hawk Mining (TSE) says it will begin drilling on a 24-claim nickel property in McElroy Twp. near Kirkland Lake, Ont., after signing an option agreement for the claims.

By spending $475,000 on exploration over the next three years and making option payments of $66,000, Black Hawk can earn a 100% interest in the claim group, known as the Big Bend property.

In 1968, two holes drilled beneath a nickel-copper showing at Big Bend intersected a 4.6-ft. section grading 0.92% nickel and 0.58% copper and a 10-ft. section grading 2.69% nickel and 0.32% copper. Little work has been completed on the property since then.

Black Hawk’s proposed drilling program will test for an extension of the mineralized zone at depth and along strike.
