Initial drilling on a magnetic anomaly by Twin Mining (TWG-T) has found more kimberlite on the Jackson Inlet property near the northern tip of Baffin Island in Nunavut.
Twin intersected 83.2 metres of kimberlite on the AN-03 target, a 140-metre-wide magnetic anomaly detected by earlier magnetic surveys. The newly discovered pipe, labelled Cargo 1, is 4.2 km northeast of the Freightrain pipe, discovered earlier on the property, which is now being drilled.
Freightrain and the new pipe are two of nine magnetic anomalies that form a 30-km line on the Brodeur Peninsula.
In another development, a 21-kg soil sample from frost-boil material over the AN-03 anomaly returned a micro-diamond. A collection of garnets and chromites from the same sample were analyzed using an electron microprobe, and show compositions similar to those found in trench sampling at Freightrain.
