Nobel Mineral Exploration A project generator

In the mining business “If you don’t find it you can’t mine it.”

Noble Mineral Exploration makes it their business to find it. Whether its nickel, copper and zinc near Timmins, Ontario or Cere Villebon in Quebec and even rare earth elements and niobium near Hearst Ontario.

Nobel Mineral is a project generator. The company identifies mining potential on properties that were unexplored or underexplored and that has not in any way been followed up on. The company then undertakes airborne surveillance and follows up with a drilling program to the point where other parties such as Canada Nickel in the Project 81 area are brought in as partners. “The philosophy of being a project generator is to look for these under or unexplored areas that have geological potential of where some early work had been done 50, 60, 70 years ago,” explained Noble Minerals CEO Vance White during a video interview with Inside Exploration program. With a talented team of mining explorers Noble Minerals has a stable of mining claims it is exploring on its own or in tandem with companies such as Canada Nickel and MacDonald Mines. In November, 2022 drill programs began on the Kidd/Carnegie, Nagagami projects Ontario and Cere Villebon in Quebec. This program will be followed by an advance of drill program. Noble Minerals holds 25,000 hectares of mineral rights in the Timmins-Cochrane areas known as Project 81.

“Inco had done some exploration in the area back in the 1960s and returned about 1,000 feet plus of nickel, but INCO did not follow up and never filed with the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines,” Vance White recalled. Noble purchased the property from forestry company Abitibi Bowater in 2011.

“The first thing we did was to initiate the consultation process the Wabun tribal council for the Mattagami and the Matachewan First Nations, “ White said.

The Kidd Creek ll Project

The Kidd Creek ll Project consists of a group of patents and claims including 50% held with 11530313 Canada Inc acquired from Explor Resources in the vicinity of the Kidd Creek Mine. At the Kidd Creek Project line cutting was completed the IP survey near completion on 4 primary targets in Carnegie Twp in advance of a proposed 2000 metre drill program. The Kidd deposit is one of the largest volcanogenic massive sulfide ore deposits in the world, and one of the world’s largest base metal deposits and lies within the Abitibi greenstone belt and is presently owned by Glencore.

Exploration of this area in the past was hindered by so many companies with small land packages. Over the years, Noble has been successful in assembling one of the largest land inventories in the vicinity of the Kidd Creek Mine. Noble Minerals is finishing strategic Induced Polarization surveys within 2 km of the Kidd Creek open pit on the Fly Creek Rhyolite. The target of the program is rhyolite intercalated with ultramafic rocks on an anticlinal structure. It is postulated that these rhyolites are the same age as the Kidd Creek mineralized rhyolites.

In addition, the Fly Creek Rhyolite may be the faulted extension of the Chance Rhyolite where Texas Gulf previously intersected several drill holes containing lead, zinc, and silver mineralization. To the west Noble will be investigating a property with Induced Polarization that lies within 600 metres and on the same stratigraphic horizon as the Chance mineralization and the Kidd Creek Mine.

Nagagami Project

Noble Minerals also holds 14,600 hectares in the Nagagami Carbonatite Complex and its 4,600 hectares in the Boulder Project both near Hearst, Ontario. Drilling has been completed on the Nagagami Project. A total of 1302 meters were drilled in two holes. The core has been logged, sampled, and submitted to the lab. A total of 195 samples were split and submitted to the lab. Results were expected by the end of November or early December, 2022. In January 2023 additional sampling of the core in Nagagami Project hole NG22-02 identified:

• 61.0 metre intercept (between 373 and 434m) contains 0.554% Total Rare Earth Oxides and 0.098% Nd2O3

• Above intercept includes 17.0 metres* (between 380 and 397m) containing 0.665% TREO and 0.118% Nd2O3.

• Two smaller intercepts containing 0.573 % TREO and 0.105% Nd2O3 over 4.0 metres* (between 528 and 532m) and 0.605 % TREO and 0.119% Nd2O3 over 7.0 metres (between 538 and 545m), were also discovered.

• A slightly longer mineralized intercept also contains 0.24% Ce2O3 over 89.0 metres* (345 to 434m).

For comparison purposes, the average Dy2O3, Nd2O3, Pr2O3, and Tb2O3 content of the 61.0 metre intercept is Cont’d on pg. 84
