eMetals Limited announced the commencement of drilling at the Poona Project which hosts the Mughal nickel prospect and the Raj tantalum prospect. A total of 1,400m of drilling is initially planned at the Mughal and Raj Prospects. Drilling at Mughal will test Ni-Cu- PGE geochemical anomalies coincident with discrete Moving Loop EM conductors located along the northern contact of the prospective stratigraphy. Soil sampling at the Mughal Nickel Prospect previously returned significant results of up to 0.15% Ni, 162ppm Cu, 145ppm Co and 68ppb PGE's approximately 5 kilometres west of historical exploration intercepts of 8m at 0.72% Ni, 0.13% Co and 26ppb PGE's from 11m and 8m at 1.0% Ni, 0.1% Co, 30ppb PGE's from 26m. The Raj Tantalite Prospect returned multiple high grade tantalite bearing pegmatites over a strike length exceeding 800m with Tantalum results from samples exceeding 179 ppm Ta2O5 and three samples in excess of 0.1% Ta 2O5.
