Amid the global energy transition, new critical minerals discoveries are always welcome.
And among the plethora of findings made in 2023 was high-grade nickelcopper-cobalt mineralisation at the Dogleg prospect in Western Australia.
The Dogleg prospect is situated within the Quick Shears group of tenements, where IGO and joint venture partner Buxton Resources are targeting "Nova-style' magmatic nickel-copper sulphide mineralisation.
After being originally identified as an area of interest due to its magnetic features associated with the nearby Merlin nickel-copper-cobalt prospect, IGO's exploration team drilled the first diamond hole at Dogleg in November 2023 by targeting the specific area identified with a ground electromagnetic survey.
The assay results showcased highgrade sulphides within a broader zone of low-to-moderate grade mineralisation.
