Corporate Overview

Fieldex Exploration is engaged in area selection, property acquisition, and exploration for ore deposits. Fieldex's focus is on the discovery of Rare Earth Elements, Strategic Metals and Ni-Cu-PGE sulphide deposits

Fieldex's philosophy and approach to Ni-Cu-PGE, strategic metals and rare earths exploration includes the acquisition and evaluation of large prospective tracts of land, currently focused in the prolific Abitibi-Témiscamingue greenstone belt.

The District of Temiscamingue in Western Quebec is fast developing into one of the most prospective areas in Canada for the discovery of nickel, copper, cobalt and platinum group metal (PGM) deposits. The area is easily accessible , a network of roads is also well established.

Recognizing the potential of the Temiscamingue by being the eastern extension of the regionally extensive nickel metallotec that includes the world class deposits of the Sudbury Igneous Complex. Fieldex management initiated in 2000 an aggressive acquisition and joint venture program. As a result, the company is actualy the largest landholder, with his partner FNX Mining Company, of the Temiscamingue greenstone belt with approximately 54,000 hectares (540 km²) of land.

Fieldex is very pleased with the results of the last drilling program with high grade nickel-copper-platinum-palladium mineralization intersected;

Drill results included:

  • 19.7 meters @ 1.85% Ni, 2.99% Cu, 1.77 g/t Pd, 0.97 g/t Pt, 0.97 g/t Co and 0.48 g/t Au at the Midrim DH MR00-01
  • 10.35 meters @ 3.52% Ni, 2.88% Cu, 3.36 g/t Pd, 0.59 g/t Pt, 0.10 g/t Co and 0.23 g/t Au at the Midrim DH MR00-05

Following on the positive results of the Fieldex/Aurora 2000-01 exploration program, Fieldex initiated an aggressive land acquisition program. In 2004, the joint venture partners spend over $1 million in exploration. A helicopter borne electromagnetic survey of over 1,300 total line kilometers was completed in late December 2004 on the komatiitic and gabbroic terrains which lie within the eastern extension of the regionally extensive nickel metallotec that includes the world class deposits of the Sudbury Igneous Complex. Several of these areas host numerous strong conductors that have subsequently been prospected and are related to sulphide mineralized komatiitic flows and interflow sulphidized sedimentary rocks.
