SOUTH VOISEY BAY PROJECT DRILL PROGRAM
NDT Ventures Ltd. (TSXV:NDE) (OTCBB:NDTVF)is pleased to announce that three high priority target areas have been selected for drilling on the South Voisey Bay Project. The geophysical targets are located in an east-west trending structure in an area predominated by northwest-southeast features on property controlled by the South Voisey Bay Nickel Company (SVBN) and on adjacent claims.
The target areas were initially identified through an airborne MegaTEM electromagnetic (‘EM’) survey flown in April/May 2003 and further confirmed by recently completed AMT electromagnetic ground geophysics and large loop EM surveys. The targets also coincide with residual east-west gravity and magnetic features. The 2003 exploration program has been designed to identify nickel bearing massive sulphides associated with known olivine gabbros and their related feeder systems.
All three target areas are located on the North Gabbro in the general area of the highest grades and nickel tenors intersected on the South Voisey Bay Project to date. Two of the target areas are located on the adjacent Donner/Commander joint venture property, with one target area located on the boundary of the Donner/Northern Abitibi joint venture property and the SVBN property.
The initial phase of drilling is expected to include approximately 1,200 metres of drilling. Drilling is expected to begin the week of September 8th and the program is expected to last three to six weeks.
The 2003 program is being carried out by Falconbridge Limited. Falconbridge can earn a 50% interest in the entire South Voisey Bay Project by spending $23 million on exploration over a five-year period. Falconbridge has spent approximately $4.0 million to date on the project and has met the requirements up to the end of 2003 to maintain its option.
The ownership of SVBN is as follows: Donner Minerals Ltd. 79.69%; Cypress Development Corp. 11.36%; NDT Ventures Ltd. 6.55%; and UC Resources Ltd. 5.40%.
On Behalf of the Board,
NDT VENTURES LTD.
