Exploration would also focus along a prospective 2-km-long east-southeast trending corridor interpreted to be a significant magmatic pathway for the E&amp;L Intrusion.<\/p>\n<p>The 2020 program aims to expand the scale of the E&amp;L high-grade deposit along a trend defined by 2019 drilling.<\/p>\n<p>The Friday press release stated drilling succeeded in identifying a mineralized extension of the E&amp;L intrusion along a predicted plunging trend towards the east. Strike length of the mineralized E&amp;L system has been extended from 200 metres to over 650 metres to the east where the intrusion remains open.<\/p>\n<p>Highlights include hole EL-20-89 which produced the widest mineralized intercept so far from 71.34 metres to 223 metres, returning nickel-copper mineralization over 151.6 metres grading 0.56% nickel and 0.61% copper. This intercept included 80.53 metres of 0.88% nickel and 0.85% copper.<\/p>\n<p>With the new geochemical and geophysical targets located at depth, the immediate goal is to follow the steeply-plunging E&amp;L gabbro to the east.<\/p>\n<p>Garibaldi shares eased 6.2% or $0.04 to 60 cents in early trading Friday on volume of 167,981. The shares are currently trading in a 52-week range of $2.03 and 37 cents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Garibaldi Resources Corp.
