Sama Resources has discovered 0.52pc nickel and 0.58pc copper deposits at the Lac Brule Nickel Copper project in the Outaouais region of Quebec, Canada.
The project was newly launched in April and May after the company acquired a total of 370 exploration claims in the region, it said in a statement on Friday.
Copper and nickel were discovered after the miner found Gossan rocks extending over 115 meters. These are highly ferruginous rocks containing mineral deposits, the African miner stated.
