Auroch Minerals (ASX: AOU) - Saints Nickel Project Drilling Update.

Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note the update today from Auroch Minerals Limited (ASX: AOU) ("Auroch") on its maiden drilling programme at its recently-acquired Saints Nickel Project (Saints), located approximately 65km northwest of Kalgoorlie and 7km east of the Goldfields Highway. The latest diamond drill-hole SNDD005 intersected 1.60m of semi-massive to massive sulphide mineralisation. The mineralisation is nickeliferous, with significant pentlandite (one of the major nickel sulphide ore minerals) observed intergrown with pyrrhotite, along with pyrite and chalcopyrite (a copper sulphide ore mineral). The interval has been processed and sampled by the Auroch team and assays are pending.

We are halfway through the programme and progressing on-schedule and on-budget, and the drilling has been of a high standard. The nickeliferous massive sulphides intersected in drill-hole SNDD005 are very interesting and we look forward to receiving the assay results as soon as possible. With 5 holes remaining to drill, all of the assay results still to come and down-hole EM surveys commencing next week, we look forward to receiving a large amount of data over the next two months that will guide the next phase of drilling at the Saints Nickel Project in early 2020, and will continue to update the market as this information is received."
