Horizonte Minerals the AIM quoted nickel and gold company focused on Brazil, says three new high grade intersections have been found at its Baio target.
The news comes in a positive assessment of its work at its 100% owned Araguaia project which the firm's Chief Executive Jeremy Martin says "is developing into a significant nickel deposit in terms of size and grade".
Horizonte says it will be able to give an updated mineral resource estimate - to tell people exactly how much nickel they think they have in Araguaia - by the end of the year.
