• Eastport reported Phase II soil geochemistry results at its Selebi-East nickel-copper-PGE project in northeast Botswana.
• Nickel-copper anomalies extend multiple kilometers, tracking mapped amphibolite host rocks similar to those at NexMetals’ nearby Selebi Mine.
• Project sits about 7 km east of Selebi Mine, a past-producing underground copper-nickel-cobalt operation with ongoing drilling.
• Next work targets deeper-penetrating TDEM geophysics to refine subsurface targets before selecting drill collar locations.
• Initial electromagnetic test lines were inconclusive due to limited penetration; soil results for one licence area remain pending.
