- Aldoro Resources (ARN) is releasing the results from drilling at the VC1 and VC3 targets at the Narndee Igneous Complex in WA
- One drill hole at VC1 intersected 2.95 metres of massive to semi-massive sulphide and 35.95m of disseminated magmatic sulphide
- All holes at VC1 returned magmatic sulphides, with peak values of 1.05 per cent nickel, 2 per cent copper and 1.03 grams or palladium per tonne
- VC3 also returned positive results and ATN is planning to potentially test the area between the targets next

Aldoro Resources (ARN) is releasing the results from recent drilling at the VC1 and VC3 targets at the Narndee Igneous Complex.
ARN completed eight drill holes at the two targets, which are located within the Western Australia based asset.
Best results include a drill hole at VC1 that intersected 2.95 metres of massive to semi-massive sulphide and 35.95m of disseminated magmatic sulphide.
The company explained all holes drilled at this target had returned magmatic sulphides, with peak values of 1.05 per cent nickel, 2 per cent copper and 1.03 grams of palladium per tonne.
ARN said it was a pleasing result, which confirmed VC1 was a significant discovery and the wider Narndee project was highly prospective.
The company added there was potential for further high-grade nickel at the target due to preferential remobilisation and metal segregation.
Along with the pleasing results at VC1, Aldoro said it encountered evidence the VC3 was highly prospective for nickel-copper PGE mineralisation.
The target was intersected approximately 380 metres downhole, with the anomaly appearing to be associated with an internal raft of sulphidic meta sediment, hosted by high magnesium oxide ultramafics and mafics.
Next steps for the company will be to potentially carry out deeper penetrating geophysical techniques so it can assess the potential of the area between VC1
and VC3.
Aldoro Resources was trading 6.45 per cent in the red at 43.5 cents each at 3:07 pm AEST.
