VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 15, 2023 / Gama Explorations Inc. (CSE:GAMA)(OTCQB:GMMAF)(FSE:N79) ("Gama" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the purchase of a further 78.8 km2 of mineral claims contiguous to the current project footprint of its Tyee Nickel Project in the Havre St. Pierre Anorthosite Complex ("HSP Complex") in south-eastern Quebec. The purchase of these additional claims brings Gama's aggregate land position to 625.9 km2.
Mick Carew, PhD, CEO of Gama, noted "Gama continues to expand its land holdings at its Tyee Nickel Project, taking the Company's total land holdings to 625.9 km2, the largest land position held by a company in the HSP Anorthosite complex. We continue the planning phase for our first phase of exploration scheduled to begin in May with a SkyTEM airborne geophysical survey. The results of this survey will form the basis of delineating prospective targets for follow-up mapping, prospecting, and rock-chip sampling so that we may be in a better position to plan our maiden drill program on the project."
