In previous announcement, N27 has completed its 3D modelling of a detailed helicopter borne magnetic survey over the Snettisham Vanadium Project in Southern Alaska which has shown historical surface samples of magnetite rich rock chips indicating the vanadium potential, with values up to 35.9% Fe, 0.56% V2O5 and 6.47% TiO2. Complex algorithm was used to calculate the distribution of magnetite based on its physical properties, primarily, its magnetic susceptibility. The process has resulted into prediction of a very large magnetite body beneath Snettisham in the order of 2.5-kilometre-long, up to 600-meter-wide and over 2 kilometre deep from less than 50 meter beneath surface.
