Zeb nickel project completes airborne electromagnetic survey

LIMPOPO PROVINCE, SOUTH AFRICA - URU Metals Limited announced Thursday the completion of a high-powered SpectremPlus airborne electromagnetic (AEM) survey at its Zeb Nickel Project in South Africa’s Limpopo Province.

The survey covered approximately 736 line-kilometers at 150-meter traverse spacing using Spectrem’s converted DC-3 turboprop aircraft equipped with proprietary technology capable of detecting conductive bodies at depths exceeding 700 meters.

Final processed datasets, 3D inversion models and an integrated geophysical interpretation are expected by the end of August 2025, according to the company’s press release statement.

The Spectrem Air team has begun final processing of the survey data. URU’s geophysical consultant will subsequently complete a full interpretation and integrate it with recently acquired gravity and magnetic datasets. Geofocus has been tasked with combining geological, gravity, magnetic, and electromagnetic data into a unified 3D geophysical block model.

URU Metals plans to use these results to refine and prioritize drill targets focused on potential nickel-sulfide mineralization. The company expects to release results along with an updated technical program and drill-target inventory shortly after receiving the final deliverables near the end of Q3 2025.

The survey was completed on schedule and within budget parameters, the company reported.

URU Metals is focused on developing critical metals projects in South Africa.
