The Podolsky mine produced ~1.5 Mt of 4.29% Cu, 0.38% Ni, 0.051 oz/t Pt, 0.054 oz/t, Pd, and 0.024 oz/t Au, between 2007 and 2011. The Podolsky deposit is situated ~650 m below the Ni-Cu-Co Whistle deposit, which is at the intersection of the basal contact of the SIC and the offset structure. Podolsky is a hybrid deposit that displays “sharpwalled” and “low-sulphide” elements of footwall mineralization systems in the 2000 deposit zone.
