The focus of the 2010 summer drill program at the Rönnbäcken Nickel Project was to infill and extend the nickel sulphide mineralization at the Sundsberget deposit, which was discovered by drilling completed during the winter.

As a result, IGE Resources has again substantially increased the exploration target, to 600 to 650 million tonnes at a grade of 0.17 to 0.21% total nickel (0.10 to 0.15% nickel in sulphides).
