Commander and Donner Commence EM Survey on the Sarah Lake Nickel
Property; Commander Retains BMK Communications For Investor
Relations
======================================================================
News Release: #07-23
Commander Resources Ltd. (CMD - TSX Venture) reports that a detailed
low frequency ground Electromagnetic (EM) survey has commenced on the
Sarah Lake Property, Labrador. Commander also reports that it has
retained BMK Communications Inc. of Vancouver, B.C., to provide
investor relations and marketing services.
The Sarah Lake property is a Joint Venture between Commander and Donner
Metals and is located about 90 kilometres south of the 150 Mt Voisey's
Bay Nickel Mine. The property covers a portion of the extensive Pants
Lake Gabbro Complex, which is similar in age and chemical composition
to the intrusions that host Voisey's Bay.
On the Sarah Lake Property, as reported in the Company's news release
dated September 13, 2007, previous drilling to the west of the property
in the 1990's intersected 0.5% nickel to 11.9% nickel with several
intercepts on the Sarah Lake Property grading 0.4 to 0.9% nickel. A
large area of the key basal contact of the gabbro lies within a few
hundred metres of the surface and has not been sufficiently explored
for nickel-bearing massive sulphide accumulation.
Discrete geophysical conductors on the property were identified from
previous surveys to be at a depth coincident with the interpreted base
of the gabbro where sulphides could have accumulated. High grade
nickel sulphide deposits are usually highly conductive bodies and
therefore, a detailed low frequency EM survey is required to isolate
and define the strongest and potentially the most metal rich portions
of the known conductors. This new geophysical data along with existing
geological, geochemical and geophysical data will be used to prioritize
targets for drill testing in 2008.
Commander owns 48.2% of the Sarah Lake Property. Donner Metals owns
51.8% and is operator of the Joint Venture.
Commander also holds other interests in the larger South Voisey's Bay
area including 59.9% of the Adlatok 1 Property and 100% of Sally and
Sadie properties on which there are existing geophysical conductors.
These other properties will be surveyed with a similar EM system in
2008 and will be drill-tested if warranted.
Summary information and maps of the properties can be found on the
Company's website at www.commanderresources.com.
