African Eagle has issued a drilling update for its nickel project in Tanzania, with initial tests indicating a positive result.

The company said the test found that the Ngasamo Hill deposit at the Dutwa project contains similar nickel grades to those seen at the main deposit, but over greater thickness.

"Although these assays are only initial results, they reinforce our belief that Ngasamo has the potential to increase the Dutwa resource," said managing director Mark Parker.
