Pioneer Nickel today announced that it is finalising an agreement with its largest shareholder, Xstrata Nickel Australasia Pty Ltd ("Xstrata"), to maintain focus on the Acra JV Project following the return of important exploration results earlier this year. Under the agreement Xstrata will provide $1.2 million to Pioneer to explore the Acra Project on behalf of the JV over a two year period. Xstrata has also subscribed to a placement in Pioneer and increased its shareholding position to 19.8%.

The Quarterly Report for the period ending 30 September 2008 is now available.

Encouraging results have again been generated from Company projects, including further gold results from Lignum Dam, nickel from Golden Ridge and manganese from Ravensthorpe. The inaugural drilling program for cobalt-nickel at the Mt Thirsty South Project has also generated a target for future evaluation.

This round of drilling, comprising 10 holes for approximately 1,000m is now finished and the drilling rig has moved to another Company project. The work successfully investigated an earlier drill intercept of 68m at 0.56% Ni, 403ppm Cu and 279ppb Pt+Pd in GRA0223.
Pioneer's geologist noted that for hole GRA0275, while the majority of samples were weathered, disseminated sulphides are present within fresh ultramafic rock.

Coupled with this, Pioneer has identified a manganese-rich mineralised horizon at Ravensthorpe, meaning the company is diversifying away from nickel somewhat unintentionally.

Pioneer has entered into a joint venture with Galaxy Resources Limited to explore for high grade copper and gold mineralisation on tenements and tenement applications near Ravensthorpe, Western Australia.

Pioneer will be the manager of the Ravensthorpe Joint Venture and can earn an initial 75% and up to an 85% interest in the project by spending $500,000 on exploration on the joint venture tenements.

The Ravensthorpe district has a long history of copper and gold production. From 1897 to 1971, the district produced nearly 50% of Western Australia’s copper. The most significant producing mines in the district included the Elverdton, Mt Desmond, Mt Cattlin and Marion Martin mines, all of which occur within the Ravensthorpe Joint Venture. The mines closed in 1971 due to the then prevailing low copper prices.
