Brisbane, July 31, 2015 AEST (ABN Newswire) - Axiom Mining Limited (googlechartASX:AVQ) had excellent results from the drilling program during the quarter. The company recorded a total of 129 holes with an aggregate of 2236m using one drilling rig, and consistently intercepted high grade nickel mineralisation especially at the prospect areas of Havihua and Kolosori Ridges.
