Poseidon Nickel (ASX:POS) is looking on the bright side after the proposed sale of its Lake Johnson nickel-lithium project to Minerals Resources (ASX:MRL) fell through.

Exploration, in hiatus for four months while the sales process was taking place, has now kicked off again, with POS unearthing a bunch of greenfields targets to test with the drill bit.

The recovering nickel price is also helping.

Nickel up almost 3% today crossing that 20,000 usd/tonne resistance.
