Talga Reports New Graphite Discovery

Talga Group provided an exploration update on its graphite projects in northern Sweden. At the Nunasvaara South deposit, the company recently completed a ground EM survey, aiming to delineate future drill targets to extend the existing resource at depth. Results are currently pending.

At its Vittangi nr 6 exploration permit, some 8km to the north of the Nunasvaara and Niska deposits, drilling of a strong EM conductor resulted in the discovery of a new graphite mineralization, returning e.g. 212m @ 4.5% Cg in drill hole VIT22006 or 77m @ 4.1% Cg. While the company sees potential for an increase in grade and scale of this discovery in the future, the development of Nunsavaara South and Niska remains its top priority.
