Pulju – Additional Wide Zones Of Ni-Sulfides
Nordic Nickel reported additional wide zones of nickel sulfides from its maiden 22 000m drilling campaign at the Pulju project in northern Finland. Assays from an additional three drill holes returned e.g., 199.1m @ 0.22% Ni in drill hole HOT006 or 63.8m @ 0.22% Ni, 0.01% Co in drill hole HOT003. Assaying further confirmed that […]
Falun Exploration Update
Alicanto Minerals provided an update on ongoing target generation ahead of diamond drilling at Falun. Following a drill program at the Skyttgruvan-Näverberg target in late 2022 and an evaluation of historical data from the recently acquired Falun mine area, the company narrowed its exploration efforts on a 3.5km mineralized trend between Skyttgruvan-Näverberg and the Falun […]
SkyTEM To Commence At Puolalaki
Avira Resources announced that a SkyTEM survey at the Puolalaki project is to commence shortly. The heli-borne survey aims to screen the entire project area for moderate-strong conductors down to a depth of 100-200m – below the depth penetration of historically used slingram methods. Logging of the holes drilled in April is progressing steadily with […]
