District Metals Applies For Large Polymetallic Deposit
District Metals announced its application for a mineral license, covering a large part of the polymetallic Viken deposit in central Sweden. Viken is a large, undeveloped Alum shale vanadium-uranium-molybdenum-nickel-copper-zinc deposit with a 2014 resource estimate outlining 43Mt @ 0.019% U3O8, 0.034% Ni, 0.010% Cu and 0.041% Zn in the indicated and 3Bt @ 0.017% U3O8, […]
Highest-Grade Ni From Lappvattnet To Date
Gungnir Resources announced its highest-grade nickel intercept from Lappvattnet to date. Drill hole LAP22-25 returned 18.28m @ 1.49% Ni, including 5.76m @ 4.04% Ni. The hole was drilled in a 50m gap in the central part of the deposit, between historic holes LAP74292 and LAP76008, with the intersection potentially representing a zone of structural thickening. […]
Exploration Trenching Results From Rääpysjärvi
Beowulf Mining reported on encouraging exploration results from its wholly owned subsidiary Grafintec Oy. Four exploration trenches testing a conductive anomaly intersected significant flake graphite mineralization, grading e.g. 10.6m @ 4.33% total graphitic carbon (TGC) and 3.8m @ 5.77% TGC in trench RAA-TR1-22, or 1m @ 26% TGC in trench RAA-TR4-22. According to the company, […]
Amitsoq Island Final Drill Results
GreenRoc Mining reported the remaining assays from its phase 2 drill program at the Amitsoq Island Graphite project in southern Greenland. Results from both the lower and upper graphite layer grade around the 20% graphite mark, with mineable widths (>2m true thickness) intersected in eight holes of the UGL as well as in all 19 […]
Pulju – Exploration Licenses Granted
Nordic Nickel was granted six new exploration licenses in the Greater Pulju area. The newly granted landholdings comprise 78.18 km2 of prospective ground for nickel sulfide exploration, including multiple areas of known nickel mineralization. Notably, the company has a further 10 license applications currently pending that would, once granted, allow it to control the entirety […]
Lappvattnet – Footwall Mineralization Intersected
Gungnir Resources published new assay results and reported the identification of a new footwall nickel target from its Lappvattnet project in northern Sweden. Drilled in the western part of the deposit, hole LAP22-10 returned 7m @ 1.16% Ni, while several drill holes in the central part of the deposit intersected a new zone, believed to […]
Kuniko – New Copper Claims Granted
Kuniko was granted two new exploration licences in the historically important, copper producing Trondelag county, Norway. The VÃ¥gÃ¥ Copper project consists of 312.6km2 in an area with 9 historical copper mineral occurrences including former copper mines. The 73km2 Gullklumpan Copper project includes outcropping nickel-copper-cobalt mineralization, contains a 3km long feature marked by a coincident magnetic […]
Bluejay Mining – Enonkoski Update
Bluejay Mining provided an update on its Enonkoski Rio Tinto Joint venture project. Recent activities include magnetic susceptibility, conductivity, and handheld XRF measurements on historic drill core from the Makkola prospect as well as the commencement of a 670-station, ground gravity survey over the wider Makkola-Hälvälä area, aiming to generate new drill targets. The company […]
DHEM Results From Pulju
Nordic Nickel published results from recent geophysics at its Pulju project in northern Finland. Results from DHEM surveying of 17 historic holes at the Hotinvaara prospect show multiple conductors that correlate with historic intersects above >0.5% Ni. The modeled plates confirm the continuity of mineralization in multiple directions, underlining the potential to expand the existing, […]
Geophysical And Geochemical Results from Nyberget
Kuniko reported strong geophysical and geochemical results from its Undal-Nyberget copper project. Geophysical modeling defined two high-priority targets at the Myrmalm and Oyasaetra prospects. The modeled Maxwell plates at Myrmalm fit well with structural data, thus likely representing large, stratiform conductors. Outcropping mineralization along strike to the south and coincident geochemical anomalies make Myrmalm and […]
