Lappvattnet – High-Grade Nickel Intersected

Gungnir Resources reported the intersection of high-grade Nickel at its Lappvattent project in northern Sweden. Drill hole LAP22-19, collared in the central part of the deposit returned 9m @ 2.35% Ni, including 5.66m @ 3.02% Ni. The company notes that the mineralization intersected in LAP22-19 remains open at depth and new preliminary interpretations suggest locally […]

Conductor Identified At Porsanger

Kingsrose Mining published results from a recently completed, electromagnetic geophysical survey at its Porsanger project in Finnmark County, Norway. The survey was successful in identifying a large, shallow and highly conductive EM anomaly, measuring at least 350 x 400m at the Karenhaugen intrusion. Notably, the conductor is consistent with the mapped plunge of the intrusion […]

Amitsoq – Additional Graphite Occurences

GreenRoc Mining published results from a field exploration program that was running in parallel to recent drilling at the company’s flagship Amitsoq Island project in southern Greenland. A total of 18 rock chip samples were collected, defining several new targets from the northern Amitsoq Valley Bed prospect to the southern tip of Nanortalik Island, where […]

Assay Results From Skuterud

Kuniko reported assay results from initial drilling at the Skuterud Cobalt project. All holes drilled at the Middagshvile prospect intersected significant intervals of cobalt mineralization, e.g., 11.1m @ 0.09% cobalt, 0.23% Cu, including 2m @ 0.15% Co, 0.25% Cu and 4.1m @ 0.13% Co, 0.41% Cu in drill hole KNI_MDV004. The company is currently preparing […]

Avira Resources Acquires Puolalaki Ni-Cu-Co Project

Avira Resources announced the acquisition of the Puolalaki Ni-Cu-Co project in Sweden. Historic work at Puolalaki resulted in the discovery of gabbro hosted magmatic nickel sulfide mineralization, returning e.g. 24.1m @ 0.28% Ni, 0.22% Cu, 0.035% Co, including 10m @ 0.41% Ni, 0.23% Cu and 0.053% Co in drill hole PNO98004. The company notes that […]

Beowulf Mining – Graphite Project Update

Beowulf Mining provided an exploration update from the Rääpysjärvi flake graphite project advanced by its wholly-owned subsidiary Grafintec Oy. Results from an EM survey carried out in June 2022 returned 13 highly conductive zones, possibly indicating graphite-bearing rocks, with isolated anomalies extending for up to 850m along strike and 250m in width. Additionally, a total […]

Eclipse Metals – Greenland Drilling Commences

Eclipse Metals announced the commencement of a 2000m percussion drill program on its Ivigtut and Gronnedal project in southern Greenland, designed to follow up on earlier defined REE targets. In addition to the drilling, the company initiated a surface sampling program to test several targets from geophysical inversion modeling and satellite imagery analysis. The maiden […]

Capella Expands Battery Metal Focus

Capella Minerals announced the acquisition of a lithium and REE project portfolio in Finland. The portfolio, acquired from elementX Finland Oy consists of seven lithium pegmatite and rare-earth element reservations and applications in southern Finland. In consideration for the projects elementX’s shareholders will receive shares in Capella, amounting to approx. 10% of the company’s outstanding […]

More Magmatic Sulfides From Granmuren

Ragnar Metals provided an exploration update from its Granmuren Ni-Cu-Co prospect, where ongoing diamond drilling continues to intersect magmatic sulfide mineralization. Drill holes 22DDTS009 and 22DDTS010, drilled east and west of 21DDTTS007 (146.3m @ 0.6% Ni, 0.5% Cu, 0,05% Co), intersected several wide zones of sulfide mineralization, e.g. 103.0m @ 7% visual sulfides, including 35.1m […]

Hautalampi Resource Update

Hautalampi Resource

Eurobattery Minerals published an updated mineral resource estimate for its Hautalampi project. The update resulted in a 40% increase in contained metal, amounting to a measured and indicated resource of 9.3 Mt @ 0.28% Ni, 0.19% Cu, and 0.07% Co at Hautalampi and an inferred resource of 3.2 Mt @ 0.22% Ni, 0.13% Cu and […]
