Rare Earths Norway Publishes Maiden Estimate For Fen-Complex

Rare Earths Norway published a maiden mineral resource estimate for its Fen REE project in southern Norway. The JORC-compliant, inferred resource has been estimated to a depth of 468m below mean sea level, returning 559Mt @ 1.59% TREO for a total of 8.8Mt contained rare earths. Going forward, the company plans to continue exploration activities […]

New REE Results From Olserum

European Green Transition reported high-grade assay results from additional field work at its Olserum REE project in southern Sweden. Following the discovery of an outcrop grading 0.74% TREO, the mineralization at Djupedal has now been extended over a 1km strike length. Recent forestry activity further uncovered additional historic dumps and trenches near the extremely high-grade […]

Vittangi Scoping Study Results

Talga Group published results from a scoping study considering potential expansions at its Vittangi Graphite project. The proposed mine plans support annual production rates of 0.6Mt, 1.0Mt, or 2.0Mt, resulting in potentially up to 425,000tpa of anode precursor concentrate.   Nunasvaara South mine infrastructure (Source: www.talgagroup.com)

Kuniko Updates On Resampling Of Historic Core

Kuniko provided an update on resampling of historic drill core from the Ertelien project. The sampling program aims to assay approx. 3000m of un-sampled core from the Nickel-Copper-Cobalt project. Historic sampling focused on massive and semi-massive sulfide mineralization only, disregarding disseminated mineralization. In addition to the resampling of historic core, the company is currently in […]

Teako Commences 2024 Field Exploration

Teako Minerals announced the commencement of its regional summer exploration program in southern Norway. Located in the wider Sanderfjord area, the projects are prospective for phosphate and REE mineralization, as indicated by the Kodal deposit, adjacent to one of Teako’s licenses, which boasts a JORC-compliant indicated resource of 14.6Mt @ 5.18% P2O5 and 24.12% Fe […]

United Lithium Stakes More Ground In Finland

United Lithium Stakes More Ground In Finland

United Lithium announced that a new reservation notice for a project highly prospective for lithium mineralization has been received and approved by the Finnish Mining Authority. The Kannus reservation is located directly north of the Keliber Lithium deposit in Western Finland and encompasses around 15 km2. Following the grant of the reservation, the company has […]

Talga Publishes New Graphite Exploration Target

Talga Group published an updated JORC exploration target of 240-350Mt @ 20-30% graphite for its Vittangi project in northern Sweden. Following a compilation of new and updated drilling data, Skytem and ground TEM surveys, geological mapping and 3D modeling, the updated exploration target represents a significant increase from the previously reported 170-200Mt @ 20-30% Cg. […]

Ragnar Identifies More Rare Earths At Olserum North

Ragnar Metals reported assay results from its second field program at the Olserum North REE project in southern Sweden. Sampling was successful in identifying more mineralization at the Flaken and Hylleled prospects, returning assays up to 4.1% TREO and locally containing up to 65% heavy rare earths. The discovery of a new REE mineralized biotite/magnetite […]

Bastion Commences Work In Bergslagen

Bastion Commences Work In Bergslagen

Bastion Minerals announced the commencement of fieldwork at its Gyttorp project and surrounding applications in central Bergslagen. The planned work aims to follow up on known copper and REE mineralization through XRF mapping and rock chip sampling. The company further plans to resample historic core from two of its new application areas, where historic assays […]

Channel Sampling Confirms New REE Prospect

European Green Transition reported results from recent channel and grab sampling at its Olserum REE project in southern Sweden. Channel sampling at the Djupedal prospect was successful in identifying a new, 100m wide, high-priority target with the best channels returning 3m @ 1.577 % TREO (Channel 007) and 1m @ 2.273% TREO (channel 008, offset […]
