Sukula Lithium Project Exploration Results

Great Northern Minerals reported rock chip sampling results from its first pass exploration program at the Sukula project, bordering United Lithium’s Kietyönmäki project. Assay results returned up to 0.1% Li2O and 408ppm Ta2O5, resulting in the definition of four high-priority areas for highly fractionated LCT pegmatites (Sukula NW, Sukula Central, Sukula West, and Sukula North). Notably, […]

Copper Assays From Kopsa

Northgold reported copper assays from three important step-out drill holes at its Kopsa project. Following the reception of the copper assays the improved intersections now grade e.g. 0.99g/t AuEq over 105.7m, including 1.41 g/t AuEq over 34.2m and 1.34g/t AuEq over 37.75m in drill hole NGKOP23034. Assays for another 8 drill holes from the 2023 […]

Kuusisuo Lithium Sampling Results

Great Northern Minerals reported assay results from rock chip sampling at its Kuusisuo lithium project in Finland. The sampling program returned up to 0.32% LiO2 in a newly discovered area of lithium mineralization 200-500m to the south of an area with historic drilling, indicating a potentially large-scale mineralized system extending for at least 1.3km at […]

Drilling Underway At Pontio

Gemdale Gold reported the completion of a capital raise as well as encouraging initial results from new drilling at its Pontio Gold project in western Finland. Following the capital raise, the company started drill testing the southern part of the M2 trend, where previous BOT sampling indicates the continuation of gold mineralization. Initial visual results […]

High-Grade REE Intersections

Prospech Limited reported high-grade REE intersections from re-assaying of historic drill core from its Korsnäs REE project in Finland. The assay results from 40 historic drill holes returned multiple zones of thick REE mineralization, e.g. 27.6m @ 19,774 ppm TREO, including 16.1m @ 32,717 ppm TREO in drill hole KR-139 or 7.7m @ 34,191 ppm […]

Karelian Gold Line Drill Results

Endomines reported assay results from recent exploration drilling at its Korvilansuo and Kuittila projects along the Karelian gold line. Highlighted assay results at Korvilansuo include e.g. 15.2m @ 3.4g/t Au, including 1.1m @ 19.2g/t Au, and 1.0m @ 15.4g/t Au in drill hole KVS-66 and 3.8m @ 8.4g/t Au, including 1.1m @ 20g/t Au in […]

Li Drilling Results From Southern Finland

Li Drilling Results From Southern Finland

United Lithium published assay results from a recent drill program at its Kietyönmäki Li project in southern Finland. Drilling was successful in confirming the lithium mineralized main dyke to be more than 200m long, up to 25m wide, and at least 160m deep, with the system remaining open along strike to the southeast and at […]

Wide Ni Intersections From Hotinvaara

Nordic Nickel reported assays from seven additional drill holes from its phase 1 drilling program at the Hotinvaara project. Highlighted results include e.g., 117.9m @ 0.22% Ni from 4.1m in drill hole HOT013, or 103.2m @ 0.19% Ni from 37.55m in HOT019. According to the company partial leach assaying confirms the predominance of nickel sulfide […]

United Lithium Increases Landholdings

United Lithium Increases Landholdings

United Lithium announced a 20000ha increase in its land package at the Kietyönmäki Li project in southern Finland. The new claim reservation is located approximately 6km to the SE of the company’s main Kietyönmaki tenure and contains historically known lithium and tungsten-bearing pegmatites as well as favorable geology, making the area prospective for identifying new […]

Nordic Nickel – New Exploration License Granted

Nordic Nickel - New Exploration License Granted

Nordic Nickel advised it was granted the Holtinvaara exploration license at its Pulju project in northern Finland. The license is located approx. 5km to the NE of the Hotinvaara Mineral Resource and covers the continuation of highly prospective ultramafic rocks of the Mertavaara formation. The company further advised that 28 drill holes for a total […]
