Latitude 66 Reports Fieldwork Results

Latitude 66 reported results from fieldwork at its Peräpohja Schist Belt project in northern Finland. Rock chip sampling at the Vinsa prospect returned extremely high Cu-Au assays from a historically known, mineralized quartz vein. (up to 11.3g/t Au & 20.1% Cu). Additional fieldwork resulted in the extension of the quartz vein to more than 1.3km […]

Kangasjärvi VMS Drilling Commences

Avrupa Minerals announced the start of drilling at the Kangasjärvi VMS project in central Finland. The up to 1000m diamond drilling program is designed to test two undrilled, high-priority conductors in the vicinity of the historic mine. Initial drilling will focus on the easier accessible southern anomaly, directly adjacent to the old working but cut […]

Korsnäs Drilling Returns High-Grade REE Mineralization

Prospech Limited reported the remaining assay results from its recent drilling program at the Korsnäs REE project in Finland. The drilling campaign (first since the ’70s) successfully intercepted REE mineralization in every drill hole, including very high grades as, for example, 12m @ 19,400ppm TREO (NdPrO2 3,567ppm), including 4m @ 51,096ppm TREO (NdPrO 9,157 ppm). […]

Mawson Releases Final Assays From Rajapalot

South Palokas Long Section

Mawson Finland reported the final assay results from a 38-drill hole 2024 winter diamond drilling campaign at its Rajapalot project in northern Finland. The drilling was successful in intersecting more high-grade mineralization down dip the South Palokas deposit, returning e.g. 6m @ 2.24g/t Au and 302ppm Co and 5.3m @ 2.75g/t Au and 559ppm Co […]

Re-Assayed Core From Black Schist Project

Metals One reported results from re-assaying of historic core at its Black Schist project in central Finland, returning e.g. 19.5m @ 0.22% Ni, 0.10% Cu, 0.017% Co, 0.36% Zn, including 12m @ 0.27% Ni, 0.12% Cu, 0.02% Co, 0.39% Zn. Ultimately, the company aims to define a 200MT resource at its Black Schist project that […]

Mawson Reports Assay Results From Raja And Joki Prospect

Mawson Finland reported the latest assay results from its winter 2024 drilling campaign at Rajapalot. Drilling at the Raja prospect was successful in expanding the mineralized envelope, intersecting multiple zones of mineralization, highlighted by e.g.5.8m @ 2.17g/t Au, 3m @ 2.43g/t Au or 8.6m @ 1.9g/t Au in drill hole PAL0347. Additional drilling at the […]

Korsnäs Drilling Validates Historic Intercepts

Prospech Limited reported initial assay results from its maiden drilling campaign at the former Korsnäs mine in Finland. Returning 15.44m @ 18,301ppm TREO, including 8.52m @ 24,731ppm TREO, drill hole KR-306 successfully validated historic intercepts.

GNM Identifies New Pegmatite Field In Southern Finland

Great Northern Minerals reported the identification of an extensive pegmatite swarm at its Sukula project in southern Finland. Lithogeochemistry and pXRF data indicate a highly evolved, fertile pegmatite with the potential for a spodumene-bearing core zone preserved at depth. The company is currently considering various geochemical and geophysical methods to further advance the prospect. Pegmatite […]

Endomines Reports Hosko Drilling Results

Hosko Drilling program 2024

Endomines reported exploration results from recent drilling at the Hosko target at the Karelian Gold Line in eastern Finland. The 23-drill hole, 2905m drilling program aimed at testing the continuity of the gold mineralization within the 1.2km mineralized trend. The program was successful in defining two high-grade zones in the vicinity of the recently opened […]

Korsnäs Drilling And Metallurgy Update

Prospech Limited 19.09.2024

Prospech Limited reported the completion of the first diamond drilling program at the Korsnäs REE project since the 1970s. Supported by the EU REMHub grant program, the 1000m program aimed at testing the known REE mineralization’s extensions and continuity while supporting the planned Korsnäs resource estimate and providing core for metallurgical test work. Utilizing the […]
