Mestersvig 2022 Exploration Results

Conico reported 2022 drill and rock chip sampling results from its Mestersvig project in eastern Greenland. The drilling program targeted a fault structure running for 9km between the Blyklippen and Sortebjerg prospects, returning multiple intersections with a style and grade of mineralization analogous to the historic Blyklippen mine. The best hole, SBDD003 returned 4.5m @ […]

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 […]

Mo-Project Permitting Update

Greenland Resources provided a permitting update for its Malmbjerg Molybdenum project in central east Greenland. Following the completion of a definitive feasibility study in April 2022, the company got the Terms of Reference for the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Social Impact Assessment (SIA) approved by the Government of Greenland, submitted a navigational safety investigation […]

Nalunaq 2022 Exploration Update

Amaroq Minerals reported results from its 2022 exploration program at the Nalunaq gold deposit in southern Greenland. Aiming to infill the existing resource in the Valley Block as well as to test an up-dip extension, the company drilled 46 diamond holes for a total of 9119m. 42 out of the 46 drill holes intersected the […]

Skaergaard – Resource Update

Major Precious Metals published an updated Mineral Resource estimate for its Skaergaard project. Based upon 42050m of drilling and 1409m of channel sampling, the study defined an indicated resource of 160 Mt @ 2.23g/t PdEq resulting in 11.4 Moz PdEq, including 8.04 Moz Pd, 2.7 Moz Au, and 0.63 Moz Pt at a cut off […]

Initial pXRF readings from Gronnedal

Eclipse Metals announced initial XRF results from a recently terminated, maiden percussion drilling and trench sampling program at its Ivigtut and Gronnedal project. Initial XRF readings were taken on selected composites before sample shipment for comprehensive analysis to Australia. pXRF readings taken on five 1.5m composite samples from drill hole L3-9, drilled at Gronnedal returned […]

Initial Assay Results From Ryberg

Conico Limited announced initial assays from 2022 drilling at its Ryberg project in eastern Greenland. Drilling at the Miki prospected confirmed the fertile nature of the Miki Dyke with regards to magmatic sulfides and PGE’s, returning e.g. 6m @ 0.27% Cu, 0.06% Ni and 0.31g/t 3E in drill hole MIDD011. At the Sortekap prospect, drilling […]

More IOCG Indications From Sava

Amaroq Minerals published results from its 2022 exploration program at the Sava license in Southern Greenland. Scout drilling at Target West intersected anomalous copper in a potassic and sodic-altered monzonite, followed by significant magnetite alteration and molybdenum mineralization. Surface mapping further identified vein-hosted molybdenite with grades up to 7.86% Mo. At Target South, drilling identified […]

High-Grade Graphite From Greenland

GreenRoc Mining reported initial assay results from its 2022, phase two drill program at the Amitsoq Graphite project in southern Greenland. The first assay results from four of 19 phase two drill holes have returned high-grade graphite intersections between 20.99%-24.52% Cg in the main, lower graphite layer and between 17.29%-20.92% Cg in the upper graphite […]

Exploration Update From Historic Cryolite Mine

Eclipse Metals provided an exploration update from its Ivigtut project in southwest Greenland. 5 trenches were excavated at the historic Ivigtut Cryolite mine dumps, with five tonnes of bulk samples to be shipped and assessed for cryolite, fluorite, quartz, and other potentially economic minerals including REE, lithium, and tin. In addition, 9 percussion holes were […]
