Conico – Drilling At Ryberg Completed

Conico advised that drilling activities at its polymetallic Ryberg project in Greenland have concluded with a total of 11 holes completed. The company notes, that copper sulfides were logged in core from the Miki and Sortekap prospects where they occur as disseminated sulfides in mafic dykes. The company notes, that surface samples from both locations […]

Bluejay Mining – Geophysical Survey Completed

Bluejay Mining provided an update from its Kangerluarsuk Zn-Pb-Ag project, located near the historic Black Angel mine in western Greenland. The company advised the completion of an aerial geophysical survey, measuring nearly 600 line kilometers of gravity gradiometry, magnetic, and terrain data. The newly produced datasets will be used to further update the company’s Kangerluarsuk […]

Nalunaq Resource Update

Amaroq Minerals published an updated mineral resource estimate from its Nalunaq Gold project in southern Greenland. Totaling 355Kt @ 28g/t Au for 320Koz, the updated, inferred resource, resulted in a 50% increase in average grade and a 30% increase in contained gold. The company notes, that following the increase in average grade, the deposit now […]

Amaroq Minerals – Regional Exploration Update

Amaroq Minerals announced further results from its 2021 regional exploration program across southern Greenland. Ground reconnaissance in the Sondre Sermilik Area led to the re-discovery of a historically reported quartz boulder containing visible gold and returning 10.4g/t Au. Hyperspectral scanning of the nearby slopes resulted in the identification of a shallow dipping structure associated with […]

Eclipse Metals – Approval For Field Activities

Eclipse Metals - Approval For Field Activities

Eclipse Metals received approval for field activities at its Gronnedal project in southwestern Greenland. Following previous target identification, the company is now preparing to mobilize for percussion and diamond drilling at the REE prospect. Parallel to drilling at the Gronnedal Carbonatite Complex, the company also intends to further investigate the historic Ivigtut mine, in order […]

Drilling Update From Amitsoq

GreenRoc Mining provided an update on phase 2 drilling at its Amitsoq Graphite Project in southern Greenland. Following intersections of mineable widths in all holes drilled to date, the footprint of the deposit has now doubled and remains open towards northwest, west, and southwest. Visual inspections of the drill core suggest similar grades as returned […]

Conico – Greenland Drilling Update

Conico provided an exploration update on ongoing drilling at its Ryberg and Mestersvig projects in eastern Greenland. Drilling progressed to the second hole at both projects, testing gold and magmatic sulfide mineralization at Sortekap and Zn-Pb mineralization southeast of the historic Blyklippan mine. Due to personnel issues by the drilling contractor, the program continues with […]

Kvanefjeld exploitation permit

Greenland Minerals issued a statement regarding a draft decision by the Greenland Government that proposes to reject the company’s exploitation license application for the Kvanefjeld project. Kvanefjeld is one of the world’s largest undeveloped REE projects with over 1 billion tonnes of JORC-compliant mineral resources. The Greenland Government’s draft decision is based on a recent […]

GreenRoc Mining – Thule and Amitsoq Update

GreenRoc Mining provided an operational update from two of its advanced-stage projects in northwestern and southern Greenland. At the Thule Black Sands Ilmenite project, this year’s fieldwork will focus on conducting environmental baseline studies to lay the foundation for an upcoming EIA. Simultaneously, a social impact study and preliminary mining studies will be conducted to […]

AEX Gold Exploration Update

AEX Gold provided an exploration update from its Nanoq Gold prospect. Rock chip sampling at the prospect returned high-grade gold values up to 16.95 g/t Au. Notably, the sampling resulted in the discovery of previously unrecognized shear zones, increasing the potential target size of the prospect. According to the company, the mineralization appears open along […]
