Capella Minerals – Kjoli & Hessjogruva Updates

Capella Minerals reported initial assay results from scout drilling at its Kjoli Cu-Zn-Co VMS project, targeting combined geological and geophysical anomalies. The best assay results received to date returned e.g. 2.9m @ 1.4% Cu in drill hole KJ-004 or 1.8m @ 3% Zn + 0.6% Cu in drill hole KJ-007. The company further advised it […]

Ertelien – Final Assay Results

Kuniko reported the final assay results from its maiden drilling campaign at the Ertelien Nickel prospect. Among others, drill hole KNI_ER005 returned 4.8m @ 0.89% Ni, 0.43% Cu, 0.06% Co, 0.16g/t 3E and 4m @ 0.83% Ni, 0.45% Cu, 0.05% Co, 0.13g/t 3E. Following its maiden drilling at Ertelien, the company identified two mineralized domains, […]

High-Grade Nickel From Stormyra

Kendrick Resources announced additional assay results from recent drilling at the Stormyra prospect in Norway. Several drill holes intersected high-grade nickel mineralization, with the best hole returning 11.6m @ 3.39% NiEq, including 4.9m @ 5.8% NiEq. In addition, downhole optic televiewer structural mapping has been conducted on 13 drill holes and a Ground EM survey […]

High-Grade Cobalt from Middagshvile

Kuniko reported initial assay results from recent drilling at its Middagshvile target where visual mineralization previously indicated the intersection of high-grade, near-surface cobalt mineralization. Assays from drill hole KNI_MDV011 returned 6.2m @ 0.43% Cobalt, thus confirming initial visual estimates. The drill hole further intersected 2.3m @ 0.07% Co and 0.33% Cu in a deeper zone […]

Stormyra Assay Results

Kenrick Resources reported results from a recently completed diamond drilling campaign at the Stormyra deposit. The 19-hole, 1650m drill program, designed for infill, step out and exploration drilling returned multiple mineralized intersections, e.g., 6.85% NiEq over 1.25m in drill hole ES2302 or 2.64% NiEq over 3.75m NiEq in hole ES2303. The company further completed a […]

Kingsrose Kicks Off Exploration At Rana

Kingsrose Mining provided an update on exploration activities at its Råna nickel-copper-cobalt project in northern Norway. In anticipation of a 5000m drilling campaign scheduled to commence in July, the company built a team of local geologists as well as a support crew and commenced geophysical work, including airborne and ground MT as well as ground […]

Undal-Nyberg Drilling Update

Kuniko reported visual results from drilling at its Undal-Nyberget copper project in central Norway. 8 drill holes for a total of 1544m have been drilled, testing multiple conductors at the Myrmalm prospect. Drilling intersected distinct zones of pyrite and pyrrhotite mineralization, thereby confidently explaining the modeled conductors.   Granular Pyrite intersected in drill hole KNI_NYB003 […]

Initial Assays From Ertelien

Kuniko reported initial assays from recent drilling at its Ertelien Nickel project, returning 25.1m @ 1.14% Ni, 1.2% Cu, 0.07% Co, 0.17g/t Au, 0.06g/t Pd and 0.03g/t Pt in drill hole KNI_ER001, a twin hole to ER2006-06B. Resampling of the historical hole previously returned similar grades over a comparable interval (28.1m @ 1.34% Ni, 1.19% […]

Stormyra Drilling Completed

Kendrick Resources advised the successful completion of 19 drill holes for 1650m at its Espedalen Ni-Cu project. Drilling focused on the Stormyra deposit where visible mineralization was intersected, indicating good continuity of the Stormyra ore body. After the reception of the assay results, the company plans further studies to support a mineral resource estimate update. […]

Skuterud – New Cobalt Zone Discovered

Kuniko reported the intersection of exceptional visual cobalt mineralization in a new, shallow horizon from recent drilling at its Skuterud Cobalt project. The visual near-surface mineralization was intersected in several drill holes (drilled from the same pad), north of a series of small historical mine workings. Drilling further resulted in the visual identification of cobalt […]
