Bastion Minerals Extends Swedish REE Portfolio
Bastion Minerals announced it submitted applications for eight additional claims in Sweden’s Bergslagen Mining district, increasing its total landholdings to 279.5 km2. Prospective for REEs and Cu, the company plans to initiate exploration activities by sampling and potentially ground magnetic surveys once the permits are granted. Location of newly applied property claims in central […]
LKAB Reports Strong Increase in Mineral Resources
LKAB reported a substantial increase in its mineral resources. Following recent exploration success but also a change in modeling techniques and a lower modeling cut-off grade, the company now boasts combined resources and reserves of 5.7 billion tons. Most of the increase comes from a 43% increase in the mineral resource category, now amounting to […]
Beowulf Explores For Copper
Beowulf Mining reported on recent exploration at its Parkijaur nr 7 permit, located several kilometers southwest of the Kallak iron deposit. The area hosts a copper prospect, where historic drilling defined a 50 to 100m wide and 250m long copper mineralized zone at the contact between granites and gneisses, intersecting e.g., 6.2m @ 1.53% Cu, […]
Ragnar Identifies Anomalies At Olserum North
Ragnar Metals published results from recently completed magnetic and gravity geophysical surveys at its Olserum North HREE project. A drone magnetic survey was successful in identifying multiple magnetic trends in a 4.5km long and up to 1km wide corridor. A gravity survey in the SE part of this trend resulted in the identification of multiple […]
New Exploration Results from Puolalaki
Avira Resources reported new assay results from recent drilling its Puolalaki project. Results for two more holes testing the newly discovered, near-surface massive sulfide mineralization returned 17.05m @ 0.70% Ni, 0.70% Cu and 1049ppm Co in drill hole PUO23007 and 19.4m @ 0.35% Ni, 0.39% Cu and 558ppm Co, including 4.43m @ 0.73% Ni, 0.71% […]
High-Grade Cu From HĂĄkansboda
Lovisagruvan reported results from exploration drilling at its HĂĄkansboda prospect, located less than 1km northeast of its active mining operation. As part of a 1322m drilling program, the company tested the historically known copper-cobalt mineralization in three holes, returning e.g. 2.00m @ 1.27% Cu, 0.24% Co in drill hole 23HBD001 or 2.13m @ 1.52% Cu, […]
Resistivity Targets Identified At Orrvik
Ragnar Metals announced the identification of three new geophysical targets at its Orrvik Lithium project. The anomalies were identified by employing a resistivity tomography survey over the known lithium occurrences and their northern and southern extensions. The survey was successful in identifying high resistivity anomalies on all three profiles. While a high resistivity anomaly in […]
Drilling Commences At Tomtebo
District Metals announced the commencement of diamond drilling at its Tomtebo project in central Sweden. Advanced in collaboration with Boliden Mineral AB, the drill program at Tomtebo comprises 2250m in six to eight holes which will be followed up by Boliden’s in-house DHEM survey. Three of the drill holes are designed to test the Steffenburgs […]
Identification Of Eight Graphite Targets
Western Gold Resources announced the identification of 8 graphite targets at its Loberget and Hogaberg graphite projects, north of the Woxna graphite mine in central Sweden. Compilation and interpretation of existing geophysical datasets by Geovista resulted in the identification of three NW-striking conductors for a combined strike length of 11.5km at Loberget and five conductors […]
New Assay Results From Puolalaki
Avira Resources reported initial assay results from phase two drilling at the Puolalaki Ni-Cu-Co-Au project in northern Sweden. Following up on the massive sulfide discovery from April 2023, drill hole PUO23006 intersected 19m @ 0.65% Ni, 0.75% Cu, 954ppm Co from only 22m. Additionally, lower grade, disseminated mineralization was intercepted underneath the massive sulfide intercept […]
