Puolalaki – Additional Massive Sulfide Intersections
Avira Resources announced the intersection of additional, near-surface massive sulfide at its Puolalaki Ni-Cu-Co-Au project in northern Sweden. Following the intersection of massive nickel sulfide mineralization in April 2023, phase 2 was designed to infill around this near-surface discovery. According to the company, infill drilling was successful, with three out of four holes intersecting similar […]
Kuniko Enters Lithium Exploration In Sweden
Kuniko announced assay results from reconnaissance lithium exploration in Sweden. Rock chip sampling at the Väne Ryr project returned significant lithium grades up to 2.64% and 4.59% Li2O. The company notes that chemical analysis and visual mineral identification indicate lepidolite to be the main lithium mineral. Additional mineralogical XRD analysis to confirm the nature of […]
District Metals Consolidates Viken Project
District Metals announced it entered into a definitive purchase agreement to acquire four mineral licenses (Norra Leden, Norr Viken, Lill Viken & Storviken) covering parts of the Viken energy metals deposit in central Sweden. Subject to closing, the company will control 100% of the Viken deposit which ranks amongst the largest uranium and vanadium deposits […]
LKAB – Ore Line Disruption Update

Olserum North Exploration Update
Ragnar Metals provided an update for its Olserum North Rare Earth project. Following the previous identification of high-grade heavy REE mineralization at Olserum North, the company reviewed airborne magnetic data to explore for additional prospects in the area. The review resulted in the definition of magnetic anomalies over 17km, leading the company to secure the […]
Falun Drilling Update
Alicanto Minerals provided an update on its ongoing diamond drilling program at the Falun copper-gold project in Sweden. Drilling at Krondiket was designed to test a gravity anomaly together with historic copper showings associated with the ore horizon. The drill hole intercepted highly altered footwall mineralization that the company associates with a new upflow system […]
Puolalaki Phase 2 Drilling To Commence
Avira Resources announced a phase two diamond drilling program at the Puolalaki Ni-Cu-Co-Au project to commence in early December. As part of the planned, 6-hole, 805m program, the company aims to infill around recent massive sulfide intercepts (e.g. 36m @ 0.63% Ni, 0.57% Cu, 952ppm Co in PUO23002), test an off hole conductor from recent […]
New Lithium Discoveries At Bergby
United Lithium announced the discovery of new spodumene-bearing pegmatites at its Bergby project in central Sweden. As part of an ongoing, expanded, 6000m drill program, the company is currently drill testing newly discovered pegmatites D and E, with assay results from Pegmatite D returning e.g. 1.92% Li2O over 26.80m (from 3.60m down hole) in drill […]
REE Potential At Blötberget
Nordic Iron Ore reported on additional REE assay results of historic drill core from its Blötberget Iron deposit. New results returned up to 15285ppm TREO in the footwall of the ore body and 876ppm TREO in the main ore body from 548-566m. The company plans to further investigate the size and scale of the REE […]
Ragnar Lithium Sampling Assays
Ragnar Metals reported lithium assay results from recent exploration efforts at its Swedish properties. Sampling at the Orrvik & Bergom projects returned rock chip samples grading e.g. 1.7% Li2O and 27.9ppm Ta2O5 at the Stenback prospect or 1.2% LiO2 and 262ppm Ta2O5 at the Orrvik prospect. At the Hälleberget lithium project, new lithium mineralization, grading […]
