Poseidon Nickel Limited’s Post

Amid a global search for sources of critical minerals, AuKing Mining Limited has entered into an option agreement to acquire the #MyoffCreek niobium/rare earth elements (REE) project in British Columbia, Canada.  The project is in the strategic South-Central mining region of British Columbia, an area renowned for its rich mineral deposits, mineral extraction and processing. British Columbia hosts several significant niobium/REE projects including the 34.2 million tonnes at 2% #TREO Wicheeda Project, the 53 million tonnes at 1,680 ppm niobium Blue River Project and the South-Central region hosts major mining operations including Teck Resources’ Highland Valley Copper Mine and Hudbay Minerals Inc’s Copper Mountain Mine.

South Africa is hailed the world over for its mineral wealth and has hosted a thriving large-scale mining industry since the mid-1800s. BUT LETS FACE IT... The primary victims of South Africa’s one size fits all stringent mining regulatory system are the local artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) operations.

via Mining.com.au Tennant Minerals is planning to begin another phase of drilling at the Bluebird #copper-#gold discovery in the Northern Territory, Australia. #TMS will be testing new priority targets within the expanded, 2.5km strike length, Bluebird-Perseverance mineralised corridor. #Drilling will also aim to extend the Bluebird discovery and define ‘high-grade’ copper-gold mineralisation from near surface to over 400m depth and more than 800m strike length, with the objective of defining a maiden mineral resource that will support a stand-alone #mining and processing operation.

via Mining.com.au Black Canyon Limited plans to stay in the East Pilbara for the long-term but will evaluate opportunities in #manganese within other jurisdictions as they arise. Executive Director Brendan Cummins tells Mining.com.au the company will in the meantime continue to explore its other tenements with capital deployment planned to undertake further prospectivity analysis. This will be through the integration of multiple datasets and importantly boots on ground evaluations. “Once targets have been assessed then further detailed exploration will be planned that might include ground geophysical surveys and drilling.” The Executive Director says the current market fundamentals look solid for manganese – which is the fourth-most used metal – which bodes well for #BCA given the type of manganese it will produce.

via Mining.com.au Viking Mines is gearing up to conduct an aircore or reverse circulation #drilling program at its First Hit Lithium Project in Western Australia, upon identifying 19 lithium anomalies and 8 priority targets. The planned drilling program will be testing the anomalies uncovered, subject to more ‘positive’ results being received. #VKA conducted a 1,220-hole auger program at First Hit and the results returned 19 lithium anomalies throughout the area and 8 immediate priority targets. The 8 priority targets have associated caesium, tantalum, and thallium anomalies which are characteristics of #lithium-#caesium-#tantalum (LCT) pegmatites known to host spodumene mineralisation.
