Vital Metals’ Post

American West Metals Ltd's Managing Director, Dave O'Neill presented at the Natural Resources Matinée in Sydney. American West Metals (ASX: AW1) is focused on the discovery of major copper and other clean energy mineral deposits in North America. Our strategy is to develop low cost mines that have a low-footprint and support the global energy transformation. American West is principally focussed on the Storm Copper Project where a maiden MRE at Storm (released 29 January 2023) defined 17.5Mt @ 1.2% Copper and 3.4g/t Silver. The shallow copper mineralisation at Storm is open in all directions and there is outstanding growth potential given only 5% of the 100km long prospective copper belt within the project area has been explored. The 2024 exploration and drilling campaign will be focused on two clear strategies: Expansion of existing, and definition of new copper resources, in the Storm area; and Exploration to generate and test new targets within the Storm area, and to expand the exploration into the Tornado, Blizzard and Tempest discovery areas.

We are pleased to provide an update on the results from SGS Lakefield on four individual composites from our Edleston Main Resource at the Edleston #Gold Project, #Canada. Key Highlights: ▪️ SGS Lakefield performed 9 individual gravity and cyanide leachability tests on 4 composite core samples from the Edleston Main Zone Gold Resource. ▪️ Testing represents first material from Edleston Main Zone to undergo leaching analysis and further optimisation potential identified. ▪️ Recoveries for gravity and leach processing ranged between 89.1% and 93.3%. ▪️ Head grades ranged between 0.92g/t and 1.21g/t Au. Managing Director, Russell Bradford, commented: “This standard gold metallurgical test program has clearly demonstrated the gold associated with our deposit is susceptible to a particularly high rate of recovery. The testing utilised was aimed at modulating conventional gold recovery methods and industry standard reagent additions and residence times. “This exercise has now demonstrated that we have a significant gold deposit that can be recovered through conventional mill gravity circuit and a carbon-in-leach plant at a energy efficient grind size. These results now allow the Aston Board to consider options on the deposit which may include development or potential sale which will be value accretive to shareholders.” Read the full ASX announcement here: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gJuCzEPQ #ASO #ASXNews #exploration

Technical Program Highlight! 🌟 Don’t miss “Minerals Reporting for Critical Minerals – The Need for Separate Reporting Systems for Government and Industry” at MRMR 2024! Dive into an essential discussion on the differing needs of government and industry when it comes to reporting critical minerals. A technical presentation by: Ed Sides, Chairperson, PERC Standard (NRO for Europe) Mark Burnett, Principal Geologist, AMC Consultants Alastair Moyes, Consultant David Dingemans (EurGeol), PERC Standard Discover how the EU’s Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA) and the UN Framework Classification (UNFC) interact with CRIRSCO reporting codes, and gain insights into the newly updated ‘bridging document’ released in April 2024. Join us to explore how these frameworks address the needs of both strategic and regulatory reporting. https://lnkd.in/e3yA9sNT #MRMR2024 #MineralsReporting #CriticalMinerals #RegulatoryCompliance #MiningIndustry #StrategicResources

Today on The Alpine: Fireweed Metals announced a substantial increase in resource estimates for its Yukon Zinc Project, highlighting its potential in the region. Premier Ranj Pillai participated in welcoming the CanArctic trade mission, which focuses on eco-friendly energy and enhancing cooperation between northern regions. Bob Charlie, a respected First Nation leader, musician, and cultural icon, was remembered for his lasting contributions to the Yukon. In community news, the regional FireFit competition faced postponement due to funding shortages, disappointing local participants. Meanwhile, the Canadian government committed $42 million to improve critical minerals infrastructure in Yukon, a significant step towards advancing the mining sector and promoting sustainable development in the territory. Concerns arose surrounding a cyanide contamination in groundwater near the Eagle Gold mine, following a mining incident, drawing attention to environmental safety and regulations. This collection of updates demonstrates a mix of economic growth potential and challenges for the Yukon, blending opportunities in mining, trade, and environmental stewardship with the local community's ongoing development. https://lnkd.in/g6jRg8qg
