Resource Mining (ASX:RMI) confirm scale nickel-cobalt resource
February 28, 2023Resource Mining Corporation has boosted its initial nickel-cobalt resource to 42.1 million tonnes at its Ruossakero deposit within the large Ruossakero Reserve in the north-western edge of Finland.
The significant resource has been confirmed to contain 168.4 Kt of nickel, and 6.7 Kt of cobalt JORC 2012 compliant Mineral Resource Estimate (ASX: MRE), independently estimated and approved by Snowden Optiro.
Extensive areas of komatiitic geology remain underexplored within the permit area, and a recent desktop review highlighted intercepts of 0.89% Ni and 3.15% Cu that are yet to be thoroughly tested.
The recent field survey has identified the widespread presence of sulphides within the Archaean-aged host rocks.
The review and re-estimation defined an MRE by the JORC Code (2012) reporting guidelines of 42.1Mt @ 0.40%Ni (at Ni cut-off 0.30%Ni), and 0.005%Cu, 0.016%Co, 0.554%S.
“We are incredibly pleased with this outcome, as it represents a significant resource in its own right and provides a solid foundation to grow something larger.
“Its location with Finland is ideal, given the nation is Europe’s largest nickel producer and is positioning itself as a critical provider to the European battery metals supply chain.
“With RMI only recently acquiring the Finnish assets, this resource represents deep value for shareholders and offers significant potential in a brownfield setting within a progressive jurisdiction.”
