Mawson Finland Limited ("Mawson" or the "Company") (TSX-V:MFL) is pleased to announce the mobilization of four diamond drill rigs, and a ‘base-of-till' (BOT) drilling rig to site, kicking-off the 2025 drill program at the Company's wholly-owned Rajapalot gold-cobalt project in Finland
Highlights:
Ms. Noora Ahola, Mawson Finland CEO, states: "We are very excited to report the commencement of our 2025 winter drilling campaign at Rajapalot. Presently, we have 2 drilling rigs now operating at Rajapalot, with two additional rigs scheduled to begin drilling this week. In addition, we also have a BOT drilling rig up-and-running making progress with our surface geochemical exploration programs around the greater Rajapalot project area. We look forward to presenting results of these drilling programs over the coming months as these exciting works advance and unfold at Rajapalot."
Winter drilling program
Three diamond drill rigs have been mobilized and have initiated drilling at Rajapalot, with one additional rig presently being mobilized to site. Between 12,000 and 15,000 meters of drilling are planned from now (January 2025) through to April 2025, with 10,000 to 12,000 meters of drilling focusing on resource expansion ambitions, while a further 2,000 to 3,000 meters focused on our ‘target-test' exploration program.
Resource drilling at Rajapalot will predominantly focus on the Palokas, South Palokas and Raja zones of mineralization, whereby resource extensions and ‘step-outs' will follow on from the 2024 drilling seasons results (see Mawson Finland's 2024 drilling summary news release dated November 6,2024), guided by the defined EM conductive bodies identified at depth at Palokas, South Palokas and Raja (as presented in Mawson Finland's news release dated November 19, 2024). Target-test exploration drilling will focus on brownfields targets presently being further developed and defined through BOT geochemical drilling, in conjunction with results from 2024 geophysical surveys (see Mawson Finland's news releases dated November 19, 2024 for DHEM targets, and December 17, 2024 for Ionic Leach soil geochemical anomalies).
A 'base-of-till', or ‘BOT' drilling rig has also been mobilized to Rajapalot and begun drilling shallow holes (typically around 5 - 15 meters depth) through the glacial regolith layers to collect a sample from the bedrock-regolith interface. Such drill-sampling of the bedrock-regolith interface has been successfully used for decades in the Nordics to assist in locating the bedrock source of soil and boulder geochemical anomalies found at surface. These short, vertical drill-holes will be spaced between 10 to 20 meters, and arranged along continuous lines in order to transect and collect samples sitting atop buried bedrock in which both geochemical (Ionic Leach soil results) and geophysical (gradient-array IP and resistivity, and ground magnetic) surface detected anomalies exist undercover. Approximately 500+ BOT holes are planned to be drilled and samples over the coming months at Rajapalot. Any highly-anomalous gold- or cobalt-rich BOT samples will be immediately drill-tested in this season's target-test drilling campaign.
Deposit Model
At Rajapalot, mineralization is regarded as orogenic in nature. All examples of gold-cobalt mineralisation are consistently located within highly-sheared and foliated wall-rocks adjacent to strongly hydrothermally altered, northwest to north dipping shear-zones. Mineralisation is typically encountered as disseminated to semi-massive sulfide lenses (predominantly pyrrhotite and lesser pyrite ± cobaltite), hosted within strongly deformed and altered, mafic volcanic and volcaniclasitic stratigraphy of the upper portions of the Paleoproterozoic-aged Kivalo Group of the Peräpohja Greenstone Belt. Prospects with high-grade gold and cobalt mineralisation at Rajapalot occur across a 3 km (east-west) by 2 km (north-south) area within the larger Rajapalot project area measuring 4 km by 4 km with multiple mineralized boulders, base-of-till (BOT). Gold-Cobalt mineralization at Rajapalot has been drilled to approximately 470 metres below surface at both South Palokas and Raja prospects, and mineralisation remains open at depth across the entire project.
Rajapalot Mineral Resource
An Inferred Mineral Resource ("MRE") has been calculated for the Rajapalot project (effective date August 26, 2021), and is based on an ‘underground only' mining scenario containing 9.8 million tonnes @ 2.8 g/t gold ("Au") and 441 ppm Co, equating to 867 thousand ounces ("koz") gold and 4,311 tonnes of cobalt.
Zone | Cut-off (AuEq¹) | Tonnes (kt) | Au (g/t) | Co (ppm) | Au (koz) | Co (tonnes) |
Palokas | 1.1 | 5,612 | 2.8 | 475 | 501 | 2,664 |
Raja | 1.1 | 2,702 | 3.1 | 385 | 271 | 1,040 |
East Joki | 1.1 | 299 | 4.5 | 363 | 43 | 109 |
Hut | 1.1 | 831 | 1.3 | 428 | 36 | 355 |
Rumajärvi | 1.1 | 336 | 1.4 | 424 | 15 | 142 |
Total Inferred Resources | 9,780 | 2.8 | 441 | 867 | 4,311 |
Rajapalot Inferred Mineral Resource Effective August 26, 2021
