Eurobattery Minerals AB (NGM; “BAT”), a growth company in the mining and exploration industry with the vision to help Europe become self-sufficient in ethical battery minerals, today announced an update on its explorations projects in Sweden. Similar to the project the company runs in Castriz in northern Spain where the results from the drilling campaign will be announced later in Q4, the focus for the Swedish projects is nickel, cobalt and copper, including also rare earth elements (REE), minerals that are all critical raw materials for the electric vehicle market in Europe.

I am happy to announce the outcome of this year’s field work in our projects across the northern parts of Sweden, said Roberto García Martínez, CEO of Eurobattery Minerals. Even if it is clear that we need to conduct further analysis and more field work in 2020, the results are encouraging.

In total, Eurobattery Minerals have 7 explorations permits in the northern parts of Sweden and all have recently been further investigated by geologists. In the field work, new samples have been taken for petrographic and chemical analysis and previously found and analyzed bouldes and outcrops have been investigated further.

Following this update, the material will be further evaluated in the coming months and form the basis for next year’s exploration work.

Below is an update project by project.

SÖRTJÄRN and BRÄNNKAMMEN

In the company’s permit areas Sörtjärn and Brännkammen in Västerbotten, a total of about 30 new rock samples have been collected for chemical analysis.

In addition to high gold levels (6-15 ppm Au in some boulders), new analyses at Brännkammen also shown elevated levels of nickel and cobalt.

Brännkammen is located in an area where previously conducted studies show elevated nickel and copper levels according ore maps from the Geological Survey of Sweden. In the coming field season in 2020, further investigations and samplings are planned to determine the area’s ore potential, especially regarding nickel and cobalt.

FETSJÖN and RÖNNBERGET

The bedrock within the exploration permits Fetsjön and Rönnberget both consist of shales rich in many metals, e.g. rare earth elements (REE), molybdenum and vanadium.

Compilations and evaluations of 52 boreholes in Fetsjön and 4 boreholes in Rönnberger have been carried out and a detailed analysis and description of the geological and metallogenic conditions can be found on the Eurobattery Minerals website.  The mineralogical composition of the deposits and determinations of the graphite content of the shales have recently been investigated with electron microscope.

PAHTAVAARA and PIETARASJÄRVI

In Norrbotten, the two exploration permits Pahtavaara and Pietarasjärvi east of Kiruna have been surveyed to assess previously performed analyses, collecting new samples and planning upcoming exploration efforts.

At Pahtavaara no further mineralized boulders or rock outcrops could be found and the area needs to be investigated more carefully with excavations and geophysical measurements.

At Pietarasjärvi, several boulders were examined and some additional, slightly mineralized boulders were found. An outcrop with copper mineralization, just outside the permit area was investigated. Information from the outcrop, from boulders, maps and previous investigations in the area indicate that the exploration permit should be extended to the north and northeast.

BRUKSBERGET

In the survey area Bruksberget in Västernorrland, detailed magnetic measurements have been carried out. The results from the measurements will be carefully evaluated in a near future.

Eurobattery Minerals AB (NGM; “BAT”); a growth company in the mining and exploration industry with the vision to help Europe become self-sufficient in ethical battery minerals, today announced the start of the drilling campaign in its Spanish ‘Corcel project’ in northwest Spain. ‘Corcel’ is located at Castriz, approximately 50 km southwest of the regional centre of La Coruña, Galicia. Leading Spanish drilling contractor Geonor Sondeos y Perforaciones S.L “Geonor” has been awarded the contract and drilling starts today. The company has recently finalized a comprehensive analysis of the deposit in the Corcel finding and concluded that there are large deposits of nickel in the ground as well as cobalt and copper. Eurobattery Minerals are now launching the next step when drilling commence today.

– Europe’s big automotive industry has a great need for sustainably produced batteries. Something that the EU Commission has also identified as an important strategic goal for the region in order to be climate neutral. Achieving this requires sustainable and ethical mined battery minerals. Through the drilling we are now launching and we are taking an important step in providing Europe with ethical battery minerals,” says Roberto García Martínez, CEO of Eurobattery Minerals.

Drilling at Corcel will be an important milestone for Eurobattery Minerals, no modern exploration method have been applied there since the 1980’s. The company is expecting to complete the drilling campaign during Q4 2019 and after this announce the final results of the campaign.

Following an analysis of the historical data, Eurobattery Minerals defined a near-surface exploration target in the range of 75Mt to 100Mt @ 0.4% Nickel (Ni), 0.02% Cobalt (Co) and 0.2% Copper (Cu). After its own exploration activities, (with up to 0.66% Ni was recorded), which defined a number of anomalies of larger scale than the historical exploration recognised, Eurobattery Minerals is reassessing this exploration target with the view of significantly increasing it.

– The mineralisation already identified at Corcel is shallow, and would therefore be amenable to low cost with open cut mining methods which would make the economics strong for any potential mine developments, in which >0.15% Ni is a typical economic cut-off for open cut nickel deposits, said Roberto García Martínez.

Spanish drilling contractor Geonor will conduct the drilling. The company, founded in 2001, is dedicated to provide services in the fields of civil engineering, construction and mining. They are specialists in conducting mineral and geotechnical drilling, as well as in technical assistance in these fields, having worked for a number of international exploration and mining companies and is one of the leading drilling contractors in Spain.

– I am looking forward to work in close collaboration with Geonor in the drilling campaign and ultimately to get the final results later in Q4, Roberto García Martínez concludes.

Key Points

• Geochemical and geophysical program completed at Castriz prospect
• The Company’s results are also significantly better than the historical soil sampling at Castriz
• Outstanding nickel-in-soil assay results confirm prospectivity of Castriz, with up to 0.66% Ni recorded (historical were a maximum value of 0.3% Ni); more than 146 samples returned assays >0.15% Ni which is a typical economic cut-off for open cut nickel deposits
• Nickel anomalies are coincident with elevated copper concentrations (up to 0.2% Cu)
• Cobalt results were better than historical data indicated
• Geochemical anomalies associated with elevated magnetic responses in the underlying bedrock interpreted to be caused by fluid alteration processes

CORCEL NICKEL-COBALT-COPPER PROJECT UPDATE SUMARY

Eurobattery Minerals AB (Nordic Growth Market: “BAT”; “the Company”) is pleased to issue an update on its exploration for nickel, cobalt and copper at its Corcel Project in Galicia, northern Spain. The company commenced field activities at the Castriz prospect in July 2019 and has recently received the final results and interpretations from its field work program. Field activities included geological mapping, soil sampling and ground-based magnetic and ground penetrating radar (GPR) geophysical surveys. The attached report contains the full descriptions of the results from the exploration work program.

– I am pleased to announce the good results from the geochemical and geophysical program from the Castriz prospect in Spain, said Roberto Garcia Martinez, CEO of Eurobattery Minerals. The amount of nickel and cobalt in the ground is much higher than historical soil sampling, and as such the results supports the company’s view that Castriz has an outstanding potential to provide the European battery market with key minerals.

Field activities have realised the identification of several large zones, up to 1km in strike, with anomalous nickel (Ni) geochemistry that are coincident with increased magnetic signatures in the underlying bedrock. These zones are interpreted to have developed as a response to hydrothermal alteration processes that have potentially remobilised sulphide minerals and deposited them in favourable structural locations as evidenced by the geophysics.

Ore grade nickel-in-soil anomalies up to 0.66% Ni have been detected at Castriz. Fifty-two (52) samples returned assays greater than 0.2% Ni and 146 samples returned assays >0.15% Ni. A typical economic cut- off grade for shallow mineralisation that is amenable to open cut mining is 0.15% Ni. The Company’s results are also significantly better than the historical soil sampling at Castriz which returned a maximum value of 0.3% Ni. Anomalous levels of copper (up to 0.2% Cu) and cobalt (up to 0.08% Co) have also been detected with the copper anomalies being coincident with nickel anomalies. The magnitude of the anomalies is encouraging given soil profiles are usually depleted with respect to the fresh rock underneath. Therefore, there is an anticipation of higher grades at depth.

The nature of the geochemical and geophysical anomalies and the size of the anomalies supports the Company’s view that Castriz is a very high-quality prospect with outstanding potential to host a large nickel deposit. Coincident Ni-Co-Cu anomalies are often associated with sulphide mineral accumulations (pentlandite and chalcopyrite) which are minerals that are highly sought after in the battery and electric vehicle markets. Consequently, the Company believes the project warrants further exploration and will proceed with drill testing the most attractive target in the current quarter. Eurobattery Minerals looks forward to providing updates to the market in the coming weeks once drilling commences.

Stockholm: Orezone AB changes its name to Eurobattery Minerals AB. The name change that was registered at the Swedish Companies Registration Office on 28 June 2019 is part of the company’s commitment to extracting critical battery minerals such as cobalt, copper and nickel from its own assets in Europe.

        Our new name describes our plans very well. When production starts – and it is very soon – the goal is to be able to supply Europe’s battery manufacturers with “green minerals” from Europe, says CEO Roberto García. 

Eurobattery Minerals AB – formerly known as Orezone AB – is a Swedish exploration company that is focused on acquiring and developing assets within battery metals located in Sweden and Europe. This includes, among other things, copper, cobalt and nickel – metals that are used to manufacture batteries, and which are absolutely crucial for society’s electrification.

        With current projects, we are very well positioned in relation to the global raw material cycle and the rapid development that takes place in electric vehicles and battery technology, says Roberto García, CEO of Eurobattery Minerals AB.

The company has several exploration licenses with potentially hazardous base metals in Northern Sweden, but this should be seen in a longer perspective, explains the CEO. Right now, the eyes are turning towards Europe where the company acquired a cobalt-copper-nickel project.

        Our projects are in different stages of development. As for the project in Spain, we have come a long way. We are soon ready to start drilling. A significant part of the geological work has been completed and the results look promising, Roberto says.

If everything goes as planned, production can be operational in mid term. This would also mean that Europe’s self-sufficiency of critical battery metals is increasing a little bit.

        Apart from the fact that there is a large shortage of minerals with rising prices on the world market, there are also political risks. The majority of all cobalt comes from mines in Congo, a country affected by civil war, which can compromise delivery capability, says Roberto García. 

As of 15 July 2019, the share is traded under the name Eurobattery Minerals AB and the symbol on NGM Nordic MTF is BAT.
