Munka


The 8 square kilometre Munka deposit, confirmed by historic drilling, extends over 800m in length with parallel mineralised lenses of varying width in excess of 20m. Between 1973 and 1977, a total of 67 holes were drilled in the area for approximately 10,000 metres. Based on these historic drilling results, the Geological Survey of Sweden (SGU) estimated resources up to 100m depth to be 1.7 million tonnes at 0.156% molybdenum (Mo). This historic estimate does not comply with current JORC or 43-101 international standards. At the estimated tonnage, the Munka deposit is the largest molybdenum deposit in Sweden with the available data indicating that the deposit may be significantly larger.


Beowulf has reviewed all of the available data on the Munka deposit registered at the SGU’s offices at Malå, parts of which have not previously been reviewed.  All drill cores presently stored at the SGU’s offices are being rechecked with the analysis subject to Beowulf’s control.  

With additional control studies in the field and some further limited drilling, Beowulf anticipates being able to rapidly achieve a JORC compliant resource estimate.
