Norge Mining Advances Critical Minerals Supply with Eigersund Project Pre-Feasibility Study Completion
Mining Innovations Drive Norway's Strategic Minerals
Norge Mining, a prominent player in mineral exploration, has successfully completed its Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) for the Eigersund Project in southwest Norway. The study supports the extraction of essential critical minerals like phosphate, titanium, vanadium, and ferro magnetite.
Significant Milestone Achieved in Critical Minerals Supply
This project is recognized by the Norwegian Government as a fast-tracked initiative, underlining its importance for Europe’s strategic mineral needs. The PFS indicates a net present value (NPV) of US$2.01 billion for the Eigersund Project, paving the way for a sustainable supply of vital resources.
- The project is designed to grant Europe self-reliance in critical material supplies.
- About 20 million tons per annum (tpa) are expected from the first zone within 23 years.
- Environmental and social sustainability remains a priority throughout the project's development.
Future Growth and Opportunities in Mining Sector
The Eigersund Project covers just 5% of the exploration area yet holds a total of 3.2 billion tons of resources. As the initiative develops, it presents an opportunity for integration within Europe’s mining landscape, helping to diminish reliance on external sources.
