About 80 Mile Plc:
80 Mile Plc, listed on the London AIM market, Frankfurt Stock Exchange, and
the U.S. Pink Market, is an exploration and development company focused on
high-grade critical metals in Tier 1 jurisdictions. With a diversified
portfolio in Greenland and Finland, 80 Mile's strategy is centred on
advancing key projects while creating value through partnerships and strategic
acquisitions.
The Disko-Nuussuaq nickel-copper-cobalt-PGE project in Greenland is a
primary focus for 80 Mile, developed in partnership with KoBold Metals. 80
Mile, through its wholly owned subsidiary Disko Exploration Ltd., has a
definitive Joint Venture Agreement with KoBold Metals to guide and fund
exploration efforts. The JV has completed intensive analysis and
interpretation of the extensive geochemical, geophysical, and geological data
collected during the previous exploration campaigns. Leveraging KoBold's
proprietary artificial intelligence and machine learning platforms, this
comprehensive analysis has resulted in the identification of seven initial
priority targets within the project area. These seven priority targets exhibit
spatial characteristics indicative of potential deposits on a scale comparable
to renowned mining operations such as Norilsk, Voisey's Bay, and Jinchuan. The
JV is now planning a focused ground-loop electromagnetic survey to refine and
prioritise each locality appropriately.
In Finland, 80 Mile currently holds three large scale multi-metal projects
through its wholly owned subsidiary FinnAust Mining Finland Oy. 80
Mile's Finland portfolio includes the Outokumpu project, where the discovery
of industrial gases like helium and hydrogen adds significant economic
potential to the already prospective copper-nickel-cobalt-zinc-gold-silver
targets. 80 Mile is conducting further exploration to fully assess these
resources.
80 Mile's recent acquisition of White Flame Energy expands its portfolio into
the energy sector, adding large-scale licenses for industrial gas, natural
gas, and liquid hydrocarbons in East Greenland. Approved by shareholders
in July 2024, this acquisition diversifies the Company's assets and aligns
with its strategy to contribute to sustainable energy solutions, while also
exploring conventional energy resources.
The Dundas Ilmenite Project, 80 Mile's most advanced asset in
northwest Greenland, is fully permitted and progressing towards near-term
production. With a JORC-compliant Mineral Resource of 117 Mt at 6.1%
ilmenite and an offshore Exploration Target of up to 530 Mt, Dundas is poised
to become a major supplier of high-quality ilmenite. Recent discoveries of
hard rock titanium mineralization, with bedrock samples showing nearly double
the ilmenite content of previous estimates, further enhance the project's
world-class potential. 80 Mile owns 100% of the Dundas Ilmenite
Project under its subsidiary Dundas Titanium A/S in Greenland.
The Thule Copper Project is a significant component of 80 Mile's portfolio in
northwest Greenland, focused on exploring and developing high-grade copper
deposits within the Thule Basin in northwest Greenland. Leveraging existing
infrastructure and exploration credits, the project is strategically
positioned in an underexplored region with substantial mineral potential. 80
Mile's established basecamp at Moriusaq will support cost-effective
exploration, aligning with the Company's broader strategy to secure
high-quality copper and industrial gas projects.
