Alien Metals Ltd update the market on the Scoping Study stating it delivers a compelling development case for the Hancock Iron Ore Project in Australia.
Today we have Bill Brodie Good, CEO & Technical Director of Alien on the Share Talk platform updating shareholders on current news and what investors can expect in the short term.
Bill Brodie Good, CEO & Technical Director of Alien Metals, commented:
“We could not be more pleased with progress on the Hancock Iron Ore Project to date. Having delivered a meaningful resource so quickly, and to follow up with a very compelling mine development scenario from the independent Scoping Study, we are now working aggressively in the development, mining and permitting arena to keep the momentum up and get this project into production within a very short timeframe.
“We are really fortunate to have Lloyd Edmunds join the team and retain Mining Plus for the development phase. With Lloyd’s background in project delivery at Australia’s number 3 iron ore miner, Fortescue Metals Group (“FMG”), he is a key appointment for Alien Metals.”
Notes to Editors
Alien Metals Ltd is a mining exploration and development company listed on AIM of the London Stock Exchange (LSE: UFO). The Company’s focus is on precious and base metal commodities, with its operations located in proven mining jurisdictions and it has embarked upon an acquisition-led strategy headed by a high-quality geological team to build a strong portfolio of diversified assets.
In 2019, the company acquired 51% of the Brockman and Hancock Ranges high-grade (Direct Shipping Ore) iron ore projects and has recently entered into a conditional agreement to increase its interest to 90%. In 2020 the company acquired 100% of the Elizabeth Hill Silver Project, which consists of the Elizabeth Hill Historic Silver Mine Mining Lease and the surrounding Munni Munni North Exploration Tenement. The Australian projects are located in the world-renowned Pilbara region of Western Australia.
The Company also holds two silver projects, San Celso and Los Campos, located in Zacatecas State, Mexico’s largest silver producing state, which produced over 190m Oz of silver in 2018 alone, accounting for 45% of the total silver production of Mexico for that year. The Company holds a Copper Gold project in the same region, Donovan 2.
The company was also awarded an Exploration Licence in Greenland in late 2020, which surrounds the world class Citronen Zinc-Lead deposit.
In addition to progressing and developing its portfolio of assets and following its strategic review of its portfolio of silver and precious metals projects, Alien Metals has identified priority exploration targets within all of its projects which it is working to advance systematically.
