The application permit process for both projects were prepared by those contractors with supervision of Paulo Caessa, VP Exploration, and were submitted to Direktoratet for Mineralforvaltning ("Dirmin") according to the Norwegian Minerals Act – section 18, previous to the start of the field work. Discussions with local authorities and stakeholders, to inform them of the Company's exploration plans are progressing successfully.
Norra's technical team has completed a significant amount of work to prepare both projects for a Phase I exploration program. To date, the Company has completed a comprehensive review of available historic data for the Bleikvassli and Meråker properties and outlined the first phase of exploration program.
The exploration program permits request submitted to Dirmin were based on the high-priority targets selection referred to in news releases of
- Conduct a diamond drill hole campaign to test the down dip extension of Bleikvassli mine;
- Geophysical surveys over Brunnesbeken mineralization, Bleikvassli mine south extension, Kongsfjellet and Rapliasen targets;
- Soil sampling over Bleikvassli South, Rapliasen and Kjokkenbukta areas. Rock and channel sampling.
