RE: Palladium, precious metals on a tear !26 Jan 2022 11:33
@norm, Chalice Mining only has 10Moz of PGM at 1/3 the grade of Munni Munni and they are worth billions.
Plus they have drilled down to 800m where as Munni Munni is only drilled down to 250m and remains open at depth and along strike.
Also the area hasn't been explored with new technology for decades and is massively underexplored.
What is under or around the Cadgerina Dyke, which is interpreted to be the feeder zone of the Munni Munni intrusion?
How much battery metals do we have at the Elizabeth Hill halo (high-grade copper & nickel xrf readings) and other halo areas and around the whole Munni Munni region? PGE tends to have battery metals associated with deposit.
Also can the west now rely on Russia for critical PGMs (which are one of the rarest metals on earth) when they are threatening to sanction them for invading Ukraine?
Also S. Africa experienced instability last summer and is expected to have long strikes this year.
Which other Tier 1 PGM projects the size of Munni Munni have access to infrastructure, power from grid and mining lease in place with no conservation issues?
