Bluejay Mining plc ('Bluejay' or the 'Company'), the AIM, FSE listed and Pink-Market traded exploration and development company with projects in Greenland and Finland, is pleased to provide an update on the Company's 100% owned Dundas Ilmenite Project ('Dundas' or the 'Project') located in North-West Greenland.
Following an in depth assessment of deficiencies in the 2022 work programs at Dundas, alongside consultations with various independent consultants, the Company has determined that there is sufficient evidence to warrant the reinstatement of the 2019 Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) at the Dundas Ilmenite Project. After joining the Company in late December 2023, significant concerns were raised by the new management team regarding the accuracy and representativeness of the 2023 MRE. This decision to reinstate the 2019 MRE reflects the Company's well-informed position that the downgrade in the 2023 MRE was the result of multiple factors, including the use of unsuitable drilling methods, and questionable decision-making.
Bluejay reaffirms its commitment to transparency and integrity with its shareholders and will continue to prioritize clear communication, accountability and ethical conduct. The Company is also considering its legal options concerning individuals involved in the 2023 resource estimation process, including former members of management.
