Scout drilling commences at the high-impact Minturn project, Northwest Greenland

1 hour ago 5

Article content

The results will be integrated with the 2025 surface sampling and historic airborne geophysical data to refine the geological model, assess the scale of the system and design future ground geophysics and follow-up drilling. Amaroq remains committed to Minturn’s potential scale and strategic importance and will use this programme to build the practical operating knowledge required for sustained exploration in North Greenland, drawing on the experience and infrastructure established through its operations in South Greenland.

About the Minturn project

Article content

Minturn is located in the Inglefield Land region of Northwest Greenland, approximately 220km north of the US Pituffik Space Base. The prospect is interpreted as a potentially large iron oxide copper gold (“IOCG”) or Kiruna-style mineral system and is held within Amaroq’s strategic joint venture company, Gardaq A/S.

Article content

Reprocessing and reinterpretation of historic geophysical datasets identified a coherent approximately 9km magnetic anomaly within a broader 80km mineralised corridor. Reconnaissance work completed in 2025 returned surface iron grades of up to 69.5% Fe, including multiple samples grading 66-69% Fe. A parallel electromagnetic anomaly and associated ionic-leach geochemistry provide targets for potential copper-gold mineralisation. The programme now commencing will be the first drilling to test these interpretations at depth.

About Amaroq
Amaroq’s focus is the identification, acquisition, exploration and development of gold and strategic metals in Greenland. The Company’s principal asset is the 100% owned and operated, producing Nalunaq Gold Mine.

Article content

Article content

Amaroq’s significant exploration portfolio includes opportunities in gold, copper, nickel and rare earth elements across South Greenland, as well as zinc, lead, silver, germanium and gallium at its West Greenland Hub centred on the past-producing zinc-lead-silver mine at Maarmorilik and the nearby Kangerluarsuk exploration licence, and the Minturn iron oxide copper gold prospect in Northwest Greenland. The Company’s strategy is to unlock Greenland’s resource potential through continued exploration and development while building a responsible, full-cycle mining company, including through its Suliaq subsidiary, which provides mining services and logistics capabilities for Greenland’s developing mining sector, and Imeq ApS, Greenland’s first private hydroelectric project.
