Sweden has a rich history of mining. With vast amounts of data from state exploration activities available to us, I don’t see a more substantial geochemical gold anomaly that is present anywhere in Sweden than that which is in Vittanträsket.

MINING IN
SWEDEN
- Sweden is one of the largest gold producers and the biggest iron ore producer of the European Union.
- Well established mining framework. Agnico Eagle, Mandalay Resources and Dragon Mining are exploring and mining in Sweden.
- Mining friendly jurisdiction. Exploration Permits easily renewed. Low occupation fees. Nominal royalties (0.05%).
- Geological, geophysical, and geochemical data available from the Geological Survey of Sweden.

Norrland Gold active only in the proven gold mining district of the Gold Line – Skellefte district, well known for orogenic gold deposits and gold bearing massive sulfide deposits. The prime example being the mined-out deposit at Boliden, which held approximately 8 million tons @ approximately 15 g/t gold.
The Swedish terrain is covered by moraine. Most of the gold mining district has only been explored by reconnaissance methods. Sweden could well be regarded as under-explored.
Norrland Gold is applying new techniques to the very well-established geochemical sampling to get information from under the moraine overburden.
