Viking Mines Uncovers Massive Tungsten Deposit in Nevada

0:00Viking mines has uncovered a much larger tungsten-bearing intrusive system at its linka project in Nevada thanks to an expanded geophysical survey. The high-resolution ground magnetics revealed an intrusion about 2 km wide with a key mineralization contact zone stretching more than 7 km. This sets up a stronger drilling campaign in the June quarter. The survey aimed to map the intrusion's boundaries beyond known surface finds right where meets the surrounding limestone rocks. Historical mining and drilling already confirmed tungsten on the eastern flank but only about 11% of that contact shows at the surface. Company leaders are thrilled with managing director Julian Woodcott calling the potential across the remaining 89% of the zone. Amintz. With tungsten prices hitting around $2,650 per metric ton unit, this Nevada play lands at a critical time for U.S. Minerals. New data also spotted a southern extension under volcanic cover,

Viking is now locking in drill targets while advancing processing studies and environmental baselines to speed permitting. If the upcoming holes hit, it could unlock serious discovery potential in this hot commodity market. That's your update from Sydney News Today, powered by AI. I'm Corey with The Story.
