In this episode, we chat with Peter George, MD for Alicanto Minerals who are an exploration company with a portfolio of historically producing, high-grade Copper-Gold and Polymetallic Skarn and VMS projects located in Sweden.

Peter is a mining engineer and mineral economist with a background in operations and management and more recently in executive management. He talks to us about Alicanto Minerals and their historic Sala project plus what it’s like to mine in Sweden.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Alicanto has been uncovering rich deposits of copper, gold, zinc, silver, lead, and other assets in Sweden.
They are a couple of months out from setting up their maiden resource at Sala.
Gaining access to the historical records revealed 20,000 litres of the historical core.
At 1244 grams per tonne, the historical silver grades were crazy high.
Drilling using the latest technology has revealed assets that were not in the historical data, at Sala.
Security worries, the drive to zero carbon, and low stockpiles are pushing governments to facilitate faster permitting.
Free trade is being replaced by protectionism, which means a will to mine raw materials locally.
Not all areas of Sweden move as quickly as the authorities have done in the Sala area.
To succeed in mining, push yourself to learn new things, put yourself out there, and do as much as you can before you have family responsibilities.


BEST MOMENTS

‘Sweden has its own particular nuances around permitting and timing, but with experience, you can navigate yourself through. ´

‘The stockpiles of copper, zinc, the basics we need for everyday life are down to weeks.’

‘I see massive opportunities for European mining.’
