Pursuing aggressive exploration campaigns in Sweden’s highly regarded Bergslagen Region
Alicanto Minerals is focused on two highly prospective projects: the Falun Copper-Gold project and the Sala Zinc-Silver project. Both projects have a long history of high-grade production but have been the subject of very limited exploration in recent times.
Over their operating lives Falun produced in the order of 28mt @ 4% copper, 4g/t gold, 5% zinc, 2% lead and 35g/t silver while Sala produced approximately 200Mozs of silver at an average grade of 1,244g/t.
