Critical mineral development from proven ground.

Our lead project is the historical Yxsjöberg tungsten mine in Bergslagen, Sweden, which produced metal for 70 years. We are investigating whether reprocessing its surface tailings could fund the redevelopment of the mine.

Why tungsten

Tungsten is a strategic metal in tight supply

  1. Europe put tungsten on its short list.

    The EU classifies tungsten as both a Critical and a Strategic Raw Material.

  2. Sweden treats it as national security.

    In July 2026, Sweden declared the mining of critical metals a national security interest.

  3. Supply is concentrated outside the West.

    Most tungsten is produced outside the West, and China has placed export controls on it.

Featured project

Our lead project: Bergslagen, Sweden

The Yxsjöberg tungsten mine produced metal from 1918 until it closed in 1989, leaving surface tailings and a large historical record. Our plan has two stages: first, drill and sample the surface tailings to establish what they contain; then, extend the work to the shallow hard rock near the mine.

Where we are now

Preparing to drill the tailings

We have engaged GeoPool, a Nordic geological consultancy, to bring the historical drilling, mine plans and sampling at Yxsjöberg into one modern 3D model, and we are obtaining the permits for a systematic drilling and sampling programme on the surface tailings, with the intention of starting before the end of 2026.

Our approach

We work from historic data, not from scratch

Our approach is consistent: take historic and regional data, re-analyse it, and re-assess ground that was passed over. Bergslagen is that approach in action. Everything else we hold is the same idea at an earlier stage.

Portfolio

Bergslagen leads a wider portfolio

The projects below are held on the same thesis, at an earlier stage, and we weight them accordingly.
