RE:CM mapping initiative update American Geoscience Inst. 2022Some interesting takeaways from Louise's recent IOCG critical metals presentation on page 6. On behalf of the Geological Survey of Canada, she definitely provides great visibility for the NICO deposit and advocates its merits.
Bismuth reserves relative to global reserves and the vast size of the NICO deposit, with reference to source document (
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0169136822000300, section 6.3).
Cobalt resources relative to global resources and the statement that NICO is a primary cobalt resource (along with Blackbird). Cobalt concentrations at NICO are shown to be much higher than at Olympic Dam.
Gold reserves at NICO relative to Blackbird's resources; NICO holds atleast twice the amount of gold.
