What's Happening?
Viridian Metals Inc. has commenced drilling at the Main Zone of its Kraken Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project in Labrador. The 2025 drilling program includes 30-50 diamond drill holes targeting mineralization near the surface. This initiative builds on the previous year's campaign, which yielded significant copper intercepts. The current focus is on advancing resource definition and testing modeled conductors for higher-grade mineralization. The drilling is conducted using low-impact mini-drill rigs to minimize surface disturbance and reduce costs. Tyrell Sutherland, President & CEO, highlighted the program's aim to responsibly advance the Kraken project.
