District Metals continues to build momentum at its Viken Project in Sweden following the release of an independent economic impact study estimating more than US$7.6 billion in regional economic benefits. CEO Garrett Ainsworth discusses what those figures mean for local communities, landowners, and policymakers, while also providing an update on ongoing exploration across the company's broader Alum Shale portfolio.
