District Metals CEO Garrett Ainsworth joins Mining Stock Daily to discuss the latest exploration work across the company’s Swedish alum shale portfolio, where drilling successfully intersected graphitic black shale in 15 of 15 holes testing MobileMT geophysical targets. Ainsworth explains why those results increase confidence in upcoming drilling at the Viken deposit, where District is preparing a 2,000–3,000 metre program targeting potential uranium, vanadium and potash mineralization. The conversation also covers Sweden’s closely contested federal election, the uncertainty around forming a new government, and what the political landscape could mean for uranium mining and resource development.
