The KE Report FinEx Metals - Exploring For Orogenic Gold in Finland’s Central Lapland Greenstone Belt: 5 Projects, Drilling Now
In this interview, we introduce Tero Kosonen, Chairman & CEO of FinEx Metals (TSX.V:FINX), a newly listed exploration company with five projects in northern Finland, highlighted by the Ruoppa Project. FinEx is part of the NewQuest group, known for backing discovery‑driven exploration companies like Headwater Gold and Inflection Resources.
Key discussion points:
- Strategic land position: Ruoppa lies just 17 km from Agnico Eagle’s Kittilä Mine and near Rupert Resources’ high‑grade Ikkari discovery.
- Exploration progress: Four years of groundwork including geophysics, trenching (highlight grab sample of 95.1 g/t Au), and top‑of‑bedrock drilling.
- Upcoming catalysts: A fully permitted maiden drill program starting in days (12-14 holes, ~2,500m) with results expected by mid‑September to early October.
- Strong team & infrastructure: Led by experienced Finnish geologists with excellent government relationships and support, operating in a region with roads, power, and year‑round access.
- Portfolio beyond gold: Additional permitted projects include nickel‑PGM‑cobalt targets in eastern Lapland with potential for partnerships.
FinEx is well‑funded (~C$4M treasury) and positioned in one of the world’s most prospective yet underexplored belts. Investors are watching closely for early drill results that could signal a new discovery.
