ABOUT AVIRA

Avira is a mineral exploration company with a focus on base and battery metals. It is currently developing the Puolalaki Project in Sweden and the Paterson Range Project in Western Australia.

The Puolalaki Project currently comprises a single exploration permit (Puolalaki nr 100) centred over a syn-orogenic gabbro intrusion that hosts the nickel mineralisation discovered by NAN in 1998[1] . In addition to the Ni-Cu-Co mineralisation at Puolalaki, the project also contains significant, high-grade gold mineralisation across two zones within the metasediments and metavolcanics surrounding the gabbro. The Puolalaki Project is located in Sweden’s premier Gällivare mining district which is host to Europe’s largest open-cut copper mine Aitik, owned by Boliden and to LKAB’s Malmberget iron-ore mine.

The Paterson Range Project in Western Australia comprises two tenement packages within the Paterson Range province, host to a number of substantial gold, copper and manganese mines and deposits including the Telfer gold-copper mine, Woody Woody manganese and Nifty copper mines.
