WHY CONICO?

Greenland is known for its mineral wealth and being under-explored, yet there are only two operating mines. Our approach is to make new discoveries by conducting methodical exploration activities over large tracts of land, looking for high-grade, high-tonnage deposits that are required in order to be viable in a remote location. We also focus on the east coast of Greenland due to favourable attributes, these being (1) it faces toward Europe, (2) its proximity to Iceland which provides options for green energy, (3) it is under-explored compared to the south and west coastlines, and (4) it is away from settlements and any mining activity will have minimal impact on society.

Our management team has a combined experience of over 25 years operating in Greenland, all of which is on the east coast. Their skills are in geology and operations, a strong inhouse team that does not need to reply on contractors to achieve objectives.

RYBERG: PROPOSED 2022 ACTIVITIES

The results from the 2021 field season are awaited, however it is anticipated that positive assays will be followed up with additional drilling. The regional magnetic-radiometric survey is also anticipated to generate additional targets warranting drilling.

  • ✓ Fuel has been left on site, allowing for an early start in 2022.

  • ✓ 3 x drill rigs have been left on site.

  • ✓ Options for commencing in April are actively being investigated. This is known to be possible from previous year’s experience.

The Project area is in an area suitable for mining development on the east Greenland coast, the closest point to Iceland (365km).

  • Deep-water fjord , ideal for a port.

  • Airstrip can be extended to accommodate larger aircraft (Dash-8).

  • Site : Adjacent to large flat-lying valley with abundant aggregate material – ideal for a production facility.

  • Fresh Water : available in numerous lakes and rivers

  • Not in a National Park or culturally sensitive area

  • Not close to a settlement

A vessel was used for accommodation for the 2021 field season, anchored within a 15min commute to Ryberg and Cascata.

CONICO 13

MESTERSVIG: HISTORIC MINE

Historic Mining: the mine was called ‘Blyklippen’ (lead rocks in English) and produced a total of 545,000 tonnes of ore @ 9.3% Pb and 9.9% Zn between 1956 and 1962.

The mined-out sulphide lens was 2-10m thick, 300m long and 160 m high. Mining was by open-cut and underground by cut-and-fill method.

The ore was crushed underground and processed via flotation, with recoveries of 95% for lead and 92% zinc. All processing equipment remains stored underground.

The mine was open for 10 months a year , between February and November.

Mineralisation Style: Sediment hosted, fault-controlled epithermal lead-zinc veins, consisting of 65% quartz, 15% sphalerite, 10% galena, 5-10% baryte with trace amounts of pyrite, chalcopyrite and tetrahedrite.

MESTERSVIG: GEOLOGY

==> picture [440 x 584] intentionally omitted <==

Local Geology: dominated by Carboniferous, Permian and Triassic sediments intruded by Palaeogene dolerite sills and dykes

Towards the south, the area is bordered by the Palaeogene Werner Bjerge Complex, in the west, it is bordered by a major regional fault beyond which is the Caledonian fold belt.

Mineralisation Styles:

  • ✓ Vein-hosted lead-zinc-silver-copper sulphides , observed at Blyklippen, Nuldal and Sortebjerg.

  • ✓ Strata-bound lead-zinc-copper-barium sulphides , hosted in conglomerate/carbonate lithologies in the Upper Permian. Observed at Oksedal and Holbergpasset.

  • ✓ Sediment-hosted copper sulphides , reduced-facies copper occurrences within black shales within the Upper Permian.

  • ✓ Base metal sulphides and REE , within the Werner Bjerge Complex.

==> picture [342 x 58] intentionally omitted <==

CONICO 20

MESTERSVIG: WORK CONDUCTED

In 2020 the Company successfully conducted a ground-borne gravity survey to identify the location of veins carrying base metal sulphides that are obscured from surface.

Surface sampling and mapping in 2020 identified mineralisation . at Nuldal grading up to 69.5% lead, 0.91% copper and 282g/t silver

15 historic drill-holes at the Sortebjerg Prospect identified mineralisation near identical to that at Blyklippen, and is aligned along strike. The best drill intersect being 5.17m @ 18.55% Zn+Pb . from 40.0m drilled depth

All historic drill-core from the time of mining is available on site.

The Werner Bjerge Complex is covered by high-resolution . electromagnetic (EM) data that is in the Company’s possession

Three dimensional map of the Mestersvig area.

This has the potential to be a very large mineralised system. The objectives are to assess:

  • ✓ Whether the mineralisation at Sortebjerg joins that at Blyklippen ( therefore a strike length of 13km ).

  • ✓ Whether the mineralisation at Nuldal is continuous and represents a system parallel to Blyklippen.

  • ✓ Whether the strata-bound mineralisation is laterally continuous.

To accomplish these objectives, the proposed activities are:

  • ✓ Import drill rig(s) for testing of the targets.

  • ✓ Further interpret existing geophysics. ✓ Create a 3D model to assist drill targeting.
