Arctic Minerals (ARCT) Stora Aktiedagarna 2026 summary

Strategic focus and company transformation

• Shifted focus to copper, gold, silver, and critical metals exploration in the Nordics after a reverse takeover in October 2024, with a new board and management team established in 2025.

• Raised SEK 40 million to recapitalize and prioritized the Hennes Bay copper-silver project as the flagship asset.

• Board and management have extensive international and Nordic mining experience, aiming for significant shareholder returns.

Project portfolio and resource potential

• Hennes Bay project holds 55.4 million tons of high-grade copper-silver ore, with less than 5% drill tested and significant upside potential.

• Additional five deposits along strike could add at least 25 million tons, with drilling to bring these into JORC compliance starting imminently.

• Bidjovagge project in Norway has 3.3 million tons at 0.97% copper and 1.2 g/t gold, with mining permits in place but facing political challenges.

• Swan Lake and Kuusi projects offer greenfields exploration upside, targeting porphyry copper and epithermal gold.

Exploration, development, and technical progress

• Airborne magnetotelluric (MMT) survey at Hennes Bay revealed a target area 10x larger than the current resource, covering only 134 of 414 sq km.

• Drilling applications submitted for 8,000 meters to test new targets; further geophysical work planned for summer.

• Underground conceptual study indicates potential for a 4 million ton per annum mine, with multi-decade production possible.

• Preliminary metallurgical tests show high copper and silver recoveries (up to 90%) and no deleterious elements.
