Rodburn Project
Peak Nickel Ltd is a privately owned, UK-registered company with exclusive 100% exploration and 100-year mining rights over the Rodburn Project, an emerging, potentially high-grade Nickel-Copper-Cobalt district in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The project was previously explored by a Rio Tinto/Goldfields Joint Venture (EVL) in the 1970s, but EVL was unable to secure the necessary mineral rights.
In 2023, Peak Nickel became the first company to secure the required exploration and critical mineral rights and to drill the project for the first time in 50 years. Drilling results have returned the highest-grade Ni-Cu-Co intercepts ever recorded in the British Isles. Additionally, Peak Nickel has defined a new Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) with shallow, open mineralization along strike and depth. The deepest drill hole to date is less than 200 meters deep.
In total, Peak Nickel has drill-tested a 300m strike section of a 3,000m geophysical/geochemical anomaly. Recent drilling confirms the potential to rapidly increase the MRE, with massive and semi-massive sulphides discovered in 2024 step-out drillholes.
Importantly, the Rodburn site is classified by the local council as a safeguarded mineral resource, meaning that local planning policy does not typically allow other forms of development aside from mining.
