[{"type":"text","content":"Exploration Update and New Tenements GrantedVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 9, 2021 / Norrland Gold Corporation (\"Norrland\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV:NORR)(Frankfurt:8VC) is pleased to provide an update on itsnewexploration activities in Sweden:OUR APPROACH:Norrland is applying its low-cost geochemical exploration approach to Sweden, one of Europe's most prominent mining countries, with most of its deposits hidden under deep moraine cover, leaving a great potential for discovery. The 4 million oz historical Boliden gold mine and the current +1 million oz Barsele gold project of Agnico-Eagle are examples of known deposits in the same geological terrain and region in which the Company is working.Norrland holds the Vittanträsket gold prospect, covering the most substantial geochemical gold in moraine anomaly in Sweden.Norrland has expanded its land holding in Sweden with the grant of two more tenements: The Pingisvaara tenement covering a strong gold in moraine anomaly at the northern border with Finland, and the Junsele tenement, covering a layered mafic-ultramafic intrusion with the highest platinum rock-chip assay ever reported anywhere in Sweden during earlier work by state geologists.OUR PROSPECTS:Vittanträsket:At the Vittanträsket gold prospect in the \"Gold-line\" in Västerbotten province, Geovista (the Company's geophysical contractor, www.geovista.se) has completed the first ground geophysical program, which has outlined a number of anomalies, suggesting mineralized fracture zones.The geophysical work for further defining drill targets will continue along strike during the winter season, for drilling early next year.The Vittanträsket tenement, covering 3,741 hectars, is valid until December 20, 2023, and can thereafter be renewed.Figure 1. The location of Vittanträsket along the trend of known gold-deposits in the Gold-linePingisvaara:The Pingisvaara tenement, covering 900 ha within Kiruna Municipality, Northern Sweden, is valid until March 10, 2024, and can thereafter be renewed (Swedish exploration permits are valid for three years at a time).Pingisvaara covers a strong geochemical gold anomaly. The only earlier work in this largely unknown part of Sweden is by the Geological Survey of Sweden, which has carried out recoinnasance geochemical work and airborne geophysical surveys. Inte...
