- Results from metallurgical test program expected during Q3
Nordic Resources (ASX:NNL) continues to expand its Kopsa gold-copper project in Finland with positive new drilling results. The upside has been identified through further mineralised extensions drilled in the northern zone, while geophysical interpretation of electromagnetic (EM) anomalies around the new northern high-grade zone suggest potential at depth.

MD, Robert Wrixon, said results received from the latest three holes, totalling 559m of diamond core from its northern hemisphere spring 2026 drill program, have provided additional confidence.
These holes, located in the northern zone at Kopsa, returned highlights such as 55m at 0.47 grams per tonne (g/t) gold, 0.18% copper and 2.0 g/t silver from 291m, including 4.5m at 2.50 g/t gold, 0.19% copper and 5.0 g/t from 340m.
All three holes tested the northern contact of the host tonalite intrusive unit and were drilled into gaps in the current resource block model. All holes reported good continuity with previously drilled mineralisation and have extended the mineralised zone between 30-100m beyond the existing resource boundary.
The most significant mineralised extensions were reported in the hole NRKOP25005 extension which intersected a wide mineralised lode commencing over 100m beyond the nearest part of the existing block model.
“Kopsa drilling continues to reveal additional mineralisation in the northern zone and along the northern contact of the host intrusion. The EM results provide an indication of potential continuity of the higher- grade zone at depth and this will be tested later this year,” Mr Wrixon said.
“These three northern holes are the third batch of results from the spring 2026 drill program at Kopsa. A final three holes were drilled at Kopsa to test further strike and depth extensions in the southwestern zone, before the drilling concluded at the end of May.”
Kopsa currently hosts a near-surface JORC (2012) compliant resource of 23.2 million tonnes (Mt) at 1.09 g/t gold equivalent (AuEq) for 814,800 ounces AuEq.
NNL is steady at 18¢. Mkt cap of $67.68.
