Mink Ventures Initiates Diamond Drilling at Warren Property
Event summary
- Diamond drilling commenced at Mink Ventures' Warren Ni-Cu-Co Property in Timmins, Ontario on January 20, 2026.
- Focus on the 'A' Zone, with a MALAM anomaly measuring 500m strike length and 200m width.
- Reinterpretation of mineralized zone geometry suggests a broad, flat-lying higher-grade body.
- Planned shallow vertical holes to test 120m strike length of 'A' Zone mineralization.
- Additional drilling planned for North Zone and D Zone, both showing promising surface samples.
The big picture
Mink Ventures' drilling program at Warren comes as critical mineral demand continues to rise, particularly for nickel, copper, and cobalt in battery and electric vehicle supply chains. The company's strategic positioning near Glencore's former Montcalm Mine highlights its focus on leveraging historical data and modern exploration techniques to uncover new deposits. The success of this program could validate Mink's approach to exploring underexplored areas within established mining camps.
