ELAD LANDHOLDINGS - KEY PLAYERS
FinEx Metals holds currently a significant land position on the prospective greenstone belt. More exploration & mining companies are turning focus towards ELAD.
Tulppio adjoins the Sokli Mining project, a world-class Phosphate, Fe & REE deposit, operated by Finnish Minerals Group.
Targeting nickel sulphides.
Hosts large (5 x 2 km2) ultramafic Tulppio intrusion.
Gravity survey suggests intrusion extends to 2 km depth.
Historic shallow drilling (<100 m) encountered:
- 3m @ 1.12 g/t Pt+Pd, 0.49% Ni (1.5 m @ 1.54 g/t Pt+Pd).
- 24m @ 3338 ppm Ni & 1500 ppm S. Highest Ni (5330 ppm) with 4600 ppm S.
Ionic Leach soil sampling survey identified multiple significant Ni-Co-Cu-Pd-Au anomalies. All surveyed soil sampling lines end in anomalies, open in multiple direction.
“Tulppio’s Ni-PGE potential is significant, and it should be taken into account in the design of the Sokli mine.”

Archean Granite-Greenstone Belt terrain prospective for magmatic nickel sulphides (Kambalda and Mt. Keith – types) and gold.
Extensive sequences of Archean komatiitic flows – mostly not drill tested. Tulppio ultramafic intrusion estimated to be 2 km deep.
