1.1

Citronen is a sedimentary exhalative (SEDEX) deposit- a potentially very large type of deposit. The mineralisation at Citronen starts from surface, is flat lying and is currently open in almost all directions. The deposit is adjacent to a deep water fjord that may provide near mine ship docking and loading opportunities.
