Greenland Mines has appointed SLR Consulting as geological consultant and Qualified Person for its Skaergaard project in East Greenland, adding another outside adviser as the company builds a broader technical program around the palladium, gold, platinum, and critical-metals project.
Under the new framework, SLR is expected to support resource-definition work, drill and bulk-sample planning, project database development, mining methods, mine planning, metallurgy, processing flowsheet definition, and mine engineering studies. The agreement also contemplates a return site visit by SLR specialists in late August or early September 2026 as part of Greenland Mines’ planned summer field activities.
The move follows other recent technical appointments around Skaergaard, including GTK Mintec for metallurgical and processing work and WSP for environmental baseline studies. The appointments show Greenland Mines assembling the geology, metallurgy, engineering, and environmental pieces needed before larger project milestones.
Skaergaard remains a resource-stage project. Greenland Mines noted that no preliminary economic assessment, pre-feasibility study, or feasibility study has been completed, and mineral resources have not been converted to mineral reserves. The latest appointment adds technical depth, while the larger tests, economics, permitting, financing, and field execution, sit ahead.
