PERTH (miningweekly.com) – ASX-listed European Cobalt has been awarded a licence for the Rakovec project, in Slovakia, which adjoins the eastern extent of its Dobsina cobalt/nickel/copper project.

The company said on Wednesday that mapping had confirmed the presence of five element veins in the same setting as that of the Dobsina and Rejdova licences, with the project area covering 6.66 km2 of land.

A field based exploration programme is being proposed at the licence area to confirm the extent of the mineralisation historically mapped within the project area, which will run concurrently with the exploration programme at the Rejdova licence.
