The Resource – Gronne Bjerg
Anorthosite is a unique calcium-rich feldspar comprised of Silicon (50%), aluminum (31%) and calcium (15%). AnorTech’s 100% owned Gronne Bjerg (Green Mountain) anorthosite project in Greenland is located approximately 80 km from the capital city of Nuuk on open tidewater. The project is adjacent to some of the best hydroelectric potential in Greenland.
AnorTech initially sampled the Gronne Bjerg project in 2012 as part of a reconnaissance program of all the major anorthosites in Greenland. Gronne Bjerg was easily the best anorthosite project assessed by the Company being a massive body of anorthosite measuring over four square kilometers in size with 1,200 meters vertical exposure of anorthosite. The government excluded this area for staking until 2021 at which time AnorTech applied for and was granted an exploration license.
In 2022 and 2023 AnorTech undertook surface sampling programs at Gronne Bjerg collecting over 4 tonnes of anorthosite from outcrop across a wide area and over 1,200 meter elevation. Assays were exceptional and demonstrated a high level of consistency with an average aluminum content of 32%.
In the summer of 2024, AnorTech blasted a 20 tonne anorthosite sample which was shipped to Canada to be used for ongoing R&D work on the production of a sustainable smelter grade alumina product.
