Viking Mines says ore-sorting trials at its Nevada-based tungsten project have substantially improved feed grade. The company reports results showing up to 4.1 times higher feed grade, with laboratory assays indicating tungsten trioxide grades as high as 1.91%.
Across outlets, the reporting focuses on the same trial outcome and the performance figures provided by Viking. The articles describe the work as test trials intended to enhance the quality of ore coming into processing, rather than as confirmation of final production-scale performance. No source in this set provides details on the specific sorting technology, sample volumes, processing conditions, or the timeline for moving from trials to operations, beyond linking the results to the Nevada project.
