Arkadian has successfully completed its 2026 field programme at Motzfeldt, delivering new samples and field datasets to support the next phase of technical work. Processing and interpretation of the field datasets are now under way.

Four bulk sample lots, each weighing approximately 500–600 kg, were collected from the Aries mineral resource area and are in transit to the UK. Following delivery and review of the earlier beneficiation work, Arkadian will define the next mineralogical and processing testwork programme.

Field spectral data and photogrammetry from Aries, Merino and Voskop are being processed to support geological mapping and target definition. Integration with satellite data will follow completion of the remaining acquisition and processing work.

Environmental baseline studies and seabed surveys at two potential port locations will inform the continuing infrastructure review. The baseline work also contributes evidence towards a future exploitation licence application.

The completed programme, which delivered fully on all key objectives, gives Arkadian a strong technical foundation for the next phase of work at Motzfeldt, with fresh material for processing studies and new datasets to guide resource targeting and infrastructure planning.
