Gladhammar
Gladhammar is Crustal's main project and the technical core of the Västervik district. The project includes the Gladhammar K no. 1 exploitation concession, extensive historical drilling, and documented mineralisation of gold, silver, copper, and bismuth.
Project focus
New resource estimate for the A-lens
Updates the known near-surface gold deposit according to current industry practice and clarifies the project's technical starting point.Developed geological model for the Solberg field
Improves understanding of how gold and sulphide mineralisation occurs in the known mineralised zone.Testing of extensions and parallel structures
Investigates whether the mineralisation continues along strike, in parallel trends and at depth.Ground geophysics over the Solberg field, the Z-zone and adjacent structures
Defines structures and anomalies that can be prioritised for future drilling.RC drilling and surface sampling near known mineralised zones
Tests whether geophysical anomalies coincide with metal grades near the surface.Supplementary analyses of historical drill core
Investigates previously unanalysed or incompletely analysed intervals without new diamond drilling.
Gladhammar is Crustal's most advanced project. Unlike an early-stage exploration target, the project is based on an existing exploitation concession, significant historical drilling, and an extensive technical database from previous investigations. The most well-defined part of the project is the A-lens, where historical work has documented gold, silver, and copper mineralisation.
The historical drilling database provides Crustal with a concrete platform for continued technical work. The company's focus is to structure, validate, and further develop existing information through the re-assaying of historical drill core material, geological modelling, geophysic, and targeted field follow-up. The work aims to strengthen the understanding of the mineralisation's geometry, metal content, and continuation in the area.
In addition to the A-lens, there are further mineralised zones and structures within the project area. Crustal's work is therefore focused on both near-resource technical evaluation and continued exploration along strike, at depth, and in parallel structures. The combination of an exploitation concession, historical drilling, and documented polymetallic mineralisation makes Gladhammar the company's most important project platform.
