Glava Region

As part of delivery on its multi-asset strategy, since late in 2025, South Harz has executed an Option Agreement to acquire the Glava Cu-Au-Ag Project and submitted applications for a further three permit areas, located within the Värmland Province, Sweden, via its Scandinavian partner McKnight Resources AB.

Glava 100

The Glava 100 Project covers 430ha under a single exploration licence located within the eastern extensions of the Proterozoic Grenville Orogenic Belt, an emerging copper-gold exploration district extending through Scandinavia, the UK, Greenland and Newfoundland.

Glava 100 comprises a highly prospective and underexplored copper-gold system with a history of high-grade artisanal production. It hosts outcropping bornite, covellite and chalcocite mineralisation, and visible tellurides – frequently a component of epithermal deposits.

Historic records show that artisanal mining at Glava Koppargruvor produced ~2,280 tonnes of rock, including 49 tonnes with a grade of 10.5% Cu, as well as additional enriched ore stockpiles from shallow early 20th-century workings (Lundegårdh 1995).

Permit Applications

The Glava 200 and Glava 300 licence application areas cover 1,825ha and are immediately adjacent on either side of the existing Glava 100 Exploration Licence area.

Glava 200 is located within the eastern extensions of the Proterozoic Grenville Orogenic Belt.

South Harz also submitted an application for the Klinten 100 permit which covers 1,216ha and is  located within close proximity to the Glava Project.

Klinten 100 demonstrates the presence of small-scale historical mining and during the 19-20th century, chalcocite, chalcopyrite and bornite mineralisation was identified.

Historic mining in the area delivered production of over 10% copper content.  Whilst no modern exploration has been carried out across the application areas, South Harz believes all three licences demonstrate excellent exploration potential.
