Company Statement

Belvedere Resources Limited is a mining and exploration company based in Finland. Primarily focused on nickel and gold, Belvedere has two operating nickel mines and a large portfolio of advanced exploration projects.

Belvedere has strong internal growth prospects, through a solid pipeline of development projects. Our long history in Finland and experienced Finnish mining team uniquely positions Belvedere to capitalise on these assets.

The company is currently the eighth biggest claim holder in Finland, with a diverse portfolio of nickel, gold, cobalt, zinc and copper properties, all stages of the development cycle.


Current Operations

Hitura Mine

  • Belvedere acquired the operation from Outokumpu Mining, June 2007
  • Belvedere increases reserves by 156% at the Hitura Nickel Mine
  • Commissioned 3.5 million euro (CAN $5M) exploration programme underway to developing further resources and reserves at the Hitura middle and south orebodies.
Särkiniemi Mine
  • First concentrates shipped in July
  • Open pit mine completed Nov 16th – 62,000 t @ 1% Ni
  • Underground “crown pillar” operation commences December for an additional 30,000 t of higher grade ore
  • Now infill drilling Särkiniemi East 
The Nickel ore is hosted in the base of a small shallow dipping intrusion which is inferred to be tectonically removed from a much larger intrusion to the south. The ore is faulted off on the southern margin. A large geophysical survey is commissioned to start exploration of the area.

Luikonlahti Mill

Engineering studies are underway to assess maintenance and investment required to re-commission the mill. Studies will look at expanding the existing capacity of around 800 tonnes per day up to a 1600-2000 tonne per day capacity.
