April 30, 2025
I’m joined by Garrett Ainsworth, President and CEO of District Metals (TSX.V:DMX – OTCQB:DMXCF – Nasdaq First North: DMXSE SDB), to break down the newly announced resource estimate at the Viken Deposit in Sweden. With 1.5 billion pounds of U₃O₈ at 161 ppm, Viken now ranks as the second-largest uranium deposit in the world.
Key topics covered:
- Major upgrade from the 2014 historical estimate with 44% growth in Inferred and 900%+ in Indicated categories.
- Garrett explains how the company advanced the resource without drilling, leveraging historical data.
- Comparison to other global uranium projects, including Olympic Dam and legacy M&A deals in Southern Africa.
- Strategic value of the deposit’s polymetallic makeup, which includes vanadium, nickel, molybdenum, copper, zinc, and potentially rare earth elements.
- Plans for upcoming field work, geophysics, and preparation for a PEA (Preliminary Economic Assessment) pending Sweden’s uranium moratorium vote in September.
- Why this resource could have far-reaching strategic and permitting benefits for Sweden and the EU.
If you have any follow up questions for Garrett please email me at Fleck@kereport.com.

Hi Ex, I just read your thread on rare earth elements, a lot of very useful information is impacted in that article. Anyone who wants to know more about investing in that sector should check out Ex’s article. He as usual always gets down to the meat of the matter and avoids the dribble or like he says signal over noise. Often times investors don’t do any due diligence, not a problem if you read these articles that have been thoroughly researched and sent out to us via e-mail or are posted on the Ker Report with a link.
