BHP – Alliance agreement with Kingsrose Mining Limited

We acted as the Finnish legal advisor for BHP in connection with an exploration alliance agreement entered into between BHP and Kingsrose Mining Limited under which BHP (through a wholly owned subsidiary) will provide funding for regional mineral exploration across areas of interest in Finland. As part of the arrangement announced on 22 May 2024, BHP and Kingsrose entered into two exploration alliance agreements, focusing on nickel and copper exploration in specified regions in Finland and Norway. In Finland, the alliance agreement covers Kingsrose’s four exploration reservations at the Central Finland project in the Kotalahti Nickel Belt, a 400 kilometre long greenstone belt which hosts the past producing Hitura, Kotalahti and Enonkoski nickel mines. The alliances follow from Kingsrose’s successful participation in the BHP Xplor program, a global accelerator program targeting innovative, early-stage mineral exploration companies to find the critical resources necessary to drive the energy transition.
