Coffee with Samso Episode 136 is with Michael Jardine, Managing Director of Ironbark Zinc Limited (ASX: IBG). When I first came across Ironbark Zinc, I was intrigued by the Citronen Zinc-Lead project in Greenland. It is a project that has basically ticked all the boxes for mining and production to happen immediately. The Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS) was released in July 2021 which looked pretty good. I reached out to Michael to see if we could have a Coffee and showcase what I think is a ready made project. It is not every day that you come across a project that seems to have all their ducks lined up in a row but is still not a happening thing.
