VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Winshear Metals Corp. (TSX-V: WINS, FRA: 9HR0) reports positive results from the first ever metallurgical testwork conducted on the nickel – copper – cobalt mineralization from the Rodburn Target, Portsoy Project, NE Scotland.
The testwork was conducted by Blue Coast Research Ltd of British Columbia, Canada, under the supervision of Rob Thorpe (VP Innovation and Technology) and Tony Tran, P.Eng. (Project Metallurgist).
Highlights
Richard Williams, CEO of Winshear, commented; “These are very positive results at this stage of the Portsoy Project. It was key for us to understand the metallurgical characteristics of the mineralisation and to ensure the recoverability of the copper, nickel and cobalt and the quality of the concentrates produced at an early stage.
“The results provide confidence that the Rodburn mineralisation can be processed using conventional methods, with the potential to produce saleable copper and nickel concentrates, supporting the case for further optimisation testwork as the project advances.”
