Teako Minerals, a Vancouver-based mineral exploration company, has signed a non-binding letter of intent (LOI) with the Coring Company (TCC) to form a joint venture (JV) for exploring and developing mineral projects in Helgeland, Norway.

These projects are fully owned by Teako Minerals and were acquired during its extensive 2024 staking programme. This was based on previous work carried out by BP Minerals under the Helgeland project.
