Franconia Minerals has launched a new study, for their precious metals project at Birch Lake.

The study will focus on how the natural rock will react after being exposed during the mining process.

Results will be used in the development of a future plan, to minimize potential environmental impacts.

Franconia's goal is to become the second company to build a copper-nickel-platinum group venture on the Iron Range, after PolyMet.
