Critical mineral development from proven ground.

Mineral Road Discovery re-reads historic and regional mining data to re-assess ground that was passed over. Our first project is a tungsten district in Sweden that produced metal for 70 years.

Why tungsten

Tungsten is a strategic metal in tight supply

  1. Europe put tungsten on its short list.

    The EU classifies tungsten as both a Critical and a Strategic Raw Material.

  2. Sweden treats it as national security.

    In July 2026, Sweden declared the mining of critical metals a national security interest.

  3. Supply is concentrated outside the West.

    Most tungsten is produced outside the West, and China has placed export controls on it.

Featured project

Our first project: Bergslagen, Sweden

A tungsten district in the Yxsjoberg area produced metal from 1918 until it closed in 1989. We are working through the archived data to understand what the ground still holds.

Our approach

We work from historic data, not from scratch

Our approach is consistent: take historic and regional data, re-analyse it, and re-assess ground that was passed over. Bergslagen is that approach in action. Everything else we hold is the same idea at an earlier stage.
