Our US tungsten Investment Viking Mines (ASX: VKA | OTC: VKALF) has a rig on the way to its tungsten project in Nevada, USA.

Arrival is expected later this week - with drilling to start straight after its arrival.

VKA will be drilling a project that produced tungsten between 1941 and 1956 before mining stopped because the US government suspended its tungsten buying program. (source)

Now, with the US government out encouraging domestic critical mineral production - we are Invested in VKA to see the project get put back into production.

The first hole is expected in the week starting the 27th of July (weather and site conditions permitting), so not long to wait now until the drill gets spinning.

This will be the first drilling at the project in over 40 years.
