Bluejay Mining PLC (LON:JAY) has joined a local workforce training scheme to build a skilled labour pool for its Dundas ilmenite project in Greenland.

The scheme is organised by the Greenland School of Minerals and Petroleum and aimed at people in the Qaanaaq settlement, a village 80 km north of the project.

Bluejay added it will also take part in the Baume Construction & Mining Machinery trade fair, ahead of commercial mining commencing at Dundas.

Roderick McIllree, Bluejay’s chief executive, said: "We are delighted to be a key industry participant in the local training programme established by the Greenland School of Minerals and Petroleum.
