But the company received a "strong warning" from Greenlandic authorities after beginning to transport equipment to the semiautonomous Danish territory ahead of planned drilling this winter. "Current guidance by the regulators is for winter 2027 drilling."But Greenland’s Mineral Resources Authority said it is still processing and awaiting documentation from the licensee related to the drilling program. Hammeken-Holm, Greenland’s permanent secretary for Mineral Resources, told Newsweek the winter 2027 timeline was only "maybe" realistic, and said it was "hard to tell" when drilling could commence.
