About Mawson Resources Ltd (TSX:MAW, FRANKFURT:MRY, PINKSHEETS:MWSNF) Mawson Resources Ltd is a resource acquisition and development company with metal and energy interests.

Mawson has distinguished itself as a leading Scandinavian gold and uranium exploration company with a focus on the flagship Rompas project in Finland.

With a strong cash position and a multi-jurisdiction European and South American portfolio, Mawson is ideally positioned to enhance its status as a leader in the uranium and gold industries.
