Canada Nickel's Exciting Exploration Results

Canada Nickel Company Inc. has unveiled impressive exploration results from its mineral properties known as the 'Three Giants'—a promising trio that includes Reid, Mann West, and Midlothian. The latest findings include the highest grade nickel encountered to date at the Mann West site, showcasing the immense potential for resource development in the Timmins Nickel District.

Strong Results from the Three Giants

The ongoing drilling activities at the Three Giants properties have revealed encouraging results. At Mann West, the team reported a remarkable grade interval of 0.63% nickel over 4.5 meters. This exceptional finding is part of a larger mineralized core length of 452 meters, which averages 0.27% nickel. This new data is highlighted in drill hole MAN24-79, where a notable interval of 18 meters yielded 0.40% nickel. Such high-grade intervals point to the rich potential of the Mann West project, which lies strategically between Timmins and Cochrane.

In addition to Mann West, the Midlothian site demonstrated consistent results with 0.32% nickel discovered over 49 meters, embedded within a total hole length of 441.5 meters at 0.29% nickel from drill hole MID24-13. Lastly, the Reid project continues to meet expectations with infill drilling indicating 0.48% nickel across 12 meters and other successful hits, reinforcing the viability of these deposits.

Insights from Canada Nickel's Exploration Strategy

Mark Selby, CEO of Canada Nickel, expressed his enthusiasm for the results, noting that the exploration program is yielding outstanding outcomes across all three sites. He underscored the strategic importance of these targets, each possessing a footprint considerably larger than that of their flagship Crawford Nickel Sulphide Project. Selby stated, "We aim to publish the remaining six resources by mid-2025, facilitating the establishment of a robust portfolio showcasing the substantial nickel resources available in the Timmins area."

Detailed Breakdown of Findings

Mann West Property

The Mann West site is characterized by a significant geophysical target extending approximately 3.5 kilometers long and 1.1 kilometers wide, amounting to a surface area of 3.4 square kilometers. The drilling program, which included 40 holes, was concentrated on shouldering the southern half of Mann West. This area revealed extensive intervals of well-serpentinized peridotite, along with visible nickel sulphide mineralization, primarily comprising pentlandite and heazlewoodite.

Drill results hold strong promise, with notable intervals revealed in different holes, including:

• - Hole MAN24-79: 0.63% nickel over 4.5 meters within an 18-meter section averaging 0.40% nickel.
• - Hole MAN24-80: Confirmed several valuable intervals averaging 0.24% nickel.

Midlothian Property

Similar successes were echoed from the Midlothian property, located 70 kilometers south-southeast of Timmins. The property has completed 16 drill holes, all of which intersected long intervals of dunite at shallow depths, revealing high nickel concentrations.

Reid Project

At Reid, Canada Nickel has continued with its focused drilling efforts aimed at upgrading mineral resources. Evidence of higher-grade nickel was detected in recent drill holes, including overlapping intervals showing promising grades, indicating a high continuity of mineralization.

Conclusion

The recent exploration results from Canada Nickel’s Three Giants properties not only highlight the potential of the individual sites but also affirm the overall significance of the Timmins Nickel District as a burgeoning hub for nickel mining. With an ever-growing portfolio and promising findings, Canada Nickel is positioned at the forefront of resource discovery, meeting the rising global demand for nickel, particularly in electric vehicle production.
