Misty Urbatsch, Chief Executive Officer and President of Core Nickel, stated the following:
“Achieving the CSE listing is a significant milestone for the Core Nickel team. This achievement will power Core Nickel to advance the Company’s tier-one nickel assets situated in the fifth largest sulfide nickel belt in the world, Thompson Nickel Belt, Manitoba. It also provides Core Nickel with the opportunity to further advance the Mel deposit, which boasts a historical NI-43-101 compliant indicated nickel resource of 82.0 million pounds. The strategic positioning of Core Nickel’s assets proximal to the world-class production center of Vale’s Thompson operation in Manitoba, Canada is a rarity. The untapped potential within Thompson Nickel Belt, an underexplored tier 1 nickel jurisdiction, presents a massive opportunity for a substantial new discovery. By unlocking the potential of our nickel asset, Core Nickel aims to support the ongoing efforts to increase the supply of responsibly sourced nickel, contributing to a net-zero future.” 

About Core Nickel

Core Nickel has a large contiguous land package in the northern part of the TNB, situated approximately 16-20 km from the City of Thompson. Core Nickel’s northern TNB projects consist of three properties: Mel, Hunter, and Odei River. The Mel property encompasses the Mel deposit, which is characterized by a historical NI-43-101 resource estimate with an indicated resource of 4.3 million tonnes at 0.875% nickel, equating to 82.5 million lbs contained nickel, and a historical inferred resource estimate of 1.0 million tonnes at 0.839% nickel, equating to 18.7 million pounds of contained nickel. The target stratigraphy (Pipe Formation) that hosts the Mel deposit, and other deposits in the Thompson Nickel Belt, extend onto the Hunter and Odei River properties and drill hole intersections into the target stratigraphy on the Hunter project have successfully intersected elevated nickel.

The company also holds two properties in the southern TNB near Wabowden: Halfway Lake and Resting Lake. Both properties host the target Pipe Formation associated with known elevated nickel mineralization and are proximal to existing nickel deposits, mills, and other infrastructure.
