Canada Nickel Announces Receipt of Support Letter for up to $500 million from Leading Financial Institution
Canada Nickel Company (TSXV: CNC) (OTCQX: CNIKF) has received a support letter from a leading financial institution expressing interest in providing up to C$500 million (US$370 million) in long-term debt financing for the Crawford Nickel Sulphide Project in Timmins, Ontario. This is in addition to the US$500 million letter of interest from Export Development Canada announced last week. Combined, these letters amount to approximately US$870 million of potential senior debt.
The company also expects to qualify for refundable critical minerals and carbon capture and storage tax credits exceeding US$600 million for Crawford's initial development phase.

캐나다 니켈 회사 (TSXV: CNC) (OTCQX: CNIKF)는 온타리오 주 팀민스에 있는 크로포드 니켈 황화물 프로젝트에 대해 주요 금융 기관으로부터 지원 서한을 받아 최대 5억 캐나다 달러 (3억 7천만 미국 달러)의 장기 채무 자금 조달에 대한 관심을 나타냈습니다. 이는 지난주에 발표된 캐나다 수출 개발 공사로부터의 5억 미국 달러의 관심 서한에 추가되는 것입니다. 두 서한을 합치면 약 8억 7천만 미국 달러의 잠재적 시니어 채무에 해당합니다.
회사는 또한 크로포드의 초기 개발 단계에 대해 6억 달러 이상의 환급 가능한 주요 광물 및 탄소 포집 및 저장 세액 공제를 받을 것으로 예상하고 있습니다. 이러한 재정적 발전 덕분에 캐나다 니켈은 허가가 받는 대로 건설을 시작하는 데 필요한 나머지 프로젝트 자금을 확보할 좋은 위치에 있습니다. 이는 2025년 중반에 예상됩니다.
