Canada Nickel Completes Current Phase of Crawford Drilling, Announces Highest Grade Interval to Date

Rhea-AI Summary

Canada Nickel Company (CNIKF) announced exciting assay results from its Crawford Nickel Sulphide Project, achieving the highest grade interval to date with 64.5 metres of 0.71% nickel. The East Zone mineralization increased by 33% to 2.8 kilometres, with drilling extending to 1 kilometre depth. The PGM Zone also demonstrated potential with grades up to 1.4 g/t. Additionally, the company issued 1,040,000 stock options and 925,362 restricted share units, enhancing its incentive plans. Over 200 drill holes have been completed to support a resource increase expected mid-year.

Positive

• Highest-grade interval of 0.71% nickel over 64.5 metres achieved.
• East Zone mineralization extended by 33% to 2.8 kilometres.
• Increased drilling to support feasibility study and resource increase.
• Potential expansion of PGM Zone confirmed with up to 1.4 g/t grades.

Negative

• None.

Highlights

• Best Crawford high-grade interval to date; core length of 64.5 metres of 0.71% nickel from 472.5 metres including 6 metres of 1.04% nickel from East Zone High Grade Core
• Main Zone mineralization successfully drilled to a depth of 1 kilometre
• East Zone mineralization successfully infilled and extended by a further 33% to strike length of 2.8 kilometres
• PGM Zone continues to expand – 1.4 g/t PGM over 11.4 metres core length including 2.5 g/t PGM over 3 metres core length

TORONTO, April 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Canada Nickel Company Inc. ("Canada Nickel" or the "Company") (TSXV: CNC) (OTCQX: CNIKF) announced today it had completed its current phase of drilling at the Company's flagship Crawford Nickel Sulphide Project and is reporting assay results from 33 drill holes from the Crawford drilling program including additional assay results from the previously announced East Zone High Grade Core discovery. A further 37 holes have been drilled at Crawford with assays pending.

Mark Selby, Chair and Chief Executive Officer said, "We are very excited to reach this key milestone of completing this phase of infill drilling at Crawford to support the feasibility study.  The Crawford drilling program continued to deliver strong results, with this phase yielding the highest-grade interval to date, a 33% increase in strike length of East Zone mineralization to 2.8 kilometres, and further testing of Main Zone at depth to more than one kilometre. With more than 200 holes now completed - more than three times the drilling utilized in the Preliminary Economic Analysis ("PEA") – we are well-positioned to deliver a resource increase by mid-year to support the feasibility study expected by the end of this year."

Crawford East Zone

The East Zone was originally defined as two separate zones due to the limited amount of drilling included in the May 2021 PEA. Since then, Canada Nickel has drilled 38 more holes, 12 of which are summarized in this press release. Assays are still outstanding in the remaining 26 holes. The East Zone is now defined as a single continuous ultramafic unit mineralized over its strike length of 2.8 kilometres. It averages 200 metres in thickness and has been drilled to a vertical depth to as much as 730 metres and remains open at depth. The East Zone Higher Grade Core was successfully intercepted in multiple holes designed to better define its extent.  Hole CR21-165A was mineralized across its entire 690 metres length including a 409.5 metre interval of 0.34% nickel (42 metre true width) and 111 metre interval of 0.40% nickel (11.6 metres true width).  Hole CR21-153 was mineralized over entire core length grading 0.30% nickel over 584 metres including 0.45% nickel over 174 metres, 0.71% nickel over 64.5 metres, and 1.04% nickel over 6 metres.  Holes CR21-136, CR21-149, CR21-156 and CR21-165 also successfully intercepted Higher Grade Core.

Crawford Main and West Zone

Drilling within the Main and West Zone consisted of infill drilling to upgrade the resource and expand the resource northwest of the existing Main Zone Resource Estimate.  A total of 39 holes were completed with 21 holes summarized in this release and 18 holes with assays pending.

Drilling westward from the Main Zone has extended the mineralization continuously from the existing resource for a distance of 850 metres to the northwest where it remains open along strike and at depth. This mineralization includes a higher-grade zone as intersected in hole CR21-144 (core length of 69.5 metres of 0.43% Ni starting at 152 m). Four hundred metres farther to the north, mineralized ultramafic continues to be found such as CR21-130 which intersected 0.24% nickel over core length of 525 metres starting at 32.8 metres including a higher-grade zone of 0.34% nickel over 33.0 metres starting at 322.5 m. Hole CR22-198 was drilled to a core length of 1.04 kilometres and was continuously mineralized below 39 metres of overburden.

PGM Zone

PGM mineralization continued to be targeted with five additional holes. These results confirm the association of a PGM zone along the boundary of a gravity high structure which has a circumference of approximately 9.7 kilometres and borders the nickel mineralization in the Main and East Zones. Grades and true widths are consistent with previously reported drilling. Higher grade intervals, such as 2.8 g/t PGM over 1.5 metres (true width) in CR21-133 occur in some holes and lower grade intervals, such as 0.9 g/t PGM over 2 metres (true width) in CR21-134A occur in other holes, but the PGM Zone appears to be largely continuous. The PGM Zone will be more intensively targeted with a drill program during 2022.
