Lion Zone Discovery Roars Again ! - 19.6 Metres @ 3.82% CuEq
Power Nickel (PNPN) has announced significant drilling results from its Lion Zone discovery. Hole PN-24-072 yielded impressive results with 19.60 meters of 3.82% CuEq, including 1.27 g/t Au, 20.30 g/t Ag, 2.53% Cu, 1.01 g/t Pd, 2.42 g/t Pt, and 0.15% Ni. The company continues its westward expansion with two active drills on site, demonstrating strong lateral continuity of the zone. The summer drilling program utilized a 50-metre fan drilling approach, while fall and winter programs are successfully executing 150-plus metre step-outs using downhole EM technology.

Figure 1 below is a vertical longitudinal section, presenting the location of the recent holes drilled at the Lion Zone discovery.
Table 1 below presents the significant results of previously released holes, and the current assays. The complete set of results obtained demonstrates a tremendous success rate, which contributes to a continuously increasing level of confidence about the continuity of the zone.
As presented by Figure 1 above, two drills are on site and actively targeting expansions to the Lion Zone, continuing to expand the zone to the west (current hole PN-24-082) as well as exploring promising ground some 250m east of the Lion Discovery itself (PN-24-088). Samples will be expedited to the lab and results will be released as they are received. Results obtained to-date continue to demonstrate the lateral continuity of the zone to the west, resulting in a significant increase in size compared to the beginning of this current drill program.
"We are impressed with what we have discovered so far, given the impressive grades and polymetallic nature of the deposit. We are ramping up our exploration efforts using different proven geophysical and geochemical techniques and we are actively processing the data. This will accelerate the expansion and discovery process, thus enabling us to step out away from the current zone with a much higher level of confidence," commented Ken Williamson, Vice-President Exploration.

Figure 2 below is a cross-section through the Lion Zone, along the holes reported in this current release, presenting the new assay results in their geological context. Core photos provide visual support, allowing appreciation of the good correlation between sulphides presence and reported polymetallic grades.
QAQC and Sampling
GeoVector Management Inc ("GeoVector") is the consulting company retained to perform the actual drilling program, which includes core logging and sampling of the drill core.
All samples were submitted to and analyzed at Activation Laboratories Ltd ("Actlabs"), an independent commercial laboratory for both the sample preparation and assaying. Actlabs is a commercial laboratory independent of Power Nickel with no interest in the Project. Actlabs is an ISO 9001 and 17025 certified and accredited laboratories. Samples submitted through Actlabs are run through standard preparation methods and analysed using RX-1 (Dry, crush (< 7 kg) up to
GeoVector's QAQC program includes regular insertion of CRM standards, duplicates, and blanks into the sample stream with a stringent review of all results.
The results presented in the current Press Release are complete within the mineralized intervals, but results are still pending for the top portion of both holes reported. QAQC and data validation was performed on these portions of the holes where assays are fully integrated, and no material errors were observed.
The Company also announces that it previously granted 600,000 options to an officer of the Company on September 9, 2024 at
