Canadian North Resources Inc. Announces Financial Results
Key Highlights:
- Submitted a new National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report that outlines the extensive and high-grade Mineral Resources at the Ferguson Lake Project. Notably, 80% of the Indicated Mineral Resource is suitable for Open Pit mining, establishing a robust foundation for the potential development of a large mine.
- Scheduled geophysical programs aimed at uncovering new exploration targets with considerable resource upside potential along the 15 km long main mineralized horizon and in additional zones.
- In line with the new Technical Report, we plan to conduct new metallurgical tests, engage with the community, evaluate the economic aspects, and carry out environmental studies for a low-carbon footprint mine development at the Ferguson Lake Project.
Canadian North Resources Inc. (“Canadian North” or the “Company”) (TSXV: CNRI; OTCQX: CNRSF; FSE: EO0) is excited to share its operational and financial results for the second quarter.
Dr. Kaihui Yang, the President and CEO, remarked: "This quarter, we filed the new National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report, which shows that the Ferguson Lake project is among the highest-grade and largest undeveloped copper, nickel, cobalt, palladium, and platinum projects in North America. The Technical Report is also available on the Company’s website.”
“The report highlights the identification of substantial Mineral Resources, providing a solid base for the initial development of a potential large mine. We are actively pursuing follow-up metallurgical testing, exploring new technologies, and have initiated community engagement programs along with environmental studies aimed at developing a low-carbon footprint mine at the Ferguson Lake Project.”
Operational Highlights for the Quarter
“The Technical Report reveals a strong potential for resource expansion within several unexplored mineralization zones and promising areas. We have outlined geological and geophysical evaluation programs to pinpoint targets along the confirmed high-grade mineralized zones at the Ferguson Lake Project.”
For the quarter ending June 30, 2024, the Company reported a net loss and comprehensive loss of $1,227,973, translating to $0.01 per share. By the end of the quarter, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $3,775,557.
