Exciting Discoveries from Canada Nickel's Latest Drilling
Promising Exploration Drilling Results from Canada Nickel
Highlights
- MID25-17A intersected strong nickel mineralization immediately below overburden at 5.3 m with 0.30% nickel over 18.7 m and 0.30% nickel over 330.0 metres
- MID25-18A intersected 0.29% nickel over 449.0 metres including 0.36% nickel over 10.5 metres
- Success in extending the outline of nickel mineralization by 200-300 metres to the south
- Initial mineral resource anticipated by year-end 2025
Canada Nickel Company Inc. (TSXV: CNC) (OTCQX: CNIKF) has announced additional positive results from exploration drilling at its Midlothian Property. This site, located in a promising region, is quickly becoming a significant asset for the company.
Details of Recent Drilling
The CEO of Canada Nickel, Mark Selby, expressed optimism about the ongoing drilling at the Midlothian property. He stated, "The third of our 'Three Giants' continues to exceed expectations. The latest drill assays at Midlothian have shown the most consistently higher-grade intervals across any of our 18 drilled properties." Recent results have indicated that three holes returned 0.29–0.30% nickel over extensive lengths, highlighting the area’s potential.
Midlothian Property Overview
The Midlothian property is easily accessible year-round by road. It represents a joint venture between Canada Nickel and other mining entities. This collaboration is entering its final year, with Canada Nickel needing to make a final payment and issue shares to secure 100% ownership. During the summer drilling campaign, all six drill holes intersected long stretches of mineralized dunite. The significant findings stem from a geophysical target measuring 2.7 kilometres long and 0.4 to 0.9 kilometres wide.
With three more holes presenting pending assay results, Canada Nickel is dedicated to evaluating this dataset. This comprehensive analysis will assist in formulating an initial resource estimate by the end of 2025.
Drilling Highlights and Assays
Below are some key highlights from Midlothian drilling:
| Hole ID | From (m) | To (m) | Length (m)* | Ni % | Co % | Pd g/t | Pt g/t | Cr % | Fe % | S % |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MID25-17A | 5.3 | 24.0 | 18.7 | 0.30 | 0.009 | 0.003 | 0.003 | 0.11 | 4.02 | 0.06 |
| and | 54.0 | 384.0 | 330.0 | 0.30 | 0.010 | 0.034 | 0.006 | 0.12 | 4.45 | 0.01 |
| MID25-18A | 39.9 | 489.0 | 449.1 | 0.29 | 0.010 | 0.004 | 0.005 | 0.12 | 4.30 | 0.02 |
Additional parameters are included for a more detailed understanding of the drilling. This will provide essential insights towards future development.
Future Steps for Canada Nickel
Canada Nickel recently announced plans to issue shares to a service provider, pending approval from the TSX Venture Exchange. This decision highlights the company’s momentum as it continues to progress in its initiatives and maintain quality oversight of its mineral assets.
The company is making strides in its quest towards net-zero carbon initiatives in nickel production. With its flagship Crawford Nickel-Cobalt Sulphide Project, Canada Nickel is well-positioned to meet the rising demand in electric vehicle and stainless steel markets.
