Core Nickel is a junior nickel exploration company that controls 100% of approximately 150,000 hectares of exploration ground in the prolific Thompson Nickel Belt (TNB) in Northern Manitoba, Canada, which is proximal to existing infrastructure such as highways and operating mills. Core Nickel has a large contiguous land package in the northern part of the TNB that hosts the Mel deposit, which is approximately 20 km northwest of the City of Thompson. The Mel deposit has a historical NI-43-101 resource estimation with an indicated resource of 4.3 million tonnes at 0.875% nickel, equating to 82.5 million lbs contained Nickel, and a historically inferred resource estimate of 1.0 million tonnes at 0.839% nickel, equating to 18.7 million pounds of contained Nickel. The company also holds two properties in the southern TNB, which hosts known elevated nickel mineralization that is proximal to existing nickel deposits, mills, and other infrastructure.
The Mining sector includes emerging companies engaged in mineral exploration and development, the backbone of Canada's natural resource industry.
