Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 5, 2022) - Nickel North Exploration Corp. (TSXV: NNX) (" Nickel North" or the "Company") today announced an updated Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") for its 100% owned Hawk Ridge Nickel-Nickel-Cobalt-PGE Sulphide Project ("Hawk Ridge") in Northern Québec. The NI-43-101 Inferred MRE increased by 76.6% to 34.66 Mt from 19.63 Mt and includes an update on its previously reported Hope Advance Main ("HAM") Zone and Hope Advance North ("HAN"), Gamma and Falco 7 Deposits.

加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华-(Newsfile Corp.-2022年7月5日)-北方镍业勘探公司(多伦多证券交易所股票代码:NNX)(以下称“北方镍业”或“公司”)今天宣布,该公司对其位于魁北克北部的鹰岭镍-镍-钴-PGE硫化物项目(“鹰岭”)进行了最新的矿产资源评估。NI-43-101推定MRE由19.63公吨增加至34.66公吨,增幅达76.6%,并包括先前报告的Hope Advance Main(“Ham”)区及Hope Advance North(“HAN”)、Gamma及Falco 7矿藏的最新资料。

Highlights:

重点:

  • Total Inferred Mineral Resources for four mineralized deposits (Hope Advance Main (HAM), Hope Advance North (HAN), Gamma and Falco 7) increase by 76.6% to 34.66 Mt at 0.22%, 0.56% Cu, 0.013% Co, 0.19  g/t Pd, 0.05 g/t Pt and 0.025 g/t Au (Table 1), which includes:

    • Total Pit-Constrained Inferred Mineral Resources at a CDN$35/t NSR cut-off increase by 50% to 29.44 Mt at 0.20% Ni, 0.52% Cu, 0.012% Co, 0.19 g/t Pd, 0.04 g/t Pt and 0.021 g/t Au, which equates to 0.56% NiEq.

    • Total Out-Of-Pit (Underground) Inferred Mineral Resources at a CDN$100/t NSR cut-off are estimated at 5.22 Mt at average grades of 0.35% Ni, 0.79% Cu, 0.014% Co, 0.23 g/t Pd, 0.06 g/t Pt, and 0.04 g/t Au, which equates to 0.88% NiEq.

  • The higher-grade "Raglan Type" sulphide mineralization exists in all four reported nickel-copper sulphide deposits and all of them remain open along strike and down-dip (Figure 2-4); Hawk Ridge has a similar rock age/type and is part of the same Circum-Superior nickel belt, and lastly same occurrences of Ni-Cu & PGE metals found (Figure 1).

  • 四个矿化矿床(Ham)、HAN(HAN)、Gamma和Falco 7的总推断矿产资源量分别为0.22%、0.56%Cu、0.013%Co、0.19 g/t Pd、0.05 g/t Pt和0.025 g/t Au,增加了76.6%,达到34.66Mt(表1),其中包括:

    • 当镍含量为0.20%、铜含量为0.52%、钴含量为0.012%、钯含量为0.19g/t、铂含量为0.04g/t、金含量为0.021 g/t时,矿坑受限推断矿产资源总量增加50%至29.44Mt,相当于0.56%镍当量。

    • 总的矿场外(地下)推断矿产资源量以100加元/吨自然资源界线计算,估计为5.22百万吨,平均品位为0.35%镍、0.79%铜、0.014%钴、0.23克/吨钯、0.06克/吨铂和0.04克/吨金,相当于0.88%镍当量。

  • 所有四个已报告的镍铜硫化物矿床中均存在品位较高的“拉格兰类型”硫化物矿化,且均沿走向和向下倾斜(图2-4);鹰岭具有类似的岩石年龄/类型,是相同的环状-上等镍带的一部分,最后发现了相同的镍-铜和铂族金属产状(图1)。

  • 霍克岭的矿化结构和矿点中约50%仍有巨大的勘探潜力,尚未钻探或未测试,不久将积极勘探(图5)。

Tony Guo, President and CEO of Nickel North commented, "This Mineral Resource update delivers on both of its key objectives - better definition and increased the Pit-Constrained Mineral Resource and establishing an initial Mineral Resource for potential underground mining. With a 76.6% increase in total Inferred Mineral Resources, and an initial Out-of-Pit Mineral Resource, this update puts NNX in excellent position for the planning the next large drilling program to further define both high grade Out-of-Pit targets and expanding the Pit-Constrained Mineral Resources in the late 2022 to summer 2023 working seasons.

Nickel North首席执行官兼首席执行官郭朝伟表示:“此次矿产资源更新实现了两个主要目标--更好地定义和增加矿坑受限矿产资源,以及为潜在的地下开采建立初始矿产资源。随着推断矿产资源总量的76.6%增长,以及最初的矿场外矿产资源,本次更新使NNX处于规划下一个大型钻探计划的绝佳位置,以进一步确定高品位矿场外目标,并在2022年末至2023年夏季的工作季节扩大矿坑受限矿产资源。

"Note that the Mineral Resource Estimate is based on drilling up to 2014 and there has been no drilling since then, with over 50 kilometers of north-south strike length. The entire Hawk Ridge land package is open for exploration and only a fraction of it included in this Mineral Resource Estimate. (Figure 5)

“请注意,矿产资源评估是基于截至2014年的钻探,自那以来一直没有钻探,南北走向长度超过50公里。整个鹰岭土地包都是开放勘探的,只有一小部分包括在这次矿产资源评估中。(图5)

"I look forward to the 2022 summer surface exploration program and 2023 drilling program to explore our several highly prospective nickel-copper-cobalt-PGM targets at Hawk Ridge, and to completing further mineral and metallurgical testing for the Hawk Ridge."

我期待着2022年夏季地表勘探计划和2023年钻探计划,以探索我们在鹰岭的几个极具前景的镍-铜-钴-铂矿目标,并完成对鹰岭的进一步矿物和冶金测试。

Nickel North Mineral Resource Estimate Update

最新北镍矿产资源评估

For this update to the 2013 initial Mineral Resource Estimate, two drill holes (HR2014-49 and HR2014-50) completed in late-2014 were added to the original 2013 database, for a total of 37,262 m drilled. A sampling and mineral characteristic study was completed in 2014 by XPS Consulting and Testwork Service (), a Glencore company. The results of the study were utilized to calculate the Mineral Resources in the four deposits as provided in Table 1 below. The Pit-Constrained Inferred Mineral Resources of 29.44 Mt grading 0.20% Ni, 0.52% Cu, 0.012% Co, 0.19 g/t Pd, 0.04 g/t Pt and 0.021 g/t Au, which equates to a 0.56% NiEq and Out-Pit Inferred Mineral Resources of 5.22 Mt at average grades of 0.35% Ni, 0.79% Cu, 0.014% Co, 0.06 g/t Pt, 0.23 g/t Pd and 0.04 g/t Au, which equates to a 0.88% NiEq. An NSR cut-off of CDN$35/t was used for Pit-Constrained Mineral Resource reporting and an NSR cut-off of CDN$100/t for the higher-grade Out-of-Pit Mineral Resource reporting. Example block model views of the Mineral Resource Estimate are provided in Figures 2 to 4 below. The drilling programs were conducted from the 1960s to 2014. This Mineral Resource Estimate was prepared by P&E Mining Consultants Inc. in accordance with 2014 CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves and 2019 CIM Best Practices Guidelines. A Technical Report in support of the Mineral Resource Estimate will be filed on SEDAR () within 45 days of this news release.

为更新二零一三年矿产资源初步估计,于二零一四年底完成的两个钻孔(HR2014-49和HR2014-50)已加入二零一三年的原始数据库,共钻出37,262米。XPS Consulting和嘉能可旗下的Testwork Service()于2014年完成了一项采样和矿物特征研究。研究结果被用来计算下文表1提供的四个矿藏的矿产资源量。矿坑内推断矿产资源量为29.44Mt,品位为0.20%Ni、0.52%Cu、0.012%Co、0.19 g/t Pd、0.04 g/t Pt和0.021 g/t Au,相当于0.56%NiEq和5.22 Mt矿体外推断矿产资源量,平均品位为0.35%Ni、0.79%Cu、0.014%Co、0.06 g/t Pt、0.23 g/t Pd和0.04 g/t Au,相当于0.88%NiEq。NSR下限为35加元/吨,用于矿坑受限矿产资源报告,NSR下限为100加元/吨,用于较高等级的矿外矿产资源报告。下面的图2至图4提供了矿产资源量估算的示例块模型视图。钻探项目是在20世纪60年代至2014年进行的。本矿产资源评估由P&E矿业咨询公司根据2014年CIM矿产资源和储量定义标准和2019年CIM最佳实践指南编制。支持矿产资源评估的技术报告将在本新闻稿发布后45天内提交给SEDAR()。

The Mineral Resource Estimate is effective as of May 31, 2022.

矿产资源评估自2022年5月31日起生效。

Notes:

备注:

  • CIM definitions (2014) and Best Practices Guidelines (2019) were followed for Mineral Resource estimation
  • Mineral Resources were estimated by conventional 3-D block modelling based on wireframing at a CDN$35/tonne NSR cut-off for Pit-Constrained Mineral Resources and a CDN$100/tonne NSR cut-off for Out-of-Pit Mineral Resources using inverse distance squared grade interpolation.
  • Metal prices for the estimate are: US$4.00/lb Cu, US$9.25/lb Ni, US$1,350/oz Pt, US$1800/oz Pd, US$1,750/oz Au and US$26.00/lb Co based on a two-year trailing average as of May 31, 2022, along with Consensus Economics metal price forecasting.
  • A variable bulk density of 3.01 tonnes/m3 or greater has been applied for volume to tonnes conversion.
  • - Pit-Constrained Mineral Resources are estimated from surface to pit floor depths of 100 m to 230 m.
  • Out-of-Pit Mineral Resources are estimated from 100 m to 275 m below pit floors
  • Mineral Resources are classified as Inferred based on drill hole spacing, geologic continuity and quality of data.
  • Mineral Resources which are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.
  • The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.
  • 矿产资源评估遵循CIM定义(2014)和最佳实践指南(2019)
  • 矿产资源量是通过传统的3-D区块模型进行评估的,线框模型基于线框图,矿坑受限矿产资源的NSR下限为35加元/吨,矿场外矿产资源的NSR下限为100加元/吨,使用反距离平方品位插值法。
  • 根据截至2022年5月31日的两年往绩平均值以及Consensus Economics金属价格预测,估计的金属价格为:铜4.00美元/磅,镍9.25美元/磅,铂1350美元/盎司,铂1800美元/盎司,金1,750美元/盎司,钴26.00美元/磅。
  • 可变容重为3.01公吨/米3或更多已申请数量到吨的转换。
  • -矿坑受限矿产资源估计从地表到矿坑底部深度为100米至230米。
  • 井外矿产资源量估计在井底以下100米至275米之间。
  • 根据钻孔间距、地质连续性和数据质量将矿产资源分类为推断。
  • 不属于矿产储备的矿产资源不具有经济可行性。矿产资源的估计可能会受到环境、许可、法律、所有权、税收、社会政治、营销或其他相关问题的重大影响。
  • 这一估计中推断的矿产资源的置信度较低,适用于已指明的矿产资源,不得转换为矿产储量。合理地预期,随着勘探的继续,大部分推断矿产资源可升级为指示矿产资源。

The Cu, Ni, Co, Pt, Pd, and Au mineralization lies at or near surface and is potentially amenable to low strip ratio, open-pit mining. The mineralized wireframes for the four deposits were constructed based on host rock lithology and mineralization at an open pit operating cut-off Net Smelter Return ("NSR") of CDN$35/t as calculated by P&E. The NSR calculation was based on a two-year trailing average metal prices and Consensus Economics metal price forecasts as of May 31, 2022, metal recoveries and smelter payable metal and treatment costs generalized from other P&E projects and a US exchange rate at 0.78. One-metre composites were generated from the assays captured within each deposit wireframe. The Mineral Resources were all classified as Inferred based on the wide drill hole spacing, level of assaying and geologic confidence in grade continuity.

铜、镍、钴、铂、钯、金矿化赋存于地表或近地表,可能适合低剥离比露天开采。四个矿床的矿化线框是根据P&E计算的露天矿运营截止冶炼厂净收益(NSR)35加元/吨的主岩岩性和矿化构建的。NSR的计算基于两年往绩平均金属价格和Consensus Economics截至2022年5月31日的金属价格预测、金属回收率和冶炼厂应付金属和处理成本,以及从其他P&E项目概括的金属和处理成本,美元汇率为0.78。从每个沉积物线框中捕获的化验结果生成了一米长的复合材料。所有矿产资源都被归类为基于宽钻孔间距、分析水平和品位连续性的地质置信度的推断。

The Hopes Advance North and Main Deposits have been considered, and reported, as one domain (Hopes Advance). The geologically similar Gamma Deposit occurs 15.5 km to the southeast in a similar stratigraphic setting as the above. The Falco 7 Deposit is 11.4 km north-northeast of this trend. All deposits have strikingly similar geology and styles of mineralization. Mineral Resources for each deposit were estimated individually using Inverse Distance Squared (1/D2) weighting of composited assay values. The drill-hole database for the Property contains 407 diamond drill holes totalling 37,262 m, of which 88 drill holes for 15,268 m have been utilized to delineate the Mineral Resources. The spacing of the drill-hole sections in the individual deposit areas ranges from 50 m to 200 m.

Hope Advance North和主要矿藏被认为是一个域(Hope Advance),并被报告为一个域。地质上相似的伽马矿床产于东南15.5公里处,其地层环境与上述相似。法尔科7号矿床位于这一趋势东北偏北11.4公里处。所有矿床具有惊人的相似地质和矿化类型。用反距离平方(1/D)法分别估算了每个矿床的矿产资源量2)综合测定值的权重。该财产的钻孔数据库包含407个钻石钻孔,总计37262米,其中88个钻孔长达15268米,用于圈定矿产资源。个别矿床区域的钻孔段间距从50米到200米不等。

The mineral deposits contain an additional Exploration Target with a potential range of 35 million tonnes to 60 million tonnes at grade ranges of 0.35% to 0.40% Cu, 0.10% to 0.20% Ni, 0.01% to 0.02% Co, 0.03 g/t to 0.05 g/t Pt, 0.15 g/t to 0.20 g/t Pd, and 0.03 g/t to 0.05 g/t Au, which equates to a 0.35% to 0.55% NiEq.

这个 矿床包含额外的勘探目标,潜在范围为3,500万吨至6,000万吨,品位范围为0.35%至0.40%铜、0.10%至0.20%镍、0.01%至0.02%钴、0.03克/吨至0.05克/吨铂、0.15克/吨至0.20克/吨钯及0.03克/吨至0.05克/吨金,相当于0.35%至0.55%镍元素。

The Exploration Target is based on the estimated strike length, depth and width of the known mineralization, which is supported by intermittent drill-holes, geophysics and observations of mineralized surface exposures. The potential quantities and grades of this Exploration Target are conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient work done by a Qualified Person to define these estimates as Mineral Resources. The Company is not treating these estimates as Mineral Resources, and readers should not place undue reliance on these estimates. Even with additional work, there is no certainty that these estimates will be classified as Mineral Resources. In addition, there is no certainty that these estimates will prove to be economically recoverable.
All of the deposits within the 50 km long Hawk Ridge Project occur within the northern portion of the New Québec Orogen (Labrador Trough), near the southwest coast of Ungava Bay, Northern Québec. The Hawk Ridge Property is underlain by Proterozoic rocks that unconformably overlie Archean cratonic rocks of the Superior Province that are exposed to the west. The Proterozoic rocks are composed of a thick sequence of marine metasedimentary and mafic metavolcanic rocks that were intruded by mafic and ultramafic sills and dykes. Regionally, these rocks have been thrust to the West onto the Superior Craton and now dip steeply to the east. Disseminated copper-nickel-PGE and gold-bearing sulphides, with narrow high-grade massive sulphide bands, are predominantly hosted in the mafic and to a minor extent by metasedimentary rocks.
Mineral Resources by Deposit are presented in the tables below.

勘探目标以已知矿化的估计走向长度、深度和宽度为基础,并以间歇性钻孔、地球物理和矿化地表裸露观测为依据。这一勘探目标的潜在数量和等级本质上是概念性的。有资格的人没有做足够的工作来将这些估计定义为矿产资源。本公司并未将这些估计视为矿产资源,读者不应过度依赖这些估计。即使有额外的工作,也不能确定这些估计是否会被归类为矿产资源。此外,不能确定这些估计将被证明在经济上是可以恢复的。
50公里长的鹰岭项目内的所有矿床都位于新魁北克造山带(拉布拉多海槽)的北部,靠近魁北克北部昂加瓦湾的西南海岸。鹰岭地产被元古界岩石覆盖,元古代岩石不整合地覆盖在暴露在西侧的苏必利尔省太古宙克拉通岩石之上。元古界岩石由一套厚厚的海相变质沉积岩和镁铁质变火山岩组成,这些岩石被镁铁质和超镁铁质岩床和岩墙侵入。在区域上,这些岩石向西推入苏必利尔克拉通,现在向东陡峭倾斜。浸染型铜镍铅和含金硫化物具有窄的高品位块状硫化物条带,主要赋存于镁铁岩中,少量赋存于变质沉积岩中。

Quality Assurance and Quality Control
The QA-QC procedures employed by Nickel North were industry standard and included collection of drill core field duplicate samples, insertion of certified reference materials (standards) and blanks, and systematic laboratory inserted certified reference materials, pulp duplicates and client specified sample pulp repeats.
The QA-QC program for Hawk Ridge 2012 to 2014 exploration was set up in advance to ensure the drill program was compliant to industry standards, and to provide the accuracy and precision of the sampling and analytical processes to an acceptable level.
Samples were received at TSL Laboratories Inc., ("TSL"), and sorted and dried prior to preparation. Drill core and rock samples were crushed using a primary jaw crusher to a minimum 70% passing -10 mesh. A 250 g subsample was pulverized to a minimum 95% passing -150 mesh. The precious metals, Au, Pd and Pt were analyzed using lead-collection fire assay with ICP finish at TSL.
Sample pulps were then shipped by commercial air freight directly to ACME Labs in Vancouver, BC for analysis of a 41-element suite, and Ni and Cu were determined by a 4-acid digest at ACME.
TSL Laboratories Inc. ("TSL") is based in Saskatoon, SK and has been in continuous operation since 1981. The TSL quality system conforms to requirements of ISO/IEC Standard 17025 guidelines, and participates in the Proficiency Testing program sponsored by the Canadian Certified Reference Materials Project. The lab has qualified for the Certificates of Laboratory Proficiency since the program's inception in 1997. TSL was recently acquired by Saskatchewan Research Council.
ACME operates 19 offices in 11 countries. At each lab, a quality system compliant with the International Standards Organization (ISO) 9001 Model for Quality Assurance and ISO/IEC 17025 General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories is implemented. The Vancouver laboratory received formal approval of its ISO/IEC 17025:2005 accreditation from the Standards Council of Canada for the tests listed in the approved scope of accreditation.

质量保证和质量控制
Nickel North采用的QA-QC程序是行业标准,包括收集钻芯现场重复样品、插入认证标准物质(标准)和空白、系统实验室插入认证标准物质、纸浆复制品和客户指定的纸浆重复样品。
鹰岭2012至2014年勘探的QA-QC计划是预先制定的,以确保钻探计划符合行业标准,并将采样和分析过程的精确度和精密度提供到可接受的水平。
样品在TSL实验室公司(“TSL”)接收,并在准备之前进行分类和干燥。钻芯和岩石样本被用初级颌式破碎机粉碎到至少70%通过-10目。250克样品被粉碎到至少95%通过-150目。贵金属Au、Pd、Pt在TSL用电感耦合等离子体光谱分析。
然后,样品纸浆通过商业空运直接运往不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华的ACME实验室进行41种元素的分析,并在ACME通过4酸消化来测定镍和铜。
TSL实验室公司(“TSL”)总部设在密苏里州萨斯卡通,自1981年以来一直在持续运营。TSL质量体系符合国际标准化组织/国际电工委员会标准17025指南的要求,并参与了由加拿大认证标准物质项目发起的能力测试计划。自1997年该计划开始以来,该实验室一直有资格获得实验室熟练程度证书。TSL最近被萨斯喀彻温省研究委员会收购。
Acme在11个国家设有19个办事处。每个实验室都实施了符合国际标准化组织9001质量保证模式和国际标准化组织/国际电工委员会17025《测试和校准实验室能力通用要求》的质量体系。温哥华实验室获得了加拿大标准委员会对其国际标准化组织/国际电工委员会17025:2005年认证的正式批准,可进行认可范围内所列的测试。
