Cumberland Resources Stakes 44 Prospective Claims in Ontario

Toronto, Ontario—November 11th – Cumberland Resources Nickel Corp. (CSE: LAND) (the

"Company" or "Cumberland") is pleased to announce the successful staking of 44 single-cell

unpatented mining claims, totaling approximately 800 hectares, in Darling Township,

southeastern Ontario, located about 300 km east-northeast of Toronto. The area offers excellent

infrastructure, including hydroelectric power, accessible road networks, and proximity to a

highly skilled workforce.

According to the Ontario Geological Survey’s Ontario Mineral Inventory (OMI), there are nine

documented occurrences of antimony (in association with copper, gold and silver) within Darling

Township and in adjacent Lavant Township, although some are on private land and/or pre-

existing mining claims. The Lavant-Darling antimony occurrences are hosted within the

Robertson Lake Shear Zone.

Recent reports indicate the presence of tetrahedrite, an antimony-bearing mineral, on

Cumberland’s newly staked southern claim block. In addition, occurrences of other valuable

metals, such as gold, silver, and copper, are also found in proximity to the Cumberland claims,

underscoring the area’s mineral potential.

Cumberland’s CEO Kelly Abbott stated, “Antimony is a critical mineral in the production of

energy storage and defense technologies, and the ongoing geopolitical tensions underscore the

importance of securing reliable sources outside of current major producers. Our recent claims in

Darling Township not only highlight Cumberland’s dedication to advancing critical mineral

exploration in North America but also position us to potentially play a significant role in

supplying this increasingly strategic resource.”
