Flying Nickel and Nevada Vanadium Announces Change

in Financial Year End and Provides Update on the Plan of

Arrangement

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, December 29, 2022 – Flying Nickel Mining Corp. (TSX-V:

FLYN; OTCQB: FLYNF) (“Flying Nickel”) and Nevada Vanadium Mining Corp. (formerly 1324825

B.C. Ltd.) (“Nevada Vanadium”) announces that they are changing their financial year end from

December 31 to March 31. As a result, both Flying Nickel and Nevada Vanadium will file an

additional interim report as at December 31, 2022 and will report audited financial results for a

15-month transition year from January 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023 (with a comparative of the 12

months ended December 31, 2021). Afterwards, both Flying Nickel and Nevada Vanadium will

revert to a customary reporting calendar based on a March 31 year-end, with fiscal quarters

ending on the last day of June, September, December and March each year.

This change of financial year-end facilitates the audit process given the great demand for audit

services with the December 31 year end.

The TSX Venture Exchange Inc. has in no way passed upon the merits of the proposed transaction and

has neither approved nor disapproved the contents of this news release.

This news release contains certain “forward-looking statements” and “forward-looking information” under

applicable Canadian and United States securities laws concerning the business, operations and financial

performance and condition of each of Flying Nickel and Nevada Vanadium (collectively, the

“Corporations”). Forward-looking statements and forward-looking information include, but are not limited

to, statements with respect to the terms and completion of the Transaction. Except for statements of

historical fact relating to Nevada Vanadium and Flying Nickel, certain information contained herein

constitutes forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are frequently characterized by words

such as “anticipates,” “may,” “can,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “targets,” “intends,”

“likely,” “will,” “should,” “to be”, “potential” and other similar words, or statements that certain events or

conditions “may”, “should” or “will” occur, including, without limitation, that all conditions precedent to the

Transaction will be met and the realization of the anticipated benefits derived therefrom for shareholders of

Nevada Vanadium and Flying Nickel and the view on (i) the quality and the potential of Nevada Vanadium's

and Flying Nickel’s respective’ assets, (ii) the consideration offered to Nevada Vanadium’s shareholders,

and (iii) the potential of the Resulting Issuer. Forward-looking statements are based on the opinions and

estimates of management of each of Nevada Vanadium and Flying Nickel at the date the statements are

made, and are based on a number of assumptions and subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties and

other factors that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-

looking statements. Many of these assumptions are based on factors and events that are not within the

control of Nevada Vanadium and Flying Nickel, there is no assurance they will prove to be correct and are

not guarantees of future performance and actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-

looking statements.

Factors that could cause actual results to vary materially from results anticipated by such forward -looking

statements include changes in market conditions; cash flow; risks relating to the availability and timeliness

of regulatory and governmental approvals; shareholder approval of the Transaction; supply of, and demand

for, battery metals such as Nickel and Vanadium; fluctuating commodity prices and currency exchange

rates, the possibility of cost overruns or unanticipated costs and expenses, labour disputes and other risks

of the mining industry.

These factors are discussed in greater detail in Flying Nickel’s most recent MD&A filed on SEDAR, which

also provide additional general assumptions in connection with these statements, and in Nevada

Vanadium’s most recent MD&A filed on SEDAR, which also provide additional general assumptions in

connection with these statements. Nevada Vanadium and Flying Nickel caution that the foregoing list of

important factors is not exhaustive. Investors and others who base themselves on forward-looking

statements contained herein should carefully consider the above factors as well as the uncertainties they

represent and the risk they entail. Nevada Vanadium and Flying Nickel believe that the expectations

reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these

expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this news release

should not be unduly relied upon. These statements speak only as of the date of this news release.

Although Nevada Vanadium and Flying Nickel have attempted to identify important factors that could cause

actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements,

there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be anticipated, estimated or intended.

There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and

future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Nevada Vanadium and

Flying Nickel undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether

as a result of new information, future events or otherwise except as required by applicable securities laws.

The reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Statements concerning

mineral reserve and resource estimates may also be deemed to constitute forward-looking statements to

the extent they involve estimates of the mineralization that will be encountered as the property is developed.

Further, Nevada Vanadium and Flying Nickel may make changes to the terms of the Transaction, and their

respective business plans that could affect results.
