EV NICKEL INTERSECTS 3 NEW ZONES OF MINERALIZATION ON THE
CARLANG TREND INCLUDING HIGHEST NICKEL GRADES TO DATE &
SIGNIFICANTLYEXTENDS STRIKE LENGTH BY 7KM
• Maiden diamond drill program on CarLang B, C and E Zones intersected significant near surface mineralization
• CarLang C encountered highest grades to date on the CarLang Trend and covers an area approximately twice
the size as the Company’s CarLang A Deposit
• EV24-CAR06 intersected 241.70m grading 0.30% Ni, incl. 7.5m grading 0.56% Ni and 1.5m at 0.96% Ni
• EV24-CAR08 intersected 234.00m grading 0.28% Ni, incl. 37.50m grading 0.37% Ni, 13.50m grading 0.39% Ni
and 19.50m at 0.37% Ni
• Mineralization intersected in EV24-CAR08 appears to be magmatic in origin with 1-5% disseminated sulphide
observed in drill core
• 7 of 10 holes bottomed in targeted mineralization
• Drilling identifies 3 new zones of large-scale nickel mineralization over 7 kilometres of strike and remains
open for expansion in multiple directions
TORONTO, ON – EV NICKEL INC. (TSX-V: EVNI) (“EVNi” or the “Company”) ”) is pleased to announce exploration results
for its recently completed diamond drill program on the CarLand trend. The diamond drill program confirmed the
presence of near surface nickel mineralization equal to, or better than CarLang A over 3 new target areas including CarLang
B, CarLang C and CarLang E representing over 7 kilometres of additional strike length for th e Large Scale Style Nickel
Mineralization (see Figures 1 and 2).
Results for the newly discovered zone Carlang C Zone included the highest nickel grades to date on the CarLang trend.
The CarLang C zone covers an area of approximately 2 kilometers long by 1.5 kilometers wide (see Figure 2) and is
approximately double the area of the Company’s Carlang A zone which host its flagship deposit . The CarLang A Deposit
contains in accordance with National Instrument 43 -101, a combined Resource of 1.1B tonnes @ 0.24% Ni consisting of
an Indicated Resource of 0.5B tonnes @ 0.25% Ni and an Inferred Resource of 0.5B tonnes @ 0.23% Ni (see press release
dated February 28, 2023 and/or SEDAR filing dated April 12, 2023).

The Carlang C Zone was originally defined by Government of Ontario mapping and geophysical interpretation.
“I was confident that the diamond drill program would confirm that the hosting dunites and peridotites would extend along
the interpreted locations,” said Paul Davis, Vice President Exploration. “Intersecting the higher-grade zones in both holes
CAR06 and CAR08 is extremely exciting and indicates that there is the potential for the CarLang C area to host a significantly
higher-grade zone of nickel mineralization that could contain up to 10% to 20% more nickel covering an even a larger area
than the CarLang A Deposit. The intersection of what appears to be magmatic sulphides in hole CAR08 is also very exciting
as it indicates that there is the potential for the higher -grade nickel mineralization to be similar to a Mt. Keith Style of
sulphide of nickel mineralization within the CarLang Trend area.”
The assay results (see table 1 and table 2) for ten (10) diamond drill holes representing 2,568 metres of drill core from the
CarLang Trend were designed to define the strike extent of the interpreted dunite and peridotite units (see Figures 1 and
2).
All ten holes intersected significant , near surface widths of dunite and peridotites that are similar, or better than that
observed for the CarLang A Deposit (see press release dated February 28, 2023 and/or SEDAR filing dated April 12, 2023).
Seven (7) of the ten (10) diamond drill holes ended in the host dunites and peridotites, and did not define the basal contact
of these units.
Holes EV24-CAR06 and EV24-CAR08 intersected significantly better nickel grades than had been observed at the CarLang
A Deposit with drill intercepts of 241.70 metres grading 0.30% Ni and 234.00 metres grading 0.28% Ni, respectively.
Additional zones of higher -grade nickel mineralization were observed in both holes with EV24 -CAR06 intersecting 7.50
metres grading 0.56% Ni and 1.5 metres grading 0.96% Ni.
EV24-CAR08 intersected three separate higher-grade zones of 37.50 metres grading 0.37% Ni, 13.50 metres grading 0.39%
Ni and 19.50 metres grading 0.37% Ni with 1-5% disseminated sulfide observed in drill core.
Of significance is that both EV24-CAR06 and EV24-CAR08 bottomed in higher grade dunite/peridotite with assays of 0.27%
Ni (CAR06 250.50 to 252.00 metres) and 0.35% Ni (CAR08: 250.50 to 252.00 metres), respectively indicating that the zone
has not been closed off at depth and that the holes were still in nickel mineralization when they were stopped.
Holes EV24-CAR06 and EV24-CAR08 are approximately 1.5 kilometres apart suggesting a potentially higher-grade zone of
nickel mineralization on the western side of the CarLang C mineralized trend over this widely spaced drill area.
The Company will be completing additional work on the higher -grade intercepts including running selected samples for
Pt, Pd and Au, QEM Scan analysis to determine the type and distribution of nickel bearing minerals and developing an
exploration strategy to further explore and expand the identified higher grade nickel mineralization.
Assay QA/QC
Surface samples from EVNi sampling program on the CarLang Trend at the Shaw Dome Project are sampled and bagged
in the field and reviewed at the core logging facility located near the Shaw Dome Project. Samples are transported to
Activation Laboratories L imited (“Actlabs”) in Timmins for preparation and analysis. Samples, along with certified
standards and blanks, that are included by the Company for quality assurance and quality control, were prepared and
analyzed at the laboratories. At Actlabs, samples are crushed to 80% passing 2mm. A riffle split is pulverized to 95% passing
105 microns. Nickel, copper, cobalt, iron and sulphur are analyzed by peroxide fusion with an ICP -OES finish. These and
future assay results may vary from time to time due to re‒analysis for quality assurance and quality control.

About EV Nickel Inc.
EV Nickel’s mission is to provide the world with clean nickel from Tier 1 jurisdictions. Our projects are located within 30
km of Timmins, a developing hub of clean critical minerals for the North American battery and stainless-steel markets and
an important emerging critical mineral district for the North American efforts to bring on-shore the full vertical integration
of electric batteries and vehicles.
EV Nickel aims to play an integral part of the North American on -shoring initiative as the Company’s clean , low carbon

and initiatives which strive to bring clean critical mineral production from Canada into the North American supply chain
and globally.
In further support of this initiative, the Company has and will continue to partner with environmentally responsible and
ethical organizations from around the province and around the world to assist in developing these essential critical
minerals. EV Nick el is also eager to collaborate with all stakeholders and leading sustainable engineering, mining,
automotive and battery companies to provide this key input to support global decarbonization initiatives. The
governments of Ontario and Canada are also pro viding significant legislative, policy and financial support to help ensure
that the Timmins region becomes a leading participant in the developing North American supply chain for the clean
transition energy.
