Fort St. James Plans Work Program On 100% owned

Nickel Project

30 KM From FPX Nickel Corp

Fort St James BC

Vancouver, British Columbia – September 16, 2021 - Fort St. James Nickel Corp. (TSX.V: FTJ)

(“FTJ” or the “ Company”) is pleased to announce that it is currently planning it 2021 work program

for its 100% owned Nickel Project. Located 30 KM away from FPX Nickel Corps (TSX.v :FPX) – dxxx

Project. Recent changes i n the Nickel market and in Awaruite which is a Naturally Occurring Alloy of

Nickel needed in the EV market and other have instigated significant interest in the company’s project.

“Market demand simply is not reflected in our current market cap and does not justify the asset we own 100% .

Our neighbor FPX Nickel Corp 30 Km away is making significant head way and has a market cap 10 times our

own, management decided its time to refocus our efforts on our 100% owned asset enlight of the renewed mar ket

interest and demand for Nickel.” States Steve Mynott President

Key Points:

• The Previous drilling completed by FTJ all intersected Nickel Mineralization.

• Drill holes spaced extending 1700 Meters North/ South and 500 Meters east /west.

• Drilling tested a Geophysical target that was more than Seven Kilometers in Length.

• All holes ended in Mineralization Project is Open to depth and Strike

• New Drilling program bring permitted following previous recommendations.

• Over a $1,000,000 has been spent by the company on this project to date.

• Kilometre 26 is interpreted to contain a nickel mineralized ultramafic

assemblage similar to the nearby Decar Project being explored by FPX Nickel

Corp.

The predominate target of interest on the Kilometre 26 property is ophiolite hosted disseminated nickel.

Motherlode style (ophiolite gold) mineralization constitutes a secondary objective. The Kilometre 26

property covers the juncture of two geologic terra nes. Most of the property (from near the eastern

boundary through to the western boundary) is underlain by Paleozoic Cache Creek Group rocks which are

oceanic in origin while the extreme eastern region of the claims is underlain by Mesozoic rocks of the

Quesnel Terrane which are predominantly island arc in derivation. The suture which marks this boundary

is the Pinchi Fault Zone, which in the region of the claims is predominantly north -south in orientation.

Cache Creek Group rocks in the vicinity of the Kil ometre 26 property are dominated by ultramafic

serpentinites, basalt and limestone. These rocks are interpreted to form a collage which resulted from a

series of accretions and obductions of oceanic rock (directed west to east) extending tens of kilometers in

the east west direction and several times this in the north south direction. It is the mantle derived (now

serpentinized) ultramafic units which are of interest for nickel mineralization. It is believed that these

units, which replicate in at least two distinct areas, were thrust up and over (obducted) shallower oceanic

sediments. Takla Group (Quesnel Terrane) rocks which occupy the eastern region of the claim group are

predominantly volcanic rocks.

The Kilometre 26 Project encompasses 5830.25 hectares (14,406.9 acres), located in the Omineca Mining

Division of British Colombia near the community of Fort St. James approximately two and a half hours by

highway from the city of Prince George. Due to the relatively low elevation of the Kilometre 26 property

and its excellent access, exploration programs can be carried out year-round. Kilometre 26 is accessed by

an all-season arterial logging road.
