About North American Nickel
North American Nickel is a mineral exploration company with 100% owned properties in Maniitsoq,
Greenland and Ontario, Canada. In 2019 the Company became a founding shareholder in Premium
Nickel Resources ("
PNR
") a private Canadian company, to provide direct exposure to Ni-Cu-Co
opportunities in the southern African region. PNR has executed a definitive asset purchase agreement
with the Liquidator of BCL Limited to acquire the Selebi, and Selebi North nickel-copper-cobalt assets
and related infrastructure formerly operated by BCL. In addition, the Company is expanding its area of
exploration interest into Morocco.
The Maniitsoq property in Greenland is a Camp scale permitted exploration project comprising 3,048
square km covering numerous high-grade nickel-copper + cobalt sulphide occurrences associated with
norite and other mafic-ultramafic intrusions of the Greenland Norite Belt (GNB). The >75km-long belt is
situated along, and near, the southwest coast of Greenland and is accessible from the existing Seqi
deep water port with an all-year-round shipping season and hydroelectric power potential from a
quantified watershed.
The Post Creek/Halcyon property in Sudbury is strategically located adjacent to the past producing
Podolsky copper-nickel-precious metal sulphide deposit of KGHM International Ltd. The property lies
along the extension of the Whistle Offset dyke structure. Such geological structures host major Ni-Cu-
PGM deposits and producing mines within the Sudbury Camp.
The Company acquired 100% ownership of property near the southern extent of the Lingman Lake
Greenstone Belt in northwest Ontario known as Lingman Nickel and in the Quetico region near Thunder
Bay Ontario. The acquisition of these properties is part of the Company's strategy to develop a pipeline
of new nickel projects. The Company is evaluating direct and indirect nickel asset acquisition
opportunities globally.
