Sudbury, Ontario (June 29 , 2023) . SPC Nickel Corp. (TSX-V: SPC) (“SPC Nickel” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce that it has closed the previously announced non-brokered
private placement (the “Offering”) of common shares (“Common Shares”) and flow -through
common shares (“FT Shares”).
In connection with the closing of the Offering, the Company issued an aggregate of 17,029,961

5,285,888 Common Shares at a price of $0.09 per Common Share, for gross Common Share
proceeds of $475,730.
The Company paid finder fees to certain finders that assisted with the Offering. Such finders fees
consisted of: (i) the payment of cash commissions totaling $96,547 (calculated as 6% of the gross
proceeds raised by such finders), with $21,000 of such cash commission s being settled by the
issuance of 233,333 Common Shares at a price of $0.09 per Common Share; and (ii) the issuance
of 939,180 compensation warrants (“Compensation Warrants”) (calculated as 6% of the total
number of Common Shares and/or FT Shares sold by such finders). Each Compensation Warrant
is exercisable to acquire one Common Shar e at an exercise price of $0.1 05 per Common Share

advance both the Company’s Lockerby East Project, located in the world -class Sudbury Mining
Camp, and the Company’s Muskox Property, located in Nunavut, NWT . In addition, such gross
proceeds will be used to incur Canadian Exploration Expenses ("CEE") that are "flow -through
critical mineral mining expenditures" (as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada))
on the Company's mineral properties. Proceeds from the Common Shares issued in connection
with the Offering will be used for general working capital purposes.

Venture Exchange.
Certain officers and directors of the Company participated in the Offering, which constitute s a
“related party transaction” for purposes of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority
Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). Such participation is exempt from the
valuation and minority approval requirements of MI 61 -101 by virtue of the fact that the Issuer

Shares or FT Shares subscribed for by such officers and directors is less than $2,500,000 in
