TORONTO, June 9, 2014 /CNW/ - Royal Nickel Corporation ("RNC") (TSX: RNX) is pleased to announce that, further to its news release of June 2, 2014, it has signed a definitive agreement with the primary selling shareholders of True North Nickel Inc. ("True North") to acquire approximately 56% of True North, a private company whose main asset is a 100% interest in the West Raglan nickel sulphide project located in Quebec.

"We are excited to be adding True North's high grade sulphide nickel and PGM exploration targets at the West Raglan project to RNC's project portfolio.

The definitive agreement provides that RNC's acquisition of an approximate 56% interest in True North is for a consideration of approximately 5.6 million RNC Common Shares.

Information Concerning West Raglan Property:
Information concerning the West Raglan property in this news release is taken from sources, some of which are historical, that RNC believes to be reliable, but RNC has not verified the information and does not assume responsibility for such third party information. The proximity to two producing nickel mines does not mean the West Raglan project will obtain similar results. West Raglan is an exploration project without any current resource estimates and there is no certainty that any such estimates will ever be established.
