SPC Nickel Intersects 0.83% Nickel and 0.19% Copper over 14.7 metres at the West Graham Project, Sudbury, Ontario

01.10.2024  |  CNW

SUDBURY, Oct. 1, 2024 - SPC Nickel Corp. (TSXV: SPC) ("SPC Nickel" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce additional diamond drill results from the ongoing 2024 Drill Program at the Company's West Graham Project ("West Graham" or "the Project") located in the world-class nickel-copper mining district of Sudbury, Ontario (Figure 1).

Assay results from an additional 7 holes have been received and are reported here. To date, assay results for 19 (1,152 metres) of the 33 holes (2,240 metres) completed have been received and reported. Significant results are presented below in Table 1. A summary table of drill results from the 2024 Drill Program at West Graham may be found on our website, here.

Highlights:

  • Hole WG-24-101, intersected 0.83% Ni and 0.19% Cu over 14.7 metres from 35.0 to 49.7 metres. This interval is part of a wider interval that returned 0.53% Ni and 0.18% Cu over 44.0 metres from 14.0 to 58.0 metres (Table 1).
  • Hole WG-24-102, intersected 1.59% Ni and 0.15% Cu over 3.0 metres from 16.5 to 19.5 metres. This interval is part of a wider interval that returned 0.65% Ni and 0.29% Cu over 30.0 metres from 13.5 to 43.5 metres (Table 1).

Grant Mourre, CEO and President of SPC Nickel commented, "Since the publication of our Mineral Resource Estimate, SPC Nickel has remained focused on upgrading and expanding the potential we see at West Graham. Our original thesis has remained unchanged in so far as we believe we have a high-quality, near surface resource, close to infrastructure in the heart of the world's leading nickel district, representing a significant economic opportunity. These latest results continue to reinforce our confidence in the geologic and economic potential of the West Graham Project, and we will continue to advance this strategic asset. The SPC Nickel team is committed to a rigorous and methodical exploration process at West Graham that will ultimately deliver exceptional value to our shareholders."

About the West Graham Deposit

The West Graham Project is located in the heart of the Sudbury Mining District where nine mines are currently in operation and two more are in the development phase. The region benefits from its proximity to well-developed transportation infrastructure including roads, railways, and electrical grid. In addition, West Graham is situated close to processing, smelting and refining assets which include two mills, two smelters and one nickel refinery. Local operators include global mining corporations Vale, Glencore and KGHM.

In January 2024, SPC Nickel announced the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for the West Graham Project (see news release dated January 17, 2024). The MRE showed an In-Pit Resource (0.3% NiEq Cutoff Grade) of 19.3 Mt at 0.42% Ni, 0.28% Cu in the indicated category and 3.3 Mt at 0.37% Ni, 0.28% Cu in the inferred category. The Out-of-Pit Resource (0.7% NiEq Cutoff Grade) contained a further 3.2 Mt at 0.63% Ni, 0.47% Cu (0.92% NiEq) in the indicated category and 3.9 Mt at 0.69% Ni, 0.43% Cu (0.97% NiEq) in the inferred category.

Quality Assurance, Quality Control and Qualified Persons

The technical elements of this news release have been approved by Mr. Grant Mourre, P.Geo. (PGO), CEO and President of SPC Nickel Corp. and a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101.

SPC Nickel follows rigorous sampling and analytical protocols that meet or exceed industry standards. Core samples are stored in a secured area until transport in batches to the ALS facility in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. Sample batches include certified reference materials, blank, and duplicate samples that are then processed under the control of ALS. All samples were analyzed in Vancouver by ALS Chemex. Platinum, palladium, and gold values were determined together using standard lead oxide collection fire assay and ICP-AES finish. Base metal values were determined using sodium peroxide fusion and ICP-AES finish. Silver values were determined using an aqua regia digestion and an AAS finish. A Certified Reference Material (CRM) standard, blank or duplicate is inserted on every 10th sample in the following order: CRM, blank, CRM, duplicate. The cycle repeats every 40 samples, thus ensuring that 10% of samples submitted are control samples.
