Canada Nickel Company Inc. (‘Canada Nickel’ or ‘The Company’) announced assay results from the latest 34 drill holes from the Crawford area.  A further 26 holes have been drilled at Crawford with assays pending. The Crawford Nickel Sulphide Project is located in the heart of the prolific Timmins-Cochrane mining camp in Ontario, Canada, and is adjacent to well-established, major infrastructure associated with over 100 years of regional mining activity. Assays have been received from 10 holes between the existing Main Zone resource and north-westernmost extent of the geophysical anomaly, which have extended the envelope of mineralized dunite by 1.8 km from the northwest boundary of the current resource. Four additional holes from this area were previously reported in the Company's January 14, 2021 news release and a further eight holes have been drilled and have assays pending.  8 of 10 holes intersected higher grade material (>0.30% nickel) ranging in true widths of 17 to 71 metres. Holes 106A and 109 have yielded the first higher grade PGM intersections in the Main Zone mineralization – true width of 3.9 metres of 1.6 g/t PGM and 0.49% nickel, and 6.7 metres of 1.6 g/t PGM and 0.30% nickel, respectively. This area and another area 800 metres to the north with a similar geophysical footprint will be a focus of future exploration efforts to further delineate this higher grade zone of mineralization. Nine holes were completed in the lower grade section of the western side of the Crawford structure which continued to return wide, lower grade intersections. Hole 83 returned 0.23% nickel over an entire core length of 441 metres, including 6.0 metres of 0.33% nickel. Hole 80 was also mineralized over the entire core length, returning 0.23% nickel over 453 metres, including 0.37% nickel over 19.5 metres. The first two holes, previously released on January 14, 2021, in this part of the West Zone confirm wide, lower grade mineralization more than 800 metres wide. Eight holes were drilled with five of the holes intersecting the PGM zone. These additional results confirm the association of a PGM zone on the boundary of the gravity high structure which has a circumference of approximately 9.7 kilometres and borders the nickel mineralization in the Main and East Zones. Grades and true widths are consistent with previously reported drilling with higher grade intervals of 1.7 to 3.5 g/t of PGMs across true widths of 1.1 to 3.2 metres within wider intervals of 0.9 to 1.2 g/t of PGMs across true widths of 5.8 to 6.4 metres. Six holes were drilled into the North Zone, delineating nickel mineralization across a strike length of 400 metres by 200 metres wide by 400 metres deep which remains open along strike and at depth. Similar PGM grades and widths were achieved to the Main Zone and East Zone PGM grades where drill holes intersected the boundary of adjacent gravity high on the south side of the structure. Assays for three drill holes have been received which continue to successfully in-fill and upgrade the East Zone outside of the existing resource.  Mineralized intervals yielded mineralized dunite over true widths of 191 to 260 metres. The Company will continue to focus on upgrading and extending the resource at Crawford in order to deliver an updated mineral resource estimate by early 2022 to be utilized for the feasibility study expected to be completed by mid 2022. The Company will also focus on exploring the district scale potential of its regional property package.
