Fathom Nickel Inc. announced that the winter exploration program at the Company's 100% owned Albert Lake Project will commence during the last week of January. The geophysics team and drill contractor are expected to arrive at the Albert Lake property on or about January 29th. Drilling is expected to commence during the first week of February.

Drilling will focus on the Tremblay-Olson Claims area, approximately two km southwest of the historic Rottenstone Mine, where the Company has identified a very robust time domain electromagnetic (TDEM) conductor (see Press Release August 14, 2023) occurring on the eastern flank of a very robust multi-element-in-soil anomaly (see Press Release January 17, 2023). The 4-week drill program is anticipated to include between five and seven drillholes for a total of 2,000-2,500 meters.
