The demand for copper is expected to grow nearly 600 percent to 5.4 million by 2030, according to Goldman Sachs. This rapidly growing demand for copper comes after copper futures hit the world’s highest prices in July 2021. Copper has a wide range of valuable market applications, including CO2 conversion, killing cancer cells, wind power and even the fight against COVID-19.
However, the majority of the demand growth for copper isn’t expected to come from those sectors –– it’s projected to come from the rise in electric vehicles. Specifically, a single electric vehicle requires 60 to 90 kilograms of copper compared to 23 kilograms for a gasoline-powered car. With the electric vehicle market expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 33.6 percent from 2020 to reach nearly $2.5 trillion by 2027, the associated copper market and its rising prices will likely be of significant interest to investors.
Bam Bam Resources Corp. (CSE: BBR / OTC: NPEZF / FSE: 4NPB) (“Bam Bam” or the “Company”) is a mineral company focused on acquiring, exploring, and developing a portfolio of highly prospective copper properties with high-grade potential in North America. The Company’s project is located in Nevada which is one of the top mining jurisdictions in the world and is led by a highly experienced management team with decades of experience in the finance and mining industries.
“Our best grade so far on the drill program that we ran last year is in the oxide copper – we got 2.4 percent (copper equivalent) from surface to 146 feet. That’s a significant hole and that’s a pretty significant starting point. So, we know that the oxide cap could potentially be quite rich and it has some pretty good depth as well. Now our plan is to define and increase the known mineralization in the oxide cap and publish an updated NI43-101 that will be released after the drill program is completed. “This will provide an updated report reflecting the improved understanding of the geology, size, and potential scale of the Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper System”, said VP of Communications, Joel Warawa.
The Company’s flagship Majuba Hill project is located in the mining-friendly region of Pershing County in Nevada in the United States and is 120 miles northeast of Tesla’s Giga factory. The project is a high-grade copper-silver porphyry deposit that also features gold mineralization. Majuba Hill also has a proven history of successful exploration and strong production throughout the years but is still considered to be largely unexplored.
Majuba Hill has outcropping oxide copper mineralization at the surface. The total potential for the project is over 1 billion tons of sulfide oxide mineralization with grades of 0.4 to 0.5 percent for copper, 10-14 g/t of silver and 0.17-0.25 g/t of gold. Surface sampling on Majuba Hill found copper as high as 7.1 percent and silver as high as 3 oz/t. Outcrop rock sampling also found 3 to 10 g/t of gold within the copper zones.
The Company completed a successful multi-phase drilling program on the Majuba Hill project in 2020. The extensive exploration drilling program outlined an oxide copper-silver mineralization body and additional new copper porphyry target areas with the potential to expand the mineralization. Results from this program point to a potentially large and economically significant underlying sulfide deposit.
In September 2021, the Company announced that it expanded its land position by more than 300 percent for the Majuba Hill project to a total size of 15.1 square miles or 39.2 square kilometres. This incredible accomplishment vastly increased the project’s tonnage potential from 500 million tons to over 1 billion tons. The Company strongly believes that Majuba Hill has the potential to be a district size property which could further increase the asset’s resource and overall value.
The Company is fully funded for its 2021 to 2022 expanded exploration program. The exploration program includes step-out and in-fill drilling to extend the tonnage of the oxide cap and expand the scale of the sulfide deposit. The soil sampling coverage has been increased by 100% with assay results currently pending. Going forward, Bam Bam plans to continue the systematic. Phased exploration with soil and rock sampling, geophysics, and drill results.
The flagship Majuba Hill is a high-grade copper-silver porphyry project that features gold. It is located in the mining-friendly region of Pershing County in Nevada in the United States. The project is located 120 miles northeast of Tesla’s Giga factory. Bam Bam controls 100 percent of the Majuba Hill Project with extensive mineral and surface rights held by private ownerships, patented mining claims, and Federal Lode Mining claims. The property is accessible all year round through roads and features a favourable physical setting and climate.
Majuba Hill has had historic exploration dating back to the early 1900s with production continuing into the 1950s. Historic production in and around the project includes 2.8 million pounds of copper, 184,000 ounces of silver, 21,000 pounds of tin, 5,800 ounces of gold as well as lead and zinc reported. Majuba Hill has outcropping copper mineralization in the oxide cap. Today, the total potential for the project is more than 1 billion tons of sulfide oxide mineralization at grades as high as 0.4-0.6 percent of copper, 10-14 g/t of silver and 0.17-0.25 g/t of gold based on historic drillings. Surface sampling on Majuba Hill found copper as high as 7.2 percent and silver as high as 3 oz/t.
Bam Bam has conducted drilling, wide spread Drone Magnetic surveys, 3D GIS modeling, rock and soil sampling and deep IP/Resistivity geophysics at Majuba Hill. The Company recently completed a multi-phase drilling program on the property in 2020 that identified an oxide copper-silver mineralization body and target areas with the potential to significantly expand the mineralization prospect. The 2021 to 2022 exploration program is currently underway, including soil sampling which has already begun and drilling which is set to begin shortly.

The Company has engaged EM Strategies-A Westland Resources Inc. Company provide long-range environmental planning services. Development logistics can use the 4 lane Interstate 80 highway, Union Pacific railroad tracks and power, natural gas, and fiber optic transmission lines in the rail – highway corridor.
Quality Assurance/Quality Control ("QA/QC") Measures, Chain of Custody
The Company has a QA/QC program using best industry practices in place at the Majuba Hill Project. The samples are transported from the BBR secure warehouse or directly from the project to the ALS Sample Prep Facility in Reno or Elko, Nevada. ALS then transports the prepared pulps to their analytical lab in Reno, Nevada or Vancouver, B.C. Soil and rock chip samples are transported by the company directly to Elko or Reno, Nevada.
Drill core samples are sawn in half lengthwise and one half is placed in labeled cloth sample bags. All samples are analyzed for copper, gold, silver, and 33 other elements. Gold is determined by ALS method Au-AA23 which is a fire assay with an AAS finish on a 30 gram split. Copper, silver and the remaining 31 elements are determined by ALS method ME-ICP61 which is a four acid digestion and ICP-AES assay. Approximately 5% of the submitted samples are drill duplicates and copper-gold-porphyry commercial standard reference material pulps.

David Greenway, President and CEO, commented: "We are thrilled about the discovery of granodiorite porphyry underlying areas with drill results of significant copper. This discovery strongly supports that Majuba Hill is a District size copper deposit with a billion-ton potential."
Results
Bam Bam drilled 4,541.4 meters (14,900 ft) in 15 RC holes and 859.4 meters (2,820 ft) in 2 core holes during the 2021 drilling program. All intervals were assayed for total copper that was determined using a four-acid digestion process and analyzed by ALS Method ME-ICP61.
Core holes MHB-20 and MHB-22 discovered the widespread extent of the granodiorite intrusive. The core holes were located to drill into the Copper-Gold soils Target which is coincident with a large remanently magnetic zone that surrounds the Rhyolite Intrusive Assemblage Rocks at Majuba Hill. A deep, northeast-trending Induced Polarization (IP) high also crosses the Copper-Gold Target.
Multiple overlapping porphyry alteration events that were identified throughout the previous drilling and historical work were noted also noted throughout the granodiorite core. In addition to widespread propylitic and phyllic alteration their appears to be extensive potassic alteration and magnetite bearing quartz veining. A second type of tourmaline has also been noted.
These all indicate the granodiorite is probably related to the magma chamber that produced the copper at Majuba Hill. The cross-cutting relationship of the granodiorite and the rhyolite intrusive rocks combined with the magnetic anomalies and the widespread IP geophysics indicate very high potential for a large, copper porphyry at Majuba Hill.

Bam Bam drilled 4,541.4 meters (14,900 ft) in 15 RC holes and 859.4 meters (2,820 ft) in 2 core holes. Results are listed for copper, silver, gold, molybdenum, and zinc on the table at the end of this news release. For each drill hole, the total, length-weighted average values of each element is shown. Significant intervals are also listed. These are based on zones with a minimum of 4.6 m (15 ft) with a minimum of 0.16% Cu. All assays are total copper and were determined using a four-acid digestion process and analyzed by ALS Method ME-ICP61.
Significant Results
The 2021 RC drilling program was designed to in-fill and extend the 2020 Bam Bam drilling and historic holes. Using 3D modeling and cross-sectional evaluation the company focused in the mineralized zones including MHB-2 with:
CuEq=Length-weighted silver converted to copper using US$17/oz Ag & US$2.50/lb. Cu
in the copper-enriched oxide zone. And historic drill hole MMX-24 with:
in the copper-enriched oxide and sulfide zone.
The total contained copper values for all the significant holes is very encouraging because everything drilled had copper. Pending future metallurgical work and resource modeling considerations these data will be parsed out using rigorous evaluation parameters.
MHB-10, and -24
Holes MHB-10 and MHB-24 returned results that are encouraging because the significant intervals filled in and tied together two 0.3% Cu grade shells constructed in 2020. The holes also outline a much larger plus 0.16% Cu zone (see Section 4503040N).
Significant gold from MHB-10 includes:
MHB-14, -15, -18, -21, and -23
Holes MHB-14, -15, -18, -21, and -23 are significant extension drill holes.
MHB-15 and MHB-21 extend the copper mineralization deeper (MHB-21) and northward (MHB-15). MHB-21 had some very high copper within a zone that returned:
MHB-14 and MHB-18 intersected mineralization shallower and west of the middle 0.3% Cu grade shell that the holes were targeting. These results outline more mineralization which will be included in the modeling and appear to tie together the middle copper zone with the historically mined mineral zones.
MHB-14 returned:
MHB-18 is within the high gold corridor and returned:
MHB-23 extended the 2020 0.3% Cu shell northward where it intersected:
MHB-17
Hole MHB-17 did not intersect the expected subvolcanic intrusive rock outcropping at the surface. However, the hole intersected significant intervals of copper and gold which may be pointing towards an additional near-surface zone of copper as well as a second gold corridor. MHB-17 results include:
MHB-20 and -22
Core holes MHB-20 and MHB-22 discovered the previously unknown intrusive. The holes were located to drill into the Copper-Gold soils Target which is coincident with a much larger anomalous remanent magnetic zone identified from the drone magnetic survey in 2021. A deep, northeast-trending Induced Polarization (IP) high also crosses the zone.
Initial reporting identified the intrusive as diorite intrusive. Detailed logging on sawn core clearly indicates that it is granodiorite intrusive. The rhyolite intrusive, which hosts mineralization in the historic mine areas at Majuba and drilled by the RC during 2021, have been logged in a cross-cutting relationship with the granodiorite. Ongoing-detailed logging, thin-section work, and detailed slab-core examination is in-progress to determine the exact relationship between the two intrusive types.
Multiple overlapping porphyry alteration events that have been identified throughout the previous drilling and historical work were noted throughout the granodiorite core. In addition to widespread propylitic and phyllic alteration their appears to be extensive potassic alteration and magnetite bearing quartz veining. Additionally, a second type of tourmaline has been noted. These all indicate the granodiorite is probably related to the magma chamber that produced the copper at Majuba Hill.
The relationship of the granodiorite and the rhyolite intrusives combined with the widespread IP geophysics indicate very high potential for a large, copper porphyry at Majuba Hill.

Summary Discussion of Results
The 2021 drilling results continue to expand on previous Bam Bam drilling and historic drill results. The zones of widespread copper oxide and sulfide enrichment combined with the newly discovered, underlying porphyry-altered granodiorite intrusive strongly outline the potential for Majuba Hill to be a billion ton copper, silver, gold porphyry deposit.
Mineralization is centered within a large contiguous land position. Bam Bam has 100% control of the emerging Majuba Hill Copper District by private ownership, patented mining claims, and Federal Lode Mining claims.
The property is in Nevada, a Tier 1 mining district that is the most mining friendly place in North America and has well developed transportation, power, and workforce infrastructure. Majuba is easily reached by 23 miles of well-maintained roads leading from U.S. Interstate 80. The existing highways are sufficient for transportation of exploration-size heavy equipment. Development logistics would use the 4 lane Interstate 80 highway, Union Pacific railroad tracks and power, natural gas, and fiber optic transmission lines in the rail – highway corridor.
David Greenway, President and CEO, commented: "With copper at all-time highs, Bam Bam anticipates growing into a mid-tier with Majuba moving from a discovery play into a resource development project. Copper use continues to grow and projects the size of Majuba in safe jurisdictions are needed to meet world demands."

May 31, 2022 TheNewswire – CALGARY, ALBERTA CMX Gold & Silver Corp. ( CSE:CXC ) ; (CNSX:CXC.CN); ( OTC:CXXMF ) ("CMX" or the "Company") announces that it has signed an agreement with Sulphide Remediation Inc. ("SRI") ( https:www.sulphide-remediation.com ), an affiliate of ABH Engineering Inc. of Surrey, B.C., a firm specializing in mineral processing ( https:www.abhengineeringinc.com ). SRI utilizes precision ore sorting technology to high-grade mine stockpiles of unprocessed rock to enhance the grade of material delivered to a toll mill. Dual Energy X-Ray Transmission technologies differentiate between rocks based on small fluctuations in density profiles and are effective at removing sulphides and concentrating valuable metals. The sorted rock can be treated at existing millssmelters where valuable metals will be extracted and sulphides will be safely handled. SRI has some of the world's leading experts in crushing, screening and ore sorting.
Pursuant to the agreement with CMX, SRI will take samples from the Clayton stockpile with no upfront cost to CMX. The samples will be shipped to a laboratory for analysis and process testing. The testing program will inform SRI as to the best ore sorting process for the Company's stockpile. Jan Alston, President & CEO of CMX commented: "Ever since we completed an evaluation program of the Clayton Silver Mine stockpile in 2014/15, the results suggested there should be significant value realized from processing the material. Higher metals prices today add even more value to the aboveground material. We simply needed to find the right partner with the best technology for this opportunity."
CMX's historic Clayton Silver Mine stockpile is estimated to contain greater than 500,000 tonnes of metal-bearing rock. In the 2014 evaluation program, over 3,000 kilograms of sample material were collected from test locations selected to ensure representative results. Analysis of the samples confirmed the presence of gold in each sample. In particular, assays confirmed gold values up to 2.84 gm/t with an average of 0.80 gm/t for the 16 locations comprised of the initial suite of samples. Statistical averages of the 16 locations of the mine stockpile sampling program were: gold – 0.80 gms/t; silver – 24.31 gms/t; lead – 0.44%; zinc – 0.27%.
Subject to positive results from analysis of the samples taken from the stockpile and confirmation of suitability of the material for the ore sorting process, SRI at its cost will construct and deliver an optimal ore sorting system to the Clayton Mine site. The system will be capable of processing from 3,000 tonnes to 4,000 tonnes per day. SRI will manage all aspects of the stockpile processing program. After deducting operating expenses from the revenue received for the processed stockpile material from the toll mill or smelter, the net profits will be shared 50:50 between CMX and SRI. Mr. Alston stated: "Positive results will position CMX to generate cash flow in 2023."
About the Clayton Silver Project
CMX's 100%-owned Clayton Silver Property is located in the mining-friendly State of Idaho, USA. The property comprises approximately 684 acres in Custer County in south-central Idaho, including the former Clayton silver-lead-zinc mine. The Clayton Mine was developed on eight levels to a depth of 1,100 feet below surface and is comprised of approximately 19,690 feet of underground development. Two major ore bodies were partially mined: the "South Ore Body" and the "North Ore Body".
The recorded production from the Clayton Mine included 7,031,110 oz silver, 86,771,527 lbs lead, 28,172,211 lbs zinc, 1,664,177 lbs copper, and minor amounts of gold from an estimated 2,145,652 tonnes of ore mined between 1934 and 1985. Very little exploration has been carried out previously on the Clayton Silver Property. Significant potential is demonstrated in hole 1501-A, drilled in the mid-1960's, which penetrated the mineralized zone at 1,425 feet. At that depth, the hole intercepted 22 feet of 4.07 oz Ag/t, 5.75% lead and 5.37% zinc (note: true width is unknown).

HIGHLIGHTS
Discussions with multiple global metal traders and smelters have commenced regarding future offtake for the zinc and copper concentrates to be produced at the Superior Lake Project
Forecasted annual production of 69,819t of Zn and 5,308t of Cu concentrate per annum.
Both the zinc and copper concentrates are of a high quality with favorable grades and minimal deleterious elements (Table 1 and Table 2)
The Project has established transportation routes to North American and international smelters, giving the Project its unique location 30km from an operating rail terminal (Image 1)
The market outlook for zinc is strong, due to declining production from existing primary zinc mines, and increased forecasts on long-term demand driven by decarbonization
May 31, 2022 – TheNewswire – Metallum Resources Inc. (TSXV:MZN) ( "Metallum" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the commencement of discussions with multiple global metal traders regarding future offtake from the Company's Superior Lake Zinc and Copper Project ("Project") in Ontario, Canada.
Preliminary discussions with a number of these groups have indicated a willingness to have offtake linked to additional funding solutions. An offtake related financing is typically in the form of mezzanine debt or concentrate pre-payments.

Image 1: Location of Zinc smelter in north America and transportation routes
The concentrate produced at Superior Lake can access smelters using existing rail and road infrastructure to North American smelters as well as smelters in Asia, using the Vancouver port. The Thunder Bay port, which is located 214km from the mine gate, will provide access to smelters in Europe. The Project's unique location and access to the Canadian rail and highway network will provide access to Canadian port systems, both East and West coasts, allowing easy access to major smelters around the globe.
Both the Zinc and Copper concentrates are well understood given the Project successfully operated for a decade before closing in 1998 due to sustained low zinc prices. This historical production as well as additional metallurgical test work carried out by SGS Lakefield in Canada (Superior Zinc and Copper Project Feasibility Study N.I. 43-101 compatible, DRA – October 2021), provides detailed information and certainty to these groups. Detailed information regarding the concentrate grades and quality can be found in Table 1 below.

Tartisan Nickel Corp. (CSE: TN) (OTCQX: TTSRF) (FSE: 8TA) ("Tartisan", or the "Company") is pleased to announce that environmental baseline studies have commenced at the Kenbridge Nickel Project, Kenora Mining District, Northwestern Ontario.
Tartisan has retained Knight Piesold Consulting ("KP") and Blue Heron Environmental ("BH") to carry out these time sensitive studies. Spring 2022 environmental baseline studies are critical to the advancement of the Project and the permitting and approvals process for the Kenbridge Nickel Project.
Tartisan Nickel Corp. CEO Mark Appleby commented, "Commencement of Baseline Studies is an important next step in the advancement of the Kenbridge Nickel Project. The Company is now reviewing all necessary steps in the permitting and approval process and we look forward to additionally updating shareholders on our proposed summer work program in the coming weeks".

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 31st, 2022 / Victory Resources Corporation (CSE:VR)(FWB:VR61)(OTC PINK:VRCFF) ("Victory" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company's exploration team has received lab results from its phase one, three of 15-hole drill program and as a result of its analysis has staked additional ground based on its geologic model of the target lithium deposit.
"The Victory exploration team has advanced the Smokey Lithium property substantially through the analysis of lab results, and upon those strong results through the additional staking which was conducted for competitive reasons to protect the Company's interests," said Mr. Mark Ireton, Victory President, and CEO. "The Company's exploration team has advanced this property based on its theory that a significant lithium deposit is buried at depth along the adjacent Jindalee boundary margins nearest to the fault line. We want our shareholders to understand that of the three holes, one had impressive lithium values, and the other two provided important information as to the potential location and boundaries of a Li deposit. In total, the drill results from all three holes guided the additional staking so that the Company can continue to define what it believes is a significant lithium deposit buried at depth."
Phase One Drill Program Results and Analysis Highlights
Overview
Victory executed an initial program of three drill holes with the goal aimed at locating lithium-bearing clays, similar to what has been discovered at surface by Jindalee, the neighboring property.
A northeast/southwest oriented fault becomes obscure on either end as it trends into Victory's property. Victory's exploration team theorizes that an extension of the lithium bearing clays, identified by Jindalee, would likely exist under the Victory property.
Summary
Victory's Phase One drilling program produced favorable results. This initial drill program was designed to look at a wider area of the property, measure the normal fault's displacement, and prove lithium deposits in the subsurface.
Three holes were completed as previously announced: Holes 05, 09, and 15.

FPX Nickel Corp. (TSXV: FPX) (" FPX " or the " Company ") is pleased to report the results of new testing which continues to demonstrate the potential for enhanced carbon capture and storage ( "CCS" ) in tailings at its Baptiste Project (the " Project ") in the Decar Nickel District in central British Columbia . These laboratory tests, conducted by researchers from the University of British Columbia ( "UBC" ) funded by FPX and the Government of Canada were conducted on tailings representative of different operating scenarios at Baptiste, and demonstrate the ability of these representative tailings to sequester CO 2 into a permanent mineralized form, thereby advancing the Project's potential to become the nickel industry's first carbon-neutral or carbon-negative operation.
Cautionary Statement: The test results described herein are preliminary in nature and may not be representative of conditions or results in an operating environment, particularly as it pertains to the representativeness of mineralization, moisture content, changes in weather conditions, process water chemistry and tailings emplacement configuration, including the rate at which tailings are covered with fresh material, among other parameters. There is no certainty that the results reported herein will be realized in an operating environment. Further studies are recommended to expand the scale of testing to better understand the potential for carbon sequestration to be realized in an operating environment.
"Since 2016, FPX has been a leader in defining the opportunity for large-scale permanent CCS in the mining industry," commented Martin Turenne , the Company's President and CEO. "These new results were achieved using representative tailings material generated from the 2021 metallurgical testing pilot plant program, highlighting our interest in moving beyond idealized experimental conditions to advance the scientific understanding of carbon mineralization in a practical, real-world context. With further work required to estimate the likely quantum of carbon sequestration in an operational setting, we continue to advance toward our objective of developing Baptiste as the nickel industry's first carbon-neutral or carbon-negative operation."
These laboratory tests build on more than a decade of research to maximize the reaction between CO 2 and brucite (magnesium hydroxide), a highly CO 2 -reactive mineral form of magnesium hydroxide present in the Baptiste mine tailings, as opposed to serpentine, olivine and other silicates which are the common constituents of other nickel and mafic rock tailings. In a natural process called carbon mineralization, CO 2 reacts with brucite, and to a very much less extent with serpentine minerals in the Baptiste tailings and waste rock, binding the CO 2 in a benign, solid magnesium carbonate which is stable on a geological time scale.
Previous laboratory and field tests conducted by UBC researchers have confirmed the ability of Baptiste tailings material to mineralize CO 2 when exposed to air (see the Company's news releases dated February 16 and June 9, 2021 ) and when subjected to direct injection of simulated flue gas containing 10% CO 2 (see the Company's news release dated November 2 , 2021).
The laboratory-scale tests summarized herein were designed to assess the sequestration potential by injection of CO 2 gas into material representative of three types of tailings samples, as described below and shown in Figure 1. Both tailings storage scenarios are representative of tailings produced at the Project's envisioned primary grind P 80 = 300 µm.
Injection experiments were prepared by placing the three tailings samples in vertical pipes which were injected with simulated flue gas containing 10% CO 2 at a rate of 4 mL per minute over 14 days. The experiments were conducted on Baptiste pilot plant tailings material, which was generated from drill core. The experimented were completed in batches weighing approximately 0.5 kilograms, with moisture content ranging from 10 to 14%, and with brucite content of 1.3 to 1.6%, consistent with the estimated 1.5% average brucite content of the Baptiste deposit.
The key findings of the experiment are as follows:
These positive findings provide the basis for additional testing to expand the understanding and optimization of parameters affecting carbon mineralization in the Baptiste tailings, including the impacts of scale, grain size, porosity, permeability, moisture content, temperature, method of injection and concentration of CO 2 , and time. Future test work will underpin the Company's efforts to optimize these parameters in the Baptiste development plan. These results also open the possibility of mineralizing CO 2 ex-situ in waste rock, in-situ by injection of CO 2 into the host rock, or ex-situ injection of CO 2 into associated carbon-depleted waters drawn from host rocks in areas of the Decar Nickel District, or in rocks of similar type and mineralogy elsewhere in B.C. and beyond.
Samples of the test material were submitted for analysis of total inorganic carbon ( "TIC " ) at the beginning and the end of the experiments, with the increase in TIC representing the amount of CO 2 captured during the experiment.
As previously disclosed, the Company is expanding the size and scope of carbon sequestration testing, with the recent initiation of two direct air capture experiments in the third quarter of 2021:
The Company will report the results of these experiments upon the conclusion of testing in the third or fourth quarter of 2022.
Dr. Peter Bradshaw , P. Eng., FPX's Qualified Person under NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this news release.
The Company's Decar Nickel District claims cover 245 km 2 of the Mount Sidney Williams ultramafic/ophiolite complex, 90 km northwest of Fort St. James in central British Columbia . The district is a two-hour drive from Fort St. James on a high-speed logging road.
Decar hosts a greenfield discovery of nickel mineralization in the form of a naturally occurring nickel-iron alloy called awaruite (Ni 3 Fe), which is amenable to bulk-tonnage, open-pit mining. Awaruite mineralization has been identified in four target areas within this ophiolite complex, being the Baptiste Deposit, and the B, Sid and Van targets, as confirmed by drilling, petrographic examination, electron probe analyses and outcrop sampling on all four targets. Since 2010, approximately US $28 million has been spent on the exploration and development of Decar.
Of the four targets in the Decar Nickel District, the Baptiste Deposit, which was initially the most accessible and had the biggest known surface footprint, has been the focus of diamond drilling since 2010, with a total of 99 holes and 33,700 m of drilling completed. The Sid target was tested with two holes in 2010 and the B target had a single hole drilled in 2011; all three holes intersected nickel-iron alloy mineralization over wide intervals with DTR nickel grades comparable to the Baptiste Deposit. The Van target was not drill-tested at that time as bedrock exposures in the area were very poor prior to more recent logging activity. In 2021, the Company executed a maiden drilling program at Van, which has returned promising results comparable with the strongest results at Baptiste.
FPX Nickel Corp. is focused on the exploration and development of the Decar Nickel District, located in central British Columbia , and other occurrences of the same unique style of naturally occurring nickel-iron alloy mineralization known as awaruite.
