Nickel Creek Platinum

What Nickel Creek Platinum does

Nickel Creek Platinum Corp. is a Canadian mining exploration and development company whose sole focus is advancing its 100%-owned Nickel Shäw Project in Yukon Territory toward becoming what it describes as Canada's next world-class nickel sulphide mine. The asset hosts a large multi-metal resource: per its NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate effective April 3, 2023, the project contains 436,695 Ktonnes in the measured and indicated categories, comprising over 2.5 billion pounds of nickel, 1.3 billion pounds of copper, 7.0 million ounces of platinum group metals, and 137 million pounds of cobalt, with resources amenable to open-pit extraction. The company has no technology product, software, or service offering; its activities are conventional mineral exploration (drilling), resource estimation, metallurgical testing, and preparation of feasibility and permitting documentation for the Yukon Environmental and Socio-economic Assessment Board process.

The project is positioned in a logistics-favorable location, three hours west of Whitehorse via the paved Alaska Highway, with year-round access to deep-sea shipping ports in Haines and Skagway, southern Alaska. The company has entered into a Cooperation and Benefits Agreement with the Kluane First Nation establishing a joint Advisory Committee to manage exploration-phase relations and potential future joint venture initiatives. The company is also investigating carbon mineralization/sequestration potential at the related Wellgreen deposit as a potential sustainability overlay on future operations.

The business model is pre-revenue: the company currently generates no commercial revenue and funds its activities through equity financings and private placements, including recurring anchor participation from Electrum Strategic Opportunities Fund L.P., the largest shareholder. Future revenue is intended to come from nickel, copper, cobalt, and PGM concentrate sales to smelters and traders serving battery supply chains, stainless steel, and industrial end-markets. The company is publicly listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (NCP) and OTCQB (NCPCF), with a lean management team and board composed of former executives from Vale, Inco, Newmont, Homestake Mining, and other majors.

• BHP Group Limited: Global diversified miner with nickel interests (formerly Western Australia Nickel) — broad incumbent with the scale to acquire or partner on North American critical-minerals assets.
• Vale S.A. World's largest nickel producer and the previous employer of NCP's CEO — natural broad incumbent and potential strategic offtake/acquirer for any new non-Indonesian nickel sulphide project.
