About PNR
PNRL is a Canadian company dedicated to the exploration and development of
high-quality nickel copper +cobalt resources. PNRL believes that the medium to
long-term demand for these metals will continue to grow through global
urbanisation and the increasing replacement of internal combustion engines with
electric motors. Importantly, these metals are key to a low-carbon future. PNRL
maintains a skilled team with strong financial, technical and operational
expertise to take an asset from discovery to exploration to mining.
PNRL has focused its efforts on discovering world class nickel sulphide assets
in jurisdictions with rule-of-law that fit a strict criteria that comply with
PNRL's values and principles which stand up and surpass the highest acceptable
industry standards. PNRL is committed to governance through transparent
accountability and open communication within our team and our stakeholders.
On January 31, 2022, PNRL closed the acquisition of PNRL's flagship asset, the
Selebi Mine. The Selebi Mine includes two shafts, (Selebi and Selebi North
shafts) and related infrastructure (rail, power and water). Shaft sinking and
plant construction started in 1970. Mining concluded in October 2016 when the
operations were placed on care and maintenance due to a failure in the separate
and offsite processing facility. The Selebi Mine was subsequently placed under
liquidation in 2017.
The proposed work plan for the Selebi Mine includes diamond drilling which is
expected to be ongoing for up to 18 months. During that time, additional
metallurgical samples will be collected and sent for more detailed studies. The
underground infrastructure at Selebi North will be upgraded to support an
underground drilling program as well as improve health & safety.
In addition, PNRL is evaluating direct and indirect nickel asset acquisition
opportunities globally, and also: (i) holds 100% interest in the Selkirk Mining
Licence and four Prospecting Licenses in Botswana, (ii) holds a 100% interest
in the Maniitsoq property in Greenland, which is a camp-scale permitted
exploration project comprising 3,048 square kilometres covering numerous
high-grade nickel-copper + cobalt-sulphide occurrences associated with norite
and other mafic-ultramafic intrusions of the Greenland Norite Belt; (iii) holds
a 100% interest in the Post Creek/Halcyon property in Sudbury, Ontario which is
strategically located adjacent to the past producing Podolsky
copper-nickel-precious metal sulphide deposit of KGHM International Ltd.; (iv)
holds a 100% ownership of property in the Quetico region near Thunder Bay,
Ontario; and (v) is expanding its area of exploration interest into Morocco.
