About North American Nickel

North American Nickel is a mineral exploration company with 100% owned
properties in Maniitsoq, Greenland, Sudbury, Ontario, and the Thompson, Manitoba
nickel belt. VMS Ventures Inc. (TSX VENTURE:VMS) owns approximately 27.5% of
NAN.


The Maniitsoq property in Greenland is a Camp scale project comprising 5,106
square km's covering numerous high-grade nickel-copper sulphide occurrences
associated with norite and other mafic-ultramafic intrusions of the Greenland
Norite Belt (GNB). The 70km plus long belt is situated along, and near, the
southwest coast of Greenland, which is pack ice free year round. 


The first two discoveries of economic mineralization at Imiak Hill and Spotty
Hill confirm the high value and potential of the GNB.


The Post Creek/Halcyon property in Sudbury is strategically located adjacent to
the producing Podolsky copper-nickel-platinum group metal deposit of Quadra FNX
Mining. The property lies along the extension of the Whistle Offset dyke
structure. Such geological structures host major Ni-Cu-PGM deposits and
producing mines within the Sudbury Camp.
