Carbon Storage Breakthrough for Canada Nickel

Canada Nickel Company Inc. (TSXV:CNC), a Canadian nickel exploration and development company, announced promising results from carbon capture testing at its Crawford Nickel-Cobalt Sulphide Project. The tests confirm the project's potential to store over 1 million tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) annually using an innovative in-process tailings carbonation method.

This is a major development for Canada Nickel as it positions the Crawford Project to help Canada meet its carbon reduction targets. With the ability to capture and store CO2 emissions, the project could produce nickel and cobalt with a net-zero carbon footprint. Additionally, the captured CO2 could potentially make the project eligible for significant carbon tax credits, improving project economics.

Canada Nickel expects to release a full integrated feasibility study for the Crawford Project in September 2023. Permitting remains on track for a potential construction decision by mid-2025. Canada Nickel is advancing Crawford to be a leading supplier of nickel and cobalt for the electric vehicle market. The project is also set to be the sole North American producer of chromium.

For investors, this is an optimal time to consider Canada Nickel as the company continues to derisk Crawford and create value through carbon capture innovation. The strategic investment by Anglo American earlier this year demonstrates the project's immense potential. As Canada Nickel progresses permitting and feasibility studies, the value proposition for investors will only improve.

The carbon capture successes could be a game changer, allowing for the production of net-zero nickel, cobalt and iron. The Crawford Project is on the path to be a model for sustainable and ethical critical minerals development. Investors interested in the electric vehicle revolution and carbon-neutral mining would do well to have Canada Nickel on their radar.
