Growing Demand for Nickel-Containing Lithium-Ion Batteries
Demand for lithium-ion batteries currently consumes 8% of the 2.7 million tonne global nickel production. Only 42%, or 1 million tonnes, of this nickel is estimated to be suitable for the battery supply chain. With demand rapidly outstripping supply, Power Nickel is well-positioned to provide high-grade nickel suitable for the battery supply chain and help develop the next generation of electric technologies.
Power Nickel is poised to supply high-grade nickel to the growing electric vehicle market
Our flagship nickel project NISK, located in Quebec, Canada, is well-placed to supply high-grade nickel to the growing North American market for lithium-ion batteries. With mineralizations for Nickel, Copper, Cobalt, Palladium and Platinum, NISK is being developed to meet the demand for multiple battery metals.

3% Copaquire Royalty
Copaquire is a Copper Moly deposit held by Teck Resources. Located in Chile, Copaquire adjoins Teck's nearly-depleted Quebrada Blanca copper mine and is expected to be brought into production in the near future. Upon production, this 3% royalty will provide Power Nickel subsidiary Consolidation Gold and Copper with recurring cashflow.
