Our flagship NISK project is an exceptionally clean source of high-grade battery metals within one of the safest jurisdictions in the world.
Located in Quebec, Canada the NISK project benefits from an abundant supply of low-carbon hydropower, shallow mineral depth and ultramafic tailings that enable the NISK project to be carbon neutral with minimal environmental impact.
- Potentially Massive Strike Length: NISK contains two distinct high grade mineralized zones. They are separated by 5.5 Kilometres. The operating thesis is that these mineralized areas are connected sub-surface, creating a potentially huge mineralized area.
- High-Grade: NISK is blessed with two high grade mineralized zones. The initial discovery NISK Main featuring high-grade class-1 nickel with intercepts including 18.5m of 2.00% NiEQ and 26.6m of 1.98% NiEQ. The Lion Discovery highlights multiple 10 Metre Plus zones with with Copper ranging as high as 8%, PGMs in excess of 22 g/t, Gold In excess of 1.6 g/t and Silver in excess of 69 g/t.
- Carbon-Neutral: Carbon capture technology using the ultramafic tailings found at NISK enables us to sequester more carbon than the project will emit during its entire operation. Read our ESG & Sustainability Report
- Low-Cost: Access to inexpensive and abundant hydropower from a Hydro-Québec substation across the road, plus generous tax incentives and a shallow mineral depth.
- World-Class Mining Jurisdiction: The Quebec and Canadian governments combined offer tax credits that cover 50% of exploration cost, which means Power Nickel can spend $2 exploring for every $1 invested.
- Established Infrastructure: NISK is located beside a major highway with a Hydro-Quebec substation across the road and a nearby town with an airport.
