Core Viewpoint - Tartisan Nickel Corp. has acquired eleven additional claims in the Turtle Pond Area, enhancing its property portfolio and supporting its objective of developing the Kenbridge Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project into an operating mine with a central milling facility [1][7]. Property Acquisition - The total property package now consists of 161 claims covering 3,375 hectares, fully owned by Tartisan's subsidiary Canadian Arrow Mines Limited [2]. - The newly acquired claims are located approximately 40 kilometers south of Dryden, Ontario, and 70 kilometers east of the Kenbridge project [1]. Historical Exploration and Mineralization - Previous exploration identified nickel-copper sulphide mineralization in twelve trenches along a 700-meter trend at the Glatz nickel-copper showing, with historical grab samples containing up to 1.95% Ni [3]. - In 2007, surface grab sampling produced results of 1.28% Ni and 0.26% Cu from Glatz Trench 3, and 0.39% Ni and 4.06% Cu from Trench 4 [3]. - A nickel-copper-PGE discovery on the Double E airborne VTEM anomaly was identified in 2008, with drill hole EE-09-02 intersecting 4.2 meters of 0.81% Ni and 0.52% Cu [4]. Recent Geophysical Survey - A TDEM Geophysical survey was conducted from November 28 to December 21, 2024, to determine drill targets and potential future exploration work on the Turtle Pond Project [6]. Future Exploration Plans - The company plans to formulate an exploration program consisting of surface sampling and potentially diamond drilling for 2026-27 [7].
