  Vancouver, British Columbia – TheNewswire - November 22, 2021 – Xander Resources Inc. (“Xander” or the “Company”) (TSXV:XND) (OTC:XNDRF) (FSX:1XI) is pleased to announce that further to its news release dated November 4, 2021 announcing commencement of fieldwork at its Timmins Nickel Project (the “Property”), it has contracted the services of Geotech Airborne Geophysical Surveys to carry out a 163 line-kilometre VTEM survey.
The survey is expected to be flown in late-February and will be completed over the 50 claims contiguous to Canada Nickel’s MacDiarmid Project that comprise the “South Block” of the Property (as shown in Figure 1 below) where in May 2021, Canada Nickel announced a secondary discovery through the identification of significant intersections of mineralized dunite similar to the average mineralization initially discovered at Crawford. Geophysical surveys reveal that the MacDiarmid target to be approximately 1.8 kilometres long indicating a structural footprint averaging 400 meters in width – 15% larger than Canada Nickel’s original Crawford’s Main Zone discovery i.

The objective of the geophysical survey is to build upon a historical magnetic survey which has identified magnetic targets indicative of mafic-ultramafic bodies favourable to hosting magmatic sulphides. The Company expects to have interpretations completed and initial drill targets selected shortly thereafter for drill testing.
Xander CEO Deepak Varshney, comments: "Utilizing the VTEM, with its exceptional ability to identify deep hidden structures, should provide us a much clearer picture of what targets to prioritize for our first drill program. The VTEM data will provide the final pieces to our puzzle by connecting modern geophysics with associated geological evidence as we work towards a potential important new discovery at our Timmins Project."
