ThreeD Capital (IDK-Cse) Premium Nickel Resources Signs Asset Purchase Agreement To Acquire Selkirk Mine In Botswana Feb 14th 2022 - NR ThreeD Capital, a Canadian-based venture capital firm focused on opportunistic investments in companies in the junior resources and disruptive technologies sectors, is pleased to announce that Premium Nickel Resources (“PNR”), a private Canadian company that provides direct exposure to nickel-copper-cobalt opportunities in the southern African region, has executed a definitive asset purchase agreement with the Liquidator of Tati Nickel Mining Company to acquire the Selkirk Mine and surrounding prospecting licenses and infrastructure in Botswana. ThreeD is a founding shareholder of PNR and currently owns approximately 9% of PNR’s total issued and outstanding common shares. Furthermore, Sheldon Inwentash, Chairman & CEO of ThreeD, is on the Board of Directors of PNR. More information on this subject can be found in PNR’s press release below: Toronto, Ontario, February 14, 2022 – Premium Nickel Resources (“PNR” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has executed a definitive asset purchase agreement (the “Selkirk APA”) with the Liquidator of Tati Nickel Mining Company (“TNMC”) to acquire the Selkirk nickel-copper-cobalt-platinum-group metals ("Ni-Cu-Co-PGM") Mine and surrounding prospecting licenses and infrastructure formerly operated by TNMC. PNR is targeting the closing of the Selkirk APA, and transfer of ownership of the asset, within 120-days. The Company has been undertaking due diligence work programs on Selkirk since being selected as the preferred bidder in the TNMC liquidation process and entering into a memorandum of understanding ("MOU") providing for a six-month exclusivity period. During the 120-day closing period, PNR will be preparing to execute a drill program with the ambition to bring the 2016 bankable feasibility study to NI 43-101 compliance. PNR CEO Keith Morrison commented, "The executed Selkirk APA together with the recent completion of the transfer of ownership of the Selebi and Selebi North Mines, completes the assets that PNR is purchasing from the BCL and TNMC liquidations in Botswana. PNR will move forward with closing of the transaction and assuming the ownership of the Selkirk Mine. The Selkirk redevelopment will be based on modern best practices and assuming conservative commodity prices." The legacy underground Selkirk Mine is situated 28 km south-east of the town of Francistown, and 75 km north of the Selebi Mines. BCL acquired Selkirk from Norilsk Nickel through a purchase agreement that was finalized in October 2014. Norilsk was preparing Selkirk as an open pit operation and had completed Definitive Feasibility Studies in 2012 and 2013. Selkirk was then advanced to a bankable feasibility in 2016 as an open pit resource, prior to the liquidation of TNMC. PNR has been diligently collecting new data, including a sampling program of HQ size core from five previously unsampled drill holes. Approximately 288 kgs of representative ore was processed as a metallurgical sample. The subsequent metallurgical testing, carried out at SGS Lakefield, confirmed the redevelopment plan to produce separate copper and nickel-cobalt concentrates and identified significant value in PGMs. The proposed work plan for Selkirk includes drilling to better define existing resources, build up a geological model, further update the structural model, exploration for additional resources and additional metallurgical studies. PNR will focus on bringing the legacy bankable feasibility back to compliance and update the environmental baseline to include a tailings management facility and dedicated processing plant to produce concentrates. About Premium Nickel Resources Corporation PNR is a Canadian company dedicated to the exploration and development of high-quality nickel-copper-cobalt (Ni-Cu-Co) resources. We believe that the medium to long-term demand for these metals will grow through continued global urbanization and the increasing replacement of internal combustion engines with electric motors. Importantly, these metals are key to a low-carbon future. PNR maintains a skilled team with strong financial, technical and operational expertise to take an asset from discovery to exploration to mining. PNR has focused its efforts on discovering world class nickel sulphide assets in jurisdictions with rule-of-law that fit a strict criteria that comply with PNR's values and principles which stand up against the highest acceptable industry standards.
