Presentation details

Later today, EVNi will have the stage at the very popular Pre-PDAC Mining Showcase, hosted by Red Cloud, at the Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel. Sean Samson, EV Nickel's President & CEO will speak at 2:30pm. In addition, the team has a full slate of 1:1 meetings at the 2-day conference.

Tomorrow, EV Nickel management will host a live digital event at 11 am, to discuss the Maiden Resource Estimate for the CarLang A Zone released on Tuesday (for further detail please refer to the news release from February 28, 2023). The event will be accessible through https://my.6ix.com/uo6AqxjD

On Sunday, Sean Samson presents at a PDAC event with a nickel focus, starting at 2pm. He will speak alongside leaders from Canada Nickel (TSX-V: CNC) and Giga Metals (TSX-V: GIGA). For those attending the convention, it will take place in Room 717 at the MTCC.

Plans for the PDAC Convention

Although EVNi doesn't have a booth this year, management has a full slate of meetings over the days of the convention (mainly offsite) and will again take advantage of having so many people from our industry and our communities centralized in one place for a few days.

Also, with our research and development contractors in-town, we expect next week will be a big focus for our Clean Nickel™ strategy as well.

Looking out further, drilling continues on the High-Grade W4 Zone and we hope to begin receiving assays later in March. As has been reported, the Company is very excited about the potential of this drilling to further expand the mineralized zone, especially to the East (for further detail please refer to the news releases from February 9 and February 16, 2023).
