Nuinsco Options Zig Zag Lake Project to Provide Non-Dilutive Funding to Advance its Prairie Lake Phosphate/Critical Minerals Project

09.03.2023  |  The Newswire
Nuinsco Resources Limited (“Nuinsco” or the “Company”) (CSE:NWI) today announced that it has optioned its Zig Zag Project to First Class Metals PLC (“FCM”). The option, executed on March 8, 2023, will provide the Company with additional non-dilutive funding as it increasingly focusses on its extraordinary Prairie Lake phosphate/Critical Minerals Project located near Marathon in northwestern Ontario.

The Prairie Lake project is a very large phosphate/Critical Minerals resource, superbly located in a Tier 1 mining jurisdiction in North America. It is a potential source of vital elements needed for applications in agriculture/food production, transportation, power distribution, energy storage, green technologies and a host of others. It is of immense value to a secure critical minerals supply chain; an issue identified by numerous governments and agencies in the recent past. Prairie Lake is located near the north shore of Lake Superior, putting it in close or easily accessible reach of:


- The towns of Marathon and Terrace Bay, able to supply skilled, local workforce.

- Paved Highways 17 and 11.

- Canadian Pacific Railway and Canadian National Railway networks.

- High capacity (230kV) electrical power transmission line.

- Only 50km from the Marathon deep water port project. Deep-water ports also located at Thunder Bay and Sault Ste. Marie – ready access to global markets.

Paul Jones, Nuinsco’s CEO, stated: “We are pleased with the completion of the option agreement on the Zig Zag project with First Class Metals. It will provide additional funding to allow us to further work on the Company’s Prairie Lake project with all of its potential to contribute significantly to the global phosphate/Critical Minerals supply chain.”


Terms of the deal:

FCM has an option to earn-in up to an 80% interest in the Zig Zag project mining claims. The payments for the exercise of this option include a cash component of $CAD500,000 and a share component of $CAD250,000 in FCM shares spread across approximately 3.5 years. Additionally, FCM has committed to undertake exploration related expenses on the property over the same period to a value of $CAD550,000.

                    Cash    FCM Shares        Annual Work
(CAD$) (CAD$) Commitment (CAD$)
On Signing 50,000 25,000 0.00
June 01, 2023 75,000 30,000 50,000
June 01, 2024 100,000 50,000 100,000

June 01, 2026 150,000 85,000 250,000
Total 500,000 250,000 550,000

These payments and work commitments may be accelerated at FCM’s option. Upon its completion, the Zig Zag Lake project will be owned by FCM and Nuinsco on an 80:20 basis and the parties will have deemed to enter a joint venture for the development of these mining claims. Should either party not wish to contribute to this joint venture a standard industry dilution clause shall apply. If either party dilutes to a 10% ownership interest or lower, their entire interest will automatically convert into a net smelter royalty (“NSR”) royalty, and the other party shall be the 100% owner of the Zig Zag project mining claims. Additionally, half of such NSR royalty payment may be purchased by the other party by paying a sum of $CAD 750,000.
