Fathom Nickel reports promising exploration results at Gochager Lake, prepares for autumn program

Fathom Nickel Inc

Fathom Nickel Inc (CSE:FNI, OTCQB:FNICF) CEO Ian Fraser joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion with an exploration update on the company's Gochager Lake property. The recent field program included an extensive soil geochemical survey aimed at identifying signals over the historic deposit, which can be used to locate similar deposits elsewhere on the property. Mapping and sampling of outcrops showed subsurface signals extending up to 400 metres east-northeast of the historic deposit, indicating increased complexity and potential for finding larger deposits. Fraser highlighted the presence of significant magmatic nickel, copper, and cobalt deposits. The historic Gochager Lake deposit is hosted in a gabbro, a type of mafic intrusion. The discovery of more ultramafic rock with sufficient sulphur saturation expands the potential for magmatic deposits. The exploration program also identified similar signals at the Mal Lake site, located ten kilometres southeast of Gochager Lake, suggesting a common source for the mineralization and significantly increasing the scope and potential of the area. Looking ahead, Fathom Nickel plans to establish a camp at Gochager Lake in early August, with drilling expected to begin by mid-September, following detailed data analysis and drill planning.

Westwater Resources announces major graphite sales agreement with Fiat Chrysler

Westwater Resources Inc

Westwater Resources Inc (NYSE-A:WWR) has announced a significant sales agreement with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, part of the Stellantis group of companies. This new contract is a crucial step for Westwater Resources in securing debt financing as it represents a major offtake agreement. Steve Cates, senior vice president and CFO, joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion with details of the partnership with Fiat Chrysler, a company committed to the energy transition. The contract involves supplying natural graphite anode material from Westwater's Kellyton graphite plant, covering the balance of the Phase 1 production. This agreement, combined with a previously announced contract with Korea's SK On, ensures that the company’s plant capacity is fully contracted. Cates highlighted the importance of this agreement in the context of the graphite market, which has been dominated by China for decades. Having 100% committed volumes under contract is beneficial for lenders as it reduces the risk compared to uncommitted capacity sold on the spot market. Fiat Chrysler will begin receiving supplies in 2026. In the meantime, Westwater Resources will focus on securing financing, selecting a lender, and continuing with the construction of Phase 1. The company is also looking ahead to Phase 2, with partial volumes already under contract and ongoing efforts to engage additional customers.

Northstar Gold advances exploration with successful funding and promising drill targets

Northstar Gold Corp.

Northstar Gold Corp. (CSE:NSG) CEO Brian Fowler joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has successfully closed the first tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement generating aggregate gross proceeds of $254,820.03. Additionally, Northstar has received further orders and anticipates closing a second tranche in the near future. Fowler detailed that the gross proceeds will be predominantly utilized to fund Critical Minerals exploration and conduct diamond drilling on a newly defined, 350-meter-long, 200 Siemens near-surface EM conductor. This conductor is located 600 to 900 meters southeast and along the strike from the historic, high-grade Cam Copper Mine on Northstar’s Miller Copper-Gold Property. Moreover, the company has made significant strides in its prospecting and sampling efforts. Recent activities southeast and along the newly defined Zone 2 Extension EM Conductor have yielded VMS-style copper and silver values ranging from 12.5% to 17.9% Cu and 10.3 g/t to 17 g/t Ag, respectively. These results were obtained from a historic, 20-meter-long trench and muck pile situated 450 meters southeast of Northstar’s Cam Copper Mine and in proximity to recent high-grade copper drill hole intercepts. These promising findings suggest a higher concentration of chalcopyrite and potential zone expansion at depth, indicating proximity to possible VMS vent areas. Northstar is strategically positioning itself to drill test the Zone 2 Extension Conductor in Q3, 2024, aiming to capitalize on these encouraging exploration results and further advance its exploration initiatives.

Hillacre, a key spokesperson for Standard Uranium, provided further details to Proactive, emphasizing that several promising drill targets have been prioritized. These targets were identified through the prospecting of conductive rock trends, as revealed by the advanced VTEM™ Plus airborne survey. The company highlighted that the designated targets aim to explore conductive corridors characterized by newly discovered radioactive graphitic fault zones, which are visible at the surface. The anticipated drilling program is expected to commence imminently, featuring a comprehensive plan that includes drilling approximately 1,000 to 1,200 meters, distributed across 5 to 7 drill holes. This program is designed to be highly results-driven, with modifications and adjustments made continuously based on the ongoing results and geological interpretations. The goal is to optimize the exploration process and enhance the likelihood of a significant uranium discovery. Contact Details Proactive Canada +1 604-688-8158 action@proactiveinvestors.com
