PROJECT – THE NIKOLAI PROJECT

Located in Central Alaska, the Nikolai project is a sulphide nickel and battery metal project with a multi-billion pound nickel potential.

The Nikolai project holds promising potential as a reliable domestic source of nickel for the ongoing energy transition. Based on historical drilling, there are strong indications of a significant nickel deposit and other valuable metals.

By conducting an initial drilling program that was completed in Fall 2023, we aim to establish a maiden Inferred Resource.

Our goal is to achieve this milestone by Spring 2024.

Highlights

Historical drilling, High Potential Targets

Historical drilling indicates potential for a very large accumulation of nickel and other important metals.

Several Near-Term Share Catalysts

An initial drilling program to be completed by Fall 2023 should result in a maiden Inferred Resource. If historic concentrations are proven the resource should exceed one billion pounds of contained nickel.

Key Metals For Electrification

Nickel is a key component of rechargeable batteries. The world is rapidly adopting electric vehicles, and thus the demand for nickel is growing quickly.

Well-Capitalized Company

The company is well-financed and partnered with Commodity Partners to connect the company with with quality financial backers

Pro-Resource Development State

Alaska is a pro-resource development state with efficient permitting processes and mandates the development of resources.

Key Management Team In Place

Mr. Beischer and the team of exploration geologists and support staff are experts at executing mineral exploration projects in Alaska.

Project Target

The Nikolai project hosts Ni-Cu-Co-Cr-PGE mineralization.

Several deposit types are possible:

  • Disseminated Ni-Cu-Co-Cr-PGE mineralization in serpentinized ultramafic rocks (analogy = Crawford deposit, Canada)
  • Massive sulfide Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization (analogy = Norilsk Mine, Russia)
  • Remobilized high-grade Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization
  • Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide (VMS – Besshi style) Cu (Zn-Pb) Au, Ag (analogy = Windy Craggy deposit, Canada)

Land Status

Two separate, adjacent claims blocks encompass the Nikolai project.

The Eureka claim block consists of 104 State of Alaska mining claims (6,734 hectares) and is 100% owned by Alaska Energy Metals.

The Canwell claim block consists of 42 State of Alaska mining claims (2,720 hectares), with an option to purchase 100% interest in the claims from the underlying owner. In total, the project covers 94.54 km2 (9,454 hectares).
Geology and Mineralization

The project is located within the underexplored Wrangellia Terrane of Central Alaska. A characteristic component of this terrane is the Nikolai Greenstone, an extensive sequence of low-grade metamorphosed Late Triassic flood basalt rocks. Mafic and ultramafic intrusions, the source for the Nikolai Greenstone, along with Permian and Cretaceous felsic plutons, intruded Permian volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks. Wrangellia holds high potential for the discovery of economic magmatic sulfide deposits containing nickel, copper, cobalt, platinum, palladium, iridium, rhodium, osmium, ruthenium, gold, silver, lead, and zinc. Past producing mines and known deposits within the Wrangellia include Kennecott Copper Mines, Windy Craggy, Wellgreen-Nickel Shaw, and White River.

After an initial discovery by Inco Ltd., in 1997, drilling by Pure Nickel Inc. and ITOCHU Corporation, between 2008 and 2013, resulted in the discovery of a >15km mineralized corridor (Eureka Zone) of disseminated Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization associated with serpentinized mafic and ultramafic rocks. Other exploration targets include massive sulfide Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization associated with mafic dikes cross-cutting the ultramafic sequence and remobilized high-grade Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization associated with Cretaceous intrusions. Additionally, Cu-Pb-Zn-Au-Ag mineralization has been discovered in volcaniclastic rocks that may be associated with volcanic massive sulfide mineralization.

Upcoming Exploration Program

Alaska Energy Metals has identified a zone of mineralization (1700m x 600m x 300m) at the Eureka Zone that contains potentially economic concentrations of nickel, copper, cobalt, platinum, palladium, and gold. Additionally, Alaska Energy Metals postulates that higher-grade mineralization may occur in embayment features at the base of the Eureka Zone, where heavy metals may accumulate during fractionation and crystallization of the ultramafic intrusion. Further drilling is warranted to confirm this hypothesis, along with in-fill drilling on the identified zone of mineralization with the goal of defining a NI 43-101/JORC compliant resource.

A complete data review of the Canwell claims is underway. Based on the results of this review, targets will be ranked based on current data. Additional geochemical and geophysical techniques may be conducted to prioritize drilling targets.
