Canadian North Resources Inc. (CNRI) is a Canadian mining exploration and development company that owns 100% interest of the Ferguson Lake mining property in the Kivalliq Region of Nunavut, Canada. The property holds major base metals (“BM”; nickel, copper, and cobalt) and platinum group metals (“PGM”; palladium, platinum, and rhodium) mineral deposits held in 10 mining leases (96.9 square kilometres) and surrounding exploration claims (156.9 square kilometres), a total area of 253.8 square kilometers..

The mandate of CNRI is to create shareholder value from the advancement of its Ferguson Lake Project, a significant potential  BM and PGM  producer. The Ferguson Lake Project holds over 71 million tonnes containing substantial resources of copper (1,402 million pounds, Mlb), nickel (872, Mlb), cobalt (99.9 Mlb), palladium (3.20 million ounces, Moz), and platinum (0.56 Moz). These estimates are for the West Zone and the West Extension Zone that are less than 6 kilometres in length along a 15 kilometre mineralized belt. There are multiple target zones for massive sulphides and distinct low-sulfide zones for PGM mineralization.

Our management and technical teams devote their capabilities and depth of experience to the successful development of the Ferguson Lake Project. Their expertise spans across resource exploration and project development from greenfield discoveries to advanced developments, including project finance and capital markets.

Our directors and advisors bring to the project with immense competence and knowledge in technical, operational, political, and corporate social responsibilities. We maintain strong ties of communication, consultation and community engagement with the Kivalliq Inuit Association; Federal and Territorial permitting agencies, First Nations, and local hamlets in the region.

The plan is to expand the BM and PGM resource by diamond-drilling exploration for high-grade sulphide zones and low-sulfide PGM-enriched targets along the 15km long mineralized belt and other targets to expand metallurgical testing, to update the technical report, and to advance the project to preliminary economic assessment (PEA) and feasibility studies. These work plans are scheduled through 2022-23 with expectations for dedicated definition drilling, environmental studies plus metallurgical testing and development activities into 2024 and beyond.
