Canada Nickel (TSXV: CNC) continues to insist that its flagship property, the Crawford Nickel Project, is the smallest in its portfolio, with another discovery now said to outsize the project.
The company has identified that the Mann Northwest project is more than three times the size of Crawford following the receipt of assays, with the strike length of the project now said to be 2,650 metres.
“Mann Northwest has a target footprint more than three times that of Crawford and is one of eleven properties with a target footprint larger than Crawford. Three additional holes extended the strike length of mineralization by more than 1,100 metres to 2,650 metres, and assays from first five holes confirmed grades in line with expectations,” commented CEO Mark Selby.

Highlights from the results include:
- MAN23-02: 0.23% nickel over 348.5 metres
- MAN23-03: 0.23% nickel over 291.5 metres
