Tartisan closes $500,000 flow-through financing

• On 8 Apr 2026 Tartisan closed a $500,000 flow‑through equity financing at $0.38 per share.
• The deal included a 6 % cash commission and a 6 % broker‑warrant component (78,947 warrants, one‑year expiry).
• Net proceeds will be used for eligible Canadian Exploration Expenses (CEE) on the Kenbridge Nickel‑Copper‑Cobalt project while drilling is paused for spring melt.
• CEO Mark Appleby highlighted that the financing “successfully closed this first tranche and advancing geophysics at Kenbridge” during the seasonal pause.

• Scale: The $500 k raise is modest compared with prior financings (up to $1.3 M) and does not materially change the balance sheet.
• Purpose: Funds are earmarked for CEE‑eligible work (geophysics, permitting) – a routine use of flow‑through capital for junior explorers.
• Market expectation: The company had already signaled the need for additional cash to sustain Phase 1 drilling; the market therefore anticipated a financing at roughly $0.35–$0.40 per share. Closing at $0.38 is in line with that guidance.
• Conclusion: The news is routine positive – it confirms expected capital‑raising activity, provides short‑term liquidity and does not alter the fundamental outlook for Kenbridge.

• Tartisan Nickel Corp. is a Canadian‑registered junior focused on the Kenbridge Nickel‑Copper‑Cobalt Project in Northwestern Ontario (Kenora Mining District).
• The flagship deposit hosts a shallow shaft (622 m) with multiple high‑grade intercepts (e.g., 3 m @ 2.17 % Ni, 1.45 % Cu; 5 m @ 3.02 % Ni, 1.48 % Cu).
• The company is pursuing a Phase 1 drill program (~3,600 m) to convert inferred resources to measured/indicated and test deeper extensions.
