Tartisan Nickel drills 10.7 m of 1.58% Ni at Kenbridge

Executive Summary

• Tartisan Nickel reported intersecting a high‑grade nickel–copper zone (10.7 m @ 1.58% Ni, 0.79% Cu) including a core of 5.0 m @ 3.02% Ni, 1.48% Cu in the Kenbridge project.
• A second lower‑grade zone was also intersected (9.1 m @ 0.58% Ni, 0.20% Cu) with a sub‑interval of higher grade mineralization.
• The Phase 1 2026 drill program is ongoing, aiming to upgrade inferred resources to measured/indicated and extend the deposit down‑dip.

Key Details

• Drill Program Status: Mobilized in Dec 2025; 2,100 m drilled to date; first three targets completed; currently drilling hole KB26-210 for depth extension.
• Hole KB26-207 – Zone A: Intercept from 493.0 m to 503.7 m drill depth (10.7 m) grading 1.58% Ni, 0.79% Cu; includes 5.0 m @ 3.02% Ni, 1.48% Cu.
• Hole KB26-207 – Zone B: Intercept from 532.4 m to 541.5 m drill depth (9.1 m) grading 0.58% Ni, 0.20% Cu; includes 1.2 m @ 2.04% Ni, 0.38% Cu.
• Sampling: Core samples sent to AGAT Labs (Calgary) for analysis.
• Infrastructure: Existing shaft depth 622 m (2,042 ft) with level stations every 45 m; additional levels at 107 m and 152 m below collar.
• CEO Comment: “The phase 1 2026 drill program is well under way and will test targets to upgrade inferred resources into the measured and indicated categories as well as look to expand the deposit down dip of the existing resource.” – Mark Appleby, CEO.
