Nicola Mining Inc.

TSX: NIM | OTCQB: HUSIF | FSE: HLIA

Nicola Mining Inc. announce that it has shipped concentrate produced jointly with Talisker Resources Ltd. (TSX: TSK) (OTCQX: TSKFF) (“Talisker”).  The initial shipment of concentrate was for approximately 55 dry tonnes (64 wet tonnes) that contained an estimated grade of 97.75 grams gold per tonne.  The Company is also pleased that concentrate grades have increased during the milling process, mainly attributed to the capturing of free gold via gravity and tabling processes.  The Company had announced on April 9, 2024, that it had signed a Milling Agreement with Talisker for the processing of mill feed at Nicola’s mill site, located near Merritt, British Columbia. Nicola’s Merritt Mill is a unique $30.0 million plus milling and processing facility constructed on free-hold industrial-zoned land owned 100% by the Company. The Company has secured an offtake agreement[1] with Ocean Partners UK Limited (“Ocean Partners”) to sell the concentrate on behalf of Nicola and Talisker.

The Company also announces that it is currently drilling at the Embayment Zone, after having drilled at both the West Craigmont-WP and MARB-CAS targets of the 2024 drilling exploration program. Given the significance of the program the Company will issue an update and results upon completion.
