North American Nickel Reveals New Spotty Hill Assays

North American Nickel Inc. (TSXV:NAN,OTCBB:WSCRF) announced new assay results from the Spotty Hill prospect, which is part of the Imiak Hill Complex, located at the company’s Greenland-based Maniitsoq project.

Highlights include:

• MQ-14-062 (Spotty Hill): 8.55 metres of 2.98% Ni, 0.59% Cu, 0.10% Co and 0.86 g/t Pt+Pd+Au of semi massive to massive nickel sulphides within a broader disseminated zone of 0.61% Ni and 0.16% Cu over 66 metres.
• MQ-14-065 (Spotty Hill): 10.6 metres of 1.69% Ni, 0.34% Cu, 0.05% Co and 0.50 g/t Pt+Pd+Au of semi massive nickel sulphides within a broader disseminated zone of 0.59% Ni and 0.16% Cu over 73.49 metres.

Mark Fedikow, president and interim CEO of North American Nickel, commented:

This confirmation of multiple high grade semi-massive to massive nickel sulphide intersections at Spotty Hill, which also contain appreciable values of copper, cobalt and precious metals, is very encouraging and enhances the potential of the much larger disseminated sulphide zone. The electromagnetic conductors associated with these near surface intersections of semi-massive to massive nickel sulphides are open and have a strong potential to be further extended at depth. We look forward to drilling them in 2015.

Additionally, we look forward to the future assays results from the regional targets: P-013, P-030 and P-053 and additional drilling at Imiak Hill and Mikissoq where drilling in 2014 intersected heavily disseminated to massive sulphides.
