Victory Nickel Inc. (TSX:NI) announced that it has agreed with Vale Canada Limited that Vale’s right to earn back an interest in the Company’s Mel nickel property, located approximately 25 kilometres from Thompson, Manitoba, has now expired.

Victory Nickel earned its right to acquire 100% ownership of the Mel property, subject to Vale’s right to earn back a 51% interest (the “Back-in Right”), by spending $6 million on the project.
