EV Nickel to Acquire Extensive Land Package near to the Langmuir Project

NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA OR TO US WIRE SERVICES

• Acquiring 1,088 claims, over almost 21,000 hectares of prospective land, from a private vendor
• New land package is located mainly in the highly prospective Shaw Dome to the north, west and south of the Company's Langmuir Project

EV Nickel Inc. (TSX-V:EVNI) ("EVNi" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it plans to acquire properties (the "Transaction") within and to the south of the Shaw Dome, spread across 12 townships (the "Acquisition Package" or the "Shaw Dome Acquisition Properties") incorporating 1,088 staked mining claims

The Acquisition Package was acquired from a privately held mineral exploration company that is arms length from EVNi (the "Vendor"). The purchase price for 100% ownership of the Acquisition Package is $350K cash (the "Cash Consideration"), $100k of which was paid to the Vendor pursuant to a letter of intent signed in 2021, plus 2.5 million EVNi shares (the "Consideration Shares") to be issued at closing of the Transaction.

The Transaction is subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Shaw Dome Acquisition Properties are clustered into three groups:

In addition to the Cash Consideration and the Consideration Shares to be paid at closing, EVNi and the Vendor will enter into a 2.75% net-smelter royalty agreement (the "Shaw Dome Royalty Agreement") with respect to the Shaw Dome property group and a 2.75%% net-smelter royalty agreement (the "Groves Royalty Agreement", together with the Shaw Dome Royalty, the "Royalty Agreements") with respect to the Groves property group. Pursuant to the Royalty Agreements, EVNi may re-purchase 50% of the royalties granted thereunder for $2,500,000 in the case of the Shaw Dome Royalty Agreement and $1,500,000 in the case of the Groves Royalty Agreement.

The Consideration Shares will be placed in escrow subject to an escrow agreement to be entered into between the Company, the Vendor and an escrow agent, pursuant to which one-third of the Consideration Shares will be released on the date that is six months following the closing date, one-third of the Consideration Shares will be released on the date that is twelve months following the closing date, one-third of the Consideration Shares will be released on the date that is eighteen months following the closing date.

Sean Samson, President, CEO of EV Nickel remarked, "This is a good step forward for EVNi, to secure more land in the Shaw Dome and set ourselves up for more exploration potential."

"We are very excited about the potential for further nickel mineralization across the Shaw Dome and look forward to expanding our exploration plans across this much larger land package, with significant discovery opportunities," said Paul Davis, VP of Exploration for EV Nickel.

The Acquisition Package is highly prospective, containing known nickel mineralization associated with ultramafic and mafic units. Exploration plans will include geophysical interpretation, geological compilation, and diamond drilling, with further plans to be provided after the transaction has closed.

Nickel Price Update: Q1 2025 in Review

Nickel prices have largely trended down since breaking US$20,000 per metric ton in May 2024.

The decline has been attributed to refined nickel oversupply, driven by high output from Indonesia, which mined an estimated 2.2 million metric tons of nickel in 2024 and accounted for more than 50 percent of global output.

The threat of US tariffs has also weighed heavily on markets that are reliant on nickel and its downstream products, such as the stainless steel and electric vehicle battery industries.

These factors pushed nickel to five year lows in the US$15,000 range in Q1.

Top 3 ASX Nickel Stocks of 2025

With its diverse applications in both technology and industry, nickel is a metal that will never go out of style.

Nickel is commonly used in alloys to create stainless steel, but more recently has found a modern use: batteries. As the electric vehicle trend gains steam, the base metal is in high demand for its role in lithium-ion batteries.

Nickel has encountered much volatility in the past few years. After spiking to record highs in 2022, the nickel price has been on a downward trend on oversupply from top-producing country Indonesia and economic uncertainty dampening demand.

Tariffs could further disrupt the nickel market going forward, but whether that's to the upside or the downside remains to be seen.

Against that backdrop, some Australian nickel companies are still making moves. Here the Investing News Network has listed the top nickel stocks on the ASX by year-to-date gains. Data was gathered using TradingView's stock screener on April 9, 2025, and all companies had market caps above AU$5 million at that time. Read on to learn more about them.
