Nordic Nickel: Exploring District-scale Nickel Asset in Finland to Support Growing Demand


Nordic Nickel (ASX:NNL)) focuses on becoming a major supplier of sustainably sourced, traceable, high-purity class 1 nickel through its portfolio of highly prospective assets in Finland, a Tier-1 mining-friendly jurisdiction with long mining history in the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt

Nordic Nickel’s 100-percent-owned flagship Pulju Project already has a JORC-compliant resource estimate of 133.6 million metric tonnes at 278,520 tonnes of nickel and 12,650 tonnes of cobalt. The Pulju Project’s unique mineralization is amenable to a dual exploration strategy of both near-surface disseminated nickel and deeper high-grade massive sulphide lenses. The project is located in an area of known mineralization where there have been a number of major discoveries, including the 304 Mt, open-pit Ni, Cu, Au, Kevitsa Mine, owned by Swedish mining company Boliden together with the world-class 44 Mt Cu, Ni, PGE, Sakatti Deposit discovered by Anglo American. Historical drilling has been shallow with no modern geophysics applied, which Nordic Nickel has now undertaken, and has identified multiple electromagnetic anomalies to target for the current 22,000-meter drilling campaign that is underway.

The current resource estimate for the Pulju Project is based on only 5 square kilometers out of a 250-square-kilometer land package. The company is conducting a 22,000-meter drill campaign to expand the areas of known mineralization and target Sakatti-style analogues of deeper high-grade massive sulphides.

Nordic Nickel’s second project, the Maaninkajoki 3 (MJ3) asset comprises 30 square kilometers of exploration licenses and is also situated in a region of known mineralization or similar mafic/ultramafic lithologies to the nearby Sakatti deposit. The company has an earn-in agreement to acquire 75 percent of the asset as exploration continues.

Top 5 Canadian Nickel Stocks of 2025

Nickel prices have experienced volatility in the past few years due to supply and demand uncertainty.

This trend has continued into 2025, and is expected to remain in place for the year. While this environment has been tough, some nickel stocks are still thriving amid the ongoing uncertainty.

Supply is expected to outflank demand over the short term, but the longer-term outlook for the metal is strong. Demand from the electric vehicle (EV) industry is one reason nickel's outlook looks bright further into the future.

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.

However, nickel has encountered much volatility in the past few years.

Nickel Price Update: Q2 2025 in Review

After spiking above US$20,000 per metric ton (MT) in May 2024, nickel prices have experienced a downward trend, mainly remaining in the US$15,000 to US$16,000 range.

Indonesia's elevated production levels have been a primary factor contributing to these low prices, as sustained high output continues to oversupply the market. The supply surplus has had a knock-on effect, putting pressure on western producers who have been forced to slash their production to maintain profitability.

Elevated output coincides with electric vehicle (EV) demand, which is under threat as market uptake has slowed, and policy changes in the United States are expected to increase costs for consumers and lower sentiment for the vehicles.
