Drilling Commences on Albert Lake Nickel/PGE Project

Saskatchewan |

Cranbrook, B.C., February 6th, 2024: Eagle Royalties Ltd. (“ER.CN”:CSE, or “Eagle Royalties”) has been informed that Fathom Nickel Inc. has recently commenced diamond drilling activity on their 100% owned Albert Lake property. According to a news release issued by Fathom on January 16th, 2024, Fathom intends to complete ~2,000m of drilling in 6-7 holes, with the majority of the target area located on mineral dispositions subject to a 2% net smelter royalty (the “Royalty”) held by Eagle Royalties (see location map, following). The Royalty may be reduced to 1% upon payment to Eagle Royalties of CDN $1,000,000. The current drill program will focus on the Tremblay-Olson Claims area, approximately two km southwest of the historic Rottenstone Mine, where Fathom has identified a very robust time domain electromagnetic (TDEM) conductor occurring on the eastern flank of a multi-element-in-soil anomaly.

Tremblay Olson Claims area highlights*:

  • The Tremblay-Olson Showing, located 2.5km southwest of the historic Rottenstone Mine, is defined by a lens-shaped ultramafic body exposed on surface through trenching.  Recorded trench values range from 0.16% Ni – 3.11% Ni; 0.06% Cu – 0.91% Cu; and 0.30 g/t – 1.01 g/t Pd+Pt1.
  • Drilling completed in 1987 in an area northeast of the Tremblay-Olson showing returned multiple intervals of anomalous Ni-Cu and Pd-Pt hosted in metasedimentary rock.
  • A soil geochemistry program covering the Tremblay-Olson Claims area was completed in Q4-2022.  This program identified a very robust multi-element-in-soil anomaly measuring approximately four-square kilometers. The anomaly is centred 2.0 kilometers southwest of the historic Rottenstone Mine.
