Nicola Mining Prepares for Multiyear Production with Fully Permitted Mill Restart

Nicola Mining Inc. is poised to leverage its strategic assets and comprehensive permitting to launch an ambitious eight-year production plan, with the restart of its fully permitted mill scheduled for June 2025. CEO Peter Espig highlighted the company's distinctive position in the mining industry, emphasizing its six active permits covering gold, silver, copper, quarrying, and milling operations.

The company's unique status as Canada's only designated mining industrial site provides province-wide processing rights for gold and silver, offering a significant competitive advantage. This designation allows Nicola Mining to process multiple metal types through its 100% owned mill and tailings facility located near Merritt, British Columbia.

Nicola Mining's project portfolio includes the New Craigmont Project, a high-grade copper property spanning 10,913 hectares adjacent to Highland Valley Copper, Canada's largest copper mine. Additionally, the Treasure Mountain Property comprises 30 mineral claims and a mineral lease covering over 2,200 hectares, further diversifying the company's potential revenue streams.

The mill's capabilities to process gold and silver through gravity and flotation techniques, combined with existing Mining and Milling Profit Share Agreements, position the company for robust and sustainable production. By strategically developing multiple metal extraction opportunities, Nicola Mining is preparing to capitalize on the growing demand for diverse mineral resources.

The planned mill restart represents a significant milestone for the company, potentially transforming its operational landscape and creating long-term value for stakeholders. With a comprehensive approach to mineral exploration and processing, Nicola Mining is strategically positioned to contribute to Canada's mining sector growth and meet emerging global mineral market demands.
