26.05.2020 | 14:00 Uhr | CNW

/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION, DISTRIBUTION OR DISSEMINATION DIRECTLY, OR INDIRECTLY, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES/

TORONTO, May 26, 2020 - Nickel Creek Platinum Corp. (TSX: NCP) ("Nickel Creek" or the "Company") announced today that in light of ongoing concerns related to the spread of COVID-19, and in order to mitigate potential risks to the health and safety of its shareholders, employees, communities and other stakeholders, Nickel Creek is strongly encouraging its shareholders and others not to attend Nickel Creek's annual general and special meeting in person, which is scheduled for Tuesday, June 2, 2020 (the "Meeting").

Shareholders are strongly encouraged to vote on the matters before the Meeting by proxy in advance of the Meeting by one of the methods described in the Company's Management Information Circular, and to listen to the Meeting by way of a live conference call, the details of which are described below. Shareholders of the Company are invited to submit questions in advance of the meeting by email at info@nickeclcp.com. Instructions on voting via proxy can be found in the Company's management information circular and the proxy or voting instruction form sent to all shareholders and available on Nickel Creek's website at www.nickelcreekplatinum.com and under Nickel Creek's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Private Placement Update

On April 7, 2020, Nickel Creek announced that it had closed Tranche 1 of its previously announced private placement (the "Private Placement") pursuant to which the Company issued a total of 13,436,635 units ("Units") for gross proceeds of approximately $672 thousand. Subject to receipt of disinterested shareholder approval at the Meeting, the Company also intends to complete Tranche 2 of the Private Placement on or before June 5, 2020, which will consist of approximately 30.6 million Units for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $1.5 million and up to approximately 27.3 million "flow-through" units of the Company ("FT Units") at a price of $0.055 per FT Unit for aggregate proceeds of up to approximately $1.5 million. In connection with the Private Placement, the Company's largest shareholder, Electrum Strategic Opportunities Fund L.P., has agreed to purchase any Units that are unsubscribed for under the Private Placement up to a maximum backstop commitment of $2.2 million.

The net proceeds from the Private Placement will be used to fund the investigation of strategic opportunities, ongoing permitting activities and holding costs at the Nickel Shäw project, general corporate expenses and working capital purposes, and the 2020 exploration program, with all gross proceeds derived from the sale of any FT Units being used by the Company to fund "Canadian exploration expenses" that will qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures", each as defined under the Income Tax Act (Canada). The closing of the Private Placement remains subject to the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange and other customary closing conditions.

Corporate Update

The Company intends to conduct a drill and large loop, transient electromagnetic (EM) geophysics program at its Nickel Shäw project in August 2020, assuming successful closing of the Private Placement and flow-through financings referenced above. In preparation for the 2020 exploration program, the Company is closely monitoring updates related to COVID-19 and will be following all imposed Yukon and federal guidelines. The safety and well-being of our employees, contractors, consultants and importantly, the local community, are our highest priority. We are hopeful to be able to conduct our program as planned and will continue to monitor the situation.

On December 18, 2019, the Company announced the results of its geophysics program on the Quill exploration target, which is adjacent to the main resource, but within the Nickel Shäw project land package. The results of the geophysics program, which was designed to target areas of massive sulfides, identified several strong conductors and supports the Company drill testing some of these targets. The Company has identified two main target areas for drill testing (see Figure 2, December 18, 2019 news release). In addition, as a result of the success of the 2019 geophysical program, the Company plans to conduct additional EM geophysical surveys at Arch and Burwash. Geologic mapping and surface sampling are also planned for near surface targets identified in the EM survey.

Subject to financing, the above noted 2020 exploration program may be adjusted or amended.
