Power Nickel has appointed internationally recognized geoscientist Dr. Steve Beresford has joined the Power Nickel board.
Dr. Steve Beresford’s career includes being chief geologist of three major mining companies, a lecturer and professor, and the founder of several exploration companies. Beresford began his exploration career at WMC Resources and has gone onto to do field exploration in 66 countries, largely for magmatic Nickel-Copper-PGE deposits. Beresford is currently an Adjunct Professor at the University of Western Australia, and a board member of AGEMERA in Europe. He received his BSc Honors and PhD from the University of Canterbury ( New Zealand).
“On May 1 we welcomed Steve to the team as our technical advisor, today we welcome him as our board member. We have had a dynamic short period of time working with Dr. Beresford, and we are quickly utilizing his tried and proven exploration techniques on polymetallic deposits to expedite the successful exploration of Nisk,” said Power Nickel CEO Terry Lynch.
“Polymetallic Ni-Cu-PGE deposits remain the premier deposit type, even with the current Nickel price. These deposits are high-grade metal deposits where Cu and noble metals (PGE, Au, Ag) form equivalent value to Nickel, not just credit metals. Lion is prospective for between 11 and 15 metals. It’s not academic nuance to discriminate these systems from common garden nickel deposits, it’s economics. We continue to advance the Lion discovery and I look forward to working with the Power Nickel board during these exciting times,” said Dr. Steve Beresford.
Power Nickel is a Canadian junior exploration company focusing on developing the high-grade Nisk project into Canada’s first carbon neutral Nickel mine. The Nisk property comprises a significant land position with numerous high-grade intercepts. Power Nickel is focused on expanding the historical high-grade nickel-copper PGE mineralization with a series of drill programs designed to test the initial Nisk discovery zone and to explore the land package for adjacent potential nickel deposits. In addition to the Nisk project, Power Nickel owns significant land packages in British Colombia and Chile. The company is in the process of reorganizing these assets in a related vehicle, through a plan of arrangement that will be presented to Power Nickel shareholders of record for their approval.
