Nickel North Reports High-Grade Copper (2.22% Cu over
1.3 m) and new Gold Intercepts (up to 1.51 g/t Au) from
Re-Assays at Hawk Ridge Copper-Nickel-PGE-Gold Project,
Quebec
Vancouver, British Columbia, November 4th, 2026 - Nickel North Exploration Corp. ("Nickel
North" or the "Company") (TSX-V: NNX) is pleased to report assay results from the re-logging and
re-sampling of historical drill core at its 100%-owned Hawk Ridge Copper-Nickel-PGE-Gold Project
("Hawk Ridge") in Nunavik, northern Quebec. The results confirm the historical copper and nickel
assays and, for the first time on most of these holes, provide platinum, palladium, gold, copper,
nickel, cobalt, iron and sulphur values.
A total of 153 core samples over 194 meter length, were taken from nine drill holes: HR 96-12, HR
96-13 and HR 96-29 at the Hopes Advance Main and North Zones; HR 96-53 and HR 97-100 at the
Schindler Zone; HR 96-92 at the Pio North Zone; HR 12-07 and HR 13-14 at the Hopes Advance
Main Zone; and HR 13-08 at the Bay and Fold target (Figure 1). The 1996 and 1997 holes were
drilled by a previous operator, Troymin Resources Ltd.; the 2012 and 2013 holes were drilled by
Nickel North. The core was re-logged, re-sampled and assayed at AGAT Laboratories (Calgary,
Alberta), an accredited laboratory independent of the Company, by fire assay with ICP-OES finish
for gold, platinum and palladium (trace-level package) and by four-acid digestion with ICP-OES
finish for the multi-element package.
The program provides measured platinum, palladium, gold, copper, nickel, cobalt, iron and sulphur
values on intervals where the 2023 Mineral Resource Estimate relied on regressed values, and
forms part of the data preparation for a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) report of the
Hawk Ridge Project.
Highlights
Thick copper mineralization at Hopes Advance Main - HR 96-12 (Hopes Advance Main) yielded
23.4 m grading 0.58% Cu, 0.21% Ni, 0.27 g/t Pd+Pt and 0.04 g/t Au from 61.0 m to 84.4 m. The
1996 assays over the same interval returned 0.56% Cu and 0.21% Ni; platinum, palladium and
gold were not assayed in 1996.
High-grade copper within a broad zone - HR 97-100 (Gamma-Schindler) resulted in 19.3 m
grading 0.60% Cu, 0.22% Ni, 0.48 g/t Pd+Pt and 0.05 g/t Au from 208.0 m to 227.3 m, including
1.3 m grading 2.22% Cu, 0.22% Ni, 4.17 g/t Pd+Pt and 0.17 g/t Au from 208.0 m to 209.3 m.
The 1997 assays over the same 19.3 m interval returned 0.78% Cu and 0.29% Ni; platinum,
palladium and gold were not assayed in 1997. The 4.17 g/t Pd+Pt sample is the highest combined
platinum-palladium value recorded from all drill core at Hawk Ridge to date.
New gold intercept at Pio North - HR 96-92 (Pio North) resulted in a new gold intercept of 2.0
m grading 0.96 g/t Au from 89.6 m to 91.6 m, including 1.0 m grading 1.51 g/t Au, hosted in

massive pyrrhotite (approximately 20% Fe, greater than 10% S) with 0.08% Cu and 0.03% Ni.
Gold was not assayed on this hole in 1996.
Across all nine holes the 2026 copper and nickel results reproduce the historical assays within
the range expected for re-sampling of split historical core, confirming the reliability of the
historical database.
Tony Guo, P.Geo., Chief Executive Officer of Nickel North, commented: "These results achieve two
key objectives: they validate historical copper and nickel assays at Hawk Ridge, and they introduce
new measured platinum, palladium and gold values, with PGE up to 4.17 g/t and gold up to 1.51
g/t, on intervals where those metals had never been assayed. Much of the core re-sampled in this
program was drilled in the decades ago, when gold, platinum and palladium were not assayed on
many of these intervals. Modern assaying has now given us measured values up to 4.17 g/t Pd +

strengthens the case for updating the MRE and advancing the project toward a Preliminary
Economic Assessment (PEA) at Hawk Ridge"."
Sampling, Analysis and QA/QC
Historical drill core from the Hawk Ridge Project has been stored on site at Hawk Ridge since the
original drilling campaigns and is in pretty well condition (Figure 2). As part of the 2026 program,
project geologists identified each drill hole by ID, depth, and interval, and conducted updated
geological and structural core logging.
Following logging, the core was systematically re-sampled at intervals ranging from 1.0 meter to
1.5 meters. Each individual core sample was placed in a clear poly bag accompanied by a unique
lab waterproof sample tag and subsequently packed into heavy-duty rice bags with approximately
15 sample bags per rice bag for secure transport. Strict chain of custody protocols was maintained
by the Project Geologist throughout transport. All sample batches were shipped via air cargo and
submitted directly to AGAT Laboratories in Montreal, Quebec.
During the analytical process, a rigorous QA/QC program was applied, including the insertion of
repeats, and duplicates. Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) including OREAS 85, OREAS 243, and
OREAS 264 were inserted into the sample stream to evaluate laboratory accuracy and precision.
QA/QC review confirmed that all standard and duplicate performance met acceptable industry
standards for data verification and resource modeling. Reported intervals are drill-hole lengths;
true thicknesses have not been determined. Composite grades are length-weighted averages of
the individual samples. Values reported by the laboratory above the upper detection limit for
sulphur (10%) have been assigned the limit value in the composites. Pd+Pt is the arithmetic sum
of palladium and platinum grades.

Nickel North Reports High-Grade Copper (2.22% Cu over 1.3 m) and new Gold Intercepts (up to 1.51 g/t Au) from Re-Assays at Hawk Ridge Copper-Nickel-PGE-Gold Project, Quebec
Vancouver, British Columbia, November 4th, 2026 - Nickel North Exploration Corp. ("Nickel North" or the "Company") (TSX-V: NNX) is pleased to report assay results from the re-logging and re-sampling of historical drill core at its 100%-owned Hawk Ridge Copper-Nickel-PGE-Gold Project ("Hawk Ridge") in Nunavik, northern Quebec. The results confirm the historical copper and nickel assays and, for the first time on most of these holes, provide platinum, palladium, gold, copper, nickel, cobalt, iron and sulphur values.
A total of 153 core samples over 194 meter length, were taken from nine drill holes: HR 96-12, HR 96-13 and HR 96-29 at the Hopes Advance Main and North Zones; HR 96-53 and HR 97-100 at the Schindler Zone; HR 96-92 at the Pio North Zone; HR 12-07 and HR 13-14 at the Hopes Advance Main Zone; and HR 13-08 at the Bay and Fold target (Figure 1). The 1996 and 1997 holes were drilled by a previous operator, Troymin Resources Ltd.; the 2012 and 2013 holes were drilled by Nickel North. The core was re-logged, re-sampled and assayed at AGAT Laboratories (Calgary, Alberta), an accredited laboratory independent of the Company, by fire assay with ICP-OES finish for gold, platinum and palladium (trace-level package) and by four-acid digestion with ICP-OES finish for the multi-element package.
The program provides measured platinum, palladium, gold, copper, nickel, cobalt, iron and sulphur values on intervals where the 2023 Mineral Resource Estimate relied on regressed values, and forms part of the data preparation for a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) report of the Hawk Ridge Project.
Highlights
Thick copper mineralization at Hopes Advance Main - HR 96-12 (Hopes Advance Main) yielded 23.4 m grading 0.58% Cu, 0.21% Ni, 0.27 g/t Pd+Pt and 0.04 g/t Au from 61.0 m to 84.4 m. The 1996 assays over the same interval returned 0.56% Cu and 0.21% Ni; platinum, palladium and gold were not assayed in 1996.
High-grade copper within a broad zone - HR 97-100 (Gamma-Schindler) resulted in 19.3 m grading 0.60% Cu, 0.22% Ni, 0.48 g/t Pd+Pt and 0.05 g/t Au from 208.0 m to 227.3 m, including 1.3 m grading 2.22% Cu, 0.22% Ni, 4.17 g/t Pd+Pt and 0.17 g/t Au from 208.0 m to 209.3 m. The 1997 assays over the same 19.3 m interval returned 0.78% Cu and 0.29% Ni; platinum, palladium and gold were not assayed in 1997. The 4.17 g/t Pd+Pt sample is the highest combined platinum-palladium value recorded from all drill core at Hawk Ridge to date.
New gold intercept at Pio North - HR 96-92 (Pio North) resulted in a new gold intercept of 2.0 m grading 0.96 g/t Au from 89.6 m to 91.6 m, including 1.0 m grading 1.51 g/t Au, hosted in massive pyrrhotite (approximately 20% Fe, greater than 10% S) with 0.08% Cu and 0.03% Ni. Gold was not assayed on this hole in 1996.
Across all nine holes the 2026 copper and nickel results reproduce the historical assays within the range expected for re-sampling of split historical core, confirming the reliability of the historical database.
Figure 1. Hawk Ridge Project, location of drill holes re-sampled in 2026.
Tony Guo, P.Geo., Chief Executive Officer of Nickel North, commented: "These results achieve two key objectives: they validate historical copper and nickel assays at Hawk Ridge, and they introduce new measured platinum, palladium and gold values, with PGE up to 4.17 g/t and gold up to 1.51 g/t, on intervals where those metals had never been assayed. Much of the core re-sampled in this program was drilled in the decades ago, when gold, platinum and palladium were not assayed on many of these intervals. Modern assaying has now given us measured values up to 4.17 g/t Pd + Pt and 1.51 g/t Au, alongside 2.22% Cu over 1.3 m, where our 2022 Mineral Resource Estimate relied on regressed values. With copper and gold prices well above previous levels, we believe this strengthens the case for updating the MRE and advancing the project toward a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) at Hawk Ridge"."
Sampling, Analysis and QA/QC
Historical drill core from the Hawk Ridge Project has been stored on site at Hawk Ridge since the original drilling campaigns and is in pretty well condition (Figure 2). As part of the 2026 program, project geologists identified each drill hole by ID, depth, and interval, and conducted updated geological and structural core logging.
Following logging, the core was systematically re-sampled at intervals ranging from 1.0 meter to 1.5 meters. Each individual core sample was placed in a clear poly bag accompanied by a unique lab waterproof sample tag and subsequently packed into heavy-duty rice bags with approximately 15 sample bags per rice bag for secure transport. Strict chain of custody protocols was maintained by the Project Geologist throughout transport. All sample batches were shipped via air cargo and submitted directly to AGAT Laboratories in Montreal, Quebec.
During the analytical process, a rigorous QA/QC program was applied, including the insertion of repeats, and duplicates. Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) including OREAS 85, OREAS 243, and OREAS 264 were inserted into the sample stream to evaluate laboratory accuracy and precision. QA/QC review confirmed that all standard and duplicate performance met acceptable industry standards for data verification and resource modeling. Reported intervals are drill-hole lengths; true thicknesses have not been determined. Composite grades are length-weighted averages of the individual samples. Values reported by the laboratory above the upper detection limit for sulphur (10%) have been assigned the limit value in the composites. Pd+Pt is the arithmetic sum of palladium and platinum grades.
