Tartisan Nickel Corp. Prepares for Phase 1 Drill Program at the Kenbridge Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project

Rhea-AI Summary

Tartisan Nickel (OTCQB:TTSRF) is preparing a Phase 1 diamond drill program of ~3,600 metres at its 100%‑owned Kenbridge Nickel‑Copper‑Cobalt Project in the Kenora Mining District, northwestern Ontario (announced November 12, 2025).

The program aims to convert inferred resources to Measured and Indicated, test down‑plunge and along‑strike extensions of high‑grade Ni‑Cu mineralization below the existing 623‑metre shaft, improve geological and metallurgical understanding to support a potential pre‑feasibility study, and collect data for future mine design.

Tartisan also continues evaluating additional targets across the 4,273‑hectare project area with road access from Sioux Narrows and Kenora.

Positive

• Planned 3,600 m NQ diamond drilling in Phase 1
• Objective to convert inferred resources into Measured and Indicated
• Focus on testing extensions below the existing 623 m shaft
• Project covers 4,273 ha with road infrastructure access

Negative

• Kenbridge deposit resources are currently classified as inferred

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 12, 2025) - Tartisan Nickel Corp. (CSE: TN) (OTCQB: TTSRF) (FSE: 8TA) ("Tartisan", or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company is preparing to commence a Phase 1 diamond drill program totaling approximately 3600 meters at its 100% owned Kenbridge Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project, located in the Kenora Mining District, northwestern Ontario.

The upcoming program is designed to expand and upgrade existing resources at the Kenbridge Deposit, focusing on converting inferred resources into the Measured and Indicated categories as well as test extensions of high-grade Ni-Cu mineralization below the existing 623-meter shaft.

Drill targets have been prioritized based on results from previous exploration and downhole geophysical modeling, with the aim of extending known high-grade nickel-copper mineralization both down-plunge and along strike of the Kenbridge Deposit.

Key Objectives of the Phase 1 Program:

• Complete approximately 3600 meters of NQ diamond drilling across priority targets
• Test extensions of high-grade Ni-Cu mineralization below the existing 623-meter shaft
• Improve geological and metallurgical understanding to support a potential PFS
• Collect new data to support future mine design and resource conversion

Tartisan Nickel Corp. continues to evaluate additional targets within the broader Kenbridge Nickel Project area which covers approximately 4,273 ha. of patented and staked claims with excellent infrastructure access via road from Sioux Narrows and Kenora, Ontario.

Mark Appleby, CEO of Tartisan Nickel Corp. states, "The upcoming Phase 1 drill program represents an important step in advancing the Kenbridge Project toward production readiness. Our objective is to strengthen the resource base and advance engineering studies that will form the backbone of our pre-feasibility work."
