Canada Nickel Begins Submission of Federal Impact Statement for Crawford Nickel Sulphide Project

The federal Impact Statement includes critical baseline data and analysis of the environmental, social, and economic effects of the Project. It reflects Canada Nickel’s commitment to responsible mining practices and outlines mitigation measures to address potential negative impacts, therefore enhancing the Project’s benefits. The findings within the Submission are a result of extensive consultations with Indigenous Nations, local communities, government agencies, subject matter experts, and key stakeholders.

“The submission of our federal Impact Statement for the Project represents another major milestone for the Company and brings us one step closer to securing our permits, which we are targeting in 2025,” said Mark Selby, CEO of Canada Nickel. “We’re grateful for the strong partnerships we’ve built with Indigenous Nations and community stakeholders, whose contributions have been essential in shaping the Submission. Their input and advice helped ensure the Project aligns with our shared values of sustainability and regional economic growth.”

The Submission highlights the Company’s commitment to responsible development and aligns with its public timeline commitments. “As the Crawford Nickel Sulphide Project continues to make progress, it is well-positioned to drive regional economic growth and produce critical minerals as global demand continues to rise, with Canada Nickel playing a key role in the global transition to a low carbon economy.” added Selby.
