Research #4Nickel-Copper-PGE in Ontario, Canada

Calandra is buying Nickel One (as management may hit

pay dirt again) Thom Calandra’s investment letter, the Calandra Report, covers a number of promising resource stocks, however in his latest Wednesday edition he reported to have bought more shares of Nickel One Resources Inc. His bet is straight-forward: The first phase of drilling at Nickel One’s 100% owned Tyko Nickel-Copper-PGE Project near Marathon in northwestern Ontario is complete and remaining assays are yet to be disclosed. In mid-April, the company announced assays of the first 4 holes: All intersected significant nickel mineralization at shallow depths, including 1.04% nickel over 16 m (78 m downhole), which is almost 4 times the mineralization length of historic hole TK-06-001 (1.09% Ni over 4.15 m) and almost 3 times the mineralization length of historic hole TK-06-005 (1.05% Ni over 6.20 m).

he phase-1 drilling program was designed to confirm orientation of mineralization in the channel

structures and extend the continuity of mineralization. Assays from the initial 4 holes in April (see below table) demon-strated that Nickel One is right on track, while drilling since then focussed on highly interesting targets never drilled before. A new discovery may bring the attention that this under-the-radar-flying, low-key junior deserves. Early birds, like Calandra, may strike big. The next batch of 10 holes have the poten-tial to make the company a respect-able junior actively developing historic showings into viable nickel-copper-PGE deposits close to surface.

According to Thom Calandra:

He Is Buying A Slug More Of Nickel One -- TCR The Calandra Report

Nickel One’s Tyko Project at Hemlo in Ontario, Canada -- nickel and platinum

group metals. NNN in Canada and NKORF in USA. I just added to my position.

Abraham Drost is QP (qualifying person) geologist on coming exploration assays. Vance Loeber in Vancouver, Canada, is CEO of the fledgling prospector .

I requested the over-the-counter (pink sheet) ticker in the USA after meeting with Nic kel One’s M r. Drost a nd Mr. Loeber in Toronto. Mr. Drost of Thunder Bay, Ontario, last hit pay dirt as CEO of Carl isle Goldfields (Manitoba), which is now owned and operated by Alamos Gold (AGI in Canada).

I su gge s t a pur cha s e of NNN/NKORF immediately. I am adding to my owner-ship of thinly traded NNN and NKORF right now (Wednesday) at 11 cents CAD.

I expect that fresh drill-hole assays at what the company is calling a magmatic feeder system (gold, platinum, copper, nickel) are afoot .

Given the history of this formerly private proj ect n o w in a p u b l ic company’s stwerdship, fresh drilling of the property is likely to confirm high-grade platinum group mineralization.

I b eli e ve I w i l l be proven correct in coming days .

Nickel One has less than $1 million in its treasury , most of which it is using for a winter-spring 2016 drill program. See the first four exploration holes published in April 2016.

Some 30 million shares and warrants are in the NNN mix. The float is minus about 10 million shares in escrow for a multi-year lockup. Market value is $3 million CAD.

Stephan Bogner in Germany is tracking NNN for his Rockstone-Research service.

“Assays from the initial four holes from the recent drilling program on

the RJ Zone at the Tyko Property, showcase considerable potential for the Project. A new magma conduit

model, developed by Fladgate Exploration Consulting, was tested at RJ. Initial results support this model

which potentially links the RJ and Tyko Zones (separated by 1.5 km) as part of pipe-like feeder system

(Figures 1 and 2).” (Vance Loeber, President & CEO of

Nickel One, on April 12, 2016)

The already published assays from 4 holes (total 580 m) were drilled at the RJ Zone/Showing. All 14 holes of the phase-1 drill program totalled 1,780 m, whereas pending assays are also from holes at the Tyko Zone/Showing, as well as a 3rd (new) target named Bruce Lake.

Rockstone eagerly awaits the remaining 10 assays from the Tyko Zone/Showing and the newly discovered Bruce Lake Showing. If Nickel One continues to ex-ceed historic drilling results, Rockstone believes that Tyko may advance quickly to a world-class nickel deposit close to surface.

The RJ Zone consists primarily of meta-morphosed mineralized pyroxenite which has been intruded by later gran-itoid rocks. The mineralized pyroxenite contains abundant rip-up clasts of other mafic-ultramafic phases and clastic sedi-ments indicative of an active feeder-type system. The mineralization is nickel-rich with an average Ni:Cu ratio of ~2:1 and a Pt:Pd ratio of ~1:1. Sulphides are typically disseminated to blebby with local patch-es of net-textured and semi-massive sulphide breccia. The sulphide tenors of the Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization on the Tyko Property are very high. Limited analysis by previous workers indicate tenors in 100% sulphide that average 13.0% Ni, 8.8% Cu, 6.6g/t PGE (Pt+Pd) at the RJ Zone and 12.9% Ni, 14.5% Cu, and 13.6g/t PGE at the Tyko Zone.

Additional analysis are currently under-way to better define the sulphide tenors of the various magmatic phases. The high tenor of the sulphide suggests a

high value flotation concentrate from RJ or Tyko style mineralization. This indi-cates that even a disseminated sulphide deposit could potentially be economic and adds further support to the view that Nickel One’s Tyko Project contains a fertile magmatic feeder system.

The company’s objective is to delineat-ed this feeder system and ultimately develop a mineral resource on the prop-erty. The pending assays from 10 holes may bring the company a big step closer to prove that case.

”One would think that those companies brave enough to be

developing early stage nickel deposits at this point in the commodity cycle could fill the gap of lost production in coming years. This is of course all

subject to a rebound in the nickel price. This rebound could commence

as early as next year as the Indonesian laterite ore ban makes

itself felt. Only time will tell.” (Chris Berry in “A Closer Look at Nickel:

An Unsustainable Current Reality”)
