Alaska Energy Metals expands footprint in Canada with Québec acquisition

Alaska Energy Metals (TSXV: AEMC) last week announced its intent to acquire 100% interest in the 3,320-hectare Bambino nickel-copper- platinum group element property in Québec, expanding its footprint in the province, which has become an exploration hotbed for green energy transition metals.

The company is also developing the Nikolai project in Alaska, where in February it boosted the known nickel resources to 8 billion lb. following an update to the NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate.

Nikolai nickel project, which hosts the Eureka deposit, already contains one of the largest known nickel resources in the US, CEO Greg Beischer said.
