With the addition of the Carscallen property, the Corporation is expanding into Ontario and into the highly prolific Porcupine belt. The Corporation’s goal is to be opportunistic and acquire appealing properties at excellent valuations. Nitinat’s team is very excited about the prospects of the Property and for a relatively modest exploration program we believe we can quickly identify the potential of the Carscallen Property, offering our shareholders additional discovery opportunities.”
