FPX Nickel Receives Large Investments From Major Industry Players

June 23, 2023

Martin Turenne, CEO of FPX Nickel (FPOCF — FPX) provided a sponsor update. The company is currently sitting on C$32 million with a good likelihood of more coming. C$16 million came in via an investment by giant European stainless producer Outokumpu. An additional C$2 million arrived via FPX’s confidential investor, to maintain its %9.9 FPX share.

Martin also discussed the significance of FPX’s newly formed global generative exploration alliance with Japan Organization for Metals and Security (“JOGMEC”), which aims to build on the successes of the Baptiste Nickel Project by identifying new large-scale awaruite nickel deposits worldwide. In furtherance of this agreement, Keith Patterson joined as VP of Exploration. He’s a seasoned mining company executive with vast exploration experience.

Martin had previously scoured the planet looking for awaruite deposits similar to Baptiste. These deposits are found in many countries; Martin has already identified the most promising targets for future acquisition. Now that FPX has proven that awaruite deposits are economically feasible, these projects have enormous upside potential.

FPX’s future is looking bright. Retail investors are starting to catch on as witnessed by the recent share appreciation. Interest among OEM’s and other nickel consumers is building. The company is moving to release its preliminary feasibility statement in September and this could well spark an explosive phase in the company’s growth.
