[{"type":"text","content":"VANCOUVER, British Columbia / Aug 30, 2022 / Business Wire / Québec Nickel Corp. (CSE: QNI; FSE: 7lB; OTCQB: QNICF) (“QNI” or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce new assay results from step-out drilling completed at the Fortin Sill Zone, Ducros Project, located 80 kilometres northeast of Val-d’Or, Québec. Additionally, the Company also reports assay results from the Fortin Sill discovery outcrop channel sampling program that was completed earlier this summer. Step-out Drilling Highlights: Magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE sulphides encountered in two new holes collared to the southeast of the Fortin Sill Zone discovery outcrop. Hole QDG-22-28 cored through a 29.90 metre interval averaging 0.30% Ni, 0.31% Cu, 167 ppm Co, and 0.45 g/t Pt-Pd-Au which includes a higher-grade subinterval containing 0.46% Ni, 0.64% Cu, 209 ppm Co and 0.72 g/t Pt-Pd-Au over 3.24 metres. Hole QDG-22-29 intersected a 11.80 metre interval containing 1.44% Ni, 1.49% Cu, 461 ppm Co and 2.79 g/t Pt-Pd-Au which includes a higher-grade subinterval assaying 1.85% Ni, 1.65% Cu (3.50% Ni + Cu), 576 ppm Co and 3.27 g/t Pt-Pd-Au over 8.43 metres. A new permit application has been delivered to the Québec Government that will allow for additional expansion drilling of the Fortin Sill Ni-Cu-Co-PGE-Au zone. Fortin Sill Discovery Outcrop Channel Sampling Assay Highlights: Channel 2 results: 1.30% Ni + Cu, 179 ppm Co, 1.39 g/t Pt-Pd-Au over 13.00 metres including 1.60% Ni + Cu, 178 ppm Co, 2.02 g/t Pt-Pd-Au over 7.16 metres. Channel 5 results: 1.08% Ni + Cu, 207 ppm Co, 1.26 g/t Pt-Pd-Au over 14.45 metres. Fortin Sill Zone Step-out Drilling To follow-up to the strong assays results returned from drill holes QDG-22-09 through QDG-22-11 at the Fortin Sill target earlier this year (see news releases dated May 16 and June 6, 2022), holes QDG-22-28 and QDG-22-29 were collared approximately 35 metres to the east-southeast of QDG-22-09 and 25 metres to the southeast of the Fortin Sill discovery outcrop. Hole QDG-22-28, a 201-metre-long hole, was drilled at 240° Azimuth and at -45° dip and cored through a greater than 43 metres interval of strongly chlorite-altered varitexture gabbro between 5.61-49.00 metres. The entire 43.39-metre-long interval contains variable amounts of finely disseminated, patchy and blebby magmatic sulphides and returned anomalous values of 0.24% Ni, 0.25% Cu, 146 p...
