Highlights

  • Contributes over $70 billion to Canada's GDP over 40+ year project life
  • Generates over $16 billion in federal and provincial tax revenues
  • On average, provides $16 billion in labour income from approximately 1,000 direct jobs and over 3,000 indirect and induced jobs

TORONTO, Oct. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Canada Nickel Company Inc. ("Canada Nickel" or the "Company") (TSXV: CNC) (OTCQX: CNIKF) today announced the results from an economic impact study completed for its flagship Crawford Nickel Project ("Crawford"), located in the Timmins Nickel District of Ontario.

The study, prepared by Mansfield Consulting, estimates that Crawford will generate a total economic contribution of over $70 billion to Canada's Gross Domestic Product ("GDP"), over the project's projected 40+ year life of the mine, with $67 billion of that impact in Ontario alone. Crawford is also expected to support approximately 1,000 direct and 3000 indirect and induced jobs, totalling approximately 185,000 person-years of employment and delivering approximately $16 billion in labour income. In addition, under the study, Crawford is projected to generate $7.7 billion in federal tax revenues and $8.3 billion in provincial tax revenues.

"These results confirm Crawford's potential as one of our country's most significant new critical minerals projects," said Mark Selby, CEO of Canada Nickel Company. "Crawford is projected to generate substantial economic benefits for both Ontario and Canada while supplying the nickel and other critical minerals needed to meet growing global demand. The scale of this Project – its long-term jobs, tax revenues, and GDP contributions– combined with the value generated from local downstream processing plants and the potential from eight additional projects, reinforces the Timmins Nickel District's emerging status as Ontario's Critical Minerals Corridor.

Mr. Selby continued, "Unlike many other critical mineral projects, Crawford is already well-advanced in permitting, has all of the major infrastructure in place, and has strong community support. With these crucial elements already established, Crawford is uniquely positioned to move forward efficiently and deliver tangible benefits sooner. Importantly, Crawford's benefits will be delivered through established and collaborative partnerships with Indigenous Nations, who are actively engaged as co-developers in our shared success."

Economic Study

The study quantified the economic impacts from the development and operation of Crawford across all phases of the project and assessing the impacts in Ontario and other regions of Canada. Economic impacts were estimated at the direct, indirect, and induced levels. Direct impacts are changes that occur with "front-end" businesses that initially receive operating revenues and incur expenditures. During the development of a mine, direct impacts occur with the mine owner and with other businesses that may receive a portion of the initial spending on a project. During the operation of a mine, direct impacts occur with the mine owner and with other businesses that may receive a portion of the mine revenues. Indirect impacts are changes that occur with suppliers of the front-end businesses. During the development or operation of a mine, indirect impacts occur with suppliers of goods and services to the mine. Induced impacts are changes that occur in the general economy through the spending by employees of front-end businesses and suppliers. During the development or operation of a mine, induced impacts result from the spending of mine employees and employees of mine suppliers in the general economy. Labour income is the total amount of wages and salaries paid to staff and employees. The study was based on information from the Company's feasibility study published in November 2023.
