SKRR Exploration (SKRR) has expanded its 100 per cent owned Nickel Peak Claim Group.

SKRR’s expanded Nickel Peak Group now spans 8425 acres (3410 hectares) approximately 110 kilometres northwest of Fort St. James, B.C., in the Omineca mining district.

Metallic mineralization includes nickel, cobalt and chromium with the documented presence of awaruite. Assays by Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd. in 2005 returned up to 1826 ppm 1734 ppm Nickel with 1113 ppm Chromium.

Sherman Dahl, CEO of SKRR, commented on the news.

“We are excited to begin exploration on the newly expanded Nickel Peak Group this 2022 season. Recent spikes in demand for nickel is fueled by the meteoric rise in electric vehicles and the need for this important metal in the manufacturing of batteries that power them. Nickel prices have risen sharply this year with a massive 250% spike in early March of 2022, forecasts call for continued rise in Nickel demand with more and more electric vehicles and battery powered devices coming to market.”

“The acquisition and subsequent expansion of our Nickel Peak Group of claims represents yet another example SKRR’s continued mission to build a world class base and precious metal company and promise to drive value for shareholders. These Nickel Peak claims are situated in an active world class Nickel camp and represent tremendous blue-sky potential with multiple historic high-grade Nickel samples and assays that have been underexplored until now. SKRR will be a leader with a diversified portfolio of high-quality long-life assets. The SKRR team has done an incredible job over the last few years of drilling, exploring, discovering, and positioning the company for success.”

SKRR is a Canadian-based precious metal explorer with properties in British Columbia and Saskatchewan.
