Nickel is an important component in the production of electric vehicle (EV) batteries due to its high energy density and ability to withstand high temperatures. The nickel content in EV batteries can range from 20-40%. As the demand for EVs increases, so does the demand for nickel.

The increasing demand for nickel in EV batteries, coupled with limited supply, has led to a rise in nickel prices. This is because large mining companies are unable to meet the growing demand for the metal. As a result, small mining companies that specialize in nickel production have an opportunity to succeed in the market. A rising nickel price makes it easier for small mining companies to make a profit because the higher price compensates for the additional costs associated with mining. Additionally, it also makes it more attractive for investors to invest in these small companies.

The increasing demand for EVs and the importance of nickel in their batteries is driving the demand and price of nickel upward, making it more profitable for small mining companies to produce the metal. This is a positive development for these companies as well as for investors looking to invest in the nickel mining sector.

This is why Tartisan is such an important SmallCap to pay attention to. The Kenbridge Nickel Mine is just that, a former producing mine. Kenbridge uniquely fits as a Small CAPEX Class 1 Nickel Project which can be put back into production this decade to become part of the North Ammerican Supply Chain.

The Kenbridge Nickel Deposit hosts an updated measured and indicated resource estimate of 7.5 Mt of 0.58% nickel and 0.32% copper for a total of 95 Mlb of contained nickel. An additional 0.985 Mt at 1% Ni and 0.62% Cu (22 Mlb contained nickel) were calculated as inferred mineral resources. Pit constrained + out of pit Cu totals 53 Mlbs. Mineralization is open at depth and along strike. The Kenbridge Nickel Deposit is equipped with a 622m deep shaft.
