NioBay Metal announces agreement with Tribal Logistics/Expedition Helicopter and updated agreement with Moose Cree First Nation

 

 

 

 

 

NioBay Metals Inc. (TSX-V: NBY) (OTCQB: NBYCF), a company focused on exploration, development and use of critical green metals with an Environmentally, Sustainable, Governance, and Indigenous (ESGI) focus, is pleased to announce the signing of a camp site rental agreement with Tribal Logistics/Expedition Helicopter to be used for its James Bay Niobium Project. The existing camp site is located and is a property of Ontario Northland Railway and will be used by NioBay personnel and contractors working on the Project. NioBay will also use transportation services of ONR during the exploration and Prefeasibility study periods.

 

Environmental protection agreement

 

On December 7th, NioBay and Moose Cree First Nation signed an updated protection agreement to cover the 2022 drilling program.

 

Drilling program

 

The crew is coming back from Christmas holidays and is working to set up the new camp facility on the ONR site. The drilling crew will arrive when the camp is ready. The first drill was moved in December and we are expecting to get a second drill by the end of January.

 

“It has been a very challenging time with logistics, COVID cases and availability of resources, but I’m now pleased to say that we are in a good position to succeed in this new drilling program with the two signed agreements. Since we are behind scheduled, we were extremely pleased to get a second drill. I’m sure many of our shareholders are waiting for results, as am I,” says Jean-Sébastien David, NioBay CEO.
