From drilling to district potential, Beaver-Lynx delivers consistent nickel-PGM mineralization

20th January 2026 From drilling to district potential, Beaver-Lynx delivers consistent nickel-PGM mineralization

Inomin Mines Inc. has released the final results from its 2025 diamond drilling program at the Beaver-Lynx Project in south-central Canada, and the scale of what’s emerging is hard to ignore. Across 13 drill holes in both the South and North zones, every single hole intersected significant serpentinized mineralization carrying nickel, magnesium, cobalt, chromium, and now, importantlym platinum and palladium.

Key information

The company in the release confirmed:

  • ~500,000 m² mineralized footprint in the South Zone,
  • mineralization traced along a 7-km magnetic trend in the North Zone
  • broad, near-surface intervals pointing to a large, continuous, polymetallic system
  • PGMs (Pt & Pd) consistently present alongside battery and industrial metals

These are not narrow, isolated hits. They are district-scale signals.

Drilling highlights

South Zone holes returned 100+ m continuous intercepts averaging ~0.19–0.20% Ni with strong Mg and associated Co–Cr, while North Zone drilling confirmed the extension of mineralization into a previously untested area tied to regional magnetics. Mineralization sits within a thick serpentinite body, near surface, and open in multiple directions

The program was completed with Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd. (Canada), which funded the drilling under an earn-in and joint-venture framework adding technical weight to the results.

Looking forword for the nex drilling program

CEO John Gomez summed stated: “Our 2025 drilling program significantly expanded the mineralized footprint of the South Zone, confirming the existence of a large, polymetallic system. The identification of platinum and palladium associated with the other metals encountered to date at Beaver-Lynx marks a meaningful new development. Although low-grading, PGMs are consistent and could be a significant contribution to production value. With an exceptional drilling success rate approaching 100%, we look forward to the next drilling program.”

Location advantage

Beaver-Lynx spans 28,000 hectares, sits near major producing mines (including Gibraltar), and benefits from road access, power, rail, and an experienced regional workforce, key ingredients for future development.

Multiple zones. Multiple metals. Strong geophysics. Consistent drilling success. Beaver-Lynx is shaping up as a new critical-minerals district, not a single discovery.
