New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 31% This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Negative equity (-CA$3.8m). Earnings have declined by 11% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (31% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risk Revenue is less than US$5m (CA$1.4m revenue, or US$1.0m). Announcement • Apr 14

Nicola Mining Inc. Ramps Up Production of High Grade Gold and Silver Concentrate Nicola Mining Inc. reported a material increase in throughput of high-grade gold and silver mill feed sourced from its partnership with Blue Lagoon Resources at the Dome Mountain Gold Project. High-grade gold and silver material is being processed at Nicola's fully permitted Merritt Mill, where the Company has transitioned from gravity & flotation gold recovery to a flotation-only recovery circuit to suit the new mill feed and to streamline production. This optimization reflects the sulphide-hosted nature of the mineralization and is designed to enhance metallurgical recoveries, improve concentrate grades, and maximize payable metal content. The resulting high-grade gold-silver flotation concentrate is sold to Ocean Partners UK Limited, a globally recognized metals trading and finance group. The transition from gravity-centric recovery to a flotation-focused flowsheet has been executed without operational disruption. Incremental plant upgrades and circuit refinements are being implemented concurrently with production to further improve recoveries, throughput stability, and operating efficiencies. Underground development at Dome Mountain continues, with additional mining faces being prepared to sustainably increase mill feed tonnage. In parallel, Nicola has initiated procurement of key mobile equipment and personnel in preparation for planned extraction at its Dominion Gold Project. The Dominion project hosts structurally controlled, high-grade gold. which Nicola intends to commence extraction under a bulk sample permit in July 2026. Gold production will allow validation of grade continuity, metallurgical performance, and mining selectivity while further augment the Company's cash flow. Board Change • Feb 01

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of Canadian stocks, typically moving 14% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Negative equity (-CA$8.6m). Earnings have declined by 21% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m (CA$750k revenue, or US$549k). Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change).

Nicola Mining Inc. Commences Exploration Drilling At New Craigmont Copper Project Nicola Mining Inc. announced commencement of the 2025 Exploration Diamond Drilling Program (the " 2025 Program") at its New Craigmont Copper Project ("New Craigmont"), near Merritt, BC. Exploration Target Generation Activities. Five priority exploration targets, three of which are included in Nicola's 2025 program, have been identified through collaboration in 2025 with ALS Geoanalytics (GoldSpot Discoveries Ltd.; "GoldSpot") using AI-based methods to analyze and correlate geophysical and geochemical data from Nicola's large exploration database. Target A. correlates well with the West Craigmont/WP target area where several holes were drilled in 2024. Drilling in 2024 revealed favourable alteration with follow-up potential. Target B. is a new, undrilled target identified by the GoldSpot analysis. Target C. responds with the MARB/CAS target area where positive results from the 2024 Exploration Program made it a high priority target. Target D corresponds with the important Titan Queen MINFILE showing. Historic and subsequent drilling and mapping in 2016 support more drilling. Target E is another new target from the Goldspot analysis that is added to the 2025 Program. Nicola continues to work with GoldSpot to refine the 2025 Exploration Program that will include collection of X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) and short-wave infrared (SWIR) data under the guidance of GoldSpot to ensure consistent, high-quality data acquisition aligned with New Craigmont's exploration goals. This new data will contribute to the development of exploration targets and improve understanding of skarn and porphyry-style mineralization. Diamond Drilling Plans. Exploration plans for the 2025 Program include 4,000-5,000 metres of diamond drilling at the MARB/CAS, West Craigmont/WP, and two new target areas generated by ALS GoldSpot. The purpose of the 2025 Program is to collect geological data for target development for a potential porphyry copper system at New Craigmont. Drill core will provide valuable information on lithology, structure, alteration and mineralization, and multi-element analysis. Drilling at MARB will follow-up near-surface porphyry-style copper-mineralization with holes designed to test a vertical mineralization trend at depth. Near surface skarn at CAS discovered in 2024 is characteristic of mineralization observed in the Embayment Zone. Additional drilling in the 2025 Program will investigate potential continuity along trend between MARB, CAS and the Embayment Zone. Draken is a high-priority, undrilled target consisting of a cluster of copper showings discovered from Nicola's field program in 2023. Outcrops of Guichon Border Phase quartz diorite contain porphyry style quartz-feldspar veinlets with weak copper oxide minerals. Exposures at Draken exhibit some of the best-developed porphyry-style alteration documented on the New Craigmont property, and the target also coincides with high resistivity and high chargeability geophysical response. Summary. Nicola's objective for 2025 is to continue to target for porphyry systems by conducting the following: Acquire an enhanced suite of geochemical data for more targeting studies with GoldSpot. Expand the extent of mineralization observed at the MARB and CAS targets. Test two new targets at West Craigmont, including Draken. Test two new targets generated by GoldSpot in the centre of the property. The estimated budget for the 2025 Program is $1.5-2 M. Nicola anticipates drilling to conclude sometime in September. The Company will provide a separate news release on exploration at its high-grade silver Treasure Mountain Project. New Risk • Jun 02
New major risk - Financial position The company has less than a year of cash runway based on its current free cash flow trend. Free cash flow: -CA$4.5m This is considered a major risk. With less than a year's worth of cash, the company will need to raise capital or take on debt unless its cash flows improve. This would dilute existing shareholders or increase balance sheet risk. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-CA$4.5m free cash flow). Negative equity (-CA$8.6m).

New major risk - Negative shareholders equity The company has negative equity. Total equity: -CA$9.8m This is considered a major risk. Being in negative equity means that the company's liabilities exceed its assets, meaning it owes more to creditors than it has in owned assets. While this doesn't mean the company is about to collapse, in the long-term, this is unsustainable. The company may have issues meeting financial obligations, is at risk of becoming insolvent and may have difficulty raising capital, especially more debt, if needed. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Negative equity (-CA$9.8m). Earnings have declined by 9.6% per year over the past 5 years.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 6.9% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings have declined by 6.9% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (4.1% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (CA$44.3m market cap, or US$31.6m). Announcement • Nov 15

Nicola Mining Announces Completion of 3D IP Survey and Commencement of Exploration Drilling at the New Craigmont Copper Project Nicola Mining Inc. announced the completion of a 3D induced polarization survey. Based on 3D IP Survey results the Company is in the process of commencing of its 2024 diamond drilling program at the New Craigmont Copper Project, situated approximately 11 kilometres from Merritt, BC and adjacent to Teck Resources Ltd.'s Highland Valley Copper, Canada's largest open-pit copper mine. A significant resistivity anomaly appears in the western section of New Craigmont, near the Lornex Fault, via the Company's 2022 ZTEM Survey. This anomaly was confirmed and refined by the 2024 3D IP Survey. Additionally, the Survey detected chargeability anomalies on the edges of the resistivity anomaly within the area, and a potential structure trending ENE, which coincides with the strongest and largest chargeability anomaly. This resistivity high could represent a felsic intrusion, as was observed in outcrop, and the chargeability high could indicate peripheral sulphidation, likely enhanced along the potential structure. The 3D IP Survey has generated multiple drilling targets focusing on the chargeability anomalies within the West Craigmont Zone. The 3D IP Survey at MARB-CAS provided valuable information regarding the lithologies and appears to clearly delineate the contact between Nicola Group rocks and the Guichon Creek Batholith. The major chargeability anomalies are primarily confined within the Nicola Group rocks in the southern portion of the survey area, with some chargeability anomalies detected between the MARB and CAS MINFILE showings. A total of 5,000 m of core drilling is planned for the 2024 exploration program. Drilling will primarily be focused on the West Craigmont Zone initially, with the possibility of also drilling at MARB/CAS later in the summer. Announcement • May 31

Nicola Mining Inc. Announces the Completion of Its 2023 Drilling Exploration Program At the New Craigmont Copper Project Nicola Mining Inc. announces the completion of its 2023 drilling exploration program at the New Craigmont Copper Project, a wholly owned venture located near Merritt, BC, and 33 km south of Teck Resources Ltd.'s Highland Valley Copper, Canada's largest open pit copper mine. The Company initiated the 2023 Program on June 6, 2023, drilling six diamond holes totaling 2,684 metres on Mineral Lease 237643, adjacent to the historic Craigmont Copper Mine. The 2023 Program aimed to explore the potential of a southeastern extension of the historic Craigmont skarn ore body and to investigate the potential of a porphyry copper system. Drill holes NC23-001, NC23-002, NC23-003, NC23-004a were drilled southeast of the historic Craigmont Copper Mine to test the potential of continued skarn mineralization. NC23-001 intercepted two intervals of (weakly mineralized) exoskarn hosted in Nicola Group limey sedimentary rocks, namely from 67.25 m to 99.8 m and 172.43 m to 185.50 m. The skarn intervals are composed of banded actinolite, magnetite, epidote, brown garnet and veinlets of chalcopyrite. The holes NC23-002, NC23-003 and NC23-004a have discovered extensive alteration (epidote, chlorite and biotite) in Nicola Group sedimentary and volcaniclastic rocks, while no exact skarn interval was found in the drill core. This alteration is characteristic of porphyries and supports the possibility of a proximal porphyry system. Drill holes NC23-005 and NC23-006 were drilled northeast and north of the historic pit and targeted the Guichon Quartz Diorite. Extensive potassic alteration, propylitic alteration and veinlets of chalcopyrite +/- molybdenite were observed in the core, suggesting the presence of a porphyry copper system at New Craigmont. The presence of these features along with discreet zones of significant copper Grade, all in proximity to the historic high-grade skarn, support the hypothesis that there is a porphyry centre (or several) on the property and that a copper porphyry system is the mineralization source for the historic Craigmont skarn. The Company continues to work diligently to compile a database of all, both historic and current, core logs and lab results. Once complete, Nicola will begin building a 3D geological interpretation using core logs, mapping data and geophysics. This will greatly aid in target generation and allow the Company to refine working hypotheses, as well as integrate subsequent data. Induced polarization ("IP") surveys are being planned for spring of 2024 over two key areas of interest, which will help fill existing IP data gaps. Data will be utilized in conjunction with magnetic and resistivity data to augment interpretations of structure, lithology, alteration, and mineralization. Previous IP results correlate well with high-grade copper intercepts at Embayment (Figure 10). Nicola anticipates using the results of the IP surveys, along with existing data to plan drill holes over one or both areas to be drilled later in the summer of 2024. Nicola's exploration team continues to collaborate closely with the University of British Columbia's ("UBC") Mineral Deposit Research Unit ("MDRU") on the MDRU's ongoing study of porphyry-style alteration and mineralization at the New Craigmont property.

Nicola Mining Inc. Ships Concentrate Produced Jointly with Osisko Development Corp Nicola Mining Inc. announced that it has commenced shipping of concentrate produced jointly with Osisko Development Corp. To date approximately 160 dry metric tonnes of gold concentrate grading an estimated 90 g/t Au have been shipped from site. The Company has secured an offtake agreement with Ocean Partners UK Limited to sell the concentrate on behalf of Nicola and Osisko. The Company has also completed the first four drill holes in its 2023 diamond drilling exploration program at its wholly owned New Craigmont Copper Project and is in the process of preparing to ship the core to the lab for analysis. Initial drilling has focused on skarn mineralization located approximately 500 metres east of the historic pit, but which was never drilled or explored. The Company announced in its May 2, 2023, news release that initial drilling was conducted to better understand the Nicola Group lithologies. Skarn mineralization is expected to follow a trend that is associated with limy sediments within the Nicola Group sequence and adjacent to the contact with the border phase of the Guichon Creek Batholith. In addition to Nicola's geological team, the University of British Columbia's ("UBC") Mineral Deposit Research Unit3 will be researching the potential and existence of copper porphyry systems on the Craigmont Property, commencing in August. Copper-bearing propylitic outcropping will be studied to vector towards any porphyry centres on the property. Announcement • Jun 07

Nicola Mining Inc. Prepares for 2023 Diamond Drilling Exploration Planning at New Craigmont Copper Project Nicola Mining Inc. announced that it has finalized its 2023 diamond drilling exploration planning (the 2023 Program) at its wholly-owned New Craigmont Copper Project (New Craigmont), located near Merritt, BC, and 33 km south of Teck Resources Ltd.'s Highland Valley Copper. Drilling is expected to commence mid-May and the Company has engaged Western Exploration Diamond Drilling (Western), for the 2023 program. Western, who is a local drilling company, has successfully completed all diamond drilling at New Craigmont since 2016. Nicola has hired William Whitty, P.Geo as VP of Exploration who has a strong background in production and exploration geology from Nevada Gold Mines and Freeport McMoran. Will holds over 15 years of international experience specializing in porphyry and skarn deposits and will be an asset for the company's growth strategy. Nicola is currently working with the University of British Columbia as part of a province wide porphyry vectoring study. Continuing sampling and analytical work are expected to provide additional exploration targets on the New Craigmont property. The 2023 Program is expected to be pivotal in the Company's copper exploration initiatives. Nicola received a MYAB Permit to conduct exploration activities through to 2027 including diamond drilling and Induce Polarity (IP) geophysical survey. Although New Craigmont is one of the highest grade copper mines in North American history, with an average grade of 1.3% Copper, it remains largely unexplored beyond the boundaries of the historic pit. The lack of exploration can be attributed to low copper prices in the 1980s and a previous ownership group, comprised of several holders, that focused on magnetite production. It was not until November 19, 2015, that Nicola was able to consolidate ownership of New Craigmont into one contiguous claim group. The 2023 Program will focus on never-before-drilled copper targets.

Nicola Mining Inc. Receives Multi-Year Area-Based Exploration Permit Nicola Mining Inc. received a multi-year area-based exploration permit, Permit Number MX-4-697. The MYAB Permit allows Nicola to conduct extensive copper exploration on its New Craigmont Property which is located adjacent to Teck Resources Ltd.'s Highland Valley Copper, Canada's copper mine New Craigmont is the site of the historic Craigmont Copper Mine, which produced approximately 34 million tonnes of copper at 1.3%, one of the highest-grade major copper mines in the history of North America. Despite the significant historic production, the 10,913-hectare site remains highly unexplored due to the original mine's sole focus on magnetite-associated copper skarn and depressed copper prices ($0.60 in 1982) at the time of closing. Technological advances in mining, as well as Nicola's success in consolidating fragmentated shareholder ownership of the mineral claims and mining leases, have significantly augmented the Property's potential. The MYAB Permit extends to the majority of the Property and encompasses the area of the recently completed Z-axis Tipper Electromagnetic (ZTEM) survey, which Nicola announced completion. In addition, to the ZTEM survey, the Company recently completed an extensive soil sampling program to further clarifiscal year drilling target. Results from the soil program will be released upon receipt. The MYAB Permit allows the Company to complete the following key exploration activities: Geophysical Survey with exposed electrodes 190 diamond drill holes 12 km of trenching/bulk sampling of 12 km [6 ha disturbance] The 2023 Exploration Program will target a larger area and key targets previously unexplored by diamond drilling.

Nicola Mining Inc. Announces Completion of District-Wide Airborne Geophysical Survey and Related Inversion Modeling Results Nicola Mining Inc. announced the completion of a district-wide airborne geophysical survey and related inversion modeling results carried out across its wholly owned New Craigmont Property which is located in Central British Columbia. The Z-axis Tipper Electromagnetic survey has imaged the electrical conductivity signature of known mineral occurrences the province of British Columbia. ZTEM has produced similar comparable signatures in other locations within the district of the Property. The Company is continuing data compilation and interpretation to better refine targets for a drilling exploration program upon receipt of the multi-year area-based exploration permit. The Company announced in its January 20, 2022, news release that it had applied for the MYAB, which covers subsections of the entire Property will allow the Company to conduct exploration for five years, upon approval. ZTEM is a modern geophysical technique that uses planar natural or passive fields of the Earth's thunderstorm activity as the source of transmitted energy. The vertical field response is caused by the lateral conductivity contrasts in the Earth, effectively mapping deep resistivity. Through geophysical inversions, ZTEM can image the subsurface three-dimensional distribution of apparent resistivity down to >2km depth. Products delivered include total magnetic intensity, total divergence 2D resistivity depth slices with vertical sections, and 3D resistivity inversions. The ZTEM system is proprietary to Geotech Ltd. A 1,029 line-kilometre ZTEM survey was completed across a 184 square kilometre block covering the New Craigmont Property. 2D and 3D inversion results have imaged the electrical conductivity of several MINFILEs in the district that include key Property exploration targets: Eric, Jua, Laron, Titan Queen, Marb 72, WP and Marb Two large and prominent NW-SE and WSW-ENE elongated, intrusion- like magnetic high bodies defined in the northwestern and east-central parts of the block. A large magnetic low in the SW corner of the claim block. A prominent north-south conductive contact on the western margin of the claim block corresponding with the Lornex Fault.

Nicola Mining Inc. Provides Exploration Updates for New Craigmont and Treasure Mountain Projects and Operational Update for Merritt Mill Nicola Mining Inc. to provide a preliminary 2022 exploration plan on its New Craigmont Project, as well as provide a summary of 2021 exploration activities at both its New Craigmont Project and Treasure Mountain Project, both of which are wholly-owned. In addition to exploration summaries, the Company will also provide a brief operational update on its wholly-owned Merritt Mill. The Company has contracted Geotech Ltd. to perform a 998-line kilometer Z-Tipper Axis Electromagnetic survey ("ZTEM Survey") across the entire New Craigmont Project, which is scheduled to be completed in the late spring of 2022. Geotech Ltd.'s proprietary deep penetrating ZTEM survey will probe for new untested conductive and resistive targets. The historic Craigmont deposit is a high-grade Cu-Fe skarn deposit that previously produced approximately 34Mt grading 1.3% Cu. The ZTEM survey will probe for potential fluid sources that precipitated the copper that was previously extracted. As skarns are known to be genetically and temporally related to porphyry deposits, the Company will be examining for this potential. Results from the ZTEM Survey are expected to be received by early summer. After reviewing ZTEM Survey results, the Company will conduct surface mapping and sampling programs, as well as evaluating the potential for future induced polarization surveys ("IP Survey"), which may be used to follow up any geophysical anomalies identified from the ZTEM Survey. By paying close attention to the alteration mineralogy and alteration sequences and combining results from the ZTEM Survey, mapping, sampling and IP Surveys, Nicola hopes to identify several diamond drill exploration targets. Nicola has already submitted a multi-year area-based ("MYAB") application to the Ministry of Energy, Mines and Low Carbon Innovation ("EMLI"). The MYAB, which covers subsections of the Property, will allow the Company to conduct exploration for five years, upon approval. Following the Phase l Exploration Program in 2021, Nicola conducted a small soil sampling campaign that was completed at the Titan Queen and the Promontory Hills zones. The campaign was designed to test the limits of anomalous copper found in soils from a soil survey completed at New Craigmont in 2019. A total of 110 original soil samples were taken; 18 of these samples were anomalous in copper (>100ppm Cu). One of these samples contained 1,010ppm Cu and two others contained values of 656ppm and 686ppm Cu and are considered highly anomalous. These anomalies found in the 2021 soil survey extends anomalous copper at the Titan Queen zone in an east-west trend and warrants additional follow up work. Relogging of diamond drill core, with an emphasis on alteration mineralogy and sequences, began in 2021 and will be ongoing throughout the winter. A LiDAR survey was completed by Eagle Mapping Ltd. during the summer of 2021 on the Treasure Mountain property over an approximate area of 22 km2. The data has since been processed and received by the Company. The Company is in the process of applying for a MYAB for the Treasure Mountain Project, which will includes IP Survey and diamond drilling targets. The higher priority target is the MB Zone, which is located approximately 1.5 km from the underground mine workings to the north and on backside of the mountain. This target has not yet been diamond drill tested. Nicola is pleased that the Dominion Gold Project, which the Company owns a 75% economic interest, has submitted its Cariboo Mitigation Plan to the EMLI. The Company's partner in the project, High Range Exploration, is currently working on an updated pit plan, which is the last required submission for its Bulk Sample Permit. As announced in its December 22, 2021, Operational Update news release, the Mill Site was not adversely affected by recent southern BC flooding. In fact, the Company is in the process of applying for EMLI approval to provide riprap from the New Craigmont Site to help facilitate infrastructure repairs, including highways, in the region. Nicola plans to work with a First Nations' affiliated company to provide gravel and riprap for the repair efforts. The Company is also planning to ship 103 dry metric tonnes of concentrate, that is stored inside the mill, as soon as possible. Announcement • Aug 28
Nicola Mining Inc. Provides an Exploration Update for Its 2021 Exploration Phase I Drill Program on Its Wholly Owned New Craigmont Property Nicola Mining Inc. provided an exploration update for its 2021 Exploration Phase I Drill Program on its wholly owned New Craigmont property. The focus of Phase I was to test targets defined by magnetic anomalies located lateral and adjacent to the historic Craigmont Copper Mine. Results from Phase I drilling have recently been received from Actlabs and are reported herein. The focus of the Phase I Program was to drill test two magnetic anomalies. Magnetic vector inversion modelling suggested a magnetic anomaly adjacent to the western margin of the Craigmont pit ("Target 1"). A second target included a surface outcrop containing copper and iron mineralization with a coincident magnetic anomaly extending to depth on the northeast margin of the historic Craigmont pit ("Target 2"). The Phase 1 Program consisted of five diamond drill holes for a total of 1459.65 meters. The first three holes (CC-21-76, CC-21-77, and CC-21-78) were drilled at Target 1 and the final two holes (CC-21-79, and CC-21-80) were drilled at Target 2. Holes CC-21-76 and CC-21-77 were drilled into the large magnetic anomaly west of the pit, which intersected the Guichon Creek Border Phase diorite and contained abundant locally disseminated magnetite with disseminated pyrite and locally intense epidote and chlorite alteration. The third hole (CC-21-78) was drilled to the south, outside and along, the periphery of the magnetic anomaly where it intersected Nicola Group sediments that contained mineralized skarn intervals containing massive chalcopyrite, magnetite, and pyrite mineralization within strongly altered calcareous sediments. Holes CC-21-79, and CC-21-80 were drilled at Target 2 and intersected strongly chlorite altered diorite on the northeast pit margin that contained massive magnetite hosted in fractures and present with clots and disseminated chalcopyrite. The Company is currently awaiting approval from EMLI for its Multi-Year Area Based (MYAB) permit submitted earlier this year, which will allow the Company to explore several mineral showings and prospects to depth. In the meantime, a core relogging program is underway in conjunction with alteratio surface outcrop mapping and sampling. CC-21-78 intersected 11.5m grading 2.19% Cu within 71.5 m grading 0.38% Cu demonstrating the mineralized potential in a largely untested area between the Craigmont pit and previous intercepts (DDH-THU-002: 85.6m at 1.11% Cu and NC-2018-03: 100.6m grading 1.33% Cu) approximately 800 m to the west of historic mining operations. CC-21-79 intersected 71.35 m grading 0.29% Cu within 130.35m grading 0.21% Cu, whereby showing the mineralized potential not recovered during historic mining operations. Announcement • May 13
Nicola Mining Commences Phase 1 Exploration at the New Craigmont Copper Project Nicola Mining Inc. announced that it has commenced Phase 1 exploration drilling at its 100% owned New Craigmont Copper Project, located near Merritt, BC, and 33 km south of the Highland Valley porphyry district. Phase 1 will be composed of approximately 2,000m of diamond drilling that primarily targets two magnetic anomalies: Target 1: A largely unexplored magnetic anomaly located west and adjacent to the historic pit. Previous drilling on the western margin of this anomaly intercepted 85.6m at 1.11% Cu (DDH-THU-002) and 100.6m grading 1.33% Cu (NC-2018-03). Target 2: Surface outcropping high-grade copper and iron mineralization with a corresponding magnetic anomaly extending to depth located immediately northeast of the historic Craigmont mine. Magnetic vector inversion modeling appears to indicate that the previous copper intercepts at Target 1 intercepted the western fringe of a mineralized anomaly, characterized by intervals of massive chalcopyrite and magnetite mineralization. Phase 1 drilling will step out eastwardly across the anomaly, which continues for approximately 650m from the previous intercepts. Target 2 is defined by massive magnetite and chalcopyrite skarn mineralization outcropping immediately adjacent to the open pit. This target is located at a depth of ~200m and is adjacent to historic underground mine workings. Announcement • Apr 25

Nicola Mining Inc. Announces 2021 Exploration Objectives at New Craigmont Copper Project Nicola Mining Inc. to provide a 2021 exploration outline at its wholly-owned New Craigmont Copper Project, located near Merritt, BC, and 33 km south of the Highland Valley Copper porphyry district. In 2020, the Company filed for a multi-year area-based ("MYAB") exploration permit that would allow it to move forward on a five-year exploration plan. Additional to the MYAB application, the Company continues to actively integrate historic data into its geological models. The ongoing desktop work is expected to improve the quality and accuracy of the "target development" and "target confirmation" stages of its exploration pipeline approach. The 2021 program ("2021 Program") includes up to 21 drill holes (8520 metres1), five new trenches and the reactivation of 6 historic trenches. Diamond drilling will focus on testing the contact aureole between the Guichon Creek Batholith and the Nicola Group along an extensive alteration corridor in areas displaying an anomalous magnetic response, interpreted to be semi-massive magnetite-chalcopyrite mineralization. The 2021 season will comprise of two phases of drilling, with the second phase contingent on the results of phase one. A trenching program is aimed at developing three target areas where copper occurrences have been observed but not drill tested. Favorable results these trenches may be followed up by a small drill program to test the depth extent of mineralization encountered at surface. The first phase of drilling is designed to test four target areas (Figure 1), with the best results being followed up in phase two. Target "A": A magnetic anomaly along strike to the east of the Craigmont Open Pit. Semi-massive magnetite-chalcopyrite skarn outcrops east of the Open Pit; The target is located at a depth of 200m, adjacent to historic underground mine workings; Two 200 m long diamond drill holes will test this magnetic bulb near a diorite plug. Target "B": Magnetic Vector Inversion modelling of airborne magnetic data suggests a magnetic body with approximate dimensions of 700 m west, 50 m north, and is located 300 m below surface; Holes THU-002 (85.92m @ 1.11% Cu) and NC-2018-03 (100.6m @ 1.33% Cu) drilled by Nicola intersected a magnetic anomaly that warrants additional testing; These show strong correlation with the magnetic vector inversions2, the magnetic susceptibility, and the occurrence of magnetite-chalcopyrite-actinolite-epidote skarn; This area is interpreted to be the right-lateral (i.e., northward) displacement of the Craigmont Skarn (toward the Embayment zone); Three 500m diamond drill holes aim to test this magnetic zone eastward, toward the Craigmont Open Pit. Target "C": A 700 m long diamond drill hole will test magnetic anomaly interpreted as a pipe-like body connected to a deeper magnetic body hosted in Nicola Group near the Guichon Lake Batholith contact. Target "D": A series of short 100m diamond drill holes are will test beneath the "CAS" showing, a magnetite-chalcopyrite breccia hosted by diorite identified during the 2017 geological mapping campaign; This target lies on the southeast trending corridor of high magnetic intensity with the "MARB" showing on the northwestern margin.

Nicola Mining Inc. Announces Results of Phase Two Soil Samples At Treasure Mountain and Completion of the 2020 Exploration Program Nicola Mining Inc. announced that it has received assay results from 167 soil samples collected during Phase Two of the 2020 Program at its wholly owned Treasure Mountain Property, a fully-permitted high grade silver mine located approximately 90 minutes to its Craigmont Mill. The soil samples were consistently collected from the B-horizon. The Second Phase of the Program ("Phase Two") extended the 2019 and 2020 soil grid eastward along the northern slope of Treasure Mountain. These results conclude the 2020 Program, which was successful in identifying a semi-continuous ~2km long northeast trending silver soil anomaly. Highlights of the assay results include the following: From a total of 167 samples: Six were anomalous in silver ranging from 1000- 3670 ppb; Three samples were anomalous in zinc with a maximum value of 308 ppm; One sample was anomalous in lead with a maximum value of 216.5 ppm. The anomalous silver values in soils are co-incidental with outcrop of exposed sphalerite (ZnS)-galena (PbS) vein material that was tested with a portable drill during Phase One Program. The results of this portable drilling confirmed that silver mineralization is associated with these galena and sphalerite bearing veins exposed at surface. The silver, lead and zinc soil anomalies are spatially associated with one another, suggesting little dispersion. The source of this soil anomaly is interpreted to be at shallow depth along this trend. Further work is required to prove that the vein is continuous along this anomalous soil trend. The weakening of the soil anomaly toward the east of the soil grid suggests that these mineralized veins may not occur at surface to the east. The Company plans to include the area of anomalous silver, lead and zinc into a multi-year exploration permit and will work toward further testing of this soil anomaly. Announcement • Dec 16

Nicola Mining Inc. Receives Assay Results from All 14 Portable Drill Holes Nicola Mining Inc. announced that it has received assay results from all 14 portable drill holes. These drill holes tested the recently identified 1.2 km mineralized trend during Phase One of the 2020 Program 1 at its wholly owned Treasure Mountain Property, a fully- permitted high grade silver mine located approximately 90 minutes to its Craigmont Mill. The drilling was done at five locations along the approximately 1.2 km mineralized trend. These results are the first known drill results along this structure. These demonstrate this vein system contains silver, trace gold and copper. Several historic mine adits were identified proximal to some of the outcrop vein exposures, but the extent and age of these workings is unknown. Despite the narrow vein widths intersected in this drilling, the apparent strike length is significant. The results from the drilling are interpreted to be the source of the soil anomaly defining a potential 1.2km mineralized trend, identified in the 2019 and 2020 Phase One Soil Programs. Additionally, the soil anomaly extends 700m along a more west-east trend within the Paysayten Group, where no mineralized outcrop has been identified.
