Canada Refers Crawford Nickel Project to Major Projects Office, Announced in Timmins on 13 November
Canada Nickel Company announced on 14 November 2025 that its flagship Crawford Nickel Project has been officially referred to the Major Projects Office by the Government of Canada. The announcement was made by Tim Hodgson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, on 13 November 2025 at the company's Timmins regional headquarters.
'Canada's future depends on delivery today. By investing in critical minerals and nation-building infrastructure, we are laying the foundation for an economy that is stronger, more resilient, and built to lead in a low-carbon world,' Minister Hodgson said.
The company said it looks forward to working with the government and the Major Projects Office to unlock the financing and permitting necessary to break ground and begin construction by the end of next year. The project's technical basis is the NI 43-101 Technical Report and Feasibility Study prepared by Ausenco Engineering Canada Inc.
