Fort St. James Nickel Corp. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:FTJ) is pleased to announced diamond drill results for six holes (813 metres total) completed in November and December 2011 at the 100% owned Kilometre 26 project located in central British Columbia. All six holes spaced at an average of 400 metres apart (excepting K-11-1b which was re-drilled after K-11-1 was lost), intersected nickel mineralized serpentinized ultramafic rock throughout their full lengths with all holes ending in nickel mineralization. Five of the six holes were well mineralized with excellent nickel values throughout while one hole was well mineralized near its bottom. Nickel content of samples reaches a high of 3,048 ppm (0.30%). The distribution of the six holes extends 1,700 metres in a north south direction and approximately 500 metres in an east west direction within a geophysical target (total magnetic field high) that is more than 7 kilometres in length. The following table summarizes the results: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- From - To Nickel Chrome Cobalt Magnesium Sulfur Hole (Interval m) % ppm ppm % % ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- K-11-1 34.0-72.0 0.22 1,191 102 21.7 less than 0.05 (38.0m) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- K-11-1b 34.5-88.0 0.21 1,123 102 21.4 less than 0.05 (53.5m) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- K-11-2 33.0-200.0 0.21 1,160 101 21.3 less than 0.05 (167.0m) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- K-11-3 62.0-174.0 0.04 678 64 4.1 0.07 (112m) including 168-174m 0.16 1,528 92 7.7 0.09 (6m) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- K-11-4 13.5-171.0 0.20 1,103 98 22.0 less than 0.05 (157.5) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- K-11-5 54.0-108.0 0.20 1,006 100 21.1 less than 0.05 (54.0) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Overburden Last Sample Number Hole (To m) Hole Bottom (m) (Ni %) of Samples ------------------------------------------------------------------ K-11-1 34.0 72.0 0.22 19 ------------------------------------------------------------------ K-11-1b 34.5 88.0 0.22 27 ------------------------------------------------------------------ K-11-2 33.0 200.0 0.21 83 ------------------------------------------------------------------ K-11-3 62.0 174.0 0.17 56 ------------------------------------------------------------------ K-11-4 13.5 171.0 0.20 78 ------------------------------------------------------------------ K-11-5 54.0 108.0 0.24 54 ------------------------------------------------------------------ The high magnesium values are interpreted to reflect an initial high content of olivine which during serpentinization allowed nickel alloy and nickel sulfide to partition from the rock. The low sulfur content is interpreted to suggest that sulfide nickel is relatively minor. Kilometre 26 is interpreted to contain a nickel mineralized ultramafic assemblage similar to the nearby Decar Project being explored by First Point Minerals Corp. and Cliffs Natural Resources Exploration Canada Inc. (30 km distant) and the Dumont project located in Quebec being developed by Royal Nickel Corporation. First Point and Cliffs have announced a recovery concept for the Decar Project that would recover nickel alloy using a magnetic recovery process (+/-64.0% Ni recovery reported). Royal Nickel has announced a recovery concept for the Dumont Project that would recover nickel alloy using a magnetic recovery process and high nickel content sulfide using a floatation process (+/-65.5% Ni recovery reported). Both nickel alloy and nickel sulfide occur at Kilometre 26 although the exact proportions of each is currently the subject of ongoing research. Scanning electron microscope work completed on surface rubble samples in 2011 identified both awaruite (nickel alloy) with an average nickel content of 81% and pentlandite (nickel sulfide) with an average nickel content of 35%. Other sulfide minerals were essentially non existent. Preliminary metallurgical work currently being completed by SGS Minerals Services in Burnaby, BC, has concluded that as much as 48.8% of the nickel in Kilometre 26 rubble samples reports to a magnetic concentrator (Ni alloy). SGS is still determining the proportion of sulfide nickel. The results reported above are total nickel which includes silicate, alloy and sulfide forms of the element. Analyses were performed by Acme Analytical Laboratories of Vancouver using a four acid digestion procedure. Drilling is expected to resume at Kilometre 26 towards the end of February while metallurgical work continues. The Kilometre 26 Project encompasses 9,819 hectares (24,263 acres), located in the Omineca Mining Division of British Colombia near the community of Fort St. James approximately two and a half hours by highway from the city of Prince George. Due to the relatively low elevation of the Kilometre 26 property and its excellent access, exploration programs can be carried out year-round. Kilometre 26 is accessed by an all-season arterial logging road. J.W.
