\n Homeland Nickel Inc. (“Homeland” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: SHL, OTC: SRCGF) and Patriot Nickel Corp (“Patriot”) are pleased to announce the appointment of SLR International Corporation (“SLR”) for exploration permitting support on the Cleopatra and Red Flat nickel laterite properties, located in Southern Oregon.\n <\/p>\n\n

SLR will also assist in our permitting for 2027 in which we will increase our exploration to a 300 x 300-foot grid and to a vertical depth exceeding 50 feet. We have a plan to define our existing resources and convert them into reserves as part of a bankable feasibility study.
