Palladium One Discovers New High-Grade Nickel – Copper Zone 3.5 kms from the Smoke Lake Zone, Tyko Nickel – Copper Project, Canada

Highlights

  • New High-Grade discovery (“Ember Zone”) located 3.5 kilometers southwest of the Smoke Lake Zone
  • Multiple near surface drill intercepts of high-grade nickel – copper mineralization Including:
    • 6.9 meters grading 1.1% Ni, 0.3% Cu (Hole TK22-104)
      • Including 1.9 meters grading 2.0% Ni, 0.4% Cu
    • 5.3 meters grading 0.7% Ni, 0.8% Cu (Hole TK22-100)
      • Including 1.5 meters grading 2.0% Ni, 2.8% Cu
  • Ember Zone is located adjacent to a greater than six (6) kilometer long interpreted Chonolith / Feeder Dyke that is on strike with the Cupa Lake Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic airborne (“VTEM”) anomaly.
    • Cupa Lake also hosts coincident strong nickel and copper soil anomalies.
  • Chonolith / Feeder Dyke geological model continues to be confirmed.

Toronto, Ontario, Mar 27, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – Palladium One Mining Inc. (TSXV: PDM) (OTCQB: NKORF) (FSE: 7N11) (the “Company” or “Palladium One“) is pleased to report the discovery of a new high-grade nickel – copper zone (“Ember Zone“) which is located 3.5 kilometers southwest of the Smoke Lake Zone (Figure 1) on the Tyko nickel – copper project, in Ontario, Canada (“Tyko Project“).

“The discovery of another high-grade nickel – copper zone at Tyko further supports our thesis that we have a significant new nickel camp on our hands. The Ember Zone exhibits many similarities to the nearby Smoke Lake Zone and other high-grade nickel – copper zones on the Tyko Project. Notably the Ember Zone is adjacent to an extensive interpreted Chonolith, which is on strike with the Cupa Lake VTEM / soil anomalies, suggesting Ember may be part of much larger mineralizing system,” commented Derrick Weyrauch, President and Chief Executive Officer.

The Ember Zone was first identified by a moderate two line VTEM anomaly in 2021 (see the Company’s news release dated October 28, 2021), reconnaissance soil sampling returned weakly anomalous nickel values up to 42 parts per million (“ppm“), and copper values up to 30 ppm (Figure 2). The weak geophysical and soil anomalies of the Ember Zone resulted in it being drill tested during Q4 2022, Its discovery reinforces the notion that any VTEM anomaly and even weak soil anomalies can point to high-grade nickel – copper mineralization on the Tyko Project.

Notably the Ember Zone is located just north of an interpreted lengthy east-west trending Chonolith / Feeder Dyke structure which is on strike with the Cupa Lake VTEM / soil anomaly (Figure 2). Cupa Lake represents a multi-line VTEM anomaly and a strong soil anomaly with values up to 132 ppm nickel and 512 ppm copper. Cupa Lake is a priority drill target which has an outstanding Exploration Permit application.

The geometry of the Ember Zone is not fully delineated, drilling to date was focused on defining the zone at shallow depths as the conductor’s orientation was poorly defined by the airborne VTEM survey. Thus far, the zone appears to form a southwest plunging body toward the interpreted Chonolith / Feeder Dyke structure located to the South (Figure 3). Hole TK22-108 was drilled as a Bore Hole ElectroMagnetic (“BHEM“) geophysical platform but deviated from the interpreted plunge of the zone. A BHEM survey is planned in Q2 2023 to better define the VTEM conductor and search for potential conductors at depth.

The 2022 drill program consisted of 70 holes totaling 13,038 meters, of which 14 holes are pending assay results. The 2023 field season is currently underway, with a high-resolution magnetic survey having been completed. The survey was designed to refine the geometry of the interpreted feeder dykes / chonoliths across the Tyko Project’s 30-kilometer strike length prior to additional drill testing. The 2023 exploration program will continue to focus on these newly identified and interpreted Chonolith / Feeder Dyke structures on the 30,000-hectare Tyko Project (Figure 1).

Dazz Selected as Finalist for RSA Conference 2023 Innovation Sandbox Contest

PALO ALTO, CA, Mar 23, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – Dazz, the leader in cloud security remediation, has been named one of 10 finalists for the RSA Conference(TM) 2023 Innovation Sandbox contest for its work delivering the Dazz Remediation Cloud SaaS platform. Dazz will present its technology to a panel of renowned industry judges and a live in-person audience on Monday, April 24 at RSA Conference 2023 in San Francisco.

Since 2005, the RSAC Innovation Sandbox has served as a platform for the most promising young cybersecurity companies to showcase their groundbreaking technologies and compete for the title of "Most Innovative Startup." The competition is widely recognized as a catapult for success and the top 10 finalists have collectively celebrated 75 acquisitions and received $12.5 billion in investments over the last 18 years. Dazz will have three minutes to pitch to the panel of judges before a question-and-answer round.

"The RSA Conference Innovation Sandbox contest is one of the most exciting highlights of the week as we get to watch 10 of the cybersecurity industry's best and brightest up-and-coming stars shine on stage with provocative and cutting-edge ideas," said Linda Gray Martin, Senior Vice President, RSA Conference. "The demanding challenges and threats we face are only getting more complex in both size and severity, and we need smart, determined and skilled individuals and companies to make an impact and help tackle what lies ahead."

The Dazz Remediation Cloud is a SaaS platform that accelerates cloud-native remediation and risk reduction for security and development teams. The company's patented Root Cause Analysis engine uniquely analyzes data collected from the entire architecture to learn which cloud resource caused the issue seen in the cloud security tool, trace the issue back to the pipeline that was used to deploy it, and discover what triggered its build. Through the Dazz platform, security teams can quickly uncover the commit and developer who applied the change, and then share root cause context for faster, more efficient developer remediation-without any changes to the architecture. As a result, teams are able to quickly uncover blind spots in the CI/CD pipeline, shrink alert backlog, and streamline fixes right in the developer's workflow.

Dazz emerged out of stealth in December 2021, while announcing $60 million in funding. Its investors include some of the world's most prominent venture capital firms, such as Insight Partners, Greylock, Index Ventures, and Cyberstarts. The company already counts 25 of the Fortune 500 as customers.

"We improve the lives of cloud security and development teams by taking the pain and inefficiency out of the manual remediation process," said Merav Bahat, co-founder and CEO of Dazz. "Instead of chasing a never-ending backlog, security teams can now rapidly prioritize the issues that matter most and communicate fixes with context to developers. On average, our customers experience MTTR improvements of 90%, their security and development teams collaborate better together with less friction, and achieve zero criticals within hours."

The RSAC Innovation Sandbox contest kicks off at 12:00 p.m. PT on April 24, and winners will be announced at 3:00 p.m. the same day. The panel of renowned expert judges includes Niloofar Howe, Sr. Operating Partner at Energy Impact Partners; Paul Kocher, Independent Researcher; Shlomo Kramer, Co-founder and CEO, Cato Networks; Barmak Meftah, Co-Founder & General Partner at Ballistic Ventures; and Christopher Young, Executive Vice President of Business Development Strategy and Ventures at Microsoft. Hugh Thompson, Program Committee Chair of RSA Conference, will return to host the contest.
