OVERVIEW
SISSON PROJECT
Northcliff Resources Ltd. holds an 88.5% controlling interest in and is the operator of the advanced-stage Sisson Tungsten-Molybdenum Project in New Brunswick. The Sisson Project has the potential to become a near-term critical metal producer, providing new primary supply of tungsten and molybdenum to North American, European and Asian markets. Todd Corporation (Todd) of New Zealand has an 11.5% interest and Northcliff an 88.5% interest in the Sisson Partnership, which owns the Sisson Project. Todd also holds a 76.63% interest in Northcliff. More information on Todd can be found at https://toddcorporation.com/
The 14,140-hectare Sisson property hosts a large, structurally controlled, intrusion-related tungsten-molybdenum deposit amenable to open pit mining. Northcliff announced the positive results of the Sisson Project Feasibility Study in January 2013 and since then the Sisson Project has received numerous key approvals.
The current focus is to secure construction and operating permits, off-take agreements and project financing.
