Introducing Nickel 28's New Leadership: a Strategic Shift for Success
The mining world is at a pivot point, between soaring net-zero demands, geopolitical shifts and huge energy demands from Artificial Intelligence. Nickel will be a metal at the centre of this transition.
And so, Nickel 28 is announcing new leadership to prepare the company for this new future.
Meet Mr. Christopher S. Wallace, our Interim Chief Executive Officer

With decades of experience across the critical mineral industry and other public corporate directorships, Mr. Wallace has a deep understanding of the opportunities ahead.
"At Nickel 28, we stand at the forefront of a transformative era for the mining industry. As we navigate the complexities of the energy transition and fast-evolving global market dynamics, our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and operational excellence remains unwavering. I am privileged to lead this exceptional team and excited about the possibilities that lie ahead" — Christopher S. Wallace, Interim Chief Executive Officer
Mr. Wallace is Managing Director of CCC Investment Banking, a mid-market investment bank that is involved in mergers and acquisitions, financings, valuations and provides fairness and expert opinions. He is an experienced corporate director and currently sits on the board of GoviEx Uranium Inc., the fifth largest publicly-traded uranium company by resource size in the world. Mr. Wallace also serves as Chair of the audit committee and as a member of the human resources and compensation committee of the board of GoviEx Uranium Inc.
As a current member of the company's Board, appointed as part of the reconstitution undertaken last year, as well as chair of the company's Audit Committee, Mr. Wallace is able to hit the ground running with strategic initiatives for the company's long-term goals.

"Nickel 28 will play a crucial role in the global nickel and mining industry over the next decade, and so I am committed to ensuring the company is positioned to meet both the opportunities and challenges towards a successful future" — Mr. Brett Richards, Director & Advisor to the CEO and Board
