About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Nicola Mining Announces Plan for 2026 Drilling Exploration at Treasure Mountain Silver Project

By: Newsfile

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 15, 2025) - Nicola Mining Inc. (TSXV: NIM) (OTCQB: HUSIF) (FSE: HLIA) (the "Company" or "Nicola") is pleased to provide an update on preparation work conducted during 2025 on the Treasure Mountain Silver Project ("Treasure Mountain") and its plan for 2026 exploration drilling program ("2026 TM Program"). The 2026 TM Program is the culmination of an airborne magnetic geophysical survey (conducted by Scott Hogg & Associates Ltd. in 2012), extensive soil sampling programs over multiple years, and 2025 field reconnaissance. Treasure Mountain is a permitted silver mine located 30 km northeast of Hope and about a 3-hour drive from Vancouver, British Columbia. Treasure Mountain was an operating mine but was put into care and maintenance in 2013[1], due to depressed silver prices and has always been a core asset to Nicola, which has been strategically waiting for higher silver prices.

As previously announced in the Company's June 9, 2025 news release, Nicola received a multi-year area-based exploration permit (the "MYAB Permit"), allowing the Company to conduct diamond drilling and trenching at Treasure Mountain. In addition to receipt of MYAB Permit, the Company received a ten year mine lease extension (through April 26, 2032; announced on August 30, 2024), further bolstering the attractiveness of re-opening Treasure Mountain.

The area of exploration interest is northwest of the currently suspended mine (Fig. 1) and consists of several northeast-southwest trending and steeply dipping sulphide-rich veins (Fig. 2). Photos exhibited in Figure 2 are associated with 2025 field reconnaissance focused on establishing the 2026 TM Program drill targets.

Initial interest in this area was driven by Coeur Mining's ("Coeur")[2] (NYSE: CDE) (TSX: CDM) 2012 investment into the Company giving it a 12.7% ownership at time of investment. Coeur purchased shares at a price of $1.08 ($20.6 when considering subsequent rollbacks)[3].

Previous exploration work along this trend is limited to six percussion holes totaling 274m in 1994 and 14 "backpack drill" holes totaling 25m in 2020. Widespread soil sampling was also conducted in 2019 and 2020. Limited rock samples were collected in 2020 and 2021. The most recent exploration along this trend (sampling conducted by Nicola in 2021) is described in Assessment Report #39721 (available on ARIS[4]). Results from these programs are encouraging and demonstrate the presence of vein-hosted silver, copper, lead, zinc and gold. This provides support for initial diamond drilling to establish the width of the trend and mineralization at depth. Currently mineralization is present on surface and open in all directions.

Peter Espig, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Recently we have garnered accelerated interest from both investors and strategics that have become increasingly excited about Treasure Mountain. At Nicola, we have always been aware of its significant potential, as highlighted by Coeur's investment in the Company at a time prior to Nicola securing ownership of New Craigmont Copper Project and commencing gold production and pre-investment in Dominion Gold Project. In addition to these other projects, for the past decade we have continued to review, maintain and explore Treasure Mountain, which is more than an exploration project but is a fully permitted mine that can be reopened. We continue to review all possibilities and are excited for the 2026 TM Program."
