Anfield Engages Engineering Firm for Anticipated Resource Upgrade at Slick Rock
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 02, 2024 – Anfield Energy Inc. (TSX.V: AEC; OTCQB: ANLDF;
FRANKFURT: 0AD) (“Anfield” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce that it is to engage BRS, Inc., an
engineering firm, to complete an updated uranium and vanadium resource for its Slick Rock property.
The Company previously received final approvals for its drill permit application to commence a 20-hole,
20,000-foot rotary drill program at its Slick Rock uranium and vanadium project, located in San Miguel
County, Colorado. Anfield is in the process of securing a local drilling contractor, after which it will
commence its 20-hole drill program at Slick Rock. Once the drill program is complete, Anfield plans to
both secure a large mine permit for this property and use the drill results to upgrade its uranium and
vanadium resource for Slick Rock as found in its existing PEA.
Corey Dias, Anfield’s CEO commented: “We are very pleased to bring BRS onboard as we advance our
Slick Rock project. BRS previously completed a PEA for a combination of our Slick Rock, Velvet-Wood and
Shootaring mill projects; therefore, leveraging that experience with the Company’s Slick Rock project –
post-drilling – to both confirm existing historical results and provide an updated uranium and vanadium
resource is warranted. As we aim to meet the criteria for a large mine permit, followed by a Plan of
Operations, we intend to align the development timelines of both the Slick Rock and Velvet-Wood mines.
Our aim is to have both ready for production prior to the restart of the Shootaring Canyon mill, with
initial feed ready for transport once the mill is ready to receive it.”
Additionally, the Company announces that a Director has provided a one-year loan of $1.65 million, with
an effective annual interest rate of 10%, for working capital purposes. The loan is considered a “related
party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority
Securityholders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company has relied on the exemptions from
the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to
subsections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as the loan does not exceed 25% of the Company’s market
capitalization.

About Anfield
Anfield is a uranium and vanadium development and near-term production company that is committed
to becoming a top-tier energy-related fuels supplier by creating value through sustainable, efficient
growth in its assets. Anfield is a publicly traded corporation listed on the TSX-Venture Exchange (AEC-V),
the OTCQB Marketplace (ANLDF) and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (0AD). Anfield is focused on its
conventional asset centre, as summarized below:
Arizona/Utah/Colorado – Shootaring Canyon Mill
A key asset in Anfield’s portfolio is the Shootaring Canyon Mill in Garfield County, Utah. The Shootaring
Canyon Mill is strategically located within one of the historically most prolific uranium production areas
in the United States, and is one of only three licensed uranium mills in the United States.
Anfield’s conventional uranium assets consist of mining claims and state leases in southeastern Utah,
Colorado, and Arizona, targeting areas where past uranium mining or prospecting occurred. Anfield’s
conventional uranium assets include the Velvet-Wood Project, the Frank M Uranium Project, the West
Slope Project, as well as the Findlay Tank breccia pipe. A NI 43-101 PEA has been completed for the
Velvet-Wood Project. The PEA is preliminary in nature, and includes inferred mineral resources that are
considered too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would
enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves and, resultantly, there is no certainty that the
included preliminary economic assessment would be realized. All conventional uranium assets are
situated within a 200-mile radius of the Shootaring Mill.
