State of Wyoming is Proactive in Approach to Aid Uranium Companies Along Path to

Production

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- GLOBAL NEWSWIRE – OCTOBER 2, 2018 — Anfield Energy Inc.

(TSX.V: AEC; OTCQB: ANLDF; FRANKFURT: 0AD) (“Anfield” or “the Company”) is pleased to learn that

Wyoming Governor, Matt Mead, signed an agreement with the United States Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (NRC) which gives the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) the authority

to regulate uranium recovery operations in Wyoming. With this approval, Wyoming becomes the 38th

state to receive Agreement State status.

Governor Mead stated, “Wyoming DEQ has done a great job ensuring that all the program requirements

have been met and will continue to be effectively implemented. I thank the NRC and DEQ for standing

this program up quickly and cost efficiently.”

This is a significant – and positive – development for Anfield. Under the Wyoming DEQ approval

process, the Company will be able to advance the Charlie Project more quickly upon the expected

closing of the transaction with Cotter Corporation.

As reported in our previous news release, dated September 5, 2018, the recently-announced resource

estimate for the Charlie Project includes:

• an Indicated Mineral Resource of 1,260,000 tons of mineralized material with an average grade

of 0.123% eU3O8 (equivalent to an Indicated Resource of 3,100,000 pounds of eU3O8); and

• an Inferred Mineral Resource of 558,000 tons of mineralized material with an average grade of

0.125% eU3O8 (equivalent to an Inferred Resource of 1,400,000 pounds of eU3O8); and

• an Exploration Target ranging from 280,000 to 680,000 tons with an average grade ranging

from 0.090 to 0.151 %eU3O8 (equivalent to an Exploration Target ranging from 500,000 to

1,300,000 pounds of eU3O8).

Corey Dias, Anfield CEO, states, “We are very pleased to see Wyoming achieve Agreement State status.

This is critical as it will allow for an even faster path to the licensing and permitting of projects, similar to

what we have experienced in Utah. Moreover, it creates a much more straightforward path towards

potential production for our 25 Wyoming-based uranium projects, including the Charlie Project, as the

timeline for licensing and permitting is expected to decrease in this new environment. As a reminder,

Charlie is the focus of Anfield’s near-term ISR production strategy. Anfield’s near-term goal of creating a

uranium production complex in Wyoming through the combination of Charlie and Anfield’s resin

processing agreement with Uranium One is strengthened by this news”.

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 two

production centres, as summarized below:

Wyoming – Irigaray ISR Processing Plant (Resin Processing Agreement)

Anfield has signed a Resin Processing Agreement with Uranium One whereby Anfield would process up

to 500,000 pounds per annum of its mined material at Uranium One’s Irigaray processing plant in

Wyoming. In addition, the Company can both buy and borrow uranium from Uranium One in order to

fulfill some or all of its sales contracts.

Anfield’s 24 ISR mining projects are located in the Black Hills, Powder River Basin, Great Divide Basin,

Laramie Basin, Shirley Basin and Wind River Basin areas in Wyoming. Anfield’s three projects in

Wyoming for which NI 43-101 resource reports have been completed are Nine Mile Lake, Red Rim and

Clarkson Hill.

The Charlie Project is located in the Powder River Basin in Wyoming near an existing uranium ISR mine

and operating oilfields which have an infrastructure of roads and power lines. Previous owners and

operators of the Charlie Project have conducted sufficient exploration drilling to delineate a portion of a

major roll-front system which crosses the property and continues on to adjacent lands. As a result of this

previous work, a database of over 1,300 drill holes is available as well as several hydrological, analytical

and mineralogical reports. Previous reports have shown that the uranium mineralization underlying the

Charlie Project exist as narrow and sinuous multiple roll-fronts which are commonly developed in the

Tertiary sedimentary formations of the Powder River Basin. Roll-fronts of this type are currently mined

by ISR methods on the adjacent Christensen Ranch Project and further south at Smith Ranch/Highland.

Arizona/Utah – 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

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, as well as the Findlay

Tank breccia pipe. An NI 43-101 Preliminary Economic Assessment has been completed for the Velvet-

Wood Project. All conventional uranium assets are situated within a 125-mile radius of the Shootaring

Mill.
