About Titanium Corporation Inc.
Titanium's CVW™ technology provides sustainable solutions to reduce the environmental footprint of the oil sands industry. Our
technology reduces the environmental impact of oil sands tailings while economically recovering valuable products that would otherwise be
lost. CVW™ recovers bitumen, solvents and minerals from tailings, preventing these commodities from entering tailings ponds and the
atmosphere; volatile organic compound and greenhouse gas emissions are materially reduced; hot tailings water is improved in quality for
recycling; and residual tailings can be remediated more readily. A new minerals industry will be created commencing with the production
and export of zircon (an essential ingredient in ceramics) and other titanium based minerals. The Company's shares trade on the TSX
Venture Exchange under the symbol "TIC". For more information, please visit the Company's website at www.titaniumcorporation.com.
