First Vanadium Resumes Drilling on its Gold Target in the Carlin Gold Trend, Nevada

November 6, 2020 - Vancouver, British Columbia – First Vanadium Corp. (TSX-V: FVAN) (OTCQX®: FVANF)

(FSE: 1PY) (“First Vanadium” or the “ Company”) is pleased to announce that the Company has resumed

reverse circulation drilling on its gold target below the vanadium resource on its Carlin Vanadium -Gold

Property on the Carlin Gold Trend in Nevada. The gold target was identified by renowned geologist and mine-

finder Dave Mathewson, a former Newmont Regional Exploration Manager who is the Company’s Geological

Advisor and is the Qualified Person spearheading and supervising the gold drilling program.

On November 2, 2020, the Company announced, that from its first reverse circulation drill hole, it had

confirmed the presence of a large-scale Carlin-type gold system on the property. On the strength of those

results, drilling has resumed with multiple holes planned, now shifting to assess the extent and intensity of

the system and to begin vectoring towards its heart. The drilling will apply Mr. Mathewson’s gold model shown

in the November 2, 2020 press release.

About First Vanadium Corp.

First Vanadium has an option to earn a 100% interest in the Carlin Vanadium Project, located in Elko County,

6 miles south from the town of Carlin, Nevada and Highway I-80. The Carlin Vanadium Project hosts the Carlin

Vanadium deposit. A positive PEA on the vanadium resource was announced May 11, 2020.

Approximately 9 million ounces comprised of multiple gold deposits, including past producing mines, are

present near the FVAN property (5-15km). The Gold Target on the FVAN property is supported by compelling

science: a north -south structure with coincident gravity high and a 2km x 600m Carlin deposit -type

hydrothermal alteration system (dolomite, gold, pathfinder metals, silicification) on FVAN property - all very

typical of Carlin deposit-type plumbing system and gold deposits.
