Wollastonite Deposit
VANCOUVER, BC / February 21st, 2019 / VERTICAL EXPLORATION INC. (TSX-V: VERT)
("Vertical" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that it has commenced a diamond drilling and
sampling program on its advanced stage St-Onge-Wollastonite Deposit located approximately 90
kilometres Northwest of the city of Saguenay, in St-Onge township, in the Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean region
of Quebec, Canada.
The program will consist of 23 holes and an estimated 1850 meters of drilling in total. Assay samples will
be taken from the NQ Core and split in half on site, with one half being sent to COREM’s lab facilities in
Quebec City and the other half being retained for future reference at Vertical’s fully secured facilities in
Saguenay Quebec. A strict quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program will be applied to all
samples, including mineralized certified samples, blank samples and duplicate sample for each batch of
15 samples taken.
The drilling program will provide Vertical with important mineral data that will allow the Company to
further update its NI 43-101 Technical report and aggressively move forward with its plans to begin
quarry permitting process on its St-Onge-Wollastonite Deposit. Drilling results will be announced when
received.
The diamond drilling program will be supervised by Jean-Paul Barrette, P.Geo from the Company’s
geological team.
