State and Federal Lawmakers
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 1, 2023) - Visionary Metals Corp. (TSXV:
VIZ) ("
Visionary
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to announce that it has completed over 3,000 metres
("m") of reverse circulation ("RC") drilling at its King Solomon nickel project ("
King Solomon
" or the
"
Project
") in Central Wyoming. Drilling is expected to continue through early November with the goal of
completing 3,500 m of exploration drilling in 2023.
Additionally, Visionary recently hosted a delegation, including field representatives from the offices of US
Senators Barasso and Lummis and Congresswoman Hagemen; representatives from the Wyoming
State Legislature; and members of the Wyoming Energy Authority, for an introduction to, and tour of, the
King Solomon project.
King Solomon Exploration Highlights
Identified 1,500 m by 600 m wide low-resistivity, moderate chargeability gradient geophysical
anomaly, indicative of the target sulfide mineralization.
Discovery hole KS22-003 intercepted 44m of 0.23% nickel, including 17m of 0.43% nickel and
226 parts per million ("ppm") cobalt in shallow portions of the geophysical anomaly.
Petrographic analysis identified class-one (battery-grade) nickel sulfide within ultramafic host rock.
Discovery made in an area with significant permanent infrastructure, including haul roads, high
tension electrical lines and natural gas pipelines, installed for previous nearby uranium mining
CEO Wes Adams commented: "We are excited to report on progress of our drill program at King
Solomon, which represents a big step toward unlocking Wyoming's potential for strategic and critical
minerals like nickel and cobalt.
It was a pleasure to meet with state and federal lawmakers and to
introduce them to our emerging project, while providing an overview of Wyoming's geologic potential for
these critical and strategic minerals." Adams continued: "We are already utilizing state and federally
funded geologic research by the United States Geologic Survey and Wyoming Geologic Survey, which
contributed to Wyoming's first nickel-cobalt discovery at King Solomon and we look forward to
interacting with both agencies and our lawmakers as we make more exploration progress."
Visionary's 2023 drill program is designed to target sulfide nickel-cobalt mineralization at Visionary's
King Solomon Project in Central Wyoming, where a nickel-cobalt discovery was announced in Q2, 2023
