About VanadiumCorp Resource Inc.

VanadiumCorp is a Canadian Critical metals exploration company owning 100% of two

strategic properties in Quebec: The Iron T and the flagship Lac Doré property. The

company is advancing innovative technologies to extract vanadium -titanium and

potentially high-grade iron from its vanadiferous titanomagnetite projects. The successful

implementation of these technologies is expected to ensure a stable, long-term supply of

the company's critical metal deposits, which include vanadium feedstock for electrolyte

production. Our initial electrolyte facility, located in Val-des-Sources, Quebec, will serve a

dual purpose: evaluating the quality of the outputs and facilitating the initial production
