Corporate Updates

VANADIUMCORP OPENS EUROPEAN OFFICE

in FRANKFURT AM MAIN, GERMANY

NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO U.S. PERSONS OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES.

Vancouver, British Columbia – January 31, 2024 – VanadiumCorp Resource Inc. (TSX-V: VRB) (FSE: NWNA) (OTC:

VRBFF) ("VanadiumCorp" or the "Company") is a Canadian critical minerals company focused on the renewable energy

storage space facilitating the global energy transition. Our electrolytes will be used in the supply chain for the Vanadium

Flow Battery (“VFB”) systems.

VanadiumCorp has recently established an office in Frankfurt am Main to facilitate the sales of vanadium electrolyte to

the European energy storage market and to evaluate potential electrolyte production locations in Germany and other

parts of the European Union. As part of this effort, the Company is conducting a scoping study to evaluate constructing

an electrolyte plant in Germany.

The proposed operation aims to produce 4 million litres of vanadium electrolyte annually. This would contribute to the

European energy market by providing 76 MWh of energy storage using VFB technology every year. To ensure that the

proposed project is sustainable and cost-effective, the company is conducting a Life Cycle Cost analysis with the

objective of locating an industrial site that can offer favourable synergies to the Company’s operations. Additionally,

the Company is actively seeking a suitable partner(s) in the EU to support its proposed activities in the region.

The new Vanadiumcorp office is in the financial district at Große Gallusstraße 16-18 Frankfurt, Germany.

About Long Duration Energy Storage and Vanadium Electrolyte

Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) is critical for decarbonizing the electrical grid and energy shifting. The VFB is a

unique technology that can operate indefinitely with inexpensive maintenance. Electrolytes are the most significant

cost component of the VFB energy storage system.

VanadiumCorp Resource Inc. seeks to produce a reliable stream of high-quality vanadium electrolytes for the

expanding international market for long-duration Vanadium Flow Batteries (VFB). The Company's initial

manufacturing facility is based in Val-des-Sources, Québec. Stable, long-term access to vanadium feedstock for the

production of electrolytes is assured, success-contingent on developing our wholly owned vanadium-titanium-iron

mineral deposits, including our flagship Lac Doré deposit near Chibougamau, Québec.

statements, including, without limitation, the ability to acquire the necessary permits and authorizations to advance

the Lac Doré property to the production stage, the ability to add to existing resources at Lac Doré through drilling, the

costs associated with the development and operation of its properties. These assumptions and estimates are made in

light of forecasts and conditions that are considered relevant and reasonable based on available information and

current circumstances. A number of risk factors may cause actual results, level of activity, performance or results of

such exploration and/or mine development to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-

looking statements, including, without limitation, whether such discoveries will result in commercially viable

quantities of such mineralized materials, the ability to modify project parameters as plans continue to be refined, the

ability to execute planned future exploration and drilling programs, the need for additional financing to continue

exploration and development efforts, changes in general economic, market and business conditions, and other risks
