VanadiumCorp Provides Overview of Lac Laura Gold Property
VanadiumCorp Provides Overview of Lac Laura Gold Property
Vancouver, British Columbia –TheNewswire – October 20, 2025 –VanadiumCorp
Resource Inc.(TSX-V: VRB | FSE: NWNA | OTC: VRBFF) (“VanadiumCorp” or the
“Company”) is pleased to provide an overview of its wholly owned Lac Laura Property,
located in Lévy Township near Chapais, Québec. The property comprises 39 mineral claims
totaling 550.65 hectares, all in good standing and compliant with provincial regulations.
Strategically located adjacent to the historic Cooke Mine, now part of the Opemiska
Copper-Gold Project operated by XXIX Metal Corp. (formerly QC Copper and Gold Inc.), Lac
Laura lies within the prolific Chapais Mining District, a region hosting numerous copper-
gold vein systems and volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) lenses.
Historical exploration conducted by Minnova Inc. (a former subsidiary of Falconbridge)
included geophysical surveys, surface stripping, channel sampling,
undergrounddevelopment, and diamond drilling.
Historical Estimate (1997 – Minnova Inc.)
A historical, non-NI 43-101-compliant estimate prepared in 1997 reported approximately
163,295 tonnes grading 5.83 g/t gold in the 113 North Zone. This estimate is historical in
nature and not compliant with NI 43-101. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work
to classify the estimate as a current mineral resource, and the Company is not treating the
estimate as current. Further drilling, sampling, and geological modeling will be required to
verify or update this information. Investors are cautioned not to rely on these figures.
VanadiumCorp acquired the Lac Laura Property in 2007 and completed limited drilling
between 2007 and 2012. In 2020, CSA Global Mining Industry Consultants conducted a
data review and outlined recommendations for further exploration. At the time,
VanadiumCorp prioritized its vanadium-iron-titanium (VTM) portfolio, advancing the Lac
Doré and Iron-T Projects.
Lac Laura Property – Strategic Highlights
• Located within the Chibougamau–Chapais mining cluster with established
infrastructure (Highway 113, rail, power).
• Adjacent to the historic Cooke Mine (now Opemiska Copper-Gold Project).
• Covers favorable geology of the Blondeau Formation and Bourbeau Intrusive Suite.
• Historical (non-NI 43-101) estimate by Minnova Inc. (1997): ~163,000 t @ 5.83 g/t Au
– not current and not reliable until verified.
• High-grade historical grab samples: 128.5 g/t Au, 113 g/t Ag, 2.61 % Cu.
• Trenching and underground development along shear-vein systems.
These historical figures are provided for reference only and should not be interpreted as
current resources, reserves, or economic projections. The property remains at the
exploration stage with no current NI 43-101-compliant resource.
Going Forward
With gold prices at multi-year highs, the Company has initiated a 2025–2026 evaluation
program to compile and reinterpret legacy data and design a work plan for 2026 as part of
its broader asset optimization strategy.
