From VR’s CEO, Dr. Michael Gunning, “we are grateful for the interest out of Europe towards the lead order and anchor for
this financing, and from several core institutional shareholders and two directors who provided strong additional support.
Our existing $2m treasury was sufficient for G&A through 2021 and for the first pass drilling of the Amsel gold target planned
for this summer; the additional $1.5m successfully Closed for this financing will allow us to advance the Reveille silver-copper
project to first pass drilling in 2021 as well; the targets are ready subsequent to nearly-continuous exploration since last June,
and our planning is well underway for a state-of-the art 3D DCIP geophysical survey and Phase I of a two -phase RC drill
program which we intend to start next month, in mid-February. We are excited to pursue the upside potential of this drilling
in the near term, as we await our drill permit and drilling planned for this summer at Amsel.”
“I would like to sincerely thank all of our current and new shareholders who have supported this financing initiative and
exploration strategy for 2021. Ou r focus now is to translate the funding into execution on the ground towards the planned
IP geophysics and drilling at Reveille next month, and we look forward to providing future updates as our work proceeds.”
