VR RESOURCES REPORTS COPPER-MOLY-SILVER INTERVALS WITHIN CONTINUOUS
MINERALIZATION OVER 601 AND 709 METRE INTERSECTIONS AT NEW BOSTON
NR-24-16
Sept 10, 2024, Vancouver, BC: VR Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: VRR, FSE: 5VR; OTCQB: VRRCF), the "Company", or “VR”,
has received all geochemical data from its recently completed drill program at the New Boston porphyry copper -
moly-silver project in Nevada.
Two reconnaissance drill holes were completed for a total of 1,310 metres on the eastern end of the polymetallic
porphyry-skarn mineral system exposed on surface at New Boston over a strike length of 3 – 4 kilometres. The two
holes test the East Zone conductor identified in a state -of-the-art 3D array DCIP survey completed in 2023, along
two different structural pathways for hydrothermal fluids.
From VR’s CEO, Justin Daley
“Having logged every inch of both reconnaissance drill holes into the East Zone conductor, the intensity of veining
and alteration and the potential in this large, fertile polymetallic system was most striking. Broad, continuous low-
grade mineralization through the entirety of each hole is underscored by local grade intensity of copper, moly and
silver in skarn mineralization of completely recrystallized limestone. Finally, New Boston is dynamic, with multiple
phases of monzonite porphyry in both holes showing distinct mineralization and potential across the GW trend.
We know what to do next . The porphyry intrusions of the East Zone conductor plunge westerly towards the GW
fold structure in the center of the property , with copper-bearing gossans occurring at surface, and evident at the
top of our drill holes in the East Zone bowl. The IP anomaly at Jeep Mine is cored by increasing conductivity at
depth; the Jeep Mine and East Zone conductivity features are modeled to have a common source associated with
the central GW fault system. Why? Because mineralized monzonite porphyry is predominant in both of our drill
holes down plunge and grade increases steadily in hole 2 as it approaches the central GW structure.
To that end, we have scoped an MT survey to augment our DCIP survey completed in 2023 in order to give us a
more complete picture of where the mineralized porphyry intrusions appear to coalesce below Jeep and GW. The
exploration model and guide for follow-up drilling is summarized in the DCIP profile in Figure 1.”
Continuous geochemical sampling of drill core was completed across both holes. Summary graphic logs are shown
in Figure 2. Key findings include:
• Continuous hydrothermal mineralization and potassic alteration starting at surface.
o All 563 samples across 601 m (1,972 ft) in Hole 001 have hydrothermal mineralization. Copper
averages 0.05% with max 0.60%, and 1.0 g/t Ag with up to 14 g/t, & 76 ppm Mo on average.
o All 620 samples across 709 m (2,326 ft) in Hole 002 have hydrothermal mineralization, Copper
averages 0.07% with max 0.50%, and 1.5 g/t Ag with up to 32.7 g/t, & 35 ppm Mo on average.
• Copper-moly-silver mineralization in limestone host rock.
o 48m @ 0.11% Cu, 115 ppm Mo & 1.55 g/t Ag from 0 m (surface) in Hole 001 (photo in Figure 3).
o 117.6m @ 0.10% Cu, 118 ppm Mo & 1.9 g/t Ag from 1 m in Hole 002.
o 98m @ 0.12% Cu, 24 ppm Mo & 2.3 g/t Ag from 441 m in Hole 002. (photo in Figure 4)

Technical Information
Summary technical and geological information for the Company’s various exploration properties including New
Boston is available at the Company’s website at www.vrr.ca.
VR submits all surface grab samples and/or drill core samples collected from Nevada -based exploration projects
for geochemical analysis to the ALS Global (“ALS”) laboratory in Reno, Nevada. Sample preparation is completed
in Reno. Analytical work is completed at the ALS laboratories located in Vancouver, BC., including ICP-MS analyses
for base metals and trace elements, and gold determinati on by atomic absorption assay. Analytical results are
subject to industry-standard and NI 43-101 compliant QAQC sample procedures, including the systematic insertion
of sample duplicates, blanks and certified reference material (CRM) done both externally on the project site by the
Company and internally at the laboratory by ALS, as described by ALS.
Technical information for this news release has been prepared in accordance with the Canadian regulatory
requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101. Justin Daley, P.Geo., President & CEO and a non-independent
Qualified Person oversees and/or participates in all aspects of the Company’s mineral exploration projects, and
the content of this news release has been reviewed on behalf of the Company by the Executive Chairman, Dr.

About the New Boston Property
Location
New Boston is within the Walker Lane mineral belt and structural province in west -central Nevada. More
specifically, it is within the co-spatial belts of Jurassic - and Cretaceous-aged copper and moly porphyry deposits,
including the Yerington camp to the northwest and the Hall deposit to the southeast.
New Boston is located in the Garfield Range in Mineral County, and is approximately 150 km southeast of Reno.
Vegetation is sparse in the range; outcrop or colluvium predominate on the property itself, with quaternary cover
present to the east in the Soda Spring valley.
The property location facilitates cost-effective, year-round exploration. Access is from the nearby town of Luning,
located just 5 km to the east on State Highway 95 which connects Reno and Las Vegas. The property is criss-crossed
by a myriad of historic trails and roads which are driveable from the highway.
Description
The New Boston property is large. It consists of 77 claims in one contiguous block approximately 1.5 x 3 km in size
and covering 583 hectares in total (1,441 acres). It covers the entir e along-strike and down -dip extent of the
polymetallic Cu-Mo-Ag sheeted and stockwork veins east of the Blue Ribbon skarns on the westernmost end of the
porphyry-skarn system exposed on surface across a 3 - 4 km strike.
The property is on federal land administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). There are no state or
federal land use designations, or privately -owned land which impede access to the property; nor is the property
within the BLM’s broadly defined area of sage grouse protection.
The property is owned 100% by VR. There are no underlying annual lease payments; nor are there any joint venture
or back-in interests. The vendor of the property retains a royalty.

metals in Nevada, USA, and Ontario, Canada, and more recently, Canada’s newest discovery of a diamond-
bearing kimberlite pipe at its Northway project. VR applies modern exploration technologies and leverages in-
house experience and expertise in greenfields exploration to large-footprint mineral systems in underexplored
areas/districts. The foundation of VR is the proven track record of its Board in early-stage exploration, discovery
and M&A. The Company is financed for its mineral exploration and corporate obligations. VR owns its properties
outright and evaluates new opportunities on an ongoing basis, whether by staking or acquisition.
