Vortex Energy Announces Plans for Ground Gravity Survey at the Robinsons
River Salt Project
Next Phase of Geophysical Work Advances Priority Targets Following August Technical Study
Vancouver, British Columbia, September 3, 2026 – Vortex Energy Corp. (CSE: VRTX) (OTC: VTECF) (FSE:
AA3) (“Vortex” or the “ Company”) is pleased to announce plans to undertake a targeted ground gravity
survey at its 100% -owned Robinsons River Salt Project (the “Project”), located approximately 35
kilometres south of Stephenville, Newfoundland and Labrador. The survey has been selected as the
Company’s next geophysical program at the Project.
The program builds upon the technical study results announced by the Company on August 6, 2026. That
study integrated the available geological, drilling, seismic and gravity information and identified
differences and remaining uncertainty among the existing interpretations. The planned survey is intended
to address gaps in the existing gravity dataset and provide additional spatial control in selected priority
areas. The new data will be integrated with the Project’s existing drilling, legacy seismic, airborne gravity,
Ambient Noise Tomography and geological information to further refine the subsurface model and support
the ranking of potential future drill targets. Gravity is non -unique exploration method that directly
measures the target ore’s gravity field and cannot independently confirm the presence, composition,
thickness or continuity of salt.
“We are pleased to move forward with a ground gravity survey at Robinsons River,” said Paul Sparkes, Chief
Executive Officer of Vortex. “This work will build on the recent technical study and provide additional
information as we continue to evaluate and advance the Project’s priority exploration targets.”
The Company is finalizing the survey area, station spacing, budget, schedule and permitting requirements
and will provide further details once the program design has been completed.

on the Company’s current beliefs or assumptions as to the outcome and timing of such future events. In
particular, this press release contains forward -looking information relating to, among other things, the
Company’s exploration plans at the Project.
Various assumptions or factors are typically applied in drawing conclusions or making the forecasts or
projections set out in forward -looking information, including, in respect of the forward -looking
information included in this press release, assumptions regarding the Company’s ability to execute on its
exploration plans, including that it will be successful in carrying out the planned drilling and that such
drilling will yield the expected information and the desired outcomes.
Although forward -looking information is based on the reasonable assumptions of the Company’s
management, there can be no assurance that any forward-looking information will prove to be accurate.
Forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which
may cause the actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward -looking information. Such
factors include, among other things, the risk that exploration at the Project does not proceed in the
manner and on the timeline currently contemplated, or at all; risks inherent in the exploration and
development of mineral deposits, including risks relating to receiving requisite permits and approvals,
changes in project parameters or delays as plans continue to be redefined, that mineral exploration is
inherently uncertain and that the results of mineral exploration may not be indicative of the actual
geology or mineralization of a project; and that mineral exploration may be unsuccessful or fail to achieve
the results anticipated by the Company, including as a result of factors beyond the Company’s control,
such as geological conditions. The forward-looking information contained in this release is made as of the
date hereof, and the Company not obligated to update or revise any forward -looking information,
