CONFIRMATION DRILL PROGRAM TO COMMENCE AT LAC DORE VTM PROJECT

Vanadiumcorp Resource Inc. plans to commence a drill program at the company's 100-per-cent-owned Lac Dore vanadiferous titanomagnetite (VTM) project near Chibougamau, Que.

The Lac Dore project is adjacent to Blackrock Metals Inc.'s Southwest and Armitage vanadiferous titanomagnetite deposits, on which a 2014 feasibility study has been conducted and which are currently under development with the support of the Quebec government.

The Lac Dore project contains several zones of disseminated to massive vanadiferous titanomagnetite. Limited confirmation drilling carried out by the company in 2013 intersected several magnetite-bearing units (the so-called P2 and P3 layers) over a strike length of approximately one kilometre. These intersections have been previously reported and returned in situ magnetite grades of between 13.10 per cent and 43.78 per cent magnetite, in situ vanadium grades of between 0.05 per cent and 0.63 per cent V2O5, and magnetite vanadium contents of between 0.31 per cent and 1.69 per cent V2O5, as indicated in the attached table.

(Intersections reported from table 10.4 of Micon International Ltd.'s National Instrument 43-101 technical 
report dated Oct. 11, 2018.)

The company intends to implement a drill program aligned with recommendations from Micon International's NI 43-101 technical report on the company's Lac Dore VTM project dated Oct. 11, 2018. These recommendations included the drilling of 35 sections spaced 50 metres apart with minimum NQ-sized core. Drill holes are to be inclined toward the northwest, perpendicular to the dip of the magnetite-bearing layers. An estimated total of 16,000 metres of NQ drilling is expected during this program, which will include the Lac Dore East & West deposits held by the company.

The objective of the drilling is to validate the extensive historical drilling and trenching that were carried out on the property since 1958, and to confirm the extent and grade of vanadium, titanium and iron mineralization on the Lac Dore mining claims. Mineralized intersections will be tested using a combination of assays, Davis Tube tests and other magnetic tests to assess the head grades of vanadium, titanium and iron, as well as the magnetite proportions and the vanadium grades of the magnetites. The company aims to use the results of the drilling to estimate a mineral resource for the deposit.

Vanadiumcorp Resource plans to develop its 100-per-cent-owned Lac Dore and Iron-T vanadium-titanium-iron assets adjacent to the Blackrock Metals project. The Blackrock Metals project is currently in the process of being permitted with the intention to build a mine and mill to produce a vanadium-rich magnetite concentrate. Well-developed infrastructure at the nearby mining town of Chibougamau, including a 161-kilovolt hydro power at about two cents a kilowatt-hour, CN Rail Line, available water, local airport and a mining community of over 7,000 means that the Lac Dore project is well positioned to take advantage of the strong vanadium market driven by supply shortages and growing demand from the Chinese steel industry, as well as the growing use of vanadium in energy storage. The company is also developing its jointly owned Vanadiumcorp electrochem processing technology (VEPT), a novel chemical process invented by Dr. Francois Cardarelli that allows for the direct and sustainable recovery of vanadium, iron, titanium and silica from feedstocks such as vanadiferous titano-magnetite, iron ores and other industrial byproducts containing vanadium.
