About Aventis Energy Inc.

Aventis Energy is a mineral exploration company dedicated to the development of strategic projects composed of battery, base and precious metals in stable jurisdictions. The company is working to advance its Corvo uranium and Sting copper projects.

The Corvo uranium property has historical drill holes that intersected multiple intervals of uranium mineralization, notably along a strike length of 800 metres between historical drill holes TL-79-3 (0.116 per cent triuranium octoxide over 1.05 metres) and TL-79-5 (0.065 per cent U3O8 over 0.15 m). High-grade uranium at surface was discovered at the Manhattan showing (with outcrop samples grab samples returning up to 8.10 per cent U3O8) and at the SMDI showing 2052 (0.137 per cent U3O8 and 2,300 parts per million thorium).

The Sting copper project covers approximately 3,700 hectares and recently had results of 54.8 m at 0.32 per cent Cu starting at a depth of 27.0 m, with higher-grade intervals including six samples (greater-than-or-equal-to-0.5-metre length) ranging from 0.96 per cent to 5.43 per cent Cu. High-grade samples include 0.5 m at 2.85 per cent Cu and 0.5 m at 1.92 per cent Cu with an additional broader interval of 31.1 m at 0.27 per cent Cu.
