  Vulcan Minerals Inc.   Appoints Salt Expert to Technical Advisory Committee

St. John's Newfoundland and Labrador - Vulcan Minerals Inc. ("the Company" - "Vulcan" TSX-
V:VUL) announces that it has appointed Mr. Rowland Howe of Ontario, Canada to the Company's
Technical Advisory Committee.

Mr. Howe is a Chartered Engineer, a qualified mining engineer and mine manager with over 35 years of
progressive leadership experience in mining operations. He started his career in the British coal industry
and moved on to Imperial Chemical Industries at their Salt Mine in the UK. Rowland moved to Canada in
1995 to take on the role as Mine Manager at the Goderich Salt Mine in Ontario owned by a major player
in the North American Salt industry. He oversaw the expansion of that mine from approximately 3.5
million tonnes per year to 7.5 million tonnes per year making it the world's largest salt mine. Long
associated with the Ontario mining industry he also served as a board member of the Ontario Mining
Association. Rowland later worked in a strategic engineering role for his employer delivering key projects
across the company's divisions before retiring in November 2016. He has continued in the role of
President of the Goderich Port Management Corporation while acting as an independent consultant
offering strategic and leadership services. Rowland is known as a persuasive and energetic leader of
people and an inspirational engineer.

The Technical Advisory Committee currently includes Mr. Bob Kelly an experienced mining professional
and a former Vice President of Teck Resources Limited and Mr. Sean O'Brien a former Senior Geologist
with the Geological Survey of Newfoundland and Labrador.

The Company has created a balanced approach to mineral exploration and development by directly
exploring for precious and base metals while indirectly pursuing industrial mineral opportunities through
its subsidiary Red Moon Resources Inc. (Red Moon). This strategy provides shareholders with exposure to
both the high impact potential for metal discoveries and the sustainability of industrial mineral production.
The discovery and development of industrial minerals generally involves less geological risk and shorter
timelines to production with lower capital costs than the development of metallic/precious mineral
deposits. The greater probability of cash flow from industrial mineral development will provide a measure
of stability through the extreme volatility of the commodities cycle. Consistent with this strategy the
Company has created the Technical Advisory Committee to provide it with the input from a variety of

 industry professionals to broaden and enhance its decision making.

Commenting on the appointment of Mr. Howe, the President of the Company and Red Moon stated "We
are very pleased to attract a seasoned mining engineer of Rowland's experience. The fact that he has
joined our team is a timely endorsement of the Captain Cook salt project in western Newfoundland. We
need the type of skills that Rowland possesses as we advance this project through the feasibility stage and
anticipate retaining his skills on a more engaging consultancy basis as we move this project towards
production."

Vulcan owns approximately 67% of the common shares of Red Moon Resources Inc. (TSX-V:RMK) and a
royalty on the Captain Cook salt project in western Newfoundland. Red Moon's projects include the
development of the Captain Cook salt deposit and Ace gypsum deposit in western Newfoundland and the
Black Bay nepheline syenite project in southern Labrador. In 2016 Red Moon received from APEX
Geoscience Ltd. a maiden mineral resource assessment report with respect to the salt deposit completed
pursuant to National Instrument 43-101 requirements. The resource estimate concluded that using a
95.0% cut-off grade for sodium chloride, the Captain Cook Salt Resource Estimate is classified as "Inferred"
and demonstrates that there is 908 million tonnes of high purity halite (96.9% salt) for 880 million in-situ
tonnes of salt.

The Company has granted 150,000 stock options to a consultant and an officer of the Company exercisable
at $0.10 for a term of five years pursuant to certain vesting requirements.
