The Company reports the discovery of up to 4.6 kg/t of scandium, up to 417.7 kg of niobium, up to 323.1 kg/t of tantalum and up to 495.6 kg/t of titanium. The four samples contained in black sands were taken within an area measuring approximately 500m x 1,500m. Sample M-IK2-2018-2 was taken 280m South-Southwest of M-IK2-2018-1; sample M-IK2-2018-4 was taken 400m East of M-IK2-2018-1; and sample M-IK2-2018-3 was taken 1,113m East of M-IK2-2018-2. A detailed follow-up grid sampling program is being planned and will be initiated very soon. For all results, please refer to the tables below.

Metal Sc2O3 (kg) Nb2O5 (%) Ta2O5 (%) TiO2 (%)
Sample M-IK2-2018-01 0.0 41.77 32.31 4.55
Sample M-IK2-2018-02 1.9 34.02 19.19 27.88
Sample M-IK2-2018-03 3.5 26.18 8.74 48.34
Sample M-IK2-2018-04 4.6 24.74 9.10 49.56

The sampling campaign was led by Colombian geologists and mining engineers, who were hired directly by the Company. The samples were analyzed at the Centre of Mineral Technology in Thetford Mines, Quebec.

Applications of scandium, tantalum, niobium and titanium: Scandium is used in aerospace industry because of its low density, high melting point and strength. It is often alloyed or mixed with other metals, typically aluminum, to form a super-hard, lightweight, and durable material for building aircrafts. Tantalum is used to manufacture batteries for electric cars, as well as almost every kind of electronic device, including cell phones and computers. Niobium is used in high-grade structural steel while niobium superalloys are used for jet engines and heat resistant equipment. Titanium is also used for superalloys, principally in the aerospace industry for both airframes and engines, because of their low density and ability to withstand extremes of temperature.

All 4 metals are on the list of minerals deemed critical for the US national security and economy.
