VANCOUVER, April 1, 2019 - Vanadian Energy Corp. (the "Company") (TSXV: VEC), is pleased to announce the commencement of an exploration diamond drilling program on the Huzyk Creek Vanadium Property (the "Property") to follow up on a broad zone of vanadium mineralization encountered in a historic drill hole.
The initial drill hole will twin historic drill hole NIM-19 which encountered a broad zone of vanadium mineralization. Previous sampling in NIM-19 returned a total of 68 meters @ 0.14% V2O5 hosted within a sequence of graphitic meta-sediments associated with sulphides. Individual V2O5 values ranging from 0.04% to 0.6% over widths ranging from 0.3 to 1.25 meters were noted within this mineralized interval. Mineralization appears to be open down hole, with the new drilling planned to determine the width potential of the vanadium mineralization.
No other known historic drill holes have completed on this mineralized zone. At this time the strike, dip and the lateral extent of mineralization is not known. The Company plans to complete additional drilling along strike to determine the potential for additional vanadium mineralization along the geophysical conductor.
Under the terms of the Agreement with Rocas del Norte, the Company can earn an initial 49% interest in the Property by making staged payments over 3 years totalling $215,000 ($25,000 upon signing), issuing $180,000 of the Company's shares and completing $2,500,000 of exploration on the Property.
The Company can earn an additional 21% interest with a cash payment of $125,000 and the issuance of $50,000 of the Company's common shares to the Vendor, along with completing an additional $2,225,000 of exploration on the Property which will include a preliminary economic assessment (PEA) study.
The Company can earn the remaining 30% interest in the Property, for a total 100% interest, in the Huzyk Creek Project by completing a pre-feasibility study within 24 months of the 4th anniversary of the Agreement, along with a payment of $500,000 to the Vendor.
A National Instrument 43-101 geological report for the Huzyk Creek Property entitled 'Geological Report on the Huzyk Creek Property, Ponton Manitoba Region' has been prepared in connection with the Agreement and has been filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
