VanadiumCorp Completes Rock Chip Sampling Program at its Lac Dore Vanadium-Iron-Titanium Project; 53 Samples Submitted to AGAT Laboratories for Analysis

VanadiumCorp Resource Inc. (VRB) has completed a rock chip sampling program at its wholly-owned Lac Doré Vanadium-Iron-Titanium Project, located in the Chibougamau Mining District of Québec. The company collected a total of 53 samples from targeted prospective sectors within the property's principal anorthosite and gabbro units, which host vanadiferous magnetite horizons. The objective of the program was to update geological interpretations and prioritize future exploration activities.
Samples have been submitted to AGAT Laboratories in Val-d'Or, Québec, an independent accredited analytical laboratory, for multi-element analysis focusing on vanadium, iron, and titanium. The analytical work utilizes industry-standard methods, including ICP-OES and ICP-MS determinations following appropriate sample digestion. Selected samples exhibiting elevated values may undergo additional testing via sodium peroxide (Na₂O₂) fusion methods. To ensure data integrity, the program included the systematic insertion of certified reference materials, blanks, and duplicate samples into the sample stream.
Kristien Davenport, President, CEO and Director of VanadiumCorp, commented on the initiative: "Lac Doré remains the cornerstone of our critical minerals strategy, and this program adds modern, systematic sample coverage to a property with a long exploration history. The 53 rock chip samples collected will help us refine our geological interpretation of the vanadium-iron-titanium horizons and focus our next phase of work on the highest-priority sectors."
The results from the Lac Doré sampling are pending and will be used to refine geological models and target areas. The program was overseen by Ms. Suzie Tremblay, P.Geo. (OGQ No. 10664), Vice President of Explo-Logik Inc., who serves as the Qualified Person for the project.
In addition to the Lac Doré update, VanadiumCorp reported that it completed a 314-sample soil geochemical survey at its Lac Laura Gold-Copper Property on August 18, 2026. Results from the Lac Laura survey are also pending.
