Vortex Energy talks technical work at Robinsons River

Executive Summary

• Vortex Energy Corp. released a year-in-review summary of technical milestones achieved in 2025 across its project portfolio, including the Robinsons River salt project and the Fire Eye uranium project.
• The company announced the adjournment of its Annual General Meeting (AGM) from January 20, 2026, to February 13, 2026, due to a lack of quorum at the original date.
• Exploration plans for 2026 focus on integrating 2025 laboratory and ambient noise tomography (ANT) results into updated subsurface models for the Robinsons River project and refining target priorities for the Fire Eye project.

Key Details

• Robinsons River Project (Newfoundland and Labrador):
  • 2025 activities included collaboration with the University of Alberta to characterize the salt system for underground energy storage.
  • Technical work included mineralogical/petrological studies, X-ray diffraction (XRD) testing, porosity/permeability measurements, and geomechanical investigations using triaxial testing on CT-scanned samples.
  • Fieldwork for a low-impact ambient noise tomography (ANT) program was completed to support the development of a 3D seismic profile of the salt dome geometry.
  • 2026 priorities involve integrating 2025 lab and ANT results into an updated subsurface model, completing ANT processing/interpretation, and merging with existing geophysical data to guide potential drill planning.
• Fire Eye Project (Saskatchewan):
  • 2025 focus was on validating historical uranium showings and ranking priority targets using modern geophysical data.
  • Late 2024 data was combined with previous datasets to follow up on targets from the 2022 airborne geophysical survey and ground-truth two Saskatchewan Mineral Deposit Index (SMDI) uranium occurrences.
  • 2026 work will refine target priorities using latest observations and design follow-up field evaluation.
• AGM Adjournment:
  • Original AGM date: January 20, 2026.
  • New AGM date: February 13, 2026, at 10 a.m. Vancouver time.
  • Location: Offices of legal counsel, Borden Ladner Gervais LLP, Suite 1200, 200 Burrard St., Vancouver, B.C.
  • Record date for the adjourned AGM remains December 16, 2025.
  • Reason for adjournment: Lack of quorum at the originally scheduled meeting.

Notable Quotes

• "Two thousand twenty-five was an important year of technical progress on our project portfolio. With the field component of the ANT program completed at Robinsons and our research collaboration continuing to generate valuable insight, we are focused on integrating these data sets into a clearer subsurface understanding that can support disciplined planning for the next stage of evaluation." — Paul Sparkes, Chief Executive Officer
