In separate news, the Company is awaiting feedback from Department of Energy (DOE) on its review of the two grant applications the Company has submitted for the Company's Carlin Vanadium Project. One grant application is for a US$300 million grant submission to the DOE and its Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains (MESC) for new Commercial-scale Separation, Processing, and Recovery of Battery Critical Minerals (non-Lithium) projects for which the Carlin Vanadium Project Processing Plant construction may qualify for. This larger funding opportunity is part of the second round of funding by the DOE of approximately $3.5 billion to be made available for battery materials processing and battery manufacturing grants. The second grant application is for a US$3 million from the DOE and its Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) for RD&D bench and pilot scale funding for the Carlin Vanadium Project. This specific funding opportunity pertains to an earlier stage of technical work to assist advancing metallurgical testing for the Carlin Vanadium Project that would become part of a Prefeasibility study.

Thirdly, the Company has been actively scanning for and reviewing potential selective gold acquisitions in Nevada over the last 4 months to add to the Company's gold portfolio in an environment of elevating gold price. This review is headed by Dave Mathewson, Company Director, Geological Consultant and accomplished Nevada gold mine finder. Mr. Mathewson is only considering projects for the Company that have regional scale gold system potential of the Carlin Gold-type or Bonanza high-grade gold vein-type. The Company's geological team is currently in Elko, Nevada initiating summer field work and planning on its Dobbin and CVN projects and meeting with property vendors.
