(“ValOre”; TSX‐V: VO; OTC: KVLQF; Frankfurt: KEQ0, “the Company”) today announced the commencement of a 4,500 metre (“m”) diamond drill program at ValOre’s 100% owned 59,483-hectare Angilak Property Uranium Project (“Angilak”), located in Nunavut Territory, Canada. “2022 RC drilling at the Dipole and J4 West targets intersected high-grade, near-surface, basement-hosted uranium, and immediate follow-up is warranted in the core drilling program,” stated ValOre’s VP of Exploration, Colin Smith. “Two diamond drill rigs are at Dipole, with the first rig already drilling, and the second to commence within the week. Down-dip and along-strike core holes will test extensions to highly radioactive RC intercepts, including 65,535 CPS at ~30 m vertical depth (Dipole) and 22,146 CPS at ~36 m vertical depth (J4 West)”. Angilak 2022 Diamond Drill Program Highlights: 4,500 m core drilling program to be conducted with 2 diamond drill rigs; Dipole target – 3,000 m planned in 16 holes; J4 West target – 1,500 m planned in 14 holes; Program goal is to incorporate drill results into future resource estimates. The 2022 Reverse Circulation (“RC”) drill program intersected near-surface radioactivity in 22 of 27 holes, with vertical depths of radioactive zones ranging from 7 to 110 metres, at the Dipole, Yat, and J4 West targets. Initial assay results from the completed RC drill program are expected in the first half of August, 2022.
