Vanadium One Iron Corp. Provides Corporate Update

As outlined in the press release dated June 7, 2021, the goal of the 2021 drill program is to upgrade a sufficient portion of the current Inferred Mineral Resources to the Measured and Indicated Categories to support at least a 20-year mine life as the basis for a feasibility study which is expected to commence later this year or early 2022. The drill program comprises up to 12,500 meters in 34 holes in the North Zone and 2,500 meters set aside for the South Zone. As reported in the compliant NI 43-101 Technical Report - Mineral Resource Estimate of the Mont Sorcier Project, Province of Quebec, Canada completed by CSA Global and dated June 25, 2021, the South Zone contains 113.5 Mt Indicated mineral resources at 30.9% Magnetite and 144 Mt Inferred resources at 24.9% Magnetite and the North Zone has 809.1 Mt inferred mineral resources at 34.2% Magnetite. The Technical report is available on SEDAR or on the Company website.

To date in 2021, over 4,000 meters have been completed in 10 drill holes in the North Zone and assays results are expected by mid-August. Visual examination and magnetic test (MPP) of the drill core to date supports the intersection of mineralized material as predicated by the current resource outline.

With respect to the environmental baseline work data gathering activities are continuing as part of the early stages of data collection for the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment process. The Company has engaged WSP Canada Inc. ("WSP") from Montreal to undertake these activities.

The Company continues to work with Glencore as part of the Financial Assistance and Offtake Agreements announced on May 12, 2021, to secure longer term funding in order to support the completion of a feasibility study on the Mont Sorcier project. Under the agreement, Glencore is to facilitate either directly or indirectly raising of US$8 million. Subsequent to the recent equity and debenture funding, Vanadium One is well funded to move forward aggressively to deliver on the next stage of the Mont Sorcier project development plan.

In addition, subsequent to approval by the Board of Directors at a meeting held of July 28, 2021 the Company notes it has filed its Q1/2021 Quarterly MD&A and Financial Statements on Sedar and that the Board of Directors approved the issuance of 1.9 million share purchase options to various Officers, Directors, Consultants and Advisors of the firm. The Options have a strike price of $0.22 per share and term of 2 years.
