"VanadiumCorp has constructed its first electrolyte plant in less than 12 months using mostly in-house technical staff.We look forward to our next phase of corporate development and commercial production enabled by the experience of our first plant. It has been my pleasure to work with the VanadiumCorp team on this stage of its development.”
The Company completed construction and commissioning of its Plant No. 1 in Val des Sources,
Batches produced to date in this demonstration-sized plant meet tight electrolyte specifications and high purity, vindicating our selection of electrolyzer technologies, like the new, larger facilities of
Market studies commissioned by the Company indicated a good demand for high purity electrolytes. However, as the Vanadium Flow Battery (VFB) market grows quickly, demand intensifies for the lowest transformation charge for the conversion of vanadium feedstocks to electrolyte for certain VFB applications. The Company will actively scope a chemical process to create a hybrid chemical/electrolyzer manufacturing design, or alternately a fully chemical process design, to meet the growing demand for lower conversion costs and to augment our premium product line.
About
The Company’s Plant No. 1 is in Val-des-Sources,
A remarkable transformation of the global energy landscape is underway as we shift toward renewable energy sources. Solar and wind energy sources are forecasted to dominate power generation. Yet, vast amounts of long-duration energy storage (LDES) are vital to time-shift and stabilize these variable energy sources. The Vanadium Flow Battery is the most mature of the LDES battery technologies. According to
To assure stable, long-term access to vanadium feedstocks for electrolyte manufacturing, the Company is developing novel hydrometallurgical processes to extract vanadium from the titanomagnetite deposits at its wholly owned Lac Doré property near

VanadiumCorp relies on a number of assumptions and estimates to make these forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the ability to acquire the necessary permits and authorizations to advance the Lac Doré property to the production stage, the ability to add to existing resources at Lac Doré through drilling, the costs associated with the development and operation of its properties. These assumptions and estimates are made in light of forecasts and conditions that are considered relevant and reasonable based on available information and current circumstances. A number of risk factors may cause actual results, level of activity, performance or results of such exploration and/or mine development to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, whether such discoveries will result in commercially viable quantities of such mineralized materials, the ability to modify project parameters as plans continue to be refined, the ability to execute planned future exploration and drilling programs, the need for additional financing to continue exploration and development efforts, changes in general economic, market and business conditions, and other risks outlined in VanadiumCorp's latest Annual Information Form under the heading "Risk Factors" and in its other public documents. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and such information is inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are difficult to predict and that may be beyond VanadiumCorp's control. Although VanadiumCorp has attempted to identify important risks and factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements, there may be other factors and risks that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements. In addition, all forward-looking statements in this press release are made as of the date of this press release.
