VANCOUVER, British Columbia, October 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ – C2C Metals Corporation(CSE: CTOC) (OTCQB: CTCGF) (“Company” or “C2C”) announced today the acquisition of five (5) uranium vanadium (“UV”) properties (the “Properties”) comprising approximately 5,400 acres (~8.4 sq mi) located in Colorado part of the fertile Uravan mining district. Uravansky mining district Utah And Colorado Home to the Uravan Mineral Belt, a 70-mile (110-kilometer) zone of UV deposits in Colorado And Utah with a history of 80 million pounds of uranium and over 400 million pounds of vanadium production since 1945. Targets were selected based on historical information obtained from previous exploration activities, indicating that specific targets hosted either drilling operations that identified historically estimated uranium and vanadium mineral resources or areas specifically targeted for drilling by historical operators*.

Properties

Eula Belle – 31 claims in the western part Montrose Countycovering most of the historic Youla Belle Mine. Union Carbide Corp. reports. The 1989 Eula Belle Reserve (“UCC”) indicates historically* estimated mineral reserves.¹ weighing 43,900 tons containing 219,900 pounds of uranium₃ABOUT₈ (“uranium”) at an average grade of 0.25% and 790,200 lb V.₂ABOUT₅(“vanadium”) at 0.90%. UCC has estimated additional potential resources for Eula Belle at 37,000 tonnes, including 135,000 lb U.₃ABOUT₈ at 0.25% and 666,000 lbs V.₂ABOUT₅ at 0.90%. UCC records show that Eula Belle was the leading producer of uranium from hundreds of Uranium mines, with reserves of 1,598,000 pounds. You₃ABOUT₈at 0.248%, recovered in 1962-1978.

¹ Union Carbide’s (“UCC” or “Umetco”) Mining Reserves class for the Uravana UV deposits is specifically defined in the 1985 Resource and Reserve Estimation Manual as “The following reserve definitions are to be used in calculating Uravana UV Reserves on the Colorado Plateau: “An estimate of the amount of mineralized material that can be mined and processed at current costs, taking into account mining dilution, mining, and technological recovery.” Additionally, Union Carbide defines “Potential Resources” as: “An estimate based on a regional geological forecast of the amount of mineralized material assigned to areas that have not been tested but which appear to have the potential to produce reserves. The property being assessed is controlled by Umetco Minerals and the geology, geometry, environment and potential economics of the potential find are believed to be favorable.”

Mama Whitney Expansion – 5 claims in Montrose County adjacent to or near Department of Energy (“DOE”) sites (Non-C2C DOE Uranium Reserve Blocks) C-SR-21 and C-SR-23, and as past, producing “Mama Whitney” and other historical mines. The claims are located in areas identified as having high potential for additional discoveries, as shown on UCC’s historical favorability maps, and represent an expansion of C2C’s existing Mum-Whitney project.

Northern – 10 claims, per San Miguel Countyadjacent to the C-SR-15-A DOE Tract, including adjacent UCC-defined favorability areas. The east-west direction of the inferred UV mineral resources, identified by the U.S. Department of Energy’s C-SR-15 and C-SR-15A tracts and owned by C2C’s competitors, extends westward through the Norther Property.

Hilling patch – 80 claims per San Miguel County which are distributed within 4 separate areas located above the 1984 UCC planned (page 84) but never drilled targets and other favorable zones identified by the UCC. C2C’s claims overlap in part with the U.S. Department of Energy’s C-SR-12 Track. When first leased, the Department of Energy site initially housed a uranium reserve of 180,000 pounds of uranium.₃ABOUT₈.

Dulaney Expansion – 73 claims per San Miguel County and is a promising project adjacent to C2C’s Dulaney project. The Dulaney Extension is strategically located: (a) adjacent to DOE Route C-SR-11; (b) in the area of former extractive mines, and; (c.) partially overlying and surrounded by favorable areas as reported by the USGS (Bell, 1953).²
